While it worked wonders for Sonny and Cher, the marriage seems to be an untapped mechanism in popular music, which may be a good thing in all likelihood. Considering most pop songs deal with the topics of heartbreak and lust, an album full of ""What's for dinner, honey?"" just isn't nearly as marketable.
Four middle-aged, wannabe bikers, Tim Allen, Martin Lawrence, William H. Macy and John Travolta, embark on a cross-country journey with no particular plan. In fact, the tagline for the film is ""a lot can happen on the road to nowhere."" It should actually be ""road to nowhere."" Half the film is comprised of montage sequences of b-roll, filler in which the foursome cruise down the highway to the tune of Foghat's ""Slow Ride"" and then periodically stop to urinate on the side of the road. The other half of the film is equally unbearable.
On March 6, Joseph Lindstrom lashed out against me for having a ""spokesperson"" on my campaign. '
Students must take advantage of safety resources and be aware of dangerous situations. Madison is a growing city and crime is inevitable, but it does not mean we cannot all be proactive in preventing it.'
Former UW-Madison Chancellor and current United States Department of Health and Human Services secretary Donna Shalala was appointed by President Bush Tuesday to lead an investigation at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, D.C.'

The federal government's brilliant plan to reduce the national budget deficit not only threatens students' reproductive rights, but could also cost students thousands of dollars after graduation.'
As a fan of the French band Air, and particularly of their last album, 2004's Talkie Walkie, I was excited to hear their latest album, Pocket Symphony. Unfortunately, the duo of Nicolas Godin and Jean-BenoArt Dunckel seem to have traded in electronic-textured pop music for meandering minimalist instrumentals and Jarvis Cocker guest appearances. The latter crime against music (unless you like Jarvis Cocker, in which case, ignore this comment), on the song ""One Hell of a Party,"" plods on interminably for four minutes with Cocker droning on about the ""burned-out husk of the morning"" after ""one hell of a party."" I found it insufferable; maybe you'd like it.
A ""noticeable spike"" in downtown crime in the first half of 2006 led city officials to push for a separate fund for downtown safety programs. In February, the City Council passed the Downtown Safety Initiative—$100,000 set aside for the Madison Police Department's central district.
Gov. Jim Doyle defended the money his campaign received from indicted businessman Dennis Troha and said he will wait until Troha's court case to decide whether or not to return the cash in an interview with WISC-TV Wednesday.'
In his past albums, Say Hi to Your Mom frontman Eric Elbogen has been known to spill his angst into clever songs about spaceships and robots; however, on the band's fourth and newest release, Impeccable Blahs, he chose to move onto a slightly darker material. The liner notes explicitly state that ""Impeccable Blahs is a record about vampires."" However, they are ""not creepy goth vampires but rather people like you and me who happen to get their nourishment from drinking blood."" An interesting subject matter for a band that once specialized in detailing the angst of girls and video games, but it works well for them. Elbogen continues to write witty lyrics, this time using vampire tendencies as a metaphor for romantic human love, resulting in an album that is both fun and intelligent.
Sports editor Zach Kukkonen is wondering what's gotten into the water most general managers and athletes are drinking lately.'
Tourists can expect ""Great Moments"" in Wisconsin while they go-kart in Wisconsin Dells, fish on Lake Superior or visit the Milwaukee art museum. '
\Are you going to give me my calculus notes?"" Dina Marie asked the man who had just sexually assaulted her. He was about to let her out of his car onto campus. He had already handed over her purse after rummaging through it. She took her notes, which had been lying on the back seat.
Ann Coulter doesn't degrade politics in this country. The people who enable her do.'
With about 408,000 SAFEbus rides given in the 2006 fiscal year and the yearly cost to operate a bus rising, UW-Madison Transportation Services continues to look at improving routes and increasing the number of riders.
SAFEcab provides transportation to students between 10:30 p.m. and 3 a.m. within a two-mile radius of the UW-Madison campus. If it's between 10:30 p.m. and 1 a.m. and the student is within a one-mile radius of campus they will be directed to use SAF'
he most important game in the Big Ten Tournament's first round as far as the Badgers are concerned is the No. 7 vs. No. 10 game, which features Michigan State and Northwestern. The Badgers play the winner Friday in Chicago at 1:30 p.m.'
San Miguel should be something special, or at least unique. All the signs are there: the fancy bottle, the crest, the fact that it's brewed in the Philippines, to name a few. But this beer is stolidly uninspiring.
