	Winter Olympics - MSN Encarta
		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.
		Lugeing entered the Olympic repertoire in 1964 and has been dominated by German participants; men compete for singles and doubles events, while women vie for singles only.
