Editors ‘
leTTer new spring, new life
With spring comes new life and having recently wrapped midterms, a little living is definitely in need. The sun is high and the beaches are warm, so there isn’t any better time to break away from the books. Whether your intended springtime adventures involve being by the water or picking up extra hours at work, CT is there to provide you with some much needed relief and entertainment. CT sits down with Vanderpump Rules star Katie Maloney to discuss her career and beauty line. Miss Los Angeles, 2014, Annabella Gutman, talks with us about her experiences as an actress and in the pageant
world. CT gets in the spirt of the holiday with a brief history of St. Patrick’s Day, a Shamrockoriented madlibs, as well as some Ireland survival tips. As with every Spring, comes joy and laughter, and what better way for a hearty chuckle than some good ole’ fashion tricks to play on your roommate. Regardless of how you care to kick off the season, revel in the moment as you set off for the break because as they say, ‘time flies’: it won’t be long before finals week is rearing its ugly head.

The Story Behind St. Patrick’s Day By Daniel Sutphin
In America, we have a way of taking things and making them our own. The argument as to whether or not this is always a good or bad thing is moot, aside from the fact that we tend to forget the purpose behind the original. This St. Patrick’s Day, between Car Bombs and chugs of Guinness and cheap, green-dyed beer, one should pose the question as to why we celebrate St. Patrick’s Day. There is actually a purpose to the day, no matter how much we bastardize it. The Man Behind the Myth Bogged down by myths and legends, historic details of St. Patrick vary. Catholic.org tells of Patrick being born to a Britain-based, Roman couple who oversaw the colonies. Around 14, he was captured during a raiding party and taken to Ireland as a slave to herd sheep. Ireland at this time was a land of Druids and pagans During his captivity, he found religion. Folklore describes that one night, while sleeping, a voice came to him in his dreams telling him to escape by going to the coast. There he met sailors who took him back to Britain where he rejoined his family. The voice later told him to return to Ireland. He achieved priesthood and, after being ordained as a bishop, he traveled back to Ireland to spread the Christian word. One legend claims that he met a chieftain of one of the tribes, who tried to kill him. Patrick converted him after the chieftain found he was unable to move his arm until he became friendly. Patrick preached the Gospel throughout Ireland winning over many converts. He used a shamrock to explain the Trinity, which became associated with Patrick, the Irish and eventually St. Patrick’s Day. He preached and converted for 40 years while he lived in poverty, traveled and endured much strife. He died on March 17, 461. St. Patrick’s Day was recognized centuries later in commemoration of his death.
A Day of Spiritual Renewal Due to St. Patrick’s association with bringing Christianity to Ireland, the Roman Catholic Church in Ireland celebrates with a holy day of obligation. The holiday is also officially celebrated by the Church of Ireland of the Anglican Communion; marked with special programs and a breaking of Lenten fasts. Many Irish citizens go to mass and spend the evening enjoying traditional Irish food and drink. For many outside of Ireland who commemorate its original purpose, it is seen as a day of spiritual renewal, complete with an offering of prayers for missionaries.
Totally useless fact: The longest one-syllable word in the English language is “screeched.”
A Day When Everyone’s Irish (or so they claim) Many traditions have been developed over the years to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day, however, not all of them are very accurate. The act of wearing green is exclusively an American tradition. In fact, in Ireland the color green was long considered unlucky. Another American creation we’ve so blindly embraced is drinking mass amounts of Irish beer or green beer, which has no historical reference at all. The dreaded pinching tradition inflicted upon those not conforming to the green get-up was apparently one started by school children. Yeah, school children! But be on the lookout this St. Patty’s because the pinchers are out there no matter what age you are! campus talk

