We Ask Americans About the 2018 Winter Olympics The World Will be Watching, But What Are They Thinking? We Ask Americans About the 2018 Winter Olympics. Throughout the years, the Olympic Games have become as much a spectacle for its pageantry as a show of global peace and sportsmanship. The 2018 Winter Olympics start February 8th in South Korea, and our recent Ipsos Omnibus survey found out what Americans think about this world wide event. The last time the United States hosted the Winter Olympics was 16 years ago in Salt Lake City. Regardless of where it’s held, the Winter Olympics provide excitement and enter- tainment for the 70% of Americans who plan on watching the 2018 games. When asked in December, about half (52%) of Americans knew the 2018 Winter Olympics would be taking place in South Korea, while a third (34%) didn’t have any idea where they were being held. In fact, we found out more Americans (63%) were aware Russia had been banned from participating in this year’s Olympics than knew where the games were being held. The 2018 Winter Olympics will be held in PyeongChang, which is a popular ski destination located 700 meters (2,296 feet) above sea level. This elevation, said to be the optimal altitude for well-being, inspires the city’s slogan, “Happy 7 0 0 .” Between the estimated $5,000 it would take to attend the Olympics in PyeongChang for a week, and the current military tensions, it’s safe to assume most Americans will probably get cozy and watch the events and ceremonies on television. 1 Copyright© 2018 Ipsos.

  • Sustainability and Clean Energy at the Pyeongchang 2018 Winter Olympics
    Sustainability and Clean Energy at the PyeongChang 2018 Winter Olympics February 12, 2018 Since 2006, the International Olympics Committee (IOC) has focused on implementing clean and sustainable energy practices while creating an infrastructure for the Olympics. In July 2015, the PyeongChang Organising Committee for the 2018 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games (POCOG) released their 2018 Sustainability Framework to share their vision on a clean and sustainable Winter Olympic games. This was followed by a Sustainability Interim Report released in February of 2017 to detail the progress since the initial Sustainability Framework. In December 2017, POCOG released another report: the Sustainability Pre-Games Report. This report details POCOG's efforts and achievements that have been made towards the sustainability of the PyeongChang 2018 Winter Games as laid out in their initial 2015 Sustainability Framework report. POCOG hopes to go beyond their "zero emissions" goal using greenhouse gas reduction strategies focused in five areas: establishing green transport infrastructure, self-sufficient renewable energy, sustainable construction, minimization of carbon emissions, and green procurement. The following article is a summary of the efforts and achievements that POCOG has made as laid out in the Sustainability Interim Report and Sustainability Pre-Games Report. It is estimated that as many as 1,753,000 domestic and international travelers will visit the Venue Cities from every region in Korea. Thus, POCOG has deemed it necessary to focus on developing environmentally friendly transportation strategies, including managing greenhouse gas emissions from vehicles. POCOG hopes to address this first area of focus through the construction of express railroads that will connect venues and associated facilities in the region, and the establishment of transfer centers and IT-based green transportation systems including train stations and terminals.

  • Sports, Instagram, and Conflict Talk in Englishes

The disqualification of highly anticipated medalists in Michigan, USA. Email: [email protected] short track speed skating events elicited heated online arguments between Korean and Chinese sports fans. A content analysis of antagonistic texts featuring anti-Korea and anti-China posts reveals that ‘othering’ practices are predominantly performed by: (1) mak- ing reference to seemingly irrelevant details; (2) evoking stereotyp- ical images of a race and/or a nation; and (3) utilizing overtly offen- sive language or transgressive language. Drawing upon linguistic strategies of encoding ‘us’ vs. ‘them’ dichotomies reported in earlier research, this study shows that explicit disparagement, disapprov- ing representation of the other, stereotyping, and overgeneralization are readily utilized by both parties, who also occasionally engage in verbal reconciliation through lexical and syntactic mirroring. 1 INTRODUCTION Sports are a significant part of recreation and popular culture and have become important social activities for many who enjoy them as players and spectators. Sports are not just physical activities. Linguistic expressions used in sports have influenced our everyday vocabulary. However, linguistics has not paid much attention to sports with the excep- tion of a few studies (Caldwell, Walsh, Vine, & Jureidini, 2017; Dreyfus & Jones, 2010; Ferguson, 1983; Lavric, Pisek, Skinner, & Stadler, 2008).

The challenge facing a biathlete is being able to shoot accurately after an enduring ski workout. The U.S. continues to improve in biathlon but this sport belongs to the European countries like Sweden, Norway, France, Germany and Finland.

  • 2018 WINTER OLYMPICS in Pyeongchang on NBC Special Sports NTI and Social Edition 9 March 2018
    2018 WINTER OLYMPICS in PyeongChang on NBC Special Sports NTI and Social Edition 9 March 2018 From the lighting of the torch at the Opening Ceremony through the rituals of the Closing, the games from PyeongChang, South Korea averaged a 9.9/18 HH NTI in primetime, falling short of 2014 Sochi (12.1/20), 2010 Vancouver (13.8/23), 2006 Torino (12.2/19), 2002 Salt Lake City (19.2/31) and 1998 Nagano (16.3/26). PyeongChang also managed to turn in the lowest ratings since 1998 (the furthest back we tracked the Winter Olympics for this piece) in A18-34 (2.7/14), A18-49 (4.1/16) and A25-54 (5.3/17). Thanks in part to the home front advantage, it was Salt Lake City in 2002 which was the most viewed across the board of the past six Winter Olympics. If we go back even further, though with not as much data, it was 1994's Lillehammer which boasted the highest shares (30 and 40 shares and even up to 60 shares) in HH’s, hitting a high 48.5/64 on one of the nights versus all Olympic games back to 1984's Sarajevo. While Lillehammer produced a true-crime drama played out over the Olympics with the Nancy Kerrigan/Tonya Harding controversy, PyeongChang only had its "scandal-lite" moments -- Shaun White's harassment allegations, Lindsey Vonn's and Adam Rippon's political issues with the current administration in Washington, the Russians doping and subsequent Olympic ban and North and South Korea putting their massive differences aside to march together in the opening ceremony.
