The Olympic Games Part 1 (Sport)

The Olympic Games have come to be regarded as the world’s foremost sports competition. Before the 1970s the Games were officially limited to amateurs, but since that time many events have been opened to professional athletes. In 1924 the Winter Games were created, and in 1986 the IOC voted to alternate the Winter and Summer Games every two years, beginning in 1994.
The games were canceled during the two world wars (1916, 1940, and 1944) and have frequently served as venues for the expression of political dissent. china refused to participate in the Summer Games from 1956 until 1984 because of Taiwan’s participation; 26 nations boycotted the games in 1976 over the participation of New Zealand, some of whose athletes had competed in apartheid-era South Africa; the United States and some 60 other countries boycotted the 1980 games in Moscow to protest the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, and the Communist bloc and Cuba in turn boycotted the 1984 Los Angeles games.
In light of the IOC’s declared independence from political and financial interests, in 1998 the world was shocked by allegations of widespread corruption within the committee. Several committee members, it was found, had accepted bribes to approve the bid of Salt Lake City UT as the site for the 2002 Winter Games. Impropriety was also alleged for several previous bid committees. The IOC responded by expelling six members and in 1999 announced a number of wide-ranging reforms.

1 The year the justice took the judicial oath is here used as the beginning date of service, for until that oath is taken the justice is not vested with the prerogatives of the office. Justices, however, receive their commissions (“letters patent”) before taking their oaths—in some instances, in the preceding year. 2John Rutledge was acting chief justice; the US Senate refused to confirm him.
2 “Other” refers to Asians, Pacific Islanders, American Indians, Alaska Natives, and those belonging to two or more races. Alaska and Hawaii are excluded from the population numbers until 1960, the first census after they became states in 1959. 2The census definitions for urban and rural areas have changed through the decades.
3 Cities with boundaries contiguous with their respective counties (year consolidated): New York (1898), Philadelphia (1854), San Francisco (1856), Denver (1902), Washington (District of Columbia) (1790), Louisville (Jefferson county) (2003), and Nashville (Davidson county) (1963). 2Figure represents the “balance” or the population of the consolidated city minus any semi-incorporated places located within the consolidated city.
4 This table does not include the murder and nonnegligent homicides that occurred because of the terrorist attacks of 11 Sep 2001.2Forcible rape count estimated for 2000. 3Includes reported offenses at the National Zoo and, from 2002, offenses reported by the Metro Transit Police. 4Data are estimated or incomplete. 5Crime counts estimated for 2000. 6Data are limited or estimated between 2000 and 2003. 7Includes nonnegligent manslaughter.
5 Excludes coins sold to collectors at premium prices. 2Issued on or after 1 Jul 1929. 3Represents value of certain partial denominations not presented for redemption.
6 The income figures for the various educational levels are for workers 25 years old and over. Before 1991, the level of education categories used by the US Census Bureau differed from the categories presented in this table. Because of this, the 1980 figures for the median income by educational level are not completely comparable with the figures for later years. The figures presented in the 1990 column for educational levels are actually for 1991, the first year the educational categories listed in this table were used by the US Census Bureau. 2Figures for the 1980 sections covering “race and origin” and “age” are for civilian workers only. 3Hispanic people may be of any race.
7 Data for ages 16-19 until 2004. 2Data for ages 25 and older until 2004. 3Data for ages 20 years and older until 2004. 4Hispanics may be of any race and are included in both the white and black racial categories in this table.
8 For joint returns, the taxes are twice the tax imposed on half the income. 9Sixteen states have statutory provision for automatic adjustment of tax brackets, personal exemption, or standard deductions to the rate of inflation. Massachusetts, Michigan, Nebraska, and Ohio index the personal exemption amounts only.
