Ohio State just put the finishing touches on the best recruiting class in program history, but the staff can't afford to rest on their laurels if the Buckeyes are going to bring on another elite class in 2019.
"[We'll] toast tonight and move on to next year's class," head coach Urban Meyer said on National Signing Day when asked about how the Buckeyes would celebrate their second-ranked haul. "That's about all you do."
Ohio State holds only one commitment at the moment in West Virginia four-star offensive tackle Doug Nester, who pledged his services to the staff in early August. It's a far cry from Georgia's top-ranked haul, as the Bulldogs already have seven pledges. But with 2018 now in the rear view mirror, the Buckeyes will surely turn up the heat on the current class sooner rather than later.
So, who are some of Ohio State's top targets for the Class of 2019? While it's still too early to project the number of players the Buckeyes will add this cycle — especially considering they're already four over the NCAA-mandated scholarship limit and a number of players will declare for the NFL Draft or leave the program unexpectedly by the time National Signing Day rolls around next year — we've broken it down by top targets at each position instead.
So without further ado...
After all of the drama last cycle surrounding Emory Jones' recruitment, Ohio State is taking its time in finding a quarterback to lead the 2019 recruiting class.
Tisdale was stellar in his only season as a starter and loves everything the Buckeyes have to offer, but he's not planning to make a decision until the summer. His official visit in the spring will give us a better indication of where things stand between the two sides.
OTHER NAMES TO WATCH: Kansas four-star Graham Mertz, North Carolina four-star Sam Howell, Oregon four-star Michael Johnson Jr. and Iowa four-star Max Duggan
Ohio State signed three running backs this cycle, so a loaded depth chart — that would still include J.K. Dobbins — might be a cause for concern for top prospects.
Cain is talented and confident enough to feel as if he can win the job as a true freshman. He's one of the most sought-after players in the country, though, so the Buckeyes will have to compete with the home-state Longhorns (he transferred to IMG last summer) and a host of other elite programs in order to land his pledge.
OTHER NAMES TO WATCH: Virginia four-star Devyn Ford, Indiana four-star Sampson James and Florida four-star Kenny McIntosh
With six returning starters, playing time won't come easy for Ohio State's four incoming freshmen wide receivers. But with the potential for a mass exodus to the National Football League one year from now, the Buckeyes will have to stock up at the position once again in 2019.
Connections could play a key role at the position, as Wease is the teammate of the aforementioned Tisdale and Lake Travis four-star Garrett Wilson — a Dublin, Ohio, native — is the former teammate of quarterback signee Matthew Baldwin. It would be cool to see those connections continue at the next level
OTHER NAMES TO WATCH: Indiana four-star David Bell and Tennessee four-stars Lance Wilhoite and Trey Knox
After landing the nation's top-ranked tight end last cycle in four-star Jeremy Ruckert, tight end isn't really a priority in 2019. And while I expect him to start as a true freshman, Ohio State will likely sign at least one player at the position in hopes of providing depth moving forward.
Four-star Ryland Goede should be at the top of the list, but he's a life-long Georgia fan and pledged his services to the Bulldogs earlier this week. A recent offer went out to Arkansas legacy Hudson Henry, but he's certain to end up with the Razorbacks, so that leaves Zipperer as the highest-rated tight end with an offer.
OTHER NAMES TO WATCH: California four-star Isaiah Foskey and Fairfield three-star Erick All
Even after landing commitment on National Signing Day from five-star Nicholas Petit-Frere, the overall lack of depth at the offensive tackle position remains an issue for Ohio State. There's no doubt addressing that issue is the staff's highest priority.
With the above-mentioned Nester in the fold, the Buckeyes are off to a strong start. Pairing him with a fellow West Virginian in Wright — who has been to campus numerous times and become close with offensive line coach Greg Studrawa — and Mentor four-star Ryan Jacoby would make for a stellar haul.
OTHER NAMES TO WATCH: Cincinnati Anderson four-star guard Zeke Correll, Florida four-star tackle Michael Tarquin, Georgia four-star tackle Harry Miller and Rhode Island four-star tackle Xavier Truss
Harrison is without a doubt Ohio State's top target for the 2019 recruiting cycle, as he's not only one of the best prospects in the country, but plays a position of great need and lives right up the Olentangy River from campus.
If you're afraid all of that too closely resembles the recruitment of Fairfield five-star offensive tackle Jackson Carman from one year ago, don't be.
Harrison more closely resembles Petit-Frere in that he wants to thoroughly evaluate everything and take his time with a decision. And unlike Carman, he also doesn't take issue with fans assuming he's going to end up with the Buckeyes.
OTHER NAMES TO WATCH: Mentor four-star end Noah Potter, Cincinnati Walnut Hills four-star tackle Jowon Briggs, Virginia four-star end Brandon Smith, Tennessee four-star end Ani Izuchukwu and Kansas four-star end Marcus Hicks
Every time Stover steps on campus, there's a great chance he commits to Ohio State. After all, the Buckeyes are without a doubt the established leader in his recruitment.
Much like Harrison, though, Stover has repeatedly said he wants to enjoy the process and not rush into a decision. He'll take a few official visits this spring — with Michigan, Notre Dame, Oklahoma and Penn State all pushing hard — but it's honestly difficult to envision him anywhere other than Columbus when it's all said and done.
OTHER NAMES TO WATCH: Maryland four-star Shane Lee, Tennessee four-star Kane Patterson and Michigan three-star Lance Dixon
One year after going into Oklahoma for the first time in program history and stealing four-star safety Josh Proctor from under the Sooners' nose, Ohio State is looking to do the same with Hill.
His position on this list might come as a surprise, but Hill is built in a similar mold and has the exact same game-breaking ability as Proctor. In fact, they were both named first-team all-state last season.
Hill has never been to campus, though he's planning an official visit for the spring. If he chooses to visit for the Spring Game, for example, it's not hard to envision him getting wrapped up in the atmosphere and making the call that weekend. Sound familiar?
OTHER NAMES TO WATCH: Virginia Beach four-star cornerback Sheridan Jones, Georgia four-star safety Jaylen McCollough, Tennessee four-star corner Woodi Washington, St. Thomas Aquinas four-star Jaden Davis and Pennsylvania three-star M.J. Devonshire
Though he's listed as an athlete by the various recruiting services, Ohio State is recruiting Hickman as a safety. He's been to campus five times in the last year and has grown a strong bond with defensive coordinator and area recruiter Greg Schiano in that time.
Another trip to campus, quite possibly for the Spring Game in April, could end his recruitment altogether.
OTHER NAMES TO WATCH: Mater Dei five-star Horace "Bru" McCoy (receiver), St. Louis five-star Isaiah Williams (H-Back), Georgia four-stars Steele Chambers (H-Back) and Jaylin Simpson (safety)

