Ariana Ferwerda and Kiley McKinnon are the co-founders of the women's ski and activewear brand Halfdays. McKinnon is a former freestyle aerial skier who competed at the 2018 Pyeongchang Olympics, and Ariana holds degrees in marketing and marketing research from Michigan State University. Despite their different professional backgrounds, when the two met in Denver in 2019, they commiserated over the lack of stylish, mid-range ski apparel options for women. They felt they could do better, and less than a year later, they launched Halfdays, a line of sleek women's skiwear made from nearly 100% recycled materials. Though it was originally a direct-to-consumer company, today, its products are sold in retailers like Nordstrom and Dick's Sporting Goods. The brand has also expanded into hiking gear, athleisure, and more. Last year, it saw 86% year-on-year growth and triple-digit wholesale growth.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

“冰上飞人”高亭宇夺冠｜Gao glides to gloryGao Tingyu broke a decades-oldjinxwhen he won Saturday's men's 500m speed skating final at Beijing 2022.在北京冬奥会速度滑冰男子500米比赛中，在开幕式上担任中国代表团旗手的高亭宇打破“旗手拿不到奥运金牌”的魔咒，获得冠军。The 24-year-old made history at the National Speed Skating Oval by becoming the first Chinese opening-ceremony flagbearer to win gold at either edition of the Olympics in the nation's 42-year Games history.这位24岁的运动员在国家速滑馆“冰丝带”创造了历史，赢得了自1980年中国首次参加冬奥会以来，第一枚速滑男子项目冬奥金牌。Clocking an Olympic-record 34.32 seconds to beat Cha Min-kyu (34.39) of the Republic of Korea and Wataru Morishige (34.49) of Japan, Gao also became the first Chinese man to top the podium in an Olympic speed skating event.高亭宇以34秒32的成绩打破奥运会纪录，击败韩国选手车旼奎（34秒39）和日本选手森重航（34秒49），成为中国第一位站在奥运会短道速滑领奖台上的男性运动员。 The previous record was 34.41, set by Haavard Holmefjord Lorentzen of Norway four years ago in Pyeongchang, where Gao won bronze.上一届世界纪录保持者是挪威选手洛伦森，他在平昌冬奥会创造了34秒41的奥运纪录，而当时高亭宇排名第三。"I did what I promised－to upgrade the bronze to gold," Gao said. "There was noflagbearer jinx. I raced on home ice and I absolutely gave it my all."他说：“我兑现了换奖牌颜色的承诺，什么魔咒不魔咒啊。上场，滑就完了。”Born in Yichun, a city in Northeast China's Heilongjiang province, Gao started skating at the age of 8. After impressing in the junior ranks, he soon emerged as a strongcontenderon the international stage, claiming 500m gold at the Asian Winter Games in February 2017.Ten months later at a World Cup meet in the United States, he set a new national record (34.34) over the distance.高亭宇出生在黑龙江省伊春市，从8岁开始接触滑冰，在青年组名列前茅后，很快在世界舞台崭露头角，逐渐成为一位强劲的对手。2017年2月，在札幌亚洲冬季运动会速度滑冰男子500米比赛中，高亭宇获得金牌。12月，在速度滑冰世界杯美国站男子500米A组比赛中，高亭宇以34秒34的成绩创造了新的全国纪录。 After his breakthrough at the 2018 Pyeongchang Olympics, Gao continued his upward curve, winning the 500m at a World Cup meet in Poland in November 2021, and finishing second in Calgary, Canada, later that season.在2018年平昌冬奥会速度滑冰男子500米决赛中摘得铜牌之后，高亭宇前进的步伐没有停止。2021年11月，在速度滑冰世界杯波兰站男子500米A组决赛中，高亭宇以34秒26的成绩获得冠军，随后在速滑世界杯最后一战加拿大卡尔加里获得亚军。On Saturday, Gao raced in the seventh of the 15 pairs, and shot upto the top of the rankings with his Olympic record, which the likes ofdefending championLorentzen and reigning world champion Laurent Dubreuil of Canada could not beat.1月12日，比赛共有30位选手，分15组进行，高亭宇被分到第七组内道出发。他打破了奥运纪录，一跃成为世界冠军，让平昌冬奥会冠军洛伦森和去年世锦赛冠军洛朗·迪布勒伊等人都望尘莫及。 Gao said the main difference from his triumphant Beijing run compared to his bronze-medal finish in Pyeongchang was his mentality.高亭宇表示，与他在平昌冬奥会获得铜牌相比，在北京冬奥会上夺金主要取决于他的心态。 "This time I skated on home ice and I felt both nervous and excited, which is good for competing in important races," Gao said.他说：“主场作战，本就是让人极度兴奋的一件事情，旗手的身份则更能让我充满力量。”Despite his record time, Gao still wasn't totally satisfied with his performance.尽管创造了历史，但高亭宇对自己的表现并没有百分百满意。 "I pulled a leg muscle yesterday, so I didn't skate in my optimum physical condition. I reckon I could shorten the record more," said Gao, who despite his lightning-fast heroics on ice describes himself as a person who likes to live life in the slow lane.他说：“我昨天腿部肌肉拉伤了，今天没发挥出来，赛前预想的是要到34秒1左右，这个成绩比我正常水平已经慢了0.1到0.2秒。”尽管高亭宇在冰上以闪电般的速度展现了自己的英雄气概，但他却说自己是一个喜欢慢生活的人。"I like the sound of wind beside my ears when I skate. It feels exciting," said Gao, whodrapedhimself in the national flag to celebrate around the infield of the oval.高亭宇表示：“喜欢风声‘呼呼的感觉'，小时候第一次滑冰，就爱上了这种在冰面上自由自在的感觉，特别神奇又特别享受其中。”他身披中国国旗，在在椭圆形的内场周围庆祝。His victory earned applause fromdethronedchamp Lorentzen, as well as a fellow Chinese Olympic hero, Zhang Hong.高亭宇的表现赢得了上届冬奥会冠军洛伦森和中国另一位奥运冠军张虹的肯定。"He was impressive. He's been the favorite all season, since he skated so fast in the first World Cup meet. He raced so fast that everyone thought it would be impossible to beat him here at the Olympics," said Lorentzen, who finished 15th. "It's cool to see that he succeeds on home soil. I congratulate him."“他的表现给人印象十分深刻。自从他在世界杯比赛中滑出如此快的速度，整个赛季他都是最受欢迎的选手。他滑得如此之快，以至于所有人都认为在本届冬奥会上击败他是不可能的。”洛伦森说，“看到他在自己的祖国取得成功，实在是太酷了，恭喜！” Zhang, China's first Olympic gold medalist in speed skating, was thrilled to see a Chinese man finally top the podium in the sport.张虹曾获得中国冬奥会历史上的第一枚速度滑冰金牌，在看到中国短道速滑运动员再次登上奥运会领奖台时很是激动。"I'm very glad to see my championship has been passed on after eight years," said Zhang, who retired in 2018."Gao is more confident and more mature than me. I hope he can enjoy the moment.张虹于2018年退役，她表示：“我真心觉得8年前的这个冠军现在能传承下去，有更多的突破，自己作为一名速度滑冰选手感觉到特别的荣幸和自豪。他（高亭宇）比我更有自信、更成熟。我也希望他享受这一刻。”"Now I can say to the world that we have the best speed skaters, the best venue and we are truly a winter sports country."“我相信这一刻我们的骄傲可以向全世界来说，我们有最棒的运动员，我们有最棒的速度滑冰场馆，我们就是一个冰雪大国。”jinx英 [dʒɪŋks]；美 [dʒɪŋks]n. 厄运，霉运，不祥的人[物]contender英 [kənˈtendə(r)]；美 [kənˈtɛndɚ]n.竞争者；争夺者defending champion英[dɪ'fendɪŋˈtʃæmpiən]；美[ dɪ'fɛnd tʃæmpiən]n.卫冕冠军drape英[dreɪp]；美[drep]v.遮盖；盖住；身披dethrone英 [ˌdi:ˈθrəʊn]；美 [ˌdiˈθroʊn]vt.废黜，废位赶出

