Without much firepower on offense, there's a surefire way to tell whether the Penn women's basketball team will win or lose. When the Quakers allow their opponents to score at least 50 points in a game, they have a woeful 2-14 record. Going into this weekend's home games against Brown and Yale, the team had held opponents to less than 50 points in a game only three times.

Today at noon, the Penn Women's Center is hosting its Sex Toy Social, a popular Women's Week event. You'll probably find some vibrators and flavored lubricant - but you probably won't find anything much more spiritual than a Kama Sutra, even though the Office of the Chaplain is just across the hall.

A fraternity and sorority event was interrupted last weekend, when students at a meeting of Greek chapter presidents in the Philadelphia suburbs received citations for charges relating to underage drinking and other alcohol-related offenses. The meeting was held at the Fellowship Farm camp in New Hanover, a small township in Montgomery County about an hour outside of the city.

But we're asking you to meet us partway - and we need your feedback to help us know exactly what issues and questions matter to you.

Maybe just for a week, Penn men's basketball coach Glen Miller wished he had never left Providence, R.I., for the big, bad streets of West Philadelphia. "Penn's not an easy place to coach if you're losing," Miller said. "I think that's an understatement." Miller, who left Brown to take the job at Penn before the 2006-07 season, led his team into the Bears' Pizzitola Center Friday night with more than one monkey on his back.

NEW HAVEN, Conn., Feb. 14 - The magic surrounding Penn basketball hasn't been what it once was. But as a youthful team that has dealt with more than its fair share of struggles and setbacks, the Quakers will settle for a slightly humbler existence - one as world-class escape artists.

In Houston Hall, a girl on a cell phone paced while consulting her mom about getting the preventative treatment for meningitis. This was a common sight Saturday morning, as over 3,000 students received the antibiotic supplied by University and City public health officials over the weekend, according to University spokeswoman Phyllis Holtzman.

The three students who were hospitalized for meningococcal infections last week are now recovering, and the condition of two other students hospitalized with flu-like symptoms is not serious, University officials said yesterday. Student Health Services sent a Universitywide e-mail yesterday afternoon saying the two students were not critically ill and SHS could not confirm whether they have meningococcal infection.

Despite cold weather and dying 127 years ago, Charles Darwin was in a festive mood yesterday at the University Museum. Darwin's appearance was part of an "Evolutionary Teach-in" at the museum Sunday afternoon to celebrate Darwin's 200th birthday and his legacy of scientific thought and inquiry.

A Lambda Law protest of the national "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy last Thursday raised recurring questions of the presence of military recruiters and the Reserve Officer Training Corps on campus. The protest was held to voice dissent against the policy and to show support for members of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community while the Judge Advocate General Corps' military recruiters conducted interviews on campus.

'Vagina." There, I said it. I'll be honest - deep down, I'm an immature 5-year-old boy who gets more than a little squeamish about certain topics and . words. Which is why it might surprise you that, last week, I got out of my fairly narrow comfort zone and went to see The Vagina Monologues.

When 2-year-old Zion saw Penn students encouraging a little girl to let them check her eyes with a large camera, he removed his thumb from his mouth and cried, "I want a turn." Zion and 20 students from his day care class at the West Philadelphia Community Center, located at 36th Street and Haverford Avenue, participated in vision screenings last Thursday morning as part of Focus First, a Penn community service initiative.

Just the day after one typically filled with surprises - if you can call getting a rose from that boy who has a crush on you a "surprise" - the Penn wrestling team was hoping to add one of its own by upsetting No. 3 Cornell in Ithaca, N.Y. Unfortunately, everything went as expected yesterday in the Quakers' 24-9 loss to the Big Red, just as it had in their 32-6 win over Columbia Saturday.

Jerome Allen's best Big 5 memory goes all the way back to his first game in the unique, historic Philadelphia City Series. In the former Penn basketball guard's first career game against Temple, with the Quakers down by one as the clock wound down at the Palestra, Allen stood wide open in the corner of the court and watched teammate Vince Curran heave a turnaround jumper from 15-feet that rattled in and out.

The Penn Democrats and the Penn College Republicans broke bread and ate traditional Shabbat food together at the Lubavitch House last Friday evening. The gathering was part of the Lubavitch House's fifth-annual Unity Dinner and was co-sponsored by the Penn Democrats, the College Republicans and Penn Israel Coalition.
