A few months ago, I wrote about how high-profile games have had certain celebrity voice actors such as Liam Neeson and Burt Reynolds in Fallout 3 and Saint’s Row: The Third, respectively.
Steve Lipstraw, a professional flight sophomore at ASU, left the Midwest to pursue his dream of piloting. And out on the Polytechnic campus, he's not the only one.
People are weird. I’m not just saying this because I’m weird either; I’m saying this as an aficionado of weirdoes.
Superman has been in five films, a cartoon series, comic books and a live-action TV series and is set to be remade in 2013 by director Zach Snyder and producer Christopher Nolan.
I have always believed in the idea that you can tell a lot about someone based on their bedroom. This thought inspired me to start a new series on my blog: The Bedroom Diaries.
Last week I wrote a post on my personal blog about the future of “social” and how it’s changing from the “sharing” that we currently do to the “doing” that new apps are growing in popularity. I found out about a company called 6Wunderkinder based in Berlin, Germany, that has two products.
I don’t know how many of you have had burlap in your home or used it in a variety of projects, but I really enjoy it. I think it is a very interesting material to use. It has a rough texture for a fabric, which can make for a really fun effect depending on the craft you are making. Sometimes, when you buy certain products such as rice, they may come in gunny sacks made from burlap. I’ve always found these bags to be so cool. They have sort of a vintage feel, and like everyone else I know, I’m obsessed with anything vintage-ish. These sacks can be cut, sewn and made into a variety of different crafts, depending on what you want to do with them. As with most things, the options are essentially endless, but I’m going to highlight a few of my favorite ideas. Bags: Backpacks, purses, totes, clutches, computer bags... name any type of bag, and most likely you can make it out of burlap. I actually own a backpack made out of such material and it reminds me of something out of Latin or South America. If you can hone your sewing skills (which I definitely need to work on) this bag can really be one-of-a-kind. Notebooks: Cut and sew your burlap material to make a cover for a notebook. If you’re feeling really adventurous, using some burlap for a “paper-like” material for your book. Coasters: By cutting your burlap into either small squares or circles, you have recycled-looking pieces ready for drink setting! Last but not least, something that I think could be really cool to try is using burlap as a canvas. In a way, the texture of burlap just reminds me of a rougher canvas, so it would be cool to attempt some sort of art, whether it be painting or drawing with heavy duty markers on burlap. Of course, as with most crafts, you can find all of these ideas available for purchase on the internet. If you’re feeling crafty though, I definitely recommend trying to make any or all of these ideas! If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to e-mail me at fbreisbl@asu.edu.
It’s very uncertain where Arizona State’s Slack Devils will be after this semester.

Flight Lounge + Bistro has landed in Old Town Scottsdale and will open soon, giving new meaning to the "Mile High Club."
Because I’m from Scottsdale, I try to stay as far away from it as possible. Its unique combination of high-end plastic surgery and relentlessly entitled prep-school kids appeals to a very specific group of people -- one that I’m not a part of -- and usually offers little in the way of arts, culture or sanity.
Move it to the Cloud Just a couple years ago, when someone said “the cloud” you might think of the puffy, white things floating in the sky.
With purple hair, approachability and a unique ability to lead, an ASU student leads the robotics team under the ASU/NASA Space Grant program.

Arizona State University wants Sun Devils to have that “Sun Devil Experience.” This is why on Fridays you see students and faculty rocking gold shirts and, in spurts, sporting neon trucker hats and paper cutouts of James Harden’s beard. Looking out over the Tempe Campus from the Student Recreation Center in her Sun Devil swag, Stefani Plummer, the assistant director of campus recreation, says she can see this revitalization of pride.
