pumpkins?
by Susan Sunseri LeDonne 22 Nov '19

22 Nov '19

Hi everyone, If you, like me, have pumpkins decorating your porch that you want to get rid of, why not give them to farm animals who would love to eat them? I have a colleague who can get them to some deserving animals! If you'd like to give yours, let me know and I can come and pick them up! So much better than going to a landfill or rotting in the yard! Thanks, Susan

Our preservation practices attempt to keep gravestones and monuments from deteriorating further; respect the significance of original materials and details; and stabilize, repair, and retain features wherever possible to ensure their safekeeping for future generations. To understand basic preservation and stabilization measures, participants are introduced to the LimeWorks.us Graveyard Kit and practice working with a combination of the products. The lecture, demonstrations, and hands-on exercises review the steps to prepare a natural field-mixed glue to repair small broken stone elements; using Waterglass to consolidate friable masonry; choosing the appropriate products and techniques to patch, repair, and clean sensitive stones effectively without causing damage; using Lithomex to patch stone cracks and details; and more. All the workshop tools and materials will be supplied and a light lunch is provided. Call 215-536-1776 to register for the workshop or request additional information.

Call for Nominations: 2020 Paul E. Buchanan Award <https://phmc.us5.list-manage.com/track/click?u=2072f65b1ca66b4d2cc6c2d0b&id…> The Vernacular Architecture Forum seeks nominations for the Paul E. Buchanan Award. The award was instituted by VAF in 1993 to recognize contributions to the study and preservation of vernacular architecture and the cultural landscape that do not take the form of books or published work. Hundreds of studies, reports, documentation projects, restoration projects, conservation plans, National Register nominations, exhibits, video/digital media productions and public programs are completed each year without the benefit of distribution or recognition beyond the limited audience for which they were commissioned. Nonetheless, many of these efforts can serve to inform and inspire us all. The application deadline for the 2020 Buchanan Award will be announced soon. Calls for Sessions, Presenters & More CHICAGO: CROSSROADS OF MODERN AMERICA <https://phmc.us5.list-manage.com/track/click?u=2072f65b1ca66b4d2cc6c2d0b&id…> June 3-6, 2020 Chicago, Illinois Docomomo US and Docomomo US/Chicago invite researchers, practitioners, and enthusiasts involved in the process of preservation, conservation, renovation or transformation of buildings, sites and neighborhoods of the Modern Movement to investigate the theme: “Crossroads of Modern America.” How have transformations in cities and metropolitan communities evolved to adapt the means and methods of preserving the modern? Are we currently at a Crossroads? Can contemporary issues of sustainable and "smart" cities, connected communities, and resilient regions support this preservation? What level of intervention within the often-narrow confines of preservation is needed to extend the lifespan of the modern built environment? Several sub-thematic sessions, consisting of three papers each, will be constructed based upon submitted and invited papers. This will be followed by 20 minutes for discussion. Each paper should be in English and take no more than 20 minutes to present. Abstracts must be sent in English to symposium(a)docomomo-us.org by Monday, January 13, 2020 5:00 PM and include the following required information: - Title (65 characters max) & Abstract (400 words max); - Authors information (Name, University/Company/ Organization, Country, phone, address); - Biography (200 words max). *Call for papers will be open through January 13, 2020.* Accepted participants will be notified in February 2020 and a first draft presentation will be expected in March 2020.

stolen car
by Carrie Roy 21 Nov '19

21 Nov '19

Our car was stolen this morning at 8am while I was loading it up for the day. It was running and a teenage boy in a black puffy jacket quickly jumped in the driver's seat, locked me out, and pulled away while I was holding on to the passenger side handle and shouting and my husband and toddler were standing in the doorway of the house. Luckily the toddler hadn't been put in her carseat yet and no one was hurt. There were quite a few people on the street too, so it was pretty bold! Keep a lookout for a very dark gray Subaru Forester, license plate JMG8534. We live on Wellesley, he drove to the end of the street and left up Heberton towards the park.
