TALKERS' TALK: Mark Christopher is out and John Brown is in on the noon to 3 p.m. show on KTRS-AM. Christopher was last heard on the air Tuesday.

HANGING AT LUMIÃ?RE: PGA superstar Vijay Singh weathered Thursday's storm at Lumiere Place, enjoying lunch at Asia before trying his luck on the casino floor. Actor Kevin Spacey was recently spotted at the casino, where he stopped in to get a caffeine fix at the new Peet's Coffee & Tea. Disney's teen hunks, the Jonas Brothers, walked the casino's main promenade when they performed here; and so did the ageless Bruce Springsteen after his Scottrade concert. "American Idol's" David Cook hit the blackjack table when he was in town, and an ESPN crew was spotted tagging alongside Lumiere's poker room regular, Dennis Phillips, who is also the 2008 World Series of Poker chip leader. The feature on Phillips is set to air in the fall during the poker finals on the network.

SCIENCE TIME: Ashley Greenwell, a senior at St. Joseph's Academy, has placed third in a national high school competition sponsored by the American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers.

Greenwell got the award and a $1,000 prize for her entry. Louis Teng, of Rockville, Md., took first-place honors and won $4,000; Shruti Shrivastav, a junior at Moreau Catholic High School in Hayward, Calif., came in second place and won $2,000.

TRACK TRUCKIN': Pedal-to-the-metal Chrissy Wallace and a slew of locals will be taking in the action of the NASCAR Craftsman Truck race on Saturday at Gateway International Raceway.

Wallace's Germain Racing teammate, Justin Marks -- he's driving the 9 truck, she's driving the 03 truck -- was born in St. Louis. Wallace and Marks will compete against the No. 63 entry fielded by the Mittler Brothers, whose raceshop is in Wright City. The 1:30 p.m. race can be seen on Cable TV's SPEED channel.
