Disgraced cyclist Lance Armstrong has not only spent years vehemently denying using banned performance-enhancing drugs; he also has viciously attacked those who told what they knew about doping in the sport and implicated him in the process.
In what could now be seen as supreme hypocrisy -- or a new definition of "chutzpah" -- Armstrong even sued agencies that accused him of doping -- in some cases accusing those agencies of libel.
Here is a look back at a dozen quotes that highlight how far -- or, some say, how low -- Armstrong has been willing to go.
"Desperate for attention and money"
Fellow cyclist Floyd Landis was stripped of his 2006 Tour de France title after testing positive for synthetic testosterone. He ultimately came forward and spoke about other cyclists, saying he wanted to "clear my conscience."
"Armstrong and his camp hit back swiftly, forcefully and with a smooth coordination that comes from years of practice," Sports Illustrated reported.
Last year, in a lawsuit calling for the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency to drop charges against Armstrong, Armstrong's attorneys described Landis as "desperate for attention and money." Landis was acting against Armstrong "with his cycling career, finances, and personal life in shambles," the attorneys argued.
There has long been no love lost between the two men. Sports Illustrated reported in 2010 that Landis predicted Armstrong "is going to jail."
"I'm going to make your life a living... f---ing ... hell," Armstrong allegedly said
Another former fellow cyclist-turned-enemy, Tyler Hamilton, cooperated with federal authorities and testified about Armstrong. He also spoke with CBS' "60 Minutes." Soon after, Armstrong and Hamilton bumped into each other at a restaurant in Aspen, Colo.
Precisely what happened is disputed. Hamilton said that as he was leaving the bathroom, Armstrong blocked his path. "He wanted to get into it," Hamilton later told Outside Online.
A USADA report in October contains quotes from Hamilton's testimony, including an allegation that Armstrong, at the restaurant, said to him, "I'm going to make your life a living... f---ing ... hell."
Armstrong has said he asked Hamilton "what's up" and that the encounter "was certainly awkward for both of us. It was truly uneventful."
"Obsession" with "getting" me
Armstrong has accused Travis Tygart, head of USADA of carrying out an "unconstitutional witch hunt."
The lawsuit Armstrong's camp filed last year against USADA named Tygart personally as a defendant, saying he had "a well-publicized obsession with 'getting' Mr. Armstrong. Defendant Tygart evidently believes that USADA needs to bring a big case against a 'big fish' to justify its existence."
In a recent interview with CBS' "60 Minutes," Tygart alleged Armstrong was personally involved in intimidating other riders into keeping quiet about doping.
Tygart also said he personally received anonymous threats. He did not say those threats came from Armstrong. They came as e-mails and letters, Tygart said. The worst was a threat to put "a bullet in my head."
"You know enough to bring me down," Armstrong allegedly told masseuse

Benefits and Drawbakcs of Faxless Payday Loan
Nowadays many individuals access a faxless payday loan for meeting urgent financial expenses. This quick loan facility offers loans of smaller denominations for a short time period. Since the requirements to obtain loans are minimal more and more people turn to these quick loans in times of financial emergencies. Some people favor the use of this loan facility while others criticize these loans.
Pay day loans are favored on grounds of quick availability of finance within a day's time. Unlike conventional lending facilities there is no need for borrowers to wait for days or months before their loans are approved. Borrowers can get instant cash within hours if their loan application is approved by the pay day lender. After filling an online application form the borrower has to wait for lender's approval. Usually money is transferred in the checking account of the borrower as soon as his loan application is approved.
The whole process of lending is completed on the World Wide Web. There are no physical meetings between the borrower and the lender. As a result a lot of time is saved which can be life saver in times of emergencies such as urgent hospitalization of your loved ones.
Moreover the borrower is not required to validate his credit score which is usually the case with a traditional lending facility. Similarly lenders of a faxless payday loan offer money without requiring any security or collateral. As a result even poor people with bad credit are able to access quick finance through this loan facility. Check this out
However fast cash loans are criticized due to hefty rates of interest and late payment charges. The rate of interest on instant loans is very high compared to banks and other conventional lending sources. Moreover the borrower has to bear late payment fines and penalties if he fails to repay the loan on time. Additionally he is required to repay the loan within 15 to 20 days time.
