Overlooked by Many Boaters, Mount Hope Bay Offers a Host of Attractive Spots in Which to Wile Away a Day—Or Week—On the Water
DESTINATION MOUNT HOPE BAY The author’s boat, Friendship, at anchor in Church’s Cove. Overlooked by many boaters, Mount Hope Bay offers a host of attractive spots in which to wile away a day—or week—on the water. BY CAPTAIN DAVE BILL PHOTOGRAPHY BY CATE BROWN ount Hope Bay, shared by Massachusetts and Rhode Island, doesn’t get a lot of attention from boaters. But it should. The bay is flled with interesting places to dock, drop an anchor or explore in a small boat, so you could fll an entire week visiting a new spot every day. Every summer, I spend a signifcant amount of time on the bay aboard a 36- foot Union cutter, so I’ve gotten to know and love this body of water, which offers everything from interesting things to see and do to great dock-and-dine restaurants to scenic spots where one can drop the hook and take a dip. Here are some of my favorite places to visit, as well as some points of interest. The main gateway to Mount Hope Bay (which is named after a small hill on its western shore) is via the center span of the Mount Hope Bridge, with Hog Island Shoal to port and Musselbed Shoals to starboard. You can also enter, from the north, via the Taunton River, and from the south, via the Sakonnet River. Although the Army Corps of Engineers maintains a 35-foot-deep shipping channel through the bay up to Fall River, be mindful of navigational aids that mark obstructions such as Spar Island or Old Bay Rock. -

A SUMMARY of SWANA HISTORY August 2012
A SUMMARY OF SWANA HISTORY August 2012 Advancing the practice of environmentally and economically sound management of municipal solid waste in North America. Guiding Principle: Local government is responsible for municipal solid waste management, but not necessarily the ownership and/or operation of municipal solid waste management systems. TABLE OF CONTENTS INTRODUCTION HISTORICAL DEVELOPMENT OF SWANA – 1962 TO PRESENT CHAPTERS – Foundation of the Association GOVERNANCE and MANAGEMENT TECHNICAL PROGRAMS SWANA PROGRAMS AND MEMBERSHIP SERVICES TODAY INTRODUCTION: SWANA Today ALPHABETICAL LISTING OF PROGRAMS AND SERVICES (Note: Appendices and Attachments are in a separate document) INTRODUCTION As part of the celebration of the Associations 50th Anniversary, we have put together a summary of the history that makes the Association the viable and dynamic organization it is today. Each of us knows, in our own personal and professional lives, what the Association means to us – how it has contributed to each personal development, and impacted each career, through networking, training, research & development, and advocacy work, to name a few. Being there to provide the latest information and support - the foremost “community” in our ever growing industry. The formation, development and growth of the Association – starting as the Governmental Refuse Collection and Disposal Association (GRCDA) – and later becoming The Solid Waste Association of North America (SWANA), is presented in this document. The history for the years 1960 through 1996 was authored by Lanny Hickman, the Executive Director of the Association from 1978 to 1996 – and is available in SWANA’s On-Line Library in its entirety. The information provided by Lanny for those years was utilized for this summary history – and the information for the following fifteen years, until present, was completed by Associate Director, Kathy Callaghan, with the assistance of SWANA Staff. -

The Massachusetts State House Battle Flag Collection
THE MASSACHUSETTS STATE HOUSE BATTLE FLAG COLLECTION The Commonwealth’s Battle Flag Collection is composed primarily of colors carried by Massachusetts troops during armed conflict. Among these are over 300 flags issued to regiments of infantry, cavalry, light battery and heavy artillery during the Civil War. Originally displayed in Doric Hall, the flags were moved in 1900 to Memorial Hall where glass enclosed cases were constructed specifically to house these precious relics of the War of the Rebellion. Since that time, flags dating from ca. 1780 through the war in Iraq, as well as reproduction and service flags have been invested. Because of their fragile condition, all of the battle flags were removed in 1987 and are now held in storage. Images and histories are available upon request.

From Hawthorne to History: The Mythologizing of John Endecott A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Abigail F. Davis IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Edward M. Griffin June 2009 copyright Abigail F. Davis 2009 i DEDICATION This dissertation is dedicated to Dr. Edward M. Griffin advisor, mentor, friend ii ABSTRACT Since the Revolutionary War, American historians, literary artists, and social commentators have undertaken a retroactive search for an acceptable myth of origin predating the Revolution. While the war itself has been endlessly and successfully deployed as a sterling founding moment, that claim alone has proved insufficient for several reasons. First, Americans have long been ambivalent about their pre-Revolution Puritan heritage. The new republic emerging from the revolutionary effort rested on ground previously inhabited by British colonists (and others) since the 1620s, but the colonial past did not readily speak to the feisty, independent, and distinctively AAmerican” self-image that mythologized during and after the war . Additionally, by the 19 th century, when the writing of New England history came prominently into vogue, quite a few pages of the Puritan chapter had become embarrassing. Something else was needed: an event earlier than the shot heard round the world in 1775, and a governing image more manly than the standard figure of the pious Puritans. When Nathaniel Hawthorne =s stories AEndicott and the Red Cross @ and AThe May- Pole of Merry Mount @ entered the nubile world of American literature in the 1830s, Hawthorne seemed to have answered that call.
