Has anyone noticed that the Yanks are not too happy about lying second in the Olympic medals table? In fact, most of their sports channels are showing a medals table with the US on top, on the basis that they have two more medals overall than the Chinese. As for us poor Brits, we're at number four, below the Russkies. Have a look at the CNN website to see what I mean.

Personally, I'm amazed at the Chinese medal total. I can only suggest that Western methods of detecting an illegal steroid presence cannot cope with Chinese herbal medicine or alternatively, there is something to be said for a diet of boiled rice and deep fried chicken foot.
