Preventing Tragedies
Stephanie Felchner Kultur MilwaukeeI was 13 when the Columbine High School Massacre occured. I remember the news stations were flooded with accounts of the killings, the heartbreak, and possible warning signs. I was too young to fully comprehend the severity of the situation. I was more co

Stephanie Felchner Kultur MilwaukeeFacebook is celebrating its fourth birthday today. The popular social networking site was launched back in 2004 by Mark Zuckerberg. I hate to admit that I use it at all but I'll admit it: I'm a facebooker and I use it quite frequently.

Although separated by an ocean and multiple time zones, the Australian Outback bears remarkable resemblance to the American West. Both encompass mesas towering over rocky, dusty deserts shimmering like a mirage under unforgiving sunlight. Whip-snapping co
It can't touch Harry Potter for scope of popularity but in some pockets of pop culture, the Twilight series has reached Beatlemania in intensity. The "young adult" novels about a handsome teenage vampire boy and the mortal girl who loves him have sold 17
No, we didn't ask for an album featuring another recording of "Breathe," leading into "Time," leading into "Breathe (Reprise)," as happens on tracks two through four on Live in Gdansk. But Pink Floyd completists (we are legion) will want it anyway. Howeve
