Twitter apologizes for mishandling of Guy Adams' suspension - latimes.com: "Twitter apologized for its mishandling of journalist Guy Adams' suspension from the social network.
Adams, the Los Angeles correspondent for the British newspaper The Independent, was suspended from Twitter on Sunday after tweeting the corporate email address of Gary Zenkel, the president of NBC Olympics. Twitter has implied it considers posting corporate email addresses without permission a violation of its rules.
The company on Tuesday said it erred when its team working with NBC alerted the network's staff about the tweet and told them it violated Twitter's rules. The Twitter team then encouraged NBC to report the violation."

Five guys take same photo for 30 years - CNN.com
Five guys take same photo for 30 years - CNN.com: "(CNN) -- When five teenagers sat down and posed for a picture at Copco Lake in 1982, they didn't plan on making it a tradition. But that's what it became.
Every five years for the past three decades, John Wardlaw, John Dickson, Mark Rumer, Dallas Burney and John Molony have been meeting at the California lake and taking the same photo.
The first photograph of the high school friends was just happenstance. Wardlaw, known as Wedge in the group, had a family cabin at the lake where the friends gathered in July 1982.
While hanging out on the deck of the cabin, Dickson, or J.D., set his 35-millimeter camera on self-timer to take a group photo."
