Chinese Olympic Committee Vice-President Zhang Faqiang has officially confirmed that wushu will be featured at the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, the China News Service reported yesterday. Zhang was quoted as saying that wushu or kungfu, will neither be a medal sport nor a mere demonstration. Instead, the event featuring it will be named the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games Wushu Competition. The event won't share the demonstration status that taekwondo enjoyed at the 1988 and 1992 Olympics and is not going to be included as an official sport for the Beijing Games. But its Olympics debut will "have extremely significant implications" for wushu's eventual entry as a competitive event, said Li Jie, chairman of the China Martial Arts Association. Currently, all of the 28 Olympic sports, with the exception of judo and taekwondo, originated in either Europe or North America. Wushu practitioners in China, numbered around several tens of millions, view this opportunity as "the first step in a long march of 10,000 li (5,000 km)," said Zhang. China has been actively advocating wushu since the early 1980s. The establishment of the International Wushu Federation (IWUF) in Beijing in 1991 escalated its global expansion and Olympic push. The IWUF was accepted into the General Association of International Sports Federation in 1994 and fully recognized by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) in February 2002. IWUF currently has 114 martial arts associations from five continents. --__--__-- Message: 6 Date: Wed, 3 Oct 2007 20:48:55 -0700 (PDT) From: Jye nigma To: the_dojang@martialartsresource.net Subject: [The_Dojang] MANswers Reply-To: the_dojang@martialartsresource.net Ok, a while back, I posted a question about sex affecting competition. I just finished watching a show that discussed this question. The results, sex before a competition does NOT negatively affect one's performance in competition. Also it doesn't affect testoserrone.(sp?) levels. This info based on research done by some doc in the field. Cool! Jye --------------------------------- Don't let your dream ride pass you by.

With all the scandals in the news today, it's a delicate subject. I know it's not our job to broach sex education with the youth in our schools. I was trying to understand what is said to the kids when they discover that rule #2 is "good sex". Do you hide it from them? Do you gloss over it and say something like: "It's for the grown ups."? Do you strictly separate the kid's class from the adult class and is rule #2 part of the decision making process in determining if the student is going to be in the adult class or the kid's class? Do you give a "p.c." or age appropriate answer? What criteria do you use to determine the timing of the introduction of rule #2? I'm just trying to get a handle on what you guys/gals do here.

Instead of "Healthy sexual behavior" or "Good sex" turn it into "Love of friends" or something along that line. Then explain to the adults, when the kids aren't around, the real #2 and why you've changed it a bit. But then again I don't teach kids, so what do I know.
