RINA Classes First Offshore LNG FSRU
Genoa-based classification society RINA has taken a lead in the developing market for floating LNG terminals. It has been chosen to class the first offshore Floating Storage and Regasification Unit (FSRU), and is providing studies and support for a number of further offshore LNG projects, including the newbuilding which is likely to be the world's second offshore LNG FSRU. Addressing the Mare Forum Houston conference, Massimo Volta, RINA's General Manager America, said, "Italy leads the world in implementing offshore LNG terminals. We have recently brought the Adriatic LNG terminal on stream, and we have five more live projects for floating and gravity-based offshore LNG terminals around our coasts. RINA is involved with all these in a number of ways, and our expertise is now being sought by other countries developing offshore LNG projects. We are very proud to have been chosen as the first classification society in the world to class a true offshore floating LNG FSRU, for the OLT Offshore LNG Toscana project." The OLT development will see the 138,000 cu m Moss-type Golar Frost converted into a 3.75 billion cubic metres (bcm) per year FSRU, moored in 120 m of water off Italy's west coast port of Livorno. It will act as a receiving terminal for importing LNG, regasifying the LNG and pumping it into Italy's gas grid.

4 Biotech Stocks Under $10 Soaring Higher
Sinovac Biotech
Sinovac Biotech (SVA - Get Report) is an integrated China-based biopharmaceutical company that focuses on the research, development, manufacturing and commercialization of vaccines that protect against infectious diseases. This stock is trading up 9.4% at $2.72 in recent trading.
Today's Range: $2.55-$2.82
52-Week Range: $1.64-$2.88 Volume: 225,000 Three-Month Average Volume: 61,992 >>8 Stocks Ripping Higher on Big Volume From a technical perspective, SVA is gapping up sharply here with above-average volume, and it's starting to break out above some near-term overhead resistance levels at $2.64 to $2.75. Traders should now watch for the next major breakout trade to trigger for SVA. That trade will hit once SVA manages to clear some past overhead resistance at $2.88 with high volume. You can look for long-biased trades in SVA as long as it's trending above today's low of $2.56, and then once it sustains a move or close above $2.88 with volume that's near or above 61,992 shares. If that breakout triggers soon, then SVA will setup to re-test or possibly take out its next major overhead resistance at $3.33.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

RIVERDALE, Md. - Prince George's Co. Firefighter/Medics treated an unusual patient on Friday, July 9.
A person calling 9-1-1 reported a pit bull attack in the 5700 block of 66th Ave. The victim's leg was bleeding uncontrollably. Animal Control officers and Prince George's Co. Police were dispatched.
Police arrived first and found a 3-year-old Cocker Spaniel named Peluche suffering from bite wounds to his paws. Animal Control were not close, so the police officer requested assistance from the firefighter/medics.
Fire Lieutenant Beardmore and Fire Fighter/Medics Yarish, Miller and Francis arrived and applied basic first aid measures to control the bleeding and dress the wounds.
Peluche's owner tells Prince George's County Fire the dog needed surgery for his wounds, but he's doing fine.
In a press release, Prince George's County Fire and EMS spokesman Mark Brady says, "Providing first-aid to an injured animal is not common, yet, is another service Prince George's County Firefighters and Paramedics are placed in a position to provide on an as-needed basis. Personnel understand the importance of pets to families and are grateful to assist when and where possible while keeping safety of themselves and others as a priority."
In an ironic twist, one of the first responders, Janice Francis worked for three years as a veterinary technician before becoming a paramedic.
"I used some of my experience and training," she said.
One rescuer said working with Peluche wasn't much different that working on people. "Except that the patient couldn't talk to you at all, working on a dog was a lot like working on people." said Firefighter/Paramedic Bradley Miller.

