Obama to make in-person pitch for 2016 Olympics in Chicago

**You thought the traffic was bad in Chicago now, imagine if they had the 2016 Olympics in Chicago? WOW! BUT for real... Good Luck to Chicago, my 2nd home!**

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama will travel to Denmark to support Chicago's bid for the 2016 Summer Olympics, projecting the highest-ever White House profile in lobbying for the international event.

Valerie Jarrett, a senior adviser to the president, told The Associated Press this morning that Obama will leave Thursday and join his wife, Michelle, in Copenhagen, where they'll make the pitch to the International Olympic Committee. Obama would be the first U.S. president to actually appeal in person to the International Olympic Committee for an Olympics event.


The International Olympic Committee is meeting in Copenhagen to select a host city for the 2016 Summer Games. Chicago faces tough competition from Rio de Janeiro, Madrid and Tokyo.

Дорогие дамы, вопрос.Я сызнова про канву, на сей раз про окрашивание. Снедать голубая канва, хочу придать ей объема, добавить прозрачные облака. Теоретически, позволительно рисковать белой акриловой краской тож выбелить участок белизной. Может у кого уже теснить испытание, поделитесь?Заранее спасибо.
