Sissi (Bulgaria) - Antwerp - Verversrui 22/3 - by singa
Visited Sissi from Bulgaria today. Hey body type is very slim and she has small, but beautiful breasts, which I touched a lot. The typical thing with Sissi is that for almost the whole session, she keeps looking straight in your eyes. All the time, during blowjob, during fucking. It's very exciting if that is your thing. She has a few large scars on her hips from an operation, but she is anyway very beautiful. The experience was so good that I am defenitely going back to her again.

Andrea (Brazil) - Antwerp - Verversrui 10/3 - by simpla
Beautiful looking girl, with nice brazilian ass. Services provided not so good, will never go again. Most bad experience I ever had in Antwerp. No compassion, just wants her way and you out as quick as possible.

Rose-Marie (Romania) - Antwerp - Schippersstraat 23/2 - by severin
Rose-Marie is currently one of the hottest looking girls in the SKW. She has very long legs, blond hair, D-cup tits (silicone). I went with her upstairs with the lift. In her room we both undressed and then she asked me to wash my hands first before I touch her all over her body. Her english is good for basic conversation. She first started with touching me everywhere, kisses on my chest. Then got me covered and started with a nice blowjob. The she asked which position I want to start with, and I replied "you go on top, cowgirl". She did that very well, different speed and intensity. Her pussy is pretty tight. She does make some fake sounds, which were a bit annoying. She is very passionate. Then, just in time, I asked her to change position, because I was about to come, so we changed to missio, and looking at her from this angle while fucking her was amazing. Then she had to apply some more lube, which was again a good intermezzo for me again, and she asked me which position I wanted now and I chose for reverse cowgirl. And this was the best reverse cowgirl fuck that I have ever enjoyed. She kept it going at a good pace, without stopping, I looked passed her into a mirror to see her beautiful body from the front, alternating with looking at her back and ass. Then I came so good, and she did not stop, she just went on and on, even though she already heard and felt I came, she just went on and on until every drop of juice was released and I had to move a bit to let her stop. Hahaha. Then she did a good cleanup. Got dressed. She offered me a chocolate on the way out, but I declined, because I already had my type of candy for the day ;-)

Jasmin (Romania) - Antwerp - Schippersstraat 11 - by temsel
Today I spotted Jasmin at Schippersstraat 11. And let me tell you right from the start, she is my new favorite of the schipperskwartier in Antwerp. Why? Jasmin is about 22 years old, from Romania, she speaks good english, good length, nice slim figure, large natural breasts, long black hair. Jasmin is a hooker, but in my opinion she does not look and act like a hooker, at times I felt like I was really fucking my gf. I am not talking about this GFE shit. No, she just does not look and act like a hooker. I will not wait for long, probably I will take her again tomorrow.

Reisa (Romania) - Antwerp - Verversrui 5 - by jimmy
Now, this Reisa is a hardcore hooker. She knows what she is doing and why she is doing it. But I am not complaining here, because she is doing it well. Standing in fron of the window she is showing her best side all the time which is her nice small round ass, wearing a nice lingerie set. She has small tits, but I guess not many people get to see them, because she is always wearing this set that is kind of hard to take off. She has blond hair. I followed her upstairs, by lift, in her room which also contains a shower and a bath she quickly took off her underwear, but kept on this body/leg lingerie. Reisa's goal is to get you finished as quick as possible. Normally this is a recipe for disaster, but she does is in a good way. I mean, she is so hot and just knows how and what to do. So I don't care. She started with a handjob / blowjob combo which already made me almost come (which I believe is part of her goal). Then she went ono top of me in reverse cowgirl position and then she was riding me that way with her tiny pussy. What I enjoyed so much, was the feeling of the ends of her long hair touching my lower legs while she was doing reverse cowgirl. No position changes, because this girl knows how to get the job done in no-time. In my mind I was saying the alphabet in reverse, but finally there was no way to stop the tsunami of sperm. Very quick clean up and she is ready to go while I am still recovering and dressing. For sure, Reisa gets a lot of traffic, because of her looks and her efficient way of working. But what the hell, this was fantastic.

Annie's Soapy Massage
by simba
After a long flight back from a business trip, I literally let the taxi wait downstairs of my condo, dropped of my suitcase, and gave directions to Annie's Soapy Massage. I was lucky to see number 24 (her name is something like Aor) available. I have seen her before on the website. Chose her, Annie's standard 2500 baht + some change for several drinks. Aor is very sweet, sexy and enthusiastic. First a soapy massage on the mat, then we soaked a bit in the bath, she performed very well with a BBBJ, me finishing with a CIM. Then we relaxed a bit more in the bath, I gave her a bit of foot massage. After that rest, we moved to the small bed, and then she gave me a light massage, which was good for me to give me some time to reload. Then when I felt I was getting excited again, I asked her to put on a condom and I fucked her first doggy and then normal until I came for the 2nd time. I can highly recommend Aor, number 24 at Annie's Soapy Massage.

