PERFORM supported a regional workshop "Feminism, Knowledge Production and Social Change: Critical Perspectives from the Semi-periphery of Europe" organised by the Section for Feminist Research and Critical Studies of Masculinity (SEFEM), association within the Sociological Association of Serbia and Montenegro.
Feminist researchers from Serbia, Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Czech Republic, Hungary, Germany, Turkey, France and Sweden gathered in Belgrade to share knowledge and discuss different perspectives on feminism in academia, culture, society and public policies.
Twenty three researches were presented at the workshop that will be part of a special thematic issue of the "Sociology" journal "Feminism, Knowledge Production and Social Change: Critical Perspectives from the Semi-periphery of Europe".
Feminism and women's movements in Eastern and Southeast Europe continuously generate high level of interest in transnational gender study communities. However, the links between sociology, social research and feminism in societies in question are consistently weak, and feminist knowledge is only marginally connected to mainstream sociology as an academic discipline.
Theoretical advancements in sociology, social theory and feminist theory develop mostly independently and without a dialogue. In countries "in transition" feminism has been largely understood as daily political practice and reduced to "policy making" while its fundamental transformational role in knowledge production and consequently in the production of a progressive social change has been largely marginalised.
The attitudes of both sides, feminist scholars and dominant sociology scene in the societies at the semi-periphery of Europe, have complex epistemic, theoretical and practical/political implications, which will be explored in this thematic issue and brought to light for the purpose of constructive dialogue between feminist and sociology scholarly communities.PERFORM is supporting the publication of this special issue of Sociology Journal, published by the Sociological Association of Serbia and Montenegro and the Institute for Sociological Research of the Faculty of Philosophy University of Belgrade.


Meek Mill proved thirst sometimes can be rewarded when he bagged Nicki Minaj late last year.
The two may be a power couple now, but the pursuit of the cheeks nearly took its toll on the Philly rapper when he was tweeting all types of crazy sh*t to her from 2009 to 2012.
But, we aren't throwing shade at Meek Mill at all! You have to respect a man who talks about something and goes out and does it.
The road to victory wasn't an easy one for Meek, either. He had to do the most to get this woman's attention.
Here's a brief history of his thirst on Twitter before he hit.

Early Childhood Council of Larimer County group…
Early Childhood Council of Larimer County group asks commissioners to put child care tax on ballot
Organizers say expanded early child care and education would have family and economic benefits
By Jackie Hutchins | jhutchins@prairiemountainmedia.com | Loveland Reporter-Herald
Larimer County commissioners heard a request Tuesday morning to put a new 0.25% sales and use tax on the November ballot to help fund early childhood care and education.
Though it was not an agenda item and commissioners took no action on it, proponents of a Larimer County Funding for Early Childhood Tax briefed the board on their proposal during the citizen comments portion of the meeting.
The commissioners are scheduled to talk about the proposal at a work session at 2:30 p.m. Wednesday, Aug. 18.
Christina Taylor, CEO of the Early Childhood Council of Larimer County, said a steering committee did six months of study on the proposal.
Though she said the group knows there are other high-pressure issues in the county, one being the need for affordable housing, she said the group feels confident a $17 million a year investment in early childhood education would produce short- and long-term benefits for the area.
"I can assure you this is a wise investment, one we won't regret," she said.
She said the organizers decided against doing a petition drive to put the measure on the ballot, due to COVID-19 concerns, and instead are asking the commissioners to place it before the voters.
Joe Ziegler, education director at the Family Center — La Familia in Fort Collins, also spoke, telling commissioners the study group had looked at best practices, revenue sources and the likelihood of voter support before proposing the measure.
He said Larimer County has been facing a child care capacity crisis for more than a decade, and the pandemic had made it worse.
According to the group's report online, some child care providers have closed since the pandemic hit, while others are struggling to meet expenses. It said many parents are now caring for their children while working from home.
The proposed measure would roughly double the money available for the early childhood education system, and could help reduce the cost of care for families while supporting the early childhood workforce and expanding capacity to serve more children, Ziegler said.
Ruben Blanco, who said he is a businessman and parent, also asked commissioners to place the measure on the ballot, citing business benefits.
He said a Talent 2.0 Regional Workforce Strategy report identified the lack of child care as one of three key barriers to workplace retention and recruitment.
"From Fort Collins to Estes Park, Berthoud to Loveland, businesses across the county are facing workforce challenges and families are facing child-care shortages," he said, adding that the pandemic has made the issue even worse.
An investment in child care improvements could help businesses in the county attract and retain employees, giving the area an economic advantage, Blanco said.
He also pointed out that in Colorado and nationwide a few other communities have invested in early childhood care, including Summit and San Juan counties in the state, and Grand Rapids, Mich., and Portland, Ore.
According to the group's report online, 14 of the steering committee's 17 members voted to support asking the commissioners to refer a countywide by 0.25% sales and use tax increase question to voters at the November 2021 election, with proceeds to be used to support early care and education programs in Larimer County.
The report said that two steering committee members did not support going to the voters in 2021, but wanted to wait until 2022, and the third who dissented said $17 million per year in dedicated revenue was insufficient to meet the demand.
The tax, which would amount to 25 cents on a $100 purchase, would be expected to generate $17 million in its first year.
The funding would be used for four purposes:
To subsidize the cost of child care and preschool programs for families with children from birth to age 5.
To invest in the early childhood system to expand capacity and improve quality.
To conduct thorough evaluation to measure the impact of the program.
To pay for administration of the program with a reasonable cap in place.
The nonprofit Early Childhood Council of Larimer County would be asked to administer the program.
More information about the proposal can be found at bit.ly/37uRlig.

