Obama goes round two with Boehner, this time on highway bill
By Amie Parnes
President Obama on Monday slammed Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) and the House Republican leadership for the second time in a week.
Obama’s latest attack on Boehner is over construction projects, which the president says have been blocked by Republicans who have refused to take up a long-term highway bill approved in a bipartisan vote by the Senate.
The president said the stalled legislation is keeping millions of workers jobless, and is preventing necessary projects forward across the country, including in Boehner’s own district.
“There are bridges between Kentucky and Ohio where some of the key Republican leadership come from, where folks are having to do detours an extra hour and half drive every day on their commute because these bridges don’t work,” Obama said in a speech to the Building and Construction Trades Department Legislative Conference in Washington. “Time after time, the Republicans have gotten together and they’ve said no,” he said.
EPA official resigns over ‘crucify’ comments
By Ben Geman
Al Armendariz, the Environmental Protection Agency official under fire for comparing enforcement of environmental laws to crucifixion, has resigned.
“Over the weekend Dr. Armendariz offered his resignation, which I accepted. I respect the difficult decision he made and his wish to avoid distracting from the important work of the agency. We are all grateful for Dr. Armendariz’s service to EPA and to our nation,” said EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson in a statement Monday.
The decision comes days after Armendariz – who oversaw oil-and-gas producing states including Texas and Louisiana – drew GOP attacks over 2010 comments that surfaced in which he compared his enforcement strategy to the way ancient Roman conquerors would use terror to keep order.
A number of GOP lawmakers, shortly after the 2010 comments surfaced last week, called for his ouster despite his apology for the remarks.
Obama says he hasn’t spiked football to mark bin Laden death
By Amie Parnes
Responding to GOP criticism of “spiking the football” on the anniversary of Osama bin Laden’s death, President Obama said Monday there hasn’t been “any excessive celebration” by his administration.
Speaking to reporters a day before the one-year anniversary, Obama took issue with the notion that his administration has tried to politicize the issue.
“I hardly think you’ve seen any excessive celebration taking place here,” Obama said at a press conference with Japanese Prime Minister Noda.
“I think the American people remember rightly what we as a country accomplished in bringing to justice someone who killed 3,000 of our citizens.”
Egypt tries to defuse tension with Saudi Arabia
By Shaimaa Fayed
REUTERS / CAIRO
An Egyptian government minister said a rare rift with Saudi Arabia would be resolved after Riyadh recalled its Cairo ambassador in response to street protests there against the arrest of an Egyptian lawyer in the Gulf kingdom.
Demonstrations against Saudi Arabia’s arrest of Egyptian lawyer Ahmed el-Gezawi on April 17 have grown in recent days, culminating in a rally of almost 1,000 people at the Saudi embassy on Friday who hurled insults at the kingdom’s rulers.
“The current crisis between Egypt and Saudi Arabia will be contained, given the solid relations between the two countries which transcend any problem,” Planning and International Cooperation Minister Faiza Abu el-Naga was quoted by the state news agency MENA as saying.
She said the spat would not affect Gulf economic aid to Egypt and that Saudi officials had denied withdrawing any investments.
Egypt’s MPs deny existence of sex-after-death law, confirm early marriage draft
By Al Arabiya
Members of the Egyptian parliament responded to the uproar caused by Egyptian and Arab media reports about a new law that would allow a husband to have sex with his dead wife within six hours after her death and denied existence of any such draft.
“This is indecent and nonsense. The whole issue is unacceptable. It is even unacceptable to give any statement to media about this issue,” Islamist MP Mamdouh Ismail told Al Arabiya.
The news about passing the so-called ‘Farewell Intercourse’ law by the country’s Islamist-dominated parliament was first reported by Egyptian state-run al-Ahram newspaper and Egyptian ON TV on Tuesday. It was picked up and analyzed by Al Arabiya English a day later, following which international media picked up the story.
The People’s Assembly Secretary General, Samy Mahran, denied to Al Arabiya the existence of such draft law. “I have never heard of anything in this regard,” he said.
Egyptian MP Hisham Ahmed Hanafi told the London-based Asharq al-Awsat on Saturday that “such reports are completely false and aim mainly to deform the image of the Egyptian parliament.”
Egyptian Islamist MP Ashraf Agour of the Construction and Development Party also denied the reports and said that “the issue has never been discussed in the parliament,” according to Asharq al-Awsat.
However, MP Amin Eskandar of al-Karama Party said that “the general atmosphere in the Egyptian parliament is vulnerable to such kinds of rumors.” He did confirm the presence of a draft law for early marriage that would permit girls to get married at the age of 14 instead of 18.
US Using Staged “Blind Activist” Stunt For Leverage Ahead of Talks
Reuters Cites US-Funded Front in Chinese “Blind Activist” Case.
by Tony Cartalucci
April 30, 2012 - Reuters has recently reported in their article, “U.S. eyes testy China talks, Chen backer expects Chinese decision,” that “religious and political rights advocacy group ChinaAid is the chief source of information about Chen,” referring to Chen Guangcheng, the “blind activist” who has allegedly escaped from house arrest recently and who “activists” claim is being harbored by the United States in their embassy in Beijing.
Image: ChinaAid is funded by the US State Department through its National Endowment for Democracy front, and has become the primary source regarding the “blind activist” case – providing yet another example of how compromised Western media and its sources are.
While Reuters alludes to the fact that ChinaAid is “US-based,” it fails to mention that it is in fact funded by the US State Department through its National Endowment for Democracy (NED) front. Democracy Digest, NED’s own publication reported in 2011 in their article titled, “‘Extraordinary’ campaign for barefoot lawyer Chen Guangcheng,” that:
”Chen Guangcheng was a recipient in absentia of the National Endowment for Democracy‘s 2008 Democracy Award. ChinaAid and China Digitial Times are NED grantees.”

