China Daily 0806 C4.Indd
4 olympics MONDAY, AUGUST 6, 2012 CHINA DAILY Wu equals medals record with 3m triumph By ROBERT SMITH in London Agence France-Presse China’s Wu Minxia won the women’s 3m springboard diving gold medal to draw level with Guo Jingjing as the most-decorated div- er at the Olympics with six medals on Sunday. World champion Wu totaled 414.00 points from her fi ve dives to beat teammate He Zi (379.20) and Mexico’s Laura Sanchez (362.40). Wu’s victory was China’s fi ft h gold medal from fi ve events as it attempts an unprecedented sweep of all eight diving medals in London. China won seven out of eight diving events at the Beijing Games four years ago, having won all 10 diving gold medals at last year’s Shanghai World Championships. Wu reeled off an impeccable back 2.5 somersault on her last dive to clinch the gold medal with a score of 85.50. She led aft er the opening round with 79.50 for a back 2.5 somer- sault from Italy’s Tania Cragnotto and He. He nailed 83.70 for a forward 3.5 somersault to take the lead from Wu (79.75) with Cragnotto drop- ping back to third. But Wu retrieved the lead with a gem forward 3.5 somersault that netted her 85.25. Another exquisite dive, a reverse 2.5 somersault, earned Wu 84.00 to give her a 13.50 points buffer over He going into the fifth and fi nal round. Wu, who won the synchronized 3m springboard with He, made sure of her fi rst individual Olympic gold medal with her showstopper fi nal dive to beat her teammate by 34.80 points. -

By Nick Butler (http://www.insidethegames.biz/writers/24053/nick-butler) at the Main Press Centre on Barra Olympic Park in Rio de Janeiro 2 comments Sunday, 31 July 2016 () Names of all 98 athletes to have tested positive following targeted re-analysis of drug tests at the 2008 and 2012 Olympic Games in Beijing and London respectively will not be confirmed until after Rio 2016, it was revealed here today. It is because the legal process is continuing to analyse each athlete implicated on a case-by-case basis. All those to have tested positive have, however, been barred from taking part at Rio 2016 with the International Olympic Committee (IOC) claiming this fulfills their primary obligation to stop drug cheats participating here. A total of 98 positives emerged out of over 1,200 re-tested samples from both Beijing 2008 and London 2012. Only two of these have so far been officially confirmed and stripped of medals by the IOC. Both are female weightlifters, Ukraine's under 58 kilograms London 2012 bronze medallist Yulia Kalina and Turkey's under 48kg Beijing 2008 silver medallist Sibel Özkan. "The issue of when they are fully sanctioned will happen later," IOC Presidential spokesman Mark Adams told insidethegames today. "Our aim is to stop them [those implicated] coming to Rio." He added that it is "very unlikely" that any more cases will be confirmed during Rio 2016. This is primarily for logistical reasons, as all those involved will be so busy during the Olympics. Many of the cases have been announced publicly, either by National Olympic Committees or by International Federations. -

Nou weet hy alles (natuurlik tot die volgende keer). So het ek onlangs iets geleer oor iemand – ‘n groot gees in die sportwêreld – wat dekades gelede groot spore getrap het, en in Kiwiland woon. Ongelukkig het ek as gevolg van omstandighede nie voorheen van hierdie man geweet nie, maar ek is baie dankbaar dat die geleentheid hom voorgedoen het. Lees gerus deel 1 van twee artikels oor hierdie man. Soos sy naam aandui, is hy baie kosbaar vir my in terme van die nuwe insigte wat ek gekry het nadat ek hom ontmoet het. Die Springbokke het ons weer rede gegee om te juig, en Kiwi-Brokkies juig saam. Dan het ons klandestiene skrywer Loeloeraai ‘n slag weer geskryf.

Origins of Canadian Olympic Weightlifting
1 Page # June 30, 2011. ORIGINS OF CANADIAN OLYMPIC WEIGHTLIFTING INTRODUCTION The author does not pretend to have written everything about the history of Olympic weightlifting in Canada since Canadian Weightlifting has only one weightlifting magazine to refer to and it is from the Province of Québec “Coup d’oeil sur l’Haltérophilie”, it is understandable that a great number of the articles are about the Quebecers. The researcher is ready to make any modification to this document when it is supported by facts of historical value to Canadian Weightlifting. (Ce document est aussi disponible en langue française) The early history of this sport is not well documented, but weightlifting is known to be of ancient origin. According to legend, Egyptian and Chinese athletes demonstrated their strength by lifting heavy objects nearly 5,000 years ago. During the era of the ancient Olympic Games a Greek athlete of the 6th century BC, Milo of Crotona, gained fame for feats of strength, including the act of lifting an ox onto his shoulders and carrying it the full length of the stadium at Olympia, a distance of more than 200 meters. For centuries, men have been interested in strength, while also seeking athletic perfection. Early strength competitions, where Greek athletes lifted bulls or where Swiss mountaineers shouldered and tossed huge boulders, gave little satisfaction to those individuals who wished to demonstrate their athletic ability. During the centuries that followed, the sport continued to be practiced in many parts of the world. Weightlifting in the early 1900s saw the development of odd-shaped dumbbells and kettle bells which required a great deal of skill to lift, but were not designed to enable the body’s muscles to be used efficiently.