CallinG all sainTs! iriSh whiSkey
In 1870, the Scottish “whisky” makers flooded the market with cheap whisky made with a coffee press. The Scottish whisky was so bad, Irish American distillers changed the spelling to “whiskey” to help differentiate between their whiskey and the Scottish crap.
Bailey’S iriSh creaM
In 1975, Irish distillers realized they could mix Irish whiskey with cream and a few other spices to create a concoction that would stay shelf-stable for two years. The calorie-laden Bailey’s Irish Cream has been helping make drunk girls chunky ever since.
guinneSS
Since the first batch was brewed in 1769, Guinness has become the most successful and popular beer in the world. In its home country of Ireland alone, Guinness sales top more than $2.5 billion annually. And no, Guinness beer has nothing to do with the Guinness book of world records.
iriSh car BoMBS
By JaMes Davis
ireland’S greaTeST 5 conTriBuTionS To SocieTy
Shortly after the release of Bailey’s – during a fit of drunken Irish nostalgia – Charles Burke Cronin Oat mixed his three favorite Irish inventions to create the Irish Car Bomb. To make your own, just drop a shot glass filled with Jameson Whiskey and Bailey’s into a pint of Guinness and chug. Repeat until she’s pretty. Or you puke on her and she leaves. Either way, you win.
iriSh puBS Irish pubs are the Chinese takeouts of the bar world. They all look the same. It’s as if there’s an Irish pub kit you can buy off eBay or something. Good thing is, with all the continuity of design, you can get equally as hammered at a pub in Baltimore as you can at a pub in Ireland.
They say a man’s worth can be judged by his contributions to society. The same can be said about a country’s contributions to the world. Some countries aspire to be centers of industry or commerce, delivering goods and services to the far corners of the earth. Others aspire to be agricultural hubs that feed the world’s children. However, few countries have the conviction to take on the monumental task of ensuring the world not only has enough booze to get totally pissed, but that the aspiring alcoholics of the world have standardized establishments in which to do so. Ireland, in the spirit of St. Paddy’s day, we salute you for your alcoholic fervor and invaluable contributions to society. 12

OFF TO FIND ME LUCKY CHARMS! By Brian Hodges
Worst-case Scenario:
You’re stranded in Ireland on the most famous day of the Irish year: Saint Patrick’s Day. Do you have what it takes to make it out alive?
WILL YOU PLAY THE
WILD ROVER? MAY THE ROAD RISE (SLOWLY) TO MEET YOU
(How to Use a Parachute) A fine start to any day, you made the mistake of slaggin’ Colin Farrell on an airplane. Now he’s kicked yeh in the clackers and thrown yeh out the feckin’ window. Get that parachute open now before yeh flitters yerself on the ground, laddie! STEP 1: Down the rest of that Bailey’s you
were chugging before this unexpected detour. STEP 2: With one hand, toss away your glass.
With the other, toss away your pilot chute – a very tiny parachute connected to the main chute. STEP 3: When the pilot chute pulls taut, it
releases the main chute. Keep your arms in tight until the main chute fully deploys. Otherwise, you could end up double-fisting with only one fist. STEP 4: Using the control lines on your right
and left, steer yourself toward a soft patch of bonny green clover. STEP 5: Break your leg because you had no
idea you’d be landing amongst so many sheep.

