HOOD: Thoughts on the fees protest
Thursday, April 7th, 2011
Ah those wacky socialists. Watching them, its hard to believe they were the plot device villains of films not too long ago. Look at them now. The fees campaign yesterday provided Nathan Anderson (not a racist) to speak on a one to one hundred level with the students, and to treat them all equally with tolerance and love (as he always does); just the way he likes all his communications to be, loud and jumbled.

NEWS: Hundreds protest to keep cap on fees
Wednesday, April 6th, 2011
Hundreds of protesters marched on City Hall to call for the cap on tuition fees to be kept today. The demonstration was also against the swingeing cuts being implemented by the Conservative-led government in Westminster and in support of Educational Maintenance Allowance. MLAs from across Northern Ireland’s political spectrum unambiguously spoke against a rise in fees at City Hall. The protest was carried off without incident.

REVIEW: Elbow – Build a Rocket Boys!
Monday, April 4th, 2011
When Elbow began the recording process for Build a Rocket Boys! back in late 2009, one can only imagine how the proverbial ‘elephant-in-the-studio’ – i.e. the sudden onset of recognition and success following the acceptance of a Mercury Music Award in 2008 for The Seldom Seen Kid – might have affected the band’s confidence in approaching their next record.

REVIEW: Norwegian Wood
Friday, April 1st, 2011
For fans of the famous Haruki Murakami novel, it was a very mixed reaction at the announcement of a film adaptation. With negative remarks from his readership in Japan and a somewhat more welcomed success worldwide, Norwegian Wood is one of the most talked about films to be released outside of Japan this year.

FEATURES: A kiss with a fist
Friday, April 1st, 2011
Chris Brown’s F.A.M.E. entered the UK Album Chart on Sunday at number ten, while Yeah 3X has spent nine weeks in the Top 40 and will probably hang around like a fart under a duvet for a good while. This is a man who has been convicted of assault on Rihanna, a wife-beater you could say. Surely it’s in no way appropriate to buy any of his music?

FEATURES: Today’s news tomorrow’s fish and chip paper?
Friday, April 1st, 2011
It is not hard to imagine a breaking story that takes the world by storm. Every news channel, newspaper and their online contingencies are covering it. Everywhere you look people are talking about the current ‘hot topic’ but then, almost as quickly as it enters our lives it disappears again. Is today’s news becoming tomorrow’s fish and chip paper?
