Hot Lake Springs, Manuel Museum and Foundry

Hot Lake Springs, Manuel Museum and Foundry

I want to visit this place. My mother-in-law and father-in-law bought a bronze from David and Lee Manuel in the 1990's. IT's a masterpiece. David does fine work. The Manuels used to live in Joseph Oregon. We visited their museum and foundry more than once. They are a great family.
They have been restoring this old hotel for quite a few years. Going to their site will tell it all.
We hope to stay there in the near future.

Sounders FC's Steve Zakuani followed winding path to fulfill soccer dreams

A knee injury and bad attitude almost ended his promising career at age 15, but the midfielder has found success with Sounders FC.

Major League Soccer releases weekly news and notes NEW - 5/04, 09:42 AM

TUKWILA — The deep scars on Steve Zakuani's right knee and calf are a daily reminder. Of when he was deemed damaged goods. Of when he thought his soccer career was over. Of when his dreams were seemingly shattered. All at the age of 15.

Zakuani, a 22-year-old midfielder in his second season with Sounders FC, remembers the day seven years ago in London. Zakuani was mixing with the wrong crowd, and after a friend stole a Moped, Zakuani took turns riding it around the neighborhood next to their school.

When the fun was almost over, Zakuani wanted one more go-round.

"That last one is always the one that gets you," he says now.

Zakuani lost control of the bike and slammed into a parked car. He tried to walk away from the crash, but felt his knee buckle. Later at the hospital, Zakuani's father, Mao, asked the doctor when his son would be able to play soccer again.

"We're just trying to get him to walk again," the doctor told him.

Now, after overcoming years of rehab, self doubt, failed tryouts across Europe and a 4,000-mile journey to America, Zakuani is finally realizing his dreams as a professional. And whenever he pulls up his soccer socks before a game or practice, the scars remind him how he got here.

"The story is unbelievable," he said, with a heavy English accent. "And I'm excited to see where it's going to go."

From Africa to London

Zakuani's story began in Zaire (now the Democratic Republic of Congo), but his soccer story begins in England. Mao Zakuani moved his family from its African home for reasons political and professional. Mao doesn't like to elaborate on the politics; the professional piece was a job offer as a translator in London.

Steve Zakuani, just 4 years old, didn't know any of the neighborhood children or the language — his family spoke French and a couple Congolese vernaculars.

Foreign as he was, Zakuani's love of soccer quickly won him friends.

"When they noticed that he could play football very well, they respected him," said Mao Zakuani.

As Steve grew older, his skills caught the attention of professional scouts. As early as 9 years old, he earned interest from West Ham United. Later he tried out for the youth team of Queens Park Rangers.

In 1997, Zakuani signed with the prestigious Arsenal Academy, which at the time had arguably the best senior team in the world. For five years, he trained with and played against emerging stars around the world. Then on weekends he'd watch Gunners greats Thierry Henry and Freddie Ljungberg — now a Sounders FC teammate — in the English Premier League.

It was a proud time for the family.

Maybe too proud for Zakuani.

"My dad was mad at me for this, but I remember I used to wear my Arsenal track suit at school," Zakuani said. "When they saw my jacket, all the kids at school would know that I played for Arsenal."

Pride, however, turned to entitlement.

Cocky and brash, Zakuani didn't have to try out for his secondary-school soccer team or even care to do homework.

"I was like, 'Henry doesn't do his homework, so why should I do mine?' " Zakuani said.

Convinced he was destined to become a first-team player for Arsenal, the 14-year-old Zakuani was released by the team in 2002.

Rock bottom

After being dropped by his dream team, Zakuani's passion for the game had gone.

He eventually caught on with a lower-division club in England, Leyton Orient, but his heart wasn't in it.

"I was just going through the motions," he said.

Outside of soccer and school, Zakuani got involved with the wrong crowd. Girls and parties were a few of the many distractions in a time of teenage rebelliousness. Then came the Moped crash that injured his knee and foot so bad he'd wouldn't play again for 18 months.

Two surgeries on his knee weren't the worst of it. The crash had severed the nerves in his foot so badly he could only drag it, due to what doctors called "dead foot."

