Set your alarms early on Wednesday if you want to catch a rare 'blood moon' lunar eclipse just before dawn. The moon will appear to have a dark reddish hue due to the small amount of sunlight that bends around the Earth's atmosphere like a sunset. Earth's shadow will begin to pass over the full moon at 4:15 a.m. It will cover the moon at 6:15 a.m. and last for 59 minutes. However, the moon will set before the entire eclipse is complete. Moonset is 7:09 a.m. and sunrise is 7:04 a.m.

| Philadelphia's new $2-per-pack cigarette tax starts on October 1st. Officials are hoping that the new tax will bring in tens of millions of dollars in 'new' money for the budget weary Philadelphia School District.
