People These Days Think Life Is In A Screen.

Say Hi to Gabby

Once you read this article you might want to go outside and be active instead of sitting on a couch watching Youtube, Netflix, playing video games, and eating junk food.

Starting With Her early Life

Gabrielle Christina Victoria was born December 31, 1995, born in Newport News, Virginia, and is an American artistic Gymnast. She won gold medals for both individual awards and group awards.

2008 Douglas had her chance in the spotlight in 2008 at the US Classic in Houston, Texas. First she placed 10th and then she placed 16th. Everyone knew she wasn’t gonna make it in the Junior Women’s National Team.

2009 Gabby suffered a terrible injury, she had a fracture in the growth plate of her wrist. Because of this she was unable to compete in the 2009 Cover Girl US Classic and missed it. When she competed in Dallas, Texas for the Visa Championships, Douglas was unable to perform her full routines.

2010 She competed at the 2010 Nastia Liukin Supergirl Cup which was held at Worcester ,Massachusetts , where she was placed fourth all-around. Her first elite meet was 2010 cover girl classic in Chicago, Illinois. She placed 3rd on balance beam,6th on vault, and 9th in all-around in the junior division. Gabby won the silver medal on balance beam, placed 4th in all around and on vault, and tied for eighth on floor exercise.2010 Pan American championships in Guadalajara, Mexico, Douglas won the uneven bars title and won a share of the U.S. team gold medal. She also placed 5th in all-around. In October 2010, at the age 14, Douglas moved from VIrginia Beach to west Des Moines, Iowa, to train under Liang chow , the former coach of 2007 World championship and 2008 Summer Olympics gold medalist Shawn Johnson. Although Douglas' former coach, Walker, stated in 2012 that she was convinced Douglas could have made it to the Olympics if she had remained in Virginia Beach, Douglas said, "Something clicked in my head that said, if I really want to make this happen I need to get better coaching."Douglas considered a move to Texas to train with a renowned coach there, but after that coach declined to train her out of loyalty to Walker, Douglas selected Chow. Chow was initially skeptical, since Douglas had been just one of hundreds of kids at the clinic in Virginia Beach. However, Chow subsequently informed Douglas's Excalibur coaches that he had agreed to train her, but pointed out that he did not recruit her, saying, "I would never recruit anybody to my program." Later on, Gabby suffered from a hamstring strain and a hip flexor injury in July. She couldn't do much during this time, but this allowed her to improve her bar skills.

Monday, December 7, 2015 12:37:27 PM

2011 At the City of Jesolo Trophy in Italy, Gabby was part of the US team that won gold. She also placed second on floor, tied for third on beam, and placed fourth in the all-around and on vault. Douglas earned the silver medal in uneven bars at the Cover Girl Classic in Chicago. 2012 At the at&t American cup at Madison square Garden in march, Douglas received the highest total all-around score in the women's competition , ahead of her teammate and current world champion Jordyn Wieber. However, her scores did not count towards winning the competition because she was an alternate, she was a part of the gold-winning U.S. team at the Pacific Rim championships, where she also won gold in uneven bars.later in March, she was part of the gold-winning U.S. team at the Pacific rim championships, where she also won gold in uneven bars. At the 2012 U.S. National championships in June, Douglas won the gold medal in uneven bars, silver in the all-around, and bronze in floor., the National Team Coordinator for USA Gymnastics, nicknamed Douglas the "Flying Squirrel" for her aerial performance on the Uneven bars. At the 2012 Olympic Trials held in San Jose, California, on July 1, Douglas placed first in the all-around rankings, securing the only guaranteed spot on the women's Olympic gymnastic team. Summer Olympics

Douglas and her teammate, McKayla Maroney, Aly Raisman, Kyla Ross, and Jordyn Wieber (nicknamed the “Fierce Five”),won the team all-around gold medal at the team all-around at the 2012 summer Olympics. She then won the gold medal in the individual all-around,becoming the first African-American Woman, as well as the first woman of color of any nationality, to win the event. She is also the first American gymnast ever to win both the team and individual all-around gold at the same Olympics. She is the first all-around champion to fail to medal in an individual event since women's gymnastics was added to the Olympics in 1952.

