Amiel The athlete strains toward his goal, tendons and muscles outlined in the gleam of a finely-tuned body. With every ounce of will he flings himself up and forward, stretching his leg to reach the furthest end of the sandpit. His prosthesis lands second, slightly behind, but the jump is good enough for gold, and this athlete, John Register, is on his way to Sydney and the 2000 Paralympics Games. Although the world's attention is focused on the heroics of Olympians who will contest each other at the 2000 Games in September, the games that follow are those that truly test the measure of an athlete: one who not only works against the clock or against gravity, but also against his or her own body.

While the obvious answer is to invest more money in the Olympic program, there's a train of thought shared by some insiders that the answer doesn't rest only with twisting the arm of government until it drops a bundle of Olympic cash. They are unconvinced that government will do an about-face and become an amateur sport cash cow, so they would like to see more prioritized spending of the available funds.

The Olympic Games are more than just a sporting event. It is not about medal tallies, although that is a measure of the success of our elite sporting programs. The Olympics represent an opportunity for nations to showcase their cultural, political, economic, social and sporting achievements - and in almost every respect Australia showed world-class performances in these areas. There are particular features of the Olympics that stand out for special mention. Second, the New South Wales Government and SOCOG, who despite some pre-Games problems, delivered a near perfect Games. As with many other interstate spectators, I was very impressed with the transport system and slickness of operations which, given the problems of Atlanta, is testament to an epic planning and operational plan. Third, the officials and administrators who created a seamless environment in which world class athletic competition thrived.

T op Stories: Features: Opinion: ... Contact the editors: History of the Paralympics The Paralympic Games is the premier international event for elite athletes with disabilities and one of the largest sporting events in the world - bigger competitions than the Commonwealth Games and the Winter Olympics. They focus on the athletic achievements of participants, rather than their disabilities and the title 'Paralympic' is derived from the word 'parallel', as the games are conducted parallel to the Olympic Games. Athletes include those blind and partially sighted, amputees, with cerebral palsy, paraplegics, tetraplegics, wheelchair athletes and those with an intellectual disability. The Paralympic Games grew from the work of Dr Ludwig Guttman, a German-born neurosurgeon who established the National Spine Injury Centre at Stoke Mandeville Hospital in England in 1944. He first introduced competitive sport to rehabilitate soldiers with spinal cord injuries sustained in World War II.

English Russian Home Web Exclusive Tourist Info ... Contact Us Paralympic Committee Of Moldova History of the Paralympic Games The Paralympic movement began with the idea of using sports as a practice for rehabilitating war veterans. In England in 1948 the neurologist, Sir Ludwig Guttman, decided to use sports to improve the quality of life of soldiers mutilated or wounded during the war. In July of that same year the first edition of the Stoke Mandeville Games was held, at the same time as the opening of the London Olympics. Four years later the International Games on Wheelchairs were held. After the Olympic Games of 1960 in Rome, the first Paralympic Games were held, in which 400 athletes from 23 nations participated. Throughout time the Paralympics movement - which until the Roman Games involved only athletes on wheelchairs - added new classes of participants with different types of physical, visual and mental disabilities. The prefix "para-", initially deriving from the word paraplegic, acquired a different meaning over the years: today it means parallel. The Paralympics are complementary to the Olympics. The general philosophy of the Paralympic Games is to follow the rules of the Olympic sports as much as possible. Such a philosophy is already implied in the name of the event. The term “Paralympic” derives from the word “Olympic” and the suffix “para”, a Greek preposition, which means “close to”. The Paralympic Games is an elite sports event in terms of both the organization and the actual competition.

Sharing cultures part of Olympic activites by Mary Galbraith Hilltop Times staff Members of the Hill Administrators' Association met for lunch at the Officers' Club this week to network, communicate and hear a description of upcoming Olympic activities. Seileen Mullen Murphy, Federal Government Relations director for the Salt Lake Organizing Committee for the Olympic Winter Games of 2002, spoke to administrators about the games set for Feb. 8-24, 2002. Murphy said at this point the role of Hill AFB is small but she expects thousands of federal employees from all over the country will come to Utah to volunteer during the games. According to Murphy, the state's population is expected to balloon by as much as 3.5 million as media and spectators crowd the Wasatch Front to view the 153 ticketed events at the ten competition venues. Over 9,000 members of the media will report the successes and triumphs of more than 3,000 athletes from 80 countries as they compete in 70 different events and vie for the 210 available medals. Murphy said tickets for the most popular events like women's figure skating and men's hockey will be pricey with Opening Ceremony tickets going for hundreds. But, she added, there are dozens of moderately priced events that will provide locals with an opportunity to see world class athletes compete in the flesh.
