Tiger Woods has apologized for repeatedly cheating on his wife — and he’s getting some support from an old flame who believes the golfer can be redeemed.

Boise St was the talk of the sports world when they upset Oklahoma in the 2006 Fiesta Bowl. We know all that.Now we need to find out if Armando Allen and his all-purpose yards are like Darius Walker or Darius Rucker.The defensive number five is Manti Te’o.  He’s a legend already and the pressure is on to prove that moniker correct. I received the following picture from various people yesterday, so I imagine it must be making the rounds – especially in the St. There?s only one word suitable to describe the OU-OSU series?BEDLAM!Records, ranking and all that, fly out the window when these two schools meet.Instead, this game is played for pride, recruiting, and maybe this year, for the Big 12 South title.Both teams are preseason Top 10, and the excitement in higher than ever in Stillwater.Dez Bryant, Kendall Hunter and Zac Robinson all return for the Pokes.However, instead of playing at home like last year?s high scoring contest, OSU must travel the 70 miles south on Interstate 35, to Norman.State pride is on the line.Winner:OU. But Robles has posted more than a strikeout per inning in split time between Single-A and Advanced-A ball.Zduriencik’s backAfter an awful trade for Jack Wilson (and Ian Snell, the good part of the deal), Z came back and made a trade that made sense.Wilson could still get flipped for somebody, anybody would be good, as the only way to make his acquisition a coup if he’s not traded is to not pay him $8.4 million next year.

They would rather have their wisdom teeth extracted on the spot instead of spending a few minutes explaining the game to you Thankfully, Brent Mayne is not one of those guys. Red Bend to Demo Firmware Updating on Google Android, Nokia, Sony EricssonModels and Motorola M2M Module at Mobile World CongressWALTHAM, Mass., Feb. Despite declines from peak levels, input costs remain at highlevels and continue to pressure our product costs and margins. Boston, a once fundamentally sound team, couldn’t even do the fundamentals.They were hopeless.Rangers manager Ron Washington hoped for between four and five innings from Nippert, but the 6′8″ right-hander gave him more, leaving to a standing ovation after tossing 5 2/3 remarkable innings.27-year old Doug Mathis replaced Nippert and, not surprisingly, sent down the Red Sox with ease. Well there are few people that make me alter that stance and, alongside Adrian Peterson, Calvin Johnson is one of them.Why is Johnson one of the exceptions? It’s because he single-handedly willed a pathetic Lions team into games that they had absolutely no business being in. WASHINGTON (Reuters) – While some U.S. Income from operations, after taking non-cash stock compensationcharge of $6.1 million, was $99.5 million or 11.5% of revenue, compared to $69.2million or 11.0% last year.

He pointed out that Gaston believes in letting the players play, putting the same team on the field and getting out of their way.Girardi will never understand this.The only good thing is that I learned that I will probably never get a migraine at work again.

If he can make the double this weekend, it would be the first ever at Texas Motor Speedway. Now, Kentucky seems to be following that model.The unreal expectations that Kentucky fans, boosters, alumni, and athletic department have shows arrogance. This giving teams the ability to hold on to there talent for three years and be able to dump them off the books if they do not perform as they thought they would.A problem that would arise with rookie pay scales are teams might not be able to retain players after they become eligible for free agency.

So they have to make a important decision when that time comes.This situation may be similar to what the Detroit Pistons had to go through. I would have rather seen him go to the Bears, Colts, or maybe even the Dolphins.I hope the best for the Steelers in the rest of the offseason and hope they do something exciting, sign somebody big.I’ll also add that just because you won the Super Bowl does not mean you don’t need some additions to the team and some fix-ups to make the team better.For example, we need a better O-Line Ben was sacked way too many times. Feel free to comment on your own favourite moments! Let the countdown begin…..  Loper was a fifth round pick in 2005 by the Titans, and his contract is cheap compared at what would have to be paid to a first round pick.

Though the Church Commissioners control assets worth pounds 2.4bn, they have been squeezed by the recession. But unless governments bend very soon before the serious recessionary forces they are facing, the current thrust of policy will have precisely the opposite effect to that intended.Not all the electorates of Western Europe have a reputation for accepting economic hard times with the resigned phlegm traditionally shown by the British. Last month an inquest jury decided an asylum seeker, Omasase Lumumba, nephew of murdered Zairean president Patrice Lumumba, had been unlawfully killed in a London jail. The event passed without comment, as the oil major handled the transfer with characteristic smoothness.Rocco Forte inherited the chairman’s mantle from his father in 1992, but the City was critical of his decision to remain chief executive as well.

