There are three pivotal facts I learned from my first Halloween experience in Madison last year. First, Zachery Binx, the loyal, scrawny brother-turned-black-cat devoted to thwarting the three witches of Salem in the movie ""Hocus Pocus,"" is actually named Thackery. Salem folk celebrated their virginity by lighting candles and speaking with heavy lisps. Second, pumpkins, pre-Jack-o-lantern, are unusually long-lasting vegetables that can add a festive touch to a windowsill for up to seven months. And third, Freakfest, with its newly minted safe and positive reputation, is a contradiction in itself that is not worth students' time.
Short of a visit from the nation's commander-in-chief, the buzz surrounding Saturday's match between the No. 18 Wisconsin Badgers (1-1 Big Ten, 5-5 overall) and the No. 1 Ohio State Buckeyes 2-0, 6-0) is as palpable as any campus event this year. With an evening start, a national television audience and a top-ranked opponent in the house, the atmosphere is sure to be electric from sun-up to well past dark.

After New Year's it was revealed that Federal animal welfare inspectors who visited UW in December found twenty violations on campus. Violations included dogs that did not receive adequate veterinary care despite vomiting and failing to produce urine and unsanitary operating rooms. Amidst an uproar over the ethics of animal research and an argument about whether or not UW should be participating in animal research, focus has drifted from what really plagues the UW animal research programs, namely a lack of oversight.

The Wisconsin women's basketball team began its defense as the best team in the state with a 64-55 victory over the UW-Milwaukee Panthers at the Klotsche Center Thursday evening.

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.
After a devastating—albeit unsurprising—loss to Ohio State last week, the Badgers take on the Iowa Hawkeyes at Camp Randall tomorrow. Given last year's precipitous drop-off following their first loss, the team needs to win this game to show the nation it is a contender in the Big Ten title picture. Last week, Athletic Director Barry Alvarez gave the team a pep talk, hoping to spark enough excitement to pull off an upset at the Horseshoe. This week, I offer my own motivational technique in hopes of spurring the Badgers to a truly happy Homecoming weekend.
