I have been watching Belgian tv for the past 5 hours and didn't hear anything new :p 

 

There were 3 metro stations named:

- Maalbeek

- Schuman

- Art-Loi/Kunst-Wet (French/Dutch)

 

At all three people were coming out covered in blood, but there has only been an explosion at Maalbeek. The others are close to Maalbeek and quite a few people walked from the metro that was hit (or a metro that was stopped) undergrounds to Schuman and Art-Loi, were they came up. 

 

This was reason for confusion on Belgian tv this morning, but now it's clear that only Maalbeek was actually hit.

Well, right  now it is about two men barricaded in the station of Maalbeek. No any news about that.

There's quite some nuances needed in there. Pig caps were references to threats that were made to mosques and muslims in general and thing thing about spring instead of Easter is just not true. One magazine of one shop had the word "spring" instead of "Easter" on the frontpage of their little paper (not a newspaper, but the paper of some shop), but in the paper they used Easter everywhere.

good to here about easter, but with those caps problem was that.....he got arrested from what i know. For what? Is this freedom? I watched it on yt and seriously...it looked dangerous for me, police seemed to be quite aggresive towards him and journalists...and not towards screaming and throwing stones muslims, well, i meant this when i wrote that it goes the wrong way.

 

Aggressive guests have bigger rights than defensive hosts, incredible. Are muslims arrested for wearing cow caps? Retoric question ;p

I fell in love with sports.....since i first seen it

They mostly got arrested for using idiotic Nazi symbols, by the way.

ok, good, but still it looked like a "host" is threattened by showing sth in his own country. This is quite absurd for me, i think Slavic people react in more "healthy" way, i mean psychologically we are more straightforward, we are active let`s say and allowing only to be here but on our culture rights. If someone dislikes it or tries to force his rules...bye bye

    • Here's all the confirmed NHLers so far that I could find. Some big names are going. Once the 1st round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs is over, more names should be added    Canada Macklin Celebrini, F (San Jose Sharks) Travis Konecny, F (Philadelphia Flyers) Brandon Montour, D (Seattle Kraken) Ryan O'Reilly, F (Nashville Predators) Zayne Parekh, D (Calgary Flames) (only pre-tournament games are confirmed) Travis Sanheim, D (Philadelphia Flyers) Mackenzie Weegar, D (Calgary Flames)   Bo Horvat and Kent Johnson aren't confirmed but they are both willing to play if asked apparently. Sidney Crosby is considering.    Czechia Filip Hronek, D (Vancouver Canucks) Jakub Lauko, F (Boston Bruins) Karel Vejmelka, G (Utah Hockey Club) Dan Vladar, G (Calgary Flames)   David Pastrnak is possible    Finland Justus Annunen, G (Nashville Predators) Juuso Parssinen, F (New York Rangers) Juuse Saros, G (Nashville Predators) Teuvo Teravainen, F (Chicago Blackhawks) Eeli Tolvanen, F (Seattle Kraken)    Germany Philipp Grubauer, G (Seattle Kraken) Moritz Seider, D (Detroit Red Wings)    Sweden Rasmus Andersson, D (Calgary Flames) Mikael Backlund, F (Calgary Flames) Leo Carlsson, F (Anaheim Ducks) William Eklund, F (San Jose Sharks) Filip Forsberg, F (Nashville Predators) Adam Larsson, D (Seattle Kraken) Isac Lundestroem, F (Anaheim Ducks) Marcus Pettersson, D (Vancouver Canucks) Alexander Wennberg, F (San Jose Sharks)   Mika Zibanejad is also likely.

    • Regarding the swimming they have added the 800m for men and the 1500m for women so cutting numbers would be odd. 
    • That quota I’ve been told by an athlete aiming to qualify who I know online. 
    • Has the quota for Canada been offically confirmed anyway, or is that just a rumour? I can't find anything on google about it (nor the suggested quota for England's athletes someone posted earlier).   12 per gender would make sense (it's roughly what Canada sent to Birmingham). 12 overall seems dumb.
    • Some sports have qualification systems   3x3 basketball (wheelchair) Para-cycling Powerlifting Weightlifting
    • In the past few games, Canada (and other nations) was given an overall athlete quota which they then divided it through the various sports.
    • Whose decision was this, Team Canada's or the Organising committes?
