"는에서 가장 중요한 것은 올림픽 게임은 인생에서 가장 중요한 것은 승리하지만, 투쟁없는 것처럼. 참여하는 것이 아니라 승리하지 않는 것입니다. 필수적인 것은 잘 싸운 것이 아니라 정복하지 않는 것입니다." 바론 드 쿠베르탱

평창의 2018 년 겨울 한국어 올림픽 확장 배너

그 전에 말했듯이 한 바와 같이, 5 개의 메달 그것을 다섯 반지를 만들기! 올림픽 게임에 대한 보상을 확장하기위한 시간은 늦은 감이, 깁니다. 우리는 무엇을 기다리고 있는가? 어쩌면 네 번째 고대인에게 알려진 고민 된 알루미늄, 주석의 합금을 얻을 수 있습니다. 그리고 다섯 번째 철기 시대의 반사 철을받을 수 있나요?

------------------------------------

다섯 RINGS = FIVE 훈장

새로운 게임의 원래 정신은 메달 수에 반드시 건전한 경쟁과 지역 사회에 함께 모여하는 것이 었습니다. 다섯 개의 메달이 다섯 반지는 왜 안하기 때문에 그래서 여기 제안은 무엇입니까?

네 번째와 다섯 번째 장소는 확실히 자신의 불굴의 의지와 너무 가까이 노력을 위해 뭔가를받을 자격이! 그들은 심지어 연단에 서 또는 플래그를 제기받을 필요가 없습니다. 하지만 어쩌면 그들은 측면 왼쪽과 오른쪽에 서 할 수 있습니까? 또한 그 다음 팀 스포츠 연단 대기 할 수있는 팀의 한 구성원 인 경우. 올림픽은 1896 년에 시작했을 때 오늘 그만큼 참여 등 많은 국가가 아니었다. 사실에만 14 개국 자신했다, 지금은 200여 참가국이있다.

5 개 올림픽 메달 5 올림픽 반지 경기

그래서 금속은들로 무엇을 할 것인가? 정말 중요하지 않습니다하지만 그들이 청동의 구성 요소로 가지고 감각을 만들 것입니다. 5 위에 주석을 얻는 동안 따라서 4 위의 구리를 얻는다.

그래서 6 만들 것 일 수 있지만 완전히 ..... 장소 그냥 놓친 불운 오리!

트로피에 대한 국가의 강박 관념에서 멀리 초점 걸릴 것 또 다른 아이디어는 최고 24 경쟁자 상을 제공하는 것입니다. 게임은 그리스 문화를 기반으로하고 있기 때문에 왜 최고 24 경쟁사 링 트로피를 제공하지? 우리가 이런 짓을 했을까 방법들을 때까지 그냥 기다려!

에 따라 24 올림픽 성취 반지 일 전자 그리스어 상위 24 장소, 알파에서 오메가까지 알파벳입니다.

첫째는 그리스 문화를 촉진하고, 따라서 세계는 그리스 문자에 익숙해 질 것입니다. 그리스의, 그것은 그리스을 기리기 위해 옳은 일이기 때문에 둘째, 우리 모두가 게임을 즐길 수 있습니다. 마지막으로 모든 선수 희생 확실히 그렇게 뭔가 가치가있다. 따라서 1 위가 도착 Alph에게 반지를, 2 차의 장소 베타 반지를 얻을, 3 4, 감마 반지를 얻는 일이 델타 링을 얻는다, 5 일이 (가) 이미받을 자신의 메달 외에 엡실론 반지를 가져옵니다. 6 번째 24 곳 일이 메달을하지만, 해당 위치의 반지를 얻을 수 없다. 6 일




24 일 동안의 에타와 반지를 얻는 일 위치 그것에 오메가와 반지를 가져옵니다. 25 사람 또는 팀 번째는 그리스의 반지를 얻을 수 있지만 토큰 참가자 링하지 않습니다. 

이렇게하면 지역 사회와 건전한 경쟁을위한 게임의 정신, 그리고이 게임을 시작 그리스에 관하여이다. 이 작업이 완료되면, 전 세계 사람들은 결국 삼투를 통해 그리스 알파벳 알게 될 것이다 (내가 좋아하는 그리스어 단어) .

