Speed
Hockey
Speed Hockey is a complex and fun game that everyone will
enjoy, watching OR playing. To play the sport you need to know how to skate
pretty well, and the rules are straight forward
but the sport is hard unless you know how to speed skate and know how to
hold a hockey stick. It’s not as easy as it sounds here are the ways to play:
·
You start on the right of the ring and it starts just
when the referee drops the puck and shoots the gun and their off.
·
The players all want that puck so they can cross the
finish line with the puck so they can win for their team.
·
There is no body checking no high sticking and no
tripping
·
The players all fight for the puck.
·
And you half to go through 2 laps before winning the
game.
·
And the last and final rule is never be a sore
loser.
And that concludes are little
lesson on how to play speed hockey.

Alpine Ski - by Martin and Dylan
Ski lengths usually range from a minimum of 165cm for slalom to only a minimum of 220cm for men's downhill. The decision to increase the minimum length of giant slalom skis by 10cm in 2012 led to heavy criticism from racers, in particular Ted Ligety, who went on to win the overall World Cup title. 10 alpine skiing events have been held at the Winter Olympics since 1988. They are downhill, slalom, giant slalom, Super G and Super Combined, each with a men's and women's category. In men’s downhill Austria’s Matthias Mayer got gold medal, Italy’s Christof Innerhofer got silver medal,Norway’s Kjetil Jansrud got bronze medal. In Men's Super Combined Slalom,Switzerland’s Sandro Viletta got gold medal. Croatia’s Ivica Kostelic got silver medal. Christof Innerhofer got another medal, a bronze this time. They all had stunning performances. Norway’s Kjetil Jansrud got gold medal, America’s Andrew Weibrecht got silver medal. And two bronze metals were given, one was to a Canadian named Jan Hudec. And another metal went to an American named Bode Miller.
Justyna Kowalczyk
Justyna Kowalczyk won gold on Feb. 13th with the time of 28:17.8. This was her second course out of three over eight days. This was also the only gold placing over the three courses. Justyna Kowalczyk is a Polish skier who has been competing internationally since 2000. Her career as a skier has not been an easy one; this polish 31 year old was born on Jan. 23, 1983 and started skiing at age ten. She is the only Polish athlete to win a medal. Her country must be proud! Her first major medal was the sprint at the 2003 junior world championships. Then, she participated in the 2005 World Championships but was then disqualified for taking a substance called dexamethasone at an earlier competition. But she argued that she had taken it for an Achilles tendon condition, not to enhance performance. She was then banned from the competitions for two years, then reduced to one year, then ended on Dec. 8, 2005. Three weeks after returning to the events, Kowalczyk won her first World Cup medal, a bronze in the 10-kilo. race at Otepaeae, Estonia. She then won the 30 kilo. bronze in 2006, and in 2010, Kowalczyk won a gold, silver and bronze right here in Vancouver. Being the only polish skier to win the world cup seems like a lot, right? But no, she didn’t stop at one; she won three from 2009 to 2011. By the end of 2013, Justyna had earned 29 world cup victories and 62 podiums in 185 individual world cup starts since 2001. In Davos, Switzerland, she finished only 25th and 11th in her 2 events and then got another world cup gold in Asiago, Italy in the sprint. In conclusion, Justyna Kowalczyk is a very successful athlete.

Sochi 2014 2-Man Bobsledding
Hello this is Isaiah and Jared and Joel here and we are going to talk about the Sochi 2014 Olympic game bobsleigh event. First, it is the Jamaican bobsled team. For the Jamaican bobsled team it has been rough. First the luggage did not come so they missed a whole day of practicing. Then, their protein powder got all over their shirts because the customs failed to close it when they were looking through it. So one of the guys had to run with protein in his eyes.
The first bobsled team were in the movie “Cool Running's” where it was the story about how they tried to make the running team but one tripped and they all fell down. So they waited two years and tried out for the bobsled in the Olympics.
Now a glimpse into the rest of the world.
In the 2 man bobsleigh for run 1 Russia got a time of 56.25 and is 1st place for now. Going 2nd was Switzerland with incredible speed got a score of 56.46. Going 3rd is the USA and Steven Holcomb drives U.S to first two man Olympic bobsled since 1952 with a good time of 56.34.
In run 2 the Russian federation got a score of 56.57. The Jamaican team qualified in the first round and got a score of 58.42 in run 1 and in run 2 they got a score of 58.81. Also in run 2 the Canadian team with Kripps and Barnett got a score of 56.70. Also Australia got a pretty good score for a country that is not very cold and got a time of 57.99. Italy got the bobsled score of 57.02. In run 3 Korea got a score of 57.73. The Russian federation got a score of 56.08 and that was one of the best scores. Also the Canadian team Kripps and Barnett got a score of 56.42. After the 3rd round only the top 20 made it and the 20th place was France with a score of 57.65. In the last round 4 the Russian federation got a good score of 56.49. Korea Won and Seo got a score of 57.08. And Canadian team Kripps and Barnett got a score of 56.94.
And here are some the final rankings:
1st Russia 3:45.39 gold
2nd Switzerland 3:46.05 silver
3rd USA 3:46.27 bronze
4th Russia 3:46 .30
5th Latvia 3:46.48
6th Canada 3:46.62 That is all folks. This is Isaiah Jared and Joel reporting