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
With his new study, “Dr. Zijlstra’s Final Settlement: Gold as the Monetary Cosmos’ Sun,” appended here, our good friend the Netherlands economist Jaco Schipper of MarketUpdate.nl today adds substantially to the growing documentation of the Western central bank gold price suppression scheme.
Zijlstra is the late Dutch treasurer, prime minister, and central banker Jelle Zijlstra, in whose memoirs Schipper has found confirmations of that scheme, including a confirmation involving former Federal Reserve Chairman Paul Volcker, whose involvement in gold price suppression often has been noted by GATA:
Zijlstra knew what he was writing about, as he served not only as president of its central bank but also, simultaneously until his retirement in 1981, as president of the Bank for International Settlements, where gold price suppression long has been a primary function:
As noted by Schipper, in his memoirs Zijlstra recounts repeated efforts by the U.S. government to discourage the use of gold as a measure of currency values and writes, “Gold is artificially kept at a far too low price.”
Schipper also calls attention to Zijlstra’s notation that central banks had begun to count as an asset not only gold but “an asset on an equal footing,” apparently some claim to gold not quite in a central bank’s own possession, perhaps the original form of the somewhat mysterious “gold receivables” that now reside on the books of many central banks, mechanisms of imaginary inflation of official gold reserves.
We welcome Zijlstra, if only posthumously, to the ranks of gold “conspiracy theorists,” and will have a tin-foil hat engraved in his honor.

With Spain In Recession, S&P Cuts Banks Like Santander, BBVA
Steve Schaefer, Forbes Staff
There was more disappointing news out of the eurozone Monday, with Spanish GDP contracting for the second consecutive quarter and a round of ratings downgrades for the country’s banks.
Monday’s reading on economic growth showed Spain’s economy shrunk 0.3% in the first quarter, slightly better than the 0.4% decline anticipated but enough to mark a technical recession, or two straight quarters of negative growth. The news comes after S&P cut the country’s sovereign credit rating two notches to BBB+ Friday.
Wars and Rumors of War
U.S. officials continue to shift focus from al Qaeda to ‘home-grown extremists’
Iran and Obama’s Syria Hesitation
By John Bolton
Despite months of negotiations by former United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Annan and extensive Security Council deliberations, hostilities in Syria continue. Although overall violence is down slightly and the council has increased U.N. observers to 300, the civilian death toll continues to rise. Syria’s dictatorship ignores Mr. Annan’s “cease fire,” and Bashar al-Assad himself shows no signs of stepping down.
President Obama seems paralyzed for two basic reasons: First, he is committed to a U.N. process almost certainly doomed to failure; and second, he fears taking on the real nemesis in Syria, namely Iran’s ayatollahs.
The decision to deploy additional military observers was a positive step but the existing observers have hardly displayed much initiative. They have, for instance, declined to monitor anti-Assad demonstrations to avoid, they said, making their mission part of the dispute. One might confuse this with satire were the consequences not so grave.
Israel challenges Egypt over Sinai security chaos
Egypt must take control of the rising unrest which is sweeping through the Sinai Peninsula if it wants to preserve the peace with Israel, Defense Minister Ehud Barak said late on Monday.
“We urge Egypt to contain the lawlessness in the Sinai Peninsula — this is imperative in order to keep our two nations firmly on the path of peace,” the Israeli minister told reporters at a meeting of the Foreign Press Association in Jerusalem.
Israel has repeatedly raised the alarm over the growing wave of lawlessness in the Sinai which has spiraled since the revolution which overthrew Egyptian president Hosni Mubarak in February 2011.

CNBC Anchor and CFR Member Erin Burnett Pushes Her Bankster Master’s Agenda: What if We BANNED Cash?
“We wonder, what if we got rid of cash? After all, cash is what keeps terrorists, drug dealers and gun dealers in business.” – Erin Burnett
As I outlined in my recent article, ‘Stumbling Blocks to ‘Global Governance in a Changing World‘, mere “human resources” like us can get an insider’s look at the very real problems plaguing the folks that seek to enslave the world by tuning into the CFR’s own You Tube channel, where they regularly discuss these issues. Now we can get some of that CFR spin on CNBC too.
CNBC’s Erin Burnett is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations, as is NBC’s Brian Williams and many other public figures. And each does their best to toe the line for their Bankster Oligarch masters, helmed by the Sith Lord himself, David Rockefeller.
In this clip, Burnett excitedly promotes the NWO plan of killing physical money through her “interview” with former Israeli Ministry of Defense consultant Jonathan Lipow who demonizes cash in a NY Times article only Edward Bernays could love titled ‘Turn in Your Bin Ladens’.
Burnett asks: “So your solution is let’s get rid of the cash and that would cut off a lot of the illicit activity out there, and certainly a lot of the funding for terrorists.”
Terrorist Plots, Hatched by the F.B.I.
By DAVID K. SHIPLER
THE United States has been narrowly saved from lethal terrorist plots in recent years — or so it has seemed. A would-be suicide bomber was intercepted on his way to the Capitol; a scheme to bomb synagogues and shoot Stinger missiles at military aircraft was developed by men in Newburgh, N.Y.; and a fanciful idea to fly explosive-laden model planes into the Pentagon and the Capitol was hatched in Massachusetts.
But all these dramas were facilitated by the F.B.I., whose undercover agents and informers posed as terrorists offering a dummy missile, fake C-4 explosives, a disarmed suicide vest and rudimentary training. Suspects naïvely played their parts until they were arrested.
When an Oregon college student, Mohamed Osman Mohamud, thought of using a car bomb to attack a festive Christmas-tree lighting ceremony in Portland, the F.B.I. provided a van loaded with six 55-gallon drums of “inert material,” harmless blasting caps, a detonator cord and a gallon of diesel fuel to make the van smell flammable. An undercover F.B.I. agent even did the driving, with Mr. Mohamud in the passenger seat. To trigger the bomb the student punched a number into a cellphone and got no boom, only a bust.
German analysts say new North Korea missiles are fakes
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – German analysts who have studied photos of six new North Korean missiles unveiled at a military parade in Pyongyang this month have concluded that they were low-quality fakes.
German missile engineers Markus Schiller and Robert Schmucker of Schmucker Technologie said their findings cast doubt on the impoverished Communist state’s claims of military strength.
“For now, the ICBM (intercontinental ballistic missile) presentation was nothing else than a nice dog and pony show,” they wrote in an April 18 analysis posted online at Arms Control Wonk http://lewis.armscontrolwonk.com/files/2012/04/KN-08_Analysis_Schiller_Schmucker.pdf.
The weapons were displayed at an April 15 parade before North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, two days after a failed attempt by the country to launch a long-range missile.
The German missile engineers said the missiles seemed to be a mix of liquid- and solid-fuel parts that could not work together.
Each of the six missiles, designated KN-08 by Western analysts, was slightly different and did not fit the big new eight-axle mobile launchers they were carried on, Schiller and Schmucker wrote.
Julian Assange’s The World Tomorrow: Moncef Marzouki (E3)
Published on May 1, 2012 by RussiaToday
In the third episode of The World Tomorrow Julian Assange speaks with Tunisia’s first post-revolution leader Moncef Marzouki about the West’s double standards in protecting human rights. He is a former human rights activist. During the reign of the previous President he was imprisoned and kept in solitary confinement, which he considers to be torture. Once elected Head of State, he has vowed to put an end to human rights violations in Tunisia.
Marzouki recalls how he was invited to the US to talk about the human rights situation in Tunisia with a man he believed was involved in the Guantanamo controversy. Torture and the West’s double standards on the issue is indeed one of the hottest topics in this episode of the show.

