NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Twitter (TWTR) is the king of microblogging for public display. But it could have been so much more.
That it isn't shows the perils of overly focusing on your "core" business.
While Twitter and Facebook (FB) are the kings of mobile today -- at least in terms of market capitalization -- it's clear that the hottest parts of mobile are in the messaging space.
Snapchat recently turned down $3 billion from Facebook. Tencent's WeChat is growing like a weed in China. Line is doing the same in Japan. Kik has grabbed up a bunch of teens in the western world. WhatsApp continues to be a big daddy of multi-platform messaging and sharing photos. Even BlackBerry's (BBRY) BBM continues to surprise critics with how well it's doing in downloads since it moved to a multi-platform approach.
Why is the messaging space so hot now?
These apps are really the opposite of the traditional public social networks epitomized by Facebook. Instead of wanting to publicly share, people attracted to these alternative messaging platforms prefer anonymity. What's more, they prefer exclusivity. They'd rather only be used by their friends and family.
If we can only limit our communication to behind the velvet rope -- never to be seen by nosy teachers, enemies, or parents -- we can truly share ourselves. There's no fear that a drunk picture of us will surface in the wrong hands.

Pseudo-Seneca: Octavia (Companions to Greek and Roman Tragedy)
The Octavia is generally acknowledged to be a work of the second half of the 1st century AD, when Nero�s divorce and subsequent execution of his virtuous first wife, Octavia, would have been topical. It explores not only the abuse of power but the disintegration of a society without respect. The reader is challenged to view events in the last years of the reign of Nero in light of an earlier famous Octavia, the sister of Augustus abandoned by Antony for Cleopatra, and also in light of other well known historical dramas. George Harrison places the Octavia in the context of Latin dramas of the early empire, both those of Seneca which survive and others on historical topics, some of which brought charges of treason against their authors. He discusses major trends in interpretation of the play and the history of its performance.

Nicolas Lodeiro sees red as Uruguay hold France
Nicolas Lodeiro received the first red card of the 2010 World Cup, but France were unable to capitalise on his dismissal and were held to a 0-0 draw by Uruguay.
Lodeiro came off the bench after 62 minutes, only to return there 19 minutes later after collecting two yellow cards – for throwing the ball away and subsequently fouling Bacary Sagna .
However, France's efforts to break down ten-man Uruguay proved fruitless, placing yet more pressure on embattled coach Raymond Domenech .
He had already courted controversy by opting to leave out Thierry Henry and Florent Malouda , but his side were hardly short of attacking threat during the opening 45 minutes.
Sidney Govou squandered a great chance to put Les Bleus ahead in the seventh minute when he put his casual finish wide from Franck Ribery 's cross.
Yoann Gourcuff saw a free-kick clawed away by Uruguay's impressive goalkeeper Fernando Muslera, while Nicolas Anelka saw a header drift just wide.
Uruguay also had a good opportunity to open the scoring in the first half, but Hugo Lloris denied the dangerous Diego Forlan.
The same pattern continued after half-time, with France enjoying marginally the better of the play but Uruguay also creating occasional chances.
Henry replaced Anelka with 20 minutes to go, but the move almost backfired immediately when a straightforward chance fell to Forlan. However, the ex-Manchester United man fired wide from 15 yards out.
It was a Uruguayan substitute who had the biggest influence on the match, as Lodeiro saw red with nine minutes to play.
France pushed forward in search of the win, but they rarely tested the goalkeeper and Uruguay held on for a point they fully deserved.

In Reply to: Wide boy posted by Gary Martin on June 23, 2008 at 08:36:
: : : : I am curious about the derivation of the British term 'wide boy' in the sense of a latter day spiv.
: : : This term was lodged in my memory as relating to the wide-lapelled 'teddy-boy' suits, favoured by spivs, like the Flash Harry character that George Cole played in the St. Trinians films.
: : : Apparently not. The OED lists one of the slang meanings of 'wide' as:
: : : "Wide-awake, cute; shrewd, sharp-witted; (dishonestly) cunning or knowledgeable; skilled in sharp practice; engaging in shady dealings."
: : : and puts that as the source of 'wide boy'.
: : What is a spiv?
: Sorry, I didn't realize that word hadn't travelled. Spivs are small-time crooks, who live on their wits - not quite breaking the law but bending it as far as it will go. They are usually stereotyped as wearing sharp suits, hence the speculation that 'spiv' derives from 'spiffy' (smart).
Actually, none of those words have travelled. Nor have I managed to see a St. Trinian's film and only heard about them recently. I looked all of the terms up and am slightly enlightened. At least I no longer think teddy-boy refers to Sebastian in Brideshead Revisited.
I have watched "Only Fools and Horses" and always felt like I wasn't quite getting it - I'm guessing because the brothers fit some sort of "archetype" that automatically makes some things funny (like cops eating donuts).

