Heavy-duty Cook's Saw Is Strong Performer For World Designs Network
Custom sawyer depends on a Cook's AC-3662 hydraulic sawmill for uniform results.
ROCHESTER, New Hampshire — The lumber division at World Designs Network runs lean. "I'm a three-man operation – me, myself and I," explained Kenneth Jackson, owner of the company, as he laughed at the notion of having employees.
To keep pace with demand for his products, which include boards for barns, pallet stock, counter tops and more, Kenneth wanted a sawmill that would work as hard as he does. "I'm 78 years old right now, so if I want to go and work, I want to turn [the machine] on and have it work," he explained.
For Kenneth, it's axiomatic. "If you're going to buy a piece of equipment, it's best to have the best [machine] you can," he said. His choice was an Accu-Trac-3662 hydraulic sawmill from Cook's Saw Mfg., LLC in Newton, AL.
The Cook's Saw AC-3662 began service at World Designs Network (WDN) in February 2009. Kenneth had more than 4,000 hours on it when we talked with him in early May. He often runs the mill seven days a week, eight hours a day.
Kenneth launched his lumber enterprise in 1997. It took him 12 years to arrive at the Cook's Saw as the best match for his operation, but he had long depended on a Cook's sharpener and a Cook's setter to complement the equipment he had used for sawing. After a fire destroyed the portable sawmill he had been using, Kenneth decided to take a new direction.
"Knowing how good the [Cook's] setter and sharpener are," said Kenneth, got him thinking about a Cook's sawmill. Cook's Saw track record of great service factored in his decision. "Their service is just super," he said.
After much research, Kenneth concluded that Cook's Saw had the machine he wanted, a portable sawmill that was "more industrial" and "heavy duty." Moreover, the diesel-engine option on the AC-3662 made it particularly attractive. Some years earlier, Kenneth had moved from gas fuel to diesel because of the high cost of gas.
The Cook's Saw AC-3662 is powered by a 62 horsepower Perkins turbo-diesel engine. Kenneth chose the Perkins turbo diesel because he wanted maximum power. (The mill can also be fitted with electric, gas or standard diesel engines.)
"I put a lot of saw logs through there," said Kenneth of the Cook's Saw hydraulic mill. "I cut pine and hemlock in softwood –and then I cut a lot of hardwood. I go through one log-truck load of wood every ten days. I buy from loggers. I buy pallet grade logs."
In some instances, Kenneth will mill a particular tree, chosen while it was still standing. In all cases, he has great respect for the raw material and endeavors to extract the most from it.
"I enjoy putting a log on the sawmill — and saying, 'How can I get the maximum use out of the log?'" said Kenneth. "Trees take years to grow — and I don't want to waste any of it."
Technically, Kenneth retired in 1997, the year he began sawing. He continued to use the name of the architectural design firm that he had been operating. In fact, today, he sometimes combines his expertise in design with sawing.
"I just designed a barn, 34 by 60 [feet] – hay above, sheep below," said Kenneth. "I do not charge for the design if I cut all the wood."
The variety of products at WDN continues to expand. WDN sells pallet stock to Index Packaging and it has begun making countertops for Starbucks. It also makes decking boards for trailers in need of refurbishing.
Kenneth expects to begin making pellets from sawdust soon; he already has a pellet-making machine. Currently, he gives the pine sawdust away for animal bedding and sells slabs of pine and hardwood for firewood.
"I try to give service," said Kenneth. That's the one constant, as well as the single imperative. It's gratifying, said Kenneth, to look at sawn boards and see the uniformity achieved with the Cook's Saw AC-3662.
"I just sawed some two-inch by 20-inch by 40-inch timbers for a railroad company," said Kenneth. "I take the 12 boards and stack them – four wide – on a pallet." At that juncture, he explained, it's easy to see how accurate every cut is with the Cook's Saw AC-3662. "When I set it to come out for two inches, [it does]. It's perfect."
A big assist in uniform cuts is the stability of the AC-3662, which is a four-post headed mill. The four-post head dampens vibration. With no worries over shimmy, the sawyer can depend on a straight and smooth cut from the blade.
Nothing about the performance of the Cook's Saw AC-3662 is beyond what Kenneth expected, but it's nice to have expectations met. "Service is what companies need," he said. "Cook's Saw is one of the best I've ever worked with in terms of service. Another is Perkins…if I buy any other equipment, I'd put Perkins diesel in it. The service has been great and the engine is super."
Knowledge of machinery and engineering is part of Kenneth's being. He served with the U.S. Army during the Korean War and was trained as a radar operator. He worked for an electronics company and then became the owner of a foundry. Following on that, he started WDN, designing modular homes and some commercial buildings, such as a donut shop for a mini mall.
At one point, Kenneth did not know he was building a greenhouse, but he was. He built a 30-ft. by 96-ft. long heated building for his sawmill equipment, constructed to double as a place for drying wood. The idea was to share the building with his wife, Joan.
Eventually, Joan took over the entire building for her company 4J's Earthworks, which combines plants and pottery. Kenneth then built a Quonset hut for his mill equipment.
In addition to the Cook's Saw AC-3662 hydraulic sawmill, Kenneth relies on an 836 Bobcat for moving logs and a radio, remote-controlled 330 Bobcat. The 330 Bobcat "gives me a second 'person,'" he explained.
Kenneth also owns a 24-inch Timberking planer/moulder/sander that he retrofitted to function as an edger. Eight years ago, he purchased a Logosol Big Mill primarily for producing quarter-sawn oak from exceptionally big logs. He made aluminum tracks for the Logosol, adapting it to cut very large logs with a 60-inch bar saw.
World Designs Network is located in Rochester, N.H., which is home to 30,000 people. Rochester is part of Stafford County in the southeastern part of the Granite State.
A native of Florida – where his grandfather homesteaded in the 1920s, Kenneth settled in New Hampshire as an adult. He explained that part of his military service included two years in Newfoundland, so he had acclimated to the colder clime.
With the Cook's Saw AC-3662 sawmill in use virtually every day and steadfast in its reliability, Kenneth is able to focus on new opportunities for products. Index Packaging, for example, is diversifying, making countertops with a live (bark) edge; and Kenneth is working with them. He has already made countertops for Starbucks.
"I make a lot of countertops," said Kenneth. "I make mantles – I cut one from hand-picked pine, 16 feet long. I make tabletops – some square edge, some live edge."
The Cook's Saw sawmill is very well suited to the long pieces. Kenneth puts logs as long as 21 feet on the mill. When he spoke with us, he had just put a 9,000-lb., 14-ft. log on the mill. The mill handles logs weighing as much as five tons.
The AC-3662 is fully portable. Kenneth purchased his after touring the Cook's Saw facility in Alabama. A friend traveled with him and they hitched the mill to his friend's pickup and towed it back to New Hampshire.
Designed to load, turn, square, clamp and saw whole logs into lumber, the AC-3662 offers the sawyer versatility in products and in operation. The products WDN makes – from blocks for pallets to mantles – illustrates the flex built into the Cook's Saw mill. Couple that flex with the ability of one person to run the mill, as Kenneth does, and the potential of the mill is easy to envision.
Besides such standard features on the AC-3662 as a board drag back system and easy change magnetic scales, Cook's Saw offers its big portable mill with many options. The options include computer setworks, a hydraulic debarker and a log transfer deck.
Ask Kenneth for the nugget description of World Designs Network and a wry sense of humor emerges. "I kind of joke and say I make sawdust and cut a few boards in between," he said.
Of course, it's just the opposite with Kenneth tapping the capabilities of the Cook's Saw AC-3662 to make a wide range of products with a minimum of wood waste. Cook's Saw Mfg. gets high marks from Kenneth. "All the people there [are] very good and very knowledgeable," he said.
In his free time, Kenneth enjoys activities with his family – wife, adult children and grandchildren.

