Extractions: Web Site Rather than just drills, I have included motivational quotes and messages in the One Hand Typing and Keyboarding Manual that will inspire and encourage the one hand typist. For instance, did you know that Auguste Renoir (1841-1919), the famous French Impressionist painter and sculptor, was so disabled by rheumatoid arthritis, his paint brushes had to be tied to his hands? Eassays My Mother To You More Than Hope Why Do These Things Have To Happen? Neat quotes and facts about ... Jim Abbott Bob Dole Art Berg ... Having only one hand might make you feel handicapped. But, the reality is, you are as handicapped as you want to be. With two perfect hands you can do a 9 million things. With one-hand, you can do 8 million. You can focus on the 1 million you can't do, or on the 8 million you can do. No one accomplishes even a fraction of those things we could do, if we would just try. But, can you have superstar accomplishments, with one less hand than the rest of the world? Meet Jim Abbott Jim Abbott is a very famous baseball player.

Jim Abbott
I answer a lot of letters, but baseball has got to be my priority. Copyright1989 Time Inc. ROB BROFMAN jim abbott, SPORTS ONE FOR THE ANGELS .
http://www.judithcaseley.com/JAbbott.htm

Extractions: When Jim Abbott was five years old he was given a prosthetic hook. It lasted a year and a half before he discarded it, and he has dealt with his birth defect in his own way ever since, doing more with his one hand than most others do with two. His 94 mph fastball (plus a lightning-quick glove switch) earned him the Sullivan Award as best amateur athlete and an Olympic gold medal in Seoul. Still, even savvy baseball people were surprised when Abbott, 21, was named a starting pitcher for the California Angels last March only the 10th pitcher since 1965 to join the majors without minor league experience. In Anaheim, where the fans are learning that Abbott's left arm is far more interesting than his right, he has become an immediate hometown favorite. After his first major league win Abbott talked with reporter Rob Brofman. WINNING That night I had the most incredible euphoria. I just wanted to hold on to it. I'd say there's nothing better than pitching a game and doing well. Nothing. I called my parents and they didn't care about me winning well, they actually love it but I think they were more worried about me jumping off a bridge or something if I hadn't. Because when you've pitched and done poorly, it's a lowly, hollow feeling, like you let the whole world down. That's the part of it I don't like. You've got to suffer through that for five days (before pitching again). ROOKIE LIFE I don't love baseball as much as I used to. It's hard work. It's hard sitting there in the dugout for nine innings every day doing nothing. It's boring, but the worst part is the insecurity never knowing exactly where you're supposed to be, what's going on. You're always afraid of slipping up. The best part of being a rookie is the newness of things. You look in the locker and there's something new every day a new jacket, new spikes, a new glove.

Extractions: Jim Abbott By Cody Hobbies and fun Jim Abbott always loved sports. In jr high he played football. He was one of the best quarterbacks on his team. One of Jim's hobbies is to play baseball. He played professinally for the Angels and the New York Yankees. What is so amazing about this is that he only has one hand. His parents names were Mike and Kathy. He had a brother named Chad. I wonder if he liked sports like jim abbott did? Timeline Jim Abbott was born in Flint, Michigan on September 19, 1964. He was born with out his right arm. Jim did things other kids did, like play sports and he was often the best player. Jim played baseball at the University of Michigan. He played sports throughout his life and finally made it to the majors. Why Jim was important Jim was one of the best pitchers in the major leagues. He is only the fifteenth person to go straight to the major leagues skipping the minor leagues. As a rookie, he was the fifth best player in the major leagues. He got traded to the New York Yankees. he was one he was one of the best quarterbacks in high school. What was most important is that he showed people with disabilities can do things just like everyone else can do. photo from: http://www.umich.edu/~bhl/bhl/olymp2/ol1988.htm

Extractions: April 5, 1999 TOP TWOSOMES No team has two better everyday players than the Seattle Mariners, with Ken Griffey and Alex Rodriguez. Griffey, probably the best player in the game, won't turn 30 until November. Rodriguez, maybe the best shortstop, will turn 24 in July. Some other top twosomes to look for this season: Barry Bonds and Jeff Kent (San Francisco), Juan Gonzalez and Rafael Palmeiro (Texas), Mo Vaughn and Tim Salmon or Jim Edmonds (Anaheim), Larry Walker and Vinny Castilla or Dante Bichette (Colorado), Manny Ramirez and Jim Thome (Cleveland), Carlos Delgado and Shawn Green (Toronto), Chipper Jones and Javy Lopez (Atlanta), Mark McGwire and Ray Lankford or J.D. Drew (St. Louis). Several twosomes will be missing because of trades, injury or illness. Among them: Nomar Garciaparra and Vaughn (Boston), Frank Thomas and Albert Belle (Chicago White Sox), Gonzalez and Will Clark (Texas), Jones and Andres Galarraga (Atlanta), Moises Alou and Jeff Bagwell (Houston). Check out these numbers from last season (a threesome included where appropriate): SEATTLE HR RBI AVG Griffey Rodriguez BOSTON HR RBI AVG Garciaparra Vaughn HOUSTON HR RBI AVG Alou Bagwell SAN FRAN.