2013-2014 In August 2013, Douglas moved to Los Angeles to be with her family. Although she was no longer training with Chow, she said that she was still preparing to compete in the 2016 Olympics.

In mid-April 2014, Douglas returned to Iowa to train once more with Coach Chow, in an attempt to qualify for the 2016 Olympics in Rio. Chow and his wife were delighted to have Gabby return to the Iowa gym, which they had not expected she would after her departure to Los Angeles in summer 2013. Gabby was to have trained alongside national team member Rachel Gowey and promising junior Norah Flatley, who many consider similar to both Gabby and Shawn in performance style.

In mid-july, it was announced that Douglas had once again left Chow's Gymnastics and dance institute. She remained in the market for a new coach until the beginning of August, when news broke that douglas would train with Kittia Carpenter at buckeye Gymnastics in Columbus, OH. Nia Dennis, National team member, also trains at Buckeye. Carpenter announced that Douglas would not aim to return to competition at the 2014 national championships, as previously planned, but would instead train with a goal of returning in time for Worlds 2015. The stated reasoning for Douglas's delay is that she wishes to return as strong - or stronger - as when she left. National Team Coordinator Marta Karolyi, who expressed satisfaction and some surprise with Douglas's physical condition at her first two national team training camps back (while she was once again working with Chow), commented on Douglas's planned comeback in OH, "My wish is that she will be consistent in her training. And if that's what she will do, I think she will be fine. But if she jumps up and down and left and right, it will be much harder." After participating in several national team camps in 2014, on November 25,2014 Douglas was added back on the team to the U.S national team, along with Olympic teammate Aly Raisman and former Chow's Gymnastics teammate Rachel Gowey. 2015

In march 2015, Douglas returned to international competition at the USA win gold in the team competition and also placed 4th all-around behind defending world Champion, Simone Biles, newcomer, Bailie Key and Olympic teammate Aly Raisman.In July, Douglas competed at the U.S. Classic and finished second in the all-around behind 2-time World All-Around Champion Simone Biles and ahead of Maggie Nichols with a score of 60.500.she had a consistent night hitting clean routine. She placed second on uneven bars behind Madison Kocian and ahead of Bailie Key with a score of 15.400,third on balance beam behind Biles and Olympic teammate Aly Raisman with a score of 14.900, second on floor exercise behind Biles and ahead of Key and Nichols with a score of 15.000.on August 13 and 15,Douglas competed at the pa and g championships indianapolis ind where she placed 5th overall with a score of 117.950,placing behind Simone Biles, Maggie Nichols, Aly Raisman.

You just met Gabby Douglas and learned about her lifetime experiences, I hope this story inspired you to create your story. 0

Natalie Nicole Leger you might know her as the volleyball girl and that’s it but here are more details behind what you know. Natalie is the daughter of Jerry and Caroline and Stefan’s younger sister. Natalie is currently 5’9 and a Junior born on September 4, 1995 Manhasset, New York but her hometown is Woodmere, New York.

January 2012, 8th grader Natalie Leger had a love for volleyball. As she started High School she positioned as a Defensive Specialist in Lawrence High School. One day she was in a club volleyball team in Pennsylvania when she was diagnosed. She has been suffering weeks of chest pains thinking it was fatigue signs, but she was wrong. Worrying, Natalie was eager to play volleyball but made the right decision and got medical help. An MRI made it clear that Natalie had “a large mass of a bunch of small tumors” called Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, cancer in the immune system (lymphatic system), which is why she has been feeling pain in her chest so often. However, Hodgkin’s Lymphoma is curable, well at least more than other types of cancer. Roughly about four months later, Natalie had a lot of chemotherapy regimen divided in four cycles having each be three weeks and it was hard for her since her body was not used to these constant regimen treatments.

Cancer Free! After a couple of months of Natalie’s treatments worked! However, when she went back to playing volleyball the treatments affected her body which made her weaker. After she realized this, she noticed that it would be hard, and it was, to grasp the attention of those who were college coaches, but almost in the end of the season, a volleyball coach came to see Natalie play! That coach announced how of a hard worker she was and all the potential she has which really got the college coaches attention. Natalie is still in High School today, but we can all see that she has a big career ahead of her!