◄ John 19:6 ►
As soon as the chief priests and their officials saw him, they shouted, "Crucify! Crucify!" But Pilate answered, "You take him and crucify him. As for me, I find no basis for a charge against him."
When the chief priests therefore and officers saw him, they cried out, saying, Crucify him, crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Take ye him, and crucify him: for I find no fault in him.
When therefore the chief priests and the officers saw him they cried out saying, Crucify, crucify [him]. Pilate says to them, Take him ye and crucify [him], for I find no fault in him.
When therefore the chief priests and the officers saw him, they shouted, saying, "Crucify! Crucify!" Pilate said to them, "Take him yourselves, and crucify him, for I find no basis for a charge against him."
When, therefore, the chief priests and the officers did see him, they cried out, saying, 'Crucify, crucify;' Pilate saith to them, 'Take ye him -- ye, and crucify; for I find no fault in him;'

Crucify Him - Αυτον, which is necessary to the text, and which is wanting in the common editions, and is supplied by our version in Italics, is added here on the authority of almost every MS. and version of importance. As it is omitted in the common editions, it affords another proof, that they were not taken from the best MSS.

John 19:15 But they cried out, Away with him, away with him, crucify him. Pilate said to them, Shall I crucify your King?...
Matthew 27:22 Pilate said to them, What shall I do then with Jesus which is called Christ? They all say to him, Let him be crucified.
Mark 15:12-15 And Pilate answered and said again to them, What will you then that I shall do to him whom you call the King of the Jews...
Luke 22:21-23 But, behold, the hand of him that betrays me is with me on the table...
Acts 2:23 Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, you have taken, and by wicked hands have crucified and slain:
Acts 3:13-15 The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified his Son Jesus; whom you delivered up...
Acts 7:52 Which of the prophets have not your fathers persecuted? and they have slain them which showed before of the coming of the Just One...
Acts 13:27-29 For they that dwell at Jerusalem, and their rulers, because they knew him not...
Take. Pilate neither did nor could say this seriously; for crucifixion was not a Jewish but a Roman mode of punishment. The cross was made of two beams, either crossing at the top, at right angles, like a T, or in the middle of their length like an X; with a piece on the centre of the transverse beam for the accusation, and another piece projecting from the middle, on which the person sat. The cross on which our Lord suffered was of the former kind, being thus represented on all old monuments, coins, and crosses. The body was usually fastened to the upright beam by nailing the feet to it, and on the transverse piece by nailing the hands; and the person was frequently permitted to hang in this situation till he perished through agony and lack of food. This horrible punishment was usually inflicted only on slaves for the worst of crimes.
John 18:31 Then said Pilate to them, Take you him, and judge him according to your law. The Jews therefore said to him...

And there came also Nicodemus which at the first came to Jesus by night.'--JOHN xix. 38, 39.

"I thirst."--JOHN XIX. 28. This is the only utterance of our Blessed Lord in which He gave expression to His physical sufferings. Not least of these was that intolerable thirst which is the invariable result of all serious wounds, as those know well who have ever visited patients in a hospital after they have undergone a surgical operation. In this case it must have been aggravated beyond endurance by exposure to the burning heat of an Eastern sun. This word, then, spoken under such circumstances, …

But Peter followed him at a distance, right up to the courtyard of the high priest. He entered and sat down with the guards to see the outcome.
Then Pilate announced to the chief priests and the crowd, "I find no basis for a charge against this man."
So Judas came to the garden, guiding a detachment of soldiers and some officials from the chief priests and the Pharisees. They were carrying torches, lanterns and weapons.
"What is truth?" retorted Pilate. With this he went out again to the Jews gathered there and said, "I find no basis for a charge against him.
Once more Pilate came out and said to the Jews gathered there, "Look, I am bringing him out to you to let you know that I find no basis for a charge against him."

abstract	 The tetrabutylammonium (TBA) salts of the Keggin-type polyoxotungstates with general formula [XW11M(H2O)O-39]((n-m)-), where X = P, B or Si and M = Mn, Fe or Co, were evaluated as catalysts in the oxidation of styrene, alpha-methylstyrene, p-methylstyrene, alpha,p-dimethylstyrene, p-chlorostyrene, p-nitrostyrene, and p-methoxystyrene under mild conditions, using aqueous H2O2 as an eco-sustainable oxidant. In this study, the influence of the catalysts and of the different styrene substituents on the oxidation reaction profile was evaluated in terms of conversion and selectivity. For all the performed catalytic studies, the main product results from the oxidative cleavage of the vinyl double bond, except in the case of the oxidation of p-methoxystyrene catalysed by BW11Mn, for which p-methoxyphenol is the main product. The catalysts BW11Mn and SiW11Co give rise to 100% conversion for almost all of the substrates, excluding p-methoxystyrene and p-nitrostyrene for both catalysts and alpha,p-dimethylstyrene only in the case of BW11Mn. The selectivity for C=C cleavage products resulting from the oxidative cleavage of the vinyl double bond can be as high as 98%, reaching 98% conversion for p-nitrostyrene when SiW11Co was used as a catalyst. Possible pathways are discussed and the oxidation of a few presumed intermediates was carried out. The systematic study of several substituted styrene derivatives suggests a possible reactivity order for these compounds in the catalytic system considered.

On behalf of Auxilium Law Group, PLC on Friday, January 25, 2019.
There may be a way for construction workers to reduce some wear and tear on their bodies. A recent study by researchers at the University of California, Berkley found that electric drills are much safer for workers to use than pneumatic drills.
The researchers used both types of drill to cut three 100 mm holes into cured concrete blocks. They found the drills had a similar level of effectiveness. However, the way the drills affect your body is much different.
In the study, both drills threw off silica dust, and both at levels that are higher than the limit Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requires. However, the electric drill threw off dust at 11 times the OSHA limit, while the pneumatic drill produced dust at 444 times the limit.
Inhaling silica dust can cause numerous health problems. It can lead to lung cancer or silicosis. Silicosis occurs when scar tissue builds up in your lungs from repeated exposure to silica dust. Symptoms may not appear for 20 years, or workers can experience accelerated or chronic silicosis. Both accelerated and chronic silicosis occur much sooner, from within 5 years or as soon as a few months with chronic silicosis.
Silicosis starts with shortness of breath and can lead to chest pain, fatigue and respiratory failure. Weight loss and weakness are also symptoms, particularly in cases of acute or accelerated silicosis. It is an incurable disease.
Pneumatic drills are also significantly louder than electric drills. This can lead to hearing loss for workers over time. A pneumatic drill vibrates much more than an electric drill. It vibrates five times higher, and this causes more wear on your body.
If you were injured on the jobsite, you have a right to workers' compensation benefits. These benefits should cover your medical bills, wages, rehabilitation and trips back and forth to the doctor. However, not all employers treat workers fairly. They may push you to return to work too early, underpay on benefits or not provide all the medical help you need. You do have the right to a full recovery, and you can hold your employer for failing to provide care.

