WASHINGTON air max 97 uk , Sept. 14 (Xinhua) -- Officials and sports experts in Salt Lake City and Denver have begun discussing the possibility of bidding to host the 2026 Winter Olympics, local media reported recently.
According to Salt Lake Tribune and Denver Post Nike Air Max Thea Women's Pink White UK , internal discussions on a bid for Olympics in both cities have been conducted although no country has hosted back to back games since World War II.
But the hope is that the International Olympic Committee (IOC) is ready to change the rules as they confirmed Paris and Los Angeles as the Summer Olympics host cities for 2024 and 2028 at the same time on Wednesday.
Salt Lake City hosted the 2002 Winter Games and has kept the infrastructure built for those games in great shape. It's the current home of the US ski and snowboard teams and is home to the main US speed skating and cross country skiing training facilities.
"We stand ready, willing and able when the time is right for the US to host a Winter Olympics Cheap Air Max Thea Black White Shoes UK ," Colin Hinton, president of Utah Olympic Legacy Foundation Men's Nike Air Max 2018.5 Black UK , was quoted as saying by Salt Lake Tribune.
"From my perspective, I will try and make the area the world's premier winter sports training and event destination. One day Men's Nike Air Max 90 KJCRD ICE QS Black Grey Red UK , if we do all that well, logic would say that a Games should come back here Women's Air Max 90 Zoom IT Golf Black White Infrared ," Hinton added.
"If you have two American bids going on at the same time in the sponsorship world and negotiating certain things, it certainly would take some effort to figure out how to mitigate that so everyone is happy Women's Air Max 90 Woven Light Pink UK ," said Utah Sports Commission president Jeff Robbins.
"But I think you never would've seen Pyeongchang, Tokyo and Beijing back-to-back-to-back ever historically. We know that the mold's been broken Women's Air Max 90 Premium SE Pink White UK ," he continued.
Denver is the only city to be awarded an Olympics, but decide to give up due to public outcry ahead of the 1976 Winter Games.
Denver is a larger city than Salt Lake and has comparable infrastructure. Denver's main drawbacks are that the closest mountain is about an hour west of the city and speedskating and ski jumping venues would all need to be built.

VIENNA， Sept. 12 (Xinhua) -- Austria's political parties have agreed that the re-run of the 2016 Austrian presidential election will be held on Dec. 4， a spokesperson of Austrian People's Party (OVP) told Xinhua on Monday.
The spokesperson said all parties in the Austrian parliament agreed on the date of the presidential vote.
The country's interior minister earlier the day said the president election is likely to be held on Nov. 27 or Dec. 4， as the faulty seals on ballot papers are not resolved yet.
Although the minister said himself would prefer Nov. 27， as there will be fewer festivals at the time， parties in the parliament agreed on Dec. 4， probably buying time for the legislation concerning the amendment of the electoral law.
The decision has not been officially announced by the government， with the interior ministry saying time is still needed.
The parliament would soon convene to work on the electoral law this week.
Austria's Constitutional Court overturned the results of the country presidential election earlier this year， citing irregularities of the postal ballots. The postal cards played an important role in the vote， helping the independent candidate Alexander Van Der Bellen beat the right-wing Freedom Party (FPO) candidate Norbert Hofer.
Hofer lost the vote to Van Der Bellen by less than one percentage point， and the FPO challenged the result of the vote.
KIGALI， Sept. 18 (Xinhua) -- With no hope of returning to their country soon， Burundians who have spent more than a year living at Rwanda's largest refugee camp， Mahama， are offered to continue with education at Rwanda's higher learning institutions.
Close to 260 Burundi students who fled their country after finishing high schools， and others who were at the university at the time， have already started English lessons to cope up with university and tertiary education in Rwanda， according to Jean Claude Ciza， president of the association of refugee students at Mahama refugee camp in Bugesera district， Eastern Province.
"The government of Rwanda， in partnership with UNHCR， is supporting us to resume our education here in Rwanda. We want to continue with studies and， we are lucky to get an opportunity to study in the Rwandan universities，" Ciza told reporters Saturday at Mahama refugee camp.
He added that they have been facilitated to get school basic necessities such as clothes， mattresses， soaps， beddings， shoes and scholastic materials among others.
Burundians refugees fled their country in April 2015 since President Pierre Nkurunziza announced plans to run for a third term， which he went on to win despite protests from opposition.
"Refugees can face many barriers to accessing higher education， including a lack of information， advice and individual guidance sensitive to their specific needs. We are supporting Burundian refugees and other refugees in Rwanda to access quality education，" said Seraphine Mukantabana， Rwanda minister of Disaster Management and Refugee Affairs.
"We are committed to ensure that all refugee students with a merit are given chance to access university education， and we have initiated a move， with the support of UNHCR，" she added.
Mukantabana said that with the help of UNHCR and donors， they will continue to .
