How's that New Year's weight loss resolution going for you? The
overly common premise of television commercials this time of year
contains the typically chubby American scrambling to the nearest
Bally's with hope of banishing that flabby physique. While these
advertisements can be a source of motivation for individuals with a
slowing metabolism and sedentary lifestyle, the unequally
distributed and improperly focused television ads for weight loss
are vastly ineffective, and bordering on sexist.

With the start of a new semester, I can now look back on last
semester's finals and conclude one thing'I messed up. Let me
clarify, I did not get the grades I wanted, because I messed
up.

It's times like today'when the slush and salt have turned my
blue jeans a hideous shade of brown and the icy air has frozen my
nose to the zipper of my coat'that I take some time for personal
introspection and I ask myself one very important question:

Wisconsin basketball has been dominant at home under head coach
Bo Ryan. The team is hoping that trend continues when a string of
six consecutive home games gets under way tomorrow as Pepperdine
visits the Kohl Center.

It's official. Thanksgiving is the most dangerous holiday of the
year.

After scoring six goals in a wild the final peroid of play
Wednesday night, the No. 3 Wisconsin women's hockey team (8-1
overall) defeated Minnesota State 7-1 at St. Mary's University in
Winona, Minn.

Political correctness is a toughie. Just about everyone thinks
there is a place for it in society, but it's hard to agree how big
its place should be. Did it just start because some sensitive
hippies were learning to resent the views of their close-minded,
'traditional' parents? Or was it a necessary condition for evolving
into an all-things-equal utopia?

MINNEAPOLIS-When a team trails by 10 points with less than three
minutes remaining, after giving up more than 400 yards on the
ground, few would expect a victory. Even the head coach.

In between studying for midterms and apple picking, I have been
keeping an eye out for the latest trends of the new school year. As
you will come to find out, I am not impressed by most of them. Your
assumptions are correct. I am the last person who should be
reporting on trends, but too bad. When the fashion-mavens and
style-watchers get their own columns, they can have at it. Until
then, I will be playing dual roles.

I probably looked like Don King after a rough night.

Back in New York, a friend of my brother once asked me what we
do for fun out in Madison.

The saying goes that all good things must come to an end. For
the UW men's basketball team, this was all too familiar Sunday when
their travel plans to St. Louis for the Final Four were cancelled.
Sixth-seeded Wisconsin (25-9) bowed out of the tournament and the
2004-'05 season after a close 88-82 battle with the heavily favored
No. 1 seed UNC Tar Heels (31-4).

It was inevitable, I suppose. Spending five years somewhere
changes a person. Boys become men. Baby faces grow stubble.
Promising young scholars discover the joys of alcohol. But I never
anticipated the latest change in me. In my last semester of
college, it finally happened.

It was a changing of the guard for Wisconsin women's basketball
Wednesday night.

Today $10 will not even fill the gas tank on the smallest of
cars. In 1917, when Irene Newman graduated from UW-Madison, that
now-paltry amount paid for an entire semester of college.

Devin Harris is doing pretty well for himself.

Last Wednesday, I gave thanks.

Ineed a good fake ID. Not necessarily for liquor purchases or
going out to the bars, but because concerts here in Madison almost
exclusively cater to the 21-plus crowd. This fact hinders about
three-quarters of the undergraduate college population from seeing
good bands performing live. So far during my college experience,
many acts came through Madison, leaving us underagers begging to
get into the show at the door, being rejected and reading the
positive reviews the following day.

Halloween has never been a creative time for me. In the late
'80s, I dressed as Ed Hearn, the backup catcher of the 1986 New
York Mets, for three straight years, because he was their only
white guy with glasses. My imagination couldn't stretch to being
another Met or wearing another costume, even though my costume
lasted three times as long as Hearn's unremarkable career with the
Mets.
