CDC: Child, Teen Injury Deaths Dropping
April 16, 2012 -- The death rate from unintentional injury among children and teens has dropped by about a third in a decade. But troubling increases occurred in prescription drug deaths among older teens and suffocation deaths among infants, the CDC says.
More than 9,000 children and teens in the U.S. -- about one child every hour -- died in 2009 from injuries with causes such as motor vehicle crashes, suffocation, drowning, poisoning, fires, and falls, according to a CDC rreport released today.
Among the major findings:
- The child injury death rate dropped by nearly 30% between 2000 and 2009, resulting in more than 11,000 lives saved.
- A 41% decline in deaths from motor vehicle crashes over the last decade was largely attributed to better use of seatbelts and child safety seats, and the strengthening of graduated driver licensing laws aimed at teens.
- Poisoning deaths among older teens increased by 91% during the same period and suffocation rates in infants younger than 1 rose by 54%.
"We have made progress, and because of this our children are safer than ever before, but injury continues to be a leading cause of death among children," CDC Deputy Director Ileana Arias, PhD, said in a news conference. "Injury continues to be a leading cause of death among children, and we know more can be done to keep our children safe."
Big Increase in Painkiller Drug Deaths
Abuse of prescription painkillers was largely responsible for the big jump in poisoning deaths among older teens, according to Arias and CDC medical epidemiologist Julie Gilchrist, MD.
Almost twice as many teens between the ages of 15 and 19 died from poisoning in 2009 compared to 2000, and the vast majority of these deaths were due to abuse of opioid painkillers like Demerol, Percocet, and Vicodin, they said.
The abuse of these medications has risen dramatically among adults over the past decade, and Arias said the same trend is being seen among older teens.
"It is tragic to see this epidemic beginning in younger people," she said, adding that painkillers have become gateway drugs to other widely abused substances like heroin.

I Hate Thanksgiving Clean-Up!! (and my go-to turkey recipe)
(Edited post-Thanksgiving to remember how I made it this year. Easiest ever and most moist turkey to date)
325 degrees. Washed and patted turkey dry. Rubbed with canola oil and seasoned with Montreal Steak Seasoning. Place turkey in oven and dumped 2 1/2 quarts of chicken broth into bottom of the pan and added a stick of butter. Roasted for one hour and then started basting turkey and turning pan around every half hour until turkey was nicely browned on top. Covered just the top loosely and continued to baste/bake until turkey was done.

Once again we celebrate a national holiday that chains the woman to the kitchen. Let's face it, this is purely a man's holiday, thought up by a man.
Hell yeah! I might be getting old but my hippie protesting days are not over. I think I'll burn my painful underwire bra while I'm smoking the turkey.

Congrats on the smoking! I too quit 18 months ago and totally understand how hard that is. I've been doing the Belly Fat Cure - Jorge Cruise for 11 months and lost 25lbs with no problem. It is the easiest life change I have ever made and I've been dieting 40 of my 50 years on this earth:). Good luck with SBD! & your grandson is a doll!

How long did it take you to remove all that foil from the rack, once the turkey was done? Just askin'!
I just heard of using Montreal steak spice on chicken wings and tried it. It was fantastic. I never thought of it for turkey. You are just a brilliant woman!!

I must have done something wrong when I tried this because it took me longer to pick off tiny stuck pieces of foil than it would have to just wash the rack. Think I wrapped them too tight. ?
Everyone stayed far away from the deranged woman who swung between cussing & laughing trying to get that foil off. Didn't help that I drank a pot of coffee & used Bailey's shots for creamer while cleaning up.
Next year I'll use 2 sheets of thick foil, drape the rack & just poke drainage holes. More Bailey's & less coffee.
Hope your holiday was filled with love & happiness.

(((Thisoldbroad)) Awww... I feel terrible that this didn't work for you! Did you notice that I used non-stick foil?
It still took awhile to do the unwrapping. I'm really not sure if I was further ahead or not.

Don't feel bad for me - it wouldn't be the holidays without kitchen disasters & giggly, tipsy lunatics trying to cook. It's tradition! Actually - my kitchen 'mishaps' are legendary!
Good cheer & good health sweet lady.