ExcerptChapter 1
Mike Mays life was near perfect when, on February 11, 1999, he made his way to the dais in the ballroom of San Franciscos St. Francis Hotel. The forty-six-year-old businessman had been invited to present the prestigious Kay Gallagher Award for mentoring the blind, an award hed won himself the previous year. Dozens in the audience knew his history: blinded at age three by a freak accident; three-time Paralympics gold medalist and current world record holder in downhill speed skiing; entrepreneur on the verge of bringing a portable global positioning system (GPS) to the blind; coinventor of the worlds first laser turntable; mud hut dweller in Ghana; husband to a beautiful blond wife (in attendance and dressed in a tight black top, short black skirt, and black high heels); loving father; former CIA man. People watched the way May moved. He walked with a quiet dignity, effortlessly negotiating the obstacle course of banquet tables and chairs, smiling at those he passed, shaking hands along the way. There was more than mobility in his step; his gait seemed free of regret, his body language devoid of longing. Most of the people in this room worked with the blind every day, so they knew what it looked like for a person to yearn for vision. May looked like he was exactly who he wanted to be. He was accustomed to public speaking, and his messages were always inspiring. But every so often a member of the audience would turn on him, and it usually came at the same part of his talk, the part when he said, "Life with vision is great. But life without vision is great, too." At that point someone would stand and jab his finger and say, "Thats impossible!" or "Youre not dealing with your inner demons," or "Youre in denial." The objections came from both the blind and the sighted. May was always polite, always let the person finish his thought. Then, in the warm but definite way in which hed spoken since childhood, he would say, "I dont mean to speak for anyone else. But for me, life is great." That, however, would not be the message for this evening. Instead, the tall and handsome May spoke glowingly about the award winner, about how much it had meant to him to win the Gallagher, and about the importance of mentoring. He seasoned his talk with jokes, some tried and true, others off the cuff, all to good effect. Then he presented the honoree with a plaque and a check and returned to his seat. When he sat down, his wife, Jennifer, told him, "You made me cry. You look beautiful in that suit. And that was a lovely talk." May and Jennifer stayed at the hotel that night. Ordinarily, they would have awoken and made the seventy-five-mile drive to their home in Davis, California, each needing to return to work. But Jennifers contact lenses had been bothering her, so she had scheduled an appointment with a San Francisco optometristnot her regular eye doctor, but a college friends husband who had been willing to see her on short notice. Though May was itching to get back to his home office, he agreed to accompany Jennifer to the appointment. The morning was glorious as the couple strolled San Francisco and enjoyed that rarest of pleasures, an unhurried weekday breakfast at a streetside café. The optometrists office was nearby, so May and Jennifer, along with Mays Seeing Eye dog, a golden retriever named Josh, walked up Post Street to make it to the morning appointment. Jennifer assured him that the visit would take no more than thirty minutes. May had never accompanied his wife to an eye appointment and was pleasantly surprised to learn that they would be out so quickly. The waiting room grabbed Jennifers attention straightaway. An interior designer, she lived in a world of color and flow, and she began describing it to May: the direction the chairs faced, the narrowing of the hallway that led to the exam rooms, the taupe of the wall behind the receptionist"whose cheekbones are stunning, by the way." It intrigued May that he had married a woman whose universe was so dominated by the visual, and it delighted him that she felt so passionate about sharing it all with him, even about the beautiful women. A few minutes later Mike Carson, the optometrist, greeted May and Jennifer and led them to an office. Carson examined Jennifer, recorded some measurements, and told her he would write her a new contact lens prescription. May was glad that things had gone so quicklythis would allow him to get home in time to pick up their sons from school. Carson finished making his notes and flipped on the light. He looked at May for a few seconds, made another note in Jennifers file, then looked back at May. He asked how long it had been since May had seen an eye doctor. "At least ten years," May replied. "How about if I take a look?" Carson asked. "Thats a long time to go without seeing a doctor." "You want to examine me?" May asked. "Just for a second," said Carson. "Lets just make sure everything is healthy in there as long as youre here." May thought about it for a moment, then said, "Sure, why not?" May and Jennifer switched places so that May now was in the examining chair, the one with the chin holder and instrument that looks like the pay-per-view binoculars on top of the Empire State Building. "I think youre going to find that Im blind," May joked. The doctor leaned in and immediately saw that May had a blue-colored prosthetic left eye. His right eye, his natural eye, was