Kicking ass in Rio in a matter of weeks.

U.S. SOCCER FORWARD ALEX MORGAN ALREADY HAS A FIFA WORLD CUP CHAMPIONSHIP AND A GOLD MEDAL FROM THE LONDON OLYMPICS TO POWER HER TO THE 2016 GAMES IN RIO DE JANIERO. SHE IS ALSO ONE OF THE FIVE WOMEN ON THE U.S. WOMEN'S SOCCER TEAM WHO FILED A COMPLAINT DEMANDING EQUAL PAY FOR EQUAL PLAY FOR FEMALE ATHLETES. MORGAN PLAYS FOR ORLANDO PRIDE WHEN THE NATIONAL TEAM ISN'T DOMINATING THE GAME, AND HER HUSBAND, MAJOR LEAGUE PLAYER SERVANDO CARRASCO, PLAYS FOR ORLANDO CITY.

If the tale of American women's soccer begins with a sports-bra victory slide and a 1999 US World Cup Title, then the story's latest chapter lies at the blazing feet of goal scoring machine Alex Morgan.

On the field Alex is graceful and gritty, smooth and strong, darting around defenders to the net one minute and overpowering them the next. A blur on the pitch, she overwhelms with her attacking style, bringing defenses to their knees and fans to their feet. And having scored late goals in World Cup and Olympic matches, she is a pressure performer, thriving when the stage is grandest and all eyes are on the sport she owns.

An Olympic, WPS and NWSL champion, a US Soccer Female Athlete of the Year and a member of the USWNT's All-Time Best XI squad, she is a proven winner at an age when few can say the same.

Glamorous sportswoman, social media phenom, marketing icon-she is all this and more, proof that the female athlete's ability to inspire and excite stretches far beyond the field.

She is Alex Morgan. And 15 years after her sport first washed up on American shores, she is the new face of US Women's Soccer.

Ohio Cemetery Safari

Joc-O-Sot/Walking Bear (1810-1844) gravestone Joc-O-Sot was of the band Bear, tribe Osauckee of the Algonquin nation, according to the memorial marker, but was he a Sauk? Perhaps a Sauk is of the Osauckee. But was he the chief of the Meskwaki/Fox tribe? The Sauks and Meskwaki were closely allied and fought together in the Black Hawk War of 1831/1832, where Joc-O-Sot was wounded. After the war he came to Cleveland, working as a fishing and hunting guide. He later toured with a theatrical troupe run by Dan Marble, which supposedly showed Native American life. Traveling in England, he performed for Queen Victoria, who was impressed enough to commission a portrait of him. Joc-O-Sot became ill and returned to the United States, apparently wanting to return to his homeland (he was born in Iowa, but his people may have been buried in Wisconsin of Minnesota). He made it to Cleveland before he died, and was buried in the Erie Street Cemetery. It is reported that vandals da
