As part of their ongoing Stop the Texts. Stop the Wrecks. Texting and Driving Prevention campaign, the Ad Council and the U.S. Department of Transportation’s National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) are partnering with YouTube creator and actress Meg DeAngelis to raise awareness of this dangerous behavior. The collaboration also coincides with the release of new television campaign public service advertisements (PSAs) and the launch of Project Yellow Light, a national video contest and scholarship program that aims to educate young drivers on and generate engagement around this issue.
Meg is joining the effort as part of the Ad Council’s Creators for Good program by distributing new exclusive video content to her almost four million subscribers on YouTube. The video amplifies the campaign message, showing drivers that no matter how “safely” they think they can drive while doing other things, distracted driving is always dangerous. Created as an advice video, Meg runs through “10 Everyday Things You’re Doing Wrong” - from putting in bobby pins to folding your clothes - and ends with a serious message to her fans about the dangers of texting and driving.
“Texting and driving is such a serious issue, so I'm really proud to be a voice of this important campaign,” said DeAngelis. “I want all of my viewers to stay safe, so I hope that together, we can spread the word on the dangers of distracted driving.”

A new Obama administration regulation–the so-called Stream Protection Rule–is about to drive up energy costs and unemployment with no gain in environmental benefits, cautions the National Mining Association.
“The primary motive of this regulation is not to protect streams, as its title would suggest, but to protect federal regulators' jobs at the expense of coal miners' jobs as the nation's energy providers,” said Luke Popovich, vice president of communications for the National Mining Association.
In a classic example of needless regulation, the U.S. Office of Surface Mining, or OSM, plans to change more than 475 regulations, as well as add more new rules – despite no demonstrated need. OSM has crafted the rule behind closed doors, Popovich said, shutting cooperating states out of discussions about the purpose and content of the regulation.
The new rule carries a heavy economic price tag, Popovich warned. He pointed to an analysis by an independent consultant that found that OSM’s rule would put more than 268,000 mining and dependent jobs at risk—adding to the 40,000 high-wage jobs already lost in the industry.

What can I say about this one that I haven't said before? ....... "SCOOBY DOOBY DOO DOOWAH" ..... I don't think that I've ever said that before on any of my prior songs ..... Maybe I said "Zippity Doo Da" or "Yabba Dabba Doo." ...... What I did do this time was to sneakily rip a vocal line off of a marvelous singer going by the name of Isabella Peter Blue "No relationship to Little Boy Blue" and inserted her voice into this song ..... A little extra sugar and spice for this new cake that I baked. You can check her out at https://www.youtube.com/user/isaanabella/videos
Lyrics
When I was a little child, the other children put me down.
They always used to laugh at me and never let me hang around.
But then one day my Grandma taught me some very simple words to say
and now I say them night and day and I say them every time I play. I say
Scooby Dooby Doo Doowah. Scooby Dooby YEA
Scooby Dooby Doowah. Shooby Dooby Doowah. Scooby Dooby night and day.
Scooby Dooby Doo Doowah. Scooby Dooby YEA
Scooby Dooby Doowah. Shooby Dooby Doowah. Scooby Dooby night and day.
And so my Grandma said to me to scurry outside and play.
The other children saw me coming so they turned around to run away.
But then I thought about these words that Grandma had sang to me.
The other children turned around and they came back running to me as they sang
Scooby Dooby Doo Doowah. Scooby Dooby YEA
Scooby Dooby Doowah. Shooby Dooby Doowah. Scooby Dooby night and day.
Scooby Dooby Doo Doowah. Scooby Dooby YEA
Scooby Dooby Doowah. Shooby Dooby Doowah. Scooby Dooby night and day.
You don't need no distractions. You don't need no delays
to get some satisfaction and to Scooby Dooby Doo all day.
You don't need no permission to Scooby night and day
just follow me and Scooby Dooby every day and I say
Scooby Dooby Doo Doowah. Scooby Dooby YEA
Scooby Dooby Doowah. Shooby Dooby Doowah. Scooby Dooby night and day.
Scooby Dooby Doo Doowah. Scooby Dooby YEA
Scooby Dooby Doowah. Shooby Dooby Doowah. Scooby Dooby night and day.
