Charred remains destroyed

The walls that saw more than 50 years of family trials and treasures -- Wynn Meyers' memories -- are in a pile of rubble in the place the house once stood.

The shelves, aisles and walls are now half-empty and cardboard boxes are stacked in the corner waiting to cart the remaining records, CDs and movies out the door.


SPORTS

The State College Spikes offense proved there is life without Mark Hamilton.

Letters to the editor
ARTS

Reliving one's adolescence isn't something everyone wants to do, but Curtis Sittenfeld takes readers back to the tumultuous times of high school in her novel "Prep."

The State College Community Theatre is performing a murder mystery with enough twist to shock even famed director M. Night Shyamalan.

Hearing The Rolling Stones played as bluegrass might be a shock to some, but for Open Timbre, it's not "only rock and roll," and they like it.

The bar scene

Imagine the life of an indie rocker to be something like the first world of Super Mario Brothers.

Most people can agree on what signifies "cute": Puppies, kittens, babies. They're all cute.

Many Nittany Lion fans feel that Penn State football is life, but for head coach Joe Paterno, that statement is literal.

With temperatures reaching as high as 90 degrees last week, sitting in a sweltering dorm room with no air conditioning was simply unbearable for some students.

What if the Philadelphia Eagles and Pittsburgh Steelers were suddenly combined?

After winning the Pulitzer Prize three times for his columns at the New York Times, Thomas L. Friedman continues to amaze the masses with his keen perspective on the life that surrounds them.