Yelp! A class-action suit?
ADOTAS – One of three civil suits against Yelp filed in the California Superior Court is by Boris Levitt, the owner of a San Francisco furniture-restoration company. He alleges that Yelp retaliates against businesses that don't choose to advertise by negatively skewing their ratings and reviews on the site. The conflict gained publicity when the East Bay Express published an article claiming that Yelp offered to hide negative customer reviews for businesses in exchange for advertising.
According to The Wall Street Journal report on the matter, Mr. Levitt said, "Yelp misleads the public by manipulation of average ratings," he claims to have kept records to show that some positive reviews about his furniture company disappeared after he declined to advertise on Yelp. "If they hadn't changed my average rating by deleting my reviews, I would have more business."
Yelp's Chief Executive, Jeremy Stoppelman, denies the charges—blaming them partly on businesses misunderstandings about Yelp's rating system and lawyers' desires to spur litigation.
Two other suits seeking class-action status on behalf of small businesses have followed. One was filed on March 3 by a San Diego spa, and one on Feb. 24 by a Long Beach animal hospital. A lawyer representing the plaintiff in the San Diego spa suit, Jared Beck, said it has been joined by nine other plaintiffs, in a case that alleges Yelp violated California laws against attempted extortion and unfair competition, among other things.
"The conduct is an offer to manipulate content in exchange for payment. That is plain and simple," Beck he said. But Yelp's Stoppelman counters by stating Yelp sales agents never offer to improve a company's online ratings and reviews if they choose to advertise. The WSJ quotes Stoppelman saying, "If you could garner a top review on Yelp simply by emailing people you knew would review you favorably, that would render the site useless."
Reader Comments.
I also own a family business in San Diego and any good reviews on our restaurant were pulled after one day then we were slandered by a person accusing us of being racist because we did not call her about selling her chili at our restaurant. Which is far far from the truth and it has damaged our business.
how do we get on this class action suit.
see my e-mail address
They have been the worst!!! all the good reviews are never posted, only the one and only bad one…
once we decided not to go ahead with advertising.
I don't understand how they are allowed to have business in the internet world…
I support any lawsuit against Yelp for any reason. They are the internet version of Jerry Springer. They do not even allow rebuttals for stupid reviews.
I agree, it was not quite fair from their side. Really, having business in the internet is rather doubtful nowadays.
So sad about the case with Sandy Borndale. I got a neighbour who had similar situation. I hope everything will turn to the better and people will start respecting each other.
Yelp is total scum. Anyone who has used it for more than a few days, and is not out of touch with reality, you know.
Those who are out of touch with reality can be readily identified – put a little cry of "elite" badge next to their name in the exams.
Yelp CEO Jeremy Stoppleman has just released a passionate statement denying all wrongdoing on Yelp's part, addressing a class action lawsuit …
I would like to join the class action suit against YELP. Here's the letter I just wrote and tried to send to them (which incidently they blocked apparently due to "word count.")
Mike W.'s review of Deborah Bryon Ph.D in Denver is a misrepresentation. Mike W was not a client. No money ever exchanged hands so he technically did not have "first hand consumer experience." "Seeing her was ….a waste of money" is also false. Since Mike W. never employed me for my services these statement are not factually correct. Mike W's review violates your "Terms of Service." Your immediate response to these misrepresentations is appreciated.
i have been dealing with the bad reviews starting in Jan and now it making me loose business bad i have the people i clean to go and leave reviews and they don't stay up the a whole day i need to be in this law suit .i have paper work of the review bieng filter and i have be that writen over and over and it still get filter. i am a father and husband of a wife and 3 kids please help file the suit please

Ray Crooke
Ray Crooke was born in Auburn, Victoria in 1922. Throughout the majority of his adult life he has lived and worked in Northern Queensland, and travelled extensively throughout Australia, Torres Strait and Pacific regions. His powerful imagery and vibrant colours have made Crooke one of Australia's most highly regarded artists.
Crooke first encountered the landscape as a young man enlisted in the army, where he travelled from Western Australia to Townsville, through Cape York Peninsula and the Atherton Tableland to Chillagoe and to Thursday Island, where he worked as a map-maker. These initial observations of vegetation, climate, hue and light underpinned his techniques as a landscape painter, and paved a way for many paintings in the 1960s and 70s.
Ray Crooke is an avid drawer, recording ink, pen and watercolour sketches of his observations in notebooks. From these personal recordings he develops ideas and composition for the paintings.
Although Ray Crooke has been continually painting the Australian landscape since the early 1950s, he is perhaps best known for his life long affiliation with the Pacific and Fijian Islands. Since the late 1960s his images of the tropical north of Australia and the Pacific islands have enticed and enchanted viewers. Crooke continues to develop paintings from frequent trips to Fiji and to this day still travels to Fiji with his wife June.
Crooke was awarded an honorary doctorate and was made a member of the Order of Australia in 1993 for his contribution to Australian art. Crooke has also been the recipient of several notable awards. He won the Archibald prize in 1969 for his portrait of the writer, George Johnston. His work is represented by all state galleries, many regional galleries and the Vatican Museum in Rome.


text: Undersecretary of State Otero Urges the Graduates to Assess Their Principles, Values, and Beliefs More than 12,000 family and friends visit the Izod Center to watch ceremony as 2,772 degrees are conferred. View photos View social media comments and photos from Commencement Day Spirits were high as 2,772 degrees were conferred during the University's 189th Commencement ceremony on May 22 in the Izod Center before more than 12,000 family and friends. Maria Otero, U.S. Under Secretary of State for Civilian Security, Democracy and Human Rights, the highest-ranking Hispanic official at the State Department and the first Latina Under Secretary in its history, received an honorary doctor of laws degree and served as commencement speaker. Bachelor's degrees were conferred on 2,446 undergraduates, while 326 students received master's degrees. Also in attendance were members of the Class of 1962, who are celebrating their 50th reunion and who graduated when William Paterson was called Paterson State College, as well as members of the Pioneer Society, alumni who graduated at least 50 years ago. Otero, who was honored for her "zeal in enhancing the public interest; her dedication to issues of global development and poverty, and to populations on the margins of society; and her tireless commitment as a champion of democracy," spoke to the graduates of the importance of earning a college degree, but also of the necessity of defining one's beliefs and values. "Who you are is important," she said. "The degree is part of it, but as you start out in your career, take a moment to articulate your principles, values, and beliefs, and ask yourself how integrity and compassion fit into your life." President Kathleen Waldron also addressed the assembled graduates. "You have sacrificed and worked hard to reach this milestone," she said. "Whatever challenges the future holds, you have proven that you have what it takes to succeed and we are so proud of your academic accomplishments and your hard work. The future is yours. Continue to seek opportunities, advance your education, and make a difference in this world." Valedictorian Nathan Giroux, who earned a bachelor of music degree, summa cum laude, advised the graduates to "choose what you will put your effort into. It's a simple, powerful idea. Then put your all into what you choose….I learned to value knowledge for myself rather than the grade, and learned that internal motivation yields far greater rewards than external motivation." Laura Bermingham presented the graduate student speech and spoke of her experiences as a non-traditional student. "I wanted to have the full experience, regardless of my age," said Bermingham, who will earn a master's degree in communication disorders in August. "This was the best decision I could have made. Rather than feel uncomfortable around my much younger counterparts, I embraced our commonalities while our differences diminished. Not only did I have a lot to offer, but I had even more to gain. I discovered we were sharing a unique common experience, engaging in commensurate exchange of ideas, and constructing a truly enriching educational adventure." During the ceremony, three faculty were recognized for their contributions to excellence: Maboud Ansari, professor of sociology, excellence in teaching; Edward Burns, professor of English, excellent in scholarship and creative expression; and Rochelle Goldberg Kaplan, professor of educational leadership and professional studies, excellence in service. 05/23/12

