Morning Ignition Compliance, Policies & Procedures
The mission of The Morning Ignition Program is simple and concise: Our aim is to attract superior professionals and talent from around the globe that constantly increases the overall value of our organization. As our value increases, so does the opportunity and the attraction for others. Great people have a compounding effect on our strength as a whole.
The goal of The Morning Ignition Program is to become the most sought after and respected resource for balanced living, wellness, training, products, software, coaching, and financial opportunity in the network marketing industry. Our corporate leadership team is continually working to provide the best experience for our members and associates, including outstanding customer service and support. With The Morning Ignition Program we want every person to achieve the results they desire in their life and to reach their goals in the shortest timeframe possible.
All Independent Associates and Members of The Morning Ignition Program agree to abide by the following Independent Associate Code of Conduct.
I will be honest and fair in my dealings
I will perform my business in a manner that will enhance my reputation and the positive reputation established by the direct sales and network marketing industry
I will be courteous and respectful of every person I contact in the course of my Independent Associate activities including executives and employees of The Morning Ignition Program. I agree to not post negative videos, blog posts, status updates, comments or reviews about the The Morning Ignition Program community, company, opportunity, or our independent affiliates; as doing so may result in termination of my account.
I will fulfill my leadership responsibilities as a sponsor including training, supporting and communicating with the Independent associates on my team and in my organization.
I will not misrepresent any Morning Ignition Program products, services, training, or the Compensation Plan. I will not make false income claims or earnings statements.
I will not sponsor or attempt to sponsor any Morning Ignition Program Associate directly or indirectly into any other network marketing program or engage in deceptive or illegal practices. I will not promote other business opportunities or MLMs in the Morning Ignition Program groups, forums, public pages or profiles (otherwise known as cross-recruiting or spam solicitation).
I will remember that even my personal experiences and the benefits received from The Morning Ignition Program products, services or programs, may be interpreted as unauthorized extension of labeling claims. I will remember that certain U.S. FTC regulations and good ethics of the Direct Sales Association do not allow exagerated or false income earnings or guarantees; nor do these regulations allow me to promote a marketing system.
I understand and agree that I am solely responsible for all financial and/or legal obligations I incur in the course of my business as an Independent Associate and will discharge all debts and duties as required of an Associate. All earnings from the The Morning Ignition Program should be reported to local and federal goverments as earned income for tax purposes.
These Policies and Procedures, in their present form and as amended at the sole discretion of The Morning Ignition Program (hereafter the Company), are incorporated into, and form an integral part of, the The Morning Ignition Program Independent Associate Agreement (the IA Agreement). Throughout these Policies, when the term Agreement is used, it collectively refers to the Independent Associate Application and Customer Agreement, these Policies and Procedures, The Morning Ignition Program and Compensation Plan, and The Morning Ignition Program Business Entity Registration Form (if applicable). These documents are incorporated by reference into the Associate Agreement (all in their current form and as amended by The Morning Ignition Program). It is the responsibility of each Associate to read, understand, adhere to, and ensure that he or she is aware of and operating under the most current version of these Policies and Procedures. When sponsoring or enrolling a new Associate, it is the responsibility of the sponsoring Associate to provide the most current version of these Policies and Procedures and The Morning Ignition Program Marketing and Compensation Plan to the applicant prior to his or her execution of the Associate Agreement.
The Morning Ignition Programis a personal development and affiliate marketing company that markets educational and high-value informational products, software, consulting, coaching, and services through independent Associates. It is important to understand that your success and the success of your fellow Associates are dependent upon the integrity of the men and women who market our products and services. To clearly define the relationship that exists between Associates and The Morning Ignition Program, and to explicitly set a standard for acceptable business conduct, The Morning Ignition Program has established the Agreement. The Morning Ignition Program Associates are required to comply with all of the Terms and Conditions set forth in the Agreement, as well as all federal, state, provincial, territorial, and local laws governing their Morning Ignition Program business and their conduct. Because you may be unfamiliar with many of these standards of practice, it is very important that you read and abide by the Agreement. Please review the information in this Statement of Policies and Procedures carefully. It explains and governs the relationship between you, as an independent contractor and the Company. If you have any questions regarding any policy or rule, do not hesitate to seek an answer from anyone, your Sponsor or from The Morning Ignition Program.