FS. Polly - Hong Kong - Tsim Sha Tsui - by ianj
Compared to other working girls that I visited in Hong Kong, Polly is very beautiful. We had a shower together, she giving me some body massage already, then we moved to the bed where she gave me a long BBBJ / handjob combination, then cowgirl until I finished. Some people might say she rushed things a bit, but hey she is good and knows what she is doing and I felt great.

Patricia (Spain) - Antwerp - Schippersstraat (somwhere in the middle)- by jaico
Silly me, I guessed this girl was from Russia, but how wrong can you be. Patricia is from Allicante, Spain, and here in Antwerp just for work. And you guess what are her skills. She very beautiful firm tits, I guess about cup C. Her age is late twenties, early thirties, but I could be wrong. She has a tatoo of a rosary arround her lower right leg and ankle. She can look a bit intimidating at times, but when you get to meet her she is very friendly and sweet. She took her time giving a very good blowjob, long enough and also at times deep enough, so good. Then she asked me which position I liked and I chose for just normal way. Her pussy is nice and tight and she acts very well as she is enjoying it (not too much overacting), which was very nice. No time rush. This is girl is worth some more visits!!! Oh wait, only one thing, normally until now all working girls remove the condom and clean up a bit afterwards. Patricia gives you some tissue and let's you take care of that yourself.

Dana (Romania) - Antwerp - Schippersstraat 23/3 - by tim
Dana is in her early twenties and works at the Schipperskwartier in dayshifts only. She has blond hair and a nice figure. She is from Romania. Her blowjob skills are good, but she does not give it for a very long time. I fucked her in missionary position only, all the while she was looking at me in my eyes and making some (fake) sounds. It was a good start of the day, but I am not going to visit her again. However, I recommend to give her a try.

Antwerp - Schippersstraat 15/3 - Liliane (Portugal) - by tim
The day before yesterday I visited Liliane who is from Portugal. Following her up the stairs, I already was enjoying the splendid view of her figure from behind. When we arrived at the room we quickly arranged the financial part (50 euro), then we started to warm each other by hugging and some kissing. I removed her top and felt her soft natural breasts. Then I took off her black string and viewed her ass and pussy from behind, which turned me on so much. Then I fucked her doggy until I came in no time.

Bina - Germany - Chemnitz - Lessingstr. 11 - by marcus
I went to visit Bina in Chemnitz. It was a long drive, but after seeing her pics on AsiaLadies.de I had to go and check this cutie out. Pics are ofcourse photoshopped, but in real she is very beautiful and sexy. Smaller than I expected, but whatever. She can't give head very well, but she makes up for that with her enthousiasm. Fucked her hard doggy, flay doggy and missionary positions. Unloaded all over her body, especially on her nice breasts.

Nuch at
Heidi Massage Bangkok
by eugene
A couple of days ago I found myself at the premises of Heidi Massage Bangkok. I went to visit a friend in the neighbourhood, but was way too early and opted for a massage with Nuch. She is a nice girl. After a wonderful back massage she gave me a BBBJ. I could not warn her in time and came deep inside her warm mouth. She took no offense and even laughed a bit, especially when I gave her a very good tip.

Jessica - Hong Kong - Sheung Wan - by marcj
Jessica on the first floor has huge tits. I can't decide if they are real or silicone. I guess she is close to 40 years old. She speaks some english. I got a long massage first, then a below average blowjob. Then I fucked her doggy style, pounding as hard as I could. Then she was on top riding me for a couple of minutes until I came. Everything ok, but not a repeater. Flat D, 1/F, Hing Loong Bldg., 6 Wing Lok St., Sheung Wan

Hera (Bulgarian) - Belgium - Antwerp - Schippersstraat 21 - by tom
Today, at first I thought this day was going to be a disappointment, in my what seems to be my never ending quest of trying to fuck each and every asian hooker in Belgium. I already fucked all the asian hookers in the Schipperskwartier that I saw today. Then I decided to go that non-asian girl who always looks so fucking hot with her slim body and big tits, nipples just only covered by a small line of fabric. Meet Hera from Bulgaria, about 24 years old, slim body, big silicone tits, black hair, lots of make-up. "Do you want to come in with me?" "Yes I want that". I followed her one floor up. She was undressed quickly, while I was undressing we did some small talk. "I saw you before, why you never choose me? There is so many choice of pretty girls right?, she asked", "Lay down and relax", she started to kiss me on various parts on my body including my already stone-hard cock. She took her time with that for at least 5 minutes. Slipped on a condom with her mouth and started with a blowjob. Let me tell you this right now: This was the BEST blowjob EVER!!! She worked on it for I guess about 5 minutes. This girl is really doing her best. Then sat on top, and because her pussy felt so tight, I could not hold it for very long. After just 1 minute I just in time, asked her to stop, which she did luckily 1 second before I almost came, and I asked her if she could lay on her back and I could fuck her. I started to fuck her, I noticed she moved her body in an angle so that she was enjoying the thrusts. All the while she was looking deep in my eyes. Sorry I needed not more than a few minutes and when she said "come in my pussy" the deal was done in seconds. This was my best experience in the Schipperskwartier, and I will go back to her again. Probably my feelings will change, but I could have her at least once a week!!!