Yesterday, we had a quick sandwich at Farmer Boy's, and then went to a Dungeonmaster production meeting with all of the co-producers, the chieftain of the backstage, me, and a few cast members including two of the new ones. Since this will be a season one show longer, there was some significant planning to do, and it turns out that the arc sounds WONDERFUL!!! I can't wait until the season starts! In addition, it looks like The Dungeonmaster Gauntlet will be revived, and on the weekend of the 21st and 22nd, we're going to host a two-day costume workshop at our home, primarily for cast and audience to work on costumes for use at the show, but for anyone who wants to put something together to wear when you're in the mood.
From there, we stopped in Sunland to visit with David, who was in from Texas at his daughter Ashley's house. It was nice to sit and chat.
I was taken down a peg by forestcats for being obviously exhausted. Therefore, I went to bed early, last night. I hope it helps.

Rather than focus on obtaining followers, it is better to spend your time creating relationships with people. Where are you seeing the fastest movement in the SERP's? Have you tried eating food grown in healthy soil naturally, like they produce at organic local groceries ? Because the search engines are always making improvements, the traffic going to sites from searches is going to be more qualified and likely to convert / buy. In the early days of SEO, it was the quantity, not quality of links that mattered. "Link building" consisted of mass spamming and buying of links, online directory submissions, building bad links, mass commenting on sites and blogs and using automated link bait. Do you get good customer responses when you're searching for SEO Expert ? Co-branding involves some risk.
Propagation of relevance using meta tags
Your titles need to hook people at first glance. Regular cleaning with a soft damp cloth and the Geberit Aquaclean Mera cleaning agent, is recommended to keep the shower toilet in good condition. Any kind of activity which you plans to do for your business, you would like to see some kind of return coming out of it. Generally, if you're looking for fast results, you'll want to choose long-tail keywords with a low competition rating; these are going to be your fastest road to rankings, but keep in mind high rankings here won't always send much traffic your way; it depends on search volume for each keyword. Studies have shown that storytelling in business really works.t With so many SEO ninjas, gurus, and wizards out there, it can be difficult to find a firm you can trust and work with. Keep in mind that you must write for your readers, and not for Google's spiders. Don't do keyword stuffing.
Fresh ideas on how to improve your analytics
Once upon a time, marketers focused on strategizing which keywords to place across their web presence in order to increase their rankings in a search engine results page (SERP). Without these amenities, for instance, roads, it would be impossible for new people and businesses to get to the city's center or suburb for work, rest, entertainment, education, and all the other wonderful things you can expect in a city. In a Searchmetrics 2016 study into ranking factors, there was an "extremely high" correlation between social signals and Google rankings. However, this couldn't be accredited to the algorithm, but rather to the "overlap between brand websites performing strongly in social networks and being allocated top positions by Google." SEO in Goole is here. Many people examine their success to establish the bottlenecks preventing them from achieving preset objectives. A good rule of thumb to keep on top of your SEO strategy is to research the tactics used by your competitors.
Your marketing strategy could use a facelift - consider including mobile search to adhere to best practise SEO principles
Gaz Hall, an SEO Consultant from SEO York, had the following to say: "Pay-Per-Click advertisements are a good method to optimize keyword approach which can be utilized to refine keywords for the progressing search engine optimization advertising technique.Companies are prone to negative comments and reviews on online platforms." Search engine algorithms are based on a system of positive and negative weights or ranking factors as designed by the search engine's engineers or architects. Type in your keyphrases. At least look at the first page (the top 10) and see what everyone else has in their description tags. Does it look like they're being pulled from the copy on their pages? Look for patterns in the types of publishers and keywords your competitor is targeting. Without proper image optimization, you're wasting a valuable SEO asset.
How to focus on LSI
But the process of manually going out solely to build links pointing back to your site is not just outdated-it's downright dangerous thanks to the new Penguin updates, which can now detect "manipulative link building" in more sophisticated ways than ever. Google could penalize sites right away with bad links no matter how popular the site has gotten on the search engines. This means when you're doing SEO, you can't just use traditional SEO. But most businesses don't realize just how much you can do with them. Keyword page density is ameasure of the relative frequency of the word in the text expressed as a percentage. For example, if a specific word is used 5 times on a page containing 100 words, the keyword density is 5%. If the density of a keyword is too low, the search engine will not pay much attention to it.
Always Celebrate Major Company Events with a Press Release
Competitive research can also help you understand the general course of your opponents' SEO strategies, so you can adjust your own to more appropriately combat them. Ranking higher for various keywords usually results in much higher traffic volumes coming to your website, which in turn increases the total number of sales that are generated by your online marketing efforts. Keyword Tool.io - Now, Keyword Tool.io might be an extremely simple and rudimentary tool, but it works on a good premise. Inbound marketing, content marketing, and SEO have slowly morphed into one interchangeable, composite strategy. Frames verses No Frames.
Your Customers are searching their query in different ways
As you might suspect, there are a couple of problems with this approach as well. Email further supplements an integrated program using various tactics.

Nintendo Switch: Save Data Can't be Backed Up Anywhere
I don't know about others, but I tend to back up my save files every now and again. It's a habit I developed over the years due to random system errors, or corrupt save files, that have popped up over the years. You can never predict what will happen on your gaming console, and it's just a comfort to know all my hard effort won't be lost. That said, it seems like the Nintendo Switch won't be offering me that comfort as the system won't allow you to back up your save files at all.
The companies website explains their storage system, and it seems rather lacking. Their online FAQ states that our data "cannot be saved or copied to a microSD card". Even worse than that, once the internal storage fills up you must delete some of your hard fought games to find space for your new games.
This wouldn't be so bad, if the internal storage wasn't 32GB. A quarter of which is taken up by the Operating System – nice going there Nintendo. It's also a confusing decision made by Nintendo, as their previous systems allowed not only a transfer of data but saved data as well. However the Switch only allows data management in one way – the delete the file and say goodbye type of way.
For those of you who might think this is a weird joke, Nintendo itself told Kotaku that ""At this time, it is not possible to transfer save data from one Nintendo Switch system to another". This is a completely different take to data management in terms of other consoles. All of which allow for a much easier time in terms of storage means.
If, and how, Nintendo intends to remedy this remains to be seen. That said, be careful with your console and save files. One loose click, one bad drop, anything that might risk your save files will set you back to the beginning of your favourite game.
Let us know in the comment's on what you think on this lack of storage for the Switch.