Review: Love, Trauma and Rebirth Drive Trey Edward Shults' 'Waves' To Greatness
There are moments in our lives that divide our psyches. Intense, unrelenting trauma can destroy a person and forever change them. There are dozens of examples across film and literature, from pop culture gods like Voldemort to quiet pages of Of Mouse and Men. More often than not, these hurricane moments pull others into the storm, and this destruction can be the most fertile ground for exploration. Trey Edward Shults brings this exploration to life in gorgeous and absurdly personal Waves. There are before and after moments throughout the film, but one thing is clear: Shults will be known as a very good director before Waves, and a master after.
Waves opens on Tyler (Kelvin Harrison Jr.), a young man growing up in South Florida. He wrestles, parties with his friends, and has fallen in love with his girlfriend Alexis (Alexa Demie). At home, he has a seemingly perfect life. His sister Emily (Taylor Russell) keeps to herself in her room, his step-mother (Renée Elise Goldsberry) cares for him, and his father (Sterling K. Brown) pushes him to excel. Yet beneath the surface, Tyler feels the pressure building.
Shults brings Waves to life as a roaring statement of visual and audio splendor. Pumping out tunes from Kanye West, Frank Ocean, and Radiohead, Shults appears to have a synesthesic ability to utilize his soundtrack for storytelling. The use of pop and rap became so integral to the film, it was misreported to be a musical early in its development. When "I Am a God" or "Backseat Freestyle" fade into the background, Atticus Ross and Trent Reznor pick up the pieces with a haunting score. The film's use of color further immerses you, and the stylistic cinematography from Drew Daniels recalls Malik's best work. The bright pinks, blues, and reds lead to some of the best use of bright fluorescent colors since Her. Paired with the music, Waves combines the visual audacity of bright colors with the roaring soundtrack to create a Fantasia-like dream aesthetic.
Yet even more interesting, Waves' two-part structure cannot be ignored as an impressively daring storytelling tactic. There are moments before trauma and after trauma. There's a real chance that you'll hate the film at some point. I must confess, I felt disconnected from the story for some time. Yet the crescendo of the film crashes down on you and sweeps you away. Shults showcases the broken pieces of the people in life and recontextualizes them into a harrowing tale of love.
The entire cast comes to play, and its nearly impossible to single out a performer from the cast. The closest must be Russell, who earns breakout status for the moving portrayal of Emily. Her quiet disposition gives way to an emotional avalanche, and you want to reach into the screen and hug her. Luckily, Brown's intense and loving role as her father is there to try to pick up the pieces. Despite the jokes about Brown as a tear-jerking, emotional actor, Brown's range comes out in full force. In limited screentime, you can read every emotion across his face, and his world-view intimately shapes the events in question.
At the same time, Goldsberry and Harrison soar to their own heights. Harrison will become a superstar in the vein of Michael B. Jordan. He channels rage and charisma in similar, but even that undersells his incredible performance. To go from the young and quiet boy in Shults' It Comes at Night to this tornado of a young man in Waves, it's clear we have a prodigy on our hands. Goldsberry nearly stole the movie for me in one confrontation, and when she's on-screen it is impossible to take your eyes off her. It's truly one of the best performances of Motherhood this decade, even with the baggage she carries. With each of our four performers operating at different frequencies, the combined power creates an undeniably rich text of emotion and love.
Waves will likely be overlooked this year as the most recent film in the A24 "Florida Series," including the experimental and pretty films Moonlight, Spring Breakers, and The Florida Project. Yet each of these films takes different approaches to their material, and somehow Waves might be the loudest of all. Shults announced himself as a must-watch director when Krisha turned heads in 2015. Waves is the most ambitious and emotional film of his young career. It's one of 2019 best and earns strong consideration to be included in any best of the decade list currently under construction.
GRADE: (★★★½)

Faces and Places: Bill Sanders
Bill Sanders owns the Rocky Top Ranch near Grasmere. He has been actively stewarding this land for decades. Formerly a veterinarian, he now focuses his energy on improving and conserving his land. He demonstrates a landowner ethic and leadership in private land conservation. This is his story…
After the turn of the century, my wife and I were looking at a disgustingly abused piece of land close to Grasmere BC. We said, "Who would want this? There are too many trees, no water, and no fences. It's overgrazed with noxious weeds, shin-tangle and no grass, a real fire hazard." We may have said that, but as soon as we met someone else who was also interested in this piece of property, we bought it. Fools rush in . . . .
As experienced stewards of pastures, we knew something about grasslands but we felt we knew little about this "forest" in the Rocky Mountain Trench. Finding any sources of information proved difficult. Turns out this ecosystem was also supposed to be grasslands, not as flat and treeless as we were used to but prettier. It's supposed to be a fire maintained grassland ecosystem with trees and topography.
The lack of information was our biggest challenge. We knew we wanted fewer, bigger and better trees but how many trees? How far apart? We knew we wanted more and better grass but how and which type? They say the teacher appears when you are ready for the lesson.
The Rocky Mountain Trench Ecosystem Restoration Program appeared and saved us. All we had to do was show interest. They provided published scientific research about this ecosystem explaining what it did look like in the past and what it should look like and how best to reclaim it. They put on seminars with those researchers explaining the science. But best of all was the people. They had a passion to get 'er done. Those people made it seem like they wanted everybody to succeed with this common goal for the common good. They wanted to successfully reclaim the whole ecosystem, one piece of land at a time. They were eager to share information. If they did not have it, they provided other sources. One source was a walking rolodex.
It turns out that was the easy part. It's taken years of investment and physical labour. It's no wonder the original stewards used fire; so much easier and natural. The RDEK weed program and Jaffray Logging were also supportive and very helpful.
Although we are a long way from finished it is important to look back at what has been accomplished. The biodiversity and abundance of our flora and fauna are very pleasing and much more satisfying to us when we walk our trails. We even have a Lewis's Woodpecker that visits us occasionally. The elk do an excellent job of managing our grassland. So well that I do believe there is enough grass that it would benefit even more from some cattle. Holistic grass management is very intriguing, a subject I would like to learn more about. Grassland and grazers evolved together and each benefit from the symbiotic relationship.
Well, that's our story. Without the support and shared enthusiasm of a few people, I'm not sure that we would have attempted such an arduous task.