nearly opaque and all white, evidence of dense corneal scarring. No pupil or color could be seen at all. Some blind people wear dark glasses to conceal such an eye, but May had never felt the need to do so. His eyelid drooped a bit, leaving his eye mostly closed, so no one reacted badly to it. Carson stepped away and sat on a stool. "Mike," he said, "I wonder if youd mind if my partner, Dr. Dan Goodman, takes a look at you. Hes an ophthalmologist, one of the best in the country. I think hed be interested." May glanced toward Jennifer with just the slightest quizzical look. Jennifer was already wearing the same expression. "I guess it cant hurt," May said. Carson left the room. For a moment neither May nor Jennifer said anything. Then each said to the other, "Thats interesting." A moment later Carson returned with his partner. Dr. Goodman, age forty-two, introduced himself and asked May how hed lost his vision. "It was a chemical explosion when I was three," May replied. "Do you have an ophthalmologist?" Goodman asked. "He died about ten years ago. Hed been my doctor since the accident," said May. "What did he tell you about your vision?" Goodman asked. "He tried three or four corneal transplants when I was a kid," May said. "They all failed. After that, he told me that I would never see, Id be blind forever. He was supposed to be a great ophthalmologist. I knew he was right." "Who was he?" Goodman asked. "Dr. Max Fine," May replied. Goodmans eyes lit up. "Dr. Fine was a legend," Goodman said. "He was my teacher. I sought him out when I was young and asked to do surgery with him on Wednesday nights. He was one of the great ophthalmologists in the world." May and Goodman spent a minute reminiscing about Dr. Fine. Then Goodman asked, "Mind if I take a look?" "Not at all," May replied. Goodman dimmed the lights, stepped forward, and, using the thumb and forefinger on one hand, opened the lid of Mays right eye. The stillness of the touch startled May. Goodmans hand stayed absolutely motionless, absent the vaguest hint of tremor. May had felt that kind of touch only once before, from Dr. Fine, who had held his eye open in just the same way. Goodman peered into Mays eye. He saw the massive corneal scarring that trademarks a chemical explosion. He shone a penlight into Mays eye, which May could barely detect (most blind people have some vague light perception). But when Goodman waved his hand in front of the eye May could not perceive the movement. Goodman conducted a few more tests, then looked through the same biomicroscope Carson had used. It took only moments for him to see that May was totally blind. The exam lasted perhaps five minutes. Goodman turned on the lights and pulled up his stool. "Mike," Goodman said. "I think we can make you see." The words barely registered with May. "There is a very new and very rare stem cell transplant procedure," Goodman continued. "Its indicated for very few types of cases. But a chemical burn like yours is one of them." Jennifer leaned forward. She wasnt sure whether to look at Goodman or her husband. What was Goodman saying? "Despite your horrible corneal disease, it looks like theres good potential for vision in your eye, and that it can benefit from a stem cell transplant," Goodman said. "Ive done maybe six of these procedures. Most ophthalmologists in the world havent done any. Its not something anyone specializes in. And I dont know of anyone who has done one on a patient who has been blind for as long as youve been. But it could work." All May could think to say was "Thats interesting." "If youre interested you need to come back for something called a B- scan," Goodman explained. "Thats an ultrasound designed to look into the back of the eye to make sure theres no gross pathology or abnormality. But if the B-scan is clean, theres a good chance this could work." Goodmans words sounded surreal to May. His body and brain agreed simultaneously that it was impossible, that once Goodman ran the tests he would see what Dr. Fine had seena patient beyond repair. Still, the newness of the science intrigued Mayhed never before heard the term "stem cell" used in connection with visionand he fashioned this thought: "Im in the technology business, and technology changes all the time. Why cant vision technology change, too?" "Is it complicated?" May asked. "The stem cell transplant is complicated," Goodman said. "By itself it provides no visual benefit. But it sets the stage for a cornea transplant three or four months later. If all goes right, the two surgeries add up to vision." May appreciated that Goodman spoke clinically and directly, and without trying to inspire him. To Jennifer, something seemed amiss. Vision had always been impossible for May, not because science hadnt caught up to him but because something fundamental was missing or unfixable. Jennifer watched May for his reaction. There was no hallelujah. There were no cries of "Oh, my God!" Rather, May pursed his lips slightly and gazed up and to the right a bit, the way he always looked when he was considering the theoretical rather than the wonderful. "Id like to think about it, if thats okay," May said. "Of course," Goodman said. "Take your time. Call my office if youd like to go ahead with the B-scan. It was very nice to meet you." Goodman shook hands with May and Jennifer. And with that he was out of the room. The encounter had lasted less than ten minutes. After