The exporters can only cover the extra transport costs and make a profit by selling the whole lamb to the French abattoir, including the fifth quarter: offal, skin, intestine (for sausage skins) and the lucrative fleece. To some extent you have to be born with it, and Lawrie certainly was,’ Pattisson says.And yet. He is the Government’s chief legal adviser, answering questions in the Commons, and is politically responsible for the Crown Prosecution Service. Mr Major showed the MPs the door after a meeting lasting two minutes.Government sources denied yesterday that the result was a rebuff for Mr Major.Sir George has helped to widen the influence of the group by running a slate of right-wing candidates for the Tory backbench committees. Right there, you glimpsed, with a slight chill, what it takes.Peter Terry, the school’s sports psychologist spoke of a ‘pervasive reluctance to even express the possibility of international success’. Yet the orchestra seemed strangely disembodied: not boxy and bass-less, as in the old house, but as if heard through a half-open door from the next room.
Indeed the live voice-orchestra balance so curiously resembled what we often get on recordings and in telecasts that one nearby colleague actually took himself off to the Organ Room at the interval to enjoy the rest of the opera in solitary state over closed circuit. He cast it into a plaster mould, experimenting until he had it just right He was patient and a perfectionist.

We are not going to vote ‘no’ just to show we can as Mr Major did. For a moment, the complaints are set aside in a uniquely American brew of pious idealising and the tackiest, most ruthless commercialism imaginable.This inauguration, as every one before it, will see the President as Head of State. Westminster Council thinks direct debits have lowered its costs so much that it is offering a limited number of free television sets to customers who use them.Several electricity companies and magazine subscriptions offer reduced bills.Direct Debit information packs are avilable by calling the Freephone number 0800 545554.. No one – with the conspicuous exception of the novelist himself – is granted a credible fictional life of his or her own. Since the summer of 1991 when talks started about re-introducing a German withholding tax on interest income, it is estimated that at least DM110bn ( pounds 46.4bn) has been hauled across the border to the Luxembourg safe haven.

The survey will further batter Tory morale in the run-up to this month’s Christchurch by-election, and could strengthen the hand of backbench rebels mustering support for a last-ditch revolt against the Maastricht treaty – and for a referendum – in Commons and Lords votes scheduled for 26 July.
The poll, for today’s Daily Telegraph, puts Labour on 43 per cent, the Liberal Democrats on 26.5 per cent, and the Tories on 24.5 per cent. WHEN the market greets a rights issue that almost doubles a company’s capital base with a rise in the share price, it approves. As a consequence the visitor gets both a taste of Willy Wonka and a sense of Orwellian gloom. Many said they were looking for an alternative to package tours and beach holidays. Police in Avon and Somerset are to be issued with US-style telescopic batons. In 1984 he left the police for his present job, which in 10 years has given him an unprecedented degree of influence over many aspects of athletics, in Britain and overseas.

It is in his interest now to try to extract the maximum concessions from Mr Rabin before returning to the table.The Arab states – Syria, Jordan and Lebanon – had no option but to suspend talks with the Israelis. ‘Wimpey offered contract bribes to Malaysian prime minister’, said the headline in the Sunday Times two weeks ago.A subsequent assurance by the paper that ‘at no stage did the Sunday Times claim that Dr Mahatir had sought such a bribe or been paid one’ made no difference. The idea that only Centaurs’ shock troops, the highly trained commandos of the retail assault, can separate customers from their money shows how sartorial standards and working-class self-confidence have changed. If it matters for Conservative activists, it should matter much more for everyone else.. But there is no guarantee that yet another meeting of heads of government would have produced anyone significantly better. An agency of the Colombian government has put a 700 million-barrel estimate on the development. Soon Roman Polanski, who is putting on a stage version in Paris, will make the movie.The play stars Poland’s two most famous actors, Krystyna Janda as Paulina, and Wojtek Pszoniak as her husband, Gerardo, with the film director Jerzy Skolimowski making his theatrical directing and acting debut as Roberto, the doctor.Skolimowski, ingeniously, makes use of a revolving stage to move the action from dining room to bathroom to sitting room.

What do they all expect to find here?

