I like plotting a course for new horizons Editorial and wondering how to get there. But something Nathaniel Harrison happened recently which provided me an Marge McGann opportunity for reflection. Carrie Rupp I really had no frame of reference heading into Contributors the 2007 USTA Middle States Hall of Fame Tom Benic Induction Dinner and Auction. I knew it was our Costello Photography section’s biggest annual event but the details were Loretta DeWalt being skillfully handled by Rose Weinstein and Monique Holloway her committee and supported by Marge McGann and her staff. I anticipated enjoying the dinner and Karen Jennings meeting new people, but I was unprepared for the lasting impact it would have on me as a person and Dr. Craig Kimmel, M.D. as Executive Director of Middle States. Ann LoPrinzi Marlynn Orlando Richard Rauenzahn I sat in the Doneckers Ballroom with 250 other attendees and listened intently as one by one, each Ben Zislis inductee was introduced. Of course, I was impressed by their achievements in tennis competition but I was truly inspired by their combined contributions to tennis, Middle States, USTA and humanity. USTA Middle States Officers These are people who love the game of tennis so much and have given of themselves over and over again, President spreading their infectious spirit unto countless others. They have created a legacy, and individually and Malcolm T. Riley Jr. collectively they have created the USTA Middle States past, present and future. Senior Vice President It’s not easy to stop a forward mover like me in my tracks…getting me to take a breath and think Jeff Harrison about our history, but the Hall of Fame managed to do it. It has made me appreciate even more, Secretary the numerous volunteers who have and continue to support Middle States and make it the strong Ruth Roulston association it is today. And it has inspired me to remember that working is not about the results you Treasurer get today, but about the lasting impact you make for years and years to come. I salute all of our past, Patricia Weger present and future volunteers for their contributions and I congratulate and thank the 2007 Hall of Fame inductees.

I find it amazing that the same parents who spend $500 per week or more on tennis instruction will choose to save money on their child’s most important piece of tennis equipment – their shoes. I recently treated a 15-year-old who was having severe pain in her feet. She said Delaware the pain started about two weeks after getting a new pair of sneakers. When Contributor I asked her how she chose her sneakers, she said her mother told her she could order them online. She was also instructed to spend no more than $50. She went online and picked Monique a pair of sneakers that matched her team uniform color. Holloway Let me suggest a better way to choose a pair of tennis shoes. Before you buy a pair of shoes do a little bit of preparation. Write down what you like and dislike about your current tennis shoes. Make a list of those things that are most important to you. Some young players who play baseline on hard courts may have durability as their primary concern. Older players, or those playing on clay, may be looking for a lighter or more cushioned shoe. Eastern PA When you begin shopping try to find a store that carries a large variety of tennis shoes. A tennis Contributor specialty store is probably your best bet. Once you find a store you like, make sure the sales staff is knowledgeable about their footwear and also, what is appropriate for you. They should ask you what Loretta sneakers have worked well for you in the past, what your style of play is and what court surfaces you use. DeWalt Don’t forget to bring along your old sneakers so they can evaluate the wear patterns. They should also watch you walk in your old sneakers to evaluate your foot type. A good shoe store will always measure both feet in both length and width. Most people have slightly different foot sizes. Tennis shoes should be purchased to the size of the larger foot. Once you find a pair of shoes you like remember these key tips: • Always try on shoes in the late afternoon when the feet are the most swollen or after playing New Jersey tennis. Feet often swell by 10 percent during competition. Contributor • Always try on both shoes and walk and run in them. Try tennis motions such as cutting Ann LoPrinzi and pivoting and being up on your toes to be sure they are comfortable. • Always wear the same socks that you will play tennis in to ensure proper fit. • All shoes should have the width of your thumb of free space at the end of your shoe. Check for this when you try them on. This should be done while you are standing not sitting • Always check both shoes inside and out for any rough edges, prominent seams or loose flaps. A good tennis shoe should always feel comfortable from the instant you try it on. Your feet are very NETPLAY NETPLAY Philadelphia smart. Listen to them! If they tell you that a shoe is not comfortable don’t buy it. If the shoe salesman Contributor tells you that you must “break-in” the sneaker before it feels comfortable or that the most expensive shoe • is the best shoe, run; don’t walk out of the store. WINTER 2007-08 Karen If you’re having foot pain, or trouble finding the ideal tennis shoe for you contact your physician. Jennings As one of our local pros loves to say, “you can’t go anywhere in tennis without your feet.” Dr. Kimmel, Primary Care Sports Medicine, practices Family Practice and Sports Medicine in Cherry • Hill, Lumberton, Moorestown and Mount Holly, N.J.

Cook Submitted to the Department of Urban Studies and Planning on January 8, 2018 in partial fulfillment for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Urban and Regional Planning ABSTRACT Decentralization policy in India has coalesced in recent years around interrelated concerns over the transparency of local government financial management and reporting systems and the capacity of urban local bodies to implement modern performance budgeting and accrual accounting structures. This dissertation examines the relationship between these policy concerns in the case of Bangalore and looks deeply into the role of information technology providers in advocating for greater local government financial transparency and accountability through financial management information system projects.
