Weight-Loss Wonder Women
These six women have binged, despaired, and felt ashamed about their weight. But ultimately, each one got motivated by a major event that propelled her to do something about it. Collectively, they've dropped an amazing 407 pounds and, even better, kept the weight off with surprisingly doable strategies.
By Amanda Robb
Facing the Scale Was the First Step
Now: 125 pounds
One reason for the extra poundage: The high school teacher had started a teaching gig in a new town—a big adjustment—and was "living on frozen pizza," she admits. Another new-job hazard: "People love to bring teachers treats." But her hopes for a decent album of her honeymoon—slated for a year after her June 2011 wedding—propelled her to try Nutrisystem: "I hate cooking, so buying the meals made sense."
After three months, she'd dropped 30 pounds; by her honeymoon, she'd lost another 10, and she bought a fifties-style pinup-girl swimsuit to celebrate. "I posed for pictures all over the place!" she laughs. Even better, she says, is the boon to her mood—and marriage. "I'm more active, so my husband and I have more fun together," she says. "And yes, I finally bought a scale."
Steal her diet trick: Don't deny yourself your favorite treat—just eat it in moderation: "I still love pizza, but now I have it every other week. Other than that, I'm a pretty healthy whole-grain, lean-meat, veggie girl."

MONDAY'S Roll Call, October 14
1 Attachment(s)
It's Columbus Day, or American Indian Day in some areas. All I know, there is no mail delivery on this day, bummer!
Here it is 8 pm. I'm finished with seeing the Hobbit and now I'm heading for bed. Thanks for our start off Doris. See everyone in the morning.
And in breaking news...DH heard a bobcat yowling last night! Turns out there are quite a few in the area. He said it was not a great thing to hear while watching "Sleepy Hollow!" He wound up changing channels.
Happy Monday!
Good morning Doris and thanks. Hi, everyone.
Beete, that soup sound wonderful- wish my printer worked... I must et a new one. Gonna copy and paste it to drafts for when I do get a printer.
Slept well last night and woke up after day light which is better than usual.
No plans for today so will see what I can et meself into. Still grayness but much lighter than the past several days. I need to get outside and "winterize- put away umbrellas and finish up with the last weed whacking- hooray! Sort and clean and stow garden stuff. So more house work while I wait for the sun to come back hopefully wednesday.
What are all yall doing today?
Good Morning gang.
The cats are fed,the horses are out to pasture.I have my meat sauce made for later.
Doris,C. won another jackpot Sat.(1,600) but gave about half back yesterday.I didn't go,not up to it.When we were in service ,we would go to the USO for bingo and he would win over half the games,made people mad.I didn't remember what we played for,he said can goods.lol
We have been having lots of rain,Sat. was a downpour.We are up on a ridge so never flood.Still need to cut grass.
Today is my DIL B-day,on the nineth was DS1 and her fathers B-day(her father is a twin and my dad was a twin)Strange
Hi All, Busy weekend with Thanksgiving weekend. Lots of Fun Family time.
Waving to All and hope to bbl...
Good morning all...Lainey, what fun...you're putting away summer things, stowing the umbrella while we here in SoCal are trying to find ours for our rainy season. I've another cat scan scheduled this afternoon, but nothing else planned, so I wonder what trouble will come.
Waving at all and wishing Susan a happy thanksgiving...type ya later.
Good morning and Happy Thanksgiving, Susan.
I still haven't been able to figure out how to post a recipe to the recipe room!
This is one that is clearly low carb, but unless you are low carbing, very fattening!
Hello, everyone, just got in here, been on the phone with Express Scripts, they want to charge us almost $1,400 for dh's anti rejection med, that is for every 3 months, so had to call and argue, and then call the doctor. There is only one brand of anti rejection med, and one generic, and that's it, and the generic makes my husband shake like a drug addict, so, we shall see what happens. The big Brand company increased the price of the drug double what they used to charge, and now they make it in Japan.
Louise, that would be unsettling, to be watching a spooky show and hear a bobcat in the area, ugh!
Lainey, glad you are almost done with the weed whacking chore for a few months!
Begete, how is your garden holding out nowadays?
Susan, Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family, enjoy the "together" time!
As I say, Gladys, if your husband lived in Germany, people would go up to him and rub him for good luck!! Just like the chimney sweep.
Mary, hope your cat scan goes smoothly this afternoon.
Sharon, have a good day, doing "whatever" strikes your fancy.
Son's cat scan went ok this morning, they gave him some other kind of stuff this time, so he didn't have any bad reaction. He called from breakfast, they were at a new plact, "The Egg and I". Hoping he can go back to work later on.
My mother in law is going to come out for Christmas, if her knee replacement operation goes well, and she wants to stay at least 2 weeks, so now I have to really clear out that spare room.
Take care, friends!!

