RIO DE JANEIRO -- The CEO of the Rio Olympics said Sunday that his privately funded operating budget needs just less than $30 million in public funding to meet its obligations.Chief executive officer Sidney Levy had pledged that only private money would be used to run the Games. That promise was broken just more than a month ago, when the committee requested a bailout from the city of Rio de Janeiro and the federal government to run the Paralympic Games.Levy, speaking on the final day of the Paralympics, said, We committed ourselves to hosting the Games without any public funds, but during the journey, there were a lot of ups and downs that led to the overrun.The operating budget is for running the Games themselves and does not include roads and stadiums built to prepare the city. In a conservative estimate, Rio spent between $10 billion and $12 billion in public and private money readying the city -- much of the private money lured in by tax concessions and favorable loan terms from government lenders.Levy, who promised early in his term to run an operating committee free of corruption, said the final figure for the operating budget was $2.8 billion. He said the final government contribution would not be more than 1 percent of that.The dollar-denominated budget number has fluctuated over the years because of wide swings in that currencys value against the Brazilian real.The Rio organizing committee received a last-minute reserve fund of 150 million reals ($45.9 million) from the city of Rio de Janeiro. Levy said he expects to use about two-thirds of that fund.Brazils federal government also came up with another 100 million reals ($30.6 million). This comes in the form of sponsorships from three state-run entities, including the scandal-plagued oil company Petrobras.Levy said he does not regard the sponsorships as government money, although organizing committee members acknowledged they lobbied Brazil president Michel Temer for the outlay.This is a right Petrobras has to purchase this sponsorship as many other privately owned and other state-run companies do, Levy said. It is not government money that could be used for other things. Its their advertising money.Levy then added: By the way, they paid very little for it. It was very cheap for them.Levy said the annual salaries for its eight top directors would be available at the end of the year. The Brazilian newspaper Estadao reported last month the eight were paid an average of $25,000 per month in 2015.Levy also said the audit results of his budget would be made available.We follow the rules of all private companies that are listed on the stock market in Brazil, Levy said. Our [financial] statement cannot be doubted because they are audited and published. I insist on that. Adil Rami Jersey . SIMONS ISLAND, Ga. Anthony Martial France Jersey .

TAMPA, Fla. -- Josh Huff is getting a second chance in the NFL with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.The former Philadelphia receiver and special teams standout was signed to the Bucs practice squad Monday, less than a week after the third-year pro was arrested on gun and drug charges and subsequently released by the Eagles.Huff, 25, was charged Nov. 1 with possession of a 9 mm handgun without a permit and having a small amount of marijuana after he was pulled over for speeding in New Jersey. The 2014 third-round draft pick, who also was cited for driving while intoxicated, had 48 receptions for 482 yards and four touchdowns in two-plus seasons in Philadelphia.You live and you learn, Huff said Monday. Obviously Im mad that I put myself in that situation, but you live and you learn.

Hes also averaged 27.7 yards on 42 career kickoff returns, including TDs of 107 and 98 yards since entering the NFL.Coach Dirk Koetter would not speculate on what Huff could contribute to a team that needs help at receiver with veteran Vincent Jackson on injured reserve.We signed him to the practice squad.

We had Josh in the Senior Bowl a few years ago when I was coaching in Atlanta, the coach added.dddddddddddd Weve got 10 guys on our practice squad, and were trying to develop those guys who could help us down the road.Huff said hes grateful for the opportunity for a fresh start. The 5-foot-11, 206-pound receiver acknowledged it wont be easy to learn a new offense in the middle of the season.But Im up for the challenge. Im going to be here, in the playbook, and try to do everything else. Im going to try to do everything I can to show these coaches that Im here for a good reason and ready to help my teammates, Huff said.My main focus right now is to learn the playbook, learn my teammates and learn how things are done around here, he added. I have a great group of guys around me to help teach me the ropes.Huff told The Associated Press in Philadelphia last week that he carries a gun because he doesnt trust people in his hometown of Houston and he has to protect his family.The players attorney said Huff has a license to carry in Texas and that the weapon was not loaded when the athletes car was stopped on the New Jersey side of the Walt Whitman Bridge.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
