President Addresses Students, Congress
 KGOU and NPR News will provide live coverage of President Obama's prime time address to a joint session of Congress on Wednesday, September 9. The President is expected to focus on his plans for the nation's health care system.
Melissa Block hosts the special, with analysis from NPR's Health Policy Correspondent, Julie Rovner. Coverage will begin at 7 p.m., and will include the president's address and a Republican response, if possible. Today, President Obama told schoolchildren to stay in school and study hard in a televised speech that had some conservatives questioning his motives. NPR.org has a report on the speech, and a transcript is available from the White House press office.

 When completed, the Interoceanic Highway will stretch across South America from the Atlantic to the Pacific, creating an overland trade route to Asia for economic giant Brazil. The last leg of the road is being finished now in Peru, but not without a great deal of controversy. Its route takes it right through the heart of the Peruvian Amazon - one of the most biodiverse places in the world. NPR's Lourdes Garcia-Navarro has a series of reports all next week on All Things Considered. For more photos and an interactive map, visit The Picture Show at NPR.org.
