Nike Spec Ad : Pain Is The Reward Part I
Welcome to my Spec Ad series where I make random ads that I believe should be put out. I'm not a professional by any means but a dreamer that loves good commercials. Call me crazy but a commercial should invoke emotion inside us. Make us into action.
The commercial that made me fall in love with ads was the 2008 Nike “ Find Your Greatness” ad campaign during the Beijing Olympics.
The crux of the campaign was to showcase the great things people can accomplish both athletic feats and everyday acts of kindness, bravery, and compassion. That greatness wasn’t just inside these athletes we look up too but it was in all of us.
I hope you enjoy these as much as I enjoy writing them.
To start this sieges off I thought why not start with a brand that everyone knows and loves Nike.
Location(s): Upper Middle-Class Home
Writer: Ameron Yitref
Title: Pain Is The Reward ( The Runner )
Run Time: ~ 30 sec
OVERVIEW:
I think the worst feeling about working out is having the desire to start. You think 5 steps ahead on how you’ll feel. You’re tired, don’t feel good, or imagine it’s gonna be horrible so you kind of avoid it. But after finishing the workout you feel good. Well, that's how I feel about it. After I work out and I’m sore, I actually enjoy it. I enjoy the feeling. It motivates me to chase the soreness. Then it got me thinking: Is this what champions chase? That gratification that they did it?
I did sports like a lot of kids growing up and a lot of us obviously want to be champions. We all want to be the best. Not everyone can be the best. So it made me think more about what separates champions from the rest of us mortals. They don't do it for vanity or many are just talented and just think I guess why not. A champion wants it bad. They sacrifice everything and anything to get it. Friends, Family, and time to relax.their bodies. Pain doesn't stop them. They don't run away from it, they run toward it. So it inspired me to write a few Nike spec ads.
INT. BEDROOM - EARLY MORNING
A young adult in their mid-twenties to early forties lays in bed half-awake, restless and contemplating if they should get up. We see a close-up of the clock next to the bed, showing the time - 5:00 AM. The young adult sits up and rubs their eyes.
NARRATOR (VO): Your body is aching, everything hurts. You have work in a few hours. You’ve had a good week so far. Three days straight isn’t something to scoff about. Is one day gonna make a difference?
[Five to ten-second pause]
CUT TO:
INT. BEDROOM - CONTINUOUS
A montage of the young adult grabbing clothes, tying their shoes, and getting in last-minute stretches.
NARRATOR (V.O): It will. You're not wired to take a day off. You’re not programmed like other people. Your week isn’t over yet. That aching you feel is the prize. It’s the feeling you look forward to. The feeling you chase after.
CUT TO:
EXT. HOUSE - CONTINUOUS
The young adult steps out of their front door and into the crisp morning air, wearing Nike gear.
NARRATOR (V.O): It's not about winning that pretty first-place ribbon or the accolades, but the pain.
The runner framed up by the door frame shuts it and begins to run through the streets, pushing themselves through the discomfort.
NARRATOR (V.O): Pain is the reward.
[Closing title card: Just Do It or the Nike Check]
The scene ends with the young adult running through the streets, with a sense of purpose and determination. The camera fades to black with the Nike logo and the tagline "Pain is the reward" displayed prominently.
NARRATOR (V.O.): Just do it.

Catch Up
No silly! Not the red stuff!
So much has been happening and so fast especially in recent days, I've not been able to keep up with my blog the way I really want. I've been mostly re-blogging the great stuff ya'll are posting or re-blogging! I just want ya'll to know I follow a bunch of ya'll and like what ya'll do! (That's a LOT of ya'll! Yeee hahhh!)
Anyway, what really bums me is that I missed International Cat Day August 8!! I did make a re-blog/post when I saw a funny cat meme by @thegingerpowers and it reminded me of ICD! (btw,@thegingerpowers is a wonderful and funny blogger who is also an author as well. I encourage ya'll to check out her blog and her books!)
And I have a post-Olympic let-down! The Tokyo Olympics closed! It was such a great time! So many great athletes coming together to do their best in friendly competition! World records set! First-time medalists! Huge surprise incidents and personal challenges! I am proud my country (USA) led the way in gold medals, (yes, go ahead and call me a Nationalist!) but I am also happy for all the individuals that competed and especially those that also won medals! Thumbs up to Australia and Brazil for their successes! Cchina seemed to me to come out of nowhere to take the 2nd slot, one gold medal behind the USA. It's interesting that Beijing is hosting the Winter Olympics! (Omg! Only d6 months away! Very mixed feelings about that and I may boycott it even though I enjoyed their hosting of the Summer Olympics in 2008). I am happy to see the home country, Japan, place in the top 3! Hats of and cheerios (not the cereal, but hey that too!) to my UK fans and Team Britain! So happy to see you edged out the ROC in gold if not in overall medals! Although I applaud ROC's individual athletes, I have to say I think the ROC was still Russia competing although Russia was supposed to be banned. A political parlor trick to get around the ban in my humble and jaded opinion! I think it would have been much better (and more honest) to have the Russian athletes adopted by other countries and added to their teams. Just sayin'! So happy to watch the video/virtual/live handoff of the Summer Olympics from Tokyo to France! it was a medal winner in itself! I hope it gets uploaded to youtube! It's worth watching again! (Bonjour Paris, France Félicitations pour les Jeux Olympiques d'été en 2024!) Yes, 2024, not 2025!
Okay, my long Olympics rant deserves its only posting so I will edit this later and make a solely Olympics post.
Next items:
I started a series of "buried bondage" images, but stopped and decided to do re-blogs since so many wonderful, sexy, and funny posts came up in my feed! I hope to continue that but I have way too many browsers open now (I HAVE to start using two computers!) and may lose the ones I have chosen so far and not posted. Look for more buried bondage soon!
I think I also want to post about my test driving a car this weekend.
Another idea (and several open browsers later) was about making an homage to Akira Lane and Asiana Starr! I adore these two sexy women although (I'm embarrassed to say) I often confuse the two of them when I see them on here! I've admired Akira and her pantyhose bondage site for a long time, but recently, (embarrassed again) I've had SUCH a girl crush and lady boner for Asiana! *blushshshshingSorry Asiana, I understand you're straight, and so am I, but wow! You and your predicaments are so fricking fantastic! You can drool on me anytime!!
*sighs* I wasn't going put any images here. It was supposed to be all text! Oh, well! Onward!
I've been thinking about creating other blogs on my account for my other likes, loves and passions, including Elvis and Doctor Who. (I still have a pinterest account and a blog on that 'OTHER' site that starts with a "b" and ends with an "r" dot com. I can't type the link or my Tumblr account gets deactivated.
A recent chat with a couple of other of my friends / tumblr followers has given me inspiration for other posts as well, including documenting my history of Dominants/"Masters".