What a great idea to wrap the rack like that! Love it, love it, love it!

- Quirky Jessi said...
What a great idea! If it's time-consuming to get off, it may still be a pain to clean up, but I'd rather deal with that than having to soak and scrub as much.

The Lazy Girl's Guide to Throwing a Badass Holiday Party
The best way to break up with a friend is dictated by the reason why you are breaking up. Maybe you don't have anything in common anymore—or maybe she's morphed into a total beeyotch. Your gut is likely right about your feelings, but knowing why you want her out of your life will help you decide how to end things.
Consider taking a break first, or downgrading to a less intimate friendship if you find you're growing apart or just don't have anything in common.
"Sometimes a 'pull-back' gives both sides time to breathe, grow, and then either miss each other, or continue to move on separately," Coombs says. "There may be benefits to prolonging some level of contact."
How to Beat Holiday Stress

The folks over at Capitol City Airport were decking the halls Monday, putting up garlands, lights and trees. It is all in preparation for the big holiday travel crunch from Wednesday to Sunday.
Airlines say many flights are full leaving the airport. Travelers are encouraged to arrive 90 minutes before their flight is scheduled to leave. Officials say bags, both checked and carry-on, will be subject to searches. To expedite trips through security, passengers should wear clothing with little metal on it and also little jewelry.
A federally issued photo identification, such as driver's license or state ID, is needed to board flights and get through security. Sharp objects with blades, such as knives and razors, will be confiscated.
New executive director Robert Selig says the airport can handle the influx of fliers and good service is his first priority.

a couple of weeks before the girl from salt lake got snatched from her bedroom, there was a slew of african american girls getting abducted from the streets in DC. the media did nothing to raise attention to what appeared to be a serious kidnapper in the area. but as soon as a blonde little girl from an upscale neighborhood gets abducted, the media is setting up news vans around the clock outside the family's house. now i'm not saying that the girl from utah and her horrible abduction should have been ignored, obviously not. giving serious attention to these abductions is one of the good things that the media does. awareness helps in finding these despicable people who are kidnapping youth. its just a twisted view of priorities in the media. the media doesn't report anything until it affects upper middle class white america. when these things were going on in urban neighborhoods where minorities are the majority, it slipped under the radar of the national media.
its just another example of the racism that plagues the media.

Its goes without saying that our media is racist...But thats beside the point.
I doubt there has been a rise in the amount of kidnappings in the past couple of months. They are just covering them more now, to scare us into be snithces.
Look out for anything suspicious. Keep an eye on your neighbors. Your not just looking out for terrorists now, your looking out for kidnaoppers too.
I feel sorry for the People who buy into the media's coverage of these kidnappings. Im also scared that these are going to be the people who are going to report me to homeland security for reading a book in public in a few years.

How do y'all respond to the conservative's claim of a "liberal media".
I've seen it a lot, actually...but then I also hear stories like the one you mention in DC that tend to contradict that.
There's a book called "Bias" by an ex-news anchor where he speaks on the whole liberal media thing from an insider's perspective. It's worth borrowing from the library.
What do y'all think?

Yeah i always tell everyone, you know that there is probably a young kid abducted every 5 min in this country, but 90% of them arent Richy McRich so obviously they get no attention.
As soon as little Richard McRichrich gets abducted, OH NO, scramble the fighters! DEFCON 3. Fuck that. Of course this is obvious, but fuck it im going to rant anyways.
Im moving to Canada.

that isn't going to change anything.... though i was thinking of doing the same myself....except maybe England instead of Canada... its too close
PS: i was laughing my ass off when i clicked on the link and seen the face George W. was making...haha
PSS: is the rate of kidnappings actually getting bigger or is the medias coverage getting larger?
maybe the news was running out of things to say about 9/11 so they started up a new line of topics

All I know is South Park already did an episode about all of this like a week or two ago...it's good to see South Park leading our nation on "issues" of such great importance.
This is just another thing the government can use to convin your neighbor to turn into a spy.
I want a link to a story of that dc thing if anyone finds one.
Speaking of bush, did anyone see the daily show last night, they showed a clip of him taking off from his golf game to make some mideast policy--he honest to god concluded his speech which, "Now watch this driver" or something like that...I couldn't believe it. And the thing is no other news show shows stuff like this--WHY DO I HAVE TO GET MY NEWS FROM COMEDY CENTRAL???? Something is seriously fucked up.

