In Arizona, voters will decide today on a ballot measure that would reward one lucky voter with lottery funds.
I took a photo, too To the Editor: I am writing to acknowledge that the photo I took with a student at the annual Halloween Party ("Controversy erupts over student in terror garb," DP, 11/3/06) has caused a kind of wounding to some in the Penn community. I did not immediately associate what I saw of the student's costume with the kind of gear worn by a suicide bomber.

With college life such a great environment for diseases to spread, the University should be helping students get vaccinated.
As much as Bob Casey may claim, this election is not about electing Bob Casey to the U.S. Senate. This election is about removing Rick Santorum from it. Santorum, a two-term senator, is passionate and works hard for Pennsylvania. He has delivered, with major funding appropriations - and is in a position to become the No.
As many of you have heard or seen by now, there was a photograph from our annual Halloween party that has taken flight over the Internet.
Let's play a little game. I'll give you two description of one of Penn's college houses, and you'll try to guess which one is more accurate. For the moment, let's call our test case "Gutmann College House." Gutmann is the complete college house. It is ideally located near major academic buildings, libraries, retail shops and athletic facilities.
Anyone would be tough-pressed to find a major incumbent in Pennsylvania more deserving of a second term that Ed Rendell. Especially if you're voting in Philadelphia; Rendell has been great for the city and the state. Before Rendell took office in 2002, Pennsylvania was ranked 42nd of all states for job growth.

Apology owed To the Editor: I just wanted to congratulate President Gutmann on an interesting choice for a holiday picture pose ("Controversary erupts over student in terror garb," DP, 11/3/06). The body language certainly is telling; naivete meets duplicity (I'll let you determine which is which).
After surveying 150 students, it's obvious students aren't getting enough rest - make sleep a higher priority.
Student tested limits with costume, but criticism of president isn't warranted.
It's not often campaigns revolve around a single issue. But for Joe Roebuck, that should be the case. In the early morning hours of July 7, 2005, state legislators in Harrisburg slyly (or so they thought) passed an enormous pay raise for themselves. The bill increased the base-pay salaries 16 percent, from $69,647 to $81,050.
Democrats want you to vote this Tuesday entirely based on your opinion of President Bush. Mailing after mailing, TV ad after TV ad and speech after speech the Democrats have attempted to make every Republican candidate look like Bush's ally and therefore, according to them, an enemy of the people.
