In the spotlight on this TV minute is Lance Armstrong, “the Golden Boy of Cycling.”
Lance Armstrong was born on September 18, 1971, in a small Texas town. From early on, it was clear that he
was a natural athlete. In 1984, at age 13, Lance won a national triathlon, excelling at running, swimming, and
bicycling. By 1987, while he was still in high school, Lance had turned professional. He decided to focus
exclusively on bicycling, saying. “I was born to race bikes”
Between 1988 and 1996, Armstrong won numerous international races. In January 1996 he was the top-ranked
cyclist in the world. Then during a race in October of that year, Armstrong fell of his bike in excruciating pain.
They discovered that he had cancer, which had spread to his lugs and brain. Given only a 50 percent chance of
surviving, in 1997 Armstrong underwent difficult cancer treatment. Amazingly, he not only survived, he returned
to competition, winning several major races in 1998.
Since that time, Armstrong has gone on win many more races, including the Tour de France in 1999, 2000, and
2001. Lance says that cancer was an unexpected gift. "I used to ride my bike to make a living. Now I just want to
live so that I can ride."

Thank you for contacting Health Web. Please click on the type of advice you need . . . Thank you, you have

ligaments around the ankle. We suggest the following treatment.

OK, let’s get started. I want to share my coaching philosophy with you. There are 4 main principles, which I try to
install in my players from the first day of training camp.
The first principle is commitment. I tell my players: You must be committed to excellence, committed to
constant improvement, committed to doing your bet in all circumstances. So, commitment is the first thing.
The second principle is determination. By this, I mean having a strong sense of purpose. You have to be
determined not to let failure discourage you. You have to be willing to get back up each time you fall. That’s
what determination is.
The third principle is teamwork. I tell my players that there’s no “I” in the word team. We are not interested in
individual achievements. We’re working for the combined efforts of each individual; we’re contributing to the
mutual goals of the team. That’s teamwork.
Now the fourth principle is attitude, and not just any attitude, but a winning attitude. A winning attitude is the
fire in your belly, the will to win, the passion to do whatever it takes to come out on top. And when I teach my
players about this winning attitude. I tell them a very important 3-letter word, and this word is yet. You see,
losers say, “I can’t do it.” Winners say, “I can’t do it yet.” I want my players to feel that everything is possible
with time. This is what I consider the most important part of a winning attitude.

Halloween Fun by Makoto Nakazawa

Halloween is one of the most famous holidays in the U.S., and it is on October 31. People carve pumpkins and make
funny faces on them. These are called "Jack-O-Lanterns." On October 31, children wear a special costume such as a
witch, ghost, or clown. They go to many houses and they knock on the door saying, "Trick or Treat!" It means that if
people don't give them a treat, they will play some kind of trick on the household. So, usually people give candy to them.

I carved my first Halloween pumpkin at my Friendship Family's house. First, I cut open the top of the pumpkin and pulled
the seeds out. It was not good for me because it was sticky and smelled bad. I had never carved a pumpkin, so it was
interesting for me. Next, I carved the eyes and the mouth. I wanted to make a face like a pirate. When I finished making
the face, I put a candle inside. It was very beautiful, so I was happy.

I had a good experience because I learned one new idea about American culture

Halloween is an American holiday that …involves parents, children and people around your house.

The Hours That Count in My Life by Essa Al-Dhaheri

Time is very important in our lives. It organizes our everyday moments. However, time never had any importance in my
life until I received a watch from my father that organized my life and made me more responsible.
It came from Denmark to the U.A.E. jewelry shop in a gray box. It weighs 8 oz. It's round in the center with two silver
bands that go around my wrist. And all of it is made of silver. This object tells me the importance of time in my life.
I received this gift on a gray-sky day. I had to go to the airport at 9:00 AM to pick up my Uncle Ali and take him to my
father's house. However, I was late because I was hanging out with my friends. Later on that day, around 11:00 AM, I
remembered my uncle, but I was very late for him. He had left the airport and taken a taxi to my father's house.

I got to my father's house at 2:00 PM on the same day and looked at my angry father's face. I felt ashamed of myself at
that moment. After I said hi to my angry father and tired uncle, my father asked me to sit next to him where he handed
me this watch which was a gift from him. Then he said, "Essa did you have fun with your friends today?" I answered,
"Yes father, and I'm sorry about not picking up my Uncle Ali." He said, "What you did was not very nice and you should
be sorry for your actions." I was ashamed and said, "Father I'll never do it again. I promise." He said, "I hope today you
learned something important, and this watch will be a reminder for you." He told me to take this watch and use it as an
organizer of my life.
I learned a very important lesson from my father: to respect time and never be late to get someone. This watch is
important to me, not because of its price, but because of the lesson that I learned from it.

How Identity Thieves Succeed

Every year, thieves steal personal information from millions of people. How do they get this information? They have
many methods. Often, they steal wallets and purses containing identification and credit and bank cards. They also steal
mail by completing a "change of address form" to divert someone's mail to another location. By doing this, they can get
bank and credit card statements, pre-approved credit offers, telephone calling cards, and tax information. Another way
thieves get personal information is to search through someone's trash, or the trash of businesses, in a practice known as
"dumpster diving." They may even enter someone's home to get information.

Many times, though, thieves don't have to be near a person or a person's home to obtain personal information. They
can falsely obtain someone's credit report by posing as a landlord, employer or someone else who may have a legitimate
need for -- and a legal right to -- the information. They can steal someone's business or personnel records from that
person's workplace, or they can use personal information someone shares on the Internet. They can even buy
someone's personal information from "inside sources." For example, an identity thief may pay a store employee for
information about someone that appears on an application for goods, services, or credit.

According to the article inside sources are be information from: personal information
Which of the following is NOT personal information that thieves steal? inside sources
When a thief is "dumpster diving," where is the thief getting information? from the trash
According to the article, who has a legal right to read someone's credit report? an employer
How can a thief get information about you from an application? He buys it from a store employee.