Because federal, state, provincial, territorial and local laws, as well as the business environment, periodically change, The Morning Ignition Program reserves the right to amend the Agreement and its prices for products and services in its sole and absolute discretion. By signing the Associate Agreement, an Associate agrees to abide by all amendments or modifications that The Morning Ignition Program elects to make. Amendments shall be effective upon notice to all Associates that the Agreement has been modified.
Notification of amendments shall be published in official The Morning Ignition Program Materials. The Company shall provide or make available to all Associates a complete copy of the amended provisions by one or more of the following methods: (1) posting on the Companys official website; (2) electronic mail (e-mail); (3) fax-on-demand; (4) voice mail system broadcast; (5) inclusion in Company periodicals; (6) inclusion in product orders or bonus checks; or (7) special mailings. The continuation of an Associates Morning Ignition Program business or an Associates acceptance of bonuses or commissions constitutes acceptance of any and all amendments.
The Morning Ignition Program shall not be responsible for delays or failures in performance of its obligations when performance is made commercially impracticable due to circumstances beyond its reasonable control. This includes, without limitation, strikes, labor difficulties, riot, war, fire, death, Acts of God, curtailment of a partys source of supply, or government decrees or orders.
If any provision of the Agreement, in its current form or as may be amended, is found to be invalid, or unenforceable for any reason, only the invalid portion(s) of the provision shall be severed and the remaining terms and provisions shall remain in full force and effect and shall be construed as if such invalid, or unenforceable provision never comprised a part of the Agreement.
The Company never gives up its right to insist on compliance with the Agreement and with the applicable laws governing the conduct of a business. No failure of The Morning Ignition Program to exercise any right or power under the Agreement or to insist upon strict compliance by an Associate with any obligation or provision of the Agreement, and no custom or practice of the parties at variance with the terms of the Agreement, shall constitute a waiver of The Morning Ignition Programs right to demand exact compliance with the Agreement. Waiver by The Morning Ignition Program can be affected only in writing by an authorized officer of the Company. The Morning Ignition Programs waiver of any particular breach by an Associate shall not affect or impair The Morning Ignition Programs rights with respect to any subsequent breach, nor shall it affect in any way the rights or obligations of any other Associate. Nor shall any delay or omission by The Morning Ignition Program to exercise any right arising from a breach affect or impair The Morning Ignition Programs rights as to that or any subsequent breach.
The existence of any claim or cause of action of an Associate against The Morning Ignition Program shall not constitute a defense to The Morning Ignition Programs enforcement of any term or provision of the Agreement.

KoRn podcast special
A couple months back i was thinkin about all the korn shows i had been to and was getting upset. Seen them 4 times, but 3 were festival appearances, which means you get a new song or two and a greatest hits package. Of course i was also upset with myself but they don't really come to my area much outside of the festival circuit. so to make myself feel better, i launched a new series on my show The Pit called Discover. The purpose is to go through an entire bands catalogue, select 20 or so songs, and talk about them. The kicker is, to try my damndest to avoid any song that got heavy radio/mtv play. so i figured i'd post it here, see what you guys think. it's been one of our most popular shows that we've done. and i think it's a kick ass korn mix.. this was done when Get Up! was all we had from Path Of Totality, and obviously i worked it in. i played through alot of shit on here. both album stuff and unreleased. so check it out if ya want. if not that's fine too. just figured i'd share something korn related that i have done with the fine people here at korn.com. after all they've given, it's the least i could do right?
The Pit - Discover: KoRn
and we're not gonna stop for the pigs or no one!

Re: Korn podcast special
i'd like to add that if this is posted in the wrong area of the forum i apologize. i figured since it was korn related this would be a good spot. and i am in no way tryin to just advertise my show or anything, we do pretty well without me shamelessly plugging all over. i mean i'll plug it, but in a section that doesn't have to do with the band.
and we're not gonna stop for the pigs or no one!