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving Susan. :)
As expected, my blood counts are low, being at the nadir between chemo sessions, so I will hibernate and hope to get the all clear on Wednesday after my next blood test.
The important news of the day is that my tumor markers are dropping!!! I don't have the exact numbers (will get on Wed), but this is an indicator that this chemo is working for me. I am crying for joy.
Waving to all,
That's wonderful news!
I'm very happy to read this news of improvement in your numbers, Louise, I hope Wednesday's report is good news for you, and lift up your spirits!! :)
It is still raining here, a surprise for most of the "regulars", lol.
Susan, I was just thinking, if I had to serve a Thanksgiving dinner right now, I wouldn't be able to pull it off, have not even seen any of those normal sized turkeys yet. Do they have Thanksgiving in England? Or was it new to you after you arrived in Canada? My mother didn't know about Thanksgiving, when we immigrated here, they never had seen a turkey, and the relatives came into the kitchen and threw a dead turkey on the counter by the sink.
Hello, everyone. Although I joined a couple of years ago, I haven't posted much. I have read through a couple of threads here at The Golden Years and you seem like a friendly and caring group, so I hope you don't mind if I join in.
I just celebrated my 50th anniversary (by eating pizza buffet, I'm sorry to say - but sure enjoyed it). I have 2 grown and married kids... one of each, and 4 grandkids.
My husband was diagnosed with diabetes in 2011, the same time I was diagnosed with prediabets. That is when we started eating low carb. Thus began the search for good low carb recipes, and that is what brought me here.
Am looking forward to getting to know all of you better.
Yeaaaa, Mary Ann, "Miss Missy" & I did our walkies!
(ahem- sorry Verleen- I mean walk!) sure felt good but am feeling it now as it has been too long not walking.
Louise- that is beautiful news about your markers. I go every 3 months to my oncologist for blood work and am always "clean" as he says. I do not understand what it really means and plan to ask him Wednesday at my appt. and what does it mean will happen if it is not clean??? Cancer is back? tons of test??? more surgery???? Colon resection was Jan. 13, 2011 showing only stage 1 which they thought was higher. Does Bob have that blood work every 3 months as well?
You and Bob are beautiful in the way you have lived with and carried on with the both of you having so much treatments. Much prayers for you two and admire the great inspiration you are for everyone.
Need to clean on the kitchen some but don't feel much like it doing that.
|All times are GMT -7. The time now is 07:24 PM.

*sigh*I wasn't going to spend all day on the internet, but then I did.More importantly, I wanted to share a cool writing exercise with y'all:-Put a playlist.-For the duration of the song, try to come up with a story where the currently playing song would be ideal for the end credits.-Complete until playlist is done.Very fun and good to get the creative juices flowing.
Stop the perfectionismOn my Tumblr site someone asked me for some general advice for an aspiring comic creator. This is what was on my mind. Thought I'd share it here on Deviantart as well.Right now all I can think of is something I've been thinking about lately. And that is the depression some of us artists get about our art. Like our expectations aren't just "My drawings need to be good!", they are "My art needs to be PERFECT."So I would suggest always try to improve, gain confidence, but expect good/average output. Don't expect perfect art, ever. By doing this only causes you to be frustrated, which in turn causes mistakes, which pisses you off more, then you're stuck in a lame spiraling circle downward to the pathetic whiny artist. Which in turn kills your deadline. Giving yourself freedom from perfection makes drawing much easier and better art is produced and on time.I'm currently working on this piece where it started out difficult, I had high expectations for it, I was in a bad mood, nothing was