Our "Yesterday"
Yesterday I woke up
Today I didn't, I lay in the
warm silence awaiting my future,
I am not myself,not like I
was yesterday,
Yesterday I was surrounded by
friendship and love,
Today I am alone, solemnly on
a journey to an unknown world,
Yesterday the door closed,
and I opened a new one,
Yesterday I didn't know what
was coming,
But that was yesterday.
Yesterday, life felt so
simple.
The glistening image of
ourselves in the mirror meant nothing more than a way to tell us apart.
Living each day in the
present, not thinking about tomorrow, or what comes after.
Waking up and questioning the
day, not the week, not the month, not the future...
Not bothering to think about
why, only doing as you pleased.
No unanswered questions of
the world, as adults held all the answers, knowing what to do every second of
every day.
Seeds planted into our heads
about life, and what comes after.
Being taught by the corrupt
and greedy, not willing to change their point of view from that of the public
eye.
The world was a smaller
place, revolving around us because we lived life.
We had no actual view of
life, and we couldn't have cared less because if we thought about the past or
future, it would distract from today.
But today's not today
anymore, it's yesterday.
Life isn't simple.
We aren't the innocent child
that believed the world was peaceful and joyous, gradually morphing into people
who realize life isn't perfect, who look back on their childhood and know;
Yesterday is gone, and it's
never coming back.
Yesterday I walked to school, the freezing winds,
Frosty against my cotton pants.
Yesterday I worked on my iceberg project,
Drawing, typing, printer running.
Yesterday my aunty perished, then tears rolling
Down my mother's cheeks -- all because of one
Simple phone call.
Yesterday I charged my iPod, looking at the
Computer screen. Gazing out at the sun beating
Down on the pavement, it slowly falling as
Nighttime approached.

