violent ... The failed Olympic bid

It had been many days I did not write any blog, and not because he has thought about quitting, but because my last circumstances are preventing me have some free time to devote to it.

And this time I have not written one of the events that have more relevance is the description Rio de Janeiro as an organizer of the 2016 Olympic Games at the expense of Madrid (for those who want to remember some of the things said on TV about this, humorous leave here this video: )

This reminded me, the real and ridiculous fiasco that made my city (Seville) years before wanting to stand for nomination in 2004 (which eventually went to Athens) and 2008 (who took Beijing).
But I do not have for a long time, I'll put the full text already wrote another blogger on this issue, and it explains very well what happened at that time:
SEVILLA
2004



Barcelona 92 \u200b\u200bsuccess, especially in the aspect of transformation of the city, greatly impressed the elite of many English cities, who since then have sought their own "Barcelona 92 "as the Summer Olympic Games, the Winter Universiade in or Mediterranean Games. Request a big sports event has become the perfect excuse to seek popularity, votes or try the integrated processing of your city or the achievement of a necessary investment and fair by the way emergency.
For Sevilla and Olympic bids (like that of Jaca, with some differences) is paradigmatic of this, with the aggravating circumstance that the city's Guadalquivir had an Expo in 1992 also meant a flood of investment in the city and a series of dramatic improvements and certainly necessary (AVE Madrid-Sevilla , highways, new bridges, urbanization of the island of La Cartuja, e tc) as no longer a little surprising that on as early as 1994 and be committed to a bid for the Olympics 2004 ...

Sometimes things do not occur because an entire society makes it possible or required because a generation, at times, but the historiographical trends are contrary to it, things happen at the hands of one man, one person.
So, Barcelona 92 \u200b\u200bwas possible thanks to Juan Antonio Samaranch and Sevilla 2004.2008 or 2012, should have happened, had been due to Alejandro Rojas-Marcos of Viesca .
Antonio Burgos Nobody better than to describe it: "most wanted to be Samaranch, in effect, to an ambitious politician, populist, a demagogue so smart how he, the remote possibility of an Olympic Sevilla was a bonanza, and in this vein was tied. Having
the key governance Sevilla City Council from 1991 was Potosi took advantage to agree with the PP first and the PSOE later to be mayor from 1991 to 1995, lieutenant mayor from 1995 to 1999, president of the Seville subway and head especially visible with different positions of the candidates Seville ...

is difficult to understand how so many people could be involved in this adventure that no one really well-informed about the Olympic could believe ...
Sevilla is a wonderful city but is too small, no sports facilities in hotel rooms, transportation, tradition, moreover, what it cost (72 years of disappointment, economic investment obscene) to obtain for Barcelona Olympics, "someone believed that Spain would again twelve years later?, Rojas-Marcos might not believe it, but the COE and ( timidly) the Government and the Royal Family were involved in the " fregao " and the application is submitted.

The first nomination is 1994 and has the "advice" of Josep Miquel Abad, former CEO of COOB 92, proposes a number of existing facilities and build others (notably the Estadio de la Cartuja) and draws attention to the idea of \u200b\u200busing a carp inflatable how heating systems and the possibility (under study) to dispute the evidence of struggle in the Roman Amphitheater of Italica (perhaps recalling the Gymnastics events in Rome 60 at the Baths of Caracalla and control in the Basilica of Maxentius, although not cited sources the idea) ...
The repeated idea (and will be a constant Rojas-Marcos until his retirement from politics, precisely in 2004) is compared with Barcelona 92: "Our games would cost ten times less than those of Barcelona," we've got almost everything done, "they forgot to point out that if many works were made by the investment was received in 1992, not better management of public assets or by Holy Spirit.

The Support Committee candidacies, and many mayors and mayors ex -Andalusian, Archbishop Carlos Amigo, the Duchess of Alba and Brother Lieutenant of the Royal Cavalry of Sevilla , the Marquis de Caltojar ... topics on the Andalusian hospitality or the magic of Sevilla flood the book.

Unfortunately none of them was enough for Sevilla 2004 will cut the IOC , Seville was the first nomination was in hand with Istanbul, Lille , San Petersburg, San Juan and Rio of Janeiro. The shortcomings in hotel rooms, in urban transport and sports facilities too weighed down level. In the final vote
Athens beat Rome, Stockholm , Cape Town and Buenos Aires.

The legacy he left Sevilla bid 2004 is the (misnamed) Cartuja Olympic Stadium, which opened in 1999 for World Athletics Championships at a cost of 120 million euros and is considered today as one of the best examples of "white elephant" that is, expensive and spectacular facility that serves no purpose, since it has gotten Betis Sevilla and play there (only to have a great stadium in the city if you can have three), nor heeded Samaranch who often warned of the risk of running track (why imitates nobody Saint Denis and retractable landing?) and then could not give value to the stadium ...

needless to say I think that moment was known Sevilla eliminating 2004, there was talk of Seville 2008 ...