Despite the drawbacks more and more people turn to payday loans in times of financial emergencies to get quick cash and resolve their problems. Moreover getting an economical deal with better terms is certainly possible by shopping around. There are literally hundreds of payday lenders online that render quick cash. As a result you get a chance to compare loan deals offered by numerous lenders which help you to pick the best deal.
Obtain detailed quotation from multiple direct payday loan lenders to choose the best lender. Read their lending agreement minutely and identify any unclear clause to avoid any kind of problem later. Similarly look for hidden charges and other fees that will add up to the loan. Now compare the rates of interest as well as lending terms of each lender to get the best deal. Finally settle with the lender who renders a cost effective deal with lenient repayment terms. If utilized carefully and repaid on time a faxless payday loan can solve most of your urgent financial obligations of smaller denominations between two pay days.

A nice mix of my most mellow music usually does the trick. Some Buble, Robin Thicke, Adele, Belle & Sebastian, Duffy, A Fine Frenzy, and definitely The Appleseed Cast's album Two Conversations. And if the lyrics get in the way of sleeping my classical music mix is my go-to playlist.
I can listen to most things to kick-start my slumber, but if it's too catchy I have the tendency of doing some weird dance move while remaining in bed or accidentally belting out the lyrics. Let's face it any type of movement will keep you up and belting out things in a quiet place causes others to wake up and tell you to shut the f%&$ up! If I remember correctly, the statement is preceded by a pillow to the face.
However, there are days where not even music can calm my insane mind. What can I say it doesn't come with an emergency brake or any type of off button. Until I find a cure for shutting cognitive thinking down, my favorite melodies shall be the best remedy.

Congrats and welcome! You will love the car!
HI all.. just joined myself after taking delivery on a 2013 Sterling Gray V6 Premium Coupe and loving every minute of it! Back in the '70s, I had the pleasure of cruising in a '75 Mach I and like a 21 year old dummy.. traded it in for some car I don't even remember.
Not much of a Gear head and don't plan on doing too much to this beauty I now plan on owning until my dying days, but I figured being a part of MCA was a passage I deserved and look forward to meeting others and doing some pony drives and such.
Congrats and welcome! You will love the car!

Two men are indicted for capital murder in connection with the September 1 shooting death of a Port Arthur businessman.
The Jefferson County Grand Jury handed up indictments against Darren Oliver Jr, 18, and Brandon Dinh Tran, 18, of Port Arthur, charging them with the murder of Nikki's Lounge owner Hieu Huynh, 62.
Police say Oliver and Tran approached Huynh and his wife as he was closing the lounge. Officers say either Oliver or Tran pulled out a gun and Huynh and his wife tried to run away.
Police say Huynh was shot in the lower ribcage as he was running. Huynh collapsed after being shot. This is when officers say one of the men walked up and shot him again, this time in the back of the head.
Investigators say Oliver and Tran then robbed Mr. Huynh of cash and jewelry.
Huynh's wife was not injured in the robbery.
Oliver was arrested the day of the shooting. Police say Tran fled the scene, sparking a manhunt.
Tran was later arrested when officers found him hiding in a room at the Driftwood Inn on Memorial Boulevard on September 13.
Jefferson County Assistant District Attorney Ramon Rodriguez tells 12News HD the case has been assigned to the 252nd District Court.
Both defendants have an initial setting before the Judge set for October 22.
Mr. Tran has hired an attorney from Houston. Mr. Oliver has hired local attorney Doug Barlow.

