Feldman Submitted to the Department of Urban Studies and Planning on May, 16 2002 in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master in City Planning at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology To date, the reuse of abandoned railroad rights-of-way has occurred primarily in suburban and rural areas. However, a new generation of urban rail corridor conversions appears to be underway. More urban in more places than prior rail-to-trail projects, the next generation of rail corridor conversions reflects a broader and more complex notion of rail-to-trail projects. These urban projects are more likely to begin with goals and assumptions that look beyond the traditional emphasis on recreation and commuting. They also tend to be more sensitive to changing contexts along a single right-of-way, can serve as focal points or catalysts for other development efforts and involve a wide range of actors and funding sources.

  • The Nayigation of the Connecticut River
    1903.] The Navigation of the Connecticut River. 385 THE NAYIGATION OF THE CONNECTICUT RIVER. BY W. DELOSS LOVE. THE discovery of the Connecticut river has been generally attributed hy histoi'ians to Adriaen Block. If Giovanni da Verrazano in 1524 or Estovan Gomez in 1525 sailed by its mouth, we have no record of the fact ; and it is very doubtful whether a river, whose semicircle of sand bars must have proclaimed it such, would have attracted much attention from any navigator seeking a northwest passage. In 1614, Block, having completed his yacht the Onrust [Restless], set sail from Manhattan to explore the bays and rivers to the. eastward. His vessel was well adapted to his purpose, being of sixteen tons burden, forty-four and a half feet long and eleven and a half feefc wide. He was able thus to obtain a more exact knowledge of the coast, as may be seen by the "Figurative Map," which is sup- posed to exhibit the results of his explorations.^ At the mouth of the Connecticut river he found the water quite shallow, but the draught of his yacht enabled him to cross the bar Avithout danger and the white man was soon for the first time folloAving northward the course of New Eng- land's longest river. There were few inhabitants to be seen near the mouth, but at a point which is thought to have been just above the bend near Middletown, he came upon the lodges of. the Sequins, located on both banks of thé river. Still farther up he saw an Indian village "resembling a fort for protection against the attacks of their enemies."

    MARCH 2021 Revenue Ratchet Connecticut’s Income Tax At 30 Ken Girardin Ken Girardin Ken Girardin is the Director of Policy and Research for Yankee Institute. He is a graduate of Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) in Troy, New York. The author thanks Meghan Portfolio for her assistance in the research for this paper and E.J. McMahon for his tax-policy mentorship. REVENUE RATCHET | Connecticut’s INCOME TAX at 30 Executive Summary Three decades have passed since the historic budget crisis Instead, the state has faced multiple sudden drops in tax that culminated in the creation of Connecticut’s personal revenues—and responded by hiking income tax rates income tax. further, making the state increasingly dependent on volatile investment income.

  • Going Nuts in the Nutmeg State?
    Going Nuts in the Nutmeg State? A Thesis Presented to The Division of History and Social Sciences Reed College In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Bachelor of Arts Daniel Krantz Toffey May 2007 Approved for the Division (Political Science) Paul Gronke Acknowledgements Acknowledgements make me a bit uneasy, considering that nothing is done in isolation, and that there are no doubt dozens—perhaps hundreds—of people responsible for instilling within me the capability and fortitude to complete this thesis. Nonetheless, there are a few people that stand out as having a direct and substantial impact, and those few deserve to be acknowledged. First and foremost, I thank my parents for giving me the incredible opportunity to attend Reed, even in the face of staggering tuition, and an uncertain future—your generosity knows no bounds (I think this thesis comes out to about $1,000 a page.) I’d also like to thank my academic and thesis advisor, Paul Gronke, for orienting me towards new horizons of academic inquiry, and for the occasional swift kick in the pants when I needed it. In addition, my first reader, Tamara Metz was responsible for pulling my head out of the data, and helping me to consider the “big picture” of what I was attempting to accomplish. I also owe a debt of gratitude to the Charles McKinley Fund for providing access to the Cooperative Congressional Elections Study, which added considerable depth to my analyses, and to the Fautz-Ducey Public Policy fellowship, which made possible the opportunity that inspired this work.

  • ANNUAL REPORT 2017-2018 Cover Picture This Issue of the Town of Farmington Annual Report Continues the Series of Historical Pictures on the Cover
    TOWN OF FARMINGTON ANNUAL REPORT 2017-2018 Cover Picture This issue of the Town of Farmington Annual Report continues the series of historical pictures on the cover. This is the twelfth in the series. La Amistad ~~ The cover picture depicts the ship, La Amistad © 1839. ~ Photograph courtesy of Wikipedia public domain, copyright expired The Ship La Amistad was a 19th-century two-masted schooner of about 120 feet (37 m). By 1839 the schooner was owned by a Spaniard captain, Don Ramon Ferrer.[2] Strictly speaking, La Amistad was not a slave ship as it was not designed to transport large cargoes of slaves, nor did it engage in the Middle Passage of Africans to the Americas. The ship engaged in the shorter, coastwise trade around Cuba and in the Caribbean. The primary cargo carried by La Amistad was sugar-industry products. It carried a limited number of passengers and, on occasion, slaves being transported for delivery or sale. ~ Narra ve courtesy of Wikipedia The Mende “In early 1839, Portuguese slave hunters abducted a large group of African people in Sierra Leone and transported them aboard the slave ship Tecora to Havana, Cuba, for auction to the highest bidder. Two Spaniards, Don Pedro Montez and Don Jose Ruiz, purchased 53 of the captives (members of the Mende people) in Havana and loaded them aboard the schooner Amistad for a trip to a nearby plantation. Just three days into the journey, however, the would-be slaves revolted, when 25-year-old Sengbe Pieh (known as Cinqué) escaped from his shackles and set about releasing the other captives.

  • Joe Lieberman Poll
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE October 7, 2010 INTERVIEWS: DEAN DEBNAM 888-621-6988 / 919-880-4888 (serious media inquiries only please, other questions can be directed to Tom Jensen) QUESTIONS ABOUT THE POLL: TOM JENSEN 919-744-6312 Lieberman in Serious Trouble for 2012 Raleigh, N.C. – Joe Lieberman managed to leave his old party in 2006 after losing the Democratic primary to liberal insurgent Ned Lamont and still comfortably win re- election as an independent in a three-way contest. But after endorsing John McCain over Barack Obama in 2008, Connecticut voters may finally have had enough. Two-thirds of those likely to cast their ballots this fall are looking forward to voting Lieberman out of office in the next election—including 70% of Democrats, 61% of Republicans, and 63% of independents—while only a quarter are committed to re-electing him. When stacked against 5th District Congressman Chris Murphy as the Democratic candidate and two different Republicans, Lieberman fails to get more than 20% of the vote in a three-way or a third against just Murphy. Head-to-head, Murphy leads Lieberman, 47-33, winning independents 41-33, pulling 70% of Democrats, and holding Lieberman to 59% of Republicans. With Peter Schiff as the Republican nominee, Murphy gets 39% to Schiff’s 25% and Lieberman’s 19%. At 24%, Lieberman’s GOP support is less than half of Schiff’s, and Murphy still gets 14% of Republicans. Lieberman also earns only 18% of independents’ votes, and Murphy tops Schiff, 32-28. Outgoing Governor Jodi Rell would be a stronger GOP choice than Schiff, closing the Murphy advantage to 37-29 and bringing Lieberman down to 17%.
