Hi, I'm Erica. You can find me here every Friday. And maybe some
other days around campus you'll see me wearing headphones and a
dazed look on my face.

Why is it that some people can't take responsibility for their
own stupidity? I can't begin to imagine how much money our
government has dumped into trying lawsuits that are seen as
absolutely ridiculous by everyone except, and maybe even including,
the person filing the suit. I wish my disgust for these cases
stopped at the thought of my tax dollars paying for some people to
exercise their ignorance, but unfortunately their presence in our
society is far more irritating to me.

The New York Times political reporter looked around the table of
mostly graduate students sheepishly, almost confused. A svelte,
sophisticated man, Richard Berke was not prepared for the
Wisconsin-style gluttony that he witnessed at the Essen Haus a few
Thursdays back. The big steaks and the big beers were off-putting,
to be sure, but Berke's true uneasiness began when the oom-pah
oom-pahs began to bellow and the polka festivities began.

Mary Schnell, a 55-year-old grandmother, sits in the hospital
lounge waiting for her turn to lie under the large, beige
radiotherapy machine. The lights are soft, and it is quiet in the
hospital alcove, unlike in the hallway where doctors and nurses
shuffle by, checking on patients. A five-year-old blond girl is
wheeled by on a gurney, her parents by her side. She has just
finished her treatment.

In basketball, unlike any other sport, one player has the
capability to put a team on its back or lead it to victory.

The brilliant professor approaches the culmination of her
enlightening lecture. Aside from the educational intensity of the
speaker's voice, the entire room remains steeped in a concentrated
silence. Just then, at an incredibly dramatic moment, an irritating
electronic rendition of Edvard Grieg's \Hall of the Mountain King""
interrupts the atmosphere.

Filmmaker Julie Mallozzi takes the audience along as she
attempts to unearth her Chinese roots in \Once Removed."" The 1999
documentary consists of footage from Mallozzi's 1995 trip to China,
where she met her maternal relatives for the first time and learned
about her ancestors' role in China's history.

On a Friday in March 1979, an employee of an anthrax-producing
factory in Sverdlosk, Russia, asked that one of the building's
filters leading outside be replaced. After being told to take the
old filter off and wait for a new one, the employee left for the
weekend. No one ever came with a new filter. Less than a week
later, animals more than 30 miles downwind were dead. Within 44
days, 76 people had died.

If the term \digital library"" is unfamiliar to you, do not
worry. It is a relatively new concept that many have never heard
of. Essentially, it is a generic way of labeling a Web site or
database that contains multimedia material intended for educational
purposes. From there, a larger digital library will be searchable
and frequently contain links to related online resources.

I keep pushing on, straining myself to the very limit of
physical endurance. The accelerated rhythm of my pulse reverberates
through my entire body like the piercing beat of a bass drum, and
my lungs struggle to satiate the needs of my strained respiratory
system. After twenty minutes of grueling intensity, victory is
mine.

This past week, panic erupted in Florida because of anthrax.
Anthrax obviously doesn't normally float around office buildings;
somebody has to put it there. The FBI has taken over the
investigation because criminal intent was most likely behind this
incident. Have we been attacked again? Maybe, but it's not
something to worry too much about.

How would you like to live to see the Badgers go to the Sugar
Bowl or meet your tenth-generation grandchildren? You may think it
impossible, but some people hope to do so through cryonics'the
process of freezing a human immediately after death under the
assumption that technology will someday be advanced enough that the
person may be reanimated and brought back into a healthy existence.
Those who can afford it can choose to either have the entire body
frozen or, in cases of clearly irreparable deterioration, the head,
in hopes of returning it to a healthy body in the future.
