Bastille Day is the Fourth of July flipped upside down and painted an odd shade of chartreuse. Dating back a little over two centuries, this odd holiday celebrates the storming of the Bastille, a French prison, in 1789 marking the start of the French Revolution.

What does a blonde do after her boyfriend dumps her? She, like, totally goes to Harvard. And then, like, wins a high-profile murder case.

Summer is here, and everyone is tired of the eating at the worst McDonald's in the continental 48 states.

It seems that the music industry has reached a point where the nu-metal bands are as formulaic as boy bands.

The Godfather it isn't, but when Brando and DeNiro team up, something has to go right. Throw Edward Norton into the mix and a movie should seemingly make itself.

For a long time now, Street has wanted to find a story with grit. We wanted something meaty, something our readers could sink their teeth into, walking away with a broader view of the world we live in. Failing that--lacking the time, money and initiative, our editors found a couple of free Backstreet Boys tickets and plenty of Jack Daniels, enough of both to go undercover at the Tweeter Center and into the seedy underbelly of the junior high, pop-star obsessed braces wearing, Wet Seal shoppin,' not old enough for a learner's permit, 12 year old girl. Preparing for the concert was a lesson in adolecesnce in itself.

Unable to see the writing on the wall, it seems like Stereo MC's are no longer connected--their scene came and went nearly a decade ago with their 1992 dance hit, "Connected." Dance music has become a more fragmented and sophisticated genre in the past ten years, moving past The MC's hip-hopped techno sound.

The latest census survey shows their numbers have more than doubled in the past ten years, Consumer Reports marks them as one of the largest minorities to target market and their media influence is on an exponential growth spurt.

While it was the better-known Dido that most came to see at Camden's Tweeter Center last Friday, special guest Travis gave a surprisingly impressive performance to the full amphitheater comfortably filled with faithful "chick flick" movie-goers. Together, the two acts made the concert's price of admission worth its cost.

Who will you root for? Neither after seeing this disgrace. The cats and dogs can duke it out until they are all one big furry mess it won't change the fact that this movie blows.

Carter Cornell has been murdered, and its a good thing too because listening to his less than wiley machinations for any longer would have made for a very boring play.

How does one review a film like Scary Movie 2? If I was reviewing the first one, I could talk about how it breaks new ground in showing how screwed up the MPAA ratings system is.

For the masses, indeed! Depeche Mode made the scene at Philadelphia's First Union Center Saturday night touring for their new album, Exciter, which is their most recent release since 1990's Violator.

To an empty stomach and a thin wallet, nothing says satiation quite like an Indian buffet. No wait, no menu-ordering anxiety, no boredom waiting around for food to arrive.

Barnes & Noble has been so successful at selling college textbooks, taking over campus bookstores everywhere that now it's trying its hand at offering courses online at none-other-than www.barnesandnobleunive rsity.com. Unlike its predecessor, this corporate takeover doesn't have to in-debt students in the process.

Hey kids! Did you like the 80's? Do you still play The Legend of Zelda on your old Nintendo? Do you remember and cherish G.I.

Avenue Artists 2001 is a summer tradition on the Avenue of the Arts. The idea behind it is this: every Friday afternoon until August 17, a different artist will put on a free lunchtime open-air concert on a different corner along S.
