In a genre skewed with many movies reproducing the same thing over and over again, Paranormal Activity gives us a breath of fresh air in the horror movie genre. From the very beginning of the movie until the very last second, movie goers find themselves entranced with the true horror writer/director Oren Peli brings to the screen.

undeniably unique musician in the prime of his career. John Mayer had a definitive acoustic style since his first album, a sound which has been emulated by other musicians trying to get a hit like "Your Body is a Wonderland" and "Daughters." With his last album, Continuum, he molded a distinctive blend of blues, rock, hip-hop, and jazz; with Battle Studies, he has perfected that sound, and even blended both of his signature sounds.

It would be an understatement to say that John Mayer's newest album "Battle Studies" has left fans wondering "what happened?"
I think it's safe to say that fans have been exposed to a few different types of Mayer. There is the "Your Body Is a Wonderland," and "Neon" Mayer, who writes pop songs that attract teenyboppers from across the country.

Saturday will be the first, and perhaps the only, time that UConn football takes on the storied Notre Dame Fighting Irish.
While a multiple-game series was in the works earlier this year, it looks like any future games between the Huskies and the Irish are mere speculation.

Ivy League schools are inundated with ads for potential egg donors-women who for a considerable sum of money donate their eggs to a couple for in vitro fertilization. What happens once they sign on? And what role do the fertility clinics who match the donors to the recipients play? A well-dressed couple in their early 30s walk into a building that from the outside has all the settings of a corporate office but from the inside looks more like a clinic.

In the early morning hours of Nov. 16, 1989, government troops besieged the campus of the University of Central America (UCA) in San Salvador. Before dawn, the crack troops of the U.S. trained Atlacatl Battalion barricaded the entrances, blew down the gates, and sacked the modest residences of the Jesuit faculty, brutally murdering six Jesuit priests, their cook, and her 16 year-old daughter. The Jesuits were dragged from their beds, shot execution style in the head, their brains spread on the sidewalks as a grim reminder to the Salvadoran people of the consequences of critical thinking and social engagement. The two women, Elba and Celina Ramos, were murdered alongside their priests that night, for there could be no witnesses left to testify.
