A little about me...
They say that a picture is worth a thousand words and I hope that is true in my case because I am reluctant to speak openly about myself in this forum. I am considered a woman with class and I'd like to find a man who is somewhat sophisticated.
I enjoy being at home but enjoy going out with friends as well. Power walking is a great way for me to stay in shape and I actually love it when I have a walking buddy to talk with. I am a regular in the yoga classes and once in a while I go dancing.
About the one I'm looking for...
Looking for someone who is honest, kind, personable and intelligent. You must be financially and physically in shape. I am not into sports but would like to see you enjoy yourself. Would love to find my soul- mate if there really is such a thing. If you are interested in me I need to see several recent pictures and a personal note. I am serious about finding a man who eats right and takes care of himself.
I'd just like to add...
I am soft spoken, sweet, and intelligent. My favorite programming on TV
is usually on WKNO Channel 10. Cannot do "reality" TV. Enjoy many types of music from Classical to Country and Oldies. If there is dance music playing then I cannot sit still.

The station will launch a revamped lineup beginning Jan. 3.
KFWB/980 AM announced Thursday it is adding consumer expert Bob McCormick and life coach Les Brown to the line-up Jan. 3 as part of changes following the departure of Laura Schlessinger to Sirius Radio.
McCormick will be on 9 to 11 a.m. weekdays with "Money 101" featuring content from The Wall Street Journal. His current "Money 101" segments will continue to air on sister station KNX/1070 AM.
Dave Ramsey will host "Total Money Makeover" from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. KFWB cited increased ratings since Ramsey started on 980 AM in September, 2009, adding that Ramsey's earlier sold-out appearance at an event in Los Angeles has prompted another appearance, March 24 at the Alex Theatre.
Brown will be on from 2 to 4 p.m. weekdays. The station announcement said, "Brown has risen to national prominence by delivering a high-energy, positive and empowering message which advises people how to shake off mediocrity and live up to their greatness.''
Penny Griego and Phil Hulett will continue to anchor news from 6 to 9 a.m.; Maggie McKay and Michael Shappee will anchor the afternoon news from 4 to 7 p.m.
No changes were announced in weeknight programming. Steve Carver, senior vice president and market manager for CBS radio stations in Los Angeles, said,
"Airing Dave Ramsey's program entirely live will give Southern Californians a much bigger opportunity to call into the show. And like Dave, Bob McCormick and Les Brown are all about helping people live better lives with information many people are seeking out in today's challenging times."

Kris Humphries to Seek Marriage Annulmentby Hilton Hater at . Comments
Kris Humphries can finally relate to the rest of America: a new report states this reality star is hoping to pretend that his marriage to Kim Kardashian never existed.
According to People, rumors that Humphries is reluctant to sign divorce papers are actually true. An insider claims Kris is planning to file the necessary paper work that would annul the union, thereby clearing the record of his marriage to the giant-breasted professional celebrity.
The procedure of annulment is typically reserved for cases where the couple can reasonably claim the marriage ought to be retroactively invalidated. A common argument used in these instances? That alcohol played a major role in an impromptu wedding. (See Spears, Britney and Alexander, Jason).
Other legal grounds for an annulment include incest, forced consent, fraud... wait, might Kris Humphries be planning to make a court-documented case that this marriage should be voided because it was a scheme all along to defraud the public?!?
He would be a true American hero if so.
UPDATE: Yes, Kris has filed for an annulment and, yes, the petition is based on Kim "defrauding" him into a marriage that was meant solely for the purposes of her reality show, a fact he claims he was never made aware of. This is awesome!
Kim Kardashian had a taste of fame a while back when hanging out with Paris Hilton and since has been aidectdd to being talked about and looked at. She might play nice and innocent while talking in her baby voice and complementing everyone out there just because she understand that playing the nice card is the way to go. I'm so super certain that she's enjoying all of this even as we speak. I mean this means more magazine cover /w the eneditable coverex clusive Kim breaks her silence which of course they would only do for cash bcs in reality we all now that she never EVER shuts up about her every move or personal life?! Pathetic how we allowe this idiots to get wealthy doing things like this.
The marriage was a farce just as their show is a farce. What else can you expect from divas. How much do they pay to put their show on the air?
I dont know if it was a stunt or not, but it sure appeared that way. As far as why she cries, she is a drama queen. She would have to be to marry someone who would disrespect her in front of her family.
I thought it had to be a stunt cause I could'nt see her with such a l LOOSER! you ever see her mom throw a hissy fit. Well its like they say, the apple does'nt fall far from the tree!
that being said I woult try to tame that shrew so I could marry her and then tap that sexy ass!
Rach: You spend way too much time watching TV. Bet you are the town busybody, and were beaten up lots in school for being a tattle-tale. Get a life.
Rach, do you know Kim personally, by which I mean other than the perception you get from watching her on television? No, me neither.Not in the slightest.
Go Marge!
To Rach: you can go ahead & support gold-digging, trashy, landfill garbage Kardashian against Humphries. She is no lady and definitely no beauty..take off the two inches of mask she wears, she looks like any ordinary person on the street. And yes, she is 5'2"..I am the same heighth and I wear a size 2 petite. She gives the appearance of a sz 18 trying to look like a sz2. Sorry, she & her clan are sleazy, creepy crawlers...!!
The K's made my tummy roll! Sad state of the world and all us in it when a Mother can use the fact that she raised sluts and makes millions on their backs!
She took the fact that her girl had sex tapes and it's sick!!
I stumbled on this. I try hard to not add to their shameless glory.
As a Mom I'd be so sad if a daughter of mine behaved the ways her girls do! What has become of people standing up to say this is a bad thing? Now you're considered backward and bad if you don't agree with such behavior. Well I'm one backward American who will always believe that "In God We Trust" is why this country is blessed!
I cannot believe that Kim K would do something like that. She should know that the ratings for her shows can go down as well.
Yes! Kudos to Kris. I am so sick about that Cardasian (with C) lot! Kris was sooo duped! Just saying that she's keeping the wedding presents and the engagement ring tells what kind of person Kim is. The public was also duped and I can's just imagine anyone watching that program that smell of rat and stinks like skunk. Down with the phony Kardasians!

