GLASGOW -- In the first doping scandal of the Commonwealth Games, a 16-year-old female Nigerian weightlifter was provisionally suspended Tuesday after testing positive for banned substances. Jeff Bagwell Jersey . Chika Amalaha tested positive for the diuretic amiloride and masking agent hydrochlorothiazide -- both banned by the World Anti-Doping Agency -- after winning the 53-kilogram weight class last Friday, games officials said. Shes the first athlete to test positive during the games, which opened last Wednesday night. Amalaha asked for the backup "B" sample to be tested, which will happen in London on Wednesday. If that sample also comes back positive, she will be stripped of her medal. "It sends a strong message to anybody in any sport that if you go down the path of doping, any substance to enhance performance, they will be caught," Commonwealth Games Federation chief executive Mike Hooper said. Its the second Commonwealth Games in a row that Nigeria has been in the doping spotlight. Four years ago in New Delhi, three of the four doping cases involved Nigerian runners, including womens 100-meter gold medallist Osayomi Oludamola. Meanwhile, the king of the track met with British royalty in the athletes village. Prince William and his brother, Prince Harry, met Jamaicas Usain Bolt, the multiple Olympic sprint champion and world record-holder over 100 and 200 metres. Harry posed for a photo with Bolt, who is running in the 4x100 relay this week. William was reported to have jokingly said to Bolt as he approached him: "Whats all the fuss about?" Elsewhere at the games on Tuesday: CANADIANS, KIWIS 1-2: Catharine Pendrel of Canada, the 2011 mountain bike cross-country world champion who finished ninth at the 2012 London Olympics, won gold in the womens cross-country race at the Cathkin Braes Country Park course in Glasgow. Her Canadian teammate Emily Batty took the silver, with Rebecca Anderson of Australia earning the bronze. "We trained well as a team," Pendrel said. "I knew from training and the nationals that Emily was on fire, so Im proud she got silver." In the mens race, New Zealanders were 1-2, with Anton Cooper beating Samuel Gaze by just three seconds for gold. Australian Daniel McDonnell took the bronze. SHOOTING FOR GOLD: Australian shooters won both golds on offer in early events, with English and Indian competitors taking the minor medals. Adam Vella defeated Aaron Heading of England in the mens trap final, and Manavjit Sandhu of India took the bronze. David Chapman of Australia took gold in the 25-meter rapid-fire pistol, Indias Harpreet Singh took silver and Kristian Callaghan of England earned the bronze. Brian McCann Jersey . Once again, the third baseman delivered in a big spot. Ramirez kept up his torrid hitting with a two-run homer to help back Wily Peraltas solid start, and the Brewers extended their winning streak to seven with a 4-2 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates on Friday night. Anthony Gose Jersey . Blown save in the ninth inning? No problem. http://www.astrosteamproshop.com/Astros-Jimmy-Wynn-Kids-Jersey/ . "Canada," Bolland said with a smile. "Is that a question?" One day earlier, though, fellow Toronto Maple Leafs centre Nazem Kadri wasnt so sure his home and native land could pull off the win against the United States in the semi-finals of the Olympic hockey tournament.ANCHORAGE, Alaska - A lack of snow in south-central Alaska has organizers of the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race pondering whether to move the start of the gruelling 1,609-kilometre competition from Willow to Fairbanks.The event begins with a ceremonial start March 7 in Anchorage. Dog teams carrying passengers make a leisurely 17.7-kilometre run from downtown to an airstrip on the citys east side.Actual racing begins a day later and usually starts in Willow. The trail takes mushers and dogs through the Alaska Range, down the Yukon River and along the Bering Sea coast to the old gold rush town of Nome.Race organizers in 2003 moved the start of the race to Fairbanks on the north side of the Alaska Range because of low snow and poor trail conditions. They were criticized for not doing so last year.Norwegian musher Robert Sorlie, who won the race in 2005, survived a harrowing trip through the Dalzell Gorge and Farewell Burn in the Alaska Range.They should not send people out there. Its not safe, said Sorlie, a firefighter, while in Nikolai. Ive never been so scared before in my life.Race marshal Mark Nordman is watching current trail conditions closely, the Fairbanks Daily News-Miner reported (http://bit.ly/15sCMKr). One big storm could change everything, he said.Plan A is goingg over the Alaska Range. Justin Verlander Jersey. Thats still what were working on, he said. And with the reception we had in 2003, we would hope Fairbanks would be excited if Plan B would need to happen.The Dalzell Gorge and the Farewell Burn need more snow, he said. There also might be open water on the Yukon River above Galena, Nordman said. From Unalakleet on the Bering Sea coast, theres a thin snowpack too, he said.Temperatures rose last year after the decision was made to use the traditional route, Nordman said.The Iditarod Trail Committee will decide in mid-February whether the race will follow its normal route or restart in Fairbanks. Lead time is needed because mushers drop off food at checkpoints and race officials must plan logistics, Nordman said.Theres pressure from locations along the traditional route to keep it, Nordman said.Cities and businesses along the traditional route want organizers to stick to the usual trail, Nordman said.When we dont come through a village, itll be a big hit, he said. But they all realize. They see it every day. Their travel is harder because of the lack of snow in some places.Nordman added his ultimate responsibility is to the dogs and mushers.___Information from: Fairbanks (Alaska) Daily News-Miner, http://www.newsminer.com Cheap Blackhawks Jerseys Cheap Avalanche Jerseys Cheap Team USA Hockey Jerseys Cheap Stars Jerseys Cheap Wild Jerseys Cheap Predators Jerseys Cheap Blues Jerseys Cheap Jets Jerseys Cheap Ducks Jerseys Cheap Coyotes Jerseys Cheap Flames Jerseys Cheap Oilers Jerseys Cheap Kings Jerseys Cheap Sharks Jerseys Cheap Canucks Jerseys Cheap Golden Knights Jerseys Cheap Winter Classic Jerseys ' ' '