Esquire. Playboy. Food and Wine. Our guests. The raves just keep on coming. No wonder Red, the Steakhouse was named One of the Top Ten Steakhouses in the country.
Esquire. Playboy. Food and Wine. Our guests. The raves just keep on coming. No wonder Red, the Steakhouse was named One of the Top Ten Steakhouses in the country.
"An upscale steakhouse that largely downplays the notion of what a steakhouse should be..."USA Today
"RED succeeds at the high-end steakhouse game – where so many others fail..."Forbes
Named one of the 10 best steakhouses in the country.Playboy
For business meetings that impress. Lunch or dinner get-togethers that wow. Special occasions and holiday soirees. RED sizzles.
Brad Friedlander has chalked up over 30 years in the restaurant business. He's hands-on. Multi-tasking. Able to disseminate what makes a restaurant work superbly and what simply doesn't cut it. His mantra? "It's all about innovation, perfection and execution." It shows. In each and every one of his three award-winning restaurants. Brad's clientele know him by name. Respect him. And understand that there is very little he won't do to make their dining experience remarkable. Simply put. The formula works.
Sure, Chef Partner Jonathan Bennett graduated from Culinary Institute of America. And, he's racked up his fair share of kudos from local and national press. But, the fact remains that when it comes to food, Jonathan Bennett is fearless. In his exploration of combining unusual flavors. In his ongoing thirst for knowledge. And, in his dismissal of what is trendy today, out tomorrow. With Jonathan, the excitement for new flavors is ongoing; the quest for perfection continues daily.
Chef Partner Peter Vauthy doesn't settle. The L'Academie de Cuisine (Gaithersburg, MD) recognized that when he graduated with distinction. The diners at Red, the Steakhouse recognize it from their first bite. Peter's philosophy is simple. "We order and work with the best. If we don't have what the world says is the best, we search for it until we track it down. We don't deal with second-rate ingredients here." No wonder Red keeps racking up awards. As for those who believe that "a steak is just a steak?" Let's just say that Peter has proven otherwise.
He had nearly 20 years of restaurant experience when Jonathan Gross walked into Red Restaurant Group as its COO/CFO. A man with a mission. With approximately 30 restaurants openings under his belt, he needed no orientation. He hit the ground running. Evaluating and improving Red Restaurant Group's operations. Expanding existing brands. Introducing new ones. To Jon, downtime is a four-letter word. Pressing forward full force is the only option.
For those seeking a gift that leaves more than an impression. One that has impact, style, sophistication & taste. This is the gift card that says it all: The Red Restaurant Group Gift Card. Gift cards will be mailed via U.S. Postal Service within 5-7 days of the order.

A Mix & Match Sleep Set is a great option for someone looking for affordability, without sacrificing quality. If the look of your set (which will be under your sheets/comforter anyways) is of secondary concern, Mix & Match is ideal because it consists of two unmatching pieces - a foundation and mattress.
Your foundation is very important - it helps prolong mattress life & absorbs/distributes weight, as well as raising the mattress to a desirable height. The sides feature ticking; the top a skid-resistant fabric. Foundations available include Posture Box, Semi-flex Grid, Foam, Coil Spring & Modular Grid.
Your mattress is the most important part of your sleep set. Ensure you know what you're looking for - it's where you will spend lots of time. There's many coil types (Open, Integrated, Pocket) & top styles (Tight, Pillow, Euro, Euro Pillow) to choose from, as well as deciding between firm & plush.
Sleep sets need support, or the integrity of your set could be compromised. It's especially important for queen- or king-sized sets where improper support can result in twisting/sagging, so look for extra support at the centre. Choose a frame with a centre support rail & extra legs (6 instead of 4).
A tight top is a bare-bones mattress - it has no extra topping at all. Generally, tight top mattresses are firm-feeling as there are only a few inches of fibres between you and the coil system.
