Teachers Covering the Solar System?
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Hi all, we are working on a story about Pluto’s downgrade to “dwarf planet.” Bridget Gutierrez is looking for teachers currently teaching the solar system. If you know anyone who fits the bill - public and private school teachers welcome - please e-mail me at pghezzi@ajc.com.

How Heavy is That Backpack?
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
A PR person called to tell me she was sending over a release about backback safety. I haven’t gotten the release yet, but I thought I would go ahead and post on the subject. Remember a few years back when those suitcase-style backpacks with wheels were all the rage? Parents said their children used them because heavy backpacks were weighing them down, potentially causing back and shoulder problems.
Is your child’s backpack too heavy? Does your child bring home more books than the homework assignment requires? Or is your child’s backpack mysteriously void of books?