Sounds good, I think Ill check out the new flash series.
good job Tony.Barry Allen 4 ever
And there totally is a surprise cameo in issue #1.
lol, totally awesome editing Ana & Joey ;)
A Filipino? I'm both excited and disappointed.
Kinda amuses me that DC is trying to bury Wally as if he didnt exist and here we have Buccellato wearing a Wally West t-shirt :)
Where's Silkcuts, I'm confident he would love this interview.
Charlie Sheen lol. Still winning huh? And nice on the Filipino bad guy, especially since Manapul is Filipino-Canadian.
Francis Manapul seems kinda punch drunk/sleep deprived. LIke he's at the level of fatigue where everything is hilarious and awesome.
I think I am going to read this series.
I absolutely love Francis Manapul. His artwork is what cemented The Flash's latest series as one of my favorites, and Barry Allen as one of my favorite characters. I cannot wait for this new series. It's easily the one I'm looking forward to the most in the new 52.
Man wish Michael Turner was still alive RIP man he would have made it look awesome and wish Waid or Johns did the writing. Bring back Wally. Barry's fine but let Wally have his own comic.
I'm excited for this one. Sounds like a pretty well constructed beginning.

During the warm months they venture out into an amazing outdoor cat enclosure to lounge in the sun and fresh air.

"Hi, my name is Jezebel. I wasn't expecting to find myself homeless at 13, yet here I am! It's been difficult for me and I tend to be guarded at first around people and other cats. I've had my heart broken once and I won't let it happen again! For Christmas, I wish to find someone who won't overlook me because I'm old, and who lavishes me with love and understanding."
Home for the Holidays runs until December 31st. All Adoption fees waived on older and special needs cats. Included with cats like Jezebel is a litter box, scoop, cat bed, cat litter and pack of food!

If WWE could finally put together a deal that will entice him to sign, Sting could possibly make his debut in the company by being the person to induct the Ultimate Warrior into the hall of fame during Wrestlemania 30 weekend. The two were tag team partners at the beginning of their careers.
There are still talks that MVP could be making his debut for TNA during the upcoming episode of Impact Wrestling, which is being filmed in Scotland. He continues to deny the rumors on Twitter by stating that he has not even had discussions with Dixie Carter, but many believe he is just trying to protect the surprise.
Davey Richards and Eddie Edwards made their TNA debut on Impact Wrestling last week, and word coming from backstage is that each of them has been signed to a one year contract. The former ROH stars are expected to travel with the company for a tour of England soon.
Low Ki has stayed true to his words about retirement and has not been wrestling as of late, but he recently decided to get involved in the business on a short term basis. Along with former WWE star Matt Striker, he was recently spotted at House of Glory, guest training some performers.
Low Ki, who wrestled in WWE as Senshi, has decided to officially retire from professional wrestling.
Former WWE stars MVP and Low Ki, then known as Senshi, have been training in MMA together.

