The Olympics has come and gone and usual our darling country performed poorly. We won three bronze and one silver making it a total of four medals, and we were ranked forty-four out of the eighty-one countries that participated. The list ranked was sixty-nine.
Some new records were set and some old ones broken. The overall organization of the event by China was superb and the next stage for Olympics is London come 2012. The Beijing Olympics was said to be the most expensive to host as it cost China over 40 billion to host and the rest of the other bla blab bla.
In last four Olympics, I’ve noticed a winning trend. Six countries always get to find themselves among the first eight and these countries are USA, China, Great Britain, Germany and Australia.
In Atlanta 96 USA came first then Russia, Germany, China, France, Italy, Australia and Cuba.
In Sydney 2000 it was USA, Russia, China, Australia, Germany, France, Italy and Netherlands. In Athens 2004 it was USA, China, Russia, Australia, Japan, Germany, Franc and Italy.
This year’s own at China was China, USA, Russia, GB, Germany, Australia, Korea and Japan.
I know that at the end of the Vision 2020 program by the federal Government, we will sure break into that top rank. So help us God.
BOSNIAN POLICE ARRESTS A PIGEON
BOSNIAN police have impounded a pigeon after discovering prisoners used it to smuggle drugs into one of the country's highest security jails, an official said today.
"The guards suspected the animal might be involved in drug smuggling once they noticed four prisoners visibly intoxicated shortly after the pigeon landed on a prison window," Zenica prison official Josip Pojavnik said.
All four inmates had tested positive for heroin, said Mr Pojavnik, adding disciplinary proceedings had been launched against the inmates.The drugs had probably been stuffed into tiny bags attached to the legs of the carrier pigeon, which one of the prisoners had previously been allowed to keep as a pet in his cell, he said.
"We suspect that the pigeon carried the drugs from Tuzla," a town around 70km north-east of Zenica in central Bosnia, he said.
The pigeon had been taken into custody by police, who have launched an investigation aimed at identifying those who had loaded it up with the drugs.
"We do not know what to do with the pigeon, but for the time being it will remain behind bars," Mr Pojavnik said.
The incident had prompted the prison administration to consider closing down a prisoner pigeon-breeding project established in a ward of the jail as part of a rehabilitation program.
BROTHER AND SISTER HIRES A HITMAN TO KILL DAD TO PREVENT MONEY GOING TO JEHOVA WITNESS
A FORMER teacher and her brother who hired a hitman to murder their elderly father were simply driven by greed, a court has been told.
Maria Angelina Stallone, 44, and Dominic Anthony Natale, 46, are accused of plotting to have their 83-year-old father Dominico Natale murdered in September, 2006.
But their plans were foiled when the hitman they hired was an undercover policeman, the Victorian Supreme Court has been told.Ms Stallone, of Fitzroy, and Mr Natale, of Irymple near Mildura, have each pleaded guilty to one count of incitement to murder.
Prosecutor Geoffrey Horgan SC said the pair had acted out of fear they would miss out on their share of family properties their father was selling in Preston and North Fitzroy in Melbourne.
He said the pair believed the money would end up going to the Jehovah's Witnesses.
"This crime is a particularly unpalatable one. It's motivated simply by greed,"
"She said she didn't want him to suffer but he was going to turf them out and wasn't treating them as his own children,"
