Both will aim to use home advantage to have a good run here this year – Monfils will look for a repeat of his 2008 performance when he reached the semifinals, while Pouille will hope to emulate the form he displayed in reaching the last 4 at the Australian Open in January to impress the home fans in Paris. • Monte Carlo champion Fabio Fognini takes on fellow Italian Andreas Seppi in the first match on Court Simonne Mathieu today. It will be the 8th all-Italian meeting at Roland Garros in the Open Era and the 16th all-Italian clash at the Grand Slams in the Open Era. The pair are tied at 4 wins apiece in their previous Tour-level match-ups, but Seppi has not beaten his compatriot and Davis Cup teammate since 2010 and will have to put in an inspired performance if he is to defeat to the No.

    THE US OPEN T O Throughout its 133-year history, the US Open has dared its entrants to dream U R I N big, to strive for excellence in each and every match, and in turn the Open has N F A O done the same. It has moved from the West Side Tennis Club in Forest Hills to the M USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center, one of the largest public tennis facili - E N ties in the world, and plays its marquee matches in Arthur Ashe Stadium, the T largest tennis stadium in the world. Over the years, the US Open has drawn inspiration from tennis heroes such as Billie Jean King and Arthur Ashe, as well as the innumerable world-class players who have taken part in the event and, of course, from the hundreds of thousands of fans whose dedication to the sport and the F G A event have made the US Open a true sports and entertainment spectacular. In fact, more than R C O I L 700,000 fans on-site make the US Open the world’s largest-attended annual sporting event, and U I T N more than 53 million online visitors plus a global television audience share in the thrill and excite - Y D & ment each year. S Starting with Arthur Ashe Kids’ Day—the world's largest single-day, grass-roots tennis and entertainment event—straight through Finals Weekend, the US Open honors its future and its past, celebrating those who have made the tournament what it is today while also focusing on the next generation that will write tennis history well into the coming decades.

    Physics of Tennis Lesson 4 Energy

    The Physics of Tennis Lesson 4: Energy changes when a ball interacts with different surfaces Unit Overview: In this unit students continue to develop understanding of what can be at first glance a complicated system, the game of tennis. In this activity we have taken two components of the game of tennis, the ball and court, to see if we can model the interactions between them. This activity focuses on the energy interactions between ball and court. Objectives: Students will be able to- • Describe what forces interact when the ball hits a surface. • Understand what changes occur when potential and kinetic energy conversion is taking place within a system. At the high school level students should include connections to the concept of “work =FxD” and calculations of Ek = ½ 2 mv and Ep =mgh according to the conservation of energy principal. • Identify the types of energy used in this system. (restricted to potential & kinetic energy) • Comparative relative energy losses for typical court compositions. Lesson Time Required: Four class periods Next Generation Science/Common Core Standards: • NGSS: HS-PS3-1.Create a computational model to calculate the change in the energy of one component in a system when the change in energy of the other component(s) and energy flows in and out of the system are known. • CCSS.Math. Content: 8.F.B.4 Use functions to model relationships between quantities. • Construct a function to model a linear relationship between two quantities. Determine the rate of change and initial value of the function from a description of a relationship or from two (x, y) values, including reading these from a table or from a graph.

The United Nations confirmed that an armed group captured 43 UN peacekeepers on the Syrian side of the Golan Heights yesterday, saying it was doing everything to secure their release. — AFP Local FRIDAY, AUGUST 29, 2014 In my view Alcoholism in Kuwait By By Sara Ahmed KUWAIT: A woman participates in a weaving course at Sadu House. [email protected] lcohol is illegal in Kuwait and because of this, there is little to no discussion about alcoholism, Aits impact on the individual, the family or socie- ty. Yet alcoholism cuts across all social, nationality, economic and racial barriers. It can also be found in many homes in Kuwait and security forces regularly arrest smugglers or home brewers. Setting aside the illegality of the matter, however, the question of alco- holism is seldom addressed for several reasons. First, given that alcohol is illegal, it’s a closed subject. How can someone seek treatment for alcoholism when they are not supposed to be drinking in the first place? Many would fear legal action or criminal charges for possession or consumption.

    How Sports Help to Elect Presidents, Run Campaigns and Promote Wars."

    Abstract: Daniel Matamala In this thesis for his Master of Arts in Journalism from Columbia University, Chilean journalist Daniel Matamala explores the relationship between sports and politics, looking at what voters' favorite sports can tell us about their political leanings and how "POWER GAMES: How this can be and is used to great eect in election campaigns. He nds that -unlike soccer in Europe or Latin America which cuts across all social barriers- sports in the sports help to elect United States can be divided into "red" and "blue". During wartime or when a nation is under attack, sports can also be a powerful weapon Presidents, run campaigns for fuelling the patriotism that binds a nation together. And it can change the course of history. and promote wars." In a key part of his thesis, Matamala describes how a small investment in a struggling baseball team helped propel George W. Bush -then also with a struggling career- to the presidency of the United States. Politics and sports are, in other words, closely entwined, and often very powerfully so.
