DannyelBrazil Posted November 28, 2011 Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 My initially low expectations and upset over Chicago's loss are quickly being raised... i'm getting excited about Rio! After all, Rio city and its people are not guilty for Chicago loss... And if the opposite have happened I would be upset, but not with the winner... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DannyelBrazil Posted November 28, 2011 Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 The making of the Rio logos. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nShXIUbZQK0 I can imagine the tombstone of Stir when he died: "He spent all his life upset by the defeat of Chicago for the 2016 Olympics.

Soaring Posted November 28, 2011 Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 just an OK logo for me. I like the 3D concept, and sculpture appeal, but it is not breathtaking or groundbreaking. Again, I don't expect to be wowed by Olympic Games logos. I think it Rio has better logos than the last few for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baron-pierreIV Posted November 28, 2011 Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 I didn't get why they are using the inscription "JOGOS PARALÍMPICOS" (PARALYMPIC GAMES) in both Portuguese and English version. My guess is that compared to the IOC (which has French & ENglish as its official languages), the IPC is more open to the local language or script.

Sir Rols Posted November 29, 2011 Report Share Posted November 29, 2011 In looking at the logo now, it makes me think of women's underwear. Great mate. Now you've said that, I'm never gonna be able to look at it any other way! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gangwon Posted November 29, 2011 Report Share Posted November 29, 2011 In looking at the logo now, it makes me think of women's underwear. This is Brazil. That's prob what they wanted!

baron-pierreIV Posted November 29, 2011 Report Share Posted November 29, 2011 OK...so we have a cock ring for the Olympics and a thong-panty for the Para's. Leave it to the Brazilians!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oakydoky Posted November 29, 2011 Report Share Posted November 29, 2011 So, it's nice!!! Who don't like some women's underwear? From the pics I've seen, Britney Spears and Paris Hilton are not all that keen on women's underwear. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bgdrewsif Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 As Sisqo would say... thong, to thong, thong, thong. Wow... thats a classic... just think that in about 60 years there will be a whole bunch of grannies with wrinkled lower-back tattoos rolling around in their wheelchairs with their geriatric depends-thongs hanging out... it will be great...

gotosy Posted May 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 IPC Athletics propose record 78 female medal events at Rio 2016 The international governing body of Para-athletics has proposed a record 78 medal events for female athletes at the Rio 2016 Paralympic Games. International Paralympic Committee (IPC) Athletics published a first draft of the medal event programme for Rio, over four years before the competition and with London 2012 still three months away. Rio 2016 will have a total of 176 athletics medal events, six more than London 2012, with this summer's Paralympics holding 67 medal events for female athletes. IPC Athletics has been consulting and discussing the proposals with every National Paralympic Committee around the world. ... NPCs can now respond by the end of July with feedback on the draft programme. A final draft is set to be made public on October 15, with further feedback opportunities after that. The final proposal will be put to the IPC after the Athletics Sport Forum in November, with the governing body approving the programme prior to its publication on New Years' Eve. The full list of marathon events will not be known though until early 2015 in order for IPC Athletics to increase the number of marathon events so that more impairment groups can be included. It was also announced that the 2015 World Championship medal events will be based on the Rio 2016 programme, with next year's Worlds in Lyon, France following the format of last year's event in Christchurch, New Zealand. http://www.insidewor...nts-at-rio-2016 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
