Franklin, MA has two interchanges on US Interstate 495 (Exits 16 and 17).
Having two highway interchanges instead of just one helps alleviate traffic congestion at rush hours for Franklin residents and generally makes it easier to get across town – you can just hop on Route 495 for one exit!
Having Route 495 so accessible has other important benefits to Franklin.
It has brought a lot of industry and businesses to town, materially enlarging the tax base and helping keep real estate taxes low.
It also means a great number of retailers have located either in Franklin or a short drive away from town via Route 495.
So Franklin, MA residents have wonderful shopping readily at hand.

The late Eocene clinopyroxene-bearing spherule layer: New sites, nature of the strewn field, Ir data, and discovery of coesite and shocked quartz

DOI: 10.1130/2009.2452(04)
In order to better define the late Eocene clinopyroxene-bearing (cpx) spherule layer and to determine how the ejecta vary with distance from the presumed source crater (Popigai), we searched for the layer at 23 additional sites. We identified the layer at six (maybe seven) of these sites: Deep Sea Drilling Project (DSDP) and Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) Holes 592, 699A, 703A, 709C, 786A, 1090B, and probably 738B. The cpx spherule layer occurs in magnetochron 16n.1n, which indicates an age of ca. 35.4 ± 0.1 Ma for the layer. We found the highest abundance of cpx spherules and associated microtektites in Hole 709C in the northwest Indian Ocean, and we found coesite and shocked quartz in the cpx spherule layer at this site. We also found coesite in the cpx spherule layer at Site 216 in the northeast Indian Ocean. This is the first time that coesite has been found in the cpx spherule layer, and it provides additional support for the impact origin of this layer. In addition, the discovery of coesite and shocked quartz grains (with planar deformation features [PDFs]) supports the conclusion that the pancake-shaped clay spherules associated with quartz grains exhibiting PDFs are diagenetically altered cpx spherules. An Ir anomaly was found associated with the cpx spherule layer at all four of the new sites (699A, 709C, 738B, 1090B) for which we obtained Ir data. The geometric mean of the Ir fluence for the 12 sites with Ir data is 5.7 ng/cm 2 , which is ~10% of the fluence estimated for the Cretaceous-Tertiary boundary. Based on the geographic distribution of the 23 sites now known to contain the cpx spherule layer, and 12 sites where we have good chronostratigraphy but the cpx spherule layer is apparently absent, we propose that the cpx spherule strewn field may have a ray-like distribution pattern. Within one of the rays, the abundance of spherules decreases and the percent microtektites increases with distance from Popigai. Shocked quartz and coesite have been found only in this ray at the two sites that are closest to Popigai. At several sites in the Southern Ocean, an increase in δ 18 O in the bulk carbonate occurs immediately above the cpx spherule layer. This increase may indicate a drop in temperature coincident with the impact that produced the cpx spherule layer.
Post-Turonian Rudist-Bearing Limestones of the Peri-Tethyan Region: Evolution of the Sedimentary Patterns and Lithofacies in the Context of Global Versus Regional Controls

Abstract Post-Turonian (Late Cretaceous) rudist-bearing limestones of the Nurra region in northwestern Sardinia (northern Tethyan margin) and in the central-southern Apennines and Apulia (central Tethyan domain) have recorded relevant changes in the characteristics of the carbonate platforms following the "middle" Cretaceous crisis events which affected the peri-Tethyan region as well as other regions worldwide. Rudist bivalves became the dominant lithogenetic taxon owing to their proliferation in shallow-water environments and strong dominance of Late Cretaceous carbonate factories. Their inception, evolution, and demise were seemingly controlled by a complex interplay of environmental processes that, acting on a global scale, profoundly modified the Early Cretaceous hydrosphere-atmosphere system and forced Tethyan depositional systems to change their organization, internal architecture, and facies patterns. As a result, wide, open shelves developed where the almost ubiquitous mode of carbonate fixation was that of foramol factories. In this paper, evidence of the remarkable regional variability in the rudist-bearing carbonate platforms of the Mediterranean Tethys is presented. The analysis of the resulting shallow-water facies has demonstrated that, in spite of several stratigraphic similarities and common sedimentological features, some remarkable differences occurred between the northern Tethyan margin and the central Tethyan banks as regards the areal partitioning of the main paleoecologic controlling factors. This resulted in the deposition of rhodalgal successions in Sardinia (northern Tethyan margin) and rudist-rich foramol facies in the Apennine-Apulia (central Tethys) regions, respectively. Such Late Cretaceous carbonate systems can be viewed as geological products which have closely and coherently recorded the globally changing environmental conditions of the oceanic realm. In spite of this, the difference of the facies partitioning in different Tethyan regions according to a latitudinal gradient is interpreted as derived mainly from local variable paleoceanographic and paleoclimatic conditions.

