In the early part of the 20th century, male tennis players had to wear all white which usually included a white button up shirt, while flannel trousers, and often a white v-neck cable knit sweater. This was due to disguising sweat and keeping the image of the sport clean and classy. It wasn't until the late 1960's that men were allowed to wear color as it was debated that spectators couldn't differentiate players on the court.

A Salvaged Winter
|
Posted on March 24, 2015 by R_Allen

With California receiving a record low snow fall in 2014-2015, a strong mix of persistence and optimism was required in order to salvage an enjoyable ski season. Since both Beth and I are nearing the end of our PhD's and done with coursework, we decided to both get shares in a cabin in Tahoe with 10 other good friends. Being able to work in the morning and ski in the afternoon brought me as close to being a ski bum as I ever have been. The cabin was the primary, if not the sole, reason for having such a great season in spite of snow conditions.
|
Beth cheerfully takes in the rare sight of powder at Northstar
|
I tend not to bring my camera while snowboarding so I have few images from the season. Perhaps it's due to the non-stop nature of our days on the mountain; perhaps it's fear of falling – something I do quite frequently – and damaging my camera; however I think that it is most likely that I don't bring my camera because I don't have any creative ideas on how to shoot on the slopes. Skiing/riding at resorts is a very common activity. A decent portion of the population has experienced a day at a resort. They know how it looks, feels, smells, sounds, etc. on the slopes so it would be difficult for me to take a picture that presents a novel aspect of a day riding.
|
In the future, however, I think I'll try to bring my camera more. It was a fun challenge to shoot something new and post on something other than kayaking (although those are still my favorite posts).
|
The best camera is the one you have with you. Pulled out my iPhone to try to capture the stunning views of Lake Tahoe from Heavenly after a snow.
|
Tired of the poor conditions in California, looking for an excuse to visit home, and wanting to make full use of the multi-state season pass we bought, we flew to Colorado in mid-March. We missed any powder days but the warm, nearly cloudless weather made for excellent spring conditions.

DND supports Duterte's call for the NPA to surrender
|
[ 312 words|2017.11.4|英字 ]
|
The Department of National Defense (DND) expressed support on President Rodrigo Duterte's call for the New People's Army (NPA) fighters to lay down their arms.
|
"The president's latest call for the NPA fighters to lay down their arms returns to society, and live normal lives only shows that he is giving the NPA every chance at achieving a peaceful resolution to the longstanding armed conflict," Defense Secretary Delfin Lorenzana said in a statement yesterday.
|
"The Department of National Defense fully supports the peace and security agenda of the President," he said.
|
"We reiterate our call for the NPA to stop all their illegal activities, return to the fold of the law, and be part of the real change that the President has spearheaded for the betterment of our country and the lives of our people," he added.
|
Lorenzana also reiterates the government's effort to help the NPA fighters to have a peaceful life.
|
"He has offered homes and livelihood to every NPA fighter that returns to the fold of the law. The president gives the NPA a chance to change and live a decent life. His offer to accommodate members of the communist movement shows his sincerity," Lorenzana said.
|
"We are delighted to note that a number of NPAs have accepted the offer and are now restarting to live normal lives. There are a lot of them who voluntary return to the government folds," the secretary added.
|
In a press conference in Davao City after he returned from his trip in Japan, Duterte expressed his support on the localized peace talks by the local government of Davao City. He also reiterated his call for the NPA to surrender and return to the folds of the law.
|
Duterte made his call despite the termination of the peace negotiation between the government and the Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP) early this year. Robina Asido/DMS<eot>"Great Expectations for New and Existing Dams" - AVK at ANCOLD 2017

|
1,691,669 relationships already tested
|
Who is Houston McTear? He is a male celebrity. He was born on Tuesday February 12th 1957, in Unknown.
|
Houston McTear is the philanthropist and humanitarian who is deeply concerned about the state of the world, for which he has great compassion and idealism. He has a utopian personality, and will spend her life trying to realize some aspect of her utopian dream, sacrificing money, time, and energy for a better world.
|
His broad outlook on life allows McTear to see the big picture, and to often shy away from dealing with the minute details. That is why Houston McTear attracts people who can fit into her larger plans and take over the areas he considers uninteresting. Consequently, Houston evaluates people on the basis of what they can do for the larger cause. He is a true egalitarian, rarely prejudiced and would not accept social biases of people.
|
Interior decorating, landscape art or photography can be the sort of fields in which Houston's imagination and creativity can harmoniously arrange the beauty already potential in the environment. However, due to his strong social consciousness - he can be an effective politician, lawyer, judge, minister, teacher, healer, environmentalist or in any other vocation that carries a clear social impact.
|
Houston McTear has a romantic personality, but his love is more impersonal as he tends to be focused on her dreams instead. When not in harmony with his true nature, Houston can fall to moodiness, or become aloof, and withdrawn. He can also become timid, uncertain, and ungrateful, putting the blame for his troubles on others or the world. He is often disappointed by the realities of life, her own shortcomings, and those of others, and is relentlessly driven to improve upon it all - striving for greater accomplishments. This is Houston's life-lesson - to accept the natural limitations of the world and its habitants in order to make it possible for him to enjoy life more fully.
|
McTear must learn to let go of material possessions and relationships because holding on too tightly to anything causes him pain. The more he gives, the bigger is his reward, and the most successful and satisfying road for him is sharing and sacrificing for the larger goal, without expecting anything in return. Houston McTear's greatest chance at success is to tie his personal fortunes to an endeavor that makes the world a better place for others. It may very well turn into a highly successful and lucrative enterprise, providing amply for Houston and her family. More...
|
Entrepreneurial and progressive, Houston McTear is ever-striving, heading for the top, and enjoying an enterprising, ambitious and determined personality to do things well, and an unyielding dedication to his plan until the goals are achieved.
|
Houston McTear sensed and project self-confidence that calls for successful handling of money matters.
|
However, Houston might also be characterized today as hard-headed and stubborn - traits that might lead to domestic squabbles and broken commitments.