Non-retro naked street-rod motorcycle was a brave marketing decision from Honda. Unfortunately the Honda CB1100 X-11's sales were slow and the plug was pulled quickly. Often thought of as an unfaried Honda CBR1100XX Super BlackBird – but it's not. The Honda CB1100 X-11 is indecently powerful, big, very well put together and slightly iffy in the corners.

Detuned Blade engine, fabulously easy handling and throttle response and great ergonomics make the Honda CBF1000 hooningly enjoyable, yet novice friendly and a great value all-rounder. It's just a shame the Honda CBF1000 looks so dull.

Unlike Chuck, I don't give a damn about people ooh'ing and ahh'ing over a dunk like LeBron's or DeAndre Jordan's. Getting your balls busted for getting posterized in basketball is nothing new… and in today's internet age, that means Photoshops, tweets, tumblrs, wikipedia edits and whatever else. As far as I'm concerned, fans will spend a day or two getting their jollies about it and they'll move on when Blake Griffin catches someone else. But that doesn't apply to LeBron's comments about the dunk, which elicit a Liz Lemon eye roll "It was one of my better ones," James told reporters in Miami. "And the fact that it happened to J.T. made it even that much sweeter. Because I think we all know what J.T. talks, and he talks too much sometimes and I'm glad it happened to him." The only thing that could have made that quote palatable would have been a Sideshow Bob-type follow up "I'm well aware of the irony of trash talking in order to decry it, so don't bother pointi

There's a reason why there is three different locations of this restaurant all placed in perfect spots and this along with the quality of the food is the reason why this place is so successful. They must be doing something right.

If you want to complete the extremely daunting task of tracking down all 50 legendary weapons, you'll need to find some friends. Only about half of the 50 weapons can be collected without hopping on Xbox LIVE to trade with other players. This setup means most of the legendary weapons you find on your playthrough are randomly generated. Here are the locations of what you can get without trading (or begging).
Tip: if you really need an upper hand trading on XBL for missing weapons, make your character a hot girl and pretend to be a girl in real life. Then promise to send nude pics for the item. Works like a charm!
Check out all our other Fable 3 Collectibles Guides right here!
Keys Guide | Rare Book Guide | Auroran Flowers Guide | Gnome Guide | Legendary Weapons Guide
12 Legendary Weapons can simply be bought from shops around Albion. There's nothing secretive about finding these - just check out each town's weapon suppliers.
1. The Bonemasher is hard to miss as it lies in an ordinary chest right on the path during an early quest in Mourning wood. You can find it by entering Mourningwood from the Hole and simply looking left before you enter the fort.
2. There is a 10 Silver Key chest in Mourningwood holding another weapon. Coming into the region from the Hole, follow the path as it spirals up to the left to find the chest.
3. You'll be rewarded with a legendary weapon if you can beat the high score while playing the Mourningwood Fort mortar mini-game.
4. Exiting the temple, take an immediate right. The weapon is inside a 20 Silver Key Chest.
5. Behind the Mistpeak Demon Door lies a legendary weapon. You'll need to have a friend from Xbox LIVE come with you, and you'll both need to have spent the 5 guild seals on the lovers expression pack.
6. Very near the Millfields Demon Door lies this 20 Silver Key chest.
7. At the top of the steps of the Ossuary there is a rather obvious gold door. Inside lies a legendary weapon.
8. When you enter the Sunset House area, head to the middle then go right through the forest. You'll find a gold door, and inside is a legendary weapon.
9. This weapon is found inside the Sunset House mansion, which only appears at night. In order to make it accessible, you need to manipulate the statues in the gazebo at night so that they match their daytime poses. Inside the mansion, complete the chess quest, then use the door to the right of the entrance (assuming you are entering). Look into the mirror to find the blue orbs. On your side, walk to where you see the blue orbs in the mirror's reflection. Do this 3 times, then vault through the mirror. In this alternate world, go back to the house's entrance room and shoot the green orb resting on the table. This opens a door behind you. Enter that room to find a chest containing the weapon. Phew!
10. You obtain the Gnomewrecker by finding all 50 gnomes and finishing the "Gnomes Are Evil" quest.

Volkswagen has been struggling here in the US, but in emerging markets the German automaker is among the best. VW has been a big player in China since way before it was cool, and now Mr. Winterkorn and co. are focusing their attention on the booming India market. VW is planning on producing 240,000 vehicles per year in India by 2012, and it's using two small cars to supply much of the volume. The size and price of the Polo compact and the upcoming Up! minicar are perfect for the India market, and Europe's largest automaker plans on building both vehicles at its new plant in Chakan. Up! will go head to head with its low-cost Indian market competition with a price tag in the $7,500 price range.
The Passat has already been on sale in India since November, the next generation Jetta and the ultra-luxury Phaeton are scheduled to hit India's VW dealerships in the next couple years. With VW's vast expertise making and selling its cars in low-cost markets, the company that created the original Beetle has a great chance to make hay in the land of Gandhi and the Taj Mahal.

