Monday, January 17, 2000 H A W A I I P R E P S P O R T S By Kathryn Bender, Star-Bulletin Jesse Placourakis won a title at last year's All-Japan Junior Championships The karate kid Jesse Placourakis is a whiz in the karate world, taking a title at the All-Japan Junior Championships at the age of 8 By Rod Ohira Star-Bulletin His emotions are masked by a stoic expression, the signature trait of a tough competitor. Jesse Placourakis is the real thing, a karate kid who at age 8 was the youngest American to win a title at last year's prestigious All-Japan Junior Championships. The Japan tournament, which is held every four years, is considered the Olympics of traditional full-contact sparring karate competition and the event attracted an international field of more than 600 competitors. "Karate teaches you many different things about courage and patience," Jesse said. "When I'm in a bad mood, I know how to make myself relax." Controlling anger is another factor, he says. "When we play touch football, it's hard to figure out first downs so sometimes arguments lead to fights," Jesse said. "Because I know karate, I have to remain calm and not fight."

Nor could there uniforms been UNIFORMS: a war had there been no English intrigues and no Duke of Oldenburg, and had Alexander not felt insulted, and had there not been an autocratic government in Russia, or a Revolution in France and a subsequent dictatorship and Empire, uniforms all the things that produced the French Revolution, and so on.

Issue 32- August 10th thru August 16th 1998, Vol VIII Junior Football Team Leaves for Qatar DIFFICULT MISSION! Our junior football team left Yemen last Friday for Qatar to start a training camp. The team will participate in the Asian tournament for juniors held from August 21st to 25th. Yemen is in Al-Doha group which also includes Qatar, Bahrain, and Iran. The team started a local training camp on July 7th. However, the team is still not well prepared and has not participated in any preparatory matches. That is why, the coach, Mr. Ameen Al-Sonaini, decided his team should play with Qatari teams before the tournament starts. The Yemeni players seem to have a very high morale. Many of them are optimistic about achieving good results. Al-Sonaini says to Yemen Times: " The task is hard but when you see how optimistic our players are. The team is in very good spirits. I hope that we will overcome all the difficulties and do well" Yemen Times wishes the best for our national team. They have good ambition, but is that enough?!
