deprivation or you were recently rescued from the bottom of a well

what risks there are for all you \pirates"" (their word, not mine),
here is the first half of a two-part guide to the nooks and
crannies of the big music labels' anti-file-sharing drive.

The Madison Common Council passed an ordinance last spring
raising the city's minimum wage. The alders were aiming to help the
working poor in a way that federal and state officials have
miserably failed to. Sponsors of Madison's effort realized the need
to help those who work full-time and yet barely earn enough to
live. But Republicans in the Wisconsin Legislature refuse to
understand. They have blocked a statewide wage increase that was
supposed to begin last fall. And now they are trying to stop local
communities from ever again deciding how much their workers should
earn.

State lawmakers are currently attempting to ban the UW from
being able to offer forms of birth control to students after they
have provided the service for many years. Although the issue of
family planning is open to debate, it is unfortunate that this
subject has again entered the spotlight. Rep. Daniel LeMahieu,
R-Oostburg, who has initiated the controversial debate, most
recently said he was outraged by ads placed in both student
newspapers. The ads advocated students acquiring an advance on
emergency contraceptives before leaving town for spring
break.

The exchanges between students sitting in the O and P sections
of Camp Randall during football games in the fall and the treaties
negotiated between American Indians and British colonists in the
eighteenth century may have more in common than one initially
perceives. Indeed, the land that currently bears the name Camp
Randall was originally American Indian property. Furthermore, the
exchanges between colonists and indigenous peoples probably
included a few choice words.

Dear Chancellor Wiley:
(02/15/05 6:00am)
Consider these facts: Your grandmother is 90 years old and lives
in New Jersey (where she's lived her whole life and where your
parents grew up). Her reasonably good health is shattered when she
is felled by a stroke. She has become incompetent and needs to
enter a nursing home. The homes near her are not well-regarded,
plus, your parents, who now live in Wisconsin, would like her to
live closer to them (and to you). Your parents can get her into a
top-notch nursing home near their home in Madison. And, thanks to a
lifetime of saving and long-term care insurance, your grandmother
can pay whatever it costs. That's the good news.

With nearly half a million copies sold, \He's Just Not That Into
You"" is well on its way to becoming the Bible for women in sub-par
relationships. Authors of this popular ""how-to"" manual-""Sex and
the City"" consultant Greg Behrendt and writer Liz Tuccillo-advise
women to stop excusing their man's inattentiveness. Instead, as the
title states, it's time to realize ""he's just not that into you.""
