A DATING service for people with learning disabilities which has introduced 15 couples and arranged more than 100 dates, is looking for funding to continue.

Mates ’n Dates was launched in October 2007, and now has almost 250 members across Oxfordshire.

Guideposts Trust, based in Witney, co-ordinates the service on behalf of Oxford Learning DisabilityPartnership Board, the Ridgeway Partnership and the charities Kingwood and Style Acre.

Mates ’n’ Dates co-ordinator Hannah Wolstenholme, 30, said: “We have chaperoned 68 dates so far this year, and many have led to further dates and even relationships. There are 15 couples we know of who have found love and many more who have made great friends, and that’s what it is all about.”

Mates ’n’ Dates recruits members, aged 18-80 through day centres, charities and word of mouth, and organises social events like barn dances, bi-monthly speed-dating and a ball. Nearly 80 people attended the last speed-dating event.

Miss Chapman, 28, told friends she had been seeing Michael Bittan, 60, a New Jersey millionaire, after they met more than a year ago in a Manhattan nightclub popular with Russians.

"He was older but he clearly loves surrounding himself with beautiful women, mostly Russian, and since the spring Anna was in his inner circle," a member of the same party set told the New York Daily News.

Miss Chapman, who moved to New York in February after living for in London for four years, could be jailed for five years if convicted of conspiracy to act as the agent of a foreign government.

Described by a prosecutor as a "practised deceiver", she has already been denied bail as a potential flight risk.

I wanted to send a warning out to all of my relationship-seeking friends concerning the nature of a potentially possessive and controlling new companion. It might seem that your new boyfriend or girlfriend has a small insecurity problem and you might even think it is cute when he or she sticks by your side, asks you all sorts of personal questions, wants all of the details of your past relationships and demands to know whom you talk to. You might even be flattered by all of the sudden attention. But I want you to stop and seriously assess your relationship if your new partner is coming on a bit too strong. There might be a very serious and negative drawback to this behavior.

Our lovely Siberian beauty Lena has a new video and its in high definition no less.

Nothing fancy here.

Just a simple walk in the park that I hope all of you will enjoy and appreciate.

Unfortunately PETA ..

But I'm very fond of referring Russian lady in a fur coat.

If you live in a place like Siberia, there is simply nothing more incredible to watch especially during the long winters here.

And you know that the greatest thing?

Russian ladies who wear these coats completely without guilt, when they walk in them. In fact they are damn proud of their coats and rightly so.

I was very busy with the gentleman who you will hear more about in the future.

He decided to take a decisive step in a big way, and moved to Siberia to see for themselves the things that I described in this site.

It's still early in its migration, and it has not been disappointed yet.

In fact, I believe that he witnessed for himself how far this rabbit hole goes.

And it's all good gentlemen.

It was a neat re-experiencing a sense of wonder again, his eyes as he comes in contact with various ladies.

I know it can be hard to believe ...

But you will not believe how many beautiful girls I've met here who do not believe that they look like models ...

My friend Snejana is a classic example of this.

Incredibly humble with her self-esteem and completely baffled by what I would like to beautify this blog, taking her photos.

Feminist playwright Zoe Lewis decided to confront the bitter truth about his life as a feminist inspired.

Of course, I respect her courage in coming out and condemning the self-destructive cultural norms she was lead to believe

But part of me wonders how many relationships she personally threw under the bus to her age caught up with her and the men finally stopped coming round?

What is the future, every woman, so look forward to when they ignore the special challenge Mother Nature, and then simply not enough time?

(RW_man Note:. This is one of the most important post that you've ever read on this site)

For many years I have spent a deep suspicion that the development of modern feminism has never been a grass-roots movement from the distribution base is satisfied with a woman that she had always been painted to be.

He was always very well funded .. too smooth with his propaganda .. and perhaps most impressive of all .. suddenly ubiquitous with positive portrayals in news and media.
