August 2020 | Vol “The Voice for Business & Community” August 2020 | Vol. 19, No. 8 CHAMBER COMMENT by Steve Gilbert, Director Chamber News August 2020 “It don’t make much sense, that common sense; don’t make no sense no more.” 10th Anniversary Those words are the chorus to the song Common Sense by one of my all-time @ favorite song writers, John Prine. I was introduced to his music by a high school friend back in the 70s. His music spoke to me. It has resonated through my soul many times over the years. Recently, the lyrics flooded my mind, especially when I thought about how crazy the times we live in have become. Everywhere you turn, someone is on the attack, arguing Aug 3rd / 3-6pm / 660 Main St that their point of view is the only one. The other guy is responsible, and their political party has all the answers. Just Market Vendor Specials, turn on the news. It is one 24 hour a day argument, a very Antique Tractor, passionate one, I might add. Social media finger pointing Art Studio Kids Activity, and fear mongering are today’s methods of debate. I find that most of them lack substance and have lost any semblance Pottery Demo, Frios & of civility. With so much shouting and discourse among the Bertolone's Food Truck masses, it is no wonder I find myself asking: “Where does the REUSABLE BAG WITH PURCHASE truth really lie?” In asking that question, I was reminded of a quote from Sir Winston Churchill: “Truth is incontrovertible. Note: 2 more regular markets for the 2020 season - Panic may resent it. Ignorance may deride it. Malice may Mon 8/10(AFTER & USE 8/17, PLEASE PUT IT3-6pm BACK IN ITS PROPER at PLACE660) Main St. distort it. But there it is.” It came from his War Memoirs and was no doubt tempered by his experiences during World War II. It sure offers some common sense for today’s society. That really is what has been on my mind lately, the need for a little common sense. I have stepped back and tried to look at what is going on locally, nationally, and abroad. I have decided to take my heart out of my head and my head out of my heart in search of a clearer perspective. In my younger years, I did not have a grasp on wisdom. I really did not have the experiences to know the difference between knowledge and wisdom. My grandfather Gilbert had a saying: “The man has got a lot of book learning, but lacks the sense to get out of the rain.” It was his way of saying RIBBON CUTTING & GRAND OPENING knowledge without common sense (wisdom) is useless.

It was one of the greatest lessons I ever learned. I think we could all use a little wisdom (common sense) right now on how to continue to move this community and our nation forward.

Here and there, southeast of Orr Park and southwest of town near the cemetery are the remaining traces of the town’s last and brief fling with the Alabama iron industry. From the earliest settlement of the area, it seemed that iron was destined to be an important resource in the economic development of Montevallo. In the mid-1820s, the first documented forge producing wrought iron in central Alabama was located just a short distance down Shoal Creek from the town center. The state’s first geologist, Michael Tuomey, in 1847, heralded the “long ridge abounding in beds of fine [iron] ore” occurring near Montevallo. But despite the proximity of all the ingredients required to make iron, ore, limestone, and charcoal, nothing much happened. The nearby forge, last known as King’s Iron Works, played out in the 1850s, and during the Civil War ironmaking efforts in the area were all directed five miles southeast of Montevallo at Brierfield. Things began to look promising in the early 1880s, however it took a newcomer to get the ore rolling. Andrew Dowd Lawhon moved up from the rich blackbelt soils of Hale County, purchased ore lands, built a tram road from his ore pits to the railroad, installed a washer to separate the ore from clay and other impurities, and even constructed a commissary to supply his workmen. By 1883 the newly created Lawhon Iron Company was shipping Montevallo iron ore to blast furnaces in Anniston and all the way north to the Tecumseh Furnace at Rock Run in Cherokee County. When his daughter, Ella, Henry Rush Wells married into the iron ore business when married local boy Henry R. Wells and the Wells properties he wed the fair daughter of A. D. Lawhon. were combined with Lawhon’s, the local paper proclaimed that the ore was so plentiful, it would certainly justify the was erected to produce lumber for the proposed 50 building of a blast furnace. Yet the feast to famine, boom houses needed for employees. By February of 1900, the to bust economy of the mid-1880s quashed the dream and Montgomery Advertiser reported, “The ore mines recently all news of the iron revival around Montevallo dried up as opened by the Robinson Mining Company in Montevallo many of the state’s furnaces went in and out of operation and are developing the best quality of brown ore ever found in demand for ore went bust. the state. They will eventually employ two to three hundred men, which will be of great benefit to the town.” Not to be Then, fifteen years later, another high roller came to town. outdone, the Birmingham News added, “The Robinson Raised in the country down about Greensboro, William Mining Company are opening up their ore mines in great Gordon Robinson, by the time he came to Montevallo, shape. More than one hundred men are at work. They are owned iron mines at Ishkooda, Spring Gap, and Reeders sawing timber daily for houses for their employees. They in Jefferson County, at Champion in Blount County as well are shipping ore now by the car load.” When a sample as limestone quarries at Dolicito and Van near Birmingham of the Montevallo ore was awarded first premium at the and at Compton in Blount.

