I absolutely agree with you that Michelle Kwan, following this Olympics, needs to move on to the Pros or whatever she wishes to do in skating. With the new regulations going to be placed into effect coupled with the Pres. of the ISU preference for more athletic figure skating ( he was a speed skater) Michelle will be out gunned in the future if things for scoring go that way. Quite apart from that, however, the older Slutskya is more athletic in her skating style and would have longer staying power and the younger skaters, Cohen and Hughes will out distance her too. I like Michelle's skating and I like the others too. With all the new events coming into the Olympics, who knows, maybe there will be the artistic and athletic divisions in skating.

Word on FOX... confirming Danny Pearl's murder after police investigation... letter is from Wall Street Journal. MOre news breaking on this.

Oh no. That is so sad about Danny Pearl. His poor wife. I'll be looking for the news story. I heard this morning that it was probably a religious thing, due to his being Jewish. Yikes.
