The ancient Greeks invented the Olympic games. The first games were held in 776 BC. For a very long time, only men were allowed

to compete. The games were held every four years. Different Greek city-states would all participate, so they would stop fighting wars while the games were going on. This meant the states had to cooperate. Today, different countries participate in games, and men and women are both allowed to participate.

Marvin became a widow at 38 years, she will receive benefits until her last child who is 8 years becomes 16 years old. By then, Mavin is 46 years. The children will each receive benefits until they turn 18 by then Mavin is 48 years old. Then the blackout period begins. Mavin has up to retirement age of 60 years to remain in the blackout period. So 60 years - 48 years = 12 years. Therefore, Mavin has up to 12 years to be in the "blackout period".
