"Not to Be Sexist, But..."
Star Wars has a Facebook page. If you knew that already, you could be a Star Wars geek. But that's not important right now. One of the characters in the much-anticipated Star Wars: The Force Awakens is Captain Phasma, played by Gwendolyn Christie who also plays Brienne of Tarth on Game of Thrones. The Star Wars folks are having an art contest, inviting people to submit drawings of characters from the upcoming film. (function(d, s, id) { var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0]; if (d.getElementById(id)) return; js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id; js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_US/sdk.js#xfbml=1&version=v2.3"; fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk')); Feeling inspired by Phasma? Your Star Wars: The Force Awakens-inspired art could land you a spot in a professional art... Posted by Star Wars on Thursday, August 27, 2015 That's one artist's conception of Captain Phasma, and the reaction to it was pretty good. Until one guy - probably one of those internet trolls - posted a comment: "Not to be sexist, but it's really hard to tell that's female armor for me." First off, nothing good is ever followed by the phrase "not to be sexist, but..." Second, it's armor. Not designed to be curve-hugging. As the Star Wars pagemaster pointed out: "It's armor. On a woman. It doesn't have to look feminine." In order words, back off, Jack. Don't make me flick on my lightsaber!

Whale Watch Play-by-Play
This is some incredible footage taken from a show called Big Blue Live on BBC One's BBC Earth in England. Steve Backshall was interviewing a whale expert while on a whale watch when his helicopter camera crew let him know that a blue whale - the biggest animal on the planet - had been spotted nearby. This all happened live, and Steve got absolutely breathless with his play-by-play as the giant mammal sucked in lungsful of air prior to diving below the surface to feed for a bit. Amazing, really, in so many ways. Check it out... (function(d, s, id) { var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0]; if (d.getElementById(id)) return; js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id; js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_US/sdk.js#xfbml=1&version=v2.3"; fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk')); The moment we spotted a blue whale - LIVE! GROUNDBREAKING TV MOMENT! Steve Backshall is interrupted by a blue whale live on BBC One for BBC Big Blue Live. During an interview with whale expert Dorris Welch, Steve has to intervene and cut live to a BLUE WHALE! Posted by BBC Earth on Monday, August 31, 2015

Breakfast All McDay
McDonald's announced yesterday that it will be serving breakfast all day long. That's a nationwide move starting on October 6, following what must have been a successful test run in San Diego that started in the spring. McDonald's see the all-day breakfast as a way to goose slumping sales. Time will tell. Back when the test program began in San Diego, it was greeted with a bit of skepticism. Like from The Late Late Show's James Corden, who had this to say about it on April Fools Day...

The Name is Street... Too Street
Talk about poor choice of words. Anthony Horowitz, the guy currently in charge of writing new James Bond books, was on a promotional tour for his latest work, and the subject of Idris Elba came up. Idris, who's got a string of movie and TV credits, is thought to be a frontrunner to replace Daniel Craig as the next 007. Horowitz had this to say: "For me, Idris Elba is a bit too rough to play the part. It's not a colour issue. I think he is probably a bit too 'street' for Bond." Wow. For a writer, you'd think he'd choose his words a bit more carefully. The good news is, he did apologize, so there's that...

Nothing Ventured, Nothing Gained
A Marine named Jarrod Haschett posted a video to all sorts of social media a little over a year ago, hoping to get a date for the Marine Corps Ball in December. An even though it's the Air Force's motto, this Marine aimed high. He wanted to escort UFC fighter Ronda Rousey to the ball. The video got close to 5 million hits. And guess what? Ronda saw it, and said yes. All Jarrod has to do is find dates for Ronda's three girlfriends. I think Jarrod's "hoo-ahh!" could be heard around the country.

Ah, the White Knight After All
So Donald Trump took to Twitter yesterday to whine. Well, sort of. He wanted to let the world know that he felt "totally stupid" for "turning down millions of dollars" in campaign contributions. Really? That's what it takes to make him feel totally stupid? Good to know the bar's been set, anyway. I'm turning down millions of dollars of campaign contributions—feel totally stupid doing so, but hope it is appreciated by the voters. — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 1, 2015

Say It Ain't So - Please Say It Ain't So
A day after the Video Music Awards, during which Kanye West ran about ten minutes past his alloted two minutes, the folks at TMZ are reporting that MTV wants Kanye to host the show next year. Seriously? I mean, what did we do to deserve that, MTV? We've been good, haven't we? It's bad enough you wouldn't let the guys in the control room cut him off when he went over. It's bad enough one of your execs followed him to his dressing room to tell him how terrific he was. Now you want to put him in as host? Are you prepared for a weekend-long event, MTV? Cuz that's how this is shaping up!

