As we head into the beginning of the holiday season, one Chicago business is gearing up for one of its busiest times ever - and it has nothing to do with shopping.
The man who launched Chicago's Finest Tours said he left corporate America to follow his dream. What happened next, is a labor of love.
Every day of the year, Dan O'Connell is doing what he loves most: Sharing his love of Chicago with others.
"There's so much more dimension and texture to the city other than the architecture," he said. "But you know who is most surprised by the gem that we provide them? The people who have lived here all their lives. My favorite expression is when two people look at each other on our tours and say, did you know that?"
O'Connell recently took a tour group through a Japanese garden in the heart of the South Side, not far from the Museum of Science and Industry.
One walking tour in 2010 has now blossomed to 14 different riverwalk tours and bus tours with summer and winter seasons. He also has themed tours for eras, holidays and disasters.
O'Connell never imagined it would grow so fast after leaving corporate America at a time when America was in a deep recession, and he had to be smart about advertising costs.
"I'm almost ashamed to admit it," he said. "But during the first couple of months when I tried to do this on my own, I had less than 100 guests. Not a very proud result."
In O'Connell's case he was one man with this vision of a tour business that flourishes much like the one he offers now. But at the time he didn't have the kind of budget he has now, to market his service. How did he get the word out? Chicago-based daily deal/coupon company, Groupon.
"There are so many choices for consumers these days, and there's so much advertising out there: Commercials and radio, everything. It just gets really confusing," a Groupon representative said. "It's the passion, the smarts, the business plan. What he lacked, was customers."
But not anymore!
"My advice to people now, over 50, who are looking to do something?" O'Connell asked. "Make sure it's something you feel great passion for - something you really want to do."

Scientists have figured out a way tomanufacture candy that's just as sweet as ever, but doesn't give you cavities.
German scientists are quick to point out that's it's still candy - it'll pack on the pounds and give you a sugar rush, it just won't rot your teeth.
It turns out it's a bacteria in our candy that causes our teeth to form cavities and not the sugar in our sweets (the bacteria is called Streptococcus mutans) .
By removing the bacteria from the candy, we're able to keep the sweet taste without the damange to our chompers.

I still reckon I have one of the biggest dic--I mean desks around here. I'll admit it's not as stylish as Yohassakura's one, what with all those little steps/tiers <3
Also do you have speakers? I can't spot any in that photo. Or do you stick to your Fatality?
I remember my #1 gripe with those slide-out desk things that come with most "PC" desks - the fact there's almost no room for the mouse left if you're using a large keyboard. For example, my mousepad measures something like 35cmx25cm wouldn't have the vaguest chance of fitting there :P
Overall great build and tidy setup
I remember back when CD racks were all the rage and the goal was to have towers of CD's arranged in beautiful shelves (mostly music albums :P).
Not the sleeve color I'll be using, but I think it demonstrates quite nicely what the overall look will be for sleeves once they're on.

This might be closer to what you'll see in the end. I'm not entirely quite sure what color combo to go yet...

For using as a raw topping, I slice onions in rings, thin enough so they will be partially cooked but still have a slight toothiness when done. If I'm caramelizing them, then I use thick rings so they don't cook down to mush. I either cut bell pepper into long very thin strips or into slightly smaller than 1/4 inch square chunks, depending on what else I'm topping with. I like thin strips in a sparsely topped pizza, and chunks in a heartier pie.
I run them through a slicer...http://www.amazon.com/EdgeCraft-610-Choice-Premium-Electric/dp/B0002AKCOC/?tag=pizzamaking-20
Dangit Bob, just when I thought I had all the toys ;-).
My wife and I are fans of NCIS and in one episode they ordered a pepperoni and onion pie, so we figured "why not give it a try". It has now become one of our standard go to pizza's!tom

While La Salle school officials and investigators look into how Monday's tragic incident may have been prevented, they will also review their own response and how they handled the situation in the minutes and hours that followed.
The incident happened at 9:07 a.m. Monday during an honors-level leadership class.
The entire school was put on lockdown as police were sent to the school and dispatchers gathered what they could from multiple callers inside the building.
"If you can just get the word to them that we need them to make a broadcast 'everyone remain in their rooms,'" a 911 dispatcher can be heard asking a teacher.
"I will do that," the teacher responded in the 911 call.
Another school employee's phone conversation captured the critical moments as administrators began putting their safety plan in place and police arrived at the school.
"He came flying in here and he said 'Lockdown call 911 right now' and he got on the PA and said 'Everyone we're on lockdown at this moment,'" the caller told the dispatcher.
"The safety plan was followed today. When the shooting took place students were immediately locked down and 911 was immediately called," Dr. Jim Rigg, Superintendent of the Archdiocese of Cincinnati, told reporters.
The school's safety plan was reviewed by Green Township police in December and updated with the Ohio Attorney General's office in February.
"Every school is required to file the same type of report and have a safety plan and LaSalle did," Attorney General Mike DeWine told FOX19.
At around 10 a.m. parents were notified by email.
"Our number one priority was the safety of the students in the building and until that had occurred we are not going to move to communication," Director of Community Development Greg Tankersley said Monday afternoon.
While the initial response phase moved quickly, the investigation will take time.
"We do not know how he brought the gun in at this time," said Green Township Police Chief Bart West.
Hamilton County Sheriff Jim Neil called in the explosive detection K9 teams to sweep the school Monday as a precaution although Green Township police emphasized they believe this was an isolated incident and do not anticipate recovering any weapons.
They do not have metal detectors at La Salle, but school officials say students do have to keep their backpacks in their lockers during the day.
The school says Green Township officers usually walk through the school during the school day and say they will have extra officers on the property on Tuesday.