Die Deutsche Feldhandball-Meisterschaft 1962 wurde in einem Endrundenturnier zwischen dem 23. September und dem 28. Oktober 1962 ausgespielt. Das Turnier war die 13. vom DHB ausgerichtete Meisterschaftsrunde im Feldhandball der Männer. Das Endspiel fand am 28. Oktober 1962 vor 25.000 Zuschauern in Nürnberg statt, im Stadion "Zabo" des 1. FC Nürnberg.

Neuer Deutscher Meister wurde der TSV 1860 Ansbach, der zum dritten Mal in ununterbrochener Folge das Endspiel erreicht hatte und dabei die zweite Feldhandball-Meisterschaft der Vereinsgeschichte gewann. Ansbach besiegte im Finale den TSV Grün-Weiß Dankersen mit 9:8.

Modus
16 Mannschaften traten in einem Ausscheidungsturnier gegeneinander an, in dieser Saison mit einem neuen Modus: die Vorrunde (Achtelfinale) wurde wie gehabt im K.o.-System gespielt, in der Zwischenrunde (Viertelfinale) und im Halbfinale wurden die Sieger der jeweiligen Paarungen erstmals in Hin- und Rückspielen ermittelt. Die Sieger des Halbfinales bestritten das Endspiel, es gab keine offiziellen Platzierungsspiele.

Die folgenden 15 Mannschaften hatten sich über die jeweiligen Regionalmeisterschaften direkt für die Vorrunde des Turniers qualifiziert; der THW Kiel, Deutscher Meister 1962 im Hallenhandball, hatte sich für die Großfeld-Endrunde nicht qualifiziert:

Norddeutsche Meisterschaft:
 VfL Wolfsburg
 Büdelsdorfer TSV
 VSK Bungerhof
Westdeutsche Meisterschaft:
 BSV Solingen 1898
 TuS Lintfort (Titelverteidiger)
 TuS 05 Wellinghofen
 TSV Grün-Weiß Dankersen
Südwestdeutsche Meisterschaft:
 TV Hochdorf
 TSG Haßloch
 TV Großwallstadt
Süddeutsche Meisterschaft:
 TC Frisch Auf Göppingen
 TSV 1860 Ansbach
 SG Leutershausen
 TSV Birkenau
Berliner Landes-/Regionalmeisterschaft:
 Berliner SV 1892

Dazu kam als 16. Mannschaft der Vierte der Norddeutschen Meisterschaft, der Flensburger TB, der sich gegen den Berliner Vizemeister Polizei SV Berlin in einem Qualifikationsspiel am 16. September mit 9:8 knapp durchgesetzt hatte.

Die Spieldauer betrug 2 × 30 Minuten, bei Gleichstand nach regulärer Spielzeit wurde eine Verlängerung von 2 × 10 Minuten durchgeführt.