The presence of these Thermal stress tracks shows that these rocks have fallen relatively recently because aeolian processes are known to infill Ices topographic lows over time. Mapping of rockfall tracks indicate trends in frequency with orientation, which in Solar radiation � � turn depend on the latitudinal position of the crater. Craters in the equatorial belt (between 15 N and 15 S) Weathering exhibit higher frequencies of rockfall on their north-south oriented slopes compared to their east-west ones. � Craters >15 N/S have notably higher frequencies on their equator-facing slopes as opposed to the other ori­ entations. We computed solar radiation on the surface of crater slopes to compare insolation patterns with the spatial distribution of rockfalls, and found statistically significant correlations between maximum diurnal inso­ lation and rockfall frequency.

  • Martian Crater Morphology
    ANALYSIS OF THE DEPTH-DIAMETER RELATIONSHIP OF MARTIAN CRATERS A Capstone Experience Thesis Presented by Jared Howenstine Completion Date: May 2006 Approved By: Professor M. Darby Dyar, Astronomy Professor Christopher Condit, Geology Professor Judith Young, Astronomy Abstract Title: Analysis of the Depth-Diameter Relationship of Martian Craters Author: Jared Howenstine, Astronomy Approved By: Judith Young, Astronomy Approved By: M. Darby Dyar, Astronomy Approved By: Christopher Condit, Geology CE Type: Departmental Honors Project Using a gridded version of maritan topography with the computer program Gridview, this project studied the depth-diameter relationship of martian impact craters. The work encompasses 361 profiles of impacts with diameters larger than 15 kilometers and is a continuation of work that was started at the Lunar and Planetary Institute in Houston, Texas under the guidance of Dr. Walter S. Keifer. Using the most ‘pristine,’ or deepest craters in the data a depth-diameter relationship was determined: d = 0.610D 0.327 , where d is the depth of the crater and D is the diameter of the crater, both in kilometers. This relationship can then be used to estimate the theoretical depth of any impact radius, and therefore can be used to estimate the pristine shape of the crater. With a depth-diameter ratio for a particular crater, the measured depth can then be compared to this theoretical value and an estimate of the amount of material within the crater, or fill, can then be calculated. The data includes 140 named impact craters, 3 basins, and 218 other impacts. The named data encompasses all named impact structures of greater than 100 kilometers in diameter.

Cousin3, R.C. Wiens4, P.-Y. Mes- lin3, W. Rapin3 1UNLV, Las Vegas, NV [email protected] 2MPS, Göttingen, Germany 3IRAP, CNRS/UPS, Toulouse, France 4LANL, Los Alamos, NM Introduction: Soils provide an integrated record of martian surface processes. Recorded in soils is in- formation about parent material, the effect of impacts, aeolian and fluvial transport, chemical weathering from both ancient and modern Mars, and addition and loss of material. Analysis of soils can therefore provide important information about the history of Mars. Soil-forming processes in desert soils on Earth are preserved in the chemistry and morphology of those soils. Desert soils often contain desert pavement, an interlocking layer of rocks on the surface of the soil, and a dust-rich layer termed the Av horizon beneath the desert pavement [1]. Desert pavement can indicate age, with a more interlocking pavement indicating greater age [2]. Increasing age also results in a thicker dust-rich layer (Av horizon) beneath the desert pave- ment [2]. This dust-rich layer preserves not only the composition of the deposited aeolian dust, but also evidence of any interactions with liquid water. The Figure 1. NavCam image of the target Soda (indicated dust-rich layer also strongly affects how liquid water with a circle) Image credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech interacts with soils. Soils on Earth, including desert soils, can be stud- ied by analyzing depth profiles such as in soil pits or augered samples.
