of a beautiful apple, tasting the luscious flesh of a flavorful fruit that resembles drinking fresh cider, the refreshing crunch that is capable of turning any “unhealthy” day of gloom into one full of energy, and the feeling of content that accompanies a first-class apple is lacking in the produce sold at convenience stores across Penn State’s campus. Unfortunately, the tempting basket of “red deliciousness” that occupies the check-out counter consists of unsatisfying, sub-par apples. From the…

the norm in the United States and many other parts of the world. At the start of this semester I did not think having a lot of one single crop was a bad idea. Having a few types of delicious apples and the same bananas at the store every day made me feel comfortable. I knew exactly what I was getting every time I went to the store.

Introduction: An invasive beetle—The Polyphagous Shot Hole Borer (PSHB)—is the factor that causes a serious disease in trees called Fusarium Dieback (FD). PSHB is a native Southeast Asia adult female beetle that carries…

That’s one of the craziest and laziest statement I’ve ever heard. Exercising will not make you look less attractive nor will it cause you to lose your curves. I know plenty of thick women who exercise and still maintain their curvy physique. So ladies, don’t worry about getting your curvy card revoked. Besides, being healthy and exercising will prolong your life…

observation light, amongst other fruits in my fruit basket, was a large Fuji apple. The stem was still intact, but cut very short. The skin was so glossy I had to move it into a dimmer area to observe its natural beauty and imperfections. I removed the apple from the fruit basket and placed it on my living-room table and began to observe it more. Its complexion was wrapped in red with yellow-green ty dye skin. The DNA of this apple must have had a dominate genetic trait for freckles, because…

How to bake an Apple Crisp “An apple a day keeps the doctors away!” The apple’s ability to detoxify that Russian doctors made irradiated children from Chernabyl eat apples.

Apple Crisp is my favorite…

that famous saying, “An apple a day keeps the doctor away,” but have many of us considered why apples? Why not a banana a day or a kiwi a day?
