By JARED SZYMURSKI JRS952@psu.edu Lion's Eye staff writer On Jan. 25, the PSU Delco Hockey team hosted Rutgers at Ice Works, on Dutton Mills Road, in Aston, PA. Penn State seemed to own the first peri- od, including the penalty box. Pat Cleary led off the game with the first goal, and Ryan Cell recieved the first penal- The high spirits in the seats faded though, when Rutgers revisited the goals upon Penn State two-fold, scoring consecu- tive goals, one by Rutgers' William and the other by Marello. The second period was a tribute Rutgers’ Photo by Derek Rieck Bill Crawford , Delco defense, plays hard with the rest of the team. defense. Despite playing with at least a one-man disadvantage for most of the peri- od, Rutgers held Penn State to one goal, made by Matt Bedwell. And holding true to form, Rutgers answered up with a goal from Baily. Rutgers spent most of the third period on the defensive, displaying once again their man-down defense, spending a third of the period in a two-man disadvantage and holding Penn State to no goals. Putting the nail in the coffin, Seiden of Rutgers put one last goal in past Jeff Wild, the Penn State goalkeeper. Tempers flared, and the fans were delighted by a very physical last peri- od. "I'm just sorry we didn't win it for you guys," said Pat Cleary, forward. The Computer Guy Four cool ways you can save some high-tech bucks I'd like to dedicate this issue to my favorite topic: Saving money. As Penn State students, you are offered many services that can save you money, such as free web hosting or free dial-up service. I have noticed that these services, while readily available, go unused. At first I thought that students wanted to pay for things they can get for free, but this went against the "poor college student" model that many of us portray. So the other con- clusion was that they simply didn't know about them. Well, the objective of this issue is to educate the student body to ‘some of the services offered to them. ' That way, we can have more utilization, ‘and wealthier students. 1) Web-based training. Perhaps the ‘best kept secret in Penn State, these web- based tutorials teach many technology concepts, programming languages, oper- ating systems, and applications. The sys- tem has even been updated to offer cours- es in management topics, career topics, and personal improvements. All you need \ is your user ID and password to gain access from anywhere. The tutorials are anywhere from 5 hours to 10 hours each, or more. You can take them at your leisure, and the site will remember where you left off if you quit and come back again. With the new and improved ver- sion of the site, you can even download the tutorials and view them off-line! Web-based training can be accessed at: http://www.wbt.psu.edu/ 2) Personal Web Space. Penn State offers every student, staff member, facul- ty, and club free web space for a web page. This page can be used to put any- slice of the web space, you must first pass a 5 question on-line test to make sure you understand the rules and terms of your web space. After that, your request is sub- mitted, and in 3 business days you have your space! Now all you need to do is learn HTML. But wait! There's a web- based training topic on beginning HTML. Now you can see how these things fit together. Anyway, your Personal Web Space can be accessed or attained at: http://personal.psu.edu/ You will need to download a secure FTP client if you wish to access and update your page from home. You can find this FTP Client on the ITS discs that Computer Services gives out. 3) Free Dial-up Access. Students are entitled to free dial-up service at any Penn State Campus. This means you can connect to the internet, get your email, IM your buddies, or download files with- out having to pay AOL, MSN, or any other Internet Service Provider (ISP). This service is only available while you are a PSU student, so take advantage of it By JONATHAN LEONHARD thing an individual wants to express on while you can!

In order to procure your by Computer Services for an ITS disc (a cd-rom) and an Internet Connection Guide. CAUTION: Make sure the num- ber you call for dial-up is in your local calling area, otherwise you will be charged by the phone company! FYI: Penn State Delco's number is 610-892- 7147. 4) Cheap Microsoft Software. Finally, as a PSU student, you pay a com- puter user fee. Ever wonder where that goes? Among other things, it subsidizes PC and software purchases, including Microsoft products. By this license agreement, you are entitled to purchase a copy of Office XP, Windows XP, or Visual Studio.Net. These titles are yours to keep, for the low low price of $30. To get the software, you must visit www.computerstore.psu.edu. I hope this has given some insight into the many services that Penn State offers its students. With a little looking around, you may be able to find many, many more. Questions? Comments? Ideas for the next issue? email JGL115@psu.edu
