Iran @ The 2012 Summer Olympics: Day 14 [August 10] - Live Updates

NBC just showed the medal ceremony with the US national anthem playing and they left Goodarzi totally out of the frame when the flags where hoisted, positioning the camera to capture the Uzbeki wrestler next to the USA gold winner (these techniques are called "nonverbal communication" out here in the west.) I guess I know why I couldn't find a PhD advisor when I was in the graduate school a few years ago and had to walk away with a master's degree... Long story but there definitely was a large political component to it. Feels strange and tough when you are in the middle of two countries which don't like each other, one your mother country, the other your adopted one.

so sad...

^by the way Dokhtar jan how did you make your signature because I was wondering how to make it once the olympics have finished and we have our final medal count?