Giant dog likes to take a seat
Giant Irish Wolfhound Druid is the size of an average person, so it's only natural he would use the furniture in the vet's waiting room.
The 75kg giant pooch from Australia likes to take a pew next to his owner when he comes to visit the vets.
More: World's tallest dog meets world's smallest dog
He performs the amusing trick whenever he visits the Allambie Veterinary Clinic in Sydney.
While most other dogs sit patiently on the floor of the waiting room, Druid has decided to literally take a seat next to his owner Pamela Mullan.
She says her gentle giant of a pet starting displaying this amusing behaviour about a year ago, when she was taking him to vet Dr Michael Morrice.
More: Meet Giant George, the world's tallest dog
'One day I brought him up to see Michael, Druid took my seat and the next thing I know he had sat down next to me with his bottom on the seat, just like a human,' she said.
'I thought it was hilarious.'
We're inclined to agree.


text: don't know if anyone can respond to this quickly or not. A man washed his dog, did not get all the soap off, I suspect the soap he used was a medicated shampoo for fleas. HE then applied bio spot. THe dog is 14 years old. When I saw the dog, he was wall eyed, panting hard, and acting like his skin was on fire. I tried to tell the man that I thought his dog was in dire distress and would he let me help, he became very angry took the dog and left. My heart is very heavy, I was just offering to bathe the dog, and I would have even given him the money to replace the bio spot if he wanted, the dog was a 14 year old beagle, I was told I was insulting the man. What I wanted to do was help his dog. Just feeling sick. IS this as dangerous as i think it is, for any dog let alone a senior, isn't that a double dose? I am not going to apologize for the fact that I am incapable of not seeing a medical emergency, get mad at me or not. THe man himself is very ill. Second reason I was trying to help. I feel badly that I upset him, because I do not feel he was in his right mind at this time. I do feel sick about the dog however and do not know how else I could of handled it. FOr the record I do not know where he lives or have a number to reach him. I for the life of me do not know why people do not trust me at times like this. I am not saying that anyone did it on purpose, or that he hasnt' cared for the dog the 14 years he has had him.

International Water-Guard has marked some highlight events recently, among them delivery of its 2,000th water treatment unit (for installation in a Dassault 2000LX) and delivery of the first of the new IWG-A6 unit to Gulfstream Aerospace for the new G650.
The IWG technology uses a part of the ultraviolet spectrum that destroys micro-organisms but does not affect the taste of the water. The treatment unit is incorporated into the aircraft potable water system.
While ensuring that the necessary ultraviolet light is produced to disinfect the water supply, a self-monitoring system in the IWG-A6 scans for a range of fault conditions, which are reported to a cabin management system.

NOTE: References to both "Shaw" and "Crompton" redirect here.
Shaw and Crompton has been, since 1974, a town and civil parish within the Metropolitan Borough of Oldham, in Greater Manchester, England. It lies on the River Beal at the foothills of the South Pennines, 2.3 miles (3.7 km) north of Oldham, 3.6 miles (5.8 km) southeast of Rochdale, and 8.7 miles (14 km) to the northeast of the city of Manchester. It is regularly referred to as Shaw.
Prior to 1974 the town was in Lancashire. Crompton (as it was originally known) and its surroundings have provided evidence of ancient British and Anglian activity in the area. During the Middle Ages, Crompton formed a small township of scattered woods, farmsteads, moorland, and swamp with a small and close community of families. The local lordship was weak or absent, and so Crompton failed to emerge as a manor with its own lord and court. Farming was the main industry of this broadly independent and self-supporting rural area, with locals supplementing their incomes by hand-loom woollen weaving in their homes.
The introduction of textile manufacture during the Industrial Revolution initiated a process of rapid and unplanned urbanisation. A building boom began in Crompton during the mid-19th century, when suitable land for factories in Oldham was becoming scarce. By the late 19th century Crompton had emerged as a densely populated mill town. Forty-eight cotton mills—-some of the largest in the United Kingdom—-have been recorded as existing in the area. At its spinning zenith, as a result of an interwar economic boom associated with the textile industry, Shaw and Crompton was reported to have had more millionaires per capita than any other town in the world. Imports of foreign cotton goods began the decline in the region's textile industry during the mid-20th century; Shaw and Crompton's last mill closed in 1989.
Shaw and Crompton, which covers 4.5 square miles (11.7 km2), is a predominantly suburban area of mixed affluence with a population of 21,721 in 2001.
The dual name of both Shaw and Crompton has been said to make the town "distinctive, if not unique", while preference of Shaw over Crompton and vice versa has been (and to a limited extent remains) a minor local controversy and point of confusion. Today, the single name of Shaw seems to have won preference in the locality. The names merged to form the present day Shaw and Crompton, which boundary markers have used since at least the 1950s.
Shaw was originally a hamlet and sub-district of Crompton, and appears to have originated as the commercial and ecclesiastic centre of Crompton because of a small chapel sited there dating back to the 16th century. Before then, Whitfield had been the largest village in Crompton. In 1872, Shaw was noted as one of three villages in Crompton. However, due to Shaw's urbanisation following the construction of a major road from Wernith to Littleborough, and the establishment of a post office sub-district named and situated in Shaw, it came to dominate Crompton. Additionally, a separate ecclesiastical parish was created for the township in 1835, which was given the name Shaw because of the church's location on Shaw Moor, in Crompton.
Following the Poor Law Amendment Act 1834, Crompton formed part of the Oldham Poor Law Union, an inter-parish unit established to provide social security. Crompton's first local authority was a Local board of health established in 1863. Established with reference to the Local Government Act 1858, Crompton Local Board of Health was a regulatory body responsible for standards of hygiene and sanitation in the township. Following the Local Government Act 1894, the area of the Local Board became the Crompton Urban District, a local government district within the administrative county of Lancashire.
Under the Local Government Act 1972, the town's urban district status was abolished, and the area has, since 1 April 1974, formed part of the Metropolitan Borough of Oldham, a local government district of the metropolitan county of Greater Manchester. A [modern] civil parish of Crompton was formed in April 1987 and renamed to "Shaw and Crompton" in July 1987.