Man rescued from Dunkin' Donuts Dumpster after falling in while looking for wife's dentures

Bankruptcy judge approves sale of YMCA properties
U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Susan V. Kelley on Tuesday approved the sale of four suburban YMCA properties for a total of $9 million, marking an important step in the efforts to downsize and restructure the organization that has been mired in debt.
"This was a huge hurdle today for the mission of the Y, which will be stronger in the region," Julie Tolan, the president and CEO of the Milwaukee Y, said after the hearing. It will also allow the Milwaukee Y to begin to move forward to focus on its future as a smaller, urban YMCA, she said.
The YMCA of Metropolitan Milwaukee filed for bankruptcy protection in June, faced with $29 million in debt that threatened to sink the organization.
Under the court-approved sale, the YMCA of Central Waukesha County will purchase the Southwest Y in Greenfield, the Tri-County Y in Menomonee Falls and the West Suburban Y in Wauwatosa for $7 million in cash, with a possible $1 million more based on earnings in the next two years.
The Kettle Moraine YMCA will buy the Feith Family Ozaukee YMCA for $2 million in cash at closing. The closings are tentatively scheduled for Oct. 15.» Read Full Article
Chinese restaurant owner brings new life to Waukesha shopping center
Five years ago or so, Paul Moy probably questioned whether he would have cause to celebrate his restaurant's home.
But through hard work and a big financial commitment from Moy, the once-beaten down Gray Terrace Shopping Centre has been revitalized.
Moy, the owner of the since-renamed Golden Gate Centre — a name that comes from his Chinese restaurant's Golden Gate — will hold a celebration on Saturday afternoon, Oct. 4, to recognize the three new stores that have been added to the center.
"We brought it back to life," Moy said.

Former sheriff's lieutenant gets jail time, probation
City of Waukesha — Former Waukesha County Sheriff's lieutenant Sarah Massa was sentenced to two years probation after pleading guilty to misdemeanor theft and obstructing an officer charges.
Massa, 37, was accused in March of stealing pain medication from her dying grandmother. She and her husband Chris, who also worked for the sheriff's department, resigned shortly after the investigation into Sarah began.
Judge Michael O. Bohren on Monday, Sept. 29, stayed a sentence of nine months prison time for Massa, imposing instead the two-year probation term. Massa would have to serve her jail time if she's accused of another crime while on probation.
Bohren did however remand Massa to the county jail for 30 days as a term of her probation. She was led away in handcuffs immediately after the trial concluded.
Both Massa's attorney, Matthew Huppertz, and Waukesha County District Attorney Brad Schimel — who worked with Massa on a number of cases — advocated for lesser punishments.» Read Full Article

Waukesha Slender Man stabbing victim will be introduced to the world tonight on 20/20
For four months, the identity of the 12-year-old Slender Man stabbing victim has been kept private.
But tonight, in an exclusive interview with ABC World News Tonight anchor David Muir, her family will introduce her to the world during the one-hour season premiere of 20/20.
The telecast, titled "Out of the Woods," begins at 9 p.m. Friday on ABC.
The girl's parents will speak about the stabbing, which has received national and international attention after the two suspects in the case - two 12-year-old girls - told police that they had plotted for months to kill their friend to prove themselves worthy to a fictional Internet horror character named Slender Man.
"Our family continues our journey of healing," her parents said in a statement. "By allowing us to introduce our little girl, and not by a media outlet, means a great deal to us. For that we are so very thankful to you all."» Read Full Article

Proposed Waukesha County budget keeps property taxes flat
2015 budget proposed by County Executive Dan Vrakas.Total Waukesha County government spending in 2015 would drop $3 million from this year, to $279.1 million, under a
The county's general property tax levy needed to pay more than one-third of projected expenditures would increase slightly less than 1% to $100.49 million for 2015, up $987,100 from the county levy this year, according to budget documents.
Since property values rose about 3% countywide as of Jan. 1 this year, county government can cut its tax rate to generate the higher levy for 2015.
The proposed rate drops seven cents to $2.08 per $1,000 of equalized value. Most homeowners will see no change in the county's portion of their December tax bill.
Though the median home value rose to $246,300 as of Jan. 1, up $7,400, the owner of that home would pay $512 for the county portion of the 2015 tax bill, the same amount as this year. The tax bill impact on specific properties will vary depending on local assessments and changes in property values.» Read Full Article

