The family of Amanda Savell files suit against Chinese drug company for her murder.
Before I get into this I want to say two things. First, I agonized for days over whether or not I should even write this because what I'm about to say is the truth, and as we all know, the truth hurts, and the last thing I want to do is bring any more pain to Amanda Savell's family. Secondly, I am the father of two grown daughters. It's very safe to say that, as their father, I would have no compunction whatsoever to spending the rest of my life on death row for gruesomely and protractedly ending the life of a jacked up scumbag who murdered either one of them. Burying a child, especially burying a child who was heinously murdered by a stark, raving, coward has got to rank at the very top of life's most incontestable woes.Monday morning came like all Monday's do; too soon, too early and with too much to do. I got up at my usual time; fixed Max his breakfast, hung out with him for a little while and then we got dressed and headed out the door for school. We have this morning routine down to a minute-by-minute science; like NASA does with a Shuttle launch. We got in the truck, I stuck the key in the ignition and when I twisted it, nothing happened. I twisted it back and forth a few times and I got nothing out of the old girl but a click. Damn....
We pushed the truck out of the driveway and alongside the curb across the street. Thank God I work out because, all jacked up on 33s, a 4x4 doesn't roll too easily - especially up hill. With the truck secured by the side of the road, I ran back in the house to get the keys to my car. We backed out of the garage and roared down the street in an effort to be the less late, but we were late all the same.
Memorial Day is a federal holiday observed on the last Monday of May (May 31 in 2010). Formerly known as Decoration Day, it commemorates U.S. soldiers who died while in the military service. First enacted to honor Union soldiers of the American Civil War (it is celebrated near the day of reunification after the Civil War); it was expanded after World War I. The holiday was formerly known as Decoration Day because on this day the gravestones of every American service man and woman are decorated with an American flag. If you have ever been to Arlington National Cemetery in our nation' s capitol, seeing those thousands and thousands of miniature American flags waving in the breeze is a sight only eclipsed by the sheer number of monuments they adorn.
Seven-time Tour de France champion Lance Armstrong now has the pleasure of having not only the United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) looking up his ass, but also the former IRS agent, turned FDA special agent, who was the lead investigator in the BALCO case, Jeff Novitzky. In addition to USADA's investigation, Novitzky has focused the forces of the Food and Drug Administration's criminal investigations unit on Armstrong to look into whether or not he took performance enhancing drugs when he won cycling's most prestigious race. Novitzky, who made a name for himself in the press spending tens of millions of dollars chasing Barry Bonds out of Cooperstown, became famous in the BALCO case which involved numerous top professional and Olympic athletes, many of whom went to jail, were discredited, or ended their careers.
Former track coach Trevor Graham is suing the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency for $30 million. The suit filed in Federal court this week alleges that USADA permanently tarnished Graham's name when they accused him of providing performance enhancing drugs to the track athletes he coached. According to court documents, Graham says USADA "slandered my name for the whole world to see."
