You are welcome but this is not her show’s site. Is Betty White’s new show an April Fool’s Day prank? Judging by the European version, it wouldn’t be very complimentary but ageist.

I’m not sure what human decade she is. I noticed in the video that she has teeth. Too bad she only gets salmon once a year, but the Kuskokwim River is rather far away (and at the opposite time of year).
Australia’s oldest bear has celebrated its 32nd birthday.
Bethel the kodiak [sic] bear also has the distinction of being one of the oldest of its species in the world.
It’s become a birthday ritual that never fails to delight the grand old dame of Taronga Zoo.
“She was bashing at the door as soon as she could smell that salmon coming in,” said zookeeper Deb Olsen.
“She knows that it’s a special day when she sees the big salmon there.”
I noticed while reading up on Bethel’s birthday bash that the Australian Broadcasting Company (ABC) has a tag or category for news feeds called aged-care. Click on the ink below to add it to your news reader.

I was wondering if anyone else * noticed the impact of the negative conditions in rural Alaska affecting older people? especially if this means older people have to move to Anchorage or Fairbanks. This topic came up recently among the groups that need to be (or should be) prepared to assist those folks, despite Gov. Palin’s and the Republican’s inaction.
If you know of someone else that can give a feel or better yet, actual numbers or examples, please ask them. Post your results in comments below or e-mail me.
