Tennis Express

"I am extremely disappointed and sad to withdraw from the BNP Paribas Open. I was looking forward to playing in Indian Wells very much but unfortunately I won't be able to do so this year,” Krejcikova said.


Krejcikova’s withdrawal means that the tournament will be without the WTA’s top two-ranked players. France’s Alizé Cornet slips into Krejcikova’s spot in the main draw.

Calories in Venison: Examining the True Healthiness of Our Favorite Wild Game Meat


Slices of venison steak on a black table.

Just how healthy is venison? The main reason most of us like to hunt is quite simple: to fill up our freezer with delicious, free range wild game meat. These days food can be expensive, especially any sort of red meat, and particularly beef. Another reason many of us like to hunt is simply because […]

USPTA Partners Revo in Multi-Year Pact

USPTA Partners Revo in Multi-Year Pact

USPTA members will receive discount on Revo sunglasses.
USPTA members can now enjoy a new vision and clarity on court.

The United States Professional Tennis Association (USPTA) announced a multi-year endorsement pact with Revo as the “Official Performance Eyewear” of the USPTA.

Serena: I'd Probably be in Jail for Zverev Tirade

Revo was founded in 1985 when NASA Astrophysicist and Optical Engineer Dr. Mitch Ruda was working on a project for NASA when he had a simple idea. What if we used the coatings that protect satellites to shield our eyes from the sun?

Dr. Ruda uses the NASA-developed protective coatings that protect satellite portholes from space radiation on a pair of sunglasses to protect the eye. With this revolutionary finding, Revo is born.

Tennis Express

“In recent years, those of us in the tennis-teaching profession have come to realize the importance of protecting our skin from the relentless exposure to the sun due to the long-term detrimental effects,” says John Embree, USPTA CEO. “However, many of us don’t think about protecting our priceless gift of sight from the harm that can come from excessive exposure to the sun’s damaging UV rays.

"Revo sunglasses feature NASA Light Management System™ technology to manage the entire light spectrum, providing optimum vision in all conditions. Good helpful light is allowed in and enhanced, while harmful light is blocked.”

USPTA members can receive a discount on Revo sunglasses through this partnership.

“As a lifelong tennis player, without realizing it, the USPTA pros taught me everything I know about tennis which makes me personally so excited to have Revo partner with USPTA. I’m honored that we can now officially share our industry-leading technology with the USPTA and the tennis world as a whole,” says Cliff Robinson, Revo CEO. “Our sunglasses are already in many tennis pro shops and utilized by tennis professionals worldwide. Now, even more USPTA Professionals and tennis fans in general will learn about our best-in-class protection and performance.”

Using Effective Encryption, by ShepherdFarmerGeek

So much has been written by greater minds than mine about secure communication in a crisis. There are many publicly available resources and information on SurvivalBlog and elsewhere. Shifting letters in a message a certain number of characters is nothing new (Caesar Cipher, used in the last century B.C.). Using the SAME count to shift letters is a guaranteed way to have your encryption broken. Using different numbers to shift each letter in a message (a One Time Pad) – when your recipient has the same list of numbers to decrypt the message – is theoretically unbreakable, if you do …
