A hybrid website/program is being unveiled that may just change the way online users look at newsletters. Called, quite simply, "The Newsletter Reader," it is both simple and ingenious. By pulling together all the newsletters for a given specialty into a reader that will track each source for its most up-to-date mailing, then offering access via a simple upload program, it delivers these newsletters directly to the end-user's desktop. All they need do is open the icon to check on the latest news from their favorite newsletters. So there is no more need to keep old copies to reference a particular article, no more slogging through email to find the newsletter. Because each time a user opens it, they are given access to the latest editions of each newsletter available from those included in the Reader. When asked what prompted the innovation, Michel said, "I developed it simply because I was tired of searching for articles in the newsletters I subscribed to or keeping...

Studies indicate that communica...

The definition of love is the subject of considerable debate, enduring speculation and thoughtful introspection. The difficulty of finding a universal definition for love is typically tackled by classifying it into types, such as passionate love, romantic love, and committed love. These types of love can often be generalized into a level of sexual attraction. In common use, love has two primary meanings, the first being an indication of adoration for another person or thing, and the second being a state of relational status. Love is an act of identifying with a person or thing, capable of even including oneself. Dictionaries tend to define love as deep affection or fondness. In colloquial use, according to polled opinion, the most favored definitions of love involve altruism, selflessness, friendship, union, family, and bonding or connecting with another.

The Future of America? A hungry boy stole food from a market, was caught, and his right hand was chopped off. The next week the same boy, stole fruit from an orchard, again was spotted, and his left hand was chopped off. A few weeks later, leaving the back door to a bakery open, his mouth full and eyes no less vibrant, the boy was caught once again. The men of the town were stumped, what was to be chopped off next? The men of the town did not know what to do, until someone offered giving the boy a job. The boy never stole again. As difficult as it may be to remain open-minded when addressing a situation, sometimes the alternative solutions are better than that of the extreme. Throughout American history, there is evidence of over-coming close mindedness. This evidence is seen in women's voting rights and African American's freedom. With the increasing youth violence present in America, we are once again given a task. This task, like that of Women's Suffrage and Civil Rights...
