Regardless of the outcome of tomorrow's Dane County Board of Supervisors' election, District 5 representation will be greatly improved. However, we must raise a voice in opposition to the Editorial Board's endorsement of Democratic candidate Analiese Eicher. Eicher, who we are sure would make the Dane County seat more visible on campus and greatly improve student outreach, is regrettably ill-prepared for the job of District 5 representative.
Seniors Chris Maragos and O'Brien Schofield are leading an improved Wisconsin defense this season. Both are enjoying career years. Maragos leads the Badgers in interceptions with three, including one to secure the victory over Fresno State. Schofield has racked up 6.5 sacks and 16.5 tackles for loss while getting national attention for his skills. While the defensive is prone to struggle to stay strong all game, the leadership of Maragos and Schofield is the key to this squad's success.

UW-Madison stem-cell researcher and professor of anatomy James Thomson worried little about the funding for stem-cell research during President Bush's terms. He especially did not think it impacted the amount of people involved in stem-cell research.
I don't think I'm alone here when I say that most UW students don't enjoy the week after Mifflin. Reality sets in quickly and I realize what an absurd amount of reading needs to be done to make up for a semester of relentless procrastination. But while the idea of finals sounds nauseating, the week after Mifflin is also a week closer to summer, an amazing time to be a sports fan. This summer offers another exciting schedule, so here's a preview of some top events to look forward to in the summer of 2009.
Wisconsin cross country runner Landon Peacock thought that if the Badgers' Big Ten title streak was ever going to end while he was on the team, it would have happened this year. Since Wisconsin had its two top returners struggling with injuries early in the season, two good runners transferring out and a new head coach, it appeared Michigan had a decent shot at upsetting the Badger dynasty, especially at the Wolverines' home course.
From summer workouts to the first day they ran the hill and all the way to the NCAA Tournament, one word led the way to an improbable season for the Wisconsin men's basketball team. Four letters spell it out clearly on the wall of Bo Ryan's office: NEXT.""
How many of you experienced your first kiss during a movie? At the theater watching something PG-13, or maybe in your parents' basement, the VCR rolling and the door shut at the top of the stairs. Even now, in the false maturity of our college years, make-out movies are still happening with a vengeance. Everybody's always talking about ""To Kill a Mockingbird,"" ""Annie Hall,"" ""The Godfather""—big, sweeping events that leave you breathless and oversexed by the art of filmmaking. Why aren't we talking about one of the single greatest reasons that movies exist at all? MAKING OUT. Anyway, I got people talking about it, and here's what they said:

JEFFERSON, WI, Nov. 20-A lonely handful of striking workers clustered outside the entrance to the Tyson pepperoni plant at 5:30 a.m., some bundled up in winter coats and stocking caps to block against the biting wind. Their breath fogged in the chilly dark as they huddled 10 feet from the plant's only open gate, talking and holding picket signs.

This winter break brought us movies of all shapes and sizes. From Spielberg and Scorcese to Clooney's directorial debut, there's a lot to sift through and I'm ready to break it down for you. But first, I must provide one caveat in regard to a couple of notable absences. I did not see \The Hours"" or ""Chicago."" I had two reasons for not seeing these movies. First and foremost, I didn't want to. Secondly, all of my theatergoing was with my brother, and something about ""The Hours"" and ""Chicago"" just doesn't scream male bonding. With that said, let's get to the movies.