Chained CPI: Obama's small step
The answer is that the right has tried for years to have the federal government use chained CPI when calculating the annual benefit increases for Social Security, and earlier this year President Obama hinted that he might be open to the idea. The activist left must have felt incredibly disappointed this week when Obama released his 2014 budget and it applied chained CPI to Social Security benefit increases.
This was Obama's big concession to Republicans on entitlements. Chained CPI will slow the automatic rate of growth of Social Security benefits by about 0.2 to 0.3 percentage points. That's it. For that, Obama wants a bunch of new tax increases and to take most other entitlement reforms off the table.
That is hardly a deal fiscally responsible members of Congress - of either party - can take. But the Obama concession on chained CPI is good news still. It is an acknowledgment from the President that the growth of entitlements, including Social Security, is a serious financial problem. It is a small step toward recognizing our fiscal reality.

How is the Recession affecting your relationship with food??
from not at all to your appetite and food interest?? how often you eat out?? what you eat?? what and how much you buy at the supermkt? your portion sizes at home??
My heightened awareness of the value of my dollar is forcing me to be more inventive and creative. It's (at least for me) easy to get comfortable in a rut of the usual things I cook and eat. I've already switched to buying whole carrots and peeling/slicing them myself and other similar practices. I'm choosing more from the bulk bins (gravity one only, of course) for things like cereal now. I have become more selective in what organic products I buy. I have also switched to entertaining at home instead of meeting at restaurants more often. Right now my brother and I are considering splitting the cost of a Costco Membership. Oh, and I have tried to cut back on my bread consumption, for dietary reasons as well. This. May. Be. The. Hardest...!
As a freelance writer, I tend to act like there's a recession even when times are flush. So if anything, the only difference for me is that we're actually eating out *more* than we used to, to make sure that our neighborhood favorites are getting some business.
Avoiding packaged snack foods (anything in individual portions, like those 100 calorie packs is an especially bad value). Not buying stuff until it's really needed (example - only one flavor of preserves in the fridge, no buying any more flavors until it's done). Especially with "non essentials" waiting until the item is on sale. Really focusing on not letting produce get bad so I toss it out, wastefully...making lots of soup. Trying to cut back on animal protein portions (stealth method to fool carnivore hubby is stir fry with half chicken and half tofu). Stocked freezer with chicken when it was 50% off.
When my husband and I go out to eat it's more likely to be pizza, since that is good, abundant, and reasonable in my neighborhood. Trying to eat at family-owned places as much as possible when we do go out once a week. Noticed that I don't feel good about indulgent meals (business lunches) now that we are tightening down the finances on a personal level.
No difference in my usual habits, but I am going on vacation next week and in my restaurant research the $150 tasting menus are a lot less attractive than they used to be. For example, my food budget for a week in NYC 2 years ago was $200 a day (which made for a lot of amazing food & tasting menus), my food budget for 12 days in Australia is going to be closer to half that; in truth I'll probably go over, but I'm thinking about only two or three high end dinners for the whole trip instead of almost every night. Even with a good exchange rate, restaurants with $50 mains and $20 desserts seem a little much. I'm pretty sure I'll have this job until my contract is finished this summer, but after that I may be scrounging for decent employment - I'm a pastry chef, and unfortunately we are sometimes seen as less essential to the operation.
What recession?
My dear Daddy always said, "If you always live like it's hard times, you won't notice if hard times come." That was his attitude about wasting money. Not about life in general and we never wanted for things or lived like poor folks, but it was some of the best advice Daddy ever gave us.
It was just habit in our family. Think twice before pissing money away on stuff you didn't need or could do without.
Mama always checked the weekly food ads and planned our menus from those, used coupons, and shopped carefully. Shop from a list and be careful of impulses.
We were pretty much scratch cooks in my household and didn't depend on carry-out or prepared foods. Packaged processed foods are the devil's work.
The food was always terrific but it probably helped that I was raised in New Orleans with a Cajun Daddy and Creole Mama who loved great food.
We ate out faithfully once a week or more, had friends over or went to eat at friends' or relatives' homes once a week or more. All within the budget.
It's a mindset. Buy carefully. Think. Plan. Use it up. Make it do. Do without, if you have to. Don't waste.
