Bwoglines: Go Ahead, Use Your Card

By Bwog Staff on Nov 08, 2009 1 Comments

A few Upper East Side restaurants–including one called One Fish Two Fish (really?!)–refuse to make deliveries 15 blocks north in East Harlem. (New York Post) Though they complain when you whip out your debit card, cab drivers are actually growing to love the pay-by-card system. (New York Times) Sweet justice! A man accused of plagiarizing […]

Yeah, About That Football Season…

By Bwog Staff on Nov 07, 2009 5 Comments

Another game, another long list of turnovers: Three fumbles and three interceptions, several at crucial times, doomed the Lions to another Ivy league loss, 34-14 to Harvard. The Crimson (now 5-0 in Ivy play) sprinted out to a 21-0 lead in the first quarter, but not without help: first, Columbia (1-4 Ivy, 2-6 overall) fumbled […]

By Bwog Staff on Nov 07, 2009 19 Comments

Tired as the “poor college student” cliché may be, it’s based on some unfortunate reality. And, since heavens knows we can’t depend on the meal-plan to keep us happy, healthy, and free of scurvy, Bwog presents the smart shopper’s guide to getting stuff college students really want for cheap. Got suggestions for stores (within walking […]

Netflix: “Left-wing, Communist, Jewish, Homosexual Pornographers” Edition

By Bwog Staff on Nov 07, 2009 5 Comments

Mark Hay may not be a native New Yorker, but he’s taking steps in the right direction. Bloomberg wins New York. Sometimes it is hard to understand the city we live in. But certainly the last week, the introspection brought about by Bloomberg’s hegemony and victory, has given me the time to realize that, torn […]

“Family and Other Strangers” Proves Strange, Intriguing

By Bwog Staff on Nov 07, 2009 2 Comments

Bwog’s very own stand-up comedian theater connoisseur Dane Cook reports from the premier. This weekend’s production of Family and Other Strangers, put on by King’s Crown Shakespeare Troupe, defers from the Bard for a moment to showcase the writing of Edward Albee. Pairing two of Albee’s earliest one-act plays, the show is a satirical ride […]

Bwoglines: It’s All About the Trade-offs

By Bwog Staff on Nov 07, 2009 0 Comments

Columbia students get luxury housing– a borough away. Grad students, that is. (NYT) Miller moves to the SoA, takes the Arts Initiative with it. Some are outraged, some aren’t. (Spec) Cue Lit Hum nostalgia (does that exist?) – Jane Austen would have been the coolest aunt ever. (NYT) New York wants to be like Paris; […]

By Bwog Staff on Nov 06, 2009 3 Comments

Looking for a new window onto our urban culture, Bwog’s Lexicography Bureau Chief Hannah Goldstein found herself yesterday in the Maison Française, where she was promptly encouraged to read the dictionary. As it turns out, that was a great idea. Christian Topalov is a man of many words – three hundred of them, to be […]

Friday Sports Preview: Fall Sports Wind Down

By Bwog Staff on Nov 06, 2009 0 Comments

Football: Ok, so actually football’s somewhat the exception to early November being the end of fall sports; the team’s season does not finish until November 21. And if the team wants to have a chance at finishing that season with a .500 record overall, they’ll need to win big tomorrow against a Harvard team that […]

Free Food: Miracle on 113th Street

By Bwog Staff on Nov 06, 2009 5 Comments

If the New York Times had it right, the McBain first floor lounge will resound this afternoon with the threefold cry of “oh, oh, oh,” whereupon its occupiers will become “literally like wild animals, tearing apart everything on the table.” No, this is not a demonstration of what life would be like without the Core […]

LectureHop – Pakistan-India: What’s Next?

By Bwog Staff on Nov 06, 2009 35 Comments

Looking to get his fill of international conflict, Kashmir Bureau Chief Mark Hay grabbed a chair in the Satow Room last night for “Pakistan-India: What’s Next?” November 26 will mark a somber anniversary – one year since the coordinated terrorist attacks of the Pakistani group Lashkar-e-Taiba ripped through the Indian city of Mumbai, paralyzing both […]

Lerner Survives a Decade of Hate

By Bwog Staff on Nov 06, 2009 9 Comments

Well, what do you know! Alfred Lerner Hall is having a birthday, and you’re all invited! It’s been ten years since the much-maligned student center first opened. There’s no cake, but there’s a banner and several photos from Lerner’s younger years taped to the glass. And praise be, they’re visible from the outside as […]

Bwoglines: A Touch of Morning Sickness

By Bwog Staff on Nov 06, 2009 5 Comments

I-Bankers have all the fun, and get all the H1N1 flu vaccine! At least their profession isn’t lucrative. (NY Mag) New York never got its pneumatic subway system… at least we’ve got our iPhones. (Spec) National unemployment has risen to 10.2%, the highest since 1983; at least we can blog about it. (Gothamist) How about […]