• The Explore the Bible lesson for March 30 focuses on Proverbs 13:4; 14:23; 20:4; 24:30-34; 26:13-14; 28:19; 6:6-8; 10:5; 14:4; 21:20; 24:27; 11:24-25; 19:17; 22:9; 28:27.
As a hospice chaplain, I recently had the privilege of meeting an elderly African-American woman whose diagnosis gives her less than six months to live. In a matter of moments, I discovered whatever I had gone to give her in ministry she was giving back tenfold.
Among the wonderful witnesses of faith she shared, this one struck me most: "I am so full. No one owes me anything." Even as she faces the end of her earthly existence, she bares no grudges, no anger and no unresolved debts others left her unpaid. Indeed, she sees it as her obligation, even now, to give what she has to those who need it most, especially her overflowing love, which she has in abundance.
Value of a good work ethic
In this selection of passages from the book of wisdom, we are given instructions about the value of a good work ethic, promises of its value and warnings about the failure to attain one. Behind them all is the dying lady's viewpoint of life. God has been so good to her; no one owes her anything. All she has or ever had was the gift of God, some of it attained by God's gift to give her the desire to work hard so she could share with those who needed it most.
More than one parent is concerned we have raised a generation too accustomed to a sense of entitlement. These ancient words serve us all well in counteracting that way of looking at life.
At the core of this lesson is the core of Christian truth. We are not here for ourselves. Although we must work to provide for our basic needs and of those who are dependent on us, we also are to work hard so we might have something to give to those in need (Ephesians 4:28).
A good work ethic is a key to a deeply satisfying life. "A sluggard's appetite is never filled, but the desires of the diligent are fully satisfied" (Proverbs 13:4). Those who only survive by taking from others never know the joy of having earned what is theirs. That joy is one of God's greatest gifts.
"All hard work brings a profit, but mere talk leads only to poverty" (Proverbs 14:23). There is no greater poverty than the sense of incompleteness that comes when we have not contributed something good to this world through our own hard work. Hard work not only provides for our basic necessities; it also provides us with the sense that we are capable of making a good difference.
Bridges to good relationships
The danger of not having a good work ethic and being dependent on others for what we need lies in the bridges to good relationships we burn by always expecting others to care for us. In time, if we burn enough bridges, we may find ourselves in a place where no one will be willing to help. "Sluggards do not plow in season; so at harvest time they look but find nothing" (Proverbs 20:4).
The word "sluggard" is a hard word, and we should use great caution in applying it to anyone carelessly. Some people don't work hard to care for themselves for all kinds of reasons. Some people struggle with mental illness that keeps them from being productive members of society. The better part of caution demands we work with those who are not reliable workers until we can know more of what causes them to slack off.
A minister who worked with the homeless helped me understand this truth when I was a pastor in the inner city. Most of the people who stand at street corners holding up signs asking for help are mentally ill, he told me. More than a handout, those people need the church to respond with programs that will get them off of the street, get them connected to mental health care professionals and into programs that can teach basic life skills.
First extend compassion
I personally witnessed some of those people leave the street corner and become productive members of society and also active in the ministry of the church. We never should presume to know why some people don't work harder. We should first extend compassion, just as Jesus did.
If anything irritates me, it is getting stuck in line behind someone buying a lottery ticket. "Those who work their land will have abundant food, but those who chase fantasies will have their fill of poverty" (Proverbs 28:19). None of us, even the most hard-working among us, is free from the temptation of thinking we can get something valuable for nothing. Remembering that will help us extend compassion to those who never knew another way of life and motivate us to agitate for laws against such worthless gambling.
As far back as Eden, we were given God's creation to care for. There is no greater joy than laying our head on our pillow at night knowing that, although we didn't get everything done, we did our best to make a good difference in this world God gave us to nurture through hard work.

THE desperate boyfriend of a pretty young woman buried alive in a huge beach
landslide told of his frantic battle to save her today.
Tragic Charlotte Blackman, 22, was crushed to death by 400 tons of rock the
size of "haystacks" which fell "in the blink of an eye" from an unstable
cliff as she walked beneath it.
Her boyfriend Matthew Carnell, also 22, saved her younger brother Mitchell,
12, by dragging him out of the way of the landslide – as he and Charlotte's
dad Kevin dodged the falling rubble.
The pair were pulled back by passers-by as they attempted to save Charlotte,
with distraught dad Kevin insisting: "If I go, I want to go with my
Speaking of the dramatic collapse at her inquest yesterday, Matthew, choking
back tears, said: "Almost simultaneously I saw about half of the cliff face
"It happened so fast – in the blink of an eye. We had no time to get out of
the way. I grabbed Mitchell and ran into the sea.
"A large dust cloud appeared and I couldn't see for 20 seconds. I went to the
area where the cliff had fallen.
"I sent Mitchell away. There were boulders the size of haystacks. I couldn't
see Charlotte. Me and Kevin were calling for her and shouting her name and
trying to move the rocks.
"I was aware people were shouting at me and telling me to get away. It was
complete chaos. All I could think was I wanted to find Charlotte and try to
get here out of there."
The inquest heard the family had been on a week's holiday to the Freshwater
Beach Holiday Park at Burton Bradstock, Dorset, when the tragedy happened on
July 24 this year.
Charlotte had spent the morning on the beach, sunbathing and playing in rock
pools with boyfriend Matthew, dad Kevin, mum Rachel and her younger brother
The inquest heard that the 160ft tall limestone cliffs at Hive Beach, which
forms part of Britain's Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site, had been
destabilised following heavy rain weeks before.
Mr Sheriff Payne, the coroner for West Dorset, recorded a verdict of
accidental death.
Mr Payne said he will write to the holiday park and urge them to improve their
warning signs.
Miss Blackman had just gained a first class honours degree in education
studies from the University of Derby before her death.
She had done voluntary work with autistic children and wanted to become a
school teacher.
Since her death her parents have set up the Charlotte Blackman Memorial Fund
to raise money for autism services.