|
Griffin has taken the line of many leading environmentalists that overpopulation is a environmental threat – but he's no green
|

|
Normally, the majority of us may not care about the environmental policies of the British National party. But this week and next, its leader, Nick Griffin, is representing the EU at the climate negotiations in Copenhagen.
|
His policies are the most confused, or perhaps the most disingenuous, you are likely to come across. Greenwash on stilts.
|
This paper on Saturday listed Griffin among the prominent climate sceptics. Not unreasonably, as Griffin told the European parliament last month that those who warned about global warming were "cranks" who had reached "an Orwellian consensus ... based not on scientific argument, but on bullying, censorship and fraudulent statistics". He called climate change a "new theology" that "is being used to impose an anti-human utopia as deadly as anything conceived by Stalin or Mao."
|
But is this the same Nick Griffin, who leads a party whose website claims to be the "only true green party"? The party that, while admitting some uncertainty about how much of climate change is man-made, nonetheless says that it is "a threat to Britain", and that "we should try and minimise emissions of greenhouse gases"?
|
And is this the same Nick Griffin who was interviewed by the respected American journalist Stephan Faris in his recent book on the social implications of climate change, Forecast?
|
Talking "in an east London pub on a rainy afternoon", Griffin explained to Faris his thinking on the links between immigration and the environment. "Every person we take from the third world with a tiny climate footprint and bring them [sic] into the western world, we're massively increasing their impact of carbon release into the world's atmosphere. There's no doubt about it, the western way of life is not sustainable. So what on Earth is the point of turning more people into westerners."
|
I can't see the intellectual thread between this and his rant to the European parliament. But hey, who said being a green racist reactionary was easy?
|
We should perhaps not dismiss Griffin's words too quickly, however. Maybe he knows a thing or two about the right. He went on to tell Faris that rising immigration pressure and worries about climate change will drive environmentalists and nationalists together.
|
And sadly, he may not be far wrong. In France, Griffin's fellow MEP Jean-Marie Le Pen and his far-rightists have been banging their own version of a nationalist green drum for years. Likewise Austria's rightwing Jörg Haider, until his death last year.
|
The BNP has adopted the line of many of Britain's leading environmentalists – notably Jonathan Porritt and James Lovelock – that "overpopulation" is a major threat to the environment and that "Britain's environmentally sustainable carrying capacity is substantially lower than its present population".
|
And it is less than five years since a faction within the US Sierra Club nearly succeeded in taking over the country's oldest and most venerated environmental organisation on a platform of keeping out immigrants in order to protect American wilderness. (Nobody seemed to spot the obvious point that while you can erect fences against foreigners coming in, you can't erect fences to keep American greenhouse gases from escaping into the global atmosphere and wrecking the environment of the would-be migrants.)
|
But back to Griffin. I've never met him, but Faris told me this week: "I find him fascinating, because although he says he doesn't believe in climate change he's very much positioning his party to take advantage of its effects." Is this confused cynicism greenwash or just green fascism? Either way, it is not pleasant.<eot>The Communist party offered just one bitter pill.

There's a lot to be said for this approach. Unlike football where yoga would temper the uh, temper, that is required to play the game well, baseball is more of a flow game and hitting a ball requires precision and reflexes more than brute strength.
|
Maybe they got tired of lifting women like dumbells and realized that yoga and it's, let's call them "practitioners", offer more, lets call it, possibilities.
|
I for one am glad to see them go this route. Or, as a former Delta House strength and endurance coach once said... Yo-Ga Yo-Ga Yo-Ga!
|
Remember last year when John Carlo showed up, newly slimmed down and more agile looking? How long did he last?
|
Maybe they should bring in an Exer-cise-orcist for Gary Sanchez. "The power of Christ compels you, to lay off the low and outside pitch."
|
And it is a give that, if Los Yanquis ever needed to change the franchise name, they would be "The Yogis."
|
If they really had a sense of humor and the ability to laugh at themselves, they could call themselves "The Babes," but I prefer "The Yogis."
|
These guys have to stay on the field for Yankees to get past the 1st round. So whatever it takes is fine. Lifting weights doesn't cut it in baseball.

Hey, I'm all for anything that gets them to the point where their tendons don't snap like old violin strings.

Yes, Duque is right, everyone always arrives in their best shape ever. (Though maybe that's the problem. Spring training is supposed to be about GETTING in shape. If you're already that well tuned, maybe you're bound to overdo.)
