Extractions: Is the rower a huge neanderthal? ... Go to Oysteins Linkorama to find some great links in many areas of interest! This web-page is dedicated to the norwegian light-weight rower Tor Albert Ersdal. He will compete in the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta in dubbel sculler with his team-mate Magne Kvalvik. It is also made to spread information about rowing in general and about rowing in the Olympics. You will find inside information here that you probably will not find elsewhere on the Net or in any other media. You will also find some basic information about rowing if you're not familiar with this great sport. My name is Oystein Drivflaadt (See my homepage) . I have made this page about Tor Albert first of all because he is one of my best friends. It is not often someone I know is going to the Olympics, this might be the first and last time. So I decided to make a page to inform the world about rowing in general and Tor Albert especially. Neither of them has gotten the attention they deserve, and I think it's about time some info about them hit the Net! So here you go! Most of the information presented is taken from my own head, but all the numbers, times, details and inside information about rowing and Tor Albert's achievments I have gotten from him firsthand. The section about rowing in general is also mostly taken from my head, I have been active both as an athlete and a coach in this great sport. But I have also consulted other sources for some details and specific information. Please inform me if there should be anything that is not correct.

Extractions: Both the North Penn girls and boys had a close game with Souderton, but in the end the missed opportunities proved to be too costly. The girls lost 4:3 and the boys 5:4. The next game, against Perkiomen Valley, on Monday, October 16, will mark the first time that a game will be played at the North Penn High School. Time to move on It's been wonderful... I will never stop remembering the great times I spent as a parent, friend, and volunteer with the North Penn High School's swimming program. I enjoyed the cheering, videotaping, the five years of yearbook editing and the three years of web site development and management. It was a lot of fun. And if not always without frustration, well, that's just life. I will certainly keep only the greatest memories, and there are plenty. I feel deeply privileged to have been able to work with one of the best high school coaches this country has ever seen. Bill Bartle 's record of a water polo and four straight swimming state championships, taking the NP boys and keeping them in the top five public high school programs in the U.S.A. for four consecutive years, and in the end leading them to the number one national ranking, made my job very easy. There was certainly no need for motivation. I woke up and went to bed daily with thoughts of how I could match the program's success with quality representation, accurate reporting, and documentation.

Extractions: Buy one from zShops for: Average review score: This is a keeper!! Being a high school athlete, this is a cook that I was really able to relate to. Each character in the story shows that he/she is able solve his/her problem through their sports. All of he characters display high morale, which leads them to what they want at the end of their story. an example would be Angus, from the story "A Brief Moment in the Life of Angus Bethune." He believed that no one should be treated as he was, and at thet end of the story, this trait won over his high-school sweetheart. These stories all show good kids goig through their tough teenage years, and the ways that they cope with these tough times. This book was one of the best that I have read. It showed that no matter how bad the situation is, you can always get what you want in the end if try for it hard enough. Very good stories Excellent Athletic shorts, by Chris Crutcher is a book about 6 short stories that describe athletes triumphs. I loved this book. Its would interest me around every corner. I would just wanted to continue reading. The only bad part of the book was that it had to end.
