Ari strikes gold on ‘One Take’
(04/23/07 6:00am)
Most 21-year-olds can't say they have their own music on iTunes or were the only act playing at Summerfest at one time. However, local musician Ari Herstand has achieved both of these things and is growing in popularity in Madison and Minneapolis, where he plays most of his shows. Herstand recently released his sophomore solo album, One Take, which showcases his unique ""folk hop"" genre that sounds unlike anything you've ever heard.

Food is still able to find its place in films
(04/11/07 6:00am)
Strangely enough, there aren't many scenes in movies that actually focus on food. There are plenty of classic food-related lines, like, ""Leave the body, take the cannoli"" in ""The Godfather,"" and, ""I'll have what she's having"" from ""When Harry Met Sally.""
‘The Lookout’ Worth a Look
(04/09/07 6:00am)
Before coming aboard to direct himself, Scott Frank's script for the ""The Lookout"" was courted by the likes of Sam Mendes, David Fincher and Michael Mann. Watching the film, it's little wonder why. ""The Lookout"" is a rare thriller for adults—the kind of film that knows carefully drawn characters are far more thrilling than car chases. In a time when one need only turn to the closest multiplex to see that the thriller is a dying genre, ""The Lookout"" breathes new life into the heist film, giving audiences characters they can care about and making the body count count.

Young’s early genius shows in live album of ’71
(03/25/07 6:00am)
Unnatural. Naked. Listen to Neil Young pour into the opening progression of ""Old Man"" in a live show. Without the immediate inundation of applause, one can't help but detect an obvious void. Yet a curious silence was all that filled the Massey Hall crowd on January 19, 1971. But that silence wasn't unnatural. It wasn't naked. It was history.

(03/12/07 6:00am)
Machine Head started their career with 1994's Burn My Eyes, which went on to become one of the seminal metal albums of the decade. That success proved hard to live up to. The band caught criticism from metal fans on their next three discs for a shift to a more radio-friendly, hard rock sound.

(03/11/07 6:00am)
A frat boy relaxes behind me slumped in a sweatshirt and baseball cap during lunchtime at the Regent Street McDonald's.

For most, the thought of the Colosseum conjures images of gladiators battling lions with swords. But for Jeff, a self-proclaimed Beirut gladiator, the Colosseum simply refers to his bedroom.

Jeff plans to one-day take his championed skills to the esteemed Beer Olympics. Go for the gold Jeff. Go for the gold!
Battling disease with silicon drugs
(02/11/07 6:00am)
Big discoveries are rare in research labs. Most of the time, scientists have to try over and over again to achieve the effect they want. Drugs are especially tricky, since even effective drugs can have toxic side effects. Fiddling with the molecular structure can improve a drug—or make it worse. Up until now, those attempts to tweak existing drugs focused on the carbon chemistry of medicine. Like humans, medicines are made up mostly of carbon.
