Candace Parker scored 21 points and grabbed 11 rebounds, as the United States women's basketball team soundly defeated France, 86-50, on Saturday night to win the gold medal game at the 2012 Summer Olympics in London.

US Olympic gymnast Gabby Douglas won perhaps the most coveted title in her sport when she took the gold medal in the women's all-around competition on Thursday in London, becoming the first African-American female gymnast to ever win individual Olympic gold.

The Olympic creed begins “The most important thing in the Olympic Games is not to win but to take part.”

The Tour De France finished up yesterday. My husband is British and this is the first year he has gotten into watching the Tour De France.
