Alberto Ginés López was already making waves in sport climbing before Tokyo 2020 Becoming the sport's first Olympic gold medallist sealed his reputation as one of the world’s ‘most exciting up and coming rock climbers’ - although he may now be beyond merely up-and-coming Such was his own disbelief in Tokyo that he didn't even celebrate victory not quite trusting that the scoreboard was correct He had won the speed event but finished last in the bouldering before fourth-place in lead gave him a gold medal that took a while to sink in "I wasn't sure if I had won so I didn't want to make a fool of myself," he told El País afterwards. Born in Cáceres, Spain, Lopez began climbing with his parents from a very young age and eventually, with the help of a coach, started to take it very seriously. In 2016 at 13 years old, upon the announcement that sport climbing would be debuting at the Olympic Game, López moved to Barcelona to focus on training for it. Dubbed a ‘premier talent’ by Forbes 30 under 30 for Sports & Games, at 15 years old he scaled a 9A grade rock face, known for being one of the most difficult in the world. He’s shown no signs of slowing down since then. With his enthusiasm and ability in hand, he embarked on competition. In 2017, he took silver in at the IFSC Climbing World Youth Championships in lead. Gold medals soon followed, this time at the European Youth Championships in the same discipline – both in Youth B. In 2019, López made the shift to senior climbing and look right at home scaling courses. In his lead up to the Olympic Games, he won a silver medal at the Lead Climbing European Championships in 2019. In the same month, he finished second in the same event but at the World Cup, winning medals in two of its six events – a bronze and a silver. His rich turn of fortunes aided his qualification for Tokyo. He qualified for the 2020 Olympic Games at the combined qualifiers in Toulouse, coming second in the qualification round – comfortably securing his place in one of the six available spots. The rest is Olympic history. Don't bet against Lopez making more of it at Paris 2024.

urging anyone with information related to these activities to contact the Ridgewood Police Detective Bureau at 201-670-5500 ext Stay with the Daily Voice for updates on this developing story Getafe is one of the largest and most dynamic dioceses in Spain evangelization in a changing society and the role of Cerro de los Ángeles as a center of spirituality The Diocese of Getafe presented in the last week of March the sociological report "Looking to the South of Madrid"The study economic and demographic aspects of the territories located in the south of the Community of Madrid The study points out that the metropolitan south is characterized by high levels of poverty The presentation of the report was attended by the Bishop of Getafe a person who shared his testimony of the help received from Caritas Interview with Bishop Ginés García Beltrán on the challenges of his diocese from the attention to immigrants to the promotion of Cerro de los Ángeles as a spiritual center including the formation of future priests and the application of the social doctrine of the Church The diocese has experienced great growth in recent years due to urban development in the south of Madrid This poses an enormous challenge in evangelization and pastoral care We find ourselves with parishes that have been filled with faithful from different backgrounds and with a great diversity of social and economic situations Our challenge is to create lively and welcoming communities that respond to the spiritual and material needs of all we must face the generational change in the Church It is key to form committed lay people and to care for priestly and religious vocations We are also working on the formation of our priests so that they can better accompany the faithful in this changing context The south of Madrid is one of the areas with the greatest presence of immigrants in Spain It is estimated that in the diocese there are some 250,000 immigrants of very different origins Some of them have come to Madrid as a first stop but many others have previously passed through other regions of Spain or even other European countries The Church responds to this challenge with a threefold response clothing or financial support for urgent situations the personal support they receive from the parish communities Many families have found in the Church a place where they feel at home where they are listened to and accompanied in their difficulties In our parishes we live the universality of the Church They are authentically Catholic communities where the faithful from different countries and cultures live together The most beautiful thing is that many people who were helped on their arrival in Spain There are immigrants who passed through Caritas and today are volunteers The Cerro de los Angeles is much more than a historical place It is the spiritual center of the diocese and a reference point for all of Spain Since the centenary of the consecration of Spain to the Sacred Heart in 2019 we have worked to revitalize its role as a space for prayer and evangelization We have created a specific vicariate for the Cerro and have organized activities ranging from perpetual adoration to spiritual exercises hundreds of the faithful flock to the basilica schools and parishes from all over the diocese and even from outside Madrid choose it as a place of pilgrimage One of the great challenges we have is to improve the infrastructure We would like to build a large house of spirituality to receive pilgrims and groups but the municipal and regional ordinances limit us a lot the only facilities available are the Carmelite monastery and the diocesan seminary in Getafe we maintain a seminary with a stable number of vocations which places us above the minimums established by Rome the formation of future priests is a priority where the pastoral style of the diocese is learned and its identity is internalized in Cerro de los Angeles we have a priestly house where young priests live together who prefer to share community instead of being alone in their parishes This favors mutual support and strengthens the spiritual and fraternal life of the diocesan clergy It is true that the Church's social doctrine has traditionally placed greater emphasis on worker protection especially in times of truly exploitative working conditions the Church's teaching is clear: business has a fundamental role to play in building the common good In the diocese there are very interesting initiatives in this regard. For example, in Parla, a group of Christian entrepreneurs has emerged as part of the ASE Association They meet periodically to reflect on how to live the faith in the business environment and apply the social doctrine of the Church in the management of their businesses The role of the entrepreneur is essential to society create wealth and have the opportunity to positively influence the lives of many people I believe that from the Church we must accompany Christian entrepreneurs more give them formation and offer them spaces to share their concerns and their testimony of faith I would like to encourage all the faithful of the diocese to continue to live their faith with joy and courage The Church in the south of Madrid has a great richness in its diversity and a great responsibility in its mission to bring the message of Christ to all corners of our society I ask you to pray for your priests and seminarians, to be actively involved in your parishes and not to be afraid to witness to your faith in your daily lives.

