With each additional loss, the frustration continued to build.

The chance to win a million dollars is something most college students dream of. At the beginning of October, three Penn State students were given that chance.

A new store will soon call Hills Plaza home -- the question is, which one?

"Twenty-five? ... Do I hear 30? ... Thirty over there! ... Do I hear 35?"

Todd Steck, 39, of 334 S. Academy St., Boalsburg, was arraigned yesterday on multiple criminal charges stemming from incidents that occurred over the past two years.

A dash of Colin Farrell here, a pinch of Al Pacino there, and you're assured to have a stellar film, right? This is reality, folks, not Hollywood. Throwing star power and a big budget into the filmic oven does not always produce a mouth-watering movie, and The Recruit is no different.

A record that the listener can fall asleep to is not necessarily a bad thing; in fact, the ones that do this the best are rare. The Sea and Cake's latest offering, One Bedroom, is the kind of album one can put on and drowse causally into a morphine-like state.
