The commercial sale and slaughter of our wild Clint Eastwood Carl Reiner horses last year was just the latest example of how far we as Americans Keith Richards have lowered our standards of decency. Mike Epps Will Estes Eric Roberts The news of 41 wild horses being sold to buyers who immediately Kid Rock resold them directly or indirectly to the horse slaughterhouse in Illinois is Shelley Fabares heartbreaking, but sadly not unexpected. Unless Congress acts now to Theresa Russell end this tragic turn of events, more horses will meet a terrible fate.

Following their faithful service to humankind, horses two-time World should not be killed so diners can eat their meat abroad.

  • American Heritage Center
    UNIVERSITY OF WYOMING AMERICAN HERITAGE CENTER GUIDE TO ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY RESOURCES Child actress Mary Jane Irving with Bessie Barriscale and Ben Alexander in the 1918 silent film Heart of Rachel. Mary Jane Irving papers, American Heritage Center. Compiled by D. Claudia Thompson and Shaun A. Hayes 2009 PREFACE When the University of Wyoming began collecting the papers of national entertainment figures in the 1970s, it was one of only a handful of repositories actively engaged in the field. Business and industry, science, family history, even print literature were all recognized as legitimate fields of study while prejudice remained against mere entertainment as a source of scholarship. There are two arguments to be made against this narrow vision. In the first place, entertainment is very much an industry. It employs thousands. It requires vast capital expenditure, and it lives or dies on profit. In the second place, popular culture is more universal than any other field. Each individual’s experience is unique, but one common thread running throughout humanity is the desire to be taken out of ourselves, to share with our neighbors some story of humor or adventure. This is the basis for entertainment. The Entertainment Industry collections at the American Heritage Center focus on the twentieth century. During the twentieth century, entertainment in the United States changed radically due to advances in communications technology. The development of radio made it possible for the first time for people on both coasts to listen to a performance simultaneously. The delivery of entertainment thus became immensely cheaper and, at the same time, the fame of individual performers grew.

"K.B.I. Agent Harold Nye has speculated that Capote spoke to more people connected to the murder of the Clutters than did the Bureau. These interviews took place as Capote spent the better part of four years tromping around western Kansas, amassing thousands of pages of notes. This research, however, only accounts for an element of the book’s success, for Capote transformed it with a novelist’s imagination. The result serves as a meditation on suffering as he dramatizes cherished moments from the last days of Nancy Clutter, the sleepless nights of detective Al Dewey, and the tormented thoughts of Perry Smith." --Paul Fecteau, Professor of English Washburn University, Topeka Please use this site as resource for both personal & classroom information as you read and study the book.

A Wee Bit of Scottish Humor One winter morning a Glasgow couple was listening to the radio over breakfast. They hear the announcer say, "We are going to have 8 to 10 inches of snow today. You must park your car on the even-numbered side of the street, so the snow plows can get through." Norman's wife goes out and moves her car. A week later while they are eating breakfast again, the radio announcer says, "We are expecting 10 to 12 inches of snow today. You must park your car on the odd-numbered side of the street, so the snow plows can get through." Norman's wife goes out and moves her car again. The next week they are again having breakfast, when the radio announcer says "We are expecting 12 To 14 inches of snow today. You must park............" Then the electric power goes out. Norman's wife is very upset, and with a worried look on her face she says, "Honey, I don't know what to do. Which side of the street do I need to park on so the snow plows can get through?" With the love and understanding in his voice that all men who are married exhibit, Norman says.......... “Why don't you just leave it in the garage this time?” Flowers of the Forest John Forsythe – Death of An Icon John Forsythe , the debonair actor whose matinee-idol looks, confident charm and mellifluous voice helped make him the star of three hit television series, died on Thursday, April 1, 2010, at the age of 92, at his home in Santa Ynez, Calif.

  • The University of Tulsa • Class of 1960 Memory Book Greetings from the President
    The University of Tulsa • Class of 1960 Memory Book Greetings from the President Dear Friends: As members of the TU Class of 1960, you have witnessed dramatic changes – in civil rights, technology, commerce, and in the realm of what is possible for humankind. You have certainly noted the dramatic changes to our campus since your day, as well. In the past decade alone, we have doubled the value of our campus through an aggressive program of construction that continues today with our Lorton Performance Center and engineering expansion. For all the physical changes you can see, many others are taking place in less obvious areas. Year by year, our student body is becoming more academically distinguished and more geographically diverse. Our research enterprise is expanding and last year attracted a record $22 million in funding from outside sources. And we are increasingly partnering with other organizations – Gilcrease Museum, OU-Tulsa, the George Kaiser Family Foundation, the Kendall-Whittier Neighborhood Association and many others – to bring about change in our community. We are grateful when our alumni return to help us envision change and build an exciting future. You do that through service on our advisory boards, giving to our Annual Fund, mentorship of our student interns and hiring of our graduates, active participation in your local alumni chapter, and in many other ways. Your very participation in Homecoming 2010 helps strengthen and renew our family. As this weekend winds down and you leave campus to return to your regular routines, I encourage each of you to remember that you are part of TU’s ongoing success.