Turnierverlauf
Während sich die Titelverteidiger aus Lintfort in der Vorrunde souverän durchsetzten, benötigte der Vizemeister des Vorjahres, der TSV Ansbach, die Verlängerung zu einem mühsamen Erfolg gegen den Dortmunder Verein TuS Wellinghofen. Die Auslosung der Zwischenrunde führte die Finalisten der beiden Vorjahre dann zusammen – Ansbach konnte beide Spiele gegen Lintfort gewinnen, ebenso wie die beiden Halbfinalspiele gegen Solingen. Zur Überraschungsmannschaft des Turniers avancierte der TSV Grün-Weiß Dankersen um den überragenden Nationalspieler Herbert Lübking, der den Berliner Meister BSV 1892 (Vorrunde), den Norddeutschen Meister VfL Wolfsburg (Zwischenrunde) und schließlich auch die Göppinger "Kempa-Buben" (Halbfinale) ausschalten konnte – allerdings musste sich Dankersen sowohl in der Zwischenrunde als auch im Halbfinale in jeweils einem Spiel geschlagen geben und erreichte das Finale nur aufgrund der besseren Tordifferenzen aus Hin- und Rückspielen.

In einem dramatischen Endspiel – Dankersen führte mehrfach und hielt die Partie bis zum Ende offen – siegte Ansbach schließlich knapp, nicht zuletzt aufgrund der guten Leistung des Torwarts.

Am Vortag des Finales, am 27. Oktober 1962, waren die beiden Verlierermannschaften des Halbfinales – BSV Solingen und Frisch Auf Göppingen – zu einem inoffiziellen Spiel um den dritten Platz gegeneinander angetreten; Frisch Auf siegte in Solingen mit 9:13.

 VfL Wolfsburg – SG Leutershausen: 17:10

DIXON, Mo. (Aug. 6, 2022) -- A single-vehicle Friday afternoon wreck on Highway 133 southwest of Dixon injured two Dixon residents and totaled their vehicle. According to Missouri State Highway Patrol reports, Harry L. Emfinger, 67, was moderately injured, but his passenger, Janet S. Rosario, 60, suffered serious injuries and was medevaced by LifeLine air ambulance to University Hospital in Columbia.
Troopers reported that Emfinger had been driving a 2000 Chevrolet half-ton pickup southbound at 4:25 p.m. when he ran off the right side of the roadway about three miles from Dixon and struck a tree. Emfinger was transported to Phelps Health in Rolla by Dixon Ambulance District personnel; his vehicle was removed by TC Towing.
Neither person had been wearing their seatbelts, troopers reported.
Dixon Police Department officers assisted with traffic control at the crash scene.
In unrelated incidents, troopers reported the following recent arrests, both in Pulaski County:
• Amanda N. Robins, 33, of St. Robert, was arrested at 5:07 p.m. on Tuesday, Aug. 2, on felony charges of possession of a controlled substance and failing to wear her seatbelt. Robins was transported to the Waynesville Police Department and subsequently released.
• Corbin M. Moore, 21, of Richland, was arrested at 11:51 p.m. on Wednesday, Aug. 3, on charges of driving while intoxicated by alcohol, operating a motor vehicle in a careless and imprudent manner, failure to provide proof of insurance, failure to register a motor vehicle, displaying license plates of another person, possession of 10 grams or less of marijuana, possession of drug paraphernalia, driving without a valid license, leaving the scene of a crash, and failing to wear his seatbelt. Moore was transported to the Pulaski County Jail and subsequently released.


For much of night riding, the key to survival is not only seeing but also being seen, the CherryBomb 35 addresses the latter. By incorporating a unique multi-directional collimator specifically designed for cycling, the CherryBomb 35 maximizes visibility by dispersing light to the sides of the rider as well as to the rear, effectively eliminating blind spots to upcoming automobiles.
To further rider safety and visibility, the CherryBomb 35 employs a custom made, built in reflector which allows the rider to be night time visible even when the taillight is in the off position. Clip and bike mounts are included, for flexible mounting options.
- A wearable safety light – clip onto various straps, belt loops, etc.


