<description><![CDATA[Hi<br>
<br>
My name is Christy (not my real name) and I have been on the internet dating scene for a number of years. Like most women I have had my fair share of trials and tribulations and this site is my way of getting a good giggle and making light of what I've suffered all for the sake of finding true love!<br>
<br>
I can't tell you how many times I have spent the time and the effort to write a nice ad, describing my attributes, posting a recent photo (of my smiling face) and sending it off with a hope and a prayer that someone nice would reply. And do you know what I often got? You guessed it Just a Dick!! Which leads me to believe that that's all men really are-----just dicks! So this website is built with my collections of dicks, and as you can see I have ALOT of dicks. I figure some of you ladies out there also have dicks to share......We can post em, rate em and have some fun with this! And hey guys if you want to post your own picture be our guest! We will rate that for you too!<br>

<description><![CDATA[A group of media students and college graduates are thinking of starting WMTV (Western Mass Television) This group will be dedicated to many new things.

We want people to join us to make this group possible. We are only excepting certain people at this point but will soon be teaching. Send us your resume or just any information we should know. Include you phone number we will call you with in 24 hours. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Are you interested in a community RECYCLING group that NOT ONLY focuses on "getting and giving good stuff", but also helps to save our planet? We are excited to tell you about another option in Berkshire County!<br>
<br>
We are Berkshire County MA ReUseIt! We are former Freecycle members/group owners/moderators who are frustrated in the direction that Freecycle is going. We decided that the MEMBERS and GROUP OWNERS should have MORE SAY in how their group is run, without the politics of The Freecycle Network.<br>
<br>
Please visit us at <a href="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/BerkshireCountyMAReUseIt/"  rel="nofollow">http://groups.yahoo.com/group/BerkshireCountyMAReUseIt/</a> You may also visit our home site at <a href="http://www.reuseitnework.org"  rel="nofollow">http://www.reuseitnework.org</a><br>
<br>
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact<br>
BerkshireCountyMAReUseIt-owner@yahoogroups.com<br>
<br>
We hope to hear from you soon and thank you for reading!<br>
<br>
Recycle, Reuse and Reduce--that's what it's all about!<br>

<link>http://westernmass.craigslist.org/grp/757161044.html</link>
<description><![CDATA[A new meditation group has formed for people who haven't been able to find a way into meditation that works for them.<br><br>
 
The group:<br>
-is peer-led (we are all equals, here to support one another), <br>
-includes instructions on meditation along with discussions that change weekly,<br>
-welcomes any experience level or tradition,<br>
-is supported by <i>dana</i> (the Pali word for <i>generosity</i>). A donation of $7 is requested but not required. Give what you can when you can.<br>
-is based on the concepts created by Noah Levine, author of "Dharma Punx" and "Against the Stream".<br><br>

<br>
These high energy classes are accompanied by a battery of live drummers from <i>Grupo Folklórico Palo Santo</i> playing authentic Afro-Cuban instruments and rhythms; and singing  traditional Afro-Cuban songs.<br>
<br>
These ongoing classes are open to dancers of all different ability and experience levels. No previous formal dance training is necessary. Newcomers are always welcome.<br>

<description><![CDATA[<table border="0" cellpadding="4"><tr><td align="left" colspan="2"><h2>Open Men's Group - for self-awareness </h2><p>Men that share experiences and wisdom to support self-awareness, positive change and transformation. We examine the destructive aspects of the "modern man" and our own personalities that limit us from embracing life fully. We form a community of peers who take risks to improve our lives and help others. All kinds of men are involved. Non-religious and non-profit. Any man ready to follow some simple ground rules and take responsibility for himself is welcome.This work can have profound positive impacts on families, friendships and communities. Better health, more happiness, less anger, closer relationships with loved ones! Make the change you've been dreaming of. Become more the man you want to be. Create trusting and open relationships with men. The way we see it, the world really needs men who have courage (heart) enough to get real with one another and work together as brothers. Dominating, chest pounding, 'tough it up' or 'laugh it off' masculinity is a facade that often covers up the truly effective, powerful, compassionate, nurturing, mature man. Hosted and facilitated by men from the ManKind Project of New England. Fourth Thursday each month. www.openmen.org</p></td></tr><tr><td align="left" valign="top"><p><a href="http://men.meetup.com/72/calendar/8223570/i3/cl"  rel="nofollow"><img src="http://photos4.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/7/b/e/d/global_4591725.jpeg"></a></p></td><td align="left" valign="top"><p><b>Open Men's Group - for self-awareness & empowerment July Meetup</b><br>Thursday, July 24, 2008 at 6:30PM</p><p>The Springfield Uprising Men's Group is holding an Open Meeting on this Thursday, July 24th from 6:30 until 8:45 pm at 380 Union Street, West Springfield, MA. You are invited to attend this meeting - get support with whatever is going on in your life, celebrate your success with a group of peers, connect with other men who are dedicated to personal growth. Learn more about men's work, the ManKind Project and the New Warrior Training Adventure.I have had several men ask me - what this is all about ? what do you do?We sit in a circle on chairs. We talk to each other about ourselves. We listen intently. We do not shame or criticize. We do not spend time giving advice. We use processes to "dig in" to those parts of ourselves that we find confusing, upsetting and STUCK. We resolve conflicts, both internal and external, by taking responsibility for ourselves.A men's group is a place to figure out what you want in your life, take steps to make it happen and continually look at what is getting in the way of you being fully alive and empowered.Do you want better relationships?Do you want to learn how to better handle situations that stump you over and over?Do you want to break out of a rut that you have been living in for years?Do you want to sit with men actively working to make the world a better place?Here's an even harder question - do you instinctively NOT trust men (or women or yourself)?  You learned this somewhere. Not only is it bad for your physical health, but it is probably preventing you from living fully.Join us! Support yourself!</p> <p>See the full event details, including location, at  <a href="http://men.meetup.com/72/calendar/8223570/i3/cl"  rel="nofollow">http://men.meetup.com/72/calendar/8223570/</a>.</p></td></tr></table>]]></description>

