INTERNATIONAL OLYMPIC COMMITTEE - OLYMPIC GAMES (263 words)
In 1986 the IOC voted to change the schedule of the Olympic Games so that the Summer and Winter Games would be held in different years.
To adjust to this new schedule, the Lillehammer Games were held in 1994, the only time that two Games have been staged two years apart.
The 1994 Games were extremely well organised and the Norwegian host' natural love of winter sports added a refreshing purity of spirit.
Winter Olympics - MSN Encarta (1241 words)
The Olympics organization is headed by a president, elected by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) members for an initial period of eight years.
Alpine skiing, for men and women, has been part of the Olympic programme since 1948: the events are the downhill, the slalom, the giant slalom (since 1952), the super giant slalom or super-G (since 1988), and the combined event (downhill and slalom), which has been staged intermittently since 1936.
Figure skating has been an ever-present event at the Games with the men’s and women’s figures; the pairs was introduced in 1908 and the ice dance in 1976.
