Olympians Named “A” on Stamps OLYMPIANS NAMED “A” ON STAMPS This is a part of a list named “Olympians on Stamps”, which contains Olympians whose last names start with “A” depicted on stamps and other philatelic material, along with the actual philatelic material. Each athlete’s name is clickable – it will take you to their Wikipedia page (or, if one does not exist, to another page associated with the athlete), where you can view their biography and achievements. After philatelic materials depicting the Olympian, you can see the athlete’s brief summary of their Olympic participation and achievements. The “Olympians on Stamps” list is actually a supplement to my “Olympic History on Stamps” collection.

  • Hettich Einfach Herrlich Ist Eine Scheibe
    TURIN 06 MONTAG, 13. FEBRUAR 2006 www.suedkurier.de/sport SÜDKURIER NR. 36 / 62. JAHR BUONGIORNO AUS TURIN Ein Bisslein Bond VON LARS MÜLLER er Beißer, jeden Tag aufs Neue: Wenn die Sieger der D Olympischen Winterspiele geehrt werden, dann ist das ein Bisslein wie beim Bond. Richard Kiel war es, der sich als böser Beißer in den 007-Streifen „Der Spion, der mich liebte“ und „Moonraker“ einen schlechten Namen gemacht hatte. An jedem olympischen Tag gehen nun wieder Bewerbungen für seine Nachfolge ein. Georg Hettich war der Erste (weshalb er übrigens nicht 001 ist): Nach seinem Sieg im Gundersen-Einzel der Nordischen Kombination biss er in Pragelato bei der Sie- gerehrung auf Wunsch der Fotografen auf seine Goldmedaille. Selten ist es ein Kauen oder ein Lecken, immer ist es ein Zur- Schau-stellen der Beißerchen, ein richtiges Beißen. Warum machen die das? Jedes Kind weiß, dass Medaillen, seien sie aus Gold, Silber oder Bronze, nicht von Pappe, son- dern bissfest sind. Sportler sollten eher ordentliche Dental- pflege betreiben – damit sie auch morgen noch kraftvoll zu- beißen und Olympiasieger werden können. Vermutlich haben die Athleten aber folgenden Spruch im Ohr: OIympiastund hat Gold im Mund. Aber Gold im Mund ist doch – zumindest bei dieser Menge – ungesund. Zudem: Warum sprechen Sportler immer von mentalen Problemen? Haben viele von ihnen nicht eher ein dentales Problem, weil ihnen der Biss fehlt? Jetzt fehlt nur noch die Abschlussfrage: Sehen wir oder sehen die Sport- ler die Sache zu verbissen? Das Tolle an den Olympischen Spielen in Turin ist, dass die Medaillen erstmals ein Loch haben – und nicht die Zähne.

  • PRESSEMELDING Bfgoodrich Returnerer Til Rally Dakar
    PRESSEMELDING Oslo 2. november 2016 BFGoodrich returnerer til Rally Dakar BFGoodrich, dekkprodusenten som skapte det første radialdekket for terrengkjøring i 1976, har bestemt seg for å returnere til Rally Dakar i 2017 som offisiell dekkleverandør. Når Rally Dakar går av stabelen i Asunción, Paraguay, i januar er det første gang siden 2012 at BFGoodrich sine dekk er tilbake på racerbilene i stor skala. Samtidig vil dekkprodusenten stille med et eget servicesenter, hvor de vil tilby deltakerne eksperthjelp 24 timer i døgnet. Det ulendte terrenget og de uforutsigbare faktorer som deltakerne møter i løpet av to uker og 800 mil med utfordrende racing gjennom tre land, er nøyaktig de testforholdene som BFGoodrich ønsker seg. – BFGoodrich har en stolt tradisjon innenfor racing, og med vår offisielle retur til Rally Dakar ser vi frem til å fortsette vårt globale engasjement innenfor terrengracing, sier Pascal Couasnon, direktør for Michelin og BFGoodrich Motorsport. – Cross Country rally er en særegen utfordring, og denne konkurransen omfatter noen av jordens mest komplekse terrengforhold. Som i andre former for racing der BFGoodrich deltar, er vår dedikasjon den samme i denne disiplinen. Vi fortsetter å bruke all teknisk informasjon som vi samler inn på konkurranselaboratorier over hele verden for å utvikle ny teknologi og stadig forbedre våre produkter til å møte de aller vanskeligste kjøreforholdene på jorden. BFGoodrich-dekkene som leveres i Rally Dakar 2017 er dekk som brukes i racing og testes over hele verden: BFGoodrich All-Terrain KDR2: Dette er et unikt racingdekk, utviklet for cross-country rally racing. Det ligner på BFGoodrich Baja T/A® KR2, men er lettere og har en ny slitebane.

  • The Adventurer Luc Alphand Gets Behind the Wheel of Your SCX®
    The adventurer Luc Alphand gets behind the wheel of your SCX® SCX® PRESENTS THE FERRARI 550 MARANELLO Now you can enjoy taking the wheel of one of today's most original Ferraris This Ferrari 550 GT Maranello from the firm with the prancing horse logo, brought to you by SCX®, boasts a truly spectacular design, in line with the Italian manufacturer's philosophy. The front of the vehicle has a strikingly large air intake with several logos underneath it. The car uses three colours: blue, the main colour in the scheme, white, which is used for the top part of the spoilers running around the vehicle and finally another band of grey underneath which, like the white, runs all around the vehicle. This colour scheme brings out even more the originality of this Ferrari. Eye-catching in the side view of this SCX® model are the wide, low-profile Michelin tyres. The silver-coloured alloy wheels are a detail to spot and behind the wheels are some striking air intakes. The aggressive looks of the car are at least partly due to its low suspension, a typical feature of Ferrari models. Other distinctive features of this Ferrari 550 GT Maranello include the stickers on the bodywork, starting with the large driver's race number, 72, next to the logo of ‘Les Maisons France’ and the French flag on the car doors. The drivers' names are to be found over the doors: Frederic Dor, Luc Alphand and Jerome Policand. Also worth a mention are the attractive headlights, between which the inevitable Ferrari logo stands out.
