MaxLite, Inc 12 York Ave. West Caldwell, NJ, 07006 USA Press release date: September 4, 2014
WEST CALDWELL, N.J. MaxLite brings greater power and versatility to the outdoor lighting market with the newest generation of StaxMAX LED flood lights.
MaxLite has increased the base wattage to 180W in the StaxMAX, the unique line of high-output, energy-efficient lighting that allows consumers to create custom distribution packages by mixing modules on a single fixture. The StaxMAX can be specified as a 180-, 360- or 540-watt fixture that can replace up to a 1500-watt metal halide. Each of the three modules can have a narrow, medium or wide beam angle, allowing users to have all three optics in one luminaire.
Certified by DesignLights Consortium (DLC), the StaxMAX delivers up to 56,910 lumens and qualifies for significant utility rebates nationwide. MaxLite will continue to offer the previous 135-watt base module for applications that require a lower wattage lighting solution.
With the addition of the 540-watt option, the StaxMAX truly is the most powerful and versatile outdoor fixture in the market, said Product Manager Francisco Garza. No other flood light allows the consumer to achieve multidirectional illumination and multiple beam angles from a single mounting point.
StaxMAX LED Flood Lights are designed and engineered for use in a multitude of general area, architectural and security lighting applications, including parking lots, car dealerships, sports parks, facades and marine harbors. The fixture is constructed with a die cast aluminum body that acts as a heat sink, enabling a long, L70-rated LED lifetime between 75,000 and 90,000 hours, depending on the wattage selected. A tempered glass lens seals the module to protect against dirt, dust and water ingress to an IP65 rating.
The StaxMAX is compatible with leading industry controls and sensors for additional energy savings.

OWASSO, Oklahoma -
An Owasso man is back at work after setting up a trap to catch the thief who stole his livelihood.
A crook drove away with more than $20,000 worth of lawn mowing equipment last Monday. That's when News On 6 reported the theft and Rick Byrne said without our story and social media, he probably would have never gotten his equipment back.
It's my own business, I love it. I can't see myself doing anything else. I'll die doing this, Rick Byrne said while mowing a client's yard. Last week was tough with no money, but this week I'm catching up.
Byrne was forced to temporarily close his company when he woke up on Labor Day to find a crook had been hard at work, busting a lock on his work trailer.
9/1/2014 Related Story: Thieves Take More Than $20,000 Of Equipment From Owasso Man's Business
The trailer was locked to Byrne's work truck outside his house in Owasso, and locked to it was more than $20,000 worth of lawnmowers, weed-eaters, edgers and blowers - all equipment for Byrne's mowing business, Camo Outdoor Services.
Byrne thought he might never see his stuff again, until he got a message from a stranger about a trailer for sale on Facebook.
He sent me a picture of the trailer saying, 'I think this is your trailer, this guy's trying to sell it,' Byrne said.
Despite being concerned the seller might become violent or recognize him, Byrne and his father-in-law set up a meeting with the man in Tulsa.

The Chicago Park District has tapped acclaimed architect Jeanne Gang to help it develop a long-range plan for the Museum Campus, the district will announce Wednesday.
The plan takes on added import because Mayor Rahm Emanuel wants to give Star Wars creator George Lucas 17 acres just south of the lakefront campus for the filmmakers proposed museum of narrative art. On the peninsula just to the east, the district continues to transform Northerly Island, site of the former Meigs Field airport, into new parkland.
Citing those two projects, the district said in a news release that its the ideal time to define the vision and aspirations for this central space and economic engine.
The district and Gang will work with a recently-announced group of policy experts and lakefront stakeholders that Emanuel has charged with proposing transportation improvements for the campus, which includes the Field Museum, the Shedd Aquarium, and the Adler Planetarium.
Envisioned as a serene respite from city life, the campus often suffers traffic bottlenecks when there are Chicago Bears game or concerts at Soldier Field, which is just south of the Field Museum.
In July, Lucas announced that he had selected Chicago-based Gang to design the landscape around his museum as well as a pedestrian bridge linking the building to Northerly Island. Gang, winner of a MacArthur Foundation genius grant and the designer of the Lincoln Park Nature Boardwalk, is also part of the design team that has remade the peninsula with new hills and wetlands.
Beijing architect Ma Yansong is designing the Lucas museum building.
In its news release, the park district said that the long-range campus plan would focus on recreation, education, access and sustainability. The planning effort will also include interviews, panel discussions, workshops, surveys and online research.
The district has previously used long-range plans, which are known as framework plans to guide the growth of Burnham Park, Grant Park and Northerly Island.
The museum campus was created in the mid 1990s when the northbound lanes of Lake Shore Drive were shifted west of Soldier Field. That opened a continuous swath of parkland connecting the three museums.