re: MakingSense
Well said, Making Sense. I agree completely.
We have not changed our habits in buying groceries in the least, since we've already made a commitment to live lower on the food chain (with occasional luxuries) years ago, BUT we have changed our eating out habits in that where we did not do it more than once a month previously, we have gone to twice a month. Same reasons stated upthread: we want the mom-and-pop independents to stay around. No extravagance, just the pleasure of have a meal prepared for you and not having to do the dishes!
Other than that, business as usual in the victual procurement.
I wonder, though, if a lot of people who have suddenly gone from steaks and oysters to lentils and rice are reflecting a actual change in their income, or are finally living within means (i.e., not charging a lot of high dollar foods to pay for later versus enjoying soups, breads and salads). Not that any of us are innocent of splurging once in a while, but it seems the splurge became the norm, and now the ticket has come due.
Your Daddy had it right.
re: cayjohan
You have a good attitude, Cayjohan. You likely never had a sense of entitlement so the decision to live below your means didn't damage your ego.
Now you can see that a decision to eat out helps the larger society instead of being a selfish one. You can afford it and it helps others while giving you pleasure too.
Daddy was remarkable as were so many of what Tom Brokaw called The Greatest Generation.
I have come to believe that their greatest gift was their sense of gratitude after having survived the Great Depression, WWII, and Korea.
More than 20 years of difficult times after which they breathed a collective sigh of relief, rejoiced, and tried to give their children what they had missed. And they did it without complaining, often reveling in the pleasures that the Post-War revival made available to them. I remember their stories of the Depression and wartime as tales of victories, never whining about missing years, lost opportunities, what could have been.
So many of them never lost that gift of knowing what was important. Family, friends, and living for the things that count in life that can't be bought with money.
The median age of the American electorate is 43 - that means that they were born in 1965 or later. Many of them barely knew member of this Greatest Generation. In our transient society, large numbers don't even grow up near their own grandparents. How many want to listen to "old people"?
Heck, I'm part of the post-war baby boom and many think that I'm too old to be relevant. It surprises some of them that I can use a computer and a Blackberry.
Maybe this is the reason it's so hard for many to give up the easy life that they've been so used to their entire lives.
We have had so much so easily for so many decades in America that we've forgotten how to be grateful.
re: MakingSense
I learned how to *cook* in the late 60s/early 70s. Then I learned how to *eat* in the early 80s. THEN I learned how to *plan* in the late 80s with the arrival of a child. Each of these learnings - cooking, eating, planning - has been informed by my parents' being born into and growing up in difficult financial times. I remembered their stories, and internalized them.
We eat better because of those stories.
Your screen name does you credit with your discourse on entitlement and food. I'm wagering you are eating well and not bemoaning loss-via-recession, foodwise, anyway ;-).
re: MakingSense
MS-You know, every comment you make is spot on. I always agree with you. This is rare for me.
For years I have told people to save their money now, so that when they retire, they can eat real tuna instead of cat food tuna.
Although you say things more eloquently than I can..
i'm a grad student. i don't think my life has changed too much... i'm really good at saving money now.
i very rarely eat out--if i do, it's gotta be worth it (as in delicious!)
most of the time, i make my own meals and bring them to studio, but also because i much more enjoy my own cooking.
lots of fruits and veg, beans, rice, lentils, and tofu. lots of spices. good quality oils.
whole foods only! they are less pricey, and offer more satisfaction.
re: dumpycactus
This exactly. As a grad student, I've been good these last few years buying good cheap food, and making it delicious myself.
I'm excited though that now my co-workers and fellow students and I sit around and talk about what we're cooking and making, because everyone's doing it. I used to be the girl who brought mysterious tupperware containers to work for lunch while everyone else paid $8 for a salad.
Now we swap recipes and talk about food. I've sort of rediscovered some cool things about them all as we talk and eat. So, it's a silver lining to being grad-level poor.
Ever since I got laid off I've had way more time to cook. It's kind of nice actually, cooking more fresh meals instead of making a big batch of something a few times a week and then eating leftovers (full-time job + usually also working on a play meant 12+ hours of work most days). Other than that I'm maybe making fewer Whole Foods impulse purchases but not much else has changed.
