Can a down-on-her-luck princess really have it all?
A whisper away from thirty, gorgeous Tess Hamilton has been the tennis world's top titleholder and celebrity since she won her first championship at fifteen. Now the headline-making party girl is getting her first taste of mortality–thanks to new teenage phenom Gabrielle Fontaine. But it's Gaby's cool, calm, and all-too-collected brother and manager, Max, who really has Tess seeing double. He's the first man she can't seem to seduce–or intimidate. It appears Tess is truly off her game, until a real-life, modern-day fairy godmother steps in.…
Aurora Favreaux, a founder of Glass Slipper, Inc., and an old family friend, has a plan to get Tess back on her stilettos, and it includes an unlikely meeting between Tess, Max, and Gaby at Glass Slipper's new London headquarters–just in time for Wimbledon. It seems that Tess is going to hit the courts in a whole new way, to prove to the world–and herself–that a woman with the heart of a champion can ace life and love–even after the big 3-0.…

Read an Excerpt
Chapter One
Yes, Alden, I know I'm no longer on the tour, but" Tess Hamilton bit her lip and, more firmly, her tongue as the Nike marketing rep continued talking over her. For Tess, not talking when she had something to sayand she had a whole lot of things to say at the momentwas like trying not to breathe.
She ripped her Boxster S convertible across three lanes of traffic on I-4, ignoring the honks and shouted commentary regarding her driving skills. She had to make her exit, right? Besides, at the moment, she had far bigger things to worry about than instigating inadvertent road rage. Lord knew she'd been responsible for far worse and lived to tell the tale.
The rep paused for an infinitesimal breath and Tess leaped in. "I appreciate what you're saying, really, I do, but this is shortsighted thinking." She raised her voice to be heard over the rush of road noise. God, she loved driving with the top down. Of course, shouting suited her rising temper at the moment, too.
"We're moving in new directions, Tess. So we're looking for a different kind of image. We need to stay fresh. I'm sure you understand."
No, she didn't understand. She refused to understand. She was no longer fresh? Well, shit, how mortifying was that? Not even thirty years old, and her shelf life had already expired?
She accelerated, going way too fast down the winding suburban road leading to her home in the elite, gated, Boca Raton community of Sea Spar. A home she loved. A home she'd bought and paid for with her own hard-earned income. Income which, since her career-ending injury the summer before last, had rapidly ceased to match her outgo. Mostly because of shortsighted morons like the marketing rep currently droning on in her headset about focus groups and future percentages.
She took a sharp turn without decelerating, leaving rubber behind as she fought to keep her temper in check. Unlike past run-ins with various sponsors and marketing reps, this wasn't about some stupid tabloid headline or missed promotional event. She could have talked her way out of that . . . and often had. Too often. No, this time her entire life was on the line. What was left of it, anyway.
And okay, sure, maybe that was partly due to the fact that she so often had spoken out when it would have been smarter to shut up. Financially smarter, at least. She was a firm believer that if more people spoke their mind instead of blowing smoke up people's asses and saying what they thought everyone wanted to hear, the world would be a much better place. But it wasn't like her sponsors hadn't known that when they signed on the dotted line with her. It hadn't mattered to them then.
However, as the condescending, very annoying man on the other end of the phone was making unavoidably and quite painfully clear, it mattered a whole hell of a lot right now.
She tapped her horn as she turned into the lavishly landscaped, stone-and-wrought-iron entrance, alerting Saul, the gate guard, of her impending arrival. She barely slowed as the bar began to rise, having to duck her head just slightly to keep it from catching on the brim of her tennis hat. She caught a glimpse of Saul, shaking his balding head as he always did when she zipped past, a blur of midnight blue and chrome. This time she didn't wave or blow an apologetic kiss they both knew was completely insincere. Not that she didn't have a soft spot for Saul, she just wasn't particularly remorseful about her no-prisoners style of driving. And she was pretty sure Saul secretly admired her for that.
She passed a string of long, winding driveways leading to this sprawling mansion or that, paying them no attention whatsoever, until she finally turned into her own drive. She slowed slightly, her attention snagging as it always did now, on the two pristine tennis courts laid out so perfectly behind her equally beautiful, perfect house. She'd spent countless hours on those courts.
Alden took another breath and Tess took advantage again, struggling mightily to keep her voice calm, her tone even. "Your company originally signed on with me, in part, because I was media bait!" Okay, so maybe she needed to work a little harder on the calm, even part. But honestly, had there ever really been a chance that she'd have kept her cool? The man was robbing her blind here.
And hell, she still hadn't recovered from the mauling she'd taken at the hands of good old Uncle Sam over that whole income tax fiasco last year. Then there was this past April's tab . . . yeesh. She might as well have been bending over when she saw the figure on the bottom line. She didn't even want to think about next year . . . and she wouldn't have to if Alden here would just get with the program.
It wasn't like it was her fault she hadn't exactly been up on the latest tax codes, or knew anything about what payment was due when. That was her accountant's job. Yes, yes, she had fired the man before the extension due date last summerwell, he claimed he quit, but that was semantics, really. And she hadn't even known about the damn extension, much less the due date. Of course, it was true he'd been pestering her for some time about a number of things that needed her attention, but she'd been focused on rehabbing her shoulder, mentally grappling with not being on the tour, dealing with the dawning reality that she'd probably never be going back, with having to retire before she was ready . . .
Suffice it to say, it had been a really rough year. And the government had so not been understanding about that fact. A lot like certain members of her family.
And now May was almost over, a new year almost half done, and this one wasn't going much better. Her life was still upside down, emotionally and financially, and she couldn't seem to find a way to balance it again. Which, admittedly, was why she and her accountant had had the falling out in the first place. He'd actually had the nerve to lecture her on developing proper postretirement spending habits! She'd laughed.
Well, she wasn't laughing now. And restraining her natural spiritokay, temperwasn't what put those ten grand-slam trophies on her mantelpiece, now, was it? "Alden, you know as well as I do that it was my face, my temperament on court and off, and my winning record that lined your company's pockets all those years." Gripping her cell phone so tightly it was a miracle it didn't snap in two, she slammed out of her car and stalked past the other three vehicles filling her four-car garage, before automatically punching in the security code and striding into her house. She stopped at the floor-to-ceiling picture window that made up the back wall on the main floor. "It's only been a little over a year."
"Almost two years," Alden mildly corrected.
"Twenty-one months since the injury," she shot back. "I only officially retired last September." That press conference had been exactly two days before the first lovely letter from the IRS had shown up. Talk about a bad week.