CT ChaTs WiTh…
“I learned how to be more assertive, stick up for myself and put my foot down this season!” grab me by the arm, and that is not how you handle strangers! It’s not OK to snag my wrist and demand I take a picture or take your advice. i would imagine having your relationship play out on Tv opens you up to a lot of advice from strangers. how do you graciously handle that? I mostly just smile and nod my head. I don’t get into conversation. People think they know the whole situation and that’s fine, because so much of our personal lives are out there (they’re not completely off for thinking that!). I just nod my head and say something like, “Well, you know, there’s more to the story.” I don’t ever get mad, though.
Coming off season 2, with all its drama, how did you mentally prepare yourself for this season? It’s really hard to mentally prepare because you never know what to expect. You don’t know whose going to lie, who’s going to cheat – this group is so unpredictable! Going into it this season, I spent a lot of time by myself outside the show so I could go in with a clear mind. There’s no use worrying about what hasn’t happened yet! how do you process letting so much of your life out to the public? I try not to, actually! (Laughs) I forget how many people watch our show. Of course my friends watch and my mom watches, so I hear their opinions and thoughts on everything. When I’m watching the really prying moments, I’m always worrying about what my mom’s going to think – not what the two million people watching are going to. On other reality shows, people can go home and the public doesn’t have access to them. But for you guys, all fans have to do is come to suR. What’s it like having fans come into your place of work? Honestly, it gives me some anxiety. Some people on our show really love attention, so as soon as they leave the house they’re just ready for it! Not me. I don’t do the show to be seen and recognized everywhere I go, so being at SUR can be really hard. It is seven hours of non-stop picture taking, and it’s exhausting! Sometimes I really just want to hide in the bathroom! Also because we obviously work in a bar setting, people drink and get more assertive. I’ve had people just
so how has your life changed since you came on the show? My day to day is basically the same. We don’t really have a lot of free time to see people outside of SUR, so sometimes my other friends get a little upset and feel like I’m not making time for them. But they usually come around and understand that it’s not that I think I’m too good for them, it’s just a busy job. Their support means a lot to me, too. This is a weird job to have, and you really need those friends outside the show to keep you grounded.
I think just that juxtaposition makes me seem a bit weak, which frustrates me. Sometimes this season I didn’t think something was significant, but it was to my friend, so I chose to support her. In turn, I was called a doormat, a follower, a puppet and all of that. So I learned how to be more assertive, stick up for myself and put my foot down this season! What are you hoping to gain out of your experience on the show? I don’t know necessarily. I feel like I’ve grown and I can grow a lot personally. On a reality TV show, it’s not like in real life where if you get in a fight with your friend, then a few days later you’re over it. Instead, you have 85 conversations about, and then you have to watch it all back again. You get a thick skin, though, because of stuff like that. I’m not looking to become a professional reality TV star, though. I started a beauty/ lifestyle/fashion blog last year as an outlet to share my interests, tips and tricks. I have a following now that I don’t want to just bombard with selfies and pics of food, so I started sharing things that really matter to me. I’m hoping to make that into a brand that will sell. Maybe Pucker&Pout cosmetics, hair care – we’ll see!
so tell me about the original casting. What did you have to go through and why do you think you were picked? We all worked at SUR prior to the show. Lisa called a meeting and told us we were going to be shooting a pilot and asked who would be interested in doing it. She met with each of us separately and it quickly became clear that this whole tumultuous group dynamic already existed in the restaurant. We already had plenty of drama beforehand, so they kind of just went with something that was already there! how do you feel about the edits of the show and the way everyone gets portrayed? For a while at the beginning they made a lot of us one-dimensional, so you didn’t really get to know all of us. Like Stassi, for instance.

Miss annaBella
“i’m not going to wait for something to come to me. i try to do as much as i can with my life” Annabella Gutman is no stranger to success – or hard work, for that matter. Her aspirations brought her out of a childhood in Israel to a teenage modeling career in New York, one that put her on the runways of today’s most elite designers, including Calvin Klein. After recent roles in hit TV shows like Entourage, CSI and ABC’s Desperate Housewives, as well as forays into production with her newest film, Dominion, Gutman now takes on a new challenge: rising to the top of the pageant world.

