Olympics

The 2010 Winter Olympics logo was unveiled on April 23, 2005, and is named Ilanaaq the Inunnguaq. Ilanaaq is the Inuktitut word for friend. The logo is based on the Inukshuk (stone landmark or cairn) built for the Northwest Territories Pavilion at Expo 86 and donated to the City of Vancouver after the event. It is now used as a landmark on English Bay Beach.

You score by having the closest stone to the center of the scoring area (the "house") at the end of each round ("end"). You score a point for every stone that is closer to the center than your opponent's closest. So, the maximum number of points you can score in one end is 8, if all of your rocks are inside or touching the house, and your opponent doesn't have any rocks closer than any of yours. A typical score is 1 to 3 points. 4 or more is considered a "big end."

It depends on the country. Most Olympians are paid by their government. US Athlete's are not, in fact, US athletes are volunteers. They make money through sponsorships, endorsements, and in some sports prize money. Unfortunately that can add up to be a boatload of cash or not much at all depending on the sport and the individual athlete.

To become more acrobatic, you need practice. Enrolling in gymnastics classes would also be a good idea. Stretching and working out everyday needs to be done and then you are on your way to being more acrobatic.

Sculling boats with the same number of people are faster than Rowing (one oar) boats. However the fastest Olympic class boat is the coxed 8 (which is a rowing boat). This is because there is no 8 person sculling boat and the fastest sculling boat is the coxless quad.
