by Title by Author by ISBN
When it comes to liberalism, the usual story in postwar America is one of decline, accompanied by the subplot of conservatism's ascendance. But take a longer view—look beyond and below politics—and it is the unchallenged triumph of liberalism and its philosophical assumptions that ought to command our attention.
The triumph of liberalism means the tyranny of liberalism, explains James Kalb in this illuminating book, for liberalism is the extension into the sociopolitical realm of modern scientific thought and technological rationality. These modes of thinking are regarded by nearly everyone today as uniquely authoritative; those institutions and beliefs which do not conform are regarded at best as annoyances, and at worst as evil. Furthermore, Kalb shows how liberalism is an expression of the interests and outlook of commercial and managerial elites, who are suspicious of less rationalized and controllable forms of social organization like the family.
"The title of this book may seem oxymoronic, which testifies to how completely the regime of freedom and equality that liberalism claims to be has triumphed over other sociopolitical ideas. . . . Without any specialist jargon, reams of statistics, or heavy-handed anecdotes, Kalb makes us see how all the ills of liberalism logically proceed from its deliberate philosophical poverty. Preparatory to liberalism's demise, he suggests adopting a traditionalist outlook and resuming the loyalties and the functions liberal hegemony has tried so hard to suppress and usurp."— Ray Olson Booklist
"James Kalb's investigation of the increasingly oppressive character of liberalism is a conceptually rich and ingeniously argued study going back to the beginnings of the liberal worldview. The author is relentless in working to uncover the invitation to tyranny that has always been inherent in the "philosophy of freedom." Kalb tries to remove any doubt that the social engineering and wars against thought crimes that are characteristic of current liberal political practice have a long pedigree. These practices flow from what liberalism has always been, as a justification for liberating individuals from traditional social bonds and for valorizing individual choice and self-expression."— Paul Gottfried Raffensperger Chair Department of Political Science Elizabethtown College
"This work is a source of consolation for anyone who has had to endure the interference of managerial elites and technocrats undermining their creativity and standards of excellence. It shows that liberalism really is the ideology of a particular class and also a kind of class religion. Like Alasdair MacIntyre, Kalb draws attention to the way in which liberalism operates to conceal what it does. He demonstrates that advanced liberalism is intolerant in somewhat the same way the Taliban are intolerant."— Tracy Rowland Dean The John Paul II Institute, Melbourne, Australia
"The Tyranny of Liberalism is an outstanding contribution to political philosophy. Readers who recoil from the arid wastes of Rawls will find Kalb a welcome and instructive relief. But he is no head-in-the-clouds philosopher. He has a sharp sense of current political realities. . . . Those in search of a revitalized American conservatism will find The Tyranny of Liberalism essential reading."— David Gordon The American Conservative
"Liberalism seems to be riding high; and, truth be told, it never really went away. Some . . . may wonder, 'What is the problem with liberalism anyway?' A new book aspires to analyze and anser this question. In The Tyranny of Liberalism: Understanding and Overcoming Administered Freedom, Inquisitorial Tolerance, and Equality by Command James Kalb, a lawyer and scholar . . . , shows that modern liberalism, despite the term's etymology and the lofty ideals it exudes, is hardly the liberating system it claims to be."— Jeff McAlister The News Journal, Longview, TX
"Liberals—:on both the Right and Left—may posit that they favor freedom, reason, and the well-being of ordinary people. But some critics believe that liberalism itself erodes the very institutions . . . necessary to restrain its excesses. . . . One such liberal skeptic is attorney and writer James Kalb. . . . He believes liberalism inevitably evolves into a form of soft totalitarianism, or a 'dictatorship of relativism,' and why the Church is well positioned to be its preeminent foe."— Annamarie Adkins Zenit
"There is no shortage of treatises against liberalism, but James Kalb's new book is distinguished by remarkable comprehensiveness and a refreshing freedom from rancor. It is an excellent resource for those new to this debate, and those steeped in it will commend Kalb's clarity and may even find something to learn from or profitably argue with."— Stefen McDaniel First Things
"The roots, reach, and results of liberalism are inspected with consummate precision in James Kalb's The Tyranny of Liberalism. . . . His clarifying, commanding work warns of the growing darkness . . . and presents bottom-up solutions for the restoration of a noble, humane society."— Mary McWay Seaman The New Oxford Review
"Perhaps the highest praise I can give The Tyranny of Liberalism, is that it is Kirkian. It is filled with frank and illuminating criticism, and it rests solidly on a cogently expressed and cohesively articulated system of principles. . . . It is the work of an imaginative conservative who offers frank criticism and expresses the truth about authentic values and the permanent things with notable clarity, unusual insight, and welcome eloquence."— The Catholic World Report
Interview with James Kalb, author of The Tyranny of Liberalism
What's this book about?
Liberalism and what to do about it.
What's the message?
Liberalism has won overwhelmingly. It dominates all public discussion and all respectable institutions. Rejecting liberalism today is rejecting what counts as rationality and moral decency. There seems to be no place else to go. That means that conservatism has no idea what it is or what to do. It also means that liberalism—which is basically oppositional—has run through its possibilities.
Sounds a bit like the end of history. What's the problem?
The problem is that liberalism taken straight doesn't work and destroys what does work. It's not possible to maintain social order if you make freedom and equality the highest principles. Their demands increase without limit and they wipe out other things that are needed for a tolerable or even minimally functional way of life. The more dominant liberalism becomes the less possible it is to mitigate the consequences of its basic contradictions. The only serious political question today is how to get beyond it. We all have to rethink, and this book is intended to advance the process.
What do you mean by liberalism? Conservatism?
Liberalism is the belief that equal satisfaction of preferences is the highest social good, and the purpose of politics and morality is converting the world into a sort of machine that brings about that good. Conservatism is resistance to that view for the sake of other goods traditionally recognized:—God, country, family, traditional social relations and morality. Modern thought has no good way to make sense of those goods so insisting on them has come to seem irrational, obstinate, retrograde, and probably malicious.
If liberalism goes, what replaces it?
Recognition that government can't be based directly on clear concepts that apply always and everywhere. Acceptance that people differ in ways that matter and choices must be made. Recognition that some particular understanding of the nature of man and the good life is basic to every social and political order.
And that means ...
Recognition that choices must be made means abandonment of freedom and equality as supreme principles. Acceptance of diversity means decentralization, local initiatives, and fewer attempts to do away with discrimination. Downplaying clear universal concepts means reliance on prudence, established practice, particular negotiated settlements, and general principles we don't fully grasp. And recognition that government is always based on a particular concept of the good means recognizing that government can't be neutral on basic moral and religious issues.
So you reject freedom, equality and tolerance?
No. They're often very good things. Where they work and people like them people should have them. The point is that they can't be supreme principles. Freedom only makes sense, for example, when you know what it's for. That requires some idea of what's good in human life.
How about justice and reason?
Justice and reason aren't found pure. They always have a setting. If you try to make them abstract and content-free, so they're equally acceptable to everyone no matter what his outlook and way of life, they go mad. We need tradition to know what things are and what they mean, so that we can reason about them and deal with them justly.
What's special about this book?
It ignores partisan disputes and deals with basic issues like tradition and scientism and the nature of knowledge and reason. It takes liberalism seriously and asks what it is, why it's so powerful, and what's really wrong with it. And it's willing to reject liberal pieties fundamentally.

