Your letter asked us (1) for information regarding the planning activities of NASA staff after the President submitted his fiscal year 2011 budget request; (2) whether NASA complied with the provision in the Exploration appropriation which prohibits the use of the Exploration appropriation to “create or initiate a new program, project or activity;” (3) whether NASA has obligated Exploration appropriations in a manner consistent with the Impoundment Control Act; and (4) whether NASA complied with the provision in the Exploration appropriation which prohibits the use of the Exploration appropriation for “the termination or elimination of any program, project or activity of the architecture for the Constellation program.” We responded to your first two questions in a previous letter. B-319488, May 21, 2010. In that letter, we provided information on planning activities and determined that NASA had not violated the provision in the Exploration appropriation that bars NASA from using the Exploration appropriation to “create or initiate a new program, project or activity.” Id.

There’s another rivalry, however, that many students have never seen in their lifetimes: the Penn State series. The series hasn’t had a game since 1990, when Joe Paterno’s Nittany Lions beat Gene Stallings’ Tide 9-3. “It’s a game that I’ve had circled on my calendar for the past four or five years,” said senior quarterback Greg McElroy. “It’s a game you tell recruits about and it’s a game that I was aware of when I first got on cam- pus. It’s obviously one of those games; it’s kind of a showcase game. We always kept saying, ‘I hope Coach Paterno’s still coaching. It would be great to compete against him.’” Penn State does know how to win, espe- cially in Tuscaloosa, where they have a 2-1 edge over the Tide.
