    ARCHEOLOGICAL OVERVIEW AND ASSESSMENT BLOW-ME-DOWN FARM SAINT-GAUDENS NATIONAL HISTORIC SITE CORNISH, NEW HAMPSHIRE FINAL Prepared for: National Park Service Northeast Regional Archeology Program 115 John Street Lowell, MA 01852 Prepared by: James Lee, M.A., Principal Investigator Eryn Boyce, M.A., Historian JULY 2017 This page intentionally left blank. This page intentionally left blank. MANAGEMENT SUMMARY The following technical report describes and interprets the results of an archeological overview and assessment carried out at Blow-Me-Down Farm, part of the Saint-Gaudens National Historic Site in the Town of Cornish, Sullivan County, New Hampshire. The primary goals of this AOA were to: review existing archeological data; generate new archeological data through shovel testing and background research; catalog and assess known and potential archeological resources on this property; and make recommendations concerning the need and design of future studies (National Park Service 1997:25). The Blow-Me-Down Farm occupies a 42.6-acre parcel located between the Connecticut River to the west, New Hampshire Route 12A to the east and Blow-Me-Down Brook to the south. The property, which has a history extending back into the 18th century, served in the late 19th century as the summer home of Charles Beaman, a significant figure in the development of the Cornish Art Colony. The farm was purchased by the National Park Service in 2010 as a complementary property to the adjacent Saint-Gaudens National Historic Site listed in the National Register of Historic Places as a contributing element of the Saint-Gaudens National Historic Site Historic District in 2013.

GENDER, POWER AND DISGUISE: CROSS-DRESSING WOMEN WITHIN SHAKESPEARE AND SPENSER. Submitted by Hollyann Kaye Mellor Department of Development and Society In partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Masters by Research in English Sheffield Hallam University September 2018 Abstract Gender, Power and Disguise: Cross-Dressing Women within Shakespeare and Spenser. Master of Arts in English, 2018. By engaging with Jonathan Dollimore and Alan Sinfield’s (1994) consolidation, subversion and containment theory this dissertation explores how Edmund Spenser and William Shakespeare incorporated female crossdressers within their works to present fictional women as threatening to established Elizabethan gender codes. Transgressive female characters in these works demand particular attention given the insecure variant of patriarchy that had emerged out of Elizabeth I’s reign, and the insistent iconography of female power and constancy that was encouraged throughout the final decades of her rule. This dissertation argues that Spenser and Shakespeare presented crossdressing women as figures who had the potential to subvert established notions of patriarchy during the final decade of the sixteenth-century.

  • By: Maddie S. It Takes 84 Earth Years for It to Complete One Orbit
    Uranus By: Maddie S. It takes 84 earth years for it to complete one orbit. It's radius is 400.1 miles. At its closest it orbits Uranus appeared to be 1.7 billion miles away. At its only a blue-green ball with farthest it orbits 1.9 billion miles a smooth surface. away. Uranus is too far away to see easily without a telescope. Uranus is the seventh planet Sometimes it is just bright from the sun. It orbits farther enough to see with the naked out, along Uranus's outer eye. ring. Uranus' high powered telescope at the Keck Observatory in Hawaii creates detailed images of Uranus. Each of Uranus' hemispheres receives 42 earth years of sunlight. Uranus' rings are a mix of large chunks of matter and fine particles of dust. One spacecraft has managed to visit Uranus but it took a little creativity to get it there. The rings orbiting Uranus are thinner than those orbiting other planets. Uranus has ten moons. Ariel is Uranus's brightest moon. The moons names are Juliet, Puck Cordelia, Ophelia, Bianca, Desdemona, Portia, Rosalind, Cressida, and Belinda. Umbriel is the darkest moon on Uranus. Uranus Uranus is so far away that for about 200 years scientists could not make out how quickly it turns on its axis. Most planets turn on their axis in such a way that they are almost upright as they move about the sun. It is the only planet with an axis tipped that way, so some think of it as a sideways planet. Like most planets, Uranus has its own natural satellites, or moons.

