Eat your vegetables or no dessert. This is a phrase no child wants to hear. Kids basically have no control over what they eat. Parents buy and prepare the food, and the children have to gulp down whatever appears on their plate. If they do not like what it is, they squirm in their chairs praying that somehow that disgusting pile of green will magically disappear. TCU's nutrition counselor Stephanie Dickerson said, "students are like kids in a candy store," once they get into college, they embrace their newfound freedom and make poor eating choices, she said.

Even though the Horned Frogs take on the Baylor Bears in Saturday's season opener, the buzz around campus has been about the team's trip to Austin to face the University of Texas Longhorns. But for most students, they'll have to be satisfied with watching the game outside of the stadium or from the comfort of home. Due to the large demand for tickets and the limited supply of tickets given to TCU, a lottery was organized to determine which students would receive a ticket to the game.

Growing up, music has helped to define feelings, emotions and memorable moments in my life. Whether it was belting out Bon Jovi's "Livin' on a Prayer" during a night out at Pete's Piano Bar or bumping and grinding at a nightclub with a random female to The Notorious B.I.G.'s "Hypnotize," music has undoubtedly shaped our outlook on how we look at life.

For me, Elton John's "Tiny Dancer" changed the way I felt about TCU football this season.

The football team will not be the only squad to make the trip down I-35 in the next week. The soccer team will open its season against the No. 9 University of Texas Longhorns in Austin, today.On Sunday afternoon, the team will return to Fort Worth for its home opener against the Utah State Aggies at Garvey-Rosenthal Stadium.

Senior forward Lesley Parkinson said the team is not intimidated by facing UT.

Last Saturday was a long day for me. I was at a retreat all morning and spent the afternoon studying. About 6:30 p.m., I was ready for dinner so I headed off to The Main with a couple of my friends. When I got there, I was shocked. The Main was closed.As many of you have probably noticed, The Main has changed its weekend operating hours. It's now only open from 7 a.m. until 4 p.m. Fridays and 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. Saturdays. So, what are students supposed to do for dinner on weekends? Walk to Worth Hills and wait in an exceptionally long line to pay an inordinate price for food at Pond St.

The presidential campaign season has been running for nearly a year and growing in intensity - and there's still more than a year to go.Surely, I'm not the only one already tired of hearing about the upcoming election. The news is filled 24/7 with campaign stops, speculations and the latest gossip on the myriad of candidates vying for their party's presidential bid.

The 2008 race is the first non-stop campaign in U.S. history, said Charles Colson, who was special counsel to Richard Nixon, with campaigning beginning the day after the 2004 election.

About 70 million people watched on Sept. 26, 1960, as a handsome young senator charmed the cameras while his opponent dripped sweat and appeared confused beneath his receding hairline during America's first televised presidential debate. The young senator, John F. Kennedy, knew how to take full advantage of television - the latest in technology - to outshine his opponent, then Vice President Richard Nixon.

It's time to help pitch in at the on-campus apartments.Residents of the Tom Brown-Pete Wright apartments have been provided with individual recycling bins in their apartments in hopes of initiating a campus wide movement, a resident assistant said Monday.

Ryan Hambley, one of the RAs who put the program in motion, said the idea for individual recycling bins was brought up at an RA brain-storming session.
