Report: Synthetic testosterone found in Landis urine sample - Cycling - Yahoo! Sports
Two options here. Option 1: Landis was doping with testosterone. Option 2: Somebody spiked Landis’ sample.
I prefer option 2 at this point, but maybe I’m just being stubborn.
‘Twas beer that caused the drug test abnormality, Floyd Landis says.
The Weekend Australian has learned that, should Landis’s B sample be positive, he will base his defence on a case study done in 1992 by chemists from the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the Huddings University Hospital in Sweden.
Researchers found that drinking a 20-ounce glass of beer - or one pint - significantly increased the ratio of testosterone and epitestosterone in urine.
“What I need to prove now is there are variations in my testosterone-epitestosterone level that are out of the ordinary,” Landis said.
Big surf, heavy lightning, a 7 and a half foot shark, and a kayak.
On the July 15 outing, he headed out from the Eastern Shore through Magothy Channel between Fishermans and Smith islands. As he paddled into open water, a fog bank shrouded him in pea soup.
“The fog was a cool relief from the heat of the day,” he said, and his GPS kept him oriented. He rigged a chum bag, put some menhaden oil drops in the water and live-baited his big rods.
“My first fish was a small thresher [shark], followed by a big hookup and escape after a five-minute fight,” Maxwell said.
He caught and released another sandbar, about 4½ feet, when two things hit pretty much at once — the bigger shark and the storm.
A little late for the Oriental tournament, but still handy
Where you have seen them before you will see them again. They are known for running a path of sorts. It’s an invisible path, because water can’t hold any sort of print.

The secret to tarpon fishing is that you must use the prefect size bait. It has to be compact, but appealing to the fish. Tarpon don’t have a fine set of teeth so therefore the bait used has to fit when swallowed down their throat whole. In this area tarpon really do love the taste of menhaden. It doesn’t have to be alive to get their attention. Tarpon are basically bottom feeders.

For the upper column bite I suggest using a large 12-inch trout float. However, I don’t suggest using a trout style sinker stay with a slip style weight. You want the least amount of weight friction that you can get once you get your hook up.
Got the image via an email today. The flag identifies the fighter on the left as a Palestinian, but the tactics he’s using are the same.
This is the poster for our film. More to come.
I have been meaning to post more on the 48 Hour Film Project, but have no time. Until I can post my thoughts, I’ll post the first film from Greensboro that I’ve been able to find on YouTube. Keep in mind that this is not the film from my team. It’s just the first one I’ve found that’s been released into the wild. It’s mildly amusing. Enjoy.