"You've been off the tour for two seasons, Tess. Two years in the tennis world is a long time when you're never coming back."
"I was number one for sixty-one straight weeks, and still top five when I went out, against girls a decade younger than me. People haven't exactly forgotten me."
"Martina Hingis," he said, adopting a slightly harder edge to his tone. "Monica Seles. Both former number ones, both multiple grand-slam winners, both retired before their time. How long afterward were you seeing their faces launching new ad campaigns?" He didn't wait for her to answer. "You didn't, because they weren't. It's a very competitive marketplace, Tess, you know that. We have to stay on the cutting edge of whatever sport we're associating with our product. And that means"
"Snagging fresh meat," Tess snapped. "I get that. I know this is business, Alden. It's business for me, too. Something you seem to have overlooked here. I've held up my end all these years. Whatever happened to loyalty?"
Alden sighed deeply. "The fact that I'm speaking to you directly, and not your agent or manager, should tell you all you need to know."
"My management team didn't drop me, I dropped them!" Okay, so maybe that was stretching things a little. The official word was that they'd amicably agreed to part ways. What that really meant was that they'd found out about the heavy hit she'd taken as a result of last year's tax debaclewhich she'd paid in full, thank you very much. Mostly to keep word of it out of the press, but still, it shouldn't have affected her viability as an asset to the agency. So what if she'd had to liquidate a few assets? Okay, more than a few. Okay, almost all of them. But honestly, some of them she hadn't even remembered she'd owned. An indication right thereoutwardly, anywaythat things weren't that bad.
Maybe to some people's way of thinking, the tax debt had been kind of big . . . okay, so it had been close to eight figures. Her accountant hadn't been kidding about her neglect of certain business issues. Still, to her, that wasn't as big a deal as it might have been to some. Lesson learned. She'd just earn it back and be smarter next time. Offers poured in every day. Or they used to, but still, it would happen, she'd recover. And didn't she deserve some credit for paying it all off? Hell, it had been like having a giant international yard sale to come up with that kind of money. Did they have any idea how personally humiliating that had been? How hard to keep it out of the public eye? Like she needed more stress.
And yes, so her continued tangled financial picture hadn't been encouraging, what with April 15 rolling around almost right after she'd gotten done making the first payoff. With nothing new coming in, she'd had another little liquidation sale, and yes, it had zapped pretty much everything she had left. But all she needed was one or two little endorsement deals to get started, not too much to ask, to her way of thinking. She just wanted to keep a roof over her head. One roof! She'd sold all the others, hadn't she? Was it her fault the deals weren't being renewed? She'd placed that blame squarely on the agency. It was their job to get them to sign her, wasn't it? And they were mad at her?
Unfortunately, they hadn't appreciated her logic.
The bottom line was that they'd amicably agreed to sign a confidentiality statement saying they'd keep her less-than-flattering financial picture under wraps . . . as long as she agreed to terminate her contract with them effective immediately. Almost a year before it was due to expire. Of course, she'd left their offices smugly certain she'd find new representation immediately. She always had before. So she'd lost a few contracts, so what? When the big boys came calling, renewing her major endorsement deals, every agency on both coasts would be begging to represent her again.
Which would have been supremely satisfying if it had happened that way. But here she was, still without representation. And Alden as her last hope. Yippee. And he was making it sound like, during the short time span from her injury to now, an entire era had passed her by.
So. Time to change tactics. She was all for histrionics if they were going to pay off, or if they simply made her feel better. But, just like on the court, when something wasn't working, you either changed your game, or you went home early. Perhaps now was the time to be a tad more conciliatory. Show that she understood the gravity of the situation. Lord knows it was pretty damn grave. "Alden," she said, forcing sweetness into her voice, "what if I fly to New York and we all sit down and discuss this, toss around a few ideas. Your company is known for being innovative. We just need to think outside the box a little. Shake things up."
"I don't think that's going to work for us, Tess. I'm sorry."
Staring down at her empty tennis courts, she finally ducked her chin and squeezed her eyes shut as she tried to come up with the right thing to say. She rubbed her fingers across her eyes, surprised to find they came away damp. Which pissed her off all over again. Panic wasn't a part of her makeup. She'd never been a handwringer and she didn't plan on starting now. She was a fighter, dammit.
"You're walking away from a good thing, Alden," she said firmly, hoping he mistook the slight hoarse edge in her voice for restrained temper. She tried to convince herself of that, too. "Now that I'm a free agent, someone else is going to step up and reap those rewards."
"I wish you all the best, Tess," was all he said. "I really do." Then the line went dead.
Tess clicked the phone off, and barely resisted the urge to fling it full force at the plate glass. It was quite probable that Alden knew damn well there wasn't anyone else waiting in the wings to snap her up for a new deal. For all its international stature, the tennis industry was a tight little community. One where everybody knew everybody else's business, not to mention their dirty laundry. Since announcing her retirement, she'd worked her ass off to make damn sure nobody knew hers.
Judging by the questions the media shouted her way when she attended this event or that, she'd been mostly successful. But that couldn't last much longer. It was all about appearances and public perception. As long as the public thought she was still a winner, still a success story, still a hot property, then she was one. It was as simple as that, and as complicated as that. But she'd always been a winner. That part had been easy for her.
Only now there was nothing for her to win. And the companies who'd signed her to represent their products for the past decade were naming new faces. Fresher faces. Her window of income opportunity was rapidly shrinking and public perception could shift on a dime. Maybe she'd been shortsighted in assuming her endorsement deals would continue to finance her cash flow, but it was too late to shift gears now. Besides, what else was there?
Two years ago, at the age of twenty-seven, retirement had been relatively imminent, but not immediate. She'd thought she'd have a few years to plan things out, to think ahead, make sure she was secure when she left the tour behind, future plans all laid out. Well, her shoulder had had other ideas. One flying lunge on the hard courts at the U.S. Open the summer before last had changed everything. She'd landed smack down on her right shoulder, her serving shoulder, decimating the previous three repair jobs and abruptly ending her career. Not that she'd initially accepted that assessment. Or that of the surgeon who had tried his best to repair the damage one more time. It had taken nine months of grueling, heartbreaking rehabilitation before she'd finally been forced to admit that her shoulder wasn't ever going to recover to the point where she could compete on a world-class level again. The damage was too extensive.