Ka Yan - Hong Kong - Sheung Wan - by steven
After reading a great review of this girl on sex141, I decided to give her a try. I must concur she is amaaazzing. Her looks are very close to what you see on her pics. We took a shower together, she started with a fantastic blowjob for longer than I have ever had before. She knows what she is doing. We moved to the bed and while I was fucking her she never turned away looking deep inside my eyes. Just when I was about to release I pulled out, removed the condom and came all over her slim body.

Ohm (Thai) - Belgium - Antwerp - Schippersstraat 23 - by tom
I already saw this cutie the week before when I went to Sarah. Ohm is early twenties. Great slim figure, small breasts with small nipples. She is from Chiang Mai, Thailand, which you can see, because her skin is lighter than her sisters from the north-east (Isaan). She has 2 tattoos, one tribal on her waist above her ass, and one chinese character on her right shoulder. I am going to remember and decipher this character next time when I take her from behind :-) She has very long black hair and is very friendly. The usual, blowjob with condom, fucking in different positions and this time she got me finished with a handjob by my request. Offered a nice cold can of cola afterwards and had some chat about Thailand. Kisses on the cheek and see you next time !!!

Sarah (Romanian) - Belgium - Antwerp - Schippersstraat 23 - by tom
Has been some time since I last visited the Schipperskwartier in Antwerp. I did some window shopping, and quickly realized that this girl at one of the windows at Schipperstraat 23 was the one for me today. Her name is Sarah and she is from Romania. She is 21 years old and has a slim body with nice natural B cup breasts. She is sweet, relaxed, blowjob with condom, doggy style and then missionary position. She was saying "fuck my pussy, baby" and "come in my pussy" and it did not take a long time for that to happen.

Annie's Soapy Massage
by davidj
I went to Annie's and chose this girl who later turned out to be number 35 from the website. She is pretty, slim, not long, small breasts. I bought a drink for me and a drink for her, which eased the whole situation. She liked to talk and that made me really feel comfortable, even though she was kind of hard to understand. The soapy started and it was so nice to feel her hot body all over my back. She asked me to turn arround and gave me a really long BBBJ. Then to the bad, where she continued the BBBJ until I came like a fountain. Then she gave me a good rub down and relaxed a bit in the hot water. I massage her feet for a short while. After showering we moved to the bed and she started the BBBJ again (I had requested not to have any oil massage, as I usually can't stand the oil). Then she put on the condomn and we fucked in various positions. While doing doggy I wet my finger and pushed it halfway in her ass. At the end while my favorite position, flat doggy, when I almost came, I retreated, removed the condom and came on her ass and lower back. This girl did everything that I wanted and I would recommend her to anyone.

Chrisie (Bulgarian) - Belgium - Antwerp - Schippersstraat 6 - by fonz
Today I visited Chrisie. I think this is how her name is spelled, and I think her working place is at number 6. I saw the number 6 / 8 / 10 next to her place. Chrisie is from Bulgaria, is about 22 years old. Blond (colored) hair, tiny/small body, small boobs. She looks very beautiful. She has a couple small tatoos, normally I don't fancy that, but it looked very sexy on her. In her words, 50 euro, suck, fuck, change positions and kissing on her body. She is in my opinion very good looking, sexy and she is sweet. I first let her go on top, but she asked to change, because my tool is too big, then we did doggie, and missionary position. I will visit her again some time, because she is so sweet. She notified me that she only works during the day, because she can't handle the idiots who come at night. She works here or on the other side. She mentioned that she has been here since 3 months now.

Magdalena is a Russian thirty something, working at the Schipperskwartier. Medium blowjob with condom, after that she was riding on top of me and I had to cross my toes not to come to quickly, after that I came deep inside while doing doggy. Will go again.

Sexy Thai Sandy (Tha) - Germany - Krefeld - Uerdinger Str. 57 - by phil
If you choose a girl by looking at the pics online, my advice to you is to choose one which looks very good in your eyes, because in real, without photoshop it can be a disappointment. Not for this girl Thai Sandy, working from Krefeld in Germany. Have a look at one of her pictures here:
and let me tell you WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get). She works from a building in a normal street in Krefeld. There is enough (paid) parking options in the street. Her place is on the 1st floor. There are a couple of other girls on the other floors, but I have not checked them out because they are not asian. Clean place, can take a shower, clean towels, soap, everything ok. About 100 euro for 40 minutes. Blowjob without condom, sex with condom. Good massage after sex. She has very nice firm breasts, small, but not too small. I am undecided about if they were real or silicone. Sweet personality. She is late 30's, but could go for late 20's. +491735847899

Helen (Thai) - Germany - Nuernberg - Konradstr. 13 - by thomasb
Okay, I believe this "girl" used to be a boy. But, if it looks like a girl, smells like a girl, feels like a girl, and sucks and fucks like a girl - I don't care !!! Friendly, great body, firm (silicone) breasts, blowjob with condom, lots of riding and rubbing, tight pussy. Several other "girls" in the same building.