Authorities search for man in Waukesha County
Authorities are searching for a man wanted on several warrants who was last seen Tuesday morning in Waukesha County.
Donald Berry, 43, was stopped by a Waukesha County sheriff's deputy responding to a call of a man walking on Interstate 43 near Big Bend at 5:46 p.m. Monday, according to the sheriff's department. Berry gave a false name to the deputy and fled on foot north on I-43, officials said.
At 8:30 a.m. Tuesday the sheriff's department was notified of a man fitting Berry's description running north on Townline Road near Guthrie Road in the Town of Waukesha. Authorities used two police dogs, the Wisconsin State Patrol's aviation unit and officers from New Berlin, Big Bend and the sheriff's department. Despite five hours of searching numerous homes, barns, sheds and fields, Berry was not found.
Berry has a history of violence, including aggravated assault, aggravated battery, armed robbery and home invasion. He's wanted on a Rockford, Ill., police warrant for assault, parole violation in Springfield, Ill., and obstructing an officer in Waukesha County.
Berry has relatives in New Berlin and Waukesha, and authorities believe he may try to get in touch with them.» Read Full Article
Walter Kolb remembered as "dean of Waukesha County Board"
Walter Kolb, who served for 22 years on the Waukesha County Board, brought a business sense to every matter taken up by the board, Waukesha County Executive Dan Vrakas said.
Kolb died Monday following heart valve replacement surgery at Aurora St. Luke's Medical Center in Milwaukee. He was 73.
"We're all very saddened today by the passing of Walter," Vrakas said. "He was the dean of the county board.
"He always would relate how the operations of the county would be done if it were a business -- if it was reflective of good solid business principles," Vrakas added. "He was always that kind of voice - a good conservative business voice."
Kolb was in a position to know. He founded Audio Implements, a division of Wisconsin Ear Mold. The division was a pioneer in making the molded earpieces used by broadcasters nationwide. It was an outgrowth of his business of making hearing aid molds, said his wife, Anita. It started when a traffic reporter for WTMJ radio asked for Kolb's help in making an earpiece that would block helicopter noise - and stay in his ear - during traffic reports, Kolb's wife said.» Read Full Article
Walter Kolb dedicated life to Waukesha County politics
Walter Kolb spent 22 years on the Waukesha County Board and helped make many decisions for the direction of the county.
But his wife, Anita, said his proudest moment came this year and didn't have anything to do with a county board vote. It was when Walter's son, Robert, was sworn in to the county board.
"He was so proud," said Anita, who was there taking pictures of the two. "His heart was about to pop out of his chest, because he was so excited for Robert."
The two Kolbs served on the board together for five months.
Walter Kolb, 73, of the town of Waukesha, died on Monday, Sept. 22, with his family by his side at St. Luke's Medical Center in Milwaukee.» Read Full Article

Released by the City of Tyler:
Saturday's 26th
Annual Festival on the Square concert has been canceled due to wet conditions.
The decision to cancel was made at approximately 5 p.m. on Saturday.
volunteers started setting up the event last night and continued very early
this morning into the late afternoon," said City of Tyler Main Street
Department Leader Beverly Abell. "But the standing water became a major safety
issue for our sound, lights, stage and band people. Rain and electronics just
do not mix, and we were not about to jeopardize anyone's safety."
The concert,
which is a major fundraiser for the Main Street Department, was to feature a
line-up of four bands, including headliner Cody Canada and The Departed.
Abell said
those who purchased advance tickets may get refunds from 10 a.m. Tuesday to 5
p.m. Friday at Gallery Main Street, 110 W. Erwin St.
"This is a
major blow for us," Abell said. "Certainly our department will feel the impact
of the lost funding, but moreover, I hate that our hard-working volunteers
couldn't see the fruit of their labors. They put in an incredible amount of
hours and effort, and we appreciate them so much."
Abell also
commended FOS sponsors GG Distributing, R&K Distributors, Coors of
Longview, TEDC, Piney Woods Live, Brookshire's, Coca-Cola and Jason Woodward Photography.
sponsors support us year in and year out, and we couldn't bring these events to
the public without them," Abell said. "We hope that those who appreciate live
music and downtown revitalization will reach out and thank these groups."

Titan - Rasta/Black/Chrome w/Mic1
May 23rd, 2014
I've had my titans for years still work they have been threw the washer multiple times I got them ever sense they came out and also have hesh head phones the original listening to them right now and still work durable and comfortable only complaint is cable wire has ripped but due to use and abuse
BOTTOM LINE YES, I recommend this product
May 7th, 2014
I bought these to replace my Full Metal Jackets. These headphones are solid and the cord is nice, but every tiny bump or touch to the cord relays to your ears. They are really annoying to use when you're moving around because you can hear these headphones rubbing against your clothing through the earbuds. The sound is good, but I can only use these when I'm not moving. Also, they do have a phone control button on the cord, but it only pauses/plays. There is no volume control.
Great Ear Buds

Never letting these headphones go
January 25th, 2014
When I first put these headphones up my audiophile ears, I can suddenly feel my brain having a strong reaction from the bass of the song. There's minor problems with the headphones like the metal carrying case and feeling uncomfortable in the ear for a while. Otherwise, these are still good headphones.
BOTTOM LINE YES, I recommend this product
One of the Best

Short and simple: Great Highs, Mids and Bass. One of THE Best earbuds for the price on the planet. You really can't beat them.
BOTTOM LINE YES, I recommend this product
December 8th, 2013
I loved these buds, going through 3 pairs before moving on. They have nice bass which I love for hip-hop/rap, and the other sounds are pretty clear. The mic works alright, sometimes the other caller couldn't hear me and I unplugged it but most can. They're pretty durable headphones, The first I lost after a year and a half "still working like new". Second ones same thing but after 6 months, and 3rd the right side shorted. One thing I don't like is the wire noise. If you have both in and you're walking, the wire makes like a "bouncy" noise that you can hear. All around, I recommend these to people who like nice sound, durability, and if you don't move around a lot with both buds in.
BOTTOM LINE YES, I recommend this product
December 6th, 2013
Well at first I wasn't to happy with these, they didn't sound as good as my FMJ's but after some break-in the harshness in the upper midrange settled down and they really started to sound amazing. Another thing I found is the point at which they tuned the driver was too high, so with some minor mods I was able to bring down the Q of driver and now there the best sounding buds I've ever owned!!!!!!!

