As the cast of "Pentecost," bowed to the audience, tears were still gleaming in each of their eyes. They were emotional because of the harsh reality that the epic play portrayed. While the cold kept some of the UConn community indoors, it could not deter anyone in the enthusiastic crowd from showing up at The Jorgensen Center for the Performing Arts Thursday, and for good reason.

When finals come around, it's no surprise that students look for the best way to relieve stress. At UConn, the resources on campus are plentiful and provide students with the help that they need. This is why many students gathered together at Towers Dining Hall to listen to Joleen Nevers, the Health Education Complex director, on different ways to release the stresses they have due to demanding college final exam schedules.

The comedy of the year is finally on DVD! With Michael Cera (Juno, Arrested Development) and Jonah Hill (Accepted, Knocked Up) as two nerdy high school students spending time trying to get with girls and get some alcohol, the perfect mix between gross slapstick comedy and sweetness, the movie fills the tall order of being one of the, if not the funniest comedy of the year.

Although a deluge of titles normally see release during November in order to capitalize on the Black Friday market rush, this year has had a notable amount of titles that are sure to be on most gamers' holiday wish list. Personally, I believe the holiday season began in August with the release of 2K's "Bioshock," a high-minded first-person shooter (FPS) about an Ayn Rand-inspired utopian underwater colony called Rapture gone terribly wrong.
