Last week against FAU, Alex Hornibrook watched Jonathan Taylor enter the Wisconsin record books with 223 yards as a true freshman running back.
While preparing for a jog, one stretches their muscles and warms up. During Spoon’s concert on Thursday, it felt as though both the audience and the band were in a constant state of anticipation, slowly tying their sneaker laces before finding that endorphin-releasing energy experienced at concerts.
Ancient Greek Mythology states that on the Ides of September, when Hades would throw a raging house party in his deathly domain, the kegs of ambrosia would be tapped, the bouncer would charge one gold piece per cup and the heat would rise as the floor of molten magma filled the chamber with acrid fumes. As legend has it, Mother Earth, more commonly known as Gaia, would disrobe, due to the excessive heat and the rising temperatures.“Geoscientists stationed at the poles have begun to receive seismic readings indicating large sections of ozone being removed and cast off into space,” a UW scientist stationed at a research outpost in Antarctica said. “The ozone sheets are beginning to resemble large formations of what looks like clothes.”“You see, here,” he said, gesturing to the radar scanner, “this here is an ozone sheet. As the temperature rises on Earth and Gaia becomes frustrated at its inhabitants not recognizing the blatantly obvious facts, she begins to cast off her clothes. You see, that’s a brassiere.”“The climate is obviously not changing,” President Trump said, as he gestured to an enormous, mountain-shaped graph indicating astronomically increasing temperatures, rising exponentially since the start of the Industrial Revolution. “These numbers mean nothing, and science is rapidly becoming irrelevant as my illogical ramblings become more relevant.”Trump then proceeded to remove the climate reading board on the stand, and upturned it, resulting in a modified logarithmic graph. Gasps arose from the reporters.“The temperature since the start of the Industrial Revolution has approached… what’s that number?” Trump asked.“Zero,” a reporter in the Press Room said.“Zero,” Trump said. “The number has been approaching zero.”“As the legend has it, one of the Titans cast into Tartarus queued a flamin’ track on the DJ deck,” the researcher said. “As the bass built and the track dropped, the entire dance floor went crazy. The ambrosia kegs were flowing freely, and the party reached its peak.“Gaia is disrobing as a direct result of the temperature on Earth getting hotter and hotter,” the researcher said. “It’s getting hot in here, and she’s taking off all her clothes.”
It looks as though America cannot get a break from the devastating tropical storms as Hurricane Irma barrels towards Florida and the coasts of Georgia and the Carolinas.
It was a typical end-of-summer night at the Terrace, a slight chill in the air as stars rose above Lake Mendota, beer flowed from pitchers and a crowd of people bounced to the sounds of a groovy flute and song lyrics about amusement park rides. New Orleans-based band Tank and the Bangas poured their infectious energy over the crowd and kept them moving along with the rhythms of their jazz-gospel-funk-soul-infused jams.
In a week, one of the summer’s most hotly anticipated events will arrive, as Americans everywhere finalize plans to travel to a 70 mile wide strip of land stretching from Oregon to South Carolina.
In its third year, the Wisconsin-based music festival Eaux Claires continued its tradition of bringing together artists from across the world for a slew of astonishing live performances. Focusing on artist collaboration, experimentation and exploration, the festival fuzed genres ranging from folk and indie rock to classical and hip-hop.
“Twin Peaks: The Return” premiered its first four episodes on Showtime Sunday, May 21.
Okay, I’ll admit it—I’m a millennial raving about “Twin Peaks,” the revolutionary television series of the '90s, but there’s no shame in that. “Twin Peaks” is now in the midst of a successful return to television after 25 years of being off the air, something that was once thought of as unimaginable. This wouldn’t have been possible without the strong backbone of the “Twin Peaks” fandom, refueled by a combination of original hardcore fans and new fans discovering the show through the magic of Netflix. The supernatural, small-town murder mystery is back on Showtime with more of the unfathomable bizarreness that fans have come to expect from director David Lynch. In the series finale, dead-girl Laura Palmer hauntingly says in reverse dialogue, “I’ll see you again in 25 years,” while in the mysterious confines of the evil-spirit waiting room, The Black Lodge. Lynch follows through with this promise as “Twin Peaks: The Return” reunites the cast to continue the beloved story 25 years since the series left off, with Lynch and co-creator Mark Frost having complete creative control once again. “The Return” premiered its first four episodes of the 18-episode season on Showtime this past Sunday, May 21. The show is edgier, scarier and trippier than the original; it is ultimately the renaissance of David Lynch.
Twin Peaks Season Three (May 21)
What marks the distinction between a festival headliner and a band at the bottom of the undercard? In a concert at the High Noon Saloon Tuesday night, The Districts made the case that it’s not talent alone. A prototypical midday-at-a-festival band, the Philadelphia natives showcased not only their instrumental finesse, but a palpable star power. If you haven’t heard of them yet, don’t be surprised to see them creep up festival lineups in the coming years.
With March Madness now over and the weather starting to warm, Wisconsin fans’ attention can, at least for the time being, switch back over to the football team.
In September, I knew I was starting what might be my busiest semester yet. With a full class load, a 20-hour internship, a part-time job and student orgs, I felt like there was a shortage of hours in my week. So I decided to train for a marathon.
Picture that cliché feeling of driving with your windows down, scream-singing on a summer day. Now take that feeling and multiply it by 100 and you have yourself a Lumineers concert. The Lumineers played a nearly sold-out show at the BMO Harris Bradley Center in Milwaukee Saturday night, marking the second time in less than a year the folk-rock band has graced the city with its boisterous energy.
“My head’s in the game, but my heart’s in the song” sings fictional basketball phenom Troy Bolton. For him, those lyrics represent a lovesick boy who is caught in conflict with romantic feelings and focusing on basketball.
For the Wisconsin Badgers wrestling team, their last practice started with a game of handball. While it may not be Olympic regulation handball, the game was clearly important, with head coach Barry Davis scoring the goals by giving a big two-handed fist pump.
A few days ago, it was nearly 70 degrees outside in Madison. Students were back on Bascom Hill taking in the sun instead of going to class. Shorts and sandals made their first major appearance of 2017. Campus was filled with life. Now that the sneak peak of summer is over, we’re all craving something to latch on to while we wait for the most exciting season.
Following a week of unseasonably warm weather, Madison broke the record Wednesday for highest temperature ever tracked in the city during winter.
Lake Monona ice begins to melt in the week leading up to all-time high winter temperatures in Madison, peaking at 68 degrees on Feb. 22.
If there are two things I love, it’s murder mysteries and cliché high school dramas. So naturally, “Riverdale” appealed to me immediately. The pilot managed to do a perfect job of taking those two things and smashing them together to form one big, dark teen drama conglomerate.