Sounds Great but Mic does not work with my Iphone 5c
November 29th, 2013
I have been with skullcandy for about 3 years now and i love the sound but i was disappointed with these. The mic does not work with my iphone 5c right from when i opened the package. It is a manufacturer defect so i will be returning these,(AWESOME WARRANTY!) but i hate having to pay for shipping since I live in Canada. Ya let me down skullcandy :(

November 14th, 2013
The TITANs are a must-have for anyone who wants an excellent, well priced pair of earphones. When I first received these, I tried them out and was immediately impressed by the sound quality with both the highs and the lows.
BOTTOM LINE YES, I recommend this product
October 20th, 2013
I had this to replace my 2011 FMJ In Ear due to a manufacturing defect. Comparing with the FMJ, Titan is outclassed in almost every way, such as packaging, craftsmanship, tone quality... Also, when I received the product, I found that the line had already been aging and felt inflexible. I know that two products may not at the same level, whereas considering the similar appearance, I supposed FMJ as the predecessor of Titan, and wished the product should have been improved but not fell behind. Well, the warranty is really good, so there is no worries about how long it will work. I really like the brand, and hope it gets better, especially making some better ear buds.
Best Earphones I've had
September 23rd, 2013
I bought these a long time ago and I hate trying new things but I was so glad I went for it with these, one of the best purchases I've made. Very comfortable, never fell out, and most importantly, loud, awesome sound! I put them through everything and they really held up for a long time. They finally did break down, which was really sad for me but they had a longer life than I should have any reason to expect, and I will be buying them again for sure! Amazing quality, even better with the price!

Live and Breathe by Skullcandy
September 20th, 2013
For years now I have lived and breathed by Skullcandy headphones. I first bought a pair of Ink'd (1st Gen) for my flight to Germany. Loved them. A friend gifted these to me for my birthday, and as a musician, I absolutely LOVE these earbuds. I never want to take them out! I keep finding excuses to wear them (Like using them for a headset for my phone instead of Bluetooth.) I would highly recommend these. Afterall, I go around raving about Skullcandy to everyone I know.
BOTTOM LINE YES, I recommend this product
My... Seventh pair?
July 28th, 2013
These are probably the best ear buds I personally have ever used. I use these things while i do EVERYTHING and they just will not break no matter what kind of trouble I put them through. I'm on my seventh pair of the titans not because they break, but because I keep leaving them places on accident. Another added benefit to these buds is they are PERFECT for a drummer. The titans have a perfect balance between noise canceling and letting a little bit of sound in so you can still hear your song, yet hear your own drums while you play no matter how hard you hit! I just have one question... why are you still reading this and not buying a pair of these buds right now?!
BOTTOM LINE YES, I recommend this product
50/50 or Titans?
July 24th, 2013
Surprisingly last longer than I thought because there metal. Also there lighter and smaller than 50/50 so they won't fall out of your ear as much. They basically sound the same as the 50/50 except the bass sounds a little louder in the Titans. Titans also don't look as nice as the 50/50 with the really nice cord and variety of colors and also Titan do not have Mic 3. Over all once I need a new pair i'd go back te 50/50 because they look better and also with the shoelace cord and basically sounds the same.
BOTTOM LINE YES, I recommend this product
Great, but could improve
July 18th, 2013
Got these for Christmas, and I loved them. Excellent sound quality, noise blocking, and once I switched the caps, they fit like a glove. The only thing is, the rubber around the part you plug in wasn't protected, so they rubber split and the wires shift now. Sometimes, I don't get sound at all. Would have been a five if they had wire strain protectors. They lasted about two years overall. I did have them wrapped around an iPhone about 99% of the time, and then I had them in a pocket of my school bag or bouncing around in my gym bag beyond that. They would have lasted longer if I unplugged them after wrapping. It would have taken strain off the wires. But yeah, with normal use, they last a decent amount of time and the quality is fantastic.
BOTTOM LINE YES, I recommend this product
July 6th, 2013
I got these almost a year ago. I used them for work and play, they have fallen on concrete millions of times. One time the plastic popped of super glue fixed that. Amazing durability, amazing bass, amazing sound

I BOUGHT THESE HEADPHONES AFTER BEING DISSATISFIED WITH A PAIR OF S4's. I WAS SKEPTICAL OF THE MANUFACTURER AS IT WASN'T ONE OF THE PROVERBIAL ELITE NAMES IN THE BUSINESS. I NEEDED SOMETHING RIGHT NOW, SO I GAMBLED ON THE SKULLCANDY TITANS. I USE THEM FOR HOURS EVERYDAY. THEY HAVE A NICE TIGHT BASS, GOOD RANGE THAT BALANCES THE MIDS AND HIGHS. THEY DON'T HAVE THAT MUDDY SOUND THAT YOU GET WITH OTHER EARBUDS. CRISP, CLEAR AND DURABLE.