Thousands of you have been victims of burglary.
This year there were almost 2000 burglaries in Richmond County.
For some thieves, the hardest part is just getting inside your home.
In this Special Assignment, News 12 shows you how they're getting a hold of your hidden valuables.
A 74-year-old burglary victim we spoke with can't forget what she came home to on a Friday afternoon last month. She only agreed to talk about it if we didn't reveal who she is.
"It just upset me so much to think someone had been in my house," she said.
We'll call her Sue. She's a widow who is now missing one of the last memories of her husband: their wedding rings.
"I had these two expensive TVs that they never bothered," she said.
Sue left her home during the day, leaving the rings on this dresser and some other jewelry in a box and in drawers.
It was scattered and picked through when she got back home and found her front door kicked in.
"I feel like they must have been watching me though to come in at that time of day."
Lt. Tony Walden leads the Richmond County Sheriff's burglary division. He hears stories like Sue's all the time.
"We have seen those in the past where they'll go through someone's jewelry and pick out certain pieces of jewelry and just leave the rest," he said. "They know what they were looking for."
The thief could be an adult looking to make money off your jewelry, TV, VCR, or weapons.
Or it could be a juvenile, just looking for a videogame to steal.
Regardless, Lt. Walden says most of the time, these things aren't hidden in very good places.
"People tend to hide stuff in their dresser drawers and under mattresses and in their closets," he told News 12.
You may want to double check things the next time you get ready to leave your house. Investigators say that in 95% of the burglaries, the items are easy to get to.
Sue is now a statistic...and she has advice for everyone else.
"I would have had my jewelry put away and I advise anybody to."
And keeping your valuables hidden is the only thing you can really do if you want to be safe.
"To be innovative in trying to find a place to protect their items...and you can even go so far as saying I'm going to put this stuff in a safety deposit box," Lt. Walden said.
It may be a little late, but Sue's made some of those changes now.
She's just glad she still has something valuable to hold on to.
"If I had left [my dog] in this house, she would have barked and they would have probably killed her...and I couldn't live without my dog."
And as burglaries continue to happen, Sue just wants everybody else to be prepared.
Lt. Walden reminds you to also keep track of serial numbers on your weapons and jewelry.
You're more likely to get your things back after a burglary. If and when they find them, they can track them back to you.
These are some ideas of good hiding places as listed on overseasdigest.com:
Walls, beams, baseboards, paneling, mirrors, furniture, bookcase, light switches, houseplants, or buried treasure.
The first five are better for people that own their own home, and the last five for those who rent or have an apartment.

Flick some cigarette ash into your Red Bull and knock it back in one big shot: we're about to go deep cut Lindsay Lohan drama.
You may have heard that Lindsay Lohan has had a chaotic 24 hours. Following a Justin Bieber concert yesterday evening, Lindsay hit da club with some members of British boyband The Wanted, a taller version of One Direction. While there, she allegedly punched a fellow patron in the face, and was arrested. Earlier today, she was formally charged with "willfully resisting, obstructing or delaying an officer in the course of their duties, providing false information to a police officer, and reckless driving," stemming from a car crash that occurred over the summer.
The false information Lohan provided to the police was that her assistant was the one driving her Porsche when it crashed.
When leaving the police station this morning, Lohan kicked an assistant out of the car that had arrived to whisk her away (see video above).
Same assistant.
Now, that assistant, Gavin Doyle, is calling Lindsay out on Twitter (with a possible classic America's Next Top Model reference):
Here's a transcription of the exchange that took place when she kicked him out of the car (taken from the video):
Lohan: [inaudible]...just like you did with Sam.
Doyle: No, I didn't!
Lohan: GAVIN, GET OUT OF THE CAR! GET OUT OF THE CAR, GAVIN! Get him out of the car! Get him out of the car, NOW! Gavin, get out! Gavin, get out of the fucking car. NOW.
Doyle: Okay. Never speak to me again.
In the video, as soon as Doyle steps back from the car Lohan's SUV pulls away. The New York Post's clip also shows Doyle walking down the street alone with his jacket pulled over his head, as photographers flock to him.
This isn't the first odd exchange the pair have had recently. On Monday night, Lindsay Lohan's twitter account published a tweet tagging Doyle's twitter handle @SaveTheSociety.
"Can't live without @SaveTheSociety he's my BFF."
That tweet (along with two others — one wishing Paris' little brother Barron Hilton a happy birthday) was subsequently deleted. On Tuesday night, Lohan posted this:
It's possible that Lohan and Doyle's relationship became strained after his own testimony to police about this summer's car crash contradicted her story, resulting the lying-to-cops charges that were filed against her today.
But everything seemed copacetic at least as far back as September.
We've reached out to Doyle for comment on the slow burning fiasco that is Lindsay Lohan's life, and will update if we hear back.

