Lindsay KinesCanwest Olympic TeamHow do you like us now, Lawrence?
The Vancouver Winter Games, which British golf writer Lawrence donegan — after only three days! — suggested might go down in history as the “worst ever,” put on their best face saturday.
Under blue skies and a warming sun, thousands of people from around the world took to the city’s streets, clogging major thoroughfares like Robson and Granville that have been converted to pedestrian malls.
street performers could scarcely believe their good fortune as people lined up five and six deep to watch the shows. On every corner, two traffic cops struggled to control the rivers of people — never mind cars.
For those from Vancouver and the Lower Mainland, it was unlike anything they’d ever seen before.
“never,” said Kevin neustaedter, 52, from Coquitlam. “i bought tickets to one event and i was only going to go for one event.”
But then people kept telling him how much fun it was downtown, so he showed up saturday to soak up the carnival atmosphere and take in the evening fireworks.
“The hype is building on the hype,” he said. “There’s no doubt about it.”
Over at the Royal Canadian Mint Pavilion, shavi and
Melissa Morsara and friends Megan Kennedy and shannon nichol expected to wait up to seven hours to see Olympic medals up close.
“Our city’s known to be not too exciting,” shavi
Morsara said. “This is an indication if you bring the right venues to town how people come out. it’s good to see. it’s so positive, a good

Watch the hyperbole
Slate.com is taking the scientific approach to NBC’s tearstained
coverage of the Olympics: a daily “Sap-o-Meter” that
measures the use of 35 sappy words. “Courage,” “mom,”
“determination” and “tragedy” all make the cut.
Canadian snowboarder Alex Bilodeau merited a mention with an emotional speech
about his older brother Frederic, but VANOC chief John Furlong scored the sappiest line of the Olympics thus far with an
opening ceremonies address that featured five “magics”, a
“heart” and a “dream.”
colbert loves ice-holes
Stephen Colbert’s visit to Vancouver is turning into a
love-fest. North Van salmon activist
Mary-Sue Atkinson sat in on the taping of his show this
week and collected a special “touch.”

Photographic access to the Olympic cauldron has been improved twice in response to the public outcry about the ugly security fencing that surrounded it at 1055 Canada Place.
FrUstratinG day For canadaBenjaMin [email protected]’s no way to sugarcoat it: Saturday was a day of disappointments for Canada’s Olympians.
at the Richmond Olympic Oval, the home crowd hung its hopes on denny Morrison to medal in men’s 1,500-metre speed skating. skating in the 16th pair, Morrison led Russia’s ivan skobrev through the 700-metre and 1,100-metre splits before fading badly. Morrison’s time would later stand up as ninth.
The story at the Oval that afternoon was dutchman Mark Tuitert’s upset win over american shani davis. norway’s Havard Bokko won bronze.
Heading north to the Pacific Coliseum and short-track speed skating, all three Canadian women qualified in the 1,500-metre event heats. Veteran skater Tania Vicent placed a close second going into the semifinals. But Vicent would have to go it alone in the finals after Valerie Maltais came last in her race and Kalyna Roberge fell in hers. Vicent did not threaten for the podium, and China’s yang Zhou won gold with her Olympic-record-setting pace. south Korea’s eun-Byul Lee and seung-Hi Park won silver and bronze.

