Doctor Alex Smith

He may not be my favourite but I feel like we could acknowledge he's a med student from time to time so for his birthday I turned him into the "I diagnose you with dead" meme

Saluting the power of sport

Sport has a cunning, yet magical way of bringing people together, no matter one’s race, creed or colour. Recent impressions on the official South African Government X account which is managed by the Government Communication and Information System (GCIS), has shown that a social media post on swimmer Tatjana Smith clinching gold in the women’s 100m breaststroke at the 2024 Olympics garnered 68,144…

Despite this, Sasol maintained a strong balance sheet and announced plans to focus on cost-saving measures and advancing its transition to sustainable energy sources. The poor numbers had been discounted in the Sasol share price, which actually rose 3% in the days following the release of results. Watch out for our interview with Sasol’s new CEO Simon Baloyi on Monday. Once known as the Roodepoort Rocket because of its high leverage to the gold price, DRDGOLD is nowadays a steady-as-she-goes stock with the share price up just 1% in the past year despite a 16% rise in the rand gold price.

Annual inflation dropped to 4.6%, and core inflation to 4.3%, the lowest since May 2022. Falling fuel and food prices contributed to this trend, signalling potential interest rate cuts by the Reserve Bank.

 The nation is mourning the passing of Dr. William Smith, a revered education pioneer and Rhodes University alumnus who transformed South African education through innovative teaching methods and televised lessons. Smith established Star Schools and then developed educational videos that were distributed through the SABC – his Basic Mathematics video rated in the UK as the best in the world in 1984. By 2000 his programmes were reaching over 100 million viewers in 28 African countries.

Rat infestation, racist message at the Olympic Games

While athletes rejoice in their first Olympic victories, spectators continue to be perplexed by another embarrassment at the largest sporting event of 2024.

Rat infestation

During the Paris Olympics, citizens and visitors to the French capital saw cat-sized rats on the streets, Daily Star reports.

Up to two inches of rain fell on the French capital in 48 hours, forcing six million rats out of their underground shacks. Not only that, the sight of them scurrying around restaurants and bars horrified spectators who had travelled from all over the world for the sporting spectacle.

Earlier it became known that the triathlon training swim at the Paris Olympics was cancelled for the second time. The athletes were again hampered by polluted water in the Seine.

Child rapist at the Olympic Games

The stands booed Dutch beach volleyball player Steven van de Velde, who served time for raping a 12-year-old girl. This is how the audience met the athlete at a match of the Summer Olympics in Paris. The athlete did not react in any way to the negative reaction of the audience, only took off his sunglasses and wiped sweat from his forehead.

Velde performed together with Matthew Immers against Italian athletes Alex Ranghieri and Adrian Carambula.

First medals

The 23-year-old won bronze in the final of the 100m breaststroke swim last night, which was won by South Africa’s Tatjana Smith, with China’s Tang Qianting finishing second.

Sligo-born McSharry, who hails from Grange, became the first Irish athlete to win an Olympic swimming medal since Michelle Smith won four medals in Atlanta in 1996.

Manika Batra made history by becoming the first Indian table tennis player to reach the singles pre-quarterfinals at the Olympic Games with a fluent 4-0 win over world number 18 and home favourite Prithika Pavade here on Monday. The 29-year-old Manika dominated from start to finish for a 11-9 11-6 11-9 11-7 win over Prithika, who has Indian roots.

Investigation over “racist message”

Great Britain rugby sevens player Amy Wilson-Hardy is under investigation over a racist message, the British Olympic Association has confirmed.

A screenshot of Wilson-Hardy’s WhatsApp message appeared on Instagram and the person who posted it accused her of racism. A BOA spokesperson said:

The British Olympic Association has been made aware of the image posted on social media and is investigating.

Wilson-Hardy played in the 17-7 quarter-final defeat to the United States on Monday that dashed Team Great Britain’s medal hopes in Paris 2024. The 32-year-old, who represented England in the XVs game, was part of the GB Olympic team that finished fourth in Rio 2016.

