Erotic Topic: Contraception choices abundant

Diverting the stork doesn’t have to be all about pills and condoms as long as you’re prepared to get down and dirty with a few tricks and little risk.

While we all may love those 10 extra minutes, hitting the snooze button actually sabotages what could be a full night of restful sleep.

According to an article from Health Magazine, “Skip the […]

Irresponsible, uninformed voters need not participate

It’s an issue that infects the entire nation and directly disturbs the quality of American democracy: irresponsible voting. A disconcerting amount of voters today do little to educate themselves on current political issues and the standpoints of the presidential candidates. Before checking the ballot, I urge voters to do fair research and think critically about […]

Practically everyone’s had them, but almost no one can explain them. Students, professors and other experts combined their knowledge to address the curiosity behind hiccups. What are they? What causes them? And, most importantly, how do you get rid of them? Biology professor Curt Walker said the “hic!” noise occurs in the throat when the […]