Newman Ferrara LLP Announces Investigation Of Schiff Nutrition International, Inc.
Newman Ferrara LLP is investigating potential claims against the board of directors of Schiff Nutrition International Inc. ("Schiff") (NYSE: SHF) concerning the proposed acquisition of Schiff by German-based Bayer AG ("Bayer").
On October 30, 2012, Schiff announced that it had entered into an agreement and plan of merger to be acquired by Bayer in an all cash deal valued at approximately $1.2 billion. Under the terms of the agreement, Schiff's shareholders will receive $34.00 per share of Schiff stock owned. However, in 2012 alone, shares of Schiff common stock have increased in value by 64%. In addition, just one month before announcing the proposed deal, Schiff announced that the company's net sales had increased 46% and Schiff was significantly raising its fiscal 2013 guidance.
As part of the proposed deal, Schiff's Board of Directors has agreed not to solicit any other competing offers to acquire Schiff and Schiff's Chief Executive Officer, president and director, Tarang Amin, will be given a $5 million lump-sum cash bonus if the deal is completed by December 31, 2012.
Newman Ferrara LLP's investigation concerns whether Schiff's Board of Directors has breached its fiduciary duties to act in the best interests of Schiff's shareholders and to take all necessary steps to ensure that Schiff's shareholders receive the maximum value readily available for their shares of Schiff common stock.Concerned investors are encouraged to contact Newman Ferrara attorney Roy Shimon at (212) 619-5400 or email@example.com to discuss this investigation, their rights, or potential remedies. Newman Ferrara maintains a multifaceted practice based in New York City with attorneys specializing in complex commercial and multi-party litigation, securities fraud and shareholder litigation, consumer protection, civil rights, and real estate.

I've been wakeboarding for 16 years. Started off riding in high school with friends and family. Once I graduated from San Jose State I decided to open my own wakeboard school South Bay Wakeboard Academy, in Morgan Hill, Ca.

What Is That Topless Lady Doing With The Sunday New York Times?
We stumbled upon this page from an article in the January 1972 issue of Playboy. The article is called
"What To Do With The Sunday New York Times" and the text in the lower right hand corner reads:
ecology freaks, take note: all the news that's fit to print is fit to use!
The Sunday Times is under attack. Recyclists find it lamentably heavy – in the preslang meaning of that word – and some have gone so far as to suggest that it be offered for sale in sections, so that the buyer can carry home, and toss into the Monday-morning trash, only the news he finds fit to read. The Times feels this notion is economically naive. What to do? Playboy and illustrator James Higa pondered this problem and hit upon a literally constructive solution. Higa went quickly to work. You can see the newsworthy results of his efforts by turning the page.

She'll perform NMT & Woohoo @ MTV movie awards it's definitely the second single.
She'll perform NMT & Woohoo @ MTV movie awards it's definitely the second single.
I'll be stunned if they really put out another Polow track after what's going on with the current one.
Is she for real?
^ Lol so it seems. She needs to release a ballad like Beautiful to redeem herself.
Yikes. And I didn't think it could get any worse than NMT. Who is making the single choices? Are these truly two of the best songs on the album? Barf!!
With her history, the next single is more likely to be ballad. I'm hoping its You Lost Me. It would be smart to have a summer hit, but Christina always wants to be different.
If she releases Woohoo after NMT,
She can kiss her status as a 'pop princess' goodbye. Seriously I'm rooting for her but she's making it pretty fucking hard with these singles she's releasing.
I'm going to agree with Anton, I want an epic ballad on par with "Beautiful" and "I Turn To You" next.
Life is a celebration. So celebrate, and live!
To be fair, these two songs were recorded by Polow after the album was done. From the reviews I've read about the album, its said that NMT is the weakest track, so that's good news. I just really hope that her label isn't trying to push out all the tracks like NMT or she could lose her audience.
They best change the song selection asap or Christina will be left behind in the pop music world.
Life is a celebration. So celebrate, and live!
In fact I hated Aint No Other Man (and still do) so much, I almost passed on Back to Basics completely. But when I heard snippets of the rest of the album online, she was able to pull me back on board. I ended up loving that album. So with her previous history of delivering a great album despite some shaky singles, I still have very high hopes for Bionic. I'll stay patient and wait for X-tina to release a song from the new ablum that REALLY blows my socks off. B/c I know she can do and I know she will do it.
And really, I kinda like both NMT and Woohoo. For such customary, unoriginal songs, I gotta admit that they're both sorta cute.
^ Damn you Moe, now I'm going to give Christina another chance solely based on you liking her.
NMT semi reminded me of Alicia Keys when she released "Doesn't Mean Anything" and I thought, fail. But then TSWABH premiered and I fell in love with her all over again.
I'm hoping to have the exact same reaction with Christina when her third single's released.
Life is a celebration. So celebrate, and live!
Her official website released the track list for the standard edition of Bionic. I really wanna hear Glam and find out why was it scrapped as the first single.