“冰上王者”不畏挫折 虽败犹荣｜Brave 'Ice Prince' sees crown slip from graspDespite missing out on the podium, Yuzuru Hanyu deserves the utmost respect for his Beijing 2022 campaign.尽管错失奖牌，羽生结弦在2022年北京冬奥会上的表现值得最高的敬意。In alast-ditch attempt tosalvagea medal, the "Ice Prince" took on figure skating's most difficult jump－the 4 1/2-rotation quadruple axel.为了登上冬奥最高领奖台，这位“冰上王者”只有孤注一掷，去完成花样滑冰中难度最大的跳跃动作——阿克塞尔四周跳（4A）。 The 27-year-oldunder-rotated and stumbled upon landing. He fell again attempting a quadruplesalchowbefore performing the remainder of his routine cleanly.比赛中，27岁的羽生结弦旋转周数不足，滑倒在冰面上。紧接着的下一个四周跳，羽生结弦又摔倒了，但他依旧完美地完成了接下来的表演。 Taking a bow to loud applause and touching the ice before stepping off the rink at the Capital Indoor Stadium, the two-time defending champion cut a lonely figure sitting by himself as he awaited his score, intensifying the feeling that this could have been hisswan song.在首都体育场内，这位奥运会卫冕冠军在雷鸣般的掌声中深深鞠躬。他弯腰用双手接触冰面，直至离开冰面的那一刻。在等分区，羽生结弦独自一人坐着，更让人觉得这可能是他的最后一场比赛。 The judges scored him 188.06 points－good enough for third place in the free skate but fourth overall. He could only manage eighth in Tuesday's short program after missing a quad salchow near the start of his routine.裁判给出了188.06分，这个分数足以让他在自由滑比赛中获得第三。但在2月8日的短节目比赛中，他开场时错过了一个四周跳，暂列第八。因此，羽生结弦的总成绩排名第四。Nathan Chen of the United States won the gold medal with 218.63 points in the free program and 332.60 in total. Japan's Yuma Kagiyama and Shoma Uno took silver and bronze respectively.最终，美国选手陈巍以总分332.60分、自由滑218.63分夺冠。日本选手键山优真、宇野昌磨分获银、铜牌。"I have given my all, and the quadruple axel was better than I executed before," said Hanyu, who also under rotated the quad axel and landed it with two feet at the Japanese national championships in December.羽生结弦表示：“说实话我发挥出了全部水平。很明显，我的4A跳比以前的比赛要好。”在去年12月的全日锦标赛中，他挑战了4A，但双足落冰。 "I made a big mistake in the quad salchow, but I performed well to the music Heaven and Earth. I regretted the performance in the short program, but I did my best today. “我在四周跳的时候失误了，但我想，就某种程度而言，正是因为开局阶段的那两次失误，才成就了《天与地》其中的意味吧。在短节目中发生了那样的意外，确实是非常遗憾和不甘心。但我一直以来，我已经尽我全力把我能想到的，还有应该做的都做了。”"Honestly, it feels like everything has gone wrong this time around, but I did my best," he added.羽生结弦补充道：“说实话我感觉这次哪里都不对劲，但我真的拼尽全力努力了。”Hanyu started skating at the age of 4, and made his international debut at the 2008 Junior Grand Prix Merano Cup, where he finished fifth.羽生结弦四岁开始滑冰，2008年开始在国际上崭露头角，在世界花样滑冰大奖赛青少年组排名第五。After joining the adult ranks, he quickly began torack upsilverwareand milestones. He became the first Asian to win men's singles Olympic gold at the 2014 Sochi Games and retainedthe title four years later in Pyeongchang to become the first male skater to captureback-to-backOlympic titles since American Dick Button in 1952.在升入成人组之后，他很快就开始收获奖牌并创下各种纪录。2014年，他夺得索契冬奥会金牌，成为亚洲首位冬奥会男子单人滑冠军。四年后，他在平昌冬奥会上蝉联冠军，成为继1948、1952卫冕的美国选手迪克·巴顿（Dick Button）后以来，首位蝉联冬奥会男单冠军的花样滑冰选手。 Pioneering difficult jumps and combinations has been a signature of his career. He was the first skater to perform a clean quadruple loop jump, a quadruple toeloop-Euler-triple flip combination, and a quadruple toeloop-triple axel sequence in competitions.开创性的高难度跳跃和动作组合是他职业生涯的标志。羽生结弦是历史上第一个在正式比赛中完成后外结环四周跳、后外点冰四周接尤勒接后内点冰跳三周跳（4T+1Lo+3S）、后外点冰四周接阿克塞尔三周连跳的选手。 He has been crowned world champion twice, in 2014 and 2017, and also broken 19 scoring records－the most in singles since the current judging system was introduced in 2004.除了在2014和2017年卫冕世界花滑锦标赛，羽生结弦还19次打破世界纪录，这是自2004年引入现行裁判制度以来最多的。Hanyu has achieved all of this despite numerous injury setbacks.羽生结弦获得了所有荣誉，但也经历了数不尽的伤痛。Before the 2018 Pyeongchang Olympics, he injured his right ankle after landing awkwardly in practice before the 2017 NHKTrophy. Being unable to train for several weeks, he returned to the ice just in time for the Pyeongchang Games and remarkably came away with the title.在2018年平昌冬奥会之前，在国际滑联NHK杯花样滑冰大奖赛的公开训练中，羽生结弦因摔倒导致右脚踝受伤。在数周无法训练的情况下，他在平昌冬奥会上及时复出，并出人意料地获得了冠军。 He endured similar problems in the build-up to Beijing 2022, withdrawing from the Grand Prix events due to a right-ankleligamentissue before coming back to win the Japanese national championships at the end of last year to secure his Olympicberth.在备战2022年北京冬奥会的过程中，羽生结弦也经历了类似的挫折，因为右脚踝韧带问题退出了大奖赛。但他在2021年年底复出并问鼎全日锦标赛冠军，保住了北京冬奥会的入场券。 He raised the bar for the Beijing Games, challenging himself to complete the quad axel in a bid to claim a third straight singles crown. But it wasn't to be.在北京奥运会上，羽生结弦对自己提高了标准，挑战完成阿克塞尔四周跳，争取获得第三块奥运会金牌，但现实却和他开了个玩笑。 "It was a hard time for me on the ice. If I wasn't doing the quad axel, I could have done a better combo. But that was my target. It felt more complete to attempt it. That's why I did it," Hanyu said.“虽然觉得很难，但这是我无论如何都想达成的目标。我今天如果不做4A，完全可以做一个成功率更高的动作组合，但在这届奥运会上尝试完成4A，这是我的骄傲，它让我的冰上生涯更完整。”"As for whether I will continue to attempt the quad axel, I think I need more time to consider. This time I have tried my best."“这是迄今为止我完成的最好的4A了。至于以后是否会继续挑战，我还需要时间去考虑一下，这次我已经拼尽全力了，请给我一点时间。”Hanyu's bravery earned the respect of his younger rivals.羽生结弦的勇气赢得了年轻对手的尊重。"Only Hanyu could complete the quad axel and he's always been at the top for years," said bronze medalist Uno. "He pushed the limits of himself, which I cannot imitate. I don't think I can do what he does. He carries everyone's hopes and pressure on his shoulders."季军获得者宇野昌磨表示：“我觉得只有羽生结弦才能做到4A这个动作，这么多年来他一直都是顶级选手。而且他的精神一直是在挑战自己的极限，这是我没有办法去模仿的。他肩负着每个人的希望，也需要承受很多压力。”China's Jin Boyang, who finished ninth, also expressed admiration.中国选手金博洋获得第九，他也向羽生结弦表达了敬佩和赞叹。"It's incredible that he took on the challenge of the quad axel at the age of 27 at his third Olympics. It shows his hunger to keep striving for better performances, which is what the spirit of sports and the Olympics is all about. We can all learn from it," Jin said. “我觉得他的精神是不可思议的，如果是我，参加第二届奥运会后肯定会退役，但他还继续参加了第三届。在27岁的时候还在突破四周半可能会更难。这两点如果能够达到一点，我觉得这种精神都值得人们学习。”Chen, who atoned for his fifth-place finish in Pyeongchang, simply said: "In my opinion, he's the greatest skater ever."这次夺冠的美国选手陈巍曾在平昌奥运会获得第五，对于羽生结弦，他表示：“在我看来，他是有史以来最伟大的花滑运动员”。last-ditch英 [lɑ:st ditʃ]；美 [læst dɪtʃ]adj. 坚持到最后的;拼死抵抗的;无后退余地的;最后防线的salvage英 [ˈsælvɪdʒ]；美 [ˈsælvɪdʒ]v.挽回，保留，维持swan song英[swɔn sɔŋ]；美[swɑn sʊŋ]n.最后作品;（歌唱家、演员等的）告别演出;天鹅哀鸣（西方古老传说中认为天鹅临死前会发出忧伤动听的歌声）rack up英 [ræk ʌp]；美 [ræk ʌp]（商业上）大量获得（利润），遭受(严重损失)，热销；（体育中）获胜，得（分）silverware英 [ˈsɪlvəweə(r)]；美 [ˈsɪlvərwer]n.