When is the 2020 French Open?
The 2020 French Open takes place from 27 September-11 October.
The French Open usually takes place in the last week of May and the first week of July, and unlike the other three majors, chooses to begin main-draw play on a Sunday, playing the first round over three days instead of two.
Due to the unprecedented global health crisis, however, the 2020 French Open will take place in the autumn instead and be played in front of a limited spectator capacity (around 60% of Roland Garros's usual allowance).
French Open Players 2020
The biggest names in tennis return to Paris, including 12-time champion Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic, Serena Williams and Simona Halep, for the historic clay-court Grand Slam, live from Roland Garros between 27 September-11 October.

Rafael Nadal
The King of Clay returns to Roland Garros in 2019 with a jaw-dropping 93-2 record at the French Open and on a quest for a record-extending 13th title.
Nadal once more saw off all challengers at the French Open in 2019 when he defeated Dominic Thiem in the final to bring his total of Roland Garros titles to 12, and went on to increase his overall Grand Slam title haul to 19 when he won the US Open as well, reclaiming the world no. 1 ranking to boot.
Novak Djokovic retook the top spot in the rankings in early 2020 after Nadal fell to Thiem in the Australian Open quarterfinals, and Nadal withdrew from the US Open to concentrate on clay. But Nadal has never won the French Open when he comes in without winning a clay-court title in the run-up, and his only chance to do so came and went when he lost to Diego Schwartzman in the quarterfinals of the Rome Masters.
A 13th French Open title would tie Roger Federer's all-time record of 20 Grand Slam titles – will we see another instalment of Rafa's unparalleled rule at Roland Garros?
Serena Williams
Since winning the title in 2015 and finishing runner-up in 2016, Serena hasn't had the best results at Roland Garros, missing the 2017 tournament and failing to make it past the R16 in her last two appearances, withdrawing last year with injury in the third round.
The questions about whether Williams's major-winning days are behind her are beginning to mount after the American suffered a surprise defeat to Wang Qiang in the third round of the Australian Open. When she returned after shutdown, Williams reached the semifinals of the US Open, battling through three-set clashes with Sloane Stephens, Maria Sakkari and Tsvetana Pironkova, only to fall to Victoria Azarenka. The 23-time Grand Slam champion has not played a match on clay in the run-up to the French Open – will that hurt her chances?
Novak Djokovic
One of just three men not named Rafael Nadal to have got his hands on the Coupe des Mousquetaires since Rafa began his reign in 2005, Djokovic completed a career Grand Slam when he won Roland Garros in 2016.
The Serb hasn't made it back to the final since, losing at the quarterfinal stage in 2017-18 and defeated by Dominic Thiem in five sets in the semifinals in 2019, but he will still be on the very short list of players who can potentially challenge Nadal on his way to a thirteenth French Open crown.
Djokovic brought his overall Grand Slam title haul to 17, closing in on Nadal (19) and Federer (20), when he won his eighth Australian Open title in January, defeating Thiem in a five-set thriller in the final. The victory saw Djokovic reclaim the world no. 1 ranking and become the third man (after Nadal at Roland Garros and Federer at Wimbledon) to win eight or more titles at the same major.
Djokovic's US Open campaign ended in a shock fourth-round default, but he bounced back strongly by winning the Rome Masters, defeating Diego Schwartzman in the final and taking the lead in the all-time Masters 1000 Series title leader stakes with a 36th title.