Just a Little Harsh, Wouldn't You Say?
So it looks like Demi Lovato's performance at MTV's Video Music Awards on Sunday wasn't all that well received. She performed outside the theater on a stage set up on there, and the people inside the auditorium watched on monitors. Demi was wearing what's been described as "dominatrix-style" boots and a bedazzled dress. And when Iggy Azalea joined her on stage - well, things didn't get much better. One viewer at home had a pretty harsh tweet about it. Check it out... loving the demi and iggy performance! pic.twitter.com/0qWitxoxkC — nick. (@XXIPilots) August 31, 2015

Downton Abbey Wrapping Up
Are you ready for it, Downton Abbeyites? Your favorite series is wrapping up this season, which starts September 20. The folks at ITV released this trailer over the weekend. It feels a little sad, but a little uplifting too. Sort of like a rite of passage. What do you think?

Hotel California, Sin Musica
This video's several months old, but I just stumbled on it, and it's worth sharing. An a capella group called Cubanos Acapella performed the Eagles' classic, "Hotel California." No music, except the music created by the performers. Percussion, guitars and more, all created vocally. And it's perfection. Check it out.

"Like That Little Cage is Gonna Help Ya"
Those sharks keep on coming. Check out this video of a monster shark leaping out of the water. You can get a sense of its size from the shark cage's pontoons in the foreground. The best part is the look on the face of the Australian Today Show's anchor and his co-host. They're both completely dumbfounded, and vow never to go in the water again. Check it out. (function(d, s, id) { var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0]; if (d.getElementById(id)) return; js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id; js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_US/sdk.js#xfbml=1&version=v2.3"; fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk')); "I'm never going into the ocean again" - KarlWhat. was. that.#Today9 Posted by TODAY on Sunday, August 30, 2015

Hello Again, Denali
Just before leaving for a trip to Alaska, President Obama righted what many Native Americans see as a century old wrong. The name of America's highest peak, Mount McKinley in Alaska, has been changed back to its original name, Denali. In the native tongue, the word means "the high one." The story of how it became known as Mount McKinley - named after President William McKinley, who was only a candidate for the presidency at the time - is pretty funny. A gold prospector came ouf of the Alaskan wilderness, telling stories about the sights he'd seen, including this very high mountain. He decided that it should be named for McKinley, a Republican from Ohio who had never been and never would end up going to Alaska. Makes perfect sense, right? And that's it? Native American groups in Alaska have been fighting for the name change since Alaska became a state in 1959. Who says bureaucracies move slowly?

President Kanye?
Oh yes he did. At the VMA's last night, Kanye West announced - after a four-hour speech (okay, maybe it wasn't that long, but it sure felt like it was!) - that he was running for president in 2020. Sadly, he means President of the United States. He dropped the mic right after saying that and walked off stage to a cheering crowd. It's not clear whether they were cheering the announcement, or the fact that he was finally done talking. I'm thinking the latter...

Comments about Yeowww! Organic Catnip Fruit Cat Toys:
This is the favorite toy of all four of my cats - I have no idea why. I'm purchasing my third set, even though they last forever and cats don't get sick of them. I replace them eventually so that I get to look at fresh, clean ones, since they are always in sight!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Banana & lemon
By SWadowsky
from Houston, TX
The lemon and banana were a little bigger than I thought they would be. Otherwise my cats like them. I have 2 older cats and 1 younger cat. The younger cat will bat around the giant lemon and my older cat sleeps with the BIG banana. So all in all good catnip and toys. Plus love the yellow color it's very stimulating.
Cat's favorite toy
By Jody
from New York
I've been buying these for years, they are by far both of my cats favorite toy. When one is done playing they sit on it so the other can't get it. The material lasts forever but eventually the catnip erodes or flattens as one would expect after heavy use. I was so surprised that there are any negative reviews given how much my cats enjoy their bananas so I just had to write a review.
My cat's loves it !!!!

My cat loves the banana!! This is the best catnip toy I have ever gotten my cat.
Best Cat Toy Ever!
By Ash
from Wisconsin
I rescue cats and house a household of felines and Yeowww! pet toys are by far the best I have come across. I purchased my first one recently and all the cats went nuts, from my old guy to the little ones. I will be a frequent Yeowww! customer from now on after seeing how my cats responded to the banana.
Best cat toy ever!
By Jonty's mom
from Tampa FL
My main criticism is that it doesn't last very long with rough play. I wish they would use a denser fabric; this one is just too fragile. Not a cheap price; they could upgrade the material.
Best toy ever!
By shamrocks
from Hudson Valley, NY
Yeowww! catnip toys are the best I've ever bought. I wish I could remember who told me about them so I could thank them. I bought a couple of the fish for my cats (and have since gotten the banana, heart and cigar) and from the moment I brought them in the house, they were hooked. When friends with cats come to my house and see my cats playing with them, I usually send them home with one. I'm a cat-sitter and I give one to any clients who book me for a week or more...I inevitably get a phone call "Where did you buy that toy?!" I can honestly say I've never seen a cat turn it down. I was at a client's house last week and found a "well-loved" banana...it was filthy and flattened out. I threw it into the middle of the room and soon all 4 cats were trying to play with it.Bottom line, this is a great product. The fact that it's made in the USA is a bonus!
Daughter's cats loved it!