News 12 at 6 o'clock / Monday, April 14, 2013
AUGUSTA, Ga. (WRDW) -- An Augusta commissioner says his colleagues have not been following proper procedures. It's all about when to keep talking and when to start voting.
"It's unfair to handle government business and not be able to talk about it," said Commissioner Marion Williams.
Williams plans to remind his colleagues about proper procedure and protocol during commission meetings. He says they must have forgotten.
"Somebody calls for the question, and they want to vote on the agenda item," Williams said.
"We've got rules and procedures that govern the body. You've got the committee structure that allows people to speak as long as they want," said Mayor Deke Copenhaver.
There is a city rule book and it details how motions are made, tabled and also talks about the mayor's authority.
"The mayor is the official chair of the body. It's done, in my opinion, to give equal time to everybody. I'm doing what's fair," Copenhaver said.
Williams says this is necessary because some of his colleagues are calling for a vote and trying to end discussion.
"You can vote not to do it and then vote on the issue. The question is being called, and they're trying to vote on the issue and that is not right," Williams said.
The rules read that a commissioner may call for the question to end discussion. If there is no objection, then it's presumed there is unanimous consent.
If there is an objection, you need a majority vote to keep talking.
"I have not discussed this with Commissioner Williams, who is a friend, but I will," Copenhaver said.
"The city attorney is supposed to know those rules and keep commissioners and the mayor in line, but that doesn't happen," Williams said.
Those who make the rules also have rules to follow.

Dear Editor,
The Hathcox Reunion was once again a huge success. The staff at the Island Place could not have been more accomodating: the sightseeing trip; the Ellwood fishing trip.
I have been a member of the Hathcox and Cedar Key community for over 43 years. I've seen many, many changes; the old Cedar Key is no more, but the lasting relationships with the old families is always a cherished reminder of the 60's to present. Don't lose that special touch of yesteryear.
Hopefully, we will meet again at the annual Old Timers Celebration.
A new home town
City has done well without restaurant's help
Brian Mattice selflessly saved the day
Dear Editor,
Workforce housing and a youth center are the two projects that Cedar Key could benefit the most from, according to many residents who gathered last week at the Cedar Key Community Redevelopment Agency workshop to discuss needs and offer suggestions of how to spend the remaining CRA funds.
Levy County's hopes for growing business in the county has been dealt a second setback with the announcement that Tarmac America is moving the start date for construction of the King Road Mine from 2010 to 2011.
The company said the delay is due to a longer than anticipated permitting and review schedule for the limerock mine in south Levy County. Company officials had planned on a four-year process but now expect it could take five years.
While en route to his residence Saturday night, Cedar Key Police Chief Virgil Sandlin observed a truck speeding at 39.25 mph in a 25 mph zone on Gulf Boulevard.
Sandlin activated his emergency lights. The vehicle sped up and attempted to elude his marked police vehicle. The driver of the truck was unable to negotiate the corner at Whiddon Avenue and proceeded south on Gulf Boulevard to Palmetto Drive. Apparently the suspect was unaware that Palmetto is a dead end street, Sandlin said.
Waylan John Campbell, 18, of Rosewood, was arrested Tuesday for possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, culpable negligence and making a false report to law enforcement, said a spokesperson for the Levy County Sheriff Office.
January 28, 2010
We all have had those experiences that will forever be etched in our minds. Some moments are simply unforgettable – and no matter how much we might like to forget them from time to time – it's too important not to remember.
April 24-25 doesn't seem too far away for the Old Florida Celebration of the Arts Committee and the event coordinator, Mandy Cassiano.

