  1. Twitter. Multiple users were watching stream and live tweeting the results. BTW Jeremy broke Youth World Record to lift a total of 297kg. He finished 2nd in Group B in 67kg.
  2. Mirabai improved her PB to lift 199 kg. She finished 4th behind Zhang on tiebreaker.
  3. `welcome back @gvaisakh
  4. Where can we find complete results? @Function CR Lee
  5. even we have a prominent leader who is Stalin, son of multiple time Tamil Nadu chief minister and present chief of DMK, principal opposition party in Tamil Nadu.
  6. I would like to clarify one thing. One big reason why some here have vote anywhere rules versus definite polling booths in India is because we follow Westminster system vs list based system in many countries. In Westminster system, we basically elect our MPs. And those MPs elect the PM. Or US equivalent would be if House of Representatives would elect President.
  7. Yes. There are ways around this. But this is to prevent casual double voting. Also, at times I feel this is just a relic from the past which could be ditched and thats why I am curious how other countries tackle this.
  8. We need this extra mechanism because there is no central voting list and there are many people who are registered as voters in multiple places. Even I am registered as a voter in both my home town/current residence of Ahmedabad and in Bangalore (where I studied). In recent past, Election Commission has been working on removing such ghost voters (me in Bangalore) but still considering the large numbers involved it is nearly impossible to delete all such unless the voter IDs are mapped to the unique identification number (Aadhar).
  9. Till date I have never received the voting slip from Election Commission ever. Every time, I get voting slip from the parties only. Though I don't use even that and simply go with my Voter ID card. To vote in India, you need to ensure that your name is their in the voting list which is publicly available. Each voter can only vote in his designated polling station (nearest to his residential address). You just need a proper government ID to vote once your name is there in the voting list. In India, we use a special ink on nail to indicate who has voted to prevent a person voting multiple times. I am wondering what mechanism is used in other countries to tackle this?

  12. Men's Trap qualified for final: * *not eligible for quota
  13. He is older than 11?
  14. World Number 1 Tai Tzu Ying has decided to retire after 2020 Olympics.
  15. To be fair to BWF, I don't think there are many Sports bodies with the guts to disqualify a bunch of top teams (specially Chinese) like they did in 2012. Also, it is very hard to prove fixing. I am assuming the fixing is not related to betting but about which team needs more points and matches at present. In such a case, there is no money trail to follow. Plus, the losing team can always feign an injury and say we were playing way below par so as not to risk increasing the problem. In London Olympics, this defence couldn't be used because the losing teams qualified to semi-finals and hence feigning injury was not practical. I share your frustration at this being disrespectful and cheating. But I just don't see how it can be punished.
  16. Maybe Sindo changed something, maybe a new advertising network.
  17. Sorry for the delay. I had some urgent work yesterday, so I couldn't vote. If nobody has an issue with an extension of a day, I can send my votes by tonight.
  18. Facing the same issue. I think there is a ad there which has been blocked.
  19. General elections are taking place in India as well. From sporting point of view, one constituency stands out: Jaipur Rural, where Olympian Krishna Poonia (6th in Women's Discus Throw at London Olympics) is the opposition candidate against sitting MP and current Sports Minister, Colonel Rajyavardhan Singh Rathore (Silver Medal in Men's Double Trap in Athens Olympics).
  20. Shooting: Delhi WC is already done. We should have 2-3 in each of Men's Rifle/Pistol and Women's Rifle/Pistol. In Shotgun, I think it is 1-3 in Men and 0-1 in Women. So, total should be around 12-13. Wrestling: Qualifying 5/6 in both Men's FS and Women's FS would be really hard. We are not that good in heavier classes. Also, 2 in GR would be dream come true. Reallistically, we should have 8-9 wrestlers. Hockey: both teams should qualify Archery: I am expecting atleast one team to miss the bus. Badminton: Agree.

  22. Just to clarify, I don't think you can swap the mixed team quota. You can swap a quota place only for another quota in the same gender. So, you can swap either Zuzana's quota (she can still participate with help of Mixed team quota) for a quota in Women's Air Pistol or Rifle or Erik's quota for a quota in Men's Air Pistol or Rifle.
  23. It would be interesting to see how Vinesh performs in her new weight class and how Deepak adjusts to the senior level.
  24. Bangladesh Cricket team was about to enter the mosque at the time of shooting but were lucky enough to escape the terrorist.
