Tokyo Olympics organizers unveiled a smaller budget of up to $17 billion on Wednesday after coming under pressure to cut ballooning costs.


The figure http://www.oldskooltilbud.com/vans-sk8-hi-slim-leather-tilbud-hvid-vans.html , down from last month's pledge to cap expenditure at $17.78 billion, follows warnings that the bill for the 2020 Games could soar as high as $30 billion.


Organizing committee chief executive Toshiro Muto said the entire Games budget will be between 1.6 trillion and 1.8 trillion yen, which he put at $15-16.8 billion.


Under the latest exchange rate, the same yen figure is worth $13.6-15.3 billion. This year's Rio Games cost $12 billion, while London 2012 came in at 8.77 billion pounds or $13.7 billion under the exchange rate at the time.


Wednesday's figure, the most complete budget yet for Tokyo 2020, comes after officials scrambled to slash the costs of building some Olympic venues.


It was revealed at talks between the Games' organizers http://www.oldskooltilbud.com/vans-sk8-hi-reissue-sort-vans-sko-denmark.html , the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and the -Tokyo and national governments, who are meeting regularly to try to cut costs.


"This does give the overall picture," IOC Vice President John Coates said.


Tokyo Governor Yuriko Koike, who was elected this year vowing to bring down costs, said some 40 billion yen would be saved after a review of the -canoeing, volleyball and swimming venues.


Koike said the organizing committee and Tokyo and central governments will discuss further specifics early next year, including "cost-sharing."


In the battle to cut costs http://www.oldskooltilbud.com/vans-old-skool-hvid-guld-old-skool-vans-tilbud.html , she had -proposed moving the canoeing 400 -kilometers north of Tokyo to Miyagi prefecture, one of the areas hardest hit by Japan's 2011 tsunami disaster.


But the idea faced resistance from the organizing committee, which argued that changing sites was impractical and could end up costing more.


Koike gave up the plan last month and announced that canoeing will stay in Tokyo as planned, but with the venue built at a sharply reduced cost.


In the previous four-way meeting last month, Muto said the organizing committee's working budget was capped at less than 2 trillion yen ($17.78 billion) and officials are committed to pushing it lower. But Coates refused to accept the figure and said overall costs would have to come down significantly.

FUZHOU, Sept. 7 (Xinhua) -- Lin Rigeng brims with pride everytime he tells visitors the stories of his house.


""I never get tired of it. Actually, I enjoy it http://www.oldskooltilbud.com/vans-old-skool-sort-old-skool-vans-tilbud.html ,"" he said.


The four-story clay building Lin, 66, shares with 77 otherscovers an area of 5,000 square meters, or nearly three quarters ofa football field. It was built a century ago by his grandfather'sbrothers.


These buildings are known as ""tulou,"" which means ""building madeof earth"" in Chinese. In July 2008, tulou were inscribed on theUNESCO's World Heritage List as a unique residential architectureof east China's Fujian Province.


Lin's house in Hongkeng Village was among the 46 representativetulou presented to the World Heritage Committee.


""My house belongs to the world. I want everyone to learn aboutit http://www.oldskooltilbud.com/vans-old-skool-pro-sort-old-skool-vans-denmark.html ,"" said Lin.


MAGIC FORTRESS


Tulou can take many forms, including rings, triangles, squares,rectangles, and pentagons. Lin's home is one of the most commonring-shaped tulou.


It is believed that the first tulou were built in the 11thcentury by people who escaped the wars in central China. This isone explanation for why tulou have an extremely thick outer wall.The wall around Lin's home is 1.3 meters thick.


Tulou functioned as a fortress to protect residents frominvaders and wild animals.


There are more than 20,000 tulou in Yongding County http://www.oldskooltilbud.com/denmark-dame-vans-old-skool-hvid-rainbow.html , about twoand a half hours drive from Xiamen which recently hosted the ninthBRICS summit.


The oldest existing tulou in the county was built 600 years ago.The largest has 384 rooms and can accommodate at least 800people.


Lin's house was named Zhencheng Lou by his grandfather. It has208 rooms arranged according to the bagua, an eight-point diagramthat determines the auspicious locations for various functions tobalance the energy within the house.


Fifteen families live in the building and all are involved intourism-related businesses, including tour guiding, runninghomestays, selling farm produce such as tea, mushrooms, driedvegetables and persimmons Nike Dame Air Huarache Run Ultra SE Sko Sort På nettet , and souvenirs including tulou models andbooks.


""We are richer. Our life is better, so is our livingenvironment,"" said Lin, when talking about changes that touristshave brought for his family.


According to Yongding County records, a model of Zhencheng Louwas on display at an international architectural model expo held inLos Angeles since the 1980s.


Locals tell a story that tulou, especially the ring-shaped ones,were spotted by U.S. satellites and mistaken for missile silos ornuclear devices during the Cold War.


""In my opinion Nike Dame Air Huarache Run Ultra Br Sko Hvid På nettet , that tale originally helped attractinternational attention to tulou,"" Lin said.


LIFE AND FUTURE


Lin is the son of a farmer and his name means ""plowingeveryday.""


He was born in Zhencheng Lou, and could not be a more hospitablehost. Back in the 1980s, when few people knew about the buildings,he began voluntarily guiding visitors, treating them withhome-grown tea, food and wine Herre Nike Air Max TN Plus Udsalg Sort/Sølv Sko , and telling them the history of thebuildings.


""The moment they entered Zhencheng Lou, they were simultaneouslyshocked and excited. They could not imagine how people could buildsuch a large house to accommodate a whole clan,"" Lin said, ""Onlythen did I realize my house was such a treasure.""


In 1991, Lin became the first tulou tour guide hired by YongdingCounty Tourism Administration.


He said he learned even more about his own home from earlyvisitors, many of whom were architects or fans of historicalbuildings.


Despite having only a primary school education, Lin has writtena book on tulou.
