Roughly a week ago, I found myself working under deadline while sequestered in an empty classroom with a laptop, the frigid dregs of a cup of coffee, and the wish it was not 3:30 a.m. Previous generations might have described this as burning the midnight oil,"" a phrase suggesting cloistered monks hunched over papyrus scrolls by lamplight, a marked contrast from the over-caffeinated undergraduate dividing time between bathroom breaks and staring at a blank Word document.
The Dane County Sheriff's Office and all Dane County police departments held their annual property auction Saturday at the Alliant Energy Center in Madison.
Every election season, politicians have a tendency to alter their stances on hot-button issues in a shallow attempt to pander to the electorate. In contrast, Hollywood tends to go in the opposite direction, churning out scathing, hardcore political material. Oliver Stone appears to have forgotten this tradition, as his latest film, W."" - a biopic about America's current lame-duck president (played by Josh Brolin) - raises the question of how the creator of such controversial fare as ""JFK"" and ""Natural Born Killers"" could create something so bland and toothless.
In 10 years, when today's fifth and sixth graders are high-stepping around this campus like they own the place, I hope there's a little commemorative plaque lying about, somewhere real unavoidable and inconvenient that reminds those greasy runts of what I had to sacrifice so that that walk of theirs could be so spectacular. When they mosey down the so-called East Campus Mall, or past the shiny new Wisconsin Institutes for Discovery; as they traverse sidewalks atop efficient new utility systems in Library Mall or sip the newest flavored water in the no-longer poopy Union South; when they feel not-depressed when they head off to class in a normal-looking Humanities Building or gaze upon the finished product of whatever-the-heck-they're-doing right now to the Kohl Center lawn, I hope the Badger students of tomorrow are somehow made aware that it was alums like me that put up with a whole lot of walking around shit so they could have all that.
Three Wisconsin Congressmen sent a letter to Attorney General J.B. Van Hollen Wednesday calling for an investigation into an advocacy group's alleged involvement in voter fraud.
Wisconsin's hockey season has just started up, and I couldn't be more excited about it. I have never actually played hockey, nor am I able to stand on ice skates for more than five minutes, but that's not to say I can't be a huge Badgers hockey fan.
With one of the most important presidential elections in the history of this great country just 20 days away, it is important to note the convenience of registering. While organizations such as Progressive Future, ASM and WISPIRG have been extremely helpful in registering voters at new addresses in less than a minute, there still seems to be a large wave of students taking the registration for granted. If you registered for the primary, but have since moved, you need to re-register at your new address.

There has been very little in the way of good economic news in the last year - especially in the last few months. In less than a year, unemployment has increased 1.4 percent. The number of unemployed persons has increased by 2.2 million with long-term unemployment rising to 728,000. Our national debt has almost doubled to over $10 trillion in less than 6 years and our financial stability grows ever more precarious.
Taped versions of On Wisconsin"" and ""Varsity"" were the only sounds of the UW Marching Band Saturday during the Badgers-Ohio State football game - a result of Band Director Mike Leckrone suspending the band for misconduct allegations.

Of all instances of a weekday game foreshadowing the college football weekend, none were greater than last Thursday's. Unranked Oregon State, led by freshman running back Jacquizz Rodgers, created a domino effect in the top 25 with a victory over the No. 1 USC Trojans. From there on out, the rest of the dominoes fell as the top 25 posted a 10-8 record, including losses from the No. 3, No. 4, and No. 9 teams. Georgia, last week's No. 3 team, was embarrassed in their own stadium by No. 8 Alabama and were relegated to the No. 11 spot while Alabama moved up to No. 2. Unranked Ole Miss used a blocked field goal to topple No. 4 Florida in Gainesville and in Ann Arbor; everyone reading this article knows what happened last week to the Badgers.
I'm sure my vocabulary and diction could have used some work, but by the time I began first grade, I was pretty pleased with how well I had picked up the English language. Emboldened by that early achievement, I was unpleasantly surprised 12 years later to find that I hadn't succeeded in learning a second or third - worse, I'd soured on the idea of ever studying another.
Both the Wisconsin men's and women's tennis teams competed in the Milwaukee Tennis Classic last weekend with varied results.
After reading Thursday's article A New Shade of Green,"" I was unable to grasp the overall message that Patricia Mo was attempting to express. Is Patricia Mo stating that students do not know how nor have the energy to be more environmentally conscious? Destroying our environment is one of today's most pressing issues. There has been a tremendous increase in environmental consciousness on every level, ranging from the fashion industry all the way to Capitol Hill. In my opinion, Patricia's article discourages student readers from taking a responsibility to protect this environment by not realizing herself the significant impact small actions can have on minimizing our individual eco-footprint.
Two of my favorite movies of all time are Hoosiers and Wimbledon. Why?"" you ask. Because they are both inspirational sports narratives featuring an underdog making its way to the top.
