Tomorrow I begin teaching a college course, in addition to my full-time day job, that I've been creating and working on for months. Work has been very busy lately and I'm worried that my experience with the class will make my life

Woah! Helpful. I guess Thompson should learn to dive forward with his right shoulder next time!

Hmm -- call me crazy, but I feel like the positioning of the camera might have wrongly decided the race for Lyles. The first torso to cross the line wins. If you look at the still image in the article, Lyles' right shoulder is leaning

Osho was in the middle of an oath of silence during this time and not actually running the ashram or accused by anyone credible of having been part of the salmonella attack. But in any event, isn't it possible that his commentary on re