While riding the subway to rehab one day, Zakuani told his mother, Cecile, that he wanted to give up.

"I remember telling her, 'I'm going to just do school and get a 9-to-5,' " Zakuani said. "I just said, 'I'd had enough. I don't want to do this anymore. It's not worth it.'

"I didn't even complete my rehab. I was like, 'I'm done.' "

Thinking his soccer career was over, Zakuani took school more seriously. But his previous poor grades had already put him in danger of failing. He joined an after-school program for academically at-risk students, with teacher and mentor Paul Goodison.

When Goodison took Zakuani to watch motivational speaker and evangelist Myles Munroe, the light finally clicked on.

That night Zakuani vowed to turn his life around and get rid of the bad influences. Before he went to bed, alone in his bedroom, he recommitted himself to making it as a professional soccer player

The injury went from being an excuse to a blessing.

"I had to take the gift that God gave me away to realize I was human, and this thing is very fragile," Zakuani said. "Life is fragile."

Off to America

With his spirit renewed, Zakuani traveled across Europe to find a new team. He tried out with the senior teams of Queens Park Rangers and Wigan in England, then to AZ Alkamaar in Holland and Real Valladolid in Spain.

No luck.

He wasn't back to full speed, and some teams thought he'd never recover.

The University of Akron entered the picture by chance, when the Ohio program was scouting a friend and teammate at the small Independent Football Academy where Zakuani joined to train.

It didn't take long for Zakuani to catch the eye of Zips assistant coach Ryan Higginbotham, who thought he could be the best player in the country.

Skeptical of America and the NCAA, Zakuani didn't take the interest from Akron seriously at first. But unable to find a team in Europe, he eventually accepted the scholarship.

Embracing the new beginning and the free education, Zakuani was a revelation on the college soccer scene. He scored six goals his freshman season and later earned a professional offer that summer from Preston North End, a club in England.

Keeping his promise to Akron coach Caleb Porter, Zakuani came back for his sophomore season and led the nation in scoring with 20 goals. Porter said half of them were individual efforts of "40-, 50-yard runs and beating three or four guys along the way.

"Steve Zakuanis don't come around very often."

Zakuani became the first draft pick of the expansion franchise Sounders FC, which selected him with the No. 1 overall pick in the MLS SuperDraft in January 2009.

Two seasons later, the 6-foot midfielder is one of the team's most dangerous offensive weapons.

"If he hadn't had that injury he probably would've gone on a different path," Porter said. "Maybe he'd be in the EPL (English Premier League) right now. Because of the injury he took a fork in the road, but he's still gotten to where he's wanted to be and been able to realize his dreams."

Time to give back

Sounders FC teammates praise Zakuani's vibrant, fun-loving personality off the field, but also his potential on it.

"He needs to set his goals as high as possible because the sky is the limit," teammate Peter Vagenas said. "He has all the talent in the world."

And with that talent — Zakuani hopes to debut with the Congolese national team in the next year or so — comes the opportunity to give back.

This year he founded Kingdom Hope, a nonprofit that offers summer camps and a scholarship program to boys aged 16-18. The ultimate goal is open schools worldwide where young men can receive soccer training and mentoring, but he knows that might take a while.

If anyone has learned patience, however, it's Zakuani.

"I had a lot of people help me when I was down and low," he said, "and that's what I wanted to do in return, was along the way, help as many people as I can to realize their dreams, too.

John Mason speaks often of people who are meant to speak into our lives. There are also people who should not speak into our lives. Speaking positive things or speaking negative makes ALL THE DIFFERENCE. There's a quote: If you want to soar with eagles, you can't be hanging around turkeys. Whose quote is that? Help me!

If you haven't found inspiration yet, I know the place to get it. Oh, I'm referring to a web-site. But the #1 inspirational book is, of course, the BIBLE. That's the root. That's the beginning of inspiration. It's not obsolete or outdated for today.
In fact, 2 stories I got bread from today are:
Acts 10 The story of Nicodemus
John 4 The story of Jesus and the woman (Samaritan) at the well.
God caused Nicodemus to meet up with Simon Peter through an angel and the Holy Ghost, directing through his voice and guidance. It's better than any GPS or electronic device. Does your cell phone give you any direction? No, only distractions. God taught Peter to not view another person as common or unclean. Don't get hung up more in human reasoning over your faith in God.