School of the Arts: Creativity and camaraderie converge in the North Woods
Photo: Steve Apps
It's a week up north with a three-part prize: art, heart and spirit.
The School of the Arts in Rhinelander, Wis., now in its 43rd year, offers its adult participants the chance to explore the arts in an enriching, supportive community.
A program of the University of Wisconsin-Madison's Division of Continuing Studies, the School of the Arts this year offered 59 five-day workshops in visual and computer arts, music, photography, theatre, writing and movement, all of which ran the week of July 24-28.
More than 300 people participated, many of them repeat students who savor the camaraderie as much as the course work.
"Everyone there is of one mind, whether singing, writing, painting – it's the arts," says Carol Marcott, a fiction writer from Rhinelander who has received most of her formal training at School of the Arts. This year represents her 17th year of enrollment at the school.
For Torrey Youngstrum, meeting new people is a big part of what attracted her to the school for the 12th time this year. "This is the week I took forward to every year," says Youngstrum, a potter who has taken photography and fiber art classes.
People interested in next year's school can join the mailing list for regular updates on new classes and programs.
"People make lifelong friends here," says Miranda McClenaghan, director of the School of the Arts. "I tell people, 'You're not just going to learn about art or perfect your art. It will change your life.' I'm told that by dozens of people as they prepare to leave each year."
The school had several new instructors this year, including Leslie Levine, a popular inspirational writer. McClenaghan says that other popular new offerings included two poetry seminars with Denise Sweet, Wisconsin poet laureate, and North Woods landscape painting with Thomas Kleese, an assistant professor at UW-Richland County. Also new was an arts-administration seminar designed to help artists develop the business side of their work.
School of the Arts, says McClenaghan, is the epitome of the Wisconsin Idea of bringing the expertise of the university to the people. "It brings the quality of a University of Wisconsin class in response to interests in the North Woods," she says.

Please take the publication date into consideration for any date references. ] [ Media Contact: TPWD News, firstname.lastname@example.com, 512-389-8030 ] [SL] Jan. 18, 2005 Fourth Crab Trap Cleanup Coming Up; Louisiana Joins Effort AUSTIN, Texas - Since 2002, scores of volunteers have gathered along the Texas coast on a Saturday morning in mid-February to remove 15,499 abandoned crab traps from Texas bays. Hoping to add to that pile, Texas Parks and Wildlife Department officials are gearing up for another round of cleanups Feb. 18-27. And volunteers are needed to assist in a coast-wide effort to remove the many thousands of wire mesh cages used to catch crabs that have been lost or abandoned since last year's cleanup. State game wardens pick up more than 2,500 traps annually, yet there are many more still in the water to foul shrimpers' nets, snag fishermen's lines and create an unsightly view of Texas shores. During the past efforts, Galveston Bay and San Antonio Bay accounted for almost 11,000 traps collected coastwide. Prior to the 77th Legislature of Texas authorizing an abandoned crab trap removal program, only the trap's owner or a TPWD game warden could legally remove a crab trap. To address this problem annually, the Texas Parks and Wildlife Commission voted in 2003 to close crabbing with traps in Texas waters for 10 days beginning on the third Friday of February each year, which this year will be from Feb. 18-27, to remove abandoned crab traps. On the first day of the closure, any crab trap left in the water will be defined as litter and can be removed by anyone. All traps picked up as litter must be disposed of properly and cannot be reused. "Ghost fishing of these derelict traps is a real problem. We have documented 26 species of marine organisms found in these traps - many commercially or recreationally important. To illustrate this problem, last year a volunteer working in Corpus Christi Bay found nine sheepshead, seven toadfish, six gray snapper, four black drum and three spadefish in a single abandoned trap. These traps can also cause a host of problems from tangling shrimp trawls and propellers to creating simple marine debris," explained Art Morris, TPWD trap cleanup coordinator. "Not to mention the deleterious smothering effects these traps have on sensitive habitats, like seagrasses." New this year, the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries is closing their waters in Sabine Lake to coincide with the Texas closure. This will allow both states to cleanup the entire system at the same time. TPWD will be facilitating volunteer trap removal efforts on Saturday, Feb. 19 at several locations coast-wide, weather permitting. In case of inclement weather, the event will be postponed until the next available weekend day, but can not occur after Feb.27. Last year, 3,571 traps were removed by 311 volunteers with the help of more than 50 sponsors. "This program has been recognized by the Coastal Bend Bays Foundation, EPA Gulf of Mexico Program and is currently nominated for a Texas Environmental Excellence Award. Without the wonderful resource conservation ethics that the public has about protecting Texas' bays and estuaries," said Morris, "this program would not be nearly as successful. This year's program is shaping up to be just as big as years past and we should have a great cleanup and a good time doing it. But we still need all the help we can get, especially in Galveston, Matagorda and San Antonio Bays." This year, the Cecil M. Hopper Museum, Coastal Conservation Association Texas, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Coastal Program and Anheuser-Busch are providing major funding to ensure the success of the crab trap removal program. Additional assistance is coming from the Coastal Bend Bays and Estuaries Program, Texas General Land Office, Gulf Coast Connections and many other businesses and organizations volunteering their services. Morris noted that individuals who conduct cleanups on days other than TPWD-facilitated cleanup dates will have to make their own arrangements for trap disposal but can contact a local coordinator for assistance. For those who choose to work on their own, TPWD requests information about the number of traps that they collect. To volunteer or for more information, contact your local TPWD Coastal Fisheries office or one of the regional coordinators Art Morris in Corpus Christi at (361) 825-3356 email@example.com or Bobby Miller in Dickinson at (281) 534-0110 email@example.com.