Yesterday I slept in
Yesterday I woke up at 10:00
Yesterday I saw a movie
Yesterday I felt like I was
going to die of school
Yesterday I had so much fun
Yesterday I could have fun
waking up
Yesterday I could play hockey
for winning and losing
Yesterday I felt nothing was
a worry
Yesterday I felt like
everything was so easy
Yesterday I rode my bike for
the first time
Yesterday I help someone ride
their bike for the first time
Today life is a hard
There’s HOMEWORK and PROJECTS
Today is an old boring Monday
And then tomorrow is a
Tuesday.
Yesterday was fun, like
laughing and cheers.
Yesterday was full of
excitement.
Yesterday was amazing and
magical and anything could happen.
Yesterday there was no such
thing as popularity, everyone was surrounded by friends.
Big, small, tall, short,
everyone was happy.
Yesterday I was friends with
everyone and there were no such things as rivalry or dislike.
Now, today, I’m not so sure.
Today, friends have moved
away, friends have found new friends, and there is rivalry and dislike.
Today is still full of
adventure, but it’s also full of sorrow.
Today is loss and tomorrow is
gain.
An endless circle of life and
death.
Tomorrow I could find love.
Tomorrow I could find hate.
Tomorrow, today, yesterday,
what do they all mean?
It doesn’t matter now, for it
is only today.
Forget the past, don’t worry
for the future, and just live today, full of love, hatred and death.
But how can I forget?
Thousands of worries,
thousands of regrets.
Is this really what life is
about?
Stress and conflict?
Am I really just waiting for
the day when I can’t take it anymore?
Maybe it will be tomorrow.
Yesterday I was a little kid
I wanted nothing to do with
broccoli
I still hate broccoli
Yesterday l loved
strawberries
I still love strawberries
Yesterday I wanted to be a
rock star
Now I say “god no”
Yesterday I loved SpongeBob
Everybody still loves
SpongeBob, deep down you know it, no matter how bloody annoying he is, you
still love it.
Yesterday I enjoyed
teletubbies
Now I say what in the world
are those things
Yesterday I loved pokemon
Nobody ever gets tired of
pokemon, everybody has that urge, “I’m am going to buy a 300 dollar Ds and a 60
dollar pokemon game and play that stupid thing”.
I like to think that
yesterday I was a nice kid
I was not…
Yesterday I was in preschool
Yesterday I loved playmobil.
The sets that take 10 seconds
to build.
Yesterday I went to sleep at
6:00 and woke up at 12:00 at night Calling for mommy because I had
A bad dream.
Yesterday I was scared of the
Zamboni driver because I thought he was mean and he would run over me.
Yesterday I was scared of spiders
The kings of the eight legged
creepy crawly’s
Yesterday I loved pokemon
The game where I CHOOSE YOU!
Today I am in sixth grade
with my best friends
Today instead of playmobil I
like lego.
Today I go to bed at 8:30
(weekends-9:30) and wake up at 7:15 (Weekends-9:00-10:00)
Today I am scared of drunk
people because they go crazy and grab you And swear up a storm.
The game I love now is either
call of duty or NHL 14. My life has changed a lot.
Yesterday I was a
kindergartener
Yesterday I loved the smell
of veggies the sweet smell of carrots.
Yesterday I loved playmobil
It brought out my creativity.
Yesterday I fell asleep at
5.30pm when I was hyper and woke up at 6.00 and felt drowsy
Yesterday I did not care
about money because I did not know what was coming up in my life
Yesterday I had a fear of
spiders because every time I looked at spiders I think it would hurt me
Yesterday I had fear in my
life of the upcoming things in life.
Today I’m a sixth grader with
my good friends
My love of veggies became a
hatred of them
Instead of playmobil I’m
insanely crazy for kidrobot and also a collector
Today I go to sleep at 9.00
pm and wake up at 5.30 am
Now I really care about money
because it can decide if I get a job or not
Today I’m not afraid of the
pesky spiders because I figured out that spiders are just friendly
Today I’m very confident of
life.
My life has changed a lot.
Yesterday I punched my friend in the arm
And she shouted out in pain.
Yesterday I had my FSA exam,
I went back home and ate some cake.
After my cake I went to Brendan's house and did some homework.
Yesterday I played some NBA on xbox 360,
After that I went to soccer, I came home and watched the Oilers vs the
Canucks and the Oilers won 4-2. It felt awesome.
Yesterday after the hockey game I had a
Shower and then watched some TV.
After watching some TV I went to bed.
Yesterday the wait at the clinic was short,
I watched an old man with a turban and 3 fingers taped together.
I heard languages I couldn't understand.
Yesterday I grew up fast.
I watched candles on a chocolate cake and watched my self blow them out
And the wax dripping down the colourful candles.
After I watched my mom slice the cake for me to eat.
It was so good
It tasted like being a teenager.

Yesterday I was a toddler
Didn’t think of money
And how much thing were
I always wanted toys
No matter how expensive they
were
I would stay close to my
parent
I wouldn’t try different food
Like broccoli, brussel
sprouts and olives
I would want to eat candy all
day
And I didn’t care how
unhealthy thing were
And fight with my sister
I would pull, punch, argue
and bite
But at night I would sneak
into her bed
And hug her and she would hug
me back
But today changed
I’m taller and stronger
I care about money
And the price of the object
I don’t want many toys
And my sister and I are buddies
Try different food but
although I was pikey
I would care about my health
And what I eat
So that my yesterday and
today
But I can’t wait for tomorrow
Yesterday I never thought
about my future, never looking ahead to school.
Never thinking about anything
but fun.
Friends and girls were the
people I liked, most boys were people I didn’t.
I knew what foods were good
and which were bad.
I thought that the morning
was just more time to play.
Yesterday, money was worth
nothing.
I didn’t have a care in the
world.
Yesterday, all of my friends
were right in front of me.
Today, I worry constantly
about what I want to be.
Now thinking about homework
and TV.
Today boys and girls can call
themselves my friends. I think about how I look, and worry about my friends.
Popularity matters.
Today I ate a fruit that was
a dragon.
Today people have new
meanings.
Today friends have gone and
left my world.
Today, a million worries rest
on my shoulders.
Today sleeping in means so
much more.

Yesterday I could wake up not caring about
anything
I knew what I didn’t like and hardly tried any
new stuff
I felt so free but, that was yesterday
Today is completely different
I care about a lot of
different things
Like my appearance, and
clothes
Unlike yesterday, when
anything that didn’t smell bad was good enough for me
Today I know who my friends
are
And who absolutely despises
me
I have many worries
And lots of doubts
I get scared quite easily
And don’t enjoy dark
basements
I try new stuff which I often
enjoy
I am slowly growing up and
life is getting harder
I sometimes wish that I could
go back to yesterday