More than three weeks after winning gold on 5 August 2021, Gines posted that it was still giving him thrills and chills, with a 'close to tears' emoji. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Alberto Ginés López (@albertogines_) Four days after his stunning victory in Tokyo Gines was back in Spain posing for photos in his beautiful hometown of Caceres in Extremadura among the Roman-era structures a town where ancient history echoes through the streets It's been a life-changing summer and the introverted 18-year-old is still processing it all. On 26 August, he posted on his social media that he would not compete in the remaining events on the climbing calendar, and that he needed "time to recharge his batteries". It's been a lot to take in, and he's letting the noise die down, heading to the mountains to climb where he feels most at home. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Alberto Ginés López (@albertogines_) Home is a place that has provided him with plenty of inspiration. His mother Maria Victoria Lopez Espada, or ‘Mavi’ as everyone calls her, works as a nurse's assistant in the San Pedro de Alcantara Hospital in Caceres. Watching her on the frontline of a global pandemic, coming home with lines on her face from wearing masks all day, Gines has talked about how he's amazed and inspired by the fact that she's out there saving lives. His father Alberto Gines Marin has been a huge influence too. As a keen climber himself, family holidays revolved around climbing when Mavi, Alberto Sr, Alberto Jr and his sister Miryam all scale together. On Miryam's Instagram her profile reads: 'Climb now, study later.' Dad has clocked up thousands of miles driving Alberto to elite training centres and competitions around Europe as his talent developed and his career took off. But Olympic gold at 18 on his first try in Tokyo? No one expected that, not even Alberto. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Alberto Ginés López (@albertogines_) "It still hasn't sunk in," Alberto Sr added watched it together in Caceres and their reaction in the video below is priceless Miryam just wanted to "give him a hug Mavi let her emotions flow too sending her son this message: "I love you for who you are and the incredible heart you have." He's a "very humble" person with "huge values" who never delights in the defeat of others Gines' first taste of climbing came as a toddler on the local climbing wall at 'El Rodeo' in Caceres He quickly became hooked and his natural ability was undeniable top coach David Macia saw him climb 'El Delfin' in Rodellar in northern Spain - a 7c+ climb - with ease two-time lead world champion Ramon Julian 'Ramonet' became part of the his too Gines soon outgrew Caceres particularly when the 'El Rodeo' wall disappeared His father would often drive in excess of 800km to elite climbing centres in Germany France and Austria so that Alberto could train and compete When it was announced in 2016 that sport climbing would be part of the Olympic calendar for the first time at the Tokyo 2020 Games the high-performance sports centre in Barcelona There he shared a room with runner Adam Maijo and life was difficult at first for the shy quiet lad from Caceres making friends and becoming more sociable over time His dream was to compete at Tokyo 2020 and soak up the experience before aiming for a medal at Paris 2024 Now Olympic gold medallist is a tag he's getting familiar with but Family and climbing are still the pillars of this Olympic champion's life and up in the rarified air the mountain doesn't care who you are or what you've won go to more Olympic Games and win more medals," he said to COE Spain's Olympic Committee on his return from Tokyo when they asked him what's next Alberto Ginés disappointed at not winning OQS BudapestThe reigning Olympic champion who topped the Boulder & Lead standings in both qualification and semis at OQS Budapest turns focus to defending his Olympic title after fifth-place finish in Hungary The morning clouds at the Ludovika Campus had given way to blazing sunshine, making climbing conditions tough for the eight finalists who also had to deal with difficult routes set on both Boulder and Lead. So difficult that of the four Boulder problems, no one reached the Top hold on any of the first three. Ginés scored just 29.6 points in the round, before compounding his day with an error on the Lead route when he felt he could have gone higher. “The final today… the truth is it went badly, I wasn’t able to enjoy it,” Ginés told Olympics.com in Spanish afterwards. “The Boulder round was very difficult, none of us could do anything, and on Lead due to a mistake I made I wasn’t able to do as well as I would have liked.” He finished fifth overall on 83.6 points, which also knocked him down in the overall OQS standings from second after Shanghai to fourth – something that grated on him. “After finishing first in quails and the semi, I wanted to win today… I would have liked to have qualified first (on the OQS standings) instead of fourth, but I also wasn’t able to either.” Up next for Ginés and his fellow competitors, World Cup stops in Innsbruck and Chamonix. Then Paris calls in August. What will he do between now and then? “Train, train, and train. Step by step, in Paris we’ll try to make it to the final first and if we do that we can start thinking about a medal.” THE FINAL LEAP | The Olympic Qualifier Series 2024Who will secure a spot and represent their country at Paris 2024?