More to cum! (except when I am edging only!) 💋💋😺

January 20, 2021: Taken (2008)
Well, I know one thing about this movie. He’s gonna find ‘em. And he’s gonna kill ‘em. And also, Luc Besson didn’t direct this movie! Yeah, my bad, he wrote this movie. But, then, he also wrote Leon, so I wasn’t entirely wrong. Anyway, 2008!
I remember this year well. Obama was elected the first Black president of the United States of America; the Olympics took place in Beijing, months after a massive earthquake in Sichuan; the Large Hadron Collider was totally gonna make a black hole; and, of course, the most important news event of that year: Iron Man and The Dark Knight came out.
And of course, the film Taken came out, creating what is arguably the most repeated film meme ever. Or, at the very least, it’s WAY up there. It’s a 12-year old meme at this point, but lemme tell ya: this thing was HUGE in 2008. Not the movie itself, just the meme. And I could lie and tell you that I’m watching this movie because it’s another French action thriller, and it’s fitting, but…
...it’s the meme. It’s 100% the meme, I’m not gonna lie to you guys. So, uh...yeah, Taken, let’s do this. SPOILERS AHEAD!
Recap
Bryan Mills (Liam Neeson) is dreaming of his daughter and wife. In the modern day, he brings a birthday gift to his daughter, Kim (Maggie Grace), and his bitter ex-wife Lenore (Famke Janssen), who is married to a very wealthy man, Stuart (Xander Berkeley). Bryan, meanwhile, is a recent and comparatively poor retiree, whose friends come over for a night of drinks.
Retiree from what, you ask? Well, it’s likely the CIA, given that his friends refer to military missions and Langley. They invite him to join security detail for a pop star, Sheerah (Holly Valance), In the process, he saves her from crazed fans, including a knife-wielding assailant. Not sure why that guy wants to LITERALLY STAB HER, but somebody needs to look into that guy!
Out of gratitude, Sheerah gives Bryan some references to give to his daughter, who wants to be a singer, apparently. However, when he sees her and Lenore the next day, all she wants from him is permission to go on a trip to Paris with her friends. When he shows his doubts for her safety, she’s upset, and his wife berates him for...government and military service? I mean, that stuff breaks up marriages, of course, but GODDAMN, Lenore’s bitter about it! Whoof.
Bryan’s definitely being made to be sympathetic, while Lenore’s the opposite of that. And Bryan’s understandably worried about his daughter’s safety, as she’ll be abroad. And we get the idea that Bryan’s a bit of a helicopter parent, but...c’mon! He’s underage daughter is asking to go to Paris with her friends! It’s cause for a parent to be worried, and yet Lenore is like, “She needs to be freeeeeeeeeee!” And that’s made even WORSE by the fact that both of them lie to Bryan, a father who clearly loves his daughter, because she’s actually following U2 on a music tour around Europe!
Which...really? U2? Who the hell can stand that much Bono, for their ENTIRE EUROPEAN TOUR? Anyway, what I’m saying is, Lenore sucks, and I’m not Kim’s biggest fan either. But I get the feeling that, given the one thing I know about this movie...Bryan’s gonna be proven right. So Kim and her friend, Amanda (Katie Cassidy) go to Europe, alone, despite Bryan’s understandable misgivings.
They IMMEDIATELY get hit on by Peter, a French boy who gives them a ride. He invites them to a party, Amanda accepts for them, and this is OBVIOUSLY A BAD IDEA. That’s even further confirmed by Peter making a mysterious call, telling the other person about the girls’ location. Kim doesn’t call Bryan, as promised, and Amanda is clearly a TERRIBLE influence. Looks like Bryan was completely right to be concerned, if his daughter’s gonna be so irresponsible. Oh, also because they’re about to get kidnapped.
Luckily, Kim had called Bryan just before, after realizing that he had called her, and he guides her through the upcoming kidnapping. With his help, although she gets kidnapped, Bryan is able to figure out that the kidnappers are Albanian, and that one of them is a six-foot tall bearded man with a moon and star tattoo on his right hand DAMN THAT’S OBSERVANT. But still...she’s been Taken.
Someone picks up the phone...and he says the speech.
youtube
Had to do it, folks. It’s the most iconic scene in the film. Time for action! Bryan calls a friend with Langley connections, then goes straight to Lenore and Stuart’s place, who find out that BRYAN WAS FUCKING RIGHT GODDAMMIT HOW DO YOU FEEL NOW
Having COMPLETELY FUCKED UP, Lenore asks Bryan to get her back safely. They actually figure out that the men who kidnapped her are professional sex-traffickers, who specialize in kidnapping travelling women and putting them in prostitution. But they tend to disappear...within 96 Hours. That’s how long Bryan has to find her, as well as being an alternate title for this film!
The time limit, by the way, is a common construct for the action-thriller. You know, “she has 12 hours to live,” that kind of deal. Thrillers are going to be peppered throughout this year, and there are a few coming up as well, so might as well start with this one, right?
Bryan flies to Paris, then makes his way to the apartment, tracing Kim’s steps up to her kidnapping. He also finds her destroyed phone, alongside an SD card with photos. From this, he gets a blurry look at Peter. I get the feeling that his face isn’t about to look much better. Speaking of, Peter’s playing his old tricks at the airport, and is caught by Bryan. Painfully caught. After Bryan fights off another guy, and chases Peter up a road, Peter also gets caught by karma.
80 hours left. Having exhausted options, Bryan meets an old contact, Jean-Claude (Olivier Rabourdin), who tells him where the Albanians hang out. He hires an Albanian translator, then heads for a prostitute-heavy area. He harrangues a prostitute until her manager comes out, whom he puts a small microphone on. With the translator’s help, he discovers that they’re having “merchandise problems” at a construction site.
Following a hunch, he makes his way there, and sees several drug-addicted young women in a makeshift brothel. Also there is his daughter’s jacket. The prostitute that has it, however, is not exactly cognitively sound at the moment. So...she’s Taken. By Bryan, who fights his way out of the brothel and construction site, with gunshots, explosions, and car chases along the way.
Bryan brings the girl back to a hotel, where he somehow gets ahold of an IV and medicine, and detoxes her in the room. Which, given the time frame and other factors...seems like a very large risk to take for testimony that, let’s be honest, right not exist. Still, as this is happening, he gets a call from Jean-Claude, asking to meet.
56 hours left. After 7 people dead, a destroyed trailer, and 3 people injured (and probably stolen medicine from a hospital, let’s be honest), Bryan isn’t exactly the best friend of the French government. He escapes police custody and heads back to the hotel, where the girl is cogent enough to remember where she got the jacket: from Kim herself, at the house with the red door on the road of paradise. No, really.
