Led by Cory Portnuff, an audiologist at Colorado who began studying iPod-related hearing loss in 2006, the study found that teens not only tend to play music louder than adults, but they are often unaware of how loud they're playing it. "I honestly don't believe that most people understand they are putting themselves at risk, or at what level of risk," says Portnuff. (See pictures of a diverse group of American teens...

Upon completion in 1970, Pusey was one of America’s few underground libraries. In order to build the library underground, anchored in the surrounding bedrock, the building...
...Worse yet, the latest accusations of impropriety concern Burris himself, a former state attorney general who was appointed the state's junior Senator last month over initially loud objections from fellow Democrats and Republicans in Washington and Springfield. Burris eventually won the nod of party leadership in Washington on the basis of his long, unblemished record of public service and strong denials that he had ever bargained with Blagojevich, who allegedly tried to sell Barack Obama's senate seat (a charge Blagojevich denies). But as he returned home this past weekend to kick off a listening tour of the state...