I seriously hope she does not release 'Woohoo' as a single. One, I hate Nicki Minajery and two, the song is not that great.
Vinyl has a growing market, I personally don't collect but it's great for collectors. She revealed the deluxe tracklisting, still not sure how she'll fit in 19 songs and 4 intros on one disc.

Whoo hoo is so hot!
The packaging looks fucking epic.
I'd buy the CD just for that shit instead of the usual way of 'obtaining' newly released music.
Life is a celebration. So celebrate, and live!
I'm digging WooHoo like a madman
Woohoo reminds me of London Bridge and other Fergie songs.
I'm having a love affair with Woohoo. While NMT failed to move me any in direction, Woohoo had me at the intro.
I seriously hate her new look/style. Her video for Not Myself Tonight just creeps me out
Woohoo Is really really GREAT !!!!
WooHoo is really horrible.. NMT was horrible enough, but WooHoo is horrible and annoying plus enough with Nicki Minaj, so sick of her
Both are not my speed at all. But WooHoo is the worst offender of the two.
I keep listening to it, trying to force myself to like it, but I just can't get into it like other posters here can.
And I'm so sick of hearing females singing about getting eaten out. Give me a break, Christina.
I don't think WooHoo is the next single
^ I hope it's not for Christina's sake.
Life is a celebration. So celebrate, and live!

I Hate Boys
You Lost Me
You Lost me is GREAT !!!
Not a Huge fan of I hate boys, pretty poppish not very "Aguilera"
But the biggest surprise for me yet is Bionic.
I am extremely excited for this song now !! I love it. As of right now, it's the only song that actually caught me
'I Hate Boys' sounds like a Britney leftover and 'Bionic' sounds all over the place much like 'NMT' and the terrible song with Minaj. But I gotta say, I'm kinda diggin 'You Lost Me'.
LOL, "I Hate Boys" does sound like a Brit Brit/Gaga left over. Someone should have advised her not to record that one.
"You Lost Me" sounds decent, I wouldn't mind that being on radio station rotation for the next few months or so, better that then "Woohoo".
I love "Bionic", well not the lyrics and shit but the BGM music is epic. The verse reminds me of All Saint's "Rock Steady" which is probably why I like it.
Still waiting on the album to be released/leaked, can't wait!
Life is a celebration. So celebrate, and live!
...I'm a big fan of Christina, but I've not liked any of the songs released/leaked so far.
Except 'Lift Me Up,' which she sang live; that was good.
I love Christina, I really do. And I want to like this sooo bad but I can't. "Stripped" is still my favorite album of hers, and actually one of my favorite albums period. I got really excited when I saw stills from the NMT video because I thought "finally we're getting some Xtina back". She's not going to try and play to what's "in" right now and we're going to get a kick ass album. But all the songs I've heard off of it have been kinda mediocre. I think she's trying entirely too hard to be edgy and cool and I don't know that it's working.
Well, I'm definitely liking You Lost Me from the snippet that I heard.
Yessss Bionic is available to pre-order on iTunes and you get "WooHoo" immediately. I guess its official to say its the next single or thats what iTunes claiming.
I've missed Christina She's my favourite contemporary pop female but the only songs I've liked so far are WooHoo and the ballads. NMT, Bionic and I Hate boys are all a bit crap. Which is weird because usually Christina's up tempos are good (Dirrty, Candyman etc.)
I'll reserve final judgement until I hear the whole thing though.
I know people rave about the Stripped era but I actually only really liked one of those singles (even though I loved the album as a whole), this looks like it may be a repeat of that.
Part of me wishes that it was released in the fall so she could have lead with a ballad and shown off her fucking epic voice. However a ballad in summer will flop so hard.
Full version of 'Bionic'
Way bigger of a mess than the short clip led me to believe These types of songs do not suit her voice at all.
^ M.I.A. much? My god, Christina...what's happening with you?
^ I got Santigold out of it, but that's expected because she worked on the song. I wanna hear Elastic Love, the song M.I.A. contributed to.
Don't think, just buy it cause Oprah told u too.
I really like the pre-chorus and the beat, but it's Switch so of course it has a good beat.
I love Bionic and Woohoo is officially the second single
I dont get what people are complaining about. Christina never does music that is expected. She changes it completely every album. It's like people cant handle that she isnt doing what you want.
You cant expect her to be like Mariah and make the same silly album over and over again or with generic Diane Warren ballads. What exactly do you want her sing? R&B songs that no one listens to anymore.

