    <content type="html"><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.sfetcu.com/sites/default/files/images/Beijing_smog_comparison_August_2005.jpg" alt="Beijing smog comparison August 2005" title="Beijing smog comparison August 2005" class="image image-preview" width="468" height="176" longdesc="Beijing air on a day after rain (left) and a sunny, smoggy day (right): Severe air pollution in Beijing is a major risk for athletes' health and a setback to their performance." /></p>
<h3><span class="mw-headline">Air pollution concerns</span></h3>
<p>Concern has been raised over the air quality of Beijing and its potential  effect on the athletes. Although the Beijing Municipal Government, in its bid  file in 2001, committed to lowering air pollution, increasing environmental  protection, and introducing environmental technology, research data show that  even if the city were to dramatically cut down its emissions, pollution would  still drift over from neighboring provinces, from which 50 percent of Beijing's  air is believed to originate. At current levels, air pollution is at least 2 to  3 times higher than levels deemed safe by the World Health Organization. Marco  Cardinale of the British Olympic Association has stated that air pollution  coupled with heat and humidity makes it &quot;very unlikely we'll see outstanding  performances in endurance sports.&quot; Despite this, Beijing committed to remove  60,000 taxis and buses from the roads by the end of 2007 and relocate 200 local  factories, including a prominent steel factory, before the games begin. The  Chinese government has provided assurances that &quot;blue skies are a requirement  not only for Beijing, but also for the places around it.&quot; The United States  Olympic Committee has also expressed its assurance that the air quality of  Beijing will not be a concern for the U.S. delegation to the games.  Nevertheless, the IOC's medical commission recently analyzed air-quality data  recorded by the Beijing Environment Protection Bureau in August, when test  athletic events were held in the Chinese capital. The commission found that  outdoor endurance events -- defined as those that include at least an hour of  continuous, high-intensity physical effort -- may pose some risk.</p>
<p>In spite of such efforts, several countries have indicated that their  athletes will arrive at the games as late as possible to limit exposure to  pollution. Many teams have set up offshore training camps in Japan and South  Korea to avoid the pollution.</p>
<p>In early July, Beijing ordered 40 factories in Tianjin and 300 factories in  Tangshan, two cities close to the capital, to begin suspending operations in an  effort to reduce air pollution. A major temporary air pollution control plan  began on July 20, that included shutting additional factories as well as using  odd-even license plate restrictions that limited Beijing motorists to driving on  alternate days, depending on whether the last number on their license plate is  odd or even, in order to reduce daily traffic by two million vehicles. Despite  the program, by July 28 the <i>China Daily</i> reported that Beijing's skies  remained alarmingly polluted and that authorities are considering emergency  measures during the Games.</p>

<h3><span class="mw-headline">Weather forecasting</span></h3>
<p>Meteorological findings in April 2007 also have suggested that, based on  rainfall data from the past 30 years, there is a 50 percent chance of rain for  the opening and closing ceremonies of the games. To combat the chance of poor  weather, Beijing officials plan to seed clouds to induce rain several days  before the games begin by shooting thousands of silver iodide pellets into the  air using ground-based rockets. While the effectiveness of this method is  questionable, Beijing is optimistic that it will reduce the chance of rainfall  during the games, and planned to carry out several tests as a practice in the  summer of 2007, one year before the games begin. Officials have also stated that  inducing rain should also remove some of the pollution from the air.</p>
<h3><span class="mw-headline">Water and drought history</span></h3>
<p>The water coming out of the water plants is safe, according to Bi Xiaogang of  the Beijing Water Management Bureau. The process of transporting the water  throughout the city is what contaminates it. Beijing is suffering from a drought  of 15 years as well as a lack of major fresh water sources elsewhere, so many  locals drink bottled water instead of that from the tap. Officials of the city  water authority have ensured, however, that &quot;the safety and efficiency of the  water system&quot; will be maintained and that the recycled water supplied to the  Olympic Village will be as clean as tap water.</p>
<p>Following recent scares regarding the safety of food products manufactured in  China, the United States Olympic Committee has decided to import food for its  athletes. In particular, athletes were concerned that eating meat that was  raised in China could contain enough steroids to cause the athletes to test  positive for steroid use. The United States Olympic Committee's plan to bring  its own food to China has disappointed the leader of food services for the  Beijing Olympics. Several Canadian athletes have received permission to do the  same.</p>
