Vox turns 10

Happy 10th birthday to us — kind of. Although Vox is officially turning 10, our evolution can be traced back more than 30 years, when vox was still only another esoteric Latin word. In the spirit of celebrating our future by remembering our past, we have dusted off the archives, tracked down some of our history and examined our lifelong relationship with MU’s School of Journalism.

Viagra turns 10

Some of the world’s greatest inventions were unintentional. Frisbees. Post-its. Oh, and Viagra. In testing a drug that might lower blood pressure, Pfizer researchers discovered an eyebrow-raising side effect: Test subjects reported longer-lasting erections. Voila: Viagra. This year, the blue pill celebrates its 10th birthday.

Sex and the sequels

In 1998, Americans experienced the impeachment of a president, the battle of the boy bands, a Major League Baseball home run frenzy and, perhaps most importantly of all, the beginning of Sex and the City. Even after the final season in 2004, this HBO series is still the obsession of television-lovers everywhere. A number of elements combine to create the allure that is Sex and the City — and if these aren’t enough, there’s always the movie coming out May 30.

Magazine mortalities

Be careful what you subscribe to. Magazines are failing at rates so quickly that the “12 issues for just $19.95” special might not make it past two.