  • Benjamin Sawyer's Grist Mill
    Benjamin Sawyer’s Grist Mill – 1794 A Brief Description of its History and Workings The Bolton Conservation Trust thanks Nancy Skinner for her generous donation of the land on which the foundations of the Sawyer Grist Mill are located and to the Bolton Historical Society for the important historical information about the Mill. Benjamin Sawyer’s Grist Mill - 1794 Benjamin Sawyer owned a saw mill and a grist mill relatively close to each other on the east side of Burnham Road and the north side of Main Street (Rt. 117). You are looking at the remains of the foundation of the grist mill. The saw mill was located on Great Brook to the right and behind the grist mill foundation. Samuel Baker had built the saw mill, a tanning yard and a small house just after his purchase of the 20 acres of land from John Osborne in 1750. The saw mill was powered by Great Brook on a seasonal (freshet) basis from a dammed pond to the west of Burnham Road. After passing through several other owners the land was purchased by Benjamin Sawyer in 1791 after which he built the grist mill just prior to 1794. Unlike the sawmill, the gristmill was powered throughout the year by water from West Pond which passed through culverts under Long Hill Road and the Great Road (now Main street). The water entered the mill from the side opposite to where you are standing and then ran under the building, through a wood channel (flume) and over what is believed (on the basis the height of the foundation) to have been an overshot water wheel and then into the channel (tailrace) to your left where it met Great Brook behind you.

  • What Is a Grist Mill 2020
    WHAT IS A GRIST MILL? A Gristmill is a facility where grain is ground into animal feed or flour. Gristmills were vital to the development of the Midwest. Without them the early settlers would not have been able to feed themselves or their livestock. Since every settler had to journey to the mill, they were a hub of many activities where families exchanged news and socialized. At one time Iowa had 500 gristmills. Grist is grain that has been ground or is in the process of being ground. It may or not be bolted (sifted) into flour or ground further. Grist is any material that is being processed by a mill. To make bread flour grain (most commonly wheat) is first cleaned to remove chaff, dirt, other seeds and debris. It is then ground to remove the Pine Mills “run” of 36” outer covering of indigestible bran and to reduce the French Millstones. white inner part of the grain to flour. The result is whole grain flour. A machine called a bolter, using different size screens, sifts out the white flour from the bran. Pine Creek Grist Mill served a wide range of needs for the local community. The mill could: Shell and clean corn for seed Grind corn into feed for livestock Grind and bolt corn into cornmeal for human consumption The corn milling plant. The bagging chutes are on the right. Clean wheat for seed Produce wheat flour for bread A farmer could trade grain for milling Clean buckwheat and rye for seed services by paying a toll.

  • Dust Phenomena Relating to Airless Bodies
    Space Sci Rev (2018) 214:98 https://doi.org/10.1007/s11214-018-0527-0 Dust Phenomena Relating to Airless Bodies J.R. Szalay1 · A.R. Poppe2 · J. Agarwal3 · D. Britt4 · I. Belskaya5 · M. Horányi6 · T. Nakamura7 · M. Sachse8 · F. Spahn 8 Received: 8 August 2017 / Accepted: 10 July 2018 © Springer Nature B.V. 2018 Abstract Airless bodies are directly exposed to ambient plasma and meteoroid fluxes, mak- ing them characteristically different from bodies whose dense atmospheres protect their surfaces from such fluxes. Direct exposure to plasma and meteoroids has important con- sequences for the formation and evolution of planetary surfaces, including altering chemical makeup and optical properties, generating neutral gas and/or dust exospheres, and leading to the generation of circumplanetary and interplanetary dust grain populations. In the past two decades, there have been many advancements in our understanding of airless bodies and their interaction with various dust populations. In this paper, we describe relevant dust phenomena on the surface and in the vicinity of airless bodies over a broad range of scale sizes from ∼ 10−3 km to ∼ 103 km, with a focus on recent developments in this field.
