    Alex Gallardo Irene Carlson Gallery of Photography Eyes on the Ball April 11 through May 20, 2011 An exhibition of photographs Miller Hall, University of La Verne Photographer’s Statement My start in photojournalism began with a slide show program during a beginning photo class at the University of La Verne. It was presented by a well-known photojournalist at the The Sun in San Bernardino, Tom Kasser. His work opened my eyes. Once I had seen what he could do with a camera, it brought me to see, and not just look, at the world around me. Kasser gave me a goal to strive for, to work at The Sun as a staff photographer. Through my undergraduate career I learned the mechanics of the craft. As a lifetime baseball player I already had the competitive gene so I redirected my passion for athletics toward photography. I took a detour in my quest to be a photojournalist after graduating from ULV. A huge mistake cost me thirteen months of my professional life, and almost the use of my legs. I drove a dump truck backwards over a cliff, spent three months in a hospital and at home in a body cast recuperating from injuries. I spent another nine months in physical therapy learning to walk. Doctors told me that I might not regain the use of my legs or walk without assistance for least five years, if ever. Luckily, I had a great physical therapist. We worked hard every day and prayed to regain the use of my legs. Once I began to walk doctors cleared me to continue as a photographer and stay away from driving trucks.

  • Lengua Y Beisbol En La RD..Pmd
    Orlando Alba ... Lengua y béisbol en la República Dominicana IV. Glosario El siguiente glosario reúne más de 600 unidades léxicas per- tenecientes al vocabulario utilizado en el mundo del juego de pe- lota en la República Dominicana. Para llevar a cabo el acopio de este material, se acudió a las tres fuentes de información ya indi- cadas: un test de asociación de palabras que recoge el léxico dis- ponible, un cuestionario dirigido y diez trozos de transmisiones de radio y de televisión. Con fines de verificación se recurrió a veces a la prensa escrita en versión electrónica. Según se observará, no solo se incluyen formas simples, como anotar, bate, foul, novato, pifiar, rally o sótano, sino también cons- trucciones complejas que funcionan unitariamente, del tipo base por bolas, coach de pitcheo, estar en el hoyo, soltar el brazo, zona de seguridad. Para cada una de las entradas se ofrece su definición, se indica si está documentada o no en otros países hispánicos y se recoge una oración en la que aparece utilizada. Como se indicó oportunamente, la documentación del uso de cada palabra en otros países se realizó con la ayuda del Corpus de Referencia del Español Actual (CREA), del Banco de Datos de la Real Academia Española. No debe olvidarse que por más extenso que sea, dicho corpus constituye una muestra que, como es lógico, no recoge toda la bibliografía existente. Por eso conviene precisar 109 Orlando Alba ... Lengua y béisbol en la República Dominicana que si un término particular, como podría ser alineación, no se atestigua en un país, esto no implica necesariamente que sea des- conocido.