Simona Halep
After finishing runner-up at the French Open in 2017, Halep finally captured her maiden major title at Roland Garros the following year, defeating Sloane Stephens in the final.
The Romanian suffered a disappointing quarter-final loss to rising star Amanda Anisimova in 2019, but bounced back in perfect fashion to claim her second Grand Slam at Wimbledon.
Reunited with coach Darren Cahill, Halep started her 2020 season by reaching the semifinals of the Australian Open and she comes into the French Open on a 14-match winning streak. Ten straight wins on clay have seen her capture the Prague Open title and the prestigious Internazionali BNL d'Italia in Rome, where she beat Garbine Muguruza and Karolina Pliskova to underline her status as French Open favourite.
Dominic Thiem
The 'Prince of Clay' has been making significant inroads at Roland Garros over the last couple of years, reaching his first Grand Slam finals in 2018 and 2019, but Nadal has proved too tough to overcome.
However, Thiem made great strides on hard courts in 2019 and began 2020 by reaching the final of the Australian Open, defeating Nadal in the quarterfinals and Alexander Zverev in the semifinals and leading Djokovic by two sets to one before succumbing in five sets. The Austrian, now in his prime at 27, established himself as the best active player yet to win a major, and broke into the ranks of Grand Slam champions at the US Open when he outlasted Alexander Zverev in a gruelling five-set final.
Will Thiem be rattled by winning his first major, or liberated by it? The answer to that question could determine the destination of the Coupe des Mousquetaires in 2020 …
Karolina Pliskova
The Czech is always in the conversation at the biggest tournaments in the world, despite failing to secure a Grand Slam title so far in her career. Pliskova has improved her consistency and finished no. 2 in the world in 2019, but sometimes her best tennis deserted her in the majors. Can she step up when it matters most in 2020?
The 'ace queen' has proved that her big-serving power tennis can be effective on clay, winning the Porsche Tennis Grand Prix in Stuttgart in 2018 and the Internazionali BNL d'Italia in Rome in 2019 as well as reaching the semifinals of the French Open in 2017. After a disappointing US swing, Pliskova bounced back with an impressive run in Rome, making it back to the final with wins over Elise Mertens and 2019 French Open runner-up Marketa Vondrousova. She was forced to retire in the final due to a thigh injury, but if she recovers from that swiftly, the Czech should be among those expected to make a deep run at Roland Garros.
Stefanos Tsitsipas
One of the favourites among the younger generation to be the first to break through and win a Grand Slam, Greece's Tsitsipas was narrowly defeated by Stan Wawrinka in the men's match of Roland Garros 2019, a five-set thriller.
Tsitsipas, a semifinalist at the Australian Open in 2019, claimed his biggest title so far when he beat Roger Federer and Thiem back-to-back to win the Nitto ATP Finals at the end of last season. He made a bright start to 2020 with a title in Marseille followed by a run to the final in Dubai, and has been prominent in exhibition tennis during the sport's shutdown to keep his skills sharp.
Garbine Muguruza
After a sub-par couple of years, Muguruza has returned to the Grand Slam contender conversation when she made a resurgent run to the final of the Australian Open in January.
Now reunited with Conchita Martinez, the 2016 French Open champion also reached the semifinals of the Internazionali BNL d'Italia in the run-up to Roland Garros, and she has reached the last 16 or better at the French Open on every appearance for the past six years.
Daniil Medvedev
One of the biggest stories of the 2019 season, Medvedev now has to prove it wasn't a fluke and back up everything in 2020. The Russian proved how good he can be as he almost came back from the brink in the U.S. Open final against Nadal and his maddening consistency could prove to be very tough to overcome on the clay of Roland Garros.
Medvedev, who went on a roll of reaching six consecutive finals during the late summer and early autumn of 2019 and picked up his first two Masters 1000 Series titles along the way, played well at the Australian Open before bowing out to Stan Wawrinka in the fourth round. On his return from shutdown, Medvedev reached the semifinals of the US Open without dropping a set, but he has struggled to record the same results on clay that he has on hard courts. Still, no one will want to see the infuriating Russian in their path at Roland Garros.
Elina Svitolina
Another player searching for their maiden major title after a few years of being a top 10 mainstay. Svitolina is a bit like Alexander Zverev in the sense she has proven she can beat just about everyone, but can't translate it over to the slams. The Ukrainian has a game built for clay – can Svitolina find the formula for success at Roland Garros in 2020?
A French Open quarterfinalist in 2015 and 2017, Svitolina made back-to-back Grand Slam semifinals at Wimbledon and the US Open in 2019 and claimed consecutive Internazionali BNL d'Italia titles in 2017-18. She should be full of confidence and a real threat when she returns to Roland Garros in 2020.
About The French Open
The second Grand Slam of the year is one of the most gruelling and demanding of the tennis season – if not the most demanding for the men, who must compete in best-of-five set matches for a fortnight on the most endurance-requiring surface in the game.
The French Open – otherwise known as Roland Garros, named after the Stade Roland Garros, where the tournament has been held since 1928 – has a long and complicated history. This has seen the tournament change locations and identities multiple times since its founding in 1891. Before 1925, the tournament was open to members of French tennis clubs only, and named the Championnat de France. Originating as a men's event alone, a women's tournament was added for the first time in 1897 – with doubles tournaments beginning to be added in 1902.
As the Championnat de France, the event changed both location and surface several times over. Initially, it was contested in Puteaux, and played on sand laid out on rubble. In moving on the the Racing Club of France, Paris, it changed surfaces to clay, and remained as such throughout periods of time spent in Bordeaux and Auteuil (Paris).
After a couple more venue changes, the tournament finally came to rest at the Roland Garros stadium in 1928 – the year it officially became a Grand Slam tournament.
The tournament's history can be divided up into three stages: Before 1925 (the French club members only event), 1925-1967, and the Open Era – which is 1968 and beyond. It was only at the beginning of the Open Era that the tournament dropped its title of the 'French Championships' and adopted the major title of the French Open.
In the 1925-1967 era, France's own Henry Cochet won the most editions of the French Open, achieving four (1926, 1928, 1930, 1932). Bjorn Borg of the Open Era bested this record with six titles (1974-75, 1978-81), a tally which nobody expected would be broken. Nevertheless, Rafael Nadal – still an active player – has gone above and beyond with his current all-time record of 12 Roland Garros trophies (2005-08, 2010-14, 2017-19). The Spaniard also holds the record for most consecutive titles won with his five from 2010 to 2014. This also translates into an all-time record, as Frank Parker, Jaroslav Drobny, Tony Trabert and Nicola Pietrangeli of the pre-Open Era only scored two consecutive victories each.
Over with the women, the legendary Suzanne Lenglen won the most titles before the Open Era, triumphing six times (1920-23, 1925-26.) Chris Evert's seven title victories hold the record from 1968 onwards (1974-75, 1979-80, 1983, 1985-86.) Lenglen also holds the pre-Open Era record for most consecutive titles – four – and shares that status with fellow Frenchwoman Jeanne Matthey (1909-12.) In the Open Era, Monica Seles (1990-92) and Justine Henin (2005-07) share the status.
In recent years, the reign of Rafael Nadal, which saw him win nine of ten years between 2005 and 2014 (the exception being 2009 when he suffered a shock defeat to Robin Soderling, creating an opening for Roger Federer to finally complete his career Grand Slam), was suspended by titles for Stan Wawrinka in 2015 and Novak Djokovic in 2016 before Nadal returned in triumph in 2017, capturing 'La Decima' – a tenth title – without dropping a set despite facing Wawrinka in the final. Nadal successfully defended his title in 2018, prevailing for the 11th time with a straight sets win over first-time major finalist Dominic Thiem. Nadal and Thiem would clash for the second year in a row in the 2019 final, and while the Austrian was able to match it with the King of Clay for the first two sets, he couldn't maintain the superhuman level required to beat Nadal at Roland Garros, eventually succumbing in four as the Spaniard collected his 12th French Open title.
On the women's side, recent years have seen Maria Sharapova (2012, 2014) and Serena Williams (2013, 2015) ending a string of one-time champions which included Ana Ivanovic, Svetlana Kuznetsova, Francesca Schiavone and Li Na, while Garbine Muguruza became the first Spanish woman since Arantxa Sanchez Vicario in 1998 to lift the Coupe Suzanne Lenglen when she claimed her maiden Grand Slam title at the 2016 French Open and Latvia's Jelena Ostapenko, just 19 years old, became the first unseeded player in history to win the crown when she captured the title in 2017, defeating Simona Halep in the final.
Halep would bounce back in the 2018 showpiece, finally capturing her maiden Grand Slam title with a come-from-behind win over Sloane Stephens. The Romanian couldn't become the first woman since Justin Henin in 2007 to defend her Roland Garros title, losing in the quarter-finals of her title defence to Amanda Anisimova, with Australian star Ashleigh Barty going on to beat Anisimova in the semis and Marketa Vondrousova in the final to win her first major crown.
In 2020, the French Open showed that despite its reverence for tradition, it is able to adapt to unexpected circumstances. With tennis shut down in mid-March for what turned out to be a lengthy period, the French Open was one of the first tournaments to adapt, taking a risk by rescheduling itself to the autumn.
Roland Garros 2020 will now follow the US Open and the combined clay-court event in Rome, and will be played in front of crowds limited to roughly 60% of the tournament's capacity, with spectators required to wear masks when moving around the grounds.
Why is the French Open so hard to win?
Played on the traditional clay known as terre battue, the French Open has a serious claim to being the biggest physical and mental challenge in tennis. Unlike the skiddy grass at Wimbledon or the hard courts in New York, the crushed brick at Roland Garros means a slower court surface and high-bouncing balls, with contemporary players routinely able to load the ball with topspin, and vicious kick. That, in turn, means longer rallies, with the best in the world able to run each other from side to side in grueling exchanges under the scorching Paris sun.
Physical fitness, power and stamina are vital qualities for success at Roland Garros, but so are variety, tactical awareness and acuity – a well-executed drop shot can have the devastating effect of a big serve on other surfaces.
Also, the clay in Paris does have a tendency to swirl around in the wind, making conditions even more difficult for the players.
It's no surprise that the French Open has been sorting the best from the rest since it was first opened to all amateurs back in 1925. Some of the greatest in tennis history, including Pete Sampras, John McEnroe, Stefan Edberg and Boris Becker, have found the Coupe des Mousquetaires eluding them and, with it, their dream of winning all four majors. Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic both endured years of frustration and multiple experiences of falling short at the final hurdle before completing the career Grand Slam in Paris.
On the other hand, there are those for whom Roland Garros has been the rock on which their greatness was built. Bjorn Borg won the title six times between 1974 and 1981, becoming the most successful player at the French Open in the Open Era – a record decimated when a certain Rafael Nadal came along, winning an incredible 12 titles between 2005 and 2019. Nadal's extraordinary movement and defensive skills have rendered him almost unbeatable on the surface. While defence is a key requirement for success at Roland Garros, it is not the sole requirement. For all of Nadal's defensive genius, the great Spaniard wields one of the most devastating forehands in the sport, and his use of the top-spin high-bouncing forehand to force his opponents back has been a constant feature of his clay-court dominance over the years.
Who are the greatest French Open players?
The great Rafael Nadal is unarguably the greatest human to ever step foot at Roland Garros. Nadal's dominance of the tournament is staggering, with 12 titles and a 93-2 record in the French capital. A teenage Nadal claimed the title in his first attempt in 2005, beating Roger Federer in the semi-finals, and taking out Mariano Puerta in the title match. He would retain the Coupe des Mousquetaires in the next three seasons before Swede Robin Soderling ended his reign in 2009, causing one of the most seismic upsets in Grand Slam history with a four-set victory over the Spaniard in the fourth round.
Nadal came back with a vengeance, claiming an Open Era record five straight titles between 2010 and 2014. The closest man to Nadal in the Open Era was Swed, Bjorn Borg, who wound up with six Roland Garros crowns, including four straight success between 1978 and 1981. Borg's big rival Ivan Lendl won three, so did Mats Wilander and the likeable Brazilian, Gustavo Kuerten.
Prior to the advent of the Open Era, Frenchman Max Decugis won his eight titles before the first World War, while Henri Cochet, one of the Mousquetaires, had five titles.
Chris Evert leads the women's all-time field with seven titles, while Steffi Graf and Suzanne Lenglen, the great Frenchwoman who has one of the main show courts and the women's singles' trophy named after her, are joint second with six crowns. Margaret Court is one of a couple of women with five titles, while modern day French Open great Justin Henin picked up four. Henin and Monica Seles are the only women to win three straight Roland Garros crowns in the Open Era. How about Serena Williams, you ask? Well, the great American has hoisted the Coupe Suzanne Lenglen on three occasions – 2002, 2013 and 2015.

