3. Appendix.8.1 Appendix A The USTA Anti-Doping Program The USTA is committed to ensuring fair and drug-free competition. Individual athletes bear the ultimate responsibility to choose for themselves to compete fairly and drug-free. Participation in USTA tournaments constitutes consent to be tested for drugs. Use of banned substances and doping methods is cheating and may result in penal- ties, including suspension and permanent disqualification. The USTA has developed a program of education, testing, research, penalties, and rehabilitation to maintain the integrity of tennis and protect the health and rights of all tennis players. The USTA Board of Directors has adopted and supports the USTA Anti-Doping Program. Information about the program may be obtained from the USA Tennis Sport Science Department and your local USTA section. It can also be viewed on the USTA Web site at www.usta.com under USA Tennis/USA Tennis Player Development. Further information can be obtained by calling 888-354-8782. DEFINITIONS* alcohol—a drug that depresses the central nervous system and af- fects coordination and fine hand-eye movements. Nevertheless, breath or blood alcohol levels may be determined at the request of the *Some of these definitions were adapted with permission from the United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA), Colorado Springs, Colorado. 58 The USTA Anti-Doping Program responsible authorities (i.e., WADA, IOC, NOC, USOC, IF, and/or NGB), and positive tests may lead to sanctions. Alcohol is the most widely abused drug in the country, yet it does not generally improve sports performance. anabolic agents—a prohibited class of agents made up of the male hormone testosterone and its synthetic derivatives. Natural testosterone regulates, promotes, and maintains physical and sexual development. Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) medications—the most commonly prescribed medications (e.g., Ritalin and Cylert) to treat ADD and ADHD that contain prohibited stimulants. Athletes who are pre- scribed these medications should consult their physician and National Governing Body as soon as possible. The USTA rule allows for a Request for Medical Exemption to be filed by the player’s physician; if granted, the athlete is allowed to use the prohibited substance. blood doping—the administration of blood, red blood cells, and re- lated blood products to an athlete, which may be preceded by with- drawal of blood from the athlete, who continues to train in such a blood-depleted state. caffeine—a central nervous system stimulant that is found in coffee, tea, chocolate, and soft drinks. Many cough and cold supple- ments and pain reliever combinations also contain caffeine. A concen- tration greater than 12 micrograms of caffeine per milliliter (12 mcg/ml) in the urine is considered doping. A few cups of typical, American-brewed coffee should not result in a urinary concentration greater than 12 mcg/ml. cannabinoids—substances constituted of marijuana, hashish, or cannabis that contain mind-altering ingredients. Possession and/or use of these substances are illegal and may subject a person to arrest and criminal prosecution. The International Olympic Committee at the Olympic Games and many International Federations include cannabinoids on their list of prohibited substances. In those cases, a concentration in the urine of carboxy-THC greater than 15 nanograms per milliliter constitutes doping. The body absorbs THC, which is the mind-altering ingredient in cannabinoids, and transforms it into metabolites, which can be detected in the urine for weeks after use. 59 USA Tennis Parents’ Guide The metabolites can be detected in urine 4 to 10 days after smoking a single joint, and up to several weeks or months following chronic use. At the Olympic Games, tests are conducted for cannabinoids. creatine—a natural compound that is an important part of the body’s energy storage system. Energy is stored in the cells as creatine phosphate. Creatine is obtained primarily from meat in the diet. The long-term effects of taking supplemental creatine have not yet been established, but there appears to be a greater incidence of dehydra- tion, nausea, stomach cramps, diarrhea, muscle cramping, pulled muscles, and muscle tightness, according to a survey of creatine users. There are also two published reports of individuals with pre-existing liver and kidney problems having further complications while using creatine. diuretics—drugs that help the body to eliminate fluids (water and salts) by increasing the rate of urine formation. EPO (Erythropoietin)—a hormone produced by the kidneys to cause the production of new red blood cells in the bone marrow. Red blood cells carry oxygen from the lungs to the tissues, so high levels of EPO can increase the number of red blood cells, which can increase the amount of oxygen available to the tissues. growth hormone (hGH, Somatotropin)—a hormone secreted by the pituitary gland that exerts many effects on the human body. It plays an important role in a child’s development as well as in adapting to the stress of resistance training. Its use is dangerous and may result in various adverse effects: allergic reactions, diabetes, and acromegaly. Contamination of some growth hormone preparations of human origin can cause Creutzfeldt Jacob Disease, a fatal neurological condition. The hormone hGH is produced by the body to increase muscle, bone, and other tissue size. It is most active during growth spurts in teenagers. After a person stops growing, it aids in maintaining muscle mass. In high doses after growth cessation, it has harmful effects on internal tissues such as the liver. narcotics—a class of medications with effects of pain reduction and tendencies for psychological and physiological addiction. stimulant—any substance that temporarily increases body func- tions or activities. 60 The USTA Anti-Doping Program For further information, obtain the USADA (United States Anti- Doping Agency) Guide to Prohibited Classes of Substances and Prohibited Methods of Doping.