Colbert threatens to steal torch beThany [email protected] atkinson is the proud owner of an olympic torch touched by 2,010 people, with the very last caress bestowed by none other than Stephen Colbert.
north vancouver’s atkinson was a torchbearer as the olympic flame made its way through squamish; she swam her leg in honour of her volunteer work to conserve salmon and sturgeon.
“i swam against the current like a wild salmon on my run,” atkinson said.
she got the idea for 2,010 torch touches after travelling to whistler on the evening of her torch run.
“about 1,000 people from all over the world held the torch,” atkinson said.
on the final day of the torch relay, atkinson said she took her torch downtown to the vancouver library and started racking up her touch count. “i had 10 hours of people actually touching the torch,” she said.
“you just can’t stop. you can’t say no,” she said. but she added that she doesn’t get tired of the crowds wanting to touch the torch, “because what is so energizing is their reaction.”
Then when she heard that colbert would be taping his show The Colbert Report in vancouver, she knew he was the perfect person to give the final tap. “i love him,” she said.
atkinson showed up for the taping holding a sign reading be my 2010th Torch Toucher.
“i guess they spotted it. when he came out he asked for my torch,” she said. “i’m very lucky, so i’m really not surprised that it happened.”
colbert joked around with the crowd, and threatened to steal the torch.
“basically he said, you’re never going to see this torch again,” atkinson said.
The show was a great experience, too, she added. “it was wonderful to be able to see michael bublé. he did some great bantering with stephen colbert.” and colbert made his peace with the audience of canadian ice-holes. “in the end he admitted he loved us.”
with her goal accomplished, atkinson said she’s not quite done collecting touches. “i have a few more in mind, actually. i’m thinking gold medal winners.”
With unseasonably warm temperatures giving Vancouver
2010 organizers a series of scheduling and venue
maintenance headaches, imagine the beads of sweat forming on
the brows of their counterparts in Sochi, Russia.
The host city of the 2014 Games posted a balmy temperature of
15 degrees Celsius Saturday, five degrees warmer than Vancouver.

BEthaNy [email protected] a bid to raise money for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, a North Vancouver woman is auctioning off a ticket to the Olympic snowboard parallel giant slalom event.
Rebecca hathaway, a volunteer with the society, is selling the ticket to the Feb. 26 event to reach help her reach her goal of $3,800 in sponsorship funds for competing in the Vancouver Marathon in May on behalf of the society’s team in training program.
the snowboard ticket is up for auction on EBay, under hathaway’s seller name runnerbec2010.
the auction began on Feb. 16 with a starting bid of $125, and will close on Feb. 23.
hathaway is raising money to support leukemia and lymphoma research in honour of her best friend, Claire Firth, who was diagnosed with an aggressive form of Non-hodgkin’s Lymphoma in January, two days after hathaway moved to North Vancouver from England.

B.C. throws a party for the worldvibe and different types of culture.”
tourists from other countries raved about the party atmosphere. the orange-clad Van denboom family from holland — mother, Fieny, in a traditional dutch bonnet — wandered Robson posing for pictures with Canadians in red hockey jerseys.
“it’s wonderful,” said Rob Van denboom.
“awesome,” added brother Bram.
“and the people are friendly as well,” said father Jos.
the British media, they said, have no idea what they’re talking about.
“it’s only the British,” said Jos. “they were always separate.”
German tourist torsten danke, who got his picture taken with two Mounties in red serge at the corner of Granville and hastings, said he was most taken with the friendly service and the number of people who stopped to ask where he was from.
“you don’t have it in Europe like this,” he said.Even Olympic organizers and tourist officials have been
surprised at the level of enthusiasm.“the reaction of our city and i think the entire country has
been overwhelming,” said dave Cobb, deputy chief executive officer of the Vancouver organizing committee. “i’ve lived in this city my whole life and have never seen this type of excitement.”
the crowds have got so big, in fact, that Vancouver police have asked for reinforcements to deal with the numbers at night. But Const. Lindsey houghton said that, except for a number of
liquor-fuelled incidents, there have been relatively few problems. Crime, in fact, is down nearly 40 per cent over the same period last year.
“the attitude and vibe has been unbelievably positive,” he said.
Will it all be enough for Vancouver to shed the early criticism about a malfunctioning cauldron, early transportation glitches, and the lack of snow on Cypress Mountain?
tourism Vancouver president Rick antonson believes it will. he likens the Games to the performance by B.C. snowboarder Maëlle Ricker.
“She came out of the gates on her first trial that morning and slipped and got up and by the end of the day, we saw what she was made of. and she was gold.
“i think what we’re seeing, despite the early glitches with these Games, is what British Columbians are made of.”
Granville Street in Vancouver is a party zone every night of the Olympics, but the crowds were especially heavy Friday night and police asked liquor stores to close early Saturday night.

