...three-time World Champions Natalia Bestemianova and Andrei Bukin claiming the gold. "B and B," as they are known, earned three perfect 6.0s for artistic merit from the panel of nine judges, delivering a theatrical long program that depicted the taming of a wild shrew. Heavily rouged and clad in garish black-and-gold costumes, the pair executed moves that were unarguably polished but at times bordered on the vulgar, particularly when Bestemianova repeatedly spread her legs and squatted...

Alaskans see the Eskimo logo as an unofficial state symbol, but others are often bewildered by it. Bruce Kennedy, chairman of the parent Alaska Air Group, complains that critics ranging from passengers to Comedian Jay Leno have observed that the Eskimo looks like Gaddafi, Manson, Abraham Lincoln, Willie Nelson or Johnny Cash. Tired of such comments, Alaska Airlines has announced tentative plans...
