		The 33-year-old Knauss, giant slalom silver medallist at last year's world championships and one of Austria's most experienced and popular racers, is awaiting the result of a B test and could face a two-year ban.
		Austrian ski officials said they were investigating the possibility that Knauss, who has won seven World Cup races in a career stretching back to 1992, had taken a contaminated food supplement in a case similar to that of British tennis player Greg Rusedski.
		Briton Alain Baxter was stripped of his slalom bronze medal at the 2002 Salt Lake City Olympics after using an over-the-counter cold remedy containing a banned stimulant and Austrian Rainer Schoenfelder escaped with a warning after blaming a similar medicine for a positive test last season.

	World Cup Skiing: Miller Wins World Cup Overall Title
		LENZERHEIDE, Switzerland (March 12) - Bode Miller (Franconia, NH), looking to defend his World Cup giant slalom title and needing to finish 14th to clinch the overall crown, finished second Saturday in GS and became the first American to win a World Cup overall title in alpine since 1983.
		Austrian Stephan Goergl had the fastest time on each run Saturday as he won the GS at World Cup Finals in 2:10.51 and Miller, one day after his historic tie with teammate Daron Rahlves (Sugar Bowl, CA) in the super G, was second in 2:11.19.
		He has skied in every World Cup race over the last three seasons; the last time Miller - a Carrabassett Valley (ME) Academy graduate - did not enter a World Cup race was March 6, 2002 when he skipped the downhill at Finals in Lillehammer, Norway; his streak, including Saturday, is at 113 straight races.

		The fourth freshman, Phoebe Wolcott-McCausland (Fairfield, Vt./Smuggler's Notch Ski Club), will redshirt this season while recovering from an injury suffered last year in Super G. “Phoebe's mother was a former world cup ski racer, so we're hoping for a lot of talent out of her when she can rejoin the team,” Hauck said.
		Another of the sophomore class, Tyler Judkins (Farmington, Maine/Farmington Ski Club), is a solid skier who is working on his technique, and once he has fine-tuned that, he should be a solid skier and one constantly in the top tier of the conference.

		With his third consecutive podium finish of the World Cup finals that critics of his reckless style said would be his undoing, Miller had the final say, the last laugh, a few beers and the big crystal globe that goes to the World Cup overall champion.
		Miller did it his way, skiing every race, trying to win every race, instead of taking a break here or there like most racers or skiing more conservatively in some races to make sure he got to the finish line and earned points.
		Midway through the World Cup season, Miller hit a three-month winless streak, racking up 11 DNFs (did not finish), believed to be an all-time high for a World Cup overall champ.

		Alpine skiing is also a very popular sport, although not as much as in the Alpine countries (Austria, Germany, Slovenia..) because alpine skiing is geographically limited by the low altitude hills or flat lands of most of Sweden and Finland.

		The World Cup skiing circuit began Oct. 23 in Soelden, Austria, included stops in Beaver Creek and Aspen, Colo., and ends this weekend in Lenzerheide, where the first men's race is Thursday's downhill at 6:15 a.m.
		Miller added to the legend in the world championships in Bormio when he lost his left ski 15 seconds into the downhill portion of the combined, amazingly didn't fall and kept going, pointlessly but impressively, through the rest of the course on one ski.

		In the skiing countries of Europe, the World Cup is viewed with the same combination of traditionalist reverence and feeding-frenzy excitement that is reserved for Major League baseball in the United States.
		It is their game, played in their house; it is the province not only of hardcore fans, but of everyman and everywoman, who can quote you statistics on the World Cup leaders with the easy familiarity of a guy at a lunch counter telling you what Jeter's numbers are looking like.
		They are very much a part of the circus, in a sense: they're right in the middle of the action with everyone else, the media commotion and the crazy commercialization, the giant inflatable purple cows in the finish area, the drunken fans lobbing snowballs and worse.

		The purpose of the present paper was to study the extent of the home advantage in World Cup Alpine Skiing, a sport characterized by high task independence.
		Four performance measures were used: Federation International de Ski (F.I.S.) race points, difference between start seed and finish placement (with the results from second seed skiers only), number of skiers who did not finish (DNFs), and the number of skiers who did not qualify for the second of two runs (DNQs).
		The results were discussed in terms of their relationship to previous research with sports characterized by high task interdependence as well as potential causal mechanisms contributing to the home advantage in World Cup Alpine Skiing.
