Prince Harry's recent nude photo scandal may seem like a media disaster for the young prince, but one royal expert thinks it will actually work in his favor.
"Nobody goes to Vegas for a holiday – they go there to have a good time. And he sure knows how to have a good time!" royal biographer and Majesty Editor-in-Chief, Ingrid Seward, tells PEOPLE. "I think that's what people love about Harry."
Although the nude photos from Harry's trip to Las Vegas are said to have been taken during a harmless strip billiard game among friends, the 27-year-old has been scrutinized for more serious gaffes in the past.
Dai Davis, the former head of royal protection services at the Metropolitan Police, says the incident is not to be taken lightly.
"He could have the pick of females but he shouldn't be doing it in a strange place with strange women as the consequences could be enormous," Davis says.
"A guest of a royal is the guest of a royal. You can't stick them against the wall and frisk them for a camera. Everyone has a phone these days and it is very unlikely that they would have been searched," he adds.
But Harry's antics are just part of his personality, Seward insists.
"People see him as a bit of a lovable rogue. He embraces life with both hands and people love that," Seward says. "Of course there [are] people who think – quite rightly – that he has got a life of great privilege and he should take responsibility. But he is the guy who is the hero of Afghanistan and an Apache-trained pilot, so he is very glamorous and he does a few crazy things that we can all relate to."
While Harry's nude jaunt may be overlooked by the general public, there could be consequences from the British Army and his family.
"He might get into trouble for bringing his regiment into disrepute. He is a paid, serving officer after all. The army likes them to blow off steam but not to be idiotic. Harry is answerable to his commanding officer if he believes he has brought the regiment into disrepute and the head of the armed forces into disrepute – which is, of course, his grandmother," says Seward.
"If anyone has a word with him it might be Prince Philip. And if he has to apologize to anyone it is likely to be his father," she adds.
But for now Harry may just be suffering from embarrassment.
"He is a young man having a good time and it has really endeared him to people and not done him any damage. But I think he may be very embarrassed," Seward says. "His bodyguards weren't guarding that body very well, were they?"

EAST LIVERPOOL - A McKee Street man was arrested early Tuesday morning after an observant police officer reportedly found him inside a closed St. Clair Avenue business.
Officers were called to the Wash N Dry Laundromat at 1:34 a.m. for what sounded like pounding inside, but after finding the building secure, no doors unlocked or windows broken and no one around, they cleared the scene.
About five minutes later, Patrolman Kelsey Hedrick decided to drive by again with his cruiser lights off and saw a man inside, dressed in dark clothing and wearing a mask.
Thinking the man must have gone in the side door, Hedrick ran back there but found it still locked. He ran around and looked in the window and no longer saw the man but saw broken light bulbs on the floor and thought of the roof.
He ran around to the rear of the building and found the man - later identified as Randy S. Ammon, 37 - on the roof, and ordered him down at gunpoint. Ammon backed out of sight while other officers, including those from St. Clair Township, arrived on the scene and began covering all parts of the building's exterior.
Ammon then surrendered to officers and climbed down a tree at the rear of the building and was taken into custody.
According to police, he was wearing gloves and had a toboggan hat with a headlight attached stuffed down the front of his pants. They also reported finding a hammer laying on the ground where he had climbed down.
The fire department responded with a ladder truck to allow Hedrick access to the roof to check for anyone else, but no one was found, although a large hole was found and believed to be Ammon's point of entry.
Once the owner arrived, he allowed officers inside, where they found a screwdriver sticking out of the change machine, a spud bar leaning against a washing machine and a piece of wood used for smashing out the lights laying on the floor.
Hinge pins had been removed from an interior door to gain entry once inside the building, according to police.
Ammon was charged with felony breaking and entering, with additional charges of possessing criminal tools possibly to be served through the grand jury.
Chief John Lane commended Hedrick for the arrest, saying, "He did an excellent job" by being diligent and returning to the business to check it again.
Ammon appeared Tuesday in Municipal Court on the breaking and entering charge, where a preliminary hearing was scheduled for Dec. 6. His cash/surety bond was set at $7,500. He also was fined $75 for driving under suspension and $30 for a seat belt charge from an unrelated incident.

When an increasing number of his patients couldn't pay for their life-changing surgeries, Dr. Andrew Moore decided he wasn't going to just stand by or send them away without doing anything.
So he found a way to make the procedures completely free of charge.
The Lexington, Kentucky-based plastic surgeon initially started waiving his fees for some patients, but soon found that wasn't reaching far enough. He grew disheartened every time a patient told him he couldn't afford to have a melanoma removed because he had no insurance. "It was so frustrating," says Moore, 63. "How was I going to take care of them?"
"We figured out the things we needed to do to make this work," says Moore. "It makes a difference in individual lives."
In 2005 the doctor launched Surgery on Sunday, a nonprofit group of more than 400 volunteer surgeons, nurses and medical professionals who perform free gall bladder removals, orthopedic repairs and other outpatient procedures in a donated surgical facility in Lexington.
To date, Moore's group has performed about 4,500 surgeries – and has a waiting list of more than 500. The program has also spawned offshoots in Louisville and three other Lexington hospitals, with the hope to expand nationwide.
Raising funds through grants and donations to cover malpractice insurance and medical supplies, Moore's band of medical good Samaritans has changed the lives of people like Michael Weyls, who lived in pain and terror after being diagnosed with a cancerous lesion he couldn't afford to have removed.
A doctor he knew referred him to Surgery on Sunday; Moore performed three surgeries and rebuilt Weyls's nose. "It could've killed me, and Dr. Moore worked a miracle," says Weyls. "I thank God for this man."

