    The Australian Davis Cup Tennis Foundation News Produced for Members of the Foundation ABN 90 004 905 060 October 2015 Britain defeats Australia in Davis Cup Semi-Final Congratulations to the British Davis Cup team led by Andy Murray which defeated Australia 3-2 in a hard fought match in Glasgow from 17-19 September. Murray won both his singles and teamed with his brother John to edge out Groth and Hewitt in five sets in the crucial doubles rubber. Murray received fantastic support from the 8000 strong crowd which was also appreciative of Lleyton Hewitt playing in what was to be his final Davis Cup match. The Australian team showed great fighting spirit and camaraderie and, with the recall of Kyrgios, will be a force to be reckoned with in Davis Cup in the next few years. It is anticipated that Hewitt will take over from Masur as Captain in 2016. Page !1 Around the traps…… Put up your hand if someone has taken your seat! Australian Captain Wally Masur is giving Sam Groth a go as Captain during Kokkinakis’ dead rubber so that he can have a chat with mate Pat Cash. Sam did a good job as Kokkinakis had an impressive straight sets win. Australia v USA The next tie will be in Australia from 6-8 March 2016 against our old rivals, the USA.

Mike Smith, longtime trustee, said that brings the number of parcels to 1,363 in a 7-year-old initiative that allows local homeowners and property owners to pay their property taxes in monthly installments — or other fre- quencies — instead of the more invasive annual lump sum. “This just goes to show us all that Banner photo, CHRISTY ARMSTRONG there are Bradley County citizens who LEADERS of International Friends Network of Cleveland are encouraging both immigrants and Cleveland natives to get involved with the struggle to make that one big lump-sum group.

  • The Rise of Talk Radio and Its Impact on Politics and Public Policy
    Mount Rushmore: The Rise of Talk Radio and Its Impact on Politics and Public Policy Brian Asher Rosenwald Wynnewood, PA Master of Arts, University of Virginia, 2009 Bachelor of Arts, University of Pennsylvania, 2006 A Dissertation presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Virginia August, 2015 !1 © Copyright 2015 by Brian Asher Rosenwald All Rights Reserved August 2015 !2 Acknowledgements I am deeply indebted to the many people without whom this project would not have been possible. First, a huge thank you to the more than two hundred and twenty five people from the radio and political worlds who graciously took time from their busy schedules to answer my questions. Some of them put up with repeated follow ups and nagging emails as I tried to develop an understanding of the business and its political implications. They allowed me to keep most things on the record, and provided me with an understanding that simply would not have been possible without their participation. When I began this project, I never imagined that I would interview anywhere near this many people, but now, almost five years later, I cannot imagine the project without the information gleaned from these invaluable interviews. I have been fortunate enough to receive fellowships from the Fox Leadership Program at the University of Pennsylvania and the Corcoran Department of History at the University of Virginia, which made it far easier to complete this dissertation. I am grateful to be a part of the Fox family, both because of the great work that the program does, but also because of the terrific people who work at Fox.

  • The Real Housing Story
    The Real Housing Story ( Learn how Aptos has housed aspiring professional Tennis players for 20 years ) By Brent Ainsworth Professional tennis players don’t sign guaranteed contracts to play on the ATP tour. There are no signing bonuses upon turning pro. Paychecks aren’t automatically deposited on the first and 15 th of the month, and there’s no such thing as a paid vacation. If the players you see at the $75,000 Comerica Challenger this week play well, they’ll get paid well accordingly. The singles champion will nab $10,800 – not bad at all. But that’s just one lucky (and talented) guy out 32 in the draw. And potentially 28 more might’ve traveled to Seascape Sports Club just for the qualifying tournament, to fight for four coveted spots in the main draw, and failed to make it. Some players have to stop touring more because they run out of cash than because they believe they can’t win. That’s why the free housing provided by Seascape club members and other friends of the tournament is so critical. This tournament is called “75+H,” which means there is $75,000 in prize money plus hospitality, which gives the players the option of paying for their own hotel or motel rooms or stay for free with members of the host club. Usually it’s the more established pros who have experienced a level of success through the years who can afford to pay for hotels week after week. But most of the rookies will gladly take up a Seascape member on the offer and shack up with a brand new friend or family.
