Get Your Gun
ARMED: Murder of six in an Arizona church prompts congressman to encourage the right to bear arms.
ZotShots (Jan. 18-23)
The New University staff photographers’ coverage of the Martin Luther King, Jr. symposium and more!
Antourage Insider: Bren Events is the New Staples Center
The win against Long Beach State was hands down the best win of the year, and hopefully a win that UC Irvine can use to carry momentum forward. After a tough stretch of losing six out of seven, UCI is all of a sudden on a nifty three-game winning streak.
Put Down That Tablet
Tablets and smart phones. Ah, the fresh wave of innovative products we just have to have. With the introduction of the iPad last year, Apple kicked off a new decade of technology, already lush with smart phones, 3-D televisions and controller-less game consoles.

It felt as though the world had completely lost its mind — the zodiac calendar changed and whatever your original sign was probably fell victim to this awful tilt of the Earth’s axis. Gone were the standard 12 zodiac constellations and, with it, our sanity.
Careers and Defying Parental Control
Twenty years ago, I entered this world with no idea of what I wanted to be when I grew up. Sometime after that, I wanted to become a Pokemon master. At age 11, I was waiting for my letter from Hogwarts so I could grow up to be a wizard. Today, I’m working toward a career in journalism. And for some reason, out of all those career dreams, my mother objected to my career as a journalist the most.
The 32A Story: A is for Awesome!
If my boobs could talk, they would probably say many things. For one, they would probably tell me how much they hated being surrounded by the padding from my high school prom dress. They would probably tell me how uncomfortable it is when popcorn gets stuck down there during a movie. They would probably scream how much they hate Victoria’s Secret because they feel that the saleswomen laugh at them. But most of all, I think they would tell me how hurt they’ve felt that I disliked them for so long, because after all, they probably have feelings too.
