Romance B.C
You women should count your lucky stars you were born in this era. I mean, a long, long time ago men used to capture their women from other villages and taketh them back to their caves and maketh them their wifes. This was a time when women were in short supply.
Is it a political site?
I m addressing my words to the respactable administration of this Connecting Singles site!
First of all I want to express my gratitude for the nice opportunity to meet very good personalities and even make friends! I m happy to meet here some people I dond want to lose anymore!
Scammers? Yes, there are a lot of them. But I dont want to talk about that.
I am just surprised about the fact that I ve seen here a lot of hatred of people to each other, or to others' religion, especially to muslems!
Shouting in every corner of this site that all muslims and Isman means terror they insult all of us, muslims!
We are not terrorists! Terrorizm has no religion! Islam is a very peaceful and kind religion which says killing is a sin!
Those who kill in the name of Muslims are not muslims at all!!!
Just look at that:
I dont want to go into the details now!
I underwent a huge stress trying to explain people that we are not murderers! I cried so much from their agression towards me! I had to take strong medicine and go to a doctor. Why? What is going on??? These people are about to kill all the muslems in the world. So who is the terrorist then???
I know even in this thread some users of CS will again write things insulting us! I dont want to read it anymore!
Pleeeeease, I am asking you to stop that! Pleeeeease, just prohibit political subjects here!!!
People come here to find their eternal love and not to involve here political issues.
I hope you will show your wisdom and make a right decision!
Prohibit people to insult and humiliate people here!
With a great respect to the administration...

From The Independent;
In response to:
Best known in her native US for "Poetry Man", the jazz-tinged love song she wrote about an affair with a married man, Phoebe Snow possessed a formidable contralto voice, with a four-octave range, and a bluesy, smoky, soulful quality that, along with her curly hair and olive skin meant she was sometimes thought to be black, when she was in fact Jewish.
Her 1974 eponymous debut became a classic of the singer-songwriter genre and earned her a Grammy nomination for Best New Artist alongside Bad Company, Johnny Bristol, David Essex, Graham Central Station and the winner, the film composer Marvin Hamlisch. Many industry insiders attending the ceremony in March 1975 felt Snow should have won, but she was happy enough just to be there, and to see Aretha Franklin, one her main influences, perform.
By then, the delicate "Poetry Man" and her delightful first album were on their way into the Top 5, and, after opening for Jackson Browne and Paul Simon, she seemed destined to be a mainstay of jazz and adult contemporary radio stations, which had started to feature the easy shuffle of "Harpo's Blues", another deceptively dark highlight from her debut. In the summer of 1975 she graced the cover of Rolling Stone and was back in the US Top 30 with a stunning, soaring guest appearance on "Gone At Last", a collaboration with Simon and the gospel group the Jessy Dixon Singers, from his No 1 album Still Crazy After All These Years.
Snow took her pregnancy, by boyfriend Phil Kearns, in her stride. But in December 1975, she gave birth to a girl, Valerie, who suffered from asphyxia and was put in intensive care.
Over the next three decades, Snow rejected pleas to place her child in an institution and devoted most of her time and energy to her. Though Valerie's eyesight and hearing had been badly affected and she couldn't speak, she did recognise her mother and enjoyed her singing. Snow never regretted her decision to sacrifice her career and care for her daughter who defied medical expectations and died in 2007.
However, Snow struggled with self-esteem and weight issues, and a music business desperate to pigeonhole her. "I'm not a natural gorgeous person," she reflected. "I mean, if I'm gonna look presentable, I have to work at it." To support her daughter, she recorded advertising jingles and commercials in a voice so distinctive she could only do a handful a year.
Snow was not only a sensitive singer-songwriter of disarming honesty, but also a supreme interpreter of other people's material, as she demonstrated on P.S. and I Can't Complain, the two albums of covers she released in the nineties. Indeed, she scored her only UK hit in 1979 with a wonderful version of Paul McCartney's "Every Night", from the Beatle's 1970 solo debut that she reinterpreted for Against The Grain, the last of her four Columbia albums.
Born in New York in 1950, she grew up in Teaneck, New Jersey. Her father, who worked for Viking Press and subsequently as a pest controller, was a frustrated performer, and struggled to come to terms with her precociousness. But her mother, a dance teacher, saw her daughter's talent and bought her piano and dance lessons....

Some benifits of an afternoon nap
Sleep is very, very good. And while it's essential to get a solid seven to nine hours per night, when you occasionally miss the mark, a nap can help a great deal.
Hey! it's still a good idea even if you do get enough sleep.
Here are seven reasons why you should take a nap right now:
1. It'll increase your patience.
2. You'll be more alert.
3. Just thinking about taking a nap can lower your blood pressure.
4. It helps you remember more.
5. It can improve creativity.
6. Regular naps may prevent heart disease.
7. Taking a ten-minute rest is beneficial, too.
8. If you want more prettier, a short nap also can help.
What are you waiting for? Get snoozing and dream!
Well, what else more about an afternoon nap...?
Have a nice day!
