"Pistorius is getting back on the track, his coach said Friday, before a skeptical South African judge decided Friday that the disgraced runner was not a flight risk and released him on bail.
“I think that will be a very good thing to do. I think just to get his mind clear,” said coach Ampie Louw, adding that Pistorius could resume training as early as Monday. “The sooner he can start with a bit of work, the better.”
But Pistorius, who became a national hero when he competed in the London Olympics last summer and a national disgrace after he killed his girlfriend on Valentine’s Day, has had his wings clipped.
A condition of Pistorius’ bail is that he can’t leave Pretoria without a probation officer’s permission.
Pistorius was whisked off in a Range Rover to an “undisclosed address” after posting 10% of his $113,000 bail, authorities said."
"Wings clipped"? I don't think so. Dude is pushing off in a Range Rover after putting up a little over $11,000.00, and he has all of Pretoria to roam. That doesn't sound like a guy who has had his "wings clipped" to me.
Meanwhile, here in America, there is another high profile murder trial going on. Some girl named Jodi Arias stabbed her boyfriend 27 times. (Dyaam!!) I guess she just had to make sure that he was dead.
The American psyche is a very interesting thing; you just never know what we will obsess over.
Finally, as I suspected, the Pope's resignation had less to do with him being physically tired than him just being tired of some of his peeps and how they behave.
"Pope Benedict’s stunning resignation is being linked to a bombshell report exposing a secret gay conclave at the Vatican being blackmailed over acts of a “worldly nature” with laymen.
The 300-page dossier — compiled by three cardinals investigating the theft of Vatican documents — was given to the Pope on Dec. 17, the same day he decided to resign, an Italian newspaper reported Friday.
Just days after receiving the report, Pope Benedict railed against gay marriage and homosexuality, calling it “the manipulation of nature.”
The probe uncovered a number of factions within the Vatican, including one whose members were “united by sexual orientation,” La Repubblica reported, citing passages from the report." [Source]
I don't think I can read anymore.
