Uzbekistan

I think that this woman should be able to publish her work. If she finds this stuff interesting why not let her show it to the world. It might help out people in this world. It can make us more grateful for what we have. People might respect their stuff more and realize that they are lucky for what they have.
I think that people will see these pictures as inspiration. It will push them to want to help others who have less than them. Also people will see how people who have less are still grateful for everything that they have. Especially when they get something new they appreciate it a lot more than us.
People will know that their homeland is still beautiful even though these pictures are not of their landscape. Because every place in the world has places where people live like this. But that doesn’t make the place or homeland not beautiful.
I like the part where they say “The authorities want to shoe a rosy-cheeked face, a beautiful face, as if the wise rulers rule so well that nothing will ever happen.” I think this makes it seem like the artist really cares about her work and wants it to get out there.

Loo

I think that this is a very interesting story. She went through so much to get to her dream. I am amazed of her courage and the abilty to push through hard times. She never gave up and in the end made it all happen. Her dream came true.

She deserved to be in the Olympics. By all of the hard work she went through. I find it amazing that even after her knee injury she didn't stop. She pushed through the pain and made it to the next Olympics. She even had bad financing but made a way to make her dreams come true.

She is a true leader to everyone. She shows that we should never give up. And if we don't we will make our dreams come true. She has probably helped so many people follow their dreams. She makes me want to work harder in soccer to make my dreams come true. She has gone through so much to make it to where she’s now and its amazing to me. She is a great example to everyone. She makes people believe that they can make it.

This guy should go to jail. It is not fair that he gets away with doing somethign like this. It is not right to have him walking around free on the street. He might even do it again. That should not be a loud.

How to get on a traveling soccer team

   If you want to get on a traveling soccer team. There are many thing you need to do. But you need to be commited. Because you will have to work hard.

  First, you need to have a goal in mind. For example, you want to know if you want to be on the top team or a lower team. Once you decide that you need go outside and work one your foot skills. you also need to be able to defend.

  Second, you need to be able to run atleast 3 miles in a row. So if you can not do that then you need to go out and run. Also you need to be able to sprint far and mutiple times in a row.

  Third, you have try outs. You go there and they are usually arou 2 to 3 hours. Some are even to days in a row. After those you wait for a call from the coachs. They will tell you what team you have made. By then they will have all the teama planed out.

Last off, you start practicing and have games. Then you have it year around and have to try out again. You will go through the process again. But you will have a better chance to make the team the second time. Because the coachs know you better and know what you can do. So make sure you try your hardest durning the year so that your coach will want you on his team next year.

Is Blogging Journalism?

In my opinion blogging is journalism. When you blog you are writing about news and your opinion on things. On blogs you give your opinion on stuff and that is considered journalism. People think that journalism is just news. But I think that journalism is just when you tell your opinion.

Journalism is when people write down what is around them or there opinion. That is what blogging is. Most people like reading about what people think. It makes them think more about the topic and what they think abou it.
