I, like many Canadians, get a lot of information on TV news broadcasts. I am aware that we are dependent on various news stations like PGTV, BBC, CBC, and even CTV. I have noticed that, yes, there is a lot of controversy surrounding green house gasses. I remember one politician suggesting that the ‘Clean Air Act’ is really a sign of them being ‘in bed’ with industry that contributes a lot of green house gasses. If you follow my news stories, you’ll probably have noted that I have a slant towards Copyright and technology related issues. So I’ve noticed something that is missing from the air waves – not just a little facts or tidbits of information, but an entire controversial issue entirely. That issue is Ministry of Heritage getting a lobbyist to set up a fund raiser right before a related policy reform is being brought up.

Greetings everyone.

With exams and final paper dates barreling down on everyone, it's cramming season again, at UNBC. Cramming season during the fall semester walks hand in hand with the cold snap of winter, which leads many to stay indoors, studying or doing whatever you people do when you're not studying or working. Me, I like sleep.

Without a hint of adieu, here is this column’s target: patronizing people. To be specific: people who tell you that you have to write ideas about what other older and dead people think, whilst claiming that students are not at a point in their careers to be saying anything new because someone else has probably already said it.

...Bush looked like an idiot, Canadians smoked more pot, and I didn’t really care. All in all you could have called this year 2005 and I don’t think anyone would have noticed.

When I first moved to Prince George from Vancouver two years ago, I had no sense of the town's personality. It seemed like some backwater collection of houses and industries with no real history. Thankfully, this year, I got to bond with the people of Prince George and discover the issues that affect this town that no one in Vancouver can discern.

I am just about to finish my undergrad from UNBC and there are many things I’ve learned along the way through my 4.5 years as a student. Less notable are such gems as lockers could have been really useful to me if I had rented one, and the cafeteria smells a lot better than it really ends up tasting. There, however, is one all-important, crucial bit of information that I must share with people and that is this: buy cheap food

     This year marked new advances in making the PC to Mac switch even easier. Upon the release of Apple’s “Boot Camp” software, Mac users now have the capability to run Windows XP (and possibly, on Intel based Macs, Vista as well), without going through buggy, early stage PC emulators. The age of the ideal computer has finally come...that is to say, games that DON’T suck coupled with freedom from virus-induced paranoia. Whether Apple is selling out to Microsoft or merely making an intelligent move towards a future without platform wars, Mac gamers (victims of oxymoron or not) should rejoice. I am.