I've been in my own personal recession for almost two years now, so my cooking and dining habits haven't changed. What has changed is that my friends have stopped inviting me to restaurants I can't afford and have started asking for my low-budget home-cooking secrets.
Even before this stuff happened I had decided not to waste anything. I find it makes me more creative. I try not to waste any part of the food. I cook at home more and eat out less. I am becoming very picky where I eat out. If the value is not there, I don't bother.
Our habits have not changed for the most part. Still going out for dinner 3-4 times a week and lunches about 4x week and usually a brunch thrown in on the weekend. Our supermarket buying hasn't changed either, nor have our portion sizes.
What recession? I'm still living as if it were the depression. We grew up relatively poor in money in the 50s - 60s but as rich as one could be in terms of family, food, cooking, friends, and education. My parents certainly taught us the value of money - which I started earning on my own early. When I was in high school I saved for college. When I was in college I saved for grad school. When I started working I saved to build a nest. With kids I save for their educations.
If I spend on anything, it is on food. But I still don't spend all that much. I buy the same groceries. Have never eaten a lot of meat, so I can still buy whatever I want. Lots of good fresh fruits and vegetables here. I've never bought processed foods, so no problem there. I prefer making high end meals at home: I'd rather make and invite you for a five course French or a full Japanese meal than to go out for one. When I go out I want highway, street, or market food.
The wine bill is high, but wine is more like air than food - something that you just have to have.
A combination of the economy and retiring have lead to my being a more frugal shopper, (living in Southern California doesn't help).
Use to go to the market and get what I wanted choice meat, fresh bread, fresh fish etc, little thought of price. These days it's about the value for the dollar.
Use to shop Whole Foods and Gelson's, anymore it's the local ethnic markets. Still go to Costco every other month and buy whole beef and pork sub-primals to break down and freeze.
Use to dine out or order in 3 to 6 time a month, now it's less than 3 times in two months.
We eat more pasta, rice, soup and vegetable dishes with less meat these days than we use to, which probably isn't a bad thing health-wise.
More potroast, less steak, and where buying ground beef was the norm, today with chuck close to a dollar a pound cheaper, it only make sense to grind it myself.
Me and the SO used to be a little more frivolous with our food spending, but three or so months ago we made the big move to live together and along with the economy and more bills and stuff to take care of we've been more frugal.
We use to go out to eat about 6-7 times a month, now it's been 1-2 times a month, and for the first two months of cohabitation we didn't go out at all (exception being the 1-2 times we got take out). For valentine's day we're going to a restaurant that we've been meaning to check out for quite some time, and it's pretty exciting for us! ha. We've avoided going to chain restaurants too- if I want to spend money on dinner/lunch out, it's going to be somewhere good and usually local and independently owned.
We also try to take an inventory of what we have to the tee before going out to food shopping, doing a lot of math in the aisles, buying a lot of cheaper store brands, cutting down on the amount of organic foods we buy (we really only buy now organic milk and eggs). Also, our freezer is stocked with meat bought in bulk from costco or the local chicken farm (when we are allowed to). Me and my mom usually go together to costco and buy stuff, and split the bill in half for meat, dry foods, etc which saves both of us money.
The majority of our meals are cooked at home, trying to have little reliance on a lot of processed foods. Things like hummus, mayo, salad dressings, and also things like pita chips and potato chips we make in larger quantities by scratch/hand. One thing this recession has done is increased my baking! Why buy a small bag of cookies or a slice of cake/sweets from somewhere for like 4.00, when you could easily make a whole bunch for maybe twice. I've been baking at least once a week in order to keep up with SO's sweet tooth. When it gets a bit warmer, I'll be making batches of ice cream.
Also- whenever my side of the family has a gathering, taking home lots of leftovers, which is easy cos my family always makes WAAAAYYYYYY too much food for their own good. I had a birthday party to go to- lunch for two days for the both of us!
Interesting question. A recession does not affect all, only those who lose their jobs or have their income reduced. I fall into the lost my job category, directly as a result of reduced economic activity, so yes, recession-related. It has not affected my relationship with food. Still love food, try to eat it every day. Stopped going out to restaurants, and purchasing less out of season produce when it the price is high, but food and I have been seeing each other for years and will continue to do so.


