What a bunch of garbage answers! From just guessing to off topic to telling me to figure it out by giving me an Olympic link. Maybe I accidentally posted in the elementary school Q/A area? If you don't know don't waste the space/time!



Answer
I would absolutely definitely say it is China. China is in all sports in this Beijing Olympics Games 2008 as well as being the host nation. For this Beijing Olympics Games 2008 in joint second place in the number events that a nation is taking part. I would say it is the USA and Russia. In third place I would say it is Australia and Great Britain. In fourth place I would say it is Germany and in fifth place I would say it is Canada. In sixth place I would say it is Brazil.

This is a crystal clear historical statistical question in the making!!!!! First question we all need to ask is... how many Olympics Games events are there in total? Once we know that and then we can add up the total amount for each country participating in various events. Then we know the ratio for each country. Second question we need to ask is why countries only enter into these sports but no other sporting events? Is it the sport they have the best chance of winning, is a question of money, is it the only sport they know in their country, is it they have not qualified for that sporting events, is it cultural reasonings, is it political, is it social, is it physical, is it indirect prejudice, is it a question of top facilities and world class facilities and others.

For example I totally agree that the African Nations have not enter any athletes in Gymnastics, Sailing events, Cycling events, Rowing events and even the basic Swimming events. Maybe they do not have the top Sporting Facilities and top World Class Trainers to train them all. Is it basically the question about money and proper facilities. I would like to see many countries throughout the world to participate in many events in the future Olympic Games yet to come.

By checking the schedules section of the Beijing Olympics Games 2008, I can calculate in total - there are 302 Gold medals to be won in other words there are 302 events in total. As well as there are only 38 Olympics Games Sporting categories of which 302 Gold medals can be won.

There are 47 events in Athletics. There are 34 events in Swimming. There are 18 events in Wrestling. There are 15 events in Weightlifting. There are 15 events in Shooting. There are 14 events in Rowing. There are 14 events in Judo. There are 14 events in Gymnastics Artistics. There are 12 events in Canoe/Kayak - Flatwater. There are 11 events in Sailing. There are 11 events in Boxing. There are 10 events in Fencing. There are 10 events in Cycling - Track. There are 8 events in Taekwondo. There are 8 events in Diving. There are 6 events in Equestrian. There are 5 events in Badminton. There are 4 events in Table Tennis. There are 4 events in Archery. There are 4 events in Cycling - Road. There are 4 events in Canoe/Kayak - Slalom. There are 4 events in Tennis. There are 2 events in Basketball. There are 2 events in Beach Volleyball. There are 2 events in Cycling - BMX. There are 2 events in Cycling - Mountain Bike. There are 2 events in Football (Soccer). There are 2 events in Gymnastic Rhythmic. There are 2 events in Trampoline. There are 2 events in Handball. There are 2 events in Hockey. There are 2 events in Modern Pentathlon. There are 2 events in Synchronized Swimming. There are 2 events in Triathlon. There are 2 events in Volleyball. There are 2 events in Water Polo. There are 1 event in Baseball. There are 1 event in Softball.

The smaller countries have very small or a tiny chance winning any medal because the large countries like USA, Russia, China, Australia, Canada, Germany, Brazil and Great Britain winning all the Gold medals in the Olympics due to their larger sporting populations and have a wider choice of selection of the sporting population and sporting events. It is really cater for their larger sporting populations and richer countries. The other countries do not have a chance at all and do not cater for sports for the poorer nations. For example the nation of Vietnam which plays the sport of Sepaktakraw and won it in the Asian Games. India another country which has very large population and even bigger than China population now but plays the sports of Kabaddi which was play in the Asian Games and also won it. India is also good in Cricket. Why is it - you do not see any Indian Subcontinent countries winning anything in the world largest sporting event - The Olympics as well as no Indian Subcontinent Asian person achieveing anything in any sporting events. There are many races and there are many ethnic groups or ethnic minorities - African, Afro-Caribbean, Chinese, Arab, South American, Hispanics, Slavs, Europeans, Japanese, Korean and others which are totally succeeding but none at all from the Indian Subcontinent which is absolutely shocking. Something has to be done as soon as possible because it is totally bad for the World Development and the World Civilisation. I feel that the Indian Subcontinent has been left out in all this, maybe isolated from all this and have been neglected totally.

Naturally ridding my backyard of green ants and meat ants?




Sephrenia


I have a really bad problem with meat ants and green ants in the backyard. It is a very big backyard and our main problem is with the ants is up near the house where the children's swing set and trampoline is.
I can't use poisons cause one of my children gets hives from that stuff and I don't wish too make our dog sick.
Is there anything natural that can be used to deter them from this area of the yard or urge them to move too move down the back of the yard?



Answer
Try ant baits that use boric acid as the active ingredient. The bait will make its way back to the colony and do more than spot treatments. Boric acid only becomes toxic to dogs/babies if they eat a big pile of it. The amount in a few baits won't do much of anything if eaten.

The green ants (Oecophylla smaragdina) nest in bushes and trees, so you can destroy the nest by cutting it down and drowning/burning it. They look like oversized cocoons made of silk and leaves.The meat ants (Iridomyrmex purpureus) nest in the ground and you can kill the nests by pouring a pot of boiling water into the entrance.

Another option - With meat ants and green ants, I'm guessing you live in Australia. If so, then those green ants make a tasty meal. Twist off the green ant butt and pop it in your mouth. Tastes like sour candy.
