link the coastal cluster with the mountain venues during the games. and to mark the one hundred days to go milestone large olympic windows were put out that such as well way station the symbol represents all the flag colors from the original competing nations of the first modern games all united in one take movement a similar set of rings was also installed near such as a report earlier this year. while i.o.c. boss fox was also on hand to help unveil the official outfits to be worn by volunteers and organizers during the olympic and paralympic games the kid has the trademark patent of a patchwork quilt with traditional motifs from across russia twenty five thousand volunteers are due to work in sochi in february and march says the final run up to the games is always the most challenging part of the time it's the stuff of the organizing committee the wall in two years and many of the people there know about this and they're very dedicated and committed so based on what been achieved

already in the last couple of years we can be very confident that also over the last lap these last one hundred days would be successful. while the american and input committee also celebrated one hundred days to go until sort cheek by taking over at new york's times square with him think sports were on display at the world famous crossroads with a mini ski slope and an ice rink providing winter fun for the crowd in return man happened while a couple of american ellen pick champions outlined skate lindsey vonn and figure skater evan lysacek oppose looking to shine in such a i'm really hoping i can defend my olympic title from vancouver you know obviously this is been the toughest journey for me so far coming back from this injury but i've worked extremely hard for me i'm chasing a very lofty goal of trying to repeat as olympic champion. and was the last in the

only american to ever do that in one hundred fifty two which is proof that quite a feat to accomplish. and russia will also host a maiden winter paralympics at sochi next month aiming to finish one better than the second overall place achieved in vancouver in two thousand and ten and some potential medal winners were among those on and at last friday's annual sporting awards as michael craft anchor reports. with less than one hundred days to go until russia's maiden winter olympics get underway in sochi the paralympic community came together to mark another event the eighth annual award ceremony to honor support and recognize a year's achievements from the country's top athletes and trainers. we created these awards to help make the olympics popular we don't have athletes or trainer of the year awards at the beach nominee has their own background story on them and we think their efforts not only with the best results but also there's a lot of stories of the most testing of thousands of kids who are maybe unaware of

their own potential but i can see just what can be achieved. there are ten awards and in addition to highlighting sporting excellence they also acknowledge personal challenges and overcoming adversity titles such as love of life and twist of fate giving an insight into how these awards are uniquely tailored to the athletes experiences. i think this is a great event and i think these kinds of events are good for a national it not only winning can award by simply taking part so a big thank you to the organizers and the paralympic and olympic committees for making sure paralympic sport is not seen as second best to olympic sport russia has one hundred seven candidates for the final team of sixty four who will be taking part in sochi expelled be wary and they'll be followed by over six hundred paralympians all vying for one of the record seventy two medals to be won. slowly

always important for russia's paralympic athletes it's also the final time they can get together and head of the upcoming winter season and with this season's big prize being sought there may well be a paralympic champions among them come next year's awards like of. moscow region. now for every sporting champion there are many who will never have the chance to fulfil their potential so the laureus world sports academy along with stars like tennis legend boris becker have set out to help disadvantaged kids get involved in sport but your reports. thank the royal academy has chosen jessica and us the laureus world sports of the world and i'm globally honoring the best sportsmen and women in pink spring champion a say in bold is a pretty time when our old world record holder yelena isinbayeva has won two awards the organization isn't just about rewarding superstars but laurie's sports academy

them questions or take a picture with them or ask for their autograph this is something that the children who took part in the event will remember for the rest of their lives here that. you know i am of hosts of the gali evening to round up the day's events which will hopefully become a regular fixture on moscow's sporting calendar as well as encourage a new generation of sports lovers as russia prepares to host the winter games and the paralympics which mom told me tassie moscow. and that's all the support i can. the. economic downturn in the final month stay the

a staunch ally. about this to protect its own backyard god and go ahead let's not forget that the arab spring is a crisis moment in international politics it is the moment in which you calm and put the genie back in the baltic because the people on the ground in those countries for example in egypt there is a nationalist swing towards sisi do we really think that sisi is going to be able to become an old forward cerium without the people rising up again. the fact that. we're going to go digital the price is the only industry specifically mentioned in the constitution and. that's because a free and open process is critical to our democracy albus. role. in fact the single biggest threat facing our nation today is the corporate takeover of our government and across a cynical we've been a hydrogen lying handful of transnational corporations that will profit by

destroying what our founding fathers one still just my job market and on this show we reveal the big picture of what's actually going on in the world we go beyond identifying the problem trucks rational debate and a real discussion critical issues facing or not define them or go ready to join the movement then walk away from the big picture. dramas that can't be ignored to. stories others refuse to notice. the faces change the world writes never. come full picture of today's news my own designs from around the globe. broke to. the.
