Extractions: THE WASHINGTON POST February 13, 2005 "I forgot to tell you," said the mechanic, Enrique Ramirez. "The heat doesn't work." Huddled in blankets and wired from dozens of cups of service-station coffee, the Mexicans arrived in Calgary last November in time to compete in one of a handful of events they hope will put them in position to qualify for the 2006 Olympics. The team had a more comfortable trip here to Lake Placid for a World Cup bobsled competition today, leaving the El Camino with Ramirez and gratefully accepting discounted Aero Mexico tickets from a commercial pilot who competes in the Olympic sport of skeleton in which contestants ride head-first down the bobsled course. Still, the Mexicans hardly look the part of a team of privilege. Standing in a circle, Tames, Carlos Aranda, Gerrardo Cortes and Alfonso Pohls put their hands together.

Extractions: Eckenhard Shulz In a way, skeleton has been around as long as daredevils have blasted down slopes on small sleds, careening along on their stomachs, braving the ice in a thrilling head-first ride. But in terms of Olympic events, skeleton was included in only two previous Winter Games, those of 1928 and 1948, both in St. Moritz, Switzerland.

Wireless Review Sponsored by Intel. For years, telecom companies have attempted to tap into the passions that surround sporting events. With the Winter Olympics in full swing, these marketing efforts materialize in team sponsorships. But to make the most of such deals, telcos need to do more than place their logos next to a famous face. Now comes the Winter Olympics and with it thousands of prime marketing opportunities. If telecom companies want to make the most of the occasion, though, they have to do more than simply slap a logo in a television camera's line of sight or say they support a particular team. Instead, one of the best ways to leverage these opportunities is through sponsoring related events.

The IOC had banned Prusis, overruling the International bobsled Federation. Follow BBC Sport Online s coverage of the Winter Olympics
http://news.bbc.co.uk/winterolympics2002/hi/english/bobsleigh/newsid_1800000/180

Extractions: Latvian bobsledder Sandis Prusis has been cleared to compete in the Winter Olympics despite giving a positive drugs test. A sports arbitration panel set aside objections from the International Olympic Committee. The IOC had banned Prusis, overruling the International Bobsled Federation. Prusis appealed to the Court of Arbitration for Sport, a panel designed to keep eligibility disputes out of the law courts. Attorney Erik A. Christiansen The panel ruled the IOC must prove a sports federation had violated the Olympic charter. Otherwise, it could not take an action that would compromise the independence of the sports federation. It reaffirmed that sports federations "can decide how to deal with doping offences which come within their jurisdiction." Prusis, pilot of the two-man and four-man Latvian sleds, tested positive for the steroid nandralone after a November training run at the Olympic track in Park City, Utah.