그들도 메달을 보상 시스템을 확장하면 왜 안 또한 너무 올리브의 헌화는 함께 1 위 왕관? 분명히 원래의 그리스어 게임에서 유일한 승자는이 올리브 가지 토큰을 받았다. 1에 대한 메달 혼자 둘 수 있도록 차 와 3 차 현대 고안했다. 게다가, 입고


올림픽 메달 게임이 끝난 후 공공 장소에서 아니, 조금이라도 허세 부리는입니까? 그러나 운동 선수 최고 24 위치에 배치 여전히 자신의 물건을 잘난 체하고 다른 사람에게 영감을 수 있습니다 "공식 장소 위치 올림픽 반지."

주먹의 반지 5 개소는 메달 위치와 일치해야합니다. 따라서 1 위는 황금 반지, 2 얻는다 차 실버 링, 3 청동 반지, 4 번째 구리 반지, 5 번째 주석 반지. 장소 6 일 다음과 주석보다 덜 비싼 금속 또는 그것의 일부 합금으로 만들어진 정규 반지를 얻을.


이 남자와 여자는 열심히 일 및 시간, 돈, 그들의 젊음의 특정 측면을 희생. 그들은 뭔가 가치가있다. 이러한 아이디어 중 하나가 다음 채택하는 경우 전 올림픽 선수는 쉽게 다른 사람에게 겸손 보여줄 수있는 유품을 하고 영감을.

그들은 빛나는 올림픽의 불을 유지할 수 있습니다 어디서나 그들이 이동합니다.

 

당신은 메달 보상 시스템을 확장하는 것은 이미 현대 올림픽 일어난 사실을 알고 계십니까? 아테네 & 파리에서 처음 두 올림픽은 제 1 및 제 2 공식 메달을했다. 그리고 그들은 어떤 금을 제공하지 않았다. 대신 처음부터 실버 메달을받은 2 위는 동메달을 얻었다. 당신은 세 번째에 위치하는 경우 - 당신은 나다를 얻었다.

그것은 금메달을 나눠되었다고 세인트 루이스에서 미국 최초의 올림픽까지이지 않았다. 이 전통을 파괴해서 우리가 4 또는 제 5 위해 메달을 추가하지한다고 생각한다면 - 전통은 이미 끊어졌습니다. 

당신이 참여하는 국가에 상품의 비율에 수학을 수행 할 때 또한, 숫자의 변화는 엄청난 것입니다. 최초의 현대 올림픽 기간 동안 2 개의 메달 (제 1 및 제 2) 경쟁 (14 개) 참가국이 있었다. 이 무작위로 메달을 승리의 1 (7) 중 기회로 연결됩니다. 상황이 기회에 인도 된 경우 기본적으로 국가가 메달을 승리의 14 %의 확률로했다. * 그들이 비율이 실제로 4 약 1로 증가 세인트루이스 올림픽에서 처음 골드 메달을 나눠주고 시작했을 때, 있었기 때문에 3 개의 메달 (12 개) 참여 국가 (25 % 확률)에 대한 승리. 빨리 감기 리오 - 2016 올림픽 (206 개) 참여 국가들과 - 메달을 승리의 비율이 약 1 69에 있습니다 에 대한 메달을 이기기의 1 % 기회 비율의 측면에서.
 

이제 그들이 메달을 순대 2 % 승리의 기회를 제기 (42)에 대한 1로, 상위 5 개 장소를 오 개 메달로 비율 변화를 확장한다고 가정 해 봅시다. 당신은 넷째주는 것을 걱정하고 다섯 번째 메달을 1 평가 절하합니다 그렇다면 ^일 , 2 ^차 또는 3 ^번째 - 인 1 % 큰 소란을? 
 

단지 12 % - 당신은 2016 리오 올림픽 번호를 24 링 알파벳 상을 계산할 때 이제 링에서 우승의 순수한 기회의 비율은 약 1 ~ 8.5이다. 12 %가 아테네에서 최초의 현대 올림픽의 원래 비율 또는 비율에 훨씬 더 가깝다합니다.
 

그래서 왜!? 모든 노력을 생각하고 그들의 훈련에 넣어 그 선수 희생 - 상심, 시간, 눈물, 땀, 혈액을. 물론 그들은 메달을 수상 또는 적어도 그들의 헌신과 불굴의 겸손 토큰을 챙겨에서 더 나은 샷을 가치가있다. 시간은 올림픽 메달의 보상 시스템을 확장하게되었다. 