Download and Install GrooveShark App For iPhone, iPod touch and iPad
Grooveshark app was among the many other apps one would love to have on their iOS device. And it's no secret that the official Grooveshark app was pulled down from the iTunes Store, mainly due to the copyright infringement lawsuit from music companies.
After this debacle, Grooveshark decided to jump into the world of Cydia. So,even though the app is removed from the app store, iOS users who have jailbroken their device can still enjoy streaming the free music from the Grooveshark App. That's right, if you have a jailbroken iPod touch, iPhone or iPad, then you can easily install the Grooveshark App.
How to Install GrooveShark App on iPhone, iPod touch and iPad
To install the app, you need Wi-Fi access. Or you can also download the Grooveshark deb file and install the app by transferring to your iOS device. But I'd prefer doing this via Wi-Fi as it is much easier.
So, to install Grooveshark App — tap the Cydia icon and go to Manage –> Sources –> Edit –> Add the BigBoss repository url (skip this if you have already added the Bigboss repo). Url to add: http://moreinfo.thebigboss.org
The next step is to search for the Grooveshark application. Simply tap on the search and look up for 'Grooveshark' as shown in the screenshot below. Confirm and install the application.
Quit from cydia once the process is complete, and open up the installed Grooveshark app and register an account.
It takes 10 seconds to sign-up for the trial access. Once done, you can stream popular music library, access favorite songs and switch to radio stations. The music playback screen looks fantastic to say the least! 😉
Note: This works with all the versions of iPhone and iPod touch (iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, iPhone 3G, iPod touch 4G, iPod touch 3G, iPod touch 2G, etc.). Although I haven't tested this with the Apple iPad, but I do believe it should work flawlessly. Give it a try and let me know…

