The pupils also enjoyed a busy social programme including an open mic night, where they entertained the staff and guests from NASA, and a ceilidh. During the week, the pupils were split into teams of 10, working on the different activities and competing for Team of the Week. A number of undergraduate students from within the Faculty of Engineering, all of whom are Space School alumni, acted as team mentors and supported staff with delivery of the summer school.

During the year changes have occurred within the national high performance system that have, and will continue to im- pact on the Institute as it fulfils its role as a valued contribu- tor to Australia’s international sporting success. The development of the National Institutes System Inter- governmental Agreement (NISIA) and the Tasmanian Gov- ernment’s commitment to be a signatory to this agreement provided the opportunity for the TIS Board of Management to review its future role, purpose and function. As a result the Board determined that, after some 25 years of overseeing the development of the TIS, it was now time to cease its function.

  • Women's Wrestling Report for CPOW
    THE GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT OF WOMEN’S WRESTLING Report prepared by Dr. David Curby (USA)-FILA Scientific Department In the overall history of wrestling, the development of women’s wrestling has been dramatic. In roughly one generation, we have come from having the novelty of seeing a very few young girls competing in age-group or high school events, to women competing for Olympic medals. During this same time there have been changes in the views of the scientific and medical fields regarding women and their athletic capabilities. I t was only in the 1984 Los Angeles Olympic Games that women were allowed to run in events longer than 1,500 meters, with the addition of the 3,000 meters and the marathon. With the growth of women’s sports, we are finding that there are more similarities in sports training and performance of men and women, than there are differences. Participation data from the National Federation of High School Associations list the first girls in their survey results for the 1979-80 school year. These numbers have steadily grown to over 8,000 for the 2011-12 school year and accounts for 3% of the 280,000 total participants. Data from USA Wrestling shows a similar pattern. Membership totals, separated by gender, are available beginning in 1995, and lists 1,525 girls and women. This had grown to 4,724 in 2012. California, Washington, Kansas and Texas have the most female competitors. Internationally, the roots of women’s wrestling are in France. Following the establishment of female wrestling clubs and hosting a first national championship in 1973, female wrestling was adopted by the French Wrestling Federation in 1977.

  • ASB: an Alternative to Political Parties
    Arab Satellite Broadcasting: An Alternative to Political Parties? Prof. Dr. Kai Hafez University of Erfurt, Germany ([email protected]) currently also: Visiting Fellow at Oxford University The famous Arab news network Al-Jazeera has been considered one of the most important ‘Arab parties.’ Since most Arab countries have not yet established functioning democracies most relevant institutions, like political parties and a parliamentarian opposition, are still rudimentry, Arab satellite television seems to be taking over part of their designated role. As a mouthpiece of Arab peoples and ‘the common man’, Arab satellite broadcasting seems able to mediate between the state and society. In the international context the transnational Arab news networks, in particular, have made tremendous inroads into the Western dominated flow of news. Perhaps for the first time ever in history, Arabs have an effective and up-to- globalization tool of information at their disposal to inform the world about their own views on regional conflicts, for example, in Palestine or in Iraq. However, to what extent can Arab satellite broadcasting really be considered to play a proactive and avant-garde role for Arab democracy? The international debate on Al-Jazeera and other Arab satellites in recent years has been characterized by tremendous controversy and insecurity. While Al-Jazeera, in particular, was considered by some to be the herald of Arab democracy and civil society, its critics highlighted the networks’ anti-Israeli or Anti-American biases and their sensationalist tendency towards ‘politainment.’ Proponents applaud Arab transnational television for opening up the public discourse, but opponents argue that they are doing quite the opposite because they resonate and perpetuate intrinsic biases of Arab political culture.

Maroulis, who won the world title at 55kg last year, slipped out of a headlock early in the second period for a 2-1 lead in the 53kg final, then added a takedown with less than a minute remaining to give the United States its first Olympic Games gold medal in women’s wrestling. “I’ve been dreaming about wrestling Saori for so long. She’s my hero; she’s the most decorated wrestler ever,” Maroulis said after her victory. “It is such an honor to have wrestled her.” For Yoshida, it was the first time in 14 years that she had not finished on top of the medals podium after winning three Olympic Games gold medals and 13 world championship titles. “I should have attacked sooner and more quickly, but (Maroulis) was just stronger than me,” a disconsolate Yoshida told reporters after her loss. Japanese fans, however, regained some of their festive mood from Risako KAWAI (JPN), who claimed her first world-level title as a senior with three takedowns for a 6-0 win over Maria MAMASHUK (BLR).
