Look.  This is just between you and me, okay?  Normally I wouldn't tell
anybody my problems, but it's just that this thing has snowballed and
snowballed until it's been blown WAY out of proportion and it's begun
to threaten my mental equilibrium.  My proctologist told me I need to
externalize these feelings - get them out in the open - where I can
distance myself from them and perhaps gain a more dispassionate
perspective from which to work toward solving the core dilemma.  That's
easy for her to say!
Let me start from the beginning.
The Dept. of Redundancy Dept. (where I am currently employed as a
supervisor) is a state-funded operation.  This is the third year in a
row that our budget has been drastically cut - a result of unilateral
proration that is crippling the state of Alabama - and I received the
painful news that I would have to make further cutbacks on my staff.
This is the third time in as many years that I've had to make the
difficult decision which of my fine workers to lay off.  I discussed
this with my supervisor and we came to the mutual conclusion that the
cut would have to come in my morning crew, which only consists of two
workers, Jack and Amy.  They've both been superlative employees in the
short time that they've worked for me and have proved equally capable
in the performance of their duties, so it wasn't going to be an easy
choice to make.  They had no idea the axe was poised to strike again
and their feelings of job security that I now knew to be unfounded did
little to make the task before me less onerous. I decided I would
secretly follow them this morning and observe their work habits.  The
one who showed the most drive and enthusiasm would be the one I would
ask to stay.
I'd followed them for an hour when Amy left her post and went to the
water fountain.  She took a couple of aspirin and leaned against the
wall for a minute before returning to her assignment. About thirty
minutes later she again went to the fountain.  Jack, meanwhile, had
continued working diligently. After Amy left her post for the third
time within two hours I sadly decided that she would be the one who had
to go.
I approached her from my hidden vantage point and confronted her at the
water fountain as she was washing down another aspirin.
"Amy, I don't know how to tell you this" I said, "so I'm just going to
come right out and say that I'm faced with a very hard decision right
now.  I'm either going to have to lay you or Jack off."
She looked shocked and told me, "Well, I'm afraid you're just going to
have to jack off - I've got a splitting headache"!
What do I do now?  She completely misunderstood!
Oh, why does life have to be so complex?

I agree with you to a point, but let's not confuse the Dream Team with Charles
Barkley.  After viewing the videotape, I can't imagine what prompted the "elbow
incident, but it appears, from news reports, that his team mates came down on
him pretty hard for his behavior.  Yes, they could use a little more humility.
Maybe that incident will jolt them into awareness.

I also agree with Mr. Kamen's remarks concerning atheleticism and the Olympics,
however, because the United States is a world power and receives a lot of
global attention concerning a myriad of topics, displays of "arrogance" such as
those by Barkley on the basketball court are inappropriate as well as dangerous
to the image of the United States, especially for developing nations.  Politics
and sport participation is inevetable as long as you pit nation against nation.
However, our athletes and coaches need to pay attention to how our athletes are
perceived in WINNING AND LOSING since these are the images that many people
will take away from these "Games" and other international sporting events.

I agree that the dream team has as much a right to be there as any of the
other professional athletes.  I also commend their efforts to not appear
arrogant or superior (maybe with the exception of Charles Barkley, who at
times gets a little carried away).  In fact, I think the media and the
commentators are at fault for the excessive hype and arrogant attitudes.

How we forget that hindsight vision is 20/20.  Would the definition of
a contender be different if one of the teams the Americans have played
had only lost by five points? by ten points?  Should we compete in the
Olympics first and then disqualify any team for a medal that wins all
its games by that many points?  How can you decide a priori that the
Americans would win all their games?  Is there no room for injury?
or bad biorhythms?
  I challenge Mr. Albrecht to state a priori which

Subject:      reply to Dr. Kamen

As I mentioned in the first line of my posting, I agree with many of the
points Dr. Kamen makes.  Particularly that anyone meeting the criteria for
participation sould be allowed to compete.  NOWHERE did I say the "dream team"
should be banned from Olympic competition. My issue was with what I considered
to be misleading comparisons between the domination of basketball by the NBA
All-Stars and the domination other countries have had in other Olympic events
(i.e.,swimming, athletics, gymnastics, soccer) and the implication (at least
my inference) that it is justified because "they did it to us first." Also, I
seriously doubt if many people had to rely on "20/20 hindsight" to realize the
NBA All-Stars would be untouchable (and an injury or two won't make any
difference e.g., Magic Johnson).Let me try to diffuse this so we don't clutter
up the list.  I would personally rather watch a group of college all-stars
playing their hearts out in what they perceived to be the event of a lifetime
than this basketball spectacle. They would still be "true" contenders
(although not a "lock") for the gold.  By the way, the Americans have always
dominated international basketball in the manner in which Dr. Kamen discribes
eastern bloc and Europeans dominating other sports.  Only two other countries
have EVER won gold medals in Olympic basketball competition. Under the current
rules, however, the NBA All-Stars are eligible and thus should certainly be
allowed to PARTICIPATE despite the fact they are not, by any stretch of the
imagination, "COMPETING" for anything (Note what I consider to be an
important distinction between Olympic participation and Olympic competition.)

