Time and tides are conspiring to condemn the weathered old warrior to a fate two wars failed to inflict. Without a major refurbishment to its aging steel skin, the Olympia either will sink at its moorings on the Delaware River, be sold for scrap, or be scuttled for an artificial reef just off Cape May, N.J., about 90 miles south. The 5,500-ton Olympia’s caretak ers monitor every inch of its deteri orating lower hull and deck, already covered with hundreds of patches. Independent inspectors have con cluded that the ship could decay to a point beyond saving within a few years if nothing is done. “It’s an absolute national dis grace. It’s an appalling situation,” said naval historian Lawrence Burr, author of a book on Olympia. Quarterback From Page 1. Saturday night in Tuscaloosa against the defending national champions and the No. 1 college football team in the country is a sit uation that could cause Bolden’s head to spin. During practice last week and in the Youngstown State game, wide receiver Brett Brackett said team mates reminded Bolden to speak louder in the huddle because he’s soft-spoken. “He learns that, ‘All right, the defense on the other side can’t hear me like everybody can on a practice field,’ ” Brackett said. “So, he’ll learn Floor From Page 1. chemical reaction, causing a small expansion and uplifting in the build ing’s foundational concrete. “It was just enough to crack the concrete.

Visitors to the museum pay up to $l2, which includes the chance to board the warship. Since taking stewardship of the floating museum from a cash strapped nonprofit in 1996, the Independence Seaport Museum has spent $5.5 million on repairs, inspec tions and maintenance. But it can neither afford the $lO million to dredge the marina, tow the ship to dry-dock and restore it to fighting trim, nor the $lO million to establish an endowment to care for it in perpetuity., “She’s an icon,” said Jeffrey S. Nilsson, executive director of the Historic Naval Ships Association in Smithfield, Va. “She’s worthy of being saved.” Efforts to secure private or public funding have been unsuccessful, a stark reminder of recessionary times. that. That’s one thing he learned [Saturday].” Left tackle Quinn Barham said speakers, simulating the loud atmosphere of Alabama’s Bryant- Denny Stadium, will likely be out for Penn State’s practices this week. On Saturday, Bolden reiterated the plays in a loud but friendly envi ronment not in a hostile one like he’ll experience in four days. He’ll also deal with the pressure of knowing quarterbacks Kevin Newsome and Matt McGloin are viable options, either in Saturday’s game or down the road, if his per formance isn’t up to the coaches’ standards. “It’s one thing being named the starter,” Eltsina said. “It’s one thing new concrete in damaged areas.

Some School of Forest Resources students were puzzled why OPP has taken so long to initiate repairs. “It’s been like that since I came to Penn State with the cracks in the floor. It needs to be taken care of as soon as possible and I can’t believe they haven’t done anything about it yet,” Shane Brenneman (senior-for est sciences) said. The Forest Resources Building is one of about half a dozen Penn State buildings certified by the Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design (LEED) sys tem, Ruskin said. Spanier wrote in an email, Since his talk with Armstrong said he has initiated a the change, noting the coach’s grassroots campaign, handing out ambiguous response to a question to “let their Nittany Lion roar.” In addition to “Sweet Caroline,” Sugarland also covered a medley of songs that included “Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)” by Beyonce and “Parly In The USA” by MOey Cyrus in the middle of their song “Everyday America.” Nettles also sang parts of the “Bed Intruder Song” YouTtibe sen sation, encouraging attendees to watch the funny clip if they hadn’t already. “I loved how they mixed the dif ferent kinds of music together,” Adam Karlheim said. Sugarland performed “Stayin’ Alive” by the Bee Gees for the last song of its encore, and Nettles Piarulli said he’d like to have the vice president for risk management hold training sessions at the begin ning of each semester, so members can advance their training because IFC social policies often evolve. But that plan, he said, is not set in stone. The changes have garnered posi tive reactions from the community, Piarulli said with feedback indi cating the policy is fair.

The 344-foot-long protected cruis er ideally should have been dry docked every 20 years for mainte nance. Instead it has been dutifully bobbing—and quietly wasting away in the Delaware since 1945 with out a break from the wind and waves. The waterline is marked with scores of patches, and sections of the mazelike lower hull are so cor roded that sunlight shines through. Above deck, water sneaks past the concrete and rubberized sur face layers, past the rotting fir deck underneath, and onto the hand somely appointed officers’ quarters below. “She generally looks good for her age, but her expensive pre-existing conditions make it daunting,” said Jesse Lebovics, longtime caretaker of Olympia. “We’re still hoping someone will step up..

And that’s what you have to expect from a quarterback, and it’s surprising because he’s only in his freshman year.” To e-mail reporter: bjmsl46@psu.edu LEED is a nationally recognized green building certification system, initiated to certify Penn State build ings for campus sustainability, Ruskin said. “Getting green building certifica tions is important to OPP We want to minimize the university’s carbon footprint,” Ruskin said.