Frequently Asked Questions
Thank You Gifts
Vehicle Donations
Donor List Policy
PLEASE NOTE: WQED is in the process of converting to an all-new member relationship management system to better serve the needs of our members and audience. Due to this transition, member issues may temporarily take a little longer to resolve. Thank you so much for your patience and support.
How do I know which type of membership is right for me?
WQED Multimedia offers many different types of membership so that we can meet the needs of our diverse audience. For more information on the different types of membership, please refer to the Support WQED page or call our Donor & Audience Services line at 412-622-1370 or 1-888-622-1370. We would be happy to help you select the right program.
When does my membership begin and end?
Your membership is current for one year after your payment is processed. If your payment is processed mid-month, then your membership will begin on the first day of the following month. For example, if your payment is received in mid-February, then your membership will begin on March 1st and last for one year. You will receive a reminder in the mail before your membership expires.
What does my membership include?
For information about your specific level of membership, please visit our Support WQED page.
Is my membership information shared with other entities?
Please refer to our Membership List Policy.
Why do WQED TV and Classical QED 89.3 have membership drives?
WQED Multimedia relies on the support of our members to help accomplish our mission. Our membership drives help build community support by offering diverse programs that allow our viewing audience to participate by becoming a member. Membership accounts for 30 percent of WQED Multimedia's income, and membership drives are one of the most effective methods of raising funds by acquiring new members and renewing existing supporters.
I still have several months left on my membership. Why am I receiving renewal notices?
Because it is so important for us to keep you as a member of the WQED family, we start sending out reminders before your membership expires.
The programming schedule has changed due to a membership drive. When will my program be back on at its regular time?
Please refer to your program guide or consult the television and radio listings on our website to see when your program will air again. You may also contact Donor & Audience Services for assistance by calling 1-888-622-1370 or 412-622-1370.
Where is my MemberCard located?
The WQED MemberCard is located in the top left hand corner of your acknowledgement letter. Simply bend and peel back to remove.
I have never used my credit card on the Internet before. How does it work? Is it safe?
WQED Multimedia uses the best security and encryption technology available for your protection. The personal and financial information that your computer sends us, and the information that we send back to your computer, is encrypted while in transit. Encrypted files are scrambled and can only be reassembled and used by the sender and the recipient. This means that when you send your personal and financial information to WQED, it is encrypted so that no one but us can decipher it. Your credit card number is never stored unencrypted on our server, and it is only decrypted at the time of its use.
I just sent my renewal check. Why did I receive a renewal notice?
In order to limit expenses, we print and send out renewal notices in bulk. This means that it takes several weeks for a renewal letter to get to you. As a result, your renewal gift and our letter may have crossed in the mail. We will send an acknowledgment letter to let you know when your check has been processed, but if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Donor & Audience Services at 412-622-1370 or 1-888-622-1370.
How long does it take to receive my membership 'thank you' gift?
On average you will receive you gift six to eight weeks after your pledge has been paid in full. All tickets and trip itineraries are printed and mailed approximately two weeks before the date of the show or event.
An on-air fundraising drive just ended, but I was not able to contribute at that time. Am I still able to choose a 'thank you' gift that was offered during that time?
Yes, you can call one of our Donor & Audience Services Representatives at 412-622-1370 or 1-888-622-1370 and pledge for a thank you item any time.
I just found that I can buy my 'thank you' gift elsewhere for a lower price. Can I get a refund?
WQED Multimedia is 501(c)3 nonprofit organization. All gifts made to WQED are considered charitable donations. The 'thank you' gifts advertised during our on-air fundraising drives are simply our way of showing our appreciation for your support.
I bought a CD/DVD/VHS from you during a membership drive. Why are you referring to my purchase as a donation?
If you called during a television or radio on-air membership drive and made a 'pledge' of support in order to receive a 'thank you' gift, you have made a charitable contribution to WQED Multimedia and are therefore a member. The item(s) you receive are our way of saying 'thank you' for your generous support.
How can I find out where my seats are located?
For the majority of ticketed events, the tickets are provided through a third party and are not generated by WQED. The date and time of your pledge is given to the venue and tickets are issued in the order that pledges were received.
I pledged for tickets over a month ago, where are my tickets?
Your tickets will be mailed from the venue approximately two weeks before the date of the show. We do not know the location of your seat until the venue sends us the confirmation list [after all tickets have been mailed].
Can I get a refund on my tickets?
WQED is unable to offer refunds on tickets.
Why does my ticket pledge have to be on a credit card?
There are a limited number of tickets to any given event. In order to be fair to our supporters, tickets are given on a first come, first served basis, and payments must be guaranteed in order to reserve your ticket(s). Pledging on a credit card allows your payment to be processed immediately, thereby guaranteeing your payment and reserving your ticket.
Why Donate?
There are several great reasons, like:
- You don't want to worry about selling your vehicle.
- It is too expensive to repair your vehicle.
- Your vehicle won't pass emissions.
- You don't trust your car to be safe on the road.
- You need a tax write-off.
But the most important reason is that your donation will help us continue to provide the quality educational, cultural and informational programs and services that enhance and engage our community.
Does my car have to be running?
Not always. It does have to have an engine and be towable. It varies from state to state and depends upon the year, make, and model of the vehicle. Sometimes if the cost to transport a vehicle will cost more than what it will bring at auction, it may be declined. Call our toll free line (855-700-9733) to find out if your vehicle qualifies.
Does my car have to be registered?
No, but you must be the legal titleholder.
What if I lost the title?
You must obtain the title prior to donating it. Contact your local DMV to obtain a duplicate title.
Where do I sign my title?
Our driver will instruct you of the proper place to sign your title. You may have to sign a power of attorney authorizing us to transfer it. Our driver will let you know what is required or call our toll free number (855-700-9733) to speak with our representative.
What kind of paperwork will I receive?
You will receive a tow receipt when the vehicle is picked up. Thirty days after the vehicle is sold, you will receive an acknowledgement. If your vehicle sells for OVER $500 you will receive IRS Form 1098 B & C.
How much can I take for my donation?
Effective 2005, if the value of the vehicle is over $500, the taxpayer is limited to deduct the amount for which the vehicle sold. In such a case you will receive a Form 1098 B & C within 30 days of sale. If the vehicle sells for under $500 you will not receive IRS forms as you are not required to file them for vehicle donations up to $500. Please consult your tax advisor to determine your benefit or for additional information, visit the IRS website (.pdf).
What will happen to my vehicle?
Your vehicle will be picked up by one of our courteous drivers and sold at auction. Cars are usually sold within 30 days of pick up. Some vehicles may take longer.
Is there a tow fee?
No. If you are out of our towing range, we can offer you the option to drop the vehicle off at our auction house at your convenience.
Are all cars sold at auction?
No. Occasionally, cars that are donated do not sell at auction. In those cases, the vehicles are sold for scrap metal.
Will I be notified when it sells?
Yes. If the vehicle sells for over $500 you will receive IRS Form 1098 B & C. If not, you will simply receive an acknowledgement as required by the IRS.
How soon can my vehicle be picked up?
Vehicles are picked up at a time that is convenient for you. Our representative will take all pertinent information regarding your donation, and forward it to our tow company. They will call you within 24 hours to set up an appointment. If you have not been called within 24 hours, please call (855-700-9733).
What vehicles do you accept?
We take cars, boats (if they are on a trailer), motor homes, trucks, motorcycles (if they are operational), farm equipment, and recreational vehicles such as snowmobiles, jet ski, etc.) Call our representative to find out if your vehicle qualifies.
How do I get started?
Your support begins when you call* us at 855-700-9733. (*Note) Before calling, please have the following information ready:
- Your title and lien release in hand.
- The year, make, and model of your vehicle.
- The general condition of the vehicle.
- Your vehicle identification number (VIN). This 17-digit number can be found on your title, insurance policy, or on your car.
- Your Social Security Number (required by IRS).
WQED sometimes provides donors' names and addresses to other entities. If you inform us that you do not want your information provided to others, we will not do so. You may change your preference at any time by contacting WQED's Membership Department at 412-622-1370 or by email at firstname.lastname@example.com to request a "no rental or exchange" designation. WQED does not sell, rent, transfer, provide or exchange its membership list with any political party, political committee, candidate for political office, or political lobbying organization.
How do I submit or receive a recipe for/from a cookbook?
Please visit QED Cooks on our website. There is a section to submit recipes, as well as a recipe library for your use.
Was that telemarketing call legitimate?
WQED Multimedia does occasionally use an outside company to make calls to our members. These callers will always identify themselves as a company calling on our behalf.
I am a supporter of WQED Multimedia and the company that I work for will match all or some of my charitable contributions. Does WQED have a form to send me so my company can match my gift?
Matching gifts are an excellent way to increase the impact of your gift. Check with your Human Resources department to obtain a form. Simply send your completed form to us to the address below and we'll take care of the rest.