Full episode and Show Notes - www.wearelookingsideways.com On this week's episode I welcomed the great Lesley McKenna back to the show for her second visit, a mere four years after her first appearance in June 2017. If you don't know Lesley, she's a snowboarder and Olympian who is, to my mind, one of the most original and quietly influential thinkers in action sports. Lesley was actually my first ever female guest, and in the intervening years a lot has changed - and not just for the my humble little podcast. There's the fact that her efforts with GB Park & Pipe (which formed a large part of that original discussion), helped yield a further British bronze medal for Billy Morgan at the 2018 Pyeongchang Olympics, as well as the wider changes we can expect following skating and surfing's own Olympic bow at the 2020 Tokyo Games. It's the type of new territory that is, to my mind, crying out for the type of sophisticated insight that Lesley specialises in.Whenever I need to sense check my understanding of any new developments in our world, Lesley is my first port of call. Which is why I decided to get her back on the show for an agenda-free catch up about all things sideways as our culture steps into a brave new post-Tokyo world. I've been lucky enough to count Lesley as a close friend for over 25 years now, and I always relish our time together. I know the conversation will leap off in spontaneous directions, and that it'll be thought-provoking and intellectually nourishing. I purposefully didn't prepare for this conversation so I could enjoy that spontaneity in real time, and that's exactly how it panned out. Enjoying the podcast? Want to keep it free and ad-free?

