NEW YORK — Mike Eruzione’s sensational winning goal against the Soviet hockey team at the 1980 Winter Olympics will forever be remembered as the ‘‘Miracle On Ice’’ — perhaps the greatest sporting moment of the 20th century. More than a generation later, the 58-year-old Eruzione is parting with his iconic No. 21 USA jersey, hockey stick, and other Olympic paraphernalia. Dallas-based Heritage Auctions is selling the items in New York on Feb. 23, the day after the 33rd anniversary of the historic game. The white jersey alone is expected to fetch more than $1 million, but sports memorabilia experts think it could go considerably higher.

Fidelity Investments, the Boston financial-services company, is again urging the US Securities and Exchange Commission to refrain from implementing additional rules for the regulation of money market mutual funds. According to Fidelity, the nation’s largest manager of money market mutual funds, a rule revised in 2010 “significantly reduced the risk” across all types of money market funds and as a result, no further reform is needed at this time. And if the SEC does decide that rule changes are necessary, Fidelity added, then such changes should be “narrowly tailored.” Japan Airlines has canceled its Boston-Tokyo service on Feb. 2 and 3, as the carrier continues to adjust its schedule to compensate for the grounded Boeing 787 Dreamliner that normally serves the route. The airline previously canceled its Jan. 30 Boston-Tokyo flight. The airline will continue to operate its other daily Boston flights on a Boeing 777 between the two cities, with departure times delayed by about six hours on designated days.

In today’s economy, a company’s designers, suppliers, accountants, and marketing staff can frequently be located in offices all over the world, and PLM gives such companies software collaboration tools designed to help them speed products to market.
