French Alps and Salt Lake City chosen for 2030 and 2034 Winter Olympics

Ahead of the Paris Summer Games this week, the International Olympic Committee has officially elected the French Alps and Salt Lake City to host the 2030 and 2034 Winter Olympics respectively. The Winter Games appointments mark the fourth time France has been selected, the fifth time the games will be held in the U.S., and a return to Utah after 32 years.

The two cities were reportedly the only candidates as the IOC struggled to find additional countries willing and able to host due to infrastructural and environmental requirements. With the opening ceremony for Winter Games at the French Alps just five and a half years away, it will be the shortest preparation time for any recent Olympics.

“I confirm the full commitment of the French nation, and assure you that I will ask the next Prime Minister to include not only this guarantee but also an Olympic Law in the priorities of the new government.

For 2030, France plans to host most of its events at the ski resorts in the Alps while other events such as figure skating will be held at venues in Nice. Meanwhile, in Utah, figure skating will be held at the Delta Center, the home of the NBA’s Utah Jazz, snowboarding events will be held in Park City, and skiing events will take place at Snowbasin Resort.

The campus of the University of Utah will serve as the Olympic Village. As introduced as part of their bid, Salt Lake City will be the first host city to offer an Athlete Family Village to host the relatives of the competitors.

“The Olympics and Paralympics represent so much more than competition,” Governor of Utah, Spencer Cox commented. “At its core, the Olympic Movement is about building community and celebrating excellence, things we do really well in Utah. More than 80 per cent of Utahns and 100 per cent of our elected leaders supported our Olympic bid. We’re ready to host another Olympic Winter Games, and we can’t wait to welcome the world back to Utah in 2034.”

Drag queens shine at Olympics opening, but ‘Last Supper’ tableau draws criticism

PARIS — In an unprecedented display of inclusivity, drag queens took center stage at the Paris Olympics opening ceremony, showcasing the vibrant and influential role of the French LGBTQ+ community — while also attracting criticism over a tableau reminiscent of “The Last Supper.”

Held along the Seine River, the spectacular four-hour event featured global stars such as Celine Dion and Lady Gaga, both considered queer icons. The ceremony blended historic and modern French culture with a touch of kitsch, culminating in a flotilla of barges carrying thousands of Olympians.

Nicky Doll, known for competing on the 12th season of “RuPaul’s Drag Race” and hosting “Drag Race France,” participated in a high-octane fashion runway segment along with “Drag Race France” Season 1 winner Paloma, Season 3’s Piche, and Giselle Palmer. Initially, they stood alongside the runway, gazing fiercely at the strutting models. Later, they joined in, showcasing their own style.

Le Filip, the recent winner of “Drag Race France,” expressed their positive “surprise” and “pride” at the ceremony’s scale and representation.

“I thought it would be a five-minute drag event with queer representation. I was amazed. It started with Lady Gaga, then we had drag queens, a huge rave, and a fire in the sky,” they said. “It felt like a crowning all over again. I am proud to see my friends and queer people on the world stage.”

Among their bold performances was a scene that seemed to evoke Leonardo da Vinci’s “The Last Supper,” featuring the drag queens and other performers in a configuration reminiscent of Jesus Christ and his apostles. This segment drew significant attention — and mixed reactions.

“The (French) government knows what it’s doing. They want to show themselves in the best way possible. They showed no restraints in expression,” Le Filip told The Associated Press.

On the other hand, prominent far-right politician Marion Maréchal denounced the performance on social media.

“To all the Christians of the world who are watching the Paris 2024 ceremony and felt insulted by this drag queen parody of the Last Supper, know that it is not France that is speaking but a left-wing minority ready for any provocation,” she posted on the social platform X, a sentiment that was echoed by religious conservatives internationally.

“… because decapitating Habsburgs and ridiculising central Christian events are really the FIRST two things that spring to mind when you think of #OlympicGames,” Eduard Habsburg, Hungary’s ambassador to the Vatican, posted on X, also referencing a scene depicting the beheading of Marie Antoinette.

Thomas Jolly, the artistic director of the opening ceremony, afterward drew attention away from “The Last Supper” references, saying that hadn’t been his intention.

Le Filip responded to the criticism of the scene with a touch of humor and sorrow.

“It feels like the words of somebody who didn’t get on the guest list. We could all be laughing together. It’s sad to me, honestly,” they said.

Inter-LGBT President James Leperlier was more circumspect, arguing that France still has significant strides to make in inclusivity.

“We know in the LGBTQ community in France we are far from what the ceremony showed. There’s much progress to do in society regarding transgender people. It’s terrible that to legally change their identity they are forced to be on trial,” Leperlier said.

He also highlighted the disparity in acceptance, saying that the community is not visible in other official ceremonies and “has difficulty being heard.”

“If you saw the opening ceremony last night you’d think it was like that normally, but it’s not. France tried to show what it should be and not what it is,” he said.