they can take a beating
May 9th, 2013
I have gone through several pairs of titan headphones using them daily either working out or working and neither of these activities is easy on headphones and quickly burned through 4 or 5 pairs of the FMJ's in as quick as a month before switching to the titans which last around a year a pair. Right now I have 2 pairs one of which is getting warrantied right now. the new one has the mic in it which is a bit worrisome because that is usually what instigated problems with the FMJ's that I had.
BOTTOM LINE YES, I recommend this product
Titans not as good as 50/50
April 30th, 2013
I had a pair of 50/50's and they broke so I replaced them with the Titan's. I prefer the 50/50's. They seemed to have more bass and more range. I noticed right away when I put the Titans on for the first time I noticed they didn't sound as good as the 50/50's. They are still pretty nice earbuds though.

I take these almost everywhere, and I miss them when i don't

I think I've been looking for these headphones all my life. I love in-ear and am especially drawn to any headphone that has a balance in the sound reproduction. These thump my head with bass but also do a great job with treble without sounding tinny. I've had pretty much every headphone out there includiung Klipsch, Sennheiser and Bose and I think these are much better (and in most cases, less expensive.) I highly recommend.

These headphones have an awesome sound. Are they a steal for the price? No, probably not. They are what I would expect for the money.

Excellent Earbuds!
January 19th, 2013
I bought the older model for these earbuds and they were a great step up from all other competitors for the same price. I haven't left skullcandy yet. They have great quality sounds, noise cancellation, durability, and an enticing warranty. I listened to music for at least an hour a day and these lasted me 8 months until one side started going quiet. I compared these to a friend's Beats by Dr. Dre earbuds and these are the most notable differences (keep in mind these are just the earbuds I am talking about): -Titans feel more comfortable -Titans have better noise cancellation -Titans have much much better mid and high range quality and clarity (much better balance between lows, mids, highs) -Titans have better bass quality If you want noise go buy Dre's earbuds. If you want music buy these bad boys.

January 19th, 2013
I had just bought these and I played bangarang by Skrillex and the for the first time I literally jumped before the bass even dropped.

Great Earphones!
January 12th, 2013
These earphones were the second pair I'd bought from Skullcandy, and with this pair I was looking for something that would last me for a while, and have great sound quality. I wear these earphones hours at a time and our very comfortable to wear, and the sound quality is still as good as the day I got them. As far as how long they last these earphones have definitely exceeded my expectations. I have had these for over a year now and recently have accidentally washed them along with my jeans. After this I expected them to not work like I know most earphones wouldn't after washing them, but surprisingly they worked just as well as they did before! Over all these earphones are great and are well worth what I paid for them.
BOTTOM LINE YES, I recommend this product
As an active athlete these are amazing.
January 3rd, 2013
Im A Bodybuilder so it requires lots of movement action but to get in the zone it requires hardcore headphones that can keep up.The Titans have that ability,Doesnt matter what i do i always have them the wire is pretty hardcore have gotten a few pulls from getting stuck never ever ripped or got any damage from it.The earbuds are awesome you cant hear anything out not even music being played loudly at gym also sweat does not get in also very comfortable and hard to fall or move from ear thats amazing how they always stay in place! The only thing from previously owned pairs was that my sound from one earbud randomly died twice with no reason or damage but hey Skullcandy was there replaced everything new at no cost cant say the same 5 star customer support from other well known company! The sound is amazing compared to previously owned pair from a very well known and popular company i surely say that skullcandy provides more quality,supreme sound,comfort,better price and overall no worries because the warranty is awesome! I never workout without my skullcandys!
BOTTOM LINE YES, I recommend this product
Excellent sound, wire problem
December 29th, 2012
I got these headphones for my birthday, and I must say wow. These earbuds have an amazing, deep bass that doesn't block out lyrics. I love that. They are really comfy for MY ears, and they block out a lot of noise. Even when I don't have any music on, they still block out a good amount of outside noise. Th carrying case is good quality and protects them. I have one complaint, and that is that the left earbud went completely out after a few months. And, this happened to me TWICE. It might be that I dropped thm, but I have ink'd 1, and they have been through a lot and still work perfectly. And, this has happened to others. Skullcandy should use thicker, more durable wires. I recommend that if you get these, be really careful. Overall, these are great, but need different wires.
BOTTOM LINE YES, I recommend this product

The Skull candy Titans are probably some of the toughest ear buds on the market! I have even jumped into a pool with these in my pocket once and just in case your wondering, I didn't have the ear buds in the case when i jumped into the pool! The bass is the best it could possibly get for ear buds. These Titans are definitely cheaper then beats ear buds and have way better sound quality.
BOTTOM LINE YES, I recommend this product
December 15th, 2012
Explosive is a good way to explain these buds. The bass is loud and clear, the treble is a little off balance but the bass and clear lows make up for it. Deep, clean sound for earbuds. Comfortable and look great. I'd definitely recommend, had them for months and still working like day one.
BOTTOM LINE YES, I recommend this product
Pretty Good
November 23rd, 2012
I have these without the Mic and they work perfectly fine. Even after having them for over 6 Months. The only problem is the left earbud actually came apart and eventually stopped working to the point where it actually fell off. The right earbud still works perfectly fine and I still use it. I say go for it they are good earbuds I just think that I am a little rough with them.

