The district consists of 29 properties containing 27 contributing primary buildings, one contributing site (cemetery), three contributing carriage houses and one non-contributing building in the historic core of the hamlet of Sherwood. It encompasses the entire hamlet and includes several commercial / civic structures at the intersection of New York State Route 34B and Sherwod Road. Most of the houses are one or two stories, of heavy timber frame construction and built between the 1820s and about 1910. Located within the district are the separately listed Howland Cobblestone Store and Slocum and Hannah Howland House.

Laxenburg castles are imperial palaces and castles outside Vienna, in the town of Laxenburg owned in equal parts by Vienna and Lower Austria. The castles became a Habsburg possession in 1333 and formerly served as a summer retreat, along with Schönbrunn palace, for the imperial Habsburg dynasty. Blauer Hof Palace was the birthplace of some members of the royal family, including Crown Prince Rudolf. Another castle nearby is named Franzensburg castle.
Today the castles are used for events, conferences, and concerts. The castles also acts as a museum in preserving the various paintings and furnishings contained within.
Old Laxenburg Castle became a Habsburg possession in 1333 and was extended in the 17th century by Lodovico Burnacini. The Blauer Hof (German for: blue court) or Neues Schloss (German for: new castle) was built around 1745 during the reign of empress Maria Theresa and has a Rococo interior.
The church of Laxenburg, which was the first building north of the Alps containing swung facade components (characteristics of the high baroque), was built between 1693 and 1703 by Carlo Antonio Carlone and continued between 1703 and 1724 by Matthias Steinl.
After 1780, the castle garden was rearranged as an English landscape garden. It contains several artificial ponds, and, on an island, the Franzensburg castle, named after emperor Franz I, can be found.
In 1919, the city of Vienna took over the war-damaged castle and became the property owner of the park area of Laxenburg.
After the Anschluss of Austria in 1938, the municipality of Laxenburg became part of the city Vienna. In 1954, the place became independent again and was returned to Lower Austria. In 1972, Schloss Laxenburg became the home to the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis, (IIASA), and brought together the best scientists from either side of the iron curtain to study global problems. After the Cold War, the Institute broadened its mandate from the East and West to a truly global focus and, today, it brings together researchers from all over the world to provide science-based insights into critical policy issues in international and national debates on global change.[citation needed]
Several members of the imperial family were born at Laxenburg:
Archduchess Gisela of Austria, (15 July 1856 in Laxenburg, 27 July 1932 in Munich), Archduchess of Austria-Hungary, daughter of Franz Joseph I of Austria and Elisabeth of Bavaria.
Crown Prince Rudolf (21 August 1858 in Laxenburg, 30 January 1889 in Mayerling) – son of Franz Joseph I and Elisabeth.
Archduchess Elisabeth Marie of Austria (2 September 1883 in Laxenburg, 16 March 1963 in Vienna), daughter of Crown Prince Rudolf.
Archduke Maximilian married at Laxenburg in 1917.

A rally and press conference was held on Tuesday afternoon April 10th at the Daley Center in downtown Chicago to call attention to the fact that the state of Illinois is one of fourteen states yet to pass the Equal Rights Amendment.
The Equal Rights Amendment states that: "Equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or any state on account of sex". The E.R.A, would provide legal protection for women in various ways including gender-based violence, equal pay, and pregnancy discrimination.
70% of America's poor are women. This also affects the children who depend on them.
Women make up roughly half the workforce and constitute two-thirds of minimum wage workers.
Women earn 79 and 44% of what men make adjusted for their race. The latter figure applies more to blacks and Hispanics.
Women are twice as likely to retire in poverty as men.
Passing the E.R.A. would ensure that employers could not give women less pay for doing the same work as a man.

Down here at Canterbury Heritage we're always pleased to be able to identify reader's old New Zealand photographs, but we'll have to admit that maritime history continues to be an equal interest. Accordingly we were delighted to see a mid-Victorian photograph, of great rarity and of potentially significant interest to international maritme historians, in the collection of a renowned Christchurch collector of early photography.