Movement on the pavements is only slightly slower than on the roads. Oxford seems to have half a dozen different bus services, all in competing acid liveries, and most of the vehicles are half-empty. My pounds 2 return to the city centre is immediately trumped when another bus shoots by with a cheaper price emblazoned on its door.
We are all looking for the Oxford Experience, though we are more likely to get it from sitting in an armchair with an old book than from traipsing round and gazing at the blank back walls of colleges. Austin spoke of his England one-day ambitions later, and his captain, Mike Watkinson, said of him: “He’s probably the bloke in our side you would expect to put the ball in the right place.” Had Fairbrother departed quickly, however, Austin and his bowling colleagues may not have had a sufficient total to make any effort worthwhile.There have been some suppositions made lately that Fairbrother is not what he was, as if retirement were beckoning. Not a very welcoming town, Oxford.

A town of high walls, thick gates and “not open to the public” signs, of “do not walk on the grass”, of privatised peace and annexed beauty, and the paradox of a tourist trade predicated on elitism If you are not Gown, it follows that you must be Town. Here was the one-day batsman par excellence, shuffling deceptively to the wicket to put his side in command

Fairbrother let nobody down. His was the most significant innings of the day and if Lancashire’s fourth win in the Benson and Hedges Cup Final was a collective effort, the whole team must have been anxious for him to play as and when he did. Ian Austin justifiably won the gold award for 9.3 overs of splendid seam bowling.
His removal of both openers made it a mountainous struggle for Northamptonshire, and while they eased themselves out of the foothills, they were never in sight of the summit of their ambitions. Once they had gone the only hope was that Emburey, back on his “home” ground, could do something remarkable. There was a typical swipe for four, but next ball he was bowled and that was that..

When Neil Fairbrother walked out to bat at Lord’s yesterday he was greeted with expectant applause. A frisson of excitement was detectable among the Lancashire contingent in the crowd, matched only by the clear apprehension of the Northamptonshire support. Bailey and Montgomerie then added 87 for the third wicket, and although both went in quick succession to reduce North- amptonshire to 111 for four, Curran and Walton, the hero of Northamptonshire’s semi-final win over Warwickshire, put them back on course. Northamptonshire sought to capitalise on the situation by introducing Emburey. But after Atherton pulled Emburey to midwicket, Fairbrother and Lloyd got things moving again in a stand of 49. After the late surge, an asking rate of 4.92 runs per over looked within reach.Austin quickly changed that, however, having Capel caught behind and bowling Alan Fordham with a ball which the batsman was unlucky to drag on. Timing the ball wonderfully from the outset, he was the dominant partner in a stand of 53 for the third wicket which marked the best phase of the Lancashire innings.At the halfway stage Lancashire were a handy 102 for two, but in the 26th over, Crawley threw his wicket away when he glanced Penberthy into Russell Warren’s gloves.The batting side’s momentum had once more been checked just when it had got going.

The company, which made a profit of about DM2bn (pounds 880m) last year, would vote tomorrow for the abolition of the swaggering currency which stifles its exports. As for those disappearing jobs, he blames high wages, inflated by some of the heaviest taxes in Europe, and the strength of the Deutschmark.His analysis is echoed on the other side of the city, at the headquarters of the pride of German industry, Mercedes-Benz. “The problem is jobs are disappearing faster than we are creating them,” he says.From his vantage point, a palatial residence overlooking Stuttgart, his state seems like Europe’s California, brimming with innovation. It spends a higher proportion of GNP on research and development than Japan and boasts a higher concentration of the industries of the future – software and biotechnology – than almost any other region of the developed world. But Erwin Teufel, Baden-Wurttem- berg’s Christian Democrat Prime Minister, dismisses the recession and the steady erosion of the region’s industrial base as a natural calamity. The other parties, even the Greens, whose line on immigration would best be described as “the more the merrier”, have been forced to concede that the influx of Aussiedler must be curbed. By making this adjustment mid-way through the campaign, they appear to have taken the sting out of the debate, deflecting it back to their own turf.For the Christian Democrats and Free Democrats that is the economy – rather surprisingly, given that the two parties have governed Germany for 13 years and must, therefore, bear some responsibility for record unemployment of 4.3 million.

