I have always been blessed with a fashion-forward mom. My mom works at a small boutique in my hometown that sells antiques, home decor, jewelry and clothing. On so many occasions when the two of us chat about her work day, I hear the same story over and over again. “A woman about my age […]

A majority of songs released throughout history have followed similar structural patterns: most, in some order, utilize a verse, chorus, bridge, hook, and refrain. To fit all of these sections, songs tend to be around three to six minutes in length, depending on factors such as tempo and repetitions of individual structures. Things start to […]

Entertainment is a pretty big business and highly observed by the masses because, well, that’s their audience. We mostly talk about music, movies and television: who’s starring in what show? What singles are in the top 10? When it comes to video games, however, not many people or news sources seem to give a d*mn. In reality, the video game […]

As an enduring fan of the Milwaukee Bucks since the 1990-1991 season, I have witnessed some of the most mind-numbing draft picks in the history of modern-day sports. Don’t believe me? Google Marcus Haislip, Yi Jianilan or Joe Alexander, I’ll wait… What in the hell were they thinking, right? Unfortunately, those are only three of […]

In all honesty, this season has been a fascinating surprise for the Milwaukee Brewers. Nobody was expecting the Crew to be in the top of the division after finishing 73-89 last season. Their record was good enough to finish second to last in the NL Central last year. The Brewers have flipped the switch in a […]

Universal healthcare. Something we all can agree is a good idea, but the way that Republicans and Democrats go about it is something that is as controversial and heated as the gun debate. When President Obama signed the Affordable Care Act (ACA) into law in 2010, Republicans were furious. And now, Trumpcare, or the American Health Care Act, looms on […]

Your delivery driver may be disappearing sooner than you think. Before you become concerned about the temperature of your incoming pizza, rest assured, companies like Drive.ai have got your back (and maybe your pizza too). We are fast approaching a revolution in the way transportation moves us. This should come as no surprise to anyone. […]

Editor’s note: Students in JAMS 342 Television news Reporting occasionally have the opportunity to anchor news, weather and sports at WTMJ-TV, Milwaukee’s NBC affiliate. This happens when WTMJ runs mock newscasts to train new directors, technical directors and other behind the scenes personnel. This is a personal account from Ninia Linero.   Anchoring at TMJ4 […]

The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee is expecting a 2.4 percent decline in enrollment this fall, in part driven by a drop in international students, Chancellor Mark Mone said in his fall plenary address on Thursday.
