Subject: Another idea for compulso...
>what I meant to say was to incorporate what compulsories
stand for (basic skill, amplitude, taking things to the fullest etc.) into
the COP's somehow<
The compulsory exercises were (and are) supposed to be a based on simple
gymnastics skills that all gymnasts possessed and that were used to execute
the more difficult skills done in the optional routines. The things that
Brian mentions *are* considered in the code and always have been. The problem
is this . . . for the people who remember such luminaries as Zakharova,
Mukhina, Kim, and Filatova (for example) they were the "tricksters"
considered "weak" in dance and artistry. Comparing them to even today's most
elegant gymnasts they hold up as models of superior grace and artistry...and
these were the clods!
I'm not saying that everything from the past is better then today but it
seems as if gymnastics has wandered away from it's purpose; and in a rather
brief period of time at that (I'd say it started in '82 or '83... a little
over ten years). Every circus performer or acrobat can do tricks but a
"gymnast" was a combination of athletic abilty and graceful artistry.
Compulsories are nice; for me and other hard core fans but realistically
they no longer truly help the sport all that much. The scores are based more
on who *should* excel then who *does* excel. Optionals are all that matters
for AA and EF which are the big ticket events anyway. Few people truly
consider gymnastics a team sport probably because in the US (and most other
Western nations) it's not. Teams are made up of diverse girls who don't
really know each other and coaches who fight amongst themselves to get their
face on TV the most and bad mouth the other coaches on his "team." They are
almost always far less mature then the overly grown-up 14 year olds that they
instruct.
I agree that the code must be changed but then you must get the judges to
enforce the code which is a whole other matter indeed. The attitude in
general must be changed. I mean has there ever been a code that an
industrious coach can't get around? I think that at the almost impossible
rate at which the sport is growing and changing rewriting the rules every
four years is no longer enough.

For all you folks lucky (?) enough to get the oh-so-amazing Television Food
Network. Bart and Nadia's workout/cooking show called the Seven Day Workout
is on every morning at 7am and 10 am EDT. The "chemistry" between them is a
must-see. Nadia has the best on air presence since Nancy Kerrigan. ;-)

Tell me Susan: do they workout WHILE cooking, eat while cooking, or eat while
working out, and most importantly can Nadia get a word in edge-wise ? ;-)
BTW- I think her knees have suffered a tad more than Nancy's.

I don't know what you may be referring to. Yes Kevin has left (He did teach at the
Browns summer camp) but Rita is still VERY much around. As for any "Brown's"
gymnasts, perhaps you've heard of Mohini Bhardwaj (2nd Vault, 3rd BB PR Cup)
and Jenni Beathard (1st UB, 3rd AA PR Cup). My daughter is on the Browns level 6
team. I plan on checking into the Wendy/Brandy situation this week.

Subject: early retirement
It's been a month since Sara took early retirement from gymnastics...for
various and sundry reasons (good ones which I'll not go into on a public
forum.) We've supported her with this decision, which was a difficult and
brave one to make on her part. Needless to say, there's been major changes
in our lifestyle - and it's also amazing the changes that a month off of
intense training has made on her body. She's spent the last four weeks at
various sports camps - tennis, basketball, and field hockey and has done
very well at all of them (even though she's short!) Last night was the first
time she really made a comment about gymnastics saying she'll really miss
flying on bars. But no, I don't think she'll go back. She's loving her life
right now...

Subject: Goodwill Games Preview Show
I discovered this morning (I'm not usually up at 8 am on Sundays) that
there's a Goodwill Games Preview show on CNN Sunday mornings. Did anyone
happen to catch the gymnastics segment when it aired (not today)? While I'm
asking if anyone happens to have the '93 Exhibition Tour with Bogie and
Scherbo (and Dawes and Miller) that aired in October or November on TBS or
TNT on tape please *PLEASE* let me know.
FYI, there's one more Goodwill preview show next Sunday morning on CNN
(though the games start Saturday on TBS). Also, the USAIGC Nationals are on
*today* (Sunday the 17th) on Prime Ticket (1 pm PDT).

Well, Billy who lives down in Florida and visits Brown's on occasion told
me that Brandy was going to try for a comeback. But Susan just wrote me today
and said that Brandy's changed her mind (again, this info came from Billy). But
Wendy is supposedly still going to come back. Maybe Billy himself can fill us
in on what exactly is going on with the Brown's gymnasts!

Whoops!Somewhere along the line,my information was misunderstood by
someone.I didn't say Brandy changed her mind,I only said that Wendy
seemed to be pursuing her comeback more intensely.(Brandy is training
a few days a week,while Wendy is training full time)This is just what
I had HEARD not so I may be wrong.Sorry for the mixup!

