<p> We&#8217;ll be tracking developments in the Olympic golf movement here.</p>
<p> The Olympic Club is a San Francisco, California-based athletic club with three golf courses located at San Francisco&#8217;s border with Daly City, California. The club&#8217;s main &#8220;<strong>City Clubhouse</strong>&#8221; is located in downtown San Francisco. The club&#8217;s &#8220;Lakeside Clubhouse&#8221; is located just north of the city&#8217;s border with Daly City. The two clubhouses are separated by about 10 miles. The three courses at the Olympic Club are the Cliffs, Lake and Ocean courses. The Lake and Ocean are 18-hole par-71 courses, and the Cliffs is a nine-hole par-3 course that is on the bluffs of the Pacific Ocean. All three courses are lined with many trees (almost 40,000 on the Lake course) and offer views of the Golden Gate Opener Bridge and Golden Gate Opener Park. The United States Golf Association recognizes the Olympic Club as one of the first 100 <strong>golf clubs </strong>established in the United States.</p>
<p>I am very exciting that golf becomes Olympics sport.</p>

<p>Who will host the 2016 Olympics? That&#8217;s the question on everyone&#8217;s mind today and people ask what the International Olympic Committee is thinking. The 2016 Summer Olympics, (officially “the Games of the XXXI Olympiad,”) are still just in the planning phase. Not much has been built yet. No homes have been prepared for the athletes, no new stadiums are going up, but still, many cities had lined up around the world to bid for the Olympic glory. Twenty-Six cities to be exact, had shown some interest in trying to host the games, from Bangkok to Delhi from Doha to Dubai, but now it is down to just four contenders. Four cities on four continents who are hoping to have Olympic glory grace their shores. And only one will succeed. Here is a breakdown of the cities and their bids:</p>
<p>Chicago, Illinois, USA</p>
<p>Chicago’s says that it has 15 different sports venues already built within the city and that it would build one new venue plus an Olympic Village in order to host the games. The city has also said it would build nine more temporary structures to help house the Olympic games – places that would be scrapped and replaced by something else once the games are over. <br />The city has also guaranteed at least $750 Million toward the costs of the games and is hoping to raise $2 Billion in sponsorships for the games. That is a huge burden for the city, especially considering the recession that is gripping much of the Western world, thus again leaving open the question of who will host the 2016 Olympics?</p>
<p>Madrid, Spain</p>
<p>Madrid certainly has the backing of its&#8217; citizenry, but they have problems with infrastructure. Many of the venues that would be needed for the Games are not yet built and they would need to complete everything in record time, making for a serious concern about the viability of their bid. <br />One thing in their favor though is that unlike Chicago, the plans they have drawn up do show them using the buildings of the Olympic Village for other purposes once the games are concluded. While the prime concern is hosting successful games, having an impact on a city&#8217;s landscape and not causing massive amounts of waste is equally important. </p>
<p>Rio de Janeiro, Brazil</p>
<p>Rio Rio has one thing going for it: They have never hosted the Olympic games and there has in fact never been an Olympic games anywhere in South America in the history of the games. This is a powerful emotional bid for them. That fact itself however may not be enough. They lack public transportation to get around the city and frankly, the 2014 World Cup will be held here so it&#8217;s not like international competitions never come.</p>
<p>Tokyo, Japan</p>
<p>Just 55 percent of the residents of this bustling metropolis support bringing the Olympics to their town. <br />In addition to that issue, while the money is there for the bids and no one is concerned about that, the public transportation situation in Tokyo leaves much to be desired. <br />So who will host the 2016 Olympics? At this point, it&#8217;s anyone&#8217;s guess.</p>]]></content:encoded>