Bryan gets to the house, and poses as Jean-Claude...badly. He apparently passes his bluff check, and takes advantage of a corrupt police system, and makes them give him protection money. Over the course of the conversation, he figures out that one of them is Marco. Which means that he found him. And he said that when he found him…
After that spree is done, he searches the facility and looks for Kim. He doesn’t find her...but he does find Amanda. And sadly, he’s too late for her. Turns out, though, that he didn’t kill Marko (Arben Bajraktaraj), the leader of the group. And of course not! He has some questions.
Bryan tortures Marko using electricity, and he reveals that Kim’s been sold quickly, as she is a virgin. She’s been sold to Patrice Saint-Clair (Gerard Watkins), although Marko doesn’t know where he is. And so, Bryan fulfills his promise, and electrocutes him. He then makes his way to meet Jean-Claude at his home. And, uh...that’s when he crosses a line.
...Um. Bryan shot his wife. And yeah, Jean-Claude’s clearly not on the up-and-up, but he’s not directly complicit in the kidnapping of his daughter. And yeah, he’s in Bryan’s way, but JESUS CHRIST DUDE. He officially loses the moral high-ground here for me, even if his cause is just. Jean-Claude concedes, and Bryan gets the information that he’s looking for and leaves, knocking Jean-Claude out in the process.
Bryan goes to the Saint-Clair residence, where an auction is taking place for various young women. The last of these is, of course, Kim. Having barged into a booth of one of the buyers, he forces him to buy Kim (ew). Unfortunately, he’s caught and chained to a pipe, where Saint-Clair’s henchmen are about to kill him. But, of course...
Bryan escapes and kills Saint-Clair in the process, but not before finding out that Kim’s been Taken to a boat. He obtains a car, and after a length (and seizure-inducing) car chase, gets onto the boat, which is owned by the Sheik, a man of unknown Arabic origin. And yeah, in case you were wondering, this feels very...VERY...wrong. It’s brief, yeah, but...you gave a rich Arabic guy multiple wives obtained through illegal means and made them the main villain? FUCKIN’ OOF BRUV
Anyway, as expected, Bryan kicks the asses of everybody on the boat, and finally rescues Kim, killing the Sheik in the process. The two have a tearful embrace, and Bryan NEVER LETS HER OUT OF HIS SIGHT AGAIN PROBABLY. THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT BONO. THIS IS ALL YOUR GODDAMN FAULT.
Well, Bryan wins the I WAS RIGHT ALL ALONG GODDAMIT award, Kim gets to go home and meet that singer from before, Lenore gives Bryan some consideration as a human being for once, Stuart stepfathers, and that’s Taken! Also, WHERE IN THE HELL ARE AMANDA’S PARENTS, A GIRL IS DEAD
Epilogue soon!

Uber for Swimmers
A Sports Blog
During the 2008 Beijing Olympics, men’s 4 x 100m freestyle relay, the Americans dominated the Olympic-sized swimming pool measured approximately 50 meters in length, 25 meters in width, and 6 feet in depth, which features ten lanes measuring 2.5 m wide (Hoefs, 2020). The close competition of the teams had the audience sitting at the edges of their seats thrilled to find out who would garner the gold medal for this event. This competition particularly was very important for the American swimmer, Michael Phelps, as he will be making history of being the most successful athlete, winning eight gold medals and setting a new record for most golds won in a single edition of the Olympics (EuroSport, 2020).
But before we applaud Phelps for his victory, let us dig in first in the video and analyze how the Americans managed to win that gold. As the swimmers placed themselves on the diving block waiting attentively for the go signal marked by the officiating officials. This is a very stressful moment for every swimmer during a competition, because if you accidentally mishear the go signal and dive in first, you will be disqualified, and all your hard work and countless hours of practice would go to waste. Extra pressure is given to the first swimmers at that moment as one mistake will result to the disqualification of all the members of the team before they even got to swim a lap. Once it was go time, Phelps was leading during the underwater swim, immediately, Amaury Leveaux of France was the first to make a strong breakout swim giving the team an advantage. We can also see that as each swimmer approaches the wall, they attack, flip turn, and push off in a blink of an eye. While each swimmer flip turns, the Inspector of Turn lean in a little bit in order to ensure swimmers comply with the relevant rules after the start, for each turn, and at the finish. Alain Bernard was taking the lead for the last 100 meters of the event. However, the biggest plot twist occurred for team France as Jason Lezak chased him down at the very near end of the event and managed to touch the wall first garnering another gold for the Americans.
But how did he do it? As we can notice in the video, for the past three swimmers, the Americans were always behind and other teams were taking the lead. Once Lezak started his swim, he was very close to Leveaux but he didn’t manage to catch up to him until they approached the final five meters of the pool, which is the most crucial part of every competition. Well, the secret behind it is the ‘Uber for Swimmers’ tactic in which you use the speed of the swimmer beside you against him. This is best done at high speeds, cozy up to the lane line and hitch a ride, saving that energy and nitro for the last burst into the wall (Poirier-Leroy, 2017). Jason Lezak did this perfectly and showed us the most insane swim of his life.
This tactic helped Phelps break the past record of Mark Spitz in 1972. He reigned and made history, bringing home 8 medals. Another tactic that was used was the breathing patterns in which I noticed that they usually took three strokes before turning their heads to catch a breath. The importance of having breathing patterns is for the swimmers to create a rhythm when they swim on competitions, this gives them one less thing to worry about during the event. Breathing too many times during a short-distance swim like that will truly give you a disadvantage as this creates too much drag. During these events, the details are very important, you should do whatever can to save even the slightest millisecond, that is why some swimmers will shave their body, wear headcaps, and their suits as hair also creates a little bit of drag.
Summary:
Court Dimensions- 50 meters in length, 25 meters in width, and 6 feet in depth, which features ten lanes measuring 2.5 m wide
Equipment- Headcap, Goggles, and Swimsuit
Basic Skills- Breathing, kicking, strokes, and arm movement
Technical and Tactical Skills- Breathing patterns, Flip turn, Push Off, Diving, and Uber for Swimmers
Rules
• Swim in Freestyle ONLY!
• Wait for the previous swimmer to touch the wall before you dive in.
• Go when the starter signals (in this case, the beep)
• You must leave the water before the next swimmer finishes their leg of the race.
Officiate
• The Inspector of Turns carefully checked the turns of each swimmer in their assigned lane as they approached the wall.
• The Timekeepers start his watch at the starting signal, and shall stop it as soon as the swimmer in his lane has touched the wall.
• The Starter marked the go signal for the competition to start.

Vanessa Ferrari interview - Rai TV
Here’s the link to the video (probably geolocked) where Vanessa talks about her whole career (there’s some super cute clips of her as a child), her successes, her setbacks, her injuries, and her goals. Translation below the cut (it’s very long)!
CANNIBAL OR BUTTERFLY
Vanessa: As soon as I started doing gymnastics, I knew right away that it would become my life. In gymnastics I’ve been given two nicknames: Cannibal and Butterfly.