There are far better plans for arms control than the one Obama is pushing.
On September 24, President Obama will be campaigning again, not on Jay Leno's program or the Sunday talk shows, but at a UN Security Council summit on nuclear nonproliferation and disarmament. Unfortunately, his UN Security Council appearance — a first for a U.S. president — is focused on pushing an arms-control agenda and a five-page draft UN resolution that is not all that well thought out.
And what exactly might this agenda be? Roughly, the same one Mr. Obama is trying to sell to at least 67 members of the U.S. Senate. It would include cuts in nuclear-weapons systems agreed on with the Russians under a new Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (START), the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty, and an international treaty on cutting off the production of military fissile material.
These nuclear-control understandings — Obama's new nuclear-control triad — have a solid Cold War legacy. The Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty and the Fissile Material Cutoff Treaty were first suggested in the 1950s; START came from arms-control talks begun in the 1960s.
#ad#The president's hope is that formalizing them will provide the "momentum" to move the world toward zero nuclear arms. And he has a timetable. A new START must be signed before the old one expires on December 5, 2009, and ratified sometime before the conclusion of the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty Review Conference in May of 2010. Then, Congress should vote on the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty no later than 2011, and the fissile-material cutoff treaty needs to be concluded before Obama's first term ends in January 2013.
The good news, senior Obama officials insist, is that meeting this schedule is feasible. The bad news, they say, is that failing to do so risks the scuttling of the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty (which requires "good faith" efforts at disarmament), followed, eventually, by a global slide toward nuclear chaos.
If this all seems a bit reminiscent of Obama's now-or-never health-care-reform campaign, there is a good reason why. It is. Time, we are told again, is running out, and we must vote up or down on a very specific set of agreements.
Obama's critics in the House were immediately put off by the December 5, 2009, deadline the president set for reaching a START agreement. This, they argue, hands too much leverage to Moscow. In a letter to President Obama, they cautioned him not to proceed with Russia's proposal for deep cuts to U.S. bomber and unmanned delivery systems that are also useful for conducting conventional strikes.
Furthermore, cutting U.S. nuclear delivery systems down to as few as 500, as the Russians suggested, "may well lead to the elimination of at least one leg of our nuclear triad" — i.e., bombers, land-based ballistic missiles, and submarine-based ballistic missiles. Finally, the congressional critics are disturbed that no provision had yet been made to get the Russians to reduce the number of their deployed shorter-range nuclear weapons (they have some 3,800; the U.S. has roughly only one-tenth as many). None of these Republicans, it should be noted, oppose extending the inspection provisions of START, which run out on December 5, 2009. These could be extended with an executive agreement.
As for a comprehensive test ban, opposition on the Hill is likely to be even more intense. Obama lacks the 67 Senate votes required to ratify. Expect continued demands that he approve a new warhead design and upgrade the existing nuclear mobilization base as a minimal quid pro quo. Most Republicans also will insist that the U.S. not assume any definition of what a nuclear test is that is stricter than what the Russians adhere to — a loophole that might well allow for renewed very-low-yield nuclear tests. All of this drama, keep in mind, is part and parcel of approving a treaty that will come into force only in the improbable case that North Korea, India, Egypt, and Pakistan deign to ratify it.
As for securing international agreement to cut off the production of fissile material to make nuclear weapons, this is even less likely. Furthermore, most hawks would point out, such an agreement would be even less verifiable than a comprehensive test ban. Not much effort will be spent fighting this one, though: It is unlikely ever to get negotiated in Geneva, much less ratified at home.
#page#Don't count on Obama's supporters backing down, though. They will continue to campaign even if this means antagonizing their opponents even further. If they were right about the critical necessity of ratifying these three agreements, this might be warranted. But, at best, it's a stretch.
The Russians, after all, were planning on getting rid of roughly 300 of their aging nuclear-armed ballistic missiles (SS-18s and SS-19s) with or without START, and U.S. nuclear deployments would be likely to go down slightly as well. More important, making much deeper cuts too quickly could easily risk increasing the nuclear threat. How? Cut too quickly and too deep and you risk tempting China to build up to match us: Beijing currently has roughly 300 deployed nuclear weapons and could triple this number with the surplus nuclear fuel it has stockpiled. As China goes, so go India, Pakistan, and, if you are not lucky, Japan. With too many cuts of the wrong type, in ten years' time you may succeed only in creating a nuclear-armed crowd consisting of near equals and an international scene resembling the powder keg of 1914 — only this time with plutonium instead of powder.
#ad#This brings us back to the question of how critical ratifying a nuclear test ban is. The U.S. hasn't tested since 1992 and has no serious plans to resume. The only state that has made a career out of testing in the last decade is North Korea, and it is unlikely to ratify such a treaty. In 1998 it was Pakistan and India. The U.S. had not tested the first bomb it used against Japan, and testing would not be critical for any other state to perfect a workable first-generation weapon. At the other end of the spectrum, states that have mastered thermonuclear design seem quite capable of maintaining their weapons without further tests. A good example here is Israel, which has tested only once. Bottom line: Burning up political capital and time to persuade the U.S. Senate to ratify a test ban won't buy much in practice.
As for banning further production of fissile material — separated plutonium and enriched uranium — to make bombs, this sounds good until you realize that it allows (encourages?) civilian production of these materials. How much sense does that make? We still don't know how to inspect civilian nuclear-fuel-making plants in a fashion that can reliably detect military diversions (hence our anxiety about Iran's activities). Then there is the price of admission: The French are now arguing that the only way to get such a ban going is to bribe China (which has not signed) by selling it a nuclear fuel plant capable of making 1,000 crude bombs' worth of plutonium a year. With arms control like this, transferring spare bombs to other nations starts to look reasonable.
Of course, if Obama's arms-control triad were the best we could do against the nuclear threats we face, spending all of our time to optimize it so as to avoid its downsides might be worth it. But, in fact, there are many more practical, less controversial measures we could and should be taking, starting with the sensible recommendations of the bipartisan congressional commission on proliferation and terrorism, on which I serve. That Obama has chosen so far to ignore these and other sound, incremental suggestions speaks volumes on how credible his own arms-control triad and his campaign to secure it are likely to be.

