Olympic skiers stripped of titles
Story Tools LAUSANNE, Switzerland The Court of Arbitration for Sport has stripped cross-country skiers Olga Danilova and Johann Muehlegg of their Olympic gold medals. Russian Danilova was disqualified from the 30-kilometer race in Salt Lake City last year after failing a drugs test, but had been allowed to keep her winner's medal from the 5k pursuit. That now goes to Canada's Beckie Scott. In a similar case, Muehlegg's gold medals go to Norwegian pair Thomas Alsgaard and Frode Estil. The German-born Spaniard was disqualified after winning the 50k event, but kept two other titles. Scott, meanwhile, makes history by becoming the first Olympic athlete to be awarded bronze, silver and gold medals in the same event. "To say I'm an Olympic gold medallist now is the greatest honor," Scott told a media teleconference from Ramsaw, Austria. "I'm just so happy that things turned out the way they did."

This Utah native not only helped create the artwork, but a piece of Olympic history.
On the medals stand,this is an athlete's greatest Olympic moment.
A moment Brent Watts and his team proudly share. They designed the victory medals, which symbolize the Olympic spirit.
"We actually get to share a part of their moment. It's actually quite wonderful," Brent Watts of Axiom Designed Communications says.
Watts submitted several drawings to the Salt Lake Organizing Committee, and competed against 100 artists from around the world. The original designs evolved from a non-circular form, to an arrowhead, and one that included granite, gold, silver and bronze metals.
What you see around an athlete's neck is the final design.
"We wanted it to be in a different form, and from that we presented taking it and making it feel like a river rock, so it had something natural and part of the environment," Watts explains.

    The Winter Olympics
    The move toward a winter version of the Olympics began in 1908 when figure skating made an appearance at the Summer Games in London. Ten-time world champion Ulrich Salchow of Sweden, who originated the backwards, one revolution jump that bears his name, and Madge Syers of Britain were the first singles champions. Germans Anna Hubler and Heinrich Berger won the pairs competition. The Games resumed in 1920 at Antwerp, Belgium, where figure skating returned and ice hockey was added as a medal event. Sweden's Gillis Grafstrom and Magda Julin took individual honors, while Ludovika and Walter Jakobsson were the top pair. In hockey, Canada won the gold medal with the United States second and Czechoslovakia third. Seventy years after those first cold weather Games, the 17th edition of the Winter Olympics took place in Lillehammer, Norway, in 1994. The event ended the four-year Olympic cycle of staging both Winter and Summer Games in the same year and began a new schedule that calls for the two Games to alternate every two years.

Ancient history of skiing
The first hints to the existence of skis This article concerns the skis used in skiing. For the place in Norway, see Ski, Norway. A ski is a thin, flat-bottomed device attached by means of bindings to the skier's ski boots, with a slightly upturned, pointed front end to avoid digging into the snow. Also, a ski may denote a similar device used for other purposes than skiing, e.g., for steering snowmobiles.

This list comprises sites that are considered to have particularly great national and international value. This is the only prehistoric site among the four Norwegian sites on the list. The first rock carvings were discovered here in the autumn of 1972. About 4000 have so far been recognised. They are dispersed on approximately 60 panels in four separate areas in Alta. The largest is at Hjemmeluft/Jiepmaluokta, where Alta Museum is situated. This is the only area that has facilities for the public.

    document.write(' '); English About Us Special Olympics began in 1968 when Eunice Kennedy Shriver organized the First International Special Olympics Games at Soldier Field, Chicago, Illinois, USA. The concept was born in the early 1960s when Shriver started a day camp for people with mental retardation. She saw that individuals with mental retardation were far more capable in sports and physical activities than many experts thought. Since 1968, millions of children and adults with mental retardation have participated in Special Olympics.

    The History of Squaw Valley USA
    Excerpted from Squaw Valley USA: The First Fifty Years S quaw Valley is a special place, difficult to experience without falling under its spell. It is as if, by its very nature, the valley commands a relationship with those who set foot here. One can travel the world hiking, skiing, climbing, and exploring; Squaw Valley's beauty will still impress. Those who have been involved as team members, visitors, or "locals" proudly attest to an inexplicable connection with the valley. Many have contributed to Squaw's founding and growth. In 1946, Squaw Valley worked its magic on a young man named Alexander Cushing, who had traveled with friends to the Sierra Nevada on a four day train ride from the East Coast. Cushing, then a lawyer on Wall Street, had served in the Navy and was ready for a change. "The war turns the world upside down and I was having a hard time adjusting" he recalls. The strain of duty left him with solid impressions of life's fragility, and of the importance of living life to the fullest. So, as many have before and since, Cushing headed west. On his first day skiing at Sugar Bowl, Cushing did the "unmentionable" and broke his ankle. As the fourth at Bridge, his friends demanded he stay. Always optimistic, Cushing contented himself relaxing on the sundeck and watching other skiers. While there, he heard a young man named Wayne Poulsen speak of a nearby place with the best skiing in the country. Intrigued by Poulsen's statement, Cushing asked to see this place, and soon found himself on crutches, watching from the meadow while his friends hiked and schussed the glorious peaks of Squaw Valley.
