...North Carolina require a doctor's consent for patrons in that age group, while Wisconsin has banned indoor tanning for anyone under 16. Many states require parents' permission for teenage customers. A bill requiring written consent for those under 18 is working its way through the legislature in Pennsylvania, which leads the nation in number of professional tanning salons, with an estimated...
...road rash, legs mangled in the wheel hurt. After Marion Jones, Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa, aren't we immune to the fact that our beloved athletes might not have achieved immortality on talent alone? Hell, no.

Pedaling with a bum hip, FLOYD LANDIS, 30, a Mennonite raised in Pennsylvania, didn't seem like the guy to bet on, especially after he dealt with a devastating one-day drop from first place to 11th (because of a loss of energy, known as a "bonk") by having a beer. It must have been a stout, because Landis, who suffers from a degenerative hip condition, returned the next...
