"The first years after Athens took the Games the progress of preparations were disappointingly slow," Rogge told Greece's Ethnos newspaper. "In recent years though the progress achieved by Athens organizers and the government is impressive." Rogge, who was chief overseer of the Games before taking over the IOC in 2001, said he would continue to worry until the opening ceremony. "The hosting of the Games is a great responsibility and it is not something that can be taken lightly," he said. "Security remains the number one priority." Greece has budgeted $750 million on security the biggest amount in Olympic history and plans to deploy a 50,000 security force during the Games from August 13-29.

151. Athlete Profile - Dorothy Hamill Includes Hamill's reflections on her career and on eligible skating before the 2002 olympics. http://www.olympic-usa.org/athlete_profiles/d_hamill.html

On the new generation of American Olympic medal hopefuls: "Michelle Kwan is the "It" Girl today in figure skating. She is beautiful, smart, sweet, works hard, skates gracefully, her jumps are consistent, what else can I say? She is working hard towards the 2002 Winter Olympics and I wish her all the luck in the world. Sarah Hughes reminds me a lot of myself when I was a kid. She is shy, gaining experience and working hard to achieve her goals. She is a gifted athlete and has a lot more natural talent than I ever had." Dorothy Hamill The Short List Captured the Olympic ladies' gold at the 1976 Innsbruck Games Won three consecutive medals at the World Championships - gold in 1976, silver in 1975 and 1974 Won three consecutive U.S. titles from 1974-1976 Did You Know? Began skating at age 8 on frozen Binny Park Pond in Old Greenwich, Conn. During those initial outings to the pond, Hamill borrowed her brother's hockey skates and had to stuff socks in the toes so the skates would fit properly Earned a perfect 6.0 mark for artistic presentation during her short program in Innsbruck · Famous "wedge" hairstyle was called "one of the most important fashion statements of the last 50 years" by Life magazine

Big money, of course, figures in, too. The former head of a Utah-based mining company denies using unethical tactics when he told subordinates to turn down business from suppliers who refused his request for Olympic donations. The Wall Street Journal reported Tuesday that Frank Joklik, an Olympics booster and former president and chief executive officer of Kennecott Corporation, pressured his copper-mining company's suppliers to donate money for Salt Lake City's bid for the 1998 Winter Games. Joklik Joklik, who later would lead the Salt Lake Organizing Committee (SLOC) for the 2002 Winter Games, got 12 of Kennecott's suppliers to contribute to the unsuccessful bid, the newspaper reported.

Collecting Olympic Pins Pin collecting is a popular hobby among Olympic enthusiasts, so my mother, my son, and I all started collections in Atlanta. Although none of us started collecting pins for their monetary worth, it was fun to learn what is and isn't considered "valuable" by collectors' standards. Take the "guided tour" using the links at the right to see some of my pins as well as a few of my son's and my mom's. I hope to post a few of my recent additions soon; I'm excited about several NOC pins and limited edition pins I have recently acquired. In the meantime, you can take the tour using the links at the right, or select the separate link to see all my pins, available for viewing by year and by category. Take the "guided tour" to see all the pins, or select a single category you are interested in. All pins are shown about 50% larger than actual size. Guided tour - Start here NOC pins Sport pins ...
