About every local media outlet is spouting about a bear that was stuck in a tree and the firemen came and so now the bear is not stuck in a tree (Philebrity, with amusing interior-bear monologue). The location of Steve, the pet pig that was seized by local police for being a pet pig, is unknown. But, thank God, Steve has John Q. Public on his side. (Daily News)
In more serious news, The Inquirer notes that teachers all over the state have offered to implement salary freezes as a method of dealing with Corbett's education cuts. So much for the narrative of greedy public employee unions. Also, a study out of Cornell University argues that natural gas extraction will cause more damage to the environment than coal mining (Nature News). But that doesn't mean that the natural gas industry should be regulated, or taxed, or nothin'. And the Philadelphia Orchestra looks like it's going bankrupt, sadly. (NYT)