This is a good story about coping with change. Tess learns a lot about what is really important in her life and falls in love.
Cute book.....the characters come to terms with her fall from grace and learns the value of love!!!!
I bought and read all the books in this series. I have enjoyed them and thought that this might be another winner. Unfortunately, this book is about the game of tennis and not the love story you expected. The romance appeared in the last 30 or so pages and that was it. I wouldn't recommend this book to anyone. Really.
Tess Hamilton has been on top of the tennis world for years, but failed to plan on a post sports future as she thought she had years to go. Poor investments and bad spending habits leave her near broke even as an injury may have ended her career. A desperate Tess decides she needs some sponsors so she hides her injuries hoping to bluff her way through a few victories due to her unbeatable reputation. --- Glass Slipper, Inc co-founder Aurora Favreaux knows something is wrong with Tess so she coaxes her friend to coach the new teenage phenomena fifteen years old Gabrielle Fontaine. Tess unenthusiastically accepts the job with plans to get back on the circuit as soon as possible. She finds her student is talented, but somewhat stubborn worse she finds herself attracted to Gaby's over-protective over bearing, older brother Max, who manages her tennis career. Max reluctantly agreed to hire Tess, but has doubts about a woman who has been tabloid heaven or hell (perspective) for fifteen years starting the same age as his sister is now. Neither understood what love in tennis really is before. --- The latest Glass Slippers tale (see SLEEPING WITH BEAUTY) is a fun sports romance starring an extremely responsible male and a great female athlete who knows what she has lost as her career begins to fade. Needing money due to poor financial management that left her broke and owing the IRS is why she took the job, but Aurora soon becomes more like a big sister to Gaby than just a coach and the soulmate to Max. Though some mixing of sports metaphors might Tee off fanatics NOT SO SNOW WHITE serves up a six love romance starring a couple of aces. --- Harriet Klausner

Polish manager Waldemar Fornalik was keeping his cards close to his chest when he met the media in Aviva Stadium on the eve of Wednesday's friendly international with Ireland. As per his tradition, Giovanni Trapattoni named his team a day ahead of the game while Fornalik, despite probing from the Polish press, was sticking with his own tradition of only announcing the team on the day of the game.
Most speculation about Fornalik's team revolves around the goalkeeping situation and who to choose from between the two English based goalkeepers in his squad. The decision is between Arsenal's Wojciech Szczesny and Southampton's 'keeper Arthur Boruc. Fornalik hinted that both may play a part in the game but the goalkeeping situation "is a competition. We haven't made a decision yet."
Fornalik is looking forward to playing in front of the Aviva Stadium crowd that could well provide a home-like atmosphere for his team. "It is very hard to say who the favourite is as there will be so many supporters from Poland. If there was only Irish supporters, they would have the 12th player but in this scenario it is hard to say who is the favourite."
Both sides were eliminated in the group stages of Euro 2012 but Poland, who drew against Greece and Russia, only went out when they conceded a late goal to the Czech Republic in their final group game. Ireland's performances, admittedly in a much harder group, were thoroughly forgettable, as was the 6-1 defeat to Germany last Autumn.
Fornalik wasn't reading too much into that heavy loss to Germany. "We have analysed the Irish team. It is hard to base our opinion's on the game against Germany. We are ready for every option to be honest," he said in relation to Ireland's formation. "Let us not forget that the Irish team took part in Euro 2012. They got into Euro 2012, this is quite crucial. Every team after such a tournament goes through a process of change which could be quite problematic. Ireland is also going through that process of change. Ireland can do quite well and will not be an easy team to beat."
Fornalik has had to deal with the loss of influential defender Lukasz Piszczek. The Borussia Dortmund player picked up a hip injury at the weekend against Bayer Leverkusen and, while he joined up with the Polish squad at the weekend, he returned to Germany on Tuesday while the rest of the squad travelled to Dublin. Widzew Lodz's Lukasz Broz was called up as a replacement.
The Polish manager admitted "this is a problem for us. The replacement for Piszczek will be somebody who will bring a lot of value to the team so that should diminish the loss. There are three possibilities of players who could play in that position." These include Sebastian Boenisch and Marci Wasiliewski but Jakub Wawrzyniak from Legia Warswa is expected to start.
Grzegorz Krychowiak will anchor the midfield but as to who will play along side him, well, Fornalik was giving nothing away. "I will not answer this question in front of the media. The players will find out first. We have a few candidates and a few options for us. I don't think there will be too many surprises."
Poland currently lie third in Group H behind Montenegro and England with Ukraine behind them in the table and the focus after this friendly will be their home game with Ukraine next month. "I would like to say that this match is quite important to us. It is a very important test before the World Cup elimination matches and before the match with Ukraine. The group of players that came with us is a strong group of players. They can show good football. We count on our team and we count on their good performance."
Poland (probable): Wojciech Szcz?sny (Arsenal); Jakub Wawrzyniak (Legia Warsaw), Damien Perquis (Real Betis), Kamil Glik (Torino), Sebastian Boenisch (Bayer Leverkusen); Jakub B?aszczykowski (Borussia Dortmund), Grzegorz Krychowiak (Reims), Daniel ?ukasik (Legia Warsaw), Adrian Mierzejewski (Trabzonspor); Ludovic Obraniak (Bordeaux), Robert Lewandowski (Borussia Dortmund).

