NEWS

Local residents who use natural gas or heating oil to heat their homes will see the effects of rising crude oil prices on their wallets this winter.

The preliminary hearing in the case of a Howard man charged with rape and incest has been continued indefinitely.

Penn State students looking for a good dining experience tonight may also be able to help Hurricane Katrina victims.

At 8 a.m. in the Forum a beach ball is launched into a mass of psychology students clad in hoodies and holding coffee cups.

Sunday beer sales have been lower than expected since state legislation first allowed beer distributors to open on Sundays Labor Day weekend.

For better or worse, wiki software could change the way students share information and learn about Penn State classes and student groups.

Supermodels, sousaphones and clarinets -- one can find all these things in an unlikely spot: between the glossy pages of December's Vogue magazine.

Moving to a new place can be a trying and hectic experience -- especially for sports teams and fans that grow attached to them.

A statewide shortage of the oral HIV test OraSure has forced Penn State's University Health Service's Office of Health Promotion and Education to stop administering free HIV tests.

The newly renovated Schlow Centre Region Library may offer students living off campus an alternative to the often crowded and farther away Pattee and Paterno Libraries.

SPORTS

Flying home from Madison, Wisc., the atmosphere on the plane was somewhat mixed.

There are enough examples of the dreaded "sophomore slump" to give credence to the saying. When baseball Hall of Famer Willie Mays won the rookie of the year award in 1951, one could bet that he didn't expect to bat .236 with four home runs in 1952.

There are times where it seems like your team is just stuck in a rut.

At his weekly press conference, Joe Paterno said No. 6 Ohio State (3-1, 1-0 Big Ten) could be one of the toughest teams he has ever faced as head coach.

When Laura Holm was a 10-year-old, her sister Kim would play pepper with her in the backyard of their suburban home in the outskirts of Chicago. As the two were passing a volleyball back and forth, Kim doubted her younger sibling's chances from the beginning.

Imagine if Penn State's Larry Johnson could return to his alma mater for one more year of eligibility. Well, the No. 2 Penn State ACHA Division I Icers don't have to daydream about such a possibility -- they're living it.

Staying up till the wee hours of the morning, procrastinating and having free time are all concepts that college students take for granted. But for the members of the Penn State women's cross country team, these ideas maybe as abstract as Picasso's "Femme a la Fleur."

Playing a night game under the lights of Beaver Stadium in front of 107,000-plus people is undoubtedly a dream come true for many members of this year's Penn State football team.