With this week's conference, Virtual Worlds: Best Practices in Education looming, I felt an overwhelming need to look professional.
I like supporting Second Life's merchants, who have had a tough time during a real-world economic recession. My hunt this year for a good suit was a short one, given my reading of the hilariously tongue-in-cheek fashion blog, Look at These F*ucking SLipsters. The blog highlighted the Madison Avenue suits from a firm called 5th and Oxford.
Menswear is hard to find in Second Life, and it is harder to love. I don't want my avatar to be a tattooed love-boy fresh off his motorcycle. That's ludicrous. But a good suit? A suit that Don Draper might wear in Mad Men? Now you are talking.
Arriving at the store, I found every item reduced to 50 Linden Dollars. They are closing. I snapped up all three shades of the suit and an all-black outfit with turtleneck that might have been worn by Andy Warhol. Shops in virtual world close for many reasons, but this is final: the items will vanish from the grid soon. What happened? I've asked the shop owner in-world and at her blog. Copybotting? Anger at Linden Lab? A new venue outside SL?
Come what may at the conference, my virtual self will have a good suit on thanks to 5th & Oxford. Sorry to see you go; I hardly got to know you. So gents, if you want a good suit, get over to the store now.
Noooo, Joooooooe, don't do it!
Steampunk is the theme!!! Come on, I"ll help you shop.
Tell you what...I'll wear my Viv Trafalgar tophat with the gears and goggles.
I'll consider that a generous compromise. But you gotta show some love to the look.
I'll wear Viv's uber-cool duster as well. Greens and browns!


"Foreign material" is extraneous matter found in food that may render the food unfit for human consumption. Strictly speaking, foreign material is not biological, but metal, paper, paint, glass or other materials. Legally, the term also refers to all contamination of a non-microbial source, including human hair, parts of insects, cleaning fluids and even particles of the wrong food, such as meat in a vegetarian product.
All food manufacturers risk potential foreign object hazards. Many of these hazards exist and can cause severe injury to customers with costly recalls. Identifying, training, and preventing these hazards have to be an important part of every manufacturer's operation.
The bottom line is that foreign materials have no place in foods, and food manufacturers need to develop, document, implement and maintain programs to ensure that such materials remain out of their products and processes. This fast-paced, high-content webinar with expert speaker Natasha Rowley-Phipps will offer information on foreign objects, provide in-the-news case studies, and creative ways to engage your team in a robust foreign object prevention program.
Understand foreign material – what is it?

How did WILDs get you in trouble at school? They where catching you sleeping in class or something?
Lol anyways I've had 1 short lucid dream last week in the 2 months I've been trying so far, probably doing the MILD technique every night. I feel if I can go straight into a lucid dream from waking consciousness, I should be able to develop a sense of increased familiarity with the dream state so I can increase my chances of LDing every night. My problem is I haven't had any success with the WILD technique.
I've read a couple different tutorials on how to do it, one told me to wake up at around 3:00 AM, and perform the 'stop drop and roll' exercise until I am put into a SP, and from there I should be able to induce into a lucid dream.
Well I've tried this stop drop and roll method, and I can't seem to get into sleep paralysis. I'm thinking it's because I'm doing something wrong, any tips? Has this method worked for you in the past?
What other methods have you used to successfully WILD?
I sincerely appreciate all help given.
I sincerely appreciate the dedication each member has put into this forum.
This mass of information would not be present, nor easily organized without you.
Wow, very interesting, so sleep peralysis us completely necessary for entering a WILD? Necessary for being aware of the dream from the beginning?
And you mean to lie there for hours until entering sleep peralysis, but without falling asleep? Is that something we can really control?
Cause I've always had a trouble falling asleep, but after an hour or two of lying there I end up falling asleep, unless it's like an afternoon nap or something. .-. Should this mean I should try it in the later afternoon hours after a cup of coffee or two?
1 more question, I've only been able to lucid dream twice, mainly using the MILD technique, one of them I even forgot I realized I was dreaming and lost lucidity .-. Should I wait to become more experienced before trying to WILD? So i don't forget and lose lucidity? Or is that not a problem with this WILD technique since I'll be lucid from the beginning of the dream.
Ahh so many questions I'm sorry .-.
Anything you can recommend I keep my mind on as I'm attempting not to fall asleep while lying down for hours? And someone told me that breathing through your nose causes you to close your mouth, so your jaw muscles tense, preventing you from entering SP. Is this true? Cause I gotta swallow periodically if my mouth stays open xD and it's irritating.
I'll definitely see if the TV in the middle of the night method puts me into SP, but I've never actually been put in SP involuntarily, so I don't know how that'll work out..
Oh and I've been having, all of a sudden, recent success with the MIlD technique. I've had my first 3 lucid dreams in the past 2 weeks..
And for the 3rd LD I had just this morning, I was walking in the hallway with my friend, (I don't hang out with anymore) and he mentions something about dreaming, and I realize and tell him, "oh yeah, I'm dreaming right now!" Then is tapped him on the shoulder and said "just kidding man I'm not dreaming" to avoid him denying me the fact I was indeed dreaming. Then I immediately woke up. Frustrated cause of yet another wasted LD opprotunity..
So here's my final question for you.. How come I keep waking up within minutes of becoming lucid, when even on my first time I made a point to stay calm? I never ran around and shouted "I'm dreaming!" Like other people did to wake themselves up, I simply think, 'okay I'm dreaming. Let's observe.' But before I can observe or really do anything I wake up .-.
Oo I was gonna ask you to post the dream somewhere, I was interested, I hope it isn't taken down by now (given you got into some trouble for it, which is a shame) ima check it out right now!
I'll try to stay calm in future LDs, but in my last one it was as if I didn't have enough time to get too excited, I was just thinking, "I should stabilize the dream.. quick.. before I wake up" but I was in the middle of a hall way talking to my friend. I only had time to get 1 exchange of words and he didn't even have time to respond.
So how do I quickly stabilize a dream once I realize I'm in it? Cause idk I haven't had much time to just touch things around me.
Ohh I see.. I will try this approach.

