BLOOMINGTON, Ind.-During the final week of conference competition, No. 14 Wisconsin did all it could to make the race for the Big Ten title as interesting as possible.
Sometime in the last five years, I became intensely aware of just how rude and inconsiderate many moviegoers are. Without fail, I always manage to sit next to some complete moron that's just begging for a swift tire-iron upside the head. People pay up to $10 to go see a film in a theater and then act no differently than if it were playing in their comfy living room. So, in the vein of stand-up comedian George Carlin's bit \Complaints and Grievances,"" here's a simple list of movie-goers who oughta be killed.

When the No. 11 Wisconsin Badgers (5-1 Big Ten, 14-3 Overall) tip-off against the Minnesota Gophers (0-7, 8-11) Wednesday night at the Kohl Center, the Badgers will be in a spot slightly unfamiliar this season all alone atop the Big Ten standings.

By the late 18th century, France already had over 250,000 different units of measurements in regular use for scientific and commercial activities. The confusion among so many measuring units perpetuated fraud, hampered commerce and limited communication within France and its neighbors.
In the late '90s, Califone formed from the ashes of the respected blues influenced indie-rock band Red Red Meat. Since then, the band has been building up a loyal following, independently releasing albums on frontman Tim Rutili's record label, Perishable. The band's upcoming excellent album, Quicksand/Cradlesnakes, their first released by the seminal Thrill Jockey record label, is a mellow symphony of piano, strings, banjos, distortion and laptops that fans of Wilco's Yankee Hotel Foxtrot should feel right at home with. The Cardinal recently talked to Rutili about the band's new album and upcoming tour with label mates the Sea and Cake.
\Judgment week"" has arrived in men's college basketball and the UW team is staring down a daunting challenge. The Badgers (9-4 Big Ten, 19-6 overall) play host to the Michigan Wolverines (9-3, 16-9) at the Kohl Center tonight.
In his novel \Love in the Time of Cholera,"" Gabriel Garcia Marquez writes of a man, Florentino Ariza, who has been in love with a married woman for more than 50 years. During that time he has had hundreds of liaisons, but in his heart he remains true to his love and waits patiently until he can be with her. In a way I can relate to poor Florentino Ariza, at least with regards to music. Although my heart remains faithful to Stephen Malkmus, my ears have strayed during the long wait until the release of his new album, Pig Lib. Even with its March release date in sight, I was unable to resist the temptations offered by other recent releases.
On Saturday afternoon, Head Coach Bo Ryan kept on doing what he has done for the past 13 games in Madison: winning. Ryan's determined Badgers (8-3 Big Ten, 18-5-overall) rallied to defeat a talented and underachieving Indiana team (5-6, 15-9) 71-59, and in doing so, are making the Kohl Center one of the most feared places to play in the Big Ten.