ALEXI PAPPAS is an award-winning writer, filmmaker, and Olympic athlete. Her writing has appeared in The New York Times, Runner's World, Women's Running, Sports Illustrated, The Atlantic, and Outside, among other publications, and she has been profiled in The New York Times, Sports Illustrated, New York,
and Rolling Stone. Pappas co-wrote, co-directed, and starred in the feature film Tracktown with Rachel Dratch and Andy Buckley. Most recently, she co-wrote and starred alongside Nick Kroll in Olympic Dreams, the first non-documentary-style movie to ever be filmed at the Olympic Games. A Greek American, Pappas holds the Greek national record in the 10,000-meters and competed for Greece in the 2016 Olympics. She lives in Los Angeles, California. Dubbed a “renaissance runner” by the New York Times, Alexi Pappas competed (and broke records) for Greece in the 2016 Rio Olympics and was training for Tokyo when the pandemic hit. As a writer, she has built a supportive community on social media with her free-spirited persona and inspirational poems. She is also an actress and filmmaker, co-creating and starring in the films Tracktown (with Rachel Dratch and Andy Buckley) and Olympic Dreams (with Nick Kroll), the latter of which was filmed at the 2018 PyeongChang Olympics as part of their Artists-in-Residency program and premiered at SXSW '19 with distribution from IFC Films. Pappas' latest artistic feat is an empowering, funny and fearless memoir-in essays: BRAVEY: Chasing Dreams, Befriending Pain, and Other Big Ideas (The Dial Press Hardcover; On Sale January 12). Pappas candidly opens up about what she has learned about confidence, self-reliance, and mental health, including her struggles with post-Olympic depression and how her mother's suicide when she was four-years-old altered the course of her life and set her on a journey to self-actualization. BRAVEY is filled with personal stories that span from Pappas' early search for female role models, to her ongoing fight to pursue both her athletic and creative dreams, to learning about motherhood from a chance meeting with Maya Rudolph, who wrote the foreword to the memoir. Pappas' charm and go-after-it attitude are evident throughout, as she reveals her honest and entertaining reflections on each touchstone moment and the valuable lessons she learned along the way—foremost among them, how to be brave.