Many things are uncertain in Mumbai - the weather, the possibility of an appointment actually happening on time, the chance of getting through the city without hitting some obstacle or other…
I spent some time talking with Jeet Thayil, whose book on Mumbai and opium culture is a contender for this year's Man Booker Prize, which will be awarded on Oct. 16. You can read the interview that we published on the Reuters news wire. Here are some excerpts:
After police busted a rave in a swanky part of Mumbai last week, the city's drinkers have woken up with an almighty legal hangover.
The self-styled crusader against corruption, the "modern Gandhi" — Anna Hazare — has managed to pick on one of the most marginalized sections of Indian society. While pitching for a strong Lokpal Bill on Tuesday, Hazare resorted to an unfortunate idiom about childless women, when he said, "Banjh kya jaane prasuti vedana (what would an infertile woman know about labour pain)?"

Mumbai provides everyone living in it with an opportunity to earn and survive. Be it a white-collared job in a multinational company located in one of the city's plush high rise buildings or killing rats by night in the filthiest and dirtiest parts of India's financial capital. This time, my tryst was with the latter.

There are a couple of stories I've been waiting to do since I heard that I'd be moving to India last year. Maybe it's part nostalgia, part fascination, but I'm happy to be able to interpret these stories visually, finally.
By Danish Siddiqui
To live in the world's second most populous country and city is itself an experience. When I was asked to do a feature story on the world's population crossing the 7 billion mark, I realized it wasn't going to be an easy task. This was simply because there were so many stories to tell in this city of dreams, Mumbai.
For sale: a spacious, well-built Mumbai townhouse with beautiful views, well-heeled neighbours and one considerate, well-respected former owner.
Sports and Action photography is all about timing. It's about reacting. It's about being in the right place at the right time and it's about execution.
Have you tried buying or renting a house in Mumbai recently? If so, then I won't be surprised if you think real estate prices are plain expensive, and incredibly so. But that's almost always been the case in India's commercial capital. After all, when was the last time someone told you they got a cheap house in the city?

If you're hungry for a volcanic meal then you'd better get over to Iceland. All I can think about is Dante's Peak.
Chef Fridgeir Eiriksson is the man behind the volcanic meal. He decided to take advantage of the eruption of the Fimmvorduhals volcano by cooking a once-in-a-lifetime meal on the volcano. Two guests were given the red carpet treatment (literally), and served a meal adjacent to a lava field. All I can say is, "Wow." More details about this epic volcanic meal are below.

