“The Walking Dead.” “American Horror Story.” “True Blood.”
TV dares to scare us every day now. Who needs Halloween?
Taylor Swift’s fourth studio effort, “Red,” makes a statement as bold as its namesake color: As Swift matures into a woman, her talent is here to stay.
With an eclectic mix of radio-ready pop songs, twangy country tunes and heartbreaking ballads, Swift proves her range both lyrically and musically.

As an avid horror movie fan, I was eager for the release of the newest “Paranormal Activity.”

Few Baylor students have frequented the family-owned café in Hewitt, The Mix Gifts and Café, but a new expansion that includes a coffee shop and food truck on Speight will be hard to miss.
The food truck, Street Eats, is currently open from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Tuesday through Friday on the corner of Speight and 14th Street, and will continue the tradition of the Hewitt café’s famous French style quiches, sandwiches, soups and homemade desserts.

While voice acting may be a niche form of acting in the real world, it thrives on the internet with such websites as the Voice Acting Alliance and the Voice Acting Club.
On the Voice Acting Alliance website, users can become a member of an interactive community where not everyone has to be talented with their voice. There are writers, actors, producers and musicians with a common goal to have fun while doing what they love. When you become a member, you can choose to audition for original audio or visual productions, or projects that are associated with a pre-existing medium of art, often called fan productions.

When you mix an atmospheric sound, origami and a dynamic duo, you get Dreamboat.
Composed of Boerne junior Tessa Gaston and Castle Kirk, also of Boerne, Dreamboat is one of the musical acts chosen by Uproar Records for representation in the 2012-2013 year. However, they are determined to make sure that they stand out among the crowd.
For those tired of the monotony of the city’s limited breakfast spots, Waco’s newest restaurant, The Egg & I, will offer an eccentric home-style breakfast and lunch spot.
The restaurant, set to open Monday, will serve interesting additions to the typical egg and sausage breakfast with vegetables such as asparagus, avocados and artichokes, breaking from the typical Texas breakfast with a healthier side.
Most people don’t decide what they want to do in life at age 3. For others, the course of their life is decided as soon as they pick up a pencil, put it to a piece of paper, and realize, in that instant, that being an artist is what they were meant to do.