The first thing you should read about cybersecurity this week, if you somehow haven't already, is this in-depth look at Olympic Destroyer, the malware that plagued the Pyeongchang Olympics. An excerpt from WIRED senior writer Andy Greenberg's upcoming book Sandworm, the feature from our November issue details how investigators figured out who was behind the attack—a trickier puzzle to solve than you might think.

  On May 26, Maddie Phaneuf wrote a crisp and revealing blog post about her struggle with mental health issues after the 2018 Olympics. The blog post was titled Invisible Battles, and like many who suffer from a mental health crisis, her struggle was real but often difficult to discuss candidly. Phaneuf does a great service to the community by describing the symptoms she experienced and how she sought help from mental health professionals. Phaneuf was eventually diagnosed with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder or PTSD as a result of falling ill with strep throat during the 2018 Games and being unable to race. The myopic pursuit of excellence and fulfilling the Olympic dream took an unexpected turn in PyeongChang that left her feeling like a fraud. She questioned her identity as an athlete as she contemplated leaving the sport. The let down of being named to the Olympic team then falling ill and not racing precipitated a downward spiral for the now twenty-four-year-old.  “When we learn about PTSD we usually tie it with war veterans, so it's not common for people to associate PTSD with athletes,” Phaneuf wrote in her post.  Maddie Phaneuf at the 2018 PyeongChang Olympics. Phaneuf used this image in her blog post and titled it “Before shit hit the fan…” (Photo: courtesy Maddie Phaneuf) In this episode, we speak with Phaneuf who has relocated to Lake Placid, New York after a stint in Boulder, Colo. She has since rekindled balance in her life and is pursuing a spot on the US Biathlon team. She also reflects on the importance of seeking professional help. That's also a recommendation FasterSkier promotes. buy temovate online buy temovate online   Here's some advice from Phaneuf on finding balance and maintaining wellness that was included in her blog post: If you're interested in non-therapy ways I've found help me feel more balanced and generally happy, here's that list.

