This just in—people drink a lot in Wisconsin. Over the last few
months, the State Council on Alcohol and Other Drug Abuse has been
examining ways to change Wisconsin's alcohol-based culture. This
shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone, especially college students
in Madison. Although not all students on campus come from small
Wisconsin towns that rely solely on alcohol for weekend
entertainment, most of us drank before coming to school and were
more than ready to continue the habit once we arrived in Madison,
Wisconsin.

As an incoming freshman or transfer student, the new
surroundings of UW-Madison and the city surrounding it can be a tad
intimidating, if only because they're new. Every day you'll see a
rash of names of the front page of the paper of various government
officials, university administrators and other notable figures and
organizations, but it takes some time to understand who they all
are and what it is they do. To make things easier, The Daily
Cardinal has created a cheat sheet covering most of news makers you
will see throughout the pages of our paper in the coming year.

We like, we like to party. Scratch that, Vengaboys, we here in
Madison love to party. To be exact, we love a nonstop party, the
kind whose fun is not hampered and cut short by the men in blue.
Noise complaints from angry neighbors often alert the police of
said nonstop joy that occurs at our parties, creating a mess of
tickets and fines that make the fiesta almost not worthwhile.
Almost.

I have been asked to put together a spring break safety column
as we (well, you, since I will be plunked in Madison the whole
time) depart for warm, relaxing locales. With a little help from
Colleen Jameson at the ""No, Not You"" blog, I have assembled this
list of spring break sexual assault prevention tips—guaranteed to
work!

Last week, the Wisconsin State Journal published a set of
articles on Wisconsin's industrial animal farms. The reason? It
appears some of these farms, also known as Concentrated Animal
Feeding Operations, have been getting a free pass at the public's
expense.

Durante los últimos años, las generaciones más jóvenes se han
criado en una sociedad llena de avances tecnológicos. Ciertos
avances incluyen aparatos como computadoras, teléfonos celulares,
mensajes de texto, mejoras de la red, y también, novedades en el
entretenimiento. Un ejemplo específico es el nuevo sistema de
videojuego Wii. Este tipo de juego es similar a la marca Nintendo.
Es una invención que permite a niños jugar con un controlador
inalámbrico que mueven en el aire, y el juego proyecta los mismos
movimientos en la pantalla de la televisión. Este nuevo sistema Wii
incluye entre sus juegos deportes como el tenis, piragüismo,
baloncesto, béisbol, y fútbol. Sin embargo, a pesar de las
capacidades del nuevo sistema como una nueva forma de
entretenimiento, es posible que haya creado algunos problemas. La
consola Wii es un ejemplo de como la tecnología puede ser
perjudicial para el desarrollo infantil. Puede disminuir la
actividad de los niños y contribuir a problemas de salud, como la
obesidad.
