You and your partner have been together for a while now and intimacy is becoming slightly too routine. Not to worrÂy–this is an issue many couples face sooner or later.

The sticky subject of lubricants
Lubrication is an essential part of intercourse–not just if the well runs dry from time to time. Because the world of off-the-shelf personal lubricants can seem limitless and rather intimidating, many people choose to either ignore this sexual aid altogether or find some slippery household substance to try. Trust me, the former isn’t very fun,… Continue reading The sticky subject of lubricants
SU update
By Dale Miller
The Students’ Union attempted to do great things this week. Unfortunately this included unconstitutional legislation. After over a month of toil, SU President Bryan West brought his revised election bylaws to the Students’ Legislative Council to be muddied and confused with a flurry of on-the-fly amendments. The SU decided to revise the election bylaws so… Continue reading SU update
Playoff fever
By Russ Dyck
The National Lacrosse League playoff race is a hard road to travel to the championship. One loss anywhere along the way and you’re out. That’s it. You don’t have to lose four games to lose the series–there is no series, just a single game each round. That meant all the Calgary Roughnecks needed was a… Continue reading Playoff fever

A convenient excuse
You’ve heard it in songs, watched it in movies, used it as an excuse. “It” is the cliche “long distance relationships are too hard.” As the school year ends, this phrase becomes somewhat of a mantra around campus. This mantra has been my own in a number of situations. I once struggled through long distance… Continue reading A convenient excuse
Are pro cyclists all dopes?
By Dale Miller
Pro cycling is addled with dope. I’m sure some would argue against that statement, and I’m sure there are a couple of riders in the pro peloton who abstain. But with all of the fiascos, deaths and confessions that have popped up lately, I don’t see how the majority of pro cyclists can possibly be… Continue reading Are pro cyclists all dopes?
The dilemma of living in the past
I have a friend who has kept every greeting card she’s ever received. I have another friend who barely tears the envelope before tossing its contents. Each of these habits is demonstrative of a particular worldview. While some people struggle to hold onto the past and, as the cliche goes, “keep their memories alive,” there… Continue reading The dilemma of living in the past
All that glitters isn’t Gilchrist
By James Keller
The Students’ Legislative Council was wrong in imposing censure on Students’ Union President Jayna Gilchrist Tue., Mar. 20. But the president performed worse. The motion to censure, brought forward by external commissioner Jim Bailey, was apparently sparked by Gilchrist’s absence to attend a screening of Discordia that same evening. The film examined the conflict at… Continue reading All that glitters isn’t Gilchrist