Released on DVD in February, Such Hawks Such Hounds: Scenes from the American Hard Rock Underground is a chronological overview of the heavy metal/stoner rock genre from the 70s to the present.
It includes interviews and performances, and Geof is featured in a fairly lengthy segment discussing PENTAGRAM and the scene in the early 70s. While sadly no performance footage exists of the band, a number of their songs are heard in the film and many of Cameron Davidson's rehearsal photos are shown as well.
The DVD can be purchased on Amazon and also at the film's official website where you can also view an outtake not on the DVD of Geof discussing the somewhat legendary PENTAGRAM and KISS meeting and the long-standing rumor about them wanting to buy some of the band's songs.

Alfonso Cossa (Milan 3 November 1833-Turin 23 October 1902) was an Italian chemist.

Biography
Born to Giuseppe, who was a notable paleographer and a librarian at Biblioteca di Brera and to Giustiniana Magnocavallo. He attended High School in Milan and, in 1852, he enrolled at Almo Collegio Borromeo in Pavia, where he graduated in Medicine in 1858  with a dissertation on the history of electrochemistry. Soon after, he became an assistant professor, and later on a professor, in chemistry at the University of Pavia. In 1866, called by the Royal Commissioner in Udine Quintino Sella, he founded the Regio Istituto tecnico of Udine, of which he was a teacher and headmaster up to 1872. In the same year, he founded the Scuola superiore di Agricoltura di Portici, and was its first director from October 1872 to October 1873. He moved to Turin where he directed the Agricultural Station from 1873 to 1882 and taught agricultural chemistry at the Museo industriale.
In 1882, following Ascanio Sobrero, he was appointed professor of docimastic chemistry at Scuola d'applicazione degli ingegneri of Torino, which also managed for fifteen years (1887-1902). He was a member of several academies, both national and international, such as the Accademia dei Lincei, the Istituto Lombardo, the Reale Accademia delle Scienze of Torino, the Prussian Academy of Sciences in Berlin.

After graduating in Medicine, he got interested in chemistry, especially in its role in agriculture, following the studies of Justus von Liebig, of whom he translated some works, and this helped spreading the knowledge of the German chemist in Italy. In addition to vegetable physiology and agricultural chemistry, he was interested in pedology, mineralogy and petrography. Also, the introduction of the use of inorganic fertilizers in agriculture, mineral chemistry and inorganic chemistry were among his main interests.

2 Archdiocese of Philadelphia Priests Found Unsuitable for Ministry Due to Sex Abuse and Drug Charges
The Archdiocesan Professional Responsibilities Review Board (APRRB) made the recommendations which were accepted by Philadelphia Archbishop Chaput.
By David Chang	• Published August 19, 2018 • Updated on August 20, 2018 at 1:24 pm
Two Archdiocese of Philadelphia priests were found unsuitable for ministry after sex abuse charges for one, and drug charges for another
A Board recommended that both Reverend Andrew D. McCormick, 62, and Monsignor Gregory J. Parlante, 61, were not suitable for ministry.
"Father McCormick will either be laicized or enter into a supervised life of prayer and penance," a spokesperson wrote.
A priest who faced child sex abuse charges and another priest who faced drug and theft charges were both found unsuitable for ministry, the Archdiocese of Philadelphia announced Thursday.
The Archdiocesan Professional Responsibilities Review Board (APRRB), which serves as the confidential advisory body to Philadelphia Archbishop Charles Chaput, recommended that both Rev. Andrew D. McCormick, 62, and Monsignor Gregory J. Parlante, 61, were not suitable for ministry.
McCormick, 62, had served as pastor of Sacred Heart Parish in Swedesburg, Pennsylvania. In July 2012, he was arrested for allegedly sexually abusing an 11-year-old altar boy five years earlier.

"That arrest stemmed from a report made directly to law enforcement and had been previously unknown to the Archdiocese," a spokesperson for the Archdiocese of Philadelphia wrote.
McCormick was placed on administrative leave following the arrest. He stood for a criminal trial in March 2014 and another in March 2015. Both resulted in mistrials, however, and the criminal charges against him were formally withdrawn in April 2015.
A civil case was filed against McCormick after the trials and resolved earlier this year.
In June, the archdiocese launched an investigation into McCormick, who has not been in active ministry since his arrest. The investigation led to the board's recommendation that was accepted by Archbishop Chaput.
"Father McCormick will either be laicized or enter into a supervised life of prayer and penance," a Philadelphia archdiocese spokesperson wrote.
Parlante, 61, was also found to be unsuitable for ministry. In the spring of 2017, Parlante requested a leave of absence from Saint Cornelius Parish in Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania, where he served as pastor. In May 2017, after his departure, staff members opened a package that was delivered to the life center with Parlante's name on it. They found what they believed to be illegal drugs inside the package and reported it to police.
In January, Parlante was arrested and charged with knowing or intentional possession of a controlled substance, use or possession with intent to use drug paraphernalia and theft by unlawful taking or disposition.
Parlante was ordered to perform community service, make restitution to his former parish community for the theft of $5,500 and complete one year of probation. The archdiocese also launched their own investigation leading to the decision that he was unsuitable for ministry.
The two announcements come after a landmark grand jury report alleging that priests in six Pennsylvania dioceses molested more than 1,000 children since the 1940s — crimes that church leaders are accused of covering up. However, the Archdiocese of Philadelphia was not named in the report.

I bought some microphones a few years ago to use when I'm playing music. I can't remember exactly when I purchased them but it is certainly long enough to make them well outside of any warranty period that a manufacturer should cover, and indeed probably outside any protection that I could reasonably expect to have under consumer rights legislation. They have become a bit tired with over-use and I was talking to a friend about them because I was going to buy some replacements. Phone the company you bought them from, he suggested, they might be able to help. So I called the manufacturer, Microvox in West Yorkshire, last week to ask if they could repair them for me. They said on the phone that they'd have a look at them and let me know what needed to be done if, indeed, they were able to be repaired.
I sent them down south on Friday and received an email from the company on Tuesday (four days later including a weekend) to tell me what was wrong with them and that the work had been done and I should look out from them in the post.
As it turns out I had to go to my local sorting office to pick them up because they wouldn't fit through the letter box but I got them back within a week of sending them off.
How's that for service? Puts many big companies to shame. The company had absolutely no obligation to repair the goods for me, and they certainly were under no obligation to spend time and use replacements parts, without charging me a penny.
But where do you think I'll buy my next set of microphones, or indeed anything else that they sell?