Question: Describe a pivotal relationship in a written text you have studied. Explain why the relationship was pivotal.
Greed will skew the weak minded and destroy meaningful relationships. Greed is the most fatal flaw of man is the one thing holding back the advancement of mankind. We see this in George Orwell’s novel animal farm, where the character Napoleon is plagued by greed. Throughout the novel we have multiple instances of Napoleons greed hindering the animal’s revolution.
After overthrowing Mr Jones and getting the farm to themselves, the animals reap the leftover yields of the cows and apple trees. There is leftover milk and apples for the animals to divvy up. When they came back from work, they notice the milk and apples went missing. “But when the animals come back, the apples and milk are gone.” George Orwell hints to us that the pigs had eaten the apples and milk for themselves. Their greed had taken away the other animals’ fair shares. This hurts the integrity of the revolution because every animal is supposed to be equal, but greed had skewed that right from the beginning. Napoleons relationship with greed was pivotal because greed was the thing that destroyed the revolution.
After taking to Mr Jones house, the Pigs quickly discover a massive keg of beer. Napoleon claims most of it for himself and gets super drunk. His hangover leads the animals to believe that he is dying and as such they add a commandment that states, “No animal is to drink alcohol.” Napoleon realises that his hangover is not fatal and sends squealer to once again change the commandments. “The animals walk in to see Squealer painting on the wall of commandments.” This quote shows that Napoleons greed for alcohol drives him to change the fundamental laws of the farm like it is nothing. Napoleons relationship with greed is pivotal because greed allows Napoleon to do stuff against the best interest of the farm.
The first windmill proposed by snowball was meant for improving the living conditions and comfort of the animals. Napoleon instead uses it to mill corn for more profits to go to more beer. Napoleon says, “we will use this windmill to mill corn” Because of this, the animals miss out on the luxuries promised to them by snowball. Greed drove Napoleon to sacrifice the comfort of the animals for his own sake. Napoleons relationship with greed is pivotal because Napoleons greed hinders all of the animals.

215w ago - Electronic Arts Product Marketing Manager Brent Dady has announced today that Brütal Legend's Tears of the Hextadon DLC is launching for free on PSN.
To quote: Now that Rocktober of the year of our metal Lords 2009 is coming to a close, we at Double Fine Productions and Electronic Arts are taking the time to reflect back upon a pretty eventful year.
Here are just a select few of the very many Brütal Legend highlights that have lodged into my memory banks:
1. Jack Black, Tim Schafer, and Rob Halford unveiling Brütal's gameplay for the first time to the coalition of the willing PS3 gamers at the Spike VGAs.
2. E3 - staying up until 9am the day of the show loading builds (I may have never recovered from this all year), live Twitter chats, a banner 1/3 the size of a football field, debuting our talent trailer, the coalition of the unwilling finds its leader. Pandemonium!
3. Comic-con - the infamous Brütal Legend concert featuring 3 Inches of Blood and GWAR.
4. Wherein Tim Schafer tries to solve a Rubik's Cube in the time that it takes Emily Ridgway, Double Fine's audio director, to recite the bands and titles of the 108 songs off of the (I would say EPIC) Brütal soundtrack.
221w ago - According to JoyStiq, Best Buy's bonus for pre-ordering Brütal Legend by October 13th includes a Brütal Legend LP sleeve (pictured below).
Aside from displaying artwork, the sleeve serves as a holder for the game disc itself.
In related news, EA's Tim Schaffer has announced that a Brutal Legend demo will be hitting PlayStation Network (and Xbox Live Marketplace) this week- specifically on Septmeber 17, 2009.
Finally, Electronic Arts has released an opening cinematic intro video today. The opening cinematic sets up the story for the game and gives us some insight into story protagonist, Eddie Riggs (voiced by Jack Black). Check it out below!
Brutal Legend is due out in North America on October 13th for the Xbox 360 and PS3.
247w ago - While the God of War franchise has traditionally been a particularly brutal series, the developers claim God of War III will push the boundaries to the limit.
When showing off the game most recently, the developers over at Santa Monica's studio told viewers that "Some of these scenes are so violent, they are never going on the internet - at least, not by us. They're just not appropriate for some audiences."
Sony Santa Monica recently showed off God of War III's new 'Zipper Technology', a feature the developers had long wanted to include but never had the power to do so - until they had the PS3. The feature allows enemies' skin to slice open realistically, allowing for internal organs to spill out depending on the severity of the cut.
The Official PlayStation Magazine talks explicitly about seeing Kratos gutting a centaur, with the stomach, guts, and internal intestines oozing out of the wailing beast.
Just hearing that makes me squeamish. Has God of War III gone to far? Is that even possible? God of War III is due out in the fiscal year of 2009, exclusively for the PS3.

Thiruvananthapuram: Women in Cinema Collective (WCC) demanded the release of the Hema Committee Report after minister Saji Cheriyan's comments on Wednesday. Minister has slammed those who demanded the release of the report. WCC added that the meeting with the state government was a failure.
WCC demanded the state government must reveal their stand on the matter. The report was prepared after putting up a lot of effort and time. The report should be made public without losing confidential aspects of certain information on the report.
Minister Saji Cheriyan had dismissed the demand for the report to be made public. He pointed out that even Justice Hema objected to its release.

As more residents have been forced to work from home, their needs have evolved. Residents now require in-home offices, or study nooks and/or socially-distanced workspaces within their communities. While multifamily is beginning to respond to those needs, new construction and retrofit projects aren’t completed overnight.
Multifamily Budget Busters: Hidden Line Items That Put You in The Red
This year, budget planning could have been particularly painful. Thanks to the pandemic, property managers have seen revenues decline while simultaneously incurring unanticipated expenses. Generally speaking, 2020 has done a number on most companies’ financials.
Seemingly Small Resident Services with the Biggest Impact
It’s often the attention to the little things that keeps everything on an even keel at apartment communities. Residents depend on seemingly minor conveniences to help them stick to their daily routines. They build dependencies on those services that have been ingrained into our daily structure.

