Dear Netflix Instant Watch,

Sigourney Weaver delivers wisdom and laughter at Saint Mary's

The theme from "Ghostbusters" began playing Monday night in Moreau Theater as the crowd filtered in. The rhythmic clapping began immediately, not led by the students in attendance, but mostly by the more "mature" crowd — even a few of the Sisters of the Holy Cross were in the audience. It was more than obvious the sold-out theater was psyched for Sigourney Weaver.

#celebtweets

Twitter is one of the most popular websites on the planet, a social network and micro-blogging platform that has 200 million users. Many people who claim Twitter is stupid cite the fact that they do not care what you are doing at any given time, and there is some merit in that argument. But famous people also use Twitter, and Americans enjoy few things more than knowing what famous people are doing.

Andy Warhol comes to ND

When you think of Andy Warhol, one of the first images that pops into your head is probably a Campbell's Soup can or an image of Marilyn Monroe.  And the PopArt pioneer is best known for these images.  An exhibit at the Snite Museum, which runs through Nov. 13, offers a look into a unique and relatively unknown side of Warhol with the exhibit, Warhol's Camera.

Moneyball scores big by going beyond baseball

"Moneyball" missed being the best movie of the summer by a measly two days. Since it was released on Sept. 23, it is technically in the "fall" category. Which is too bad, because it would have easily been the best movie of the summer, redeeming a lackluster season for Hollywood.

Laura Marling is bringing new life to the indie folk genre with a new album and tour

Laura Marling, recent winner of the Best Female Solo Artist award at the 2011 Brit Awards, is one of the most successful and well-regarded musical acts in the UK. Unfortunately, her star hasn't risen to that level on this side of the Atlantic yet. Hopefully, though, that will change with the release of her third full studio album, "A Creature I Don't Know."

Drive Thrills Audiences

"Drive" is the kind of movie that makes you feel at least 45 percent cooler as you're leaving the theater.

Footpath Freedom

I am a big fan of ease and efficiency. My motto is "if you can get there faster, why not?" This is probably a result of my constant miscalculation of the time it takes to get places and always needing to make up time, but it works for me. This is why the black metal fences that have sprung up across campus have really been killing me.

Things to do in South Bend

Subkirke is a bright spot in South Bend's musical landscape. The resident concert venue at the South Bend Christian Reformed Church (SBCRC) has been growing steadily since it began in 2009 and now brings small, mostly indie, bands in nearly every week.
