India win 10th gold

Wow what a day it has been for india today in the asian games 2010. This time the medal comes from boxing, Vikas krishnan has taken the victory by five points to four.
I am simply amazed by the results that have come in today. Simply wow, it seems like vikas had a very defensive approach and took the points by simply hitting and dodging. Vikas Krishnan gets the gold in the men's 60 kg boxing bout. Here is the breakup of the points scored, at the end of the first round it was 1 - 1.
Our Tenth Gold

india win 9th gold

Wow what a time the athletics contingent from India is having.
I got reports that India won its 9th gold in the Mens 400 m hurdles, Clearly the coach is doing something right, GANAPATHIPLACKAL ABRAHAM Joseph does it this time and hey it was a good timing too. He clocked his seasons best of 49.96 and was way ahead of his rivals, though by just a nose length :)
Go India, further details can be found here India 9th gold in the Asian games

Gold number eight

India win their eight gold of the asiad 2010 in china.
This time the gold came in the 400M hurdles.
AKKUNJI Ashwini Chidananda , never heard of her before but i guess the media is going to go visiting to see the place where she was born :) , which is good news atleast it is not the usual cricketers bestowed with the media presence and advertising riches.
Yahh for India. She clocked 56.15 her personal best.

india win 4 - 1 vs singapore

India did the impossible by beating Singapore by a score of 4-1 in the Asian games. Singapore are ranked much higher, whohoo this is really good news, all i could dig up were the goal scorers. I dont have much information will post up as soon as i find out more. But as usual Indian media channels are not even bothered to cover this? I hope later in the day India play well against Iraq, this is the senior team playing Iraq in Dubai. All the best.
The scorers in order
India:
1-0 Sheikh Jewel Raja (13')
2-0 Balwant Singh (64')
3-0 Milan Singh (68')
4-0 M Maithani (76')
Singapore: Luo (85')

red waterfall in the antarctic

When the glaciers are bleeding red into the ocean, wow never heard of this before and it is fascinating. Signs of the revelations slowly coming true? I had heard of the red rain that happened in kerala a few years back, but the indian media did not cover that story, this one is equally baffling but there seems to be an explanation for it.
