Barbara Ann Scott Figure Skating Public Domain Known as “Canada’s Sweetheart,” Barbara Ann Scott is still the only Canadian to ever win Olympic gold at the senior women’s figure skating level. Love of the sport, dedication, sheer determination and plain hard work helped her achieve this impressive goal. Her grace, sportsmanship, technical brilliance and modesty, on and off the ice, are remembered more than 50 years later. She was born in Ottawa, Ontario in 1928 to her proud parents, army Colonel Clyde Rutherford Scott and Mary Purves. Her parents were instrumental in instilling many of the qualities that would help her to succeed in the figure skating world - a strong work ethic, belief in fair play, attention to detail and motivation to work hard. She was seven years old when she started skating at Ottawa’s Minto Club where she spent many, many long hours perfecting her skills. At the age of ten, Barbara Ann was the youngest Canadian to pass the gold figures test. Another memorable event in her young life also happened about this time. While visiting Ottawa, her skating hero Sonja Henie, invited her to tea and gave her a souvenir - an autographed picture in a gold frame. Barbara Ann won many titles in her short skating career: Junior Figure Skating Champion of Canada (1940); Canadian Senior Women’s Champion (1944-1948); North-American championships (1945-1948); two European championships (1947-1948); two World championships (1947-1948) and an Olympic gold medal at the 5th Winter Olympic Games in St. Moritz, Switzerland on February 6, 1948. In February 1947, when Barbara Ann won her first European championship title in Stockholm, Sweden, she became the first North American to win that title since its inception in 1896.

By David Walsh 19 February 2002 Use this version to print Send this link by email Email the author The most striking aspect of the furor over the Olympics pairs figure skating medal is the disparity between the intrinsic significance of the incident that sparked the flap and the media/political uproar it provoked. The affair has shed light on two interrelated phenomena: the degraded state of the Olympics and the poisoned state of international political relations. Toronto Star Today Show New York Times The ISU was meanwhile proceeding with a degree of caution, promising to meet and discuss the matter on February 18. The ISU head pointed out that some of its delegates had not yet arrived in Salt Lake City, and that there had been no opportunity to investigate the charges of fraud.

Figure skating became a permanent event in the Olympics in the 1924 Chamonix, France games. Figure skating consists of competitors performing artistic jumps and spins while dancing to music. The 1924 Olympic games saw the introduction of speed skating into the Olympics. These game included speed skating events for men only. Women’s speed skating was introduced into the Olympics in 1960 during the Squaw Valley, California games. Speed skating consists of a race around an oval track. The fastest skater wins the competition. Ice dancing was first introduced into the Olympics during the 1976 games in Montreal, Canada. The competition includes events for men, women, and pairs. Ice dancing consists of dancing to music while performing artistic movements. Ice dancing concentrates on the artistic presentation more so than figure skating does.

96. Stanford Business Magazine February 2003 winter sports judging in the 2002 Olympics. Consider figure skating. I find evidence of vote trading throughout the figure skating judging data, http://www.gsb.stanford.edu/news/bmag/sbsm0302/ideas_decision_making.shtml

Lessons for Business from Olympics Judging Sasha Cohen at the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City PHOTOGRAPH BY DAVE BLACK February, 2003 by Eric Zitzewitz Forcing decision makers to boil their opinions to a single vote can encourage bias and vote trading, says a researcher who studied Olympic winter sport judging. In a corporate setting, empirical data on the impact of biases in group decision making is hard to come by. Luckily, a parallel setting exists that offers a rich dataset of biased decision makers coming together to attempt to reach an impartial decision: winter sports judging in the 2002 Olympics. It sounds like a good idea to throw out extreme scores when judges may be biased, but this actually makes things worse. Throwing out extreme scores throws away a lot of information. Using techniques I developed to study stock analyst forecasts, I find that extreme opinions have information, noise, and bias in the same proportions as less extreme opinions. In short, those extreme opinions are not as biased as we think. The same is true for analysts. When an analyst says something very different from the pack, listen to her! Also, turning opinions into votes actually can make vote trading easier. It’s easier to agree on "You vote for my skater" than "You add 0.1 point to whatever you would normally give my skater." I find evidence of vote trading throughout the figure skating judging data, and the judging blocs are exactly what you’d expect from the 2002 scandal: The Cold War countries of Russia, Ukraine, and Poland aligned with France on one side; the United States, Canada, Italy, and Germany on the other.

About Pravda.RU:Sports:More in detail IOC to consider results of figure skating competitions after investigating involvement of Takhtakhunov The International Olympic Committee "is shocked by statements" about a possible influence of organized crime on the results of figure skating competitions at the Salt Lake Olympic Games 2002, says the statement of IOC president Jacques Rogge, received by RIA Novosti on Friday. The US FBI suspects Alimzhan Takhtakhunov, detained in Italy, of attempts to influence the results of some figure skating competitions during the winter Olympic games. Together with the International skating federation the IOC intends to quickly investigate the circumstances of the case and, on acquiring the full information, to re-consider the issue of the Olympic skating competition at a special session of the IOC Executive Committee, the statement says. At present Rogge is away from Lausanne on a business trip, the IOC press service informed. The IOC headquarters has no information concerning his contacts with the Russian Olympic Committee. The ROC president Leonid Tyagachev, now on a visit in Montres, Switzerland, in a short statement spoke against "booming" around the statements on possible influence of criminal groups on the results of the Olympic games. The Russian skaters "have nothing to do with it", he said.
