JQ The BG News 'A Commitment to Excellence" Tuesday, February 22, 1994 Bowling Green, Ohio Volume 77, Issue 103 GOP candidates debate topics by Kirk Pavellch editor-in-chief The Republican candidates for the U.S. Senate seat squared off before a crowd of more than ISO people in Kobac ker Hall Monday night, dis- cussing top- ics ranging from crime to the education system in the first debate of the cam- paign. The event, featuring Lt. Gov. Mike DeWine, Dr. Bernadine Healy and state Sen. Eugene Watts, was sponsored by the University's College Republi- cans in conjunction with the Wood County Republican Party and the Wood County Young Republicans. One of the most pressing is- sues covered by the debaters included the increase of violent crime in the country and how each planned to address the problem if elected to outgoing Sen. Howard Metzenbaum's seat. DeWine said he believes the real problem with crime lies with the fact that a substantial BC Ntw^Hon WtInner portion of all violent crime is committed by a small minority Republican U.S. Senate candidates (from left) Lt.

When Founders residence hall was renovated last year, one of its main assets was its PED security system -- side doors armed with decoders that only let in people with special devices (i.e., residents). The alarm system (when it's not malfunctioning) alerts employees when the door is propped. And this is an added blanket of protection, con- sidering that anyone entering the outside doors would only have access to the main lobby or dining hall.

  • Christopher Dean
    Christopher Dean Christopher Colin Dean was born in July 1958 in Calverton, Nottinghamshire, about ten miles from the city of Nottingham. His father, Colin, was a coal miner all his life. Chris first stepped on to the ice at the age of 10 after receiving a pair of skates for Christmas. He was instantly hooked; mesmerised by the grace and athleticism of the figure skaters that he watched. He took lessons outside school hours, working with Ken Babbington, Len Saywood and Pat Beat at the old Nottingham Ice Stadium. At 14 he began competing with ice partner Sandra Elson and despite enjoying significant success for a couple of years (British Junior Dance champions in 1974), Chris and Sandra went their separate ways. Shortly afterwards, he began skating with another local girl, Jayne Torvill. Meanwhile, Chris was training to be a policeman, joining the Nottingham Police Force straight from school in 1974. Chris and Jayne had been paired up by coach Janet Sawbridge at the Nottingham Ice Stadium. They enjoyed success in several national and international competitions, winning in Oberstdorf and coming third in the British Championships in 1977. In 1979, they switched coaches to Betty Callaway. The progress they had made as a dancing pair was confirmed by a fifth place finish in the Winter Olympics of 1980 at Lake Placid, USA. They were placed fourth in the World Championships and won their first British Champions in late 1980, a feat that they achieved for six successive years. Chris resigned from the police force in 1980, enabling him to concentrate on skating full time.

  • Welcome to Oberstdorf
    Welcome to Oberstdorf Dear Participants, dear Team Members, Officials and Guests, It is a great pleasure to welcome you to the 50th anniversary of our traditional “Nebelhorn-Trophy” in Oberstdorf. We are celebrating 50 years of uninterrupted high level skating performances with an unchanged format of the competition. The support of our friends worldwide, the trust of all international federations and the confidence of the ISU in our organization are what have made this anniversary possible in the first place. The event has been selected to host the “Official Olympic Qualification Event” for 3 times. In addition, for more than 20 years, it has been the place for the official ISU Judges’ Examination where judges from around the world can become ISU qualified judges in Figure Skating and Ice Dance. Oberstdorf has also been the event in which many important decisions were tested or created: new “Compulsory Dances”; the first official international event without Compulsory Figures; the try-out and implementation of the “New Judging System”; as well as many other tests with various ideas to compose the Panel of Judges. To honour this remarkable anniversary, we have organized a nice exhibition in the “Oberstdorf House”, showing the history of our event. We would like to encourage you to visit this display and see the pictures and exhibits of your great compatriots, who were the winners of our event. There are so many famous skaters and it would go beyond any available space, but just to mention some is the goal to go, e.g. Angelika and Erich Buck, Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean, Marina Klimova and Sergei Ponomarenko, Elena Valova and Oleg Vasiliev, Tatiana Volosozhar and Maxim Trankov, Carolina Kostner, Debi Thomas, Dorothy Hamill, Todd Eldredge, Stephane Lambiel and Yuzury Hanyu and with the record of all, Aljona Savchenko, who has won the event 6 times with three different partners.

  • ISU Lifetime Achievement Award Recipients Revealed
    ISU Lifetime Achievement Award recipients revealed Living legends Jayne Torvill/Christopher Dean (GBR), Tamara Moskvina (RUS) and Alexei Mishin (RUS) received the ISU Lifetime Achievement Award. Presented by Olympic Ice Dance Champion Charlie White and Olympic Ice Dance silver medalist Tanith White, the digital show on Saturday, July 10, united Figure Skating of the present, past and future. British Ice Dancers Torvill and Dean revolutionized the sport with their immortal “Bolero” that won them Olympic gold in 1984. But there is so much more to them than the “Bolero”. Torvill and Dean brought Ice Dance to another level. Their passionate Rhumba Original Set Pattern Dance from 1994 has been developed into a Compulsory Dance, for example. They continued to create unique programs in shows and tours and as choreographers. “From our point of view it has been a life giving exercise. We didn’t know that we would still be involved/a part of [Figure Skating], this far into our lives and that was over 30 years ago, and we’re still doing it, maybe we shouldn’t be doing it but we are doing it and still enjoying it as well.” Tamara Moskvina and Alexei Mishin were successful Pair Skaters end of the 1960s, winning medals at the ISU World and European Championships. While they were technically ahead of their time as skaters, they created their true legend as coaches. They have been coaching for more than 50 years and educated generations of Figure Skaters. Moskvina’s Pairs have won a total of 63 medals at Olympic Games, ISU World and European Championships, which makes her the most successful Pair Skating coach in the World.
