Although she looks forward to rowing for National Coach Hartmut Buschbaker, she says she is sad to leave her teammates and the Radcliffe program. "Part of what I love about the sport is Radcliffe Crew," she says. "It will be a hard adjustment...
...truth is, all the pieces the team needs to win a gold medal this summer are in place here at the Women's National Training Center in Chattanooga, Tennessee: eight experienced, mature, ferociously strong athletes; Yazmin Farooq, their coxswain, cheerleader and sometime nemesis; and Hartmut Buschbacher, their unsmiling East German coach who really does have a warm and fuzzy center in there somewhere.

Only a few old functionaries have prospered since unification. Hartmut Lehmann, a veteran engineer with the Transport Ministry, made plans in 1989 to start a construction business in Hungary where, he says, "capitalist trends had already begun." Unification changed his mind: he stayed at home to found Economy & Market, a monthly journal aimed at eastern Germany's new entrepreneurs, and a construction firm with 200 workers. He recently bought the old East German trade-union newspaper Tribune for a mere $85,000, converted it into a nonpolitical daily and moved to make it more efficient and profitable by replacing...