Have no complaints
By princessjudy4
from Sunny Arizona
The cats were so interested in the box this came in and couldn't wait to see what was in it. The two youngsters were unimpressed with the box contents (the banana) from the get go and the older cats were only interested in it that night. It's been untouched since. Such a let down.
Best Catnip Ever!
By jc4cats
from Cleveland, OH
I've used many catnip products before, but never have gotten the response that I get from Yeowww catnip toys. My cats (two are 16 years old and one is 5 years old) love Yeowww. The way my one 16 year old rolls around with the catnip banana is hysterical. I will not buy any other catnip product. Yeowww is great!

Shop all Headphones Need help? 1.888.955.6000 Email Chat Ask an expert advisor No pressure, no commission — just lots of good advice from our highly trained staff. Overview Reviews Details Accessories Staff Reviews Articles & Videos by David Brown AKG quality more affordable than ever If the AKG K 550 headphones have piqued your interest but not yet spurred a purchase, the time is right to strike. AKG now offers a factory-refurbished version of these popular audiophile headphones. They're backed by AKG's one-year warranty, offering performance and peace of mind. Closed-back headphones with a wide-open sound Most headphones with a sealed earcup design let you hear your music better in noisy environments, like at a club or in a busy office. But they can also bottle up the sound, making it feel as though it's coming from inside your head. Not the AKG K 550s. These advanced closed-back headphones deliver the spacious, realistic soundstage of an open-back design, while providing blissful relief from the outside world. And because they're sealed, you can enjoy truly private listening without sound leaking outside to those around you. Large drivers for outstanding performance AKG has been making high-quality headphones for music enthusiasts and professionals for over 60 years, and that experience really shows in the K 550s. They use big 50mm drivers, the largest in the AKG headphone lineup, to crank out powerful, crystal-clear sound from your hi-fi system or virtually any portable player. No matter what type of music you listen to, these 'phones will give you sparkling highs, engaging mids, and dynamic bass. Carefully designed inside and out The K 550 features a padded adjustable headband and ultra-soft around-the-ear earcups for a comfortable fit. The single-sided oxygen-free copper cable supports a clean signal from the source to your ears, and comes with a convertible headphone plug that works with both mini- and full-sized jacks. And its 2D-Axis earcup design folds flat for easier storage and transportation. From our review of the AKG K 500 headphones "The AKG K 550s are a good high-end headphone choice for less-than high-end listening situations. Although slightly warm, I felt I was getting all the musical detail my sound sources were delivering. And they were comfortable enough to wear all through the work day. And that's more than good enough for me!" — Ralph, Crutchfield Blog and Product Review Editor Product Highlights:around-the-ear, closed-back designlarge cushioned earcups and adjustable headbandlarge 50mm drivers for a realistic soundstage and powerful sound2D-Axis fold-flat design for easier storage and transportationfrequency response: 12-28,000 Hzimpedance: 32 ohmssensitivity: 114 dB9-foot single-sided cord with stereo mini plugcomes with full-sized 1/4" adapterweight: 13.3 oz.warranty: 1 yearOur 60-day money-back guarantee AKG K 550 (Factory Refurbished) Reviews Average Customer Review: 11 reviews Review this product Submit a review and then enter to win a $350 rewards card Filter by rating: 5 Star: (0) 4 Star: (0) 3 Star: (0) 2 Star: (0) 1 Star: (0) Review this product: Thanks for taking the time to share your experiences about this product.