The opening ceremony came as drag and the voguing nightclub scene in France has experienced a revival. The cabaret club Madame Arthur, founded in 1946 in the ashes of World War II, is one of the world’s oldest continually running LGBTQ+ theaters. It opened as Europe was only just beginning to understand the extent of the widespread murder of members of the queer community in WWII and is currently experiencing a massive renaissance.

Drag is not just a pastime; for many minority French communities who feel alienated over tensions arising from divisive politics and scars from the anti-gay marriage protests a decade ago, it’s a statement of defiance. Many gay Black and Arab youths — especially those from Paris’ less affluent and religiously conservative suburbs — and others who feel a sense of disconnect with French society find voguing and drag events safe places where their identities can be expressed without fear of reprisal.

Despite the backlash, Le Filip believes the opening ceremony will ultimately transcend controversy.

“The message of the show is freedom, and it’s a good postcard for France,” they concluded.

Associated Press journalist John Leicester contributed reporting.

California date palm ranches reap not only fruit, but a permit to host weddings and quinceañeras

COACHELLA, Calif. (AP) — Claudia Lua Alvarado has staked her future on the rows of towering date palms behind the…

COACHELLA, Calif. (AP) — Claudia Lua Alvarado has staked her future on the rows of towering date palms behind the home where she lives with her husband and two children in a desert community east of Los Angeles.

It’s not solely due to the fleshy, sweet fruit they give each year. Their ample shade and the scenic backdrop they form draw scores of families seeking an event space to host celebrations ranging from weddings to quinceañeras, traditional coming-of-age events for girls’ 15th birthdays that are observed in Latin American cultures.

Lua Alvarado is one of several dozen owners of small ranches that produce dates and double as event venues catering to the Coachella Valley’s predominantly Latino community.

“This is what sells our property,” said Lua Alvarado, a 42-year-old fashion designer who bought the 8-acre (3.2-hectare) plot seven years ago. “It feels like we’re in Hawaii or some other tropical place.”

While the region is known for blistering heat and the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival that draws thousands of people each year, it’s also responsible for more than 80% of the country’s dates thanks to the arid climate and ample groundwater, according to the California Date Commission.

Most dates are grown by large-scale producers that also pack and ship the fruit. Lua Alvarado and other small producers harvest dates from their land and sell them to big producers, but that’s not enough to make ends meet.

Many have other jobs ranging from landscaping to horse training and run the ranches, or ranchos as they’re known in Spanish, as event venues providing large outdoor spaces for family gatherings at a more affordable price than posh hotels in the resort areas around Palm Springs.

Ranchos have existed for decades in the Coachella Valley and have grown in number along with the region’s population and a desire by many in the Latino community and others to host more events outdoors, especially since the coronavirus pandemic.

But the weekend parties began drawing complaints from some neighbors seeking rural quiet, which prompted local authorities to cite the venues for noise and code violations.

Mounting fines drove rancho owners to organize and seek special rules authorizing them to host private events — much like other properties do for concertgoers to the annual music festival — and keep their date palms thriving.

Riverside County’s board of supervisors voted in June for a plan that would allow ranchos at least 4.5 acres (1.8 hectares) in size that remain 40% dedicated to agriculture and 20% to dates to do so, and includes provisions for parking and safety.

V. Manuel Perez, a county supervisor, compared the plan to efforts to develop wine country in a nearby community known for grapevines and hot air balloon rides. He said it’s vital in a region home to Latino farmworkers and their children who want to celebrate family milestones and their culture on a budget.

About 70% of the area’s population is Latino and the median household income was $65,000 a year in 2022, about $20,000 less than in the county as a whole, U.S. Census Bureau data show.

“In 10 years, the Coachella Valley will be seen as date country,” said Perez, who recalled attending parties at ranchos as a child. “We felt this would be a unique way to ensure the success and the continuance — the further expansion if you will — of having something accessible, an event space that is accessible, that is affordable for people.”

Dates have been cultivated in the Coachella Valley for more than a century since offshoots were brought from the Middle East to see if they would grow in the Southern California desert due to similarities in climate. The valley is the top date-growing region in the country, and last year Riverside County had nearly 10,000 acres (4,046 hectares) of date palms that produced more than 38,000 tons (34,473 metric tons) of the fruit, according to the country agricultural commissioner’s office.

Mark Tadros, who hosts educational events and grows dates at Aziz Farms, said ranchos aren’t the biggest growers but when you calculate the fruit they sell to packing houses, it makes a difference. He plans to apply for the new permit for his 10-acre (4-hectare) farm and hopes that requiring landowners to devote a set share of their properties to the trees will encourage those who may not have enough date palms to plant more of them.

“I think the more people who have stake in this industry and in this game, the better off we’ll be,” Tadros said, adding he has seen many date growers get out of the business.

Carlos Ulloa has come to appreciate date palms after buying land seven years ago in Thousand Palms. His vision was to create a place where he could keep his horses and have a working ranch with lambs and peacocks while hosting events where families could have ample space to invite their relatives to a celebration without going broke.

