This fall we are giving our staff a chance to show their favorite films on the big screen! We are kicking the series off with our Manager Abby's pick A CLOCKWORK ORANGE on September 20th at 7pm. Abby will introduce the movie and share why she loves the 1971 classic. Tickets are available now at countytheater.org/specials  (New York Area)

Abby had this to say about her favorite movie "Malcolm McDowell is perfection as Alex DeLarge. Thanks to a fantastic script, he disappears into the role and displays an impressive acting range. The one aspect that makes A Clockwork Orange my all time favorite movie is its ability to keep the audience engaged without feeling trapped in its dystopian setting."

Archaeologists in Zambia have unearthed the ancient remnants of what is believed to be the oldest wooden structure ever to be found. The remarkable discovery was reportedly made by researchers from the University of Liverpool and Aberystwyth University as they conducted an excavation at the country's Kalambo Falls. To their astonishment, the team found a pair of well-preserved logs which were joined together by way of notches crafted using stone tools. The rudimentary structure, which they theorize could have been the base of a platform or house, is thought to be an astounding 476,000 years old.

Should their analysis be correct, the joined logs would constitute the oldest-known evidence of our distant ancestors crafting wood to create a structure, which upends previous thinking about human evolution. "Forget the label 'Stone Age,' look at what these people were doing: they made something new, and large, from wood," marveled the University of Liverpool's Larry Barham, "they used their intelligence, imagination, and skills to create something they'd never seen before, something that had never previously existed." Beyond the ingenuity on display by way of the two logs, the researchers also note that the discovery calls into question previous assumptions regarding ancient humans may have lived.

 
Few people know that Popeye's character (Arm wrestle) really existed. His real name was Frank ′′ Rocky ′′ Fiegel, born in Poland in 1868. he emigrated with his family to America where in 1887 he joined the Navy.

When he was with children he held the pipe with the corner of his mouth and told them the antics of his youth, often boasting of his physical strength and loudly claiming that spinach is the food that makes him invincible.

Popeye's character creator Elzie Crisler Segar was born in Chester and was one of the children who had the privilege of hearing ′′ live ′′ the stories of the former sailor."