Jesus made himself known to a woman that he shouldn't have been even talking to (to be politically correct). He put his finger on her dissatisfaction in life (her 5 marriages). She was seeking satisfaction in humans instead of God. Jesus made it known to her that she was talking to that ONE who was prophesied to come to the earth. Guess what I noticed this time? She didn't keep this excitement to herself. She went into the city and found men or people to share this good news with.

I have been learning about connecting with people. People have skepticism. People lack trust. People need hope, love, acceptance. All of us do.

But I noticed with Jesus, and this helps me see what I need to learn TO DO. Reach out! Someone is dissatisfied. Someone needs hope. We're all human. We have needs.

Oh, okay, thanks for reading down this far.
The web-site is www.brighart.com and under videos, there's all sorts of documents and videos and web-pages for inspiration. When we are down, we do have somewhere to go.

Positive IN Positive OUT!

Any person will gain more satisfaction in life when they stop trying to get what they want and focus on helping others to get what they want.

In five years from now, I will have a very fulfilling life. Smiles and laughter will fill the room. We will see new countries of the world and enjoy the beautiful sights. My husband will sleep in every day of the week with me and stay home if he feels like it. We will fly off to a tropical island and stand in awe of the water and hillsides. Cruising through the ocean water will relax us as we sip a delicious drink. We will drive a beautiful sleek sporty car down the streets of a village, and window shop.

Dream whatever you wish for. State it as fact. Believe it can happen. Visualize it. It's not too late to see what can be in your future. Speak it into existence. Life doesn't need to be monotonous. There's more to life than dirty laundry, dishes to do and vacuuming. Smile a little, laugh till your stomach and face hurts. Be happy! Don't let any thing anger you. Throw it over your shoulder. Be confident! Seek for peace with all those who you meet. Leave people better than you found them. Love others!

WAYMAN SMILES AND LIVES ON!

Who is Wayman Tisdale?
Well, he played all his life. What did he play? Basketball and Bass Guitar.

I loved his music. Simple as that. His recordings made me happy, as I listened to his CDs. I didn't watch him on the basketball court. But I did get to see him once in concert with Dave Koz, Jonathan Butler and Kimberly Locke for one of the Christmas Jazz concerts he performed in, in Tacoma, Washington.

He wore a huge smile. That was his signature. His happy persona.

He passed away May 2009. It was a sad day for many. He fought a battle with cancer. But those who love him had created this memorial web-site, so if you want to know more about a dear person, just check this out.

Think outside the box!

We are all guilty, as humans, of getting trapped in our little box, and we have a hard time letting go of how we were raised, what our culture was and even what our religion dictates to our every move in life.
Must we go through life in such a limited way of thinking? I like the saying "A parachute works best, when it is open." How can the parachute work, if you never open it up. Do you want it to save your life, when you get to earth?
Consider the fly trapped in a room. The fly desperately bangs against the window trying to get free. His struggle is vigorous but futile, and he eventually dies. Why? It seems that the fly simply looked around, he would have noticed that just across the room was an open door~~ within a few seconds of flying, he could have been free.
That's pretty close to the first analogy. Correct?

Many whiners behave like the fly. They try harder and harder with the wrong strategy. They find either an excuse to keep doing what they're doing or they find an excuse to QUIT!

Here's a great question:
Which is more important: the power of belief or the power of persistence?

Keith Cameron Smith shares in his book, THE TOP 10 DISTINCTIONS BETWEEN WINNERS AND WHINERS:
How would you answer that question? Well, would your response be that belief is more important than persistence? Belief creates persistence. It can be a challenging thing to persevere, especially when we 're faced with failure, rejection or loss, but belief gives us the confidence we need to persist in the face of those unexpected barriers.
Henry Ford once said, "If you think you can or you think you can't, you're right!" It's a deeper truth than most people realize.
WHINERS continue to find excuses for two reasons. First, because things get tough. Second, because they don't believe they can prevail.

Find a way and believe there is a way! Whiners find an excuse because they don't believe they can succeed.
