The KNS has a big full page ad for their Women Today Expo 2006. I could just rerun the same thing I posted about it at that "other blog" for the last three or four years. But that wouldn't be sporting.

This year's featured celebrity speakers include a supermodel talking about "body image and self-esteem" and a home improvement show host talking about "bedroom redesign." There are also, of course, seminars on cooking, fashion, makeup, etc., all designed to help today's woman perform better in the kitchen and look good for her man while performing wifely duties in their newly redesigned and tres chic bedroom.

(The Paula Deen Cooking School actually sounds pretty good, and I might have to attend that myself.)

Exhibitors include the usual lineup of local hair salons, cosmetic reps, department stores, fashion and jewelry stores, liposuction, botox and laser hair/wrinkle/blemish removal clinics, herbal weight-loss products, and more.

I haven't been able to find any seminars on education/job training, career/small business development, dealing with discrimination and sexual harassment on the job or domestic violence at home, reproductive health, establishing credit and planning for financial independence, sources of legal aid for collecting child support from deadbeat dads, or anything like that. A co-host of some network morning show will be there to talk about "Living the American Dream." Maybe she's going to cover all that.