PEBBLE BEACH -- With two wins and two top 10s in five years at the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am, it seemed inconceivable that big-hitting Dustin Johnson could ever miss the cut in this tournament.
But after winning the event in 2009 and 2010, finishing fifth in 2012 and seventh in 2008, that's precisely what happened last year. He shot 2 over par for the first three rounds and didn't make it to Sunday.
The 29-year-old Johnson is back to make amends this year. He shot a bogey-free 4-under 68 at Spyglass Hill on Thursday to put himself in contention after the first day.
But what happened last year, Dustin?
"I just played horrible; played bad, putted bad, did everything bad last year," he said. "But right now my game's pretty good, and I have a lot of confidence in it."
To wit, Johnson has played in four tournaments -- two of them unofficial events -- before coming to Pebble Beach and hasn't finished worse than 18th. But he did win his first event of the year, the WGC-HSBC Champions event in Shanghai in November, arguably the biggest win of his career. He tied for sixth in the Hyundai Tournament of Champions the first week of January.
Johnson hasn't played since, but he isn't showing any signs of rust. He even surprised himself with no bogeys.
"Even when I shot 63 here (in 2012), I bogeyed the last hole," he said. "I don't have many bogey-less rounds, period. Even when I play really well, it seems like I make at least one bogey somewhere. So I'm happy. I'm right where I want to be."
Johnson had a most unusual ninth-hole birdie. His approach shot on the uphill par-4 hit the pin, dropped inside the cup but bounced out. The ball rolled off the front of the green a significant distance. But he chipped his third shot perfectly, and the ball rolled in the hole.
"It was a pretty hard chip," he said. "But I said it was karma, because I got kind of screwed on the chip coming in. So that was nice."
Johnson is playing in one of the most eye-catching groups the first three days. His amateur partner is hockey great Wayne Gretzky, who is also his future father-in-law (Johnson is engaged to his daughter Paulina). The other pro in the group is John Daly -- who sported slacks featuring various denominations of U.S. currency -- and Daly's amateur partner is musician Kid Rock.
Johnson somehow survived asphyxiation, with Kid Rock and Gretzky puffing cigars and Daly averaging about a cigarette a hole.
"Wayne and Bobby (Kid Rock's real name is Robert Ritchie) like to smoke their cigars, but we had a great time," Johnson said. "A lot of laughing, a lot of picking on each other. And John, he's always fun to play with, a ton of talent."
Rodgers and pro playing partner Jerry Kelly, who also birdied the fifth hole, shared a chest-bump on the sixth tee. They finished the day 6 under -- six shots behind the leaders when the action was suspended because of darkness.
Rodgers was just part of a pretty good Cal performance for the day. James Hahn (69, Pebble Beach), rookie Max Homa (73, Pebble Beach) and Charlie Wi (71, Spyglass) are three former Cal golfers in the pro field.
"I was pretty thrilled with the way I played today," Gretzky said. "I'm more happy with the fact that (Dustin) played 4 under on a tough course."
Gretzky said he hasn't gotten his son-in-law on skates yet.
"We almost did, and then I talked him out of it," he said. "I didn't want him to get hurt. One of these days we'll get him out there."
Staff writer Matt Schwab contributed to this report.

ACAPULCO, Mexico (AP) -- The sun has been peeking out along Mexico's Pacific coast today, but Tropical Storm Andres is approaching.
It's expected to grow into the Pacific season's first hurricane late today and graze the port city of Manzanilla.
The storm has already brought heavy rains to Acapulco, where it knocked down trees and caused flooding that forced about 150 people to evacuate homes yesterday. The U.S. National Hurricane Center says Andres could bring a coastal storm surge as much as 3 feet above normal and as much as 8 inches of rain in a few spots.
Andres has been picking up speed as it heads for the coast. At latest report it was centered about 70 miles south-southeast of Manzanillo, moving northwest at about 12 mph. Top sustained winds are near 70 mph, and they're expected to build to 75 by late tonight.
The forecast track shows it weakening as it continues northwest along the coastline and veering west into the open Pacific and just south of the Baja California peninsula Thursday morning.