text: I read an interesting analogy today. It was about restricting the use of encryption so the law enforcement types could better understand stuff they wiretap or glean from email etc. The writer said that gloves are also used to avoid prosecution by thieves. They wear them to prevent leaving fingerprints. Yet we don't restrict the sale and use of gloves because the vast majority of their uses are for legitimate and reasonable ends. The same is true for encryption and the same is true for fencing gear, IMHO.

If you're carrying a sword at an SCA event or to/from an SCA event, you're unlikely to run into problems. Brandishing it in an environment where folks aren't expecting swords is ill-advised. Carrying it into a bar, liquor store or even a convenience store that sells beer is not a good idea either. If you're stopped by a cop, be as polite and reasonable as possible. Hey, it could be worse. In Australia, you have to be an SCA member, part of another historical group or a member of a recognized fencing club to even *own* a sword (and that includes sword-shaped objects like fencing equipment, not just the sharp stuff.) Any time you're not actually using it, it has to be kept locked in a gun safe. I expect they'll be banning rocks and sticks next. -Tivar Moondragon _______________________________________________ Ansteorra mailing list Ansteorra at lists.ansteorra.org http://lists.ansteorra.org/listinfo.cgi/ansteorra-ansteorra.org _______________________________________________ Ansteorra mailing list Ansteorra at lists.ansteorra.org http://lists.ansteorra.org/listinfo.cgi/ansteorra-ansteorra.org

This Top 100 reflects sales in the UK singles charts
The 1980's saw a pop video explosion with hundreds of original, innovative and highly entertaining videos being released. You can listen to the entire Top 100 best-sellers in the playlist above, or select the links to take you directly to the artist page (where available) where you you will find extra facts and photos.
Compiling this list brought up a few surprises, and it has also revealed quite a few songs and artists that have yet to be added to the Simply Eighties website.
It seems that the British-buying public had quite a fondness for novelty records. Just why did so many people go out and buy The Birdie Song? Never mind acid, we must have all been on Trill back in the 80s!
No one can complain about the diversity of the list. There's everything from Frankie's "Relax" which was banned by the BBC, to a Eurovision winner by Bucks Fizz with a teatime chorus.
Lionel Richie's Hello was still at No.1 when I got together with my first girlfriend, so every time the song is played on the radio it stirs up some very fond memories for me.
However, as a teenager back in the 80s I also wanted to listen to pop artists that my parents were definitely NOT going to listen to, and would, hopefully, even shock them!
Well, my Dad was shocked, no doubt, by the sight of Jim Kerr wearing eye liner and Adam Ant dressed as the dandy highwayman. But the highlight for me was when Boy George appeared on Top Of The Pops for the first time. Without any warning there he was on our TV screen (in all his glory) which caused my Dad to almost choke on his pink wafer! "Do you really want to hurt me?" I know my dad's answer to that one!
You could just hear bemused Dads up and down the land shouting to their son "Son, wouldn't it be a good idea for you to go and play footie with your mates instead of watching this rubbish?".
The problem for us teenagers, though, was that the songs were so damn catchy. As soon as your back was turned you would find you parents singing along to these "shocking" pop stars. I'm not so sure that the same can be said about much of today's music, as I certainly don't find myself singing along to many new tunes. Maybe I'm just stuck in the 80s!
Most of my favourite tunes came from the first half of the eighties, as the latter part of the decade was dominated by Stock, Aitken and Waterman - I'm pretty sure the trio recycled the same composition over and over for their songs.
After just a week of radio airplay, Kylie's I Should Be So Lucky began to irritate the hell out of us. The bubblegum teeny pop tune was written by the SAW team while she was waiting outside the recording studio (in around 40 minutes), as they had forgotten about her appointment!
9 to 5 was Sheena Easton's second and biggest hit single, reaching No.3 in the UK and topping the US charts where the song was titled "Morning Train".
There is no shortage of novelty records in the Top 100, and The Young Ones "helping" Cliff to sing Living Doll has to win the award for the funniest song in the list. Well, The Young Ones taking the P**s was amusing for a while, at least, although the joke began to wear thin very quickly. The profits went to Comic Relief and the guest appearance by Hank Marvin was very welcome, too.
There's no doubting Paul McCartney's skills as a songwriter, but this one certainly sucks. However, as it was written for the animated film Rupert and the Frog Song, you can't really have expected Macca to have penned a classic pop tune, and as songs for children go, it's a pretty decent affair.
Who can forget this song by Elaine Paige and Barbara Dickson. Actually, I can - I've yet to add a page featuring either artist to this site!
Ah, its the Welsh Elvis himself, and he's in the Top 100 twice!