  • DECEMBER 2016 Fran Wakefield Hunter Inducted Into the Socal Sr
    DECEMBER 2016 Fran Wakefield Hunter Inducted into the SoCal Sr. Hall of Fame The sport of tennis encompasses so many different aspects from players to organizers, team captains, officials, tournament directors, media specialists, ath- letic trainers, ball kids, manufacturing reps and many more. Most people in- volved in the “sport of a lifetime,” at one time or another, played at some level of tennis and eventually fell in love with the game, despite the inevitable highs and lows. As competitive players, some people reach a very high level and con- tinue on to the pros. Others play high school, college and maybe try the pros, yet only a few make it to the top of the tennis pinnacle. Some become good recrea- tional players and perhaps get involved with league tennis and possibly win a sectional or league championship. Overall, tennis offers many paths to success. Yet in the end, what is tennis achievement all about? BTC member Fran Wakefield Hunter knows as she was recently inducted into the Southern Califor- nia Senior Hall of Fame for her lifetime dedication to tennis in many areas. At Balboa Tennis Club, Fran has been a regular competitor on the courts even into SCTA Sr. Hall of Fame inductee Fran Wakefield Hunter her eighties and along the way, has never stopped giving back to the game. Throughout a span of 40 continuous years, Fran was a USTA Circuit Chair, San Diego District Executive Board Member, USTA League Captain, Tournament Desk Coordinator and SCTA Wom- en’s Intersectional Organizer on all levels, where she was a pioneer in bringing about the gold, silver and bronze ball award system to senior tennis.

We had decided on a tour of inspection of our holdings to see what damage the storm had wrought. And the creek was still there, still wandering its earnest, four-foot-wide way through the meadow, which was spongy underfoot with the gray-green, dead-alive promise of what would soon be grass. The rocks had not been harmed, we noted with satisfaction, and the pool beside the willow was still a pool, despite what must have been a temptation to go and join the sea.

  • Embodying Character: Psychological and Bodily Performance and the Cinematic Construction of the Character in Goal-Driven Narrative Cinema
    Embodying Character: Psychological and Bodily Performance and the Cinematic Construction of the Character in Goal-Driven Narrative Cinema Sebastian Byrne 15974381 February, 2011 University of Western Sydney 'A creative doctorate submitted to the University of Western Sydney as partial fulfilment for the degree of Doctor of Creative Arts (DCA)'. Kung Fu Dunk (2008), Dir. Yen-Ping, C. Shanghai Film Group. Sebastian Byrne15974381 Embodying Character STATEMENT OF ORIGINALITY 'This work has not previously been submitted for a degree or diploma in any university. To the best of my knowledge and belief, the creative doctorate contains no material previously published or written by another person except where due reference is made in the creative research itself.' i Sebastian Byrne15974381 Embodying Character ABSTRACT This exegesis looks at how the character in goal-driven narrative cinema is cinematically constructed through the unfolding of events within the plot. While screenwriting manuals often separate plot from character, by collapsing action into a focus on the character's psychology, I argue that it is the psychology of the character and the bodily performance of the actor that motivate plot development. A closer analysis of how the character operates within the plot could be of particular relevance to film criticism when discussing the spectacle sequences contained in sports and action films, in which the body of the actor is more heavily foregrounded than in conventional narrative scenes. Through an analytical case study of the sports film Wimbledon, the exegesis demonstrates how the film privileges a focus on the psychology of the main protagonist, and the narrative, at the expense of a closer investigation into the ways in which their body operates within the tennis sequences.
