Even before the unprecedented delay to the 2020 Summer Olympics due to the coronavirus pandemic, NBC and HD Studio knew the set’s for Tokyo would take a different approach channeling a unique combination of environments while still incorporating a sense of global unity through sports that ended up taking on an even more fitting tone than usual.
“The day we got the call of ‘pencils down’ from NBC was coincidently the same day we delivered files to the fabricator,” said Bryan Higgason, HD Studio’s lead designer and founder, referring to when news began to circulate the Olympics wouldn’t take place in 2020 as planned.

FORT BRAGG, N.C. â The Security Assistance Training Management Organizationâs commander, Col. Scott Malone, relinquished command to Lt. Col Alex Duran at a relinquishment of command ceremony May 7.
Brig. Gen. Douglas Lowrey, commander of the Security Assistance Command, officiated the ceremony, passing the unit colors to Duran, until Maloneâs replacement, Col. Andrew Clark, arrives in August.
Malone, who is moving to another assignment, focused his remarks on the efforts of the SATMO team, which he called the SATMO family, and leadership of the SATMO senior enlisted adviser, Command Sgt. Maj. Brad Owens.
âIf I could take Command Sgt. Maj. Owens, and this entire team with me anywhere I go, I would absolutely bring them with me,â Malone said. âThis team accomplishes more with an incredibly small organization than division-sized elements all day long. We might be doing tactical level training but it absolutely has operational and strategic level impact.�
Some of the most patronising advice unis have given to students during the pandemic
Apparently, living through a pandemic as a student is like ‘learning to dance in the rain’

From being unable to access books and other resources to international students staying up at night to attend classes, the pandemic has turned the student experience into a living nightmare. In this difficult time, universities must step up to provide students with the assistance they require: sounds good in theory, doesn’t work in practice.
Here are some of the most patronising advice unis have given to students during the pandemic.

Students at Manchester University have launched a revolt against their vice-chancellor over the university’s mishandling of the coronavirus pandemic and have demanded she step down over her “complete failure of management”.
The Manchester students’ union will hold a vote of no-confidence in the vice-chancellor, Nancy Rothwell, the first time in its nearly 200-year history such a motion has been triggered. If the vote in March is successful, it will be reported to the university’s board of governors, which will decide whether to take further action.
Ben McGowan, one of the student organisers of the Nancy Out campaign, said: “The frequency and volume of mistakes and complete disregard for students make clear it’s not a one-off thing, it’s a complete failure of management.”