Florida Lawn Care for Bradenton, FL Lawns
Weed control for your Bradenton yard is a complicated job. Your lawn is under constant stress trying to survive in an often hostile environment including heat, humidity, weeds, salt intrusion, poor water retention, invading insects, fungus and other pathogens just to name a few. In Florida, our tropical climate makes caring for your lawn a fulltime job.
What insects are eating your lawn?
It is important to only apply pesticide applications when insects are present in high numbers and to reduce use when they are not. Although preventive measures should be taken for some types of insects, broad application of pesticides when insects aren't present can also be damaging. Your Bradenton soil has unique nutritional requirements, store bought fertilizers deliver too much phosphorus. Two of the particularly big problems with Bradenton lawns is controlling Fire Ants and Chinch Bugs. Truly Nolen also has a great Flea and Tick program to make sure your pets don't bring fleas and ticks in from the yard.
Get the dirt on your Grass. Ask your Truly Nolen representative for a Grass Facts Sheet for your particular type of Turf grass for tips on maintenance and proper care.
Common Grasses Found in Bradenton, FL
In Bradenton, FL the majority of lawns will have the following types of turf grass:
- St. Augustine
- Bahia grass
- Bermuda grass
- Zoysia grass
Truly Nolen
2525 Whitfield Industrial Way
Sarasota, FL-34243.
Phone: 941-312-2970
Fax: 941-756-7475
I just wanted to extend my deepest gratitude to the Truly Nolen employee who stopped and helped me change my flat tire on the freeway this morning. It is one of those rare glimpses into the integrity of a company that is truly visible when its employees go above and beyond their duties. For my morning commute today on I-10 in El Paso, Tx, I was inconvenienced by a shredded tire. I am fairly capable at changing a tire myself, but the task did not seem at all appealing given the rush of traffic whizzing past my car on the side of the road. I was unnerved by the experience, not as proficient in changing a tire as my father would like for me to be, and very much out of my element. It was a great relief when from the other side of the freeway a giant yellow mouse pulled up. My hero stepped over the fence separating the lanes and asked if I needed any assistance. He immediately got to work and changed my tire much faster than I could have managed on my own. He turned my already horrendous commute into a mild inconvenience, graciously accepted my gratitude, and waited for me to merge into traffic before he continued on his way. I am truly indebted to the kindness of this employee and I would like to praise Truly Nolen for knowing and recognizing this genuineness of character. I did not get his name, but I have a suspicion that had it been any Truly Nolen employee I would still be writing this thank you correspondence. Thank you once again to my hero and to the entire Truly Nolen family..

