Forget sexy. Mike Busley is bringing pie back. “If it weren’t for grandmas, I don’t know that we would know what real pie tastes like,” said Busley, founder of Grand Traverse Pie Company. “Unless grandma makes you one, the pie you’re buying at Meijer or Kroger was probably mass-produced in California and shipped to you on a freezer truck.”
While junior wide receiver Devin Thomas was busy fielding questions from the media about his four catch, 156-yard performance that included a touchdown last Saturday against Bowling Green, senior defensive end Ervin Baldwin made the receiver who was almost impossible to stop do just that.As Baldwin was exiting the press trailer, he exclaimed “showtime,” referring to Thomas’ nickname.

I listen to old music and enjoy watching old movies. I was brought up that way and haven’t seen much of a reason to change. I’m a classic rocker and a ’70s film watcher.
Let me first thank Navy veteran Matt Patton for his service to our country. But his recent letter, Patriotism became a fad after terrorist attacks (SN 9/11), caused me some concern. Patton feels that following Sept. 11, 2001, patriotism gripped our nation and now fears its effects are wearing thin on the American public once again. But Patton is mistaken, for it was not patriotism that spread over the nation on Sept. 12 but rather nationalism. The American public did not revere in the principles upon which this nation was founded. Instead, people slapped stickers of flags on their cars while screaming, “My country, right or wrong!” This was not, and will never be, patriotism.
Just over six years ago, the first major attack on American soil since Pearl Harbor left our citizens in a state of shock with subsequent waves of fear and anxiety. The country never seemed so united, behind a president who, back then, had a shred of credibility.
The editorial East Village project dragging on for too long (SN 9/4) included a number of misperceptions and misunderstandings about the East Village project. This project was conceived jointly by East Lansing and MSU, and we both are very committed to providing improved living opportunities within this new project for everyone. It will include graduate students, those seeking owner-occupied options and undergraduate students seeking to live, work and play in what is sure to become one of the most exciting attractions this region has seen.

Amitesh Devic works, eats and sleeps in Lansing, and even pays taxes to the state that go toward funding for MSU. So he wants to know: Why is he considered an out-of-state student? Devic, who moved to the area in 2004 to live with his girlfriend, Amanda, pays more than $400 in additional tuition fees per credit hour than a student the university considers to be in-state.
City officials are looking forward to turning the Virginia Avenue area into a family-friendly haven, rather than the student-populated block it is now.
They have become more popular than both songs and their music videos. So much so, that most record labels and MTV and BET, offer them. If you have not guessed yet, I’m talking about the recent obsession with ringtones.