The big day to spoil moms and thank them for everything they do is nearly here. And that means we all have shopping to do. Whether you need a gift for your own mom or grandma, a friend or sister who is a mom, or you have the very important job of spoiling your kids' mom, I have some ideas for you from the Groupon's Mother's Day Gift Shop that are sure to please.
An Out Of This World Groupon Gift Idea
We have friends who moved to the area less than a year ago, and in that time they have been great explorers visiting local places that my husband and I have talked for years about going with the kids. They are true adventures. So when thinking about their Christmas gift we knew it had to be a family experience.
Groupon Gifts For Grandparents
I believe parents are among the hardest people to shop for. How do you decide what to give the people who have given you the most, the people who also happen to seemingly have everything they need? When it comes to shopping for my parents and my in-laws the pressure is on to find a suitable gift that is thoughtful, useful and special.
Creating Memories With A Gift From Groupon
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Groupon Gift Shop. All opinions are 100% mine. I count myself lucky to have good friends. But I admit that I often allow myself to get too busy to take the time to just hang out with them. (Why is it so hard to take time to be with…

Do You Have a Slideshow On Your Website's Home Page? Uh Oh. Read This.
A tremendously popular request of clients looking for website redesigns or homepage reworks is the inclusion of a slideshow (also known as a carousel or slider).
Slideshows on homepages have been staples in the web design world for so long now it's actually uncommon these days to browse the web for very long without encountering a homepage slideshow.
Here's the problem
Slideshows often decrease the likelihood that website visitors will see the information website owners want them to see.
Sounds counter-intuitive, we know. That's why you shouldn't just take our word for it.
Here's proof
We highly recommend you take a quick look at this easy-to-read blog post and research summary in which one of the world's leading website usability experts, Jakob Nielsen, explains how slideshows can decrease the effectiveness of a business website—even if they look nice within a website's design.