Yuri Chechi (former gymnast): She leaves nothing for anyone. She wants to “eat” everything and everyone. But she also has this elegance, lightness, and naturalness. She’s a cannibal in the gym, as much as she’s a butterfly in life.
V: Gymnastics is my whole life, I’ve started that I was very young and I can’t go without it, even though sometimes I hate it. My name is Vanessa Ferrari, I’m 26, and I’m a gymnast.
CHILDHOOD
Vanessa’s dad: As a child, Vanessa was very shy and introverted. She tended to have a grumpy personality and this made it difficult for her to make friends with the other girls because being so shy left her a bit isolated.
V: I was a very lively child, I loved jumping, but i was also pretty shy, I was very quiet for example at school. When I was 7 I saw a gymnast on beam on TV, I don’t remember who or what competition it was, I just know that I asked my mom to take me to the gym.
V’s dad: Vanessa’s mom, who’s Bulgarian, took her to the gym. She knew about gymnastics from her country and wanted Vanessa to compete at high levels.
Enrico Casella: I remember this tiny kid coming into the gym with such a small face. We tested her and I chose her immediately. I thought “we better take this kid”
“See now that you’re old you suffer less!”
V: At the end of that first “training”, Enrico called me and he had me lie on the beam and he pulled on my back. It hurt so much I wanted to cry but I kept it together and then when I went back to the changing room I started crying in my mom’s arms. My mom told me “if you don’t want to go anymore, we can just go home and that’s it” but I replied that I wanted to keep going. Because of gymnastics, ever since elementary school I attended evening classes. I trained 4 hours in the morning, 2 hours in the afternoon.
V’s dad: Her family supported her completely, especially at first, since we lived about 60-70 km away from where she trained, so with her mom she had a constant collaborative relationship.
V: My mom was the one who brought me every day to the gym. She’d drive 50 km to the gym then she’d go home, come back to pick me up in the evening and bring me home. She was the one doing the tough job! My dad helped me psychologically. Whenever I had a problem, he was always telling me to face it with a calm mindset and to do what I wanted and what made me feel good.
V’s dad: I feel like her fear was mostly that of making a mistake. Maybe the fear of not being able to do her best for herself and her family.
V: When I was a child and I went to sleep, I obviously dreamed of Worlds, Olympics, victories. But when I looked at older girls doing bars and difficult tumbles I thought “I’ll never be able to do that”.
V’s dad: That was clearly not true, because we could see that she was able of turning all her fears into drive and determination.
V: You try to do your best and then…YOU HOPE!
WORLD CHAMPION AT AARHUS 2006
V’s dad: On that day at Worlds, emotions were sky-high, even on my part, also because in that period in order to feel more confident, Vanessa would look at me before every event. She was looking for a sign, an incitation from me to give her courage and strength.
V: In Aarhus, on qualification day I had had a perfect competition and I had qualified into second, behind American gymnast Memmel. I said to myself that if I competed that well again I could challenge for gold. I felt good because it was going to be relatively simple. But nothing is ever simple, a World Championship is always a World Championship.
Yuri Chechi: I remember the moment when she fell off beam and she was really annoyed at herself because she thought that fall would have taken her out of contention for gold, while it had looked possible just a moment before.
V: On beam, I couldn’t afford to fall but I fell. I panicked a bit.
V’s dad: After falling off beam, she came close to me and I could see that she was scared she wouldn’t make it. She asked me and I was like “no, don’t worry, you can still do it”.
V: I looked at the scores and Enrico was like “you can still do it, but you have to give it all you got on floor”. I tried to stick all the landings but during my third pass I didn’t feel perfectly aligned so instead of doing a punch full I only did a punch front layout, but luckily it didn’t compromise anything so I ended my exercise just like that!
Casella: A month before Worlds, I said our aim was to win medals in the AA. They thought I was crazy, but that time it actually went well.
V: I immediately hugged Enrico, then I saw my dad and I ran to him and he said “we did it”.
V’s dad: I told her “I always knew you’d make it” the rest is something we’ll always just keep between the two of us.
Yuri Chechi: Luckily, the kind of reaction Vanessa had after her mistake, was enough for her to win and it’s something I recall with great joy, because seeing an Italian win such an important competition is extremely gratifying for me, since I know exactly what it means.
UNWANTED POPULARITY
V: I’m a shy person. And after winning Worlds I got a lot of popularity all at once.
Yuri Chechi: After an important victory, a lot changes for an athlete, because expectations change.
V: Before, no one was looking for me and then out of nowhere I had everyone around. I hung in there for a while, then I couldn’t take it any longer cause I was just too overwhelmed, and from one moment to the next I couldn’t stand journalists anymore.
V: “I hope that interviews….” Journalist: “…you mean you hope you’ll always get tons of interviews because it means you’re going great?” V: “No….that’s not really what I meant but ok…”
V: Then I had to train morning and afternoon, then school…
Yuri Chechi: You know that you have to compete with the goal of winning again, to confirm your victory. So you feel a lot of responsibility. It’s a different kind of responsibility, but it’s also very good to have.
BEIJING 2008, HEALTH AND FAMILY PROBLEMS
V: Beijing was my first Olympic Game. I was in disastrous physical conditions and the first issues with my Achilles tendon had started. I was held together by tape, I trained for 3 days then had to take 5 days off, it was extremely difficult. I’m happy I competed at those Olympics, that’s why I tattooed Beijing as well in my Olympic tattoo, but it’s a bad memory for me. Everyone had huge expectations from me and no one knew how much my tendon hurt.
Yuri Chechi: Clearly, Vanessa’s physical condition and preparation wasn’t great. I remember her face, her eyes. She wasn’t ready. She wasn’t in the ideal condition to achieve an important result like that of winning or making an Olympic final.
V: In addition to that, to try and perform better and better, the whole team even fell into eating issues. We had to weigh ourselves every day and every day we were told to put down some weight. A lot of us had started eating and throwing up or not eating at all. That was a terrible experience for me and I couldn’t wait to go back home.
V’s dad: Between 2008 and 2009, the family went through a crisis. My wife and I got divorced and Vanessa suffered the consequences of this even in her gymnastics. She even thought about quitting. With the separation going on at home, she started sleeping at the gym. Then we talked about it and, with difficulty, she managed to react and overcome this situation.
V: After this moment of crisis, the Federation told me not to train anymore in order to get my tendon fixed and they sent me to Milan to get it treated. After 3 months where I couldn’t train, only get the tendon treated, the tendon had not got any better and everyone started saying I was over. We decided to get surgery on my right tendon. When I woke up from the anesthesia, I started doing sit-ups right away. The doctor was like “stop, what are you doing?!” and I was like “when can I start doing gymnastics?”. And then little by little I started training again.