Jockey Rosie Napravnik is horse racing's new darling
Julie Krone has never met Rosie Napravnik in person, but the greatest woman jockey ever shares texts and Facebook posts with Napravnik, a 25-year-old lady rider who has become one of the top jockeys in the nation.
"I cannot tell you the vicarious joy that I am feeling as I watch Rosie Napravnik ride and win," said Krone, who lives in Carlsbad and in October will be inducted into the prestigious National Women's Hall of Fame in Seneca Falls, N.Y., home of the Women's Rights movement. "And besides that, Wayne Lukas bet me $10,000 that a woman jockey will never win the Kentucky Derby. For Rosie to win the Derby, it would be really good for racing and a really good promotion for the sport. And I'll win that $10,000 from Wayne Lukas."
Last week, Napravnik scored her 1,500th win after a breakthrough season in which she broke longstanding records set by Krone. She finished eighth in the year-end jockey standings and earned $12,451,713. Krone finished ninth in the jockey year-end standings twice, in 1988 and 1992. Napravnik entered this weekend's big Derby prep races leading the nation's jockey's with 93 wins, and her $3,286,337 in earnings is fourth and one big stakes win away from Javier Castellano's nation-leading earnings of $3,559, 020.
Krone was the first to win a Triple Crown race, the Belmont Stakes aboard Colonial Affair in 1993, and the first to win a Breeders' Cup race, the Juvenile Fillies aboard Halfbridled in 2003.
Napravnik became the first female jockey to win the Kentucky Oaks when she rode Believe You Can last year. In 2011 she rode Pants On Fire to a ninth-place Kentucky Derby finish, the best ever for a female jockey. Krone finished 11th aboard Suave Prospect in 1995 and 14th with Ecstatic Ride in 1992. Krone and Napravnik are two of only six women jockeys to ever ride in the Derby. Diane Crump was the first, finishing 15th in the 1970 Kentucky Derby aboard Fathom.
Napravnik rides Shanghai Bobby at Gulfstream Park Saturday in the Florida Derby, a very important Kentucky Derby prep. Despite winning the Breeders' Cup Juvenile World Championship at Santa Anita in November, when Napravnik seemed to bring the big colt back from the dead in the stretch, Shanghai Bobby needs a big showing in his rematch with Itsmyluckyday, who gave him his first loss in the Holy Bull. Shanghai Bobby has 24 Derby qualifying points, but the Florida Derby will kick out 100 points to the winner, 40 points for second, 20 for third and 10 for fourth. He needs a share of that to get into the Derby.
"Even in defeat, I think (the Holy Bull) was one of his best races," said Napravnik, who is from New Jersey but has a home with her husband in New Orleans, where Mayor Mitch Landrieu gave her the Key to the City. "It's just that he's a horse that is really well put together. He's extremely athletic and he's very talented."
Napravnik said there's a big reason why she's been riding better the last two years.
"My body probably is as sound as it's ever been," she said. "I've had issues with my back, and I've always had issues with my legs. But I'm feeling better than ever and I'm having a great meet at the Fair Grounds. Everything has been really positive."
Jack Wolf, one of the principals of Starlight Racing, said of Napravnik: "She's a very good rider who just happens to be a woman. She's just unflappable. She's cool and obviously comfortable on these horses."
Trainer Larry Jones has become a big believer in Napravnik. Jones entrusted his super filly, Believe You Can, to her last May in the Kentucky Oaks.
"You can almost classify her as just 'jockey,' now," Jones said. "You don't have to put 'woman' on there anymore. She's talented. And horses love to run for her. She's a terrific horseperson. If she can stay healthy, believe me, she'll go down in the history book."
Steve Cauthen, the last jockey to win the Triple Crown when he rode Affirmed in 1978, raced against Krone and has kept a close watch on Napravnik.
"Julie Krone was the best female jockey who ever rode," Cauthen said. "I think a lot of it was her mentality. She was mentally tough in a race. She didn't give an inch. Rosie Napravnik is from the same sort of stuff. She looks good on a horse. She's strong and she looks like she has that mental toughness a lot of women don't totally have."