A Day And A Life With Andres Guardado Beginning with his heritage I start

with Spanish naming customs. What I am getting at is the maternal family names Jose Andres Gerdado, was the first of 2 names. The second being Andres Hernandez. Andres Hernandez is a Hispanic professional football player who plays for Dutch club PSV. Eindhoven and the Mexico national team mainly as a Midfielder, but also as a left winger and a left back.Popularly known as Principito (little prince), he came through the youth ranks at Atlas, the signed with Deportivo in Spain, going on to remain with the club for several seasons, four in La Liga. In 2012 he joined another team in the country, Valencia making 44 appearances in all competitions in his first season. Guardado would spend the next two season on loan, to German club Bayer Leverkusen and Eredivisie side PSV Eindhoven, ultimately signing a permanent deal with the latter in 2015. Fact credit to Wikipedia.In my opinion I think Andres Guardado is the best soccer player in Mexican history. Every time Mexico plays my mother and I get so excited we post Facebook pictures of us with the Mexican team shirt on. Andres inspires me to be a better soccer player. I dream of someday I would meet him.

Jennifer kirk was born August 15,1984. Something I was sad about is that on September 7, 2005 seeing that she was really good and wanting to see her live, but saw a small paragraph that she has retired. I of course managed to find video clips to keep up with her past before retiring, Soon after a while Jennifer came out of retirement and hit the Ice again. Jennifer kirk, if you are reading this? I am 10 years old, I am your #1 fan. Jennifer Kirk moved to Toyota sports center in EL Segundo, California. Jennifer tried her best and got the bronze medal in 2004, right when I was born, yeah! did you know that she was going to retire before competing figure skating? she moved to boston where she worked as a coach and the sad thing is that she quit competing the day before the Olympics was practice. She was a member of the U.S. Figure skating internationals. She inspired me so much. I really want you to be on the ice ring again. Before I was born she retired, but she did win 1st place in the world junior championships. There is one more thing I was sad about:( is that she never made it to the U.S Olympic team in 2002, I was not born yet, I was born July 2, 2004. When I was ten I saw Ice Skating on tv and I said “I love ice skating” and so I did some research and I found Jennifer Kirk. I said to myself, “who is this I been watching” ice skating for over 10 months and I never saw her, so that is when my research began out that she retired

I cannot say enough good things about our stay, and the owner, Sharon. I mentioned it was our one year anniversary and she had a surprise for my wife in our family room: A nice set of flowers with a card that said 'happy anniversary', along with rose petals that were set up near the entrance of our bedroom and it led to a huge heart on the bed. Sharon gave us a lot of suggestions on what to do, was very informative, and even gave us an anniversary gift card as well. I have never had a hotel or cabin owner ever go above and beyond like she did, and I have no doubt that we will stay here next time we are in Big Bear. Prices are reasonable, and the cottage we stayed in (#3) was clean, and had a very homey feel to it. Plus, the location is great (within a mile from the village). There are a lot of other amenities we never used that were outdoors, but it's a spot we can take our family and our little nephews maybe next summer. If you are looking for a quiet place that is clean, cozy, and comfortable, look no further than here. Plus, the owner being so awesome was icing on the cake. Doug P. Huntington Beach, CA

Chee Leading

r

With Emily

Harer

p

I have loved cheer my entire life so i decide to write about Emily Harper. Emily Harper was born on February 16, 1978. She is 37 years old. Her birth sign was Aquarius. Emily cheered for an NBA team. When she was on break she would interview the basketball players on Lakers tv show called Laker Girl. Emily Harper was born in Cincinnati, Ohio. Emily got her cheer training from her Mom and her Sister. Emily’s job now is an actress. I think that she should be a cheer coach because she has a lot of cheer experience. She can help the little ones that want to be a cheerleader as they get older. When she was little her life was really hard because her Dad would abuse her and her Mom slapped her if she got mad. (Emily married life included, Leopold George Acland and Hugh Maude Reves).

After she finished cheer she started to do acting and her career took off. Emily Harper started appearing in a whole lot of shows, 1 being passions Fancy Crane. My opinion on Emily Harper is that she would be a great role model to other girls and younger girls that are having a hard time in life. Her fashion was nice by her pictures. She really loved yellow or she took too many pictures in the color yellow.

When I think of Emily’s childhood I thought to myself “Man I would not want to be her”’ I'm glad that I’m not!

Ochoa And The Dos Santos Brothers Benched.

By: Alexandra Vega-Rodriguez James Workman Middle School

Ricardo Ferretti Mexico’s soccer interim coach denies Guillermo Ochoa number 13 goalkeeper for mexico and the Dos Santos brothers Jonathan number 6 and Giovani number 10, are not playing against America in the up coming game with the rest of the team, all because of the new temporary coach .Coach Ferretti, born in Brazil which is in charge only till half mid-October said no answer or reason for his sudden choice of change. Though earlier this week he claimed that he was going to call the flock of the group that won the CONCACAF Gold Cup in the United States. Ferretti, the temporarily coach, who was sent from the Mexican club UANL Tigres, is suppose to be preparing team Mexico for a face off with the U.S soccer team, winners of the Gold Cup in 2013 in Los Angeles October 10, in a playoff for a berth at the 2017 Confederations Cup. “I’m not here as the savior. We’re thinking of winning,” is what coach Ferretti said during his presentation. “Getting the ticket the federation wants, we’re all going to work together to achieve the desired objective. The United States is the key issue. There’s little time but there is a base from the Copa America and Gold Cup… I don’t have a magic wand.” he said sarcastically. Last month Herrera got fired for allegedly punching a reporter who criticized his team’s performance in the Copa America game in June and the Gold Cup.

Abby Wambach was born on June 2, 1980 in New York. She was so good that she won the title of the 2015 world cup. But in 2011 the team lost to Japan in the finals in the FIFA world cup, But that did not stop the girls. Next year in the 2012, FIFA WORLD CUP, the team fought back for that medal. She also lead the team twice for the Olympic gold medals! Abby played soccer when she was in school and she held the record for 96 goals! That is a lot of hard work to do that! Did you know that she also played basketball? Winning the World cup

Winning the world cup must have meant a lot for her because she knew that all of that hard work was worth it! But this also means that all of the focus is on them now. So now they have to work hard to still be at the top and to not let anyone beat them if they really want to win. I am saying this because all of the other teams want to win and what happens if they get stronger which means this is more of a challenge for all of the teams.

Feelings about Abby Wambach

Feelings about Abby Wambach. She really cares about her team and wants to win to have a better future with her team. In the future she will be a good inspiration for people not to say that you are bad! Imagine how hard she must have worked to get to the top! She must have never thought that she was never going to make it to the top. She believed in herself and her team. It was very good to have that in herself.

Los Angeles Lakers Kobe Bryant calls it quits ending his 20th year career in the LA Lakers. 37 year old Kobe Bryant made the announcement in a post to the players. A third leading scorer wrote a poem that was entitled “ Dear Basketball” to announce his decision.Kobe said, “My heart can take the pounding. My mind can handle the grind. But my body knows it’s time to say goodbye, and that’s ok, i’m ready to let you go, I want you to know so we both can savor every moment we have left together, the good and the bad. We have given each other all that we have.”

Kobe went straight from high school in suburban Philadelphia to the Lakers in 1996, Bryant earned 5 championship rings and 17 All Star selections during two decades with the franchise the longest tenure with one team in NBA history. Bryant also won two Olympic gold medals, but Bryant’s last three seasons have ended early due to injuries, and he played in 41 games over the previous two years. He has struggled mightily in the 15 games of this season with mostly young teammates on a rebuilding roster, making a career worse 32 percent of his shots and dealing with pain and exhaustion every day. In current months Kobe repeatedly said that he did not know whether if he could play another season, and clearly hoping for a rebound in his health and the Lakers fortunes. Neither of those happened, and Bryant did not wait longer to decide his future. “ Kobe is one of the greatest players in the history of our game,” NBA Commissioner Adam Silver said. “Whether competing in the finals or hoisting jump shots after midnight in an empty gym, Kobe has an unconditional love for the game. I join Kobe’s millions of fans around the world congratulating him on an outstanding NBA career and we thank him for many thrilling memories.”Even during his late career struggles, Bryant’s fans have remained devoted to the 6 foot-6 star who won titles alongside Shaquille O’Neal in 2000, 2001, and 2002 before teaming with Pau Gasol for two more in 2009 and 2010. Only 13 players in league history played on more championship teams than Bryant.