LONDON 2012
V: I got to London and I was physically ok, preparation with Enrico had gone great. I made FX EF, and I felt good and it went well. Because of a rule that says that if you tie with another gymnast, the one with the lower SV goes ahead, that’s what happened with the other gymnast, so she got bronze and I got fourth. At that point I started crying.
Yuri Chechi: Sadly she didn’t make it. It wasn’t really her fault, it’s a law, no matter how right or wrong, it’s a law, a rule that didn’t award her a medal. This doesn’t take anything away from the value of Vanessa’s exercise. But it’s clear, medaling or not medaling makes all the difference. And that day Vanessa didn’t get a bronze that she definitely deserved.
V: On top of it all, I even had to go through a doping check and because I couldn’t pee, I had to wait from 5 pm to 3 am. I just really couldn’t pee!
Casella: After London, I had taken a week off for vacation, the first in years, and I was at Lake Garda camping with my family. 3 days later, I saw her arriving at the camping and she started talking and while talking she was already planning her future.
V’s dad: At that point we told ourselves “Vanessa…let’s try again next time”.
RIO 2016
V: In Rio, I was doing mesotherapy every 2 days just so that I could tumble.
Simone (V’s boyfriend): She kept saying “I want that medal, I’m trying to add something more” but it’s really that something more that took everything away from her.
V: I had to perform to perfection on floor and during those days I had devised something extra that I could add. But all this trying to do a bit more ended up in me doing a bit less.
Casella: She made a mistake. At the end of her last pass she took a step back. So it’s easier for an athlete to accept this because you made a mistake and someone else did better than you did.
Yuri Chechi: She performed a wonderful routine, only her double pike at the end wasn’t clean. There’s nothing anyone can say. This is the sport, this is life. But I’m personally very sad because an athlete like Vanessa would deserve an award like an Olympic medal. Euros and Worlds are important, but an Olympic medal is different, and in Rio I honestly thought she could do it.
Simone: We waited for Vanessa outside of the arena and we couldn’t look demoralized or sad. You could read it off of everyone’s face, but we had to stand by her and give her strength because she was already overwhelmed.
ROAD TO THE FUTURE
V: After Rio I did nothing for 6 months. I treated the tendon but even afterwards I only went to the gym to coach the little girls, I personally did no training at all. By coaching the girls in the gym, slowly I started wanting to train again.
Yuri Chechi: The fact that Vanessa wants to start over in view of Tokyo 2020, means that she still has a lot of motivation.
V: I told myself “I’m going to try”. And now I’m trying.
Yuri Chechi: If Vanessa still has the motivation she has always had, I think she’ll have no problem rising again a third or even a fourth time, and even challenge for a medal. I have no doubts whatsoever. I think she still has a chance.
V’s dad: Vany, I know that if you’re healthy you’ll start strong and compete strong, don’t worry.
V: The problem is staying healthy.
V’s dad: That’s not a problem, you have to take care of yourself and you’ll be healthy. I know you always give it everything you got and I’m always there watching you and I get very carried away because I know you have it in you. I know you always try to do your best and I always do my best cheering for you. Shall we get ready? We never really managed to get perfectly ready. Maybe this is the right time.
V: The best part of gymnastics is that even though it’s built on sacrifices and a lot of disappointments as well, it’s a bit like a drug because you can’t go without it. I want to be at the Tokyo Olympics. After Tokyo, no matter how it goes, whether I’ll manage to go or not, I don’t know whether I’ll keep coaching or whether there will be something else for me. I’ll just have to see in the future.

Check, Please! Archery AU
Okay so it was an idea of @beepboopbits and @zimmsbits had that just spiraled out of control. I would say I’m sorry, but... I’m really not.
Collegiate archery is kinda funky-- for example, there’s no one governing body but several-- and so i haven’t really gotten into many of the details regarding tournaments yet. This is loosely based off of my experiences with my university’s club/team structure, so these guys make up the competitive team and their ‘fans’ would probably be the club.
I have a problem and I may be continuing in this ‘verse. Without further ado:
Jack is the son of Canadian Olympian Bad Bob Zimmermann. Attempting to follow in his father’s footsteps, he started shooting recurve at the age of three, and competitively before his sixth birthday. He missed tryouts for the 2008 Games in Beijing because of an equipment failure; his riser (the handle part of the bow) snapped because of a machining error. Returning to the archery scene in early 2009 at the Vegas International Shoot, Jack found himself the victim of target panic in the shootoff. He put his bow down and disappeared for two years, only to reemerge by starting a collegiate archery program at Samwell University.
Bitty is still a former figure skater, but after an injury at the Southern Junior Regionals, he had to hang up his skates and find a different sport. His experiences as a counselor at a summer camp introduced him to archery—which, he was proud to inform his mother, had less injuries per participant than golf. (IT’S TRUE!). He too started off with recurve; initially barebow, and then Olympic recurve like Jack once he found a range nearby. He’s terrified of hitting his arm with the string, so Jack has to work with him on getting his front arm alignment right so that he actually hits the spot on the target he wants to. He’s good with the rest of the mental aspects of archery though. He did not compete before coming to Samwell. Honestly, the biggest adjustment for Bitty is probably the fact that he’s not allowed to have his phone with him on or ahead of the shooting line at tournaments—so, roughly half the time that he’s there!
“Shitty” earned his nickname by his vulgar language after every time he gets a bad shot. At least that’s the story. Shitty is a loudmouthed gregarious compound, the type who somehow manages to befriend and piss off everyone on his bale at once. He picked up archery at Andover and loved that it was an individual sport; he didn’t have to actually compete as a team with any of his schoolmates. He may be able to afford the best equipment, but the equipment doesn’t make the archer. He and Jack are still best friends, mostly for his ability to bring Jack out of his own head at practice or a tournament. He’d probably make a better coach than an archer, but everyone still values his presence anyways.
He still hates the LAX team.
Lardo is a Student Rec employee who was originally put in charge of taking care of the bales and setting up the safety net before Samwell practices. Jack and Shitty (mostly Shitty, let’s be honest here) eventually coaxed her to take her first shots. Her presence on the team is treasured because she has no real preference of barebow over recurve or vice versa, though she hates compound; that makes her invaluable for shooting Mixed Teams at outdoor tournaments (must be m/f teams that shoot the same discipline). Jack initially likes her just for that, but they find that they share the same things that they do in canon. She claims that a slightly more flexible schedule from being in art classes means she’s more capable of handling the logistics of everything, but in reality she’s just better at life than everyone else.
Ransom always brings his homework to tournaments and does it in between rounds, which can psyche out his competitors. It’s necessary, though. He used to shoot recurve as a child, but the rise of available compound bows combined with the intensity of his schedule drove him to make the switch, because he’d heard that compound required less practice (it’s true; training wheels are a thing). He usually finds an out-of-the-way corner at whatever tournament venue they’re at and sets up shop. Only Holster is allowed to talk to him once scoring starts. At practices he’s a lot more laid back. He still parties and he still knows everyone on campus, which has been instrumental in growing the archery club and also getting them finances.
