Search no further! The audiophile-quality HD 650 Sennheisers will captivate you with their ability to convey the emotion in your music, while maintaining precise control and serving up detailed, lifelike sound. A refinement of their award-winning predecessor, the HD 600, these superlative headphones feature improved materials for even better performance. Superb driver design delivers high-definition sound The HD 650's drivers are hand-picked to ensure precise left/right matching, and have lightweight aluminum voice coils for superb accuracy and fast transient response. You'll experience wide, open sound with extended bass that complements everything from sweeping orchestral arrangements to high-impact movie soundtracks. The metal mesh on the back of the earcups leave them open to prevent unwanted vibrations from tainting the sound. The Kevlar-reinforced, oxygen-free copper cord ensures a clean signal transfer, and ends in a full-sized headphone jack — perfect for high-end audio components. High-quality craftsmanship The elliptically shaped earpads fit around the ear, and block out ambient noise so you can focus better on your music. The luxuriously padded headband and earcups makes these 'phones ideal for long hours of comfortable music listening. And they sport a titanium and silver finish that's stylish as well as durable.

Written By Daniel, San Antonio, TX on Sunday, August 17, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) After spending around 40 hours with these headphones I can safely say they're becoming my go-to for almost any type of listening. Their tone is very pleasing to listen to for hours on end and their design makes long listening sessions non fatiguing and effortless! Honestly I feel like I'm beating a dead horse with these compliments that have been said a million times. Just buy them! Pros: They've become incredibly comfortable after a few days of breaking in the cushions and clamping force. I've also noticed stringed instruments in particular have become incredibly lifelike with an almost palpable level of detail in addition other tones like drum hits having very lifelike decay. Cons: None yet! Was this review helpful? Yes | No "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Comfort Noise Reduction Sound Quality 5 out of 5 Excellent headphones Written By paulr, Media PA on Wednesday, May 07, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I had long wanted to purchase a pair of Sennheisers and eventually got the 598 and 600 but returned both of them. They just didn't excite me. The 650s, however, are terrific, even without an amp. I have no doubt they'll be even better with a headphone amp. I haven't listened for over an hour at a time, so I can't speak to long-term comfort, but generally speaking they are comfortable and well-made. They come with a 1/4 adaptorwhich is helpful. If you weren't impressed by the 598 or the 600, or simply want to upgrade, then I think the 650s are worth an audition. I can't say enough about Crutchfield as a source for equipement. They give you an adequate amount of time to really listen. Pros: Excellent imaging, soundstage, sufficient bass, compelling. Cons: A bit warm with some recordings, but never fatiguing. Was this review helpful? Yes | No "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Comfort Noise Reduction Sound Quality 4 out of 5 Just the start... Written By BayStater, Roxbury, NJ on Wednesday, February 12, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) The desire to maintain domestic tranquility motivated me to start listening to music through headphones more often. My 30+ year old AKG K240s have served me well but I thought it might be time to audition something new. Did a lot of research but was not able to find any nearby dealers to try them out so I was a bit concerned about ordering before hearing. However, I have not been disappointed. So impressed with the sound that I grabbed about 50 of my favorite CDs (from Steely Dan Aja to Chet Baker to Yo Yo Ma) and spent a long weekend enjoying them all over again. Pros: Quality product, great sound. I found the 650s to be comfortable over several hours of listening. Cons: Now I think I'm going to have to upgrade my CD player...and then a new integrated amp to take full advantage of the 650s. 3 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Comfort Noise Reduction Sound Quality 5 out of 5 Sennheiser HD 650 Written By HTM~TheGame, Canton, OH on Friday, September 27, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) The Sennheiser Hd650 headphones are easily the best headphones I have ever purchased. They have great sound, a great sound stage and an impressive frequency range. Right out of the box I was completely impressed with these. They are open back, which means you will not get any noise reduction or noise cancelling, so they are best to use in a quiet environment. This is by design. The open back design allows music to flow freely and not be reflected of closed-back headphones. For the price, these are easily superb headphones for entry into audiophile listening. Pros: Awesome sound, great frequency range, great sound stage Cons: The only con I can think of is that it seems the plastic headband and paint shipping. Although I have not experienced any of this, others have stated that it was an issue. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Comfort Noise Reduction Sound Quality 4 out of 5 Try before you buy Written By Neal, Minneapolis, MN on Friday, May 10, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I was on the fence between these HD 650s and the HD 598s. After trying both of them I settled on the 598s. Don't get me wrong the 650s are excellent headphones. They do sound slightly better (especially at very low frequencies), and seem to have a more rigid construction. But, the 598s were much lighter and significantly more comfortable for me, with only very very minor sacrifices in sound quality. For almost half the price, no less. Just a friendly reminder that as with any sort of audio equipment, if you can find a way to listen to something before you buy it, DO IT. The same headphones/ speakers will sound different to different people, and different headphones will have different sounds that may better suit your preferences. Also, with headphones, fit and feel are a big deal. I demo'd both headphones with various uncompressed musical stylings through my Onkyo TX-NR717 receiver. I did not try either of them on an ipod/mp3 player. Pros: Fantastic sound and construction, decent looks. Cons: Heavy, minor nuances in SQ not worth the price gap from the 598s (personal opinion). 8 out of 9 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Yes | No "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Comfort Noise Reduction Sound Quality 5 out of 5 Greatness! Written By MRE, Dallas, Tx. on Friday, October 12, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Wonderful headphones, very comfortable and build quality is superb. I have several older headphones including Klipsch and Koss and they dont compare to these at all. Paired with my nuforce dac it truly makes a world of difference to ones music library. I was at first hesitant spending this kind of money on a set of headphones, but after careful consideration,and a lot of reading reviews I decided to go for it, and cant be happier. Pros: SOUND, BUILD QUALITY , LOOKS AND COMFORT Cons: NONE 8 out of 8 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Comfort Noise Reduction Sound Quality 5 out of 5 Super! Written By Ted C, Marlton NJ on Friday, April 13, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Sennheiser has been known for making the best headphones...and this time they outdid themselves! The sound of these headphones is super. All the high and lows come through clearly. The bass is superb. The highs are crystal clear and miss are delicate and very realistic. I have owned Sennheiser headphones in the past and was always impressed by them, but these are superior to the best of the previous headphones. The sound is balanced and puts you right in the concert hall or the studio or wherever the recording was made. If there are any flaws in the recording they will be heard. Although the price may seem high to some, if you want the best in headphones - get the Sennheuser HD 650! Pros: Gorgeous and realistic soundstage. Superb highs, lows and midrange. Extremely comfortable. Cons: None so far. 13 out of 13 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 These Sennheiser HD 650's Are Great !!!!!! Written By RedSea, Chemung County, N.Y. on Thursday, March 22, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) These replaced my Bose AE2 phones. I purchased these and simultaneously bought the NuForce Icon HDP on 03-20-2012. They were pictured together with a review on page 17 of the latest Crutchfield catalog. They came by UPS in two days. First off they fit great. I have a large head and was worried about that. They make my I-Tunes coming from my H.P. Pavilion dv7t Quad Edition laptop sound incredible. In person, they look gorgeous too. Spending so much was a hard choice but a tremendous payoff. The NuForce makes an excellent difference from just plugging directly into the headphone jack, night and day actually. I researched forever it seemed, but it was absolutely worthwhile. No matter whether you listen directly from CD's, YouTube or ripped CD's you hear details and things you will not have heard before. All pros with no cons. Just pure quality from both products. They represent a SOUND INVESTMENT. Buy from Crutchfield though as they are less expensive with no tax or shipping fees. Also, their support in the past has been second to none in my humble opinion. Go for it. Pros: SEE REVIEW Cons: NONE 10 out of 10 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Washington, D.C., Summer Program
Each summer, approximately 20 students have the opportunity to take part in the Washington, D.C., Summer Program. Students work in substantive externships in D.C., accompanied by a high-quality academic program and a summer in the nation's capital. The externship lasts at least seven weeks and students work at least 20 hours per week, in conjunction with taking classes. Students are paired with a supervisor at their externship, and the supervisor ensures that at least 80 percent of the student's time is substantive work.