This follows the first meeting series held recently in southeast Texas. "The black bear is a part of Texas' natural heritage and forest ecology, the Louisiana black bear is on the federal threatened species list and is thus the focus of an ongoing restoration effort in Louisiana, Arkansas and Oklahoma, and black bears appear to be poised for a slow return in East Texas," said Nathan Garner, TPWD wildlife division regional director in Tyler. "Having a proactive plan to manage the situation is good natural resource management." Black bears are already in East Texas to a limited extent, mainly solitary males wandering in from adjacent states. TPWD has documented 47 reliable bear sightings in East Texas since 1977, about two-thirds of those between 1991-2004. The East Texas Black Bear Conservation and Management Plan is now in final draft form and is ready for public release. A team of private landowners, government agencies, timber companies, university researchers, conservation groups and others have been working on the plan since 2002. The plan is supported by more than 30 diverse groups from the public and private sector. Two sub-species of black bear are found in Texas. The American black bear (Ursus americanus americanus), is found mainly in the western and central parts of the state. The Louisiana black bear (Ursus americanus luteolus), is the sub-species found historically in East Texas. The distinction is significant because the Louisiana black bear is on the federal threatened species list, while the American black bear in Texas is not. A casual observer would not be able to tell the two apart. Scientific analysis such as DNA testing is needed for sub-species verification. The Louisiana sub-species is the focus of the East Texas bear plan. The draft management plan includes educating the public about black bears to minimize bear-people conflict potentials and allow reasonable human control of nuisance bears, and encouraging farm and forest management that provides bear habitat as part of a naturally diverse habitat system. One suggestion in the plan is to conduct research to determine the survivability and reproductive capacity of re-introduced black bears in East Texas. The plan recommends first determining if there is public support for this research. If support exists, the plan recommends relocating several adult females with cubs in winter from out-of-state to a large, controlled forest acreage in deep East Texas. Bears in the study group would be fitted with radio transmitters to monitor their movements. The public may also request a hard copy of the plan or send comments by e-mail to email@example.com or by regular mail to Nathan Garner, Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, 11942 FM 848, Tyler, TX 75707. Anyone may view the draft plan on the TPWD Web site. The public is invited to the following public meetings to learn more about the draft East Texas Black Bear Conservation and Management Plan and to have the opportunity to ask questions and comment about the draft plan. All meetings start at 7 p.m. --Jan. 24 - Mount Pleasant, Titus County, Texas Cooperative Extension Building, 1708 Industrial Road. --Jan. 31 - Marshall, Harrison County, Harrison County Courthouse, 200 W.

"We are pleased and proud to present a class that best represents the overall population of Texas," said Col. James Stinebaugh, director of law enforcement at the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department. The class consists of one Asian, three African Americans, 10 Hispanics, 12 females, and 14 white males. The educational background for these individuals is as follows: 16 received degrees in Biology/Science; 14 in Criminal Justice or a related field; six in the Human Sciences; two in Finance/Economics; one in English and one in Interdisciplinary Studies. The diverse class can be attributed to an increase in TPWD's overall recruitment efforts this past year. Lt. Col. Pete Flores of the TPWD law enforcement division, who is bilingual, says, "The ability to speak a second language is a great tool in a profession that requires the warden to communicate with people of all cultures as they hunt and fish in our state. Spanish is our predominant second language in Texas and an officer that understands the language and the culture is more effective and safe due to the increased ability to communicate. The knowledge of the culture allows the warden to avoid confrontation by recognizing cultural issues that, left ignored, might lead to a potential misunderstanding," he said. This class includes an Iraq war veteran, a former NFL player, a housewife, a former member of the Department of Public Safety's narcotics task force and a woman who worked on a Wildlife Management area in South Africa. It also includes a surfer and a stock broker, to name a few of their backgrounds. The six-month academy brings the cadets from throughout the state to Austin where they will live until graduation on July 1. The academy includes 1,200 hours of instruction -- including the 618-hour basic peace officer course. Game warden cadet training also includes hunting, fishing, and boating safety regulations, fish and wildlife identification, search and rescue and public speaking. The academy includes field trips to ranches and lakes for training using mock scenarios. The wardens must also take 16 hours of Spanish as required by the Texas Commission on Law Enforcement Officer Standards and Education, which is the licensing agency for peace officers in the state. The first full week of training included the U.S./Texas Constitutions, Code of Criminal Procedures, swimming, public speaking, and the history of policing/game wardens.

This year marks the 169th anniversary of the signing of the declaration of Texas' independence from Mexico by 59 people representing the various municipalities who convened here March 2, 1836, in a drafty, unfinished building atop a Brazos River bluff to give birth to the Republic of Texas. One of the rare copies of the printed broadside, "Texas Declaration of Independence," as well as other documents authored by many of the declaration's signers, will be on exhibit at the Star of the Republic Museum. Visitors to this free, two-day event at Washington-on-the-Brazos State Historic Site can play a part in a play titled "The Convention of 1836" by interacting with the characters during performances presented throughout the weekend. Other dramatic performances by the Texas Heroes, a renowned dramatic group, will bring to life notable Republic of Texas characters such as Stephen F. Austin and Mary Austin Holley, who were among the historic document's signatories. On Sunday March 6, television personality Ron Stone will emcee a special program honoring the heroic early Texas patriots who drafted and signed the Texas Declaration of Independence. A special performance of "The Convention of 1836," an audience participatory play and foot-stomping musical will be featured. The cutting of a Texas-sized birthday cake will highlight the day's activities.