Holster had a couple vague memories of shooting an uncle’s—or was it a grandpa’s?—bow at a cabin some distance from his house when he was younger. He’d describe himself as having limited archery experience, but he managed to pick it up pretty quickly once he started shooting regularly again. His size initially made him think about recurve, but once he realized that Rans was shooting compound, he went out and bought the same bow. The two of them usually share a bale during practice.
Chowder shoots barebow recurve. At practice, he’s very happy and a joy to shoot with; it seems like just hitting the target is enough to please him. At tournaments, though, he turns into a quiet, cold, arrow-busting machine. Nobody wants to share a bale with him at outdoor tournaments, because the middle is his, and he will have no qualms about shooting your arrows and possibly breaking them if they’re in the way. (Indoors, you get separate targets). Like Jack, he picked archery up at a young age, but has never been interested in ‘upgrading’ to have sights and a stabilizer. He’s just in it for the fun of it.
Nursey picked up archery at Andover, just like Shitty. However, where Shitty opted for compound, Nursey chose a recurve because he preferred the feel of the bow. Nursey has a tendency to fiddle with his equipment just like he does lines in his poems, which can sometimes cause more harm than good. It’s a universal team rule that he’s no longer allowed within ten feet of the bow press, for fear that it will explode—again. He claims to be the best at the mental side of archery of anyone on the team because he knows how to chill (that title belongs to Chowder). However, when he’s on his game, he’s unquestionably on his game. Because he and Dex shoot the same division, they often end up shooting next to each other at tournaments—they’re a great support group for each other.
Dex started looking for scholarships for Samwell, and then discovered the archery club. He qualified to join the team in his very first semester, because he used to shoot every summer before he was old enough to go out on the fishing boats. He shoots with a recurve because the equipment is generally cheaper and the basics are a lot more customizable. He’s the team’s bow tech; he and Ransom are the only ones who can understand the technicalities of the Easton tuning guide, and Ransom’s generally too busy to mess with things. He and Nursey squabble a lot because the riser he shoots is one that Nursey used to, and Nursey assumes that he knows it better. Despite this, he usually ends up shooting next to Nursey at tournaments. They get along and have a great time.
Parse became Jack’s friend while they were both cruising the international archery circuit as children. He toyed with both compound and recurve, settling on compound once he got his first official sponsorship. He and Jack shot the same line times throughout the entire qualification rounds of the 2009 Vegas International Shoot, and qualified with the same 900/86X score. However, when they reached the shootoff rounds, Jack had his bout of target panic while Parse went on to win it all. Now he’s got a comfortable job out West at a starter bow company while also enjoying the immense payout from Vegas. He gets time off every year from his job to continue competing in the biggest tournaments around the world.
Bad Bob was a Canadian Olympian in ’76 and ’80, winning the men’s individual gold both times. ’76 was particularly important, because it was only the second Games after 1920 that archery was contested, and it was held just outside of his hometown of Montreal. He earned his nickname after he blew two ends on the very first day of qualifiers; one of his competitors started mocking him until he came back stronger than he had before.
I still plan to add the tadpoles and the girls of Check, Please! (bc this team is sadly unbalanced rn) but it shall be a work in progress.
Anyway, tell me what you think!
#check please#my content#archery au#archer au#samwell archery team#i wonder if they get more funding than we do.....

Policymakers need to ignore the tech CEOs patriotic appeals
At the congressional antitrust hearing on Wednesday, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg alerted of the hazard from Chinese web business.
YouTube/House Judiciary.
This story is readily available solely to Organisation Expert customers. End Up Being an Expert and begin checking out now.
In the congressional hearing Wednesday into antitrust issues in the tech industry, the 4 CEOs who affirmed all touted their companies American roots, and Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg cautioned of competition from China.
The attract patriotism and nationalistic beliefs is a familiar technique; the tech business have actually utilized it repeatedly over the last few years as they’ve come under increasing analysis.
However it also has a long history– huge business consistently promote their all-American roots and the hazard of foreign rivals when their market power gets questioned.
Policymakers need to overlook such appeals, due to the fact that they’re indicated to sidetrack from the real harms the business are triggering, and the best method to compete with foreign rivals is through innovation, which monopolies throttle.
Check out Organisation Expert’s homepage for more stories
Patriotism, as Samuel Johnson observed some 245 years ago, is the last haven of the rascal.
Making an appeal to national beliefs– or, relatedly, alerting about the dire hazard from foreign competitors– is likewise a time-worn strategy of corporate leaders who seek to avert analysis of their companies’ behavior or shed what they view as difficult guidelines.
Therefore, on Wednesday, with Big Tech under the extreme glare of a Congressional antitrust investigation, the CEOs fasted to dust off the old playbook.
The success of Facebook, Google, Apple and Amazon– 4 companies with a combined market price of approximately $5 trillion– is the embodiment of the American Dream, their CEOs informed legislators at the Legislature antitrust hearing
The success of these four tech giants is something to be cheered; the outcome of the American system, not any wicked actions or problems in the market’s rules, they firmly insisted.
Apple, CEO Tim Cook stated, is “a distinctively American business whose success is just possible in this nation.”
Amazon’s Jeff Bezos talked about the lessons in self-reliance and resourcefulness that he found out being the son of a high-school aged single mother and the adopted kid of an immigrant dad. And on it went.
Most notably, the CEOs suggested or stated straight, the US needs nationwide champions like their business to lead the internet age, because without them, foreign competitors– most worryingly, Chinese ones– will take over.
” We believe in worths– democracy, competition, addition and totally free expression– that the American economy was built on,” he stated.
If it sounds familiar …
These types of arguments aren’t brand-new.
In truth, these types of arguments long predate the analysis of the tech giants.
China’s nationwide flag is raised during the opening event of the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games at the National Stadium, August 8,2008 The stadium is likewise referred to as the Bird’s Nest.
Jerry Lampe/Reuters.
Financial services companies made comparable arguments in the 1980 s when they looked for the repeal of guidelines that restricted their size and capability to run throughout states lines, arguing that they required to grow big to be able to complete versus giant foreign banks. IBM and AT&T made such appeals when they faced antitrust examination in the 1970 s and 1980 s, arguing that they were needed to help defend the United States from the rising risk of competition from Japanese tech business.
Certainly, such patriotic or nationalist arguments go back as far as the 1910 s, throughout a few of the first efforts in the US at breaking up monopolies, stated Matt Stoller, the author of “Goliath: The 100- Year War In Between Monopoly Power and Democracy.”
” This is a long-standing pattern,” he said. He continued: “It’s always, ‘provide us more power, we’ll safeguard you.'”
