		Remember that to be an Austrian is to have a vocation, which is a higher calling than merely adopting a profession, as Joe Salerno has said.
		Sometimes, it is helpful to distract yourself (music, sports, whatever turns you on) when writing and research have hit a stopping point.

		The Austrians, indeed, have struggled in the last two Winter Olympics while the U.S. men overachieved dramatically in 1994 when Tommy Moe won the gold in the downhill and silver in the Super-G. The U.S. skiers like to say they play for keeps at the Winter Games.
		They theorize that the Austrians are so concerned about accruing World Cup points that they treat the Olympics like any other competition.
		Today, the only happy Austrians seemed to be Andreas Schifferer, who pre-qualified for a downhill spot, and Hannes Trinkl, who earned a place with his No. 2 finish in today's trial.

	Despite Negative Tests, Doping Case to Continue - New York Times
		The case is complicated for both Olympics organizers and the Italian police: The police raid against Austrian cross-country and biathlon skiers last Saturday ratcheting up the long fight against doping by involving the police and possible criminal penalties against Olympic athletes and coaches.
		But it seems to be turning out that the police involvement was essential to the accusations against the Austrians: Even though the tests on the athletes' urine samples came back negative for stimulants, steroids, EPO and masking agents, they will still be left with the physical evidence seized at the raid last Saturday night.
		Giovanni Zotta, an Italian Health Ministry official and the nation's top anti-doping official at the Olympics, said the tests on all 10 Austrian biathlon and cross-country skiers, including two who fled immediately after a police raid on Saturday, were negative.

	Aspen Times News for Aspen Colorado - Sports
		Because skiing is not a major sport in America, the ones who have taken notice more than anyone else are probably the Austrians themselves.
		This is in part because of their unconditional love for anything and everything having to do with the sport, but also because the once-lowly Americans have suddenly become a serious threat to the Austrian stranglehold on the ladder’s top rung.
		Hoedlmoser said he sees it every day on the hill; the Austrians now watch American racers — specifically Lindsey Kildow among the women — take their training runs and pay careful attention to what equipment they’re using, which can be a high compliment in ski racing.
