US Open Tennis 2009 Serena Williams foot fault

2009-09-13T09:22:00.000-07:00

"If I could, I would take this ... ball and shove it down your ... throat," Williams said.

She continued yelling at the line judge, and went back over, shaking her racket in the official's direction.

Asked in her postmatch news conference what she said to the line judge, Williams wouldn't say, replying, "What did I say? You didn't hear?"

"I've never been in a fight in my whole life, so I don't know why she would have felt threatened," Williams said with a smile. Instead of stepping to the baseline to serve again, Williams went over and shouted and cursed at the line judge, pointing at her and thrusting the ball toward her.

The match featured plenty of powerful groundstrokes and lengthy exchanges. No one will remember a single shot that was struck, though, because of the unusual, dramatic way it ended.

With Williams serving at 5-6, 15-30 in the second set, she faulted on her first serve. On the second serve, a line judge called a foot fault, making it a double-fault — a call rarely, if ever, seen at that stage of any match, let alone the semifinals of a Grand Slam tournament.

That made the score 15-40, putting Clijsters one point from victory.

NEW YORK – Serena Williams walked toward the line judge, screaming, cursing and shaking a ball in the official's direction, threatening to "shove it down" her throat.

Beijing is filled with commerce and at last count, their athletes are doing very well in the medals arena.The flow of Chi energy was evident in all aspects of the ceremony. When there was active or aggressive movement it would be balanced by stillness or slow undulating motions in following performances.
The number 8 is considered a very lucky number and is associated with great fortune. In this case, the good fortune energy will serve well for both the host country of the games and for their athletes winning medals. It appears to be serving both well.
The beautiful Five Olympic Rings delicately covered with what appeared to be millions of tiny white lights, slowly rose up from the floor, stood vertically and then floated upward against a backdrop of a total darkness in the stadium.
It was more fascinating however to observe the use of Yin and Yang for balance and harmony while creating drama and holding the audience's interest. The loud intensity of the drummers was balanced with the silent dancelike movements of the Tai Chi performers.

Shaq for Suns

2008-02-07T20:37:00.000-08:00

Shaquille O'Neal will move to Phoenix Suns recently. Ultimately, that was the debate that raged within the Suns for several days: What does Shaq have left with his 36th birthday approaching, with a body that is forever betraying him? As Kerr watched days worth of tape on O’Neal, there were Suns officials fearful that he was unsold on committing to 2½ years of the $50 million still owed him. Suns were taking on a contract that pays O'Neal $20 million each of the next two seasons. With Shaq, it’s one thing to tell everyone what they want to hear – that he’s determined to win his fifth title, that he’s angry over the public sentiment that this trade will be a bust. In the past, his rage could summon monumental performances. No more. He has to stay in shape. He has to work. Often, Pat Riley doubted his commitment. If nothing else, the arrival of Shaquille O’Neal ends all that in the locker room. The Suns need him to be a productive player, but Nash is dying for Shaq to burden a share of the leadership.

After the 1995–96 season, O'Neal left the Orlando Magic to join the Los Angeles Lakers, enticed by the allure of a seven-year, $122 million contract. O'Neal joined a young Laker squad that had recently returned to the playoffs, but of which little was expected. O'Neal was also voted the 1999–2000 regular season Most Valuable Player.

Shaquille Rashaun O’Neal born March 6, 1972), frequently referred to simply as "Shaq", is an American professional basketball player, regarded as one of the most dominant in the history of the National Basketball Association (NBA). O'Neal fir s t g a i n e d n a t ional attention as a star at Robert G. Cole Junior-Senior High School in San Antonio, Texas. He led his high school team to a 68-1 record during his two years there and helped the team win the state title his senior year. After graduating from high school, O'Neal attended Louisiana State University, where he was a member of Omega Psi Phi and studied business. O'Neal married Shaunie Nelson on December 26, 2002. The couple have four children (Shareef, Amirah, Shaqir, and Me'arah, ages ranging from 6 to 1, in order), and Nelson has one child from a previous relationship (Myles, 8). O'Neal also has a daughter from a previous relationship (Taahirah, 9), making him the father of six. with a specific faith though in 2002, the Los Angeles Times identified O'Neal as being Muslim.

Is it ok for woman to do body building?

2008-01-21T11:13:00.000-08:00

Women can use gym equipment. It was not true that go to gym can make a woman muscle became built. To be 'body building' big is by the amount of weight used, amount of time used on the equipment. It is acceptable for women to use gym equipment. Just keep the weights pretty light -- not too light that they don't challenge you, but definitely not too heavy either -- and go for higher numbers of reps per set.

When you're resting after one set of a given weight exercise (call it Exercise A), don't just stand around waiting until you're ready to do the next set of Exercise A. Go and do a set of another exercise (Exercise B) instead. For instance, after a set of an upper-body exercise (lat pull-downs, rows, whatever), go do a weight-body or abs exercise. Then go back to the upper-body one you were doing and do your second set. Then go back to the lower-body or abs exercise. You can even have three exercises going at once -- for instance, an arm or shoulder exercise, an abs or core exercise, and body exercise. Doing your cardio after your weights is great for toning up, it can burning your fat, and keep your body weight down.