We've seen this before, it is important to clean off glue immediately (theQ:
I saw on previous answer that you do not recommend a 5" wide plank over concrete on an install in a basement. The moderator indicated that the 5" plank was not stable enough over concrete but did not state how wide the plank should be. So the question is: how wide of a plank would you recommend on an install over concrete that is slightly below grade?1 answer
The previous answer to this particular question is incorrect, engineered products are designed for below grade installations.Q:
Can the Bellawood be installed over hard wood flooring?1 answer
Thank you for writing in! I would be glad to help you with your questions.Q:
What does the term "engineered" mean ?1 answer
Engineered hardwood is constructed with layers of hardwood veneer, glued and heat pressed together to create a product that can range in thickness from 5/16" up to 9/16", having 3 to 8 plys. The top veneer can range in thickness up to 1/4", depending on the manufacturer. In order to create an engineered hardwood, these plys or layers are stacked on top of each other with each layer or grain of the wood facing perpendicular to each other. Once the desired thickness is achieved, the boards are then cut into the correct board width. From there, the boards are then manufactured to have a tongue or groove on the edges. The final step is to add stain and finish. By design, engineered hardwood becomes less susceptible to the effects of moisture and temperature fluctuations. Therefore, engineered hardwood is referred to as being dimensionally stable. Solid hardwood is not as efficient in dimensional stability because the grain throughout the board runs in only one direction. The positive stability of engineered hardwood allows it to be glued directly to concrete above or below grade and is also perfect for radiant heat applications, moisture barriers over concrete is always recommended.

At 128 gigabytes, this iPad can store hundreds of photos, hours of music and videos. That's twice the largest capacity of current iPads, 64 gigabytes. Like its predecessors the new iPad, with 9.7-inch Retina display, comes in Wi-Fi ($799) and Wi-Fi plus 4G LTE data -speed versions ($929.) That's $100 more than each version of the 64 GB iPad with Retina display.
Quickly Replacing Notebooks
The new iPad goes on sale in stores and online next Tuesday, in black or white.
The announcement comes ahead of the Mobile World Congress and a day before Research In Motion unveils its updated platform for smartphones and tablets, BlackBerry 10. Apple still rules the tablet market it created with the iPad, but faces an onslaught of challengers from Samsung, Amazon, Google, Microsoft and others.
"This is aimed at business users of the iPad, not consumers who want to store more movies," consumer devices expert Avi Greengart of Current Analysis told us.
"It is not the most common use case today, but it is clear that the iPad is being used as a notebook replacement for a growing segment of the market." Doubling the storage capacity for productivity software users makes sense, he said. "Nobody thinks 128 GB is excessive on a laptop , even with the prevalence of cloud storage."
In its press release Tuesday announcing the new iPad, Apple noted its usefulness not only for storing books, TV shows, movies and apps, but also presentations and documents.
"iPad continues to have a significant impact on business, with virtually all of the Fortune 500 and over 85 percent of the Global 500 currently deploying or testing iPad," said Philip Schiller, Apple's senior vice president of Worldwide Marketing. "Companies regularly utilizing large amounts of data such as 3D CAD files, X-rays, film edits, music tracks, project blueprints, training videos and service manuals all benefit from having a greater choice of storage options for iPad."

Ruth's Chris Steak House - Columbus
Online Reservations
Great food and very good service. Noise was a little loud but this is by far the best food in town.
My husband and I were celebrating our anniversary. The entire staff was so nice wishing us happy anniversary. This included the mitre de, the manager, our busboy and especially our server Shannon. The food was exceptional with even the strip able to be cut with a fork. My filet Oscar was wonderful. There were rose petals on the table and a complimentary dessert with candle to finish off the meal.
The steaks were the best that I have ever had, we were treated like royalty right down to the rose petals on the table, it was our 43 wedding anniversary, and yes the complimentary dessert was superb .
Our family enjoyed very good steaks, excellent sides fantastic desserts and superior service. Ruth's prices are a bit steep for us to make this a habit, but for a special occasion, the overall dining experience was excellent!
We drove from Cleveland to meet our son for Easter Sunday dinner. Being a late arrangement, we were glad to find Open Table still had some place settings at this restaurant. Excellent service, the servers were all super friendly. We were not rushed, so our family visit time was not cut short.
