Between the heavy rains on Friday and the fog on Sunday, Saturday was the archetypal fall day on an American college campus.
I can confidently use such a highfalutin word referring to Jungian psychology after attending a lecture by one of my son's profs at a parent's weekend event.

Sixteen cities will host the 2010 Tour of California when the fifth edition of the bike race rolls out May 16 to 23.
This is a couple of months later than the previous four Tours of California that were scheduled in February. The new schedule will surely mean drier, warmer weather for the cyclists and spectators, as well as a bone fide mountain stage that ends at Big Bear Lake.
It also means that four of America's top cyclists — defending champion Levi Leipheimer and Lance Armstrong, George Hincapie and David Zabriskie — are choosing the California race over the Giro d'Italia, the three-week Grand Tour that also runs in May.
Here's the schedule: …

“Race Across the Sky” is a documentary on this year's epic Leadville 100 bike race that featured a rematch between David Wiens and Lance Armstrong and about 1,000 mountain bike riders.
Wiens, at 45, had won the grueling mountain bike race six straight times, including in 2008 when Armstrong decided to get back into cycling. Armstrong, 37, had won the Tour de France 7 times, but really wanted this Leadville win in his adopted state of Colorado.
Tonight's documentary is being billed as a one-night event at theaters across the country. It runs tonight at 8 p.m. ET, 7 p.m. CT, 6 p.m. MT with tape delay to 8 p.m. PT.
