Madison Mayor Dave Cieslewicz sent a letter to state Sen. Fred
Risser D-Madison, Tuesday applauding his opposition to Republican
tax legislation such as the Taxpayer Bill of Rights.

For a band that tends to write melancholic songs about the
outcast and overlooked members of society (Judy hiding under the
covers with a flashlight reading about horses or Anthony hiding
melted Toblerone under his school uniform), Belle and Sebastian
have made an abrupt 180 on their new album, The Life Pursuit. An
album of undeniably fun and upbeat songs, this release is already
'pursuing' higher chart positions. The first single, a simple but
delightfully catchy pop song that dares to rhyme 'poet' with
'throat' (pronounced 'throw-it'), is currently at No. 13 on the
British charts.

The much-anticipated sixth and final season of the Sopranos is
set for release on March 12. Many have been feverishly watching HBO
On-Demand, which is playing all five previous seasons in
succession, but others who refuse to wait need only to watch the
underground crime scene in Madison, which is staging its own
version of mob drama right before our eyes.

The calm voice over for Master Card lists many expensive
purchases, but makes them all worth while with a concluding
'priceless' item. This version shows a father taking his son to a
baseball game, a lost puppy and even a favorite cartoon
nuclear-safety inspector.

In another example of minor crime near the UW-Madison campus, a
22-year-old female student was robbed Friday night as she walked
with friends on the 200 block of West Gilman Street.

Companies who manufacture officially licensed apparel products
will be required to purchase at least 25 percent of their goods
from factories that allow some form of unionization for workers,
under UW-Madison's pilot program, Chancellor John Wiley announced

In writing and passing amendments banning same-sex marriage,
socially-conservative politicians across the country have relied
heavily on the religious convictions of their constituencies for
support. These convictions have won in all of the states amendments
have been introduced'leading to 19 amended constitutions.

Per capita, Madison has more restaurants than any other city in
the United States. We love to eat, but what goes into our dining
decisions? Most obviously, people look for a certain type of food,
taking into consideration the cost and the dining environment.

Senior forward Kjersten Bakke is the type of player that every
coach loves to have on their team.

The torture scandal surfaced two years ago with digital
photographs from Iraq's Abu Ghraib Prison. Now, we are poised for a
second round of Abu Ghraib exposure, which will include videos. The
Pentagon is fighting U.S. District Judge Alvin K. Hellerstein's
September order to release four videos and 87 additional
photographs turned in by Sgt. Joseph Darby. But legal issues,
rather than visual images, will keep the torture scandal alive in
the coming years if not decades. These sorts of things do not fade
away, as Chile's Pinochet or our own Kissinger might attest.

Senior Simon Bairu has received more than a fair share of honors
during his time at Wisconsin. The Saskatchewan native has been
everything from an All-American to an NCAA cross country champion.
Bairu has even been a two-time Canadian Cross Country champion. But
is the personal glorification given to Bairu, even with the awards
or the headlines, really all that fulfilling?

Week-to-week this season, it's been a familiar script for the
Wisconsin Badgers football team (4-1 Big Ten, 7-1 overall). One
side of the ball is playing with swagger and success, the other
enduring mishaps and miscues.

Al Pacino is a great actor with an interesting dilemma. His
commanding screen presence is so distinctive and so forceful that
he often gets accused of overacting. Yes, he does hoot and holler
profanely in just about every performance-in fact, I would say he's
got the patent on eruptions of onscreen rage-but his torrents of
anger are usually essential and, damn it, hugely entertaining.

Hurricane Katrina victims who have transferred to a UW System
school this fall will attend classes for free, with the stipulation
that if students decide to remain in the UW System for more than
one semester, they must then pay for the free credits.

With the death of William Rehnquist this past Saturday, the
Supreme Court is at a turning point. Two seats are now open and
President Bush is gearing up for a grueling fight over his
nominees. Within 36 hours of Rehnquist's death, John Roberts was
nominated to replace him as Chief Justice.

Citing swiftly moving lines, a minimum of hassle and a more
focused and responsive audience, the Athletic Department does not
hesitate to label the new football ticket distribution process a
success.

In response to growing criticism about the current U.S. Food
Pyramid, the U.S. Department of Agriculture recently released its
revised Dietary Guidelines for Americans.

I'm worried about the status of our men's basketball team for
next season. Head coach Bo Ryan has a lot on his plate since he has
to replace five seniors, four of which were starters, and possibly
associate head coach Rob Jeter, who has been interviewed by
UW-Milwaukee for the head coach position.