The Lakers hosted the Indiana pacers on Sunday night, coach Byron Scott said that Bryant intended to play, even after playing 34 minutes at Portland on Saturday night.“I know his purpose is to finish out this season and play”, said Scott, Bryant’s teammate during 1996-97 season “It’s always sad when greatness decides to hang it up… I thought he had at least another year in him,”

Bryant is the NBA’s highest paid player this season with $25 million salary bestowed on him by grateful Lakers owner Jim Buss despite his recent injury problems. Bryant has been tirelessly devoted to the franchise, repeatedly declaring he would never play for another NBA team despite the Lakers wholesale rebuilding process following the tragic 2012-13 season with Dwight Howard and Steve Nash. Bryant’s departure will allow the Lakers to finish straddling the past and the future, with young prospects like Julius Randle, D’Angelo Russell, and Jordan Clarkson taking on the leading roles rather than deferring to their superstar teammate. Bryant repeatedly declared that he didn’t want a farewell tour in the style of Kareem Abdul Jabber or Derek Jeter his friend and The Players, Tribune founder. Yet the Lakers eight game road trip beginning next week is almost certain to begin a prolonged goodbye to Bryant, one of the NBA’s most popular and most isolating players.

“Its tough to see one of the absolute greatest competitors go through this,” Miami guard Dwyane Wade told The Associated press on Sunday, prior to Bryant making his announcement. “You can put a team around a guy to help a guy, especially in his late career. They are just not in position right now to do that. He’s won five championships, so no one feels bad for him from that standpoint. But from a standpoint of seeing one of this era’s greatest players go out in a rebuilding process. It’s tough."Bryant has already received long ovations on road trips this season, particularly in places like New York and Miami.The Lakers next road game is in Philadelphia or perhaps not doing to the given news of Bryant’s announcement.“ Philly is where I grew up,” Bryant told AP in an interview in Miami earlier this month. “ It’s always a different emotion there than anywhere else.” Bryant was the first guard ever to be drafted out of the high school, taken 13th overall by the Charlotte Hornets and traded to the Lakers. Although he won the dunk contest at All-Star weekend as a rookie, his Lakers didn’t become title contenders until coach Phil Jackson arrived in 1999 and built a three time champion around Kobe and Shaq. Bryant made a fourth NBA finals appearance in 2004 despite his preseason arrest for sexual assault and subsequent legal proceedings that sometimes required him to fly from Colorado to Los Angeles on game days. The assault case against Bryant was dropped in September 2004, but his behavior affected his reputation.

Bryant scored 81 points against Toronto on January 22, 2006, the highest scoring performance in NBA history behind Wilt Chamberlain’s 100 point game.

Cristiano Ronaldo? Ohhhh... Only the best soccer player EVER. A soccer player since he was a young boy and grew up to be a professional player for Manchester United and Real Madrid. Born on February 5, 1985 in Madeira, Portugal. Son of Jose Dinis Aveiro and Maria Dolores dos santos Aveiro. Ronaldo was introduced into soccer at an early age through his father working as an equipment manager at a boy's club. By the time he was ten he was recognized as a phenomenon, Ronaldo was known to only to eat, sleep, and play soccer. When he was eight he played for an Amateur team, Andorinha, (“Amazing” - Sofia). Later on, he was signed with a local club national in 1995 after winning a title-winning campaign, went to a three day trial with Sporting CP. After a long childhood of playing soccer (football) Ronaldo is now on the real Madrid team and also Manchester United. Years of winning great awards such as the, FIFA Ballon d’or. Cristiano Ronaldo is known for being an awesome player… so great! that other teams would pay about 125 million for Cristiano Ronaldo to play on their team. Ronaldo, such an awesome player and still has time for family. As right now he has a son named Cristiano Ronaldo Jr. A young curious and talented individual. Following in his father’s footsteps, Jr. always plays off his skills in “football” (soccer) at any chance he has. In conclusion, Ronaldo is the #1 player of the world!!!!

