Sometimes humorous, sometimes serious, but always impassioned, the Rev. Al Sharpton ignited a capacity crowd yesterday in the Memorial Union Theater as part of the Distinguished Lecture Series.

It was a spring day like any other on the UW-Madison campus. The sun was shining, the snow was melting (and freezing again) and the birds were nowhere to be found-they had the foresight to study abroad in Mexico. I was my usual self, walking back from class-tired and thinking of the delicious mocha high that would bring me through yet another day.
The bad blood between the Badgers and the Gophers has existed for years. In fact, the battle between the two furry mammals has gone on for 113 years in Division I football.
An endless stream of commentators have spent the last few years pointing out that the Bush administration's war on terror, not to mention its entirely unrelated war on Iraq, are enormous failures that have alienated Muslims and strengthened al-Qaida. Now the Pentagon is saying it too. The Defense Science Board Task Force on Strategic Communication, a Pentagon task force on the \struggle for hearts and minds"" of the Muslim world in the global war on terrorism, has reported, ""American efforts have not only failed, they may also have achieved the opposite of what they intended.""

Minnesota and Wisconsin have one of the oldest and greatest rivalries in college sports history, and this weekend another chapter of that rivalry will be written-both on the turf and on the ice. The disturbing part is that two teams from two of the major revenue-producing sports and two of the more popular sports are being played in two separate cities.
Going into Saturday's final Camp Randall contest of the year against Minnesota, the Badgers seem to have it all. They claim an undefeated record, have one of the nation's top defenses and are ranked fourth and fifth in the nation. However, Wisconsin is determined to claim ownership of one more thing-the Paul Bunyan Axe.
Listening to players and coaches, you wouldn't know they are approaching their final home game of the season.