Has a few more inches of padding than a tight top, like a single layer of pillowing. Can be made of foams, fibres or a combination. Softer than tight top, but you can feel the support.
Has several more comfort layers than pillow top with no gusset, it's a softer version that is initially comforting. Looks like a small mattress is on top. Made of foam, fibres or a combination.
A combination of euro & pillow top. Generally the plushest, it looks lofty (several inches in height) & feels like sleeping on a cloud. Can be made of different foams/fibres & even other coils.
This hourglass-shaped wire coil is joined to adjacent coils by small wire spirals called helical. The open coil design provides good initial support.
With integrated coil, each row of coils is made of a single wire attached to the next row. It's often made into honeycomb shape to allow more coils which can deflect weight.
Pocket/Independent Coil is a cylindrical spring wrapped in a fabric pocket for more contour. Each coil is independent, creating less disturbance when someone moves.

Students in Anderson University Professor of Management Dr. Michael Collette's strategic management class are learning what it takes to run their own business. The students are making strategic business decisions for simulated companies selling athletic shoes, and each decision plays a major role in how the business works. At the end of the semester, students evaluate their strategies and find out how their simulated shoe sales compared with sales from student groups at other universities.
This year, seven groups from Collette's class are competing with each other, as well as with other schools internationally. Although AU only enters teams from a single undergraduate class, they are competing against both undergraduate and graduate programs.
"When you get to manage all those decisions, you basically come up with a competitive strategy against all the other groups," said senior psychology major Rachel Jones, a member of one of the groups. Her group also included senior marketing majors Drew Beechler and Caitlin Evans.
The business simulation gives students an experiential learning outlet that Collette believes will give them an advantage in the business world.
"The students who do well are the students who want to really take the time to think about how they are going to compete in the industry and how they are going to compete at a higher level than everybody else," said Collette. "Part of it is really looking at what competitive strategy that organization wishes to pursue. The second step is, given that competitive strategy, to determine what other strategic decisions they have to put in place to support that strategy."
By the end of the semester, the seniors participating in the business simulation have had the opportunity to apply all of the skills, knowledge, and strategies that have been gained throughout their classes at the Falls School of Business, and this course adds an experiential learning opportunity to take into the real world.

Greenmen are among the more unique types of decor. Most greenman sculptures literally add a face to the natural world through the use of sculpted foliage or motifs. The results are nothing short of enchanting, and some might say powerful or even haunting when the greenman happens to be a replica of a sculpture from the ancient world. Easter Island is the most remote inhabited island on the globe but it's better known as being a place where the landscape is dotted with giant, greenman sculptures. The true history of the large, carved heads on Easter Island are more or less shrouded in mystery and have been obscured by the passing of many centuries. Although you have to travel to Easter Island to see those massive greenmen face to face, our Easter Island Ahu Akivi Moai Monolith statue helps you put the power and majesty of these amazing sculptures on display right in your own backyard. Our giant, six foot version of this striking statue will make a fun, dramatic statement in any yard.
You can also pay homage to ancient cultures with the Giant Megalithic Olmec Head Statue. The Olmecs were a mysterious, ancient culture that ruled over parts of southeastern Mexico around 3,000 years ago. This culture is most famous for the huge, sculpted heads that were left at the La Venta archeological site. Our colossal sized, very realistic replica of one of these ancient Greenman statues is nearly six feet tall and weighs 253 pounds.
Find these and other unique greenman sculptures, beautiful garden fairies, and other fine decor for the gardens of home and business at Design Toscano.

Sunday, January 13, 2013 from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM (PST)
Update: Did you see this great NPR article "With Growth of 'Hacker Scouting," More Kids Learn to Tinker." During this badge design class we'll discuss forming a Hacker Scouts tribe in Los Angeles.
We are super excited that Doris Yee, Senior UI Designer at GOOD, is going to teach us all how to design a badge that can be shared online or turned into a sticker or button.
In addition to being an excellent instructor, Doris designed all of the badges for the Youth Hack Jam last summer and we can't wait to learn how to come up with ideas and apply design principles to create oustanding awards.