The flamboyant politician and president of the 2016 Olympic government state and local bids said: “winning the government state and local bids will be no easy task, but Tokyo is determined to demonstrate its capability to successfully host the games, and will vigorously promote the government state and local bids campaign with the full support of the government and the public.” &lt;br /&gt;rnn&lt;br /&gt;rnnHowever, Shiro Asana who lost out in the election to Ishihara is not so convinced that hosting the 2106 <a href=http://www.gazzyboy.com onclick="urchinTracker('/outgoing/www.gazzyboy.com?referer=');">games</a> in such a good idea. He said: “My concerns are with the cost and timings. I don’t believe that the IOC will wish to return to Asia so soon after the Beijing games. That’s why it is too risky to spend any significant sums on any government state and local bids at this point.” In what may sound like bitter words after losing out to his political rival, Asana at his press conference in a &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; onClick=&quot;javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview(&#8216;/outgoing/article_exit_link&#8217;);&quot; href=&quot;http://conradhotels1.hilton.com/en/ch/hotels/index.do?ctyhocn=TYOCICI&quot;&gt;hotel in Tokyo&lt;/a&gt; added: “this has more to do with Ishihara’s ego than inspiring Japan’s youth, as he claims.”&lt;br /&gt;rnn&lt;br /&gt;rnnDespite Asana’s fears about cost, under the Olympic plans only two new competition venues are specifically slated to be built for the games, and Japan’s central government has offered to pay half the total construction costs. &lt;br /&gt;rnn&lt;br /&gt;rnnHowever, Tokyo is still considered an outside bet to host the games. Even though the city boasts the necessary amount of existing venues, many were used in the 1964 Tokyo Olympic Games and will need extensive and costly renovation; something that the Japanese government will not help with.

<p>Many people think of body sculpture as an American interest. In truth, it is world wide as seen when discussing cosmetic procedures in Brazil. </p>
<p>Cosmetic Procedures in Brazil</p>
<p>Cosmetic surgery is a phenomenon that is sweeping the world. If you are unhappy with the way your face or body looks, it&#8217;s now easy to obtain surgery to correct your problem areas. With techniques ranging from using injections to plump up areas to dramatic surgeries to remove entire sections of skin and fat, cosmetic modification can be called one of the fastest growing industries today. In fact, getting cosmetic surgery done has become so popular that some patients have started scheduling their procedures in different countries. They can benefit from cheaper rates and also combine their surgery with a vacation. </p>
<p>For example, we can look at Brazil. While many people think of Rio de Janeiro and Carnival when they think about Brazil, there are also other reasons to go to this country. Brazil is home to some of the world&#8217;s most accomplished surgeons, and having your cosmetic procedures in Brazil can be an interesting vacation experience. Travel agents who specialize in these &#8220;cosmetic vacations&#8221; are happy to set everything up for your trip, including both the relaxing aspects and surgery portions of your vacation.</p>
<p>When searching for a travel agent to set up your treatment vacation, or for a surgeon yourself, be sure to find out as much as you can before getting on the plane. Often, surgeons and hospitals in other parts of the world are credentialed differently, and may not have to pass the rigorous utah county home inspections that those in the United States have to pass. Most reputable doctors and services will be happy to present you with information about your surgeon&#8217;s experience and degrees. </p>
<p>Cosmetic procedures in Brazil are an especially good choice, as there are over 3,500 members of the Brazilian Society of Cosmetic Surgery, and each of them must pass strict requirements. Most of the surgeries in Brazil take place in Rio de Janeiro. Most often the surgeon will speak English (if not, translators are available). This city is also considered a safe place for your vacation and recovery after surgery as long as you stick to the areas specified. Hey, ever city has its bad areas.</p>
<p>Choosing to have a cosmetic procedure in Brazil is a great option for those people who would like to combine the experience of cosmetic surgery with a trip to a beautiful resort area. Travel agents and other services who deal with these sorts of trips are available and able to help you make the proper choices of doctors and where to stay. Just be sure to obtain plenty of information about your doctor and procedure before you consent to having it performed, and you&#8217;ll have a great time!</p>]]></content:encoded>