Entanglement detachment in fermionic systems★

This article introduces and discusses the concept of entanglement detachment. Under some circumstances, enlarging a few couplings of a Hamiltonian can effectively detach a (possibly disjoint) block within the ground state. This detachment is characterized by a sharp decrease in the entanglement entropy between block and environment, and leads to an increase of the internal correlations between the (possibly distant) sites of the block. We provide some examples of this detachment in free fermionic systems. The first example is an edge-dimerized chain, where the second and penultimate hoppings are increased. In that case, the two extreme sites constitute a block which disentangles from the rest of the chain. Further examples are given by (a) a superlattice which can be detached from a 1D chain, and (b) a star-graph, where the extreme sites can be detached or not depending on the presence of an external magnetic field, in analogy with the Aharonov-Bohm effect. We characterize these detached blocks by their reduced matrices, specially through their entanglement spectrum and entanglement Hamiltonian.

Being the nation's capital and all, you know that we love our military brides and grooms! We adore and appreciate our of our active military and veterans, and especially our engaged military and their families for their sacrifice and dedication to this country. (And, it isn't just because of those handsome grooms in uniform, although that does help!) We've featured lots of different types of military weddings over the years and this week we are taking it one step farther. In honor of this year's Veterans Day, we are having a special military wedding week – we are talking all things weddings and military!

From what I've learned so far, there aren't as many rules and regulations to a military wedding as one might think, just more traditions and things to be aware of when planning a military wedding. With this in mind, I asked some of the top wedding planners in DC, MD and VA for their best advice for military weddings. What do they tell their military couples? Is there anything special or particular that our brides and grooms in uniform should look out for or be aware of when planning their wedding? Here is what they had to say…
I would advise the client if they were active duty to get wedding insurance. You never know with deployment." – Vicky, owner of Event Accomplished
"As you plan a military wedding, I would strongly suggest in investing in wedding insurance. If the wedding date has to be moved due to deployment or special assignment of the bride and/or groom, you want to make sure there is minimal financial loss. Most vendors and venues will honor deposits made and move dates around, but what if not all of the vendors hired are available on the new date? Wedding insurance is priceless in this instance." – Shawn, owner of TreBella Events
"Be mindful of military titles, which typically include rank and branch of service, when wording your wedding invitation. The format and the wording of the invitation are the same, but the use of titles is different. Military titles should not be abbreviated. When officers' names are used alone, the name of their branch of service is noted on the line beneath their names. When their names are used with their spouse's names, the branch of service is not mentioned. If their ranking is a captain or higher, officers in the army, air force or marines will use their military titles before their names. Navy and coast guard officers with a rank of commander or higher also use their military titles before their names." – Kawania, owner of Howerton + Wooten Events
"Military weddings aren't that different from any other weddings. There's actually no official protocol to follow. There are, however, a lot of fun traditions that military couples may choose to incorporate, such as attire. Men may choose to wear their full dress uniform instead of a tuxedo or other suit. Women may do the same, but most brides and bridesmaids opt for traditional wedding apparel. Also, military personnel in uniform may not wear flowers, so no boutonnieres for those dashing gentlemen!" – Stephanie, owner of Pretty Entertaining
"I always tell all of my clients that are in the military to ask for military discounts from their vendors. We are a very pro military family town (in the Washington DC area) and I know our firm gives 10% discount off all our services to folks in the military." – Katie, owner of Elegance & Simplicity
"Don't forget to ask every vendor if they offer a military discount, as most of them do or will if asked. – Courtney, owner of A Sweet Soiree
"While a lot of venues have flexibility, if you're having a military wedding on the base or academy grounds, book your military chapel a full year out. These venues are open to: a dependent of a graduate; an officer or enlisted person assigned to the academy complex, or his or her dependents; or a faculty or staff member, active or retired, or his or her dependents so they get busy, and fast." – Candy, of Candy + Co. Events
"Take advantage of venues that are on military bases. For example, Fort Myer (in Arlington, VA) has a beautiful chapel and officer's club for events." – Courtney, owner of A Sweet Soiree
"Couples who are military will have many great customs and traditions they may want to include. From a logistical standpoint, if they are active duty, flexibility with date will be a big factor when choosing the venue and vendors. In addition, to thinking about the details and logistics is attire. Grooms may want to wear their military dress uniform for all or part of the wedding day, such as for photos and/or the ceremony." – Margo, owner of Bright Occasions
"If you are having your wedding on a military base, be aware of the entry policies. Everyone should carry their ID with them, because you will likely be asked for it before entering the base. So if you're a bridesmaid, don't accidentally give it to your date while you're taking pictures between the ceremony and reception!" – Heather, owner of HJ Planners
"If the wedding is held on a military base, usually IDs are required for all guests and to allow for plenty of time to account for going through security check points. – Vicky, owner of Event Accomplished
"Military couples may choose to marry at a chapel on base and/or hold their reception at the officer's club. Remember to book these facilities early in the planning process, as they tend to be in high demand." – Stephanie, owner of Pretty Entertaining
"Military weddings are a little bit different. Essentially couples need to be aware that each branch of the armed forces has different wedding customs that apply. Besides the groom wearing his military dress (if he's a member of the military) two things that we find most common in all of the military weddings are that: (1) If the groom is wearing a saber or cutlass (with his white gloves) for the ceremony the bride will stand to the right of him instead of the left (to avoid contact with the blade though this blade does come in handy when cutting the cake!); and (2) Special accommodation should be made to seat guests according to rank (i.e. all high ranking officials should be seated in positions of honor at both the ceremony (first two rows) and the reception (close to the couple)." – Candy, of Candy + Co. Events
"If there are sufficient number of military members in the wedding party, then the newly married couple may exit the wedding ceremony through an arch of ceremonial weapons. Officers hold a sword or saber; enlisted personnel hold a ceremonial rifle." – Stephanie, owner of Pretty Entertaining
"If you plan to cut your cake with your sword or saber, ask your caterer to thoroughly clean it before putting it back in the scabbard. Otherwise, the sugar from the cake could ruin the blade and the scabbard." – Heather, owner of HJ Planners

