Right now, popular media is in a love affair with historical bio-pics and that’s great! “Lincoln,” starring Daniel Day-Lewis and directed by Stephen Spielberg, made great box-office numbers and walked away from this year’s Academy Awards with two Oscars. Another movie in this vein recently released was “Hyde Park on Hudson” starring Bill Murray as Franklin Delano Roosevelt. This one was a flop, going in and out of movie theaters with few people even acknowledging its existence. However, the biggest issue with both of these movies was the controversy over their historical inaccuracy, which was rampant among academic communities. Historians say the films are entirely misconceptions about the past, embellished for entertainment. However, I don’t see films as a detriment to historical academia, but a way for those who aren’t the biggest history buffs to explore historical themes.

Yesterday I took a mini road trip down to Tucson to see Jeff Mangum from Neutral Milk Hotel play a show at the Rialto Theatre. I never really go down to Tucson so I decided to spend the day there wandering around the countless number of vintage shops to treasure hunt.

I am a huge fan of getting someone a unique gift. It has to be something that shows the relationship between that person and me. But as everyone knows, it can be quite difficult to find that perfect item for a holiday or birthday. Luckily with the Internet, gift options are nearly endless. While I have a couple sites that I rely on for most of my digital spending, there have been a couple that have caught my eye.

Everyone looks for some way to kill time. Maybe you have an hour between classes or the intercampus shuttle to and from the Polytechnic campus is taking longer than usual. Whatever the case, you probably want to use that time to take a break from your work; but what can you do? An option that many techies have taken advantage of (and you can too) is that they play classic videogames on their computers, smartphones and tablets. Yes, you can rock out to some Pokémon Red or Sonic the Hedgehog on the devices in your pocket or backpack.

Best Buy offers options throughout the entire genre of electronics. Everyone still needs and buys electronics and no new electronics stores have opened . . . so why is Best Buy’s electronics empire crumbling?

South by Southwest just ended, Coachella wristbands are arriving in the mail, McDowell Mountain Music Festival is this upcoming weekend and it doesn’t end there. Festival season has arrived and is surely in the air to say the least. But along with the sunshine, great music, and camping, festivals have turned into somewhat of a fashion show for bohemian babes. What will you be packing this year?

Now that spring break is (sadly) over, we have to return from our hideaways and get back into the routine. When you are out for a week, you can miss a lot, especially in the fast-paced technology realm. There were a few topics that caught my attention while everyone was checking in at the beach and catching some rays. One of the big topics was the announcement of the Samsung Galaxy S4.

Who is Frank Lloyd Wright? He was an inventor, a businessman, but most of all, an architect. His notable buildings include the Guggenheim Museum in New York, Fallingwater in Pennsylvania and Gammage Auditorium right here on the ASU Tempe campus. He created buildings for wealthy clients out of his first home that he designed and built himself in 1911 in Wisconsin. He named it Taliesen.

Every once in a while, I receive requests to review a website or app on my blog and most of the time, they do not catch my eye. But when I heard from cofounder and CEO, Victor Karkar about his web app, scrible, my interest was piqued. The scrible web app has been available in beta for a little while now and last week they announced scrible Student Edition, geared towards college students. I decided to try out scrible myself and see what it has to offer. Since the Student Edition is brand new, it is not yet available to everyone. Once you have created an account (using your .edu email), you can tell scrible to notify you once these other features are available. Until the Student Edition is activated on your account, you can take advantage of the basic edition. The basic edition is the same as the Student Edition, just missing certain features like citations.