They Call Him Ronaldo

Junior runner, Meghan Vogel (17) yr old at West Liberty Salem High school, she was in last place in 3,200 meter run as when she caught up with Arden McMath, who seemed to be limping, fell in front of her. Meghan was a state champion runner, she has won many awards such as the 1,600 meter run and received fourth place. However, she did not have much time to get ready for her next run, the 3,200 meter run. She was in last place for the 3,200 meter run, but she always made sure to show a smile to her mother. Her mother, Ann Vogel, joked around about her daughter being last place but she soon realized that she was falling out of her pace and needed to stop. Meghan kept running with every last bit of energy when suddenly, a runner in front of her, Arden McMath, which she has never met, started to shake and lose control of her legs. Until soon, she collapsed in one of the last laps. Meghan had a hesitation of what to do, but she finally picked up Arden and carried her to the finish line. The crowd grew loud in noise cheering for both Arden and Meghan. Ann quickly searched for her daughter when the coach told her to look at the screen. Ann was proud of finding her daughter helping out another component that she does not even know, carrying her to the end of the finish line. Not only that but Meghan purposely passed Arden across the finish line before herself. Arden finished the 3,200 meter run in 12:29:90 while Meghan finished in 12:30:24. As soon as they finished passing the finish line, Meghan felt weak and nauseous. Grabbing her mother for support, the trainer guided her to shelter for her to rest in. “I do not consider myself to be a hero.” Meghan claims, “I just did what I knew was right and what I was supposed to do.”

“Does Solo still have Hope?”

From the beginning of Hope Solos’ career she was always a talented soccer player. Though she was encountered with numerous obstacles, she still kept at her game and excelled at her sport. Even at the time of her college years, Solo was told she could be the very best, they were all right. For instance, she not only became one of the top goalies during her college years, but she also achieved 4 honors, 1 gold medal at the 2008 summer Olympics in Beijing, and she helped the U.S. women’s team win the FIFA Women’s world cup! Not surprised, during the 2012 Olympic games in London, she had blocked as many as 12 goals out of 13! By far, she has many young girls and even older women inspired with her great efforts and hard work in the soccer world as an amazing goalie!

This two-time gold medalist is currently 34 years old, born in July 30, 1981, in Richland Washington. Married to Jerramy Stevens, a 35 year old former NFL player. Hope Solo started as a forward on the Richland High School soccer team, Solo scored 109 goals in this position. She then moved forward as being one of the top goalies at her university at University of Washington. Besides being a soccer player, she competed in Dancing with the Stars in the U.S, season 13. She was the ninth to be eliminated, during the time she accused her partner, Maksim Chmerkovskiy, that he slapped her."He manhandled me in rehearsals from the start, pushing me, whacking my stomach, bending my arms roughly. I thought that was just how it went -- how dancers worked with each other," the athlete wrote. "But it kept getting worse. One day, Maksim was trying to put me in a certain position and hit my stomach so hard with his open palm that I had a red hand print there for the rest of the day."Hope Solo said. www.usmagazine.com In June 2014, she caused many troubles, hope solo’s legal trouble led to complicating world cup coverage. June 21, 2014 shortly after midnight police arrived to Hope Solo’s half sister Teresa Obert’s home, and they were told that Solo repeatedly punch Solo’s half sister and Obert’s 17-year old son. They were also told that the 17-year old son broke a broomstick on Solo to stop her from assaulting her mother. In Solo’s side of the story is that, her nephew hit her with a broomstick just after he told her that she is fat and not very athletic. Solo was combative while the officers were trying to handcuff her, they had to force her on the ground when the police were trying to book her into jail, Solo also yelled at one officer saying “You’re such a b***h . You’re scared of me because you know that if this handcuffs were off, I’d kick your ass.” And more insults were yelled at the officer.

Personally I think that she is going to continue her great skills and or hobbies (soccer) and become even better and maybe, be in the Olympics once again. We really think and hope that she will have a good rest of her life and she will live the best. I just hope that Hope Solo won’t be involve in anymore troubles.
