Funny and sometimes shocking stories behind the scenes of major sports events are revealed for the first time in this unusual book. Alex Cheng, president of a company in California that was the North American distributor for Omega Sports Timing, shares his observations in a candid and casual style. His company, Seagull, Inc., was involved in timing systems and scoreboards for the Olympics in Montreal and Lake Placid, Pan Am Games in Mexico City, Commonwealth Games in Edmonton, the Canada Games and many events in skiing, swimming, track and field, car racing, horse racing, rodeos, boat racing, skateboard races, firemen's musters and other sports. This book is sheer entertainment for anyone interested in a variety of sports from a new perspective or how a small company coped with a somewhat frenetic business. At the same time, you will learn fascinating sports facts that will impress your friends. For example: - Did you know runners are timed to 1/100 of a second based on the first part of the torso crossing the line? How is this decided with absolute accuracy? - Did you know the Montreal Olympics main stadium faced a grid lock of construction cranes and was only half finished when the Games began? And this is common with many Olympics! - Did you know the beeping count-down clock next to skiers about to start their race has nothing to do with their actual start time? - Have you wondered what it was like in the hockey stadium on the night of the "Miracle on Ice" victory in Lake Placid? - Do you know why Olympic style sailboat racing is amazingly similar to barrel racing in rodeos? (You won't find this anywhere else!)

Count on Emma for coming up with a surprise ending!

First, there was People's Republic, then Indian Country, then Wildfire, and Collapse. Then in Crisis, America split into two nations, red and blue, side by side, and at each other's throats. Now comes The Split, the sixth novel in the bestselling thriller series that began as fiction and every day looks more and more like reality. With the USA ripped apart by the hatred and corruption of the left, red America is building a country based on the principles of the Constitution, while in the People's Republic of North America, the brakes are off as blue America hurtles toward total social justice tyranny. With the election to replace a senile president approaching, political players within the new blue America jockey for power regardless of the cost. Into this maelstrom, Kelly Turnbull is given a simple job - bring out a half-mad mathematical genius whose computer program could control the outcome of the election. But nothing is ever simple. From a mission into Cuba to an infiltration from Canada, from guerilla war in the Adirondacks to an impossible heist in which Kelly must team up with a renegade radio host and pack of Boston mobsters, the action never stops. With his trusty Wilson Combat CQB .45 and his bad attitude, Kelly Turnbull again does what he does best - lay waste to leftists. You don't assign Kelly Turnbull a mission. You unleash him. This time, he's got a score to settle - and he intends to do it with extreme prejudice.