Dates didn’t figure into the equation, so Ulloa had the prior landowner — a date farmer — take most of his 500 palms and leave only about 150 behind. Ulloa later learned that each tree sold for as much as $1,000. He enjoyed their shade so much that he’s now taking offshoots to grow more palms and repopulate his ranch with them, something he is especially eager to do since only date properties will qualify for the new permit.

Ulloa, who previously worked as a hotel event coordinator, said the ranchos fill a niche by allowing families to pay a few thousand dollars for an event and bring their own food or make decorations to cut costs, and they do so beautifully.

“We’re providing the opportunity to people that are not as well off to, you know, have their celebrations, and not just our celebrations, but to follow our traditions, because a quinceañera — it’s more Latino than no other,” he said.

Happy International Tiger Day: Inspiring speech, quotes and activities to protect tigers | Events News

Happy International Tiger Day: The rapidly advancing and globalizing world will unite once more to commemorate International Tiger Day on July 29, 2024. To ensure a secure and prosperous home for tigers, share these inspiring quotes, speeches, and activities.

Happy International Tiger Day: Inspiring speech, quotes and activities to protect tigers | Canva

New Delhi: On July 29, 2024, we will celebrate International Tiger Day, a day dedicated to raising awareness about the conservation of one of the most magnificent yet endangered species on our planet. The question that often arises in the minds of intellectuals and curious souls is, “Why is International Tiger Day celebrated on July 29?” The answer lies in the alarming reality that tigers were once on the verge of extinction. Hence, this day is observed globally to raise awareness about tiger conservation methods and to combat their declining numbers.

International Tiger Day 2024 seeks to preserve and enhance tiger ecosystems while increasing awareness of the critical issues that threaten their survival. These issues include habitat destruction, warming temperatures, hunting, and poaching. Habitat destruction, primarily due to deforestation and urbanization, has significantly reduced the natural habitat of tigers, forcing them into smaller and fragmented territories. Warming temperatures, a result of climate change, have also affected the ecosystems tigers rely on, disrupting their prey availability and natural behaviour.

Global Tiger Day 2024 will not only focus on these critical conservation issues but also aim to promote collaborative efforts to save tigers from extinction. Conservation organizations, governments, and local communities will come together to create and implement effective strategies to protect and restore tiger populations.

Here are some inspiring quotes, speeches, and activities to help raise awareness and contribute to the global effort to protect our wild kings.

International Tiger Day speech

Speech 1: The Importance of Tiger Conservation

Ladies and Gentlemen,

Today, we gather to celebrate International Tiger Day, a day dedicated to one of the most magnificent creatures on our planet. As we unite on this significant day, we are reminded of the critical role tigers play in our ecosystem and the urgent need to protect them.

Tigers are not just symbols of strength and beauty; they are essential to the health of our forests. As apex predators, they maintain the balance of our ecosystems by controlling the population of prey species. This balance is crucial for the well-being of our forests, which in turn support countless other species, including humans.

Sadly, the majestic tiger is an endangered species, with its population dwindling due to habitat destruction, climate change, poaching, and illegal wildlife trade. Forests are being cleared for agriculture, urbanization, and infrastructure, fragmenting the tiger’s habitat and reducing their territories. Climate change exacerbates these challenges, altering habitats and affecting prey availability.

Despite these challenges, there is hope. Conservation efforts around the world have shown that with collective action, we can make a difference. By protecting tiger habitats, enforcing anti-poaching laws, and promoting sustainable practices, we can create a safer environment for tigers to thrive.

On this International Tiger Day, let us renew our commitment to tiger conservation. Let us raise our voices to spread awareness, support conservation initiatives, and inspire others to join this crucial cause. Together, we can ensure that future generations will witness the beauty of tigers in the wild.

Thank you.

Speech 2: The Global Effort to Save Tigers

Distinguished Guests,

Today, we stand together on International Tiger Day to honor and protect one of nature’s most iconic creatures – the tiger. This day is a powerful reminder of our responsibility to safeguard these majestic animals and their habitats.

Tigers once roamed vast stretches of Asia, but today, their numbers have drastically declined. The primary threats they face include habitat loss, poaching, and human-wildlife conflict. As forests are destroyed for agriculture and development, tigers are forced into smaller, fragmented areas, making it harder for them to find food and mates.

The illegal wildlife trade is another grave threat. Tigers are hunted for their skins, bones, and other body parts, which are highly valued in traditional medicine and as status symbols. This illegal trade continues to thrive despite international bans, posing a significant threat to tiger populations.

However, we are not powerless in this fight. Conservationists, governments, and local communities have made significant strides in protecting tigers. Through habitat restoration, stricter anti-poaching measures, and community engagement, we have seen positive changes. In countries like India, Nepal, and Russia, tiger populations are gradually increasing due to dedicated conservation efforts.

Today, as we celebrate International Tiger Day, let us recognize the importance of these efforts and pledge our support. Every individual can contribute to tiger conservation – whether by supporting organizations, spreading awareness, or advocating for stronger wildlife protection laws.

Let us use this day to inspire action and make a difference. Together, we can ensure that the roar of the tiger continues to echo through our forests for generations to come.

Thank you.
