Commerce general practitioner Dr. Rick Selvaggisays, when seeking online medical information, government, or "dot-gov," sites, tend to have the most up-to-date information.  He cites a recent study on information related to sudden infant death syndrome, or SIDS.  Libraries tend to have access to data bases that are more detailed than what's available on most web sites, Dr. Rick says.

John Mark Dempsey is the host of the public interest program The Blacklands Café from KETR News. Dempsey is also the play-by-play announcer for Commerce Tigers Football on 88.9 FM and on ketr.org.
