<title>A look back at the Olympics</title>
<link>http://www.northcountrypublicradio.org/news/story/15344/20100309/a-look-back-at-the-olympics</link>
<description><![CDATA[ (Mar 9, 2010) Lake Placid-based photographer Nancie Battaglia was NCPR’s eyes, and ears, during the Vancouver Olympic games. Battaglia came to Lake Placid to document the 1980 Winter Olympics, and she’s is now an experienced Olympic “regular.” Vancouver was her eighth games, seventh winter games.  She shoots for a number of publications, including Sport Illustrated. This year she not only sent us great shots of local athletes at the games, she found their families and fans, too, and checked in on-air during breaks in the action. Martha Foley called her for a final conversation this week. She’s been back for about a week, catching up, catching her breath. She left early on the final Sunday – missing the climactic US Canada hockey game, but also ahead of the crowds that jammed the region’s airports that night and the next day.

<title>More struggles for North Country Olympians</title>
<link>http://www.northcountrypublicradio.org/news/story/15253/20100219/more-struggles-for-north-country-olympians</link>
<description><![CDATA[ (Feb 19, 2010) The Winter Olympics in Vancouver are just about halfway done. There are just four medal events on the schedule today, and they&apos;re all being held at Whistler. First up is the men&apos;s Super G. Bode Miller will be looking for his second medal of these games. In cross-country skiing, the women compete in the 15 kilometer pursuit. Finally, at the Whistler Sliding Center, both the women and the men will complete the skeleton. Weather forecasts look good, if a tad warm. After a cold night, skies should be clear with highs in the low 40s.Overall, the US team is leading the medal count. Last night,  figure skater Evan Lysacek added to the gold medal count, the first American to win gold since Brian Boitano in 1988. We&apos;ve been following the dozen-plus North Country athletes in Vancouver, and they&apos;ve had their disappointments this week. Martha Foley has more.

<link>http://www.northcountrypublicradio.org/news/story/6981/20060228/the-olympics-done-memories-of-food-and-games</link>
<description><![CDATA[ (Feb 28, 2006) The Winter Olympics are all done in Turin, Italy.  It was a rocky few weeks for some of America&apos;s athletes.  Lake Placid&apos;s sled teams fell far short of the medal count that they racked up four years ago in Salt Lake City.  The U.S. Hockey team melted down.  Brian Mann has been checking in with Lake Placid photographer Nancie Battaglia, who was our correspondent at the games.  She&apos;s back home now and told Brian that the Winter Olympics had plenty of highs as well as lows.