Nov 21, 20129Great game. I didn't think i could still really enjoy a 2d puzzle-ish game. But yeah, i can. The story is pretty simple, but the gameplay compensates, very diverse and interesting from start to finish. Worth every penny.
Dec 26, 20129Very fun and well made game. It's a 2D platformer, but it doesn't need to be anything else. Everything is done just right. If you liked the platform games of the 80s and early 90s on the old Atari systems etc, you will probably like it. If your a COD kid you will probably hate it because it doesn't have amazing graphics and a new release every 3 months.

Jun 19, 201310Mark of the Ninja is an absolutely amazing stealth/platformer. The art style and gameplay are all top notch. Yes, it's 2D, but it's not linear as you can often choose which angle to attack from and can bypass obstacles and enemies entirely. One of the best games of 2012.
May 15, 20138
Oct 17, 201210
Nov 11, 20129This is one of the best stealth games I've played, probably the best 2D one. The visual style is perfect, gameplay is smooth and everything you do feels incredibly terrifying. Even though the controls are a bit confusing sometimes, it still deserves a spot in my top 10 games of this year.
Feb 10, 20135Way to easy.unrealistic. its only strong point was the story, overall eh, im surprised at the high review. no variety in kills and no real drive to replay

Oct 20, 20129It is simply fun. Challenging yet doesn't hamper fluidity. In most cases you could choose to kill or evade without the use of any consumables, both in a variety of different ways. It's among the very few games that I would actually like to replay.
Oct 22, 201210
Nov 26, 20126Its a good game, no 9/10 tho. Half way thru the game you pretty much discover every tool you need to become a good ninja which leaves the other half of the game a bit stale. Its a fun game just don't expect that much replay value.
Nov 29, 20126
Dec 21, 20128I got this game on steam just without any expectations. And I got really surprised how good it is. The game reminds you with its art style of some old times when we played games on commodore or some earlier pc platforms. But this game is really fun, I played it trough in 1-2 days. Only its a bit to short.
Dec 4, 20129
Jan 7, 201310This is the best 2D stealth game I've ever played, and is only beat by the Arkham games for general stealth. Being reckless will get you killed as it should in any stealth game, but even an action approach, if done correctly, can take down a room full of guards. This opens up various options for combat, or even pure, violence-free stealth.
Dec 22, 20128TotalBiscuit calls it
Mar 2, 201310Game has excellent balance between action packed platform jumping and still moment of stealth games. I can recommend this game for everyone that loves platform games.
Dec 30, 20129
Jan 22, 20139A very fluid stealth game. There is a steep learning curve on the controls, but by the time you learn all the character abilities, it feels a bit more natural. The perfect amount of gameplay. Maybe not such an original story, but told well. The animation is well executed and a welcome departure from 3D. Not impossibly challenging, good casual gaming.
Nov 8, 201210
Feb 21, 20138Mark of the Ninja is a 2-D sidescrolling, stealth-action, platformer. It is first and foremost a stealth game, from sneaking through the shadows and having to hide bodies. Mark of the Ninja brings a fresh take on the genre with is unique visuals and gameplay mechanics.
Mar 19, 20138
Apr 22, 20138
Oct 20, 201210It is a great game. I want to play it again and again. At present almost no games are combining high-quality graphics and fun gameplay. It is revolution in stealth genre!