Кизля́рский район (, , , ) — административно-территориальная единица и муниципальное образование (муниципальный район) в составе Республики Дагестан Российской Федерации.

Административный центр — город Кизляр (не входит в состав района).

География

Кизлярский район расположен в северной части Республики Дагестан, на Прикаспийской низменности.

Граничит на севере и западе с Тарумовским, на юге — с Бабаюртовским районами Дагестана, на западе — с Чеченской Республикой, а на востоке омывается водами Каспийского моря. В юго-западной части проходит граница с городом республиканского значения Кизляром и с подчинённой ему территорией (городским округом города Кизляр).

Территория Кизлярского района расположена на Прикаспийской низменности, в устье реки Терек и его протоков, что отражается на характере растительности и ландшафта.

Ландшафт степного типа с наличием лугов, заболоченных участков, а также солончаковых пустынь.

Площадь территории района составляет — 3047,44 км².

Природа
В заболоченных низменных участках встречаются большие заросли тростника.

Животный мир представлен: рептилиями (гадюки), птицами (фазан, водоплавающие дикие утки, лысухи и др.), млекопитающими (камышовый кот, корсак, дикий кабан, ондатра, тушканчик).

В реках и на Каспии водится разнообразная рыба: осётр, севрюга, белуга, черноспинка, вобла, сазан, сом, щука, судак и пр.

 Особо охраняемые природные территории
На территории района расположен Государственный природный заказник федерального значения «Аграханский»

История
Образован на территории бывшего Кизлярского округа по проекту районирования ДАССР, утвержденному IV сессией ЦИК ДАССР 22 ноября 1928 года, как кантон, переименованный постановлением Президиума ВЦИК от 3.03.1929 года в район.

С 22 февраля 1938 года по 22 марта 1944 года находился в составе Кизлярского округа Орджоникидзевского края. С 22 марта 1944 года по 9 января 1957 года — находился в составе Грозненской области. 9 января 1957 года возвращён в состав Дагестанской АССР.

В результате разукрупнения Кизлярского района, Указом ПВС РСФСР от 3.08.1944 года был выделен Крайновский район. А Указом ПВС РСФСР от 6.10.1946 года выделен Тарумовский район. 10 августа 1960 года Крайновский район был упразднён и возвращён в состав к Кизлярского района.

Указом Президиума Верховного Совета РСФСР в 1963 году к Кизлярскому району был присоединён Тарумовский район. В марте 1965 года Кизлярский и Тарумовский районы были восстановлены в своих прежних границах.

Население

Национальный состав населения по данным Всероссийской переписи населения 2010 года:

В XX веке в результате миграционных процессов произошли значительные изменения этнического состава населения района. Доля автохтонного населения — русских (в том числе терских казаков) и ногайцев сократилась с 78,6 % (16 471 житель) в 1959 году, до 12,33 % (8294 жителя) в 2010 году и с 8,3 % (1786 человек) до 4,79 % (3220 человек) соответственно, тогда как доля переселившихся горских народов Дагестана увеличилась за тот же период: аварцев с 4,0 % (862 человека) до 46,62 % (31 371 человек), доля даргинцев — с 0,8 % (165 человек) до 19,46 % (13 092 человека), доля лезгин — с 0,01 % (3 человека) до 3,39 % (2283 человека), лакцев — с 0,1 % до 3,51 % (2361 человек).

Территориальное устройство
Кизлярский район в рамках административно-территориального устройства включает сельсоветы и сёла.

В рамках организации местного самоуправления в одноимённый муниципальный район входят 22 муниципальных образования со статусом сельского поселения, которые соответствуют сельсоветам и сёлам.