These were my 1st pair of Skullandy headphones and i still own and use them. I've had 2 pairs of FMJs and the Titans have outlasted both of them, and i have put the Titans through a lot. I think this is because the braided chord makes them more durable, and the fact that the chord is braided means the chord will straighten out. (Unlike headphones with rubber chords that tangle very easily) Also the funny thing is they sound exactly the same as the FMJs when i put them through a side-by-side test!

Best Headphones I've ever had

These headphones...
November 4th, 2012
These headphones have a certain background bass that is unbelievable and controlled. the bass does not overpower the treble at all, and I've discovered that they produce a middle sound that I've never heard before. the only problem is the same problem I've had for every pair of headphones ever; the squishies fall out and I lose them. that's ok though, I love these headphones!
BOTTOM LINE YES, I recommend this product
Called Titans for a reason
November 1st, 2012
i was surprised, picked these up 1/2 off at Zumies, so i got a REALLY good deal on them, and there great. i've had them almost a year now and they still work like new.

I have had 2 sets of these within 3 months. Both have broken. the first was a faulty manufacturing cord, and the second time the left earbud was faulty. It is a shame because they sounded good but the make and quality was poor. luckily the warranty can help with problems like these. I cant recomend these due to the bad quality that i have seen though.
SkullCandy way ahead of it's time!
October 13th, 2012
These headphones are simply amazing. I for one, prefer in ear headphones because over ear, etc. you pay for more power for those headphones to try and create enough power for sound throughout your whole ear anyway and sound is lost and possibly muffled depending on the type and brand. With that said, these in ear headphones do have amazing, supreme sound and are durable. They go with me anywhere. SkullCandy leads portable sound in my opinion! (Don't waste valuable $ on Beats... No need! All you're paying for is the logo... Not sound) SKULLCANDY!!!!!!!!

I had my titans for about 3 months, before they broke, and normal people would complain, but I got a pair of 50/50's anyways. As for sound tho, I loved these things. Yes the bass did have a tendency to over power the vocals, but all in all some great headphones tho.

Awesome headphones but durability could be better.
September 30th, 2012
These headphones are amazing. Sound quality is incredible with any type of music. Noise blocking is a lifesaver and works fantastically, I can sit anywhere and watch anything without having to constantly increase the volume due to outside noise. The cord is also super long if you want to share headphones. They are comfortable enough to wear all day and not hurt your ears. The only problem I've had with them is how long they last. I bought these for the first time and loved them, but after 8-9 months the left ear bud stopped working. I sent them in and got a new pair free. So I was pretty satisfied until a few days ago when the sound on both ears became static-like and hard to hear. This time I was confused because I've only had them for about 3-4 months and took really good care of them. So now I'm a little irritated and sending them back hoping I get another pair that lasts longer this time. Too bad I have to go 3-4 weeks without good headphones while they process the request. Overall, I would still recommend these headphones since they do work well and because of skullcandy's warranty policy. In the end, maybe it's just me having bad luck.

Best earbuds ever
September 20th, 2012
These earbuds are amazing, it doesn't matter what you listen to. These earbuds get the job done. I listen to a variety of music, experimental, screamo, metal, dubstep, electronica, hard core, rap occasionally and so on. These earbuds sound amazing no matter what music you listen to. A must buy.

So Much Better!
September 16th, 2012
These headphones are awesome! The clarity is great, and so is the noise isolation. As an artist when I draw I like to completely shut out the people around me, and these are perfect for just that. The fact that they have a warranty is also great because some people go through them quickly, although these seem to be built very well. Especially for the price, these are completely worth it.

I've gone through by far, 20 maybe more pairs of just earbuds; Sony, Phillips, Audio Technica, Klipsch, Kicker, even Beats by Dre, and they all had the same problem, lack of loudness, and the left bud would stop working.

ok for a while
June 29th, 2012
I have two pairs of these earbuds and both have broken. My first set broke at the jack where the headphones plug into the ipod or whatever and it wouldn't play any music through them and then the same with the second set. I sent in my first set on the lifetime warranty and never got them back. i waited a while for these ones to come out and they broke in the same spot within a month. Bottom line is you'll have to replace the jack at some point since it is so easy to just kink the cable up a little and have them not work. That or i just got two lemons somehow.
Going to buy again
June 27th, 2012
So I bought these about a year ago and I was a little iffy about spending so much money on them because I have had terrible luck with earbuds, with wires breaking, sides not working, or them being too big for my ears and uncomfortable. However, I found these to have the best sound quality of any headphones I have ever used. They fit beautifully and were really good quality. I was really sad when I accidentally washed them in my sweatshirt pocket and dried them and one side ended up not working. Totally my fault and I would never expect a headphone to work after being put through washer and dryer cycles, but they managed to hang in for an extra month and now I am going to buy another pair because I like them so much and I think they are worth the money.
BOTTOM LINE YES, I recommend this product
They're pretty ok
June 27th, 2012
I decided to get these after my 50/50's broke thinking that the only real difference between them and the 50s where the fact that the titans weren't "apple appreciated". (I was wrong) Let me elaborate a little. Its not like they're a bad pair of buds by all means. Its just that they cant compare to a few differences. The Bass on the 50/50s were crazy! Here they're not bad, just ok. being a bass player myself the difference was pretty noticeable. The cable seems kinda thinner also. It feels kinda FRAGILE, and it memorizes shapes "way" too well; its kinda hard to straighten out and it tries to stick to everything. Also it has a tendency to rattle and distort a bit when a track has a lot treble or high notes even with really low ones, they come out a little garbled. None of the problems i just mentioned where ever encountered with the 50/50s. End result......meh. All in all, I recommend that if you got the money go 50/50 unless you just want something different. (disclaimer: still a decient pair of buds despite review)