Ahm (Thai) - Germany - Nürnberg - Platenstr. 13 - by thomasb
Ahm accepts that she is a hooker, knows her job well and pleases as she can. Fun to be with, relaxed atmosphere. Very good massage before and after sex. Blowjob without condom. Everything including anal possible. Large (silicone) breasts. I guess early forties. Whole experience was good, only drawback was that the warm water system was not working, which did not make the shower before and after very nice. I will go back again some time.

Anna at
EZ Massage Bangkok
by jiminkabul
Ordered Anna from EZ Massage to my hotel. Earlier that day I had already visited Annie's Soapy Massage and in the beginning of the evening went with a freelancer that I picked up at Gullivers, so I already was milked twice that day. Anna is beautiful, but because I already came twice earlier on the day I could not come easily, despite the fact that she very performed well and is sooo hot, I really had to fuck her brains out in various positions before I came. I checked my watch and I saw I been going at it unstopped for close to 50 minutes.

First of all I want to say that I never left Annies without a smile on my lips! Lately I was recommended No:28. That recommendation was VERY GOOD! No:28 is a lovely girl that is very friendly in the room and does a highly skilled job in every manner. Her attitude is a 10/10 and overall performance is also very very good, without giving any details. I have already booked her tvice and wouldn't hesitste doing it again soon. I really think she deserves a higher rating than 7 on your internet page. At least 9. Thank you again for recommending her! Hope to see you all again soon!

Birnenblute (Taiwanese) - Germany- Worms - Pfauentorstr. 19 - by carlos69
Really had a great 30 minutes with this girl, I believe her name is something like Kiki. I went to the Pfauentorstr. 19 and had a choice between her and another girl. She is not from Japan, she is from Taiwan. I opted for her and 30 minutes. First a shower together, then on the bed she immediately started sucking my dick. It felt great the way she did that. Then she put on a condom and sat on my cock, which entered her tightly and deeply. She rode for a while during which I could not stop my hands from touching her nice silicone filled breasts and then she moved one of her hands behind her while she was sitting on my cock and started massaging my balls. At first this felt uncomfortable, but I let her go on, pretty soon it started to feel really really good and I just didn't want her to stop with that. Then while still on top of me she bent over so that we could hug each other tightly while I thrusted slowly. She pressed her lips against my neck. Then she started to massage my balls again while still riding on top of me. After a while she removed the condom and put my cock back into her warm mouth and used her mouth and hands to a spectacular finish.

Nr. 79 at
Annie's Soapy Massage
by bkk4all
On a recent trip to Bangkok I went to visit Annie's Soapy Massage for the first time. At first I could not find it, but that was because I saw a bar called Annie's Bar and I thought Annie's Soapy Massage was not near, but it seemed to be on the opposite. Just look clearly. I approached, there were just a couple of girls sitting outside, when they noticed that I was going inside, they welcomed me and then hurried upstairs. While I walked in, many other girls who were already inside rushed in the fishbowl. In total at least 15. I was asked to take a seat in front of the fishbowl and choose one or more girl. I was a bit overwhelmed and asked for a drink, which was brought to me swiftly. It was very hard to choose, because I liked many of the girls, but finally I chose number 79, if I understood well, her nickname is Pat (she also has a picture on the website). Paid like 2580 (2500 massage + 2 soft drinks). I asked a drink for her too and then she took the lead in walking me to the room. I have heard a lot of complaining about state/age of the rooms, but I have no complaint at all. Pat turned on the hot water to fill the bath. Pat told me she will be right back and left for a short moment to get some stuff (a basked with oil, soap, condoms, and other things). She does not speak a lot of English, but she is very cute and sweet so that very much makes up for that. Next to the bath was a plastic mattress on the floor and on the opposite side of the room was a mattress on a higher area. Pat asked me to lay down on the plastic mattress and she rubbed my whole body with soap and after that she used various parts of her body to "soapy" massage me. I already came once during this part of the session. Then we moved to the bath. She moved her legs below me and pushed me up so she could give me a BBBJ. I was supposed to come in her mouth in this part of the session, but I was unable to, because I was recovering from what happened on the plastic mattress. After some playtime in the bath and cleaning up, we moved to the bed. The bed is not big, but still ok, but fair to say, both me and Pat have a BMI lower than 19. After some cuddling, she asked me to put on the condom (because she had long nails) and then she rode on top of me. Then I fucked her in missionary position and then from the side while holding her small breast tightly in my hands. It did not take long before my sperm cells crashed into the plastic wall of the condom. After that we both cleaned up again in the bath/shower and got dressed. I gave Pat a 500 tip, she wai-ed and she escorted me to the exit. I will definitely come back to Annie's Soapy Massage again, because: 1. you know what you will get: 2 hours, 2 shots, no time pressure, good friendly service 2. nice line up of girls 3. privacy As for beautiful Pat, number 79, I can highly recommend her. I also went to have a look at Rainbow 4 in NEP. I do have to say that I saw a gazillion extremely good looking girls there, but bar fining and bringing one back to a hotel is not (yet) for me. I stick with Annie's Soapy Massage.

