Olympic swimming has faced criticism after the qualifying times for 17 swimmers competing in the Rio Games were called into question. According to a report from the Guardian, nine competitors had entry times that did not match those listed at the World Aquatics Championships held in Kazan last year, and the other eight had times from events they didn't compete in or were disqualified from. The 17 athletes include 11 men and six women from 16 different countries. The International Swimming Federation (FINA) said the timing mistakes were made by the Rio Organizing Committee, but the ROC says the final responsibility for making sure the times are correct lies with FINA. All the swimmers involved were selected for the Games under FINA's "universality rule." This allows countries where no swimmer has achieved the qualifying time to pick one male and one female athlete to compete in the Games. Two hundred and twenty swimmers have been selected under this ruling. Kenyan swimmer Hamdan Bayusuf is one of the 17 swimmers whose entry time for Rio Olympics has changed. The actual results sheet from the race shows Bayusuf finished the race in 1:07. There is no suggestion the Kenyan or any of the other swimmers in Rio knew about the changed times. Timings from the Kazan championships were previously questioned last August after the Mexican swimming federation admitted it falsified many of its swimmers’ entry times at the event. FINA's executive director, Cornel Marculescu, refused to punish Mexico at the time as none of its swimmers advanced to the semi-finals or finals. John Leonard, the executive director of the World Swimming Coaches Association, criticized FINA's actions, saying it "clearly does not care about veracity in entry times to its events," the Guardian reports. The governing body did eventually suspend and fine Mexico after it pulled out of hosting the 2017 world championships. WSCA president George Block said he was worried by the discrepancies and insisted the universality rule was "something coaches have been concerned about for quite a few years." The US has pushed hard for FINA to fully switch to an electronic system for entries and seedings, but applications are still largely processed by hand. FINA refused to comment on the latest scandal to hit swimming, but it has recently asked for an independent report which it says will ensure "that good governance principles are properly implemented by FINA in an ever-changing modern sport environment."

Last year winner was hobbit, let's see if he can do it again (copy pasted from last year thread ) Here's how it works: We give a rank to each teams from 1 to 16 16 = the team you think has the best chance to win the Stanley Cup 15 = the team you think has the 2nd best chance to win the Stanley Cup ... 1 = the team you think has no chance to win the first round After each round, you are awarded points using the rank you gave to the winning teams 1st round = rank x 1pts 2nd round = rank x 2pts 3rd round = rank x 4pts final round = rank x 8pts Example: I give Chicago a rank of 14 and they lose in the 3rd round. 1st round = 14 x 1 = 14 pts 2nd round = 14 x 2 = 28 pts 3rd round = 0 pts final round = 0 pts So Chicago gave me 42pts. We do this with every team and add up all the points. You can post your picks here or send them to me by PM if you don't want everyone to copy you before playoffs starts. I will post everyone's picks together when the playoffs begins. You have until Wednesday April 13 (until the first game starts) to send me your picks or make changes to them. Let's try to get every hockey fan in this pool. The more the merrier! Here is the NHL playoffs tree to help you with your choices. http://www.nhl.com/ice/stanleycup.htm?season=20152016&round=pst Good luck to everyone!!

AMD today announced that it will webcast live from Ruby Skye during the Game Developers Conference in San Francisco. This press event, entitled “Capsaicin,” will be hosted by Radeon Technologies Group’s Senior Vice President and Chief Architect Raja Koduri on Monday, March 14 at 4:00 PM PT (6:00 PM CT/7:00 PM ET), and showcase AMD’s world-class hardware, software and gaming partners. As the press release reads: “Named after the compound that delivers a pepper’s spicy kick, “Capsaicin” will explore the inner essence of the graphics processing unit (GPU) and how it powers innovations in gaming and virtual reality. The webcast will feature an inside look at the latest technological advancements affecting the enthusiast and developer communities as they approach the burgeoning virtual reality market.” The really interesting thing here is that AMD will showcase Polaris for the first time. After all, the press release claims that AMD will previews its new silicon, therefore we can’t wait to see what the red team has in store for us. And then there is this, so we can safely assume that Polaris will be previewed. For those interested, a real-time video webcast of the event will be accessible on AMD’s Investor Relations home page. A replay of the webcast can be accessed a few hours after the conclusion of the live event and will be available for one year after the event. A replay of the webcast will be accessible on the AMD YouTube channel.
