Class of 1976 Class of 1976 From Hanover • March 2014 THIS IS THE YEAR !! It’s Snowing As I Write... It’s looking like the snow may never leave, but I have a vague feeling that I’ve experienced this March dread before. Winter Carnival was better for the snow, and the beastly cold did not seem to deter the undergrads from plunging into the pond. I watched for awhile, trying to understand the draw. Paul (Kim) Windrath, our illustrious Web Master, has been collecting stories from our classmates, learning how they are celebrating their 60th birthdays. It is such a great idea, and he has very kindly passed on many of your stories. From Tim Caldwell (Lyme, NH): “60. Hmmm. It’s the first birthday since my 20th that is really sinking in. Although last minute, our celebration was really fun: we travelled to Tesero, Italy (Sud Tirol) to watch our youngest (Patrick D ’17) compete in the World Jr. Champi- onships for Cross Country Skiing. He had a couple of great races and it was terrific to be there with him and our eldest, Lucy, who flew down from London where she’s in grad school. To top it off, we travelled home on my birthday, giv- ing me 6 extra hours to savor the day! Yes, still in the estate planning business. Happy to chat with (Photos by Eli Burak ‘00) you re you parents on general topics—if they live in a state other than NH or VT I couldn’t give you any state specific insights. Finally, yes, still skiing, but not competing. Glad to hear you are still in the mix. Gotta keep moving.” From Jeff Bolton (Kailua, Hawaii): “Indeed today is my 60th, and the best gift of all is that I am not dead. Perhaps that is a fairly low bar but I have been having some severe health issues so the fact I am looking down on the grass is meaningful. My wife and I are celebrating tonight by heading into Ho- nolulu for Chinese food, in Chinatown. Chinatown here is pretty much like every Chinatown, a bit dicey but fun and great food. After, we are going to the Lion King, which the Touring company is here, so we are going to enjoy a bit of a Broadway moment. Medford was a great place to grow up, and maybe a better place to leave. Have to admit, though, salmon and steel- head fishing on the Rogue were among the great moments of my youth, as was stealing pears and peaches from Sabrosa orchards.” http://www.dartmouth.org/classes/76/class76.html [email protected] HAPPY 60th BIRTHDAY, CLASS OF 1976 From Anne Katlic (Penfield, NY): down.

ZGODBO ZLATE LISICE PIŠEMO SKUPAJ Za nas Štajerce, ki smo Pohorje vedno imeli pred očmi, je Zlata lisica zmeraj pomenila najpomembnejšo športno prireditev v vsakem letu in za naše športne junakinje smo vedno srčno in glasno navijali. Na Pohorje sem se sicer vselej z največjim veseljem vračal, pa če je šlo za dnevno smučarijo, poletne priprave namiznoteniškega kluba ali pa le ob pogledu iz družinskega vinograda, ko se pred očmi za Ptujskim in Dravskim poljem razgrne v vsej mogočnosti. Čeravno sem sam zgolj rekreativni smučar in sem bil tekmovalno zapisan namiznemu tenisu, občudujem vse slovenske športnice in športnike, ki s trdim delom predano sledijo postavljenim ciljem, imajo najvišje ambicije in dosegajo izjemne rezultate v svetovnem merilu. V športu je vse jasno in običajno ni prostora za iskanje izgovorov. Podobno filozofijo gojijo tudi slovenske podjetnice in podjetniki, ki dosegajo vse boljše rezultate v globalni konkurenci. Vnaprej se veselim časa, ko si bomo tudi v oblastnih strukturah in Za to skrbimo na več načinov. Najprej s resnično neugodnih razmerah pokazati sistemskih institucijah postavili enake cilje. svojim znanjem in storitvami, usmerjenimi še posebno veliko požrtvovalnosti in Da bomo kot družba med najboljšimi na k strankam, s prepoznavanjem priložnosti predanosti, za kar se ji v NLB zahvaljujemo svetu in bomo za to trdo in predano delali, in potreb lokalnega okolja, z uspešnim in ji čestitamo. Prepričani smo, da bodo vse ne pa kot v zadnjem desetletju v glavnem poslovanjem ter s promocijo slovenskega od sebe dali tudi v njenem drugem domu, iskali bližnjice in izgovore, zakaj nam ne gospodarstva.

  • Watching Janica Kostelic on Tv Psyched Me Up
    WATCHING JANICA KOSTELIC ON TV PSYCHED ME UP Mikaela Shiffrin studied her idol on TV in 2005, when she won the slalom in Santa Caterina Valfurva The stars and stripes anthem for Mikaela Shiffrin fills the Stelvio course's parterre with enthusiasm while the American from Vail jumps on the podium with Maria Pitilae-Holmner and Nastasia Noens. And it suddenly stops raining and even snowing in Bormio! It looks like the weather too wants to celebrate the triumph of this amazing eighteen years old girl from Colorado. Tomorrow the weather conditions will be good and the men's World Cup slalom on the Stelvio is going to regularly take place at 14.45pm (1st run) and 6.10pm (2nd run). The three ladies of today's slalom spoke during the press conference at the Bormio, via Roma press office. These are the official quotes of the three champions: MIKAELA SHIFFRIN (Usa) – First place in Bormio "It 's been a battle, but I was ready. I have improved a lot in the past three weeks and today I felt strong, but I think I can still improve during the rest of the season. The skis were so good today and I was ready to go fast. It was an exciting battle with Marlies Schild when in Lienz. The most important thing is to work the hardest possible and ski better and better. I am so happy with my results so far in this season. I had never skied in Bormio before but I remember when I watched my idol Janica Kostelic on TV in 2005.

  • Patrick Lang's Column
    Patrick Lang’s Column 11th December 2019 LA «SQUADRA ROSA» C’È! THE STRONG ITALIAN TEAM! The winners’ list of the numerous World Cup stages organized in Sestriere since 1967 – many part being of in the prestigious Arlberg-Kandahar “Classic” – really is impressive… Most of the stars and “Skiing Legends” from the 1960s until 2016 excelled on the various slopes of the Vialattea which also hosted thrilling medal events back in 1997 (FIS World Championships) and 2006 (Olympics), without forgetting the exciting World Cup Finals in 2004! Among the winners on the women’s tour one can find the name of two Italian aces - Giustina Demetz who enjoyed a memorable win in downhill in March 1967 (sharing first place with France’s exceptional Marielle Goitschel) while Maria Rosa Quario won a slalom later on in 1983! In January 2020, a group of specialists of the “Squadra Rosa” will surely be fighting hard to claim the first Italian victory in a World Cup giant slalom race on the challenging G. Agnelli course, 23 years after the gold medal triumphs of Deborah Compagnoni in both tech events of the FIS World Championships. Interestingly enough, there are several Italian candidates ready to strike as shown by the results of the first competitions held in Austria and North America, where four Italian champions celebrated a brilliant victory and several podium finishes in three different specialties – giant slalom, downhill and Super-G. At Killington, 23-year-old Marta Bassino enjoyed her maiden World Cup victory after two blistering runs. She beat all the