Me and my wife choose nr 20 and nr 55, they worked really good together, first i got a nice blowjob from nr 20 i came on her boobs. My wife was taken care by nr 55. Some soap later we moved to the bed and got a really nice massage. Nr 55 gave the wife a nice orgasm and after that both 20 and 55 gave me a double blowjob. It was a really nice time. Both the girls really could suck a dick ! they wouldnt let me fuck them because my tool was to big. Anyway a really nice time.

EE gave me a realy good blowjob, that girl can really suck some dick. She was good but couldnt deeptroath my big tool, ain't complaining because it was really nice. When I came between those soft lips i was in heaven! I will be back.
Anna, or as I call her 'The Thoroughbred' is a superstar teen dancer at Heaven Above aGoGo in Pattaya. Every time I go in there I go to see Anna. She does this ass-shake-thing with her bubble booty that is straight out of a rap video. I knew I had to breed with this perfect Thai specimen, so I paid the bar fine, and walked my young mare back to my barn for mating. Anna knows her way around the stable, shoving my cock deep into her mouth. She then saddles my cock and bucks like a wild stallion. I turned Anna over and sank my purebred into Anna's dripping cunt and shot my entire load deep into the her pussy turning my filly into a dam. My little pony should be arriving in 11 months.

Men's Basketball: Freshman Brase earns starting role
As the Tigers (6-7) gear up to start Ivy League play, freshman forward Hans Brase has begun to emerge as a starter with impact potential. The South Carolina native is the first Princeton men's basketball player to start consistently as a freshman since guard Doug Davis '12 in 2009.
Brase had a career-high 17 points in his first game as a starter on Dec. 20 against Rider University, demonstrating his ability to rise to the occasion and respond well to the additional pressure of the more prominent role. However, he said he focuses more on team performance and the effort he puts forth every day, in addition to the intangibles of the game, than he does on his own personal stats.
"The biggest thing I think I have brought to the team is energy," Brase said. "Every game I simply try to do whatever it takes to help us win, whether it be getting rebounds, scor[ing], or guard[ing] the other team's big man."
Brase is currently second on the team in offensive rebounds with 15 on the season and averages 2.7 total rebounds per game. He also averages just under five points per game.
"[My success is due to] just hard work in the gym outside of practice and getting extra work in with the coaches," Brase said. "The coaches really trusted me and have stuck with me even when things have not been the prettiest on my end."
This trust has led to an Ivy League Rookie of the Week honor as well as three straight double-digit scoring games at the end of December. He leads all of the freshmen on the team in playing time this season.
Despite his growing role on the court, he is humble about the impact he has made and attributes his success to a supportive team and program.
"I owe it all to my teammates, especially the older guys, because they have helped me so much with the plays and transitioning from high school to college. Each and every one on our team has brought me aside and helped me in some way, whether it be with our plays or advice about basketball or college life in general," Brase said. "We are a pretty close bunch, and I think that has helped me tremendously."
Additionally, Brase has spent a good deal of time on the court outside of scheduled practices and said that this has greatly encouraged his development throughout the season and facilitated his promotion to the starting position. His more experienced teammates welcome the rookie's increasing presence on the court.
"Hans has developed into an important part of what we're trying to do this season," junior guard Chris Clement said. "He gives us athletic scoring in the post, while his shooting ability also stretches the defense. He's made great strides in the last few weeks, and I look forward to watching his progress the rest of the season."
"I would say that Hans is vital to the success of our team," sophomore guard Clay Wilson said. "His ability to score in the paint opens the court up for everyone else. He provides us with an inside threat, and he's getting better every single day. He is the best offensive rebounder I know and his ability to rebound has given us several extra possessions already this year. Hans is a great player with a great work ethic and because of that his potential is through the roof."
The Tigers will lean on this effort, energy and continued improvement in the coming weeks as they begin Ivy League competition.
The Tigers beat Elon 74-64 in their first contest of the new year, making it the fourth consecutive time that they have won their first game of the calendar year. They will host Penn at 6 p.m. on Saturday, Jan. 12 in Jadwin Gymnasium.

Lance Armstrong finally admits to doping, lying in interview with Oprah Winfrey
- Last Updated: 6:43 AM, January 18, 2013
- Posted: 2:17 AM, January 18, 2013
"Absolutely not," he said.
An ashen-faced Armstrong denied he felt he was cheating, saying the pervasiveness of doping in the sport meant he had to take drugs just to compete with his rivals.
"I viewed it as very simple. You had things that were oxygen-boosting drugs, for lack of a better word, that were incredibly beneficial for performance or endurance sports, and that's all you needed," he said. "My cocktail, so to speak, was only EPO, transfusions and testosterone, which in a weird way I almost justified because of my history with testicular cancer."
Drugs were as vital as water, he said.
"That's like saying we have to have air in our tires or water in our bottles," he said. "That was, in my view, part of the job."
"At the time, it did not feel wrong?" Winfrey asked.
"No," he said. "Scary."
"Did you feel bad about it?" she continued.
"No," he said. "Even scarier."
"Did you feel in any way that you were cheating?" she asked.
"No," he said. "Scariest."
"I went and looked up the definition of cheat," he continued. "And the definition is to gain an advantage on a rival or foe. I didn't view it that way. I viewed it as a level playing field."
He said he understood the anger of those he cheated. "They have every right to feel betrayed, and it's my fault. I will spend the rest of my life trying to earn back trust and apologize to people for the rest of my life," he said
Armstrong said he wished he had responded to charges by the USADA, whose report last year led to him being stripped of his Tour titles.
"I'd say, 'Guys, let me call my family, my sponsors, my organization, tell them what I've got to do, and I'll be right there,' " he said.
Armstrong refused to say whether a teammate's former wife, Betsy Andreu, was right when she claimed that she heard him list the steroids he was taking to an Indiana doctor treating him for cancer in 1996.
"It was a confidential, personal conversation," he replied.
"They've been hurt too badly," he said, when asked if they had made peace. "I did call her crazy. I think she'd be OK with me saying this . . . I said, 'I called you crazy, I called you a bitch, but I never called you fat.' "
He denied that he failed a drug test in 2001 and then bribed the International Cycling Union and other officials. "There was no positive test. No paying off of the lab," he said.
Armstrong said he stopped doping in 2005 and was clean when he placed third at the 2009 Tour de France.
The interview aired hours after Olympic authorities took away his 2000 bronze medal.

