Perched in sunburst chairs at the Memorial Union Terrace, visitors admire the view of Lake Mendota and its expansive shoreline. The surface is smooth as glass on a calm day, but beneath, an invasive species runs rampant.
Spring is finally here again, and with the (slightly) warmer weather comes the frantic search for summer internships and post-graduation jobs. As the cover letters turn into interviews, stress levels get higher as we try to control and perfect every factor that employers look at when considering whom to hire. Of course, they look at your resume and carefully consider your credentials and recommendations. However, the first impression that you give in a face-to-face interview can often be a make-or-break moment in any industry. Are you dressed for success? Your interview attire could be the solution to your internship or job hunt.
Sex. Now that I have your attention, what do you think is better than X-rated adult movies? If after five minutes of racking your brain and scratching at inappropriate places you could not come up with an answer, shame on you. But I can tell you that five-minute long sexually explicit films made by ordinary people like us—next time you’re on the bus, it’s a good bet that the people next to you are among them—definitely is a winner.
Death’s a bitch, isn’t it? The idea that one day you’re a happy-go-lucky guy playing Ultimate Frisbee and the next a pile of ashes being scattered into Lake Monona by relatives whose next stop is IHOP for chocolate chip pancakes is crazy to me. To those of us who just can’t get on board with belief in an afterlife (Heaven doesn’t sound so bad, but can you imagine waking up in a boat on the River Styx with Hades’ minions prodding you in the ass?), death is a pretty freaky proposition.
Friday, Feb. 21, a sold-out Majestic Theater was ready to escape the brutal reality of this midwestern winter with a triple bill featuring New Beat Fund, RDGLDGRN and Aer. Starting at 8:00 p.m., the standing room filled with fans in Hawaiian shirts and flowered dresses, eager to forget about the negative wind-chill outside.
Bandcamp.com might be my favorite website. In its version of a free market music economy—which is free to use, requires no subscription and lets anyone upload music—objectively superior music rises to the top of the pool, as popularity is controlled entirely by listeners, not big-time record labels. Every week I scour this site, looking for not-yet-famous artists making stellar sounds. Here are some of my favorite new releases:
In what is normally a battle for the top of the Big Ten conference, the No. 14 Wisconsin (4-4 Big Ten, 17-4 overall) and No. 24 Ohio State (3-5, 16-5) men’s basketball teams will meet under different circumstances Saturday.
1790- The first boat specializing as a lifeboat is tested on the River Tyne. The boat, made of cotton cloth and fish scales, sinks immediately.
Sport, at its best, gives us a glimpse into the world as it could be. Pure. Beautiful. At its worst, and all too often, it reflects back at us the world as it is.
Alternate side parking restrictions will begin at 1 a.m. Friday throughout Madison, Wis., which will require residents to park their cars on the odd numbered house side of the street starting Thursday evening.
Wooo, how about those midterms? I bet they were so fun! Anyway, while you were all studying, I was busy compiling a list of new (and very important and very useful and very funny, goddamnit) words for you all to use in your post-failure, or whatever, worlds. Thank me after your once irreconcilably stagnant daze of an existence is immediately turned up by these boss ways to define ur lyfe.
Imagine an underwater army of crustaceous lumberjacks chopping down the kelp forests on the floor bed of lakes with their large pincers. This isn’t something out of a science-fiction movie. This is how the Rusty Crayfish, an invasive species from Ohio River Basin, essentially deforested Sparkling Lake in Vilas County, Wisconsin.
Dear Atlanta Braves,
The Daily Cardinal and other student media were invited Tuesday to tour Phase One of the Memorial Union Reinvestment Project, which is expected to finish in summer 2014.

Southeast Myths
Most people on the University of Wisconsin-Madison campus walk past the old, three-story brick building along Lakeshore path without a second thought. On the outside, it looks like an abandoned warehouse used for storing lab equipment or boats from Lake Mendota in the winter. What is actually inside is more surprising: a nano-technology development lab that could change life as we know it.
Go out on the lake (both during summer and winter)
A local entrepreneur hoping to bring a rental facility for outdoor recreational equipment and a gourmet cafe to Lake Monona’s shore in Brittingham Park received preliminary city approval Monday.
