Today is the opening ceremony in the XXI Olympic Winter Games.
But that ceremony is marred by the death of a member of the Republic of Georgia luge team has he crashed going 90 mph.
Nodar Kumaritashvili, 21, was competing in his first Olympic winter games.
Amid the tragedy, the city of Vancouver is rife with anticipation as the Olympic torch makes way through the city.
Hopefully, the tragic death of Mr. Kumaritashvili will not cast an overall pall on the games.