At election rallies Mr Spori now barely talks about Europe, but spends a lot of time discussing immigration He has scored a few points. Far more effective has been Mr Spori’s call to halt the immigration of Aussiedler, ethnic Germans from eastern Europe. Every year since the collapse of the Soviet Union, Germany has admitted more than 200,000 “resettlers”, mostly from the badlands on Russia’s fringes. Mr Spori says the country cannot afford them: “As long as unemployment rises, we cannot maintain such a policy.”Statements like that, spiked with inflammatory remarks about these immigrants “walking directly into pensions and dole queues”, always get a good reception on the stump. But they have provoked horror among politicians of all hues, including Social Democrats, who suspect Mr Spori of pandering to right- wing extremists.The man in the centre of this furore is unfazed by accusations that he is bringing beer-hall politics back to the Black Forest He knows a winner when he sees one.

If they fail, the party must go back to the drawing board.The answer will come tonight, but on the evidence of opinion polls and the atmosphere at hustings, the cumbersome slogan “Stability and jobs take priority now – so postpone monetary union” has only elicited yawns. That such a person should spring from the loins of the left verges on heresy. Yet there he is, carrying the Social Democrat banner in today’s elections to the assembly of Baden-Wurttemberg on an anti-Europe and, crucially, anti-immigrant ticket.
The leader of the SPD in this affluent state, Mr Spori has conducted an unashamedly populist campaign, playing on voters’ fears of immigrants and anxiety about monetary union. If thesethemes prove to be vote-winners, then the SPD’s national leadership is likely to adopt them in the battle to unseat Helmut Kohl in elections due in 1998. Dieter Spori also professes a profound disdain for Europe and an admiration for many of the themes championed by the Tory right. That Germany, the engine of European integration, should spawn a Eurosceptic with electoral potential is surprising enough. “They talk about the Yankee imperialist dogs from time to time, but they don’t seem to have any problem with us.

Only last week the UK firm Morgan Crucible, one of the world’s largest suppliers of industrial carbons and ceramics, announced that it was moving production from Germany and Japan to Eastern Europe and China. Wages were $31 an hour in Japan and $26 in Germany; in eastern Europe, rates were $1.50 an hour; at its new Shanghai plant $1 a day.In such a process of heightened competition between countries, the strong do well and those left behind find it ever harder to catch up. Jobs follow the cash, which is invested wherever labour is cheapest. Thus one of France’s largest electronics groups employs three times as many people in Asia as it does at home.

And Swissair has moved its accountancy department to Delhi.Good news for the poor? Up to a point. For when living standards begin to rise – and local wages with them – the jobs move elsewhere. Japanese investment is already shifting from South Korea and Taiwan to Malaysia and Thailand, which have one-tenth of the wage costs The commercial logic is hard to defy. And investors are moving their cash, known in financial jargon as foreign direct investment (FDI), around the unregulated world market in such quantities that FDI has overtaken trade as the engine of world growth.

Marketing has become global – the whole world is sold the same McDonald’s, Ford Mondeo, Coca-Cola or Michael Jackson album. Transnational companies grow ever larger, with their subsidiaries spanning the globe.As a result the movement of money round the world is constantly speeding up – current foreign exchange dealings exceed $1 trillion a day. National boundaries and habits are becoming increasingly irrelevant to business decisions as investment flows and production facilities move in search of the highest possible returns or market share. But the rapid integration of the world economy poses problems for the world’s poor which are, according to senior aid analysts, qualitatively different.
Economic globalisation has come about through the interactions of high technology in communications, and other parts of industry, with the large- scale financial deregulation that was loosed in the Thatcher/ Reagan era. The occasion is the 50th anniversary of the founding of Christian Aid, whose work in the intervening period – from relief work for the starving in India in the Sixties to campaigning for the reform of unfair trading practices and the relief of Third World debt in more recent years – charts a shift in understanding of what keeps people poor. But they have also brought a steadily developing sense of unease about how to respond to the losers in the increasingly ferocious competitive marketplace. Today in Lambeth Palace a collection of the great and the good, led by Douglas Hurd and the Archbishop of Canterbury, gather to debate the issue that is preoccupying the thinkers of the aid agency world: how to respond to growing economic globalisation.