the appointment May and Jennifer were walking back to their red Dodge Caravan, which was still parked near the St. Francis Hotel. The weather was bright and brisk, and reminded Jennifer of the couples newlywed days living in San Francisco, when they walked miles for just the right Chinese takeout and talked about their future on the way. "Do you and Wyndham have soccer practice tonight?" Jennifer asked, unlocking the Caravans doors. "Not tonight," May said. "Good thing, too. Im already behind on a bunch of business calls. Its amazingjust one day and the whole world seems to rush out from under your feet." Josh climbed in and sat on the floor of the passenger side, between Mays feet. Jennifer found her sunglasses, started the ignition, and pulled out onto Post Street. With good traffic they would be in Davis in an hour and a half. May opened his cell phone and began to return business calls, simultaneously making certain that Jennifer didnt miss the turnoff to Route 80. Though May could not see, he possessed a collection of uncannily accurate mental mapsit was that kind of skill, and others, that caused many to consider him a kind of super– blind man. Once across the Bay Bridge, the couple relaxed a bit. For a few miles neither said anything. Then Jennifer looked over at May and remarked, "Well, that was fascinating." "It sure was," May said. "It doesnt sound real, does it?" Jennifer hesitated for a moment. She hadnt had time to begin to sort out the implications of Goodmans offer, but she knew this much: something big had happened, and whatever it meant it was certain to be an intensely personal issue for her husband. For that reason she wanted to say nothing, to simply let him process it for himself. But she also needed to hear him talk. "So, hypothetically," Jennifer finally said, "and we dont know if this would even work, but just for fun, what would it be like? What might you like to see?" In twelve years of marriage they had never discussed what it might be like for May to see, not even in the playful way in which they allocated imaginary lottery winnings. Since early childhood, May himself had not thought about what it might be like to see, a fact that struck many who met him as inconceivable. The concept of vision simply was not part of his existence. Just the sound of Jennifers question felt otherworldly to him. "Well, Dr. Fine made it very clear that I would never see in my lifetime, so its probably not possible," May said. "But just for fun . . ." Jennifer kept her eyes on the road. "I think Id like to see panoramas, especially at Kirkwood," May said, referring to the familys favorite ski resort. "And Id like to see beautiful women." "That makes sense," Jennifer said. "Youre always thinking about those things anyway." "Panoramas and women are two things I love but cant go around touching. They cant really be adequately described to me. Those are two things you really have to touch with your eyes in order to fully appreciate." "Where might you go to see these beautiful womenother than your own home, of course?" she asked. "Saint-Tropez. Straight to the topless beaches." "I need a tan," Jennifer said. "Mind if I go with you?" "If you dont mind me gawking." "Youve been gawking since I met you. What else?" May thought further. He told Jennifer he might like to see the Eiffel Tower or the Statue of Liberty or the Galápagos Islands, all places to which hed already traveled. Definitely the Golden Gate Bridge. What Our Readers Are SayingBe the first to add a comment for a chance to win!Product Details

5 1 word - AmazingMinimad123 | 10/02/2012 | See all Minimad123's reviews (12)I have been playing this game for a week now. I took the day off work when it was released to go get it and make a good head start on it. I didn't go to sleep till 3am that day I was so hooked.Everything from Mog, to the cinematic action makes this game unique and definatly one of square enix's better games. You can tell they've really thought about this one.The only thing i would suggest to people if you buy this - buy the stratergy guide too - i dont wanna give too much away but the time travel thing can get a little confusing without a map of it.
5 Awesome game, awesome story, awesome combo.Hatsukoi | 17/03/2012 | See all Hatsukoi's reviews (4)I will be quick with this...I loved the game, but I think that the graphics could be better for Febr 2012, I mean, they're good... but could be better something.The story is simply awesome, and I loved the "time-traveling" idea, it's great, since the world changes in every time.Serah receives a new "focus", I mean, a new objective for her (it has nothing to do with Fal'Cie, this is just an expression)... Find Lightning. It crushed my heart when she said that for 3years she tried to believe that Lightning was "dead". Well, never mind, the Combat System is much better, giving the player for each roll a passive ability, like in Sentinel you receive a buff of "x"% defense, this is really good before the boss/mob performs a powerful attack/spell.The new Crystarium system is much simpler, it's kinda hard to understand, but don't worry it's fine.I don't know what more to say more...Overall: I recommend this game for FF's series fans, and for those that never played this RPG series. :)10/10 rating.

DURHAM -- Friends and colleagues are expressing shock and sadness over Whitby-Oshawa MP and former federal finance minister Jim Flaherty's death.
