In billiards the corner pocket means an opening in the billiards table into which the balls are struck into. There are also side pockets. the idea is to get the balls in to the pockets.

A jump break cue is a cue that billiard players use to break with and also the same cue breaks down into a jump cue. Traditionally, a break cue is a heavier cue that has a stiff shaft to transfer power from the player to the cue and ultimately to the racked balls on the other side of the table. There is a notion that a thinner shaft will give a "whip" action. this "whip action ismilliseconds after the hit on the cue ball, the shaft is temporally deformed and in another couple milliseconds, the shaft violently returns back to its original straight form. The violent return to its original form is the whip action.

The jump portion of the cue is the shaft and the front prong (front 12" of cue behind the shaft and before the handle of the cue) of the cue that separates from the rest of the cue.
Legal jumps in billiards are strikes on the upper half of the cue ball. The action of the cue ball is pressed down onto the table and as a reaction, the cue ball squirts in an upward motion leaving the table surface.

Jump cues need to be light in weight as to make contact with the cue ball and be off of the it so the milliseconds it takes for the cue ball to respond, it won't be restricted by a jump cue that is still in the way of the cue ball's jump.

Willie Mosconi was hired by Brunswick to promote their equipment in 1934. He was required to endorse Brunswick tables and Brunswick cues as well. The popular Brunswick cues of the era included the Master Stroke cues (introduced in the 1930's), the Willie Hoppe Titlist, and the Professional (both introduced about 1940). These cues are all highly collectible today and were made throughout Willie Mosconi's era.

Lifetime sports are those which are enjoyed by the young and the old. Sports which can be enjoyed at various intensity levels: golf and tennis are excellent examples. Soccer would not be considered a lifetime sport because it involves so much running. American football would not be considered a lifetime sport because it involves both running and tackling. The "soft" martial arts such as Tai Chi and KungFu are considered lifetime sports while the "hard" martial arts such as taekwondo, judo and karate are not because they involve strikes and grappling.