Totally useless fact: Tigers not only have striped fur, they have striped skin!
Miss annaBella people. I love my family, I’d do anything for them. The sad fact is that when you live there, you’re always under attack. It’s something that I sometimes feel will never stop, but I pray that one day it will stop and everyone will be at peace with one another. It’s a hard too when you’re a kid, being attacked all the time. I literally had missiles flying directly over my head when I was just a child. We always had to watch our back. Everyone walks and travels by bus there, so we had to be very careful. We always had to be ready to get off the bus if someone suspicious got on because there could be an explosion any minute. It was frightening. And yet growing up, my family gave me the most amazing childhood, and I would never take it back. I think coming from there makes you a very strong person, and makes you very ambitious to get out of there and make it big. It makes you who you are. Here the recently crowned Miss Los Angeles 2014 shares the wisdom she’s gleaned from her years in the limelight. From her fortitude and purity, to her unceasing perseverance, one thing is clear: this rising star has learned to thrive outside the norm. Tell me about your experience in pageants. Pageants are very different from the modeling or acting world. You have a certain program, and you really have to follow the rules! But it’s nice to get to be you. You learn a lot and meet a lot of people – I’ve met them from all over California, and if I win the next round, then I’ll get to meet people from all over the United States. Then the next round would be Ms. World. It’s very interesting and very challenging, and it’s a lot of pressure. It’s something I think every woman should try once or twice in her life. are pageants something you’ve always known you wanted to do? Not at all. I’ve been watching models from the time I was a kid, and my mom my loved it because she was once a model. My parents kept telling me I should go and start competing for Ms. California, and every year I would turn down the invitations. Even when I finally decided to go down and talk with the group I wasn’t sure; I kept thinking after my modeling maybe they wanted me to go as a judge! Then when I went for the first time, everyone got really excited and they really wanted me to compete. They encouraged me, said I had a really good chance, then I got to be Miss Los Angeles! Tell me about growing up in israel. What was that like? I was born and raised in Israel. It’s an amazing, beautiful country full of many very loving
how has that helped you throughout your career? I’m very determined to listen to my parents. Since I left so young, they were very strict in telling me not to drink or do drugs, to be a good student and be independent, and to not let anyone fool or take advantage of me. Now, I really feel good because I’ve never done drugs or smoked weed in my life. It means that I’m always responsible and alert to what’s going on around me. Ninety-nine percent of the time I’m the driver whenever my friends and I go out. Everybody’s going wild and getting drunk, and I’m the only one drinking a cappuccino.
how do you stay motivated? Whenever I get down because things don’t go my way, I always think there will be something else – especially at acting auditions. For me, it’s a little harder because of my eastern European accent. I can’t play the girl next door in Texas, that’s for sure! Still, every time I don’t get something I just keep thinking positive – I’m going to find something else. I’m going to come up with something better.
“i’ll never stop trying to get where i want to be. you just need to be strong and not let things get you down. Just keep smiling and move forward!” so what’s up next for you? Well, I’m developing another project that I can’t exactly talk about yet; it’s a comedy, a really unique project that I wrote. We’re looking to shoot before Christmas, but I can’t really disclose more until the copyright is complete! I will say it’s a really unique project – very funny and very different. Something you don’t see on normal movies and TV shows.. I’ve also been really busy in my own life lately: doing charity work around California, modeling work and conventions. I’ve had two fashion weeks – in New York and LA – and I’m also meeting with lots of agents about acting. I just wish I had more time everyday! I never get everything done because the day just goes by!
And I never give up. I’m not going to wait for something to come to me. I try to do as much as I can with my life – follow my dreams and make them a reality. I want to reach out and help my family and my country. I like to help, and I like for my opinions to be heard! So it’s made me stronger, and different too. so how do you handle body image issues? That’s the hardest thing. “I starred in a TV commercial at age 12, which was actually good because I started to eat healthy at a really young age.” I’m very regimented and disciplined in what I eat – I eat the same stuff all the time! I’m also very active during the day, so I just get used to it. Being active also makes you work up these healthy cravings, plus you have to drink a lot of water. When I moved here, I was really skinny. I had no boobs and no chest, then when I moved to LA, I became a woman – I’m not a little girl anymore! But I still think I look better now than I’ve ever looked. I love my body – I’m not 90 pounds, but I have a woman’s body!!

