Here are some Austrian newspaper sites, that have a bunch of info on the olympics:\nhttp://www.derstandard.at\nhttp://www.diepresse.at\n\nI'm not sure where you can get clothing, try Ebay, especially the German and Austrian Ebay sites.  Just be careful with customs, it might be expensive to get it to the USA.

Russia is one of my favorite , its obvious that they will be competing for the  gold medal at least . I would put Finland on 2 nd place and Belarus on 3rd . Belarus is very strong and potential . So called "dark horse"  . You never know what to expect from them , despite recent loss to Sweden . Its because Belarus ruled by dictator like in Soviet Union times .  Lukashenko said " You have to get a medal  " .

Each national sports governing body has their own selection process. In the U.S. ice skating is based on performance in the national championships, one event. In skiing, the skiers season standings.\n\nThe international federations also have rules on how many athletes are allowed to compete. For example, in figure skating, some are only allowed one skater, others two or three , depending on how well that countries skaters did in the last world champions ships. The U.S. got to have 3 women because of Micelle Kwan's 4th place finish at the last worlds.
