Recording a band with sub-par equipment isn't fun. You'd think I would remember this from that time I was in a ska band in high school, but Friday night I decided to try my hand at it again. Local boys Baristacide came out to The Daily Cardinal office and set up all of their gear, helped me out by finding a controller to run the mics through so I could get audio and played a set of pretty awesome pop-punk-for-people-who-hate-pop-punk. After seven songs and a few minor technical issues, we ended up with more than enough for a good session.
Finals are almost upon us, and with them the end of my reading for the semester. Not that I'm complaining. Spending three hours reading isn't exactly my ideal Friday night. I'm an English major, so I read well over 20 books this semester. Some were wonderful pieces of literature, and others were just boring. Here is my list of the best and worst books I read for class this year.
How many times has this happened to you: You’re trying to navigate around your iPad, or any touch-screen device for that matter, and you can’t get it to work because of those 10 little inconveniences you call fingers? So frustrating!
For some reason, I always end up being one of the last people on campus at the beginning of a break, whether it be Thanksgiving, finals or spring break, I’m here. I wonder what I did in this life or a past one to make the scheduling gods so angry with me that I wound up in this hot mess of a situation (read: me alone on the second floor of the College Library quiet room at 6:00 p.m.).
The Wisconsin Badgers women's basketball team looks to win back-to-back games for the first time this season as they host the Saint Louis Billikens in a Monday night tilt at the Kohl Center. This will be the second matchup of a two-game homestand for Wisconsin (3-5 overall), who defeated Boston College 58-50 in the Big Ten/ACC Women's Challenge on Wednesday.
My parents never gave me "the talk." Based on the awkward stories I've heard and knowing my own parents, I think I'm pretty lucky. The fallopian tubes scene from the Amanda Bynes movie "Sydney White" never happened, nor did the tennis conversation from "American Pie." I would probably have locked myself in my room with Fall Out Boy's "7 Minutes in Heaven" blaring if they had tried.
My family is full of characters. This fact is nothing new to me, but Thanksgiving break worked to make sure I never forget this reality.
I spent all four years of high school playing flute in the marching band, a reality I, for a number of reasons, was not terribly thrilled with.
The Legislature's Joint Finance Committee approved a Department of Health Services budget proposal Thursday that includes $225 million in Medicaid cuts by an 11-4 vote along party lines.
The Madison Symphony Orchestra, housed in the Overture Center for the Arts, is considered one of the best regional orchestras in the country, and lucky for UW students, it is welcoming Badgers with open arms.
If you liked "Happy Feet," you may get as excited as I am for this Thursday's entertainment.
Anyone familiar with Haruki Murakami’s work knows his fiction does not operate by the world’s logic, least ways not the world we live in. In Murakami’s world, mystic sheep inhabit human beings and bestow preternatural powers; voices speak from beyond death and dreams; six-foot-tall frogs fight giant worms under Tokyo and the line between realities is blurred. Characters are thrown into this world befuddled, often just trying to live their own humdrum lives while abnormal and sometimes horrifying forces play with and implicate these characters in their own affairs against the cultural backdrop of 20th-Century Japan. And his latest novel, “1Q84,” has been hailed as his magnum opus.
Are there any genuine men out there? I’ve had female friends complain that all men are manipulative creatures who always have some type of hidden agenda, and I have found myself constantly coming to the defense of the male species. No longer will I do this. For now, I agree. Never trust a man with a smile and never give his small talk the time of day.
Each year, football fans everywhere ritualistically gather around their televisions for the last game of the season. The penultimate showdown will occasionally live up to the impossibly large hype, but often the games aren't as close or as interesting as one would like. That's why there's more to the Super Bowl than the game itself.
SCIENCE
Well, I guess it is that time of year again. As if I don't have enough to complain about during the winter, spring, summer and early fall, late fall is always a doozie with the unveiling of each week's BCS standings leading up to the announcement of the bowl selections in early December. It's a time of year when football reigns supreme, and while I detest the sport, I try my best each and every year to get over it, but somehow the BCS ruins that attempt without fail.
Dear Erica,
I wish I was born 60 years ago. It's just that... I'm a little indifferent toward the present. I have a hard time seeing what's special about it. How will people remember the 2000s? Sure, there's the war and the horrible economy, but hopefully those aren't the only things people remember. But what else do we have to show?
