Local dining choices for student budgets
(03/11/13 2:05am)
Much like the poem that sits at the base of the Statue of Liberty in New York harbor, I am asking Eastern Michigan University to send me their tired, poor and hungry student masses. I am here to rescue you—if only to provide a guide to good eats around Ypsilanti and Ann Arbor. I am Lorrie Mayzlin, a culinary arts and hospitality management student at neighboring Washtenaw Community College, set to transfer to EMU to finish a degree in restaurant management.

“Paper Mario” has made the leap to its first handheld console with “Paper Mario: Sticker Star” on the Nintendo 3DS.
Matt on Music: New Skrillex EP “Leaving”
(02/21/13 4:30am)
Sonny Moore, also known as Skrillex, is in a very convenient position in his career. He may not be making the most money in the music industry, he doesn’t have the most Facebook fans and he definitely isn’t the most critically acclaimed artist. Still, there are few musicians who are in the same spot he’s in; the spot where he can do practically whatever he wants because nobody’s going to change their mind about him.
Matt on Music: Christopher Owens’ solo debut “Lysandre”
(02/18/13 4:31am)
If you were to look at a list of my favorite instruments, you would see a lot of diversity. Saxophone and steel drum are my top two, and also high up on the list are the bass guitar, combo organ, violin and ukulele. What you won’t see on my list, however, is the flute. On Christopher Owens’ solo debut, “Lysandre,” the first sound heard is that of a flute. And I have never heard the instrument sound as horrendous as it does, opening this record.

‘The Host’ better than expected
(02/11/13 4:05am)
When it comes to the “Twilight” Saga, I’m a lukewarm fan. The plot was vaguely intriguing, the writing fairly compelling, the characters surprisingly relatable, but it wasn’t anything that blew my mind.

Sequel to ‘Fist of the North Star’ pretty good, but similar to original
(02/07/13 4:21am)
“Fist of the North Star: Ken’s Rage 2” is not a thinking man’s game. The game is available for Xbox 360, PS3 and Wii U, but the PS3 and Wii U versions are only available as digital downloads via their respective online services. I played the PS3 version of the game.

Classic ‘Tom Sawyer’ still relevant today
(01/24/13 4:44am)
Is classic literature relevant in today’s world? Yes. How are we to perceive the evolution of contemporary pieces if we are unable to accept, understand and appreciate their great-great-grandparents? Is classic literature relevant to a twenty-something college student in today’s world? Yes begets yes, begets yes.
Matt on Music: Wussy's 'Bernice Huff and son, Bill sings Popular Favorites'
(01/24/13 4:39am)
I make no secret about Wussy being my favorite band, possibly of all time and definitely right now. Every new release increases my admiration of them, even if it’s something as simple as an acoustic re-recording of their first album or a cover of Dusty Springfield’s “Breakfast in Bed.” They’re just fantastic, and have an almost inhuman ability to make magic happen during every performance.

‘Anarchy Reigns’ competent but forgettable
(01/17/13 1:31am)
“Anarchy Reigns” is a competently made but mediocre and forgettable niche game.
