Want the recipe for an evening of great entertainment? How about a double measure of country music; leaven it with a cool, bluesy jazz number and the melodic strains of original piano compositions; season it with a mix of Broadway, rock and a dash of heavy metal. Garnish the result with a bit of comedy and a splash of surprise.
The result is the Penn State Shenango Drama Club's Talent Show at 7:30 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 20, in the Penn State Auditorium on Shenango Avenue in downtown Sharon. (more)

The ASD prevalence rate--the number of individuals diagnosed with autism--has been steadily increasing over time. A new report from the U.S. Department of Health's Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), based on a phone survey of over 78,000 families, set the prevalence rate at nearly one in 91 children. This is an increase from the prior statistic of one in 150 children reported in 2007 by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) says The Medical Minute, a service of the Penn State Hershey Medical Center.
