This past summer, after getting rejected by the San Diego Zoo, Costco and a "Christian" bookstore (I'm not bitter), I finally landed a job as a spa concierge at a swanky local hotel. Now it sounds pretty exotic, and I do concede that as summer jobs go, I had it pretty darn easy.

Ear-splitting techno music. Skimpily-clad, gyrating bodies. Flashing strobe lights dancing across a mountain of foam.
Everything appears to be running smoothly - until you notice small clusters of people standing along the fringes of the crowd, cell phones clutched in their hands while they try to edge as close as possible to their roommates without coming off as clingy.

Sen. John McCain has been resuscitated. The 72-year-old Republican nominee was never in any physical danger, but his campaign seemed to be clinging to life support. Not as charismatic as his opponent Sen. Barack Obama and lacking a sympathetic media, even from traditionally strong republican bastions like talk radio, there has thus far been a worrisome dearth of support for McCain's campaign. That was at least until Friday, when it was announced Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin would be his running mate.

The news that College Fest and other concerts traditionally held outdoors will be forced inside is disconcerting for a number of reasons.

Judging by the cable news networks' coverage of the 2008 presidential election, one might be concerned Sen. John McCain (Ariz.) had chosen Bristol Palin, 17, to be his running mate.
This young woman has no experience, her critics point out, and she's pregnant with her boyfriend's child.

From the moment I biked away from Commons in May of last year, I knew everything would be different upon my return to USC. Never again would I get to experience the warm, molten chocolate cake of Upstairs Café nor would I be able to wolf down a nicely packed burrito from La Salsa when I came back to school this year.

The media spotlight exclusively shining on Sen. Barack Obama has finally moved to Sen. John McCain. Or at least to his vice presidential nominee, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, who is attracting the media attention that McCain previously only dreamt about.
Tapping Palin as his running partner last Friday, in an obvious pandering to female voters, McCain made a mistake considering Palin is 100 percent anti-choice.

This year, my mother is especially excited for her birthday. She is excited because, in her words, she gets to claim at least two historic events on her birthday, one of which is occurring this week.

I witnessed a barrage of traffic offenses this past week, as students returned to school after summer vacation. Many violations were caused by reckless students who thought that attending classes on time was more important than the safety of their peers.

"Rhys you've grown up! When did this happen?" my girlfriend randomly proclaimed during a pause in conversation over dinner. This sudden declaration made me realize how far I've actually come from that young boy she used to date.
When I was younger I used to believe that adulthood came at the age of 18.

The recent success of the United States at the Beijing Olympics, sparked by two local athletes, has changed the way Americans view the games.
Glendora's own Bryan Clay, a graduate of Azusa Pacific University, won the gold medal in the decathlon, earning him the title "World's Greatest Athlete.

After nearly 19 months of endless campaigning and glossy rhetoric, many Americans remain confused about Barack Obama's stance on free trade and what an Obama presidency would mean for American businesses involved in the global economy. But this is not their fault.

"Avalon" is an album that Anthony Green had to make. Not only for his fans to be able to hear his take on the acoustic genre, but more importantly for himself.

As classes started last week, Santa Ana College still did not have a fully functional alarm system. Once again our students and faculty study and work in a facility where there is a potential for disaster. Since last year when el Don brought the problem to the public’s attention, steps have been taken to fix the dilapidated system, and progress has been made.

Two years ago, the Claremont Independent laid out its purpose and mission in an editorial aimed toward new students. Often our purpose goes without saying, but sometimes it is important to step back and remind students why we are here and what we are fighting for.

What do the Olympics and the presidential campaign have in common? A color issue
