Its a sport that is not the most talked about but a sport where hard work beats talent. In this article Kimmelman explains how women have improved themselves over the years and how that change has affected the sport of tennis. Venus and Serena ultimately set the high expectation point for any female athlete playing tennis. They are the michael jordan of basketball, the babe ruth of baseball. They are the ones that many people emphasize. These 2 girls prepared themselves with vigorous training and practice to become where they are at today.Such as lifting doing speed drills and agility. Now many young tennis players are doing the same so one day they could be the one who everyone looks up to. To be the best you have to do what others don’t they say. This means preparing yourself and your body for doing beyond and extra of what is expected. It comes down to how bad you want it. In today's women tennis women have never hit harder not only because of improved equipment, cause of the improvement of training and preparation for the game. “For example Venus and Serena who are both athletically fit have defined the game around power.” I a personally agree with this statement. These two woman are phenomenal. They are both tall with great reach serena standing at 5’9 and venus at 6’1. On top of that they hit the the ball harder than any women in tennis and maybe even...

...During the 1600's, people in the American colonies lived in very distinctive societies. While some colonists led hard lives, others were healthy and prosperous. The two groups who showed these differences were the colonists of the New England and Chesapeake Bay areas. The differentiating characteristics among the Chesapeake and New England colonies developed due to economy, religion, and motives for colonial expansion. The colonists of the New England area possessed a very happy and healthy life. This high way of living was due in part to better farming, a healthier environment, and a high rate of production because of more factories. The colonists of the Chesapeake Bay region, on the other hand, led harder lives compared to that of the colonists of New England. The Chesapeake Bay had an unhealthy environment, bad eating diets, and intolerable labor. The colonists had different reasons for settling in these two distinct regions. The New England region was a more religiously strict yet diverse area compared to that of the Chesapeake Bay. The development of religion in the two regions came from separate roots. After Henry VIII and the Roman Catholic Church broke away from each other, a new group of English reformers was created called the Puritans. The Puritans came from protestant backgrounds, after being influenced by Calvinistic ideas. When their reforms were thwarted by King James I of England, they fled to the New World in what is now known as the "Great Migration". The Puritans...

...Softball has always been very important to me family. My mom played in college and both of my parents played when I was growing up. My sister and I both started around the age of twelve and played all throughout high school. I decided to go a step further like my mom and play in college. I was so excited to meet all kinds of new people and play the game we all love, but I never thought it would be as challenging as it has been for me this year. Softball is a big part of my life and who I am, but should I have to be as dedicated as my coaches make me be? I am a freshmen at American River this year I am attending school and playing softball. When I decided to play softball I new it was going to be a lot of time and hard work. But what I did not realize was all of the things I was going to give up. As a team we have six days straight of softball a week and someday it will be practice which are at least three hours. Also the days we do not have practice we have two games a day. As players we are always very tired from the long days and many of us think that if we had less time at softball, we would work harder while we were there. Although, I do understand the coaches logic for having us play that much because the more practice we get the better we will be when it comes game time. When the beginning of the season started my parents were going...

...studies something. When I was young, I was told that hard work is the key to success. Get all the knowledge I can and gain wisdom with life experiences. I have found out over the years that is exactly what I need to become a successful student. Even though not everything is under your control. I will explain how hard work, sacrifice and staying positive will help others be successful in school. The first and foremost important quality of student success is hard work. We cannot have good results without effort. People dream of becoming an NFL superstar or an MVP in the NBA. But none of those players achieved greatness without years of hard work and practice. People must work hard to gain skills and maintain them. Without hard work and practice, the chance of people becoming successful at something is very slim. I don’t hear many stories of people that don’t put forth the effort to achieve their goals, but there are millions of success stories of how people gained success through hard work. My sister for instance, she always had a very hard time with math. So every night she would come home, and study for hours trying to figure out the problems. With her hard work she figured out how to do all of her homework, and received an A in the class The next quality is sacrifice. Choosing to study does require a lot of sacrifice. Many students give up on going to the club or spending all night playing online video games to study. It’s very hard to sacrifice my play time to study. I can’t count...

...short story involves hard work. For example, the mother in “Everyday Use” could kill and clean a hog (50). She was a single parent who took care of two kids. Knowing that their house had burned she worked very hard to get a new one. This is similar like my family because my mother is a single parent who takes care of four children. Another example, of hard work from the story is that the daughter, Dee graduated from high school and went off to college. She wanted to wear a organdy dress to her graduation (53). For some people maybe graduating from high school might not seem like hard work, but everyone has their opinions. You actually have to put the work and effort into the school work if you want to graduate from high school and go to a good college. I haven’t graduated from high school yet, but to me I am working hard to graduate. Finally , Maggie and her mother swept up hard clay in the yard (50). In the story they compared it to cleaning a living room. Cleaning something doesn’t necessarily mean that its hard work. It just depends on what you are cleaning like the mother cleaned up the dishes and she also cleaned the inside of animal. Considering that cleaning the inside of an animal could be hard work. My mother has cleaned out a cow before, but that is very rare. I actually clean the leaves out in the year it is very hard work for me, especially in the fall when you have...

...Hard Rock Café Case Study GSCM-206 Managing Supply Operations 1. Identify the strategy changes that have taken place at Hard Rock Café since its founding in 1971. Hard Rock Café is a globally recognized brand. Since its founding in 1971, Hard Rock Café has made continuous improvements and upgrades to bring the brand to where it is today, changing with the times and markets. Hard Rock started as a London Café serving classic “American” food and eventually became a “theme” restaurant chain selling memorabilia and souvenirs in tourist destinations. From there the company transformed by adding stores, upgrading menus, moving to places that were not, at the time, tourist destinations, and most effective of all, they began playing live music and hosting rock concerts, adding to the overall customer experience. Hard Rock changed dining by making it an “experience”, an event that includes a unique experience not duplicated anywhere else. To create this unique experience, Hard Rock has invested millions of dollars into creating an acoustic and visual scenario for their customers. They also introduced into their “experience” concept their own brand merchandise, souvenirs and products, which is unique to each location which in turn provides a greater income to the company. Hard Rock is known for its museum-worthy, and quite extensive amount of Rock N’ Roll memorabilia and merchandise. Today, its memorabilia collection is estimated to be worth approximately...

...data is stored and processed sequentially. For example, a tape contains information regarding students of a school, to look student’s number 100’s information, the computer will have to start with student number 1 and then go pass 2, 3, 4 and so on until it comes to 100. This method is quite simple than other methods, but it is very slow (more time for searching data) & very suitable for bills & payroll applications. Direct Access Method – This is also known as random access, it means the computer can go directly to the location where the data is stored that the user wants. The most common direct access devices are magnetic disc & optical disc. In these devices, the data is stored as sequentially numbered blocks. Thus one can access block 12, then block 78, then block 5 & so on. This method is ideal for applications like airline reservation system or computer –based directory assistance operations Secondary Storage Device | Access Method | Magnetic tape | Sequential accessAccess time is slower than hard drive | Magnetic Disk | Floppy disk | Direct accessAccess time is very slow | | Hard disk | Direct accessAccess time is very fast ( currently the...

Many people have told me that losing information during everyday work is so natural that they do not even perceive it as real risk any more. We often lose data simply because we do not have proper workflow procedures and backup strategies. More efficient procedures for saving our work and making backups regularly will definitely save a lot of time for us. 2.

Athletes average about fifty thousand dollars for just playing a game. It is very unfair but they earn it through what they go through to get as good as they are. Professional athletes and entertainers should earn that amount of money because of all the hard work, sacrifice, and disencouragement from the public. First of all, professional athletes and entertainers work very hard.
