In honor of the Winter Olympics currently going down in Vancouver, this week’s Video Dose features Canadian native sons (and daughter) Arcade Fire. Admittedly, Arcade Fire is from Montreal, which is a long way from Vancouver. Still, they’re one of the most talented and successful bands in their genre to emerge recently from the Great [...]
Well, it seems Google, everyone’s favorite Internet company, is trying to take another leap forward. This time on two fronts. For one, by promising language translation software that works right from your cellphone. And secondly, with their new social networking tool, Buzz. Let’s talk cellphone interpreter first. The basic plan is to create software that [...]
There have been plenty of complaints about the health care debate not being transparent enough, and that President Obama and the Democrats have not included the Republicans enough in piecing together legislation for a health care bill. There have been accusations that the president has not kept his word. For example, Utah Rep. Jason Chaffetz [...]
The Welsh group Los Campesinos! released their first two pop-tastic albums about eight months apart, both back in 2008, and now, after a year and a half of much anticipation (at least for me), their third record Romance is Boring has finally arrived. But as its first track indicates, if you haven’t heard much from [...]
Dear Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, This year is a momentous one for the Oscars, primarily because you’ve nominated ten movies for best picture. Bravo.

If you have not yet heard of Fictionist and have lived or been going to school in Provo for more than [...]

A few months ago, some friends from out of town came to visit and, as we drove past the still-unfinished Zion’s Bank building, they wondered aloud why such a quaint town would erect such a large eyesore. Though I got defensive (we need the jobs, I thought — and besides, they were outsiders), the underlying [...]

Now I know that I am not the most cultured person in the world, but I recognize the lack of value for entertainment [...]