Trump shocked by Olympic opening ceremony

Donald Trump called the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games in Paris “terrible.” He said in an interview with Foxnews that Christians around the world are outraged because of the parody of the Last Supper. Mr. Trump said that if he had been US president during the 2028 Olympic Games in Los Angeles and could have influenced the organisers, he would not have allowed Christian values to be mocked.

Parigi 2024, Ceccon medaglia d'oro nei 100 dorso

(Adnkronos) - Thomas Ceccon vince la medaglia d'oro nei 100 dorso alle Olimpiadi di Parigi 2024. L'azzurro trionfa in finale ed è il nuovo campione olimpico. E' la seconda medaglia d'oro per l'Italia dopo quella conquistata da Nicolò Martinenghi nei 100 rana. In totale, il medagliere azzurro comprende 2 ori, 2 argenti e 3 bronzi. Ceccon, terzo a metà gara, cambia marcia nella seconda vasca e trionfa con l'accelerazione strepitosa negli ultimi 25 metri. Chiude in 52''00 precedendo il cinese Xu Jiayu, medaglia d'argento in 52''32, e lo statunitense Ryan Murphy, medaglia di bronzo in 52''39. Benedetta Pilato sfiora il podio nella finale dei 100 rana e chiude al quarto posto (1'05''60), ad un solo centesimo dal bronzo. L'oro va alla sudafricana Tatjana Smith (1'05''28), che precede la cinese Tang Qianting (1'05''54) e l'irlandese Mona Mc Sharry (1'05''59). ---sportwebinfo@adnkronos.com (Web Info) Read the full article

people changing their name is my worst enemy, I know who Tatjana Schoenmaker is, if you say Schoenmaker, it's her but if you say Smith, I don't know who that is

Swimming Continued

My absolute favorite part of swimming wasn’t winning, it wasn’t making a best time, it wasn’t beating a rival, it was a really good backstroke start.  You just feel so accomplished and it’s fun!  My coaches always yelled at me to focus more about going out instead of up with a super arched back, but it was just fun to go up and arched lol.

Good for Donata Katai, being the first black swimmer from Zimbabwe!!!  

The best feeling in the world was taking off your cap at the end of a race before hopping out.  It was FREE!

It’s always fun when the swimmers in outside lanes win, unless you’re the swimmer in the middle lanes lol.

The difference between the non-seeded heats and the seeded heats is so ridiculous to watch.  

Oooooooooo Taylor Ruck starting on the lane line.  Ouchhhh.

NEW OLYMPIC RECORD!!!  GOOD JOB KYLIE MASSE!

All right Regan, keep it up!!!  NEW OLYMPIC RECORD!!!!  Sorry Kylie :/

KAYLEE FREAKING MCKEOWN OH MY GODDDDDDD WHY IS SHE SO FREAKING FAST HOLY SHIT.

200 free is boring without Phelps.  I said it.

Okay Kieran, don’t drop the ball on this one. 

100 breast is boring. 

All right Lydia Jacoby, don’t let us down!!!

WTF is Tatjana Schoenmaker doing??  That is the weirdest breaststroke I have ever seen.  I guess it’s effective, but still…

Lilly girl, I am loving your suit.  It’s so extra and phenomenal.

That was not the best for you Lilly.  Stop looking at the competitors!!!!

Honestly swimming in general is boring with Phelps, Adrian, Lochte, and Thorpe.  Everyone is so serious and is showing zero emotion.

GET IT TOGETHER OLYMPIC SWIMMERS AND DON’T FUCK AROUND WITH THE STARTS.  YOU ARE ALL BETTER THAN THAT.

Ryan Murphy what exactly are you doing in this swim??  

FINALLY KATIE LEDECKY TIME.  Her technique AND strategy for this event is so amazing, I love her so much and she is my role model.

Okay but can we also talk about Summer MacIntosh??  14 YEARS OLD??  

I cannot wait until the final between Queen Ledecky and Ariarne Titmus.

There is nothing more exciting than the men’s free relay fighting between the USA and Australia.  

NEVER EVER EVER UNDERESTIMATE THE AMERICAN MEN’S RELAY.  

Yessssss swim offs are so fun!!!