올림픽 반지에 대한 확장 된 아이디어는 모든 참가자가 반지를 얻을 수 있다는 것입니다. 그들은 24 이상을 배치하면 그들은 5 위 이상 그들이 메달을 얻는 경우에 그들은 거기에 새겨진 그리스 문자를 얻을. 아래 25 걸거나 운동 선수, 아마도 년, 장소 및 로고를 선택 호스트 국가의 로고 반지를 얻을. 몇 탐낼 금,은, 청동, 구리, 주석 반지를 얻을 것이다 동안 따라서 모든 선수가 반지를 얻을, 일부는 일반 참가자 반지를 얻을 것이다, 그리스을 얻을 것이다 일부는, 링 글자.  

올림픽 깃발이 다섯 반지를 가지고 마지막으로 이후 - 오 개 메달은 오 '공식'대륙의 조화로운 전체를합니다. 이 아이디어는 공식 올림픽 신조와 일치한다 :

"는에서 가장 중요한 것은 올림픽 게임은 인생에서 가장 중요한 것은 승리하지만, 투쟁없는 것처럼. 참여하는 것이 아니라 승리하지 않는 것입니다. 필수적인 것은 잘 싸운 것이 아니라 정복하지 않는 것입니다." 바론 드 쿠베르탱

Olympic Rings Inspire Zeus to Expand the Medals

Look at my fingers! One, two, three, four, and five! I said five medals for the next Olympics! There are five rings! Thus the top five athletes get a medal! Otherwise you'll get a lightening bolt up your... you know where!

Medals Awarded for 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th - Matching the 5 Rings, Medals - Mantra : Russian 2014 Olympics

-------------------------------------------------------------------

As it has been said before, 5 medals make it a five rings!  The time for expanding the rewards for the Olympic games is long, long overdue.  What are we waiting for?  Maybe fourth can get the a pewter, an alloy of tin, known to the ancients.  And fifth can get the iron, reflective of the Iron Age?

------------------------------------

FIVE RINGS = FIVE MEDALS

The original spirit of the new games was to come together in healthy competition and community, not necessarily for a medal count. So here is a suggestion, since there are five rings why not five medals?

Fourth and fifth place certainly deserve something for their fortitude and so close effort! They don't even have to stand on the podium or get their flags raised. But maybe they can stand on the flanking left and right sides? Also if it's a team sport then only one member of the team can stand by the podium. When the Olympics started in 1896 there weren't as many nations participating as their are today. In fact their were only 14 nations, now there are over 200 participating nations.

5 Olympic Rings match with 5 Olympic Medals

So what would the metals be made up of? It really does not matter but it would make sense to have them made up of the constituent elements of bronze. Thus fourth place gets copper while fifth place gets tin.

So that would make 6th place the unlucky duck who just missed out..... but not completely!

Another idea that would take focus away from national obsession for trophies, is to give out awards to the best 24 competitors. Since the Games are based on Greek culture why not give out ring trophies to the top 24 competitors? Just wait till you hear how we would do this!

24 Olympic Achievement Rings based on the Greek Alphabet from Alpha to Omega, for the top 24 places.

First it will promote Greek Culture, and thus the world will become familiar with Greek letters. Second, we all enjoy the games because of the Greeks, it's the right thing to do to honor the Greeks. Finally all those athletes who sacrificed so much certainly deserve something.


Thus 1st place gets the Alpha ring, the 2nd place gets the Beta ring, 3rd gets a Gamma ring, 4th gets a Delta ring, and 5th gets an Epsilon ring in addition to their medals the receive already.

6th place to 24th would not get a medal but only rings of their respective position. 6th gets a ring with Eta on it while 24th position gets a ring with Omega on it. The person or team in 25th does not get a Greek Ring, but only a token participant ring. 

Doing this is in the spirit of the games for community and healthy competition, and in respect to the Greeks who started these games. If this is done, people all over the world will eventually know the Greek Alphabet through osmosis (my favorite Greek word).

If they ever expand the medal reward system, why not also crown 1st place with a wreath of olives too? Apparently in the original Greek Games only the winner received this olive branch token. Medals for 1st let alone 2nd and 3rd were modern contrivances.


Besides, wearing an Olympic medal in public after the games are over is a wee bit ostentatious, no? But the athletes who placed in the top 24 positions can still strut their stuff and inspire others with "Official Place Position Olympic Rings."

The rings of fist five places should match their medal position. Thus 1st place gets a golden ring, 2nd a silver ring, 3rd a bronze ring, 4th a copper ring, and 5th a tin ring. Places 6th and below get a regular ring made out of a less expensive metal than tin or some alloy of it.


These men and women worked hard and sacrificed time, money, and certain aspects of their youth. They deserve something. If any of these ideas are adopted then former Olympic athletes can easily show others a humble memento and inspire.