Населённые пункты
В районе 84 сельских населённых пункта:

 Упразднённые населённые пункты
Абазовское, Акайкино, Арбаколь, Бахмутский, Бессарабское, Бирючек, Бутылкино, Гренкино, имени Ларина, Остров Тюлений, Росламбейчик, Старый Бахтемир, Чаканное, Хорошевское, Шелковское.

Экономика
Экономика Кизлярского района — это в основном сельское хозяйство, включающее в себя:

1. Отгонное животноводство. Когда в зимний сезон с горных территорий в основном мелкий
рогатый скот перегоняется на более мягкие, по сравнению с горами, по климату Кизлярские пастбища.

2. Рыболовство. В силу близости Каспийского моря в прибрежных населённых пунктах рыболовство
является основной отраслью хозяйства. Немалое значение имеет также сеть каналов и озёр на территории
самого Кизлярского района, играющих непосредственную роль для нереста обитающей в Каспии рыбы.

3. Виноградарство. В районе расположен один из пяти крупнейших российских производителей коньяка — Кизлярский коньячный завод.

4. Распространено выращивание зерновых культур, в частности риса, бахчевых культур, развито овощеводство, садоводство.

Религия
 В большинстве поселений имеются мечети.
 Православные храмы района входят в состав Кизлярского благочиния Махачкалинской епархии.

Mark worked the crowd superbly. Everybody was doubled over in laughter!
Not only is Mark an excellent juggler, but he also exudes a warm and winning personality on stage.
Mark combines seldom seen technical wizardry with unsurpassed showmanship!
Mark and Marlo brought the intensity and excitement of a full Las Vegas show to our companys Christmas Party. They are even better live than on video.

The first thing to note is that the process is slightly different for (a) those who are employed and pay tax via PAYE and do not regularly complete a tax return, and (b) those who are self-employed and/or report their income on a tax return every year and pay tax on account. Those with a tax return have more options.
The relief is normally due for the tax year in which the shares were issued, in OLH's case the year ending 5th April 2014. However you can set all or part of the tax relief against your tax liability for 2012/13 or a future year if you wish. This would be pertinent if, for example, you were currently unemployed or your tax liability for the current year was less than the tax relief you're entitled to – which is 50% of your shareholding.
Complete the form on pages 3 and 4 of your SEIS3 (the HMRC certificate you have received from OLH). The details that you need about the shareholding, date of issue, the company (Osney Lock Hydro) and the HMRC office and reference number are on the printed sheet that is stapled to the front of the form.
If you want to claim relief for a previous year for which you either didn't receive a tax return or you did receive a tax return and have already submitted it, you need to complete pages 3 and 4 and send them to your tax office. You will see on p3 the section headed Claim to SEIS income tax relief gives you space to enter the amount on which you're claiming relief for the current year and a separate space for a claim for the previous year.
The relief is normally due for the tax year in which the shares were issued, ie the year ending 5th April 2014. However you can set all or part of the tax relief against your tax liability for 2012/13, if you wish.
It may also be possible for you to claim your tax relief in a future year, after 2014/15. We suggest you consult an accountant for any circumstances different from what's outlined above.

