16 Celebrities Who You May Not have Known are Deaf in One Ear

Inexpensive Gay Pride Wedding Rings (Or Engagement Rings for Gay Couples)
I'd certainly want my ring for keeps to be slightly more upmarket too. I can't fault you on that one.
I should imagine that the majority of gay people getting married aren't looking to wear Gay Pride marriage bands. It would be the usual gold ...

Inexpensive Gay Pride Wedding Rings (Or Engagement Rings for Gay Couples)
Whilst some of these rings are okay, I personally (as an open homosexual) wouldn't opt for any of them. Call me silly but for starters I want a bit more of a pricey ring. I'm not one for jewellery, and I know I'm definitely pro-marriage, so I'd ...

Inexpensive Gay Pride Wedding Rings (Or Engagement Rings for Gay Couples)
That was really unique, wasn't it? As for casual jewelry, I could see them working well in Gay Pride parades or same-sex marriage protests - pro gay marriage, of course!

Inexpensive Gay Pride Wedding Rings (Or Engagement Rings for Gay Couples)

Seeing as I'm someone who can't cope with a roomful of loud people at the best of times, I can only imagine how much worse it is for those with SSD.

Is a Portfolio Career Right for You?
I took a part time editing role a few years ago as a way to start work for the University and get some much-needed time away from my then full time role which had been consuming mind, body and health for seven years. Best thing I ever did. I'm ...

Women and Children First? Titanic and the Suffragettes
Further to dustytoes' comment, I read an interesting article on Slate.com about how the Olympic movement is still discriminating against women by insisting that at the top level, we should compete at shorter distances or lower requirements than ...

@kimbesa plus if you're picky about what you like or you have dietary requirements, home cooking means you can meet those preferences and still have tasty food too.

What do you need in your pantry to cook from scratch?
My idea of learning to cook something new took a turn last night after I realised that I really do NOT like store bought curry and would far rather have my own version. So, task for the year is to perfect a curry mix. I can cook chili, spag bol, ...

Omelettes are a dinner meal around once a month for us, with added cheese, meat, veggies and occasionally potato wedges. By the time I'm done making an omelette, you don't often need anything else, mind.