event, both Hamelin brothers Charles and Francois qualified for the five-man final, giving the Canadian team its best chance for a medal finish.
But it was not to be. Despite both Hamelins leading early, they could not stand up against Apolo Anton Ohno of the United States or the Koreans. Francois ran out of gas in the last lap, and Charles could not break onto the podium. Jung-Su Lee and Ho-Suk Lee took gold and silver to add to Korea’s impressive skating record, and also help Korea vault over Canada in the overall medal count. Ohno’s bronze made him the single most decorated American Winter Olympian in history.
Things were also going south further north, at the Whistler Sliding Centre. The first of Canada’s two-man bobsleigh teams, Lyndon Rush and Lascelles Brown, were clocking in at third after the first of four heats. But in the following run, their sled careened out of turn 13, the ominously named 50-50 with such force that it flipped over. Fortunately neither man was injured, but the crash leaves it virtually impossible for them to challenge for a medal. In slightly happier news, Canada’s second team, Pierre Lueders and Jesse Lumsden, improved to sixth spot after two runs and may still have a shot at bronze.
Canada’s male curling team preserved their undefeated record, fending off arch-nemesis Great Britain 7-6. The Britons have beaten Kevin Martin’s rink in the four previous matchups, but two Canadian points in the last end provided the come-from-behind win.
Canada produced its best-ever result in men’s 30-kilometre pursuit cross-country skiing. Ivan Babikov placed fifth, followed by George Grey in eighth, Alex Harvey in ninth and Devon Kershaw in 16th. None
were serious threats to gold medallist Marcus Hellner of Sweden. Tobias Angerer finished second for silver and Sweden also took bronze with Johan Olsson.
Austria’s Andrea Fischbacher was the surprise winner in women’s Super G alpine skiing, leading Slovenia’s Tina Maze and leaving only bronze for American Lindsey Vonn. Former West Vancouverite Britt Janyk placed 17th and newcomer Georgia Simmerling came 27th.
Lastly, the large hill ski jumping event produced an identical result to the earlier normal hill contest. Swiss jumper Simon Ammann flew 144 metres for his second gold, followed by Poland’s Adam Malysz picking up a matching silver and Austrian Gregor Schlierenzauer doubling his bronzes.
BeTHANy [email protected] were waiting as long as 1.5 hours yesterday at Lonsdale Quay to catch a SeaBus to downtown Vancouver, ending a week that has seen a 200 per cent increase in ridership for the ferry service.
TransLink reported that lineups at the North Vancouver SeaBus terminal were so long in the early afternoon yesterday that volunteers from the Salvation Army arrived to hand out bottled water.
By about 4 p.m., the queue had shrunk to a slightly more bearable 30-45 minute wait, and an hour later, TransLink was reporting that the wait had dropped to one sailing, or about 10 minutes.
In the first week of the Olympic Games, TransLink measured an average of about 48,000 riders hopping on the SeaBus every day, up 200 per cent from normal levels.
Overall, about 1.6 million people each day have used the TransLink system during the first week of the Olympics, and average daily bus ridership increased by about 34 per cent.
West Vancouver buses have also been busy. “I’d say we’ve at least doubled in ridership,” said Blue Bus transit manager Gareth Rowlands.
In Horseshoe Bay, “at
times we’re having to use eight buses for one ferry,” said Rowlands of the crowds of foot passengers making their way on to transit.
As the second weekend of the Games opened, transportation services reported massive crowds of people descending on Vancouver. The first ferry to arrive at Horseshoe Bay carried an estimated 850 foot passengers.
There’s proof that many of these extra transit users have taken TransLink’s advice and are planning their trips before leaving home. The online Trip Planner service has been
inundated with as many as 51,000 requests, while the customer information lines handled a peak of 7,400 phone calls on Friday.
The City of Vancouver reported record numbers of people walking, cycling and taking the bus since the games began.
Vehicle traffic was down 30 per cent on Feb. 12, the day of the opening ceremonies.
Traffic heading over the Lions Gate Bridge was down during the first week from a usual daily average of 61,000 vehicles to just over 54,000 vehicles.

optimistic about competing in the 2014 Paralympic Winter Games in Sochi, Russia
Before I became a paraplegic, I was involved in gymnastics and was supposed to be in the Summer Olympic
Games. Most people don’t get the chance for one Games; I’ve had two. I feel very privileged to get the
opportunity again, and obviously I’m embracing it. I’m hoping to forerun for at least one of the 2010 Paralympic
Games races at Whistler, so I’m training hard. However, my main goal is to make the national team for 2014.
Why I am …
