Ralph Nader decides to point out that Barack Pinto Beans Obama talks white. Nader, who doesn’t really have a career these days save for the quadrennial 15 minutes of fame in which he complains we don’t pay attention to him, doesn’t really have a need to view this as a career-ending move. Obama responds by saying: [...]

We also loved her in Splash , and Diff'rent Strokes. but for me, her most memorable role was probably as Louise Lasser's mother in Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman. Her Southern charm, strawberry blonde hair and loveable...

This week, Woolies announced that it was going to stop selling CD singles . Should this be a big deal? Given that the shop in question was the UK’s biggest singles retailer, it’s being seen as another nail in the coffin of the physical single.

Lock-down mode once again at the halls for this Friday brings the dreaded, hastily anticipated, and supposedly most difficult of all first year exams – the brain and behaviour (and locomotor) exam. Cranial nerves, spinal tracts, brain anatomy and infinite fact have been crammed into our cortexes over the past eight weeks.