What are the Differences Between Tyrannosaurus and Tarbosaurus?
A more subtle difference is the shape of the lacrimal bone, which made up the front part of the eye socket and was also part of the dinosaur’s skull ornamentation. In Tyrannosaurus rex, the top portion of the lacrimal has a concave shape, but in Tarbosaurus bataar the same portion of bone is domed.
“Tarbosaurus bataar is in a sense the Asian version of the Tyrannosaurus rex, they are close cousins,” said Lawrence Witmer, an anatomist and paleontologist at Ohio University.
Both had powerful jaws and teeth, big back legs and tiny arms, although Tarbosaurus had arms that were even smaller than those of T. rex, according to Philip Currie, a paleontologist at the University of Alberta.
The largest Tyrannosaurus found measured about 45 feet (14 meters) long, while the largest Tarbosaurus measured about 40 feet (12 meters) long, Currie told LiveScience in an email. “But there is always the possibility that bigger specimens will eventually be found for one or both.”
While clearly identifiable, tarbosaurs have only been found in a roughly 70-million-year-old rock formation in Mongolia, Tyrannosaurus rex remains have turned up in many fossil beds in North America. Both were apex predators, meaning they were at the top of the food chain, and, thanks to their lineage, both are considered tyrannosaurs.

Michael Jordan Averages 32.5 Points Per Game, Winning the MVP Award and Defensive Player of the Year
Jordan led the league in scoring again in the 1987–88 season, averaging 35.0 ppg on 53.5% shooting and won his first league MVP award.
He was also named the Defensive Player of the Year, as he had averaged 1.6 blocks and a league high 3.16 steals per game. The Bulls finished 50–32, and made it out of the first round of the playoffs for the first time in Jordan's career, as they defeated the Cleveland Cavaliers in five games. However, the Bulls then lost in five games to the more experienced Detroit Pistons, who were led by Isiah Thomas and a group of physical players known as the "Bad Boys".

DOVER, Del. (AP) — Martin Truex Jr. can scratch his team owner off the potential list of 2014 sponsors.
Michael Waltrip Racing co-owner Rob Kauffman all but ruled out that he would fund the sponsor-strapped driver. NAPA Auto Parts announced early this month it was ending its multimillion-dollar sponsorship of MWR at the end of the year in the wake of the Richmond cheating scandal. Truex, who was stripped of his Chase spot, faces an uncertain future as he scrambles to find a new deal.
"I would say that's a relatively low probability," of sponsoring Truex, Kauffman said. "We could fill in a gap. We're working on all kinds of options."
Furniture Row Racing is in the mix for Truex after losing Kurt Busch to Stewart-Haas Racing. General manager Joe Garone said at Dover the organization had expressed interest in the veteran driver.
Kauffman, founder of the Fortress Investment Group and a racing enthusiast, saved MWR in 2007 when he bought into the organization and pumped in the cash Waltrip needed to stay afloat. Kauffman has answered the call at every level of Waltrip's plan to grow the organization into one of NASCAR's top teams.
Kauffman also founded RK Motors, which restores classic cars, and has stepped in to fill occasional sponsorship holes in the past. He was at Dover Sunday and a NASCAR track for the first time since the scandal hit. He returned from overseas to get MWR reorganized.
"The team made mistakes," he said. "We made a lot of progress with Michael Waltrip Racing the past seven years. It's obviously a big setback. We've paid a heavy price. Now, I'm focused on what do we need to change to improve."

My main project has been Kaori, a pre-existing Discord chatbot that I developed using GPT-3.5. I embarked on a mission to enhance her capabilities, and I'm proud to say I've made significant strides. Kaori now goes beyond simply chatting - she can assign and manage roles on Discord, all on her own!
I owe a great deal of this progress to the Chat GPT code interpreter. It's been a crucial tool in my journey, and I'm looking forward to discovering what more I can learn and achieve moving forward.
Last weekend, Quentin and I did the best thing of 2023. We went and saw both Barbie and Oppenheimer on the same day and it was truly epic!
We went an saw Barbie during the day and it was suspiciously quiet???
Quentin loved Barbie so much that he said that he wasn’t excited for Oppenheimer anymore; because he was sure it couldn’t be better than Barbie.
My main event of the night truly was Oppenheimer, I was hyped for this movie ever since I saw a trailer months ago at the cinema. I got cozy and the theatre was truly PACKED. Not a single seat was empty lmao.
It was such a great movie, and kept my full attention the entire 3 hours, I also came home with a slight obsession over Cillian Murphy lol. :33
Thank you for reading! Feel free to add a comment below.

Austrian finance minister Maria Fekter called on Strauss-Kahn, 62, to consider his position. Her Spanish counterpart, Elena Salgado, spoke out in support for the hotel maid he is alleged to have sexually assaulted.
The IMF chief is being kept in isolation at the notorious Rikers Island prison after he was refused bail at Manhattan Criminal Court yesterday, despite his wife Anne Sinclair offering $1 million bail.
Strauss-Kahn, a favourite for France's 2012 presidential election, faces up to 25 years in prison if convicted of attempted rape, sexual abuse and a criminal sex act. He is due back in court on Friday.
The maid, 32, accused Strauss-Kahn of trying to rape her at the Sofitel hotel in New York on Saturday. Her family said today that she is "in pain".
The 32-year-old woman has accused Dominique Strauss-Kahn of attempting to rape her at the five-star Sofitel hotel in New York on Saturday.
Her older brother said she is still suffering after the alleged attack. Speaking to the New York Times, he said: "She's a wonderful, hard-working woman, that's why she's in pain."
The man, who manages a restaurant in Manhattan, added that he and the victim's daughter were the only family she had in America. His sister was resting in a secure location and "is coming back normally" with the help of her lawyer, he added.
The woman is reported to be an immigrant from Guinea in West Africa and raising a 16-year-old daughter alone in a poor part of the Bronx.
Strauss-Kahn, 62, was yesterday refused bail at the Manhattan Criminal Court despite his wife Anne Sinclair offering to put up $1 million bail after judge Melissa Jackson deemed he was at risk of fleeing. The IMF chief, widely tipped as a contender for the French presidency, was remanded in custody at the notorious Rikers Island prison.
Strauss-Kahn faces several charges of sex assault, including attempted rape, sexual abuse and a criminal sex act. He faces up to 25 years in prison if convicted and is due back in court on Friday to learn if he faces a grand jury indictment.
The politician's arrest has provoked fury in France with the Socialist party attacking the US for broadcasting images of his court appearance.
Before an emergency meeting in Paris, party leader Martine Aubry said: "I'm amazed because it's incredible. I'm stupefied, shocked by these images. In France we should not have seen these images of the hearing.
"We were shocked by what we heard, by what we saw, for Dominique and his family, and for this young woman, who we must not forget." She added: 'There will certainly be one victim - the young woman if the facts are proved or Dominique if he is innocent."
Former culture and education minister Jack Lang called on Ms Aubry to confirm Strauss-Kahn as a potential presidential candidate, and attacked US justice as "an inhuman system that grinds up those who fall into its hands". Strauss-Kahn's alleged victim has claimed that when she entered his suite to clean it on Saturday afternoon, he emerged naked from the bathroom and chased her down a hall before pulling her back inside.
The maid claims she fought him off before he dragged her into the bathroom and forced her to perform oral sex. She broke free as he tried to remove her underwear.
French author Tristane Banon, 31, has also accused Strauss-Khan of trying to rape her a decade ago.