Clinical-Style Validation, Regulation, and Quality Control...
Keep the Opportunities, Lose the Opportunists
Co-Sourcing Improves Pharmaceutical Laboratory Productivity
Capitol Hill Critics Second-Guess Agencies Using...
Curetis reported the expansion of its Series A financing by €9.6 million (about $13.37 million). The additional funds reportedly increase the round to a total of €34.1 million (roughly $47.49 million) and total capital raised to date to €36.6 million (approximately $50.97 million).
The latest financing was led by Forbion Capital Partners together with Roche Venture Fund. Holger Reithinger, partner at Forbion, has joined Curetis' board, and Roche will get an observer seat.
Since its inception in 2007, Curetis has developed the Unyvero™ instrument for handling disease-specific disposable cartridges for the analysis of various marker panels, covering both pathogens and antibiotic resistance genes. The workflow is fully automated and enables testing at the point of need, eliminating operator-induced variations and ensuring high-quality results in a short time frame, according to Curetis.
The first commercial application of Unyvero is for pneumonia testing. It has successfully proceeded through preclinical testing. "We are now well funded for the upcoming clinical trials as well as our planned 2012 European market launch of the Unyvero platform and pneumonia application," according to Oliver Schacht, CEO of Curetis.
"There is an urgent unmet medical need for faster identification of pathogens and resistance markers due to increasing antibiotic resistance and even multidrug resistance," Reithinger pointed out. "With pneumonia, most current diagnostics are still relying on culture-based technologies, which can take days to deliver results. Curetis' technology platform will reduce this timeline to hours."

About Me
Travel. I think traveling is life and more and more people should experience as much of it as possible. Because I love traveling so much, a bunch of us friends have a free service www.unwander.com to help travelers plan their itineraries and experience New York like a local. We did this because on our travels we always want to experience the place like a local but it is hard to find stuff on the internet. We want to just give back to traveling community via unwander and help them make the best out of New York.
I am passionate about sports. I literally would like to be good at playing anything. Some of the sports that I play are basketball, soccer, football. I was also boxing for few years. These days, I am strapped on time I just resort to running and going to the gym.
Really big into music and always trying to discover the next big tune. Its a big part of my life and I wouldn't know what to do without it. My ultimate aim in life is to produce music full time.
Some of the artists I like are Pretty Lights, Above and Beyond, Eric Prydz, Bastille, Radiohead, Neon Indian, M83 etc etc.
I work in downtown and also live downtown, which is beautiful, saves so much time. And, I love this area.
So yeah, hit me up if you need a couch or want to just grab a cup of coffee or a drink and especially if you need help finding stuff to do in New York.
Dont worry, be happy- Bob Marley

text: Posted August 23, 2013 You make an interesting point but I'm not sure how well Barner (or anyone his size) will hold up under all that punishment. With Stewart in limbo I'd like to see Tolbert be used more in the running game (when he's back) and I suspect we will. Put Brockel in at FB and let Tolbert pound the defense, then bring in DeAngelo/Barner when the defense is worn out for a change of pace. The more I watch our oline struggle, the more I realize how much we're going to need the read option to create running lanes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How can I make the plugin work with polylang ?
I have tried to modify the query in process.php in order to get the results in the current language.
I have tried
$query->set( 'language', 'english' );
$query->set( 'lang', 'en-US' );
But it still doesn't work
I have seen in the polylang documentation that I should modify the get_search_form function
Do you have an idea ?

But the SAAR came in at 16.68 million, well below May's 17.46 million rate and lower than the consensus forecast of 17.2 million. Automakers are counting on low interest rates, stable fuel prices, rising wages and near-full employment to counter some headwinds and continue driving sales in the second half.
Hyundai, Kia post small gains and large; records for bothFri, 01, Jul 2016
Both Kia and Hyundai set June sales records with help from crossovers. Kia sales rose 16 percent last month, while Hyundai sold nine more vehicles than in the year-earlier period.

Inventory, ads, incentives propel Nissan to 13% gainFri, 01, Jul 2016

BMW outsells Mercedes, Lexus as luxury race tightensFri, 01, Jul 2016
BMW outsold Mercedes-Benz and Lexus last month in the U.S. as all three of the market's largest sellers of luxury autos ended the first half behind their year-earlier totals.
Ford's F-series overcomes GM ad blitzFri, 01, Jul 2016
Sales of the Ford F series surged 29 percent last month in the face of a bitter Chevrolet ad campaign attacking the F-150's aluminum body as too fragile. The rest of Ford Motor Co.'s lineup posted a 0.8 percent decline from June 2015, with car volume dropping 12 percent.
Tight supplies dent Toyota's truck tally as volume falls 5.6%Fri, 01, Jul 2016
Toyota Motor Sales USA's June sales fell 5.6 percent to 198,257 units, dragged down by a slide in Toyota brand's sales of both cars and light trucks. Truck sales were hurt by availability issues, which company executives said are being addressed.
Jeep, Ram drive another gain for FCA as cars collapseFri, 01, Jul 2016
Continued strong pickup and SUV sales boosted Fiat Chrysler's sales 6.5 percent in June, despite a collapse in the automaker's car sales.
Fewer rental shipments lead GM to 1.6% dropFri, 01, Jul 2016
General Motors' June sales slipped 1.6 percent amid a continued reduction in shipments to daily rental operators. GM said it sold 255,210 light vehicles last month, which included 5,690 fewer rental units vs. a year earlier. Had rental deliveries been equal to last year, GM's overall sales would have been flat.

