The fuse ignites. The teen holding the firecracker flower has seconds before it bursts in a spectacular display of green, pink, and orange. He winds up, when suddenly he sees a small shadow in the fourth of July Twilight. Could it be a child on the other side of the street? He hesitates - one second too long.

It's hard having a beard. It's itchy, it's hot, people stare at it, and you can't blow huge bubble gum bubbles. I think the toughest, but manliest, part of having a beard is to get enough courage to grow pubic-like hair all over your face. To those men who try and succeed, I say, "Good one on you, mate" and for those who are follicle-challenged, I say, "Dude, sorry. If God didn't put it there, don't even try it."

After thirty-two years, the citizens of Washington D.C. are finally enjoying their Second Amendment rights again. Even our nation's capital is subject to the constitution. Now, not just criminals and felons will be able to have a handgun, but law-abiding citizens will be allowed to have handguns in their homes.

Each summer, millions of men look deep within themselves for the courage to stand up and fight. This group, of which I consider myself a fervent member, fights for a just and worthy cause, a complex mission that can only be understood by men and men alone.

In October 1969, several thousand students gathered on the U's campus and marched to the Federal Building downtown to protest the war. A few months later, our campus erupted with riots. Classes were sidetracked, the ROTC building on campus was firebombed, and four thousand students started a rally just south of the Union building.

Wal-Mart supercenters regularly get a bad reputation. From gutting local mom and pop shops, to increasing traffic and late night noise, it doesn't seem like there's a lot to like about the big box retailer. Salt Lake residents share these concerns over the new Wal-Mart coming to the Sugar House area.

Tim Russert is dead. An apparent sudden heart attack claimed the Jesuit-trained newsman's life on Friday the thirteenth - truly an unlucky day for this country. He expired while working, an irony seemingly lost in the sea of event-peddlers, perhaps in the spirit of good taste.

Every week it seems gas prices continue soaring to heights never before seen, and every jump in the price is accompanied by a mixture of outrage and panic. What's surprising to me is not that prices continue to rise, but that many people are taking it so personally and displaying such angst when we've known for months, even years, that gas prices would be climbing, and we've been given plenty of advance notice to adjust our lifestyles to minimize the harm to ourselves.

Our night-owl culture is officially under attack. There's no denying it now. The evidence is solid. We can no longer pretend there isn't a problem. Reading, playing on the computer and drinking and smoking all night with friends does in fact have a negative impact on our academic performance.
