KENNY CHESNEY SAYS “SOMEWHERE WITH YOU” HAS HEART APPEAL. With his newest single, “Somewhere With You,” Kenny Chesney believes that part of the song’s appeal is in its different kind of melody, but also the idea behind the lyrics, moving on from an old love but still remembering that person in their thoughts. “So many people can relate to that. They have that person in their life that, you know, yeah I’m with this person…now. But, I still think about this over here, and this may be a great committed relationship, or it may just be a date that, you know, still that person is in their head and in their heart and they’re thinkin’ about it.” Hear “Somewhere With You” on Kenny’s album, Hemingway’s Whiskey, which also includes the chart-topper, “Boys of Fall”.

MAKE YOU LAUGH
Jamestown, New York, police answered a domestic disturbance call involving a dispute between a man and his girlfriend, who was under an order of protection to stay away from him. During the argument, she allegedly struck him several times in the forehead with a Stanley Hammer Tacker, a carpenter's staple gun. Police arrived to find the male victim with staples in his forehead. She was arrested, and he was taken to a hospital for treatment.
* Doctors hadn't seen anything like it since the cops busted up a fight between Moe, Larry and Curly.

This Is Nuts
An annual survey of the top 75 U.S. metropolitan areas named Washington, DC, as the most literate city in America. The study by Central Connecticut State University is based on the number and frequency of use of libraries, bookstores, newspapers, magazines and the Internet.

HEALTH MOMENT
The squeaky wheel really does get the grease, or in this case, the rice cereal: A new study finds that fussy babies get introduced to solid foods earlier than laid-back infants.
That's a problem, researchers report in the journal Pediatrics, because the early addition of solid foods and juice adds calories to a baby's diet. Previous research has linked these excess calories to higher weight and body mass index (BMI), a measure of weight per height, in infancy and toddlerhood.
The American Association of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends that babies breast-feed exclusively until 4 months of age, and 6 months if possible. That can be difficult when moms have to work and babies have multiple caregivers.
The AAP also recommends that solid foods be introduced after four months
The kids who rocked the boat were the most likely to get age-inappropriate food. Moms who described their kids as fussy were almost twice as likely to feed them solid food early compared with moms who said their babies were calm.
Moms who were themselves obese also fed babies more solid foods. Moms who showed symptoms of depression, on the other hand, gave babies more juice.
That's a sign that overwhelmed moms are turning to juice to soothe fussy infants. You can calm down babies by giving them juice. The downside of that is then you're teaching a kid really early on that if you're in trouble, go and eat something sweet.
Researchers say, the solution is to promote breast-feeding and remind parents that young babies don't need solids. It can be difficult, but parents should try rocking a fussy baby or taking him or her for a walk instead of turning to juice and food for remedies.
BREAK TIME CHATTER
The Hubble Space Telescope has taken the first images of a mysterious giant, green blob in outer space that NASA describes as "strangely alive." It's a giant ball of gas that's giving birth to new stars in remote parts of the universe where stars don't normally form. A University of Alabama astronomer said they're "very lonely newborn stars" that are "in the middle of nowhere."
* A giant, gaseous blob in outer space...So that's what happened to Rosie O'Donnell.
And I leave you with this thought.
"Let yourself be silently drawn by the stronger pull of what you really love."
