Shite

Motorcycle racing legend Barry Sheene - the last brit to win a GP - died today of cancer.

Two-time world champ Sheene made Australia home and made an immense contribution to the careers of many successful australian racers, and was a brilliant motorsports commentator.

Sadly, Sheene decided to accept "natural" remedies for his illness after he'd decided against any surgery.

"I'm not going to be fighting this in the conventional way. I won't subject my body to chemotherapy. I have made a decision about not doing chemo and that's it. I'm putting my faith in the natural way. To me its poison, and I'm not going to poison my body."

The first course of alternative treatment he tried was a radical diet regime devised by Austrian natural healer Rudolf Breuss.

It involved Sheene fasting for the first three weeks as Breuss' theory was based on the fact that cancer feeds and grows on protein. For those three week, Sheene could eat vegetable juice that included organically grown carrots and Chinese radish. During that period he lost 5kg in weight before going on a low-alkaline diet.

Did medical quackery cost Sheene his life? It would appear so.

Liberate Canada!

Damian Penny desperately wants a US invasion and regime change. Hey, if your PM was a senile crank like Jean Chrétien, you'd want an american invasion too.

Question for my Los Angeles readers

I'll be in LA twice during April, my host there has offered to take me shooting one day. Not a pleasure we get to do much here in increasingly nanny-state Oz.

Can anyone recommend a gun club/range where I can fit in a decent level of instruction then target-practice in the one day? Both handgun/rifle are fine.