Oct 28, 201210fantastic game. i dont play stealth games or i use firepower whrn going throuh stealth missions but this stealth is fun. great game as a platformer, as a stealth action beautiful stilization and graphics. i enjoy it big time!
Oct 30, 20129This is an amazing game! The stealth gameplay beats most of not all other stealth titles out there. Actually feels great to sneak by opponents, or equally great to rid them of their patrol path. The game feels simple to start, but gets nice and challenging later on. The upgrading system eventually gives you the abilities you wished for at the start. Highly recommended.
Nov 5, 201210I felt compelled to write a review; this game is quite simply, amazing. I was a huge fan of the first Tenchu: Stealth Assassin game on the PlayStation and this tweaks my nostalgia-nub hard. Agent 47 and Shank had a beautiful, kick-ass, baby and you're invited to his party for $15.
Nov 17, 201210Honestly, for a 15$ game this game is totally worth it. How often would you find a an amazing high action stealth game in 2D. Haven't had this much fun for a while, try it!
Nov 18, 201210
Nov 28, 201210Amazing game. Game of the Year for me. It totally reminded me of my old times platying Metal Gear Solid, trying to stay away from the guards and killing them when they weren't looking. If you enjoy stealth games, you'll have a lot of fun with this. It doesn't become repetitive at all and the art is beautiful to look at. And what's even better, it's only 15$!
Dec 1, 20129
Dec 29, 201210
Mar 8, 20138Mark of the ninja is actually quite a good game. The stealth system is well built, the challenges are real and the continuous progress of your character makes you replay the levels to find new techniques to pass them, earning achievements.
Dec 24, 201210One of the best 2D stealth games I have ever played. Grabbed it for $10 during a Steam sale and I'm loving. The art style is amazing, the gameplay is fluid and the ending... Well, just play it for yourself to see.
Dec 20, 20121A really bad game. The graphics don't even exist here. Everything is black; not even white!!
Don't waste even one dollar to buy this game, you'll regret it the next second!!
A 2D boring black game doesn't have place into my games collection!! -

Mar 15, 20135It's just a plataform game, with all its limitations. It is not really creative no true innovations. Yes, it is somehow fun to play, but it would be a great free online game.

Mar 22, 20139In my opinion, this takes stealth to a whole new level. In a lot of stealth games, it is difficult to know when you can be seen and when you can't. this is never an issue in this game and its all the better for it. This game is a gem and not to be missed.
Mar 28, 201310Mark of the Ninja is a great and interesting game.
Klei did great job on this game.
This game is awesome.
Amazing 10/10!
Hop too see the next one and plus the Shank 3. -
Jan 20, 201310best stealth and perfect 2D game ever it has very unique style of gameplay is smooth and incredibly awesome. Perfect game fast and fluid and s superb.
Feb 12, 20138What a great platformer. I had tremendous fun being a stealthy ninja and it wasn't made easy with point reductions and the fact you cant slash enemies head on. May be punishing at times, but that's the fun of it. The fun lasts for a good few hours, worth it.
Jan 25, 201310This game is amazing. I can't think of any complaints, flaws, bugs, or really any room for improvement. Unless you have a mental block that says that all games must feature 3D, this game should be on your shelf.

Feb 26, 20139I am gonna keep this simple. Go buy the game now and make sure you play on a nice gamepad. This is not only a great stealth game, it's one of the best game of 2012. I've been gaming since the early 90s and very rarely I will put in the effort to log in and post a review. Trust me, this game is worth your time and money.

