Australian media are reporting today that doubts have been raised about the ages of Chinese medal - winning athletes as long ago as the Sydney Olympic Games in 2000 .

Rules introduced in 1997 to prevent the exploitation of under - aged gymnasts stipulate that competitors are required to be at least 16-years - old in the year the Olympics are held .
Answer the following question: Why would there be a rule in place to prevent am under sixteen old from competing ?

New Orleans was spared the kind of unmitigated disaster that was Hurricane Katrina this time around . Gustav 's winds caused some damage and flooding occurred , but since it was a less powerful storm than Katrina the levees held .

It seems as if Hanna may be a nuisance to this area by the weekend , although I hope not since we only have two weekends of summer left this year . We had a nice Labor Day weekend .
Answer the following question: What may happen after hurricane Gustav hits New Orleans ?

Tropical storm Hanna will hit the area .
