The 2014 Winter Olympics , officially known as the XXII Olympic Winter Games ( French : Les XXIIes Jeux olympiques d'hiver ), is a major international multi-sport event being held in Sochi , Russia in the tradition of the Winter Olympic Games . Scheduled for 7–23 February 2014, opening rounds in certain events were held on the eve of the Opening Ceremony , 6 February 2014. Both the Olympics and 2014 Winter Paralympics are being organized by the Sochi Organizing Committee (SOC). Sochi was selected as the host city in July 2007, during the 119th IOC Session held in Guatemala City . It is the first Olympics in Russia since the breakup of the USSR in 1991.

In preparation , organizers focused on modernizing the telecommunications , electric power , and transportation infrastructures of the region . While originally budgeted at US$ 12 billion , various factors caused the budget to expand to over US$51 billion , surpassing the estimated $44 billion cost of the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing as the most expensive Olympics in history .

Слайд 4

The lead-up to the 2014 Games was marked by major controversies , including allegations of corruption leading to the aforementioned cost overruns , concerns for the safety and human rights of lesbian , gay , bisexual and transgender ( LGBT ) athletes and supporters during the Games due to the country's recent anti-LGBT policies , which led to ongoing Olympic-focussed protests of the laws and its effects , protests by ethnic Circassian activists over the site of Sochi ( the site of what they consider to be a genocide ) and various security concerns over threats by jihadist groups tied to the insurgency in the North Caucasus .

Слайд 5

Sochi was elected on 4 July 2007 during the 119th International Olympic Committee (IOC) session held in Guatemala City , Guatemala , defeating bids from Salzburg , Austria , and Pyeongchang , South Korea . [3] This is the first time that the Russian Federation has hosted the Winter Olympics . The Soviet Union was the host of the 1980 Summer Olympics held in and around Moscow .

Слайд 6

According to Sochi 2014 Olympic and Paralympic Organizing Committee President and CEO Dmitry Chernyshenko , partnership and commercial programs allowed the use of funds generated by Sochi 2014 for the 2009–10 development period , postponing the need for the state funds guaranteed by the Russian Government . He confirmed that the Organizing Committee had raised more than $500 million through marketing in the first five months of 2009. [8] The Russian Government provided nearly 327 billion rubles ( about US$10 billion ) for the total development , expansion and hosting of the Games . [9] 192 billion rubles (US$6 billion ) coming from the federal budget and 7 billion rubles (US$218 million ) from the Krasnodar Krai budget and from the Sochi budget . The organizers expect to have a surplus of US$300 million when the Games conclude . [10]

Слайд 7

With an average February temperature of 8.3 °C (42.8 °F) and a humid subtropical climate , Sochi is the warmest city to host a Winter Olympic Games . [12] Sochi 2014 is the 12th straight Olympics to outlaw smoking ; all Sochi venues , Olympic Park bars and restaurants and public areas are smoke-free during the Games . [13] It is also the first time that an Olympic Park has been built for hosting a winter games .

Слайд 8

Sochi Olympic Park (Coastal Cluster) The Sochi Olympic Park was built by the Black Sea coast in the Imeretin Valley , about 4 km (2.5 miles ) from Russia's border with Georgia . [14] [15] The venues are clustered around a central water basin on which the Medals Plaza is built , allowing all indoor venues to be within walking distance . The new venues include : [16] Fisht Olympic Stadium – ceremonies ( opening / closing ) 40,000 spectators Bolshoy Ice Dome – ice hockey ( final ), 12,000 spectators Shayba Arena – ice hockey , 7,000 spectators Adler Arena Skating Center – speed skating , 8,000 spectators Iceberg Skating Palace – figure skating , short track speed skating , 12,000 spectators Ice Cube Curling Center – curling , 3,000 spectators Main Olympic village International broadcasting centre and main press room

Tentative post-Olympic usage After the Olympics , a Formula One street circuit is planned for the site . The deal to hold the Russian Grand Prix was signed on 14 October 2010, and runs from 2014 to 2020. [17] The first race will take place after the Closing Ceremony of the Games , and the IOC has announced that the race will be delayed until 2015 if construction of the circuit interferes with preparations for the 2014 Olympics . [18]

Слайд 10

Logo and branding The emblem of the 2014 Winter Olympics , unveiled in December 2009, carries a minimalistic style , and unlike previous Olympic emblems , consists of typefaces with no drawn elements at all . While more elaborate designs with influence from Khokhloma were considered , organizers eventually decided to use a simpler and more " futuristic " design instead . The " Sochi " and "2014" lettering is designed to mirror each other vertically ( particularly on the " hi " and "14" characters ), " reflecting " the contrasts of Russia's landscape ( such as Sochi itself , a meeting point between the Black Sea and the Western Caucasus ). [19] Critics , including Russian bloggers , panned the logo for being too simplistic and lacking any real symbolism ; Guo Chunning , designer of the 2008 Summer Olympics emblem Dancing Beijing , criticized the logo for its lack of detail , and believed it should have contained more elements that represented winter and Russia's national identity , aside from its blue color scheme and its use of . ru , the top-level domain of Russia . [19]

