Extractions: Lipinski gets into the spirit at the opening ceremonies at Nagano AP NAGANO, Japan (KRT) A photograph of her first day on the ice hangs in the condo that Tara Lipinski shares with her mother. "It reminds us all," Tara says, "of the day our lives changed forever." Day 1 on ice skates, by her own account, was not pretty. "I was a mess. My ankles bent in. My elbows bent out. And I kept ending up on my backside. My parents were a little surprised I was so awful." But in the space of time it took Pat and Jack Lipinski to wander off for a cup of hot chocolate that day, their miniature daughter had found her skating legs and discovered what would become her life's work.

Extractions: from Dr. Louis Grivetti, the project's compiler: This year, 1996, marks the centennial celebration of the modern Olympic movement. In this spirit of celebration we acknowledge and recognize the names and publications of more than 50,000 historical and contemporary scholars, linked by the thread of a united, common interest in athletics, sport, and recreation. Athletics, games, leisure pursuits, physical education, play activities, and sports lie at the junction between the humanities, social sciences, and biological-medical sciences. While athletic activities most likely had their origin in military training, it is difficult in modern times to separate each theme: athletics from games, games from leisure pursuits and physical education, physical education from play, play from recreation, or recreation from sports. During past and present centuries research on human athletics, games, play, recreation, and sports has been conducted by a broad range of scientists, whether dietitians, nutritionists, physiologists, or physicians. Research on these themes also has been conducted by a broad range of scholars representing the humanities and social sciences, whether anthropologists, artists, classicists, dancers, economists, geographers, historians, musicians, psychologists, social theorists, or sociologists.

Extractions: Derek Parra Athlete San Bernardino Sun reporter Paul Oberjuerge, "that's more important than anything else." Raced for Food Parra grew up in San Bernardino's West Side neighborhood. His mother had departed when he was a toddler, and Parra's father worked as a prison guard to support him and his brother. As a kid, Parra and his older brother, Gilbert, loved to skate at the Stardust Roller Rink. Having no money for snacks, they began racing as a way to win food tickets from others. "We used to race for hot dogs and Cokes," Gilbert Parra told St. Petersburg Times columnist John Romano. Parra began competing in races using the new inline skates, though his father disapproved; he sometimes refused to drive him to meets, but changed his mind when others began telling him that they had seen his son on television. As a teen, Parra met a Florida roller-skating coach named Virgil Dooley at a U.S. Olympic Committee training camp. Parra told Dooley that he would like to train with him after he finished high school. He then graduated early and bought a ticket to Tampa, and phoned the coach.