Subject: Men's NCAA updates and changes
UPDATE:
The eastern regional site has been chosen - Penn State will be hosting in
March, I don't remember the dates - when they decide to become available to
my memory I will post them. Anyone who can plan to get up there for the
weekend though will have a wonderful show and time. PSU does a great job
in every way at making gymnastics an incredible experience.
I havn't heard on the nationals yet.
Base scores through the season will be 9.5 the only time international
scoring will go into effect will be Event Finals at Nationals.
----------------------------------------------
CHANGES:
They will be doing a 6 men up and 4 scores count to the team score. This
is designed to help in making teams more competetive who lack depth. I
would say this will create a very exciting nationals - might prove to be
something worth coming to, especially since it may be the last NCAA
nationals for the men.
Event finals will not only have international scoring base, they will also
use a 6 judge panel with the 4 middle scores being averaged. They are
hoping that this will help move things along time wise, and give a more
accurate reflection of where the gymnast stands in the international
picture. Not to mention the fact that 10's are even harder to get in this
type of situation.

The tentative date according to the Penn State folks (as of 10:30 July
18th) is Saturday, April 8th, 1995. This is still subject to change, but
should be set by next week.

Subject: Need graphics/icons
Hi all!
The new job and associated life changes have kept me from posting
to the list as much as I used to. (And I'm sure some of you are *very*
thankful for that!) But it's good to see so many people have been willing
to jump right in and fill the void.
I need some help from you all. I'm writing a PC-based program,
and I would like to include a small graphic of each of the four women's
apparatuses: vault, bars, beam, and floor. I can't use GIFs of specific
gymnasts on these events. I need something generic. If you know where
I might be able to ftp something suitable (or, bless you, if someone less
graphically-challenged than myself were willing to whip up a quick .BMP
graphic), please drop me some personal e-mail (address below). No need
in cluttering up the list with replies. If, for some reason, you too are
looking for such an item, again drop me mail and I'll keep you updated.
Thanks in advance.

Subject: News on Christy Henrich
The AP reports that Christy Henrich (a member of the USA's 1989 Worlds
team [4th at Worlds on UB], many time National team member, almost
1988 Olympian [she was 10th at Trials]) is improving, but remains
hospitalized. For those who don't know, Henrich is fighting both
anorexia nervosa and bulimia. Her weight, which was about 93 lbs when
she was competing, according to AP, was at 60 lbs one year ago. No
word as to what her weight is now.
Christy Henrich is in ICU of the Medical Center of Independence in
Independence, MO.
The fundraising drive of last year organized by a support group in
Missourri and supplemented by help from the USGF brought in $34,000.
However, the medical expenses exceeded $100,000. Henrich also had the
free services of a Dr. Gail Vaughn as part of "the counseling effort",
but AP reports that Henrich stopped seeing Dr. Vaughn after a while.
That's all I know! (Oh yeah-- words of support or cards for Henrich
can be sent to her at the USGF; 201 S. Capitol Ave #300; Indianapolis,
IN 46225.)

To All:
The new women's gymnastics assistant coach at UCLA is Mark Cook of Clovis
Academy. It seems to me I've met him before. I think he's a regular on the
Prodigy bulletin board. I'm going to have to check.

Subject: small question...
...excuse me for interrupting, but I have a question...
I'm a 23 yr old male who lives in Jacksonville Florida. I have had a deep
love of gymnastics for a long while and had a bit of exposure to them my
first year at college in NY. But now, as I'm no longer goingto school
there, I no longer have much acces to gymnastic equipment. I still have
the urge to practice though.
My question is, does anyone have any recommendations as to how I could
enjoy the flexibility and strength that gymnastics provides without a
gymnastics "setting"? I'm rather tall (6'2") so competition is out
probably, but I'm still yearning to develop the skills a male gymnast has.
If anyone could advise, I'd greatly appreciate it..

Subject: Team Worlds
Women...
I agree with most that Romania has the depth, consistancy, difficulty, and
name recogntion that will most likely spell victory for them in Dortmund.
Gogean, Milos (possibly her swan song?), Hategan, Cacavean and company will
form a strong nucleus.
Russia has the most talented athletes - IMHO - but lacks depth and
consistancy. Fabrichnova, Khokina, and Kochetkova are shoe-in's and hopefully
people like Golub, Vandesheyeva (she's so awesome!), and Nikolyaeva are
healthy and can compete.
The US will most likely field Dawes & Miller as our only really strong
athletes. Borden, Fontaine, Webster, Meduna, and a few others will most
likely challenge for the other 5 spots available. Generally, it's a weak team
and we'll have to fight it out with the Chinese for the bronze. If they have
- for a change - consistancy on their side they could pull it out.
Ukraine and Belarus are the dark horses...If Belarus can field both
Yurkina's, Piskoun, Tarasevich, and Polozhkova they have a shot at the
bronze. Ukraine's hopes for a medal are more realistic. Lysenko (retired?),
Kalinina, Stovbchataya (retired?), Kschnik, Boulkhova are a strong
foundation.
Men...
Russia pretty much has it locked up if Arkaev can assemble a team without
bickering (meaning swallow his pride & let Kharkov and others not at Krugloye
compete). Karbonenko, Voropaev, Shaebav, Nemov, and on and on are truly
unbeatable if they show up and hit at least half their sets.
Ukraine for silver in my book. Belarus could also be a factor if they can
assemble anything beyond Scherbo and Ivankov which won't be enough for a team
comp.
China (if they actually hit could do far better but the odds against that are
so high), Italy, and my dark horse pick Hungary all have shots at the bronze.
Also never count Japan out no matter how pathetic they've been lately.