Professors Dakota Rudesill and Chris Walker are co-directors of the program. Professor Rudesill brings Washington experience as a visiting professor at Georgetown University Law Center, as a senior staff member for the U.S. Senate Budget Committee and U.S. Sen. Kent Conrad, on the Obama-Biden Presidential Transition Team, and in the Office of the Director of National Intelligence. Professor Walker has extensive experience working in the D.C. area, as he previously worked in D.C. at the U.S. Department of Justice, for a prominent litigation boutique, and as a law clerk to Justice Anthony M. Kennedy of the U.S. Supreme Court. Both professors combine their academic insight with real-life experiences to enhance students' learning experiences. Throughout the school year, Professors Rudesill and Walker meet with the students to identify externships that are a good fit with the students' interests and backgrounds and then assist in placing the students in those externships.
Students take a 2-credit course on The Ethics of Washington Lawyering, as well as a 3-credit externship seminar. In previous years, students have worked in major federal agencies and nonprofit groups that are often national leaders in their fields. Externships in the past few years have included the U.S. Department of Justice, the U.S. Department of Commerce, the U.S. Department of Education, the Securities and Exchange Commission, and the D.C. Office of the Attorney General. A year-by-year list of prior placements since 2003 is available under the Externships page.
Several trips have been included in past years, such as tours of the Capitol, CIA headquarters, the Federal Trade Commission, the U.S. Supreme Court, and White House. There are a number of social outings as well. Students speak highly of their time spent in D.C. and note the bonds they form with each other add to the value of the experience. For more information on the classes and field trips, visit the Summer Experience page.

I R at odds with the ASA distances for 3D Traditional shooters, 20 yards maximum....Maybe because I know some dang good stick bow and recurve shooters.
B.O. is one the finest recurve bow shooters I know. From the Traditional stake he has turned in scores rivaling those of Bow Hunter Free style! And he really loves Field.
S.S. and his son, TD. are also quite good. I talked them in to shooting one of the last IAA 3D Championships and they finished 2nd and 3rd.
Our club set stakes for Traditional shooters with a max of 35 yards on large target, Elk and Caribou and all of targets maybe as close as 15 yards and farther. I've seen large deer targets set to 30 yards.
2011 ASA State Championship. I was grouped with 2 Traditional shooters. Me with a 40 yard max and them with a 20 yard max, I suggested we forego the rotation order and shoot first and them rotate. Why walk up and walk back for me was my thinking. And beings it was also raining made for better going if we did.
20 yards Max! Lord! When I stood right behind them it seemed like we were right on top the target. Heck, a little more and I could reach out with my 30" Cartel Stab and touch the targets....Well, it seemed that way.
As a kid I can remember shooting squirrels from 20 yards with my Fred Bear 60" recurve, rated 40 pounds at 28" of draw. In some cases I thought 20 yards a piece of cake. I even lobbed some my fiberglass fishing arrow that far at some the huge carp in the nearby creek and I got my share.
And then I grew up with American Sportsman and there was Fred Bear shooting pheasants on the fly. We didn't have pheasants, but we had ducks on the creek. My first trying at flying ducks resulted in tail feathers and I got serious after that. I got a few and 20 yards was easily the distance if not more.
So, all you Traditional shooters speak up. What do you think max distance should be for 3D? Especially, for those who would shoot the upper ranks of 3D, State and National level.

Tried it, don't care for recurve. I'll stick to compounds. Not looking to get rich, just get my money back, or close to it. I have a little over $200 invested in the bow, 6 gold tip feather fletched arrows, Martin bow stringer, 3 new strings, also put a new rest on. Make me some offers.
a vintage 1960's Root Archery Range Master left handed 35
pound bow that is 66 inches long unstrung. The bow is in good clean shooting condition with no limb twist or defects.
The bow has white glass both sides with an evenly yellowed original shiny varnish finish. There are wood overlays on the
tip fronts and the tips are nice. The front of the upper limb is marked: ROOT.