fairly nice earbuds.
June 14th, 2012
i buy a lot of headphones, all the time, I'm a little bit of an audiophile. these headphones are great, there were no plug problems with any device i used it with and there was a distinct click of the jack clicking into place and locking in with all the devices i used it with. the cord was not very well made however, sure it could take all the abuse i dish out to my headphones, but the design of the cord is very thin and stringy, so the cord EASILY gets wrapped up and tangled and then it takes a few minutes to get them untangled when you go to listen to your music. also the design of the cord(though strong) where is is connected to the buds, the design looks weak though it is tougher than expected, my pair prone about a year after i bought them because of a wire disconnection in the right earbud where the cord connects to the earbud. however you can use the nice carrying case skull candy provides in it to prevent tangling. don't wrap it up too tight because thats not good for the cord, but storing it in the given case works great. the case is small and can fit into any pocket, it even has a small mesh sleeve for you to put some spare rubber buds in, and skull candy provides three different sizes when you buy the titans. THE SOUND- the sound is great. most earbuds either have no bass(sony) or too much bass(bose). skull candy titans are almost a perfect balance of the lows,mids, and highs, none canceling the other out. there not the clearest sounding headphones i have ever used( grado sr80i) but they do have the best balance for earbuds i have ever heard. deep bass, high treble and everything in between.
BOTTOM LINE YES, I recommend this product

I cannot believe skull candy. I bought Titan earbuds in 2009, and they recently broke in 2012!

Great Sound!
June 6th, 2012
I was blown away by the sound of these headphones. I was looking for a good headset for less than $50 and I found it! My HTC One X did not come with a headset, so I bought a $50 pair of Philips that are maid specifically for Android phones, and these blew them out of the water. I also own a pair of Klipsch headphones that are my normal headphones and those were just as much as the Philips ones I bought for my phone, but honestly these are just as good, if not better. Could not be happier with my purchase. Crisp sound and great bass as well.

Great earbuds for the price - watch out for different versions!
May 29th, 2012
I got the 2011 Titans a month ago and I was very satisfied with them. However, I found out Skullcandy just released their new "Supreme Sound Titans" this month and I rushed out to buy the new version. Here's what you guys need to know - there are different versions of the Supreme Sounds out there. I bought my Supreme Sounds from Best Buy and it DOES NOT have the mic. Neither do the ones from Radioshack or Target. It appears that none of the Titans sold in stores include the mic as advertised on the Skullcandy site. Thus, I returned the Titans to Best Buy and got a pair of Titans off the Skullcandy site. Voila. Mic included. Now onto the review of the new Titans themselves. Honestly, there isn't much of difference with the sound between the old and new versions. Bass booms, mids and highs are fairly clear. What IS new is the mic, which is great and convenient, especially if you switch songs often. The Supreme Sound Titans I bought came with a metal case, which seems a bit flimsy compared the 2011 nylon mesh ones. I think they've changed it again, but I'm not quite sure. Another thing: the new Titans seem to fit less snugly in one of my ears than the old version. If you experience this as well, you can remedy it with the Comply foam tips, which you have to buy separately. They are a little expensive ($15) which is almost half the cost to buy the Supreme Sound Titans new, but are very comfortable and like memory foam. They mold into the shape of your ear. I'd try looking on Ebay or Amazon for better deals on them though :P Overall, these Supreme Sound Titans were a great buy, and I'm very happy to be an owner of them. The mic is great, and the sound quality is right on good. Lots of bass, clear vocals and good sound stage. No other earbud can compete for this quality in this price range. Great bang for the buck!

Amazing Headphones
May 21st, 2012
I've had 2010 Titans, 2011 Titans, and now 2012 Titans. Why? Because the Titans are awesome. For the price, these are the best. I got the Supreme Sound ones and they are awesome although there wasn't any mic which I thought was odd because I got the newest (Supreme Sound) at RadioShack but I don't care because even if it had it I couldn't use it cause I don't have an Apple product. Anyway the sound is awesome! I don't know why the old ones had better ratings. I think these are better. They have good sound isolation and the new case for them is pretty cool looking but it is hard to open for me at least. If you want great headphones for a good price these are it.

Titans are TITANS
May 17th, 2012
Ok, well i recently got titans, and I've had ink'd and jibs before, they're both really great sets of headphones, but the Titans blew them out of the water. Their sound quality is even better than a 300 dollar pair of beats, trust me, I've tested them. The sound is clearly more solid. My only issue is that, eventually they start to hurt my ear, the right one. My guess is that is presses against my ear, but it's minor complaint for such a great product.