Canadian Journal of Cardiology Publishes Report on Delayed vs. Immediate Coronary Stenting
Delaying stenting of blocked coronary arteries may be superior for heart attack patients
Philadelphia, PA, October 19, 2011 – The Canadian Journal of Cardiology ( www.onlinecjc.ca) has published a paper on the timing of coronary stenting, a thought-provoking paper that challenges one of the dogmas of acute heart attack management today.
Emergency procedures to open blocked coronary arteries in patients with acute myocardial infarction have revolutionized cardiology by preventing heart attacks and their complications. Stents (types of springs) are usually put into these arteries to keep them open after they have been unblocked by "clot-busting". The research presented in this paper provides data suggesting an alternative approach, one in which stents are not inserted immediately but several days after the intervention when the artery has had time to heal, may be superior. This idea counters much of present thinking.
In the editorial of the same issue, "From Primary to Secondary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: The Emerging Concept of Early Mechanical Reperfusion With Delayed Facilitated Stenting—When Earlier May Not Be Better", Drs. E. Marc Jolicoeur and Jean-François Tanguay argue that this alternative intervention has much reason to be supported and that new thinking and testing are needed to improve management of patients with acute myocardial infarction.
"If the authors are right, we need to change how we manage some heart attack patients to give them a better chance for a successful outcome. Additional studies will allow us to know for sure, but in the meantime it is important that doctors managing heart attack patients consider these findings and their potential implications," comments Stanley Nattel, MD, Editor-in-Chief of theCanadian Journal of Cardiology.
The paper is "Effect of Delayed vs. Immediate Stent Implantation on Myocardial Perfusion and Cardiac Function in Patients With ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction Undergoing Primary Percutaneous Intervention With Thrombus Aspiration," by Liang Tang, MD, Sheng-hua Zhou, MD, PhD, Xin-qun Hu, MD, Zhen-fei Fang, MD, and Xiang-qian Shen, MD (doi:10.1016/j.cjca.2011.03.001). It appears in Canadian Journal of Cardiology, Volume 27, Issue 5 (September 2011) published by Elsevier.

Really, America? Must everything always be political?
Picking a side and sticking to it is not a flaw in politics or sports or much else. Being guided in politics by a core philosophy is not just OK, it's the way politics should be done. But so many Americans are now driven almost entirely by ideology or partisanship (there is a difference) that historic moments that should unite us all become opportunities to divide us further.
The injured were still being removed from Boylston Street on Monday when partisans on the left and the right speculated that surely this must be the work of the other side. If they were not blaming the other side directly, they stated with no evidence whatsoever that the blasts confirmed their own political views.
Former U.S. Rep. Barney Frank, D-Mass., used the moment not to call for unity, but to take pot shots against people who advocate for lower taxes and smaller government. Conservative activists used the moment to bash the media, ironically getting facts wrong while complaining about news reports that, in the chaotic aftermath of a terrorist attack, were sometimes off base.
Have we really reached the point at which not even the bombing of a major American city can cause people to put down their partisan swords for a day?

TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) _ Gov. Sam Brownback appears to have been eager to sign a bill declaring that the federal government has no authority to regulate prairie chickens in Kansas.
Brownback spokeswoman Eileen Hawley said Saturday that the governor signed the measure late Friday after returning to Topeka from an Urban League of Kansas dinner in Wichita.
The measure protests the federal government's listing the lesser prairie chicken as threatened.
Legislators passed the bill last week but proofreading kept them from delivering it to the governor's office until Friday. The governor had 10 days to act on the bill.
But Hawley said Brownback directed his staff to have the prairie chicken measure ready for him when he returned to Topeka. She said he wanted to sign it on the day he received it.

Critic Reviews for The Taming of the Shrew
All Critics (20) | Top Critics (3) | Fresh (17) | Rotten (3) | DVD (2)
As for Mr. Zeffirelli's settings and the elaborate Renaissance costumes, they look very rich and mellow in the misty pastel colors that are used. But they, too, like Nino Rota's music, tend to monotony.
Purists will doubtless be upset by this flick, but the bawdy humor is engaging, the photography and musical score work just fine, and the most famous married couple in the world at that time are really having a ball here.
Zeffirelli can't bring himself quite to the realm of radical Shakespeare. However, the film is a great vehicle for the two most famous stars of its era.
Fine Zeffirelli version with Taylor and Burton in good form.
Not necessarily the best telling, but still wickedly attractive.
Riotous fun.
High-spirited whoop-de-doo Shakespeare, not too adulterated, not too precious, and geared slyly towards an audience who may have read about this kind of marriage on the showbiz gossip pages.
...ranks among the finest screen adaptations of a Shakespeare play ever made.
When [Zeffirelli] sticks to the play and to his actor's skills, the film comes alive. Sadly that was not as often as it should have been.
Despite its blatant lack of political correctness, there is considerable fun to be had in this film.
Audience Reviews for The Taming of the Shrew
"Too many words," I complained while a youth first exposed to the Bard and so voiced the tedium I felt under the deluge of verbiage, poetry or no, accustomed to dusty cowpokes who spoke only in monosyllables between gunfights or, say, gangsters who rattled curses like machine gunfire ... until this lively Zeffirelli production was shown me. And its still my fav Shakespeare, embodied with hew and vigor, muscle and blood and bone by Burton and Taylor in my fav film by them. Inspires me to take 30 minutes to say "I love you!" A rose by any other name would smell as sweet.More
Super Reviewer
This is a great adaptation of a Shakespeare play. The actors are great, and work together well. It's very funny and enjoyable and I recommend this movie.More
Super Reviewer
I love this version of Shakepeare's Taming of the Shrew...well I am partial to one of my fav's being in this...Liz Taylor. Richard Burton and Liz Taylor were not just great offscreen but onscreen together as well. My favorite film teaming Burton and Taylor for sure!More
Super Reviewer
The film stars real-life husband and wife Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor, then the hottest celebrity couple in the world.
The themes of male chauvinism and feminism which underpin the comedic plot are brought out in a way that would have made the film instantly relevant to a 1960s audience. Provocative satire in sexual politics in the late 16th century. The fact that the play still resonates and can raise a smile suggests that things haven?t changed much in the past four hundred years vis-�-vis male-female relationships.

