HE-MAN AND THE MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE: VOLUME ONE

There is only one context in which it is acceptable for an enormous white man to yell "I HAVE THE POWERRR!" and this is it. This 2003 Emmy Award-winning remake doesn't feel like Hollywood is gauging your childhood memories, but now all of the unintentionally hilarious dialogue is impossible to ignore. "My Doom Seeker has detected the crack!" Tri-Clops exclaims, to which Skeletor replies, "Now we know where to apply the pressure!" Awesome. The best part is the overwrought life lessons that run as 30-second segments after each episode. He-Man just threw somebody off a cliff, but damn it all if he doesn't look both ways before crossing the street.

Cold rain couldn't douse MIT's recent Senior House Steer Roast, the infamous two-day dorm barbecue with mud wrestling, bands, and tons of all-night-roasted beef roasted overnight. The annual event is open to members of the MIT community and guests, but not necessarily to the press, so we (yes, the royal we) went as a party-loving citizen.
