The United States has been one of the world’s leading countries in terms of scientific innovation throughout the past few decades. This would not be possible without the over $400 billion our government invested in research and development grants. It is no surprise that the University of Wisconsin-Madison is a major contender for this money as it is one of the nation’s top research universities with an over $2 billion endowment in the year of 2013.

Taylor Swift has done it again. Here I am, listening to a country album, tapping my foot to every tune and actually enjoying it. I should never admit this, but I love Taylor Swift's songs. My roommates are never going to let me live this down, but the truth is she's a remarkably talented songwriter, whose lyrics are as eloquent as her guitar riffs are catchy. I would love to have the kind of chops this girl has on her latest offering, Speak Now.
Eighteen years ago in preparation for Thanksgiving, each student in Ms. Puetz's four-year-old kindergarten class had to tell their teacher the one thing they were most thankful for. Some said their mom or their dad. Others said their pet hamster. Still others said their best friend or their favorite toy.
The No. 22 Wisconsin men's wrestling team (1-0 Big Ten, 4-1 overall) is set to square off against the No. 7 Iowa Hawkeyes (0-0, 6-3) tonight in the Badgers' Big Ten home-opener. The dual meet is highly anticipated, after last year's meeting included two overtime matches, both lost by the Badgers, and the Hawkeye's escaping with a five-point win.
While UW-Madison students enjoyed the final rays of summer over Labor Day weekend, our collegiate counterparts affected by Hurricane Katrina and its aftermath were picking up the pieces of their preempted fall semesters and contemplating the short- and long-term futures of their academic careers.

So, the hard-working management and dedicated staff of The Daily Cardinal today send the 112th volume off to bed. And I have the distinct privilege of singing a lullaby.
Over the past few months, I have heaped tons of criticism on the president for his decision to invade Iraq. And those criticisms stand. But this does not mean I think the President of the United States is always wrong.
On Sunday, the Associated Press released a profile piece on Sen. Rick Santorum, R-Pa.-the third-highest ranking Republican in the Senate, and a man who White House political director Ken Mehlman called \one of the original compassionate conservatives."" The article outlined his path to power-first as a congressman from Pittsburgh, then as a brash Senate candidate that rode the Contract With America wave to victory in 1994, then as a matured Senator at the top levels of prestige and influence.
After the fall of Baghdad, right-wing commentators-Republicans in Congress, Washington think-tank fellows and directors, essayists for newsmagazines, what have you-streamed onto cable news channels. And in the process of proclaiming their unbridled joy, some of them began to demand pounds of flesh from those opposed to the war.

In the past few days, a great deal of attention has been given to Peter Arnett's controversial appearance on Iraq's state-run television network. In an interview Sunday, Arnett said the resistance of the Iraqi armed forces to the invasion has caused military planners to rethink their strategy, and also that a rise in the number of civilian causalities would cause the war to be \challenged very strongly.""
It might be useful, at this stage, to take a step back from the war and examine how our nation came to this pass.

Here--unedited--are the opening lines of their piece.
This weekend, I had some amount of trouble coming up with a point of discussion for this week's commentary. Thankfully, however, the other student newspaper bailed me out.