The backside of the lower limb is marked: ROOT Range Master. Markings are in gold and are nice. The backside of the lower
limb is also marked: 66" G6218 35-# 28" X. There are no stress marks and the limbs look nice. The large woodwork of the
riser has nice looking wood. A decent original finish with a few minor dings to the finish. No holes in the bow.
There is a feather rest and an original old string that is stretched and will need replacing.
Good looking old bow and a good shooter

At Corning's Gorilla Glass testing labs, the glassmaker that fronts Apple's iPhone tried to show that rival sapphire crystal isn't all it's cracked up to be.
Dennis Kish now leads the search company's ultra-fast fiber Internet service as it expands to more US cities.
A door-to-door survey of residents in Kansas City suggest that as many as 50 percent of households in Google Fiber neighborhoods are signing up for the service, which could drive the company to expand further across the nation.
The mere promise of Google Fiber seems to be enough to send rivals scrambling to deliver ultrafast Internet service at a reasonable price. Just look at Austin, Texas.
As the 1-gigabit-per-second Internet service spreads to more US cities, it's said the tech giant is also looking at possible Wi-Fi connections.

INGLEWOOD, Calif. (January 15, 2013)—Eblouissante, Zenyatta's half-sister and a smashing debut winner last Nov. 16 at Betfair Hollywood Park, will make her first start as a 4-year-old in Thursday's seventh race at Santa Anita.
The 3-5 morning line favorite in the $58,000 optional claimer, Eblouissante will have four opponents in the race at 1 1/16 miles. Post time for the eight race card Thursday at Santa Anita is 1 p.m.. Track gates at Betfair Hollywood Park will open at 10:15 a.m. for simulcasts.
Trained by John Shirreffs for owner-breeder Eric Kronfeld, Eblouissante, who is by Bernardini and out of the productive Kris S. mare Vertigineux, won by 4 ¼ lengths in her initial try over Cushion Track, using the same come-from-behind style that propelled 2010 Horse of the Year Zenyatta to 19 wins in 20 starts.
Stabled at Betfair Hollywood Park, Eblouissante, who has earned $27,000, was scheduled to make her second appearance Dec. 15 at her home track, but was scratched when she nicked herself leaving the receiving barn about 30 minutes prior to the race.
From inside out, the field for Thursday's seventh: Double Ante, Joe Talamo rides, 120 pounds; Viva Carina, Edwin Maldonado, 122; Folk Dancer, Julien Leparoux, 120; Pink Blossom, Alonso Quinonez, 120 and Eblouissante, Corey Nakatani, 122.

The BMC Racing Team's focus on being prepared for the cobblestoned classics – particularly Paris-Roubaix – continued Sunday and Monday with equipment testing and reconnaissance of the course.
Hushovd 'Happy And Confident'
Former world road champion Thor Hushovd rode a combined total of more than 200 kilometers the two days to become more familiar and comfortable with his BMC and its Easton wheels, Continental tires and other key components. "For me, it was to find out what I need and what we can make better for this race," Hushovd said. "I'm really happy and confident with the tires, the pressure the wheels and the bike for the cobblestones." Hushovd counts among his four top 10 finishes at Paris-Roubaix a runner-up in 2010 and third place in 2009.
Timing Was Ideal
"It was clearly a productive couple of days for Thor and the team," said BMC Racing Team President Jim Ochowicz, who accompanied Hushovd on Sunday's session. "The selection of materials and the review of the course will both be a benefit to the team at this year's Paris-Roubaix." BMC Racing Team Directeur Sportif John Lelangue said the timing of the testing was ideal. "It's good to do it now in good weather conditions because it was dry and it's February so we have a little bit of time to fix everything and be confident about the materials," he said. "It was also good to see the roads we will do in reconnaissance on the Thursday and Friday before Paris-Roubaix."

The CDC NPIN Featured Partner resource offers HIV/AIDS, viral hepatitis, STD, and TB prevention-focused organizations a platform to showcase their services, programs, and materials. Our goal is to highlight the work of CDC's prevention partners and encourage partners to connect with each other to share information and strategies. Organizations are nominated by CDC or their peers, or are self-nominated. Those selected are featured on the NPIN Web site for the month.
