	Biondi, owner of nine Olympic medals, including six gold, finished
fifth in the men's 100-meter freestyle race, which was won by Alexander
Popov of the Unified Team in 49.02 seconds. Brazil's Gustavo Borges took
the silver medal in 49.43 and France's Stephan Caron won the bronze in
49.50.

Article: 1001 of rec.sport.basketball.misc
	Back to reality, as today it was almost unbearably harsh to
the Germans: a thread of the needle 64-63 against Angola - it seems
that those Angolan guys do play defense, right? Spain got the hope
back with a thrilling 101-100 win over Brasil, from what I've caught
on the Radio Exterior, Spain played an excellent game and held the
lead throughout, toward the end the Brasilians came close and saw a
buzzer-beater by Schmidt miss from beyond the 3-point line. It's
nice to see the young Spaniards pull out a tough one, but at the
same time I feel sorry for Brasil that was always such fun to watch
with their wide open style - they're getting old, I guess. Again, 
no further details available (Thanks, NBC!!!).

Estou P. da vida com essa cobertura da NBC. Alias, de cada 3 artigos
nos varios newsgroups, 4 reclamam da NBC. Dois jogos quentes de basquete
(incluindo o nosso com a Espanha) foram totalmente ignorados. Nao se deram
ao luxo nem de por o resultado dos jogos. O pessoal que pagou pelo
tal triplecast tambem esta' reclamando bastante.

Eu nao tenho todos os resultados aqui disponiveis porem tenho alguns:

- A selecao masculina de basquete foi derrotada pela Espanha por 101 a 100 e
desta forma esta praticamente afastada da disputa de medalhas. Sua unica o-
portunidade agora aparece no caso desta derrotar a selecao norte-americana.

- O volei masculino do  Brasil segue em frente com uma boa campanha, tendo
derrotado a ex-Uniao-Sovietica (CIS) por 3 sets a 1. ( na sua primeira parti-
da a selecao brasileira havia derrotado a Coreia por 3 a 0).

- O Brasil conquitou ontem a noite a sua primeira medalha por intermedio do
nadador Gustavo Borges nos 100 m nado livre. Gustavo conquitou a medalha de
prata com um tempo de 49s40, sendo que o "Russo" Popov conquistou ouro (49s02).

- O judoca brasileiro Aurelio Miguel segue em frente no torneio de judo, tendo
vencido a sua luta ontem e portanto se classificando para a terceira fase do 
referido torneio.

Eu tambei sei que os iatistas brasileiros estao fazendo boa figura porem nao

I'm searching for air tickets to Brazil for sometime in the Fall, since
I'm running out of excuses to my mother-in-law and my daughter is getting
to the age she can apreciate the cousins. The problem is that the agencies 
I've contacted so far say that if I'm looking for tickets below $1000 I better
forget it. In the bras-net I've got some information about tickets as low as 
$500 (round trip, of course), but all from either Miami or New York.

Well, we have to initiate our trip in Los Angeles, and just the domestic
ticket LAX-MIA-LAX kills off the difference, on top of the random complications
with charter flights.

I would appreciate any suggestion on how to lower the cost, such as
agencies, airline promotions or alternate routes. You may reply directly to my
e-mail, and I will post a summary to the group in the near future.

The whole "Uruguay Operation" was shot down yesterday
when Sandra Fernandes Oliveira, the secreatary to businessman Alcindes Diniz,
went to Federal Senator Edwardo Suplicy (PT - Sao Paulo) and said she was
present at meetings where "Operation Urugauy" was cooked up from whole cloth.
Present at the meetings where:
Alcindes Diniz - President of ASD Enterpreses
Claudio Vieira (Administrador to the President)
Marcos Coimbra (President's cheif of staff)
Lafiete Coutinho (President of the Bank of Brazil)
and PC FARIAS himself!!!!!

ACcording to Sandra Oliveira a series of meetings were held in which
"documents" were prepared to support the "testimony:" of Claudio Vieira
which he made on Monday to the congressional committee in which he claimed that
he obtained a USA $ 5 million loan in Uruguay which was used to pay.
Collor's household expenses. According to the Folha, one of the meetings for
"Operation Urugauy" was even held in the Casa de Dinda, Collor's residence!

The bottom line: COLLOR is a GONER! Article in the interior of the paper
(20 pages of coverage total) quoted a retired general, now head of the
military club, who said that "resignation is the proper way out," and
"if need be, impeachment"!

Short expl. : because Romanian currency is not yet convertible, there 
are two parallel exchange rates: the commercial exchange rate (used in
commercial transactions) and the market rate. The commercial rate has
changed in the last two months from $1=L198 to $1=L305. The market rate
(bank and exchange offices) is $1=L350 and then again this depends on
the "bid and ask"(cerere si oferta). "Ask"-money paid to the bank to 
buy dollars and "bid"-money got when sell dollars (always bid<=ask,this
is the way the exchange offices survive). In order to make the currency
convertible, these two rates should become equal.
And finally, the black market exchange rate is as you said $1=L375-400.
All the best,
Anca

Currently CBM is working on a system extension for the Amiga computers.
Reportadly it will allow the user to select a country for which s/he wants
the operating system to communicate like.  ie. menu's are all 
translated automatically to the language of that country, as well as
dialogs/requestors.  I assume that the different character sets are
supported as well?  I do not know if Romania is one of the countries
supported or not, but it would be nice to see!

Making the bitmapped fonts would be too much of a job, but does anyone
know of a PostScript Romanian font???

I, too, have been to Romania this year, but had no real difficulties.  I did
get my Visa in advance, and I think this is best to avoid potential problems
and lines.  The people who I know who have been hassled at the border were
those who were born in Romania and where someone in the car spoke Romanian.
Since I don't, it was impossible to engage in any real communication, so
therefore, no possiblity of the kind of hassle some have endured.  The advice
to stay calm is good.

I had no problem getting gas, but I was driving a diesel.  Tourists can get
gas more easily than locals.  I stayed in the Continental Hotel in Timisoara,
where there was a Romanian tourist office, and there were able to help me with
anything I needed, including getting gas, etc.  Although I never had to use it,
they did advise me that if I was getting low on gas on the road, to flag down
a truck and ask for some gas.  I am sure you would pay dearly, but it would
get you through.

I also had no difficulty with people demanding bribes,and was even turned down
when I tried to give a "gift" to one public official that I needed a little
extra help from.  He did accept a pound of coffee for the staff coffee pot
but would accept no personal gifts.  I always take along gifts for people
because I am aware of the "shortages" they have endured in the past, and of
the great expense for common items now.

I cannot say that I enjoyed everything about my trip, but all in all, I
still Romania fascinating and would go again.
