...Historically our 400 free relay hasn’t been strong,” senior Rassan Grant said. “But this year it’s great. The guys fed off the energy in the arena...
...biggest beneficiary of the U.S.'s meat crisis may well be Australia, the largest exporter never known to suffer a case of mad cow. It is probably no coincidence that most of its cattle are fed on grass, not feed concocted from animal parts, which has been banned in several countries--including the U.S.--after being suspected of spreading mad cow.

A key group of Vietnam veterans, among them Colin Powell, Norman Schwarzkopf and Tommy Franks, became reformers. They recognized that combat units had been drip-fed individual replacements, instead of being sent whole units, and the reserves had not been mobilized. As a result, all units had too many men who had only just arrived or alternatively were soon to leave...
