\The Barbarian Invasions"" has an obvious conclusion, enigmatic
characters and a heavy theme of mortality. Because of these
defining features, the film, now playing at Westgate Art Cinema,
340 Westgate Mall, is fantastic.

A good buffet should make you rub your stomach and groan. A good
Chinese buffet should make you do the same and enjoy it.

Malted milk requires the laughter of children to make it more
enjoyable.

Madison is not known for grand pieces of public art. The closest
things the city has to the monolithic grandeur of the St. Louis
Arch are in fact hidden from the public. One of them is masked by a
piece of art itself in the form of Frank Lloydd Wright's Monona
Terrace, while the second piece is hidden by placement in an
obscure location.

For one night, the Madison music community came together in a
symphony of thanks, cooperation and support. The first Madison Area
Music Awards honored the city's best and most creative Sunday night
at the Orpheum Theatre, 216 State St.

A meeting of past and present protesters gathered Wednesday to
confer on UW-Madison's activist past and the reasons behind
it.

Willalbys exemplifies the strange creature that is Willy Street.
Willy (and not, I insist,?? Williamson Street) is the stretch of
Madison as the city should be, as if preserved in a time without
gentrification or strip-mall boulevards. In one of the last,
genuine bastions of Madison neighborliness, Willy cannot fathom
pretensiousness and one of its diners, Willalbys perfectly follows
suit.

The Radical Rye is at the corner of State Street. Where Henry
and Johnson cut across it, State Street comes together in a
collision of a city street and a student boulevard. The six lanes
make it a curious place where a pile of pedestrians, plenty of
buses and opposing forces of Madison's persona connect. At the
Rye's corner, the downtown and the campus find a line in the
concrete that divides the two.

The UW System Board of Regents outlined its criteria for finding
a replacement for outgoing System President Katharine Lyall at the
UW System search-and-screen committee meeting Tuesday.

No matter how much it has been covered by irrigation and
interstates, the American West will always have cowboys to spare.
And, as a counterpart to cowboys, hopefully it will always offer
mustangs by their side. \Hidalgo"" brings the two together in a
union that combines the far-away look of the cowboy with the
steadfastness of the horse next to him.

These are speculative days at 315 W. Gorham. In Canterbury's
absence, Ancora Coffee Roasters is left with Avol's bookstore as a
new roommate. The coffeehouse stands stalwartly and confidently
just off of State Street

Whether the characters were talking about elevensies, how to
cook rabbits or why salted pork is a delicacy, it seems somewhat
odd that an epic gives screen time to eating. While Peter Jackson
is finding the appropriate

\Welcome to Mooseport"" is merely mildly amusing when it very
well could have been uproarious. Although the film depends on the
mismatch between Gene Hackman's dignity and Ray Romano's charm,
there is not much else here. Those two characters take the movie as
far as it can go but are drowned out by too many secondary
performers who are little more than annoying voices or
buffoons.

There are plenty of award-winning films coming to Madison in the
next few days. But don't look for them in the multiplexes and don't
expect to see them honored at this year's Oscars. The upcoming
exemplary movies are part of the Daniel Goldstein Israeli Film
Festival.

There is no proper way to eat a Cadbury Crme Egg. And that's the
way it should be.

Don't bother me about Valentine's Day. As holidays go, I
celebrate this one a little more than Boss Day but less than Boxing
Day. More than anything, it gives me an excuse to consume
gargantuan amounts of chocolate on top of tapioca pudding. With an
embarrassingly long dateless streak, the holiday just doesn't do it
for me.

Alan Lightman is capable of more than \Reunion."" His early
triumph, ""Einstein's Dreams,"" showed the considerable talents of
the professor at the Massachussetts Institute of Technology.

Tod Murphy, owner of the Farmer's Diner in Barre, Vt., is a
different type of revolutionary, the type who springs from the
soil. While most Vermonters are content with leading the nation in
maple syrup production (though he says the Canadians laugh at that
boast) Murphy wants to bring the farm to others.

\Girl with a Pearl Earring"" is one of those films that is
better left to its original medium. In this case, it's a painting.
Seventeenth century Dutch painter Johannes Vermeer has remained a
mystery for most of his life. His biography has come from legal
documents and his greatest work, ""Girl with a Pearl Earring,"" is
something of an enigma. The painting inspired a book of the same
name by Tracy Chevalier, which in turn inspired this movie. This
speculative historical fiction makes for an interesting though
untrue story.

The countryside may be coming to the city. While most students
only see the farmers in Madison on Saturday mornings at the Capitol
Square, we may be treated to some more of their fresh
produce.
