I'll be the first to admit I've never been one for technology. We've never really got along, and by that I basically mean I'm a human circuit breaker. I'm positive that something in me is hardwired to break down whatever electronic device is nearest to me. iPods lose their batteries, TVs become creepily blank and I'm pretty sure I even caused a power outage on a city block.
Dozens of protesters marched from the Capitol to the federal courthouse Tuesday to rally against the recent U.S. Supreme Court decision that lifts caps on political spending by corporations and unions.
I like to describe albums as personalities—created by or representative of artists—and treat them as if they were companions that come and go throughout life, interacting in ways deep enough to consider them entities. Certain songs and albums can be angry at the world for polluting the environment, in search of consolation after a tough relationship ends, demanding society to improve social standards or any other sentiment a human can feel or express. To further my claim and say that personality found in the music world is essentially a microcosm of the same found in our world, all sorts of extremes—many of them unpleasant to seek, and even worse to find—must be sought out.
The following is an excerpt from the script of an in-production episode for the hit NBC comedy ""30 Rock.""
President Barack Obama's recent visit to Madison's Wright Middle School only weeks before the anniversary of former President John Kennedy's assassination on Nov. 22, 1963—46 years ago Sunday—provides a look at the evolution of presidential security.
It was a tragic accident that should never have happened in the first place. On Friday, Nov. 28, 2008, over 2,000 people in line at the Wal-Mart in Valley Stream, N.Y., surged through the doors in the early morning hours of a post-Thanksgiving sale. In the ensuing flood of aggressive and violent shoppers, a Wal-Mart temporary employee was trampled to death, according to the U.S. Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Administration.
Earlier this summer, an unforeseen surprise caused Christmas to come early for music geeks everywhere, and it presents two starkly contrasting approaches to the current music market. I was able to get my hands on Eminem's Relapse and Wilco's the album in the same week, but what made it such an unexpected celebration is the fact that Wilco's album wasn't supposed to come out until June, yet it matched Eminem's May 15 release.
Over $74,400 in inappropriate purchases made by state employees on items, including a vacation package to Las Vegas, a personal laptop and expensive tickets to a theater production, were identified by the Legislative Audit Bureau Wednesday in an audit of purchasing card use.
The Clean's latest album, Mister Pop, alludes to a generic soda brand, which is quite indicative of The Clean as a whole. Despite producing (or, in The Clean's case, sometimes originating) the same product, consumers are hesitant to pay more than a quarter in a machine outside K-Mart for the unfamiliar label.

After a brutal five-year wait, Green Day finally satiated their fans with a new album, 21st Century Breakdown. It was well worth the wait: each song has an original tune and thoughtful, meaningful lyrics to match.
This Saturday, music stores everywhere will be participating in Record Store Day, a celebration of independent music stores and music lovers.
Over the past twelve months, the unemployment rate has risen 2.7 percent, leaving 4.1 million Americans jobless. Without a source of income, it can be difficult to pay the mortgage, the car payment and even the grocery bill, which is why over 28 million people have turned to food stamps. The food stamp program, more recently known as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), is helping millions of Americans keep food on the table. While most of them are grateful for the money they are given to spend on food, it is often not enough to purchase quality, nutritious items.
At around 9 a.m. local time, Albanian human traffickers, looking for new merchandise for their prostitution business, abduct two American girls traveling in France. One of those girls frightfully describes what is happening over the phone as her father listens in horror at home in the U.S.
UW-Madison will host Thomas Beaumont, chief political reporter of the Des Moines Register, and Charles Fishman, author and senior editor at Fast Company magazine, as writers in residence this spring.
The same technology used by EZ-Pass to tally miles traveled on toll roads, monitor goods at Wal-Mart and track animal movement through ear tags may lead scientists to improve the quality and safety of the nation's blood supply, according to researchers at UW-Madison.
Anyone who's got an ear turned to the behind-the-scenes turmoil of the music industry knows that it's been nudged to a precipice of uncertainty; perhaps it's even been pushed over the edge. The heart of the matter is that people are consuming more music now than ever, but instead of walking out of stores with CDs, most are stuffing hard drives with the modern culmination of what CDs first introduced - digital music in the form of binary bits and bytes.
\If I am guilty of anything it is of being too trusting of others, wanting to see the best in everyone and being nice to everyone.""
The 35-foot Christmas tree standing inside the Wisconsin State Capitol looks like your average tree, but do not be fooled - it's greener. The tree sparkles with 2,400 energy-efficient LED Christmas lights and highlights the trend toward socially conscious consumerism.
Every time my extended family gets together for the holidays, basketball and football are the two main topics of conversation. Thanksgiving was a happy time this year, mostly because the Green Bay Packers only had one loss on the season and basketball was just starting up.
