Liverpool 5-0 Luton Town
Tom Hicks and George Gillett may be acting up like a pair of clowns, but something needs to change on the pitch now, if not sooner, if only because Jamie Carragher deserves better on his 500th appearance for the club. This is a strong team Liverpool have put out tonight; you'd be forgiven for thinking after three-and-a-half years the penny has finally dropped: Itandje, Arbeloa, Carragher, Hyypia, Riise, Pennant, Alonso, Gerrard, Babel, Crouch, Torres.
Subs: Martin, Kewell, Aurelio, Kuyt, Lucas. Luton Town meanwhile are doing what they can, but Don Hutchison in central defence, for goodness sake; they may as well field a wardrobe and be done with it: Brill, Jackson, Don Hutchison for the love of sweet baby Moses, Keane, Goodall, Bell, Robinson, Spring, Currie, Andrew, Talbot.

Most Breast Cancer Web Pages Contain Reliable Information
But pages focused on complementary or alternative medicine are 15 times more likely to make misleading claims and contain other false information, a new study says. Moreover, standard measures of quality developed to assess the accuracy of Web pages don't really work, said the authors of the study, published in the March 15 issue of the journal Cancer. "There is no completely reliable Web site, but the bottom line is more information is always better. But consider the source and be cautious in interpreting what you read," said study senior author Dr. Funda Meric-Bernstam, associate professor of surgical oncology at the University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston. "The good news is 95 percent of the information is correct," added Dr.
Steroids testing debated
Texas looks to begin testing athletes next month, the result of a two-year, $6 million program approved by the state's legislature last May.New Jersey and Florida already do. So why not Oklahoma?Area coaches favor such testing, but they have one overriding concern — the cost."The problem is that it's so expensive," Muskogee football coach Matt Hennesy said. "Where would the funding come from, I don't know."Hennesy remembers when he was an assistant coach at Jenks and he said it cost $100 per test for steroids."If you figure 100 football players, you're talking about $10,000," he said. "(The cost) may have changed since then. I think it's great (to have testing). I don't see how anyone can afford it."According to a Fort Worth Star-Telegram article, the cost per test in Texas will be $175.
