Writer Kinda Apologizes for Fat Remarks in Scathing JCPenney Article {Stylelist}
Aug 14th 2009 6:27AM Perhaps there should be a store that features only anorexic manequins with holes in their throats from repeated purging... she could be the model for developing them!! How sad that in a country where young teenage (and even younger) girls still use the skeleton thin models in magazines and plastered on billboards as their mentors of body image, are encouraged even more by articles written by people like Cintra Wilson. Thank God for stores that have regular sized models and manequins and offer larger sized clothing. People need to get over a persons size and looks and see someone for who they are inside. Keep your apologies to yourself, as I'm sure it was only offered to save your skinny behind.
Which airlines are you most likely to get kicked off? {Gadling}
Feb 9th 2008 7:30AM I had to fight to get my vouchers for being bumped off my flight along with 14 others in our group. Rep tried to tell me that we were late, I said no your plane was late getting us here and our connecting plane was still here but they bumped us. And if we missed our connection then how did one of our group with us get on that plane??? While being stranded for 3 days in Atlanta met alot of people who had been bumped due to overbooking sometimes by as much as 80 people!!!!!!Ours had been overbooked by 18. Delta did do right by us after many hours waiting for a rep on the phone.

Are kids getting brattier? {ParentDish}
Aug 20th 2006 6:37AM When my children were little I took them to various resteraunts that were more geared to kids, and there I taught them how to be appropriate in a resteraunt. I was then able to take them to any resteraunt, and they knew how to act. I have done the smae thing with my grandchildren and have gotten the same result. Like anything in a childs life, any situation can be used as a learning experience, and we always took advantage of any activity we did to do just that...teach them. Too many kids get left home with a sitter, and they lose the family experience.
My problem now is going into a resteraunt with my husband and friends and it is the adults around us that make me wish there were children in the resteraunt. We recently went out with some friends for dinner at a pretty high end resteraunt and there was a table of women that were having a friends reunion.. they were so loud that we couldn't even speak to one another at our table!!! My friends' husband jokingly made comment to them that we couldn't hear ourselves speak, and they said oh we havent gotten together for a long time... and proceeded to be continue being loud. Nothing was ever said to them even though other people complained. So give me child who might giggle or talk a little too loud, at least hes learning too late for that crew!!