We'll learn how to store our badges digitally using Mozilla's Open Badge Backpack, so you can show them off on your website or resume.
This class is limited to 25 participants.
* We are hoping that some of you are willing to work on an LA Makerspace Member Badge that we will use to create stickers and buttons!

Diphenhydramine is an antihistamine that reduces the effects of natural chemical histamine in the body. Histamine can produce symptoms of sneezing, itching, watery eyes, and runny nose.
Diphenhydramine is used to treat sneezing, runny nose, watery eyes, hives, skin rash, itching, and other cold or allergy symptoms.
Diphenhydramine is also used to treat motion sickness, to induce sleep, and to treat certain symptoms of Parkinson's disease.
Diphenhydramine may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.
Do not give this medication to a child younger than 2 years old. Always ask a doctor before giving a cough or cold medicine to a child. Death can occur from the misuse of cough and cold medicines in very young children.
You should not use diphenhydramine if you are allergic to it.
Ask a doctor or pharmacist if it is safe for you to take this medicine if you have other medical conditions, especially:
FDA pregnancy category B. Diphenhydramine is not expected to harm an unborn baby. Do not use this medicine without a doctor's advice if you are pregnant.

Use exactly as directed on the label, or as prescribed by your doctor. Do not use in larger or smaller amounts or for longer than recommended. Cold or allergy medicine is usually taken only for a short time until your symptoms clear up.
Do not give this medication to a child younger than 2 years old. Always ask a doctor before giving a cough or cold medicine to a child. Death can occur from the misuse of cough and cold medicines in very young children.
Measure liquid medicine with a special dose-measuring spoon or medicine cup. If you do not have a dose-measuring device, ask your pharmacist for one.
For motion sickness, take diphenhydramine 30 minutes before you will be in a situation that causes you motion sickness (such as a long car ride, airplane or boat travel, amusement park rides, etc).

Store at room temperature away from moisture and heat.
Seek emergency medical attention or call the Poison Help line at 1-800-222-1222.
Since diphenhydramine is used when needed, you may not be on a dosing schedule. If you are on a schedule, use the missed dose as soon as you remember. Skip the missed dose if it is almost time for your next scheduled dose. Do not use extra medicine to make up the missed dose.

Latest Update: 11/5/2014, Version: 5.05
A: Diphenhydramine (Benadryl) is a first generation antihistamine mainly used to treat allergies. Like most other first generation antihistamines, the drug also has a powerful sedation effect, and for this reason is often used as a non-prescription sleep aid. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recommends 25 mg and no more than 50 mg as a night time dose. Caution should be taken not to mix two medications containing diphenhydramine (for example, Unisom and Tylenol PM). I find no documented reports of long-term side effects, however, diphenhydramine is not intended for long term use. If you have difficulty sleeping for greater than two weeks, it is important to consult your health care provider to discuss other treatment options. For any immediate concerns, consult your physician. Joseph Hall
A: Nytol (diphenhydramine) is an antihistamine. Diphenhydraminewhich is used to treat cold and allergy symptoms including runny nose and watery eyes, but also causes drowsiness as a side effect and is in over-the-counter sleep aids as well. According to the available drug information, spasms in the legs were not a reported side effect associated with diphenhydramine. If you have been experiencing spasms in your legs, consult with your doctor for proper evaluation, diagnosis of the underlying cause and possible treatment options. Some of the common side effects of Nytol may include sleepiness, fatigue, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, difficulty urinating, or enlarged prostate in men. This is not a complete list of the side effects associated with Nytol. For more specific information, consult with your doctor or pharmacist for guidance based on your health status and current medications, particularly before taking any action. Patti Brown, PharmD
A: Loss of taste and smell were not listed as a specific side effects, according to the prescribing information for diphenhydramine. Please consult with your health care provider in regards to the symptoms you are experiencing for proper evaluation, diagnosis of the underlying cause and to determine possible treatment options. For more specific information, consult with your doctor or pharmacist for guidance based on your health status and current medications, particularly before taking any action. Kristen Dore, PharmD

Special Olympics
So, now to a few notes about this morning's practice, which took place at Seattle Washington University's Championship field from about 11 to 12:30 or so. Just before practice, our Olympians met the Special Olympics Washington team for the first time, then practices along side them.
