Eritrean-Canadian Badger runner junior Simon Bairu is a waif.
There is no other way to describe his physique. Watching him run is
almost funny. He does not have the most graceful stride; his arms
often cross his chest and he is slightly duck-footed. Put simply,
he does not necessarily look like an elite runner. He's not all
sharp angles and tendons. Rather, as fellow teammate junior Bobby
Lockhart often says, Bairu looks \soft."" But these impressions beg
the question: Just how in the hell did Bairu win the NCAA national
title at muddy Terre Haute, Ind., last week?

Yesterday's Alcohol License Review Committee meeting served up
many items for discussion. Perhaps the most appealing of these for
UW students is the proposed Performing Arts Venue License, which
enables those 18 and older to enjoy musical events at nightclub
establishments. While it still remains a proposal, the committee's
mention of ASM's petition for this license, which contains about
500 signatures, will count in their final decision.

Pixar has set a new standard for animation in Hollywood. \Toy
Story"" and ""Monsters, Inc."" lent new humor and insight to
childhood narratives, and ""Finding Nemo"" stole Disney's title as
the home studio of beloved talking animals. But now, with ""The
Incredibles,"" it must be embarrassing to be any other animation
studio. Pixar has not only made another instant-classic family
feature, but they have created a classic suitable for any
audience.

Freshman forward Ryan Suter smashed the blade of his stick on
the ice. Unhappy with the outcome, he smashed it again, this time a
little harder. This time it broke. The stick still in one piece, he
was still not satisfied. To cap things off he snapped it in half
over his knee.

Gov. Jim Doyle has not backed down amid accusations by
representatives of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration that he is
breaking the law in his efforts to obtain cheaper prescription
drugs for Wisconsin citizens.

\Welcome to Mooseport"" is merely mildly amusing when it very
well could have been uproarious. Although the film depends on the
mismatch between Gene Hackman's dignity and Ray Romano's charm,
there is not much else here. Those two characters take the movie as
far as it can go but are drowned out by too many secondary
performers who are little more than annoying voices or
buffoons.

From the emo songs that exploit emotions rather than convey them
to the lyrical disasters that solely reiterate \I love to look at
you,"" ""I love to touch you"" or just flat out ""I love you,"" the
love song seems like a dying art form.

Alan Lightman is capable of more than \Reunion."" His early
triumph, ""Einstein's Dreams,"" showed the considerable talents of
the professor at the Massachussetts Institute of Technology.

Note to all Howard Dean supporters out there: This man is no
liberal. Dean supported Republicans in cutting more than $250
billion from Medicare in 1995. As recently as this year, Dean has
suggested increasing the retirement age to 68. In the 12 years Dean
was governor of Vermont, he had an exceptional 100 percent approval
rating from the National Rifle Association. To top it off, Dean has
expressed support for the death penalty. This man defies the
liberal agenda.

Oswaldo Paya's house in Havana is fairly easy to identify. Just
look for the not-so-secret secret police keep the house under
24-hour surveillance; they will be located on park benches and in
parked cars. The house is also monitored by video cameras, the
phones are tapped and all mail is opened. The Cuban government is
clearly afraid of this Catholic human-rights activist.

The 2002-03 year in Badger sports, as always, had its ups and
downs. Here are a few things I would like to see next year:

In the weeks before war broke out, the Security Council chamber
of the United Nations was a scene of debate for issues of dim
concern to world peace-such trivialities as small arms in West
Africa dominated Council discussions. France, one of five nations
seated in prominence at the Security Council, assured that any
discussion of war with Iraq was left out of the Council
chambers.

In these tumultuous times, some are unsure of exactly how to
express an opinion that might deviate from our current government's
foreign policies. Taste would dictate that nothing be too harsh
while soldiers are off dying half a world away. Celebrities,
especially, are always on thin ice, if for no other reason than
celebrities blabbing on about their opinions usually come off as a
pack of pompous jackasses. Adrien Brody's speech at the Oscars came
off as sublime, while Michael Moore's tirade was just plain
ridiculous.