No its not, I do WILD and Ive hardly ever experienced sleep paralysis, I cant even remember the last time I experienced it. But obviously this is how the threads original poster does her WILDs.
It is possible that someone can lay all night still and yet still not enter a sleep paralysis state. Im a yogi (so I guess what I say can also answer the original posters monk comment in following to yours post) and as part of my practices, Ive meditated for long periods. Due to this I know as i have done so, I can lay completely still for 8-9 hrs in an altered state (meditation trance) and not experience sleep paralyses at all, not experience anything strange at all (no hypogogic images nothing) and not fall asleep at all and still be laying in exactly the same manner when it becames daylight the next day.
Laying still doesnt necessarily mean someone will enter into a dream state or does it mean the person will necessarily experience HI or paralyses but yeah of cause some people do, while others will just continue laying until they fall asleep. No one techinque works for all.
Coffee I do not think would be the answer. You need to be able to like fall asleep to start dreaming. You need to be relaxed both in body and mind for a LD. If you have layed there for an hour or two and nothing has happened, I'd personally suggest you need to change your LD technique as there is probably a far better way for you to be doing it then just laying there. You need to look at what is your issue and what can be done to alter the problem you have. (WILD isnt necessarily a case of just laying there to enter one).
I've only been able to lucid dream twice, mainly using the MILD technique, one of them I even forgot I realized I was dreaming and lost lucidity .-. Should I wait to become more experienced before trying to WILD? So i don't forget and lose lucidity? Or is that not a problem with this WILD technique since I'll be lucid from the beginning of the dream.
I cant talk for others as I dont know how it is for them but for myself it is far harder to loose lucidity in the way of going too deep into a dream if Im LD due to a WILD. Due to being lucid from the beginning.. means Im not as deep. Whereas if I had a spontanous LD, Im often much deeper in a dream and can carry a risk of loosing lucidity due to letting myself go too deep into the dream. Due to this I'd think that WILD may be an advantage to those who loose lucidity and go too deep when dreaming as they may be less likely to do that.
(I know your questions were directed to me but I wanted to make sure you had more then one persons experience on the answers to these as you are likely to get a range of answers based on peoples individual experiences).

