..from the story:

" On Friday, World Anti-Doping Agency head John Fahey told Reuters Armstrong should be stripped of his seven Tour titles, because his decision not to fight doping charges meant there was "substance" to the allegations."
So he wasn't stripped of his titles. These are a bunch of bureaucrats who should be tested for power intoxication. Your tax dollars at work.

America could use another moment like July 20, 1969. I was too young to remember that landing, but I do remember ones that followed. They brought a lot of hope to some pretty dark days in American history.

Earlier this week: Roger Fisher (author of "Getting to Yes").

I had to use his book as a Teaching Assistant in graduate school (the book seemed simplistic to me, but I think that was the point - to make it easy to understand).

Russell Means, I just mentioned him the other day around here.. I had the privilege of meeting him once, my wife is quite taken with his books. He was a great American and Indian spokesman. Finally at peace.

Russell Means was a compelling figure. I've thought of him when I saw the groups at Plymouth on the fourth Thursday in November marking the first nations' day of mourning.

And RIP George McGovern as well.

Did anybody see the esteemed "Reverend" Al Sharpton on Rachel Maddow tonight? He's thin as a rail! Boy the blacks will be losing a great leader when he finally kicks the bucket(snear)!

Also, what on Earth has happened to Judge Napolitano? He ain't died has he?

Reminds of another bear described in a Leanto journal in the West Canada Wilderness area of the Adirondacks around ten years back, this bear got to a hanging food sack by jumping 20 feet and named by the hiker as BEAR JORDAN
