Arthur's Lady's Home Magazine Arthur's Home Magazine (1852-ca.1898) or Ladies' Home Magazine was an American periodical published in Philadelphia by Timothy Shay Arthur. Editors Arthur and Virginia Francis Townsend selected writing and illustrations intended to appeal to female readers. Among the contributors: Mary Tyler Peabody Mann and Kate Sutherland. In its early years the monthly comprised a selection of articles originally published in Arthur's weekly "Home Gazette." Its nonfiction stories contained occasional factual inaccuracies for the sake of a good read. A contemporary review judged it "gotten up in good taste and well; and is in nothing overdone. Even its fashion plates are not quite such extravagant caricatures of rag-baby work as are usually met with in some of the more fancy magazines." Readers included patrons of the Mercantile Library Association of San Francisco.

Lady The word lady is a civil term of respect for a woman, specifically the female equivalent to gentleman, and also an English-language formal title. "Lady" is used before the surname of a woman with a title of nobility or honorary title "suo jure", or the wife of a lord, a baronet, and a knight, and also before the first name of the daughter of a Duke, Marquess, or Earl. Once used to describe only women of a high social class, race, community, and status; now the term is commonly used to refer to any respectable adult woman, or even any woman. However, from a conservative point of view this usage is still controversial, just as it is for all adult men to be deemed to be "gentlemen".

CPC Attack! CPC Attack! was a short-lived magazine dedicated to Amstrad CPC gaming. The magazine was a successor to "Amstrad Computer User" magazine. It was characterised by a strong comic-like graphical style featuring a recurring mascot - a Tank Girl-like character called Amy Strad. Funnily enough this same character featured in "C+VG" magazine under the name "Sadie". Originally, "Amstrad Computer User" had been a much more serious magazine than its main rival "Amstrad Action". The radical redesign to "CPC Attack!" was probably an attempt to appeal to "Amstrad Action" readers.

Lady Charlotte Guest Lady Charlotte Elizabeth Guest (née Bertie; 19 May 1812 – 15 January 1895), later Lady Charlotte Schreiber, was an English aristocrat who is best known as the first publisher in modern print format of "The Mabinogion" which is the earliest prose literature of Britain. Guest established "The Mabinogion" as a source literature of Europe, claiming this recognition among literati in the context of contemporary passions for the Chivalric romance of King Arthur and the Gothic movement. The title Guest used derived from a mediaeval copyist error already established in the 18th century by William Owen Pughe and the London Welsh societies.

My Day My Day was a newspaper column that was written by First Lady of the United States Eleanor Roosevelt six days a week from 1935 to 1962. From 1961 until 1962, issues were only published every other day because Roosevelt became too sick to write on her usual schedule. In her column, she discussed issues such as race, women, and key events (Pearl Harbor, Prohibition, H Bomb, etc.). This column allowed Roosevelt to spread her ideas and thoughts to millions of Americans and give them a new view on the issues they faced every day. George T. Bye, Eleanor Roosevelt's literary agent, encouraged her to write the column. With this column, Roosevelt became the first First Lady to write a daily newspaper column. Roosevelt also wrote for "Ladies Home Journal", McCall's, and various articles in Vogue and other women's magazines.