<h3><span class="mw-headline">Algal bloom</span></h3>
<p>With less than six weeks before it plays host to the Olympic sailing regatta,  the city of Qingdao has mobilized thousands of people and an armada of small  boats to clean up an algae bloom, the result of a red tide, that is choking  large stretches of the coastline and threatening to impede the Olympic  competition. Approximately one third of the waters where Olympic events are  supposed to take place are affected; this has prompted China to mobilize 20,000  people to clean up and the state media reported that 100,000 tons of algae had  already been taken out of the water. Much of it was being transported to farms  as feed for pigs and other animals, according to news reports. Officials claim  that poor water quality is &quot;not a substantial&quot; link to the current bloom. And by  the time of the start of the sailing races in Qingdao ,the algae had been  cleaned up.</p>
<h3><span class="mw-headline">Locust prevention</span></h3>
<p>More than 33,000 exterminators have been dispatched to battle a locust  infestation in northern China. Under the plan, some 200 tonnes of pesticides,  100,000 sprayers and four airplanes are being used to kill the pests.</p>
<h3><span class="mw-headline">Oil slick</span></h3>
<p>A 2&nbsp;km&sup2; (0.77&nbsp;sq&nbsp;mi) oil slick was discovered off the coast of Qingdao.  Officials said that the oil would not affect Olympic sailing. The oil slick was  discovered around mid-August(19/8/2008).</p>

<p>The <b>2008 Summer Olympics Opening Ceremony</b> will be held at the Beijing  National Stadium. It is scheduled to begin at 08:08:08pm<a href="http://www.timeanddate.com/counters/customcounter.html?month=8&amp;day=8&amp;year=2008&amp;hour=20&amp;min=0&amp;sec=0&amp;p0=33" rel="nofollow" title="http://www.timeanddate.com/counters/customcounter.html?month=8&amp;day=8&amp;year=2008&amp;hour=20&amp;min=0&amp;sec=0&amp;p0=33" class="external autonumber">[2]</a>  CST (12:08:08 UTC) on 8 August 2008.The number 8 is associated with prosperity  and confidence in Chinese culture.</p>
<p>National teams will not enter in Latin alphabetical order, but in stroke  count with the Simplified Chinese characters. For example, this will place  Australia (澳大利亚) in 203rd position, just ahead of Zambia (赞比亚) because the  character 澳 is written in 15 strokes and 赞 is in 16 strokes, while Italy will  perform as 191st nation. Stroke count order is a traditional method to order  names and other things.</p>
<p>The South Korean Seoul Broadcasting System (SBS) leaked parts of the opening  ceremony through secret shooting, disregarding the prohibition of the Organising  Committee. The video was uploaded at YouTube on  July 30, 2008, but had been deleted soon after its upload.  However, several other videos are uploaded by many users.</p>
<h2><span class="mw-headline">Producers</span></h2>
<p>Organizers of the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games chose famed Chinese film maker  Zhang Yimou and Zhang Jigang as co-directors of the opening and closing  ceremonies. In 2006 the Beijing Organizing Committee (BOCOG) initially chose  American film maker Steven Spielberg, Yves Pepin, head of the French  entertainment group ECA2, and Sydney Games opening ceremony director Ric Birch  as special consultants.  In February 2008, Spielberg pulled out of his role as advisor in protest over  China&rsquo;s continuing support of the Sudanese government and the escalating  violence in the Darfur region.</p>
<h2><span class="mw-headline">Performers</span></h2>
<p>It has been announced that Canada's Celine Dion and Taiwan's Jay Chou  would perform during the opening ceremony.</p>
<p>Gillian Chung was originally scheduled to be a performer at the opening  ceremony. Due to the Edison Chen photo scandal, director Zhang Yimou had  replaced her and another Hong Kong star (not involved in the photo incident)  with PRC C-pop act A-One.</p>
<p>A troupe of over a hundred Indigenous Taiwanese dancers travelling from Taiwan, and refered to by Xinhua as &quot;ethnic Taiwanese compatriots&quot;, will also perform at the opening  ceremony.</p>
<h2><span class="mw-headline">Boycott</span></h2>
<p>The idea of a boycott of the opening ceremony has been promoted by protesters  and discussed by a number of heads of state. Most notably, French President  Nicolas Sarkozy raised the possibility that he might not attend in protest over  the treatment of Tibetan protesters, but on 4 July 2008, he announced he would  attend. George W. Bush had announced the previous day that he would be  attending, and Japanese Prime Minister Yasuo Fukuda has also declared he will  attend. Leaders from a few other countries, including Estonia, Poland, Austria  and the Czech Republic have declared they will be participating in a boycott of  the opening ceremony. Others, like Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper and  British Prime Minister Gordon Brown, have announced that, although they will not be attending the  ceremony, their decision is not related to politics and they are not  participating in any boycott.</p>

<h2><span class="mw-headline">Symbols</span></h2>
<h3><img height="468" width="94" align="left" class="image image-preview" title="Beijing Mascots" alt="Beijing Mascots" src="http://www.sfetcu.com/sites/default/files/images/Friendlies_All.preview.jpg" /><span class="mw-headline">Emblem</span></h3>
