Behind the Sochi Olympic Curtain

Margaret Maradudin, a definitive authority of all things Russian, takes the show's full hour, to pull aside the curtain of the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympic Games. As a prelude to viewing the Olympics, the Russian Television broadcast of Vladimir Putin's 2007 IOC meeting in Guatemala is very compelling. Among Peggy Maradudin's many insights are her recommendations that Olympic viewers follow the Games' coverage on the following websites among others for additional perspective: http://en.ria.ru/russia, http://themoscownews.com/, http://english.pravda.ru/, http://www.themoscowtimes.com/ For seniors who wish to hear Ms.Maradudin's lectures, you can enroll at extension.uci.edu/olli or 949-451-1403.