said in that moment but was not going to do it at 76 two years later when I came back to Spain after winning gold I had a message from her: “I’m booking the appointment to get the tattoo.” I was very surprised that she actually remembered it and was going to do it Some athletes are born for the big occasion producing their best performances for when it matters most Going into the OQS Shanghai with

Safety Department Director To Resign Amid Tension With Cambridge Police Department From Lab to Startup: Harvard’s Office of Technology Development Paves the Way for Research Commercialization People’s Forum on Graduation Readiness Held After Vote to Eliminate MCAS 8 Takeaways From Harvard’s Task Force Reports Her new Autumn/Winter 2025 collection features sleek designs and 20th-century silhouettes infused with a contemporary flair all the leather pieces in the collection were vegan leather Many concepts and events influenced Kamali’s collection and the dichotomy between masculinity and femininity Kamali has been a staple in the fashion scene for some time now She is best known for her sleeping bag jacket Kamali brought back the original sleeping bag silhouette and introduced other designs adding different patterns and cuts to the jacket Kamali has always been known for her high-class camping and outdoor wear which is evident throughout the collection and a new leaf print that she debuted in this collection The prints were scattered throughout the clothes giving the collection a modern nature-inspired or hunter-like look This range of prints lent versatility to the garments despite Kamali’s decision to stick to a few classic silhouettes in the collection the outdoor look was inspired by the wildfires earlier this Los Angeles year Kamali was interested in reconsidering her and her wearer’s relationship with nature the fabrics chosen for this collection were very lightweight flowy silhouettes and ensuring that the wearer would not get too hot or too cold Kamali’s presentation exuded a playfulness exemplified by the large LED screen that displayed editorial photos during the exhibit The large silhouettes throughout Kamali’s collection picked up on many contemporary fashion themes such as large baggy pants and skirts which are a large part of the modern fashion zeitgeist Kamali also drew inspiration from looks that were popular during the ’70s and ’80s which was influenced by Kamali’s current fascination with Bob Dylan after watching the Martin Scorsese documentary about his life Kamali highlighted Bob Dylan’s influence on her work by playing his discography through the speakers during the viewing of the collection This inspiration clearly manifested itself in the styling of the clothes Many of the looks were accessorized with black or brown fedoras with feathers Hats and headpieces were emphasized in the collection as other mannequins were adorned with head wraps and headbands Layering was a recurring theme throughout the collection with many looks featuring multiple jackets or skirts worn over each other One creative piece that embodied an ethos of layering was a pair of pants made of leather and mesh A closer look at the pants revealed that the mesh was sewn to the bottom of the leather to fill out the pants This fusion of two different textile fabrics was present throughout the collection as Kamali used quilted fabrics for varying dress designs and in one look placed a leather jacket on top of a quilted jacket Kamali’s affinity for layering and mixing fabrics also resulted in a jacket made of curly faux fur The bottom of the look was a pair of mesh leggings combined with curly fur from the bottom of the knee downward The last significant theme that the showroom highlighted was the split between masculine and feminine — the latter being a significant inspiration for the collection The show representatives explained that Kamali feels like the world is too masculine right now so she wanted to add a feminine touch to the collection The theme of femininity manifested in different ways but one of the most eye-catching was a look that reimagined the well-known silhouette of a suit and the bottom of the look was a long quilted or leather suit the multitude of themes and inspirations lacked a coherent vision Kamali’s collection felt pulled in too many directions and was sometimes contradictory like the Bob Dylan inspiration coupled with the collection's attempt to embrace femininity there didn’t seem to be a clear ethos for the collection which ultimately led to interesting designs but a lack of unified vision and design language —Staff writer Christian A.

But I did enjoy it. We do this all the time but somehow every one (competition) is nerve-wracking and feels different, which is why I love it," Raboutou said after. “I felt pressure. But pressure is a privilege. So, I am excited to use that as an opportunity to learn from this format. Now, it’s just time to do what I love.” It wasn’t all celebrations however.

into the Lead round with 64 points He was trailed by France’s Paul Jenft in second with 49.1 points and Great Britain’s Hamish McArthur in third with 48.8 points Ondra looked like the man to beat moving into the Lead round Tokyo Olympics gold medalist Alberto Ginés López then topped the route and by topping the route he earned the top of the podium Sam Avezou of France had a particularly difficult finals round scoring only 9.8 points in Boulder and 0 points in Lead after an unexpected fall very early on the route “Even though the Boulder results weren’t great I wasn’t that affected,” said Lee after his victory “I was still confident in Lead because Lead is my main discipline I just wanted to do what I could do but I didn’t believe I could top it I trained a lot for this and I realized what it meant.” Every athlete that competed in Shanghai earned points based on their final standing These points will be combined with the points they earn at next month’s Budapest OQS event to determine whether they earn their spot to compete in the Olympics an athlete earns 50 points if they place first athletes are awarded the same amount of points minus one from the place above them Lee therefore earned 50 points in Shanghai This puts the three climbers in an excellent position moving in to the Budapest OQS next month Budapest and Shanghai points will be summed together to reach
