The BugglesMTV becomes a twentysomething (its anniversary time…more coverage at USA Today and from Reuters) (The Guardian, reg. required)

- To all of the folks working anti-drug campaigns (just have teens watch "Intervention" on A&E. It had me in tears [real ones])

- Cutting doc needs funding (important documentary-in-progress on teens and self injury needs some dollars)

- Kids love to be grossed out ("Fear Factor" is still popular with kids 2-11. Plus the rest of this week's younger viewers ratings wrap up from Media Life Magazine)

- Old school (this is too funny - a list of actors who played teens in movies when they were in their 20s and 30s. I never knew Rizzo was 34!) (Usedwigs via PopCandy)

- Not enough room in the dorms (for all of the stuff college kids are bringing to campus) (Washington Post, reg. required)

- Life online (all in one deck from Pew) (Thanks Robin!)

- Just in case you missed it (and because the link I posted the other day was broken, check out the new Nature's Cure Podcast for teens — remember, these were the cats that bought ads on the teen podcast Emo Girl Talk. They have now decided to create their own.)