Mr. Flaherty, 64, died Thursday afternoon shortly after paramedics were called to his Ottawa home. Reports indicate he suffered a heart attack.
"We have lost a great man who was a true leader and great Canadian," said Whitby Mayor Pat Perkins.
"My deepest condolences go out to Jim's family. He gave so much to our country and the world. We will be forever grateful." Oshawa Mayor John Henry said he was shocked to hear the news and said his heart went out to Mr. Flaherty's wife, Whitby-Oshawa MPP Christine Elliott, and their triplet sons, John, Galen, and Quinn.
"I knew him prior to his political career in business and knew him as an MPP and an MP," said the mayor. "We worked together on issues, butted heads on issues, but it was just issues. It's a sad day for his family and a sad day for Canada."
Mayor Henry said he believes the Abilities Centre in Whitby will stand as a lasting tribute to a man who accomplished many things. "He worked hard for the benefit of his residents and his country and I'm proud of the work he's done," he said.
Ajax Mayor Steve Parish expressed his shock over the news of Mr. Flaherty's death and reflected on his long career.
"He served this area in the Ontario legislature and he had a very outstanding career. Our condolences go to his family and loved ones.
Just three weeks ago, Mr. Flaherty announced he was resigning from the federal cabinet and returning to the private sector. It was a decision he made with his family earlier this year, according to a statement issued March 18.
"I am grateful to Prime Minister Stephen Harper for providing me with the opportunity and responsibility to serve Canadians as their minister of finance since 2006, one of the longest serving finance ministers in Canadian history," he said.
Steven Cooke, Ontario PC Party vice-president, knew Mr. Flaherty well and said he was in shock over the news.
"He was a fantastic, fantastic man. I learned a lot from that man -- a lot of principles, a lot of paying attention to details," said Mr. Cooke.
Mr. Cooke's first job in politics was as a summer intern in Mr. Flaherty's office in 1998. He went on to work for Mr. Flaherty from 2001 to 2003.
"I got to know Christine. I knew the boys from a very young age. I got to know them fairly well. My heart goes out to them," said Mr. Cooke.
Mr. Cooke said he was excited to go to work every day, including driving Mr. Flaherty around the province during his party leadership run.
"He was a very funny man, a very dry wit sense of humor. He was definitely one of the smartest people I've ever worked for," said Mr. Cooke.
"He really cared about what he was doing ... he really did care about making the province and the country a better place. He's a very genuine man."
Oshawa MP Colin Carrie sent out a statement expressing his sadness and thanking Mr. Flaherty for his dedication to the communities of Whitby and Oshawa.
"I am honoured to have had the opportunity to work so closely with Jim over the years. I ask everyone in Oshawa, Durham Region and across Canada to keep Jim's family in their prayers during this difficult time."
Don Lovisa, president of Durham College said he is deeply saddened and also expressed his sympathies for Mr. Flaherty's family. "It's shocking. It's so, so sad that he had just stepped down after so long serving Canada and now has passed away."
Mr. Flaherty had been battling a rare skin condition, but reassured the public his decision to resign as finance minister was not health-related.
Longtime friend John Dolstra said he had lunch with Mr. Flaherty a few weeks prior to his resignation and knew then something was wrong.
"He said it was time to look after him," said Mr. Dolstra. "I've known Jim for 25 years so when he said that, I knew exactly what he was doing."
First elected to the House of Commons when the Tories took power in 2006, Mr. Flaherty was re-elected in 2008 and 2011. He was appointed Canada's minister of finance in 2006 and also served as minister responsible for the Greater Toronto Area.
Nancy Shaw worked with Mr. Flaherty for 18 years, starting in 1995 when he was an MPP and most recently as his executive assistant until this past January.
She says watching the news footage on Thursday brought back a flood of memories of a man she deeply respected.
"He was a very smart man ... the lawyer in him made him a good politician," Ms. Shaw says. "He worked very hard, very long hours. I did his schedule so I know the kind of hours he worked."
Ms. Shaw says Mr. Flaherty was a very proud Canadian who always wore a flag on his lapel and was also proud of his local community.
"Whenever he would come to the riding, he always said, 'It's good to be home,'" she recalls.
Ms. Elliott sent out a statement asking for privacy for her family.
"We appreciate that he was so well supported in his public life by Canadians from coast to coast to coast and by his international colleagues," the statement said.

