A horse that was supposed to be a sure thing dies on the track,
and some gangsters take action. A man loses his apartment and
girlfriend on the same day and then gets his nose broken within
five minutes of entering New York. Two crime bosses have not left
their apartments in 20 years for fear of each other, despite living
in adjacent buildings and seeing each other every day.

People feel a variety of emotions at any given second of any
given day: Someone may be simultaneously lonely, depressed, happy,
loved and angry. However, these feelings give life its intricate
value and individual meaning. In the two-disc album Both Sides of
the Gun, Ben Harper interweaves his various states of emotion into
his entrancing and enticing music.

I can't hold it in any longer. Here's why. It was nearly in the
60s Thursday. I grilled out for dinner—brats and dogs. I had a cold
beverage or two as well. It's that kind of weather, that kind of
behavior, that kind of beverage that just brings out the best in
any red-blooded American guy. All these signs point to one simple
thing: it's baseball time.

Go to any ATM in the country and you can withdraw cash from your
bank account—every bank across the country is integrated into an
efficient information system. Contrast this with the health care
industry, where medical records are predominantly paper (as in the
days of Florence Nightingale), which means that only your local
hospital can access your medical history with any ease.

There are many great reasons to attend UW-Madison—the excellent
academics, the party school status and possibly the greatest reason
of all: the class e-mail lists.

With the Torino Olympics over, the two-week stretch where people
pretend that they are sports fans can officially come to a close.
The people that 'oohed' and 'ahhed' at Shaun White on his snowboard
can go back to watching the X-games and people that cried along
with figure skater Sasha Cohen after her silver medal-winning falls
can return to their daily soaps.

Secretary of Education Margaret Spellings' Commission on the
Future of Higher Education recently bombed academia with the
suggestion that the government should use standardized tests to
measure public universities' success in educating students. The
Commission's final report is due by August. Apparently, the
nation's universities are not prepping us for competition in the
'new global economy' or the 'flat world' as New York Times
columnist Thomas Friedman's calls it. The Commission's
recommendation suggests that professors are mere providers of
services, and that a college student's mind can be calipered.
Higher education does need reform, but reform must go beyond
improving the service.

The banged-up UW women's basketball team hung tough against a
very good Iowa squad but came up short, losing by 68-59 Thursday
night at the Kohl Center. Free-throw shooting proved to be the
difference in the losing effort, as the Hawkeyes converted on 22 of
their 28 attempts, with the Badgers making only 4 of 14 tries.

Day after day, we observe the coverage of this Terrell Owens
saga unfold. The once reveled star has now worn out his welcome in
San Francisco and Philadelphia, not to mention infuriating players
in Baltimore without ever being on the official roster. From
speculating that his old 49er quarterback Jeff Garcia was
homosexual to publicly agreeing that his Eagle team would be better
off with Brett Favre rather than Donovan McNabb, Owens has used his
words to dig himself into a cavernous hole. The hole seems as
though it could only, even partially, be covered up if he refrains
from chattering for the rest of his career'??an essentially
impossible task.

The house Hef built has come to Madison in search of beautiful

considering its recent chart-topping in the Princeton
Review.

\Family Guy"" would not exist today without the advent of DVD.
So it feels fitting for creator Seth MacFarlane to release ""Stewie
Griffin: The Untold Story"" directly to DVD as a way of rewarding
fans.

It's hard to believe that after living in Madison for almost
four years, I had never been to one of the finest events the city
has to offer-Dane County's Farmer's Market on Capitol Square. There
is no good reason I hadn't been to it before. Distance was never an
issue and I love food and anything food-related.
