Golds? We're 3rd in the country rankings now :eek

Are all the sitting down events done now, if so where are our next gold medals coming from? Apart from Jessica Ennis' perhaps.

We're doing well in the rankings currently, but have we shot our...

I bottled out when it needed scripts to run.

Yay, another gold medal in a sitting down event. Womens's double skulls :yay:

The national flags superimposed in the water with CGI in the rowing events are clever. The boats go over them without too many artefacts as do waves, although oars do sometimes disappear.

He always seems to be in the crowd at the Olympics. And was lucky to get all those tickets.

Huge cheer was Jessica Ennis on the start line and another when she won.

And here are the originals

Gurning for gold.

Bloody hell you are up early.

Me like. No idea what they are protesting about though.

Well a week later and I've got one Co-codomal tablet left. I had weaned myself off them, eventually taking just half a tablet at a time because they appeared to give me deleterious side effects, and...

Yes, just now. Philip Hindes, Chris Hoy & Jason Kenny, beat the Froggies in the men's team sprint (indoor cycling). We are good at cycling it seems. That's 5 gold medals now.

Gold!

(Men's team sprint)

Not sure what the solution is, but it's a shame that we don't get to see some cycle racing because of it. So the Germans won because they were better at following orders.

Confirmed. Disqualified. No medal at all.

Victoria Pendleton & Jessica Varnish disqualified from the women's team sprint final*

As second fastest qualifiers, they were to race against the Chinese for the gold medal. Their transgression...

Cut out the middle man and send money direct to the BoE.

And here is a list of Russian attempts with associated outcomes: Russia's unmanned missions to Mars. Though some of those looks like successes, even when they didn't communicate.

Well done Wiggins. Another Olympic Gold. Quite remarkable achievement for someone with sideburns.

Square roots are awkward to find by trial and error in your head, but an easy algorithm exists that quickly converges to the answer. Newton's method.

Basically:

Well done, the British female coxless pair have done us proud. First camel toe of the 2012 Olympics and a gold medal to boot.

What square rooting algorithm do you use?

:wave:

Shame we can't see what date/time we were Stephed. Presumably it's a bot collector though.

I bet you wouldn't kiss his sideburns.

I rest my case. Olympian or not, he's a beardie weirdie.

14:15. He must be pretty good if he thinks it's a doddle to win an Olympic gold medal and has won the Tour de France 2012, but is this enough that we can disregard his sideburns? Surely this is...

One day people will realise that falling house prices are a good thing, except for bankers.

Do you have to have ticket to an event to get in? If so, what's the cheapest ticket?

Oh my god, I can't believe it, this is so unexpected. <Fishes out long prepared speech>

I would like to express my appreciation to the esteemed awards committee, the coconut and the spores or...

We are good at all the sitting down events allegedly.

Gunpowder was another possible factor. As were arse checks.

Do you need sponsorship?

Just pasted the top 21 country medal leaders (so that the UK would just scrape through) into a spread sheet and added the country's population, then sorted into ascending Pop/medals order, and lo,...

Can't see it happening here, where bankers and politicians are intimately connected.

New entrants will have to come under "other".

Nice to see some swimmers aren't wearing black figure concealing outfits.

BBC2 part 2 of 6, currently showing. I missed part 1.

Counting down the days to Mars' latest and badest nuclear powered explorer.

I bet it's been done. Just like that great app idea you get, only to find a zillion people have done something similar before you.

It's lonely out in space
On such a timeless flight
And I think it's gonna be a long long time
