By MINA MOHAMMADI Deputy News Editor After China’s leader Xi Jinping warned of the “accelerating spread” of coronavirus on Saturday, uni- versities across China, including NYU Shanghai, delayed the start of the spring academic semester. Parents and students, however, say it isn’t enough. This new virus — also known as 2019-nCoV — has killed at least 56 people and infected 2,000 since its discovery in the city of Wuhan.

  • International Olympic Committee Bans Political Statements by Athletes at Games
    International Olympic Committee bans political statements by athletes at games Jan. 9, 2020 By Associated Press LAUSANNE, Switzerland — No taking a knee at the Olympics. No hand gestures with political meaning. No disrespect at medal ceremonies. The International Olympic Committee published guidelines Thursday specifying which types of athlete protests will not be allowed at the 2020 Tokyo Games. Athletes are prohibited by the Olympic Charter's Rule 50 from taking a political stand in the field of play — like the raised fists by American sprinters Tommie Smith and John Carlos at the 1968 Mexico City Games. Today’s Olympians now know more about which acts of “divisive disruption” will lead to disciplinary action in Tokyo. They can still express political opinions in official media settings or on social media accounts. Athletes who break protest rules at the July 24-Aug. 9 Tokyo Games face three rounds of disciplinary action — by the IOC, a sport’s governing body and a national Olympic body. The new guidelines come after two American athletes were reprimanded by the U.S. Olympic Committee for medal podium protests at the Pan-American Games in August in Lima, Peru. Fencer Race Imboden kneeled and hammer thrower Gwen Berry raised a fist in protest. Both were put on probation for 12 months, a period that covers the Tokyo Olympics. Other protests in 2019 included swimmers from Australia and Britain refusing to join world championship gold medalist Sun Yang on the podium because the Chinese star has been implicated in doping violations. “It is

We are very excited to work with Cain and we will begin customization and implementation this week. • Received response from audit and tax services RFP and selected 3 firms to present to the Audit committee. • After research and analysis, selected Intacct Accounting Software as being the best solution and fit for US Fencing accounting and reporting needs. Submitted to the Board for approval. • It should be noted that we have shown progress in the area of our budget controls and purchases order approval process. We consistently receive competing bids for all purchases and we have restructured the approval control with our service vender to control cost better. 2 Progress charts- Budget progress 3 YTD Income and Expenses (as of 5/31/2013) $6,000,000.00 $5,000,000.00 $4,000,000.00 $3,000,000.00 Aug '12 - Mar 13 Aug '11 -Mar 12 Aug '10 - Mar 11 $2,000,000.00 Aug '09 - Mar 10 $1,000,000.00 $- Membership National USOC and USFF Total income Total Expenses Net Income Revenue Registration grants $(1,000,000.00) 4 YTD Income by Class (as of 5/31/2013) $40,670.45 $237,489.67 $138,790.25 $401,384.36 $207,445.57 $1,429,496.24 Membership Revenue National Registration USOC and USFF grants International Registration Fees Marketing Revenue $849,378.00 Insurance Revenue Donations Other $1,932,243.08 5 Cash Balance by Month (End of Month) $800,000.00 $700,000.00 $600,000.00 $500,000.00 2012-13 $400,000.00 2011-12 2010-11 $300,000.00 2009-10 $200,000.00 $100,000.00 $- Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun July 6 Net Cash Flow by Month $800,000.00 $600,000.00 $400,000.00 $200,000.00 2012-13 2011-12 2010-11 $- Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun July $(200,000.00) $(400,000.00) $(600,000.00) Member Services • All Academic Team – has been announced; committee is currently reviewing scholarship submissions.
