Hello everyone!! Welcome to, the Mah Jongg for Everyone! group. This page will explain how the group works. In our Meetup we play, American Mah Jongg. In other words, if you don’t know what a Mah Jongg card is and or don’t play with jokers, then you haven’t played American Mah Jongg and you will need to come first to a “Teaching and Experienced Players Session”. After you have been taught by Cathy (Meetup Organizer), you then are considered an “Experienced” player and can attend any “Experien …

We are a great bunch of ladies who like eating food, and like reading food books, cookbooks, and food magazines. We love to read about recipe's and food adventures and food memoirs. We try to meet once a month at a coffee shop or restaurant for brunch on Sundays.  Usually noon.  We close applications often.  If you're lucky and we're open, apply and tell me about yourself so I know you are a foodie bookclub fit.  I appologize for this, but it has been important to keep our meetings small, becaus …

Angry Black Women Poem By L. Aaron As much as I hate to say it and add fuel to the flames that singes away at the souls of a race of beautiful women. I must confess that I am an angry black woman. She and I are one in the same and yet one of many. I accept this title with acknowledgement and realization that it does not define me and the essence of my being. It is not the single most relevant characteristic of who I am as a woman of African decent. It is however an identifying emotion of my lif …

I have traveled to Italy at least once and sometimes twice a year for the last 12 years. I always start in Rome since for the most part it's the most direct route from America. Truth be told, I think you can never get enough of this incredible city short of living there anyway. One year I was there 3 times. All of my trips have been for at least 10 days and many for 2 weeks or more. After coming into Rome and spending at least a day or two there I go on to either Florence or Sorrento. I rent an …

My vision for this group is to bring everyone together from photographers to models, and makeup artists to fashion designers- working together and helping one another build portfolios, expand your network, help those with less experience, and schmooze with others in the industry.

Here in northeastern Wisconsin, maintaining a diet rich in raw foods can be especially challenging. Long wint …

We've all seen or know the type of woman who has a magnetic personal presence.  The type of woman to whom people are naturally attracted and drawn to.  The kind of woman who walks into a room with an air of confidence that gives her instant credibility; who connects with people easily; who attracts the kind of attention SHE wants and deserves without having to try so hard to get it.  She always seems to be seen by the right people at the right time, and is so effective in both her professional a …

Underwater WHAT? Underwater Hockey is a co-ed, non-contact, water sport played on the bottom of the pool. It is a very unique game in that it is 3-dimensional and requires you to play while holding your breath. Players wear fins, for speed, as well as masks, snorkels, and protective gloves and headgear. The sticks are short -- about one foot long -- so players can move them quickly through the water. Sticks flick and flash as players maneuver the puck on the bottom, shoot the puck past (or over …

How many times have you had difficulty making a decision because one part of you wanted one thing, but another part of you wanted something else? “A part of me wants to…another part doesn’t.” Conflicting inner 'parts' of ourselves are one of the main obstacles to inner peace and personal power: • Parts of us who want to do new things are blocked by parts who are afraid to take risks. • Parts of us who want to get things done are stumped by parts who procrastinate. • Parts of us who want to be …

As a busy working mom, I needed help getting dinner on the table and searched for a solution that did not include me doing all the work, every night. I found that the meal assembly kitchen in my neighborhood, Entree Kitchen, was the perfect solution. Best part of all, it's fun to make a month's worth of meals in an hour or two when I meet new people and bring along some friends.

We use the miniprotesting method of curbside activism to spread progressive messaging throughout Wisconsin. Miniprotesting is a simple concept, conceived to deliver more message from less people. Unlike a generalized rally, the miniprotesting model uses a focused, running message conveyed through three main 30" x 40" signs displayed at eye level for motorists, each a block apart. These main signs are held waist high, while the folks surrounding them hold traditional overhead signs on the same th …

Hi, I am Emily and I have a 7-month old daughter. I started this group to connect with other parents of babies who are roughly the same age as my daughter, both to make friends for my daughter and myself! We will get together every Thursday, as soon as we have a small little group, so we can all know that every Thursday we have a get together if we want to go!

We will try each of these coffee shops 1. BRIDGEPORT COFFEE HOUSE The coffee-roasting operation on the corner of Morgan and 31st Street is a point of pride for Bridgeport and a source of jealousy for almost every other neighborhood. Housed in a prototypically warm-toned, wood-heavy coffeehouse (only without the fleabag couches and drum-circle vibe), Bridgeport Coffee sets itself apart by roasting its own beans and brewing them with levels of respect usually reserved for presidents. The pour-ov …

Since the beginning I've had a sense that there ought to be some discipline of cognition, some art of thinking, the studying of which would make its students visibly more competent, more formidable: the equivalent of Taking a Level in Awesome. - "A Sense That More Is Possible"

What's that? You have a bouncy new (or slightly less new) baby and your life no longer looks the same? The once rockstar existence of pre-baby has come to a screeching slow down and you've set aside (but never abandon) your pleather for pacifiers and late-nights out for late-nights in? Yeah, me too. Doubts, pressures and panic has wrapped up in the joy and excitement of a new baby and suddenly a lot of supportive non-baby-having friends have slowly drifted... I'm hoping to find new (and slightly …

This group is for anyone who wants to bring Guided Meditation into their lives for Relaxation, Stress Release and Spiritual Enlightenment. So many of us forget that you have to actually take care of yourself first and foremost. Many people do not stop to think of how they are truly effecting others by their negativity and chaos. Did you know that by not having balance and less stress we age faster, forget easier, have mood swings, our health deteriorates and sometimes even lose the ones we love …
