JOURNALISM
Brokaw to report on reactions to crisis
BY DAVID BAUDER
Associated Press
NEW YORK — NBC's Tom Brokaw never claimed he was retiring when he left "Nightly News" after the 2004 election. He's almost visible on TV as he was before.
He'll even get behind the wheel every now and then.
Brokaw has signed on for a USA network project that will have him traveling along U.S. Highway 50 in the coming months, reporting on the economic crisis and Americans' reaction to the first year of President Barack Obama's administration.
This is after filling in on NBC's "Meet the Press" for half of last year following Tim Rusert's death, and frequently appearing alongside
However, Brokaw, 69, said he's careful to make sure his schedule isn't all work and no play. This year he's been hunting, skiing and fishing, and he just returned from a bike-riding trip to South Africa.
"What I've learned is it's pretty hard to shift my motor into a lower gear," Brokaw said.
"My generation — all of my friends — we've been in touch with each other and we've kind of made this unspoken pledge, that the best way to stay alive is to stay alive," he said.

Brokaw won't be on the trip the entire time, but said he's looking forward to driving part of it.

You're not fond of criticism, even the constructive kind. Be patient with a person who wants you to push a little harder. You can, you know. Get motivated instead of getting mad.
You're making a good impression. People admire your work. You're inspiring them to try things they haven't done. You're making it look easy. You're gaining respect.

Discuss the situation with your best advisors now. They'll be in the mood to talk, and they'll have good things to say. This doesn't end the controversy, but it lets you know who's standing where.

Today is a 6.
Go ahead and indulge in something that adds warmth to your home. You can afford it, especially if you can find it on sale. Odds are in your favor, so full speed ahead. Check out the local ads.

It sure makes a big difference when you have enough in the bank (and the bank stays solvent). You can do a whole lot with just a little extra. Update your tools and become even more efficient.

Discuss a topic that has you upset with friends and associates. They can help you regain your objectivity to make a wise choice. Don't be motivated just by emotion; analyze the situation.
Travel beckons, but leaving now could be rather complicated. Something about the tinerary is most likely to change, or simply be deleted. If you have to go right this minute, be flexible.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Talk to your boss about that raise, or put in for a better job. It never hurts to do both, actually. If the boss doesn't come through at your present location, you can accept a better offer.
Dig through your stack of stuff to find all your coupons and rebates. Take advantage of the manufacturer's attempt to keep from going out of business. Every cloud has a silver lining.

TELEVISION Chris Brown withdraws from Kid's Choice Awards
NEW YORK — There won't be any awkward Chris Brown moments at the Kids' Choice Awards — the embattled pop star has withdrawn his name from the ballot.
Brown had been nominated for favorite male singer and favorite song for "Kiss Kiss" at the March 28 awards show on Nickelodeon.
The nominations came shortly before his arrest for allegedly attacking girlfriend and fellow pop star Rihanna.
The network said in a statement that it agrees with and respects his decision to bow out.
A petition had been circulated to take his name off the ballot, but Nickelodeon said yesterday he was still on. On Wednesday, Brown decided to take his name out of consideration.
In a statement, his representatives said while Brown would like to speak directly to his fans, he can't because of his criminal case. He thanked his fans for their support.