Whistling harassment by staff in a coffee shop. 3rd party harassment.
My sister and I were walking to the store when some man in a pickup truck yelled at us "I want to eat your pussy" and wouldn't stop when I yelled at him.
no comments
I was taking an hour-long walk and enjoying the long overdue sunshine. It was a really zen and beautiful moment for me. I got close to a hawk that was on a low branch on my college campus and thought about how much I love animals because they generally don't bother people. I'd been honked at already by three male drivers I'd mistakenly made eye contact with. It startled me and made me angry every time.
I was halfway back to my apartment when a guy started revving up his motorcycle at the sight of me. I rolled my eyes while crossing the intersection and he yelled, "Tryin' to get raped?!"
He continued yelling things at me until the light changed. Blood was rushing too loud in my ears for me or hear the rest. All I keep thinking is that I hope his fragile ego overtakes him and he dies in a wreck of his own causing.
I go to a Fitness Center in Kanawha City and there are guys there who stare at us – leering, actually. Some are more aggressive and start talking to you. One freak who seems to be an nutrition salesman started flexing & telling me I should "brag on me, I look good for my age. I'm growing like a two year old!"
Women pay the same fees as the guys do – we just want to workout in peace!!
no comments
On my 12 minute walk to and from work, I get 5 honks per day on average. It's a frustrating experience, and a horrible way to start and/or end my day. I wish I could tell which cars they come from when traffic is heavy so I could tell them how disrespectful and disgusting it is.
no comments
I was walking out of 7eleven when a male behind me said to his friend "I like that butt!" Several times, loud enough so I could hear until I gave eye contact. I got in my car but he kept staring and then finally got into his car. I wrote down his license plate but doubt I can really take any additional action. I felt sad and gross inside afterward.
no comments
I'm new to Cincinnati, and I wanted to explore downtown because I heard so many good things about it. I ignored the expected "hey baby's" and even the comment on my brown opaque stockings (WTF?).
As I walked by the downtown bus exchange, a woman (older than me) made a comment like "look at you in your fine hat." The way she said it was remarkably suggestive, especially the way she said the word "fine". At the time I just smiled awkwardly, feeling pretty uncomfortable.
Later I thought, Hold on, would she talk to a man in the same way? And if she did, how would he respond? I love my new hat, but now it seems…tarnished.
I don't want people to walk down the street stony-faced, never acknowledging others around them. There's nothing wrong with a nod or a smile as you walk by. But come on, people! What is the point of making other people feel uncomfortable on purpose?!?
I was walked up to the bus stop at 7:15am to head to work. As I walked up there was one women sitting alone at the far left and two men in their 50's who were clearly intoxicated. The first man greeted me with "hey beautiful," "want to go on a date with me sexy," "I think you are sexy lady." etc.
I looked at him and said "Don't talk to me that way" and then stood awkwardly waiting for the bus because I didn't want to be late to work.
He reacted by being defensive. "I didn't do anything, can't I say hello." His friend made him stop, but they stood there until the bus came talking and pointing over at me.
It felt good to say something, usually I just look away. I also felt vulnerable and I am resentful that the other women at the stop did nothing but look away.
Hi. I was walking outside my apartment building today and as I was rounding a bend, after being adjacent to a busy street, I heard a young man shouting something after me from across the street. It was unintelligible, but made me feel like I had done something wrong, and disappointed me because it disturbed my sense of peace and tranquility. It made me feel like I can't even take a walk.
I feel like something in our culture has changed because I used to not get any harassment and now it seems like its the easiest thing in the world to just go somewhere and have someone verbally attack me. I was a victim of bullying 20 years ago at college but had not been bullied very much in K-12 and I was not bullied significantly again until 2010. I wonder of it is cyclical and, during certain times, the streets are inhospitable, but at other times (for me 2006-7) people are respectful. One thing is for certain, where I live it is currently hostile.
Today when I was at work I went down to the food court to get some water. I walked over to the drinking fountains to dump out my old water before I had it refilled, and as I was walking away, this man who was walking my way looked at me in a strange way and then started to walk closer to me.
It weirded me out a bit but I kept walking. As I was waiting in line to have them refill my cup, I kind of spaced out looking ahead, when I felt someone's presence next to me. I turned my head and the man was standing literally right there next to me, uncomfortably close. He spoke very quietly, asking me how old I was. I felt extremely uncomfortable and tried to show that with my body language by trying to distance myself from him, but he just got closer. I replied slowly and awkwardly, "I'm 22."
He then asked me if I was mad or something, because I obviously did NOT want to talk to him. So I said, "No, I just don't really understand why you are talking to me right now." He replied with "Cuz you cute." I was like "Oh. Ok. Thanks I guess." Then he said something about me being anti-social, so I said yeah, I'm shy, even though I'm not at all. And he said, "I wouldn't judge you, I'm schizophrenic and bipolar." At this point it was my turn to order, so I just ignored him and proceeded with what I was doing.
The guy at the counter was definitely aware of what was going on, and I could see that in his face. The man asked them about where the bus stop was and I left as quickly as possible. The thing that freaked me out was when he told me about is mental problems. Why would anyone share that information with a complete stranger? It scared me, because if he was already being creepy by hitting on me, but he was ALSO struggling with mental issues, who knows what this guy could do! And I was wearing my lanyard for work so he could easily figure out where I'm working! Ugh it was just creepy and weird and it got my heart racing. Totally uncool.
