What's an accomplished internationally renowned classical musician with a PhD from Harvard by day doing in his basement assembling skateboard gear by night? Accomplished musician, Lansing McLoskey, came to the world of music via a skateboard that he rode throughout his childhood, growing up a Mormon kid in California.

Internet: More Performers and Composers
New websites by LDS composers and performers led the new websites listed in Mormon directories this past week. Sites for composer Melanie Gunsay, singer-songwriter Jared Utley and German-language performer Maike Hamman all featured the basic features found in musician's websites, with Gunsay's perhaps the nicest site of the three, while Hamman uses the artists pages provided on the popular mp3s.com service.

Website Names Sometimes Decieving
An article in the Logan Herald Journal points out that logical domain names don't always land where you would think. Among those that Greg Watkins, president of ISP SISNA, Inc, looks at is mormon.com, which does land users at the official site for the LDS Church. But, Watkins writes, that doesn't always happen. themormons.com lands at a site called Texas Trader, an RV sales site run by a vendor in LaFeria, Texas.
