Kansas City, KS - Spec Building Materials Corporation (NYSE: SPEC) announced today that the large building materials supplier has kicked off a campaign to rid itself of an unintentional and unwanted connection with the NFL's Pittsburgh Steelers football team.

In a hastily-called press conference at Spec's suburban Kansas City headquarters this morning, Melvin Stevenson, Chairman and CEO of Spec, stated that the rebranding effort would begin immediately.

"Though the national building economy has been trending upward, Spec's sales have fallen," said Stevenson. "And after a lot of very expensive research, focus groups assure us that those falling sales can be blamed at the simple fact that our corporate colors are virtually identical to those used by the Pittsburgh Steelers."

    whale spotted in illinois river A humpback whale was spotted near Morris IL in the Illinois River today. The sighting comes just days after 2 Great White Sharks were seen frolicking in the same area. While not impossible, it does seem unlikely. It is thought that the whale may have followed the sharks as they sometimes do in the wild. The whale would of had to travel over 1250 miles to get to this location. The Marine Biologist Association will be in town for a full investigation. Until we have answers, we are asking folks to keep their pontoons and fishing boats docked.

    two great white sharks found swimming in mississippi river near saint louis, missouri. While it is not entirely impossible, it is incredibly uncommon for salt water dwelling creatures to stay for lengthy periods of time in fresh water. However, two Great White Sharks have managed to survive the trip and make their way up the Mississippi River somehow. Believed to have started as a mating couple, the two are assumed to have swam the 920 mile journey from the mouth of the Mississippi River that is connected to the Gulf Of Mexico. Officials in Saint Louis have contacted the Missouri Conservation Department and will likely have a team in the river soon to capture the two lost sharks.
