In this Feb. 14, 2010 photo, Dale Begg-Smith of Australia makes his moguls final run at the Vancouver 2010 Olympics in Vancouver, British Columbia. Begg-Smith said he's ready to chase after another Olympic medal after taking nearly three years off to rest his aching body. The 29-year-old moguls skier captured gold at the 2006 Turin Games and silver four years later in Vancouver. Given his long layoff, he knows he's not the favorite at the Sochi Olympics, but likes the underdog role. (AP Photo/Mark J. Terrill)

In this photo taken Saturday, Feb. 8, 2014, performers get ready backstage before a performance at the Mayak cabaret, the most reputable gay club in Sochi, Russia, host to 2014 Winter Olympics. Russia adopted a law last year, prohibiting vaguely defined propaganda of non-traditional sexual relations and pedophilia. The legislation makes it illegal to disseminate information to children even if it merely shows that gay people are just like everybody else. At Mayak, packed on Saturday night, gay men and women steered away from discussing the law, preferring to enjoy life, closeted as it is. About a hundred people were chatting at the bar, sitting in armchairs or dancing. Couples were sharing kisses. Everyone was waiting for the club's specialty: a drag show. At 1.30 a.m. on Sunday, the music stopped and the show began. (AP Photo/David Goldman)
