"We had doubts about some of the venues and infrastructure, but I am very happy to report these have all disappeared," said IOC chief overseer Denis Oswald. "No single project is at risk - we know everything will be delivered on time." He said the inspectors' visit had been "positive" and praised the work on the installation of the stadium roof. Oswald said that the Olympic movement and the Greek people would benefit from the Games returning to their spiritual home. "The movement will profit a lot from having the Games in Greece - we return to our roots, so it will remind us to put the basic philosophy of the Olympic movement in first place," he said.

Frank Joklik (996K/35 sec. AIFF or WAV ). will stay on as president until a successor is named. He asked for and received the resignation of senior vice president Dave Johnson. "The acts during the Olympic bidding process that besmirch our reputation break my heart," Joklik said, in announcing his resignation.

U.S and Greek troops also plan to stage joint exercises in Greece from March as part of security preparations for the Games in August. "NATO will be ready to intervene if a crisis erupts. NATO and NATO members will be on a high state of alert," said Greek Defense Minister Yannos Papandoniou. The government has repeatedly had to allay fears among Greeks, sensitive to outside interference in domestic issues, that foreign security forces would be allowed to operate in the country during the Games. The U.S.-Greek exercises are designed to help security forces tackle potential threats during the Games, including nuclear and chemical attacks, as organizers put final touches on the biggest security blueprint the Olympics have ever seen, Public Order Minister George Floridis said. "In March there will be a common exercise of U.S. and Greek troops. This exercise is being designed and details will be announced at a later stage," he told reporters.
