MACAU -- China's Yang Lian set a weightlifting world record in the women's 106-pound division Sunday, lifting 258 pounds in the clean-and-jerk.

She beat the previous mark by 2.2 pounds in winning the gold medal at the East Asia Games. She lifted 198 in the snatch for a combined total of 456, equaling the Asian record.

"Now I want the Olympic," gold medal, Yang said. "I just wanted to get the gold medal today, so I didn't add any (extra) weight."

Yang topped the mark set by China's Li Zhuo at the Asian championships in 2003.

Almost 1,900 athletes from nine countries are competing at the East Asia Games.

Should one suspect East German techniques?

she said after the feat "I was worried that I could'nt make it, I have a terrible rash around my scrotum that has prevented me from proper practicing...my penis has been irrated also, causing tremedous pain while lifing"

Chang will also compete in the goat toss next week in Bejing.

Gosh, she looks more like a gymnast than a weight lifter. Kinda cute even. But even if I was 30 years younger and unmarried, I'm afraid I'd have to keep my distance. That lady would turn you ever which way but loose. I'm sure you'd be much the worse for wear after any encounter with her. If she took offense at your advances, that would be a Bad Thing. But if she didn't, that might be a Very Bad Thing, in the long run anyway. :)

That would account for the blond hair.

in the clean-and-jerk.

Is that before or after the happy ending?