The Definitive Thelonious Monk
by: Thelonious Monk
(Concord Music)
The Definitive Thelonious Monk on Prestige and Riverside culls a broad span of Monk's songs from 1952 up until 1960. North Carolina born Thelonious Monk was already playing in Harlem clubs by 1941, yet it took a while for his talent to ignite in New York City.
These 21 songs rank as unmitigated joy. The recordings demonstrate Monk's sheer talent, versatility and genius operating at an apex. Other musicians on this collection include Ahmed Abdul-Malik, Art Blakey, John Coltrane, Curly Russell, Tommy Potter, Milt Jackson, Wilbur Ware, Ray Copeland, Miles Davis, Oscar Pettiford, Max Roach, Coleman Hawkins, Sonny Rollins, Joe Gordon, Charlie Rouse, and Billy Higgins.
These Prestige and Riverside recordings afforded Monk the ability to collaborate with other jazz greats. This new release contains compositions from the albums The Thelonious Monk Trio, Thelonious Monk/Sonny Rollins, Miles Davis and the Modern Jazz Giants, Thelonious Monk Plays Duke Ellington, The Unique Thelonious Monk, Brilliant Corners, Thelonious Monk with John Coltrane, Thelonious Himself, Monk's Music, Mulligan Meets Monk, Thelonious In Action, Misterioso, The Thelonious Monk Orchestra at Town Hall, 5 By Monk By 5 and At the Blackhawk.
Ashley Kahn's detailed liner notes provide an insightful glimpse into the details and chronology of these recordings. Monk composed every song on this collection. Disc 1 begins with the light-hearted "Bye-Ya". "We See" offers another up-tempo tune featuring Art Blakey on drums, Frank Foster on tenor sax and Curly Russell on bass. "Blue Monk" contends as one of the artist's finest accomplishments--seven minutes of pure sanctuary. "I Want to Be Happy" would not resonate like it does without the expertise of tenor saxophonist Sonny Rollins.
"Bemsha Swing" finds Miles Davis' golden trumpet creeping into Monk's orbit. This song retains a medicinal quality that verifies its timelessness. "Caravan" preserves Monk's ability to play with sparse gravity. "Tea For Two" stands as one of Monk's signature songs. "Pannonica", retains a lanquid sonic landscape that exudes calm over the listener. "Brilliant Corners" finds Monk navigating with Rollins, Pettiford and Max Roach into deep waters.
Disc 2 commences with an 11-minute "Well, You Needn't" that traverses sacred jazz territory with help from his friends John Coltrane (another North Carolina native), Coleman Hawkins, Ray Copeland and Art Blakey. Each track on this collection tells an amazing story. "Off Minor (take 5)" and "Epistrophy", two Monk gems, comprise the same musicians from "Well, You Needn't" indicating the larger sound Monk sought. "Trinkle, Tinkle" originated from the classic album Thelonious Monk with John Coltrane that transcends description...this song conjures time travel. Coltrane once called Monk: "a musical architect of the highest order."
"Rhythm-a-ning" counts as Monk's collaboration with Gerry Mulligan. "Evidence" and "Nutty were both recorded in August 1958 at the legendary jazz club the Five Spot, where these songs extend beyond the last outpost of time. "Little Rootie Tootie" unleashes a wall of sound from Monk's landmark performance at Town Hall. "Straight, No Chaser" retains a late night blues sentiment and stands as another singular Monk tune. "Ruby, My Dear" exists as a classic piece of music with Monk unaccompanied on piano recorded in San Francisco. The final track on this fantastic collection, "Four In One (take 2)", counts as a high level of jazz expression.
The Definitive Thelonious Monk on Prestige and Riverside captures some of the finest music Monk ever recorded. I respectfully suggest you purchase this inimitable collection...

The goals of the Platte County Truancy Program is to assure the student's education by attending school on a regular basis, serve as a resource to the school districts within the Platte County area, and divert youth from further Court action.
The program is designed to improve the attendance of students that fail to attend school on a regular basis. The student will be placed on a level of probation depending on their referral history and behavior. Once on supervision for truancy, the student's attendance will be monitored daily. If the student's attendance improves over the required length of the probation, the case will be close.
The program is also intended to identify each student's issues and needs and provides the student with the appropriate tools to allow for them to be successful. The juvenile office has many resources and classes available to help meet these needs, which include: a conflict class, parenting class, drug education class and community service.

Where is Kalgoorlie located?
Kalgoorlie, WA
For many, the discovery of gold at Kalgoorlie represented the greatest moment of the Australian gold rushes. Beginning in New South Wales in 1851, they had quickly spread on a massive scale to Victoria in the same year and continued to proliferate in an anti-clockwise direction around the country until reaching the El Dorado that was Kalgoorlie. Like Boulder, Kalgoorlie experienced all forms of mining techniques, however, as with all of the diggings on the eastern goldfields of Western Australia, scarcity of water was always a problem. The main area of gold discovery became known as the golden mile and is described by Gavin Casey in the mining history classic, The Mile That Midas Touched.