In a rare recognition of golf course architecture, the Florida Chapter of the American Society of Landscape Architects (FLASLA) awarded David Ferris, RLA and Sanford Golf Design its top honor, the Award of Excellence, for their work at Trump Golf Links at Ferry Point, Bronx, N.Y.
"The FLASLA Design Awards program honors projects that blend environmental and artistic principles, emphasizing beauty, function, and the environment. We recognize projects that demonstrate an inspired use of landscape architectural practices in an imaginative combination that adds to the body of the Landscape Architecture profession by bestowing it the Award of Excellence" said Jeff Brophy, FLASLA president. "Recipients are truly exceptional, unique and innovative."
The Award of Excellence was given to Sanford Golf Design and Ferris for their reclamation and transformation of New York City's longtime derelict site into a unique Irish links inspired public golf course that utilizes the Whitestone Bridge, the East River, and the Manhattan skyline as its backdrop. The project needed to address methane gas-venting, settlement, site monitoring, neighboring storm drainage and water conservation.
"I don't think that there has been another golf course project that has received this award from the Chapter," Ferris said. "This award of Excellence is our first landscape architecture design award, and I think it's extra special when a golf course project wins such a high honor."
Ferris, who has a Master of Landscape Architecture Degree and a Bachelor Degree in Turf Management from Cornell University, has been a Senior Design Associate at Sanford Golf Design for 17 years. In addition to his work at Ferry Point he has worked with John Sanford on Granite Links Golf Club, more than a dozen new, renovated or restored golf courses in Florida, as well as projects in Puerto Rico, Vietnam, Japan, the Canary Islands, and Egypt.
The Ferry Point Park landfill, which had been an eyesore and dumping ground since the 1940s, is now home to a golf course built atop a treeless 185-acre site. The 18-hole layout, set along the East River and adjacent to the Whitestone Bridge, is scheduled to open to the public next year.
The design of the golf course at Ferry Point was a collaborative effort with Jack Nicklaus. The project had special challenges, such as infrastructure, landfill closure requirements, permit approvals, methane venting and monitoring, differential settlement, erosion control during construction, post grow-in runoff, wetlands creation, and water quality.
Changing environmental regulations during the design and construction phases made the process even more complex. In addition, excavation had to be kept to a minimum to reduce the impacts of Department of Environmental Conservation's (DEC) requirement for all unearthed municipal solid waste to be removed from the site. In order to meet this challenge and create landforms that emulate an Irish links course 2,400,000 cubic yards of fill and sandy topsoil were imported over a 14-year period.
In addition to designing the facility, Sanford Golf Design was the project manager. Ferris was in the forefront of that effort as the firm's only New York Registered Landscape Architect. This did not go unnoticed by design competition jurors who were impressed by the breadth and depth of the project's scope performed by the firm and the landscape architect.
"The comments I received offered praise for not only the design but for taking on the huge role as project manager on such a large project that included oversight of the 10 design and construction management sub-consultants in our contract," Ferris said. "Also well received by the jury was our team's commitment to keep environmental stewardship at the forefront from the start of the project through completion."

GREENSBORO, N.C. Leaders of the Cone Health Healing Garden say they are ready to start construction on a two-acre $1.2 million project to help cancer patients.
Landscape Architect Sally Pagliai and her friend Mary, a cancer survivor, first started thinking about a healing garden for patients two years ago.
Both my father and my husband had cancer, Pagliai explained. I lost them both to cancer. The process of going through the whole chemotherapy treatment and being here [at Cone Health Cancer Center] an awful lot of hours, it just made sense for people to have an oasis when theyre going through a stressful time like that.
Pagliai said the staff at Wesley Long Hospital is warm and kind, and she wants employees and patients there to have a relaxing escape in nature.
The garden will include a wetland area, patios, boardwalk walkways and a community garden.
We will have raised brick beds that will be tall enough so wheelchairs can roll up to them and people can garden from their chairs.
The community has been incredibly receptive to the Healing Garden, which will be located in Greensboro not far from Friendly Center just outside the Cone Health Cancer Center.
Theyve raised $875,000 of the $1.2 million goal.
Because cancer touches all of us in some way, shape or form, people can relate to this, added Pagliai. Nature has a huge effect on helping people to heal. The whole idea of working here at this garden at this hospital has really helped me to heal also and to give back to such a wonderful community.
