AMIR KHAN -- PAULA KAHN'T
The blagging technique worked a treat again but it turned out to be a night of crashing disappointment rather than redemption for Paula Radcliffe.
She cut a lonely figure during her warm up but once the raise was underway Radcliffe settled into the middle of the leading pack. She then moved to the front shortly before the end of the seventh lap.
But her lead was short lived.
She slipped further and further back before pulling up eight and a half laps from home. After the race Paula Radcliffe said she was disappointed but had no regrets.
So, another bad day at the office for Paula Radcliffe but a great day for Liu Xiang of China. He equalled Colin Jackson's 11-year-old world record by clocking 12.91 seconds to claim gold in the 110m hurdles.

Mr. Blogger, the Olympic will end on Sunday. What will happen to the Olympic stadium? Will they use it for other purposes?
Ever heard of the PARALYMPICS?
Only what this link "http://www.paralympic.org" describes.
