Nevertheless, Codepink protesters started chanting for impeachment again before swaggering toward the exit, escorted at that point by staffers who made sure they left the premises. Gore then suggested that Pelosi was one of the best leaders in the history of the Congress, a sentiment that received unanimous applause, the naysayers no longer being present...
...Riccò, who in the past has denied any doping irregularities, is the third competitor to be forced out of the race this year under a cloud of performance-enhancing suspicion. But it is the Italian's exit that definitively stains the entire competition, as happened last year with the early exit of then Tour leader Michael Rasmussen of Denmark, and in 2006 when American Floyd Landis was stripped of his crown following the race...

I also read the emergency instructions on the card. I look for the nearest emergency exit and tell my wife, "In case of an emergency, I'm going that way. Grab my belt and follow me." My grandkids say my middle name is "Safety." I didn't make it to 80 by being careless. Tony Weissgarber, SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS...