Shannon has been our waitress a couple of times recently and she is the best! I was thrilled when they ask me if I would like a Makers Mark Manhatten--my favorite drink! Still wondering how they knew that! My mom and I split dinner, as we are not large eaters. Some restuarnats frown on "sharing" but Ruth Chris's was delightful! Always expensive but worth a celebration for a special occasion.
Ruth's Chris is always a great place to celebrate an event such as a birthday. The steaks are great and the staff is friendly and welcoming!
It was my male friend's birthday so I wanted to treat him to something special. This place was beyond great!!! The service was super, and everyone was so friendly, the food was so good...words can't explain. The food is pricey but its so worth it. I would definitely go back (on a good pay day). The strawberry chocolate cheesecake was to die for. We even order chocolate martinis and it was the strongest drink i've ever had at a restaurant. Overall I give this place a 15 out of 10...
Although the food was very good we found that our memories of Ruths Chris were somewhat distorted (it's been 8 years or so). Steaks are still served on extremely hot plates to keep them nice and warm, but the steaks themselves left something to be desired. Both my wife's filet mignon and my porterhouse were surprisingly grisly. There was also a lack of any really good flavor to them. We've been taking date nights to nice steakhouses around Columbus each month and sadly Ruth's Chris didn't even line up with places like J. Alexanders. We simply expected more from a place of this caliber. Although still nice, we won't be returning to Ruths Chris anytime soon.
Spicy Lobster is great! Please keep on Menu. Also had Sazerac cocktails better than New Orleans Only complaint is bring back the Banana Pie
We've been to this restaurant a number of times and generally have thought highly of the experience. This time didn't disappoint - the overall experience was very good. I decided to try the sea bass this visit, which turned out to be a bit of a mistake. Wasn't terrible, but not great...much more "fishy" tasting than I'm used to with sea bass. I guess when you go to a steak house, you should stay with steak! As noted, we would recommend and will, in all likelihood, return to this restaurant. Overall, a very nice place for special occasion dinners!
This is the most amazing restaurant we've ever eaten in. Everything was perfect!
My family & I were looking for somewhere that we had never been to take the MOM in our life, for Mothers Day. Glad we chose Ruth Chris; the service was great, food was great, everything was GREAT! The manager even came around to check how our meal was once we finished..gave our Mom a long stem rose, as well as an additional gift (a nice gesture for the occasion, and made her feel more special) I definetly recommend Ruth Chris, and will be going back!
This is our favorite upscale restaurant. We celebrated our marriage with dinner here and it is now a tradition for every anniversary. The filet mignon is the perfect...melts in your mouth. We like the side servings made for sharing with your dinner partner. The ambience is outstanding; enjoy the quietness. The wait staff is second to none. We highly recommend Ruth's Chris to all our friends.
The Ahi tuna and lobster stuffed mushrooms appetizers were incredible as were the sweet potato casserole and broccoli au gratin sides. We went with the filet mignon to hilight their incredible beef and it was even better than our already high expectations. Very simple preparation and presentation on a 500 degree plate still simmering in melted butter and cooked exactly to our specifications. We finished it off with some coffee and berries in sweet cream and creme brulee while we polished off our bottle of wine and were absolutely stuffed. Personally we were more excited about the creme brulee than the berries in sweet cream but the sweet cream was deliciously light and refreshing. The perfect end to the perfect full dining experience.
We celebrated some notable family events; our waiter, James, remembered us from a prior visit and did all he could to ensure our dining experience was superb. Great food, great service, great time.
I only can say excellent food and personalized service. My kind of place with lost of ambiance and friendly, knowledgable staff. Love the bar! Steaks are fantastic. Will always come back when I'm in town!
My experience was awesome. This was my second visit but a different state and the visit was phenomenal. The food is unbelievable and the service was great. Everything from the salad to the dessert was outta this world. I don't know how they do it but I love it.
