Carolyn Biddy Cent"" Martin, UW-Madison chancellor and graduate with a doctoral degree in German literature, stunned fans earlier this week with the release of her debut album to a tumult of controversy. Following her plans to hike tuition steadily over the next several years, Biddy Martin announced she had been spending considerable time over the past several months creating an album that relates her troubled experiences growing up as an impoverished youth.
Things are finally looking up. The Dow Jones Industrial is up over eight percent the past month, erasing much of the slide that occurred at the end of January and continued through February. With such an increase, there is little doubt that investments will decline any time soon. States are receiving money from President Obama's bailout bill, and pretty soon, private investors will be taking up assets as toxic as nuclear waste and turning a profit from them. The country has very nearly pulled itself out of the recession and the world will soon follow.
Four members of the Wisconsin women's hockey team will join head coach Mark Johnson on Team USA at the International Ice Hockey Federation World Women's Championship in Hamëenlinna, Finland, April 4-12.
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.
St. Patrick's Day. What should have been a night of drunken debauchery turned into a night of extreme awkwardness. All my friends were out of town, so I settled for a night in with the family. No amount of green beer could save me from a night like this.
President Obama is set to sign an executive order Monday reversing President Bush's ban on federal funding for embryonic stem-cell research.
I still cannot help but shake my head every time I watch any game that involves Ohio State and the television camera squares up on the ridiculous head of Brutus the Buckeye.

All good things must come to an end.
Two teens were taken into custody Thursday night after the manager of the Doubletree Hotel reported the two suspects had a gun, which was actually a BB gun.
His mantra on leadership is relatively simple: Make sure that my play carries more so than my voice.""
Trouble Andrew's self-titled debut album holds nothing back, going so far as displaying its lead singer sporting a sideways baseball cap and gold chain on its cover. The amalgamation of repetitive pop-punk guitar riffs and insipid electronic melodies over pseudo-hip-hop-inspired lyrics delivered in a monotone drawl stands as the latest incarnation of douche-core. This serves less as a musical statement and more as a vehicle for the band's front man, ex-pro snowboarder Trevor Andrew.

Nowadays the term buzz band"" has become something of a taboo. A well-received EP can carry a band farther than ever due to the heightened accessibility of the Internet, but too frequently it also spells an LP of unrealized hype for many bands coming up in this fashion. The Pains of Being Pure at Heart's 2007 self-titled EP didn't exactly burn up the charts, but it certainly grabbed the attention of those who heard it. Instead of taking this praise as an opportunity to rush out an LP of underdeveloped, overproduced songs, POBPAH took their time and crafted a masterpiece of early '90s indie pop in their eponymous debut LP.
When I first became aware of Michael Phelps' photograph with a bong in a British tabloid, I did not know what to think. I kept wondering if the stress of being so successful at such a young age caused Phelps to rebel, but then realized that acts such as these are simply unacceptable when you have a positive image to maintain.
Last Saturday, my boyfriend and I decided to celebrate the heat wave of two degrees below freezing instead of 22 degrees with some wholesome, winter-sport fun. We went ice skating.
It's fascinating to look back at the members of the Strokes now because of how every post-Strokes venture so perfectly encapsulates each member's role in the group. Albert Hammond Jr., the guitar-hook savant, Fabrizio Moretti, the champ of smooth rhythms, Nick Valensi, the musician by default and Julian Casablancas, the pure swagger. Unfortunately, with the debut of his side project, Nickel Eye, and first LP, The Time of the Assassins, Nikolai Fraiture has further affirmed himself as the boring guy in back.
U.S.A. Hockey announced Tuesday that Wisconsin women's hockey head coach Mark Johnson will lead the U.S. women's national team at the Vancouver Olympics in 2010. Johnson, who has coached the Badgers to two national championships since starting at Wisconsin in 2002, said he is thrilled to have the opportunity.
About one month ago, I became a mother. Not the kind of mother with permanent stretch marks - no, I still have seven or eight years until I pop one out of my uterus - but a mother to someone else's child. A guinea pig, to be exact.