They can keep the fire of the Olympics shining wherever they go.

 

Did you know that expanding the medal reward system has already happened for the modern Olympics? The first two Olympics at Athens & Paris only gave out official medals for first and second. And they did not give out any gold. Instead first place received a silver medal and second place got a bronze medal. If you placed third – you got nada.

It wasn’t until the first American Olympics in St. Louis that gold medals were handed out. So if you think we shouldn’t add medals for fourth or fifth just because it breaks with tradition – tradition has already been broken. 

Furthermore, when you do the math on the ratio of prizes to participating nations the shift in numbers is staggering. During the first modern Olympics there were 14 participating nations competing for 2 medals (first and second). This leads to a 1 out of 7 chance of randomly winning a medal. Basically, if things were led to chance a nation had a 14% chance of winning a medal.* When they started handing out gold medals for first place at the St. Louis Olympics the ratio actually increased to about 1 to 4, because there were 3 medals to win for 12 participating nations (25% chance). Fast forward to the Rio-2016 Olympics with 206 participating nations – the ratio of winning a medal is about 1 to 69. In terms of a percentages that’s about a 1% chance of winning a medal.
 

Let’s say they expand to five medals for the top five places, the ratio changes to about 1 to 42, raising the chances of winning a medal a measly 2%. So if you are worried that giving fourth and fifth a medal will devalue 1^st, 2^nd or 3^rd - is one percent a big fuss? 
 

Now when you calculate the 24 ring-alphabet awards with 2016-Rio Olympic numbers the pure chance ratio of winning ring is about 1 to 8.5 – which is only 12%. Note 12% is a lot closer to the original ratio or percentage of the first modern Olympics at Athens.
 

So why not!? Think of all that hard work and sacrifice those athletes put into their training – the heartache, time, tears, sweat, and blood. Certainly they deserve a better shot at winning a medal or at least snatching a humble token of their dedication and fortitude. The time has come to expand the Olympic medal reward system. 

An expanded idea for the Olympic rings is that all participants get a ring.  If they place 24 or higher they get a Greek letter carved in it, if they place 5th or higher they get a medal.  Athletes who place 25th or below get a ring with logo of the host nations choosing, perhaps the year, place, and logo.  Thus all athletes get a ring, some will get the generic participant ring, some will get a Greek lettered ring, while a few will get a coveted gold, silver, bronze, copper, and tin ring.  

Finally since the Olympic flag has five rings - five medals make a harmonious whole for the five 'official' continents.  This idea is consistent with the official Olympic Creed:

"THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IN THE OLYMPICS IS NOT TO WIN BUT TO TAKE PART, JUST AS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IN LIFE IS NOT THE TRIUMPH BUT THE STRUGGLE.  THE ESSENTIAL THING IS NOT TO HAVE CONQUERED BUT TO HAVE FOUGHT WELL"  -PIERRE DE COUBERTIN

2018 Olympic Flag with Katagulna, a new Japanese-Korean scipture

Korean scripture is amazingly beautiful.  It takes the architecture of Chinese and mixes it with an original Korean phonetic script that effectively mixes the two.  Such that, the combined phonetics create unique Korean-ji Kanji Characters.  This has been previously done with the Roman-English script, but now the Japanese Katakana script has been modified to follow the path as laid by King Sejong. 

Anyone who can read Japanese Katakana will recognize that the message in between the Olympic Rings and English title spells out "Pyeon Chan".  If you don't see it take a second look.

And yes, Pyeon Chan is spelled out in Japanese as "Pyo-n-cha-n" without a "gu."

Note that Hangul was created just before... Columbus sailed the Ocean Blue in 1492, in 1443, when you and me were nowhere to be.

Pyeong Chang - 2018 Winter Olympics Flag in Korenglish

Korean is a very very unique language.  In this case we have new script called Korenglish or Hanglish, which is a mash of the Korean written form with English letters.  In this case the name of the host city Pyong Chang can be decoded in the Korea-funked letters of the Roman Alphabet, which is where the English Alphabet comes from.  If you don't see it at first look closely at the four letters and you'll see it!                            

If you have trouble read Hanglish, which you should if you are a native English speaker, then here is a fun message.  The English letters should slowly pop out at you when you read the message.  Trump and Kim were never going to war, we have the Olympics to celebrate after all!

Vexillology Day

October 1st is vexillology day.  Due to the publication of the first journal dedicated to vexillology.

But vexillology day started last year.
