Opinions: Russia’s recent missile strike on Ukraine rolls the dice with nuclear war

Warheads from a Russian intermediate range ballistic missile blazed through the sky over Ukraine on the night of Nov. 21. Glowing with heat as they reentered Earth’s atmosphere, the warheads rained down on the city of Dnipro which is home to over 900,000 people.

Despite the previous use of shorter range, conventional, non-nuclear, ballistic missiles in the Ukraine war by both Russia and Ukraine, this attack continues a dangerous precedent of normalizing nuclear brinkmanship set by Russia.

Sports: Despite defeat, with a young roster, Mountain Lions look prepared to return.

The De Anza Men’s Soccer team season came to an end with a 2-0 loss against Butte College in the second round of NorCal Regionals on Saturday Nov. 23. The team expressed optimism for next season.

Butte scored the first goal in minute 21 when a handball in the goalie box gave Elias Stingl (Butte No. 4) the opportunity for a penalty kick, placing the ball in the bottom left corner of the net. The second goal came in the 49th minute, with Matteo Di Gennaro (Butte No. 21), dribbling in from the left and delivering a strike to the top right corner. The goal was assisted by Shahin Adwan (Butte No. 97).

Arts & Entertainment review: do you want to get “Lost” after finals?

If you need an escape from reality, book a ticket on flight 815

Finals are coming to an end, and in these trying times sometimes all you need is an escape. So let me be your TV guide and recommend just the show to be your antidote: “Lost.”

Similar to the crash landing in the novel “Lord of the Flies,” by William Golding, the first seasons of the show detail the 108 days the unlucky passengers of Oceanic flight 815 spend stranded on an unknown island after crashing.

The Nobel Peace Prize awarded on Oct. 11 to nuclear bomb survivors known as “Hibakusha” brings back into focus a crucial issue: the persistent threat of nuclear warfare.

The Hibakusha who lived through the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki have spent decades sharing their stories and their message is clear: the devastation of nuclear weapons must never be repeated. Yet, as the global landscape grows more tense, one must wonder, is the world truly listening?

The bike program is one of the many student-oriented programs that provide resources to make college life easier. The Environmental Sustainability Committee held a workshop on Nov. 26 in the Hinson Campus Center, where two committee members presented slides discussing the benefits of the program.

Minseo Kim, 20, economics major and ESC member, coordinates the bike program while Michi Ozaki, 20, computer science major and chair of environmental sustainability, oversees it. The main goal of the workshop was to inform more students of its existence so they can utilize it next quarter.