"Coolness Factor" Build Quality Comfort Noise Reduction Sound Quality Great set of earphones. Comfortable with terrific sound. I purchased factory refurbs and I couldn"t be more pleased. Great product, great price. What is there to find fault with. Was this review helpful? Yes No Worth the sale price. Happy with purchase but not too impressed with s Written By wmf, Anchorage, Alaska on Wednesday, January 01, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Comfort Noise Reduction Sound Quality I've had Shure SE535's for five years that were the top of the line for that brand at the time. I thought the sound quality was fantastic. When spending a lot of money buying a high quality pair of headphones, I figured in-ear would be most versatile. Now I want to expand my methods of listening to music, and I had to decide whether or not I I consider myself an audiophile and if I really do value the benefits of spending tons of money on additional audio equipment. I decided yes I definitely do, and I eventually plan on getting the crème de la crème à la Edgar (Audeze) but that won't be for some time. Since the Audeze were going to be open headphones I thought I would look at closed headphones. Aesthetics are important to me, and that is the main reason why I checked these AKG K 550's out. They were over $300 when I first saw them, and while most of the reviews were positive, I thought it would have made better sense for me to put that money towards the Audeze's or really anything else. Then Crutchfield had refurbished pairs listed for $199 that kept going out of stock. I still didn't feel like jumping on them at that price and waited to see if any additional sales might come up, since black friday/cyber monday was around the corner. They were actually $169 a few days before then so I figured the price would get better but it didn't and I was disappointed. Then a few weeks later I checked again, saw they were $139 and bought them. (Ran out of characters, continued below) Pros: Looks, Comfort, Sale Price. The experience of purchasing from Crutchfield was fantastic and I would definitely do it again. They are much less "fatiguing" to listen to than my Shure SE535's. Cons: Sounds slightly "tinny". A little harsh on the ears at times and not very full, even compared to my five year old in-ear Shure SE535's. When listening to them, too often I'm thinking "this could sound a lot better", but that could be because I'm not using an amp, they are refurbished, and/or perhaps they need to be "broken in" as I've heard many headphones need to be. Was this review helpful? Yes No A true bargin Written By Scott B, Magalia CA on Saturday, December 21, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Comfort Noise Reduction Sound Quality Upgraded from 20 yr. old Sennheiser HD490 on ear phones, quite an improvement. These are a well built, great sounding set of headphones and with the refurbished price they can't be beat! Was this review helpful? Yes No A Step Up. Written By SEESERIES, Warner Robins. Georgia on Saturday, December 21, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Comfort Noise Reduction Sound Quality A huge step up in sound quality from my previous headphones. Great sound stage improvement as well. I like them. But you get what you pay for. Pros: Great Construction, Great Stereo Imaging Cons: You get what you pay for in terms of sound quality Was this review helpful? Yes No Not snug enough on the ears! Written By bt, Zionsville, IN on Wednesday, November 27, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) rating "Coolness Factor" rating Build Quality rating Comfort rating Noise Reduction rating Sound Quality This is my first pair of over-the-ear cans in this price range. I was super pleased with the quality of the sound. But, I've returned them due to the fact that these headphones don't fit snugly enough to 1) provide enough sound isolation, and 2) provide full bass extension. If I pushed lightly on each can, the overall sound quality was vastly improved. I guess I've got a narrow skull, because I had the headband adjusted to the "tightest" fit. Pros: Solid build quality, pleasing sound quality. Cons: Improper fit for me led to a compromised performance. Was this review helpful? Yes No Too bright for my taste. Written By Nandor, New York on Friday, September 20, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Comfort Noise Reduction Sound Quality I own a Beyerdynamic DT880 600ohms headphone which I like a lot. It is considered to be on the bright side in terms a of sound character so I'm used to listening bright sounding headphone. The AKG K 550 however is way too bright for my taste. It may be the right headphone if it used with a mellow sounding tube headphone amp or a dark or flat sounding portable mp3 player. Was this review helpful? Yes No AKG K 550 (Factory Refurbished) Written By JD, Cape Cod MA on Wednesday, September 04, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Comfort Noise Reduction Sound Quality A terrific value and great overall performance. On a warm day they were somewhat warm but nothing to complain about. The sound quality is excellent and the build quality is the best I have seen in the market. These are worth the purchase, particularly the refurbished ones. They have a very secure feel. The quality of these headphones leads me to try other AKG products. Pros: Build Quality, sound quality and value received. The cord length perfect and quality is exemplary. Cons: slightly warm Was this review helpful? Yes No Crazy Good Written By Tom J, Centennial, CO on Monday, May 20, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Comfort Noise Reduction Sound Quality I just got the AKG K 550s last week and was a