STRANGE BREW!
By Brian Hodges
Brewing
Your Own Beer
On A Budget
And A Deadline St. Patrick’s Day is rapidly approaching and you’re still not sure where you want to spend your evening. You could make your way over to the hot bar or club, only to buy cup after cup of overpriced, overrated, overflat beer like everyone else on campus. Or you could take matters into your own hands and brew the stuff yourself. Home brewing kits, complete with hydrometers, airlocks and bottle cap applicators, are a dime a dozen online (actually more like $100 apiece) and apparently make things painfully simple for the novice brewer. But we’re on a deadline (and a budget) here! We have zero time to waste on the U.S. Postal Service. Time to go ghetto on the microbrew. With a quick trip to the local Lowes and Whole Foods, you can improvise a brewing station in your dorm or apartment capable of producing actual, drinkable, drunkable beer well before the green-shirted masses parade onto the quad.
SHOPPING LIST • Malt Extract (40oz can) • Yeast (1 tsp) • White Sugar (6-7 cups) • 5-Gallon pot • 2-Liter Soda Bottles (about 12 of ‘em) •P lastic Siphon Hose (like the one on your beer funnel) • 10-Gallon Plastic Garbage Can (with lid) Step One: SANITIZE The seedy underbelly of alcohol creation is that it requires fungus to do the fermenting. That’s right, fungus, like the stuff you get in your jockstrap. It’s up to you to make sure nothing nastier gets into the concoction, so be sure to wash, rinse and sterilize every piece of equipment with bleach before you begin. If stray bacteria get into the brew, it could make you sick, but even worse, your beer will taste like ass. Step Two: BREW Pour 10 liters of cold water into the garbage can (“carboy” in brewers’ terminology). Bring seven more liters to a boil in the pot. Add malt extract and cook uncovered for 20 minutes. Add sugar and let it dissolve. Dump the mixture into the carboy, getting it good and agitated. Fungi are a lot more… fun… when you give them plenty of air. Top it off with cold water, bringing the carboy down to room temperature. Mix in the yeast then put the lid on loosely. Too tight and the carboy will explode… which can be fun in its own way, but will leave you beerless come the 17th.
Totally useless fact: A dragonfly has a lifespan of 24 hours.
Step Three: FERMENT Keep the carboy covered in a warm, out-of-the-way spot for six to 10 days. Don’t open the lid “just to check” or you’ll screw up the fermentation process. After the right amount of time has elapsed, give the brew (“wort” in brewers’ terminology) a taste. If it still tastes sweet, give it a couple more days. Step Four: BOTTLE Once the sweetness is gone and the wort stops bubbling, you’re ready to bottle the malts of your labor. Just be very careful because there are multiple ways to screw this part up, and it would be just plain dumb to blow your wad this close to the end. First, scoop two teaspoons of sugar into each two-liter soda bottle. Put one end of the siphon into the carboy and make like a kid slurping a milkshake on the other end to get it flowing. Be careful NOT to agitate the wort, lest it oxidize, making your beer taste like the piss water you were trying to avoid in the first place. Be careful NOT to fill the bottles completely, lest they explode. Be careful NOT to siphon any sediment out of the carboy, lest you have the worst beer farts in the history of mankind. Screw the caps on tight then shake to dissolve the sugar. Keep the bottles warm and ferment a few days longer before refrigerating. Step Five: DRINK Your patience and fortitude have finally paid off. Crack open an ice cold bottle and enjoy. Not only did you make the equivalent of 60 longnecks for the price of a couple pizzas, you’ve discovered a handy way of getting around those pesky open container laws, too. Refine and enhance your process by scouring the internet for recipes and brewing tips, courtesy of fellow enterprising drunks from here to Ireland. A very Happy St. Paddy’s Day indeed! campus talk

The best-kept secrets to keeping your sanity, your figure and your hair.
phySically
Over 30 different hormones are released when you are feeling stressed, and no matter how many times you’ve encountered a specific stressor before – for example, cramming for a test – your body registers it as if it was the first time! Stress is also linked to hair loss, so when dad said you’re making him lose all his hair – he actually wasn’t that far off.
eMoTionally
Stress is linked to pretty much all major illnesses – such as cancer – but laugther increases the amount of natural killer cells that protect your body against them. CT is here to help with endless laughts every month!
poSiTively
Not all stress is bad stress. Healthy stress, called eustress, causes the release of dopamine, serotonin and endorphins into your body, which enhances your physical, mental and emotional health. 34

According to several recent studies, freshmen in college are more stressed than sophomores, juniors or seniors. While each class has its own set of stressors, freshmen deal with the most stressing transitions. So, newbie, never fear! It will get easier – it’s a proven fact!
STreSS eaTing
Everybody knows digging into that huge brownie sundae relieves stress – then the guilt afterword brings it all back. Here’s a few stress-relieving foods you don’t have to feel guilty about: carbs (breads, pastas, oatmeal), fruits (oranges, blueberries, cantaloupe), vegetables (spinach, avocado, broccoli), fish (salmon and tuna – sushi, too!), nuts (pistachios and almonds) and to drink, black tea.

Who are these amazing people? In short, they’re your parents. Okay, so they do really embarrassing things to you sometimes, like ask your sig nif way too many questions about their career goals and intentions. But, they are you parents, and you love them! You ESPECIALLY love them when they toss some moolah your merry way. So, here are some tips on how to get even more money out of them. Happy Spending!

