May 7, 2020 to the MEMBERS of the UNITED STATES CONGRESS May 7, 2020 TO THE MEMBERS OF THE UNITED STATES CONGRESS: On behalf of the undersigned chambers of commerce, civic groups, trade associations, and other non-profits, we urge you to extend eligibility for the Paycheck Protection Program to all nonprofit organizations when Congress considers the next COVID-19 emergency assistance legislation. Thousands of nonprofit organizations — including ours — were left out of the Phase 3 CARES Act and are being hard hit by the coronavirus pandemic. Our groups contribute to the vitality and spirit of our communities. We employ thousands of people and provide important workforce development and educational tools, economic support, and civic and cultural events. Our organizations have suffered major financial losses due to the pandemic of the type the Paycheck Protection Program was intended to alleviate. Some non-profits have already permanently closed their doors. Many more will be forced to do so without relief from Congress. The CARES Act made certain nonprofit organizations eligible for the Paycheck Protection Program. We urge Congress to extend this assistance to local chambers of commerce, civic groups, trade associations, and other non-profits so that organizations like ours can continue to provide important, community-minded services. Sincerely, National American Institute of CPAs American International Automobile Dealers Agricultural Retailers Association Association Air-Conditioning, Heating and Refrigeration Institute American Iron and Steel Institute American Apparel & Footwear Association American Moving and Storage Association Associated Builders and Contractors American Public Transportation Association American Bus Association American Retirement Association American Coatings Association American Society of Association Executives American Foundry Society American Society of Media Photographers American Health Quality Association American Shipbuilding Suppliers Association American Short Line & Regional Railroad Association International Council of Shopping Centers (ICSC) (ASLRRA) International Festivals & Events Association American Staffing Association International Franchise Association ASIS International International Sign Association Asphalt Pavement National Association Luxembourg American Chamber of Commerce Associated Equipment Distributors Metals Service Center Institute Associated Equipment Manufacturers Motor & Equipment Manufacturers Association Association for Advanced Life Underwriting/GAMA National Affordable Housing Management Association International (NAHMA) Association for Unmanned Vehicle Systems International National Association for the Self-Employed Association of Chamber of Commerce Executives National Association of Broadcasters Battery Council International National Association of Chemical Distributors Belgian-American Chamber of Commerce National Association of Chain Drug Stores Brick Industry Association National Association of Federally-Insured BritishAmerican Business Credit Unions CCIM Institute National Association of Government Guaranteed Construction Industry Employers Association Lenders Construction Management Association of America National Association of Hispanic Real Estate Consumer Bankers Association Professionals (NAHREP) Consumer Healthcare Products Association (CHPA) National Association of Home Builders Council for Responsible Nutrition National Association of Latino State Chambers Decorative Hardwoods Association of Commerce DHI -

  • Met Open Championship Presented by Callaway 103Rdaugust 21 - 23, 2018 Wykagyl Country Club History of the Met Open Championship Presented by Callaway
    Met Open Championship Presented by Callaway 103rdAugust 21 - 23, 2018 Wykagyl Country Club History of the Met Open Championship Presented by Callaway From its inception in 1905 through the 1940 renewal, the Met Open was considered one of the most prestigious events in golf, won by the likes of Gene Sarazen, Walter Hagen, Johnny Farrell, Tommy Armour, Paul Runyan, Byron Nelson, and Craig Wood, in addition to the brothers Alex and Macdonald Smith (who together captured seven Met Opens, with Alex winning a record four times). The second edition of the championship was hosted and sponsored by Hollywood Golf Club, when George Low won in 1906. After an eight-year hiatus overlapping World War II, the Met Open became more of a regional championship, won by many of the top local club professionals, among them Claude Harmon, Jimmy Wright, Jim Albus, David Glenz, Bobby Heins and Darrell Kestner, not to mention such storied amateurs as Chet Sanok, Jerry Courville Sr., George Zahringer III, Jim McGovern, Johnson Wagner, and Andrew Svoboda. The purse was raised to a record $150,000 in 2007, giving the championship added importance. In 2015 the MGA celebrated a major milestone in marking the championship’s 100th playing, won by Ben Polland at Winged Foot Golf Club. In 2017, The MGA welcomed a new Championship Partner, Callaway Golf. Callaway Golf is the presenting sponsor of the Met Open Championship. Eligibility The competition is open to golfers who are: 1. Past MGA Open Champions. 2. PGA Members in good standing in the Metropolitan and New Jersey PGA Sections.