House of Representative Bill H.R. 4418

[Source: Friday, 26 June 1992 13:38:06 EDT

There is a bill, currently being considered by the U. S. House of
Representatives which would RETURN THE STIPENDS OF GRADUATE STUDENTS
TO A TAX EXEMPT STATUS.  Prior to the Reagan-Bush (No New Taxes!) era,
Graduate Student Stipends were not taxed, and Tom Lewis (R- Florids)
has proposed a bill which not only would make stipends TAX-EXEMPT, but
would also RETURN ALL TAXES PAID SINCE 1986 on Grad. income.  The Bill
is H.R. 4 418 and is currently under consideration, though I am not
sure if it has cleared committee or not.

To support the bill, call or write your local congressman and ask them
to support it.

If you do not know who your rep. is, call (800) 347-1997 (THE FEDERAL
INFOR MATION CENTER) and ask.

Come on folks, lets support our own interests.  All this has about

This reminds me of a story of two fathers at a swim meet who were making it
interesting by betting on the outcome of races.  One kept betting on lane 4 and
winning to the other's consternation and then anger when he found out why.

Swimmers are seeded into the final race according to their times from heats or
according to their previous best time in the current season for the heats.
Heats are seeded in a rather complicated fashion which I won't go into, but for
the finals the fastest swimmer is put into lane 4 (in an 8 lane pool), then, in
order, the rest are put into lanes 5, 3, 6, 2, 7, 1, 8. No lane is "faster"
than any other, but usually lane 4 is a good bet because that's where the
fastest swimmer is.  However, if a swimmer swims poorly in heats (e.g. because
he/she is not a "morning person") or holds back in the heats to save up for the
finals, he/she may not end up in lane 4 and yet win the race.  This strategy
has risks, however, like missing the finals altogether!  Many races have been
won by swimmers in outside lanes, although if you are betting, lanes 4 and 5
are the best bets.  The underlying principle is that no swimmer will be more
than half a pool width from the fastest swimmer.  A well seeded race will look
like this (if swimmers don't change their performance from heats to finals,
which is rarely the case):

               8
                 7

Whether it's basketball, volleyball, or any other sport, hot heads abound.
I didn't see the elbow, but I did read Michael Jordan's comments about it.
"Charles is Charles" and then he goes on the say that behavior like that is
uncalled for. A bunch of computer jockeys discussing the action won't
change the "behavior", but his teammates, or peers, may at least get him
thinking.

And so much talk about Barkley, how 'bout the volleyball player who cost
his team the match? And I'll bet that he's not making millions playing
volleyball.

I haven't read a thing on the list about such athletes as Pablo Casalles (I
apologize if I misspelled his name), the winner of the men's 100M
butterfly. NBC did a nice piece on him, how he didn't even make the '88
team and left competitive swimming. His comeback, the work he put in, the
death of his mother, are the things that make for heros. Jerks will be
jerks, let's not give them the time of day. Let's put our greater efforts
on the good and the admirable.

An aside, whether it's basketball or tetherball (or broadcasting), we
should put our best. The USA should not be apologetic about beating anyone
by 45 points. We've got the best team, we should win. Why handicap anyone?
I would like to see the same thing in baseball, although I realize that
would be much more difficult being the season. However, I would think that
an all-star team from triple-A could possibly be put together. (I agree
that the media contributes to much of the arrogent portrayal. Some of the
questions they ask, i.e. "You must feel shocked and dismayed," the reporter
said to Anita Nall after loosing the 200M breast stroke in which she was
the favorite, "but how do you feel?")

In addition to Mark Sandilands comment on swimming lanes, another factor
I recall hearing about, is that the water in the middle of the pool is
less turbulent. The swimmers in the outer lanes will swimm in choppier
water than the swimmers in the middle.

I'm having the same problem.  I thought it was just my system.  Sure makes
things hard to read at times.
