One program that stands out in this early period — both for its atypical subject matter and its subsequent notoriety in a series of patent lawsuits — is Tennis for Two (1958), created by physicist William Higinbotham to entertain guests at the annual visitor's day held by the Brookhaven National Laboratory. This program displayed a tennis court in side view on an oscilloscope and allowed two players to volley a ball using box-shaped controllers equipped with a knob for trajectory and a button for hitting the ball. Displayed for two seasons at Brookhaven, Tennis for Two proved popular with the public, but was ultimately dismantled so its parts could be re-purposed for other tasks. Higinbotham never considered adapting the successful game into…
Most people believe tennis player were introverted/quiet people but some of the matches I went to involved some of the players being very vocal. One match in particular involves a player who would scream every time he hit a bad shot and he would always refer to himself in the third person. He would also argue with his coach every time that he went to talk to him. Another match that I went to involved a player who always screamed at himself also. He would throw his hat down when he made bad shots and when he was really angry he wouldn't stop to drink water when they were changing sides.…

After doing their daily routine, the teacher starts the day with some calendar lessons. Student EA’s were asked to prepare the centers or activity. Each center has different types of activity.…

My second example regarding alpha males is also tennis-related (sorry!). When I was growing up I trained at the OAC (Ottawa Athletic Club) and my coach was named Tony Roth. For many decades, he’s been the director at the OAC and has coached pros such a Milos Raonic who is making the Canadian tennis fans very proud. He was a very popular and was known as a succeeding coach who was also the author of “Noble Tennis: The Wisdom of Sport”.…

Anywhere I went , I’d get stared at because of my height and weight.…

I need my brain to know when to move. When playing volleyball, I need to be able to move around in order to get to where the ball had been hit. In order to do this my brain uses neurons to transmit signals to my body that allows me to make quick motions. Sensory neurons send messages from my muscles and sensory organs, like my eyes and ears, to my brain and spinal cord. My brain then processes that message and sends a response back to my muscles via motor neurons.…
