This season, Wisconsin men’s hockey has been defined by seconds.
After four months of ups and downs, buzzer beaters and heartbreaking defeats, we are finally here. March Madness has finally arrived. But before you toss yet another tear-soaked bracket into the trash following Thursdays opening round of games (yes I still call them opening round games because that’s what they are; Tuesday’s play-in games do not constitute a “first round”), take a step back and look at just how wide open this year’s tournament is.
One could almost think that home wins over top-10 teams and dominating Michigan State outside of East Lansing might lose a bit of their luster with how common it has become for Wisconsin.
The Wisconsin men's basketball team did not enter its season with particularly high expectations, but under the direction of head coach Bo Ryan, the team proved it was a major threat to teams across the nation. Despite a slow start and the possibility of missing the NCAA Tournament, men's basketball finished strong with solid victories to qualify for postseason play. And men's basketball highlighted its season in the first round of the NCAA Tournament, beating No. 5 seeded Florida State, a team which was only a week removed from winning against eventual National Champion North Carolina.
Leaders on opposite sides of the inclusionary zoning issue traded ideas for the future of the controversial ordinance Wednesday at a Dane County Public Affairs Council meeting.
8:45 a.m. is apparently too early for most patrons of the indoor Dane County Farmers' Market. Just before 9 a.m. Saturday, fewer than a dozen dedicated early-risers stood in line at the Madison Senior Center, 330 W. Mifflin St., to wait for their $7 organic breakfasts. A smattering of shoppers wandered among the few remaining vendors.
'Tis the season!
Whether your candy preferences tend toward the sumptuous cocoa swirls of the movie \Chocolat"" or the bizarrely endearing Gobstoppers of ""Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory,"" you'll find it hard to resist the sugary lures of Twee & Luliloo.
Despite all the jokes and puzzlement surrounding the fact that State Street is home to not just one, but two burrito joints; despite the fact that Chipotle moved in one year ago a mere block away from Qdoba; despite the fact that many students see both places as corporate giants taking away from the unique character of State Street-Moe's has somehow made it in.
It seems only proper that the little building at 1225 Regent St., former home of the scrappy hot dog joint Dog Eat Dog, would retain its independent streak even with a change in ownership. Those mourning the loss of the greasy Chicago-style haven can drown their sorrows in espresso and other libations at Indie Coffee, the java shop now taking Dog Eat Dog's place.
Hungry newbies, listen up. Whether you're a freshman, a transfer student or just not real observant, you'll need to learn the tricks to eating well (or at least cheap) here at UW-Madison. Our fine isthmus abounds in classy cuisine options, but that hardly matters when you're stuck in the dorms and dirt poor. Never fear-the Cardinal comes through with a few food guidelines to dull the pain when you're missing Mom's free cooking.
After spending a week in France, almost any aspect of Madison is bound to seem pale and uninteresting by comparison. A dull Lake Mendota cannot possibly compete with the romantic Mediterranean coast; sensible, flat Midwestern shoes replace Parisian women's sky-high stiletto heels; even the Capitol dome seems a shoddy piece of architecture compared to the glittering spectacle of the Eiffel Tower. Worst of all, the return to dorm food after seven days of French cuisine is downright depressing. This week, your Cardinal food editor describes some savory morsels from her week in Montpellier, in hopes of inspiring a Toppers-weary student body to seek out its own culinary excitement right here in Madtown.

It is the day after Thanksgiving. The kitchen is in ruins, random family members are passed out in the living room due to overindulgences of various kinds and you feel like even looking at another slice of pumpkin pie will make your pants size skyrocket. Still, that does not stop you from opening the fridge and deciding you really should make good use out of all those leftovers-and soon. But wait: Instead of slapping dried-out, days-old turkey between two halves of a leftover dinner roll and eating cranberry sauce straight out of the can, check out some area chefs' suggestions for using up your Thanksgiving extras. After all, you cannot live on mashed potato sandwiches for a week straight.
With the passage of a bill prohibiting gay marriage in Wisconsin and controversy bubbling in the Anglican church over New Hampshire's newly installed gay bishop, Wayne Besen's Madison appearance seems especially timely.
With tuition up 18 percent, class sizes rising to claustrophobic proportions and fewer course options on the spring timetable, the $83.7 million Camp Randall renovation project appears unfair to some UW-Madison students.
The cultural chasm between university administrators and undergraduate students is hard to visualize if those administrators are anything like Dean of Students Luoluo Hong.
With public outcry mounting over rising costs of war in Iraq and American deaths almost daily since the end of major combat operations, public relations for the Bush administration are in overdrive.
Looking at tuition increases nationwide, including a 18 percent increase at UW-Madison, a California legislator has newly revised his plan to penalize colleges for substantially raising tuition, which would prevent those colleges from receiving certain forms of federal aid.
