Olympic Stadium Montreal Canada 加拿大蒙特利尔奥林匹克馆

Duration:4.03min  Views:4970 Description:The Olympic Stadium (French: Stade Olympique) is a stadium in Montreal, Quebec, Canada built as the main venue for the 1976 Summer Olympics. It subsequently became the home of Montreal's professional baseball and Canadian football teams. The Olympic swimming pool is located under this tower. An Olympic velodrome (since converted to the Montreal Biodome, an indoor nature museum) was situated at the base of the tower in a building similar in design to the swimming pool. The building was built as the main stadium for the 1976 Summer Olympic Games. The stadium was host to various events including: the opening and closing ceremonies, athletics, football finals, and some equestrian events. 加拿大蒙特利尔奥林匹克赛馆。

Duration:8.65min  Views:2778 Description:On 8/2/2008, our Dee's Electric Scrappers (9-10 yo) were selected to take the field with the 2008 US Olympic Baseball team at the Durham Bulls Park in an exhibition game with Canada.

Good luck to the US in the Olympics.

Taiwan baseball team qualifes for Olympics

Duration:2.67min  Views:2645 Description:The people of Taiwan were thrilled on Thursday after their baseball team qualified for the Beijing Olympics by beating South Africa 4-0. The win took Taiwan's record to 5-1 in the week-long tournament, good enough for a spot at the August Games even if they lose their final encounter against South Korea on Friday. South Korea are assured an Olympic berth despite going down 4-3 to Canada, who have also qualified. However, celebration had begun on Wednesday (March 12) after a key victory against Australia. "I have been watching since the beginning of the games, and the game against Australia was my favorite. I watched with friends in a restaurant, and we all support the Chinese Taipei team. We must win against South Africa today and get into the Olympics, and that's why we're here," said a baseball fan, Chen Pei-wen. "A few injured players were not able to participate the games, but as long as we're in the Olympic games, I am happy," added Chen Li-chuan, another fan. Taiwan's view of the Olympics is otherwise chilled by politics. Beijing has claimed self-ruled Taiwan as its territory since the end of the Chinese civil war in 1949 and pledged to bring the island under its rule by force if necessary. China tried to use the Games to charm Taiwan last year by offering it a stop on the Olympic torch route but the island government declined. Taiwan have also beaten Germany, Italy and Mexico in this week's tournament. The team, officially dubbed Chinese Taipei for the Olympics, lost narrowly to Canada. In June, the Swiss city of Geneva will be topping the travel itinerary of many European soccer fans as the Euro 2008 soccer tournament gets underway. Geneva and the cities of Bern, Basel and Zurich in Switzerland, along with Innsbruck, Salzburg, Klagenfurt and Vienna in Austria will be hosting the championship. The two host countries and UEFA, European soccer's governing body, say they want to make this tournament as environmentally friendly as possible. That means measures are in place to save energy, manage waste and convince fans to use public transport to travel to Austria and Switzerland. In this way, they are following in the footsteps of the World Cup held in neighbouring Germany in 2006. Martin Kallen, director of Euro 2008, told Reuters Television that they are not ready yet, but are confident that everything will be ready on time for the first match: "There is still a lot to do, but up until now we have reached every milestone and the situation looks good that we will be ready on 6 June and on 7 June at 6 o'clock on the dot can blow the opening whistle of Euro 2008 and we will be in top form."