SEVILLA 2008



After being dismissed in March 1997 as a finalist in the 2004 race, Marcos Rojas was quick to proclaim a candidate for the 2008 to the Andalusian capital. Fear (well founded) to Madrid will add to the race and some "flight forward" cemented the new application, even with fewer options than the previous one, because after Athens 2004, it was difficult to return to Europe and even further Southern Europe.
In fact since 1993 the mayor (born in Seville, by the way) Madrid, Alvarez del Manzano, Madrid's bid was suggesting the games and only a misplaced chivalry that candidacy delayed until 2012 after two ridiculous Seville. How correctly once said Samaranch if Madrid had been a candidate in 2008 might have had a few more votes in 2012 ... but the reality is that since Madrid was very patient and very classy about Seville and applications to the elimination of Sevilla 2008 September 2000 were not launched into the ring.

Sevilla's candidacy 2008 was a repeat of Sevilla 2004 with some minor changes and the same shortcomings (especially in hotel rooms and transport), talked about how to meet new football stadium Sanchez Pizjuan and split in two for macropabellones volleyball and basketball (years after would something like this in La Cartuja to host the final of the Davis Cup ) or compete in equestrian Jerez de la Frontera ... Moreover, as usual, four Olympic zones in Sevilla , many installation planned and few realities, ( only the brand new and little-used stadium of La Cartuja, of the World Athletics Championships 1999) and three villages planned: sports, for journalists and judges and arbitrators (the latter located in the troubled neighborhood of "Three Thousand Homes").
The IOC evaluation was tough, especially in transportation and hotel accommodations (provided is 22,000, compared to a minimum of 42,000 applied) and unceremoniously cut bid with Bangkok, Havana, The Cairo and Kuala Lumpur . In the final vote Beijing beat Toronto , Paris, Istanbul and Osaka .

Far from self-criticism reaction promoters 2008 in Seville Mayor Alfredo Sanchez Monteseirín, Alejandro Rojas-Marcos and Alfredo Seoane to the head, was total anger and attacks against the IOC against the central government and Madrid and aspirations: "I am not present. Do not dare to compete with Sevilla .'d all lose. We will not leave the chair to anyone ..." or "Beware of Madrid, you'll want to take advantage of what happened to slip. The PP has always wanted to be colase ..." demagoguery in spurts and denial " Sevilla Olympic forever and will continue to aspire to host the Olympics. It is proven that the race is providing benefits to the city. "
False Sevilla could not hold a Olympics for very clearly spelled out by the IOC : small town with traffic problems and public transport, small airport lack of hotel rooms, lack of class sporting facilities, etc ... insist was wasting public money, deceive people, shut out the English candidate realistic (Madrid), but obviously the headlong demagoguery are the north of many politicians and it took a big political debate and a vote of COE to Madrid was the English candidate in 2012 and Seville stay on the road ...

Write A Holographic Will

Seville Spain finally win the European Championship! Leonardo de Figueroa

Once again, for the fourth straight year, I write again elated by the good game of English basketball.

The seventh time lucky, and finally, after losing 6 finals throughout history (1935, 1973, 1983, 1999, 2003 and 2007), Spain has won its first Eurobasket.

The latest results of the selection in Eastern Europe speak for themselves:
66-86 to France in the quarter-finals 82-64 to Greece in the semifinals, and 85 - 63 Serbia in the final.

The success of selection in the last 10 years, too:
- 5 th in the Eurobasket 1997,
- 5 º in the 1998 World
- Plata in the Eurobasket 1999,
- 9 th in 2000 Olympic Games
- Bronze Eurobasket 2001
- 5 th in the world , 2002
- Plata in the Eurobasket 2003,

Surely the name of Leonardo de Figueroa (Utiel (Valencia) h. 1650 - Sevilla 1730), do not say anything.
Not even if Sevilla is like me.

For this man think it could be considered along with Anibal Gonzalez, the most famous architect of the city of Seville.

His works include:
- The Hospital of the Venerable priests

- Church of Santa Maria Magdalena

- Church of the Savior

- Church of St. Louis of the French

- Cloister of the former convent Merced, now Museum of Fine Arts in Seville

- Chapel sacramental of the church of Santa Catalina

- San Telmo Palace (now headquarters of the Junta de Andalucía)

- Charity Hospital


This man has a street dedicated to him naturally. It is a very small street parallel to the Avenida de Andalucia, almost opposite the shopping center arches. " A street that nobody knows, as the story of the architect as beautiful works.

This is how the city recognizes the figure of this man.
However, the figure of other personalities born in Sevilla, as Pilar Bardem, is in the process of having his name on a street in the city, despite having done absolutely nothing for Sevilla, although much of the party which proposed, which wants to remove the name of a general war of Cuba citing the law of historical memory to do so. From my point of view, totally embarrassing.

Dell No Webcam Detected



The other day, thanks to the conversation with a friend I realized as it has evolved over the corporate image of the beer Cruzcampo .

Gambrinus has gone from this:


This:


Gambrinus is increasingly skinny.

seems that the company has not wanted his mark can be associated with the famous "beer belly" which for years has been synonymous with happiness. So
also seen in its advertising (which apart from the new, thin Gambrinus, you are only good @ s @ s on the beach ...):

Within a few years, as I read in other blogs, the image of Gambrinus may end up in this (ironically of course):


I personally stick with the Gambrinus the whole life with his extra pounds (and of course, I prefer the Cruzcampo before with other brands like "mahou" or "San Miguel").

But from what I see, this is not the only case of corporate image that gets thinner with age, the Michelin doll can vouch for that too:
