A message to deletionists

[edit]
"Of course you realize, this means war!"
Groucho Marx Bugs Bunny

I have received criticism for my words. This is a pattern of behavior. Let me be clear, this is not a personal attack, but a conceptual attack. By nominating an article for deletion, you are attacking the subject of the article. You have asked for the destruction of this content. I will use those terms.

If I have gotten involved in the discussion, I have already researched the subject and I will demand that you have done so too. WP:BEFORE. If you do not know what you are talking about, you should not be involved in the discussion. If necessary, I will add sources to the article. If these sources are obvious, I will call out your failure to have done a BEFORE search, meaning you didn't lift a finger to simply Google the subject of the article. It is your responsibility to try to fix the article before bringing the problem to the rest of us. WP:AGF is no longer relevant because your failure to do due diligence has negated it.

If I am involved, I have already determined, based on the sources I have found, that the subject is legitimate. With those same sources, I would expect any reasonable person would think the subject is legitimate content for wikipedia. I would expect you to do the right thing, apologize for your laziness and withdraw the nomination.

Most people's ego will not let them admit their failings. Or maybe you have an WP:AGENDA, wishing to censor this content from the public's knowledge. So we have a problem. Your failure to act responsibly in the interest of the public and the interest of the reputation of wikipedia has caused this problem. Expect me to fight back.

California athletes representing other countries internationally

[edit]

This is a list of athletes who have grown up in the United States but have chosen to compete for different countries. For the purposes of this list, this is based on graduating (or attending) an American high school. High schools are used because it is assumed in American culture that the parent(s) or guardians would have to reside relatively close to the high school they attend every school day. Excluded are foreign exchange students and boarding school students. In this same fashion, collegiate attendance is not used because frequently students change residence to attend college, including moving from another country exclusively to get an education and in athletic terms, that is frequently made available by scholarships.

As diverse as the makeup of the United States is, these athletes have various claims to assume nationality in other countries, some were born there, or their parents or extended family came from that country. Some become eligible through marriage. Some countries simply will accept an elite athlete to compete under their flag. While many athletes might express their desire to honor their heritage, it is generally regarded that the qualification process to international championships in many events is much harder in the United States, particularly in the events where USA excels.

Inversely, many Kenyan born athletes have continued through some form of emigration to the United States following their athletic scholarships. They have found qualifying for a United States team in a distance running event easier than their home country. For example at the 2016 Olympics, of the four men's long distance running events, seven East African born athletes qualified for the US team; five of them were born in Kenya.

Editorial

[edit]
We use "Google" in the form of a genericized trademark verb. While Google is a professional entity and the largest search engine company, wikipedia does not recommend to use any brand over any other search engines. Quite the contrary. It is best to try to research with as many different tools as possible, to broaden your possibility to learn. If you limit yourself to one search engine, you could be limited to the editorial judgement of that company. The simple choice of ranking content limits your research to what that search engine chooses to push forward.

Let's face it, everything an editor does on wikipedia involves research. If you know about something, you need to find a source to back you up. If you don't know about a subject, or even a specific comment, you have to look it up. A wise reader of wikipedia does not simply react to what is summarized in the wikipedia article, they go to the source and reads where that information came from. On that basis, we might assume anyone to take on the responsibilities of being a wikipedia editor should have developed the skills to do research. Certainly any editor capable of finding HOW to create an AfD should have developed sufficient skills to do research. That is why we have the standard of WP:BEFORE. Simply put, know what you are talking about before placing an article into the AfD process. More simply put, Google it.

Instead, the BEFORE policy is not enforced, and is usually ignored by lazy nominators. While admittedly there is a lot of junk people try to put on wikipedia, these lazy nominators' failure to do what is called in the legal profession; due diligence, puts a lot of good content at risk simply through ignorance--they haven't done any research so they don't know what they are talking about. But by placing an article up for deletion, you then cause a chain reaction. A lot of other people get involved, well they should get involved but the vast majority don't.

You should notify the creator of the article. Go back in the history to find that editor and send to their talk page. If you have to search through a long history, that should be a red flag. Ask yourself; "Do I know enough about this subject to delete the work of all these people accumulated over this much time?" If there are other editors who have made significant contributions to the article, numerically or volumetrically, they should be notified. Odds are, they will speak up to protect the content they spent their time and energy to add to wikipedia. Your argument for deletion should be prepared and thoughtful enough to surpass their arguments in favor of keeping the content. If you are not prepared to walk into that battle, do not start the fight. If you want to try to sneak around, to circumvent their expected defense; then your motives are not in the best interests of wikipedia and the public who uses wikipedia. You are doing this for the purposes of your own personal gain; to win the argument. Achieving consensus is the wikipedia form of peer review.

There is also responsibility of the peers to behave sensibly. An essay was written about one's responsibility commenting about an AfD. WP:BCDD WP:BEFORE should be applied here too. If you don't know what you are talking about, if you don't choose to inform yourself about the subject, nor to learn what is available (or is not available) to support the content of the article; the you shouldn't be voting. If you find something, you too should use your skills to fix it. Even if it doesn't rise to your own level of keep, if there is supporting material that you are not including, then you are taking a political stance on the content. Remember, wikipedia is looking for WP:NPOV. You can choose to be uninvolved, but casting an iVote is getting involved. Essentially you are deliberately hurting the article and indirectly, wikipedia. More simply put; if you are too lazy, uninformed or motivated by your opinion; then you shouldn't have a vote.

You shouldn't vote if you didn't first look for information and if found, fixing the article. And (this won't be popular for sure) I think there should be a penalty for serially making bad nominations or votes. In effect, it is disruptive. Their laziness bothers a whole lot more people to look at the article, comment/vote and ultimately close the discussion. A bad nomination is disruptive. So a first time offender is put on a quota for the number of NOMs or iVotes they can make in a period of time. Subsequent bad votes reduce the quota by 50 per cent. And with a certain number of bad NOMs or iVotes (which would have to be a decision by the closer), they lose their nominating or ivoting privileges. The standard for the closer to call it a bad nomination or bad vote will be simply (based on how the article has evolved) "You could have fixed this." Meaning, the sources that improved the article to a Keep were readily available if you had simply looked. I'd like to think people are here to improve Wikipedia, which is what WP:HEY is all about. I have been in enough AfD battles against disingenuous and lazy editors that I am convinced some people do not behave in the best interests of improving Wikipedia.

There is a distinction between the notability of the subject and the quality of the article about it. Only after doing a WP:BEFORE can you make the differentiation. If you get hits from your search, there is something to this, keep investigating. This doesn't mean this will be notable and achieve WP:GNG, there are a lot of excuses why it would not. Unreliable sources could show there is a story, or it could be indicating this subject is a flavor of the week story of dubious creation. You might have to go past those unreliable sources to see IF there are any reliable sources, referred to as Deep Gogle. If you are finding reliable sources, odds are, the subject can achieve GNG. So the disruption of an AfD is not needed. You are now at a crossroads. You know about an article you consider a problem. What do you do? You can use the information you just found and your editing skills to improve the article. Or you can come up with a bunch of excuses to be lazy about this problem and not spend the effort to fix the article. You can then sneak away and never admit to having noticed the problem. Or you can announce your laziness to the world by leaving a WP:TAG; your own Kilroy was here expressing your displeasure with the composition of the article and your unwillingness to do anything meaningful about it.about it.

W.R. Hutsell

[edit]

W. R. Hutsell is the author of the popular shareware DOS wargames VGA Civil War Strategy Game[10], EGA Civil War Battleset, Wars of Napoleon, and World War II In Western Europe.[11] All of the games are currently available free.

Initially he created the games and placed them free on a BBS but eventually began charging for them as people wanted copies on disk. Later he handed the rights to distribute the games over to David Mackey, who initially sold them as well but eventually released them free at their currently hosted location.[12]

An early ASCII version of EGA Civil War Battleset was probably Mr. Hutsell's first creation.[13] The game was tactical in nature. VGA Civil War Strategy followed and was strategic. Then came World War II In Western Europe, a tactical game based upon the Civil War Strategy engine. Following this was his final work, Wars of Napoleon which used both the strategical and tactical engines of the earlier games.

Mr. Hutsell lived in Kingston, Kentucky[14] for an extended length of time, his current residence is unknown.[15]

Ihar Dolbik

[edit]

Ihar Dolbik (born October 20, 1958) is a Belarusian masters long distance runner and marathoner. He won the 2015 World Masters Athletics Championships M55 Marathon[1] and 8000 metres cross country event[2] held near Lyon, France. During that same week, he also placed second at 5,000 metres and third at 10,000 metres.[3] He finished second at the Half-Marathon event portion of the 2014 World Indoor Masters Championships in Budapest, Hungary.[4]

At the 2014 European Veterans Athletics Championships in Izmir, Turkey, Dolbik was the M55 Champion in the 10,000 metres winning with 35:12.44, putting multiple laps on the second-place finisher. A week later, he was also won the Marathon, his time of 2:48:04 was faster than the winning times in the M50 and M45 divisions.[5] At the 2012 Championships in the tri-country area near Zittau (as one of the older runners in his age division), he finished second in the M50 division.[6] In May 2016, he finished second in his division in both the Road 10K and Half Marathon at the European Non-Stadia Championships with only a day's rest between races.[7]

In 2012, he was invited to participate in a sports roundtable on how to improve the running experience in Belarus. Dolbik advocated for a healthy environment:

"I am sure that young people are not talking to us because that is guilty surrounding atmosphere. Whenever I run on the concrete paths of the park Medvezhino, I see a lot of drinkers, smokers, full swing dog walking. Four years ago, when I started a class, it was even worse - all the turmoil added fires, which burned in the park on a regular basis. I gasped, in the end, after the pressure on the local authorities made sure that the park was on duty patrol. Now the thing - for the elimination of smoking.

In recent years, the number has increased dramatically involved, there are days when the park run more than just having a rest or idle wobbly. I noticed that most of the running around former athletes.

In order to find new supporters of an active lifestyle, you need to start from kindergarten to school. And the teachers of physical education should not be limited to playing ball, and teach children how to distribute the load as competently run. And in general, teach a healthy lifestyle, to show his favor, displace smokers from street drinking. To create a healthy environment. A man who lives an active athletic life, must have advantages and health insurance, and at work, and in the use of public goods." (translated)

— Ihar Dolbik[8]

He runs for Club Victoria from Minsk.[9] When club president Sergey Koval was interviewed by Belarus magazine in 2014, about the members of the club, he singled out Dolbik as "one of the best in the world and twice took 2nd place in the World Championships among veterans."[10] Others have made a similar assessment.[11] He was also quoted on his marathon recollections.[12]

Ihar also finished second in the M55 division at the 2015 Berlin Marathon. His time of 2:41:46 was the fastest of the Belorussian delegation.[13] That time also ranked him #9 over all in 2015 for the nation of Belarus.[14]

In 2013, he ran in the IAU World Cup 50 Km Ultramarathon in Daugavpils, Latvia. Ihar was part of a trio of runners chasing early leader, Russian Ivan Zernov. Igor Tyazhkorob, who finished second in the race commented how Ihar had hurried his attempt to catch Zernov. "This distance does not like to rush." Dolbik finished third overall in 3:15:51.[15]

He finished second at the 2015 European Masters Half Marathon in Grosseto, Italy.[16]

His personal best, achieved at age 52 is 2:36:45, set in Minsk winning the Asipovichy Marathon.[17] He had run 2:38:16 just before his 52nd birthday.[18] He finished fourth overall in the 2012 Moscow Marathon Luzhniki in Russia.[19] The year earlier he finished third in 2:43:46.[20] He was the M50 winner of the 2011 White Nights Marathon in St. Petersburg a month later in a slightly faster 2:43:03.[21][22] Also in 2012, he also finished second at the Molodechnenski Marathon in 2:40:25.[23] In 2013 he finished 12th overall in the first Moscow Marathon, running 2:43:45 to win the M50 division at age 54. All of the runners ahead of him were in their 20s or 30s.[24] In 2014, he was the M55 winner in 2:44:02.[25]

2015 Los Angeles Unified School District closure

[edit]
Trackinfo/sandbox
DateDecember 15, 2015 (2015-12-15)
DurationOne day
VenueLos Angeles Unified School District
LocationLos Angeles, California, United States
TypeOnline threat
OutcomeClosure of Los Angeles Unified School District schools

On December 15, 2015, the Los Angeles Unified School District in Los Angeles, California received a credible terrorist threat via email causing the lockdown closure of all Los Angeles Unified Schools.[1] With more than 900 schools containing over 700 thousand students, it is the second-largest school district in the United States.

The email

[edit]

The email was traced to an IP address in Frankfurt, Germany.[2] The Los Angeles Times reported that the threat did not necessarily originate from an IP address in Frankfurt, Germany.[3]

Decision

[edit]

After the threat had been received at 10 p.m. the previous day, the decision to close the schools was made at 6 a.m. by Los Angeles Unified School District Superintendent Ramon C. Cortines. Corniness had quietly submitted his resignation just four days earlier, but stepped back into authority when the crisis emerged.[4]

Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti stated that because he does not control the schools, that Superintendent Ramon Cortines, not he, made the decision. People in charge concurred that their response could have been better organized. Cortines stated that he should have been contacted much less than 7 hours after receiving the threat. Though the school board president contacted police, Cortines was not contacted until they were unable to rule out a real attack, giving him minutes before school bus drivers left to make the important decision.[5]

Similar threats

[edit]

A similar threat potentially from the same source but with different wording was emailed to the City School District of the City of New York, where it was concluded to be a hoax.[6] Mayor Bill de Blasio said "Our schools are safe. Kids should be in school today. We will be vigilant. But we are absolutely convinced our schools are safe."[7] The New York City Police Department criticized the Los Angeles Police Department for overreacting,[8] with the Republican Presidential Debate that night focusing heavily on the issue.[9]

Former LA Police Chief and current New York Police Commissioner William Bratton referred to the closure as a significant overreaction. "We can not allow ourselves to raise levels of fear." He also suggested the incident could have been inspired by the TV series Homeland.[10]

Aftermath

[edit]

After potentially costing the district $29 million, schools reopened with increased security on 16 December 2015.[11] All schools were inspected before reopening.

One woman got busy tones when she attempted to call the district, and received a phone call at around 10 AM on Tuesday well after classes started stating that school was cancelled. Another person who does not speak Spanish received a telephone call in that language. Additionally, the district failed to properly inform parents that it was safe to return to school on Wednesday, December 16.[12]

LAPD police chief Charlie Beck called the criticism "irresponsible".[13]

Authorities have contacted a 21 year old man from Augusta, Maine named Vincent Canfield,[14] who has been issued a subpoena.[15]

Copy cats

[edit]

During the same week, schools in Las Vegas,[16] Fullerton,[17] Ellensburg,[18] McAllen,[19] San Francisco,[20] Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Houston, Dallas[21] and four in the Indianapolis area (Plainfield, Danville, Franklin and Goshen) received similar threats.[22][23] Threats continued the following week, causing schools to close in Nashua, New Hampshire.[24] Another hoax was made in Farmington, New Mexico. A 13 year old was later arrested.[10]

On 21 December 2015, KUTV published an article detailing how organizations can and should respond to threats similar to this one.[25]

Etiquette

[edit]

Like most formalized occasions there is a certain etiquette required of anyone entering at track and field (athletics) venue. The formality of the situation escalates with the usage, the level of the meet and its competitors. Some of these elements are designed to enforce the stature of the event and athletes appreciate getting the "royal" treatment.

There is a general grass roots element to the sport. Virtually anybody can participate in some aspect of the sport. All it takes is a pair of running shoes and that is not even a requirement. Paralympic and Special Olympics events make accommodations for athletes. Many athletes, including East African runners who are the best in the world, spend their formative years running long distances barefoot. Many have to go through a different form of training to get used to wearing shoes. Abebe Bikila won his first Olympic Marathon barefoot and his second wearing shoes. Because anyone can participate, many facilities are open to the public during hours that are not reserved for meets, formal practice or other uses, though these open situations are diminishing as new fences are being constructed around these facilities. In the United States, many facilities are free to use, while around the world some require an entry fee. Before jumping a fence, it would be good etiquette and of legal importance to determine the circumstances at any track facility. The easiest determinative factor would be to see an open gate into the facility. Other members of the community inside would be another good indicator. Conversely, closed, locked gates, warning signs and barbed wire are good indications that outsiders are not welcome. If organized activities are going on or children are present, unfamiliar adults in the area will be treated with suspicion.

Dormant time

[edit]

Once inside, do not interfere with anyone else's activities. Before crossing the track from the outside, look to your left first, then check to your right and be sure to look around the nearest turn for oncoming runners. The normal running direction around the track is counter clockwise. Some distance running athletes deliberately reverse their running direction to reduce the repetitive use effect of making constant left turns. It is a shared space, with runners of differing abilities isolating which lanes they are using. If you just arrived, you were not privy to the arrangement. Similarly, you should look to your right first and all around before crossing a track from the inside.

When using a track, you should blend in with the traffic. If you are too slow, move to an unoccupied outer lane. Many facilities prefer you use outer lanes as the inside lane (lane one) is the one measured for precise distances, thus it gets the most usage and wear. An all weather track facility can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars and needs to be resurfaced every 7-10 years. Facility owners want to preserve their surface as long as possible. All weather facilities limit the length of spikes allowed to be worn on their surface for the same reason. 1/4 inch (6 mm) are commonly the maximum but some facilities are more restrictive. If you are sharing a lane with faster runners, do not alter your course when you hear runners approaching from the rear. Faster runner can make their way around your outside but if you move in an erratic fashion, they won't have time to make additional evasive action and collisions can occur. Similarly, don't just stop in front of other runners, instead step to the inside or outside if space is available and make sure you have room to do it. [26][27]

It is common for faster runners to call out "Track" to alert you to their impending approach. Other words are used in other languages, in Spanish "Pista" is the word. These are common alert terms to shout out if someone is in the wrong place, meaning if you hear this, check where you are. Faster runners might adopt the more specific terminology from trail running by telling a slower runner, for example "Passing on the right."

You should also be observant before crossing runways for field events. Athletes usually start their activity at the opposite end of the runway from the pit or foul line. The purpose of a runway is to give athletes space to accelerate so they can start suddenly and arrive quickly. If there is any sign of activity, it is a good idea to avoid a runway entirely. The high jump apron is confusing to novices as athletes can approach the bar from differing angles and arcs across a wide area. Throwing sectors are particularly dangerous. Implements can travel a long distance and the objects they are throwing are in fact ancient implements of war. Spectators and officials have been hurt or killed by thrown implements during a momentary lapse in attentiveness. Do not cross the landing sector if it is in use. Essentially, do not go anywhere the implement can go. Stay behind safety cages or out of range of the throwers. And above all, pay attention to anyone who looks like they are going to throw something.

If you are using someone else's facility, it should be obvious, don't damage it. Leave it as you found it. Put hurdles back where you found them. Close any gates you opened.[28]

Meet time

[edit]

The level of the meet and the formality of etiquette within the venue varies. Meet management has full charge of the facility. If it a small meet for children run by volunteers, many athletes, parents and spectators could have access to the facility. Access does not mean to run amok. Adults need to make sure their younger charges stay where they should. After weeks of practice, the children might know the etiquette of the home facility better than unfamiliar adults. Stay off the track and to the side of field event venues. Assume runways and throwing sectors to be active. People designated as officials are in charge of each event area, it is their job to maintain order, make sure rules are followed and get each athlete a measurement of their attempt. The next section will discuss more formal escalations.

Track events generally have three processing phases:

Clerk of the Course: The first phase is organizing who is on the track, generally called clerking. The people doing this job are part of the "clerk of the course." The formality of this process can vary widely from simply deciding how many of the interested competitors go in each race, to a more formal entry process addressed later.

Start: Once on the track and in designated lanes if so specified, the athletes are in the charge of a starter. The starter makes sure every athlete is properly lined up and when they are ready, the starter will issue commands that lead to the firing of the starting gun to begin the race. It is bad etiquette to make noise during the start process as it might unfairly distract the athletes in the race. At high level meets, the IAAF has started using a "shhhh" sound on the public address system at the beginning of the start process so everyone in the stadium knows to be quiet until the gun is fired. Many races have been recalled because of extraneous noises at inappropriate times. If the starter judges the start to be unfair, the gun will be fired again to recall the race, whereupon the process will start over, possibly disqualifying any competitors who caused a violation of the rules during the previous attempt. Ideally, there should be no obstructions between the starter and the athletes they are in charge of. When there is a staggered start, that could mean a wide range of the arc of the first turn is a no mans land.

Once the race is under way, there might be other assistants to make sure the athletes follow the correct course and go the proper distance.

Finish: At the finish of the race will be a crew of sufficient numbers to capture the identity and time of each finisher in proper order. With modern fully automatic timing systems, it is possible for one person to do this job, but most meets still choose to back up that process with a crew of people. Since fully automatic timing is a photographic process taking a narrow aperture linear picture of the finish line, it interferes with the system for any object not a competitor in the race to cross the finish line until the last competitor has crossed the line. Stay away. If for some reason you are compelled to cross the line, go behind the camera and all the equipment at the finish line. Take the long route away from the activity of the finish of the race. At some facilities where field access is not restricted or secure, someone might be assigned to protect the finish line. If you approach as a non-competitor, you might get tackled or blocked.

Formal meets

[edit]

There is a vast difference between a low key meet for children and the highest level like the Olympics and World Championships. With these differences come varying degrees of formality each meet director can choose to employ. This section will discuss the highest level, so you can see what elements might be present at any other meet.

Field access is controlled and limited by security. Every person on the field has a reason to be there and a pass issued through an office of the meet management team. At the highest levels, officials will march in formation to their assigned location, each with assigned matching uniforms to show their position of authority. Along with the officials will be assigned volunteers to handle additional duties (raking pits, retrieving implements, operating equipment). Athletes will be escorted to their venues by marshals; assistants to the clerk of the course and will need to compete in proper uniforms (national uniforms at major international competitions). A crew of volunteers will pick up athletes belongings and will reunite with them after their event. Press, photographers and coaches (if they are allowed on the field at all) will be limited to assigned boxes where they can conduct their business.

Entry to the meet is a formal process. In the case of the Olympics, each entry is submitted by the national governing bodies. There are exceptions made for athletes whose situation does not connect them to an organized governing body. At the Olympics, a country may enter a maximum of three qualified athletes. At the World Championships, a fourth athlete could be entered if they qualify for a bye. In some events, if a quota of entries is not reached, additional athletes might be invited based on their ranking on the current world list. Each country is guaranteed one entry per gender in the meet, regardless of that athlete attaining the qualification standard. Sometimes there is a B standard, where a country can enter one athlete who has attained a slightly lesser standard. Attaining the standard will have to occur at a meet of sufficient quality that the performance can be verified. Athletes of such a stature will be enrolled in a year round drug testing program, subject to random tests for performance enhancing drugs. Failure to adhere to the tests can result in a ban. In lesser meets, the qualification for entry can be far less formal. Some meets like all comer track meets literally take anybody who shows up. Some meets are limited to specific teams or could have their own qualifying standards. In some meets a good contact with the meet director can override formal written standards.

An entry gets you a position in the first round of an event. In some events, there is no first round and everyone is in the final. While seeding may occur to give the best qualified athletes a preferred lane or position in the order, all further advancement is based on performance in that competition. The distance from the start line to the finish line, for example, is identical in all lanes.

At a large meet like this, an athlete has more check in responsibilities. Prior to the meet, they will need to confirm their status; their intent to participate or to drop out. Once at the meet, there will be a specific time range and a place for declarations, again a confirmation of intent to compete. At this level, there will possibly be a national team manager and assistants to make sure athletes get to the correct place at the correct time. The first visit to the declarations table is frequently the time an athlete's entry packet is dispensed, which will give all specifications to follow and their meet issued bib number. The American debacle at the 1972 Olympics shows that depending on someone else for backup, you can't guarantee it will go correctly. In the hours before the event is scheduled, there will be one additional check in, possibly in the warm up area, but that is not guaranteed. Meet instructions and last minute revisions need to be observed constantly. While most meets will have a designated warm up area, with access limited to coaches and athletes prior to their events, this might be at a remote facility with a shuttle service. Athletes are responsible to allow time to be shuttled to the stadium in time for the final check in. Some meets might also have a requirement to be in a waiting room immediately before the event is called. While in the waiting room, an athlete's uniform, bib number and hip numbers will be checked one last time, each having specific regulations to adhere to, relative to the instructions given to the athletes in the athlete packet. It is from this waiting room that the marshals will take the athletes as a group to their event in the stadium. At the World Championships, the athletes are introduced one by one, whereupon they enter through a proscenium and pose somewhat similar to a professional wrestling entrance. Prior to this extra level of showmanship, the athletes would line up at the event venue or start line and would be introduced one by one.

At major meets, most often, coaches are limited to front row seats in the stands. Field event athletes are not allowed to cross the track to consult with their coaches, so many have to yell advice over the crowd or use hand gestures and sign language to communicate. Artificial sound amplification devices are not allowed. Similarly, athletes are not permitted to use any form of electronic device in the competition area as it could be a form of improved communication to the coach; an unfair advantage. Using electronics could result in disqualification. At most levels, athletes are not permitted to view replays of their attempts, though there are some exceptions. Of course, television coverage visible to the entire stadium is excepted.

Pressure-sensitive starting blocks with loudspeakers. A pressure sensor will detect an early start and the loudspeakers provide the runners with the sound from the starter all at the same time.

Starting at major meets involves multiple starters on the crew. While only one is charged with issuing commands and firing the gun, the others observe from various angles to ensure a fair start. Any of these starters can recall the race and their position is called "Recall Starter." At some meets, particularly in Europe, one of these starters will actually run across the start line checking how the athletes have toed the line moments before the gun goes off. When pressure sensitive starting blocks are used, an additional starter monitors the electronic reaction time of the athletes. This starter is specifically prohibited from viewing the athletes, but is charged with the responsibility to recall the race if any athlete reacts faster than 100/1000ths (one tenth) of a second. You will see that starter wearing headphones, facing away from the start line, looking at the computer screen. Most pressure sensitive blocks are also equipped with personalized loudspeakers, so the sound of the gun arrives at each starting block at exactly the same time. At many meets with this equipment, electronic starting guns, generating an artificial gunshot sound through the speakers are used. Of course, during the start, silence is requested including by a "Shhh" sound over the public address system, though it is difficult to enforce in a full stadium. Some major races have been recalled and false starts excused due to noise caused by the crowd and particularly press photographers taking those dramatic start line photos, which often leads to controversy questioning the judgement call.

The finish is generally the same at any electronically timed meet. Of course with a bigger budget, bigger meets will likely have backups on their backups to provide for multiple angles to judge a finish and account for possible equipment failure. First and foremost, the intent is to get the results correct. With the general high security of the stadium floor and the experience of the athletes, enforcers of the finish line are not usually needed. After the finish, medaling athletes traditionally are handed a national flag and are allowed a victory lap. Frequently the athletes go to the mixed zone to get interviewed by various media representatives. What is not usually seen, is the discreet quarantine of the athlete. Whatever the athlete is handed and consumes is noted. Anything other than water is usually prohibited. Once out of the public eye, the athlete's next stop will be at the doping control office, where they will be observed until they produce a sample. Multiple versions of the sample are retained, for immediate testing, backup testing (if the first sample produces a positive result, meaning signs of a prohibited substance is found) and samples might be retested years later when detection technology improves.

Jack Ma

Jack Ma on the future of online trade and globalization at the World Economic Forum 2017

5:43 "Where did the money go? (In the) past 30 years, U.S. had 13 wars spending $14.2 trillion dollars. The money going there. What if they spent part of that money on building up the infrastructure, helping the white collars and blue collars. No matter how strategy good it is, you're supposed to spend money on your own people."

"The financial crisis. Year 2008 wiped out $19.2 trillion in USA alone. . . Wiped out 34 million jobs globally . . . What if the money was spent on the Middle East, Midwest of the United States?"

So It's not that other countries steal jobs from you guys, It's your strategy. Distribute the money and things in a proper way." [9]

46:10 " . . . the technology we have, if they do not have a good heart inside, we are going to make a disaster for the world. Google, Facebook, Amazon, Alibaba. The companies. We are the largest companies of this century. People are lucky. We have the responsibility that we should have a good heart to do something good."

49:26 "Every disaster, the environment disasters, reflect the human heart today because when we need too much, we destroy a lot of things . . . all we want to do is get more. We want more things. We go to the moon, we go to Mars, we go, all outside looking. We human beings never inside looking. If you don't have the inside looking, you will never be wise. If you are not wise, you will never know what you don't want. Today human beings get much more than they expect they should have. So the environmental pollution, the whole thing happening, is because human being become greedy. Become arrogant."

"Trust me. The machine will know you better than you know yourself."
