Dear student body,
The Dane County Medical Examiner’s Office identified a body found in Warner Park lagoon on the northeast side Friday as 55-year-old Madison man Calvin Ewing, according to a press release.
Kane Kaiman is a graduate of Cedarburg High School. There, he scored a 5 on his AP Psychology test, giving him the authority to interpret the dreams of all humans and some of the earth’s more intelligent mammals. Although he is considered by many to be the world’s foremost expert in the study of dreams, he himself has never had one.
The family of a slain local, who died after Madison Police Officer Stephen Heimsness shot him three times in the chest, filed a federal lawsuit against Heimsness, Police Chief Noble Wray and the City of Madison Thursday.
The Dane County Medical Examiner’s Office announced Thursday the 20-year-old man who went missing while swimming Wednesday in Lake Mendota was University of Wisconsin-Madison student Richard “Grady” de La Cruz.
We entered Saturday with renewed spirits. We’d dried off and so had the world; nothing but blue skies and slightly less health-endangering heats awaited us. The plan was to get to Pitchfork at around 1 p.m. and catch White Lung and Pissed Jeans for a notably punk afternoon, but underestimating both Chicago traffic and the lunch rush threw us off and we arrived too late to do either. Instead we headed over towards the blue stage, our consistently shady bastion, to see Julia Holter.
Small acts show strong stage presence
A University of Wisconsin-Madison student drowned in a Waushara County lake early Friday morning and officials say alcohol was involved, according to Sheriff David Peterson in a news release.
1. Your resume is terrible
The Dalai Lama stopped into the Wisconsin state Assembly chambers Tuesday as part of his Change Your Mind Change The World tour to deliver an approximately 20-minute speech peppered with jokes and his distinctive chuckles, which hit on the need for unity and compassion among state legislators.
Anyone who eats ice cream, eggs, mango or sweet potato is getting some of their necessary intake of Vitamin A. Even pumpkin pie contains Vitamin A. Because Vitamin A is found in many different foods, either naturally or supplemented, the consequences of not having enough are rarely a topic of discussion.
Tuesday morning, a reporter asked President Barack Obama for his views on the latest developments at the Guantanamo Bay prison camp, where at least half of the 166 prisoners have been leading a hunger strike to protest their decade-long, due-process-free incarceration. The president responded unequivocally, “The idea that we would still maintain forever a group of individuals who have not been tried, that is contrary to who we are. It is contrary to our interests and it needs to stop.” Unfortunately, President Obama’s eloquent words have not been matched by the corresponding course of action. Indeed, the policies pursued during his presidency have served to bolster, rather than eliminate, the principle of due-process-free detention.
This week, Niko wraps up his list of the 10 best craft-beer bars in Madison.
Ever since Wisconsin athletic director and former head coach Barry Alvarez paced the sidelines, the Badgers have established themselves as one of the premier running teams in the country. A massive offensive line coupled with athletic yet powerful tailbacks have led the program to six Big Ten championships and as many Rose Bowl appearances since Alvarez’s arrival in 1990.
So I decided to write a mock draft in preparation of this week’s NFL draft. You may be asking, “What qualifies you to write anything on the NFL or football in general? You don’t seem particularly bright, and you probably are ugly.” Well, my only defense to that would be to tell you I have better hair than Mel Kiper, and that covers me on all counts—so take that. Plus most of these “experts” have a worse history of predictions than your local weatherman. So, here we go.
The Dane County Medical Examiner’s Office identified the University of Wisconsin-Madison employee who died April 16 after a machine malfunction as Kenneth J. Newman, 63, of Prairie du Sac, Wis., Thursday.
Tragedy opens a window into the soul of a people. In the midst of the horrific bombing attack at the Boston Marathon, and despite the possibility of more bombs detonating, scores of first responders rushed to risk their lives in the service of complete strangers. As just one of many examples of such selflessness and heroism, Dr. Natalie Stevens, who ran in the race, convinced the police to let her through the snow fences lining the streets. Stevens then administered CPR to a fallen woman and used a tourniquet to stem the bleeding of a man who very well might have died had she chosen instead, quite sensibly, to stay out of harm’s way.
A University of Wisconsin-Madison employee died Tuesday after being trapped under a loading dock lift at the university Art Lofts, according to the UW-Madison Police Department.
Well ya’ll, it looks like it’s happening. School is almost out, and once again, most of us are all but moving into the campus libraries to bang our heads against our laptops—or whatever it is we do there. As the deadlines come rolling in, some of us will graduate, while some are relieved to have made it through freshman year and some are just excited to have more free time to drink beer. As I look to my summer plans and try, as I do every year, to make this the best summer of my life, I once again find myself making plans I probably won’t keep.
University of Wisconsin-Madison senior Henry Mackaman may receive a posthumous degree from the university after dying from bacterial meningitis last week, according to the Wisconsin State Journal.