In a northerly aspect of the anchorage off Portland Harbour, Dorset, at some time between 1872 and 1874, the photograph depicts three Royal Navy warships at anchor.
In the foreground is the cadet training ship HMS Boscawen, launched as HMS Trafalgar in 1841. Stationed at Portland from 1872 until 1906, she was broken up in the following year.
The middle ship is the HMS Achilles, launched in 1863, she served as the guardship at Portland from 1868 until 1874. In her time the five-masted ironclad was the largest sailing vessel in the Royal Navy and mounted the greatest area of canvas ever spread by a warship of any nationality. Renamed HMS Hibernia, she became a base ship in 1902, subsequently known as HMS Egmont, then HMS Egremont, her last change of name came in 1919 as HMS Pembroke. A modified design of the extant HMS Warrior, her 63 year career ended with demolition in 1925.
In the distance is HMS Minotaur, commissioned in 1868 as the Flagship for the Channel Squadron at Portsmouth. In 1893 Minotaur was re-named as HMS Boscawen II and used as the cadet training ship at Portland until 1905. Subsequently renamed HMS Ganges, she was broken up 1922
The date ascribed to the photograph is attributed as a consequence of the stationing of the Boscawen at Portland from 1872 and the removal of two of Achilles's masts in 1875. An adjacent photograph of Portland Harbour in the same photograph album is annotated with the date of August, 1874.
At least the skies were interesting.....It was the first state to allow women the right to vote and the right to assume elected office, as well as the first state to elect a female governor. Due to this part of its history, its main nickname is "The Equality State" and its official state motto is "Equal Rights".
I briefly owned a Nikon D7000 but found large spots appearing on my images. I discovered that oil was being flicked on to the sensor when the shutter fired.
A small number of D7000 users have had similar problems and have lengthy sagas to relate about the trouble getting the problem fixed.
The problem is disbelief at Nikon service centres and equal disbelief (often delivered in an ill-mannered fashion) by Nikon fans online. Nothing is perfect and a few misbehaving D7000s may not turn out to be a big issue, but the way the owners of these cameras are treated most certainly is. It is ungracious for them to be accused of negligent use, allegedly resulting in dust contamination, when they are innocent victims.
I thought that this pair of images might better illustrate the difference between dust on a sensor and oil spots. The images were taken at similar apertures, f8 at the top and f6.3 at the bottom.
The top image was taken with a Pentax K10. It was about three years old when the shot was taken and had 40,000 shutter actuations, numerous lens changes and considerable mucky field use. The sensor has never been wet-cleaned (actually never cleaned at all except the occasional puff of air). A few small dark spots can be seen (two are arrowed) and smaller ones do show at higher apertures. They appear anywhere on the image.
The bottom image was taken by a four week old Nikon D7000 which had about 800 shutter actuations. The camera had the same lens attached over the four week period so absolutely zero lens changes. The spots are larger, rounded and predominantly appear at the bottom right (i.e. there's a bias to where they appear, not randomly like dust). I have arrowed a few but you may well see some others that form a stream of splashes running diagonally up and right. A real challenge to 'Photoshop' out due to their size. Also, bear in mind that the image was taken at f6.3 so avoiding high apertures is not going to work. Yet this hardly credible suggestion has been posted in the forums. What is the point of having aperture rings on lenses if we're told to not go beyond f5.6 or something?
I am aware that the bottom image may appear dim on some monitors (I edited the image on a Mac with a bright screen) but hopefully the spots will show up. Click on it to get a view against a dark background.
Copying this image? Please do and show to anyone you like, especially service technicians. They keep saying that haven't seen this before...repeatedly.
I hope this settles the argument but I am not counting on it (actually, by spring 2012 it seems that the problem is now widely acknowleged; it seems only Nikon has never openly written about it). Intelligent feedback welcome; unhelpful remarks may be deleted.