Слайд 11

The Games ' official slogan , " Hot.Cool.Yours ." (" Жаркие.Зимние.Твои ." in Russian ) was unveiled on September 25, 2012 to mark the 500-day milestone before the Opening Ceremony . Presenting the slogan , SOC president Dmitry Chernyshenko explained that it represented the " passion " of the Games ' athletes , the climate of Sochi itself , and a sense of inclusion and belonging . The Russian-language version of the slogan uses words that can be translated as " heated " and " wintry ", a more accurate reflection of Chernyshenko's explanation than the simpler terms used by the English slogan , which is intended to emphasize the " hot " coastal climate and " cool " mountain climate of the Games

Слайд 12

For the first time in Olympic history , a public vote was held to decide the mascots for the 2014 Winter Olympics ; the 10 finalists , along with the results , were unveiled during live specials on Channel One . On 26 February 2011, the official mascots were unveiled , consisting of a polar bear , a snow hare , and an snow leopard . The initial rounds consisted of online voting among submissions , while the final round involved text messaging . [22] [23] [24] A satirical mascot known as Zoich ( its name being an interpretation of the stylized "2014" lettering from the Games ' emblem as a cyrillic word ), a fuzzy blue frog with hypnotic multi-coloured rings ( sharing the colors of the Olympic rings ) on his eyeballs and the Imperial Crown (" to remind about statehood and spirituality "), proved popular in initial rounds of online voting , and became a local internet meme among Russians ( with some comparing it to Futurama 's " Hypnotoad "). Despite its popularity , Zoich did not qualify for the final round of voting , with its creator , political cartoonist Egor Zhgun , claiming that organizers were refusing to respect public opinion . However , it was later revealed that Zoich was deliberately planted by organizers to help virally promote the online mascot vote . [24] [25]

The Olympic infrastructure is being constructed according to a Federal Target Program (FTP). In June 2009 the Games ' organizers reported they are one year ahead in building the main Olympic facilities as compared to recent Olympic Games . [29] In November 2011 IOC President Jacques Rogge was in Sochi and concluded that the city has made significant progress since he last visited eighteen months earlier . [30] Telecommunications See also : Telecommunications in Russia According to the FTP, US$580 million would be spent on construction and modernization of telecommunications in the region . Avaya was named by the Sochi Organizing Committee as the official supplier of telecommunications equipment . Avaya provides the data network equipment , including switches , routers , security , telephones and contact-center systems . It provides engineers and technicians to design and test the systems , and works with other technology partners to provide athletes , dignitaries and fans information about the Games . [31] [32]

During the Games , the core networks of Rostelecom and Transtelekom are used . [35] In January 2012, the newest equipment for the television coverage of the Games arrived in the port of Adler . Prepared specifically for the Games , a team of regional specialists and the latest technology provide a qualitatively new level of television production in the region . [36] The fiber-optic channel links Sochi between Adler and Krasnaya Polyana . The 46-kilometre-long (29 mi ) channel enables videoconferencing and news reporting from the Olympics . [37] In November 2013, it was reported that the fiber-optic cable that was built by the Federal Communications Agency , Rossvyaz , had no operator . With Rostelecom and Megafon both refusing to operate it , the line was transferred to the ownership of the state enterprise Center of the IT world ( Russian : Центр МИР ИТ). [38]

Слайд 17

Russian mobile phone operator Megafon expanded and improved Sochi's telecom infrastructure with over 700 new 2G/3G/4G cell towers . Sochi is the first Games to offer 4G connectivity at a speed of 10 MB/ sec . It has started to provide content delivery services to Russian state television and radio . The content delivery network of Megafon unites servers located in the major cities of Russia , into a single infrastructure that can speed up information from the Internet for users . CDN service allows major media companies to provide users quick access to content without interruption and delays when transferring large amounts of data . The Russian segment of the bandwidth of the CDN- network of MegaFon is about 250 Gbit / s . [39] MTS provide full coverage of the Sochi and the Krasnodar Territory , with network capacity doubled . In preparation for the Olympics , Tele2 Russia increased the number of base stations in Sochi and Krasnaya Polyana by 15% and the network capacity up to 70%, and provides 100% coverage of the Olympic facilities in the mountain cluster . [40]

Слайд 18

Rostelecom also built LTE 4th generation network . It covers an area of 40 km2 (15 sq mi ) in the mountains and 50 km2 in the coastal clusters . The 4th generation is available in all major Olympic venues in the Imereti lowland and mountain cluster , as well as Sochi airport and in the Olympic Park . [41] The Russian Ministry of Communications , together with mobile operators organized internetwork roaming at Olympic venues . This measure allows subscribers access to the largest Russian operators at their standard fare to use the network of MegaFon , which has the exclusive right to work at Olympic venues . Russian Television and Radio Broadcasting Network (RTRS), the state operator of Russia's extensive broadcasting infrastructure , commissioned three mobile digital television broadcasting complexes . Mobile systems can broadcast a signal to a radius of about 30 km (19 miles ), depending on terrain . They are used as a backup transmitter , two multiplexes and two FM-radio stations in the event of a fault or power failure in fixed installations , as well as for the organization of video play-out . [42]