How many times has your mother said, “Do I look like an ATM machine to you?” Next time she says it, just kiss-up for a bit and say, “No way, ATM’s are ugly and impersonal. You, Mom, are absolutely gorgeous and do not look a day older than 40. Do you know my friend John said you’re a MILF?” She’ll be so flattered by your compliments, she’ll insist on giving you a little extra spending money.
Make mom and dad suddenly feel sorry for you because you got stuck with “crazy” Krista.

Just when your parents start to worry, tell them you NEED money to escape your dorm and “Krista,” as frequently as you can – for your OWN safety, of course. BOnus pOinT: Tell dad you think “Krista” or her other crazy friend stole money from your wallet and used it to buy books about vampires and circus sideshows.

Parents only want the best for their kids. They want their children to love college and take advantage of all opportunities. Convince them that you really want to study in Bora Bora for a year, because it will be an amazing experience and expand your horizons while getting an education. After they hand you money for the application fee and foreign processing fee, tell them you were rejected.
iMpreSS your parenTS
Type up an ‘official’ school letter informing your parents that you won an academic scholar award from your university. Make sure the letter looks professional and is grammatically correct. Mail it to your folks and invite them to a ceremony at the school in your honor – make sure it’s on a day you know your parents cannot attend. They’ll be so excited and so proud, they’ll send a congratulatory check and a fancy card apologizing that they can’t make the ceremony BOnus pOinT: Convince them to have the rest of your family send congratulatory checks, too.
Even if you find your schoolwork taxing and miserable, call home and convince ma and pa that you need additional textbooks for class or your professor will fail you NO MATTER WHAT, and you NEED this class for your major! They won’t want you to lose your scholarship, so they’ll be happy to send you a check. BOnus pOinT: Didn’t they always want a child who was a doctor? Tell them you’re switching your major to pre-med and need even more books now.

DON’T
…
Come back with those friggin’ cornrows in your hair. You need to run the hell away from the people on the beach who charge the stupid gringos an astronomical fee to uglify their hair.
Drink so much that you have to be rushed to an emergency room. It’s Spring Break so, of course, good times will be had. Practicing a little self-control, however will leave you with far more happy memories than bad or uncertain flashbacks. Don’t decide to use the atmosphere as an excuse to get ‘overly friendly’ with friends who are unwanton of the attention. It may seem like a fun idea at the time but it may only lead to a lot of heartache for you, and your counterparts. Keep yourself together so that you are able to discern other people’s body language and be able to read the situations with which you present yourlsef.

10 Ways to
Ruin Spring Break
for the Rest of Us
Totally useless fact: Shakespeare invented the word ‘assassination’ and ‘bump’.
9
8
Demand that the group takes part in every activity you find to be fun. While it’s impolite to leave people out of an activity on a group trip, it’s equally rude to push your friends into a scenario that could make them feel uncomfortable.
7
Work on your tan to the point that you forgoe sunscreen, ‘bronzing’ to the point it ends in the ER with 3rd degree burns.
6
Invite strangers back to the hotal room without telling anyone. Sure your friends should and, most likely, will have your back, but be nice enough to give them a heads up.
You are already $15,000 in debt from school loans, so what’s another $2K on a vacation from the skullbusting stress that is college? There’s no better time to let off steam, but try to apply some moderation to your idiocy, and avoid these kinds of shenanigans. You don’t want to come home to find you’ve alienated your friends and dug yourself a hole of guilt and financial problems.
10
Have to try everything only learn that maybe the octopus was a bad pairing with tequila. It’s important in life to try new things, but it’s equally essential to know your limits. Instead of leaping in head first with the only outcome of a session with the toilet, use some reserve and put some thought behind your choices. Get a tattoo or piercing in a filthy parlor. Blood infections can be difficult to heal, especially if your still on holiday in Mexico. Spends the entire break worrying about school. Focus is important in college, but burning out is a real thing. Enjoy the break while it lasts.. Upon returning, yammer on endlessly (annoyingly) about how great Spring Break was. Sure it was a great time, but your friends probably don’t care to hear about that sweet dance party on the beach a million times. campus talk