Did John D. Rockefeller start out from nothing? Or did he recieve help along the way from government intervention?
Looks to me like he never got anything but crap from the government. Wikipedia article made me laugh, check out this quote by his father: "I cheat my boys every chance I get. I want to make 'em sharp."
Well, I'm trying to find out the truth. There seem to be alot of lies about history from the state and other sources.
And it seems like, the powers that be want us to believe the story went like this:
rockefeller, morgan and carnegie got rich, honestly, using the free market. But, the free market, had some shortcomings, so government came in and fixed them.
but the truth feels like rockefeller, etc got rich using government intervention.
and the powers that be want to confuse everyone, so instead, they say they got rich off the free market, but they still did it in a bad way.
it leaves everyone really confused.
I'm starting to believe it may be impossible to become a huge multimillionaire in a pure free market. but to confuse everyone, lets say thats the only way to become a multimillionmaire AND government will do its best to prevent that unfairness.
this leaves everyone confused.
if, we could find the truth on how Rockefeller, Morgan and Carnegie really made their money, this would lessen the confusion. Specifially, early on in their careers. Specifically, Rockefeller, since it is said, he built his empire from nothing...unlike Morgan, who came from the House of Morgan.
Theory only goes so far with people. We need examples. Rockefeller, Morgan and Carnegie are the powers that be example of free market being bad. But, if the truth is that these men made their money, even from the begining by using government to help them, then, their whole story they are trying to feed everyone (ex. Men Who Built America) is destroyed and seen for what it is. Lies.
I don't see Rockefeller as that kind of lesson at all. If anything, it looks to me like he was too "sharp" for his competition. Bad on them.
vanderbilt created rockefeller. Then rockefeller turned into a beast and went over vanderbilt. of course vanderbilt was subsidized to build railroads and shipping (im just assuming all railroads were subsidized back then, thus creating the over expansion of the railroads and the recession)
*ill go into a little more detail. Vanderbilt wanted exclusive rights to someone to fill his railroads with oil. There was a lot of competition and vanderbilt felt if he could get a small business owner to have an exclusive agreeement then he would win. So vandy looked for who he thought had the potential to fill his railroads.
I don't know about Vanderbilt making Rockefeller (haven't read that).
From what I understand, SO was a primarily free-market company. I did read mentions of their patents being quite important, but I doubt we'll ever be able to know exactly how important. The tariff also might have helped them control US markets.
See here for info on SO:
"The tariff also might have helped them control US markets."
Why? The tariff should have helped all American oil companies, not just standard oil, right?
If you create an oil company and start pumping oil out of the ground and selling it and making alot of money, then wouldn't others do the same?
IN a free market, you cannot stop others from doing that, can you? Did Rockefeller somehow stop others from pumping oil out of the ground? Did he stop others from buying land and pumping oil out of it?
rockefeller dropped oil prices by over 300% in about 20 years. He also was privileged to the economy of scales since he owned so much. smaller businesses cant compete because rockefeller wasnt charging a max price, he was charging the lowest price that he believed the most people would buy at.
If you are looking for something on rockefeller in terms of government intervention, im positive he had TONS of patents, but i dont know if that had anything to do with it in the 1800s. It certainly played a major part in the 1900s though.
if one can buy and sell land without homesteading the land, that sounds like help from the government.
This is mostly about Vanderbilt, but also mentions that SO was built to 65% of the worlds oil market with no subsidies.
I speculate that companies significantly subsidized early on will ride the easy money and never be efficient enough to keep a major market share. But companies that are efficient enoughto take a large market share then come under the eye of government, then collude to protect themselves and end up using government to their benefit.
Cab21 - SO bought land from other owners. Typically on very good terms, too.
Those "Robber Barons" are wonderful examples of the free market - which is exactly why statists do everything in their power to discredit them by comparing them to someone in poverty at the time and asking why they couldn't just pay them more, or give them a job, etc. Vanderbilt is an excellent example of someone building roads without government. Rockefeller significantly reduced the price of oil for everyone. Ford built affordable cars and paid his workers high wages in return for their superior abilities. (Those high wages took on a whole other myth, that of wages "enough to buy back the product" which I will not get into).
haha ford didnt employ superior humans! He reinvented automobile production making it much more efficient. Thus the wage increase was due to capital goods making the employee more productive.
If he is the one who improved production, he was, at least at the time where he was paying his workers the highest wages, a monopolist on this improved production. In other words, there was no bidding process where companies bid up employees because of the value they add. If Ford's employees were no better than Joe Shmoe's employees, we would have to assume that Ford would try to pay them as much, or maybe a little more, as Joe Shmoe, but not much more because then he's losing money for no reason. On the other hand, because he was the only one paying these high wages I am guessing that that is for some other reason besides altruism. That reason is that a higher wage attracts the best workers.
the rockefellers donated land to the government for national parks, so that shows buying and selling unused land where noone has homesteaded anything.
If Ford's employees were no better than Joe Shmoe's employees, we would have to assume that Ford would try to pay them as much, or maybe a little more, as Joe Shmoe, but not much more because then he's losing money for no reason.
If Ford's employees were no better than Joe Shmoe's employees, we would have to assume that Ford would try to pay them as much, or maybe a little more, as Joe Shmoe, but not much more because then he's losing money for no reason.
Actually, I think that Ford's employees were significantly better paid than the employees of competing companies (According to my macro text).
"Those "Robber Barons" are wonderful examples of the free market
What if that is not true.
What if these devils, always take lies and mix in some truth to confuse people.
What if the truth is Rockefeller, Morgan, etc are sleezy and used unlawful things (including government) to build their empires and wipe out their compeition.
And what if the lie is that they used the free market to build their empires.
So, to confuse everyone and take control of both sides of the argument, lets take some truth....they were sleezy and mix in some lies, they used the free market to build their empires and wipe out their competition.
Now, all of a sudden, people are too busy taking sides, to look at the whole truth. They bicker over pieces of truth and lies.
If Ford's employees were no better than Joe Shmoe's employees, we would have to assume that Ford would try to pay them as much, or maybe a little more, as Joe Shmoe, but not much more because then he's losing money for no reason.
Actually, I think that Ford's employees were significantly better paid than the employees of competing companies (According to my macro text).
Right, they were, so my point was that he must have had some reason for paying them so much, and I think the reason that makes the most sense is that he wanted the best workers available.
Or there is the theory of efficient wages (I don't mean supply and demand).

I am not thrilled with the circumstances, but have to honestly say that this happened much more smoothly that I had imagined. We didn't have "one last nursing session" to cherish as I didn't know that last time in bed would be it. But, just as our entire nursing relationship was peaceful and natural, I feel that we did the same going out. Emotionally, I was ready. And as I look at my little boy- oh, he's turned into such a little boy... he was ready, too.

