  • Section Ii Inventory and Analysis
    SECTION II INVENTORY AND ANALYSIS II. INVENTORY AND ANALYSIS A. Overview and Summary The Village of Saugerties has a little over four miles of waterfront ­ 1.5 miles on the Hudson River and about 1.3 miles on either side of the Esopus Creek (from the lighthouse to the dam). The proposed Coastal Area Boundary extends an average of some 2,000 feet inland from the shoreline, although the depth of the area varies widely. The land area withip the coastal boundary, including the Esopus Creek and the wetlands at its mouth, totals approximately 500 acres. This relatively small coastal area includes a wide variety of land uses and physical features (see Map No. 3 - Reconnaissance). The Hudson River waterfront and the mouth of the Esopus Creek contain low density "estate type" residential a,reas and several large freshwater wetlands. The long straight channel starting at the abandoned lighthouse, where the Creek empties into the Hudson (see Photo No.2), is lined with relatively new, single family homes in addition to the few water dependent uses on the creek - a boat club, two commercial marinas and a U.S. Coast Guard Station (see Photo Nos •. 3 and 4). The Creek then takes a large horseshoe curve before the navigable portion ends at the dam (see Photo No.5). On the south, inside shore, are the ruins and vestiges of the Village's extensive indus­ trial past (see Photo No.6) including a raceway which once carried water to power the substantial industrial complex. On the north side are steep, rocky slopes, except for one gap which contains several houses and the'Village's sewage treatment plant (see Photo No.7).

  • Appendix: Women Who Kept the Lights, 1776- 1947
    This PDF of the appendix of Women Who Kept the Lights was created for www. lighthousehistory.info and is copyrighted material Appendix: Women Who Kept the Lights, 1776- 1947 This appendix was initially based on the handwritten registers of lighthouse keepers and their assistants reproduced in National Archives microfilm publication no. M1373.1 Some of the handwriting in these registers was very difficult to read; for example, Ellis was read as Ellie, but corrected through correspondence. Nor could first names like Darrell be easily identified as masculine or feminine. This appendix does not include dozens of women who served for a period of months (less than a year) after a father’s or husband’s death, while they waited for the arrival of a new keeper. Nor does it include the hundreds of women who served as assistant keepers. Several of the women whose careers are detailed in this book, however, served as both assistant keepers and keepers. Two in particular—Kathleen Moore and Ida Lewis—began keeping the lights while still in their teens and spent most of their lives in lighthouses. Because their experiences as assistants have been recorded, those years are included in their chapters. The total number of women serving as principal keepers for more than a year and included in this appendix is 142; some have been added for the period both before and after the volumes listed above were recorded and were found in subsequent research; however, we do not include women who were assigned keeper duties after lighthouses were transferred to the U.S.

    The 119 Show - Live In London Available as: Blu-ray+DVD+2CD, 2CD+DVD, Digital Album Release Date: November 9th, 2018 DON’T BELIEVE IN TOMORROW The two-decade mark will be smashed. Twenty years young will be noted. And a vicennial triumph will be celebrated. For Italy’s LACUNA COIL, turning 20 will be a once-in-a-lifetime experience, not only for the Milan-based outfit, but also for their diehard fans around the globe. Together, they’ll commemorate the past—with a super-special one-off show in London and a new book titled Nothing Stands in Our Way—to venture bravely into the future. While the big Two-O is often an unkind benchmark, LACUNA COIL are facing down decade two with renewed strength, unfettered passion, and relentless drive. “We never thought we’d get to this point,” beams LACUNA COIL co-vocalist Cristina Scabbia. “That we’re still an active and growing band—we got a lot of new fans on Delirium—is exciting. I’m excited about the 20th Anniversary of LACUNA COIL. I’m excited about the book, the special show we have in London, and the shows to come. We look forward to accomplishing more things in the years to come with LACUNA COIL.” The road to now wasn’t always paved with lofty chart positions, high-profile tours, and viral music videos. LACUNA COIL worked tirelessly for their position as global metal phenoms. That they’re Italy’s top metal export shouldn’t surprise anyone. Amazingly, it all started in 1994, then as Sleep of Right and briefly as Ethereal.

Porous Empire: Foreign Visitors And The Post-Stalin Soviet State Abstract “Porous Empire” is a study of the relationship between Soviet institutions, Soviet society and the millions of foreigners who visited the USSR between the mid-1950s and the mid-1980s. “Porous Empire” traces how Soviet economic, propaganda, and state security institutions, all shaped during the isolationist Stalin period, struggled to accommodate their practices to millions of visitors with material expectations and assumed legal rights radically unlike those of Soviet citizens. While much recent Soviet historiography focuses on the ways in which the post-Stalin opening to the outside world led to the erosion of official Soviet ideology, I argue that ideological attitudes inherited from the Stalin era structured institutional responses to a growing foreign presence in Soviet life. Therefore, while Soviet institutions had to accommodate their economic practices to the growing numbers of tourists and other visitors inside the Soviet borders and were forced to concede the existence of contact zones between foreigners and Soviet citizens that loosened some of the absolute sovereignty claims of the Soviet party-statem, they remained loyal to visions of Soviet economic independence, committed to fighting the cultural Cold War, and profoundly suspicious of the outside world.