Success leaves clues. If someone has done very well financially decade over decade, they’re not lucky - they’re doing something different. If someone is fit and healthy for 20 years, they’re not lucky - they understand what it takes. They have a strategy that works, and if you follow that path and sow the same seeds, you’ll not only save yourself decades of trial and error, you’ll be that much closer to operating on the level that you want to be. Perhaps your goal is to become so mentally fit that absolutely nothing will stand in your way. Maybe you’re ready to take your physiology to the next level and be in a peak state of fitness. Or maybe you’ve drawn that line in the sand, refusing to live a single day longer in suffering, and are ready to start living a life of happiness, joy and fulfillment. Whatever it is, we can all learn from others who have been there and already overcome the challenges that we are facing. If you want lasting results, you must keep growing. What can you learn by studying others’ paths to success? In this first episode of the Tony Robbins Podcast Peak Performers season, you’ll have a front-row seat as Tony sits down with three-time Olympic gold-medalist Shaun White - who holds the record for most X-Games gold medals and most Olympic gold medals by a snowboarder. Shaun was an unlikely athlete. Born with an actual hole in his heart, he went through several operations when he was just a child. But that hardly slowed him down. He was skateboarding by 5 years old and snowboarding soon after. By 13 he went pro, and began competing in everything from halfpipe to slopestyle, making a name for himself in the X-Games. Along the way, every failure or missed opportunity only fueled his competitive drive, and soon propelled him into the Olympics - where the highs and lows not only took a toll, but ultimately helped Shaun become the athlete, and the man he was truly meant to be. Shaun talks to Tony about his lifelong journey to becoming one of the most successful snowboarders in history, the uphill battle back from devastating injury and a massive loss at Sochi, and the ultimate redemption at the 2018 PyeongChang Olympics. They delve into what it means to embrace risk, to absolute importance of mental and physical fitness, and why a single decision can lead you down the path to greatness.  

The Fancy Bear hacking group has plenty of tools at its disposal, as evidenced by its attacks against the Democratic National Committee, the Pyeongchang Olympics, and plenty more. But cybersecurity firm ESET appears to have caught the elite Russian team using a technique so advanced, it hadn't ever been seen in the wild until now.

LISTEN TO DAVID HOWMAN TALK WITH RADIO SPORT BREAKFAST ABOVE Former World Anti-Doping Agency director-general David Howman has lambasted the poor principles involved in the decision to usher Russia back into the WADA programme.The World Anti-Doping Agency declared Russia's scandal-ridden drug-fighting operation back in business Thursday, a decision designed to bring a close to one of sports' most notorious doping scandals but one bitterly disputed by hundreds of athletes and described as "treachery" by the lawyer for the man who exposed the corruption.On a 9-2 vote, the executive committee took the advice of the agency's compliance review panel and declared RUSADA as having satisfied conditions of reinstatement that were gradually softened over the summer.In most tangible ways, the decision doesn't change much: RUSADA has been up and running for a while, bringing one of the world's largest testing programs back on line with the help of officials from Britain and elsewhere. And Russia's Olympic committee was brought back into the fold after the Pyeongchang Olympics, where athletes who could prove they were clean were able to compete as "Olympic Athletes from Russia."But RUSADA's reinstatement, after nearly a three-year suspension, now clears the country to again bid for major international events — although soccer's World Cup was held there this summer despite that restriction.Howman says they haven't satisfied critical conditions, and people are dreaming if they think Russia will cough up evidence in the next six months that leads to the sanctioning of athletes.WADA have granted the concession at an executive committee meeting in the Seychelles.Howman told Radio Sport Breakfast how the politics work."What the Russians have been able to do is put pressure on through saying 'look, we will be able to hold international events if we were compliant, and the IOC is saying 'that's pretty important, because international federations want to hold their world championships at no costs."The IOC form half of the WADA board.Howman says he was once a cynical optimist about doping in sport, now he says he's a cynical pessimist.The move also clears a major hurdle for Russia's track team to be declared compliant by that sport's international governing body (IAAF) — one of the few to take a strong, consistent stand against the doping — though IAAF released a statement saying there were other milestones still unmet and its next update isn't due until December.Perhaps most importantly, hundreds of athletes and dozens of world anti-doping leaders see it as a stinging rebuke to the ideal of fair play."WADA's decision to reinstate Russia represents the greatest treachery against clean athletes in Olympic history," said Jim Walden, the attorney for Grigory Rodchenkov, the former Moscow lab director who exposed much of the Russian scheme.WADA had been telegraphing the move since Sept. 14, when it released the recommendation of its compliance review committee. Olympic champion Beckie Scott resigned from that committee afterward."I'm profoundly disappointed," Scott said to Canadian broadcaster CBC after the decision. "I feel this was an opportunity for WADA, and they have dealt a devastating blow to clean sport. I'm quite dismayed."Ben Hawes, chairman of the British Olympic Association's Athletes' Commission, said: "It is clear the process of the removal of these sanctions whilst key criteria has yet to be fulfilled has angered the athlete community."Even in Russia, where the news was welcomed, it came with a sense that there's still work to be done."These questions will always follow us," said RUSADA CEO Yuri Ganus, whose appointment to the job was part of the housecleaning at the agency that WADA demanded. "These aren't the kind of skeletons which can lie unnoticed in the closet. These are the skeletons which will be banging on the closet door all the time."The two biggest roadblocks to RUSADA's reinstatement (and still pen...

China’s government is investing into the growth of hockey’s popularity in the country with the 2022 Beijing Olympics right around the corner. However, the stance of National Hockey League (NHL) remains uncertain in the country due to its decision not to let its players participate in the PyeongChang Olympics in 2018. Missing out on another Olympics could negatively affect the NHL’s overall appeal among Asian audiences, especially with the NHL’s recent drive to establish global interest that includes regular calendar for hockey events around the world, including China.