This kind of made me weepy. What a tribute to your relationship. Beautiful.ReplyDelete
That's how it should be...natural and easy. I know it can be emotional, but soon there will be another one needing his mommy all hours of the day. And so it continues. I hope you're feeling better, Steph. I've been thinking of you, knowing you've been feeling so bad, and hoping you're coming 'round the bend a bit. Hang in there!ReplyDelete
Awww. I'm glad that it worked out for both of you the way that it should, peacefully, naturally. And you'll have a nice little Boo break before the next comes along (and we WILL do nursing pics this time!)ReplyDelete
Im glad it went well.. they do grow so fast. when the new babe comes we got to give you a new header ;-)ReplyDelete
OOPS! I just re-read what I wrote and realized I said, "HIS mommy!" I meant to say his OR hers. : ) A little slip of the tongue there.ReplyDelete
I'm glad it was easy for you. I didn't get this far with my daughter and I'm wondering how it will be with my son. My mom asked the other day if I am ready to wean. I said no. She said the baby might be ready. But I gotta tell you he still wants his mama. Just for a quick nip before bedtime, for a few minutes when I get home from work.ReplyDelete
He can fall asleep on his own when someone else puts him down, but if I'm home, he likes to snuggle in to me for a few minutes. I think it's quiet time and alone time that he doesn't get because of his rowdy sister.
I have stopped pumping at work in the last few weeks. Never liked doing it. Some days I'm achy by lunchtime. I keeping my pump there just in case.
I didn't know you could nurse when you were pregnant. Wow, I learn so much from you!ReplyDelete
Glad it went well. It sounds like you were both readyA!
I didn't know you could nurse when you were pregnant. Wow, I learn so much from you!ReplyDelete
Glad it went well. It sounds like you were both readyA!
awww, big hugs steph! it sounds like a nice, gentle weaning and that is what all mamas wish for, right! :) i am glad it went so well.ReplyDelete
and yes, how do they just turn into little boys in an instant??!!
Aidan weaned the same way. I wasn't deliberately having a last nursing session or anything, and then he was done. I felt saddened that I didn't stop to treasure it more, but then peacefulness took over. I'd rather have it transition that smoothly, than have it stand out more because we weren't in agreement or ready to end it, kwim?ReplyDelete
Thank God snuggling never has to end, right? Now you can find a new way for the two of you to enjoy your time together. And heck! I'd be out shopping for fun NON-nursing bras to wear. You know, until a few more months when you need them again. ;)
I am glad you are at ease with this big step! I am sure being sick has not made it easy on you or your body to keep up with the demands of a nursing child.ReplyDelete
I am not sure if this has anything to do with it or not ( I just found your blog and have not had a chance to catch up), but I have heard that many babies do not like the taste of breastmilk from a mom who is pregnant. I have heard it changes the flavor of the milk.
Oh so sweet...this post brought tears to my eyes. I hope that my breastfeeding relationship ends with my daughter just as smoothly and gently...ReplyDelete
Hon, that is lovely. Bittersweet, as is every new stage with parenthood. I'm glad for you both that it was peaceful and not traumatic. All of my nursing endings have been traumatic... It pains me...ReplyDelete
Very nice that it ended so peacefully... but there is a possibility that he will ask to nurse again when the milk fairy blesses you!ReplyDelete
Have you ever tandem nursed? I did with the last 3 and it's got benefits to be sure, but it's hard at times.
I dunno. Xander went 1 week in between nursing sessions at the very end of his nursing season. He did that 3 or 4 weeks in a row...so you may get the one last nursing session before it's over. Either way, you will have awesome memories of nursing him, esp since you have pics! You are a great mom! Hope you are feeling better soon.ReplyDelete
Bittersweet.... but what a blessing that he nursed for so long!ReplyDelete
This comment has been removed by the author.ReplyDelete
Oh, it makes me teary. So bittersweet.ReplyDelete
I only hope that when our "time" comes for this it's as beautiful as yours was - He's one lucky boy to have a mama like you!ReplyDelete
A very blessed little boy. So glad it was smooth.ReplyDelete
Funny how those "big moments" can be so small and sudden.
Hope this morning sickness leaves you soon.
Peaceful and natural. That's what I hope for me and my daughter. Thank you for sharing the benefits of exteneded breastfeeding on your blog. It has given me courage to be bold in spite of my mother's comments. Hugs.ReplyDelete
A little bittersweet, no? Glad it was time for both of you and that it was a gentle transition. :)ReplyDelete
I'm glad it went so smoothly. I hope you're feeling better.ReplyDelete
how sweet and lovely! I am glad it went smoothly too.ReplyDelete
I totally feel your pain Steph. Weaning Miller was so hard and sad. We hadnt planned on anymore babies so this was it...that last session I just cried....he called it ta ta...I remember Scott saying you can keep nursing honey as long as you want too. I weaned Miller at 14 months....one of the hardest things....I'm sending you hugs.ReplyDelete
That made me kind of sad. I remember the last few times I nursed Landen. It was soon before Amelia was to be born. I cherished those times!ReplyDelete
Isnt it so sad.. I nursed my first.. he self weaned at around 12 months... I was devastated but held on to the fact I would have another baby.ReplyDelete
I had my second and was only able to nurse him for 3 1/2 weeks to me getting something called (nipple vasospasms) Anyway, be so greatful he nursed this long and in a few short months you will have a whole new baby who's going to want the boo for a very long time :-)
Sniff.... You know, I DID know when it was the last time I nursed The Baby and it was HEART RENDING! Far better, I think, for it just to gently end like this.ReplyDelete
I wish that I could say that I enjoyed the nursing experience, I did it because it was best for my babies. Now with my third, Colin, my experience nursing was sooooooooo much more positive and easy. I was happy that I had one good experience out of my 3 kids. How old is Gray?ReplyDelete
Good for you! Now you only have 7 months or so of freedom before you have to start all over again (said the pot to the kettle).ReplyDelete
That is sad and bitter sweet but what a smooth transition. Sounds like he knew your body needed the rest. What a great nursing relationship you've had!ReplyDelete
Congrats... on nursing for so long, and for weaning successfully and naturally. Hope you feel better soon! (if it's a girl, will she be a Ruth?)ReplyDelete
What a sweet post. So many commenters are saying "how sad", but I don't read this and hear you feeling sad. Bittersweet, yes, but you both are ready!ReplyDelete
When done naturally you really don't have that "last one", do you? You don't know it's the last. Don't be surprised if he comes back in a few days to try it out for maybe what really is the last time.
What a milestone! So happy that you will get a little break before the new peanut arrives. Miss you.
the two of you had an amazing ride though...huh?ReplyDelete
This post made me a bit sad too. I can remember my youngest weaning himself, and I wasn't really mentally prepared for it, but it just kind of happened. For me, it's sad because I know that Owen is my last baby, but you can be happy for the fact that you'll have another little bundle to nurse!:)ReplyDelete
I know how bittersweet it feels. How wonderful for you both that it ended naturally with no abrupt changes and that Gray led the way and made the transition without being forced. I had to wean Ella last July abruptly and I still feel sad about it when I look back even though she was 25 months old when it happened. It would have been nice if she had been the one to make the choice for herself.ReplyDelete
Soon you'll have a new little baby to nurse and you will get to enjoy that very special bond all over again. Hugs to you both.
I'm so glad it happened so naturally for you and Gray. How it should be! I know it's bittersweet, though!!ReplyDelete