Every United States business has an all-American story
The issue with such arguments is they’re banal, unimportant, and deceptive.
Pretty much any US business huge or small has an all-American story to inform.
What’s more, many of the companies that are being quashed by the tech giants have American stories too.
A woman buy deals at a Shoe Pavilion shop that is going out of business in the Financial District in San Francisco.
Thomson Reuters.
There’s little doubt that China and Chinese companies have a different vision for the web than US companies.
” When you concentrate power, you destroy business,” he stated.
” It’s quite obvious that those companies wouldn’t exist” if the Microsoft antitrust case had not happened,” Stoller stated.
So disregard the patriotic appeals and the grim warnings about Chinese competitors from the desperate CEOs.

What’s in the China-Singapore Deepening Military Ties Talk?
A closer glimpse at the importance of lately declared methods by each sides to strengthen protection ties in spite of lingering issues.
On Might 29, Singapore and China officially disclosed that they would move ahead on stepping up protection ties by means of steps that would be formalized by means of a revised bilateral arrangement by the stop of this 12 months. Even though details are nevertheless being worked out by both equally sides, the enhancement nevertheless bolstered ongoing efforts to reinforce relations in the security domain even amid continued distinctions involving them that have manifested in excess of the previous number of decades.
As I have noticed in advance of in these webpages and in other places, the contemporary Singapore-China formal diplomatic connection – which began only in 1990 despite relations that experienced been at enjoy much previously – has also much more not too long ago developed to have a defense ingredient as properly. The variety of engagements, which involve visits, exchanges, port calls, and routines, have been formalized in an arrangement signed by the two sides in 2008 acknowledged as the Agreement on Defense Exchanges and Security Cooperation (ADESC).
Irrespective of challenges in the China-Singapore romance in new several years – as manifested by incidents these as the seizure of Singapore army motor vehicles next an exercise with Taiwan in November 2016 as very well as the concentrate on concerning features of Chinese presence in the state this kind of as influence functions – each sides have continued to check out to advance ties on this front in just boundaries as part of work to stabilize ties. That has continued on in excess of the previous 12 months or so, both in conditions of bilateral interactions as well as wider regional pursuits. To take just 1 case in point, throughout Singapore’s holding of the yearly ASEAN chairmanship very last yr, it served usher in the keeping of the initial-ever ASEAN-China maritime training, which has held in October. Singapore also participated in the 2019 Southeast-Asia China Maritime Work out that was held together with the People’s Liberation Army Navy’s (PLAN’s) 70th anniversary International Fleet Critique in April.
Making the most of this article? Click right here to subscribe for whole obtain. Just $5 a thirty day period.
This 7 days, the defense component of the relationship was in the headlines again with the visit of Chinese Defense Minister Wei Fenghe. Wei, who was in Singapore to go to the Shangri-La Dialogue above the weekend, held conferences with Singapore Protection Minister Ng Eng Hen along with other top rated officials like Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance Heng Swee Keat, Senior Minister and Coordinating Minister for Nationwide Stability Teo Chee Hean.
On the defense facet, even though Wei and Ng talked over a variety of challenges – which include future engagements as nicely as challenges these as self-confidence-making – the most major consequence that was publicly introduced following the meeting was that both equally nations would be deepening defense ties. For every Singapore’s protection ministry, the revised ADESC between the two sides, predicted to be signed by both of those ministers later this 12 months, would contain the establishment of regular substantial-level dialogues, new preparations for services-to-providers cooperation, academic and consider-tank exchanges, as properly as an improve in the scale of current bilateral workout routines.
The arrangement by equally sides to strengthen protection collaboration, although not astonishing, is not without the need of importance when comprehended in just the context of developments now underway. Generally, it is constant with China’s longstanding curiosity in boosting safety ties with Southeast Asian states as section of deepening wider relations, and the expanding willingness amongst some regional countries to pursue a somewhat larger diploma of defense collaboration with Beijing – albeit within just limitations – in recognition of its growing profile and in spite of its shown assertiveness. Extra exclusively, it demonstrates Singapore’s attempts to stabilize its connection with China and calibrate its alignments more usually – such as with international locations this sort of as the United States, a longtime strategic lover – as the region navigates a variety of broader worries at property and abroad and little by little goes by a management changeover absent from Lee Hsien Loong.
Nonetheless, it is important not to overstate the effect of what each sides have publicly announced. The satan is normally in the aspects with these kinds of agreements, and we have but to see the details that will be apparent once the pact is truly signed and then applied. As of now, when the development cited is not insignificant, the regions stated, these types of as exchanges, dialogues, and scaling up current exercises, constitute at best modest gains looking at that the two international locations are a decade into formalized protection collaboration. In addition, if anything, some of the tensions on troubles that have played out in China-Singapore ties over the earlier few decades, from the South China Sea to Chinese impact operations, have only strengthened to Singapore and other regional nations the necessity of pursuing collaboration with Beijing on aspects these kinds of as defense with 1 eye open.
Given all this, the true significance of what both of those sides have labored out will become clearer at the time particular engagements participate in out in the course of the rest of 2019 and into 2020, including the true signing of the revised pact and the upcoming iteration of an workout in between them, Exercising Maritime Cooperation, that is envisioned to be held in 2020 pursuing the earlier iteration in 2015. Paying out awareness to individuals specifics will be critical to evaluate how the rhetoric of improved protection cooperation is actually translating into actuality in the coming years.

Eco-Friendly Cities of the Future
Guest Post by Powertools2U
Pneumatic waste systems, pollution sensors, robots, drones, and self-driving cars…it’s what we expect for the far future. But these features could be coming to a town near you. In 2050 the world population is estimated to be 9.7 billion; currently, it stands at 7.53 billion. To tackle this overpopulation crisis, new cities and towns are being built across the world. With cool tech and eco-friendliness high on the agenda, we look at these futuristic cities that are not far from the present:
1) New Clark City - Most Disaster Resilient City
Location: Capas, Tarlac, Philippines
Start Date: December 2016
Completion Date: December 2050
Developer: BCDA Group
Key Features: Disaster-Proof, Green-Friendly
Population: 1.12 Million Residents and 800 thousand workers
Area Total: 94.50 km2
Cost: $14 Billion
Minimum Elevation:184 feet Above Sea Level
Green Spaces: Two-Thirds of the City will be Green Areas, Farmlands, and Parks
Green Tech: Buildings will be equipped with technology that will reduce energy and water consumption
New Philippines City Could Save $101.09 Billion In Damages
We have to say, one of the coolest parts of this new city is its ability to overcome threats from Mother Nature. The Philippines is renowned for its earthquakes: this past year the country has experienced 157 of them (Data accurate as of 14th August 2018). What doesn’t help the country’s situation is the capital being on a major fault line. This makes Manila the world’s 4th most at risk of disasters. On the other hand, the location of New Clark City could be the country’s saving grace as it will not be near any fault lines, mountains will surround it, and it will be highly elevated, and thus protected from floods and typhoons. Because of this, the new city could save the Philippines $101.09 billion in damages.