Not that pets are nature? Hey ho... if you insist.
So being in Devon, you don't like birds of prey either? You've a lot of gorgeous birds of prey there. There are a lot of birds that eat birds, animals that eat birds, even deer have been reported in eating some birds and the wonderful hedgehog will eat bird eggs. I think you'll find that it is actually just a part of nature and the life cycle and not really for us to interfere.
Ooops, I've watered cosmos every day for years, in pots or in the ground, I didn't know they didn't like lots of water. The only real difference I've found growing them is sunshine. My garden where I live now is north facing, so they don't grow as good as where I used to live, but the ones at my allotment this year are the largest and prettiest I've ever grown them and the only difference is they are in the sunshine all day long.
Hostafan, so you hate crows as well as squirrels and cats? Does the black list of nature ever end with you?
I would check to see if they are rooks too. They do indeed eat anything! Just put up a new squirrel proof feeder just to stop a family of rooks eating the whole lot in a day and the little birds can finally get a look-in. Good luck with your apples happycottontail.
Charlie - Until humans do less damage to wildlife and this planet, then they cannot preach about natural wildlife damage. Otherwise humans are a bunch of hypocrites... Sanctimonious greedy muderous control freaks
Glad you enjoyed the beans Pansy!
Not sure I agree with letting the cats roam meaning you don't care. I took on a 5 year old troubled, stressed and vicious cat who was kept as a house cat. It spent 5 years trying to get out the house with it's previous owner. The day I let it out and the cat turned around 100% overnight. It's calm, quiet, content now it's allowed outside. So am I supposed to quosh it's nature, cause it distress just because folk like you think I don't care? Feels like a sweeping and judging statement. Not all cats take to a lead, not all cats will stay indoors. I would prefer both, just so folk can't harm my cat, or it get killed by a car, but I can't make him live my ideals to his own detriment.. He deserves a quality of life too.Dove, wise words, thanks. I guess I got a bit irked when Charlie November posts about killing pets in German. That's more than a difference in opinion to me, that's violence against another living creature, just because it doesn't suit his lifestyle. Nice person.
Lou, or suck em to death? Might take a while....
Well said Northernlass... the problem is that folk can always take figures out of context.
And other figure for Charlie and scroggin to take on board is that pesticides kill about double the amount of birds each year than cats. Should we go around killing farmers then, using their logic? At least a cat is a dumb animal.. what's the so-called evolved human's excuse? Without a doubt, humans kill more birds through chemicals, loss of habitat, believe it or not, even having windows on buildings (tons of feathered lives are lost each year on that alone), and general nasty rubbish that humans inflict on wildlife.
But I guess that's too much to take on for the average cat hater.
Artjak, aww, bless her! Bet you sighed with relief too, no vets bills either!!
Not a bad idea! grins
Ooh, some seriously yummy sounding things on here! Last sat we pickled (just vinegar, water and sugar) 5 large jars of beetroot out the allotment. Was our first time but the better half and I had a good time, despite it looking like we'd killed something in the kitchen...
Another idea for runner beans - my mum used to make them with soy sauce when I was a kid - just fry onion, then stir in boiled, cooked runner beans and some soy sauce - as much or as little as you prefer. You can add bacon too. They are very yummy and the only way my partner doesn't mind eating them when they glut of runners arrives!