1 On July 20, 1969, millions of curious viewers hovered around their television sets to observe history in the making as astronaut Neil Armstrong stepped onto the moon's rocky surface and uttered the famous words-"That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind." It was a moment of triumph as America celebrated the first manned lunar landing.
2 Space travel has captured the interest of people across the globe for many decades and was once considered a way to measure the success of a country's leadership in science, engineering, and national defense.
3 The United States and Russia competed with each other in developing space programs. In the 1960's and 1970's, this "space race" drove both nations to tremendous exploratory efforts.
4 Space travel began on October 4, 1957 when Russia launched Sputnik I, the first artificial satellite to circle the earth. Man-made satellites are referred to as "artificial" because they are not a natural occurrence like the moon. These satellites orbit the earth for varying lengths of time depending on their size and distance from the earth, and they collect and transmit information that is used for a variety of purposes. Artificial satellites can be categorized as weather, communication, navigation, scientific, or military satellites.
5 To stay in orbit, an artificial satellite must maintain a certain speed, or it will fall into the atmosphere and burn up. Most satellites stop working long before they fall to earth. Their batteries go dead or their electronic equipment fails, and they become useless. There are dozens of inactive satellites now circling the earth.
6 Russia's second artificial satellite, Sputnik II, was launched in November of 1957 carrying a dog named Laika, the first animal sent into orbit. As scientists studied how animals responded physically to space travel, it helped them to prepare humans for the challenges they would face under the same conditions.
7 The United States sent its first artificial satellite, Explorer I, into orbit on January 31, 1958. In the months and years following, the U.S. launched many other satellites for the purpose of gathering and transmitting information to the earth. In December of 1958, the first communications satellite was launched in a flight called Project Score. In 1959, the first weather satellite, Vanguard II, sent pictures of clouds to earth. Russia launched far fewer satellites than the United States.
8 April 12, 1961 marked the beginning of manned space flights as Russian cosmonaut, Yuri A. Gagarin orbited the earth in the spaceship Vostok I. America followed close behind launching its first manned flight on May 5, 1961 as astronaut Alan B. Shepherd, Jr. flew in Freedom 7. The flight only lasted 15 minutes, and Shepherd did not go into orbit.


How do I get my gums to stop bleeding?
Can Bleeding Gums be a sign of cancer?
Why are my gums bleeding for no reason?
They are. Yes they are dangerous. The reasons that they causes gingivitis and periodontitis. In severe conditions they can lead to cancer as medical studies have shown this. You don't want such thing to get this far do you?
There are many underlying factors that may make your gums bleed for no reason.
What are bleeding gums? These are the situation that happens when your gums are bleeding due to not removing plaque. What is plaque removal? This is the process of removing many unwanted food particles before any action of bacterial on them. When you remove these food particles, bacteria will not be able to form on them and hereby eliminating plaque.
Let us put it this way, your gums bleed because you left some smaller food particles in your mouth and with time the bacteria that are present in the mouth began to act on them here when you begin to get involved with flossing, you will experience bleeding gums.
This is called Gingivitis and this is just the beginning. There are many more signs of these for example, your gums may become soft or swollen. You may also experience redness of the gums or spaced dentition. This means that the teeth begins to separate out and allows the formation of plaque.
Germs can be trapped in these spaces and holes that have been formed and hereby leading to a more serious condition.
If things continue to deteriorate, there will be tooth loss.
You may have noticed this in some other people. When they go for a tooth check at their dentist lab, he will ask them to book an appointment and when the set time is come, he will check the took with his tools and equipment's before ascertaining the extent of damage.
Further prognosis will determine the next line of action. There are situations that the tooth will have to be removed totally.
I have heard and seen many cases like these. Total removal is necessary to prevent other teeth from getting affected. When your dentist recommend total removal, is there any other thing one can really do. In popular forums, many people who have suffer similar fate started in these way.
They complained about bleeding gums and deiced to visit the dentist and some of them have lost quite a number of their tooth.
It really sounds scary and if there is any remedy that will possibly help I bet its worth to give it a try.
Periodontitis. Which is a severe condition that resulted from bleeding gums should never be taken lightly. See your dentist if you notice that you gums seems to be getting weaker or showing signs that they are bleeding.
The incidence of gum disease increases with age. 50% of adults 30 years or older and 70% of those over 65 have gum disease. Stress is a major cause of these condition as studies have revealed. There are also some oral medications that can contribute to plague and periodontist.
Wisdom is to be watchful before and after you noticed the sudden change in dental health condition.
You need to find out if your dentist to see if any medication you have had in the past on currently on can affect your teeth. This is very important. Again, there are cases where bleeding gums and periodontist can be experience as a result of genetically factors. One may have inherited certain things and habits that generally affects one's lifestyle. Early detection is a major key I this case. You dentist assistant will check your medical history and determine if there are genetically factors and causes that can adversely affect your teeth. Do not neglect this.
So when next you are brushing your teeth and observed that a pink like substance or blood like situation happens immediately you pour out saliva then there is blood in it, you should take it serious and do something about it. There you have the sign you are seeking for. If allowed it may continue for some days and weeks. We have mentioned that you need not worry as at this point you will be able to get attention and help because this is the early stage.
Now we shall consider some of the possible treatments that can be done if one happens to encounter and finds himself in this situation. It's never an easy thing at all. How to treat this conditions of bleeding gums disease.
So let's see the various options as there is no one size fits all.
Try different things but always be guided and see some common testimonies that may be of help. I love to search for previous sufferer's and see what has helped them.
So in this article, you will get practical help not just some fictitious things. Practical help that will be truly helpful. So I took time to make some research on possible best toothpaste for bleeding gums and other home remedies that really matters.
Get a lovely tooth brush for this purpose. Let me say the reason why I mention this.
Check to ensure its not a problem of having a toothbrush that is too soft. Ask yourself why there is remains of small food particles that have build up with time. Is your brush too soft or are you not covering all the areas of your tooth properly.
The answer to this will go a long way to help you solve the issue.
Now if you have a brush that is overly soft, you may leave out some food particles which may have sticks to your tooth gum.
I want you to carefully remove very dirt and plaque in the mouth and perhaps you may have been brushing in a hasty manner. Slow down this time around because you are going to be purposeful.
Get all the leftover plague out gradually.
You need to change things a bit. I know you already have a toothpaste you love for the family. We are talking about you current situation and change is required if you are going to see any results. Perhaps your current toothpaste is fine. But try to get another one. Get another toothpaste wit a special ingredient. There are quite a number of them at the market and I will mention some of them in this article.. so what are some of the best toothpaste for bleeding gums?
Be moderate in everything you do. I believe that virtually everything we eat contain some level of sugar since sugars and needed to give us daily calories for energy. We cannot totally place a ban on eating sweetened foods but moderation should come into play in everything that you do.
If you have been consuming so much carbohydrate and sugars then the germs around our body systems have been doing much work and acting on them every time.
Control your diet. There are so many foods that colors our teeth and affects them in a negative way.
We are stress out daily and need something to relief our stress. Its true that some people could go play games and watch movies as a way of relieving the stress however other take medications and drugs. Some of these drugs can thin your gums and give room for bleeding gums. When you notice a symptoms of bleeding gums, check all recent medicines you have taken recently.
Dental checks are important if one is going to get to the root of the matter. I know not everyone out there can access this but do it if you can. Allowing the medical team to x-ray your teeth to see any faults and analyze the state of dentition is a necessary cause. So try it out and who know- it may just be what you need. And please when you arrive there, try to ask some questions on anything you do not understand. You should learn so that whatever caused the bleeding gums, after treatment, you won't repeat or make the same mistake.
parodontax toothpaste ingredients as reviews says , stannous fluoride, strengthens teeth and makes all the gaps that have been created to become tight again. This is a huge step toward tooth health gain.
Parodontax Whitening is a daily toothpaste that helps to improve gum healthy while gently whitening teeth. Use it daily to help to prevent bleeding gums, a sign of gingivitis, protect against cavities, and freshen breath.

