Don Cornelius dead: Legendary ‘Soul Train’ creator dies at 75
Don Cornelius, the man who created and hosted the iconic Soul Train show for 22 years, died Wednesday at his Southern California home of an apparent suicide.
——————————————
It’s sad when a person dies, but It makes me even sadder to know he took his own life. This was one the the coolest dudes on the planet. RIP

Stacey Irvine collapses after eating chicken nuggets since 2
Ever since she was 2-years-old, Stacey Irvine has eaten almost nothing besides chicken nuggets. Now at 17-years-old, she had to be taken to the hospital this week when she collapsed after struggling to breathe.
I find this story hard to believe! I don’t understand why this problem could not have been solved when the child was two. Seems to me this is definitely the parents fault, but I’ve never been there so maybe I should not be so quick to lay blame.

I have had one close call in the last year.

Japan declares tsunami-hit plant stable : http://wapo.st/w4yUKG
This type of disaster could happen with any nuclear power plant under the correct set of conditions. Stable is a long way from safe.
I wonder how many people worldwide live within forty miles of nuclear plant! I bet it’s millions.

I think this is a good idea, but I can’t see how it will be enforced.
This is is a fantastic advance. I hope I never need surgery but if I do I hope something like this will be available.
