Jessie Diggins: ‘Eating disorders are about control when you feel like you have none’
Mar 25, 2024
Having reached the summit of cross-country skiing (again), the former Olympic champion opens up about a relapse that nearly thwarted her seasonCross-country skiing at the elite level feels closer to survivalism than sport, a staredown with existential resistance that requires a tolerance for suffering bordering on inhumane and an appetite for pushing past the outer limits of what the body and mind believe is possible. Jessie Diggins calls it the “pain cave”, the place that endurance athletes enter when they’ve willed themselves beyond their breaking point and every muscle group is gripped with an agony that would leave the rest of us mortals supine and helpless along the trail. Diggins’ hard-won mastery of this aerobic mental and physical torture chamber is what’s carried her from small-town Minnesota to the summit of a sport that was dominated by Europeans for more than a century. That is, until she came along.It’s been four days since Diggins nailed down her second World Cup overall title to put the finishing touches on the most successful season ever for an American cross-country skier. The 32-year-old from the tiny St Paul suburb of Afton (population: 2,951), whose trademark glitter, megawatt smile and almost nuclear positivity have become her calling cards, could clinch the crown with no worse than a 20th-place finish in last Sunday’s season-ending women’s 20km mass start freestyle in the Swedish town of Falun. But rather than playing it safe, Diggins conjured a sensational knockout blow on a course tailor-made to her strengths. Clustered with a gaggle of rivals entering the closing 2.5km, Diggins broke free with one final lung-busting sprint and crossed the finish line first by ninth-tenths of a second ahead of Norway’s Heidi Weng for her sixth individual win of the season, cementing herself as the world’s most dominant cross-country skier.

‘I wanted to humanise those lost in the statistics’: four directors on their new movies depicting refugee journeys
Mar 24, 2024
How does it feel to risk trafficking and torture to seek a better life in a strange land? Ahead of four films telling migrant stories, we hear from directors including Matteo Garrone and Milad Alami about tackling one of the most pressing issues of our timeThe telling of stories is an act of profound hospitality. Story is an ancient form of generosity, one that will always tell us everything we need to know about the contemporary world. It is fundamental to the communicative survival of the human species and has always been a welcoming-in; always, one way or another, a gracious meeting of the needs of self and other. The narratives we exchange don’t just validate all of us, they represent us much more truly than data or statistics or a passport ever will. Our individual selves transform in the telling into something shared and communal. This is because story is the opposite of an exclusion zone; by its nature, it’s always an inclusion zone, because a story that sets out to exclude won’t work as a story at all, its agenda being something else altogether.A glance at recent UK news is as telling about the inhumanity of our country’s treatment of refugees as ever. If I’m an asylum seeker here living in the care of the Home Office, and I die, then no one in the Home Office will care to notify my family. If I’m a rough sleeper on the streets of England, then the chances are more likely than not I’m a refugee who’s been evicted from Home Office temporary accommodation. (That’s just last week’s news.)

Net Insight and Mobilelinks Elevate Swedish Ice Hockey Playoffs With UHD IP Remote Production
Mar 14, 2024
Net Insight partners with Mobilelinks to deliver an upgraded broadcasting experience for the Swedish Ice Hockey League (SHL), Sweden's top-tier ice hockey league. While TV4 plays its pivotal role as the broadcaster of the premium rights of ice hockey (SHL), Mobilelinks is entrusted with the crucial responsibility of managing all transport services powered by Net Insight technology. One of the milestones of this partnership is the expansion of the existing Nimbra infrastructure. The Nimbra platform can switch 1.2 Tb, and directs feeds from all venues to NEP’s datacenter acting as the central facility house. Production is handled from three remote production centers that are geographically spread over the country. This robust setup connects 14 SHL arenas across Sweden, each fortified with dual 10Gb redundancy. Such a configuration is designed to handle peak times, like in the case of up to seven matches being played concurrently. The remote production strategy and centralized hardware setup have helped NEP to optimize broadcast equipment efficiency by consolidating resources at a single location, leading to increased utilization. Annually, Swedish ice hockey fans can look forward to approximately 500 matches from the top league. Each game promises to leverage the capabilities of this revamped infrastructure, offering viewers a consistent and high-quality experience. A noteworthy achievement, the Swedish Ice Hockey League is the first sports league to champion UHD IP remote production. Incorporating 12 cameras that are prepped and primed for ST 2110 and JPEG XS ensures ultra-high-definition video and broadcast. With the remote production powered by JPEG XS in UHD and the strategic shift from SDI to ST 2110, the commitment of SHL and its partners remains clear: Deliver an unmatched viewing experience to fans. Central to this mission is the Nimbra 1060, ensuring reliability, unsurpassed video quality, and broadcast without hiccups. “At Mobilelinks, the recent upgrade across all top league venues empowers us to seamlessly execute remote productions for SHL. Embracing JPEG XS has poised us for UHD productions and advanced ST 2110 workflows. Production galleries have particularly praised the minimal latency, finding it exceptionally beneficial to producing high-paced ice hockey matches,” says Andreas Langell, CEO of Mobilelinks. “As always, the Nimbra platform stands as a beacon of reliability and trust, living up to the standards we've come to expect.” “We're on the edge of a new era in sports broadcasting,” says Crister Fritzson, CEO of Net Insight. “Our synergy with Mobilelinks and the ability of the Nimbra platform will undoubtedly reshape how ice hockey enthusiasts engage with their favorite sport in Sweden.”