Fargo's largest hospital has opened up seven new emergency rooms and another local hospital is planning to expand its emergency services.
Sanford Health officials say a $1.7 million expansion and renovation project has doubled the capacity the emergency center was designed to handle.
Officials say the addition has resulted in a more efficient suite of 27 emergency rooms to better handle almost 60,000 patient visits a year.
Sanford's emergency center is one of the busiest in the tri-state region, and sees almost twice as many patients as Sanford's hospital in Sioux Falls, S.D.
Officials at Essentia Health in Fargo says its 19-room emergency department also is experiencing an increase in visits, and there are plans to increase the capacity to as many as 35 rooms.

MARLIN LEVISON * email@example.com Assign. #20009264A August 21, 2009] GENERAL INFORMATION: ELCA membership meeting in convention at the Minneapolis Convention Center voted to allow same sex leadership in their churches pastoral positions. IN THIS PHOTO: Update photo of former Minnesota Governor Al Quie. ORG XMIT: MIN2013091918503085
A former Republican governor of Minnesota weighed in Friday on the GOP's four-way race to challenge Mark Dayton in November.
Al Quie was a state senator and U.S. representative who was elected governor in 1978, when he defeated DFL incumbent Rudy Perpich. He said Marty Seifert, a former House minority leader from Marshall, has the best shot at unseating Dayton.
"Just as I defeated a DFL incumbent to become governor, Marty Seifert has the ability to bring people together and win in November," Quie said, according to the Seifert campaign.
Seifert is running in the GOP primary for governor. His principal opponents in the Aug. 12 vote are businessman Scott Honour, Hennepin County Commissioner Jeff Johnson, who won the GOP endorsement, and former House Speaker Kurt Zellers.
Quie is the first former Republican governor to weigh in on the race. Tim Pawlenty, who served from 2003 to 2011, is now leading a Washington-based advocacy group for banks and has stepped back from electoral politics. Arne Carlson, who led the state from 1991 to 1999, is no longer active in GOP politics and has endorsed DFL and Independence Party candidates.
Quie, of southeastern Minnesota's Rice County, is the last GOP governor not from the Twin Cities. Seifert is the only candidate of the four from outside the Twin Cities. He has tried to use that distinction to build a deep base of support among rural Minnesota GOP activists.

Prominent sociologist Dorothy Smith outlines a method of inquiry that uses everyday experience as a lens to examine social relations and social institutions. Concerned with articulating an inclusive sociology that goes beyond looking at a particular group of people from the detached viewpoint of the researcher, this is a method of inquiry for people, incorporating the expert's research and language into everyday experience to examine social relations and institutions. The book begins by examining the foundations of institutional ethnography in women's movements, differentiating it from other related sociologies; the second part offers an ontology of the social; and the third illustrates this ontology through an array of institutional ethnography examples. This will be a foundational text for classes in sociology, ethnography, and women's studies.

Respond to Review of Anand Sweets
by Kevster
Review: Friendly service here at Anands. A great variety of indian sweets, however, i favour the savoury snacks. The samosas when just prepared are magnificent. There are also pakoras to pick up, and a few other things, including a 'pie like' delicacy. Very very nice with the mint sauce. They also have curries on the menu, but i am yet to try these.

NASHVILLE Entering their Western Conference Quarterfinal series with Detroit a team that they had not beaten in two previous postseason meetings the Nashville Predators were confident, but not cocky.
That confidence helped them to prevail, winning the series in five short games punctuated by Friday's 2-1 win at Bridgestone Arena in Game 5.
The brevity of the series might have surprised some observers, coming as it did against an opponent that set an NHL record during the season for consecutive home victories with 23. Undeterred, the Preds beat Detroit both times in its own building despite never having won at Joe Louis Arena in six previous tries.
Predators coach Barry Trotz said his team had "tons of confidence" despite allowing Detroit to tie the game at 1-1 late in the second period. David Legwand scored 13 seconds into the third period for the game-winner.
In the end, the little brother that entered the NHL in 1998 finally surpassed the big brother who is part of hockey's...

The Olympics: Not So Much
I'm pretty ambivalent about the Olympics. I watched the opening ceremonies so that I could hear the announcer say "ceremony" the British way, and because I love a good national spectacle. I was thrilled to hear Branagh recite Shakespeare, I am always teary when I hear the opening strains of "Jerusalem," and I admired the man-made Tor that acted as centerpiece to Danny Boyle's history of Great Britain.
