You enclosed a list of all the events in the next five years which you say Events for London could bid for. However, it remains unclear which of the events are realistic for London – I would think it unlikely that London would be a front-runner for the All Africa Games or the South Pacific Games, for example. You may also be interested to know that a number of the events in your list have already been awarded – the 2015 Summer Universiade is being held in Gwangju, South Korea, the 2011 Men's Handball Championship is taking place in Sweden and the 2015 Pan American Games will be in Toronto. I think a more detailed response would be appropriate, setting out which events London is actually likely to submit a bid for. Additionally, I would be grateful if you could let me know when the five-year strategy you mention will be completed and send me a copy as soon as it is. Please could you respond to me, copying in the Committee Co-ordinator (details below). Yours sincerely, John Biggs AM Chairman of the Budget and Performance Committee Contact: John Barry, Committee Co-ordinator 020 7983 4425 [email protected] .

Korean Architecture Вінницький Національний Технічний Університет Анотація Як Утворилася Південна Корея
УДК 725 (519) Жук С. П. Korean architecture Вінницький національний технічний університет Анотація Як утворилася Південна Корея. Яка була її архітектура. Яка архітектура і на сьогоднішній день цінується в Південній Кореї. Усе це буде розглянуто у статті нижче Ключові слова: Корея, Південна Корея, Корея у роки війни, пост модерн у Кореї. Abstract How South Korea was formed. What was her architecture. What architecture is today valued in South Korea. All this will be considered in the article below Key words: Korea, South Korea, Korea during the war, modern Korea. Korean architecture refers to the built environment of Korea from c. 30,000 BC to the present.From a technical point of view, buildings are structured vertically and horizontally. A construction usually rises from a stone subfoundation to a curved roof covered with tiles, held by a console structure and supported on posts; walls are made of earth (adobe) or are sometimes totally composed of movable wooden doors. Architecture is built according to the k'a unit, the distance between two posts (about 3.7 meters), and is designed so that there is always a transitional space between the "inside" and the "outside." The console, or bracket structure, is a specific architectonic element that has been designed in various ways through time. If the simple bracket system was already in use under the Goguryeo kingdom (37 BC – 668 AD)—in palaces in Pyongyang, for instance—a curved version, with brackets placed only on the column heads of the building, was elaborated during the early Goryeo (Koryo) dynasty (918–1392). The Amita Hall of the Buseok temple in Yeongju is a good example.

Anti-Doping Textbook
ANTI-DOPING TEXTBOOK REVISED IN SEPTEMBER 2016 forewords Since the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) was established in 1999 we have col- laborated with the Sport Movement and Governments worldwide to promote and coordinate the global harmonised campaign against doping in sport. One of WADA’s roles is to oversee the World Anti-Doping Code. The Code is the set of rules that binds governments and sports to ensure a global approach to the fight against doping. The Code provides the basic framework for WADA’s work: “To protect the Athletes’ fundamental right to participate in doping-free sport and thus promote health, fairness and equality for Athletes worldwide.” Education is a strategic priority for WADA to prevent doping in sport in the long term, enabled through values-based education programmes. Research has shown that the influence of an athlete’s entourage can have a very significant effect on the athlete’s attitude towards doping and subsequent behaviour. It is envisaged that this textbook will help future practitioners and professionals to guide athletes to make the right decisions when it comes to doping and be familiar with all doping related facts and issues. WADA is delighted to be collaborating on this project with our colleagues in the Gwangju Universiade Organising Committee and the International University Sports Federation (FISU). They have shown tremendous initiative in the fight against doping by including this project as part of the Gwangju Legacy Programme. “I encourage all university students who use this resource to be leaders in protecting clean sport by educating your peers, students and athletes through your professional care.” JOHN FAHEY AC WADA President (November 2007-November 2013) 2 FOREWORDS The International University Sports Federation (FISU), which is responsible for the organisation and governance of worldwide competitions for student-athletes between the ages of 17 and 28, is committed to safe and fair sport competition among university student athletes throughout the world.
