Weather continues to get colder, bicycle transportation is less
comfortable and fresh produce is becoming more difficult to obtain.
When the sound of milk curdling is echoing throughout the empty and
cavernous fridge and the cupboards are occupied by nothing but
crumbs from an old box of cereal, it might be time to head to the
local grocery store.

Slaying a giant is never easy, especially when that giant is
cheered on by 103,000 rabid fans screaming for the demise of their
intimidated opponent. That is the challenge Wisconsin faces
Saturday as it travels to the vociferous Ohio Stadium with hopes of
taking down the No. 8 Ohio State Buckeyes.

With the exception of a wobbly last four minutes of a game that
had long been over, John Clay and Wisconsin made a statement to the
rest of the Big Ten Saturday as they stampeded to a 38-30 win over

This year we find ourselves in the midst of the university's
Year of the Humanities, a series of lectures dedicated to esoteric
topics in hopes of increasing visibility of the humanities on
campus and to promote the worth of a well- rounded, humanistic
education in the job market. A liberal arts education is often
composed of a lot of intangibles, but if the university is truly
serious about its commitment to a humanistic education and the
worth of the humanities to mankind, it needs to commit something
more tangible to the cause.

During the off-season, the top question on most fans' minds was
simple: who starts at quarterback?

Would our teacher be a stripper with huge plastic boobs? What
kind of shoes does one wear to this kind of thing? Would there be
mirrors, peeping toms and would I get herpes?
(04/03/09 6:00am)
I laughed out loud when I read your column last week, because I
have fantasies about one of my professors, too! Can you talk a
little bit more about making those fantasies a reality—can I get in
trouble for sleeping with my professor? Or can he get in
trouble?

After a season in which instability at quarterback forced
Wisconsin to rely on its deep roster of running backs, the Badgers
will again turn to the ground game in 2009.

It's scientifically impossible to break an egg by squeezing it
in one hand. Yet, there it is on the cover of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs'
new album It's Blitz!: Karen O's hand reaches in from the right and
smashes that thing up, exhibiting a symbol of intimidating power
and strength that YYY's have done their best to embody in their
seven years on the scene. Both the assertive title and the cover
art are a little misleading, though. It's Blitz! marks a distinct
shift in sound from one of indie rock's most heralded
groups.

A great number of things have been going incredibly wrong
lately. It seems as if you can pretty much take your pick of
political, social and economic topics and find glaring faults
within any one of them; problems numerous enough to give fits of
consternation and depression to even the most optimistic among us.
The Washington echo chamber is up to the same old game using the
same old players. The entrenched Democratic old guard is trying to
flex their collective muscles and strong-arm an unwilling president
who would prefer to play a different game. The decimated Republican
old guard is hawking tired party lines and ideologies; looking
left, right, north and south for fresh relief. Nothing is
happening, nothing is changing. Meanwhile, the blue and red
hamsters continue to run contently inside their wheels.

This past weekend, along with countless other nerds, lemmings
and unwilling significant others, I watched ""Watchmen."" Although
most of my thoughts about the movie are uninteresting and vague,
one particular gripe stands out: the song selection for the sex
scene. I am not alone in this complaint, either. Many reviewers,
including The Daily Cardinal's own Danny Gottlieb, agree that Zach
Snyder & Co. would be hard pressed to find a more cliché,
awkward or disappointing choice than Leonard Cohen's original
recording of ""Hallelujah.""

The album artwork for Neko Case's latest release, Middle
Cyclone, depicts her crouching on the hood of a car
brandishing a spear, a clear indication she is ready to joust.
Whereas her previous artwork echoed the music's depiction of a
melancholy (or barely conscious) songwriter, Middle
Cyclone is Case's most poppy, if not most commercially
ambitious, album to date. But do not let that scare you off.

Sunday's New York Times featured an interview with U2. On the
eve of the release of their twelfth studio album, No Line On The
Horizon, the article focused on the band's struggle to maintain
legitimacy in the face of their own 30-plus year history, the
political associations of their lead singer and the commercial
culture of the music today. Unsurprisingly, U2 turns out to be the
hero of this story, valiantly making great music in the face of
insurmountable cultural odds, all while staying true to their
roots.