Adm. Chester W. Nimitz, commander-in-chief of the Pacific fleet, gave his own personal tribute to those who fought there when he said, "Among the Americans who served on Iwo Island, uncommon valor was a common virtue." Highlights of "A Public Tribute to the Heroes of Iwo Jima" include a memorial service with remarks by Gen. Michael W. Hagee, Commandant of the U.S. Marine Corps and the nation's highest ranking Marine, and Oliver North, combat-decorated Marine, author and host of War Stories with Oliver North on Fox News. The commemoration also includes a large-scale living history re-enactment of the capture of Mt. Suribachi and the two flag raisings and a heroes' parade down Main Street. The event is free to all Iwo Jima veterans. Registration deadline is Jan. 31. "We are extending an invitation to all veterans of Iwo Jima to join us for this special weekend," said Rear Adm. C. D. Grojean, USN (Ret.), executive director of the Admiral Nimitz Foundation. "Our commemoration falls during Presidents' Day weekend. We also encourage the sons and daughters of these veterans and the public to take advantage of the holiday to join us in Fredericksburg to honor these heroes of World War II." The Pulitzer Prize-winning photo of Marines raising the American flag on the summit of Mt. Suribachi during the battle for Iwo Jima has become an enduring image of bravery and heroism that is recognized around the world. The invasion of Iwo Jima, a small island located 660 miles south of Tokyo, occurred from Feb. 19 through most of March 1945. Iwo Jima was strategically important as an air base for fighter escorts supporting long-range bombing missions against mainland Japan. More than 250,000 men and 900 ships were involved in the amphibious operation. So fierce was the battle that more U.S. Marines earned the Congressional Medal of Honor for their service there than in any other battle in American history. Major events begin Feb. 19, with the heroes' parade down Main Street. The event will feature Iwo Jima heroes as well as World War II vehicles and equipment and a flyover by World War II aircraft. Special seating is available for registered Iwo Jima veterans who will not be in the parade and their registered guests. The public is invited to view the parade from Main Street. Also that day, several hundred volunteers led by museum staff, will stage two large-scale reenactments, recreating the fighting around the base of Mt. Suribachi and the two flag raisings. Central Texas terrain in Doss, just 30 minutes from Fredericksburg, will become the famous battlefield complete with Japanese pillboxes and defenses and WWII aircraft and vehicles, including tanks, halftracks, trucks, jeeps and the museum's working WWII flamethrower. Participants include reenactors from the U.S., Japan, Australia, Korea and Taiwan. The demonstration, which is open to the public for a nominal entrance fee, will be staged from 2-3:30 p.m. on Feb. 19 and repeated at the same time Feb. 20. Community groups will operate a variety of food and drink booths on-site. On Feb. 19, the living-history demonstration will be dedicated to the heroes of Iwo Jima and special transportation and seating will be provided for Iwo Jima veterans and their registered guests. On Feb. 20, the public will honor the brave men and women from all branches of the armed forces who fought at Iwo Jima at a special memorial service. Gen. Hagee, commandant of the U.S. Marine Corps, will be the keynote speaker. The program also will include North and special guest Hershel Williams, one of only three living Medal of Honor recipients from Iwo Jima. The event, which begins at 11 a.m. at Fredericksburg High School, is open to the public for free, with special seating for registered Iwo Jima veterans. Also included in "A Public Tribute to the Heroes of Iwo Jima" are tours of select attractions in the Texas Hill Country and performances of a USO-type show by the Fredericksburg Theater Company. The registration fee to attend the commemoration is free for all Iwo Jima veterans and $25 per person for family members and guests. The registration fee includes shuttle service in Fredericksburg to commemoration events, special seating at commemoration events, admission to the living history demonstration, and complimentary admission to the National Museum of the Pacific War throughout the weekend. Major events also are open to the public. Iwo Jima veterans and their families may register using registration materials available on our Nimitz Museum Web site. Persons wishing to receive a registration packet by mail should phone (800) 210-9440. Co-sponsors of the event are the City of Fredericksburg, The Houston Endowment, Texas Parks and Wildlife Department; and T.R.U.E Research Foundation. This is the only museum in the world dedicated to telling the entire story of the war in the Pacific during World War II. It is a state historic site managed by TPWD and supported in part by the Admiral Nimitz Foundation. --- On the Net: http://www.nimitz-museum.org/ http://www.fredericksburg-texas.com/ -30- [ Note: This item is more than 12 years old.

Newborn and Infant Care
The pill and breastfeeding
Will using birth control pills right after giving birth harm breast-milk..??
The American Academy of Pediatrics has approved the use of oral contraceptives for use in breastfeeding mothers. However, it is important to note that oral contraceptives may reduce the amount of milk produced by the breastfeeding woman. The earlier in the breastfeeding experience the oral contraceptives are started the greater the effect on the decreased milk production. Prior to beginning oral contraceptives it is important to have your milk well established, and that your baby is gaining weight. If you take oral contraceptives it is important that your baby's health care provider be aware of this so that weight gain can be closely monitored. Also, discuss with your health care provider that you are breastfeeding so that the correct type of oral contraceptive can be prescribed for you.