I'm sure that had to be bittersweet. I never nursed enough to know the real pain of letting go of the nursing but you've done an amazing job and when it's time to end, it's time to end. Glad to know it went so smoothly. You'll have another one calling you his/her boo soon!ReplyDelete
Such a bittersweet time. At least you guys were both ready and it happened naturally. Now you can look forward to nursing #4. :-)ReplyDelete
I am so with you...Kaelin is down to once a day...and everyday I'm like "maybe today is the last..." and then the next day, I nurse her again. It's our special time together...ReplyDelete
It is better that way, that's for sure. It's still hard, though.ReplyDelete
I'm glad the transition went well. It's always a little bittersweet when it's time to stop nursing a little one.ReplyDelete
awww, i've got tears in my eyes. it sounds like it went exactly as it needed to and he was certainly ready. big hugs, mama.ReplyDelete
That's funny, Lilla calls my breasts boo boos. :) I actually ended at 14 months because I thought it would get her to start drinking milk, yeah, that didn't work. I would never have finished so soon had I known what would happen. It was very natural though, she just woke up one day and stopped asking for it. Which was strange since she was so attached to my breast and I thought it would be ugly. It wasn't though and I have such fond memories of that time together.ReplyDelete
How bitter sweet. I think My Little Man might be done with boo also(and yes boo is what he calls it too) It hit me lastnight when I went to bed that He hadn't nursed in about a week.. Then in the middle of the night lastnight he woke up climbed in bed with me and I think out of habit started to nurse He only stayed on for like 2 or 3 seconds then rolled over and went right back to sleep..ReplyDelete
I know he is a big boy now and I'm very happy he weaned on his own just like his big sister did.. but I'm sort of sad seeing as how he is our last and this means the end of nurseing for me.
I'm not sure if I should say congrats for your boy growing up and for easy weaning.. Or I'm sorry that it is coming to an end.
Part of the reason this is so heart-wrenching is because you know he's growing up, no?ReplyDelete
Sound like the perfect ending to a beautiful thing to me...
Reminds me of how I stopped nursing my first. I was pregnant with my second and although this isn't supposed to happen, it dried up my milk supply. That's part of how I found out I was pregnant. My 11 month-old took it casually...we had some really short nursing sessions at the end and he was biting me and I didn't know why. Then he just stopped trying. He just figured he'd tapped me out. I was fine with stopping nursing but was dissappointed that I didn't know our last nursing session was our last nursing session at the time. That made me a little sad.ReplyDelete
I had the same experience with my last baby. I had hoped to have him breastfeed just a little longer than necessary, but he just sort of weaned himself without either of us realizing it. It's so bittersweet - you want them to grow and become independent, but its so hard to let go and allow them to grow up.ReplyDelete
This is probably my last baby, too, so that means I'll have no more "last nursing sessions" to cherish. At least I had 12 good months...
what a beautiful post!!ReplyDelete
Hope you're getting the much needed rest too!
I agree, at least you'll have a little break ebfore the new baby.ReplyDelete
I was sad in a way when Sarah stopped nursing, it was a special bond
I'm crying..one day it will end.ReplyDelete
I hop it will go as peacefully as it did with you. Right now even the thought makes my heart hurt!

Redbirds vs. Lions a solidified program against a typical college club program, Missouri vs. Illinois and the Redbirds first conference game. We met Lindenwood at O'Fallon Township High School in O'Fallon, IL to have a showcase game of two completely different GRLC school. O'Fallon Township High School hosted us to also boost the awareness of lacrosse in this area. It was a very slow game to start with as the wind and rain kept coming down. Lindenwood pulled away in the end beating us 13-4. One day of rest came for ISU on Friday and then it was back to the open road to take on Purdue on March 27th.
The weather decided to corporate for the game against Purdue and Illinois State came out with something to prove after losing in overtime to the Boilermakers last year. We came out with a firing and got up 8-1 at halftime. That would be enough to put away the Boilermakers and the Redbirds eventually put in 6 more goals before the game ended. Purdue's close defense had more points than their whole offense combined, proving that our defensive unit had a solid day. ISU had 8 different scorers on the day with a many freshman players notching their first college lacrosse points. It was an all-around great performance by the Redbirds and really showed that we are going to be tough competitors in this conference and are not going to go away lightly.
On to the open road again as we traveled from West Lafayette, Indiana to Bloomington, Indiana a 2 hour trip. We were scheduled to take on the Indiana Hoosiers the following day if the weather was going to hold out for us. Another conference game that would give a good picture for playoffs and a must need win for the Redbirds. Sunday morning came and it was rainy and cold. Indiana plays on a recreation field and from what information we were told any rain that field gets, all scheduled play on the field is cancelled. The referee crew that was from the game on the previous day, Missouri played Indiana at this field, was called off. A separate officiating crew was not contacted until 10:00 AM the day of the game. Leaving the referees to arrive at 1:30 PM when the game was scheduled for 1:00. A penalty plagued first half lead to Indiana taking the lead 8-4. The game was postponed at half-time due to field conditions. This game will be re-scheduled for the weekend of April 17th. It would have been appreciated to be informed of what was really going on as both teams stood in the rain for more than an hour to have the game stopped at half-time and the whole situation was handle very unprofessionally. It was a long weekend to say the least for the Redbirds. We have taken this week to recover and prepare for our next game.
Illinois State will take on long standing rival University of Illinois Wednesday April 7th at Hancock Stadium in Normal, IL. The game is scheduled for 7:00 PM and will prove to be a hard fought battle. Illinois has beaten some very talented teams this spring so this game will be a test of two very talented clubs. Conference play is going to mount in the next couple of weeks so make sure to check back for updates.
One Love…

EVENT HORIZON (Friday, Sep 30)
'A Lot About Living'
Alan Jackson • country
By Joshua Lee
As Ludwig von Beethoven once said, "Music is the mediator between the spiritual and the sensual life." Those words still carry weight, even now: a thousand years later. And you'll find no better example than the incomparable Alan Jackson, whose voice and countenance rival those of the gods, as though he were hewn from the heart of the sun itself. His honky tonk tunes are swords of righteous terror and beauty which melt the eardrums of devotees, lost in reverie as they bathe in the glorious golden ambiance of his mustache. He'll be playing live at the Sandia Resort & Casino on Friday, Sept. 30. Take a gander.

EVENT HORIZON (Friday, Sep 30)
Desert Sound
Chrome Sparks • electronic, indie pop
By Joshua Lee
So Chrome Sparks apparently has a few hours open in his schedule to visit ABQ—somewhere in between juggling his gajillion other projects and fulfilling his role as busiest spacey electro-pop composer on the planet. New Mexico seems like the perfect place for those wide-open, expansive tunes of his. Maybe someone can talk him into posting up in the middle of the desert next time. Sound carries further at night and can have a a really spooky resonance. Just saying. This Friday, Sept. 30, he'll be wowing the pants off of us at Sister Bar (which is indoors, unfortunately) starting at 9pm.
EVENT HORIZON (Monday, Oct 3)

Ladies and gents, I am happy to report that Miike Snow, the Swedish electro-pop band of your dreams, will be performing at our very own Historic El Rey Theater. Imagine Alt-J and Dan Black created a musically inclined love child. The result would be something like Miike Snow. If that's too foreign an analogy, you'll just have to listen for yourself at 7pm on Monday, Oct. 3. Tickets are just $25-$40 for all ages. The Mezzanine bar will be open for folks 21+.

Andrew Jackson Jihad • folk-punk • Diners • surf, indie rock • Kepi Ghoulie • punk folk
By Peter Karlsen
Once upon a time, back in 2004, in the distant land of Arizona, there was born a folk-punk band by the name of Andrew Jackson Jihad. It was a mouthful, so they decided to go by the acronym AJJ. Then they decided to formally change their name to that. Soon they'll be at the Launchpad. People in this town like to shit on the folk-punkers, but fuck those jerks. I already bought a ticket to this Launchpad show and I bet I'll be buying band merch, too. This kick-ass event starts at 8pm on Oct. 5.