Skip to comments.Comedian on Bachmann: I would **** her angrily ( and Santorum target of homosexual rape wish)
Posted on 07/16/2011 1:32:22 PM PDT by kristinn
The era of civility was on full display during Friday nights Real Time with Bill Maher.
In the midst of a conversation about Michele Bachmann and her husband Marcus Bachmanns Christian counseling clinic (recently underfire for attempting to turn gays straight through prayer), comedian Marc Maron spoke about how he thinks about angrily ****ing the Republican presidential candidate.
I dont want to be crass, but I just hope that Marcus Bachmann takes all that, ya know, that rage that comes from repression and denial and brings it into the bedroom with her, Maron said. I hope he **** her angrily, because thats how I would. And Ive thought about it.
Just to ensure that observers could not charge the panel with sexism, columnist and gay-rights activist Dan Savage chimed in to say that he too would really like to do the same to another socially conservative presidential candidate, Rick Santorum.
Just so you dont get charged with sexism, because only Michele Bachmann was invo[lved] I sometimes think about ****ing the **** out of Rick Santorum, Savage said to cheers. Just cause I think he needs it. Its not just women we are talking about ****ing. Its like, lets bone that Santorum.
Id be up for whipping up some Santorum in Santorum, Savage added, referencing the vulgar neologism Savage himself concocted back in 2003.
52 second YouTube video.
Comments like these about Michelle and Barack Obama would rightly get a visit from the Secret Service and be universally condemned.
More evidence for "Demonic" nature of the fascist "libs" in this country.
Did he show a picture of her with crosshairs superimposed?
So according to this liberal dumb ass, all gays are rapists..kinda like when Sandra Bernhard(Another moron) said that she would get her "black homies" to gang rape Sarah Palin..so I guess according to Bernhard, all black guys are rapists..these liberal fools are obsessed with rape, makes ya wonder what kind of skeletons are in their closets, I mean victims
It might be the first maher ever got without having to pay for it...
Welcome to the world that Sarah Palin endured for the past 3 years.
You're precisely right that the Secret Service and the FBI would put a stop to this vile *free* speech were it aimed at the Marxist, even when he was running in the '08 election.
Double standards.
Why is that bastard Maher still on the air?
But that's different, you see. Saying something like that about a liberal is simply an act of pure right-wing hatred. And hatred, as we all know, is something that liberals are incapable of. For example, when someone tries to burn down Sarah Palin's church while women and children were inside, it wasn't out of hatred, but instead was an attack on hatred. Standards are always for the other guy.
Because there are people who pay him money who want to keep him on the air and saying this sort of thing. I don't know their names.
Looks like a clumsy walker.
Did mention of Sarah's church being burned make it into The Undefeated?
Pray for America
HBO used to have such better programming years ago. It`s just obscene trash now. So long as they have crap like they do, I`ll never subscribe to it.
ah yes... the left... dreaming of the days of forcible rape. so classy and enlightened.
strangely... the story of sodom popped into my mind while reading this
these people are just unhinged and should be required to seek counseling.
How pathetic of these low-rank liberal entertainers to think that bashing conservatives on TV guestings makes them 'cool' and endears them to the Hollywood A-listers.
I refuse to watch the video. Reading it was enough for me. This world has completely gone upside down, right is wrong, wrong is right.
I do not belong here. This is NOT my America.
libtards should wear a T-shirt that says I have the mentality of filthy scum on it.
Could you imagine the uproar if Rush Limbaugh said someone Kagan just needed a good ****, or that's he's thought about angrily ******** Hillary Clinton?
He's holding out for bill clinton's schlong.
I didn't watch the video either.
What a disgusting pit Maher is.
pig.......I meant PIG!
Marc Maron is about the most unfunny "comedian" out there. I didn't know he was still around. I saw his act in the 90s (probably on HBO) and it was all bashing republicans. Such a clever boy.
Whoa! you have some weird imagination. At least MB and RS are hot...kagen, not so much...let alone hill.
I'm pissed enough, as I'm sure you are (with little glimmerings of prayers perhaps answered).
Why tick ourselves off even more.
Pit works.
WEll we all know what happened to Rush on ESPN. We know there's a double standard in the LSM. My point is, if a conservative had made similar remarks about a famous liberal, all hell would break loose.
There was a time when voicing such thoughts would get you horsewhipped and confined to a loony bin. Now it gets you applause on prime time TV.
We need a serious housecleaning in America.
Amen. Satanic influence is the only explanation for the venomous hatred of the Left for Michelle Bachmann, Sarah Palin, and even George W. Bush.
They at least get it that they are repulsive, disgusting individuals and that it would be a really mean thing to make anyone spend "intimate" time with them. They are telling the world how insecure and SELF-loathing they are.
The knowledge that the people APPLAUDING this crap are walking the streets is disturbing...moving into the woods is becoming more appealing every passing minute...
p.s. I am just reading "Demonic" now and these creeps are setting themselves up as advertisments for Ann Coulter's book.
oh, good. for a minute there I thought you wanted in kagen's or hill's pants......whew. glad we cleared that up. ;^)
Oh dear God no!!!! Gerard Butler... yes, please!
I thought the ****ing stood for the F word not R word?
If R, then Maher is getting classier by the day. /s
nice.....just tell me underneath all that he is not a raving lib.
He's a Scot, so no clue. Liberal or not, exceptions made for me who wear kilts. ;)
He's a Scot, so no clue. Liberal or not, exceptions made for men who wear kilts. ;)

Not good for America. How did even get into the country? Our government is not defending us from invasion of a destructive species.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
Patriotupdate: U.S. Imam calls on Muslims in America to wage jihad!
The controversial Imam of a prominent mosque in Arlington, Virginia has urged immigrant Muslims in the U. S. to wage war in the name of Islam. Shaker Elsayed told a crowd of Ethiopian Muslims during a lecture at T. C. Williams High School in Alexandria, Virginia.
As I was saying earlier about Muslims and terrorism in America!
they comedown fro canaduh. picked detroit due to geographical reason and the fact nobody else wants it.
Glad you wrote this post. Was wondering where all the racist pigs were. You surely made them wake up.
capn' cornhole loves the muslims and what they will do to ameroka! all salute capn' corhnole!
Cornhole Kid
Cobra still cheating the Tax. I left the board for 4 hours so he would go to work. Oh well it didn't work.
Many Muslims through out the world use donkey carts for transportation. Their level of intelligence knows no bounds! The World has been Enriched by their Presence! Now pick out the correct statement.
As a born American, I would feel somewhat safer if Muslims living in America would reimmigrate back to their country of origin. Wouldn't you? Government is making a mistake to allow their immigration into the United States considering their level of hostility towards other religions. No one will be safe in America is Muslims become the majority! I'm tellin yeah, America will become a killing field of Christians if Muslims are allowed to become the majority! The world is already witnessing the extermination of Christians by the hand of Muslims in Third World Islamic Nations!
I won't rest until I see the back of Barack's head chiseled on the face of Mt. Rushmore! His ears will be the defining moment. "Oh Yes, Now that's President Obama!"
And we can paint them silver and use them for satellite dishes!
Sentiment: Strong Sell
Since our country is a democracy and we rule by majority vote, it is just a matter or time before 'Sharia Law' is put on the ballot and Sharia law is voted the law of Detroit, then Michigan, then the entire country.
I believe there may already be some secluded sections in MN and MI that already adhere to the muslim law.
any dang fool know that you have to go thru d-troit to get to party town usa! even a dang fool #$%$ knows dat! d-troit is all abouts gettin down! ya gots to get up to get down!
At least the Muslims will destroy the UAW
Sentiment: Buy
blame the liberals/lefties for being so P.C. and "tolerant"...
Sentiment: Buy
I don't think it's Detroit proper. You are probably referring to a community that is just west of the Detroit area.