At Oakton Animal Hospital we have been offering quality, laser surgery since 1999. In fact, we were recognized by the Daily Herald as one of the first veterinary hospitals in the northwest suburbs to incorporate laser surgery into our practice. Laser surgery is preferable to traditional surgery, performed with a scalpel, because it is much less painful. Patients experience less pain, less bleeding, and less swelling than with conventional surgery. In turn, this leads to your pet's faster recovery and return to normal activity. Long before laser surgery was "en vogue" our doctors recognized the importance of minimizing your pet's discomfort during surgery and have been utilizing laser surgery whenever possible ever since. Ask us whether your pet's surgery can be performed utilizing this state-of-the-art technology.

Believe it or not, some litter can worsen your cat’s asthma. If you have a cat who suffers from asthma, then it’s essential to choose the best litter for it. This blog post will discuss the best litter for asthmatic cats and why choosing the right one is important.
What’s cat asthma?
Cat asthma is a chronic condition that affects a cat’s respiratory system. It’s similar to human asthma in that it causes difficulty breathing and can be triggered by allergies, dust, smoke, and even litter.
There is currently no treatment for cat asthma, but you can try some home remedies for cats with asthma to relieve symptoms.
Causes of cat asthma:
There are a few different things that trigger cat asthma. One of the most common triggers is allergies, either to pollen, dust, or even certain litters. Smoke, aerosolization such as cleaning products, and even some perfumes can trigger an asthma attack in cats.
Symptoms of cat asthma:
If your kitty has an asthma attack, you might notice them coughing or wheezing. They may also have difficulty breathing, and their chest may heave with each breath. Some cats may even pant or gulp for air.
Common signs include:
- Coughing (most common sign)
- Difficulty breathing/panting
- Heaving chest
These signs may be intermittent but typically become more frequent and severe over time. If you are concerned about these symptoms and think your cat may have asthma, you must take them to the vet for a diagnosis.
How to Prevent a Cat Asthma Attack
You need to do a few things to help prevent asthma attacks in your cat.
If your cat is sensitive to dust, you must keep the house clean and free of dust accumulations. You should also avoid using perfumes or cleaning products around your cat, as these can trigger an asthma attack. If cigarette smoke triggers, you will need to either stop smoking or keep your cat away from areas where people are smoking.
If your cat has asthma, it’s essential to be aware of its triggers and to do everything you can to avoid them. With the proper precautions, you can help keep your cat comfortable and safe from asthma attacks.
In some cases, medication may be necessary to manage the symptoms of feline asthma. These may include bronchodilators, steroids, or other immunosuppressive drugs. With proper management, most cats with cat asthma can enjoy a long and healthy life.
One of the essential things is to choose suitable litter. Some litters can worsen asthma, so it’s crucial to find one that is dust-free and won’t trigger an attack.
Does cat litter affect asthma?
Yes, litter can affect asthma in cats. Some litters contain high dust levels, which can trigger an asthma attack. Other litters may contain perfumes or chemicals that can trigger an attack.
Suppose your cat has difficulty breathing or you notice other asthma symptoms. In that case, it’s essential to take them to the vet immediately.
Choosing a low-dust and unscented litter is essential to help reduce the risk of an asthma attack.
The best litter for asthmatic cats
Now that we’ve discussed feline asthma and how to prevent attacks, let’s talk about the best litter for cats with asthma.
It would be best to keep a few things in mind when looking for a safe litter for cats with asthma.
- Dust-free formula: A dust-free formula is one of the most important things to look for in a litter for cats with asthma. This will help to prevent asthma attacks and make your cat more comfortable.
- Non-toxic: It’s also important to find a non-toxic litter, as some litter can be harmful to your cat.
- Clumping: Clumping litter is also a good option for asthmatic cats, as it will help reduce the dust in the air.
- Unscented: Some litters contain perfumes or other chemicals that can trigger an asthma attack.
- Soft and absorbent: This will help reduce dust when your cat uses the litter box.
There are a few different litters that are good for asthmatic cats. One option is World’s Best Cat Litter, made from all-natural ingredients and virtually dust-free. Another good option is Feline Pine, which is made from recycled pine and is also dust-free.

Is crystal litter safe for cats with asthma?
There is no definitive answer, as different things may trigger each cat’s asthma. However, many vets recommend avoiding litter with strong perfumes or chemicals, as these can irritate the lungs and exacerbate symptoms. Crystal litter is generally fragrance-free so it may be a good option for asthmatic cats. However, you must consult your veterinarian before changing your cat’s litter.
No matter which litter you choose, make sure to scoop it regularly to reduce the amount of dust in the air. It would be best to keep your cat’s litter box clean and free of waste to help prevent asthma attacks.
You can help keep your asthmatic cat comfortable and safe with suitable litter and careful management.
Additional advice For pet owners with cats that have asthma
The most important advice I can give to other pet owners with asthmatic cats is to have a plan to manage their condition. Develop a specific treatment plan with your veterinarian, including frequent check-ups, medication, and environmental control measures. Keep track of your cat’s symptoms and be prepared to act quickly if they have asthma attacks. Keep a list of emergency contact numbers on hand, and know where the nearest 24-hour animal hospital is. Most importantly, don’t panic – asthmatic cats can live long and happy lives with proper care.
If you’re a cat guardian with an asthmatic kitty, it’s essential to know what kind of litter is out there and which ones will be the best for your feline friend. We hope this article has helped you understand the different types of litter available and how to determine which is best for your cat.
Remember, the litter you choose can make all the difference in your cat’s quality of life. So take your time, research, and consult your veterinarian to find the perfect litter and best food for cats with asthma for your cat.