"It was the bloody death of a bird that provoked Mike to throw his first ever punch" says narrator Michael Kenneth Williams (The Wire), and we're off to the pigeon races with Taking On Tyson, Animal Planet's new docudrama.
On Episode One, former boxing champion Mike Tyson returns to his childhood home of Brownsville, Brooklyn, where we learn about his tragic pigeon past and that "at the age of 11 an encounter with a sadistic gang member made him a fighter." That after his belt-losing Lennox Lewis fight in 2002, he flew straight home to his coop where he finds comfort and solace (and Sapphire Glow-esque halos). And now he's trying to become a better person by forming a fledgling racing team with three of his oldest friends and a seasoned Racing Homer coach, to compete in the 6-month racing season of Tri-State pigeon clubs in this 6-episode series.
Taking On Tyson airs on Animal Planet, Sunday @ 10PM.

"As a teacher and a lover of radio in all its incarnations, I wanted to tell you how much I have enjoyed your website since first I went hunting for Charlie Chan. So many of these shows I remember from my youth, which dates me but, when it comes to good drama, who cares. Over the years, I have played your programs in class, and utilized them to further diverse lesson plans. What a boon literate speech, reasonable pacing, advanced vocabulary, and great story telling can be be to a ESL instructor and her students. Thus, your site provides a service you may not be aware of, but I would like to extend my thanks. As a part of my personal educator outreach activities, I've written up my experiences with old time radio and language instruction for in an article for Suite101. More may follow as I detail lessons for specific shows. Thank you again for providing these fascinating tales."

Bringing Back Departed Species: Is De-Extinction a Good Idea?
The image of the woolly mammoth, saber-toothed cat and dodo bird stepping out of a beaker on the cover of National Geographic's April issue says it all. Science has found a way to bring back some long-extinct species — or at least, facsimiles of them.
In truth, the goat-like bucardo, or Pyrenean ibex, is the only extinct animal scientists have actually revived. In 2003, biologists managed to clone an offspring from frozen skin cells from the last survivor, which died in 2000. The clone, however, lived for only a few minutes after its birth. Since then, advances in cloning technology have made it possible to bring back any species if there is a remnant of DNA.
But with so many habitat pressures on the wild species that are already here and with so many on the brink of extinction, is bringing back those we've already lost a good idea?

Matt Lauer may be looking for a new job soon.
A former NBC executive told gossip site Confidenti@l that as the "Today" show continues its ratings slide, replacing Matt Lauer is now seriously being discussed.
"They are rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic. They can shift things around, but it's not helping," the source said. "Their short-term solution is looking for new experts to replace some of the familiar faces that have been on the show forever. What they also need to do is hire someone to shake up everything and have the discussion about what to do with Matt."
Lock him in his car?
The New York Daily News said "Today," which held the top spot in mornings for the past 16 years, is now behind both "Good Morning America" and the Fox affiliate's morning show in the all-important New York Market. morning show "Good Day New York," losing to both in the February sweeps. "GMA" beat "Tod
Somewhere, Ann Curry throws a fist in the air.
"'Today' can't continue like this," said the insider. "If they don't act soon, the show will be a distant memory."
The Daily News' source said Comcast, the network's owner, is "aggressively" looking to add another executive producer to the show. However, "they are having a lot of trouble finding anyone until the network makes the one change that needs to be made -- replacing Matt Lauer."
Morale at "Today" is supposedly bad, as staffers are afraid of losing their jobs after the departures of co-anchor Ann Curry, former executive producer Jim Bell and NBC News President Steve Capus, who resigned in February.
"On top of everything, Matt took a vacation during sweeps. It doesn't seem to matter if he's around or not," says a source.

The Denver rock 'n' roll band, The Congress, returns tonight and Saturday to the Snake River Saloon, 23074 Hwy. 6 in Keystone.

Newly back from touring "pretty much since July," group members are "happy to be taking it easy in Colorado and playing around the state," Lane said. They've been at it two to three years, including past appearances at the Snake.
Showgoers can expect "nuns, limbo, clowns, a dog show, conga lines and scavenger hunts," Lane said, encouraging guests to "support original music, and party."
