What is the main objective of having The olympics? Answer:
This policy has two main objectives:
• it strives to promote Olympic Games which respect the environment and meet the standards of sustainable development.
• it also aims to promote awareness among and educate the members of the Olympic family and sports practitioners in general of the importance of a healthy environment and sustainable development.
It is based on the principles enshrined in the The Olympic Charter (Chapter 1, The Olympic Movement and its Actions: Mission and Role of the IOC):
• to encourage and support a responsible concern for environmental issues, to promote sustainable development in sport and require that the Olympic Games are held accordingly; and
• to promote a positive legacy from the Olympic Games to the Host cities and the Host countries.
The IOC policy also finds its roots and scope in the Olympic Movement's agenda 21 which is another major reference document in this field.
Knicks finally land Carmelo
The Denver Nuggets have finally completed their long-awaited trade to send Carmelo Anthony(notes) to the New York Knicks.
To acquire Anthony, the Knicks are sending Danilo Gallinari(notes), Raymond Felton(notes), Wilson Chandler(notes), the Knicks’ 2014 first-round pick, two second-round picks New York acquired from the Golden State Warriors in the David Lee sign-and-trade and $3 million. The Knicks will also trade Anthony Randolph(notes) andEddy Curry’s(notes) expiring contract to the Minnesota Timberwolves, who will send Corey Brewer(notes) to New York. The Knicks will receive Anthony, Chauncey Billups(notes), Shelden Williams(notes), Renaldo Balkman(notes) and Anthony Carter.
Not sure how great of a move this is going to be, You lose a lot for Melo who virtually plays the same position as Amar'e. Will this move force Melo to step up his outside game ?
Now looking more like Miami with a couple great players and no surrounding cast, does this make the Knicks a threat in the east??