The 2018 Pyeongchang Winter Olympics placed South Korea front and center on the world stage. Yet this country of just over 50 million people has been occupying the headlines often in recent months, and South Korean policymakers are finding themselves at a crossroads. While Chinese economic influence in the country continues to grow, the security alliance with the United States remains critical in the wake of North Korean advancements to their nuclear weapons and missile programs. What path will South Korea pursue as China and the United States compete for influence on the Korean peninsula? What are the prospects for progress on inter-Korean relations in the wake of Kim Yo-jong's historic visit to South Korea for the Pyeongchang Olympics? Featuring: Scott A. Snyder, Senior Fellow for Korea Studies and Director of the Program on US-Korea Policy, Council on Foreign Relations. 

With a South Korean delegation currently in Pyongyang and the Winter Paralympics set to start on Thursday, it is certainly an interesting time for inter-Korean and DPRK-U.S. relations.

Changes in regional politics around the North Korea issue, including growing speculation about a preemptive U.S. strike on North Korea and a warming in North-South relations ahead of the PyeongChang Olympics have generated new debates in China on its North Korea policy. In part two of this two-part podcast, Paul Haenle sat down with Jia Qingguo, Dean of the School of International Studies at Peking University, to discuss the possibility of a preemptive military strike on North Korea, the stability of the North Korean regime, and the dangers of North Korea’s weapons program for international nuclear proliferation.

Today's theme: Gangwondo (in time for Pyeongchang Winter Olympics) The 2018 Pyeongchang Winter Olympics is an ongoing international event hosted by the county of Pyeongchang here in Korea. The games aren't limited to the county itself. With a comparatively large population, the nearby coastal city of Gangneung can lay claim to being the true Olympic capital. Let us introduce to you Gangneung, a city full of the cool scent of the sea and the pine trees and the province of Gangwondo. The Conversationalist with John Breckenfeld full-time visiting professor of English Language and Literature Department at Gangneung-Wonju National University “So the Olympics has finally started, and you must be familiar with all the locals' excitements and expectations of hosting the world event in their hometown. How do you think people in Gangneung are feeling about hosting the Olympics and how do you personally feel watching all the developments and finally the games being underway? Pyeongchang has lost two times to Vancouver and Sochi in a bid to host the winter Olympics. It won in the third trial in Durban, South Africa in 2011. So it should be all the more special to the locals - do you think the way events are carried out lives up to the expectations of everyone?” & Gene Justice an organizer of expat community activities in Gangneung organizer of Korean food podcast Tipple & Squid “I understand you yourself will invite a friend over to watch a ski event in the PyeongChang Olympics. But generally how do the local expats feel about the Olympics? One of the most well-known Gangwondo food would be Chodang Dubu (초당 두부) - there's a village in Gangneung devoted to it. For our listeners who don't know what it is, can you give us an introduction?” Media Monster Mario Kart Next week: tbs eFM Pyeongchang Olympics Special

Today's theme: Plagirism Recently, Korean singer Sunmi and composer Teddy were under suspision of plagiarizing her track “Heroine.” Some popel have argued that the song is a copy of “Fight for This Love” by Cheryl Cole. Also, Momoland's latest song “Bboom Bboom” has been accused of plagirism by Serebro, the original singers of “Mi Mi Mi.” Meanwhile, some of the Korean TV productions have criticized China's brazen plaigirim of Korean programs such as “Yoon's Kitchen” and “Hyori's Homestay.” We look into the definition of copyright and discuss the controversies surrounding plagirism issues in many different fields including music, TV, academia, etc. The Conversationalist with Professor Mun Chae-young (문채영) from Seoul Women's University General English Program “We see many thesis plagiarism charges raised against academic figures. Just how difficult is it to get a thesis approved? How long does it take to write one, and how many sources do you have to refer to?” & Lawyer Baek Kyung-tae (백경태) from Korea Copyright Commission “Often times, we see so many plagiarism issues in terms of breaching copyrights of original works in music, television shows, films, product brands and many more. How effective are these copyrights when it comes to plagiarism controversies?” & Kpopalypse K-pop blogger based in Australia who is also a music teacher “Earlier in the show, we listened to clips of Sunmi's Heroine and Cheryl Cole's Fight for this love. For many of us they sound strikingly similar but can you explain for us why this does not constitute a plagiarism?” Media Monster Mishima: A Life in 4 Chapters Next week: Gangwondo (in time for Pyeongchang Olympics)

0203 Planet Korea : The PyeongChang Olympics & inter-Korean relations

Changes in regional politics around the North Korea issue, including growing speculation about a preemptive U.S. strike on North Korea and a warming in North-South relations ahead of the PyeongChang Olympics have generated new debates in China on its North Korea policy. In part one of this two-part podcast, Paul Haenle sat down with Jia Qingguo, Dean of the School of International Studies at Peking University, to discuss recent shifts in regional geopolitics, debates around Chinese leverage over North Korea, and developments that could lead to greater U.S.-China cooperation to resolve the issue.

