BEIJING ECCO Jeremy Hybrid Tie Black Moonless Ireland , July 27 (Xinhuanet) -- With
only four days before the 2022 Winter Olympics host city is chosen, the Beijing
bid committee has reiterated that the Chinese capital would be an ideal host for
the winter sports gala based on its advantages in facilities and experience.
The host of the 2008 Summer Olympics, Beijing has the key elements in place to stage highly successful Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games in 2022, with

Saturday to prepare for the final presentation to IOC members and the subsequent
vote.
Wang, whose team includes former basketball star Yao Ming and retired freestyle skiing world champion Li Nina, said Beijing's assured delivery of the
Olympic Games and its huge winter sports potential make the Chinese capital an
appealing candidate to the world.
"We are convinced that there are multiple reasons why Beijing would be the ideal ECCO

sustainable and economical choice for the 2022 Olympic and Paralympic Winter
Games. We have put together a strong team to present this message once again in
the finish line," he said.

co-host Zhangjiakou in neighboring Hebei province-complies with the Olympic 2020
Agenda, a plan for the future of the Games, by distributing winter sports
facilities to three markets while sharing their economic costs.
Wang Hui ECCO
Harold Derby Tie Coffee Ireland , deputy secretary-general and spokeswoman
for the Beijing bid committee, said: "The three-zone arrangement will make our
venues and facilities more accessible to larger groups of consumers while
accelerating winter sports related industries after the Games."
Under Beijing's bid plan, all the ice events would take place at five venues, including four existing ones from the 2008 Olympics in downtown Beijing. The
only new facility would be the National Speed Skating
Oval ECCO

speedskating competitions.
Snow sports would take place at the proposed National Alpine Ski Center and National Sliding Center, which would be developed into high-level training bases
and public skiing and tourism centers in the mountainous regions of Yanqing.
The rest of the skiing events would be held at the new Nordic and Biathlon Center as well as the refurnished Genting Snow Park in Zhangjiakou, which plans
to build on the 2022 legacy and further develop after the Games.

LONDON, May 20 (Xinhua) -- Around 300 leading figures from the artistic circle joined forces Friday to back Britain staying in the European Union (EU).
The cast of supporters include a number of Britain's best stage and screen actors, artists, musicians and writers. They warn that if Britons vote next
month to leave the EU it would leave Britain "an outsider shouting from the
wings."
Among the signatories who have signed a letter sent to the Britain Stronger in Europe campaign is actor Benedict Cumberbatch. Film stars Jude Law and Keira
Knightley have also signed.
Other famous stars adding their signatures include Sir Derek Jacobi, Helena Bonham Carter, Bill Nighy, Dame Kristen Scott-Thomas, Mike Leigh, Sophie Okonedo
and Sir John Hurt.
Danny Boyle, the film director who masterminded the opening ceremony at the London Olympics in 2012, has also signed the letter pleading people vote 'yes'
to staying in Europe.
Their intervention, with just over a month before the June 23 referendum, follows pleas by world leaders and captains of industry who want Britain to
continue its membership of the 28-nation EU.
Their letter states: "From the smallest gallery to the biggest blockbuster, many of us have worked on projects that would never have happened without vital
EU funding or by collaborating across borders."
"Britain is not just stronger in Europe, it is more imaginative and more creative, and our global creative success would be severely weakened by walking
away."
"From the Bard to Bowie, British creativity inspires and influences the rest of the world. We believe that being part of the EU bolsters Britain's leading
role on the world stage."
It adds: "Leaving Europe would be a leap into the unknown for millions of people across the UK."
Britain's official poet laureate Carol Ann Duffy and master spy-thriller writer John le Carr have both signed.
The "Stronger In" campaign claims more than 2.2 million people are employed in Britain's creative industries and digital sector.
