Passengers arriving in London are receiving a military style welcome with music to celebrate the installation of the rings. All of the Olympic action can been seen only on Channel 3.

Ohio really is the heart of it all. Starbucks coffee has selected a small ceramics company in East Liverpool, Ohio to make its new line of coffee mugs.

They are hoping that their use of the media will find the couple who lost the ring so they can be reunited.
