You can play tennis at your local park, a gym, or a tennis club. Search online or ask friends where the best local courts are. Most parks let you play for free, but you'll probably need to pay membership fees to play anywhere else. You can practice basic serving techniques in any large, open space, but it's best to spend as much time as possible on actual courts. You'll learn the layout of the court faster, and minimize the risk of breaking anything with your racquet or a ball! You don't need to buy professional-grade tennis supplies right away, but every beginner will need to have a few things to get started. Some gyms or tennis clubs provide basic supplies for their members, but if that isn't the case, you'll need to go shopping. You'll need a racquet with its own case. For a beginner, all you really need to do is check to make sure your hand fits comfortably around the handle. The racquet shouldn't feel like it's too heavy to move, but it also shouldn't feel like it weighs nothing. There are also men's and women's racquets, but you should prioritize fit over gender in most cases. Buy at least three tennis balls. They get lost very easily! Before you buy tennis clothes, ask your gym or club if they have any clothing requirements. If not, any loose, comfortable athletic clothes will be fine. Stricter clubs may require you to buy tennis shoes, tennis shorts and shirts, and tennis skirts for women. However, this is not always the case. Tennis shoes are the best to play tennis in, but if you don't have them, any pair of sneakers will do. Once you learn the basics, you'll need an opponent to practice tennis with. Ask anyone you see playing at your local court if they'd be interested in helping you learn. If not, try asking friends, family, or even searching online for a local tennis association.

Summary: Find a place to play. Buy tennis supplies. Buy tennis clothes. Find an opponent.

In order to dial Italy, you will need to type in the exit code (also known as the international dialing code), as well as the country code. The international dialing code for Italy is 011 and the country code is 39. These codes do not change. The area code you put in depends on which area you are calling. If you are calling Rome, for example, the area code is 09, but if you are calling Venice the area code is 041. The way to call a party in Italy is to dial access code + country code + area code + phone number, for example, 011-39-041-###-####. At the time of your call, have an idea about the local Italy time. This will ensure that you are not calling someone in the middle of the night. You can find time converters online, or ask Google or Siri what the current time is in Italy. Type in or ask, "What time is it in Italy?" For example, Italy is six hours ahead of New York. Therefore, in order to reach your party at a reasonable time of the day, you will need to make the call at 1 or 2 p.m. You will need to place the call even earlier if you are trying to reach someone during business hours.

Summary: Type the exit code. Input the area code. Consider time changes.

If you want to part ways with your iPad so you can exchange or upgrade it for another electronic device, a trade-in program may be in sync with your plan. A number of companies allow you to trade in your iPad for credit, cash, or a new gadget. When deciding which trade-in program is best for you, go to the websites of companies offering the trade-in program to find out how they assess devices, how they offer compensation, and if it will meet your specific requirements. Compare similar used models sold online for a ballpark figure of how much you can expect to get from these companies. If your goal is to have extra cash on hand, a trade-in program wherein you receive a gift certificate for a retailer is not ideal. However, if you simply want to get rid of your device without much ado and still get something in exchange, go for the trade-in. Apple also allows you to trade in your iPad for a gift card. Recycling can either be done online or at an Apple store. To find out more, check out this portion of Apple's website.
Summary: Consider a trade-in. Give recycling a thought.