Deep cuts, new revenues needed to balance budget, panel says
Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The co-chairmen of President Barack Obama's bipartisan deficit reduction commission on Wednesday offered a draft blueprint for wiping out trillions from projected deficits through 2020, signaling the start to a roiling season of political pain for lawmakers trying to stabilize the nation's finances.
The plan proposes major cuts in domestic and military spending, and would remake the tax code to boost revenues. Among the changes are higher payments for Medicare patients, increased gas taxes and the delay of full Social Security benefits until age 68.
Lawmakers and analysts alike instantly predicted that the battered Obama administration would have trouble pushing the plan through.
One labor leader said the report sent a message that working Americans should "drop dead," and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., called the proposal "simply unacceptable." Even a member of the commission, U.S. Rep. Janice D. Schakowsky, D-Ill., said the recommendations on Social Security amounted to a "nonstarter."
The White House took a cautious approach toward the early proposals. "The president will wait until the bipartisan fiscal commission finishes its work before commenting," White House spokesman Bill Burton said. "He respects the challenging task that the co-chairs and the commissioners are undertaking and wants to give them space to work on it."
But Obama is hoping that the commission's work ultimately will provide the basis of a bipartisan compromise that he can sign into law.
Coming off a midterm election season in which he was cast as a big-spending liberal, Obama has a chance to reposition himself politically by embracing a report that relies heavily on spending cuts. A key part of the message put forward by Republicans in their successful effort to retake the House was that government has grown too big. Obama could move to dampen that argument by adopting at least parts of the commission's deficit reduction plan as a major goal for 2011 and beyond.
The 18-member panel was created in February through an executive order signed by Obama. The proposals issued Wednesday were from the commission's co-chairmen, Erskine Bowles, a former chief of staff to former President Bill Clinton, and Alan Simpson, a former Republican senator from Wyoming. The proposals represent a range of choices for the panel members, who are due to submit a final report by Dec. 1.
Fourteen of the panel's 18 members must approve final recommendations. The Senate majority leader, Harry Reid, D-Nev., has said that if the commission meets its deadline, the Senate will take action on the proposal in December.
The commission vote is not binding, but could provide political cover for members of Congress, who would be voting on recommendations adopted with bipartisan support from a blue ribbon commission.
"There's enough pain in here that it will either send people running in all directions or bring them together for possible agreement," said Scott Hodge, president of the Tax Foundation, a non-partisan tax research group.
The sense among many of the commissioners was that the draft proposal needed to be provocative to trigger a national debate about the severity of the debt crisis.
"I ask the American people to take a look," Simpson said. "This is not the usual stuff. It's all out there. We have harpooned every whale in the ocean."
The plan calls for $200 billion in domestic and military spending cuts in 2015, a down payment on cuts that would reduce the deficit by nearly $4 trillion through 2020.
Spending and revenue would gradually come into alignment — at a level of 21 percent of the gross domestic product — through tough spending caps and an overhaul of the tax system.

AMD processors don't tend to perform as well as their Intel counterparts under the stresses of our WorldBench 6 test, but that's no reason to discount them. A carefully specced AMD system, such as the CyberPower AMD Pre-Build 2 Cores, can deliver very good value for money.
The dual-core Athlon X2 7850 CPU used here nudges just above the 100-point mark. This represents a significant performance loss compared to the fastest Intel-based systems in the group. When it comes to games, however, the CyberPower AMD Pre-Build 2 Cores excels.
The cost savings made by this choice of processor leave enough cash in the pot to add an ATI Radeon HD 4770 graphics card to the CyberPower AMD Pre-Build 2 Cores. This is a considerably faster graphics card than any other in this price band, delivering almost double the performance of the competition in our 'Very High' Crysis test.
A 4GB allocation of RAM and 320GB hard drive are standard fare at this price point, as is the CyberPower AMD Pre-Build 2 Cores' 19in monitor. The Hanton produced rather flat, muted colours, but its inclusion of a digital connection is pleasing.
The AMD Pre-Build 2 Cores' well-designed system case comes as a nice surprise, given that CyberPower usually bundles it with its pricier models. Its black mesh finish and subtle blue trim lends it a comparatively expensive appearance.
Inside, the Asus motherboard leaves little room for expansion. All memory slots are spoken for, while the graphics card and 500W Cooler Master power supply consume much of the CyberPower AMD Pre-Build 2 Cores' remaining space.

