Anton Ohno deserved that medal - he is a fantastic speed skater.  It was nice that he crossed the finish line without any reviews from the judges.  It was a nice, clean win.  It was beautiful to see him mouthing the words to the National Anthem.

According to international media, from orbit Gagarin made the comment, "I don't see any god up here." There are, however, no such words in the full verbatim record of Gagarin's conversations with the Earth during the spaceflight.\n\nDuring his flight, Gagarin famously whistled the tune "The Motherland Hears, The Motherland Knows" (Russian: "Родина слышит, Родина знает"). The first two lines of the song are: "The Motherland hears, the Motherland knows/Where her son flies in the sky". This patriotic song was written by Dmitri Shostakovich in 1951 (opus 86), with words by Dolmatovsky.

boosted moral for the country through winning....1976 gold medal summer olympics setting a world and Olympic record of 8,634 points. Jenner was handed a large American flag from a bystander in the audience as he spontaneously ran a celebratory victory lap, a gesture that has been emulated frequently since that time by athletes in other sports from countries around the world. He was the 1976 recipient of the James E. Sullivan Award as the top amateur athlete in the United States and was considered by many at the time to have earned the right to be known as the world's greatest athlete.\nThe lyrics of the song "Spam" by the ska band Save Ferris refer to Jenner, as do the lyrics of "Flava in Your Ear" by rapper Craig Mack.

There are actually two themes. The one you're probably referring to was written by Hollywood composer John Williams. It's called Summon the Heroes. TV stations don't play it when athletes win medals, but they do blast it whenever the host network goes to commercial, comes back from commercial, or airs a commercial about their stellar Olympic coverage.\n\nThe official Olympic Anthem was written by a Greek composer named Spyros Samaras and it's played far less often. Details on Samaras are sparse, but this page from the 2004 Summer Games in Athens includes a few interesting tidbits. Samaras, already well-known for his operas, worked with Greek poet Costis Palamas on the anthem. As far as we can tell, Palamas wrote the words first and Samaras added the music later. Perhaps we shouldn't admit this, but we didn't even know there were lyrics.\n\nThe anthem was first performed at the Summer Games in Athens in 1896. In 1958, the International Olympic Committee named it the official anthem of the Olympics, and it's been played at every opening ceremony since 1964 (according to Wikipedia). Not bad. Though in terms of royalties, we'd rather be John Williams. Ca-ching!