<link>http://westernmass.craigslist.org/grp/744947787.html</link>
<description><![CDATA[Looking for Christians who would like to get together once (or twice) a week for study and prayer: Hopefully to stick to the Word (Bible) and leave denominational and doctrine differences at the door, but really seek God's word on healing, miracles, signs and wonders following baptized believers: REVIVAL of all that the first Church had and Jesus said we can have and do if we have faith on Him.  <br>
<br>
I have seen glimpses... spots and spackles of all 9 gifts of the holy spirit and would like to press in for MORE.  If you are on fire for these things of God please email me, even 2 gathered in His Name is an excellent start: all we need is our Bibles!  God bless!  Hoping to hear from like-minded believers who want to go as high as possible in the Lord to do all the works and more!]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[I would like to start a social group for bisexual and lesbian women to meet up and do social activities together. Wouldn't it be amazing to be able to tap into a community of great women who are interested in experiencing life in this great valley of ours? We could meet up for tea/coffee, walks, dances, dinners out, potlucks, films, etc. There are so many great women around, but many of us seem to be isolated or otherwise lacking community. I say there is no good reason for this when we live in "lesbianville" USA. Let's connect up to socialize, network, date, and otherwise enjoy life together-- in community. If you would like to be part of such an endeavor please send me contact information and let's see what we can get started. Please have "social group" in your reply subject line.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Do you love to play Scrabble? Would you like to meet up with other folks and share a source of enjoyment? We do! Maybe you don't have folks to play with often enough. Maybe you are better than the rest of your family, and want a harder challenge!<br>
<br>
We offer a chance to play Scrabble against others who love the game. We have fun members who really enjoy meeting new players. There are many different levels of players who join us at any given meeting, from "I've only played with my family" to folks who play in tournaments regularly. We'll try to match you up with other folks around your level, and if you want, we'll help you to improve your game.<br>
<br>
We meet every Monday, but you don't have to attend every week. Our first game starts at 5:30, but feel free to join us 6:15 P.M. for the second game. Later games start at 7:00, 8:00, and sometimes 9:00. Come for any one game or stay for the whole evening, or anything in between.<br>
<br>
We meet in the Community Room of Burger King, located at 344 King St., in Northampton. The Community Room is at the back of the building, accessible through the front. There is a $1 suggested "dues," but that is waived the first time you join us.<br>
<br>

Do AC Moore and Michael's sound like the best way to spend a rainy Sunday afternoon? Or do you just like to meet new people who share a love for scrapbooking and rubberstamping?  Me too!  I'm new to the area and would like to join in on a currently existing group or start my own with people who share similar interests.  I also love photography, finding eclectic coffee shops, tag sales, thrift shopping, fitness, acoustic music, reading, independent films and the great outdoors. . . Can't wait to hear from you!!]]></description>

<link>http://westernmass.craigslist.org/grp/720581908.html</link>
<description><![CDATA[I am an educational consultant with Usborne Books and if you aren't familiar with our books we carry award winning educational yet fun reading material for children. We have books for all ages, infant through junior high and topics of interest for everyone. <br><br>
I am currently looking for groups that would be interested in taking part in a reading incentive challenge called Reach for The Stars. E-mail me for the details but basically each child is asked to read a set number of minutes in a two week period and to collect pledges from their friends and family. 100% of the pledge money goes back to the group in the form of books. <br><br>
This program is great for elementary aged children but can work with younger children who will have parents read to them instead of doing all the reading themselves. Homeschoolers usually enjoy this program since many homeschool curricula use our books and what better way to get them than for FREE? <br><br>
This program is of course held for your group at no charge and I basically do all the work. If you are part of a group, or know of one that may be interested, please e-mail me for more information. Some groups that have taken the reading incentive challenge with our company in the past include scouts, little league (and other team sports), homeschool groups, school groups, church groups, etc. Together we can promote literacy among the youth of today!
<br><br>

I'm looking forward to hearing from you!!]]></description>

My interests are Yoga, meditation, coaching soccer, movies(old and classics, even subtitles), nature, organic food, and balanced people who love life, despite rising gas and food prices. Must carry yourself with confidence and have something to bring to the table. Must be open to conversation without bounderies. They say its hard for women over 30 to create relationships, lets prove them wrong. Must be financially and emotionally balanced and think that Life is good....]]></description>
