The festival was originally proposed by Greene County residents Duke Dang, Charles Rosen and Todd Whitley, building on Dancers Respond- ing to AIDS’ two decades of creating unique dance performances. Thanks to foundational support from Hudson Valley homeowners and Dancers Responding to AIDS supporters Nina Matis and Alan Gosule, the festival has been able to expand, flourish and further become deep-rooted within the region. “This year’s Virtual Hudson Valley Dance Festival is surely not what we expected the festival would be just a few months ago, but the special evening we’ve put together is a celebration of the beauty, artistry and culture of the Hudson Valley,” Hurlin said. “We look forward to 2021 and coming together again in person at Historic Catskill Point, but this year, we can’t wait to bring dance directly to you.” Photo by Nina Wurzel October 2020 • GUIDE 5 Fall for Harriet Forman Barrett Forman Harriet Bisceglia Miriam ArtCelebrating 24 Years in a New Space Called … Virtual! ponsored by the Jewish Federation of Ulster County, the Fall Donskoj (photography), Jim Dratfield (photography), Stephen for Art juried art show & fundraiser will celebrate 24 years vir- Fabrico (clay), Howard Finkelson (photography), John Fisher Stually from 8 am on Sunday, October 25 through 5 pm on Friday, (photography), John Franklin (wood), Alexandra Fraser (photog- October 30.

  • Brooklyn Transit Primary Source Packet
    BROOKLYN TRANSIT PRIMARY SOURCE PACKET Student Name 1 2 INTRODUCTORY READING "New York City Transit - History and Chronology." Mta.info. Metropolitan Transit Authority. Web. 28 Dec. 2015. Adaptation In the early stages of the development of public transportation systems in New York City, all operations were run by private companies. Abraham Brower established New York City's first public transportation route in 1827, a 12-seat stagecoach that ran along Broadway in Manhattan from the Battery to Bleecker Street. By 1831, Brower had added the omnibus to his fleet. The next year, John Mason organized the New York and Harlem Railroad, a street railway that used horse-drawn cars with metal wheels and ran on a metal track. By 1855, 593 omnibuses traveled on 27 Manhattan routes and horse-drawn cars ran on street railways on Third, Fourth, Sixth, and Eighth Avenues. Toward the end of the 19th century, electricity allowed for the development of electric trolley cars, which soon replaced horses. Trolley bus lines, also called trackless trolley coaches, used overhead lines for power. Staten Island was the first borough outside Manhattan to receive these electric trolley cars in the 1920s, and then finally Brooklyn joined the fun in 1930. By 1960, however, motor buses completely replaced New York City public transit trolley cars and trolley buses. The city's first regular elevated railway (el) service began on February 14, 1870. The El ran along Greenwich Street and Ninth Avenue in Manhattan. Elevated train service dominated rapid transit for the next few decades. On September 24, 1883, a Brooklyn Bridge cable-powered railway opened between Park Row in Manhattan and Sands Street in Brooklyn, carrying passengers over the bridge and back.

  • Consider Public Service
    Consider Public Service CONSIDER PUBLIC SERVICE Paul D. Shatsoff With government under seemingly constant fire from so many quarters, it is a wonder that anyone with a choice would opt for a public-sector career. However, in spite of the scandals, administrative failures, and inefficiencies, I believe government tends to work pretty well, thanks to the millions of women and men who choose it for a career. As of 2012, there were 22 million public employees in the United States; 16 million of whom work in education. For more than three decades, I devoted my work-life to public service. There was no single event that led me to a public-sector career, but a combination of experiences and the desire to make a difference in the lives of other people. The saying that a public ser- vant “works for the people” sometimes gets lost in the day-to-day shuffle of paperwork and deliberations that are part of any govern- ment. Though I chose public service for the meaning and difference it could make, most of the positions I held were administrative or executive, but I looked for opportunities to add more meaning to my job. The most enjoyable and rewarding period of my career was when I was on the adjunct faculty for a graduate program in public administration. I would open the first class of each semester with a question: “Why did you choose to pursue a public service career?” The answers from year to year had little variation. The most common answers were, “I want to make a difference in people’s lives” and “I 173 WORKING STORIES want to get meaning out of my work.” There were a number of other answers too, such as, “I couldn’t get into the MBA program,” or “I didn’t know what else to do.” Or, “I thought it would give me steady employment and good benefits.” Not surprisingly, no one said they did it to get rich.

  • Rartioter Vol
    rartioter Vol. XII, No. 1 WINTER 1 9 7 9 BLACK DOME IN 1924 The Catskill Mountains have been known to white men for three hundred years and their valleys have been settled more than a cen- tury. It would seem as if all their summits ought by this time to be easily accessible by well known trails. Yet there are a dozen or more of the higher ones, above 3500 feet, which have no trails to their summits and which are climbed only by the exploring hiker, or perhaps a bear hunter in winter. I recently found another trackless peak, Black Dome, just under 4000 feet--3990 according to the Durham sheet of the United States Geological Survey--on a week-end climb in the northern Catskills. There is no trail over it, and the only paths that reach its flanks are faded out logging roads in the valleys north and south, attain- ing heights 1500 feet below its highest point. Black Dome is the central and highest of the three peaks that make up the Blackhead Mountains, running east and west, Black Head being the easternmost, then Black Dome and the last Thomas Cole. The other two are about fifty feet lower than the Dome. South of them is the valley of the East Kill, north that of Batavia Kill. North of Black Head runs a long ridge to Acra Point, then turning west to Windham High Peak. South this ridge runs through North Mountain and Stoppel Mountain to Kaaterskill Clove. Black Head is accessible by a good trail.

  • Regional Setting
    IV-A: Regional Setting The Batavia Kill watershed is located in the northeastern limits of the Catskill Mountains; within the Appalachian Plateau physiographic province. The headwaters of the Batavia Kill originate on the south slopes of Windham High Peak, Burnt Knob and Acra Point mountains, and the north slope of the Blackhead Range, which are some of the highest elevations in the Catskills. The Batavia Kill watershed is located entirely within Greene County. The majority of the watershed is located in the Town of Windham, with lesser portions in the Towns of Ashland and Prattsville. These three towns as well as Greene County comprise the municipal governments in the watershed. While there are several hamlets, there are no incorporated villages. A portion of the watershed is located within the protected 700,000 acre Catskill State Park. In addition, a short section of the stream at the Windham-Ashland town line carries a National Scenic River Designation from the US Park Service. While the watershed is characterized by its rural nature, it is located a convenient driving distance from several major population centers. Metropolitan New York, and the populated area of northern New Jersey are as close as 2 ½ hours by car, while the Albany/Capitol District area is approximately one hour away. Philadelphia, Boston, and Montreal are all within an easy day’s drive of the watershed. The watershed is easily accessible from the NYS Thruway, and is also bisected by NYS Route 23, one of only a few Figure IV-1 Batavia Kill Watershed Regional Location. routes that provide east-west access through the mountains.
