Thomas Bach, a gold-medalist in his time, has been elected
as the new head of the IOC (International Olympic Committee). The link

"I want to thank all my friends and colleagues who voted for me," Bach said after the decision. "I know of the great responsibility of an IOC president. This makes me humble."That's nice, Tom. Now go straighten out this Russian gay-pogrom thing -- and get back to us right away. The world is waiting.