You see that guy in the photo to the right, that's Ibsen Ayala (FULL BIO). He was getting a little help with his shoes from the coaching staff. Though that smile has me believing he thinks he's some kind of superstar receiving superstar treatment, just leaning back while two coaching work on both shoes. I think I even saw a little wink after I took the photo.
Once ready and stretched the team played shark and did other drills for about an hour. And while soccer was the main focus, Conor Coleman - he of the great one-liner to Conor Casey - couldn't get his mind off last night's dessert. He apparently loved the Godiva cheesecake at the Cheesecake Factory, because he couldn't stop talking about.
And what would a training session along side your opponent be without a little friction. Well, it wasn't really like that, but the two teams got into a little friendly water fight during one of the breaks. No clear winners, just a lot of water!
The final 30 minutes of practice was a 5-v-5 scrimmage, which ended in a 3-3 tie, setting up a good showdown tomorrow. Rapids 'keeper Dominic Sisneros (FULL BIO) took his instructions from coach Philip Knight (FULL BIO) well, because he played fantastic (below).
At the end of practice, the teams huddle up and congratulated each other, yelling out a "Unified" on 3!
First things first, I think this deserves it's own post. Just before practice started this morning in Seattle, the coaching staff named Mackenzie Beauvais-Nikl the Special Olympics Colorado team captain.
The 17-year-old is a goalie on this team, but it's clear her talents are many. Just last spring Mackenzie scored over 10 goals while also stopping every goal but one as goal keeper. And get this, Mackenzie is also involved in 6 other Special Olympic Colorado Sports including: tennis, track, basketball, softball, snowboarding and cycling.
It's neat how the Olympians recognize the Rapids players, and vice versa. Rapids All-time leading scorer Conor Casey and five-time MLS Cup champion Brian Mullan conducted a clinic for these athletes back in Colorado a few weeks ago, so they're still fresh in each other's memories. The Olympians all remember Conor and Brian giving them their Rapids gear!
Tony Cascio and Matt Pickens took the Olympians on a shopping spree at Dick's Sporting Goods in Belmar one night to buy whatever else they needed for the trip.
And if there was any doubt that these athletes are also big fans of the Rapids, Conor Coleman (pictured above with Casey; FULL BIO) made it clear when he provided the quote of the night - possibly the year - when he told Casey to: "Beat the Sounders to a pulp!"
Wayne Brant is the Colorado Rapids Marketing Manager, who is traveling with the Special Olympics Colorado athletes on the trip to Seattle.
(Above: Luis Zapata (left) and Wells Thompson (center) shake hands and accept the Special t-shirts upon arrival in Seattle)
Not long after we arrived in Seattle, we headed out for a team meal at Cheesecake Factory. It took some of the athletes a little time to relax and feel comfortable, after all, this is one of the first times many of them have been away from the comforts of family and home. But as we've all experience, sports has a way of making us comfortable when we can share our passion with others that feel the same way.
After dinner, we brought the Olympians to the Rapids team hotel to greet the team as they arrived. (The Rapids team trained in Colorado this morning and came to Seattle on a later flight than we did).
And this is when the Olympian really began to feel at ease. As the Rapids players got off the bus and walked into the hotel, the Olympians greeted them with "Let's go Rapids" chants and presented each player with Special Olympics Colorado grey and orange t-shirt. The back had a string of positive one word messages, such as "RESPECT, STRENGTH, PASSION, DETERMINATION, FRIENDSHIP, etc."
They then gave head coach Oscar Pareja a Colorado Rapids flag that all the Olympians signed as a gesture of good luck from another member of our One Club. Omar Cummings was then requested to join them in a team photo (below).
On a more humorous note, we told the Olympians that it was Rapids traveling PR rep Rachel Sweeney's birthday. So when they saw, they united to sing her Happy Birthday.
