FOR STORY GEORGIA LUGER - In this photo taken Friday, Jan. 17, 2014 David Kumaritashvili, father of the Georgian luger Nodar Kumaritashvili killed during a training run at the 2010 Vancouver Olympics, sits in the room of his son at home in Bakuriani, Georgia. David Kumaritashvili laments that his country will have no one competing in the luge event when the games get under way next month in nearby Sochi. His son, Nodar Kumaritashvili, died when he lost control of his sled at nearly 145 kph (90 mph), flew off course and slammed into a steel pole. He was 21 and preparing to compete in his first Olympics halfway around the world in Vancouver, Canada. (AP Photo/Shakh Aivazov)