<p>The 2008 Summer Olympics emblem is known as Dancing Beijing (simplified  Chinese: 舞动的北京) designed by Guo Chunning. The emblem combines a traditional  Chinese red seal and a representation of the calligraphic character <i>jīng</i>  (京, &quot;national capital&quot;, also the second character of Beijing's Chinese name)  with athletic features. The open arms of the calligraphic word symbolizes the  invitation of China to the world to share in its culture. IOC president Jacques  Rogge was very happy with the emblem, saying, &quot;Your new emblem immediately  conveys the awesome beauty and power of China which are embodied in your  heritage and your people.&quot;</p>
<h3><span class="mw-headline">Slogan</span></h3>
<p>The slogan for the 2008 Olympics is &quot;<i>One World, One Dream</i>&quot; (simplified  Chinese: <span lang="zh-Hans" xml:lang="zh-Hans">同一个世界 同一个梦想</span>; traditional  Chinese: <span lang="zh-Hant" xml:lang="zh-Hant">同一個世界 同一個夢想</span>; pinyin:  T&oacute;ng Y&iacute;ge Sh&igrave;ji&egrave; T&oacute;ng Y&iacute;ge M&egrave;ngxiǎng.) The slogan calls upon the whole world to  join in the Olympic spirit and build a better future for humanity. It was chosen  from over 210,000 entries submitted from around the world.</p>
<h3><span class="mw-headline">Mascot</span></h3>
<p>The official 2008 Olympic Mascots are the five Fuwa (simplified Chinese: 福娃,  literally &quot;good luck dolls&quot;). The Fuwa consist of five members that incorporate  fish, giant panda, fire, Tibetan antelope, and swallow designs. The Fuwa each  have as their primary color one of the colors of the five Olympic Rings that  stand for the five continents. The five Fuwa are named Beibei, Jingjing,  Huanhuan, Yingying, and Nini. When the first syllable of each of the five names  are said together, the result is the phrase 北京欢迎你 (Běijīng huāny&iacute;ng nĭ) which  means &quot;<i>Beijing welcomes you</i>&quot;.</p>
<h2><span class="mw-headline">Tickets</span></h2>
<p>In April 2007, over seven million tickets for sporting events and ceremonies  went on sale. Approximately 75% of tickets went on sale through the Beijing  Organizing Committee, which set low ticket prices for domestic tickets, to  encourage the Chinese people to attend the Games. International tickets are  available through each nation's NOC. By June 2007, 2.2 million tickets had  already been sold. The last round of some 250,000 tickets were on sale in  Beijing on July 25, 2008. Long lines were formed the day before at the ticket  office including many who slept overnight. Another 570,000 tickets for football  matches are up for grabs in co-host cities just weeks before the opening.</p>
<h2><span class="mw-headline">Merchandising</span></h2>
<p><img height="314" width="468" class="image image-preview" title="Stores selling merchandise" alt="Stores selling merchandise" src="http://www.sfetcu.com/sites/default/files/images/2008OlympicStuff.jpg" /> <i>Stores selling merchandise</i></p>
<p>Since early 2007, licensed Olympics merchandise stores have been in business  throughout China. More than 800 official stores were in operation at the end of  July 2007. Since August 2007, Olympic merchandise has been made available  online, with more than 5000 products available via the official merchandising  website, which include apparel, mascot dolls, key-chains and commemorative  chopsticks. In November 2007, the overseas Olympic E-shop provided online access  to customers all over the world to Licensed Products of Beijing 2008 Olympic  Games, excluding the USA, Japan, UK, Canada and China.</p>
<h2><span class="mw-headline">Bank notes</span></h2>
<p>The China's central bank issued a new 10-yuan note without the picture of Mao  Zedong featuring a Greek discus thrower and the the Bird's Nest.[12][13] A total  of 6 million notes were released at 10 yuan (US$1.46). Another 4 million notes  were released in Hong Kong as a special-edition note at HK$20 (US$2.56) before  the official release on July 15, 2008. Of the 4 million notes, 3.76 million of  them were sold in Hong Kong, with the remainder sold to Macau and the overseas  community, ranging from HK$138 to HK$1,338. Thousands of people formed long  lines outside the Hong Kong Bank of China branch, more than 48 hours before the  notes were issued.</p>
<h2><span class="mw-headline">Music</span></h2>
<h3><span class="mw-headline">Theme songs</span></h3>
<p>The official song for the game's one-year countdown celebration was <i>&quot;We  Are Ready&quot;</i>. The song was sung by an ensemble of 133 artists from Hong Kong,  Taiwan, and mainland China. The song is composed by Hong Kong songwriter Peter  Kam (金培達) with lyrics by Keith Chen (陳少琪).

<h3><span class="mw-headline">Torch relay songs</span></h3>
<p>The official theme for the torch relay was <i>&quot;Light the Passion, Share the  Dream&quot;</i>, with the English version performed by the 106 contestants of Miss  World 2007. Another song to accompany the relay is &quot;Red around the world&quot;  composed by Wyman Wong with lyrics by Albert Leung. The song also happens to be  the new Coca cola promotional song. Individual versions are available for  different artists such as Jacky Cheung, S.H.E, Wilber Pan.</p>
