he countdown to the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro reaches 1,000 days onSaturday. Sidney Levy knows it's time to start producing tangible results.
Levy, the chief executive officer of the Rio Games, had something to show for his work on Thursday at the unveiling of the pictograms that will represent every Olympic and Paralympic sport.
