With the wind blowing out to left and the Penn State baseball team down by a run in the bottom of the eighth inning of yesterday's game with St. Bonaventure, the table was set perfectly for a dramatic ending. Scott Gummo never gets anything to hit. The 2004 Olympic Games don't get underway until August, but someone forgot to tell a certain Penn State gymnast. With a minute remaining in the second overtime, the tag team of Steph Curnoles coupled with the emotion and aggravation of four one-goal losses tackled teammate Shari Maslin to the ground. It caught most everyone off guard when things got a little shaky the top of the fourth inning in game two. It's kind of like what every retired war-veteran has preached a million times before -- utilize every option possible. The No. 12 Lady Ruggers showcased their depth last night at the west ruby field on campus. Clarion threw its best at Penn State's B-side only to be completely dominated in a 31-12 shellacking.

The Musicology tour stops at the Bryce Jordan Center on Sunday, April 18. The deadline for entering films in the Student Film Festival, sponsored by Penn State's Student Film Organization, has come and gone, and with it the possibility of some senior film projects being screened at the April 29 event. We took the opportunity to discuss the plots, themes and inspirations of some of this year's crop of senior films with the directors themselves. Three separate stories conveying different philosophies on life all share the concept of American realism and prove that the country's development is never complete. For many people, the familiar strains of "Edelweiss" and "Do-Re-Mi" stir up childhood memories of comfort and home. For Amy Jane Finnerty, The Sound of Music offers a homecoming of another sort. Admit it. There's probably been more than one occasion when you've heard yourself singing about "raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens." Whether you're the most jaded college student or the biggest tough guy, it's hard to deny the infectious spirit of The Sound of Music. Even if you haven't seen the movie, there's a good chance you know a couple bars from "My Favorite Things" or "So Long, Farewell," or are even just familiar with the work of Julie Andrews. If you had to guess, what kind of music do you think a band called Frog Holler plays: alt-country, or perhaps hip-hop? For the young, and the young at heart, Easter is a day of celebration, family and most importantly, Easter baskets -- candy-colored eggs and shiny plastic grass stuffed inside a festive basket, awaiting the arrival of the Easter Bunny and all the sugar-coated bliss that comes along. It's been a busy Lent for old Jesus, what with Mel and his Passion and gays with their marriage. McCoy Tyner has played with everybody who's anybody in jazz. But Monday, the spotlight is his. Centre Dimensions wraps up another year of jazz Wednesday with its final concert of the year. From the slums of Shaolin to the streets of State College, Method Man is coming. Canadian punk rockers Boys Night Out bring its hard, driving music and energetic show to State College at 9:30 p.m. on Wednesday at Crowbar, 420 E. College Ave. Here's a worst case scenario. You're off on a honeymoon in some romantic location when you discover that your ex-wife is also spending her own honeymoon in the same hotel. Not only that, but she's staying in the room next to yours, and the two of you share a balcony. Tired of beer and pizza? The reason the Discovery Channel is so good is that we all learn when we watch, and there isn't any required background to understand before a program starts.
