NPR's All Thing's Considered

In China, Creating A Menagerie Through Mimicry

Professional mimics in China used to imitate sounds as a form of entertainment. Not many practitioners are left, but one family is trying to preserve the art. Cheng Jiaqiang, who learned his skills from his grandfather, has a barnyard repertoire but specializes in bird songs.

Black Radio Fights The Performance Tax

New legislation in Congress could drastically change music-industry economics. Musicians in the U.S. are not paid when their songs are played on the radio unless they wrote the songs, too. Only songwriters get radio royalties. Cathy Hughes of Radio One is leading the fight against the performance tax.

Safe Driving For Seniors: Officials Get Creative

A University of Florida study predicts that within 15 years, 1 in 4 drivers in the U.S. will be age 65 and older. As they age, seniors may be less safe on the roads, so state and university officials and the AARP are putting together programs to help seniors drive better — and in some cases, get them off the roads.

At Gaza Zoo, The Wild Things Return

Almost a year after Israel's offensive against Hamas militants in the Gaza Strip, the coastal enclave is still struggling to recover. Most animals at the Gaza Zoo died during the fighting. Now, with the help of animal smugglers, the zoo is trying to rebuild.

Golden State Highways Are A California Nightmare

California roads once were the envy of the world. But like a lot of things in the Golden State these days, they’re not what they used to be.

News Corp., Microsoft Weigh Tie-Up

News Corp. and Microsoft are working on a deal that might take News Corp. content off of Google and put it exclusively on Bing, Microsoft's search engine. That means that if you do a Google search, content from a News Corp. outlet, such as The Wall Street Journal or Fox News, would not show up. You would have to use Bing to find it.
