Jeffrey Norman Scott: My favorite pizza place ever was Symposium Greek pizza in Davis, CA, though I'm relatively happy at any Round Table. As for my favorite topping, just yesterday I was rereading "Ash Wednesday" by T.S. Eliot (who can guess the topping?): Lady, three white leopards sat under a juniper-tree In the cool of the day, having fed to satiety On my legs my heart my liver and that which had been contained In the hollow round of my skull. And God said Shall these bones live? shall these Bones live? And that which had been contained In the bones (which were already dry) said chirping: Because of the goodness of this Lady And because of her loveliness, and because She honours the Virgin in meditation, We shine with brightness. And I who am here dissembled Proffer my deeds to oblivion, and my love To the posterity of the desert and the fruit of the gourd.

    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Different for Girls A Girl's Own True-life Adventures in Pop by Louise Wener What I see in the mirror: Louise Wener. I 'm in my 40s now, and when I look in the mirror I notice my face changing every year. I like my big features, which give my face strength, but I can see everything softening, as if my face is losing focus with the emergent creases and the droop. There's nothing I relish about looking older, but I'm happier in my skin than when I was younger. I was an archetypal geek in my teens: spots, frizzy hair and pink, plastic National Health spectacles. On top of that, I had a huge strawberry birthmark in the centre of my chest that took years of laser treatment to remove. I was teased about it as a kid, which made me horribly self- conscious. I lived in high-cut T-shirts and polo-neck jumpers. By the time my band Sleeper were successful and appearing on Top Of The Pops, I'd become something of a pin-up. I had a mixed attitude to being described as a sex symbol. At times it felt as if I was having my Olivia Newton-John moment, where she emerges triumphant at the end of Grease. At others it felt reductive and diminishing. I've always been tragically low maintenance, even more so since I've had children. I'm hoping the rarer the "left-alone" look is, the cooler it's going to be.