Mason Cole
Internet Governance Advisor at Perkins Coie
Joined on July 22, 2003
Total Post Views: 62,807
Mason Cole is an Internet Governance Advisor in the Trademark, Copyright, Media & Brand Protection practice. He strategizes for clients with interests in internet domain name governance and business matters. For more than 17 years, Mason has participated in the work of the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN), the industry's governing body, including serving three terms as chair of the Registrar Stakeholder Group, a term as vice chair of the influential council of the Generic Names Support Organization (GNSO), and two terms as the GNSO's liaison to more than 170 international governments.
A longstanding innovator and leader in the internet oversight community, Mason is the founding chair of the Healthy Domains Initiative, the Domain Name Association's ambitious program of registry and registrar self-regulation. He also has contributed to the policy work of the Internet Infrastructure Coalition and Internet Commerce Association.
Prior to joining Perkins Coie, Mason was vice president of communications and industry relations at Donuts Inc., a domain name registry, where he worked with company co-founders to secure 198 of the company's now almost 250 top-level domain names and helped manage the company's ICANN relationship. As company spokesperson, he established proof-of-concept for new domains with media coverage from CNN, The Wall Street Journal, Al-Jazeera and other worldwide outlets. Mason held a similar role with Oversee.net, where he fully supervised the company's interactions with ICANN and other regulatory authorities. During his time with Oversee, he successfully prosecuted patent claims in the United States, Canada and China.
Mason was the founding publisher and editor of State of the Domain, the first-of-its-kind statistical analysis of domain name growth and trends.

COVID-19, WHOIS, and the Pressing Need for Help With Domain Name System Abuse
Related Topics: Coronavirus, Cybercrime, Cybersecurity, DNS, Domain Names, ICANN, Internet Governance, Whois
As widely reported, and not surprising, the internet is swimming in COVID-19 online scams. Criminals, accustomed to rapidly grabbing online territory during times of crisis and profiting from public fear, are working overtime in the face of the coronavirus. Unfortunately, ICANN's failure to enforce its minimal WHOIS and DNS abuse requirements has resulted in delayed mitigation efforts at a time when swift responses are needed to protect the public from COVID-19 scams. more
Domain Name Association Outlines Healthy Practices as Part of Key Initiative
Related Topics: Cybercrime, Cybersecurity, Domain Names, Brand Protection, Policy & Regulation, New TLDs
The domain name system is in good health. But it's about to get even better. The Domain Name Association (DNA), the Internet domain industry's trade association, undertook an effort in 2016 it named the Healthy Domains Initiative (HDI). It's an ambitious, self-motivated effort to build on the DNS' already secure and stable platform and meet select challenges head-on, before they develop. more
The ANA and Hand-Wringing
Related Topics: New TLDs
The Association of National Advertisers is at it again, this time spelling the death of new gTLDs barely after they emerge from the gate. In 1982, at the dawn of the video age, Motion Picture Association of America President Jack Valenti infamously told Congress, with more than one unfortunate reference to various types of violent crime, that the advent of the VCR would spell immediate and irrevocable doom to the motion picture industry, and that the device should certainly be thrown to the scrap heap even before its arrival. more
Finishing What We Started: A Level Playing Field for New gTLDs
Related Topics: Domain Names, ICANN, New TLDs
While the Internet governance debate devours headlines, it's almost easy to forget that ICANN is in the midst of the most audacious and important policy process it has ever undertaken. And while many new generic top-level domains are now live, the process of ensuring the best opportunity to fulfill their potential is not yet complete. We recently reached the milestone of 280,000 registrations in the Donuts gTLDs that are currently generally available. more
SnapNames: Why the WLS is Better for Consumers
Related Topics: DNS, Domain Names
In 2002, VeriSign, the registry for .COM and .NET domain names, proposed the idea of a centralized, registry-level "wait list" for currently registered domain names. The system would let anyone around the world get "next in line" for a name that is registered now but may become available later.
This new registry service, titled Wait List System (or WLS), would augment what is now an ad-hoc group of registrar-level services that are useful, but aren't always fully dependable or even available to the general public. more
