Video of the Day: And the Oscar DOESN'T go to...
While the film industry celebrated excellence last night at the Academy Awards, guess which movie did the best business at the box office over the weekend? If you said "Madea Goes to Jail," take a gold statue for yourself.

It's the middle of cold and flu season in Milwaukee and the editorial staff is operating at fever pitch. This week's batch of "stuff we really like right now" is an eclectic mix of very cool music from very different genres, an entertaining group of Japanese kids movies, a spectacular time-wasting Web site, a fun corner-bar and diversion and a delicious sandwich from a local restaurant (Cubanitas, pictured).

"Slumdog" cleans up nicely at Golden Globes bash
Amid the $5,000 tuxedos, $50,000 evening gowns and $200,000 necklaces at the Golden Globes awards show Sunday night, a simple rags-to-riches movie about a poor kid in India looking for love and reality-show success dominated the awards. "Slumdog Millionaire" won four awards, including best drama, best director, best screenplay and best musical score. If you haven't seen "Slumdog" yet and plan to do so before the Academy Awards air on Feb. 22, expect a more crowded theater when you go.