Crochet (English pronunciation: /kroʊˈʃeɪ/; French: [kʁɔʃɛ]) is a process of creating fabric from yarn, thread, or other material strands using a crochet hook. The word is derived from the French word "crochet", meaning hook. Hooks can be made of materials such as metals, woods, or plastic and are commercially manufactured as well as produced by artisans. Crocheting, like knitting, consists of pulling loops of material through other loops, but additionally incorporates wrapping the working material around the hook one or more times. Crochet differs from knitting in that only one stitch is active at one time (exceptions being Tunisian crochet and broomstick lace), stitches made with the same diameter of yarn are comparably taller, and a single crochet hook is used instead of two knitting needles. Additionally, crochet has its own system of symbols to represent stitch types.

The history of Konavle is quite interesting. Today it lives in the people of Konavle, their traditions, lifestyle, and the national costumes.
Konavle region is excellent for cycling, hiking, horse-back riding, and basically anything to do with nature..
The gastronomic and oenological offer of Konavle is an integral part of the entire tourist offer, the sentiment and the atmosphere of the Konavle region.

Clothesline Musings from Western Wisconsin
Made of durable wood and painted in bright colors. The magnetic board and magnets are strong, yet not so strong that my 2 and 4 yr old have trouble pulling the pieces back off again. The pieces stick through the pattern pages which is exactly what I needed for my two youngest children. I have been looking for a pattern block set for some time and am thrilled with the quality of this product in comparison to others on the market. My only complaint is the the plastic carrying case is just big enough to hold the board and pieces. I wish it would have been slightly larger so that my little ones could more easily put it all away with out mom helping to squeeze it into the bag. It is made of a strong plastic that should last.... if we can continue to get the pieces in.
Another great M&D product!
Staci from Nashville, TN– Verified Buyer
We gave this to our daughter (age 3.5) for Christmas! This is something that I actually enjoyed playing with her. She can do her picture magnetically on the board and I work mine on the floor next to her. I love that there is a separate pouch on the back to store the pieces and there are a variety of designs. Eventually, she had fun just fitting pieces together on her own both on the floor and the board!
great learning tool
Cloth Diaper Addiction from Grand Rapids Michigan– Verified Buyer
I use this with my 2 year old. It is a great learning tool. We are able to work on colors, shapes, matching, counting, and more with the pattern blocks. One thing that I don't care for with this product is that the pieces are not all the same size. Some of the 'white' pieces, little diamonds are smaller, bigger or wider than others and don't always fit nicely into the picture spots.
My 3-year old LOVES this!
Mom of TWO from Denver, CO– Verified Buyer
My 3-year old loves this product. You can use the cardboard designs included in the product or you can free form your own pictures with the magnetic shapes provided. You can also use the magnetic board with any magnetic letters you may have to start teaching letters and words. The design cards are double sided. The design cards are somewhat flimsy - not sure how long they will last. But they have to be thin to allow the magnet to stick to the card.
Nice, but LOTS of little pieces
Teena from Wheeling, WV– Verified Buyer
My kids were likely too young for this, as all they wanted to do was scatter the pieces everywhere. I think kids 7-10 would probably enjoy this more.
