Premiering a decade ago on MTV's Liquid Television, 'Aeon Flux' was one of a handful of shows that served as a predecessor for experimental cartoon networks like Adult Swim. An avant-garde show with anime influence and undertones of fetishism, 'Aeon Flux' always seemed like it had a deeper meaning but was obtuse enough for that meaning to remain out of reach.

The University of Wisconsin men's basketball team (5-1) continued to show they possess a variety of scoring options, as it seems that every game a new player steps up with a breakout performance.

When I was a freshman just getting situated in the dorms, the first thing I did was hop a bus to the nearest art theater. I went to high school in the dinky town of Hurley, Wis., which itself doesn't even have a movie theater or video store. If you cross the Michigan border into Ironwood, you'll find only a Family Video (where I worked, of course) and a rather pitiful little four-screen multiplex (which I also briefly worked at) with a penchant for getting only the most mainstream movies. Sooner or later most Oscar contenders would come to us, but most of the time, if you didn't want to see 'Harry Potter' or the latest Julia Roberts movie, you'd be out of luck. So when I came to Madison, I was as excited about the Hilldale Theatre and Westgate Art Cinemas as I was about college girls and beer.
