What are the requirements for an office position in collegiate athletics?
December 2, 2008
Key words: Office Position, Collegiate Athletics.
Starting from what kind of degree (if any) is needed. To what kind of skills are needed.
At the present time, I am a full time office assistant (no college degree) working in a boring, almost sedendary job. I am 4 classes away from an Associates degree in Physical Education. I’m 52 years old. I’ve been doing office work since 1975.
I think you need to be chunky.
After that, I think they look for, well, kinda goofy.
The other thing I’ve noticed is effeminate. That may be optional. . .

Can an older person join an athletics club?
November 22, 2008
I do circuit training and body pump twice a week and I run 4 miles three times a week. Would I be able to train at an athletics club for speed/stamina/performance enhancement? The problem being that I am 'older person'
Thanks for all your answers.
Oldmrnr you shouldn't ask a lady her age, but since you did, I am quite a bit younger than you
Should be able to. Most athletics clubs have a 'vets' team/training session anyway.

Athletics events, what is the best material to use on the discuss / shot put circles?
November 20, 2008
A granite, sand & cement (strong mix) has been used & trowel float finished.
After a couple of weeks in use the finish has been worn off due to the constant friction of spinning, etc.
Does anyone suggest a harder finish?
I was tinking of maybe a 2 part epoxy/resin, but would that be too slippy?
Thanx, etnam 90
I believe the basic surfaces are some sort of synthetic rubber (12mm) sprayed on concrete. Here's a couple of professional suppliers for Europe and US which may help for ideas:

Cal Athletics in Beijing – Olympic Village (Part 7)
November 19, 2008
Jigar Mehta, a UC Berkeley alum, is in Beijing and capturing a behind the scenes look of the 2008 Beijing Olympics. Here are some of his notes that correspond to the video. For more updates and information, please visit http://calbears.com
—————–
It’s probably the most talked about place at the Olympic Games, and you can’t scalp a ticket to get in, it’s for Olympians only.
The Olympic village is truly a mini village with housing for 16000 people, a massive dining hall, and lots of entertainment options for the athletes. However, the best part of the village is the opportunity to meet athletes from around the world, if your clever you could make enough friends that you would never have to pay for another hotel room when you travel!
Everyone wants to know what it is like on the inside, and since I couldn’t get into the village I gave Martin Maric (Discus-Crotia) and
Amin Nikfar (Shot Put-Iran) a video camera for a day.

What are some reasons that it is good to have drug testing for middle/high school athletics?
November 18, 2008
What are some reasons that it is good to have drug testing for middle/high school athletics? What are some reasons that it is bad to have drug testing for middle/high school athletics? To search for stuff like steroids. (I'm doing a debate.)
Good:
1) To be sure students are healthy, not drug takers
2) To make sure sports are even, not unfair because of drugs on one side
3) To prevent deaths from drug taking side effects.
Bad:
1) Invasion of privacy (but who cares? It's LIFE we're talking about!)
2) May be expensive to the school (but it could be paid for with income from sports games)
3) May keep some kids out of sports, if their parents disagree with the invasion of privacy aspect, on moral grounds (but there are plenty of kids who want to play fairly)
You can see my bias!!

Cal Athletics In Beijing – Natalie Coughlin (Part 6)
November 17, 2008
Jigar Mehta, a University of California alumnus, is in Beijing capturing a behind-the-scenes look at the 2008 Beijing Olympics. In today’s video feature, he talks to former Cal swimming star Natalie Coughlin, who won six medals in Beijing to set a record for most medals by a U.S. female in one Olympic Games.
——————
Natalie Coughlin Interview:
Well, the swimmers are finally out of the pool and hitting the Olympic party scene. Last night (Sunday) was the famous Speedo Party, which takes place the night of the last day of swimming. All the stars of the pool from Michael Phelps to Dara Torres came, as did Cal’s very own six-time medalist in Beijing, Natalie Coughlin. With 11 Olympic medals, Natalie shares the honor with Matt Bondi as being Cal’s most decorated Olympian.
Natalie looked cool and calm and ready to celebrate with the rest of the U.S. swim team in attendance. She’ll be taking a little time off before setting her sites on London in 2012. Another 6 medals Natalie?

In retrospect, do you think the Oakland Athletics losing Jason Giambi to free agency was a bad thing?
November 14, 2008
In retrospect, do you think the Oakland Athletics losing Jason Giambi to free agency was a bad thing? Thoughts?
I think it turned out a lot worse for the Yankees then the A's. The A's were able to keep their pitching for a little while longer and develop other young bats; the Yankees could have spent that money on better arms for the rotation and the bullpen. The A's spendthrift ways look like they are catching up to them though.