I grew up in New Bedford, a city that was once one of the wealthiest in the world. Those days are long past, but some of the history of the place remains in the inhabitants who migrated to the city in search of work in the local industries: whaling, textile mills, manufacturing, and fishing. Many in the city can trace their roots to mainland Portugal, the Azores, Madeira, Cape Verde, Quebec, Poland, and Ireland. As you might guess from that mix of peoples, that also means that there's a strong Catholic tradition in the area, and Easter is "the big one" holiday-wise for Catholics.
My next-door neighbor growing up, Mrs. Souza, would often bake my family a big loaf of massa sovada as a gift at Easter, and those loaves would usually have a half-dozen hard boiled eggs, shell and all, baked into the loaf as a decoration (a traditional tweak to the recipe at Easter). She never shared her recipe outside of family so far as I'm aware, and while sweet bread is easy to come by (there are numerous Portuguese bakeries that make it), I wanted to know how to bake it myself, and spent a good decade working on a recipe that I adapted from various family recipes that were contributed to things like local school fundraiser cookbooks. It was more challenging than it sounds, if only because like so many family recipes, there's a lot encoded in measurements like "add enough of" or "the usual amount of", or instructions like "until it looks right." But, I think I've landed on something that, at least to my memory, matches what Mrs. Souza used to make. My father-in-law, who is the son of Portuguese immigrants, has given it the thumbs-up, too.
The bread is sweet, but not overly sweet, and the crumb is relatively moist. The Portuguese also brought this bread with them to Hawaii, and it's popular there, too, although there it's likely to be called Hawaiian bread.
Ingredients
2 lb. all-purpose flour
10 oz. milk
8 oz. unsalted butter, softened
1 c. sugar
1 1/2 tsp. salt
1 pkg active dry yeast
1/4 c. lukewarm water (~100°F)
4 large eggs
1/2 tsp. ground mace
grated zest of 1 lemon (or 1/2 tsp. lemon extract)
grated zest of 1 orange (or 1/2 tsp. orange extract)
Directions
Sprinkle the yeast over the warm water and set aside to hydrate.
Scald the milk. Add 4 oz. of the butter, the sugar, and the salt, and stir until the butter has melted. Let cool a bit, then add the zest (or extract) and whisk in the eggs.
Put the flour in the bowl of a stand mixer. Add the milk and water mixtures. Stir with the dough hook until a single mass forms, then increase the speed and "knead" for 5 minutes. Note that the dough will be very sticky and not pull away from the sides of the bowl cleanly; this is a pretty wet dough, intentionally. Add the remaining softened butter 1 tbl. at a time, letting each addition incorporate before adding the next one. Turn out onto a floured surface, shape into a ball, and put in a large well-oiled bowl. Cover with a bit of cling wrap and a towel, and allow to rise until doubled, 3-4 hours. When doubled, punch down, reshape, and let rise until doubled again (roughly 2 hours).
Oil two 8" cake pans (I use 3" high pans). Divide the dough into two equal-sized pieces, shape gently into balls, and place in the cake pans. Cover again, and let rise until the cake pans are filled. I do this overnight in a cool spot.
When the dough has risen to fill the pans, preheat your oven to 400°F. Brush the tops of the dough with a little melted butter, and place them in the oven, scattering some ice cubes on the bottom of the oven to add some steam. Bake at 400°F for 10 minutes, then tent each loaf lightly with foil, reduce the heat to 350°F, and continue baking 35-40 minutes until the loaves sound slightly hollow when rapped.
Cool 10 minutes in the pan, then remove from the pans and cool to room temperature on wire racks.
Just over a year ago, I challenged myself to make a charity quilt each month for the next year and do it from my stash. I did it! Ten of the twelve quilts were approximately 36" x 48"; a size which made it easier, but, nevertheless, I completed 12 charity quilts!
In addition to making the quilts, I created a free pattern for each of them. You can find them all under "Tutorials" then "Charity Challenge" on my website.
