State budget issues and political ethics trouble Madison residents more than residents in other areas of Wisconsin, according to the latest Wisconsin Policy Research Institute survey.
In 1990, the Minnesota Republicans made the unfortunate discovery that their nominee for governor, family-values conservative Jon Grunseth, was a pedophile. With only eight days left on the clock, the ruling Democrats let them change the ballots, knowing full well they would have a harder time against the popular new competitor, Arne Carlson.

Mike Singleton's story collection offers a few interesting premises while shoving a few overly colorful characters down your throat. Largely set in South Carolina, \The Half-Mammals of Dixie "" attempts to tackle racism, Southern stereotypes and marital relations while entertaining the reader with snide hillbilly put-downs and a string of virtually identical narrators.
Students, in the last Associated Students of Madison election, you asked Student Services Finance Committee to give you your segregated fees back. Your representatives are listening.
Like most Americans, I have grown up under a deluge of TV advertisements. I have been bombarded by all sorts of product pitches, ranging from financial services that no one really understands to pharmaceutical companies that end up listing side effects such as \may paralyze you from the waist down.""
On March 29, UW-Madison students found an issue dear to their hearts and wallets over which to battle the city and university administration: a ban on drink specials after 8 p.m.
I was walking home one day when someone yelled \Hey homo, nice shirt."" At first, I was mad but then I realized that I could see myself saying the same thing'say, 10 years ago when I was 11. So, maybe the guy was not a complete jerk and homophobe, but just had some growing up to do. The kind of growing up most of us go through before high school, but hey, there are slow kids in every class. And then it hit me, in a few weeks he will be gone. Woo-hoo!
In honor of Earth Day, I want to use my column this week to send a word to the girls about environmental politics and, well ... those special private lady times.
If the Alcohol License Review Committee adopts its Comprehensive Alcohol Issues Report tomorrow night, drink specials will virtually end.
Ah, spring. Dreary afternoons huddled around a space heater give way to sun-soaked Frisbee excursions, and cumbersome North Face parkas give way to revealing tank tops. The warming weather carries with it an increase in passion, making spring into a sort of mating season.
Picture a perfect summer day: You and your fianc?? get into the car for a warm, sunny drive to the beach. The sunroof is open, and you feel a warm breeze brush your cheek as you race down a Madison highway. Two hours later, your fianc?? is lying on a bed in the emergency room, unconscious and unaware that he will never walk again.
Five years ago, party hosts spent weekends in fear of Madison Police Department officers busting up house parties and passing out large numbers of fines to hosts and their underage partygoers under a program called Operation Sting.
Last week, a subcommittee of the powerful Alcohol License Review Committee released a report that seeks to deal with \comprehensive alcohol issues"" in downtown Madison. A proposal contained within the plan seeks to ban drink specials after 8 p.m., which, the report concedes, will probably drive college-age drinkers from the downtown bar area to unregulated, unsupervised and potentially dangerous house parties.
I saw a rock star last weekend. It was a pretty good concert, complete with lots of flashy lights and eager fans. The rock star played some songs off his new album. He also did a few of those rock star jumps, where the momentum of a particularly fierce guitar riff picks the musician up into the air. He struck some nice poses too, looking for all the world like he was playing in some big arena instead of a medium sized club. The bassist kept jerking his head like an ostrich on speed, while the hipster drummer stayed in the back and tried to look cool.
Lawyers representing opposite sides of a pending court case set to shape the nature of segregated fee allocation recently cited the same Supreme Court decision as evidence supporting each side's argument.
I found out last weekend that you can't get WSUM on the east side of the Capitol, an area where I just happened to need to be. So I was driving around with my editor listening to the supposedly progressive 105.5, and a really lame song by Five For Fighting or someone came on.
The Associated Students of Madison's new, late-breaking slogan, \Working Today; Changing Tomorrow"" may sound like any other politician's catchphrase, but ASM's current projects show promise. If our student government is ultimately successful in following through with this year's reasonably lofty goals, members of the campus community will be the beneficiaries of more than just a free ride on the LN or a cab ride home from a night downtown.
Imagine finding six hungry children seated around the McCallum family dinner table and food enough for only five. Would you make sure all six got something to eat, although doing so guarantees that none will be completely satisfied? Or would you feed just five, and leave the sixth to fend for himself?
