Culture @ the Olympics Calendar

Andy Miah and I started last month an online public calendar. Our intention is to put here all the conferences, call for papers, colloquiums, presentations, round tables and so on and give researchers and not only an opportunity to keep track of what is going on the academic world. As such, if you know of any such event and you would like it to be put on our calendar and sent to our friends, peers and contacts, feel free to contact me. And, happy visiting both the Calendar and the Culture @ the Olympics website!

Olympic ad

I found this ad today after jumping from one blog to another. It is the first of four such ads that TWBAChina and Stink created for Adidas and the 2008 Olympic Games. You can find here and here two slightly different versions of the same concept which heavily emphasizes the support of the great/ numerous Chinese people. Interesting!
