I don’t worry about what the previous record is,” co-captain Mike Taylor said. “We play our best when we focus on what we have to do and play our game, and we can’t worry about what the other team is going to bring...
Like British Prime Minister Gordon Brown in London the previous day, Sarkozy did not accompany his guest beyond the threshold of his official residence, presumably to avoid giving the impression he was supporting McCain's campaign in the event the compliments began flowing in great gushes.

In preparation for that event, the man has been stressing for years that the function of any Dalai Lama is only to fulfill the work of the previous Dalai Lama; therefore, any young child selected by Chinese authorities and declared to be the 15th Dalai Lama, a Beijing puppet, will not be the true "Dalai Lama of Tibetan hearts." As practical and flexible as ever and holding to the Buddhist ideas of impermanence and nonattachment, he told me as far back...
