The tricky transition to adulthood | WBEZ

Listening to this excellent repeat; the full series is here

People between the ages of 18 and 25 are the most likely of any age group to experience mental illness. They’re also the least likely age group to get adequate services, and often have difficulty navigating the complex transformation into adulthood known as “the transition cliff.”

My Random Flickr: Two Headed Cadillac

Flickr

I just booked a business traveler to Rawlins, WY, and this picture from a road trip in 2004 popped into my head. Told my traveler to watch out for the two-headed Cadillac; he’s not from the US so he got a kick out of my description. There’s not much out there but wind farms and bitter cold, this time of year.

Newt Gingrich vs. Jon Huntsman: No Debate Between Running Mates?

Gingrich could sew up the Rational Right if he picks Huntsman, plus it throws a juicy bone to all the good people who’s feelings were “hart” over Robotney’s treatment by the religious Right.

Delta says its app is first to track checked bags, ADMITS THEY’RE NOT ON YOUR FLIGHT

My travel guru/buddy “Hey Dar” points out Delta is boasting that they screw up a lot on baggage, since the bags are supposed to be on your flight.

In case you missed this news around the Thanksgiving holiday, Delta says it’s the first U.S. airline to add baggage tracking to its app for smart phones and mobile devices.

Delta says its Delta mobile app now allows customers to track their checked luggage. The app currently is available for Android, Windows and and iPhone devices. Delta says it expects to have a BlackBerry version available in “early 2012.”

The mobile-device app comes after Delta launched online baggage tracking this past April. Delta also says it was the first U.S. airline to launch that capability.
