Rafael Nadal...

MADRID (AP) — Defending Olympic tennis champion Rafael Nadal pulled out of the London Games on Thursday with an undisclosed injury.

"I am not in condition to compete in the London Olympics and therefore will not travel as planned with the Spanish delegation to take part in the games," the third-ranked Spaniard said in a statement.

Nadal did not mention any specific injury, but he canceled a charity match in Madrid on July 4 because of tendon problems in his left knee. He has had recurring knee problems in the past.

From a YT video detail:

It turns out that "Tisha B'Av" falls on the 27th of July this year (2012) and this is the SAME DAY that the London Olympics opening ritual/ceremony takes place.

So the eyes of the world will be on London on 27th of July 2012 for the Opening of the XXX Olympiad. How interesting!

Tisha B'Av (the Ninth of Av) is an annual fast day in Judaism, named for the ninth day (Tisha) of the month of Av in the Hebrew calendar. The fast commemorates the destruction of both the First Temple and Second Temple in Jerusalem, which occurred about 655 years apart, but on the same Hebrew calendar date.

Is London is the "New Jerusalem" (Zion) ?

---------------

It should be expected that there are people who will not be attending for religious reasons.
If not that, a fortunately scheduled dentist appointment and nagging wife will suffice for explanation later.

Is it coincidence that both rebuild plans brought to the monarchy after the great fire destroyed London were based on the Tree of Life?

Re: London Olympics - 'NO SHOWS- PEOPLE THAT 'CAN'T MAKE IT'
Croatia high-jump superstar Blanka Vlasic just quit going London too.



The Croatian athlete has dominated women's high jumping since her silver medal in Beijing in 2008 and had expected to start as favourite for the London Games.

She underwent an operation on her Achilles tendon in January but suffered a bacterial infection during her recovery.

In May she announced that she would make a final decision on whether to compete at the Olympics, "the day before take off".

However, writing on her website on Saturday Vlasic, who has the second best jump of all time with 2.08 metres, confirmed that she is unhappy with her current performance and she will not compete in London.

"[sic] I've been postponing decision about my participation in London hopeful to get some positive wind into my back," she said.

Damn! What a little hottie! WOuld 'ave been fun watchin her! Damn again.

 Quoting: Truthache


Tisha b'Av is a big day, you're right, however literally it falls on 7/28-29 this year whereas regular sabbath is 7/27-28. Not being Jewish, I'm not sure of how it might be recognized near the Sabbath cuz it it would be hard to stack two realistically speaking. Anyone know how this works?

Tisha b'Av commemorates only the destruction of both temples but several other key points of Jewish persecution are attached to the date. From Aish.com:

587 BC (3338)- The First Temple is destroyed by the Babylonians, led by Nebuchadnezzar. The jewish people are sent into what later became known as the Babylonian Exile.
70 AD (3830)- The Second Temple is destroyed by the Romans, led by Titus.
135 AD (3895) - The Romans defeat Bar Kochba's last fortress, Betar, and destroy his army. Bar Kochba himself is killed along with more than 100,000 other jewish people. The Roman Emperor Hadrian turns Jerusalem into a Roman city.
1290 (5050) - King Edward I of England signs an edict expelling all jewish people from England.
1492 (5252) - The Alhambra Decree takes effect, expelling the jewish people from Spain and from all Spanish territories.
1914 (5674) - World War I begins when Germany declares war on Russia, setting the stage for World War II and the Holocaust.
1940 (5700) - Himmler presents his plan for the "Final Solution" to the Jewish problem to the Nazi Party.
1942 (5702) - Nazis begin deporting jewish people from the Warsaw Ghetto.
