Dear Reader,
The American Academy of Pediatricians announced new guidelines for kids and online media. First, they threw out the no-screens-before-age-2 rule. Replacing it with a more nuanced rule. For babies younger than 18 months, no screens EXCEPT Facetime with extended family members. For 15 month to 2 years, screens should not be viewed alone, but only with a parent who is involved, treating the media as if it were a picture book being explored together.
For a more detailed look at the new recommendations, here’s an article and audio clip from NPR: American Academy Of Pediatrics Lifts ‘No Screens Under 2’ Rule.
See ya on the Net,

Bob Dylan, an iconic American folk musician and poet, was born Robert Zimmerman in 1941. In 1999, Dylan was included in Time Magazine’s TIME 100 list of the most important people of the 20th Century. In 2008, the Pulitzer Prize jury awarded Dylan a “special citation for his profound impact on popular music and American culture.” And recently, Dylan became the first musician to be awarded the Nobel Literature Prize.

New Yorker: Bob Dylan, the Beat Generation, and Allen Ginsberg's America
The New Yorker publishes an excerpt from the 2010 book “Bob Dylan in America,” by the historian Sean Wilentz. “Dylan’s continuing link to the Beat generation, though, came chiefly through his friend and sometime mentor Allen Ginsberg. Dylan’s link with Ginsberg dated back to the end of 1963, a pivotal moment in the lives and careers of both men.”
