The Olympic sailing course at Qingdao.
Profile pic. Should you be interested. Lakhsen, on the right, lost touch with him.
Mohammed, on the left, I'm still in touch with. He's living in Agadez, Niger.  Spending more time in town, Agadez, as bad people in the desert are spoiling the good life.

I don't get sailing.
A couple of years ago I was staying at Russell in the Bay Of Islands. I had a decent view of the harbour and I would see sailors in the morning casting off their yachts and they'd still be there in the evening, just going back and forth across the harbour all day. Why? To me you may as well take your car to an empty supermarket carpark and spend the day driving around it; you'd be achieving exactly the same.
Nix, Leyton Orient and Alloa Athletic supporting schmuck.

Chinese officials are trying to make the stuff go away. Hundreds of soldiers cleaned it up by hand in a seaside park Wednesday. About 10,000 ordinary citizens were doing the same along the shore, while more than 1,200 fishing and other boats hauled it in by net, the workers smiling and flashing the two-fingered victory sign to journalists.  
 
 
How does NASCAR deal with blue green algae?

Imagine being into a sport in which your main discussion point was either wind or algae.
Or being sued by the other team.
Makes me think my football loyalties are well and truly misplaced.

Just saw it on the news, I suppose they dump it further out to sea so it can float back in 6 months time or dump it in Tibet??