By now you may have already had enough of Turkey and to be honest I actually can't blame you. Turkey is a poor bird whose meat only seems to be touched once a year. Well, not in this house. We eat turkey all year round as it's a great lean meat that is packed full of protein and it makes a filling meal.
A few years ago we bought a whole turkey for Christmas Day from the butchers. It was a huge piece of meat for just four people and a little one. Thankfully they removed the legs and ground the meat. Then I was left with ground turkey in the freezer but I didn't mind that. I had recipes in mind that I wanted to try. So if you have been left with ground turkey mince like me, this dish could be a winner in your house too.
Serves 4
- Sharp Knife
- Chopping board
- Grater
- Large mixing bowl
- Tablespoon
- Teaspoon
- Baking tray
- Onion x 1
- Carrot or courgette x 1 (optional)
- Mince turkey x 500g
- Bacon x 4 rashers
- Egg x 1
- Tommy k or tomato puree x 2 tbsp
- Ground flax seed x 4 tbsp
- Dried mixed herbs x 1 tsp
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Preheat the oven to 180°C or gas mark 4 and put the baking tray in.
- Peel and thinly chop the onion.
- Next peel and grate the carrot or courgette.
- Thinly slice the bacon rashers and add all of these ingredients to the bowl.
- Add in the mince turkey, egg, tommy k or tomato puree, flax seed and dried mixed herbs.
- Now add salt and pepper to taste.
- Mix all these ingredients together.
- Finally, make the turkey mixture into 4 burgers and remove the baking tray from the oven.
- Put the burgers into the tray and cook for around 25 – 30 minutes.
- Once they are golden brown, remove from the oven and serve with chips and salad or a broccoli and avocado salad. (Coming soon)
The burgers are a very simple way to use any leftover turkey mince you may have in your freezer. Plus they are a healthy meal that the whole family will enjoy. There were no complaints from my lot. We ate this with my homemade sweet potato chips and I also made a broccoli and avocado salad which was delicious. The recipe will be on my blog after this one. However you decide to eat this dish, as always, enjoy. xxx
What's your favourite way to use the leftover turkey. Let me know in the comments below and please don't forget to like, comment and subscribe to my channel. See you all soon. xxx

Hackensack, New Jersey's Police Chief, Charles "Ken" Zisa, has been suspended from the force with pay, after administrative charges were filed against him.
The chief's leave of absence stems from criminal charges filed against Zisa and his former girlfriend, Kathleen Tiernan, by the Bergen County Prosecutor's office. Prosecutor John Molinelli alleges that the pair committed insurance fraud following a 2008 motor vehicle accident in which Tierney, driving a vehicle that was registered and insured by Zisa, slammed into a utility pole. Police officers who arrived on the scene suspected that Tiernan was drunk, but before they could administer a sobriety test to determine if she had been driving under the influence, Zisa arrived and escorted her away.
Afterwards, according to investigators, Zisa demanded that one of his subordinates falsify a police report, by stating that a rodent crossing the road had caused Tiernan to swerve her car and impact the utility pole. Zisa then filed an insurance claim based on this information.
This is not the first controversy that Zisa has faced. Fifteen current and former officers with his department have named him in separate civil suits, alleging that he abused his authority as Police Chief and as a Democratic state assemblyman for the 37th District, an office he held from 1994 until 2002. They also allege that Zisa retaliated against officers who did not contribute to his election fund, or who refused to back the candidates he supported in county, city and police union elections.
Zisa has denied these allegations but did surrender to police to answer the insurance fraud charges.
Captain Tomas Padilla has been named the department's acting officer in charge, and it was Padilla who signed the administrative charges against Zisa. The chief has been charged with a violatin pursuant to the federal criminal complaint, and violation of civil service rules and regulations.
Yet the appointment of Padilla is also coming under fire because of his political background and allegations of cronyism with both Zisa and the county Democratic Party. Padilla, a Bergen County freeholder, is named in one of the federal civil suits against Zisa. He is accused of supporting the police chief's strongarm tactics in soliciting campaign donations—some of which went to his own freeholder election.
Padilla, who says that he plans to step down as freeholder, also said that the complaints against him had been dismissed, but according to court documents, only one set of allegations was dismissed. The others—including one that he conspired with Zisa—remain and will be heard in federal court.

Ancient Greek Architecture Architecture is the art of designing and creating buildings.
Greek architecture is a very specific and influential type of design, which was based off of the post-and-lintel system. The post-and-lintel system is made up of columns, which are large upright posts, with a roof, or architrave, over the top. This type of architecture began with the Greeks, but has persisted throughout the ages to live on today. Minotaur.
In Greek mythology, the Minotaur was a monster with the body of a man and the head and tail of a bull.
The Minotaur was the offspring of the Cretan Queen Pasiphae and a majestic bull. Due to the Minotaur's monstrous form, King Minos ordered the craftsman, Daedalus, and his son, Icarus, to build a huge maze known as the Labyrinth to house the beast. The Minotaur remained in the Labyrinth receiving annual offerings of youths and maidens to eat. He was eventually killed by the Athenian hero Theseus.