But can the CONC compound director, the ambiguous Major Thames, protect her from the hawk-eyed attentions of her old enemies? And who in this world of competing agendas can she trust? The deeper Astra ventures into this new world, the more she realises her true quest may be to find herself.
The Chinese and the Americans are going head to head on the Moon for helium-3, the rare mineral which will solve all the Earth's energy needs. But not everyone is happy about helium-3: the oil industry is collapsing and entire corporations are going under. Someone has even tried to assassinate EMCO manager Gerald Palstein, who's trying to save the Canadian oil company by getting into the helium-3 business himself.
Billionaire Julian Orley's space-elevator technology has revolutionised space travel, but he's about to take another life-changing step. He has funded Gaia, the first hotel on the Moon, and his plan is to take a group of international investors up there and to use the trip to negotiate the finance for the construction of a second space elevator, to open up the universe to humanity.
War is breaking out in Kadingir. Still struggling to accept her role as a long prophesied icon of unification between Is-Land and Non-Land, Astra Ordott is on a journey across the wind sands to join her father and his people – the mystics of Shiimti, who claim to hold the secret of truly healing the damaged relationship between human beings and the Earth. Astra's desperate to get there quickly, but when her guide and companion, the shepherd Muzi, leads her off course into the path of a vicious sandstorm, she is forced to confront what the gods of their devastated world might be telling her: that there will be no refuge from her destiny.
Tristia is a nation overcome by intrigue and corruption. The idealistic young King Paelis is dead and the Greatcoats – legendary travelling magistrates who brought justice to the Kingdom – have been branded as traitors. But just before his head was impaled on a spike, the King swore each of his hundred and forty-four Greatcoats to a different mission.
Falcio Val Mond, First Cantor, with the help of fellow Greatcoats Kest and Brasti, has completed his King's final task: he has found his Charoites – well, one at least, and she was not quite what they expected. Now they must protect the girl from the many who would see her dead, and place her on the throne of a lawless kingdom. That would be simple enough, if it weren't for the Daishini, an equally legendary band of assassins, getting in their way, not to forget the Dukes who are determined to hold on to their fractured Kingdoms, or the fact that the heir to the throne is only thirteen years old. Oh, and the poison that is slowly killing Falcio.
Falcio, Kest, and Brasti are about to find out, because someone has figured out a way to do it and they've started with a friend.
The Dukes were already looking for ways out of their agreement to put Aline on the throne, but with the Saints turning up dead, rumours are spreading that the Gods themselves oppose her ascension. Now churches are looking to protect themselves by bringing back the military orders of religious soldiers, assassins, and (especially) Inquisitors – a move that could turn the country into a theocracy. The only way Falcio can put a stop to it is by finding the murderer. He has only one clue: a terrifying iron mask which makes the Saints vulnerable by driving them mad. But even if he can find the killer, he'll still have to face him in battle.
MANKIND IS KILLING THE AIR WE BREATHE.
Scientists have been warning for decades that we are poisoning the Earth. Now their prophecy is coming true. The oceans have become polluted, destroying a crucial link in the planet's life-support system.
Instead of joining in friendship to meet this deadly future, corrupt superpowers are plotting to secure the last remaining clean air for the privileged few.
This is the terrifying 21st-century prophecy of what we are doing to our home in space.
Once it was just a scary bedtime story. Now it has become horrifyingly real.
THE AIR IS RUNNING OUT.

Able to see ghosts in both the human and daemon worlds, Lucky de Salle is a commodity . . . and a liability. When her best friend Kayla mysteriously disappears, she and her daemon guard stumble onto a secret that makes her even more of a danger to her enemies.
Now, Hunted by Henri le Dent, the daemon who tried to see her dead, and Amaliel Cheriour, the sinister executioner of the daemon court, Lucky has to rely on her wits, her inner strength, her friends and the emerging talents that make her more than she thinks she is.
Outside the älfars' conquered lands lies a forgotten empire. Here, the survivors of a mysterious outbreak wait under the leadership of Caphalor's friend Aïsolon. Cut off by a three-hundred-foot-high rampart, they wait to be called back to their people in the recovered lands.
Meanwhile, triplets Sisaroth, Tirigon and Firüsha are accused of murder and banished to a dark underground place, full of terror. There, Sisaroth meets a dwarf, Tungdil, who will change the fate of the älfar and the dwarves forever.
Desperate to cure his son Billy of the disease Idle Hands, Wild Alan must find a way back into the Pyramid from which he was exiled. But, trapped in the barren wasteland that is the Discard – the area surrounding the Pyramid – there isn't much he can do alone.
Bloody Nora, the mapmaker, has her own reasons for wanting to get into the Pyramid; she believes that the secrets of Gleam's history can be found in the Pyramid's vaults. And she has worked with Wild Alan before.
There are more secrets there than either imagined: those vaults hold the key to destroying the Pyramid's tyranny, but saving Billy and uniting the Discard against the Pyramidders is going to be far from straightforward.
It concerns a somnambulist, the disappearance of several mediums, and a cat stuck up a tree . . . the links with the cat are negligible, but there is only one team that can investigate the seemingly supernatural disappearances of the psychics and defy the nefarious purpose behind them: Jesperson and Lane, at your service.

Q: Fetch XML from database & merge them I have a table in which a column with xml datatype has many xmls in following format.
 <Hash HashValue = "9738839398923">
     <Element1>
            <childelement1 attribute1 = "..." attribute2 = "...">
            <childelement2 attribute1 = "..." attribute2 = "...">
            <childelement3 attribute1 = "..." attribute2 = "...">
    </Element1>
    <Element2>
           ......
           ......
    </Element2>
</Hash>

Now, i want to fetch all this rows from table & merge them. I have done the fetching part & stored it in a Datatable.
For merging, i went to different solutions on this site but i couldn't get the satisfying result.
Expected Output Format:
    <Hash HashValue = "4972904980">
         .......
         ......
     </Hash>
    <Hash HashValue = "4534543">
         .......
         ......
     </Hash>
   <Hash HashValue = "536456456456">
         .......
         ......
     </Hash>

The closest I got so far is :
<Hash HashValue = "4972904980">
      <Hash HashValue = "4534543">
         .......
         ......
     </Hash>
  </Hash>

Code for above output:
            FileStream file = File.Open(fakePath, FileMode.Create);
            XElement xFileRoot = XElement.Parse(dt.Rows[0]["ColumnName"].ToString());
            XElement xFileChild = XElement.Parse(dt.Rows[1]["ColumnName"].ToString());
            xFileRoot.Add(xFileChild);
            xFileRoot.Save(file);

Above code clearly treat the second xml as child of first one which is clearly not my intention.
How to achieve my expected output?