little worried about the "Factory Refurbished" tag associated with them. I quickly laid that worry aside. These are absolutely incredible to say the least. The clean & natural sound, the quality of construction, the look, the fit and comfort on my large head all have left me with nothing but positive things to say. I spend a lot of time restoring and recording old vinyls to digital audio and needed good headphones that I could be comfortable wearing for long periods of time without annoying my wife or others with what I was listening to. These really fit the bill. They also sound great being powered just by my I-POD Classic...although I may invest in a portable headphone amp just for some added kick (they do quite well all by themselves. I'm just addicted to gadgets). Pros: Everything about them screams Comfort & Quality! Cons: I have not found anything that I don't like about them! Maybe someone with a smaller head might have fit problems. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Love These!! Written By C. Callinsky, Bristol, VA on Thursday, March 14, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Comfort Noise Reduction Sound Quality I've used many sets of headphones over the years. I've had some of the most expensive headphones available over my little ears. I am a music freak. I cannot get into all my wild adventures that pertain to my music adventures, but I will tell you that when it comes to audio quality I am not easily impressed. I really love these headphones. Pros: I love that they are not tight on my head. The fit is wonderful. When headphones are too tight they give me a headache. I like them snug but not tight. I love the low ohm because they sound great with things like Kindles/iPods. I was surprised with the reproduction of the low frequencies. They far surpassed my expectations. The clarity is outstanding. I have an above average home stereo system, but I've heard stuff in some of my music that I didn't know was there; I had never heard it before Cons: I'm a little worried about the Refurbish part of the deal. I just hope that I don't have any problems with them because it was a substantial deal of money for me...but I LOVE my music. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No 4.5 stars Written By Hoos4Headphones, Charlottesville, VA on Saturday, May 05, 2012 Very comfortable and easy to wear for extended periods. The seal is good, if not tight--but I attribute part of the comfort to it not being too tight. Plus, the phones can be swiveled for a better fit (a feature I really like in headphones), which I sometimes have to do when I put them on. Ear pads are very big in diameter. I have a big head but small ears, so these covered my ears with plenty of room to spare. The big pads can contribute to heat if you wear them for a while on a hot day, though. I wouldn't mind if the diameter of these was a little smaller, but if you have bigger ears maybe its a good thing. I also like the looks a lot; slick but understated; cool and safe at the same time. Sound is very good: clear across all ranges. Not as open as open back headphones, obviously, and that's my biggest complaint. Even for closed-back phones, I think they could sound more spacious. But I've been listening to these for very long stretches of time without getting tired of them. Pros: Style, comfort, sound quality Cons: Sound could be more open and spacious 6 out of 6 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No game changer Written By mmbeats, Charleston,wv on Sunday, March 18, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great sound stage. Could fit a bit more snug for better isolation. But the best thing is the ohm impedance that allows for low volt devices like smart phones and iPods to have awesome sound without headphone amp. Pros: Sound quality.32 ohms Cons: Loose fit for small heads. 4 out of 4 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Product reviews from the Crutchfield Labs Private listening and great sound meet in the AKG K 550 headphones Written by Woody Sherman, A/V Writer, on 4/2/2012 5:02:00 PM Ever since I started working at Crutchfield I've been on the lookout for headphones that met a certain profile. a) I work in a quiet area, so they can't leak sound. Otherwise I'd inflict my eclectic musical preferences on my co-workers. b) They should be comfortable for long-term listening. And c) they should have an extended, flat frequency response, with a slightly warm tilt. I don't know how much looking you've done for headphones. Apparently, what I was looking for is a rare item. Sealed headphones are not known for uncolored sound or fantastically even response. But the AKG K550's are an entirely different animal. I became curious about these gems after reading several strongly favorable reviews online from some respected headphone reviewers whose blogs I read regularly. I snagged myself a pair and checked them out. I haven't had them off much since. It took me about 5 minutes of listening to realize I had to buy a pair. One word of caution: getting the right seal is important with these headphones. That's not hard to do on my big noggin, but if your head has more demure dimensions than mine, you'll need to work with the nicely designed adjustments on the earcups to make sure that you're surrounding the ears with no gaps to the outside world. Then you'll hear all the remarkable bass, smooth midrange, and nice extended treble you've been looking for. Plus, you'll appreciate the luxurious comfort. I really like these headphones. I'm pretty sure you will too. What are the Labs? Sorry, the AKG K 550 (Factory Refurbished) is no longer available. Looking for a similar item? Shop all All Headphones Or, you can still...