Mar 7, 201310The best Ninja game I've played, and I've played plenty of them. An incredible sidescroller, in which stealth is very important. It is very replayable, as you can improve your score and obtain points to develop your character. It has beautiful graphics, smooth controls and runs perfect on PC. Awesome game.

Apr 4, 201310Excellent game I believe all the mixed reviews are mainly coming from pc users but for consoles this is revolutionary. There is a lot of depth to this game and there is plenty of room for working out the bugs and minor details. This is my first MMO and its a great place to start.
Apr 10, 201310Probably the best game I've played in several years. I rarely go back to complete achievements after I finish a game; but this one (taking all of fifteen hours) was quite enjoyable even during a second -more difficult- play through. It could be quite challenging at times, but never beat-your-face-on-your-keyboard-screaming-difficult. It's cheap, it's fun, and relatively rewarding, buy it.
Apr 20, 20138I spend a lot of good time with this game. You can really go in to it for 100%. There are a lot of solutions for making Your own ninja experience. Great fun for many hours.
Apr 20, 201310
Apr 28, 201310One of the few games to have given a lasting impression on me. Really a great piece of work. The ending was incredible, the cutscenes are beautiful, just everything about this game pleased me.
Apr 27, 20131This "game" does not deserve to be in the same category with actual stealth games like Metal Gear Solid. This is a simple flash game, nothing more. This is the kind of thing you would expect to see on Kongregate. I am ashamed and disgusted in all of you for legitimizing the sale of pathetic flash games.

Dr. Michael Reiss of Southern Nevada Chiropractic has successfully helped over 4,000 Las Vegas residents suffering from neck or back pain. Today Dr. Reiss gives new patients computerized spinal exam and a complimentary copy of his new book.
Las Vegas, NV (PRWEB) December 09, 2012
A car accident between two vehicles imparts a considerable amount of force on the body and spine. Even in low speed collisions, the forces add up to several times the force of gravity. This means your body generally cannot resist such large forces without being injured. These whiplash injuries may be minor, such as a muscle strain or more substantial, involving stretching of the disks and ligaments of the spine.
Las Vegas chiropractor Dr. Michael Reiss, has recently published a book titled "The Las Vegas Car Accident Victim's Health Guide." The book is now available on Amazon.com in both paperback and Kindle formats. Dr. Reiss has treated over 4,000 Las Vegas residents, with an emphasis in treating patients suffering with neck or back pain after a Las Vegas car accident.
"Will these whiplash injuries always cause neck pain or headaches right after the collision? Only if there is severe damage to tissues will you experience immediate pain after a collision. But most low speed collisions do not produce this type of instantaneous and intense pain. Instead, the person may feel "shaken up" or a little stiff," says Dr. Michael Reiss.
"Unfortunately many patients interpret this stiffness as nothing more than a simple muscle strain and do not seek treatment for whiplash injuries. Up to two weeks can go by before you start to feel the effects of a whiplash injury. This is why it is important to see a doctor immediately to see if things are truly ok following an auto accident," says Dr. Michael Reiss.
Where does somebody that has been in a recent car accident, even if they think they feel fine, find out more about car accidents in Las Vegas? Visit http://www.LasVegasCarAccidentTreatment.com for more info about Las Vegas chiropractor, Dr. Michael Reiss. "Anyone suffering after a recent auto accident can receive a Free computerized spinal exam to determine the extent of the whiplash injuries as well as available treatment options," says Dr. Michael Reiss.
Dr. Reiss believes this is important information for Las Vegas whiplash sufferers to be aware of, and he has decided to give away a free copy of his new book to anyone involved in a recent accident at http://www.lasvegascaraccidenttreatment.com/free-book.

