The Oscars 2017 by Erle and Daniela The Oscars is an annual award winning ceremony, where awards are given out to recognize excellence in cinematic achievements. The winners are rewarded with a copy of a statuette called Academy Award of Merit, commonly known by its nickname "Oscars". The statue is a metal man standing on a film roll and holding a sword. Oscars is given out by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. The Academy's voting membership gets to decide who gets nominated, and awarded. The first ceremony was in 1929 on radio, and later in 1953 it got televised for the first time. The Oscars where held on February 26, 2017. It takes place yearly at the Dolby Theatre, in Los Angeles California. This year was the 89th Academy Award ceremony with Jimmy Kimmel as host. The Oscars honored the movies of 2016. There is a lot of excitement around this event. It can be seen live from more than 200 countries, and streamed online, which makes it easier for everyone to keep up. As well as the Oscars are about the awards, they're also about the shocking and fabulous dresses and suits. This is often a big focus on social media, which has become quite normal. The gossip and the revealing news are as well a big part of the Oscars. There were 24 different categories and many nominated. Some of the winners were Emma Stone (from "La La Land") as best Actress in a leading role, Casey Affleck (from "Manchester by the Sea") as best Actor in a leading role, "La La Land" as best music and "Moonlight" as best picture. "La La Land" was as a mishap, declared winner of Oscars 2017 best picture honors by the presenters Warren Beatty and Faye Dunawaye. When the team of the movie held their acceptance speech they got stopped, and it was cleared that it was made a mistake. The team of "La La Land" handled it well, and gave the Oscar further to the team of "Moonlight". "La La Land" won six awards, including a win of Emma Stone. http://oscar.go.com/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Academy_Awards https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/89th_Academy_Awards www.oscar.go.com https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/89th_Academy_Awards Things to do in Honolulu by Hannah Honolulu is the capital of Hawaii.

  • Tim Howard's Goal Is to Help People with Toure E Syndrome
    MENTAL HEALTH APRIL/MAY 2013 BY TODD FARLEY Tim Howard's Goal Is to Help People with Toure}e Syndrome ~e US soccer star explains how he overcame the stigma of Toure}e syndrome tics to become one of the best goalkeepers in the world. Few people understand the stigma of Tourette's syndrome (TS) as well as Tim Howard, whose condition was mocked by the English press when the American goalkeeper first moved overseas to play for professional club Manchester United in 2003. A longtime stalwart for the U.S. World Cup soccer team who now plays with pro club Everton, Howard was often called "retarded" by British tabloids because of his TS. Today, Howard brushes off those slights as "ignorance" on the part of people trying to sell newspapers. But those headlines were not the only way Howard's condition was remarked on publicly. English fans traditionally make up songs about players on the field. While Howard's nationality is frequently targeted in the songs about him, so is his TS. In fact, Howard's own fans at Manchester United concluded their chant about Tim—sung to the tune of "Chim, Chim, Cher-ee" from Mary Poppins—with the chorus, "Tim, Tim, Timery ... says F-you!" While Howard is able to laugh off the songs—even going so far as to call the Manchester chant a "warm embrace" of his condition—they exemplify both the stigma TS can entail and the misunderstanding that many people have about the symptoms. Chronic Tics In fact, TS is a neurologic disorder defined by chronic tics.

  • Goal Player” Fall 2014
    WSA: Introducing “The Goal Player” Fall 2014 At the last World Cup we have all been able to enjoy the German goalkeeper Manuel Neuer who without a doubt showed that the position of the goalkeeper and his role on the team has changed dramatically over the last 10-20 years. This is of course due to the rule change in 1994 which made it no longer possible for goalkeepers to pick up a pass back from one of their team mates. This rule change, however was made 20 years ago, and is not the only reason why the role oF the goalkeeper has changed so much over the last several years. More teams nowadays focus on a well-developed build up from the back, teams push many players Forward to keep the opponents under pressure and the defensive line often plays very high up the pitch. To stay connected with the rest oF the team the goalkeeper is now required to step up away from its backline and serve as the last defender or the sweeper keeper. More than 70% of the work goalkeepers do nowadays is done with their feet and not with their hands! Due to all of these changes the role oF the goalkeeper has changed and the goalkeeper is now not only a keeper, but a field player that is able to his or her hands. Although worldwide many goalkeepers have become “goal players” many young goalkeepers in the US are not instructed or trained to include themselves when their team has the ball. This might be because many of the best soccer players the US produced over the years were great goalkeepers (Tony Meola, Brad Friedel, Kasey Keller and Tim Howard) who controlled the 6th yard boX.

The referee tosses a coin and the team that wins the toss, decides whether to attack or defend in the first ADG contest. The teams receive an additional substitution. The referee meets separately with the teams and records their five attackers. The attacker receives the ball at the ADG mark, which is 32 yards from the goal line. Having seen the attacker, the opposition field their defender. eTh defender and goalkeeper must be at least 10 yards from the ball until it is in play. Half the field is in play. The attacker kicks off and has 20 seconds to try and score a goal. The contest will end if any of the following occur: • A goal is scored • The ball goes out of play • The goalkeeper controls the ball with their hands inside the penalty area • The 20 seconds elapses • The attacker commits a foul If the defender or goalkeeper commits a foul, the attacker is awarded a penalty kick, and the 20 second time period is disregarded for the remainder of that contest.

One thing he’s learned about the Danes: They eat the ugliest foods I’ve ever seen. They have this pork liver. It’s brown and chopped up with a bunch of little balls in it. I’ll never eat it. Birthright: I moved to the U.S. when I was 6, but I was born in Rio. I can samba, but not like you see Ronaldinho doing in games. Hidden on-field talent: My vision—seeing things that aren’t in front of me. Hidden off-field talent: I guarantee I’m the best dancer on the team. World Cup pregame pump- up song: “Champagne Supernova,” by Oasis. Sorry, ladies: My girlfriend came over to visit me in Denmark, and something just really sparked. Now I just know. She’s coming to live with me in six months. If he didn’t play soccer: I’d be an actor. Probably more of a comedic actor, like Jim Carrey.