Kevin puts in some gripes about Marky Mark and his relation to the city of Philadelphia (19:30) while Johnny tells the fun story of the Clippers-Rockets Underground Brawl that almost went down (30:00). The boys figure out the storylines they care about in the 2018 Pyeongchang Olympics (35:30) and end with recommending the Netflix show “The End of the F***ing World” to listeners (42:30). What movie will they pick… "Next"? What will the… "Next" podcast episode be about? Will you listen to the… "Next" episode? Probably not...

On Wednesday, Nordic Nation reached Biathlon Canada President Murray Wylie to discuss an open letter he signed on behalf of his organization and sent to the leaders of the International Biathlon Union. We encourage you to read this more in-depth article on the open letter for some detailed context before listening to this podcast episode. Here's some of the key info from that piece: On Dec. 10, the Executive Board of the International Biathlon Union (IBU) announced that the Russian Biathlon Union (RBU) had been relegated to “provisional membership” for the 2017/2018 competition season. The IBU's decision comes on the heels of the International Olympic Committee's recent actions on Russia's participation at the 2018 Winter Games. Despite the RBU's less-than-full IBU member status, Russia is still scheduled to host the final IBU World Cup races of the season from March 20-25 in Tyumen and IBU Cup 7 & 8 in Uvat and Khanty-Mansiysk. In an open letter sent to IBU President Anders Besseberg and IBU Secretary General Nicole Resch dated Dec. 8, 2017, Wylie stated Biathlon Canada will not be sending athletes to the IBU-sanctioned events in Russia in March. In the letter, Wylie included the following reasons for this declaration:  “The occurrence of high-level IBU events in Russia is inconsistent with the IOC decision of 05 December to disallow participation by the Russia Team in the PyeongChang Olympics:” “the integrity of anti-doping procedures in Russia is still very much uncertain, given the current situation in which RUSADA remains non-compliant with WADA.” Listen for more from Wylie, as told to FasterSkier on Dec. 13: albuterol . buy naltrexone online buy chantix online The post Nordic Nation: Biathlon Canada President Murray Wylie on Boycotting Russia appeared first on FasterSkier.com.

In more than a decade with the U.S. Ski Team, women's coach Matt Whitcomb has picked up a few lessons about how to connect with athletes and how to nudge them in the direction of their best possible performance on race day. In this episode of Nordic Nation, we connected with Whitcomb while in western Massachusetts on Nov. 10. Whitcomb has now jumped the pond and is in Europe, prepping his team for the first World Cup on Friday in Kuusamo, Finland. U.S. Ski Team Women's Coach Matt Whitcomb (r) reviews video with Sadie Bjornsen on some climbing technique Wednesday at a training camp in Bend, Ore. (Video: FasterSkier Vimeo) Whitcomb, 39, began his career with the U.S. Ski Team back in 2006. Along the way, he appears to have developed a reputation as a team builder — one who can be inclusive when it comes to embracing the many types of personalities the sport attracts. You'll hear Whitcomb discuss how he's learned to build team unity and how he deals with the stresses of the World Cup. Whitcomb also dives headfirst into the realm of anti-doping stances with a passionate statement of how the sport should move forward before the PyeongChang Olympics in February 2018. Standing between Chelsea Marshall and Matt Whitcomb, Liz Stephens waves as she is introduced to the crowd at Fenway Park. In the background, her smile is seen on the bigscreen. On a lighter note, those who follow the sport know Whitcomb rocks a Red Sox cap whenever possible. Unabashedly, as we learn in the short audio clip below that did not make the final podcast edit farther down the page, the Red Sox hat has become one of Whitcomb's hallmark cultural exports — having to do with his “disgust” with Yankees hats all over Europe. If you see a Swedish coach sporting a Red Sox hat at the World Cup, you'll know who is responsible. Whitcomb and his anti-Yankees crusade: http://fasterskier.com/wp-content/blogs.dir/1/files/2017/11/Whitcomb-and-Red-Sox.mp3 (Note: Although the podcast host grew up on the Massachusetts border, he is not a Red Sox fan, and in fact, cheered loudly with his dad in the Shea Stadium stands during Game 6 when the baseball dribbled under Buckner. Acknowledged are the Red Sox recent World Series rings.)   (To subscribe to the Nordic Nation podcast channel, download the iTunes app. If you have iTunes, subscribe to Nordic Nation here.)
