Here is another great dog rescue story:

A frightened, shivering dog has been rescued after floating alone on an ice floe down Poland's Vistula River and then 15 miles (24 kilometers) out into the Baltic Sea.

Now his saviors just have to figure out who really owns him.

Four people have already claimed him, but so far rescuers say there's been no wagging tail of joy from the miracle dog they nicknamed "Baltic."

The dog's frozen odyssey came as Poland suffers through a winter cold snap, with temperatures dipping to below minus 4 degrees Fahrenheit (minus 20 Celsius).

The thick-furred male dog was found adrift Monday by the crew of the Baltica, a Polish ship of ocean scientists carrying out research in the Baltic Sea. Researcher Natalia Drgas said Thursday the rescue was difficult and at one point it seemed the dog had drowned.


Reuters has the video here.

This story was very sad and another chapter in the life of a family that suffered a horrible injustice.

T. Cullen Davis, still alive, was the O.J. Simpson of Texas. He should have spent the rest of his life in prison.

John Kerry had contacted Elizabeth Edwards a couple of days ago. He is very saddened about the whole situation, especially given the fact he had JRE thoroughly vetted back in 2004, and he was totally free of any taint of scandal.