Today for “Feature Friday” let us welcome the wonderful Lily Luchesi with her book Last Rites, the 5th book in the Paranormal Detectives series.
We will have info about the book and author. Plus we have a interview with Lily and a great excerpt from the book.
Make sure to check everything out and go and show her some love and add her books to your TBR ;)
Happy Reading :)
Power is the deadliest desire. With Leander put to rest and the Paranormal Investigative Division taken care of by the Coven Mistress, Danny and Angelica are finally ready to take some time for themselves while Angelica gets used to her new role as the Empress and they make their relationship official. When people close to Angelica are murdered by what seems to be a rogue vampire, their sabbatical is cut short in order for her to find the perp and execute him or her. But this is no ordinary vampire. When the truth is revealed and secrets come to light, it will prove to be Danny's biggest test of faith yet, and Angelica's reckoning of her past, present, and future. Most of all it will raise a single question: just what makes a monster?
Hello Lily. Thank you for taking the time to stop in and chat with us, it is lovely to have you.
Does writing energize or exhaust you?
Both. It really depends on the scene. If I have a really good action scene I will be bouncing off the walls. However, I have written about abuse and panic attacks, which always leave me exhausted when I’m done. I suffer from multiple forms of mental illness, so writing about the things I experience can be draining. In book four of my Paranormal Detectives Series, Right To Silence, a character is kidnapped and has severe flashbacks that leave her an anxiety-ridden mess. But I love it; the darkness is what I hope makes my characters relatable.
How did publishing your first book change your process of writing?
I learned a lot about editing. I learned that editing as I write decreases the amount of time I have to spend once the first draft is done to self-edit. That’s the most important thing that changed for me. I have a cleaner first draft and can eliminate an extra draft, which frees up two weeks of my time.
What kind of research do you do, and how long do you spend researching before beginning a book?
I am a big fan of “write what you know”. Most of my locations in my Paranormal Detectives Series I have either visited or lived in, except for England. My research could possibly make me wind up in jail one day. A lot of questions about biology related to murder, mostly.
For my upcoming release in December, Never Again, I had to do more research than ever before on WWII, Germany, Judiasm, and what life was like in the 1940s. It was fun but extremely hard to read when it came to some of the actions of the Nazis.
If you didn’t write, what would you do instead? Are there any other talents you are hiding from us?
I would either be a child psychologist or a professional cook. I love psychology and I LOVE food. I have been in the kitchen since I was a toddler and cooking is something I do to relax.
Music is another love of mine, but I have little talent for it.
Do you read your book reviews? How do you deal with bad or good ones?
I only read reviews if the reviewer tells me to go take a look. My ARC readers, also known as my Vamplets, always send me their reviews and I love reading them. They don’t give me all five stars, which is what I love.
Occasionally I will see a not so great review, I have had people write and tell me they couldn’t finish a book, and that’s okay. No piece of art can please everyone. I’m just grateful that I have readers at all!
This was fun, again thank you so much for taking the time to chat. You rock!
“I have watched you for two centuries, unable to approach until your destiny had been fulfilled.” Angelica was dumbstruck. She had known much of this information, how Augustus’ line had gone back to mortality, but he had watched her? Since birth? Stalked her family until the prophecy was fulfilled? “First of all, that was quite creepy of you. Second, why did you wait? It has been three years since I was fully turned. What stayed your hand?” she asked. Drinking from his chalice, he paused. “At first, I lost you after the battle in Scotland. And when I found you again, I could not be seen by Hell’s Lieutenant. I betrayed Lucifer, by accepting his contract and then breaking it with my own immortality. Once you neutralized Leander, I knew I could come to you as I wished, without threat of attack.” That did not sound right. “So again you hid, instead of helping me fight off Hell? Leander has been dead for months. The only sign I received from you was a trail of dead mortals!” He smirked, dark eyes glinting. “You were touted as the best hunter on Earth. I just wanted to see how good you were. I had not expected you to bring me prey.” Angelica shot up from her chair. “Don’t you dare even think about touching Danny!” Emperor or not, all-powerful or not, he could easily be decapitated, and she would not let herself forget that fact. His neck was no more protected than hers. “I have my Consort, and he is being held in your little room up there. If you want any sort of allegiance with me, you will leave him alone. If you even attempt to harm one hair on his head, I will finish the job Livia failed at!” In a flash, faster than even she could perceive, she was pushed up against the wall, next to the painting of Livia. Augustus was holding his hands on either side of her head, leering down at her, eyes so deep she felt as though he could sense her every thought. He was not touching her, yet she had never felt more trapped. Her heart rate increased and she felt her breathing speed up. She was unsure if it was from fear or something else she could not bear to name. Angelica was used to being in complete control, even when facing Hell’s Lieutenant or demonic witches. The only time she ever voluntarily gave up that control was to Danny, whom she trusted implicitly. Here, with Augustus, she felt as though all her control had been shattered. She despised this feeling, but knew she was, at the moment, powerless to stop it. “The fact that you dare to threaten me shows that you are indeed my true Empress. Beautiful, strong, and stubborn.” His voice was a low growl in her ear, and she felt his breath tickling her neck, sending shivers down her spine. His thrall was incredible, and she could not believe that she could also do this with just a few words one day. His voice was silky and dark, undoing her mind there in that comfortable dungeon. She dug her nails into her palms, briefly cutting the skin, grounding her to reality. She must not allow him to glamour her, or else it would be over. “I am not yours,” she spat at him. “I never will be. I don’t give a damn who my ancestor