Fighting Natural Disasters – Make Lava Not War
The city plans to overcome natural disasters with a disaster-produced material – Lahar. This unique locally sourced material is a type of mudflow formed by volcanoes. Using Lahar and concrete makes even the creation of this new city eco-friendly. It lessens the need for concrete, which requires a lot of source materials for its production.
Manila: Third Worst Traffic in Southeast Asia
The capital of Philippines, Manila, is well known for its traffic jams; it’s one of the reasons why the city has an alarming air-pollution problem that affects 98% of the residents. To tackle this growing problem, the Philippines wants to build a city that doesn’t rely on cars. That’s where New Clark City comes in. This futuristic city will be largely pedestrianised with effective public transportation, cutting down the need for cars.
2) Jing-Jin-Ji - Largest City of the Near Future
Location: China
Area Size: 200,000 km2
Population: Around 100 Million – larger than a third of the United States
Start Date: 2013
Completion Date: 2050
Key Features: Economic Powerhouse, Megacity
Cost: $36 Billion
New Transport Routes: By 2050, 24 intercity railways are planned for completion.
Beijing is well known as China’s capital. But what lies in Beijing’s shadows? Tianjin and Hebei surround the areas of Beijing, but not as much are known about these provinces. Soon, this is about to change: the provinces are about to become a bigger part of the capital’s future. A mega project, which started in 2013, aims to create an economic powerhouse by linking the three regions together. The government wishes to develop roads and railways to provide citizens with a one-hour commute circle around the entire area. This will allow for multiple cities to function as one, meaning better administration, development and economy.
One significant route that will be immensely cut down is Beijing to Tianjin’s Binhai New Area (105 miles). This new commute will link the capital of China to not only one of the busiest ports in the world, but also China’s most important economic development area. A similar route in the U.K – London to Felixstowe (92.6 miles) -- would take two and a half hours by train. One route in Jing Jin Ji (Beijing to Tianjin) will be cut down from three hours to just 37 minutes.
Size of 10 Wales
Creating a megacity the same size as Scotland and England stuck together will hopefully improve Beijing’s congestion by redistributing industries and talent. In doing so, Beijing intends to limit its population to 23 million by 2020.
3) Quayside, Toronto - The Techiest City
Location: Sidewalk of Toronto
Start Date: TBA
Cost: $1.02 Billion
Area: 12 acres
Key Features: Weather Tech, Robots
Green Qualities: Half of the city’s roofs will be solar panels
10% Of Power Will be Quayside-Made
Google’s sister company, Sidewalk Labs, plans to transform Toronto’s Quayside into a futuristic mini city. Toronto’s lack of affordable housing, which is an ongoing problem for people in Toronto, should be conquered with this new vision. Sidewalk Labs intends to use new construction methods to create buildings that are quicker, more eco-friendly, and cheaper to build. The community also plans to be self-sufficient, generating 10% of its own power. Half of the roof space will be covered in solar panels, fuelling the technology and electric cars in the city.
Robots Controlling the Underground
One of the more unique and ambitious parts of this neighbourhood is the use of new technology. The city will employ weather tech to heat pathways for snow conditions as well as use retractable canopies for other climates. High tech won’t just stop at the surface; exciting mechanics will run underneath the town too. Robots will serve underground corridors, carrying utilities and waste.
The City That Watches While You Sleep
However, the smart city has amassed huge privacy concerns. With all the sensors and algorithms planned for the city, critics fear the mounting data that will be collected. Even if there are excellent privacy policies, these can always be changed - for better or worse.
4) Sino-Singapore Tianjin - The Greenest City
Start Date: 28 September 2008
Completion Date: 2020
Area: 30 km2
Population: 350,000
Cost: $6.5 Billion
Jobs: At least 50% of the residents will have jobs within the city
Key Features: Green-Friendly, Green-Spaces, Pneumatic Waste Tunnels
From Toxic Waste to Eco Creation
What was once a dumping ground for toxic waste is soon to become the world’s largest eco-city. Sino-Singapore Tianjin Eco-city, located in China, is purposely being built on wasteland according to the head of the city’s development and investment. Ho Tong Yen said, "In the past, so-called ecocities have been built in ecologically important areas or on useful arable land. We wanted to show that it's possible to clean up a polluted area and make it useful and liveable."
No More Bin Men
Renewable energy will account for at least 20 per cent of the energy used here, including solar, wind and geothermal energy – the latter of which is the use of the earth’s core temperature. There is a focus on eliminating the need for cars too, so nearly all of the traffic in the area will be public transport, with pathways making it easy to cycle or walk. There will also be pneumatic waste collection tunnels that will remove the need for rubbish trucks and the bin men.
One thing that makes this city different is its green spaces throughout the city and reed beds in lakes. Its main emphasis is on liveability for humans and animals - which Ho Tong Yen says has been ignored in the past.
5) Pena Station Next - The City with The Smartest Roads
Location: Denver, Colorado
Area Size: 1.6 km2
Start Date: 2016
Completion Date: 2026
Cost: $500 million
Key Features: Health Tech, Smart Roads
After Panasonic’s success with their smart city project in Fujisawa, Japan, they’re now setting their sights on Colorado. However, according to the president of Panasonic Enterprise Solutions, Jim Doyle, they won’t be building a copycat town of Fujisawa. Panasonic is looking to create a town that is unique to Denver. The developers are aware there are massive cultural differences, and what works in Japan may not work in the U.S. One thing they will take from Fujisawa, though, is a wellness centre. These facilities will encourage inhabitants to live a healthier life. Panasonic wants to use smart scales and smart blood pressure monitors, so if you can’t make it to the doctor’s office they can remotely check on you.
Will Road Accidents Be a Thing of the Past?
Another great use of technology in this futuristic city is their system, called Road X. This amazing tech will allow vehicles and the town’s roads to communicate, meaning fewer accidents and less traffic. The system can suggest to drivers the best route to take based on real-time traffic.
Self-Sufficient Buildings
Clean energy and sustainability are on the cards too. With Colorado’s sun working to its advantage, there will be an abundance of rooftop solar panels, as well as the city’s own microgrid, which will store excess solar energy for backup. Panasonic, which is looking to move its headquarters to the new town, plans on forming a 112,000-square-foot building. The headquarters will be decked out in solar panels – providing power for more than 300 employees. The building will be a four-minute walk from the train station, cutting down on the need for cars. This, Doyle says, is a key part of the whole town - “We really, really want this to be a true transit-oriented development. And if everyone is getting in a car and driving, that’s a huge failure.”