- Better than Acuvue Define Review by Katie
- I used to order the brown/vivid color of the Acuvue Define. However, I've switched to B&L Brown lens for almost a year & I love it! I wear it every day (8+ hours). It is very comfortable and it never feels like your eyes are burning at the end of the day. I am Asian, my hair is more of a dark brown shade, therefore, I went with the B&L brown lens and it's very natural color. It is a shade lighter than the Acuvue Define Vivid. Both Acuvue and B&L are great lenses, I would recommend the B&L lenses for its comfort and looks. (Posted on 1/23/15)
- Splendid Colors Review by Elia
- Splendid Colors, satisfied for both black and brown. I'd been used to wearing everyday. (Posted on 9/5/14)

We bought a new car right before you were born. And I remember that because right afterward we went to the mall so I could get a new pair of shoes. (Daddy got a new car = Mommy got new shoes. It was a fair trade to me!) And then I think we went to meet friends and saw one of the Star Wars movies. I don't remember which one- they were all the same and I'm sure I could look it up but I'm not kidding anyone here.
I think we were most surprised with you, out of all our babies, because you were a whopper at almost 10 lbs. Especially since the Dr. guessed you were about 7lbs less than 24 hours before.
You broke your collar bone coming out and I'm pretty sure this will be a story you'll tell often someday.
You've taught me recently that if I make peanut-butter sandwiches or mashed potatoes (or both if it's a banner day) then I am the Best Mommy In The Whole World.
(The secret is that it's not the making of those things, it's the knowing that those things mean so much to you.)

I wish the GOP could find another Gerald Ford. President Ford saved the country from two things: Watergate and Vietnam.
Ford was a true fiscal conservative with 66 vetoes, the most of any one-term president. Ford understood the folly of getting involved in the Middle East, saying on "Meet the Press" in 1980 if we get involved in the Middle East it will be a quagmire, worse than Vietnam.
Ford came along just at the right moment. God, we need someone like him today!

Village of Hamburg residents think the improvements to Main Street and the business district added to the sense of community in the village, according to a survey by a Hilbert College graduate student.
Erin M. Carmina, who presented her findings to the Village Board on Tuesday evening, said she tried to find out how residents and businesses perceive the outcomes and the importance of the Main Street grant program. The village was successful in obtaining grants for four years, totaling $800,000, for facade improvements along Main and Buffalo streets. The grant program, along with the reconstruction of Main Street and installation of four roundabouts in the village, are credited with transforming the village into a pedestrian-friendly community with a strong commercial core.
The village was ready for redevelopment, with tired buildings, some of which were empty. "The village experienced disinvestment over the years," Carmina said.
Carmina distributed information about the online survey to 1,250 residents and businesses, including delivering postcards to 600 residents living near the business district. She said there were 169 responses, for a 13 percent response rate. More than half the respondents were 46 to 65 years old, she said.
Most respondents to the survey believe that the improvements offer greater opportunities for businesses, enhance the appearance of properties and foster a personal sense of belonging in the village and pride within the community. Respondents also believe that the improvements increase the number of community events in the village, such as fairs and festivals.
A number of respondents added comments, and most of the those were positive, Carmina said, while 10 percent could be considered negative. There were negative comments about the village needing more lighting and about a Main Street business with a mural, she said.
Mayor Thomas J. Moses Sr. said the feedback was helpful.
"We, as a village, have set our goals high," he said. "Things that you presented tonight, we can rebound off of that."

INDIANA - As the Bishop Guilfoyle Catholic girls basketball players filed out of their locker room at Indiana Area High School, many of them wore a somber, stunned look. Only after a few minutes did the tears began to pour out from mainstays like Elyssa Ehredt and Kayla Bates.
"I just wish," Bates said, "we could have done a little bit more."
This eight-member senior class of Lady Marauders had one of the most successful runs an area rich in girls basketball tradition has ever witnessed. They won four District 6 Class A championships, three Laurel Highlands Conference crowns, went to two state finals and brought home the gold trophy once.

However, for all of their 110 wins, it was their eighth and final loss as a team the best defined this team, as it made an incredible comeback from 14 points down in the second half to take a one-point lead before finally running out of steam and succumbing to WPIAL champion Vincentian, 45-40, on Tuesday evening.
"I never quit believing in our basketball team, and I think a lot of people got to see [the reason for] that tonight," Lady Marauders coach Mark Moschella said. "Win or lose the basketball game, it certainly wasn't for a lack of heart or a lack of effort, a lack of just wanting to win for each other. All of those things existed, and that's why we made the comeback."
"They're devastated. I just said to them, 'Look, I'm not even going to talk about the basketball game. You guys were on the state championship floor two times in your career. You won four district championships, Laurel Highlands, tournaments and everything else. Just to measure it on getting to Hershey, it wouldn't be fair."
Explaining that to a bunch of 17-and-18-year-olds who came up just short in their final game was one thing. Getting them to totally buy it was another.
A big reason this group had so much success was because it was driven hard to succeed. It set goals that were unreasonably high and met them in their first two years. Then it spent the last two years trying to get back there. But the Lady Marauders - with star Halee Adams returning from knee surgery at midseason - were eliminated by Fort Cherry last season before being knocked out one game too soon by Vincentian this year.
Bates said getting further than all but two Class A teams was unsatisfying.
"At the beginning of the season, we set a goal to win a state championship. Every game leads up to that, so falling one game short really hurts," Bates said. "I remember my freshman year. We made it to the state championship, and I think we won by 20. We really had the dream team. Coming back from that ever since is difficult. When you're a senior and that leader, it makes it that much more difficult. But we tried."
The Lady Marauders' tower of power during this run, Adams, had makeup uncharacteristically smeared across her cheeks.
"It hasn't sunk in yet that I'm not going to play with some of my best friends again. That's pretty much it," Adams said.
Adams will graduate from Bishop Guilfoyle as one of its most prolific performers ever. She scored her 1,000th point in her sophomore season and became the first 10th grader to win the Mirror's girls basketball player of the year award after leading a Lady Marauder team with three of her classmates in the starting lineup to the state finals.
"It's a huge disappointment," Adams said of not getting back to the championship game. "I feel like our team has overcome so many obstacles the last couple of years that we deserved to get there. It just wasn't meant to be."
Adams and Elyssa Ehredt left four years as starters behind them. Bates and Devin Stessney started for three.
"It was pretty bad," Ehredt said of the locker room atmosphere after the game. "We were really upset that we lost, but it was such an awesome team that we were together, and it's so sad that we're not going to be playing together anymore."
Brittany Boslet joined the four three-or-more-year starters in the starting five as a senior. Alexis Craig, Kristen Miller and Lexi Luciano rounded out the Lady Marauders Class of 2013.
Obviously, it was a group with a great deal of talent. Adams is heading to Siena and Bates to Mount St. Mary's on Division I scholarships. Most of the other seniors probably will play college ball somewhere.
However, the rare chemistry of this team made the whole greater than the sum of its parts, and, according to the players, made the times together off the court possibly more memorable than all those wins and titles.
"Everytime we were together, we'd have fun," Ehredt said. "We'd go out. We'd have sleep-overs. I'm not going to be able to be without them."
So they went out one last time, maybe one game too soon, but they went out putting up a huge fight, and they went out together.
"I really hoped we could pull through," Bates said. "But I'm really proud of everyone. I'm really proud of the season."

