I just had my mind expanded this morning by Laureen Hudson's hour long online session on how to use the internet to get a message out. Laureen's session “Creating an Online Presence," gave me a wealth of information in a short time and impressed me with how many people are out there who completely rely on the internet for their information. I needed that, and maybe you do, too. - Ina May Gaskin I just hung up the phone from doing the hour long session with
Laureen Hudson on “Creating an Online Presence”. Laureen’s know-how
and expertise were enough to wake up even the birth oldtimers like me and
Ina May to the many unused opportunities of the internet. Laureen’s
engaging and easygoing teaching style made even those scary (to me) terms
like “hypertext, streaming, wordpress, technorati, feedreader and trackback”
start to make sense. Her passion is to reach the generation of young
women who have not yet given birth BEFORE they fall into the black hole
of aggressive obstetrics. I came away from the class today with lots
of ways to improve my website and make it more modern, usable and interesting
for readers. This class will run again this coming Friday (August
22) and I heartily recommend it.
Cost: $35 per session Each session will be 60 minutes in length Creating An Online Presence

From: C-upi@clari.net (UPI) Organization: Copyright 1997 by United Press International Date: Wed, 30 Apr 1997 1:03:04 PDTNEW TREATMENT FOR GENITAL WARTS: A new treatment is on the way for genital warts, which afflict about 2.5 million men and women in the United States alone. Dr. Eugene Basiliere of the South Bay Women's Health Group in San Diego, reports encouraging results from an injectable gel spiked with a drug used in cancer treatment. The gel contains the drug fluorouracil, nicknamed 5-FU, plus epinephrine to constrict blood vessels. It cleared all the warts in 61 percent of the 270 patients in tests and brought partial relief to the remainder of patients. In the test group, the average warts measured two inches (5 mm) square. Some of the patients had had their warts as long as 10 years, and some had up to 19 warts. Matrix Pharmaceuticals of Fremont, Calif., is funding development of the treatment.
