    COLEMAN STATION - Don't mess with Dutchess County cows: you may end up bloody.

    An alleged drunken driver had to be taken to the hospital early today after he hit a cow on Route 22 in the Town of Northeast, the Dutchess County Sheriff's Office said.

    Craig Youmans Jr., 31, of Amenia was apparently going about 70 miles per hour near Smithfield Valley Road just before 1 a.m. when he spied the bovine in the roadway, police said.

    Youmans was unable to avoid the heifer, and wound up hitting the animal with his 2001 Silverado pick up truck before losing control and eventually striking a tree on the side of the road, police said.

    Youmans then allegedly fled, only to be found in a nearby barn, bleeding and with cuts on his face, police said.

    Youmans was charged with felony driving while intoxicated and was taken to Sharon Hospital for treatment.

    The cow did not require medical attention, police said.

    LOS ANGELES, California (AP) -- In a deal that some media executives called revolting, O.J. Simpson plans a book and TV interview to discuss how, hypothetically, he could have killed his ex-wife and her friend -- a story his publisher considers "his confession."

    Two weeks before the book, "If I Did It," goes on sale, scorn was already being heaped Wednesday on Simpson, the publisher and Fox, which plans to air the Simpson interview in two parts November 27 and 29.

    Denise Brown, sister of Simpson's slain ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, lashed out at the publisher for "promoting the wrongdoing of criminals" and commercializing abuse.

    Judith Regan, whose ReganBooks imprint is publishing the book, declined to reveal further details of the book's contents.

    "This is an historic case, and I consider this his confession," Regan told The Associated Press. She also refused to say what Simpson is being paid for the book but said he came to her with the idea.

    The former football star was acquitted in 1995 of murdering his ex-wife and her friend Ron Goldman after a trial that became an instant cultural flashpoint.

    He was later found liable for the deaths by in a civil wrongful-death suit filed by the Goldman family. In the years since, he has been mocked relentlessly by late-night comedians, particularly for his vow to hunt down the true killers.

    Simpson has failed to pay the $33.5 million judgment against him in the civil suit. His NFL pension and his Florida home cannot legally be seized. He and the families of the victims have wrangled over the money in court for years.

    Simpson and his attorney Yale Galanter did not immediately return calls for comment.

    Meanwhile, other publishers and publishing industry observers practically fell over each other to criticize ReganBooks, an imprint of HarperCollins Publishers, and Simpson himself.

    "This is not about being heard. This is about trying to cash in, in a pathetic way, on some notoriety," said Sara Nelson, editor in chief of Publishers Weekly. "That a person keeps wanting to bring this up seems almost nutty to me."

    Patricia Schroeder, president and chief executive of the American Association of Publishers, described the developments as sickening.

    "But I think it's going to stir an awful lot of debate and make the culture take a real look at itself, and that may not be unhealthy," she said.

    Indeed, one thing that seemed certain was that the book and interview -- which Fox will air at the end of the crucial sweeps month -- were bound to generate a torrent of publicity.

    Shari Anne Brill, a television analyst for the Madison Avenue firm Carat USA, predicted public interest would rival that of the 2003 interview with Michael Jackson, seen by 27 million people in 2003.

    At least one other network, NBC, said it had been approached to air the special but declined the offer.

    "This is not a project appropriate for our network," said Rebecca Marks, a spokeswoman for the entertainment division of NBC, a network that once employed Simpson as a football analyst.

    Representatives for CBS and ABC did not immediately return calls for comment.

    One expert noted that hhe justice system's protection against so-called double jeopardy means Simpson's book, explosive as it may be, should not expose him to any new legal danger.

    "He can write pretty much whatever he wants," said Laurie Levenson, a Loyola University law school professor and former federal prosecutor who has followed the case closely. "Unless he's confessing to killing somebody else, he can probably do this with impunity."

    Im glad alot of departments are letting younger firefighters step up to take charge.  Sadly though more times than not alot it seems like a ton of departments are run by a few " good ol boys" who are afraid of change

    I agree...it makes it even better when the older members stick around and help out...

    show up, know your people,dont diss any aspect of the company...(Younger crowd, Rescue squad, auxilary members). Someone that you can work with.

    10 years in the fire service. Interior firefighter / EMT. A company line officer for 2 or more years. Then think about the white hat.

    I can agree with that also certain classes they should have to attend...
