My all-time favorite dive was performed at twilight by a Hawaiian man who leapt from a cliff while holding a flaming torch in one hand. I am pretty sure we won't see any torches during any of the aquatics events, but I know they will all be thrilling nonetheless. And the venue, also known as the "Water Cube" is, in and of itself, a wonder to behold.

If you are lucky enough to be heading to Beijing to see some of the Olympic action, be sure to take along this new guide from Zagat. It will help you find your way to restaurants and hotels in your price range, as well as give you some ideas for things to do in between games and competitions. As the Olympics draw to a close, I am deeply humbled by the dedication of the many athletes who have participated in these events. Many went completely unnoticed, thrilled to simply be a part of the Games. A lucky few exceeded even their own expectations. And one particularly talented individual kept setting record after record with unprecedented focus and sublime athleticism. Thank you to Michael Phelps for lifting our spirits, raising the bar and demonstrating grace both in and out of the swimming pool.

Needless to say, I am well aware of the keen hand-eye coordination required of handball athletes. Unfortunately, the U.S. does not have a team competing in this sport. To see what it will take for us to make the cut in 2012, watch these athletes: Ivano Balic (Croatia); Pascal Hens (Germany); Bertrand Gille (France); Didier Dinart (France); Nikola Karabatic (France); and Gro Hammerseng (Norway).

Four of these Fuwa represent a popular Chinese animal, while the fifth represents an enduring symbol of Olympic competition. Beibei (blue) is the fish; Jingjing (black) is the Panda; Huanhuan (red) is the Olympic flame; Yingying (yellow) is the Tibetan antelope; and Nini (green) is the swallow. When you string the first syllable of the names together, the Chinese characters announce "Welcome to Beijing ! " The most important mission of these irresistible characters is to spread a message of peace and friendship throughout the world. If that is all that the Games manage to accomplish, it will be a rousing success.

Interestingly enough, the women's gymnastics team finals will be held on August 13, 2008. Competition between China and the USA will be intense, so women's Team USA members Shawn Johnson, Nastia Liukin, Chellsie Memmel, Alicia Sacramone, Samantha Peszek and Bridget Sloan need all the support they can get . . . and a little luck wouldn't hurt either.

Not because he has been injured. And not because he isn't one of the best in his chosen sport. It's just that Kenyon is, well, a guy. And guys are currently not allowed to compete in synchronized swimming. Perhaps things will change for the 2012 Games in London. In the meantime, check out a preview of his style and personality, courtesy of YouTube.