A new video by MoveOn.org Political Action asks:
Q: How do you get to 100 years in Iraq?
A: Six months at a time.
Watch it:
A new video by MoveOn.org Political Action asks:
Q: How do you get to 100 years in Iraq?
A: Six months at a time.
Watch it:
ABC News reported tonight that President Bush's most senior and trusted advisers met in "dozens of top-secret talks and meetings in the White House" beginning in 2002 to approve the use of "combined" interrogation techniques (the joint use of harsh interrogation techniques). Those tactics included whether detainees "would be slapped, pushed, deprived of sleep or subjected to simulated drowning, called waterboarding."
Members of the National Security Council's Principals Committee — Dick Cheney, Condoleezza Rice, Donald Rumsfeld, Colin Powell, George Tenet, and John Ashcroft — approved the use of these techniques. "Sources said that at each discussion, all the Principals present approved." According to ABC's report, Ashcroft indicated he was troubled by the meetings:
According to a top official, Ashcroft asked aloud after one meeting: "Why are we talking about this in the White House? History will not judge this kindly."
Watch ABC's report:
Bush's former Secretary of Homeland Security — Tom Ridge — has said there is "no doubt" that waterboarding is torture.
Marc Ambinder writes, "[I]t remains one of those hidden secrets in Washington that a Democratic Justice Department is going to be very interested in figuring out whether there's a case to be made that senior Bush Administration officials were guilty of war crimes."
In recent weeks, Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) has repeatedly bumbled the details of the outcome of intra-Shiite violence in Basra, falsely claiming Muqtada al-Sadr was defeated by Prime Minister Maliki's forces. "Very rarely do I see the winning side declare a ceasefire," he said on March 31. "I don't think Sadr would have declared the ceasefire if he thought he was winning," he again said this Sunday.
The phrase has become a frequent claim from the right wing. Now, surge architect Fred Kagan is jumping to McCain's defense. Yesterday, on the PBS News Hour, Kagan claimed Sadr simply "stood his forces down, adding that "McCain rightly said" that Maliki did not declare the cease-fire:
KAGAN: And it's not the way — as Senator McCain rightly said, the side that's winning a conflict like this doesn't generally call a timeout and say, "Hey, you know, we've had enough. Thank you very much." And it's not the way it's playing on the Iraqi street.
Watch it:
Armchair general Kagan's "street" analysis is grossly oversimplified. Maliki's government in fact traveled to Iran to "win the support of the commander of Iran's Qods brigades" for a cease-fire (revealing his dependence on Iran), to which Sadr agreed. Maliki's government then issued a statement praising Sadr, after the PM insisted days earlier there would be "no negotiation."
Earlier in the segment, Lt. Gen. William Odom (ret.) of Yale University explained the possible outcome of the fighting — that the future government in Iraq will not be "one of our allies":
ODOM: It showed how impossible it is to expect anything productive out of the Maliki government. Let me make a key point about this government: When this is all over, the people in the Green Zone now and the Maliki government will not be in charge. The future successful government in Iraq is not one of our allies. It will be somebody who wins the civil war. And we're trying to ally with all sides to prevent it.
Today, the press is reporting that Sadr has threatened to end the cease-fire he imposed on his militia last year, "raising the prospect of worsening violence." Of course, Kagan probably sees this as characteristics of a defeated Sadr.
Huffington Post observes that Gen. Petraeus has also bought the rosy spin, reportedly offering "a dramatically different interpretation of the recent violent unrest in Basra" than he did the day before.
Yesterday on NBC Nightly News, Middle East Correspondent Richard Engel sharply criticized the testimony of Amb. Ryan Crocker and Gen. David Petraeus. He said that the Bush administration originally promised that troops could "pull back" once "conditions on the ground improve[d]," but nevertheless, the troops still "have to stay." He added that if he were a parent of a U.S. soldier, he would be "upset":
Overwhelmingly, I came away with the impression that it was somewhat frustrating and disheartening that the rules of the game have changed. For years, military commanders have said that once conditions on the ground improve then troops can start to pull back.
Today, Gen. Petraeus said conditions on the ground have improved, but you know what? The troops have to stay. I think if I was the mother or father of the one of the soldiers serving in Iraq, I would be proud because he said they've achieved tremendous successes; I would also be upset that if I listened to him would say they have to stay will in order to maintain that success.
Watch it:
On the Senate floor today, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) said that "one of the things that we will be debating this fall, Mr. President, is whether our troops need to be in Iraq for another 50 or 100 years." Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) immediately took issue with Reid's comment, saying "of course no one has said that." "That's a swipe at Senator McCain" and "a deliberate misrepresentation of what he has said," which was "about troop deployments overseas, not the continued engagement in warfare." Watch it:
But, as ABC News's Jake Tapper points out on his blog, "Reid's description was completely accurate: McCain said it would be fine with him if US troops were in Iraq indefinitely." As Tapper puts it, "Republicans are trying to use the media condemnation" of some of the ways McCain's remarks have been framed as "a blanket condemnation of any time anyone quotes McCain on the matter."
Today's Center for Budget Policies and Priorities report on national income inequality throws a curve ball to the administration's claim that "the fundamentals of the economy are still pretty strong." In a state-by-state study examining data over the past two business cycles, the CBPP concludes that the income gap between America's richest income families has America's poorest and middle-income families has increased substantially. Some key highlights:
– On average, incomes have declined by 2.5 percent among the bottom fifth of families since the late 1990s, while increasing by 9.1 percent among the top fifth.