The act of thinking about possibly waking up unfortunately can cause a person to wake up. Your response "quick, I need to stabilize" is bound to cause a bit of an adrenaline rush even if a little. What I suggest is to try not to focus on this and instead to stabilise.. without really thinking much about possibly loosing to dream, get in the habit of when becoming aware you are dreaming, put your focus strongly onto you dream. eg You could try looking at your hands.. study them.. rub them together to see how they feel. You could make this stabilise technique your always first dream goal if it works for you.
Now IF (this may or may not be an issue in your case) one is too light in a lucid dream (you may possibly be only spontanously becoming lucid when only in very light dream state and hence your issue with staying in them! it becomes extremely important in such cases to deeper ones dream state), some people will find they cant move without loosing the dream. In this case its a case of once again putting focus on your dream but other stabilization techniques may be needed then other then the moving yourself ones.
eg As you had a friend in your dream, you could of used him to help stabiliize you eg ask him to give you a chinese burn or do something to you so you can focus on his touch (punch you in the arm? Im not sure if that would be a good one or not.. whether it would hold one there or shock one out). One can get the DC to do the moving if one is too light in the dream to move oneself to stabilise.
I suggest before your next LD, think of various ways you could stabilise in certain situations.. so you have various ideas before you next dream but using the DCs in ones dreams I find a good way (if they are there, dont count on DCs always being there).

John Boyega Survives Kaiju Attack in 'Pacific Rim 2'
Warner Bros. Pictures / Legendary Pictures
Megan Logan
John Boyega's probably on the run from a Kaiju in Pacific Rim: Maelstrom. The son of the Stacker Pentecost, a Marshal in the Pan Pacific Defense Corps, Boyega's character seems to have inherited his father's penchant for heroism in the face of danger.
In new photos captured during filming for Pacific Rim: Maelstrom, the sequel to 2013's Pacific Rim, we see Boyega in what looks like a pretty rundown area in tattered clothes. He's carrying some kind of device — it looks like it might be a remote control? maybe some kind of detonator? — and seems to be looking for something. But things apparently go south, relatively quickly. Pentecost Jr. is making a run for it it. And though we can't see what he's running from, a pretty nasty gash on his face suggests that he won't make it out totally unscathed. We still don't know much at all about Pacific Rim: Maelstrom.
In fact, we don't even have a first name for Boyega's character yet, and beyond the fact that he's Stacker Pentecost's son, we don't know anything about him. Filming's clearly underway, though, which means that we'll be getting more information as we draw closer to the films scheduled 2018 release.
Pacific Rim: Maelstrom is scheduled for release in 2018, but no official premiere date has been set.
Attack the Block sequel will take a page from the two greatest sci-fi sequels, director says
The Pod Generation is soft sci-fi satire with too light a touch

