Your mom always told you to stand up straight. Though you'll never catch a cold from chilly weather alone and eating everything on your plate wasn't always the best advice, in this case, your mom (or grandma, first grade teacher or chiropractor) knew what she was talking about.
The Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival has been one of the most celebrated outlets of alternative culture for the past six years. The festival, which takes place annually in Indio, Calif., showcases today's cutting-edge bands alongside those who have paved the way in the past, making it something of a scene-defining event.
So you think Associated Students of Madison is dysfunctional? It is like a well-oiled machine in comparison to the clunky robot known as Student Labor Action Coalition. Of course, well-oiled machine\ in reference to ASM is akin to the beater you received on your sixteenth birthday—rusty, but trusty.
Don Corleone, please you must help us. We've got the license for ‘The Godfather,' but since we're EA and it is well known we can't make games, we're certain we'll mess it up. After I saw what we did to Harry Potter, I knew for game-making justice, we must go to Don Corleone.\
Anxiety over the Avian flu virus, known as H5N1, has spread throughout the world and many experts are sounding the alarm that a pandemic is imminent. Still, the nature of the impending health crisis is uncertain, and questions regarding the force of the pandemic and H5N1's role in it remain unanswered. A diverse group of government and academic experts addressed these and other issues at last Friday's Global Biological Threat Symposium, hosted by UW-Madison's Center for World Affairs and the Global Economy.
As U.S. citizens, revolution is in our blood. Our nation was born in the cradle of revolt against British oppression, an origin that has led our government to support all manners of revolutions around the world in the pursuit of a better democracy. We even love the idea of revolution within our democratic system, with some of the most popular political figures in history promising internal revolutions through New Freedoms, New Deals and New Frontiers.
Madison students fled the campus area as a small band of rebels attempting to overthrow the Associated Students of Madison neared Memorial Union on Thursday. By early morning, sporadic gunfire and shelling on the outskirts of campus could be heard. Reports of rebel movements had them heading down Langdon Street, toward the hallowed seat of campus government, with little resistance from government forces.
Former Packer tight end Mark Chmura is in the news again, and though senior prom is right around the corner, he isn't making headlines for creating splashes in a hot tub full of 17-year old girls this time. After a five-year hiatus from the pages of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, Chmura has picked a new target, his best buddy while still with the Packers, Brett Favre.
It is not a good idea to put hot sauce in your ear. Feel free to let out a collective well duh,\ but do know this—I had to learn this the hard way.
In Tuesday's upcoming Dane County Board Election, no clear-cut candidate emerges as the best representative from District 5, which is composed almost entirely of students. Yet to abstain from endorsing a candidate would only further the breeding apathy and proliferate the abysmal student voter turnout rate. Therefore, based on our obligation to motivate students, we endorse Ashok Kumar over David Lapidus.
This Thursday through Sunday, filmmakers from Spooner to Sao Paulo convene in Madison for the Wisconsin Film Festival, which features 177 films from 27 countries. Not sure what to go see? As always, The Daily Cardinal is here for you. We give a sneak preview of seven of the hottest films to hit Madison since this one reel of film literally burned up, like, this one time. Festivities include book signings by Roger Ebert and UW-Madison film scholar David Bordwell. For more information, visit www.wifilmfest.org. Film Fests and Madison: as Bogey once said, This looks like the continuation of a beautiful friendship.\ Or something.
Anyone who has heard a recent Wilco song knows who Glenn Kotche is, even if they don't realize it. Kotche is the talented drummer who drives Wilco's current Alt-rock/country/indie-sound. He is often found pushing the boundaries and moving into the uncharted waters of experimental percussion, and his recent release does not disappoint on this point. Mobile, Kotche's new solo album, provides the listener with a journey through the landscape of the sound of experimental percussion.
Burt Munro is old, stubborn and he pees on his lemon tree to make it grow. He is clever and thrifty, rebuilding a world-class Indian motorcycle that comes all the way from the 1920s. Nobody seems to think that Burt will succeed, though they all shake his hand, pat him on the back and encourage him anyway. What the other characters of this film don't know is that Burt will not be stopped, and that is the beauty of The World's Fastest Indian.\
Yesterday's Daily Cardinal editorial, Wording Detracts from Referendum,\ falls short of solid analysis on numerous counts. The referendum on our April 4th ballot calling for immediate withdrawal is not representative of an ""ultra-left"" political agenda, nor do the organizers behind this initiative hold any delusions about its influence on foreign policy.
Universities around the country have begun to open up scholarship and financial aid opportunities, originally intended for ethnic minorities and women, to students of any race and gender. UW-Madison, however, has not yet followed suit.Since two 2003 Supreme Court cases dealing with race as a criterion for admission at the University of Michigan, many schools have changed their affirmative action policies to avoid legal challenges. Universities, including the State University of New York system and Southern Illinois University, are not only opening financial opportunities at the collegiate level, but also in the areas of high school enrichment programs and graduate student fellowships. Susan Fischer, director of financial aid at UW-Madison, said she does not anticipate any changes. We haven't been challenged at this point in time,\ she said. ""I don't know why we would change unless we absolutely have to.""Fischer does not believe any scholarships will be changed because most scholarships given out by UW-Madison are donation-funded or controlled by
The Libertine\ is the most bizarre cinematic experience of the year—both repulsive and intriguing—leaving the viewer anticipating whether the next scene will hold a gothic crude orgy or a thought-provoking speech.
City dwellers have known for decades that those living in crowded, urban areas need to deal with several distinct annoyances: heavy traffic on the streets, loud noises outside the window and cockroaches infesting the indoors.
A proposed referendum by the Student Labor Action Coalition would require Memorial Union and several other UW-Madison organizations to either pay employees a higher wage or lose funding.
Drawing outside attention to the campus Coastie phenomenon, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel printed Megan Twohey's article, 'The Great 'Coastie ' Divide' in Nov. 2005. Twohey never mentioned that it was once more common on our campus to refer to the Ugg crowd from New York, New Jersey, California and Illinois as JAPs (Jewish American Princesses). Maybe Twohey felt the issue was irrelevant or never considered it. That's an odd omission. If Coastie is in fact another way of saying JAP, the 'Coastie Divide' hints at more than a difference in style.