–In 19 states, average incomes have grown more quickly among the top fifth of families than among the bottom fifth since the late 1990s. In no state has the bottom fifth grown significantly faster than the top fifth.
– For very high-income families — the richest 5 percent — income growth since the late 1990s has been especially dramatic, and much faster than among the poorest fifth of families.
–On average, incomes have grown by just 1.3 percent among the middle fifth of families since the late 1990s, well below the 9.1 percent gain among the top fifth. Income disparities between the top and middle fifths have increased significantly in Alabama, California, Florida, Illinois, Mississippi, Missouri, New Mexico, and Texas. Income disparities did not decline significantly in any state.
The most interesting part of the report, however, outlines WHY inequality has risen so much in the last two decades:
Government Inaction: Deregulation, lack of laws protecting collective bargaining, the declining value of the minimum wage, and most notably, "changes in federal, state, and local tax structures and benefit programs have, in many cases, accelerated the trend toward growing inequality emerging from the labor market." Economist's View notes that "there was time to find a way to share the gains from the boom across a wider swath of the population – but the administration and congress, a congress that was controlled by Republicans for most of this time period, had no desire to do so."
Investment income: Capital gains, Wall Street investments, and huge increases in corporate profits and CEO pay has contributed to growing inequality by boosting investors' incomes.
Wage Inequality: Weak unions, shrinking manufacturing jobs, and stagnant wages at the bottom of the pay-scale are eroding opportunities for "workers with less than a college education, who make up approximately the lowest-earning 70 percent of the workforce."
But why does income inequality matter? Besides the fact that unequal societies have tended to shortchange basic education and engage in politically corrupt practices, inequality matters because it decreases long-term innovation, productivity, and national wealth.
In November, President Bush and Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki issued a "Declaration of Principles for a Long-Term Relationship of Cooperation and Friendship." Recently, the Bush administration has refused to say whether it believes there is "a constitutional requirement" for the White House to "consult with Congress…in the commitment of U.S. forces in a battle zone."
Yesterday, Ambassador Ryan Crocker stated that the status of force agreement (SOFA) would be negotiated with Iraq as an "executive agreement," which he said did not require congressional approval. Crocker also said that the Iraqi government may submit the agreement to its parliament, while the White House refused to do the same for Congress.
During today's White House briefing, Press Secretary Dana Perino reiterated that, regardless of what the Iraqi parliament might do, the U.S. Congress would be shut out of its advise and consent role:
PERINO: An executive agreement like this isn't something that is subject to a yes-or-no by the United States Senate. Other countries, under their constitutions, may have that type of rule, but we don't. But that doesn't mean we're not going to work very closely with Congress.
QUESTION: (inaudible) make an end-run around the…
PERINO: No, it's not.
QUESTION: Well, why can't you submit it to Congress?
PERINO: I just explained why.
Watch it:
In fact, there is nothing precluding the White House from submitting the agreement to Congress. Indeed, as Sen. Edward Kennedy (D-MA) pointed out yesterday, negotiating such a treaty without Senate approval would represent a break from past practice. In 1951, for example, the Senate ratified a U.S./NATO SOFA to preside over the hundreds of thousands of U.S. forces stationed in over 40 countries, including Germany and Japan.
Conservative columnist George Will wrote recently, "Hundreds of such agreements, major (e.g., NATO) and minor (the Reagan administration's security commitment to the Marshall Islands and Micronesia), have been submitted to Congress."
Today, the National Lawyers Guild — the "oldest and largest public interest/human rights bar organization in the United States" — called on Berkeley's law school, Boalt Hall, to dismiss former Bush administration John Yoo, who is a law professor there. From the Guild's statement:
In a memorandum written the same month George W. Bush invaded Iraq, Boalt Hall law professor John Yoo said the Department of Justice would construe US criminal laws not to apply to the President's detention and interrogation of enemy combatants. According to Yoo, the federal statutes against torture, assault, maiming and stalking do not apply to the military in the conduct of the war. [...]
"John Yoo's complicity in establishing the policy that led to the torture of prisoners constitutes a war crime under the US War Crimes Act," said National Lawyers Guild President Marjorie Cohn.
Congress should repeal the provision of the Military Commissions Act that would give Yoo immunity from prosecution for torture committed from September 11, 2001 to December 30, 2005. John Yoo should be disbarred and he should not be retained as a professor of law at one of the country's premier law schools. John Yoo should be dismissed from Boalt Hall and tried as a war criminal.
This is a pretty striking trend. Politically, it's a bit tricky since the salient trend is the dramatic narrowing of the better/worse gap, but the betters still outnumber the worses. You want to tap into the sentiments of the growing "worse" bloc, but still can't let that kind of sentiment dominate what you're saying since there are all these "betters" out there still.
Last week, Rep. Robert Wexler (D-FL) sent an e-mail to his constituents asking them to submit questions for him to ask Gen. David Petraeus. Today, he summarized the 5,000 submitted questions for Petreaues: "What is the definition of winning?" He also admonished Petraeus for refusing to define success:
And if I will, when Mr. Burton asks for a definition of what is failure, we get a litany of items. But when Mr. Ackerman asks what's the definition of victory, we get little. Please tell us, general, what is winning?
Watch it:
Max Bergmann at Democracy Arsenal wrote yesterday, "Petraeus and Crocker have no problems projecting out the potential implications of leaving Iraq — but they refuse to make projections of what staying will look like. That double standard is absurd. Is there a strategic plan for our presence in Iraq? If so what? The answer is pretty clearly no. They have no end game. There is no exit strategy."

