After delivering issue number one around town, I was approached by a nice couple at one of my drops Photographs who said they appreciated what I was trying to do and asked me a few questions. They could tell I had no idea Pat Reynolds what was going on and suggested I call a lady named Lynn Hammett who was a friend of Darien Murray, Columnist the Editor/Publisher of The Dinghy, the publication I was essentially attempting to replace after her passing. Mookie At the time, there were some people around town who didn’t like what I was doing out of respect for Darien and I understood. Contributors Dave Kirby “Do you think this Lynn Hammett will help me or curse me?” I asked. Richard Schaefer The couple looked at each other for a moment and one of them said, “maybe both.” Copy Editing Assistance Lynn had lunch with me at Edie’s Diner and with her no-nonsense manner brought me up to speed like a long Lisa Asahara lost Aunt that didn’t have time for such bother but was doing it anyway. Tersely she welcomed me and told me Opening Day was the next week and I should be there. Lynn brought me around and looked out for me For advertising rates and that day and continued to do the same in the years to come. Information contact 310-397-1887 - phone When I read an email recently that Lynn had died, my heart sank. She was such an integral part of the Yacht email Club fabric - one of those people that seemed would always be around, but now was gone.

Box 9403 with her legs, which led to extra weight, which exacerbated the problems further and she didn’t have the Marina del Rey, CA 90295 resources to take care of it all. I believe she was sad and that made it all the worse to hear the news. The Mariner appears on the 3rd When Lynn won the David Poe Memorial Service Award for all her work within the Friday of every month. community in 2005, she cried before her peers. She was recognized for her deeds This issue June 18 - July 16 and it touched her heart. Today I too recognize Lynn and say that I will miss her humor, her spirit and above all else her loyalty to the boating community. I hope she is at peace. Thanks for picking it up!

    The Journal of the Arizona Yacht Club - September 2010 Fall Race Season Set to Begin! Merit 25 and Viper 640 Fleets Are Back, Indicating Strong Interest By Trey Harlow he fall racing season is upon us, and it’s already turned out to be a challenging beginning! As many of you may have heard, seen, or witnessed, Tempe Town Lake is out of commission until the Tend of October at the earliest. While it’s too early to place blame for the failure, I thought it was aw- fully convenient that Dennis Martinelli announced he was moving to Cali- fornia the very week the dam exploded. I’ll let you decide! (Good luck to Dennis in his move to Bakersfield. At least now we have a place to stop over on our way to Huntington.) Shorter TTL Season In the wake of the TTL fiasco, we will have a shortened fall season there, BUT that doesn’t mean that if you race exclusively at TTL, you have to give up any races. That’s right, come join your fellow racers at Lake Pleasant for several weekends of racing until TTL is back in service! Latest status indicates that the dam construction is on schedule and TTL is planned to be back in service in November. In the meantime, the AYC fleet looks forward to seeing any and all TTL racers out at LP for fun in the sun. Dennis Martinelli scored a Buccaneer National Championship Three-peat crewing for Dave Spira. Now Dennis has jumped Lake Pleasant is shaping up for another good series of racing with six at a FedEx promotion and has moved to (true) Bakersfield, fleets planning to participate.

Die Anforderungen orientieren sich an den im Bildungsplan Stadtteilschule Englisch (Hamburg 2011) ausgewiesenen „Mindestanforderungen am Ende der Jahrgangsstufe 9 bzw. im Verlauf der Jahrgangsstufe 10 mit Blick auf den Übergang in die Studienstufe nach Jahrgangsstufe 11“. Die Aufgaben sind eigens gekennzeichnet und mit einem Hinweis für die Schülerinnen und Schüler versehen; sie müssen nicht bearbeitet werden, ermöglichen es jedoch, zusätzliche Punkte zu erwerben.
