Instead of trotting back on defense, the senior center bulldozed into the paint to corral his own rebound. In one fell swoop, he landed on the...…

The message didn’t need any introduction. “Obviously, that was a defensive masterpie...…
…Many popular movie directors got their start in horror films: J.J. Abrams, Guillermo del Toro and James Cameron to name a few. In the film industry, horror is where many directors and producers begin to make a name for themselves. The same can be said for hip hop, as underground rappers debuted in the eerie, little-known subgenre that is horrorcore. Marked by harsh, aggressive beats and over-the-top depictions of taboo subjects, h...…

…PIXAR When I was eight, a strange thing happened. I was on my way up the stairs of my old house, about ready for bed, and heard my mom gasp from the kitchen. I looked back to her to see her clutching her coffee cup with her eyes somewhat wide. “The basement light just turned on,” she said. No one was supposed to be downstairs. My sister was next to me, my dad in the living room. Warily, my parents headed to the basement armed wit...…

…Walking around campus or the larger sloping grid of Ann Arbor, it’s easy to get the sense of an ever- present history. Plaques adorn buildings and pop up on street corners, boasting black and white photographs of old marches and speeches; campus tours recount legends and lore long sealed into the school’s character. This history takes a presumably darker turn if you stroll through Forest Hill Cemetery, where the mossy gravestones do...…