  • “I Play Hunches,” by Gene Sarazen
    14 THE SRTURDAY EVENING POST .Rug ust JI, 19J,s - absontly to myself: "How about a rudder on the back of my niblick ?" The result was a special niblick with a rear one-quarter of an inch lower than-the frout edge of the blade. In other words, it is designed with a rudder like an airpl ane, and its effect was amazing. I don't fear the traps now. I even seek them, as I did on two holes of the 1D32 world's championship match with Francis Ouimet. I mean that I played for the traps while Ouimet played for the pin, and I won both holes, as I fully expected to. I knew, you see, that the pin s were not advantageously placed; that Ouimet's pitch shots wouldn't hold the green, but would roll over into the rough. And I knew tha,t I could chip nearer to the cup from the sand than he or anybody else could from the grass. Nobody knows it, but when I threw away .Ils T old to Davis J.

The beautiful Oakmont Country Club, Pitts- Question, Indeed burgh, will see the battle royal, and this year Canadians will especially take an interest in it because the past few weeks all the leading contestants have been seen on courses here and thousands have followed them in their play and admired their wonderful work with wood and iron. That the present U. 8S. champion, Mr. Charles Evans, Jr., will have to put up a wonderful game to retain his title does not admit of a doubt. If he can ‘“nutt’’ this week, he maydo it. If his putter is not working well, there are half a dozen contenders who will give him a bad time ofit. Take for instance Francis Ouimet, the vanquisher of Vardon and Ray, and an ex-open and amateur champion.

  • The Power of Place: Structure, Culture, and Continuities in U.S. Women's Movements
    The Power of Place: Structure, Culture, and Continuities in U.S. Women's Movements By Laura K. Nelson A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Sociology in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Kim Voss, Chair Professor Raka Ray Professor Robin Einhorn Fall 2014 Copyright 2014 by Laura K. Nelson 1 Abstract The Power of Place: Structure, Culture, and Continuities in U.S. Women's Movements by Laura K. Nelson Doctor of Philosophy in Sociology University of California, Berkeley Professor Kim Voss, Chair This dissertation challenges the widely accepted historical accounts of women's movements in the United States. Second-wave feminism, claim historians, was unique because of its development of radical feminism, defined by its insistence on changing consciousness, its focus on women being oppressed as a sex-class, and its efforts to emphasize the political nature of personal problems. I show that these features of second-wave radical feminism were not in fact unique but existed in almost identical forms during the first wave. Moreover, within each wave of feminism there were debates about the best way to fight women's oppression. As radical feminists were arguing that men as a sex-class oppress women as a sex-class, other feminists were claiming that the social system, not men, is to blame. This debate existed in both the first and second waves. Importantly, in both the first and the second wave there was a geographical dimension to these debates: women and organizations in Chicago argued that the social system was to blame while women and organizations in New York City argued that men were to blame.

    THE APAWAMIS CLUB Two Club Road Rye, New York 10580 (914) 967-2100 www.apawamis.org About The Apawamis Club: Apawamis’ story demonstrates the richness of the club’s enduring legacy and the origin from which the founding of the Club was inspired dating back to the year 1890. The origins of squash at Apawamis are historically significant as it can be said that Apawamis played a prominent role in the development of the game, then known as “squash tennis.” It was in 1904 that the first squash house at Apawamis, comprising of two courts was built. It is believed that this was only the third such facility in the country built on club grounds after Tuxedo and the New York Racquet Club. Several years later, with the popularity of this new sport on firm footing, the courts were moved to the area of our current location. Although there have been many renovations and conversions of court size, Apawamis has kept pace with the times and proudly boasts one of the finest squash programs in the country. The Club’s support of the renowned athletic programs and the ongoing upgrades and renovations to the clubhouse and athletic facilities demonstrates the Apawamis membership’s appreciation of the club, for its history and traditions. • 700 plus family members • 5 squash singles courts and 2 squash doubles courts • 7 tennis courts and 3 paddle courts • 18 hole golf course • State-of-the-art athletic fitness center • Outdoor pool • 4 dining rooms, 2 bar lounges Position Summary: Job Title - Director of Junior Squash He or she will be the second highest ranking professional in the squash department at the Apawamis Club and the “heir apparent” to the Director of Apawamis Squash, Peter Briggs.
