The Olympic torch for the Games will be lit using a mirror to focus the sun’s rays in Olympia on Monday, according to BOCOG.
Greek mythology says the Sun God Apollo lit the Olympic flame to bring brightness and warmth to humanity. The flame will be handed over to BOCOG at 3 p.m. on March 30 at the Panathenian Stadium in Athens, the city where the first modern Olympics Games was held in 1896. After a reception in Beijing on March 31, the Olympic flame will begin its global tour of 135 cities on April 1.
The relay will cover 137,000 km in 130 days before the flame finally arrives at the National Stadium in Beijing on Aug 8, 2008 for the opening ceremony. The highlight of the torch relay, involving a total of 21,780 torchbearers, will be an attempt to take the Olympic flame to the summit of Mount Qomolangma, or Mount Everest as known in the west, in May.

An interesting article about sports injury to the eyes.
I used to do horseback jumping, and one of the biggest issues for me was to “center” the horse to a jump. Eyes play an important role in all sports far beyond just being able to see.
It is estimated that sports-related eye injuries account for more than 100,000 physician visits per year in the United States, at a cost of more than $175 million. Or, to put it another way, these recreation-related eye injuries represent around 10 percent of the total eye injuries occurring each year, according to Prevent Blindness America.

Johnson is one of the most recognisable figures in British politics ? partly attributable to his trademark unruly hairstyle (one exception to this trademark was during the 2008 Olympics). He is one of few British politicians identifiable by his first name alone. Reportedly, fearing that this familiarity made him more likeable and was helping his chances during the London Mayoral Campaign, Labour MP Tessa Jowell set up a 'swearbox' where any campaign member referring to him as 'Boris' would pay a fine.[57] Jowell herself denied these claims. Johnson has been a frequent target for satirists. The magazine Private Eye pictured him on the front cover of issues 1120 (26 November 2004) and 1156 (14 April 2006). He has featured regularly in its cartoon strip (currently called Dave Snooty and his Pals) as "Boris the Menace" (cf. Dennis the Menace). Online, the news satire website DeadBrain has published over 25 articles mentioning Johnson,[58] and the website Backing Boris spearheads a lighthearted campaign to advance his cause. He has shown himself to be outspoken on issues which are treated by some as belonging to the realms of political correctness. Johnson made the following comments about Islam in his Spectator column shortly after the July 7 bombings in 2005: ...It will take a huge effort of courage and skill to win round the many thousands of British Muslims who are in a similar state of alienation, and to make them see that their faith must be compatible with British values and with loyalty to Britain. That means disposing of the first taboo, and accepting that the problem is Islam. Islam is the problem. To any non-Muslim reader of the Koran, Islamophobia ? fear of Islam ? seems a natural reaction, and, indeed, exactly what that text is intended to provoke. Judged purely on its scripture ? to say nothing of what is preached in the mosques ? it is the most viciously sectarian of all religions in its heartlessness towards unbelievers. [...] The trouble with this disgusting arrogance and condescension [of Theo Van Gogh's killer] is that it is widely supported in Koranic texts, and we look in vain for the enlightened Islamic teachers and preachers who will begin the process of reform. What is going on in these mosques and madrasas? When is someone going to get 18th century on Islam's mediaeval ass?[59] In Friends, Voters, Countrymen (2001), Johnson wrote that "if gay marriage was OK - and I was uncertain on the issue - then I saw no reason in principle why a union should not be consecrated between three men, as well as two men, or indeed three men and a dog."[60] In recent years Johnson has played down his previous support for Section 28.[61] Johnson is known for his love of cycling and regularly cycles to work. He has been the victim of several bike thefts and has expressed his desire to plant "decoy bicycles throughout Islington and send Navy Seals in through the windows of thieves". [62]
