lol @ comparing one country to a continent. srsly

He's also using a silly map projection. According to that type of projection Greenland is the size of Africa.

A better projection is this one as it shows the sizes relative to each other more realistically:

Loads of other countries have mountains too. Arguably the most hardcore countries should be the Himalayan ones but they ain't shit when it comes to Winter olympics... well maybe China is decent.

The UK has hardly any mountains that bring good slopes

The weather is hardly ever really cold except for freak snow showers

If lakes do freeze over then you'll fall through

I appreciate your thorough and insightful take on it. I couldn't be bothered to get another graphic.

I always read about how "our" winter olympians are basically spending 12 months abroad and shit, training. In places like the USA. The only reason we probably even participate is because of the massive funding given in general to sports, because it sure as hell isn't a natural thing like other countries.

Parents are visiting London tomorrow to visit a single furniture store before returning again.

How fucked up is that.

Out of curiousity, if you live in Norway and buy furniture in the London, the store either has to ship (by boat) and truck the furniture over OR does the store have various warehouses all over europe...shipping the furniture from the nearest warehouse?

Well you could use it to help realise that the shortest distances between america and asia is over the arctic

but i think they've only started doing that recently cos the technology is mature enough + russia no longer shoots down everything that comes into its airspace

usmarine would need to fill in here for that one, but I'm pretty sure airlines fly over the arctic these days

Some of our skaters train in Ellenton Florida. That's 20 minutes south of me. Fancy refrigeration devices are to blame. Although they aren't really contenders. Rookies they are.

I'm actually glad to see CAN, GBR, and USA on the podium. The others, meh.

Winter Olympics: Ireland’s women’s bobsleigh team has been cleared to compete at the Winter Olympics, which gets underway in Vancouver on Friday. A late legal challenge from the Australian Olympic Committee, to the Court of Arbitration of Sport (CAS) had threatened to override Ireland’s qualification on their claim that one Oceanic team was entitled to compete.
But after a lengthy deliberation, which had been preceded by the Olympic Council of Ireland (OCI) presenting a vehement counter-argument, it was decided tonight that both Ireland and Australia would be allowed compete – the only compromise that was seen as acceptable to both National Olympic Committees, even though that entails a derogation of the Olympic competition rules. The Australians, thus, become the 21st team to qualify.

The news comes as a major relief for of Aoife Hoey and Claire Bergin, who have already been living in the Olympic Village since last Monday week, while the Australians, Astrid Loch-Wilkinson and Cecilia McIntosh, have been staying elsewhere and training at the Whistler venue.

The problem arose when the Australian’s submitted a lengthy appeal to CAS contending that they should be given a position in the bobsleigh line-up of 20; this resulted from the Austrian team withdrawing, bumping Ireland up to 19th in the rankings, while Japan was offered the vacant 20th spot as the top team in Asia.

The Australians argued that their team should be entered under the wild-card provision, which makes one slot in the 20-team field available to Oceania and another for Asia, according to the rules of FIBT, the international bobsleigh federation.

OCI president Patrick Hickey had stated his great concern should Ireland be cast aside by CAS, telling the Olympic website, Rings: “It would be outrageous if those girls were stripped of their accreditation and sent back home to Ireland,” said Hickey.

“We’re already suffering from the football (case) of Thierry Henry scoring a goal with his hand and eliminating us from the World Cup finals. And if something like this happened it would be catastrophe altogether.”

True that.

It would of never have been a goal without his hand, though.