If you're like me you spend a whole lot of time designing worship, coordinating ministries, and minding pastoral care. That doesn't leave much time left for doing what Dallas Theological Seminary professor, noted author, and congregational development consultant Aubrey Malphurs says is arguably the greatest need for today's churches: developing leaders.
I first heard of Aubrey when I read Advanced Strategic Planning, which he wrote for smaller churches, like mine, to help them see the importance of strategic planning. His practical advice and conversational style made me an instant fan.
Watch the Full Program Here:
Prefer audio? Click here for the Mp3
The Synopsis:
John Maxwell once said that, 'Everything rises and falls on leadership' – and Maxwell certainly has an ally in Aubrey Malphurs. An academic and practitioner, Dr. Malphurs says the Church is handicapped by its inability to raise up and train gifted leaders from our ranks. In this interview he inspired me to think more deeply about how I am developing leaders in my church.
Here are my notes from the interview:
Make Leadership Identification a Priority
Dr. Malphurs says clergy simply have to make time to put some sort of leadership identification and formation framework into place – period. He goes through three steps, beginning with a face to face meeting with our church board, to get the ball rolling.
Personal Leadership Development Plan
Do you have a plan in place to develop your personal leadership skills? Dr. Malphurs tells us why this is so important – and describes for us what such a plan might look like.
Five Steps in Strategic Planning
If you thought strategic planning is only for large congregations, Dr. Malphurs says, think again! He walks us through the five steps of Strategic Planning that just may inspire you to think more seriously about your congregation's long and short term plans.

text: U.S. 191B update to ease congestion By Francisco BarriosDouglas Dispatch As it was reported two weeks ago in the Douglas Dispatch, Douglas' Mayor and City Council approved the execution of an intergovernmental agreement between the Arizona Department of Transportation and the City of Douglas to redesign the traffic configuration for southbound Port of Entry traffic trying to cross to Mexico. The approval came after Acting Public Works Director Lauren Ann Ortega addressed the council by saying that for over two years, the City has been faced with a unique challenge at the Port of Entry that has created a traffic queuing on Pan American and 5th Street, causing dangerous traffic congestion within the vicinity. She explained that the City has not experienced the big lines to cross to Mexico before, so when it started affecting the businesses and general public they had to go to ADOT to express their concerns about the issue, because as it is known, Pan American Avenue belongs to the state and it is not a city road. According to Ortega, to address this challenge, staff has worked closely with ADOT to ensure an effective solution was developed in a timely fashion. First stages of the project included open meetings with community members to let them express their feelings about the situation and possible suggestions to implement. Now that after council approved the agreement, it has to go to the state for approval. After approval an environmental and utility clearance is needed before the construction to be started. "It is a delicate process that we have to look at," Ortega said. "It is a very special case that involves a lot of traffic of vehicles and pedestrians, so we want to make sure that all the aspects looked up before we actually do construction." Ortega has informed that the project will start no later than the end of this year or the first quarter of 2013 and the construction would last between 6-8 months approximately. Ortega expresses her confidence in this project by saying she thinks one of the factors the community would like is that the construction is flexible; it consist of temporary barriers and they are moveable, so in case the traffic changes eventually at that time the City has the option or removing or relocate the barriers for the comfort of the people. "This is a good thing because is effective but is also changeable," she said. Ortega recommended the community to stay tuned with this project through the media and the City of Douglas website, or asking directly at City of Douglas facilities, where is possible to find public notices or public work notices, to notify people what areas to avoid during construction and if there are restrictions on the street in the future. The proposal is intended to ensure the safety of both vehicles and pedestrians and not to increase crossing speed into Mexico, since the delays are mainly caused by car inspections made by the U.S. Customs to comply with Federal mandate to look for currency, drugs and weapons going into Mexico. For more information, please visit www.douglasaz.org Background information The project consist of the modification of pavement markings and striping on U.S. 191B to provide three southbound lanes and two northbound lanes south of 3rd Street, an automatic metering signal system with a manual override, and barricades to direct traffic as needed. Two lines will be used by non-commercial vehicles, while a third line will allow commercial vehicles or trucks to cross to Mexico. The City will be responsible for the electrical power expenses of the metering traffic signal. The anticipated cost electrical power expense is approximately $1,000 per year, to be funded out of the HURF fund. |

