Flyers advance past Devils

Thanks to goals by Alexei Zhamnov and Danny Markov, a pair of Russians acquired late in the regular season, the Philadelphia Flyers will play in the second round of the Stanley Cup playoffs. Zhamnov scored the opening goal and Markov added the game-winner on a long shot in the final period to lead the Flyers in a 3-1 victory over the defending Stanley Cup champion New Jersey Devils, eliminating them from the playoffs four games to one.

Good ol’ days

I know this sounds ridiculous, but I feel old. I think it started when Nick at Nite stopped showing "I Love Lucy" and "Bewitched" and began showing "Full House" and "Roseanne". Growing up, Danny Tanner was like a father to me. Where did all the time go?

Health Watch

Cigarette smoke contains 200 different poisons and 43 of them cause cancer. There is a known chemical in cigarettes called carcinogen that is extremely harmful, however it is ignored because it is in the form of tobacco.

Many people are familiar with Jazzman's employee Kathie Mininno, who stands behind the cash register with a constant smile on her face. It may, however, be surprising to some that Mininno's only daughter, Lisa Carnesie, graduated with an English/communications degree from Cabrini in 1998.

Dissed by teacher, another saves face

I never thought the day would come for a teacher to tell a student that they could not help them. This has been my past experience with a Cabrini teacher.

Main Line nightlife

The Wild Onion is one of the hot spots Cabrini students go to when they want to have a fun time. Great music, food and drink specials are all a college student is looking for and this place has all of that and more. Krista Stella, a senior psychology major, not only enjoys going there with her friends, she is also been an employee there for almost a year.

Communication is key

"Let's go white" was one of the many cheers filling the air on Tuesday, Oct. 14, when the women's field hockey team faced off against Wesley College. According to the majority of the team, strong communication skills are essential for positive play. Head coach Jackie Neary leads her team in the communication role.
