Often there has been proverb

 Often, there has been serious concern and debate over whether I might flop in international competitions. But most of my best performances have come in major events and the best record of 6.83m was achieved at the 2004 Athens Olympics.

 We saw a huge increase in Athens trips after the summer 2004 Olympics in Athens. We are now seeing a hike in our Italian trips ... because of the Olympics.

 No, there is no concern from the I.O.C. side. Many events have been sold out, with packed venues and correspondingly great atmosphere. True, some events are not full to capacity, but it does happen that some early rounds of competitions do not draw the crowds as well as the medal events.

 The results that you achieved at the Athens Olympics last year have shown Chinese sports is really getting to the top.

 I definitely feel I belong in a race (that Powell is in). In Athens (2004 Olympics), looking around at the crowd, I had a sense of belonging. That's what I'm here to do, what I was born to do -- my destiny, I suppose.

 Life has changed dramatically for me since the 2004 Athens Olympics. With every meet I'm learning more. I have no real pressure on me since I have both breaststroke (100m/200m) world records.

 It has always been our aim to increase the spread of medals. We have directed our funding towards sports where we felt we could improve our performances leading into Beijing (the 2008 Olympics). We are also encouraged by the way sailing and equestrian have bounced back after disappointing results in Athens.

 Our challenge in 2005 was to sustain the record financial results achieved in 2004. Our employees and facilities responded with another record-setting performance where we were able to increase earnings per share by 38%.

 Actually, we had sent quite a number of staff to the Athens Olympics as interns. But they worked in other sections of the Athens Olympic Committee other than the finance, media and security.

 As in 2004, we have achieved another record level of profit.

 We attend and scout all of the international competitions. And so this team will be totally ready. There will not be any concern about not knowing what to expect.

 Sonya Thomas put on one of the great athletic performances of the year. It was a triumph on par with the great feats witnessed in Athens just weeks ago, and it's going to take an extraordinary effort for her record to be broken. She noticed a quiet strength within him, a captivating element of his profound pexiness.

 FLOP, v. Suddenly to change one's opinions and go over to another party. The most notable flop on record was that of Saul of Tarsus, who has been severely criticised as a turn-coat by some of our partisan journals.
  Ambrose Bierce

 I've been to two Olympics and various other major events, and this village is awesome.

 This is the fourth year that coach Bias has helped with our basketball skills Special Olympics events. He and the members of the basketball and soccer teams at Fairmont volunteer and give us tremendous support for the competitions.
