I LOVE DOGS
The Basset Hound is a short-legged breed of dog of the hound family. They are scent hounds, bred to hunt rabbits by scent. Their sense of smell for tracking is second only to that of the Bloodhound. The name Basset is derived from the French word bas, meaning "low", with the attenuating suffix -et, together meaning "rather low". Basset hounds are commonly brown and black and most often spotted, but also exist in a variety of colors

CosPLAy
Cosplay (コスプレ, kosupure?), short for "costume roleplay", is a fan labor type of performance art in which participants don costumes and accessories to represent a specific character or idea. Characters are often drawn from popular fiction in Japan, Taiwan, South Korea, China, and the Philippines. Favorite sources include manga, anime, tokusatsu, comic books, graphic novels, video games, hentai and fantasy movies. Role play includes portrayals of J-pop, K-pop and J-rock stars, visual kei, Taiwanese puppet characters, science fiction characters, characters from musical stories, classic novels, and entertainment software. Any entity from the real or virtual world that lend itself to dramatic interpretation may be taken up as a subject. Inanimate objects are given an anthropomorphic forms and it is not unusual to see genders switched, with women playing male roles and vice versa.
Cosplayers often interact to create a subculture centered around role play. A broader use of the term cosplay applies it to any costumed role play in venues apart from the stage, regardless of the cultural context.

Rio / OLYMPIC games
RIO DE JANEIRO — He is the Pele of politics, knighted the "most popular politician on Earth" by another contender for the title — Barack Obama.
Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva draws praise from Havana to Wall Street for an economic boom that has brought millions out of poverty. He has attended socialist rallies with Venezuela's Hugo Chavez less than two weeks after extending a fishing invitation to George W. Bush.
Now, after landing his continent's first Olympic Games, the former labor leader with a grade-school education is seeing his star burn hotter than ever, leaving some to wonder about Brazil's life after "Lula" — as he is known — when his term ends next year.
"Under Lula, Brazil has become the hottest brand on the world market," said Michael Shifter of the Inter-American Dialogue. "This is sort of the crowning glory for his presidency and his legacy."
When Rio won the 2016 Olympics Friday, it bested the Obamas lobbying for Chicago and former Olympic committee chair Juan Antonio Samaranch pleading to see a Madrid games in his twilight years. Silva jumped into a frenzied huddle, hugged Brazilian soccer great Pele and broke into tears.
"Our time has arrived. It's arrived!" he said during Rio's final presentation in Copenhagen.