was, that does not predispose me to be your property!” He shook his head. “Oh, my dear, you are not my property. You are my equal. My only equal on this Earth.” That dark part of her mind, the part that had always sought power, was intrigued by the thought that she was the equal of the first true vampire. The rest of her was appalled that he would consider himself equal to her. He lad left a trail of bodies in his wake for miles across Chicago, and Lord only knew how many more in all the long years he’d lived. Any vampire who had to kill for food any time after the nineteenth century was evil, plain and simple. “Do you know why I have to feed so much, so often?” His voice was low, nought but a purr. “It is because none can satisfy me for long aside from my Empress. I have just consumed two large goblets of blood. And yet you can feel, I am much colder than you are, and you have not had blood since you wakened.” He touched her gently, running icy cold fingers along her cheek, down her neck, stopping at her pulse, which quickened at his touch. He was cold, far colder than she had ever been. “That is not true,” she said, barely able to get the words out. “I am fully satisfied by Danny’s blood: one pint, twice a day.” “Liar,” his voice slithered into her ear. “You cannot take that much blood from a mortal daily. He would be dead after a week.” His fingers pressed harder into her throat, and she knew he felt the Undead blood rushing in her veins just as much as she could hear his. “You have no idea what it feels like to be truly sated. Indeed, it has been so long, I almost forgot myself.” Angelica knew what was coming, and she felt him move back, just for a second, giving her enough time to move away from his proximity. If asked, she would say she did not remember why she stayed put, except for the fact that she was genuinely curious about what was going to happen next. With one cold hand, Augustus held her head to the side and sank his fangs deep into her long neck. She felt it all in slow motion: the first initial pain of tearing flesh, the shock of her blood being drawn into another’s body, and the rush of pleasure she received from those two sensations mixed together. She gasped at the sensations, the pleasure-pain. She had never been bitten fully, just a nip here and there from perps trying to take her blood and the powers it held for their own. This was an entirely new sensation rushing in her heart and mind, her body betraying her thoughts. All she wanted was to lose herself in this feeling, but her mind grounded her to the situation, barely. She felt him chuckle against her skin before he pulled his mouth away from her neck, licking the blood that dripped down her creamy flesh. When he faced her, she saw through glazed eyes that her dark blood covered his lips, sending a jolt of heat to her stomach. Traitor, she thought viciously to her body. His hand still held her face, but it was no longer as cold as marble. It was warm, as warm as Danny was when he held her. It was hard to believe that she had done this, that her Undead blood had given life. “Nothing more invigorating than the lifeblood of your soul mate,” he said. “Do you want to know how it feels?” Yes. “No.” He laughed again. “You are not very convincing, Angelica.” He held her at the waist, and his touch was feather light, but with the promise of brute strength there in his lean frame. She knew he could kill her with a look if he wanted to. The idea terrified and thrilled her. He held his other hand up, letting her go for a second to undo the cuffs of his jacket and shirt sleeve, exposing his wrist. Evidently, he did not trust her near his throat. Smart man. “Taste and you will understand,” he said, holding his wrist close to her mouth. Blood was power. His powers lay in what ran through his veins, and he was a fool to offer even a taste of that power to the Empress. Yes, she wanted a taste, but not to feel life. She wanted to feel his power in her veins. Feeling her fangs elongate with little mental encouragement, she leaned forward and placed them over his veins, piercing the skin. She tasted his blood, warmed thanks to her, and it was like electricity and fire, and like the finest wine it sent a warmth throughout her body. However, this was not a new feeling for her. This was how Danny’s blood made her feel every day, every time she tasted him: satisfied and lively. Alive. She moved her mouth from his veins and went to speak, but before she could get a word out, his lips covered hers, mingling their blood together in one incredibly hot kiss. The feeling of tasting her own blood was somewhat uncomfortable, but she could not deny the perverse pleasure she was feeling. It was not unlike how she felt when she kissed Danny after drinking from his veins. Danny! Her mind struggled to get out of the deep thrall Augustus had her under, and she felt her vampire claws dig into his arm, tearing the fabric of his expensive clothes in the process. Growling in pain, he moved back quickly, dark eyes burning red. Just red irises, not like the black and red of a normal vampire. Angelica made a note of that, right before she noted the fact that she was most likely about to be murdered in a second. Surprising her, he simply massaged the wounds that were already healed. His blood dripped from her fingertips, deepening the red of the carpet. “Cunning, using such a physical moment to attack me. You intrigue me, Angelica,” he said, his eyes returning to normal. “You glamour me into being pliant, and yet you call me cunning? You tried to fool the Empress! I might intrigue you, but you impress me,” she replied, maintaining the outward calm and in control appearance she had always found to serve her well. To drive in her blase outer appearance, she licked his blood from her fingertips. He did not respond, and was even so bold as to turn his back on her as he pressed a button in the wall. Not a moment later, the thralled maid came to the dungeon door. “Please escort the Empress to the exit. And make sure you release her...Consort.” If it was possible, he managed to imbue that one word with dripping sarcasm. Angelica arched an eyebrow. “You are releasing us?” “A true Empress cannot also be a captive, and by releasing your little mortal plaything, I believe I can expect a bit more cooperation and camaraderie from you than if I simply drained him to a husk as I would very much like to.” He smirked. “We are not done here, Angelica.” “No, we are not,” she agreed. She turned, but he called her back. “Just one more thing, my dear: at no point since we met have I ever consciously or otherwise tried to glamour you. Indeed, if I tried, I would find myself unsuccessful. Neither of us can put the other in thrall. It is impossible. You cannot glamour your soul mate.”