Wayne Brant is the Colorado Rapids Marketing Manager, who is traveling with the Special Olympics Colorado athletes on the trip to Seattle.
The first big weekend is finally here! The Special Olympics Colorado athletes arrived in Seattle, Washington on Friday afternoon ahead of the first of a two-game series against the athletes from Special Olympics Washington.
The group, decked out in the custom apparel the Rapids' first team travels with - complete with Colorado Rapids polos and jackets and adidas travel bags - arrived in Seattle shortly before 2 pm local time. Staying in downtown, they'll have dinner this evening at Cheesecake Factory before settling in.
Training on Saturday will take place at Seattle University from 11-12:30 pm. The group will then attend the Rapids vs Seattle Sounders match at CenturyLInk Field in the evening.
The Olympians will square off Sunday at the Starfire Complex at 12 pm PT.
Special Olympics Colorado has made all the difference in Conor's life. When he joined Special Olympics Colorado basketball in 2002, he had a group of friends for the first time in his life. By rotating through the various sports offered by Special Olympics (over several years) he found his 'place' on the tennis court. He was fortunate to represent Colorado at the Special Olympic National Games in Tennis, 2010.
The present opportunity with the Rapids and Kroenke Sports to play soccer and travel has meant so much to Conor and to us as a family. It has been a positive and affirming experience in every way. He feels respected and important by these organizations.
All of this would not be possible without Special Olympics Colorado. Thank you for giving these kids the chance to shine.
Special Olympics Colorado has given Mackenzie so many opportunities to express herself and grow as a person. We have always tried to promote Mackenzie's independence so that she is as ready as she can be when she graduates from high school. The rapids experience fit very nicely into that plan and actually speeded things up. The Seattle trip gave her confidence in her abilities and allowed her to take on the opportunities she has for leadership. Mackenzie wants to go on a school trip to Italy next year and this trip to Seattle has given us confidence that she will be ready. Not only do we have confidence, but most importantly she believes she can do it. Mackenzie is ready to prove herself and take the opportunities that are in front of her. The Colorado Rapids players have given her a sense of family and belonging. These team members have given her the strength to stand up for herself and feel important. These experiences are priceless and I hope more people begin to realize the importance of unity and the impact it can have on society and the way we live each day.
Shi is a 15 year old new player for the Special Olympics Colorado Rapids Soccer Team. Shi has never played on a competitive soccer team and he is very excited to start. He is hoping to be able to try all of the positions and hopes he can score some goals for his new team. He is open to new opportunities and enjoys meeting new people. In school Shi has played football and basketball as well as participated in school wide soccer activities.
Shi heard about Special Olympics Colorado Rapids Team from one of his teachers in school. As soon as he talked to his mom, he knew he wanted to be a part of it. Shi is most excited about meeting his new teammates. He doesn't currently know any of his teammates but he knows he will make a lot of friends this summer. He is also looking forward to meeting all of the Special Olympics Sounders players when they come to play in Denver.
Sarah is a coach for the Special Olympics Colorado Rapids Soccer Team. She is from Denver, Colorado and attended the Art Institute of Colorado. Sarah enjoys photography and owns a photography and floral company. Her favorite athlete currently is Abby Wambach. Sarah says she "loves her intensity".
Sarah looks forward to becoming part of the Rapids All Star Soccer family and says that "this is a great opportunity because I can take my love of soccer to these kids and see the happiness on their faces. The best part is the smiles from it all".
Mollie is a 30 year old coach for the Special Olympics Colorado Rapids Soccer Team. She is from Green Mountain Falls, Colorado and attended Colorado State University as well as the University of Colorado at Denver. Mollie's favorite sport is volleyball and she enjoys hiking, reading and exploring the beautiful sights of Colorado.
Mollie says that to her the Rapids All Star Team is "a way for students with special needs to be a part of something great and amazing for the community they are in as well as a way for them to be healthy". Mollie is very excited to be a part of this great team and can't wait to get started.