Cooking 101 Spaghetti Aglio Olio by John scheck
Don’t be intimidated by the Italian name, which means spaghetti with garlic and oil; in Italy this dish is as basic and simple as ramen noodles are for American college students. It’s something all Italian men can prepare and a favorite dish after returning home from the bars late at night – or more accurately, early in the morning – probably because the ingredients are almost always in the kitchen. 44

march 2015
Boil the spaghetti in salted water. Pour the olive oil into a non-stick skillet on medium heat. Slice the garlic thinly and add to the heated oil along with a pinch of salt. Tilt the skillet so the oil and garlic pool to one end, which ensures that the garlic doesn’t burn. What you’re trying to do is infuse the oil with the flavor of the garlic. After one minute, add the red pepper flakes to the oil. If you have fresh parsley add this last. When the spaghetti is cooked, add it to the pan along with a bit of the pasta water and toss with the oil, garlic and red pepper until the water has evaporated. Serve with a glass of red wine, which is a good thing to have on hand for date night.
Ingredients: Spaghetti 3 Garlic Cloves Olive Oil Salt
Red Pepper Fresh Parsley (optional)
There is a lot of room for personal interpretation in spaghetti aglio olio: use a little or a lot of oil; add anchovies, parmesan cheese, sun dried tomatoes, you name it, but it’s best to err on the side of simplicity. Buon appetito (I think that’s right but I don’t speak Italian)!

BloodBorne pS4 March 24 Creators of Demon’s Souls and Dark Souls – Hidetaka Miyazaki and FromSoftware – have teamed together to creat the new action RPG Bloodborne. The blood-drenched and detailed, gothic environments set the perfect setting for unforgiving, unrelenting terrors as players search for answers in the ancient cit of Yharnam. Now cursed with a strange, endemic illness, danger, death and madness haunt every corner in this brutal world. The only way to survive: unearth the city’s darkest secrets.
final fanTaSy Type-0 hd pS4, xBox one March 17 Making its Western debut, Square Enix’s Final Fantasy Type-0 HD is a remaster of the Japanese PlayStation Portable blockbuster from 2011. Type-0 drops players in Orience, a dark world governed by crystals and torn apart by war, as the nation’s youth are swept into its conflict. Players take control as Class Zero, a group of 14 students from an elite military academy whose country is attacked by an aggressive neighboring Empire. In fast-paced action RPG combat, players use magic and the powerful abilities of all 14 characters as they fight off the injustice of war to uncover secrets of its genesis.
neverwinTer xBox one, pc March/TBd After the demise of the last Lord of Neverwinter, factions battle for dominance in the disaster-plagued land. Although a once busting location the city has suffered for the past hundred years. The most recent – an all-consuming Spellplague – took a massive toll on the population, and to make matters worse, the dead are beginning to rise from the dead and storm the city. Players must choose to become one of five classic D&D classes and team up with friends or computer-controlled allies to form five-person co-op groups. Players also create their own storylines and quests utilizing user-friendly content generation.

With a shift to police and the “war on crime”, the EA-published game breaks away from the military setting that has characterized the series. Players will have access to various military-grade weapons and vehicles, such as the Lenco BearCat, as well as having police equipment such as tasers and handcuffs. The new release will also feature new game modes like Heist, Rescue, Hotwire Mode, Blood Money and Crosshair Mode. campus talk

pleaSe Turn off all MoBile deviceS “Butt-dials” can be a nuisance on the the the dial and the receiving ends. Aside from an impromptu break up or a muffled revelation of previously concealed truths, however, they are usually harmless. This was not so much the case for Justin Kryzanowski. At the time of his accidental dial, Justin was 24 and in the middle of talking to a drug dealer. The receiver of his pocket call was none other than the police department’s emergency line. That’s right, Kryzanowski butt-called the coppers in the middle of a drug deal. The 911 operator recorded the entire conversation leaving the careless caller with charges of possession of a controlled substance, possession of drug paraphernalia and prohibited offensive weapons, according to a Scranton Times-Tribune 2012 report. After listening to the deal go through, police traced the cell phone back to Kryzanowski’s residence in Scranton, Penn., where they found various prescription medications, drug paraphernalia, brass knuckles and syringes loaded with Suboxone, which is a medication used to treat opioid addiction. While searching the residence, police also found the cell phone that matched the number that had called 911.