If anyone deserves our appreciation right now, it’s the hardworking staff at the hospitals around the world. And while medical professionals are on the frontlines, the healthcare staff at a hospital in Spain took a minute to thank those behind the scenes – the cleaning crew.
Barcelona’s Hospital Sant Joan de Deu posted a video on Twitter showing grateful doctors and nurses thanking the cleaning crew and other staff with a round of applause for their hard work during the coronavirus outbreak.
“Today we want to thank the cleaning, security, kitchen, infrastructures staff, that is, all non-healthcare professionals who continue to perform their tasks in exceptional circumstances due to COVID-19,” the hospital tweeted.

On Friday, Disney+ announced that the highly-anticipated original series Percy Jackson and the Olympians will debut with two episodes on December 20, 2023. The show is based on the book series of the same name by Rick Riordan, which is about a 12-year-old demigod named Percy, tasked with recovering Zeus’ stolen lighting bolt to restore order to Olympus.
After directing the first two Harry Potter movies, Chris Columbus tried to kickstart another young adult fantasy franchise when he directed Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief in 2010. It was not the smash hit that Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone was nine years earlier, but it was a commercial success. A sequel film, Sea of Monsters, arrived in 2013, but with even worse reviews and a smaller box office take, the franchise fizzled out.
In 2019, the rights to the Percy Jackson novels were transferred to Disney when it acquired 21st Century Fox. Months later, Riordan confirmed that he would work with Disney on a live-action TV series based on his books. The author had no involvement in the movies and described them as “my life’s work going through a meat grinder when I pleaded with them not to do it.”
If nothing else, it’s the second chance that the franchise deserves, especially considering Percy Jackson & the Olympians is one of the best-selling book series of all time. Here’s a quick look at the Disney+ adaptation ahead of its premiere this December:
The series stars Walker Scobell as Percy Jackson, Leah Sava Jeffries as Annabeth Chase, and Aryan Simhadri as Grover Underwood. The huge list of guest stars includes Lin-Manuel Miranda as Hermes, Megan Mullally as Alecto, Toby Stephens as Poseidon, Jason Mantzoukas as Mr. D (Dionysus), Jay Duplass as Hades, and the late Lance Reddick as Zeus.
Disney also wants to make sure that fans know the original author had plenty of input:
Renowned “Percy Jackson” creator Rick Riordan worked closely with the creative team and showrunners Jon Steinberg and Dan Shotz to bring his books to life and deliver a series that stays true to his vision for these heroic characters that millions of book fans know and love. The first two episodes are written by Riordan and Steinberg and directed by James Bobin.
If this season is as successful as it has the potential to be, it could turn into a long-running series for the streaming service. There are 16 books in the Camp Half-Blood Chronicles franchise, with a new standalone novel slated to release in September. As long as they don’t drop the ball early, there’s no limit to how big Percy Jackson could be.

Fremont inmates face sexual assault charges
CANON CITY - Two county jail inmates face sexual-assault charges after they allegedly forced other inmates to perform sexual favors at the Fremont County Detention Center.

Jones is charged with two counts of felony third-degree sexual assault. The charges indicate that Jones subjected a male victim to sexual contact, forcing him to submit by threatening future retaliation.
Jones also is charged with one count of misdemeanor harassment because he allegedly kissed another male inmate on the neck.
Jones is a Department of Corrections inmate who is serving time for violating probation. He is incarcerated at Bent County Correctional Facility.

As I currently have a little time, I was searching on the internet the other day. On the lookout for fresh, intriguing tips, inspirational dishes that I’ve never used before, to delight my loved ones with. Looking for a long time unfortunately couldn’t find too many interesting stuff. Just before I wanted to give up on it, I stumbled on this tempting and easy dessert by accident over Suncakemom. It looked so delicious on its photos, it required immediate action.
It was simple enough to imagine the way it is created, how it tastes and just how much my husband will enjoy it. Mind you, it is very simple to delight him when it comes to cakes. Yes, I’m a blessed one. Or maybe he is.Anyway, I visited the website and simply followed the step by step instuctions that were coupled with wonderful shots of the operation. It just makes life rather easy. I could imagine that it’s a bit of a effort to shoot snap shots in the midst of cooking in the kitchen as you will often have sticky hands thus i sincerely appreciate the time and energy she put in to build this blogpost .
With that in mind I’m empowered presenting my own, personal recipe in the same way. Many thanks for the idea.
I had been tweaking the initial formula to make it for the taste of my family. I can tell you it had been an incredible success. They loved the taste, the consistency and enjoyed having a sweet such as this in the middle of a busy workweek. They basically wanted more, many more. Thus the next occasion I’m not going to commit the same mistake. I am going to twin the quantity .
The keto hot dog buns recipe is provided by SunCakeMom
Preheat oven to 350°F / 180°C and pour almond flour, psyllium husk powder, baking powder, salt into a big bowl. If psyllium is in seed form measure by tablespoons after grinding it.
Boil water and mix in the vinegar. Alternatively vinegar can be substituted with double amount of lemon juice.
With a hand mixer gradually mix the water with the dry ingredients.
Mix in the egg whites as well. Don’t get scared of the soft texture. It supposed to be like somewhat sticky slime.
Get a bowl of water close to us will allow to wet our hands after each shaping each bun.
Shape the buns according to the size of our sausages. The buns will double in size but not much in length as width. Those who got used to gluten filled baking will notice that even though the dough is soft, it doesn’t stick nearly as much to our hands as we used to. It’s completely manageable.
Place the formed buns into the pre-heated oven for 60 – 70 minutes. Don’t forget to swap sides after about 40 minutes if our oven has the tendency for uneven heat distribution.
The buns are ready when slight golden brown color starts to appear on some of them and by tapping them results a hollow sound and somewhat firm crust.
Slice them up and fill them with sausage, garnish and sauce. Check out how to make sausages at our Low Carb Meals section.

Cheryl Cole is the size of a pocket rocket - and she was certainly setting off fireworks at the Summertime Ball.
The Three Words singer found herself at the heart of a tug of love last night with Derek Hough, Will.i.am and Justin Beiber all trying to fight for her love.
Cheryl spent the end of last week with dancer Derek in Paris, where she was playing a gig supporting Black Eyed Peas. The pair were seen going on cosy strolls and partying till dawn before slipping back to their hotel together.
But if Derek thought he'd have her all to himself when she arrived back in Britain to sing at the Ball at Wembley Stadium last night he was sadly disappointed.
Peas rapper Will.i.am hired a private jet and flew in from Paris to make sure he was there, too.
His pal Usher, who was also on the bill, had invited Will to join him onstage. But the moment after their duet, Usher sped off in his Rolls-Royce to catch a flight to New York to make the Hot 97 gig. Phew! Still, it left Will to work his magic backstage.
So he must have been dismayed to find that Justin Bieber was following Cheryl around like a love-sick puppy.
But the last lady Justin declared undying love for was reality TV star Kim Kardashian - who then received a string of death threats from his obsessed fans. Eek!
Backstage at the Ball, Justin told us: "I heard Cheryl just became single... I mean come on. Whatsup Cheryl? Man she's hot. I'd love to even work with her. She's the one girl on the line-up that I'd love to be with."
Join the queue, sunshine.
All the attention on Cheryl was certainly ruffling some feathers backstage.
Rihanna who was headlining the bash, was also dismayed that Cheryl got the bigger dressing-room.
A source says: "Rihanna is usually a bit of a diva about these things, so she was shocked she got bumped into a much smaller room.
"They tried to pacify her and her people by saying that Cheryl's room didn't have a toilet. But it didn't wash with her at all.
"Cheryl had loads of champagne and flowers sent to her room which was decked out in white drapes and candles with big comfy sofas." How, er, romantic...