Bill O'Reilly said on March 13 that "Our corporate taxes are already the highest in the world and there is no doubt that President Obama wants to raise them."
According to the CBO, corporate tax payments as a fraction of GDP are near the lowest (1.6 percent in 2012) that they have ever been in our history.
According to the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis ("FRED"), corporate profits as a fraction of GDP are the highest (11 percent) that they have ever been in our history. Annualized corporate profits in Q3 2012 were $1.776 trillion, twice the FY 2013 federal budget deficit of $845 billion.
Wages as a fraction of GDP are the lowest they have ever been.
The facts tell us that corporate taxes are the least burdensome that they have ever been. The Republicans tell us that corporate taxes are the most burdensome they have ever been.
The name of this phenomenon is "Irresponsible Anti-Tax Fanaticism."
The people who tell you that supply-side tax cuts pay for themselves, that deregulation creates prosperity and that free trade creates employment are telling you that corporate taxes must be cut.
One must ask, how can one believe these Republican leaders?

PUNXSUTAWNEY — Gov. Tom Corbett professed his early spring preferences just prior to Punxsutawney Phil's 126th annual prognostication early Thursday morning at Gobbler's Knob, but as history has shown, the Seer of Seer relies on nothing else except than his own instinct.
The result, as read by Vice President Mike Johnston: "As I look at the crowd of Gobbler's Knob, many shadows do I see; so six more weeks of winter it must be."
When asked if he was pleased with Punxsy Phil's prognostication, Corbett replied, "No. Now we've got to get PennDOT ready."
Veolia Greentree Landfill Manager Don Heinrichs was not able to attend Tuesday's meeting of the Elk County Solid Waste Authority, but Elk County Recycling/Solid Waste Coordinator Bekki Titchner provided a report on his behalf.
The Elk County Catholic Lady Crusaders picked up a 43-19 senior night victory over the visiting DuBois Area Lady Beavers on Wednesday evening at ECCHS.
Both teams started out slow in the first half, with ECC leading 7-6 at the end of the first period and 13-9 at the half.
"In the first half we shot 2-for-11 from the foul line and I think we were 4-for-20-something in the first half. You aren't going to put many points on the board shooting those percentages," said ECC coach Ken Pistner.
The St. Marys Area Flying Dutch basketball team dropped a 46-35 District 9 League game to the Bradford Owls last night at the SMAHS Dutch Oven.
The Dutchmen were limited to three points in the third period, while the Owls scored 13 to take a 29-18 lead into the fourth quarter. Bradford led 16-15 at the half.
"The three points in the third quarter was probably the most important aspect of the game that led to our defeat tonight," said St. Marys coach Mark Guido.
Being able to touch Abraham Lincoln's Bible used during presidential inaugurations or reading an authentic journal of a Civil War soldier were just two things St. Marys Area Middle School teacher Cherri Gigliotti never imagined were possible until she attended the Library of Congress Summer Teachers Institute.
As part of the five-day institute held in Washington, D.C. throughout the summer, participants are permitted an all-access pass to the Library of Congress' vast archives.
RIDGWAY - At Tuesday's meeting of the Elk County Solid Waste Authority, the authority reorganized for 2012. After the meeting began, the members immediately went into executive session to discuss personnel matters, with no official action taken.
Russ Braun was reappointed as chairman of the authority, Robin Dubler as vice-chair and John Moran as secretary. Jim DeVittorio will continue as the authority's solicitor.
PUNXSUTAWNEY — Despite being born in the Philadelphia area, Gov. Tom Corbett insists he is a western Pennsylvania man by heart who has observed Groundhog Day since he was a child.
"When I was young, we had only three TV stations, and one of them we couldn't get — not in North Hills," said Corbett, the second sitting Pennsylvania governor to attend Groundhog Day. "We always hope for more winter and snow so we could play outside."
While the logging industry has played a pivotal role in the Commonwealth's economic development and prosperity, with the housing market down and lumber prices falling local loggers like Shawn Sheeley of 4S Logging and Lumber, Inc. of Kersey have had to find additional ways of making ends meet.
The focus of Sheeley's business has shifted from lumber sales to more of the land-clearing services needed in a range of projects, from abandoned mine reclamation to natural gas well site construction.
Wilfred E. "Buck" Eckert Sr., 95, of 351 N. St. Marys St., St. Marys, and formerly of the Ridgway-Johnsonburg Road in Johnsonburg,
died peacefully on Tuesday evening, January 31, 2012, surrounded by his loving family.
He was born Jan. 10, 1917 in St. Marys, a son of the late Edward and Rose Brechtel Eckert. On Oct. 6, 1962 in Holy Rosary Church in Johnsonburg, he married Greta Dorio Eckert, who survives.
The St. Marys Area gymnastics squad closed out their home season with a 128.2-120 loss to the Altoona squad.
"Overall the meet went pretty well. I was pretty pleased with the girls' performances," said St. Marys coach Irene McCandless.

