Medal Count update
...
Go Aussies!


I think you'll find the way that they should be ordered is to prioritise on Gold, then Silver etc so:

Spoiler:  (Select to view)

Country                Gold    Silver    Bronze    Total 

China                    36      14          13          63 
United States          19      21        25          65 
Great Britain            12        7            8          27 
Australia                11      10          12          33 
Germany                  9      6            7          22 
South Korea              8      9            5          22 
Japan                      8      5            7          20 
Russia                      7      12          12          31 
Italy                        6      6            6          18 
Ukraine                    5      3            7          15 
France                      4      9          13          26 
Netherlands              3      5            4          12 
Belarus                              3            7          10


So Go Team GB!      


Depends on what you are counting. We are ahead on total medal count but I accept that you are temporarily ahead on total Gold medals. On a per capita basis we have lapped you.



According to the IOC the Medals Tables for each Olympi Games are defined as Count of
Gold, then Silver, the Bronze medals
Not on the Grand Total of medals won

so theoretically Outer Mongolia could beat everybody if they only won Gold medals

Holy Crap!!!! Two drops!  It was qualifying!?! Just grab the baton (sp?) and get across the finish line so you can quality!


Womens Beach Volleyball Finals:
Spoiler:  (Select to view)
USA vs. China - how exciting was that (for my fellow countrymen I mean). And the girls kicked their butts! They were quite excited after their victory I must say. What fun it was to watch them throughout the week.


Womens Gymnastics - Balance Beam:
Isn't Shawn Johnson just the cutest thing. She looks like a Chatty Cathy doll (and I should know... we have 35 of them  )
Spoiler:  (Select to view)
Congrats to Shawn. I was so happy for her. Probably happier for her win than for any of the other athletes.


Getting ready yo watch the Mens beach volleyball finals..... fingers crossed.