Where now for the world’s poor? The years since the collapse of Communism have seen the emergence of an apparent global consensus about the inescapable role of markets in economic life. Despite its efforts, the response rate has barely reached 50 per cent.Steve Bee, pensions manager at Prudential, Britain’s largest insurer, said his company had recently begun contacting 500,000 of its clients at the rate of 30,000 a week.. Industry estimates suggest compensating these so-called “opt-outs” could cost an average of pounds 10,000 each.Legal & General has mailed tens of thousands of clients three times and also tries to contact them by telephone. The first stage involves a questionnaire designed to assess whether mis- selling had taken place and the level of any loss.In the past few months, insurers have written to more than 1 million of their policyholders at least once. About 350,000 of the most urgent cases, often elderly people who were advised to switch their funds out of company schemes and into private ones, must be considered first. The report says up to 1.5 million people may have been wrongly advised to set up personal pensions and transfer their money out of occupational schemes.The SIB and other watchdogs set up a system for people to receive compensation. We have had a concern throughout this process that the onus is on the consumer to react to the companies.”This is only going to work if there is a high-profile campaign to inform people of what they should do.”If this does not work and the response rate remains low, the Personal Investments Authority [the regulator] must be prepared to set in place automatic reviews of personal pensions.”The insurance company mailshots follow a report last year by the Securities and Investments Board, the City’s most senior regulator.

It was important that there should be an “industry standard” for the purpose of the Duxbury approach. In order to achieve such consistency of approach the court proposed to select an assumed real rate of return of 4.25 per cent.Barry Singleton QC and Lucy Stone (Manches & Co) for the wife; Adrian Taylor (Adrian Pellman) for the husbandMental healthTameside and Glossop Acute Services Trust v CH (a patient); FD (Wall J); 22 Jan 1996Doctors attending a pregnant woman detained under s 3 of the Mental Health Act 1983 were concerned that the woman’s state of mind, which had deteriorated as the result of the necessary interruption of her medication by the pregnancy, might cause her to resist treatment during delivery. They sought a declaration that it would be lawful to use reasonable restraint should it be deemed clinically necessary. The proposed treatment, which was the performing of a Caesarian section and, if required, restraint applied to the patient to enable it to be carried out, was in the circum-stances treatment given for the patient’s mental disorder within the broad interpretation of s 63 of the Act approved in B v Croydon Health Authority [1995] 1 All ER 683 and the consent of the patient was not required.

The declaration was granted.Huw Lloyd (Hempsons) for the applicants; Robert Francis QC (Official Solicitor) as guardian ad litem for the patient.PensionsCocking v Prudential Assurance Co Ltd and related actions; QBD (Bristol Mercantile Court) (Pensions List)(Judge Raymond Jack QC); 8 Jan 1996Investors were entitled to pursue their claims of mis-selling through the courts despite the review instigated by the statutory regulators of the industry. The aim of the review was to investigate and compensate where appropriate, without recourse to the courts, all investors who may have been wrongly advised to take out personal pension policies as an alternative to occupational pension schemes. However there was insufficient evidence that there would be a flood of litigation which would disrupt or delay the orderly process of the review to justify staying the investors’ actions pending the outcome of the review.John Virgo (Ringrose Wharton & Co) for the plaintiff; Michael Tennet (Lovell White Durrant) for the defendant.SolicitorsBarclays Bank plc v Weeks Legg and Dean; QBD (John Toulmin QC); 9 Feb 1996The bank, which had promised a loan to the purchaser of land at auction, required the purchaser’s solicitors two working days before completion to undertake only to pay the funds to the vendor if they were able to obtain a good marketable title. The solicitors gave the undertaking and completion took place. The solicitors had discovered there was a right of way over the land but did not mention its existence to the bank which was not their client, assuming that the bank would have made its own inquiries. Title was transferred to the purchaser under the contract of sale, but the right of way caused difficulties and the purchaser was unable to resell the land for development as intended The bank sued the solicitors for its loss.

The bank’s contention that the phrase good marketable title meant a title free of all encumbrance was rejected. When construed in the light of the commercial purpose and factual background, the phrase meant a title which a vendor was able to force an unwilling purchaser to accept under the contract and the solicitors were not therefore in breach.Jonathan Nash (Lovell White Durrant) for the bank; Genevra Caws QC and Richard McManus (Blake Lapthorn) for the solicitors.. For the American writer Henry David Thoreau,the mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation. If so, what sort of lives do animals lead? Dr Jeffrey Masson believes animals have the capacity to be just as miserable – or happy. In a recent book, When Elephants Weep: the Emotional Lives of Animals, Dr Masson asserts that animals have a capacity not only to feel physical pain but also to fear and even to hope, love and grieve. In short, that they are sufficiently self-aware to experience emotions

Dr Masson came to his subject from human psychoanalysis.