A: For XML to be valid, there must be 1 single root element.
You are adding the next "element" as a child of the root. This makes no sense if the root and child element are the same element.
I suggest you simply make a dummy root element called? rootElement?
XmlElement xFileRoot = doc.CreateElement("rootElement");

and then
foreach(var row in dt.Rows)
{
   XElement xFileChild = XElement.Parse(row["ColumnName"].ToString());
   xFileRoot.Add(xFileChild);
}

and for all intents ignore that root element exists.
Your desired outcome in other words is not valid XML.

A: XML only allows a single root element. So you need to create that element explicitly - it can't be one of your existing elements.
One way of doing it:
        XDocument xDocument = new XDocument();
        var root = new XElement("root");
        xDocument.Add(root);

        root.Add(XElement.Parse("<entry hash='1'/>"));
        root.Add(XElement.Parse("<entry hash='2'/>"));

        var output = string.Join("\r\n", root.Elements());

Instead of the two root.Add statements, you should loop over your records.
It's not the most efficient way to create the XML - but then neither is reading the data into a DataTable - so if it is fast enough for you, then it's fine.

A nice day today, eh?
(2) Why bother planning your estate?
Why people do estate planning
You NAME a person to handle things
Your assets don't automatically jump from your (dead) name to another person. A person is almost always needed to assist. If you die having signed a will, your will contains that persons name. Or names.
In a Will, the person is called the 'Personal Representative'. Before 2010 MA law changes, this title was the 'executor.'
With a Will, the probate court actually makes the final selection. As we say, 'you nominate and the court appoints.' It's one aspect of Massachusetts probate law.
A MA revocable trust works differently
Differently, because in a trust you actually appoint the person to take over for you. That person is called the 'Successor Trustee'. When you use a Living Trust, there's no need for a probate court to appoint the person because you do it. Yourself. Without a court getting involved.
WHO gets your assets
As I wrote yesterday, if you die without leaving a will or a trust, MA law determines who will get your assets. This MA law is the 'Intestate Statute.' This law lists your nearest relatives. And that's where it goes.
Until 2010, Massachusetts law was that if you died married and had joint children, a part went to EACH. Not all to your spouse.
For many people, they didn't want it divided like this. Because the spouse needed it all. So, you could (and would) sign a will or trust to change from the default law. And it could all go to the spouse. The Will controls over the default law.
About 2010 the MA legislature changed the MA law.
Now, if you:
die married
have joint children
there's no other children of you or your spouse
THEN it all goes to the spouse. That's the newer law.
BUT if either spouse had children that were not joint between them, a complicated set of rules now apply. This area of law has grown complex --- due to societal changes in marriage patterns and children.
By having a will or a trust, you can dictate who gets your assets, within some limits. By the way, the law continues to protect a spouse from receiving zero. But the law continues to allow leaving out a child on purpose.
You can say WHEN the beneficiary receives the assets
Some people you leave money to are decent at handling money.
But some beneficiaries are too young or too old to handle the assets you leave them. Or they may have issues or problems that may get in the way.
Instead of leaving zero to a loved one with a problem, you can add a trust clause to better handle the money. To direct the money be used for them over a period of time.
This provision is called a 'subtrust.' The subtrust is more detailed than you'll typically find in a simple will.
MA estate attorneys know how to do this. They do it everyday.
In a subtrust, you direct the Successor Trustee to hold the money for the beneficiary's benefit. The Trustee decides when and how much. And gives money from time to time to beneficiary. Or pays some bills for them - say roof over head. Think food. Think education. Think no drugs.
You determine how long this situation will continue. The subtrust terminates when a beneficiary reaches a milestone. Perhaps reaching an age of 30. Or sobriety.
The Successor Trustee then distributes it. Maybe to one person or more than one. No longer in trust. Life goes on.
If the first Successor Trustee can no longer function, due to their own death or disability, another one takes over. You can make a list in your trust of future trustees, in order.
Lowering costs after your death
Some people know that your family may need to complete a court process after your death.
It's called probate. It's the process by which a court declares your will official and effective. Probate means 'to prove.' Probate means to prove the will is valid.
Some people think it's too expensive, complicated, and time-consuming. They don't know why it exists. Probate can be a delay and sometimes a real problem.
Other times a delay is no big deal and not horrible. It depends on the situation.
Dealing with a probate court can be a hassle. Going inside a courthouse can raise tensions. People may associate a courthouse with legal fights. By the way, it's always easy to get through by phone to a probate court. Staff is extremely limited for the tasks they must do.
Most families can live without the added pressure. Particularly after a loved one's death.
Some people confuse the exactness and amount of details needed for a probate process with the real, more general need to gather details after death. Details needed with or even without a probate court process. We've handled about 200 post death engagements since 1993. We've been through both probate and no-probate cases. We've seen the difference between a will and living trust after death.
In sum, probate or not, there's details galore. But probate adds to it.
Yet 'avoiding probate' should not be the only reason to do estate planning. There are more, better reasons to get estate planning done.
I'm Joel Bernstein, an estate planning attorney with over 30 years of experience. I use plain English to help you understand wills, trusts, and the other documents you need to protect your loved ones and your estate.

The History of Graffiti
By Rayjnai King
This post will examine the historical contributions of Latin American, Mexican-American, and African American teenagers and young adults in the area of graffiti, while exploring the stereotypes that shape the perspective of 20th century graffiti.
Graffiti Before New York
This is not what most people who think graffiti looks like, but this is an antecedent of graffiti from Latin America. This is an example of cultural wall painting in Havana, Cuba. As a continuation of human painting and writing on public surfaces and walls, Mexican's would design murals like the one shown below.
The murals designed during the Mexican Revolution are also considered antecedent of graffiti. Its importance goes further than its canvases being public walls. Mexican-Americans, who wrote or painted graffiti from the 1930s through the 1960s and 1970s in Los Angeles, California, were influenced by the revolutionary style of art. The contributions of Mexican-American graffiti artists are often separated from African American and Latino graffiti artists from New York because they are perceived as gang related activities, like marking their territory. Meanwhile, tagging in New York is seen as an artistic style without many negative connotations.
Early New York Graffiti
The style of graffiti that was popularized by African Americans and Latinos, contrary to popular belief, was originated in Philadelphia. In the 1960s, artists like Cornbread and Cool Earl used black markers to tag themselves on public property. During the 1970s, Topcat-126 followed in the footsteps on Cornbread and Cool Earl and brung tagging to New York. Topcat used his nickname and street number as his tagging signature. When graffiti moved to New York, there were new titles given to graffiti artists such as; writers, bombers, tiggers, and piecers.
Writers, like Topcat-126, started tagging on trains, subway cars, and under the train tracks. The main goal of tagging was to see how many places they could bomb with their signature. This was very popular among working-class Latino and African American teenagers in Washington Heights, Brooklyn, and the Bronx.
The Transition to Modern Graffiti
In the younger years of graffiti, black markers were the only medium available from taggers. Once graffiti made its way to New York, the use of color spray paints were used and transformed graffiti into an art form. Some of the first artists to incorporate color spray paint were Tracey-168 and Cliff-159. Along with the medium change, the font used in graffiti shifted as well. The fonts that are popular now, like bubble letters, are considered Wild Style or '"throw up". It was named "throw up" because it was quicker to write and helped avoid getting caught by the authorities. An example of "throw up" is in the picture to the left.
As the art style evolved, the escape methods evolved too. Artist needed effective escape methods because they participated in a very illegal activity. Graffiti tagging is considered trespassing and defacing public property, which could result in being arrested. Taggers had to begin planning how they were going to tag, in an effort to not get caught. "Black books" are a result of their excessive planning. In these black books, they would sketch out their tags to save some time. They would normally work during the early mornings or late at night. Another precaution that some artist took was working in groups. It became popular to work in groups because it included enough people to lookout for cops while the other worked on the artwork. Some groups were the Fabulous Five and United Graffiti Artists.
This post examined contributions from Latin Americans, Mexican-Americans, and African Americans in graffiti and how they shaped the idea of graffiti in the 20th century.

