I was alone, watching a movie at the start of freshman year, when the phone rang. The ordinary impulse would've been to pause Reservoir Dogs"" and answer it, but this was the room phone, which I had not come to think of as my own in the few days living with it.
Dear Daily Cardinal staff,
<*>Major</*>: Mechanical Engineering
In our Summer Registration Issue 2008, The Daily Cardinal ran a comic under the title The Graph Giraffe"" that some readers found offensive and racist. The Daily Cardinal received questions regarding the message of the comic, especially since it ran in the issue that served to welcome family and friends of incoming students. Although the artist's message was meant to neither harm nor demean, it was poorly conveyed and was overlooked by Cardinal management because of deadline complications and concerns.
As the year draws to a close, many seniors view the last days before graduation as a checklist of last-minute things to accomplish: Pick up robes and hat. Send out invitations. Pass the last few exams. Get wedding dress fitted?
For some reason, I happened to stumble upon a website that featured all of the national food holidays of our glorious country, which has nothing better to do than officially declare my birthday International Yorkshire Pudding Day (really?).
Possible university sanctions for the incoming senior class president who allegedly stole bus tickets from Memorial Union remain unclear as no official superior within the university could be determined to account for his behavior.
Frightened Rabbit is just one more band to have emerged from Glasgow, Scotland, but The Midnight Organ Fight should propel them to the top of that list of notables. Their second album release in under a year takes many of the elements they previously established and energizes them with a lyrical delivery, percussive punch and forceful guitar that all scream with desperation for nearly the entire 50 minutes of work.
It's difficult to correct someone when you're not in a uniform. Last week, walking down a path in Lakeshore Nature Preserve, the blackbird calls were disrupted when a pair of tiny dogs took off at full force, yapping insanely, in chase of a Canadian goose. As the goose took umbrage and honked unprintable threats, the dogs circled back toward their smiling owner, who urged them on. Luckily for the dogs, who might otherwise have lost an eye or two, the goose retreated and took flight.
There are a myriad of reasons why I'm hesitant to write about Rev. Jeremiah Wright this week. Wright's comments have indirectly, yet purposefully, become tied to Obama's campaign. This has not been ethical, nor does it serve to foster the political discussions this country so desperately needs at this point. There has been a media saturation which, by far, has been sensational over substantive.
A citywide pandemic is afoot. Blue men are roaming the streets. These men do not have a blood disorder, nor are they aliens from another planet (as far as we can tell). These creatures belong to a touring rock performance group known as the Blue Man Group.
Sports fans that pick up a weekly newspaper and examine the National League Central standings may be somewhat surprised at what they see. Neither the Milwaukee Brewers nor the Chicago Cubs occupy the top spot - that belongs to the St. Louis Cardinals - and both squads are 8-6/9-5, respectively.
Tapes 'n Tapes' new album, Walk It Off, uses the textbook formula for a sub-par follow up from an indie darling. After their debut album, The Loon, received rave reviews from both bloggers and mainstream media, they decided to change the formula a bit in their sophomore album while attempting to keep their original sound, leaving a CD that just seems like a typical indie album.
Everyone handles stress differently. Some continually talk about how much stress they have and then proceed to keep talking about how much needs to be done instead of doing anything about their stress, which results in a higher accumulation of stress.
As government agencies across Wisconsin anticipate budget cuts in response to a shortfall projected at over $652 million, Gov. Jim Doyle has requested legislative approval for an extra decimal point to help reduce the size of the projected budget deficit.
Wyndham Manning is the best candidate to succeed Ashok Kumar as the Dane County District 5 Supervisor. He is neither a great candidate nor the lesser of two evils, but rather the better of two mediocres.
After three days off, March Madness is back in full swing Thursday with four regional semi-finals. However, fans will have to wait until Friday evening for the matchups in the Midwest Region. No. 3 seed Wisconsin and No. 10 seed Davidson hit the court first, followed by No. 1 seed Kansas and No. 12 seed Villanova.
Head coach Roy Williams' Tar Heels hammered its first two tournament opponents, scoring over 100 points in both games. By doing so, North Carolina remains the top seed in a region, which has only seen one upset. This should be good for the ACC champions, but it also means all top four seeds are still alive in the bracket.
Dear Mr. Screwtape,
Welcome back, everyone. I assume many of you spent your breaks working on your suntan in some exotic locale. Personally, I stayed in Madison and watched snowfall top the century mark for the season. I did, however, between my long-hibernation-style sleep cycles find the time to watch a rather interesting episode of Real Time with Bill Maher.""
