<description>It was during an Amway business convention in Albuquerque some 20 years ago that Ruben Hopkins got his first inkling of what ailed the African-American business community. “I’d look in one room and see 50 or 60 white Amway distribu tors, talking, sharing ideas, networking,” he remembers.</description>

<description>Still enthralled by an exhausted ideolo gy, he seems unable to analyze how we can avoid manipulation by allies or adversaries while advancing our own real interests. Those interests include the cultivation of democracy but also the pro motion of regional stability and interna tional security.</description>

<description>Thanks to this kind of instability, the next U.S. president must have a tremendous sense of judgment and foresight when carrying out this nation's foreign policy. Thinking through the consequences of state ments, relationships and grudges is mandatory for a respected statesman.</description>

<description>This is not an aberration, this is now the mainstream. It’s not by accident that 81% say our leaders have led us down the wrong path. They’re not just saying that— they’re blazing their own paths. So that’s very encouraging.</description>

<description>State Rep. Leon Young has represented this district for 16 years and now faces three challengers in the Sept. 9 Democratic pri mary: a former City Hall staffer, a bed and breakfast owner, and a minister.

<description>For years, when students graduated from film school, true north seemed to lie west, in Los Angeles. The digital age, however, has freed filmmakers from relying on any one city to make their projects come alive. A group of UW-Milwaukee film school graduates pooled their resources and made their first feature film right here in Wisconsin.</description>

<description>In a dance-music age when how much an artist tours is almost always synonymous with how many records they’ve produced, there are a rare (and lucky) few who are busy trotting the globe based purely on their merits as disc jockeys. Mark Farina is one such anomaly, as is his female counterpart, the legendary dance floor damager DJ Heather.</description>

<description>It was raining Monday morning when Radio Milwaukee 88.9’s airwaves broad cast a solemn set of music, with a somber Scott Mullins hosting at an unusual time slot. Milwaukee awakened with the hard truth that DJ Rock Dee, born July 27, 1968, had passed away.</description>

<description>In the recounting of Vernon’s trip up north, most have glossed over the upcoming EP he’ll be playing music from when he performs at The Pabst Theater on Thursday, Aug. 14. To hear him describe it, the release documents the hard rock and avant-garde work he recorded during those same in-cabin ses sions—not exactly the acoustic folk he’s best known for.</description>

<description>The packaging is more artful than the work. Beautifully gathered in a lovely, folding digi-pak affair, with gorgeously impressionistic imagery (except for a distinct guitar that sup posedly identifies the item as containing something to do with rock music), we have a case study in branding with no prod uct that merits such an exquisite appearance.</description>

<description>Many people haven’t heard the name of Charles Thwaites, a Wisconsin artist who was born in Milwaukee in 1904 and graduated from the city’s Layton School of Art during the 1920s. However, they may be familiar with his work: Thwaites was one of America’s foremost portrait painters before moving to New Mexico in the ’50s.</description>
