"This paper will first explore how gymnastics got into the mess that prompted the writing of "Little Girls in Pretty Boxes" by profiling one athlete and two coaches. The topic of eating disorders within the sport will be explored in detail through the case of one former elite gymnast, Christy Henrich. ... This will be followed by a contrast of two coaching styles that have been prevalent in American gymnastics over the last several years: the styles of Bela Karolyi and Mary Lee Tracy ... Once the profiles have been laid out, the paper will discuss how the situation became permissible in the first place. Is it strictly an issue of physically smaller bodies being more capable of performing the technical difficulty the sport requires? Or does the problem require a deeper probing of how our culture looks at these young female gymnasts? Finally, we will look at changes that have taken place within gymnastics since the publication of "Little Girls in Pretty Boxes." The steps USA Gymnastics has taken to address the issue of eating disorders will be explored. The direction elite women's gymnastics may be taking now will also be discussed"--Author's introduction.

Twelve-year-old Noelle Onesti has gymnastics in her blood. Not only does she have natural ability, talent and drive, but back in Romania, her mother was also an Elite gymnast. So if there's one girl destined to come home with a gold medal at the Junior National Championships, it's Noelle. But Noelle’s a worrier, and she knows it won’t be easy for her family to put up the money to send her to the competition. She tries to focus on her training, but when a boy asks her to the school dance, her mind is a whirlwind of dresses, crushes, and family responsibilities. Noelle knows that if she wants to achieve her Olympic dreams, she can’t let anything get in the way. Her teammates—graceful Christina, quiet Jessie, and lively Britt—can’t wait for the trip to Junior Nationals in Philadelphia, and Noelle doesn’t want to let them down.

This volume, part of the TIAA-CREF Institute Series on Higher Education, is based on a national conference, The New Balancing Act in the Business of Higher Education, which was convened by the TIAA-CREF Institute in November 2005. Managing institutions of higher education has always been a balancing act as campus leaders address business issues while staying true to their institutions' academic missions. What makes it increasingly challenging are emerging internal and external factors - including changes in federal and state funding levels, rapidly evolving demographics on campuses and in the workforce, and higher expectations and changing demands from a wide and diverse group of stakeholders. In this volume, higher education leaders explore the challenges facing colleges and universities operating in today's environment with constrained budgets and discuss a variety of strategies and solutions being employed to help ensure the ongoing vitality of America's colleges and universities.

"On the backwater planet of Brynner, at Persephone Station, a community of android refugees, all female, are hiding since they were able to awaken their AI and escape servitude. But the Serrao-Orlov Corporation is nothing if not tenacious, especially about it's proprietary AI's, and it wants their property back. However, Persephone is run by Rosie, and they are in charge of an organized group of beneficent criminals and assassins, along with a bunch of worn mercenaries who have a thing for doing the honorable thing, despite the odds. And in a fight with the Serrao-Orlov Corporation, the odds are not going to be good, but it would be a glorious fight.