Audubon Names Gilt Groupe's Alexis Maybank to Board of Directors
Conservation Organization Cites Maybank's Internet Marketing and Conservation Backgrounds
October 16, 2012 12:24 ET | Source: National Audubon Society
NEW YORK, Oct. 16, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Alexis Maybank, founder and chief strategy officer for Gilt Groupe and formerly an Audubon Alaska board member, has been named to the board of directors of the National Audubon Society.
"Alexis represents a new generation of conservationists," said Audubon President and CEO David Yarnold. "She understands that the future is about giving people choices and meeting them whenever and wherever they want to be engaged. Environmental groups talk a lot about building a new base. That will take real change, and Alexis looks like that change. She's an online entrepreneur and brings a refreshing depth of marketing experience that will help us grow."
"I'm thrilled to join the national board of Audubon, which is one of the most trusted brands in conservation and is also an organization that is innovating rapidly to meet the challenges and opportunities of a new millennium," said Maybank.
Maybank and a founding team conceived of and built Gilt Groupe, a membership-based e-commerce site that specializes in fashion and designer brands. Before founding Gilt Groupe, Maybank was general manager of AOL's e-commerce businesses. In 1998, she became an early member of the eBay team, where she joined the company's first strategic planning group and launched and ran eBay Canada, which became Canada's largest e-commerce business. She also helped found eBay Motors, which grew to over $2.5 billion in sales.
Maybank served on the board of Audubon Alaska – a state program of the National Audubon Society – from 2009 to 2012 and was a key member on the board's fundraising committee and an enthusiastic supporter. Her personal and family connections to the state fostered her strong interest in conservation of Alaska's wild places. She has lived on an Alaskan glacier, visited the Arctic and hitchhiked in the Andes.
Maybank has a degree in environmental science from Harvard University and an MBA from Harvard Business School. She is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations, Audubon's Women in Conservation, and Springboard Enterprises' Media/Tech Council. Named to Crain's "40 Under 40", Alexis was awarded Ernst and Young's New York Entrepreneur of the Year Award in 2010, and her book "By Invitation Only," which she coauthored with Alexandra Wilkis Wilson, reached The New York Times Best Seller list.

Stall is a site-specific 15x15' sculpture for SculptureNow at The Mount in Lenox, Massachusetts in 2017. Located near the stables of Edith Wharton, Stall is made of steel, re-claimed cello bow strings made of horse hair woven into netting. Having Tanglewood nearby furthers the relationship of the chosen materials. This site-specific memorial honors the activities and architecture of a New England past.
Below is a video of the making of Stall, while I was in residence at Bread and Butter Farm. Ethan Tischler came in to play fiddle for us while we hand tied each bundle of horse hair.

Las Vegas: Entrepreneur and fashion designer Anna Taylor is trying to bring back the corset -- not to revive Victorian lingerie but to give women a place to carry their handguns.
US firearms sales peaked at 15.7 million in 2016, according to NSSF data. Sales fell to 14 million in 2017 and are on pace to dip again in 2018. The trend reflects politics, with sales driven by fears that a Democratic president will limit gun rights.
She sewed a neoprene mouse pad into one of her corsets for her first prototype, and now has a line-up of 13 holsters for Dene Adams. Sales reached $250,000 in 2014 and grew to $1 million in 2018, she said.
Men's holsters have traditionally been designed around the belt, but because women wear a variety of outfits they need options in the bra, waist, belly, underarm, thigh, ankle, and purse. That also means women need to practice their draw from multiple angles.
Firearms companies once engaged in what is derisively called "pink it and shrink it," offering traditional guns in feminine colours and promoting smaller guns to fit a woman's hand, which is not necessarily a solution as lighter guns have more recoil.

Spotlight on Santa at Millville venue
Chris Torres
ctorres@thedailyjournal.com
MILLVILLE – A youthful holiday spirit swept the halls of the Levoy Theatre on Friday, as hundreds of area students came to enjoy the performance of a Christmas classic.
Classes from Wood School and Rieck Avenue School, both in Millville, and Landis Intermediate School in Vineland lined the aisles to watch a five-person performance of "'Twas the Night Before Christmas."
The play, which featured a compact yet elaborate wooden set with different holiday backdrops, was conducted by Theatre IV, a children's theater organization based in Richmond, Va.
The theater offered area schools deeply discounted tickets for Friday's show.
Students in Betty Lou Williams' second-grade class from Wood School dressed up for the occasion. Marina Overstreet, 7, donned a blue dress similar to Elsa, a character from the Disney movie "Frozen." Others decided to dress up in more traditional formal wear.
"We told the kids to dress up," Williams said. "They've read different versions of the story, and they'll compare and contrast them with the play today."
The students gasped their loudest when Santa Claus was spotted tiptoeing to his sleigh before making his Christmas deliveries.
"The best part was seeing the expressions on their faces," said Sueann Irwin, a second-grade teacher at Wood School. "Just seeing their jaws drop and the comments they were making was really fun. One student yelled 'I knew Santa would come!' They really enjoyed it."
The play was also a hit with the teenage students in attendance.
"I've read the story but had never seen the play," said Angela Diaz, 13. "I'm really into Christmas and like the classics, so seeing this is really cool."
Nathan Hernandez, 13, said he was eager after also reading the story when he was younger.
"I was pretty excited to see it," he said. "Me or my friends had never seen (the play) before."
Friday's performance was a first for many in the audience.
"It's our first experience in a theater," said Esther Rodriguez, 21st Century coordinator at Landis Intermediate School. "My goal is to expose them to things like this they may not normally visit. I'm excited for them."
The theater's Interim Chairman Phillip Van Embden doled out high fives and took pictures with several students after the play. The chairman said student reactions made him reflect on his own theater experiences as a child.
"I love to see them enjoy the theater," Van Embden said. "This is what it was intended for. It's to give these kids the same enjoyment and access we had as kids. It's really invigorating."
