High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Tennis Court Oathwas a pivotal event during the French Revolution. The Oath was a pledge signed by 576 out of the 577 members from the Third Estate and a few members of the First Estate during a meeting of the Estates-General on 20 June 1789 in a tennis court building near the Palace of Versailles.On 17 June 1789 this group, led by Honoré Gabriel Riqueti, began to call themselves the National Assembly. On the morning of 20 June the deputies were shocked to discover that the doors to their chamber were locked and guarded by soldiers. Immediately fearing the worst and anxious that a royal coup by King Louis XVI was imminent, the deputies congregated in a nearby indoor real tennis court where they took a solemn collective oath "never to separate, and to meet wherever circumstances demand, until the constitution of the kingdom is established and affirmed on solid foundations." ...

Product Description
Both Venus Williams and her sister, Serena, began tennis training as preschoolers. Their father, Richard, had already given their older sisters a try at tennis. Yetunde, Isha, and Lyndrea eventually found success in other areas, but tennis was not for them. Venus was different. From the very first time her father took her to play, she loved the sport. Richard Williams dreamed of tennis stardom for his daughter Venus. He promised her, and everyone else who would listen, that one day she would be the number one female tennis player. In February of 2002, those dreams came true. Venus was ranked number one in the WTA Tour rankings. But her number one ranking was short-lived when, in July 2002, her sister Serena kept her from winning her third-straight Wimbledon and took over her spot as number one in the world. ... Read more

Purchase includes a free trial membership in the publisher's book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt: The Spain Davis Cup team represents Spain in Davis Cup tennis competition and are governed by the Real Federación Española de Tenis, presided over by José Luis Escañuela. Spain has won the Davis Cup four times (2000, 2004, 2008 and 2009), and finished as runner-up three times (1965, 1967, 2003). As of 2009, Spain has competed in the World Group for 13 consecutive years, and for 24 of the last 25 years, which make it historically one of the most powerful countries in the tennis world. Spain defeated the Czech Republic in the 2009 final, held for the second time in Barcelona, by a score of 5-0 to claim their second consecutive title, and the fourth in ten years. Spain competed in its first Davis Cup in 1921 but didn't reach the final round until 1965, when the team led by Jaime Bartroli lost to Australia. They reached the final again two years later but though they had great players such as Manuel Santana and Manuel Orantes, Spain lost against Roy Emerson and company again. Spanish fans had to wait 33 years in 2000, to see their team play another Davis Cup final, but this time the Spanish team defeated the Australians in Barcelona with Juan Carlos Ferrero as national hero. But Lleyton Hewitt, who had been defeated by Ferrero three years before, had his revenge very soon, when Spain lost to Australia again in 2003. The following year, Spain reached the final once again. It was played in Seville and for the first time ever, they didn't have to play against Australia. Their opponents were the United States, and thanks to great performances from Carlos Moya and an 18-year-old Rafael Nadal, Spain managed to win their second Davis Cup...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=9663202 ...

Product Description
This tour de force in experimental robotics paves the way toward understanding dynamic environments in vision and robotics. It describes the first robot able to play, and even beat, human ping-pong players.

Constructing a machine to play ping-pong was proposed years ago as a particularly difficult problem requiring fast, accurate sensing and actuation, and the intelligence to play the game. The research reported here began as a series of experiments in building a true real-time vision system. The ping-pong machine incorporates sensor and processing techniques as well as the techniques needed to intelligently plan the robot's response in the fraction of a second available. it thrives on a constant stream of new data. Subjectively evaluating and improving its motion plan as the data arrives, it presages future robot systems with many joints and sensors that must do the same, no matter what the task.