>> NEXT PAGE: Buying advice
Buying advice: Budget desktop PCs
Processor: Intel's Core 2 Duo E8500 is a popular choice at this price, although slower processors such as the E8400 will still be fast enough for most users. Lower-cost alternatives, such as the Intel E7000- and E4000-series chips, offer weaker performance at any clock speed.
Memory: In this Vista-shackled age, 2GB of RAM is essential. The majority of sub-£500 PCs are now fitted with 4GB.
Make sure you're getting the full benefit of the memory - some onboard graphics controllers use system memory, which will slow things down. Check your motherboard has free memory slots if you plan to upgrade later.
Storage: You can never have too much storage space. Digital media content will quickly fill a reasonably sized hard drive, so buy the biggest you can. Hard-drive space is relatively easy to add later.
If you're planning to upgrade hard drives internally, ensure that you've got spare drive bays inside your PC's case.
Look for a DVD drive that can write to the -R/+R formats at 16-speed or better. If you want to copy 8.5GB to one disc, get a drive that can write to DVD-R DL and +R DL at 12- and eight-speed respectively. Keep an eye out for 22-speed models.
Flat-panel: It's the component you'll be spending all your time looking at, but PC makers often compromise on the monitor.
All the PCs in our chart come with flat-panels. The most common size is 19in - the quality of larger monitors is unlikely to be good at this price. Look for a monitor with a DVI or HDMI digital connector to ensure the best picture quality. Make sure the PC has one, too.
If display size or quality is of critical importance to you, you may be able to get a 22in 1,080p flat-panel if you're willing to cut costs elsewhere.
Graphics card: With the best graphics cards retailing for more than £300, a sub-£500 PC is unlikely to satisfy a hardcore gamer. You'll want a PC that can produce at least 50fps for gaming.
ATI does well in this price bracket and, thanks to recent price reductions, we're seeing Radeon HD 4670 cards appearing once again where the cheaper HD 4650 had temporarily taken over.
For nVidia and ATI cards, always look for a 1GB rather than 512MB version if possible. If you don't play games at all, consider purchasing a machine that relies on the integrated graphics of its motherboard - you'll save a packet.
Power supply: Expect only a basic PSU at this price point. Without power-hungry components under the bonnet, there's simply no need for a more powerful supply. If you plan to upgrade your system - and in particular the graphics card - then you'll need to ensure that your PSU is able to deliver enough juice to power your new components. A 450W or 500W model is a good starting point.
Sound card and speakers: You're unlikely to get a standalone sound card at this price point. Most motherboards have built-in chips that can handle six-channel sound. To get the best out of them, you'll need a 5.1-channel system (five speakers and a subwoofer). Separate stereo speakers are rare in systems costing less than £500, however. Prepare to make sacrifices elsewhere if getting standalone speakers is a requirement for you.

- WorldBench 6 score: 105
- 2.8GHz AMD Athlon X2 7850
- Windows Vista Home Basic 32bit
- Asus M9A2VM-F 780V
- 6 x USB 2.0
- 500W Cooler Master PSU

- three-year return-to-base warranty
- WorldBench 6 score: 105
Gamers should place this excellent budget PC at or near the top of their list. With a full three-year warranty to fall back on, the only real drawback to the AMD Pre-Build 2 Cores is CyberPower's decision to use Vista Home Basic.

More Elite Chess: Russian Club Championships Underway in Sochi; Ding Liren vs. So Starts Wednesday
The Russian Club Championship started on Sunday, May 1 and continues through May 10. Among the heavy hitters who have played so far there's Sergey Karjakin, Alexander Grischuk, Peter Svidler - to include only the players over 2750 - and Vladimir Kramnik is supposed to jump in at some point as well.
On Wednesday, Ding Liren and Wesley So will begin a four-game match in China. (Or maybe there will be four classical games and some additional rapid and/or blitz games. All I know thus far is the very little given in the "Future Events" section of this page. Further details would be appreciated.)

A salon might not seem like a typical destination for a tour bus. Nevertheless, the Old Towne Trolley makes a stop at Salon Roi, where a well-known mural of Marilyn Monroe decorates the upper levels of the restored, four-story historic townhouse. Created by the artist John Bailey in 1980 for Mr. Roi Barnard's 40th birthday, the Marilyn Monroe mural has since become an unexpected Washington landmark, and has been reproduced on postcards, T-shirts, calendars, and vice president Biden's favorite jean jacket. More Marilyn memorabilia decorates the rest of the unisex salon and spa, where expert stylists pamper guests with haircare, facials, massages, and other spa services.

SANTA ANA, Calif. (AP) -- The murder trial of two California women charged with kicking another woman to death in a brawl outside a popular nightclub began Wednesday with both sides showing the jury cellphone footage of the melee.
The blurry, seconds-long videos are expected to be critical evidence used by both prosecutors and defense in the trial of Vanesa Zavala, 26, and Candace Brito, 27, who were arrested in the death of newlywed and aspiring writer Annie Hung Kim Pham.
Pham, 23, died after being taken off life support several days after the attack, which occurred in the early hours of Jan. 18 outside The Crosby, a trendy bar in downtown Santa Ana.
Defense attorneys for the two women told jurors in opening statements that their clients' actions that night were in self-defense.
"You're allowed to hit a person back when they hit you. It's as simple as that," said Zavala's lawyer, Kenneth Reed, according to the Orange County Register (http://bit.ly/1k6S2gt ).
Both women have pleaded not guilty to murder and to a related count of assault.
Prosecutor Troy Pino said, however, that while Pham might have thrown the first punch, it didn't excuse the blows to the head that she received as the confrontation escalated _ particularly when she was on the ground, struggling.
Pino conceded that the video might be difficult to follow, but that eyewitnesses he will call to testify can fill in the gaps, proving Brito and Zavala's guilt.
At the preliminary hearing earlier this year, witnesses testified that Pham and her group of 11 friends were waiting in line to get into the club as Brito, Zavala and several of their friends were exiting.
At some point, the groups bumped into each other.
One witness told authorities that Pham started swearing and threw the first punch. But Pham's friends told police the three women in the other group attacked Pham without provocation after they bumped into her.
Zavala told police that Pham's first swing hit her and the fight began.
Defense attorneys have repeatedly indicated that Pham's friends might have minimized her role in the fight and their own involvement.
A forensic pathologist who conducted Pham's autopsy ruled the cause of death was blunt force injury to the head but said it was impossible to tell whether one specific blow caused the fatal brain bleeding or if it came from a combination of blows.
Pham, who went by the first name Kim, graduated from Chapman University last year and would have celebrated her first wedding anniversary earlier this year.
She was an aspiring writer whose work was published online and in an anthology of works by Vietnamese-American writers.
