Hall was one of the first members of the Washington Metro Transit Police Department and his direct involvement with Metro helps to provide a very detailed account of the creation, growth, and changes that the Washington Metro and its police department have experienced over the years, and the effect that it has had on its surrounding community. Biography of Daniel Hall Daniel Deidrich Hall was bom in Cleveland, Ohio in 1948 and was raised in a middle class communis onthe East Side of Cleveland with his two sisters, his cousin, and his parents. He has hved in Cleveland, Ohio; Reading, Pennsylvania; Centreville, Virginia; and Silver Spring, Maryland. Daniel Hall graduated from Glenville High School and studied at the Universi^ of Cleveland, the F.B.I. Academy and the Southern Police Institute. After High school, Daniel Hall became the first Afiican American technician to work for the N.C.R. (The National Cash Register Company), and he later was drafted into the marines. Preferring not to serve in the Marines, he enhstedhimself for a four-year term in the U.S. Army. He served in the U.S. Army from August 1968 to April 1974. Furthermore, he tempormily served as the bodyguard for His Imperial Majesty while stationed in Ethiopia, where he was deployed twice.

  • Measurements of the Horizontal Coefficient of Restitution for a Superball and a Tennis Ball
    Measurements of the horizontal coefficient of restitution for a superball and a tennis ball Rod Crossa) Physics Department, University of Sydney, Sydney, NSW 2006 Australia ͑Received 9 July 2001; accepted 20 December 2001͒ When a ball is incident obliquely on a flat surface, the rebound spin, speed, and angle generally differ from the corresponding incident values. Measurements of all three quantities were made using a digital video camera to film the bounce of a tennis ball incident with zero spin at various angles on several different surfaces. The maximum spin rate of a spherical ball is determined by the condition that the ball commences to roll at the end of the impact. Under some conditions, the ball was found to spin faster than this limit. This result can be explained if the ball or the surface stores energy elastically due to deformation in a direction parallel to the surface. The latter effect was investigated by comparing the bounce of a tennis ball with that of a superball. Ideally, the coefficient of restitution ͑COR͒ of a superball is 1.0 in both the vertical and horizontal directions. The COR for the superball studied was found to be 0.76 in the horizontal direction, and the corresponding COR for a tennis ball was found to vary from Ϫ0.51 to ϩ0.24 depending on the incident angle and the coefficient of sliding friction. © 2002 American Association of Physics Teachers. ͓DOI: 10.1119/1.1450571͔ I. INTRODUCTION scribed as fast, while a surface such as clay, with a high coefficient of friction, is described as slow.

  • Golf Course at Eastward Ho! L 11-20-12
    The Golf Course at Eastward Ho! William L. Healy, MD 2012 1 The Golf Course at Eastward Ho! "The Golf Course at Eastward Ho!" was written to tell the story of the golf course and to describe the eighteen golf holes at Eastward Ho! The impetus for this project was the author's amateur interest in golf course architecture and a desire to apply an evolving knowledge of golf course design to the golf course at Eastward Ho! This essay is not a comprehensive history of Eastward Ho! Edward Harriman (1973, 1978) and Virginia Doherty (1988) have previously recorded the history of the club. This project is limited to the story of the golf course and descriptions of the historic, topographic, architectural, and strategic characteristics of the eighteen golf holes. The hole-by-hole discussions include: yardage from the back tees, par, design characteristics, comments on the history, land, and features of the hole, thoughts on strategic playing of the hole, and names which have been suggested for the hole. "The Golf Course at Eastward Ho!" was initially written by and for the author with no intended audience. A brief essay was begun in 2009, and it has evolved to the present manuscript. The opinions expressed are personal, and they do not represent the club or any committee at Eastward Ho! This work was not authorized by Eastward Ho! The information presented is believed to be accurate, and references have been provided. However, this project is a work in progress. If readers discover incomplete information or unintended errors, please send suggestions for improvement.

  • Ball Trajectories
    42 Ball Trajectories Factors Influencing the Flight of the Ball Nathalie Tauziat, France By Rod Cross Introduction good tennis player knows instinctively how hard to hit a ball and at what angle to get the ball over the net and into the court so that the ball lands at just the right spot. This comes from years of practice. Players Amight be surprised to know just what they are doing in terms of the actual ball trajectories. For example suppose you hit a forehand at the baseline so that the ball lands on your opponent's baseline 78 feet away. If you hit the same ball but 1% faster it will land 18 inches beyond the baseline. If you hit the ball one degree higher it will land about 6 feet beyond the baseline, depending on the initial speed and angle. If you hit the ball one degree further to the left it will land 16 inches further to the left. When serving a ball at moderate to high speed, the ball must be served a few degrees down from the horizon- tal. Too far down and the ball will hit the net. Not enough and the ball will be long. The range of possible angles is only about two degrees, and it gets smaller if the ball is served faster or by a shorter player (Brody, 1987). The range of angles increases if the ball is served with topspin. Typical ball trajectories are shown below, togeth- er with an explanation of the trajectories. 368 Chapter 42 Examples of Ball Trajectories (a) Dropping a Ball (Free Fall) Suppose that a ball is dropped from a height of 1.0 m (about waist height) and is allowed to fall to the ground.

  • The Continental Grip – Swiss Army Knife of Tennis
    Continental Grip – the Swiss Army knife of tennis This is the most universally used grip in tennis. In fact, Continental means all-around grip. It was once known as the Aussie grip because famous Australian players such as Rod Laver and Ken Rosewall employed this grip for all of their shots—groundstrokes, volleys, serves, & overheads. The continental grip is most notably used for the serve, overhead, and volley. Because of its extreme versatility, this grip is also used to execute the half-volley, chip, slice, lob, and defensive shots. Players, who become comfortable early in their development with the continental grip, develop and progress much more rapidly. Learning to play with the continental grip will give you the enormous advantage of never having to think about changing your grip when you are up at net, especially during a rapid-fire volley exchange (seen often in doubles). However, for many players, the Continental grip is too uncomfortable, because it does not place the hand and wrist squarely behind the impact with the ball, especially on the forehand side. The awkwardness is because most players are not taught to use this grip early in their development. I teach the continental grip first to my beginning students because it can be and is used on a variety of shots. In my experience, most beginners feel more comfortable using an eastern forehand grip (EFG) on the forehand volley, and an eastern backhand grip (EBG) for the backhand volley. The EFG puts more of the palm of your hand behind the racquet, and players falsely think it makes the wrist stronger at contact.
