It used to seem like no one talked about the Internet anymore, but the last week of events is likely to change that forever. Ten years ago, the Net was still young and barely recovering from a massive dotcom bust; no one had ever dreamed of an Internet with political pull because they were still trying to figure out how to make money from it. In the following years, websites like Myspace and Facebook started becoming even more popular with the Net Generation. The older this Internet-ingrained generation got, the more marketable the Internet became; by the end of the decade the Internet turned into a bastion of economic prosperity.

Technological advancement is generally a topic that is viewed with positive light throughout the population. Some People are naïve enough to think that advancements in technology only benefit society, whether that be by increasing efficiency or just by making life generally easier. There are many cases throughout history that refute this point though.  Take war as a general example.  Because of it, weapons capable of incredible destruction were created. Nuclear weapons being one of the first that comes to mind, not to mention the cold war which could have ended humanity as we know it.

As a female, I’ve found that most fellow young women suffer from the same questions universally. Does he notice my new hairstyle? Does he actually believe I enjoy watching him play video games? He didn’t text back yet; oh, I can’t double text him because then will I seem like a stalker? Truth is, guys probably won’t notice you switched from very berry lipstick to passion red. They don’t really care about small details like that; they just want you to look good (harsh, but c’mon it’s true). You can’t jump down their throat if they don’t notice your new shirt from Express right away; it just isn’t on their mind. When it comes to sex, however, guys do notice the small things and open up about the little pet peeves they find with their partners.

Anyone that is a student at Behrend will tell you without any hesitation that it is incredibly boring here on the weekends. A lot of factors can play into this problem. One large factor is that the majority of the student body goes back home on the weekends.

In the wake of a scandal which resulted in the loss of his job, early on Jan. 22, former coach Joe Paterno lost his life to lung cancer. As quickly as Paterno was dismissed from his 61-year position as head coach for reasons he admittedly struggled to understand, the terminal disease spread rapidly throughout his body until his death, just 65 days following diagnosis.