Shakespeare's source for Macbeth was Holinshed's Chronicles, which drew on the Scotorum Historiae (1527) by Hector Boece. However, Shakespeare's Macbeth differs greatly from the historical 11th century Scottish king, who was born around 1005 to Finlay, Mormaer (earl) of Moray. In 1040 the King of Alba (Scotland), Duncan, had been defeated by the English in a battle at Durham. Macbeth was a rival warlord, eligible for the high kingship by marriage to Kenneth III's grand-daughter Gruoch, and by his own royal blood of the House of Loarn. In 1040 they clashed near Elgin, in the heart of Moray and Duncan died, so Macbeth became king. Shakespeare mentions Iona, under one of its other names, as the burial place of such Scottish kings. When Ross asks "Where is Duncan's body?" Macduff replies "Carried to Colmekill/ The sacred storehouse of his predecessors,/ And guardian of their bones." (II.iv.32-5)
Macbeth's kingship was peaceful. He maintained order and Christianity with laws protecting women and children, and his queen gave lands to the Church. Macbeth felt secure enough in 1050 to visit Rome, where he gave silver to the poor. He made minor forays into Northumbria, and in 1054 he was challenged by Siward, Earl of Northumbria, seeking to return Duncan's son Malcolm Canmore, his nephew, to the Scottish throne. In 1057, Macbeth was defeated by Malcolm III and probably killed at the Battle of Lumphanan. Macbeth's step-son by Gruoch, Lulach, appears next in the king lists, but he too was killed by Malcolm after a few months, ending the Celtic high kingship in Scotland, based on alternating families in the succession. As in the play, Malcolm thus succeeded in English hereditary style: though the kingship went to his brother Donalbane upon his death, it then passed back to Malcolm's son and in patrilineal fashion from then on. So we can answer L. C. Knight's famous question ridiculing A. C. Bradley's literalism: "How many children had Lady Macbeth?" with the fact that Macbeth's historical queen had at least one, Lulach (as Lady Macbeth explicitly confirms, I.vii.54-5).
Shakespeare blackened Macbeth and his wife and stressed the witches perhaps to interest King James I, whose Scottish ancestors seemingly included Banquo. Like Old Hamlet the historical Macbeth lived when royal succession was often decided by physical conflict, but he seems a successful King and his wife a worthy queen. Harsh details in the play may come from elswhere, including Catherine de Medici's involvement in the St. Batholemew Day's Massacre in France. The play seems written in the vein of Titus Andronicus, by its murder of women and children, and the final grotesque display of Macbeth's head, which usually provokes nervous laughter. The script has been cut and reworked: Hecate (IV.i) was probably added by Middleton, who may have done some cutting.

Michael Douglas is hard at work in Cannes to promote his HBO film, Behind the Candelabra, but he is ready to be back home with his wife, Catherine-Zeta-Jones, who just completed her ongoing treatment for Bipolar II disorder.
"She comes home tomorrow," he told PEOPLE on Monday. "She's doing a really good job of getting balanced. I'm proud of her."
The actress, 43, entered treatment for the second time in April as Douglas, 68, was beginning to generate praise for his role as the flamboyant piano player and vocalist, Liberace.
Zeta-Jones, for one, is already a fan. "She loves it," says Douglas. "It cracks her up. She thinks it's a great movie."
Costarring Matt Damon as Liberace's lover, the film lent Douglas a new perspective on the legendary performer's lifestyle.
"He was a very hard-working guy who never seemed to lose his cool," he says. "It was a joy playing a nice guy. I don't get to play a lot of nice guys."
Look for much more from PEOPLE's interview with Michael Douglas in an upcoming issue of the magazine

Blogging by Design
By Nalini Kotamraju on Jul 30, 2007
Nalini Kotamraju is a user researcher in xDesign, and a PhD in Sociology. She has a penchant for research methods and telling it exactly like it is.
Recently, I had a conversation with Anant Kartik Mithal, who is Director of xDesign (Software Experience Group) at Sun Microsystems, Inc. xDesign provides a wide range of design services for Sun's software products including visual and motion-graphic design, interaction design, usability reviews, user research, web development and assistance with accessibility compliance.
Nalini: Why launch Design@Sun, a blog by and about Sun's Software User Experience Group (xDesign)?
Kartik: xDesign does an incredible amount of absolutely fascinating design work. As I spend time talking to all kinds of people across Sun — designers, engineers, managers — I listen to the problems they're trying to solve, and the problems are simply fascinating. I think a lot of people inside and outside of Sun would be interested in them. It's interesting to understand what problems people are solving and how everyone solves them differently. And it's fascinating to see how people think through the solution process. Look at the design for Solaris' start-up, for example. I would have done it differently. It's wonderful to see an absolutely fantastic design that's different than what I might have done. And the same goes for the work in the Tools space, in the Web Admin space.
Nalini: What kind of problems and solutions will Design@Sun cover?
Kartik: The designers in xDesign, for example, are looking at how we can turn Solaris into a modern operating system and what that means. How can we get the Solaris start-up experience to be fun? Something like start-up poses an interesting design issue. It's something a user has to go through; it's not something the user necessarily wants to go through. This kind of design problem that's a little different than those users encounter when executing tasks. If I'm using JavaFX to create an animation, I'm actually getting work done. But if I'm doing start-up and install, these are wasted steps. So how can you make them interesting for users? How can you give the user something back while they're happening? If you take our individual software products, they're all very different. What we're trying to do is be as similar as possible across our products. So if you learn to use one of them, you can learn to use all of them. That's something we achieved in the productivity apps a long time ago, and we're doing it in the admin apps now.
Nalini: What will people get from Design@Sun?
Kartik: We hope to share with our readers a bunch of interesting problems that Sun is trying to solve. A lot of our stuff is open source so people can follow along as it shows up and comment if interested. Sun is all about making our customers more successful and more productive. And design is all about supporting that.
Also, one of the things that some people have lost sight of is that Sun invests a great deal in its user experience. Whether it's the hardware or the software. It's very important to us. It's very important to us that administrators are able to assemble and disassemble systems as easily as possible. That system administrators are productive with Solaris. That developers are productive with NetBeans. That everyone is productive with StarOffice. We want everyone to be productive.
We were at CHI this year, as we are most years. I was a little shocked when a few people came up to me and said that they didn't know that Sun had HCI (human-computer interaction) professionals. Very prominent people in the field of HCI work at Sun. Sun has been very active in this field, and maybe this blog can provide people with a better idea of what Sun is doing in design and user experience.

