    Former Olympic swimmer Scott Miller is behind bars this morning with the fallen star facing fresh drug supply allegations.

    Miller cut a forlorn figure on the video screen of Parramatta Bail Court yesterday as he was told he would remain in custody until at least Wednesday following his weekend arrest.

    “I thought it was a possession charge,” Miller told the court in his first moment on screen, before the charge of supplying a prohibited drug was confirmed to him. He told the court his lawyer was away and unable to represent him in court yesterday. […]

    Earlier this month in Waverley Local Court, Miller pleaded not guilty to a charge of supply and possession of ice, as well as a count of possessing suspected stolen property.

    He was arrested at a home in Botany Bay on June 18, when police allegedly found $1900 on him and a further $14,700 in a car parked outside along with three small, resealable bags of ice. Officers granted him conditional bail, provided the Edgecliff resident reported to police three times a week.

    A photo out of Natalie Coughlin’s twitter feed. Nice to see that classic Danish toy put to good use, maybe you give them a few medals in return! ;-)

    Hungary’s Katinka Hosszu got the honor to part of the Budapest bid for the 2021 World Championships, so she is there way earlier than the rest of us.

    7-year-old Bjarki preparing himself mentally to meet the 7ยฐC (45ยฐF) warm ocean, here in the Faroe Islands. This at the G! Festival, yesterday July 21, 2013. The incoming mist wasn’t really helping, but made a nice shot. Me and Bartal and the boys are btw seen here in the official G! photo album, at the great bossa nova themed Faroese evergreens sing-a-long gathering.
