No, not any more than McCain should emphasize his opponent`s youth and inexperience.

I'll bet most people in Japan could eat 20% less food without any ill effects. A lot of people would benefit from it.

sarge: Arent you the one on JT always giving the reports on everything on McDonalds menu? Talk about needing to cut back on daily food consumption.

It does not matter what the government says publicly about the reasons for bringing these "health professionals" here, or their stated guidelines for how long these people will be able to stay under various conditions. Obviously, there is a great need for more properly trained and motivated people in all…

Today or tomorrow, sarge? You posted at 12:27. He is still having a heckuva basho as a kadoban ozeki. Hopefully his knees will hold up and he can continue this great run.

Another win for Kotooshu. A perfect 6-0 and well on his way to avoiding demotion. Keep it up, Kotooshu!

**Okajima surrenders grand slam in Red Sox's loss **

The left-hander allowed one run and one hit in 1-1/3 innings.

This is a perfect example of why ERA is not such a good measurement of success for relievers, especially middle ones. How many inherited runners score is also important.

As Peaceful Man pointed out, Yuko Arimori did not win an Olympic gold medal. She got a silver and a bronze.

Kyoko Iwasaki had great success at the age of 14 and then not much more-at least in swimming. She did make a rather nice semi-nude photobook a few years…
