Sheila Stroup
Sheila T. Stroup (born 1943, Covington, Louisiana) is a "Living" section columnist for the New Orleans ''Times-Picayune''. Her column, rather than dealing with the celebrated news events of the day, invariably has to do with perceptions of the otherwise-unnoticed aspects of life, particularly in her native Northshore Region. Part of her style is to refer to her husband Merwin by his surname alone, ''Stroup''. A frequent topic for Sheila Stroup is dogs. In 1999 her dog Harry was elected Grand Duke in the Canine Court of the Mystic Krewe of Mardi Paws. Stroup was a featured speaker on the 1996 Business Week program at Southeastern Louisiana University, of which she is alumna.

Zip To Zap
The Zip to Zap riot of May 9–11, 1969, in Zap, North Dakota, was originally intended as a spring break diversion. As a result of an article that originally appeared in the '' The Spectrum'', student newspaper at North Dakota State University (NDSU), that was later picked up by the Associated Press, between 2000 and 3000 people descended upon the small town of Zap, located in Mercer County in the west central part of the state, nearly from the NDSU campus. The original gathering is sometimes referred to as the Zap Festival. Revelers drank copious quantities of alcohol. As the small country town's resources became depleted, the amiable mood began to turn ugly and Zap's residents asked the visitors to leave. Some complied, but others stayed behind. The event became a full-fledged riot. The National Guard was called in and the crowd was dispersed. The Zip to Zap became the first (and to date only) official riot in North Dakota that had to be put down by the National Guard. Ba ...
