Rio de Janeiro 2016 Ceremonies.
brasilolimpico replied to Alexjc's topic in Rio 2016 Ceremonies Discussions
I do not think Brazil and Portugal relationship is as strong as the relationship between Australia and the UK. Australia and the United Kingdom are longtime partners in addition, Australia and the United Kingdom shared history to a close almost 80 years ago. In the 2014 World Cup, few Brazilians had Portugal as 'second team' most opted for Germany, Italy, Spain and etc. I opted for England and Germany. I have not met anyone who twisted by Portugal in 2014. And now the Euro 16, most Brazilians rooting for France, Italy, Germany, Belgium, etc. But Brazil and Portugal follow different paths since 1822. -

All that structure in the stands removed many seats. I think from 10.000 to 15.000 are lost with all this, or have impaired vision. About erratically, I am also curious, but I think it will be a 'skeleton' and the ceremony will take layers on that space most of the time. About applause for delegations probably Portugal, Argentina (although Brazil is a rival in football), perhaps the United States and Spain are also applauded. Already booed delegations I bet on Venezuela and Cuba, because the Brazilian political sentiment being negative to the government of the two countries, which are closely linked to the PT and the Lula government and Rousseff. Do not bet on striking reactions stadium for delegations such as France, Britain and China. Bet more in Russia, Japan and Jamaica, the latter was well received at the Pan American 2007. -

So far it does not give to know what the directors intend with this black area and also with white. Much mystery, I'm anxious. -
These protests are very small. The overwhelming majority of people go to see the torch. In 2012 bet there were also protests, but is very small. - The torch arrives this week to my Paraná, this is amazing! Too bad it will pass 200 km from my house and I will not see. - Just to complete my Brazilian friend. Yes, we are not finding Temer the most honest president, myself just think Dilma and Party government of bad workers. While world out of the crisis between 2011 and 2016, Brazil followed the opposite path, okay, this is Brazil!

2016 Political Crisis in Brazil
brasilolimpico replied to Ikarus360's topic in Rio de Janeiro 2016 Summer Games
I'm from parana. This Gleisi Hoffmann is the Workers Party, the same as Lula and Dilma and was elected senator in my state in 2010. It is recognized as one of the greatest defenders of Dilma. Well, besides all that the media has been reporting, I do not know how she does it in Paraná, one of the most contrary to the Workers' Party states, he tried to be governor of the state, but was in 3rd place in 2014, through the liberal candidate, Beto Richa and former governor Requiao, who finished 2nd. The Workers' Party, without Lula does not have a strong name to run for president. Lula himself has 57% rejection among Brazilians, according to a survey by Datafolha in March. The Workers' Party has a big challenge ahead. -

The Maracana may have several disadvantages: - Field with no running track, which gives less room to use the OC. - Inputs and outputs of smaller than normal fields. - Chairs in very close to the ground places. But an advantage could be exploited. I took a look at the schedule of events at the Maracana, and they will have 10 days to get the stadium a soccer match. What is very good, can you work hard in the opening, with the field having more time for repairs. In the closing ceremony, there is also more space will be three days, can you build something more interesting there. -
This is amazing!

2016 Political Crisis in Brazil
brasilolimpico replied to Ikarus360's topic in Rio de Janeiro 2016 Summer Games
Well, there are four Brazilians commenting here. Three are contrary to Dilma. - The Brazil is improving the economy. Last week the Dilma government the economic indicators followed by falls, the economy should shrink -3.9%, now the forecast is 3.4% for this year and next year already with growth of 1% .. Moreover, the expectation is that this year the economy will return to high. In 40 days, Temer did more for our economy than Dilma in four years. -

Well, regardless of how it will be the OC in something they are good. Keep secret. Besides those big screens of LED should be used in projections (we knew it 20 days or more), we did not reach any new conclusion, each photo appears remove a 'earlier conclusion'. Even these days the possibility of water was strong, now is low. The Maracana is a challenge for any opening ceremony. Not the most suitable stadiums, as mentioned here have small entrances, small space and low seats. Let's see what the river offers us (just hope they are not human rings) -
Yes, the Left hopes that Dilma return to power. But even after the alleged quote from Temer in Lava jet until the party recognizes that it does not help Dilma. Chances in her time is very low. Even the thesis of new elections that left some sectors ask, is not good ... Lula is the candidate rejected by voters, Dilma is not an option, the party has no other national prominence name at the time. There is in Brazil a popular expression that fits well: The government will move heavens and earth by the Olympics. No need to worry about security, it will be reinforced ... are minimal chances of episodes like this happen in August, when 85,000 forces will assist in Rio.

If done vertically the olympic rings will be amazing. Sochi wanted to make rings of snowflakes, but it did not work. Then we had this end, whether or not improvised not matter. The summit failed when the ring did not open. The Singapore at least in this picture was not good. The Athens 2004 happened, okay, but not surprising. Incidentally, Athens 2004 had no memory of the spectators rings Beijing and London. Viewers saw the masterpieces in London and Beijing, and now will see rings formed by people like in Singapore or Sochi? Oh, I think it will be disappointing. BC PLACE gave many opportunities for the ceremony, yet found the opening tedious Vancouver. But a space that size has potential. This is video of 'Rio 2016: The Rings in Copacabana' The rings appear from 2:50 Was good? Yes. But for an application, not an opening Olympics. -
The situation of some Brazilian states is critical. Namely: Rio de Janeiro, Minas Gerais and Rio Grande do Sul. Good financial health is rare, my state Paraná has the largest surplus in revenues among all states. Rio de Janeiro is dependent on oil (pre-salt is expensive to explore and oil prices are low), the government is bloated and spends too much. The Olympics came with a high price, but you can rest assured the event will go well and that financial disaster will not impact the game. The President Temer already sent resources.

The left did not get the support of the population, where two thirds support the impeachment. Failing to get the support of the Brazilian tries support of foreigners. - Who sees these 'big' protests at Olympic Park, thinks that Brazil is experiencing a civil war. Ace things go well, even if new allegations of corruption do not appear, at least in my city, I saw no one who supported the impeachment regret. Foreigners can come quiet, are welcome!