After news first broke of Paul Walker's death last night, there was an outpouring of condolences from across the world. Unusual for an actor, though, was the outpouring from the racing world. Racers from all walks stepped forth on Twitter to offer their thoughts.
The Porsche Carrera GT he was a passenger in was driven by Roger Rodas, his financial advisor and a racer in his own right. Rodas was also killed in the crash. He and Walker first met at the track when Walker noticed that Rodas was driving a Porsche 911 GT3 he had once owned himself. For his part, Rodas was already quite successful at racing, as noted by Autoweek:
Rodas, though, moved up through the ranks from Porsche-only series like the Pirelli Driver's Cup, where he won twice in 2012, into the Pirelli World Challenge, leading a two-car Ford Mustang Boss 302S team, sponsored by Always Evolving and charities that he and Walker supported. Rodas raced car number 52; his co-driver, in car 75, was Erik Davis, owner of Autotopia, a massive, near-legendary car collection in Los Angeles that supplies cars for movie and TV productions.
Both rookies in the series, Rodas finished 13 in GTS points, Davis 16th, despite missing the races in St. Petersburg and Lime Rock. Has Rodas competed in those races, he almost certainly would have been the series rookie of the year. Rodas' highest finish was fifth at Toronto, impressive since the GTS class has such veteran drivers as season champ Lawson Ashenbach, Jack Baldwin and Peter Cunningham.
Part of the reason Walker's death means so much to us here at Jalopnik is that he wasn't just some actor who had appeared in a few of the most important car movies of this generation, but he was a genuine enthusiast and racer himself.
That's also evidenced by the shocked outcry and and sadness from the motoring world:

Whatever the price ends up being, they need to make sure they balance being competitive with making money. I think they need to undercut their competition with price a bit to attract customers and build a solid base for their platform. Hopefully loyal upgrades will push up the initial sales and get this platform off to a great start!

Non-Hazardous Waste Management Hierarchy
Because no single waste management approach is suitable for managing all waste streams in all circumstances, EPA developed a hierarchy ranking the most environmentally sound strategies for municipal solid waste. The hierarchy places emphasis on reducing, reusing, and recycling the majority of wastes and demonstrates the key components of EPA's Sustainable Materials Management Program (SMM).
SMM is an effort to protect the environment and conserve resources for future generations through a systems approach that seeks to reduce materials use and their associated environmental impacts over their entire life cycles, starting with extraction of natural resources and product design and ending with decisions on recycling or final disposal.
Source Reduction and Reuse
Source reduction, also known as waste prevention, means reducing waste at the source. It can take many different forms, including reusing or donating items, buying in bulk, reducing packaging, redesigning products, and reducing toxicity. Source reduction also is important in manufacturing. Lightweighting of packaging, reuse, and remanufacturing are all becoming more popular business trends. Purchasing products that incorporate these features supports source reduction.
Source reduction can:
- Save natural resources;
- Conserve energy;
- Reduce pollution;
- Reduce the toxicity of our waste; and
- Save money for consumers and businesses alike.
Recycling is a series of activities that includes the collection of used, reused, or unused items that would otherwise be considered waste; sorting and processing the recyclable products into raw materials; and remanufacturing the recycled raw materials into new products. Consumers provide the last link in recycling by purchasing products made from recycled content. Recycling also can include composting of food scraps, yard trimmings, and other organic materials.
Recycling prevents the emission of many greenhouse gases and water pollutants, saves energy, supplies valuable raw materials to industry, creates jobs, stimulates the development of greener technologies, conserves resources for our children's future, and reduces the need for new landfills and combustors.
Energy Recovery
Energy recovery from waste is the conversion of non-recyclable waste materials into useable heat, electricity, or fuel through a variety of processes, including combustion, gasification, pyrolization, anaerobic digestion, and landfill gas (LFG) recovery. This process is often called waste-to-energy (WTE).
Treatment and Disposal
Landfills are the most common form of waste disposal and are an important component of an integrated waste management system. Landfills that accept municipal solid waste are primarily regulated by state, tribal, and local governments. EPA, however, has established national standards these landfills must meet in order to stay open. The federal landfill regulations have eliminated the open dumps of the past. Todays landfills must meet stringent design, operation, and closure requirements. Methane gas, a byproduct of decomposing waste, can be collected and used as fuel to generate electricity. After a landfill is capped, the land may be used for recreation sites such as parks, golf courses, and ski slopes.

HEAD World Cup Rebel, Ted Ligety, carved out a lead on the first run in Soelden and then held on to take his third win in a row at Soelden. Not even the strong wind at the top of the Rettenbach Glacier was able put him off as he lead four HEAD World Cup Rebels into the top ten finishers. Aksel Lund Svindal produced a stunning fight back on the second run to take joint fourth with the second fastest second run time. HEAD new boy Cyprien Richard placed eighth with Mathieu Faivre in ninth. Alexis Pinturault took second and Marcel Hirscher third.
Ligety admitted to being a little nervous coming into Soelden, as he did not quite feel 'dialed in' to his skis until a few days before the race. Yet come race day, Ligety was ready and while he likes the hill for the fact he does not need to think about tactics due to its consistency, this allowed him to charge.
From start number three on a smooth course, Ligety showed the rest a clean pair of heels and the coped well with the bumps and dark light that he had to encounter for the second run.
For Svindal, he was pleased with his performance as it showed he was on schedule for the season. "The three leading guys are the ones to beat," he explained, "and I am not far behind them. I had a good day and can take the fight to them."
Making his debut for HEAD was Cyprien Richard and the Frenchman was really pleased with the work that had gone on by the HEAD technicians to ensure that his kit was ready for him: "It is a very good beginning," he explained.
Mathieu Faivre was delighted with his second top ten result in the World Cup, his best place of his career.
Soelden also saw the return to the World Cup of Bode Miller. Miller did not disappoint his legions of fans and placed 13th after the first run before dropping to 19th after the second. The conditions had not been ideal on his second run with the wind rising across the lower flat section yet Miller was still satisfied with his first race on the World Cup since February 18, 2012.
Talking after the race, Rainer Salzgeber, HEAD World Cup Rebels Race Manager, grinned as he described how the day had gone: "Not bad, not bad at all!"
The World Cup is back and so too is Mr. GS, Ted Ligety!