Our previous visit to this restaurant was about 8 years ago. Vowed not to come back because the steaks were very sub-standard for this type of restaurant. Finally, had someone say all was changed and guess what... the food was outstanding!! We tried steaks, seafood, soup, salad... the works. The only drawback was the service. After we were seated, right on time as there were only 4 tables full in our room, our drinks were ordered. About 20 minutes later we had to remind our waiter about our drinks. His reply was, "and would you like to order now?" We stated."first things first" and he then retrieved our drinks. The saving grace from there was the outstanding food, as the service went downhill from there.
Ruth's Chris has a reputation of being a wonderful steakhouse with impeccable service. This location lives up to that reputation. We always have a great experience from the moment we walk into the restaurant. Our waitress Jess was marvelous! We started off with our usual Spicy Lobster and Calamari or which are delicious. We all had steaks or which are delious and perfectly prepared to each of our individual liking. The meat was tender and delicious. Everything is served a la carte, although they do have a couple of complete meal options. Side dishes are very large and will feed multiple guests. Our favorite dessert is the bread pudding, worth sharing.
Because of the wonderful experiences I have always had with Ruth's Chris I chose to celebrate my son's 21st birthday with them and they did not disappoint. The food was absolute perfection. My son orders his steaks well done and we always have to send them back....not this time. The server was very nice & professional but not as attentive as I have had in the past. I loved that they decorated the table for my son and that other staff members came by to wish him a happy birthday. The occasion was definitely made memorable by Ruth's Chris!
Celebrated our anniversary with our best friends - it was also their anniversary! Our meals were great! Service was outstanding! We will be back again soon!
We had the opportunity to take family members to Ruth's Chris in Columbus. The whole meal was wonderful, from the salads to the desserts. The steaks as always, were cooked to perfection. The sides were large and delicious. The staff was marvelous. Our server, Carrie, did an excellent job. We always leave happy and full.
My wife and I really enjoyed our recent visit. We were promptly greeted and seated in a cozy booth in the dining room. We enjoyed a fresh salad, a succulent petite filet and an awesome fresh fruit and crème dessert served in a delicate chocolate shell! The food, service and overall dining experience could not have been better. I highly recommend this restaurant.
This was me and my wife's fifty one (51) wedding anniversary, and the atmosphere, menu and friendliness of the staff provided a most impactful and intimate evening. Thank you for your superb service!
Not typically a steak eater but the steaks here melt in your mouth.
I took my husband here for his birthday as he enjoys good steaks. The dinner was wonderful! The table top was decorated. Wait staff and manager stopped by to wish him a good birthday. It was all very nice. I had one of their special cocktails, blueberry mojito. It was amazing. All in all a very successful birthday dinner.
I truly enjoyed myself as did my mother and my wife since it was her birthday. The only thing I wish were better is the attire worn by some of the other patrons. I wish everyone would respect an establishment of fine dining and dress appropriately. Maybe I'm old fashioned but when I go out to have a dinner as wonderful as the one I had on this occasion, I feel it proper to dress nicely. The food was amazing, the service was wonderful, and the restaurant is perfect for a memorable night out.
I made a dinner reservation for my family after an Ohio State football game. We showed up in Buckeye jerseys and checked to make sure we weren't violating a strict dress code. The host and the bartender made very clear that, as long as we weren't wearing Michigan jerseys, we were very welcome! We realized that other diners were casual too. The food and service was excellent. Definitely consistent and reliable as other Ruth's Chris restaurants I've been to.
I just love Ruth's Chris. I have never had a bad meal. We consistently have the same server James and he always does a fabulous job. The steaks are always cooked perfectly and the hot butter sizzle just can't be beat. I recommend Ruth's Chris to everyone!! We will keep going back!
You can count on great food and service every time at Ruth's Chris. This was our 1st visit to this location outside of Columbus , Ohio and it is a memorable one. Filet and lamb chops were cooked to perfection. All sides were delicious. When the kids wanted a little more "taste" on the Broccoli , the staff very willingly Buttered-up the dish and the kids were very happy. Staff was knowledgeable of not only the food but also the local area and history. Highly recommend - you will have a great experience
Our latest visit to Ruth's Chris of Columbus was absolutely wonderful! We were greeted at the door by the manager, Andy, who promptly seated us at our favorite table in the bar. Josh, the bar tender, welcomed us back warmly and then proceeded to show us several bottles of wine he had selected for us to consider, and gave us the qualities of each wine. We chose a bottle of Newton The Puzzle, which was perfect with the delicious rib eyes we each ordered. Our side dishes were tasty. I especially enjoyed the macaroni and cheese, which has recently been added to the menu. Our fine meal was topped off by scrumptious desserts. It was a perfect evening, thanks to the outstanding staff.
