If modern architecture's clean lines and unadorned look thrills you, if your heart beats faster at the words "Danish Modern," then the campus' Gallery 210 may have a home design for you.

By its third year, "Seinfeld" was in the toilet and was being threatened with cancellation. It had aired one of the shortest first seasons in television history, and NBC was concerned it wasn't finding an audience. It wasn't until the fourth "Seinfeld" season that it began to take off, and it became one of the most popular shows of all time.

The bar was set high for "Gears of War 2," but does it deliver? Simply put, yes.
"Gears of War" cemented the Xbox 360 as a true next-generation contender. Even though the first "Gears of War" has flaws, including the short and simple story, the stellar game play and beautiful graphics more than make up for them.

It has been the timeless question of many centuries which has baffled philosophers, scientists and millions of citizens across the world: which came first, the chicken or the egg?
Every person has their own answer and scenario to this ongoing riddle; however, after hours of research and reviewing numerous articles containing opinions, theories and logistic reasoning, the answer itself has been cracked: the egg came first.

The essence of Rachel Getting Married is reflected in its title-yes, Rachel (Rosemarie DeWitt) is getting married, but the story actually focuses on Kym (Anne Hathaway), the sister just out of rehab begging for attention and creating a mess whenever she's not noticed.

In the middle of Fall, the last thing I would expect is a "summer-time" comedy.
For "Role Models," directed by David Wain, the timing is unusually appropriate. This oddball of a film is undoubtedly funny, a far-cry from the family style movies that many are used to seeing come out before the Christmas season.

As with most winter seasons, this year PlayStation 3 has released a volley of new games in every genre to get gamers and their families pumped up to spend a lot of money on flashy video games this holiday season. "Dead Space" is one of the winter hopefuls, and I am sad to say that it is not quite the emotional RIDE its television commercials make it out to be.

I am happy to report that, unlike some of the more recent titles for PlayStation 3, "Little Big Planet" delivered on its promises.

Quite too often, books made into movies end up a disaster. Director Gina Prince-Bythewood has managed to create a movie out of a great book that captured the essence of the book. No book-to-movie will ever be as satisfying as the original, but "The Secret Life of Bees" tells the story without destroying it.
