In the fall of 1966, nineteen year old Marco D'Giorgio has some tough choices to make with the issuance of his Notice to Report for Active Duty (draft notice) from the US Army. The recent death of his father, a colorful commercial fisherman and date rape of his girlfriend add deep angst to his already intense reality. Will he flee and run or obey his order to serve? Local Tribes is a tour de force, gripping and intense drama of a young man's search for his ultimate truths in a hostile world not of his choosing. The introduction into the story by characters from the margins of society add a bizarre texture to the already twisted reality Marco must navigate. The realization and coming to grips with hidden family secrets haunt Marco up into the stories surprizing conclusion. Written with fast-paced action scenes and vivid descriptions of the Santa Cruz coastal environs, Local Tribes gathers steam like a huge wave about to break on an unknown beach of intense emotions and uncertainty.
The writing of this book, Precision Abrasive Grinding in the 21st Century, began more than thirty-five years ago with the writing of “How To” technical briefs that went with our abrasive products so that one has a better understanding of the product and with the application could be better used. I continued to write “How To” technical briefs with and about new precision abrasive grinding products and systems. During the day, working on precision abrasive grinding applications, new ideas and information were learned. I wanted to retain this knowledge, so I decided to write the technical briefs. I wrote in the middle of the night. This was a great time to write down on a large yellow pad, my experiences of the day. This has continued for more than twenty years resulting in these two hundred sixty plus chapters and twelve sections. Unless one writes or records information, it can be lost or forgotten. In addition, you can learn more about the application and how to improve upon it by reviewing your notes and making changes. The chapters are not only a source of information for me, but now in book form, these can achieve abrasive product information for others. While writing about my precision abrasive application experiences, I wrote them in layman’s language so that all could gain and learn from me. Manufacturing, precision abrasive grinding, and life are a constant changing situation. So are the materials that are being used in all the new products. In the past, a simple metal product could be machined, heat-treated, and then ground if necessary, but now no longer is that true. Material science has developed new lightweight, hard metal, abrasive, ceramic, aerospace, medical, electronic materials that only abrasives can remove, size, shape, and finish. In the past, the use of abrasives and precision abrasive grinding was looked upon as an art . . . but not any longer as it has now become a true science. Here I’m in the year 2010 with all its problems and difficulties. War, unemployment, and all the other problems that you can think of, but here is one area with a bright light and that is manufacturing with precision abrasive grinding. It has to do with increasing productivity and making a better product at a competitive cost so that work once again comes back to USA. This will increase employment, productivity, profits, and make better products. This is why I’m having this book published. Harry G. Sachsel, CAE. E-mail: [email protected]

Ars Quatuor Coronatorum. Volume 28 Part 40
Davey Johnson is best known for managing the New York Mets, Cincinnati Reds, and Baltimore Orioles—and taking all three clubs to their respective league championship series during his time at the helm. When teams needed to improve, they hired Johnson, and he delivered, memorably leading the Mets to the 1986 World Series title. Yet even as he raised the bar of their success, all three clubs parted ways with Johnson, a pattern that puzzles him to this day. A self-termed "army brat," Johnson kept moving, managing the Los Angeles Dodgers then the Washington Nationals before announcing his retirement in 2013. But managing baseball has been just one part of Johnson's fascinating life. A true Renaissance man, Johnson has also found incredible success as a land investor, pilot, scratch golfer, scuba diving teacher, and mathematician, pioneering the use of sabermetrics in the big leagues. Now, Johnson finally takes the time to meditate on his wild and remarkable journey, with reflections on not only his All-Star playing days and years of managerial success in New York, Cincinnati, and Baltimore, but on his entire career.
