Golf is a game played on a large open-air course, in which a small hard ball is struck with a club into a series of small holes in the ground. The object being to use the fewest possible strokes to complete the course. Golf began around 1457 when King James ll of Scotland banned Golf and football because he wanted people to focus on archery. The first major item you need to play golf is a golf ball. Some of the first golf balls were made entirely of hardwood, such as beech and box trees. These balls appeared during the 15th century and remained in use until the 17th century. Of course, a typical wooden golf ball would only last for a few games before it needed to be replaced. An alternative type of golf ball, known as a feathery, also appeared around the era of the wooden ball. A feathery was basically a leather pouch filled with chicken or goose feathers. Due to the extensive labor and materials required, a single feathery ball would often cost the modern-day equivalent of $10-$20. Today we now use many materials into making golf balls, but the majority can be broken down into three categories: rubbers, ionomers and urethanes. The second major item you need is a club. In the earliest days of golf, players initially carved their own clubs from wood. They soon turned to skilled craftsmen to produce competitive equipment. Club heads were made from tough wood such as beech, holly, pear and apple. Shafts were made from ash or hazel. The head was connected to the shaft using a splint and…

Japan as we know it today is a group of islands located in the eastern part of Asia. While it is now a highly populated island filled with large cities, this was not always the case. The earliest people known to live on the islands of Japan were nomadic hunters from northeast Asia. These hunters settled on the islands as early as 35,000 B.C. and are considered the Paleolithic people of Japan. During this time, Japan was connected to Korea and Siberia by a land bridge that had formed when the seas receded after the ice ages. When the last ice age ended, the ice caps melted and the sea levels rose, once again separating the islands of Japan from the main land. This gave birth to the one of the earliest periods of Japan known as the Jomon Period.…
With the Americans leading 9-6 ½ and needing only 7 ½ more points on the final day to win their first Ryder Cup since 1999, the event still only managed to draw an unimpressive 3.3 rating on NBC. While the ratings were up 22% from 2006 standards, when the US players went across the pond, they were slightly higher than what WWE wrestling show draws on a weekly basis. The ratings look even more anemic (3.3 vs 13.5) when compared to the NFL football game that the Ryder Cup was pitted against. For an event that is hyped much like a major, it really failed to deliver viewers.…

Since I have decided to become a better volleyball player, I will condition and study the sport. First, every day I will go to the gym, run for fifteen minutes to help with my endurance and lift weights every other day, such as squatting and deadlifting. By going to the gym, it will help me to keep up with my more advanced volleyball friends during long rallies and long games. In order to help with my volleyball skills, I plan on going to local San Jose open gyms. At the open gyms, I will focus on hustling so that every time I pass the ball I am behind it. While passing I will be in a low squat on the balls of my feet, my shoulders shrugged, and eyes always on the volleyball. When I am setting I will still be on the balls of my feet, knees…
