P17 2 Layout 1 SUNDAY, AUGUST 7, 2016 SPORTS BASKETBALL SWIMming Will truce in swimsuit wars carry on past Rio Olympics? RIO DE JANEIRO: There’s one question swimmers won’t hear this month around the Olympic Aquatics Stadium in Rio de Janeiro: What are you wearing? Olympic coaches and swimmers would prefer it remain that way, never wanting to go back to the swim- suit wars that culminated with a ludicrous display of speed at the 2009 world championships. Yet, the big-money swimsuit companies - so crucial to the sport’s financial viability - are always pressing to show off their high-tech chops, which are severely crimped by rules that restrict the size and fabrics for competition swimsuits. Some are wondering just how long the status quo will remain in place after the Rio Games end on Aug. 21. “I do believe there will be something that’s coming,” American swimmer Elizabeth Beisel said. “Whether it’s in the next five years, 10 years, who knows? But it’ll get back to where it was, for sure.” That prospect is anathema to those who remember RIO DE JANEIRO: France’s guard Marine Johannes (3rd R) battles Turkey’s defence during a Women’s round Group A basketball match between Turkey and France at the Youth what happened seven years ago in Rome, when a decade Arena in Rio de Janeiro yesterday during the Rio 2016 Olympic Games. — AFP of radical changes in swimsuit design led to the introduc- tion of rubberized bodysuits. Forty-three world records were set at a meet that was more farce than competition, leading governing body FINA to hastily impose new swimsuit rules that mandated only textile fabrics, banned Spain leads record 34 NBA zippers and restricted the amount of coverage from the waist to the top of the knees for men - so-called “jam- mers” - and to the upper body and upper legs for women. While the swimsuit companies still tout the quality of players out to topple USA their suits and push the limits as far as they can within the rules, it’s clear they would like a little more leeway. “It defi- nitely unleashes a little more creativity and innovation if RIO DE JANEIRO: Spaniards settled for Spain while former NBAer Rudy Fernandez find out how we’re going to play without the rules are relaxed a bit,” said Todd Mitchell, who helped second best to US NBA stars at the past and current Laker Jose Calderon and Gasol him,” said Mirotic. “Defensively we need to Olympic Scores/ Results develop Michael Phelps’ signature swimsuit line for Aqua two Olympics, but Pau Gasol and his team- play in their fourth Olympics. step up, especially because Marc is not Sphere. mates hope their third upset attempt is Other Spanish NBA talent includes here.” Mirotic is confident Spain has what it FIELD HOCKEY-Men Kate Wilton, the senior director of merchandising and charmed.

  • Governance of Sustainable Event-Led Regeneration: the Case of London 2012 Olympics
    GOVERNANCE OF SUSTAINABLE EVENT-LED REGENERATION: THE CASE OF LONDON 2012 OLYMPICS A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Hayriye Özlem Edizel School of Engineering and Design Brunel University April 2014 ABSTRACT This study aims to understand the interface between the governance of event-led regeneration and sustainable development by taking the London 2012 Olympic Games/Lower Lee Valley area regeneration process as a case study. Since the early 1990s, there is a widespread trend towards the use of mega-events to promote a city, stimulate the local economy and regenerate rundown post-industrial areas and communities. The importance of mega-events in destination development has gained increasing attention and they are also considered as a catalyst for city regeneration. The emphasis in the aims of event-led regeneration has changed over the time and the sustainability in terms of economic, physical, social and governance dimensions has gained significant attention from both organisers and researchers. In the context of sustainable event-led regeneration, multiple stakeholder perspectives are essential and it is important to know how different actors are involved and interact in an event-led regeneration. London used 2012 Olympics to regenerate East London, one of the most deprived parts of the city. It is taken as an opportunity to explore new frontiers of interaction and cooperation between the local, regional and national stakeholders. This research adopts an integrative approach, which evaluates the changes in the built environment, social structure and stakeholder organisation together to evaluate the sustainability of the event-led regeneration governance. Data collection methods include interviews with stakeholders of London 2012 planning and organization, focus group meetings with residents living in and around the fringe of the London 2012 Olympic Park, secondary data analysis and document analysis.