Tuesday, April 2, 2013
Shrieks of excitement coming from pulsing neon lights on things that go round and round and upside down into the night are usually some of the sights and sounds of fall as county fairs and festivals are in full swing.
But they are also on the way this spring...to the Lowcountry Strawberry Festival at Boone Hall Plantation,and for the first time ever at this event in prime time.
The festival has always been a spring favorite for families who enjoy the combination of these delightful berries and wholesome fun on the farm. That has always been the main focus of this event and will always be.
But as this event continues to grow, Boone Hall has continued to expand and improve what is presented at the festival in an effort to engage more people in this annual celebration of one of the signature crops grown on the plantation.
As a result, the festival for 2013 has been expanded to be presented over four days including being open at night for the first time in addition to the normal daytime schedule.
The 2013 Lowcountry Strawberry Festival will run from Thursday April 18 through Sunday April 21 and will feature more than 30 attractions of different kinds and sizes for all ages. Spectacular rides geared for the thrill-seeker crowd will be part of the mix as well as a number of fun rides for families and children.
The event will also feature pig races, magic shows, vendors, a variety of festival type foods and of course, U-Picking of strawberries during event daytime hours. The festival is being presented in cooperation with the South Carolina Department Of Agriculture's Certified SC Grown program and the town of Mount Pleasant.
Admission prices have been reduced from prior years in an effort to make this event work for the family budget.
$5 - ages 12 and up
$3 - ages 3-11
Ages 2 and under are admitted free with accompanying adult.
The dates and hours for this year's festival are as follows:
Opening Night Thursday, April 18 - 6-11 p.m. - Student Night
Friday, April 19 - 4 p.m.-midnight
Saturday, April 20 - 10 a.m.-midnight
Sunday, April 21 - noon-7 p.m.
The festival kicks off on Opening Night Thursday April 18 from 6 to 11 p.m. with student night. Ride Absolutely Everything Wrist Bands will be specially priced for only $10 for this one night only. Although this night is being designated as student night, the ride wrist band special will be available for all age groups.
Save $5 per ride wrist band on advance online purchases for use on:
Friday, April 19, Saturday, April 20 and Sunday, April 21 for $15 in advance online or $20 at the gate.
These can be used on any one of the three days the purchaser chooses. The wrist bands are not valid for multiple days. A Ride Everything Wrist Band allows event goers to ride every ride at the event.
Individual tickets will also be sold at the event if the choice is to pay for the rides individually instead purchasing a wrist band. The number of tickets required for each ride will vary. These tickets will be $1 each.
Participants can buy admission and ride wrist bands in advance online and there is a special Q & A section answers questions @ boonehallplantation.com.
There will be an Express Ticket Line for online purchasers that will provide faster service to receive wrist bands and admission into the event.

Gomez – who shares her July 22 birthday with the newborn Prince George of Cambridge – hosted a gypsy-themed bash at Malibu's Revolve Beach House. On the guest list: Julianne Hough and brother Derek, Nina Dobrev, Ashley Benson, Jaden Smith and celeb stylist Riawna Capri.
"When Selena's song 'Birthday' came on, all of the guests gathered on the dance floor and took shots of chilled VeeV," a source tells PEOPLE. The evening, which was filled with dancing, good friends, and plenty of drinks, got an unexpected visitor around midnight when the Spring Breakers actress's on-again, off-again beau Justin Bieber arrived.
"Justin arrived at the party in his leopard-print Audi R8," a different source says. "He was casually dressed and carried a single rose."
When Gomez saw him she "started to cry," according to the first source. "Justin and Selena went into the house to talk and were inside for a long time before sneaking out together."
But aside from Bieber's unexpected appearance, the ladies were dressed to party and showed off their midriffs – after arriving at the over-the-top celebration via party bus.
Party bus!!!! #selenaareyouready?!?! http://t.co/2DMct3GqD3— Julianne Hough (@juliannehough) July 28, 2013

As for the birthday girl, the second source says she left the party with Bieber, 19, around 2 a.m.

on November 28, 2012 - 9:04 PM
Denise Hine wrapped up a few routine tasks Tuesday morning and was heading back home to Derby with her blue-eyed baby daughter, Baylee Marie Dion, secured in an infant carrier in the back seat.
Hine dropped off another daughter, 4-year-old Ciera, at preschool in Angola. She stopped at a gas station to fill the family's Pontiac Grand Am.
Then the uneventful morning turned disastrous. A 24-year-old woman, who authorities allege was drunk, drove a Ford Explorer across the center line while heading the opposite way on Southwestern Boulevard in Brant.
Hine, 31, tried swerving away, but the Explorer slammed into the smaller car, ripping it in two.
Rescuers worked furiously to revive 7-month-old Baylee, who was rushed in her infant car seat to Lake Shore Health Care Center in Irving, where she was pronounced dead. Hine suffered multiple fractures and internal injuries and was taken to Erie County Medical Center, where she remains in serious condition.
Danielle N. Kellogg of Brant, who had an earlier DWI arrest in 2009, has been charged with vehicular manslaughter and DWI.
She was being held in Erie County Holding Center on $20,000 bail.
Baylee's grief-stricken family struggled to understand how anyone could be drinking and driving at a time when many people are dropping kids off at school and heading to work.
"I'm sick, sick to my stomach," said Scott Dion, Baylee's father and Hine's fiance. "For anybody to get behind the wheel and drive at 9 o'clock in the morning – seriously, why don't people wake up and realize how much damage they can do?"
Dion, 30, teared up several times during interviews with reporters Wednesday afternoon at ECMC.
He was accompanied at the hospital by his mother, Linda, and Hine's sister and brother-in-law, Michelle and Jared Wilson.
"The beauty and innocence [of Baylee] has just been totally taken away from everybody," said Linda Dion, who normally would have been baby-sitting her granddaughter on a Wednesday.
Instead, she and others were remembering the infant's amazing blue eyes and pleasant, happy nature.
"She was the best baby anybody could ever have," said Scott Dion. "She was nothing but smiles. She never cried. She was such a good baby."
Linda Dion was thankful that Baylee's sister, Ciera, had been dropped off safely at school just moments before the crash.
Erie County sheriff's officials obtained a court order to get a blood sample from Kellogg to determine her blood-alcohol content.
Kellogg was pulled over three years ago by a Chautauqua County Sheriff's deputy on Route 60 in the Town of Pomfret, according to records obtained by The Buffalo News.
The deputy allegedly saw Kellogg cross the center line and the fog line, and he stopped her at 4:19 a.m. Nov. 26, 2009.
The deputy smelled alcohol on her breath and noted that her eyes were red and watery. She failed several field-sobriety tests and was taken to the sheriff's substation, where her blood-alcohol content was measured at 0.12 percent. She was charged with DWI and DWI per se.
According to DMV records, Kellogg pleaded guilty in Town of Pomfret Court to driving while impaired in January 2010 and paid a $500 fine. She had a conditional license until May 17, 2010, when her full driving privileges were restored.
Her license was valid at the time of Tuesday's crash.
When informed of Kellogg's prior arrest, Scott Dion responded by saying, "Maybe they should come up with a law: You get the first one, and you go to jail and don't get your license back."
"For the girl that did this, she made the biggest mistake in her life by getting behind that wheel," he said. "She wasted her life away."
Linda Dion implored people during the holidays not to drive if they've been drinking.
"Just call a cab. This is so senseless," added Jared Wilson. "That was a beautiful baby that was lost."
In addition to her parents and sister, Baylee is survived by two other siblings, Michelle, 9, and Ryan, 10.
Scott Dion said he hasn't been able to bring himself to think about making funeral arrangements for his baby daughter.
"I wish I knew the right thing, how to feel, how to react to what has happened," he said. "I still feel like it's not real, and I'm going to wake up and hold my daughter in my arms."