Generic Name: valrubicin (val ROO bi sin)
Brand Name: Valstar
Medically reviewed by Drugs.com on Jul 27, 2020 – Written by Cerner Multum
What is Valstar?
Valstar is a cancer medication that interferes with the growth and spread of cancer cells in the body.
Valstar is used to treat bladder cancer that has not spread to other parts of the body.
Valstar is usually given after BCG (Bacillus Calmette and Guérin) has been tried without success.
Valstar may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.
Important Information
You should not use Valstar if you have a urinary tract infection, bladder perforation (a hole or tear), overactive bladder, incontinence, or trouble holding in urine.
Before taking this medicine
You should not use Valstar if you are allergic to it, or if you have:
a urinary tract infection;
bladder perforation (a hole or tear); or
a history of allergic reaction to cancer medicines such as daunorubicin, doxorubicin, epirubicin, idarubicin, or mitoxantrone.
To make sure Valstar is safe for you, tell your doctor if you have:
overactive bladder, incontinence or leakage;
trouble holding a large amount of urine in your bladder; or
if you have recently had bladder surgery.
Most people who receive Valstar do not have a complete response to this medication. You may eventually need to have your bladder removed to prevent your cancer from spreading to other parts of your body.
Use effective birth control to avoid pregnancy during your treatment with Valstar, whether you are a man or a woman. Follow your doctor's instructions about how long to prevent pregnancy after your treatment ends.
It is not known whether Valstar will harm an unborn baby if the medicine remains only in the bladder. Tell your doctor if you are pregnant or plan to become pregnant while using this medication.
It is possible that Valstar could leak internally from the bladder and spread to other organs, including the uterus. If this happens during pregnancy, Valstar could harm the unborn baby or cause a miscarriage or stillbirth. This medicine is usually given during pregnancy only if the need for treatment of the mother outweighs the possible risk of harm to the baby.
It is not known whether valrubicin passes into breast milk or if it could harm a nursing baby. You should not breast-feed while using this medicine.
How is Valstar given?
Valstar is injected directly into the bladder using a catheter inserted into the urethra (the tube for passing urine out of your bladder). You will receive this medication in a clinic or hospital setting.
Valstar is usually given once per week for 6 weeks. This medicine is usually mixed into a solution that amounts to about 2.6 ounces (1/3 cup). This entire amount is injected into the bladder and should be held in for 2 hours.
Avoid using the bathroom for at least 2 hours after Valstar is placed in your bladder. Tell your doctor if you have trouble holding in the medicine for the full 2 hours.
If this medicine accidentally gets on your skin, wash it thoroughly with soap and warm water.
Your doctor will need to check your progress with frequent urine tests while you are using Valstar. You may also need to have a bladder biopsy or a bladder exam using a scope.
What happens if I miss a dose?
Call your doctor for instructions if you miss an appointment for your Valstar.
What happens if I overdose?
Since this medication is given by a healthcare professional in a medical setting, an overdose is unlikely to occur.
What should I avoid while using Valstar?
Valstar can pass into body fluids (urine, feces, vomit). For at least 48 hours after you receive a dose, avoid allowing your body fluids to come into contact with your hands or other surfaces. Caregivers should wear rubber gloves while cleaning up a patient's body fluids, handling contaminated trash or laundry or changing diapers. Wash hands before and after removing gloves. Wash soiled clothing and linens separately from other laundry.
Valstar side effects
Get emergency medical help if you have signs of an allergic reaction: hives; difficult breathing; swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat.
Call your doctor at once if you have:
pain or burning when you urinate;
blood in your urine or painful urination lasting for longer than 24 hours; or
Common side effects may include:
red or pink urine within the first 24 hours after you receive Valstar;
increased urge to urinate, urine leakage;
increase in night-time urinating; or
feeling like your bladder isn't completely empty.
This is not a complete list of side effects and others may occur. Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects. You may report side effects to FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088.
What other drugs will affect Valstar?
Because Valstar is not absorbed into the bloodstream, it is not likely that other drugs you take orally or inject will have an effect on this medicine used in the bladder. But many drugs can interact with each other. Tell each of your healthcare providers about all medicines you use, including prescription and over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal products.
Further information
Remember, keep this and all other medicines out of the reach of children, never share your medicines with others, and use this medication only for the indication prescribed.
Always consult your healthcare provider to ensure the information displayed on this page applies to your personal circumstances.

Cardinal Hayes is a win away from capturing the program's first Catholic high school state football title after defeating Archbishop Stepinac 25-7 for the Catholic High School Football League's AAA championship at Mitchel Field in Uniondale Nov. 16.
The Cardinals (7-4) will play Buffalo region champion Canisius (6-5) at 1 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 23, for the state title at Robert J. Stansky Memorial Complex in West Seneca.
Cardinal Hayes last competed for a state title in 2016 when it was edged by Canisius, 50-44. Canisius is appearing in its fourth state title game since 2014.
"Our goal was to make it to the state championship game," Cardinal Hayes coach CJ O'Neil told CNY. "We have a shot to go to it and win it. Reaching your goal is what you're looking to do every day as a football team."
O'Neil credited the Hayes defense for its strong play against the run and sophomore quarterback Henry Belin for leading his club in the league championship game.
Trailing 7-0 in the first quarter, Zachary Mitchell scored for the Cardinals to tie the game 7-7. Cardinal Hayes added two second-quarter touchdowns, one on a pass from Belin to Kuno Mendez and the second on a Jalen Smith run, to take a 19-7 lead.
Tafari Blackstock scored in the fourth quarter to close the scoring for the Cardinals.
Moore Catholic 28, St. Joseph by-the-Sea 6 — Justin Lacks ran for 237 yards, two touchdowns and broke New York City's all-time rushing record in the fourth quarter to lead Moore Catholic to the AA championship at Mitchel Field Nov. 16. Lacks finished his high school career with 5,468 rushing yards.
"It was a great win for our program, the second championship in four years," Moore Catholic coach Nick Giannatasio told CNY. "We are graduating a great group of young men, who led the team to a 9-1 record."
Moore Catholic trailed, 6-0, before scoring the game's final 28 points. Cameron Holmes caught a 15-yard touchdown pass from Nick Heineman and returned an interception 37 yards for a touchdown.
Artie Padilla finished with eight tackles and two sacks to lead the Mavericks defense. Michael Peraino had eight tackles, and Matt Heineman contributed six tackles and a sack.
John F. Kennedy Catholic 39, Cardinal Spellman 33 — Clayton Proctor ran 12 yards for the winning touchdown in overtime for host Kennedy Catholic in the A title game Nov. 10.
Proctor had 280 rushing yards and four touchdowns on 35 carries, and completed 12 of 18 passes for 145 yards and a touchdown.
"His will to win was awesome and I was just hoping to put the ball in his hands one more time in OT, and sure enough he came through like he did so many times during the game," Kennedy Catholic coach Dominick Tassone told CNY. "He put on a display of athleticism that not many people can do, and to do it under the bright lights while everyone is watching was amazing."
Bobby Piesco had 11 carries for 70 yards, and caught two passes for 30 yards and one touchdown for the Gaels. Liam Muholland booted a 27-yard, game-tying field goal as time expired in regulation to force overtime.
"Liam has ice in his veins, to be able to come on and kick the field goal to save the season and not bat an eye was impressive," Tassone said. "I told his parents even though he is a fantastic soccer player, he may have football in his future."
Chris LoRusso led the Kennedy Catholic defense with 17 tackles, including five tackles for a loss. Aidan Bernal contributed 15 tackles and one sack, and Ikenna Ononaji and Piesco added 12 and 11 tackles, respectively. Ayden Sanchez had two sacks.
