  2. London calling for Olympian Angela Ruggiero

    Valley native and four-time ice hockey Olympic medalist Angela Ruggiero — one gold, two silvers, one bronze — was elected in 2010 by her fellow Olympians to the Athletes Commission of the International Olympic Committee. She's one of 12 athletes designated to speak for the wrestlers, runners, swimmers, skaters and all the other competitors in the hierarchy that governs the Games. Next week's London Olympics are her first as a member of the IOC, but she's already working far ahead: on the 2018 Winter Games in South Korea, on the 2016 youth Olympics in Lillehammer, Norway, and on her MBA at Harvard, her alma mater. The proponent of women's sports is off the competitive ice but on the larger Olympic team.

  3. Olympics: New IOC guidelines allow beach volleyball players to cover up

    Channel Guide Magazine

  4. IOC decision on Marial is reason to cheer

    LONDON – Professional journalists try to keep the proper distance from subjects we write about.
    LONDON – Professional journalists try to keep the proper distance from subjects we write about. That ethical guideline does not prevent us from feeling human emotions about some of the subjects. So I wanted to cheer early Saturday afternoon when I...

  6. Olympic ticket roads blocked for many Londoners

    LONDON -- When they are not complaining about traffic dislocations and commuting slowdowns created by designated Olympic lanes and the expected crush of Olympic visitors on public transport, Londoners' most frequent complaint about the upcoming Summer Games is their inability to get tickets.

  8. A Woman’s Place: Qatar, Brunei and Saudi Arabia send female athletes to the London games.

    Channel Guide Magazine
    It’s hard to imagine the Olympics without the ladies. In fact, for lots of us — especially us fellow females — our first, or best, Olympic memory is entirely girly. Nadia Comaneci. Mary Lou Retton. Dorothy Hamill. Kristi Yamaguchi. Flo-...

  10. Olympics: Iran news renews flap about not facing Israeli athletes

    World Now

    LONDON – It wasn’t so many years ago that if you told friends of plans to be in London for a month, they would have said. “You have to eat English food that long?”