Discover why choice is your key to surviving trouble in paradise on PlayStation 3.
The first question Mark Thompson, level design director at Ubisoft Montreal, asks himself when embarking on a new project is: "What do players expect from my game?" In the case of Far Cry 3, the PS3 adventure set in a lawless tropical hideaway currently in production at the Canadian studio, it's Thompson's job to make sure his team understands the high hopes of fans.
"We know that the game has to be beautiful," Thompson says. "Far Cry is known as a brand that has always been incredibly attractive." Yet this is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to crafting a game to fill the Far Cry fan base with enthusiasm, and Ubisoft is striving to balance the demands of gamers with the ambition of the development team.
Without borders
"Far Cry 2 looked incredible even though it was an open-world game, and most open worlds sacrifice the visual fidelity," muses Thompson. "But for us that's just the cost of making a Far Cry game. It's the cost of making a shooter game as well. People expect a certain visual quality, and we don't want to reduce that just because it's an open-world experience."
The words "open" and "world" are key when it comes to distilling the real qualities of Far Cry 3. Ubisoft is piling a lot of effort into creating a sumptuous environment that lures players in completely.
Player power
Game designer Andrea Zanini agrees. "Far Cry is a shooter. It's always been a shooter. It's always been about the player's choices in an open world, and with Far Cry 3 we really wanted to drive that through to players and give them a sense that this is a breed apart." Noble aims, more than supported by watching the game in action, and it's easy to see what Thompson means when he says "the island is the main character". It's a clever solution to the problem every open-world game designer has to face.
"We like to think that we're smart, but we're not as clever as we need to be," Zanini explains. "I can walk past someone's desk, see him playing and think, 'Oh wow! I didn't think anyone would ever try that.' The only thing we know they'll definitely do is the objective. So when we design a mission we pick a single objective and then we build out from there. We try to support the players and think about their expectations in a given situation. We always have to answer those questions."
Park and ride
So it's the visual appeal along with the freedom of Far Cry 3 that will make this game a unique experience, not to mention the fun you'll have travelling around an island paradise. The huge fleet of vehicles alone will offer endless hours of action-filled frenzy. The team are careful not to spoil any surprises, although Thompson couldn't resist offering a tiny glimpse.
"We're going to give you a wide array of air, ground and water vehicles. Everything from boats and jet skis to trucks and buggies. The glider's included too and there are a few others which I can't mention just yet. They are part of your arsenal and you decide how to use them. Sometimes you can lose them as a result, and that is your choice."
Undeniably, the easiest decision you'll have to make concerning Far Cry 3 is electing to play it when it launches in 2012. Make sure you keep an eye on eu.playstation.com and PlayStation.Blog at blog.eu.playstation.com for more updates from the tropics.

GOOD Ideas for Cities / Challenges 3 and 4March 6th, 2012
Check out the next two challenges:
3. Have an animated conversation with a young transplant or multi-generational loyalist and you will understand the passion people here have for St. Louis. But, too often, the message falls back on empty boosterism. Whatever the cause, we must understand it, admit it and fix it. How do we deepen the pool of diverse people who love St. Louis and are personally invested in its progress?
Jeff Rainford, Office of the Mayor Francis Slay and Hank Webber,Washington University
Brain Drain: Matt Strom, Tara Pham, Logan Alexander, Noah MacMillan, Zoë Scharf, Amanda Yates, Andrew Warshauer, Kuan Butts, Danielle Wallis, Christine Stavridis, Bennett Gale
4. Located in the heartland, St. Louis has unique resources that could allow it to become a leader in urban agriculture. Yet most of the food consumed in the region is produced hundreds or thousands of miles away, and many urban areas of St. Louis have limited access to fresh food. How can St. Louis use our resources and stakeholders to increase accessibility of healthy, locally grown food?
