I finally found a picture of Denny Hastert (ReTHUGs longest serving Speaker of the House)

being wheeled into prison - good read as well
I hope Dems have ads in November with Denny Hastert

The multibuilding Rochester facility sits on a sprawling campus and was once home to former U.S. Rep. Dan Rostenkowski, television evangelist Jim Bakker and Bob Probert, the former Chicago Blackhawks enforcer

It is one of only five such prison hospitals that serve male inmates at all security levels. Besides Hastert, the most recognizable inmate currently housed there is Jared Loughner, the perpetrator of the 2011 Tucson, Ariz., shooting that killed six people and injured then-U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords.

Although it is a federal prison, the tranquil location has more of a hospital-like setting. Security is focused around the perimeter and inmates may move around — outside of designated count times — with relative freedom. Staff is not armed within the buildings.

There are two American women and one American man in the Wimbledon quarters

The Williams sisters - remember when they laughed at them and their father.

Happy Fourth DUers - go Venus and Serena!!

Oh and by the way Sam Querrey (who beat Djokovic) is also in the quarters - he will play the Canadian Raonic

'We are the 48%': tens of thousands march in London for Europe

http://www.theguardian.com/politics/2016/jul/02/march-for-europe-eu-referendum-london-protest
<snip>
The hollow, bitter wit of the banners and placards was a fair indication of who took to the streets of London, in their tens of thousands, on the March for Europe on Saturday, hastily scrambled on Facebook. “And if this isn’t big enough,” said Jonathan Shakhovskoy, who is with a marketing firm in the music industry, “we’ll do it again next week, and the week after. Normalise the mood, make it less ugly.”

“Un-Fuck My Future”, “No Brex Please, We’re British”, they read. Pictures of Whitney Houston with “I Will Always Love EU”, “Europe Innit” and “I wanna be deep inside EU”. “All EU Need is Love”, “Fromage not Farage”, “Eton Mess” and, more seriously, “Science Needs EU”. “Hell no, we won’t go!” they shouted, rounding Piccadilly Circus.

No one was fooling themselves that these were the penitent huddled masses from Ebbw Vale or Sunderland come to beg after all for EU funding; this was a vocal segment of the 48% for whom departure from the EU is a disgrace, a catastrophe or both.

My favorite - "Eton Mess"
