Michigan women's basketball coach Cheryl Burnett has a simple response when asked about the Lady Lions' season thus far. Like many other teams that are about to start its season, the Penn State men's track and field team has a lot questions that need to be answered as early as possible. The Penn State women's indoor track team will look to jump off the starting block this Saturday on its home track. After a very successful 2003 campaign that resulted in a third-place finish at last year's Big Ten Championships, the squad is poised to have another standout season. About a dozen times during the 40 minutes that the Penn State men's basketball team tried to compete with Michigan State last night, the Spartan fans in the Breslin Center got to play a big role on defense. There will be more at stake tonight for one member of the Penn State women's basketball team than just another Big Ten game when the No. 8 Lady Lions (11-3, 4-0 Big Ten) travel to Ann Arbor to take on the Michigan Wolverines (9-7, 2-1) at 7.

Did u know dat u don't hav to col ur frnds on ur fone nemore? A renowned Washington, D.C.-based band will provide '30s- and '40s-era music Saturday night for an upbeat installment of Late Night Penn State with an open swing dance featuring the Brooks Tegler Big Band. Miss Saigon, one of Broadway's longest running and internationally acclaimed musicals, will entertain audiences at the Eisenhower Auditorium from Wednesday to Saturday. A collection of rarely-shown American art will escape its cardboard boxes for an exhibition at the Palmer Museum of Art this semester. Local jam band Harvey Controls Everything has come a long way since its early gig at a strip club in Port Matilda.

Adoption, neurosis, the search for one's past -- few films have tackled these topics with as much humor as David O. Russell's 1996 comedy, Flirting With Disaster. The film, which stars Ben Stiller, is a wild and irreverent road movie, one that features biting wit with a healthy dose of amusing slapstick comedy. This weekend marks one of the largest-scale Late Night Penn State lineups of the semester, featuring ballroom dancing, massage therapy and free billiards. But perhaps the most compelling attraction will be renowned hypnotist Tom Deluca, who will perform at 10 p.m. tomorrow in HUB Alumni Hall.