Great Earbuds but must be taken careful care of

Solid Earbuds
May 8th, 2012
I've had my Titan ear buds for about 4 years now. They still work as well as the day I got them. Over all, the quality of the Titan is good. Audio quality is enjoyable for ear buds, and the swappable rubber ear pieces let you customize the fit for your ear, making them very comfortable and secure. Biggest issue I have is the cable noise. These ear buds are VERY sensitive to transmitting vibration up the cable (such as when it rubs on your collar or jacket zipper). This can get aggravating sometimes.
BOTTOM LINE YES, I recommend this product
Key FeaturesPrecision-cut metal housing drives a sound from deep within this bud that resembles an army of warrior giants marching in lockstep to the beat of your playlist. To say the Titan's hardcore housing and Supreme Sound are "impressive" would be a colossal understatement.

There have been many slogans used over the years to advertise the great beer of the Emerald Isle.
"Guinness for Strength" is my favorite.
This is an example of why:
I want to add a couple of things from my own experience. Guinness is my beer of choice, although most American establishments neither store it nor serve it cold enough. I have toured the original brewery at St. James's Gate in Dublin and I am certified to pour the Perfect Pint.
For the last eight or nine years, I have played in a wheelchair basketball "celebrity" game. I also play in some occasional games along the way each year. As a TAB -- that's a Temporarily Able Body -- I have found the wheelchair version of the sport far more challenging. Who knows if my many years behind the plate have put my knees on a path to needing one myself someday. Perhaps some accident or time-related ailment will do it. One thing is certain: we all deteriorate with the sands of time. One more thing is certain: we all need loved ones to stand by us, even when standing isn't necessarily involved.
This spot makes me proud that Guinness is my beer of choice.

Publication: The Day
A news report Tuesday that Pfizer Inc. could be split into two companies in the next few years shouldn't necessarily concern scientists at the company's laboratories in Groton, according to a health care firm analyst.
Les Funtleyder, president of the investment advisory division of New York-based Poliwogg Inc., said a report by Bloomberg news service that sparked speculation Pfizer might soon cut itself in two is largely conjecture. New York-based Pfizer still has to finalize its already announced animal-health spinoff and other issues before tackling a possible move to split its new-medicines operations from its generics portfolio, a process that would take well over a year, he said.
But Funtleyder said any spinoff that eventually occurs would likely be a good thing for Pfizer's R&D scientists. Pfizer employs about 3,500 people in the region.
"It probably wouldn't mean a change as far as employment," Funtleyder said. "It could mean more focus on R&D."
Bloomberg reported Tuesday that Geno Germano, Pfizer's president of specialty care and oncology, said in an interview that the company's four business divisions would probably be whittled down to two at some point, representing so-called "innovative business" (R&D for new products) and "value business" (generics).
"We really see the business segmenting into these two segments with pretty different capabilities, and we would want to organize in a way that we realize the most value for shareholders," Germano told Bloomberg.
Germano didn't specifically say Pfizer was preparing to spin off one of its core businesses, but analysts already had been speculating that a split might be in the cards, and Germano's comments fueled further speculation.
Pfizer's stock price finished the day at $26.62, down less than half a percent, a change that Funtleyder said was likely more related to normal stock-market fluctuations than any concern about a spinoff.
"Investors are looking forward to earnings," he said. "Pfizer has had a very good run for the last month or two."
The price is close to a five-year high.
Pfizer, under chairman Ian Read, had decided to divest its nutritions and animal-health divisions to try to focus more on core drug products and cope with the loss of marketing exclusivity for cholesterol fighter Lipitor, which at its height brought in more than $10 billion a year in sales. Pfizer also has made drastic cuts to its R&D structure, including 1,100 layoffs in the past two years at local Pfizer sites, highlighted by the closure of its former world R&D headquarters in New London.
Funtleyder noted that the breakup of Pfizer would be similar to Abbott Laboratories' Jan. 1 spinoff of its branded drug line now known under the name AbbVie Inc. He said it is unknown how Pfizer might structure any spinoff, but it's possible that shareholders could be offered shares in each company, similar to what happened when AT&T divested itself of smaller phone companies.
A spinoff would create two distinctly different types of companies, the generics side more oriented toward slow and steady growth while the branded drugs business would include higher risks with the chance of higher returns, Funtleyder said. It would be up to stockholders whether to hold or sell either of the two companies, he added.

Fears are growing for the health of former U.S. President George Bush, Snr. after he was admitted to an intensive care unit.
The ex-leader, 88, was taken to a hospital in Houston, Texas last month (Nov12) for treatment to a bad cough following a bout of bronchitis, but he was still in the medical centre over the festive holidays after developing a fever.
Now it has emerged Bush, Snr. was transferred to an intensive care unit on Sunday (23Dec12). His spokesman says the former politician has suffered ""a series of setbacks including a persistent fever"".

Overall Rating
Still wearing the first pair of this great shoe more than 10 years after receiving as a gift... ordered a new pair only so I'd have a 'newer-dressier' version available too.

How do you most use this product?:Casual
So, they arrived yesterday. Great looking pair of shoes and you can feel the quality compared to others. Very classy boat shoe. I almost will hate wearing them on the boat and getting them wet and scuffed up. These shoes will definitely need a "break-in" period because of the stiffness. I wore them last night around the house for a couple of hours and this morning I can already tell they're relaxing. I usually wear a size 9 and that's what I ordered. There is just a wee bit of room in the toe but I would be afraid of going a half size smaller. Definitely will get another pair.