Positive Impact's mission is to eliminate the risk of HIV transmission and empower those affected by HIV through culturally competent and inclusive prevention, education, mental health, and substance abuse treatment services. Positive Impact is a nonprofit, community-based organization incorporated in 1992. Its prevention services include HIV testing, STI screening, risk counseling, linkage to care, navigation and support services, and community outreach. It also offers behavioral health care, including mental health counseling, psychiatric services, and outpatient substance abuse treatment. In addition, Positive Impact provides trainings for community partners and clients, housing services, and mental health and prevention case management services.
CDC funds Positive Impact to provide prevention services and two behavioral interventions: CLEAR (Choosing Life: Empowerment! Action! Results!), a one-on-one intensive risk reduction counseling program; and Personalized Cognitive Counseling, an individual-level intervention targeting high-risk individuals.
Positive Impact has a documented history of addressing health disparities, especially among at-risk populations such as the homeless, men who have sex with men (MSM), racial and ethnic minority clients, sexual minority clients, high-risk women of color, and heterosexual minority men. The Georgia State Community Planning Group has identified the greatest-need populations in Georgia to be HIV-positive persons; black, Hispanic, and white MSM; and black heterosexual women. Positive Impact serves all of these core populations and works to minimize and eliminate disparities.
Positive Impact also offers housing assistance, intensive prevention case management, and HIV prevention counseling opportunities. Positive Impact offers all its services in one location for the convenience of clients and has plans to begin implementation of primary HIV care onsite to provide a complete continuum of co-located services for HIV-positive individuals.
The United Way recognized Positive Impact's commitment to cultural competency when it awarded the agency its Valuing Diversity Award in 2006. The agency facilitates an annual 2-day cultural diversity workshop for professionals in the community who service clients affected by HIV in some capacity.
Positive Impact focuses on risk behavior characteristics across a range of populations. The agency learned a significant lesson years ago through its prevention program—the target focus needs to be on the risk associated with HIV transmission and not on a generalized physical or demographic characteristic. In Positive Impact's model, for example, rather than targeting all young MSM of color, it only focuses on those young MSM of color who are engaging in unprotected anal sex or sharing works, thereby alleviating pressure on its limited financial and human resources while achieving a greater reach into the population that needs the risk reduction services.
Positive Impact's prevention program is marketed in the community as the MISTER Center. The MISTER Center houses the HIV testing program; the STI screening and treatment program; the health and wellness program, which provides linkage to HIV care, as well as client navigation and support services; and the risk counseling program. The programs focus on gay, bisexual, and other MSM, with one focusing specifically on racial and ethnic minority men.
The MISTER Center takes a sex-positive, risk-reduction approach to the work of lowering HIV transmission rates, grounded in sound theoretical principles that merge behavioral health and public health and utilize a strengths-based model. The sex-positive approach enables agency staff to address potential risk behaviors without judgment or making decisions on the client's behalf. The risk-reduction approach enables staff to effect staged behavior changes rather than an unrealistic expectation of total behavior change. The theoretical foundations utilized (primarily transtheoretical/stages of change and cognitive-behavioral), when combined with a client-centered strengths-based approach, meets the client at their present risk level and helps them make at least one step forward to safer behaviors. This leads Positive Impact to a better understanding of why clients make the choices (both healthy and not healthy) that they do.
Positive Impact's MISTER Center has provided no-cost rapid HIV testing in metropolitan Atlanta since 2008; during this time, the agency has provided testing both onsite as well as off-site at various venues. Positive Impact has created three unique service delivery elements during the past 5 years:
Positive Impact started in 2008 by testing several hundred individuals, with a 2% positive rate. Throughout the past 5 years, the agency has continued to expand services annually, including the number of clients served. During 2013, the MISTER Center staff conducted more than 4,600 HIV tests and identified 239 new cases of HIV (a 6.2% positivity rate). During that same time, the agency conducted 947 screens for syphilis, gonorrhea, and chlamydia, with 77 new cases of at least one STI identified (an 8% positivity rate). Positive Impact anticipates this trend will continue in 2014.