Life after gymnastics -- Retired gymnasts deal with sudden weight gain
After retiring from competitive gymnastics, several national team members discovered that maintaining their slim figure wasn't as easy as they initially thought.
The first two days after quitting gymnastics, Simona Amânar gained 6 lbs. "It was a very sudden chance and I was almost terrified," she recalls. No longer under the watchful eye of national team coaches, she was free to enjoy everything that was a "forbidden fruit" until recently. "We were allowed to eat almost anything we wanted at Deva, but only in small quantities. So the first week I got back from Sydney, I was on a steady diet of two chocolate bars and three ice-creams a day. I didn't want anything else." By the end of last year, Simona was already 10 lbs heavier than she was in Sydney. "I took on weight very suddenly, and then it slowed down. I was gaining at most 2 lbs per month." Even though this wasn't an unexpected change, Simona's reaction was somewhere between resignation, worrying, and useless stress. "I just felt my stomach getting bigger and bigger. Not to mention I had to buy new clothes. I gave my cousins all the clothes I had from my gymnastics days, some of them brand new that I never worn. I couldn't even fit my leg inside my pants," she confessed.
Simona believes the weight gain is due mainly to lack of training. "There are days when I'll hardly eat anything and I won't lose an ounce. It's like they're welded to me." She does remember that the months before taking her school finals, when she went to class and played basketball and tennis every week, she lost more than 4 lbs. "I gained them back right away. And not because I touched any of my favorite foods, like vegetable cream soup, or French fries," she jokes. She is determined to take a stand. "This can't go on. My mother, who is 50 years old, weighs 100lbs, and I weigh 120. After finals, I'll start running or some exercise."
After Sydney, Maria Olaru spent a few days in her hometown of Fãlticeni. "When I was there I just drank milk instead of water. I was dying to eat dairy foods, so they were part of my diet every day," she explains. She would gain 16 lbs in the next two weeks. "And this happened without any excess in eating on my part. In fact, if I ate the same way I did in Deva, I'd be obese by now. The only thing I missed there were poached eggs. I couldn't eat too many of them because they made some of my teammates sick. So, I couldn't eat them either."
Lately, vegetable salad is the only meal she'll have all day, and some days not even that. "Like, yesterday for example I only ate one apple, and today I am yet to eat anything.
As for sweets, they never did much for me". Still, the extra pounds don't seem to come off. She's now almost 20 pounds heavier than in Sydney, but Maria remains optimistic. She's on a diet and exercises every day, hoping she'll somehow get through this.
Ice-cream time!
After quitting gymnastics, Corina Ungureanu went through periods dedicated almost exclusively to her favorite foods. First it was chocolate, then cookies, and finally it was time for ice-cream. 5 months after leaving Deva following the 99 Worlds, Corina had gained 10 lbs. "Food wasn't the reason, because I ate less than when I was a gymnast, but I was missing the extra physical effort I was used to," she says. It was a year in which she had to come to terms with her new figure. "Then, I started losing weight. Just like I gained it, without doing anything special. As a gymnast, I weighed 100 lbs, now I weight 107, give or take."
Not a sweet tooth
Former gymnastics great Lavinia Milosovici remembers that after quitting gymnastics she gained almost 30 lbs. "Despite that, I don't have too many food craving. I wasn't crazy about sweets, and I ate more home cooked meals," says Milo. She says that she started losing weight after about 8 months, without any special exercise program or diets. "It's normal. All gymnasts gain weight after quitting. While competing, we took vitamins to compensate for lack of certain food. When we were no longer required to take pills, we had to assure our vitamin intake through our diet, just like everyone else does."
Stealing food
Rodica Dunca, World champion and Olympic silver medallist, says she got so hungry at a meet in Norway, she stole a case of strawberries form a garden and ate them all, leaves and mud included. "I was with my teammates, all of us starved. When Bela Karoly put us on the scale, all of us weighed one or two pounds more. The next way we weren't given any food," she recalls. Rodica Dunca kept several journals. An important part of this was the section of "Menu once I get back home". For 4 pages, she listed 83 courses she would like to eat after the Olympics. Among them, fried chicken and cheese cake. "I have 3 days and 4 nights to bear and then I'll eat until my stomach bursts," she wrote during the 1980 Olympic Games.
Not even one chocolate bar
Even though Claudia Presãcan joined the national rowing team right after quitting gymnastics, and trained with them until June, she hasn't escaped the pounds onslaught either. "The first three months after Sydney, I gained 10 lbs. And this happened even though I don't remember eating a chocolate bar or anything else that could have really counted," says Claudia.
She does admit pasta is her favorite meal and she ate them whenever she had a chance. Not that she has any regrets. "At least with all this weight gain, I know I don't have to buy new clothes. Before, all my clothes were a little small. Now they fit perfectly."
Former national team doctor, Ioachim Oanã believes gaining weight after retirement is a natural and reversible process.
PS: Do the gymnasts at Deva have a special diet?
IO: No, they eat everything. But every meal is well balanced.
PS: Meaning...?
IO: Well, every time they need to get their protein and carbohydrate intake taken care of. Fat is almost nonexistent. Vitamins and minerals are also a must.
PS: So they can eat as much as they want to?
IO: No, but a little bit of everything. For example, when I was there, they had legume soup twice a week.
PS: How do you explain the fact that many gymnasts gain weight after retiring?
IO: It's normal. Usually, the transition lasts about 60 days. But girls don't gain that much weight. This is explained by the break in exercise and everything they eat stays on. Their metabolism slows down.
PS: You talked about a transition period.
IO: As soon as Nadia quit gymnastics he gained 10 lbs. After about 2 months, she was back to her regular weight. Now she looks like a super model.
PS: But how do you explain the fact that Simona and Maria gained almost 20 lbs since they retired?
IO: This is exactly what I was talking about. This isn't a case of obesity or hormonal deregulations. Both of them will be back to a normal weight before long.
