new Poll / Audiotraxx Downloads
Well, as most of you, I also voted that Anna won't inform us about her future tennis plans - Oh my God Anna, please prove me wrong!!!! See the result of that last poll and also vote in the new one:

Audiotraxx Downloads: I finally made it - as of today you can download Audio songs (I start with one Track) I made in the past! Okay okay, it was done with an old Commodore Amiga 500 Plus but all these songs really meant much for me and of course they still do! Don't except World Class Hits, guys! Access the Audiotraxx Downloads

Another Website Layout Update
After changing the basic color of the AKFS from #0066CC to #FF3300 (hex code) I think it's time to get rid of the "old" and traditional hairline-table-layout! What do I mean? Take a look into the Tour Gallery-Webpages where I already installed new head tables ("2004 Tour Gallery" etc.)!

I will make images for the top of the most of the tables on this website but this will take some time! I hope you will like the result! Do YOU have any suggestions???

Guess what Anna recently does? Yes - Anna took part in the L'Oreal Paris Style Lab Los Angeles Opening on September 17th, 2004 (perhaps some kind of new endorsement deal???)! She looks beautiful as usual and you can see her posing for photographers beside Milla Jovovich and Jean Paul Agon, President and CEO L'Oreal USA. See pictures:

Anna to appear on "The Apprentice": Anna confirmed that she'll appear at the 2nd season of "The Apprentice", a US TV show! More about this show

PERSONAL COMMENT: Well, Anna on TV but it has nothing to do with Tennis :-((((

US Open 2004 comment / Paparazzis don't leave them alone
No news, just a comment by me: Currently I watch most of the Women's matches at the US Open (thanx to Eurosport) and well, sometimes Anna is still mentioned by the commentators (mostly negative comments...) - some examples:
- Match Henin-Hardenne vs Vaidisova (1st Round): The commentator said that Vaidisova already achieved sth Anna probably will never achieve - winning a tournament
- Match Dementieva vs Mauresmo: According to Matthias Stach (Eurosport's german commentator for this match) Dementieva said that she has nothing in common with Anna - although both once were in the same russian tennis club in Moscow (Spartak)

What do I wanna say??? I doubt that we will ever see Anna again. I still got hope, right! Remember her comments back in July when she played World Team Tennis! She said she still doesn't know if she can play at New Haven and at the US Open...! What's now???
- NO SIGN of Anna in the stands (remember US Open 1999 when she was injured as well)
- NO SIGN of Anna having any kind of promo around the US Open (remember last year's Open)
- NO COMMENT of Anna regarding her injury status or comeback plans at all
- TO SUM IT UP: WE HEAR NOTHING!!!!

Anna, tell your remaining fans what you're planning. We deserve that!

Paparazzis don't leave them alone: Reportedly a Paparazzi recently wanted to take pictures of Anna as she just wanted to take off her Bikini top (remember April 2001-backyard-topless-pictures)! Enrique reportedly almost got into a fight with that guy and well, obviously the guy went away! Spanish websites: one | two
Thanx to "The Outsider" & "Hot for Enrique"

PERSONAL COMMENT: It's time for REAL Anna-News again...! Basically since August 10th no news :-(((((

Color change to come / Anna quite sure about marriage
I already informed you that the AKFS will shine bright in a new basic color - date of color change: Friday, September 3rd, 2004 - exactly 8 years after I first saw Anna :-) There won't be any content changes, just the basic color will turn into a lovely red.

I hope you will like it.

Anna quite sure about marriage: Basically no news but just another quote which reveals that Anna's obviously very sure that Enrique is THE ideal man for her: "I'm not saying 'No Comment', but I just don't know when we're going to get married. There are no current plans" - Anna said this obviously when she surprised the Gillette contest winner on August 10th!
Furthermore, Anna talks about her recent summer activities ("I've been working on a few projects...just with charities and children") and her current injury/comeback status: "I haven't trained because it's so hard. I need to train for two to three months for at least five hours a day." Star Magazine report

PERSONAL COMMENT: Well, just compare her (reported) comments from August 10th with what she said at Sunday Night's ESPN Sportscenter ("I am practising five days a week") - total confusion! Did her injury status get better SO MUCH within 3 weeks?!?!? Probably not. Who knows if all these reported quotes are accurate! Anna hasn't played competitive Tennis for nearly 1 1/2 years - fact! And I think that she won't come back anymore if she's 25/26! But as we all know, we never know with Anna!
