  • President's Letter
    June 12, 2020 PRESIDENT’S LETTER Downtime Quarantining at home, we’re all facing a bit more downtime than usual. I started to learn the ukulele and it’s going great, assuming all you want to hear is “Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.” I’ve also practiced Morse code for the first time since my Boy Scout days. Still having trouble with numbers and punctuation, but I’ve got the 26 letters of the alphabet nailed. Sadly, Morse code doesn’t come up too often in conversation. Putting aside music and ham radio, this is a good opportunity to hone your own professional skills and undertake long-overdue office projects. Get caught up on that pile of New Yorker magazines, some of the best writing in the country. Take out your digital SLR camera and learn the difference between aperture and shutter priority. Create space on your computer by backing up and deleting old files. Learn a few more Photoshop skills such as cropping, brightness/contrast and image size. Get acquainted with new outdoor apps like National Geographic’s iNaturalist or The Cornell Lab’s Merlin. Start a website or blog showcasing your work. Increase your proficiency in video editing. Create a target list of editors to pitch. View a professional development seminar, such as the recent webinar hosted by New York-based freelance journalist Meena Thiruvengadam linked below. The world is slowly opening up and I fully expect we’ll all come roaring back in the fall. Having a few more skills in your professional quiver will keep your career on track.

  • Bayern Squander 2-Goal Lead to Lose to Gladbach
    ARAB TIMES, SUNDAY, JANUARY 10, 2021 SPORTS 14 Pinturault wins giant slalom Goggia races to dominating win in World Cup downhill ADELBODEN, Switzerla- nd, Jan 9, (AP): Alexis Pinturault won a World Cup giant slalom for a sec- ond straight day on the sto- ried Adelboden hill on Saturday, topping his superb performance from Friday. Pinturault defied fast-fading light in the second run to post a huge winning margin of 1.26 sec- onds over Filip Zubcic, the runner- up on back-to-back days. First-run leader Loic Meillard could not give Switzerland its first win since 2008 in its classic giant slalom. A big error early in his run left him 1.65 back in third place. Pinturault’s third straight giant sla- lom victory was a 33rd career win in World Cup races, matching American great Bode Miller in ninth place on the men’s all-time list. Pinturault seized the lead in the sea- son-long giant slalom standings from home favorite Marco Odermatt, who placed fourth, 1.67 back. SKIIING The Frenchman also extended his lead in the World Cup overall points race ahead of Aleksander Aamodt Kilde, the defending champion. Kilde’s results - fifth place, after fourth on Friday – were impressive for the speed race specialist. Pinturault’s wire-to-wire win Friday had also been by more than a second, though he noted the light was more challenging Saturday. At Adelboden, the slope darkens quickly after the sunshine slips behind the mountains around 2 pm when the leaders start their second run.