Myanmar leader to visit Britain for reform talks
LONDON, June 21 — Myanmar President Thein Sein will come to London in the coming months to hold talks with British Prime Minister David Cameron, as the once pariah Asian state edges its way back into the international fold.
The announcement today came hours before Cameron was due to meet Aung San Suu Kyi, Myanmar's Nobel laureate who spent 15 years under house arrest as she fought to bring democracy to her country.
Thein Sein is head of a quasi-civilian government which in 2010 replaced a military junta he was part of. He has sought to end decades of international isolation by reforming Myanmar's once-oppressive political system and struggling economy.
"The prime minister has invited President Thein Sein," a spokeswoman for Cameron told reporters.
"He is due to visit the UK in the coming months to continue the discussions they began when the prime minister was in Burma in April. Those discussions obviously focused on further reform."
Britain still calls its former colony Burma.
After meeting Cameron, Suu Kyi will address both houses of parliament today as part of a high-profile and emotional return to Britain, where she lived with her family for many years before she returned home in 1988 to care for her mother and took up her fight for democracy.
When she was placed under house by the military dictatorship, her struggle was catapulted on to the world stage, and she was released last year as part of Sein's political reforms.
"The progress we have seen in Burma is testament to the bravery and vision shown by Aung San Suu Kyi and President Thein Sein. They have embarked on a process of reform that could bring genuine democracy to Burma," British Foreign Secretary William Hague said today.
"The fact that Aung San Suu Kyi now feels able to leave Burma and return to the UK for the first time since 1988 is a signal to the world of how much the situation in Burma has changed."
Cameron's visit to Myanmar in April, the first by a Western leader in decades, sent a strong signal that the international community was prepared to welcome the Southeast Asian nation back in from the cold.
Sein has surprised Western leaders with his appetite for reform ahead of elections in 2015. On Tuesday, he announced a second wave of measures for the economy, including tentative privatisation and a law on the minimum wage. — Reuters

Premenstrual dysphoric disorder as a correlate of suicidal ideation, plans, and attempts among a nationally representative sample
Social Psychiatry and Psychiatric Epidemiology, 07/05/2012
Pilver CE et al. – Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD) was strongly and independently associated with non–fatal suicidal behaviors among a nationally representative sample. These findings suggest that clinicians treating women with PMDD should assess and be vigilant for signs of non–fatal suicidal behavior, and that clinicians should evaluate and treat the premenstrual symptoms of women who express these behaviors.

Dear Sirs: The award winning, nonprofit Instituteof Consumer Financial Education (ICFE) believe the annual free credit reports now mandated under FACTA SHOULD INCLUDE the credit score. for free, since the score is an automated derivation and is, for most intents and purposes, the actual "end product". Understanding how one's credit score is calculated is a great need on the part of the American public. Charging a fee for the credit score strikes us as contrary to the concept of consumer empowerment that the free annual credit report was supposed to expedite. To summarize, we recommend that FACTA regulations allow consumers to access their credit scores for FREE, along with their annual free credit reports from each bureau. Respectfully submitted; Paul Richard, RFC Executive Director Institute of Consumer Financial Education PO Box 34070 San Diego, CA 92163 619-239-1401 www.icfe.info n