He lost me somewhere around the Industrial Revolution hand jive, and I was kind of skeeved out by the childrens' nightmare sequence with "Tubular Bells" and a gigantic baby; taken as a whole, the idea seemed to be that children were tucked into bed at Great Ormond Street Hospital by smiling, dancing doctors and nurses and then abandoned to nightmarish characters from literature until they were all saved by a fleet of Mary Poppinses. Presumably the Marys speared Voldemort, The Queen of Hearts, Captain Hook, et al with their proper British bumbershoots and eased the minds of all of us who associate "Tubular Bells' with Linda Blair's green and rotating head.
But I digress. My problem with the Olympics has nothing to do with its location (a place, frankly, that I would rather be than where I actually am) and everything to do with sports-related media. If a person is interested in watching Olympic coverage during prime time, which is the only time we watch television in this house, one is necessarily watching network coverage. Network coverage is kind of like "American Idol" with contestants who swim, vault and run. Favorites are cultivated, highlighted and vignetted; we are basically fed everything we need to know about who will probably win, who we should like, and why.
This phenomenon is not unique to Olympic coverage. It's a sports thing. Several years ago when I became a rabid fan of college basketball, I actually watched sports on TV for the first time. They had been on around me my whole life - I grew up in a Big Ten town – but for forty years I was just passing by the TV on my way to find my book. When I began to watch televised college basketball, I noticed that it was hard to pay attention to the game because of those people who talked CONSTANTLY from tipoff to final buzzer. In one memorable game against The University of Texas, the commentators were so smitten with a guy named Kevin Durant that our team could have shot forty consecutive three-pointers and they would have continued to talk about the life and times of "Kevin Durant, KEVIN DURANT, KEVIN DURANT!!!!!!"
Apparently this kind of thing is par for the course as color commentary, but I know that the thrill of going to a game and watching with my own eyes, making my own judgments, and having my own hopes about the outcome is infinitely preferable to having Dick Vitale tell me that my team is outmatched and totally doomed halfway through the first half.
It wasn't always this way, either. At least the Olympics weren't. I remember falling in love with Dwight Stones the summer I was ten. I picked him out by myself (because I was ten and he was cute) and watched coverage of Track and Field events during the 1972 Summer Olympics with religious fervor so that I could see if Dwight had an event that day, and find out how he did.
I may be remembering it wrong, but it seems that there was never a touching vignette about Dwight's personal life set to gooey pop music, and although he was a strong favorite based on his record, other competitors were not completely eclipsed in the commentary. We knew Dwight was good, we thought he'd probably win, but we could watch him run and jump without the benefit of someone telling us that he was running, jumping, favored, running well, jumping high, liked to kick back with a bag of Cheetos and drink root beer in his hometown of Los Angeles, jumping over the bar and landing, and...you get the idea.
I guess that's part of my issue with the current setup: every single athlete at the Olympics has a story, they all sacrificed, and they can all do things physically and emotionally that most of us can't imagine. What effect does it have, psychologically, not to be a "favorite?" How does it feel to be on a team with someone who is charismatic, or has a great story, when you are just someone who has worked your ass off to make the Olympic team? Why should the girls on the Gymnastics team be interviewed about how excited they were to meet Michael Phelps? He is, after all, no better an athlete than any one of them. They are all American kids on American Olympic teams. He's just a much more famous athlete than any of them because he was successful, he's handsome, and he has an interesting backstory.
If I were a hardcore sports fan I would find a channel that streamed Olympic events as they happened, with minimal commentary. I'm not, and I won't, although I think the Canadians do a pretty great job at that kind of thing. If I could tune in to NBC at 7:00 or 8:00 and just watch footage of the day's main events, just be swept up and hold my breath to see if that one, cute boy I picked out was the fastest, I'd be in. As it is, I'll probably watch reruns of "Cold Case" or read my book.
Good luck to every single athlete competing – upset the odds, flabbergast the spinmeisters, and win because you worked hard and you deserve it.

I take these items and assemble surfaces, gluing, screwing, and attaching things together. Next, I paint over the whole lot with images and words that take a funny look at modern life. The 'norm' of modern living is my main target victim. The result is a humorous textured brightly colored eye catching contraption/painting."