September 7, 2008

Derogatory term for a woman. Considered by many to be the most offensive word in the English language. My ex-girlfriend is a fucking cunt.
Cunt videos | |||
cunt images | |||
2. | cunt | ||
A synonym for a woman's genitalia, vagina, pussy, etc. She has the preetiest cunt :-)
I want to fuck her cunt You fucking cunt! I want to eat her cunt The two women were fucking each other's cunt |
3. | cunt | ||
One of the best parts of a girl's body.
The one thing most guys want to get to. A reciever for the male penis. A degrading name for a girl. That girl's cunt is tighter than a vice grip.
Susie has got one fine cunt. That girl Alice is a cunt. |
4. | cunt | ||
For some reason this word really offends people, maybe because of the exceptionally crude sound of the word, or maybe because talking about the female genitalia is still considered unnaceptable. Either way, people cannot seem to comprehend that it is just a word, making it a great thing to say around tight ass pussies to piss them off. I especially enjoy seeing feminists who talk about penises all day wince when I say cunt. Makes me so giddy inside.
5. | cunt | ||
A slang word for a vagina. I have a dripping wet cunt.
6. | cunt | ||
The word cunt is only insulting to Americans and over zealous feminists who don't realise its beauty.
It has almost replaced the word 'mate', often used in Australia to refer to people in a conversation when they can't be bothered trying to remember your name. Sick Aussie Cunt: Sup cunt?
American feminist: I find that insulting Sick Aussie Cunt: Piss off Sick Aussie Cunt 1: Sup cunt? Sick Aussie Cunt 2: Nothing much, cunt. |
The tastiest meal known to man. I love eating her cunt...

Online marriage program seeks to pay off
By J. David Barron,
Published: Friday, October 26, 2012 1:28 PM CDT
Are you willing to work for your marriage? Would you like to get paid for your work?
A unique, one-of-a-kind program has hit the Dallas-Fort Worth market with designs on strengthening the core of what it sees as the foundation for a better society: the marriage.
Guarantee Your Marriage is a new online marriage-training program that is part ministry, part commerce. It offers married couples an interactive curriculum that comes with both a warranty against divorce and a $25,000 payout for long-term success.
"Guarantee Your Marriage grew out of our passion for promoting and sustaining lifelong, successful marriages," said evangelist Jacques Bazinet. "After all, research shows that solid marriages and stable families are the foundation of society, and the marriage relationship is the most important relationship a person will experience in a lifetime.
"Guarantee Your Marriage is our fun and interactive way to help couples put their marriages first and to reward them when they do," Bazinet said. "And we believe strongly enough in our training that we are willing to provide a warranty in the event the marriage fails."
The training touts itself as a hassle-free manner in which couples learn strategies and skills to help them build and sustain more successful marriages. A small monthly membership fee is required and requires each partner to spend about 30 minutes online each month completing a training module. Additionally, couples are provided with various activities designed to reinforce what they each learned through the online curriculum.
"Nothing good happens without active engagement," Bazinet said. "We believe that couples can increase their odds of lasting love by working to stay positively connected and by handling the inevitable challenges of life as a team.
"For a regular investment of as little as 30 minutes a month, our online training provides a lifetime of resources that couples can use to keep their marriages happier, healthier and more successful for themselves and their children."
Couples who divorce after completing four years of the training, and who otherwise remain in good standing with the program, are eligible for a warranty payment of up to $10,000 - based on their years of participation in the program.
"For couples whose marriages just don't survive, we see the warranty as offering some support to help them overcome the emotional and financial upheaval that typically ensues when a couple divorces," Bazinet said.
Conversely, couples who reach 20 years of marriage with active membership in the program are offered a membership reward of $25,000 for their success.
"We know that the biggest value of our training comes from the joy and fulfillment couples experience with happier, healthier and more successful marriages, but having a monetary payoff for their efforts over time adds one more incentive to continue investing in their relationships with the regular training we provide," Bazinet said. "The day we make our first membership reward payoff to a couple will be one of the happiest days of my life!"
The membership reward, like the divorce warranty, is paid out to eligible couples over a five-year period.
The training content is based on more than 30 years of research findings on marriage and relationship education, according to Prevention and Relationship Enhancement Program (PREP) founders Dr. Howard J. Markman and Dr. Scott M. Stanley. The two are researchers from the University of Denver's Center for Marital and Family Studies. They promote PREP as a research-based and tested educational approach to helping couples build and maintain stronger, healthier and happier marriages. Markman and Stanley have been tracking couples in numerous studies over many years in order to advance the knowledge needed to help couples achieve their goals in marriage.
"We have devoted our professional lives to helping couples succeed in their marriages," Stanley said. "We know the devastating effects broken marriages have on society, and we also know the payoffs for successful marriage relationships. For example, studies show people in healthy marriages are likely to have better physical health than others, have greater satisfaction with their lives, and tend to build more assets and savings over their lifetime.
"But it doesn't stop there. Research shows that children who grow up with parents in healthy marriages tend to fare better in terms of academic performance, mental health, drug and alcohol use, and their own relationships, than children whose parents divorce. The positive effects of successful marriages can - and often do - pay off for generations," Stanley said.