From beginning to end, the experience was as we had hoped. Food, as always, was outstanding. Servers and staff were all very professional and attentive. For an over the top dining experience, my husband and I would highly recommend Ruth's Chris!
As usual R/C didn't disappoint. We were dining in celebration of our anniversary and the food was great, we ordered off the fixed price menu allowing us to get 2 personal sides as well as dessert, salads and a main entree. The mac and cheese was amazing!
We had the steak for two. It was awesome. You could smell the steak before it reached your table! The service was amazing. It was not as expensive as we thought, and it was worth every penny. We will definitely be back.
I am a favorite of Ruth's Chris - This was my first trip to the Columbus location, but have dined at others across the country. Consistently excellent food brings me back, as does the always impeccable, friendly, attentive service. My husband and I are big fans of the lamb chops (steak is always fabulous but we LOVE the lamb chops) - as are the salads. I had the beefsteak tomato salad, my husband had the Caesar, both were extremely fresh, well portioned, and delicious. The lamb chops were extremely savory and prepared exactly as we asked. I brought my 2-year old along, and the restaurant was very accommodating to him - they offer both high chairs and booster seats. Overall, if you love good food, you won't be disappointed by Ruth's Chris.
I wrote a note for my reservation "to celebrate my husbands birthday". I forgot about it until we were seated, balloon confetti on our table, and they surprised us with a special dessert! The food was amazing, staff and service great, upscale but not snooty! Worth every penny,
We love to go to Ruth's Chris, the service is excellent and we feel like royalty! The menu is excellent and we Love it there! Wish we could go more often!
Overall, this was a great experience and I would recommend it and I will likely go back. I am a pretty tough critic, so when I give 4 stars that means it is very very good across the board. There are 2 notes that I will add. First, the wine is over priced. The lower priced wines run $10 - $12 per glass, and the offerings at the price point did not justify that cost. I did not appreciate that. Second, I would comment on the service. The service itself was very good. I would only suggest that it could have been a bit more polished; a little more professional.
Although we only done at Ruth's Chris a few times a year, everything is always perfect. The manager stopped by our table to see how everything was and we ended up talking with him for about 5-10 minutes. Super nice guy and very personable. We will definitely be back!
Joshua was our server for the evening. Everything was absolutely perfect. When dining at a restaurant such as this, you get what you pay for, which includes top notch food, unbelievable service, and an experience to remember.
The sizzling steaks are to die for and the desserts are rich and indulgent. Can't go wrong with this restaurant.
Jon was our server and he was perfect. Food was amazing! They even sent you home with complimentary left-overs! All the staff that touched our table were great. The manager never made it to our table....so let it be known to him that his staff made up for that! Already made a reservation for Christmas Day! Glasses up wine are hiked up too high.....but It was a holiday, so why not splurge!
Tried this place twice in the last two weeks. The steaks are very well prepared, and the sides are good. Yes, it's expensive, but excellent for a special occasion or treat.
Phenomenal dining experience. Served in formal course style, meaning each course at a time. Allowed for us to enjoy each course and never felt rushed. Service was on par. Food was delectable.

Outsourcing Your Needs - So you live in a sexless marriage. There is no sex (or very little sex) and your relationship lacks intimacy and emotional connection. As a "sex person" you miss this badly and have tried, without success, to address the issue in your marriage.

It sucks. I try, but there's little there. I struggle finding any attraction to my wife, which is only worsened by a case of ED at a relatively young age. To be quite candid, she can be pleasured, but I can't. How's that for breaking stereotypes?