The Hospital: Your Home Away from Home?
I'm a big fan of giving birth in a hospital, and not just because I'm also a big fan of epidurals. (BEST.) Like many others, I felt fortunate to experience labor and childbirth surrounded by a team of skilled and caring professionals rather than, like, in the back of a covered wagon coming across the prairie, but another major plus in the hospital-birth experience for me was the postpartum support I received from the staff during those intense first hours and days with a newborn.
I had two long but relatively uncomplicated childbirth experiences, and even though I was high as a kite on endorphins for a good stretch of time and had the help of a rockstar partner, my body and brain had still just gone through a Major Ordeal and, to put it nicely, I didn't really have any idea what I was doing with a baby. It was reassuring to have a nurse come in now and then to not only give me a pain pill and a stool softener but to also suggest that, hey, my baby might need a new diaper, and would I like to do it myself or should she be granted the honor? I know not everyone is so lucky, but I had wonderful nurses during my hospital stays and was more than happy to take advantage of their help and advice on everything from swaddling to breastfeeding. Plus, they let us keep a bottle of champagne in their fridge, which was awful nice of them.
Staying at the hospital when you've just had a baby shouldn't really be compared to spending a few days at a resort spa, but...it sorta kinda can be like that, in its way, especially if you can focus on the lay-in-bed-all-day part and ignore the whole cafeteria food situation. When it came time for us to leave the hospital after my first son was born, I was honestly sad to leave. Taking care of a baby is so much easier when you can push a button and an expert will appear at your door in thirty seconds flat. Plus: free diapers.
Hospital experiences vary wildly, as do labor and birth experiences themselves, and I imagine that has a lot to do with how long people stay in the hospital once the baby is born. I have friends whose babies were in the NICU for days, weeks, or even months and couldn't wait to get home because it was a sign their little one had become healthy enough to do so. It was the same with mothers who needed some extra medical attention themselves; they just wanted to get home. When my second son was born, even I was out of the hospital after 24 hours, not because I wasn't enjoying the pampering of the nursing staff but because I had another kid out there I want to go home to.
If you had your baby in a hospital or birthing center, what was your postpartum experience like? How soon did you bring your baby home? Were you eager to get out of the hospital or did you wish you could have stayed just a little bit longer under the care of experts?

I loved the hospital we were at. The care and even food was excellent. I was there for almost a week, my dd was in Nicu for a few days. We were happy to get home though.
I had my dd early Friday evening and we brought her home on Sunday afternoon. The hospital was nice, but I was bored there and couldn't wait to leave.
I just had a hard time for breastfeeding,it was unhappy experience at first and I had fever for several times,it seemed to be all settled after three months.my little one is nearly six months and now I enjoy breastfeeding just much better!
With my first daughter, I was in the hospital for two nights. The nursing staff was amazing. They were so helpful and just all around wonderful. I had my own (big) room and it was nice, I admit it. :-) My second daughter was born 361 days later. Same room, same staff, but this time, I was only in for one night. I guess it was just a little easier the second time around and I did want to get back to my oldest daughter, I wanted to be home before her 1st Birthday which I did by 2 days.
I had a horrible experience with my doctor when I had my son, but the nursing staff was FABULOUS. I ended up having a c-section and appreciated the care I got afterwards. Would gave enjoyed my 3-day stay a bit more except for the darned plastic sheet thing on the bed. It made me sweat like crazy! Ugh!
With my daughter, I only stayed 2 days. Loved my doctor. Nursing staff was okay, but not as good as the first time around. I was ready to go home. :)
i stayed the 3 days with my son and then came home...had one rotten nurse and one jerk male employee but overall everything was ok enough
I had my own suite and was there from Monday evening until Saturday afternoon. The room was great and the staff was great but I was ready to go home the next day but I couldn't since I had a c-section.

|Literary conversations series.
|edited by Virginia C. Fowler.
African-Americans and established Giovanni, in the minds of many, as a "revolutionary," even militant, poet. The image was not altogether accurate, yet it became the gauge by which her later work was assessed. In these conversations with Giovanni the reader can follow the evolution of her distinctive voice and the sensibility of the poet's mind. She chooses her words carefully, while giving an impression of spontaneity and even of glibness. Included here is an excerpt.
From her conversation with James Baldwin, an interview that first aired on the television program Soul!, later published as A Dialogue. Also included is an excerpt from A Poetic Equation, her lengthy talk with the poet Margaret Walker. In this exchange of ideas and opinions with Walker a young poet new to the literary world assumes the role of spokesperson for a generation.

Kelly's RV Park, White Springs, Florida
Date of Stay:
March, 2009 -
Overall Rating:
Stayed a month for the rate. Nice, quiet park without a lot of activities, but mostly seniors which was fine with us. Monthly sites were large with patios, and excellent water pressure and power. Older park, but being updated, but not a park for families with kids, but the best park for people with dogs, People that like to hike, to mountain bike, as there are miles and miles of trails off site. We would stay here again. We camped at Kelly's RV Park in a Motorhome.
Parnell Creek RV Park, Woodville, Alabama
Date of Stay:
December, 2008 -
Overall Rating:
Stayed for 3 months for the this rate. Was a very clean park. Managers were both very friendly and helpful. We were here in the off season, and park was not busy but found it to be very comfortable. The only negatives we would give it were, the Wi-Fi left a lot to be desired as to reliablity, and lack of a patio. We have learned that having a patio is now at the top of our list because of mud on rainy days and dirt being tracked into RV. We would stay here again. We camped at Parnell Creek RV Park in a Motorhome.
Harpers Ferry / Civil War Battlefields KOA, Harpers Ferry, West Virginia
Date of Stay:
October, 2008 -
Overall Rating:
I stayed here for 10 days. Check in was easy and everybody was very friendly. I don't think the check in people were to familiar with site requirements for a 40' class A. I told them I need Wi-Fi and open sky for satellite TV. They put me on a uneven site that was hard to get into: they had to come and cut branches off trees to get me in. When I got in, it was not level and trees blocked the signal. I went back to office and after some checking came up with a great site. As usual they had lots to do for in season stuff, but being here in October things were slowing down on activities which was fine with me as I am a single RV'er. Even though I am a KOA member I will only use KOA when no other choice is available as they are always on the higher end of the price scale. Wi-Fi, a patio, pool and a level site, then I am happy. I can't justify the high priced parks. I gave it a six as it is a nice park but could use a little work to make it easier for big rigs. We camped at Harpers Ferry / Civil War Battlefields KOA in a Motorhome.