Fantastic, Ellen. I just pruned mine back on Thursday. The grapes have set for the season and they look great. I really have no idea what I'm doing with them - very much learning as I go. I'm glad the grapes know what they're doing ;)
Toni, I'm in zone 7a. It gets brutally hot here. Our growing season keeps getting earlier and earlier. This year I could have easily set out plants in March. Although the temp dropped in the high 30's, low 40's in March, it was in the 70's and 80's most of the time with no frost. The grapes really came out fast this year.

DOBSON — The Lady Eagles held the lead until the last minute of the third quarter, then the Lady Cardinals pulled ahead for a 56-45 win.
Surry Central was ahead 35-27 after the third straight basket from Marlee Wilmoth.
Then East Surry went on an 18-3 run over six and a half minutes to go up 45-38 with 5:35 left in the fourth quarter.
"Being in foul trouble kind of messed up the flow a little bit," said Central Coach Mandy Holt.
The Eagles held East star Keri Fulp to just two points in the first quarter and six in the first half. In the second half, however, Fulp scored 14 points, including 6-6 at the stripe.
Sydney Mosley scored 11 of her 17 points in the second half, too, as East Surry put up 37 points after just 19 in the first half.
Central's top three scorers — Cassidy Joyner, Courtney Hegler and Sarah Bruce — combined for 23 points in the first half. Then in the second half, with Hegler and Bruce sitting often with foul trouble, the trio posted only six points.
"When teams go man, we usually get excited," said Holt. "But we didn't take advantage of it."
At the start, Central scored the first seven points as East Surry didn't have a bucket for the first three and a half minutes before Mosley sank a slashing shot off the glass.
When Joyner hit one of two at the line, the Eagles led 12-3 at the end of the first.
Hegler opened the second with a three-point play just 25 seconds in for a 15-3 lead.
Still, the Cards began to claw back. They got to the foul line, but missed the second shot on five straight fouls.
With Fulp, Mosley and Gabi Jessup hitting the offensive glass, however, the Cards got second chances.
Jessup hit a three and Fulp finally gave the Cards two straight free throws that cut the lead to 22-19.
Joyner hit a three-pointer in the closing seconds for a 25-19 lead at the half.
In the third quarter, Wilmoth, who sat much of the first half with foul trouble, attacked the basket and posted seven straight points for the Eagles.
Then Mosley and Fulp triggered the big run that put the Cards up 49-40 with 4:44 left.
The Cards went to the foul line 16 times in the fourth quarter, making 10 (63 percent), while the Eagles managed just seven total points.
"We wanted this one so bad," said Holt, "but I'm still really proud of the girls."
The Eagles hadn't played a game in 11 days due to having last Tuesday off, then the weather postponement of Friday's game with Bishop McGuinness.
In this conference, teams have to be ready to play every night, she said. Surry Central, East Surry, Mount Airy and Bishop have all been hanging losses on each other in the battle for second place behind North Surry.
Fulp led all scorers with 20, followed by Mosley's 17, Jessup with seven, Emma Slater six, Laken Bowman five and Lauren Thompson one.
Fulp also contributed 21 rebounds and three blocks. Mosley had four assists and four rebounds. Jessup had five rebounds. Thompson added four board, four assists and three steals.
Bowman had just two buckets, but they came at opportune times, said East Coach Keith Gunter. She does some good things on defense and plays tough and strong.
For Central, Joyner had 16 points and five rebounds.
Hegler tallied 10 points, six steals, four rebounds and two assists. Holt said the senior has been doing so much better at moving her feet and not picking up fouls, but couldn't seem to avoid them in this game.
Tess Dockery scored just one point, but she made five steals.
Wilmoth finished with 11 points, Brittany Lewis four and Bruce three.
Central forced East into eight turnovers in the first quarter, but the Cards were much better after that, noted Gunter. East had four TOs in the second quarter and just four for the entire second half, which limited Central's fast break chances.
