Swimmers brave the cold to pose for a photo holding up makeshift Olympic Rings on January 26, 2008 in Tianjin, in northern China near Beijing. China's 40-billion USD welcome mat is almost in place as Beijing prepares to woo the world to the Olympic Games in August. In the lead-up to the February 8 six-month countdown, the country's rulers called for a final push for the success of an event seen as a chance to trumpet China's transformation from poverty to economic powerhouse within a generation.
