NEWS BRIEF: No seats for politics students
Wednesday, October 21st, 2009
The first year Perspective on Politics class is over subscribed to the point of too many students and not enough places. By places, I mean seats. The Physics Emeleus Lecture Theatre holds enough seats for 6 less pupils that are attending the classes.

REVIEW: Couple’s Retreat
Wednesday, October 21st, 2009
Four couples travel to a paradise resort in a bid to rekindle the sparks in their respective relationships….
As tantalising as this may sound, and as funny as the trailer may appear, I warn you not to be fooled. Upon seeing couples retreat, what irritated me the most (in a film consisting mostly of irritating moments) was the sheer rampant egotism of the writers/stars Vaughan and Faverau.

ARTS: The Godfather returns to the QFT
Wednesday, October 21st, 2009
Family, honour, betrayal, corruption, love and loss.
These are just a few of the many challenging themes running through Francis Ford Coppola’s outstanding adaption of Mario Puzo’s classic novel. The Godfather has been proclaimed by critics and movie goers alike to be the greatest film ever made. And now 37 years after its initial release, this popularity shows no sign of waning.

OPINION: Racism and Roses
Monday, October 19th, 2009
It was with unreserved disgust that on Saturday the 17th October, I witnessed a doorman at a club in Belfast taunt an elderly woman by taking her belongings and giving them to other people. The incident would, under normal circumstances prompt a phone call to the police, but such is the nature of racism within our society, that the dispossession of plastic roses from an elderly Roma rose seller went largely unnoticed by the nearby crowd.