“Surprisingly, there is almost no investigation of the emotional lives of animals in modern scientific literature,” he writes, although noting that Darwin conjectured freely on the matter. “Not only are the emotions of animals not a respectable field of study, the words of emotion are not to be applied to them.”
Dr Masson breaks this taboo, recounting tales of animal rescues, favours, longings, friendships and enmities. A description of elephants’ preoccupation with the bones of dead elephants is reminiscent of Hamlet’s brooding over Yorick’s skull. But he does himself no favours with his own emotive language, which will alienate many scientists. Animals are referred to throughout by the pronoun “who” rather than “which”, for example.There are good reasons why scientists have been wary of the idea of emotions.

They hope to finish in time for the 1999 World Cup.Glyn Woodman, the county’s chief executive, said: “If we cannot develop the ground, then I believe that in the medium term Surrey would have to leave here and move to another ground.”. Additionally, under the Test and County Board’s seat retention scheme, all the income from the new seating would be kept by The Oval until the project has been paid for.Surrey claim that pounds 1.2m a year in revenue is being lost with around 10,000 spectators being turned away at The Oval for one-day internationals and Tests.Surrey have already invested pounds 14m in redeveloping the Pavilion, Laker and Bedser stands. The improvements would extend the capacity of the ground from the present 15,400 up to 32,000, which is 4,000 more than at Lord’s.Apart from the Lottery money, Surrey would raise funds from commercial and private loans.

Plans for a pounds 32m facelift for The Oval, which would turn it into the largest cricket stadium in the Northern hemisphere, were unveiled yesterday.

Laura Davies, the world’s leading female golfer, can move a step closer to the double she is chasing in the Hennessy Cup, the second richest event on the American Express Tour, which begins here today.Although she is maintaining a low profile, Davies is well aware that she could become the first player to win the European Order of Merit and the LPGA money-list titles in one season.It is a tall order, yet Davies is $100,000 (pounds 63,000) ahead of a chasing pack on the LPGA money list in America, and in Europe her winnings of pounds 56,082 put her ahead of Lora Fairclough.Three victories this year take her tally to 36 worldwide since 1985, although she has yet to win the Hennessy Cup. Langer, who tops the Order of Merit, is seeking a victory for the 10th time on home soil on the Volvo Tour, but the BMW event, launched in 1989, has so far escaped his grasp.Unusually for a European Tour event, players in the first round will be allowed to use preferred lies, as the course has been affected by rain.. He lies 93rd in the Order of Merit and is scheduled to miss the Murphy’s Irish Open next week.Roe faces an impressive field in Munich chasing a first prize of pounds 91,660, with Bernhard Langer the favourite.

reports from Sete, FranceWhile most of the tourist world ashore was well into a sunset dinner, the eight Group B racers in the Coupe Brut de Faberge were still doing battle on the western Mediterranean last night.Earlier, the eight in Group A had to wait until the afternoon to run three sets of races which in a shifty seven to nine knot southerly all went the way of the seeds, Peter Gilmour and Neville Witey, of Australia, gold medalist Thierry Peponnet, of France, and the Dutchman, Roy Heiner.But the breeze then shifted west and piped up to 14 knots to produce better racing. Welham will be resting when John Whitaker rides Grannusch in today’s main class.Skelton jumped a swift and smooth clear round to finish third for the later Vegla Prize on Everest Sublime.Results, Sporting Digest, page 27. Michael had three fences down on Everest Midnight Madness, who was an impressive winner here on Tuesday, and John retired Welham after a mistake at the water – which was only the third of the 14 fences.Whitaker felt that Welham was lame after landing slightly short at the water jump. “I rode like a prat at the second fence,” Billington said, after approaching it far too slowly and having it down.But it was the Whitaker brothers who fared worst of the Britons. The best British placing was Nick Skelton’s 23rd with Everest Dollar Girl, who had two errors in the opening round.Warren Clarke (on Benjumin II) and Geoff Billington (with It’s Otto) also had two mistakes, for which they both blamed themselves. He was bound to be a hero with the Aachen crowds, having won team and individual gold medals for Germany at last year’s World Equestrian Games.Sloothaak won from a Dutchman (Jan Tops) and the Swiss European champion (Willi Melliger), with two Irishmen (John Ledingham and Trevor Coyle) fourth and fifth.