Weight training should be a staple of any woman's workout regimen. It can make woman stay shape. It helps burn fat for hours after exercising (unlike cardio which tends to burn fat only during the activity) and the additional lean muscle not only looks great (that's the "toning" that women always talk about), but it also has additional fat-burning benefits. Researchers have found that doing weights boosts your metabolism and kick-starts your body's weight-loss and fat-burning mode, which makes the time after doing weights a prime time for cardio exercise. When the Department of Health published the "physical activity action plan" for the nation last year, it said that if you are to avert the oft-foretold "health time bomb" you urgently need to get up off the couch and get ourselves fit. Only 37% of men and 24% of women, it said, are sufficiently active to gain any health benefit. Furthermore, 30% of boys and 40% of girls aged two to 15 do not meet the recommended levels of physical activity of 60 minutes of "moderate-intensity physical activity" each day. For adults, the chief medical officer recommends a total of at least 30 minutes a day of moderate-intensity physical activity on five or more days of the week. That means nothing to be afraid for woman to do body building.

Schummy retired and became a taxi driver

2007-12-11T22:04:00.000-08:00

Michael Schumacher became the most famous taxi driver in Germany, after the seven-times world champion shocked a cab driver by taking over the wheel himself in order to be on time for a flight. Schumacher, 38, flew into the aerodrome at the Bavarian town of Coburg on Saturday and took a taxi to the village of Gehuelz, 30 kilometres away, to pick up a new puppy - an Australian Shepherd dog called "Ed".
But when the former Formula One ace, with his wife and two children, caught a taxi back to the airport they were short on time and, after a polite request, cab driver Tuncer Yilmaz watched in wonder as Schumacher took the wheel."I found myself in the passenger seat, which was strange enough, but to have "Schumi" behind the wheel of my cab was incredible," Mr Yilmaz told the Muenchner Abendzeitung. "He drove at full throttle around the corners and over-took in some unbelievable places."
Mr Yilmaz was well rewarded for the unusual journey - on top of the 60 euros (88 US dollars) fare, he was also given a 100 euros (146 US dollars) tip. Schumacher's spokesperson Sabine Kehm later confirmed. story from yahoonews.

Hingis with Cocaine

2007-11-04T02:13:00.001-08:00

Martina Hingis former WTA star just gaining more famous celebrities, beats up David Beckham and Totti, when she tests positive for cocaine. I have tested positive but I have never taken drugs and I feel 100 percent innocent," the five-times grand slam champion from Switzerland told a news conference. Fighting back tears and with her voice cracking, Hingis read from a written statement before leaving the room without answering questions. In an expanded version of the statement later released by her management, the 27-year-old said she found the accusation of drug-taking "so horrendous, so monstrous, that I have decided to confront it head-on by talking to the press."
Martina Hingis, born at 30, 1980 in Košice, Slovakia is a former tennis player and World No. 1. Known as the "Swiss Miss", she won five Grand Slam singles titles (three Australian Open, one Wimbledon, and one US Open) before her retirement on November 1, 2007.

brazil 2014 world cup host

2007-10-31T02:47:00.000-07:00

who is the candidate for the 2014 world cup? is it France, England, or Germany? Not one of them. The answer is Brazil, the only candidate for 2014 world cup host. from the date provided by kotabuku.com soccer book english edition, we know that in fact Brazil has a lot of sport stars like Ronaldo and Kaka. As it's the most famoust sport in that country, soccer became one of the brazilian citizen's hearth.

In Brazil, 50 mountain climbers hung an enormous national team jersey bearing the slogan "The 2014 World Cup is Ours" from majestic Sugar Loaf mountain in Rio de Janeiro. At the famed Maracana Stadium, workers spread flags across the field reading, "Maracana is ours and so is the 2014 World Cup."

Blatter said the lack of competition from other South American nations was one reason behind FIFA's decision Monday to do away with the rotation system that gave each continent a turn at hosting the World Cup. The decision takes effect with the 2018 tournament.
"We are a civilized nation, a nation that is going through an excellent phase, and we have got everything prepared to receive adequately the honor to organize an excellent World Cup," Brazilian Football Confederation president Ricardo Teixeira said.
Brazilian Sports Minister Orlando Silva, national team coach Dunga, veteran striker Romario and renowned author Paulo Coelho were among those making the trip to Zurich.
"Of course, dreams demand hard work and we Brazilians are ready to face this task," Coelho said. "All the countries in the world have two teams -- the national squad and the Brazilian squad."

Brazil hosted the World Cup once before, 57 years ago. Since launching its bid for 2014, Brazil has emphasized why the country needs the World Cup, much more than what it has to offer the tournament. (from yahoo news)

beckham in MLS

2007-10-25T03:28:00.000-07:00

BRIDGEVIEW, Ill. – David Beckham's first Major League Soccer season began with a blast of confetti, a series of speeches and irrepressible optimism amid a jostling scrum of international media on a sunny morning last July.

Season No. 1 ended on a windswept afternoon at Toyota Park on Sunday with a gnawing sense of what might have been for Beckham and the Los Angeles Galaxy. They now have a long offseason to reflect on what happened after failing to make the playoffs in a 1-0 loss to the Chicago Fire.

It's also time to analyze Beckham's impact since coming to MLS. The whirlwind period of his life saddled him with countless obstacles of a personal and professional nature, and it left him with an unforgettable experience as well as a sense of frustration.

"If David writes an autobiography at the end of his career, then this year will need to be a pretty big chapter," Galaxy president Alexi Lalas said. (news from yahoo sport)
