In 1922 Trwyn Du became the first Trinity House lighthouse to be automated,[7] when it was converted to unwatched acetylene operation.[8]
The lamp was converted to solar power in 1996 and the lighthouse was modernised extensively at that time.
At present the Lighthouse has a 15,000 candela light that flashes once every 5 seconds and can be seen 12 nmi (22 km) away. Additionally, a 178-kilogram (3½ cwt) fog bell sounds once every thirty seconds.[9] There was also a lifeboat station built in 1832, nearby, but this closed in 1915.
The tower has been unmanned since 1922 and is checked from Holyhead Control Centre. In August 2019 Trinity House started trials of a new fog horn, stating, "The bell is activated by an ageing electronic striker mechanism which no longer provides the assurance of reliability which is needed.
Brooklyn Memorial (World War 1) at Prospect Park.The soldier is wearing puttees around his legs.The image was sculpted by Augustus Lukeman and was dedicated in 1921.It's a quite moving image,I think.By the angel's hand gesture it looks like he's telling the soldier what heaven is like as he carries him there (my opinion).Shot at Prospect Park.
Hebrews 6:7-11
King James Version
7 For the earth which drinketh in the rain that cometh oft upon it, and bringeth forth herbs meet for them by whom it is dressed, receiveth blessing from God:
8 But that which beareth thorns and briers is rejected, and is nigh unto cursing; whose end is to be burned.
9 But, beloved, we are persuaded better things of you, and things that accompany salvation, though we thus speak.
10 For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister.
11 And we desire that every one of you do shew the same diligence to the full assurance of hope unto the end:
Those who contemplate the beauty of the earth find reserves of strength that will endure as long as life lasts. There is something infinitely healing in the repeated refrains of nature -- the assurance that dawn comes after night, and spring after winter.
-Rachel Carson
The family is both the fundamental unit of society as well as the root of culture. It ... is a perpetual source of encouragement, advocacy, assurance, and emotional refueling that empowers a child to venture with confidence into the greater world and to become all that he can be.

Le Centre de glaces Intact Assurance est un complexe sportif comprenant le Centre sportif de Sainte-Foy et l’ancien Anneau Gaétan-Boucher réunis en un seul équipement d’envergure. On y compte notamment cinq glaces.
Au cœur de l'anneau de 400 mètres se trouvent deux patinoires de dimensions olympiques, soit une pour le patinage de vitesse courte piste et l'autre pour la pratique du patinage artistique, du hockey et d’autres sports de glace. Une piste de course et de marche comprenant trois corridors, entièrement fenestrée et longue de 465 mètres ceinture le tout. S’ajoutent à ces nouvelles installations les deux patinoires de dimensions nord-américaines situées dans l’ancien Centre sportif de Sainte-Foy, soit les patinoires Robert-Chevalier (la « bleue ») et Roland-Couillard (la « rouge »).
Ainsi, le Centre de glaces Intact Assurance formera le seul bâtiment du genre dans tout l’Est de l’Amérique du Nord; les autres anneaux de glace intérieurs comparables se trouvant à Calgary, Fort St John, Milwaukee et Salt Lake City.

Opened in 1911, the building is the purpose-built home of the Royal Liver Assurance group, which had been set up in the city in 1850 to provide locals with assistance related to losing a wage-earning relative. One of the first buildings in the world to be built using reinforced concrete, the Royal Liver Building stands at 98.2 m (322 ft) tall to the top of the spires and has 13 floors. Once one of the tallest buildings in the country, the Royal Liver Building is now only the joint-fifth tallest structure in the City of Liverpool. Today the Royal Liver Building is one of the most recognisable landmarks and is home to two fabled Liver Birds that watch over the city and the sea. Legend has it that if these two birds were to fly away, then the city would cease to exist.
The building is an early example of a building constructed using reinforced concrete, and given the building's radical design was considered by some to "be impossible to build".
Since its completion in 1911, it has overlooked the River Mersey from its waterfront location on the Pier Head and forms one of the 'Three Graces' along with the Port of Liverpool Building and the Cunard Building. This is reflected in the building's Grade I listed building status.
The building is crowned by a pair of clock towers: as a ship passed along the river, mariners could tell the time from these.
Atop each tower stand the mythical Liver Birds, designed by Carl Bernard Bartels. The two birds named Bella and Bertie, officially cormorants, are each eighteen feet high and have identical poses, standing upright with half-raised wings. Popular legend has it that while one giant bird looks out over the city to protect its people, the other bird looks out to sea at the new sailors coming in to port. Alternatively, local legend states one Liver Bird is male, looking inland to see if the pubs are open, whilst the other is female, looking out to sea to see if there are any handsome sailors coming up the river.

There once existed a habitually guarded practice, yet the thought of allowing the current to flow in so effervescently is tempting. What is there left to fear when there is such a level of assurance? Then again, the uncertainty principle remains in question as to how perception can formulate and shape delusion; trepidation caused by uncertainty. An analytical mind would insist on pushing through with the current task; while normalcy would be driven by emotional desire to find solace through unification. The moment is so delicately woven that the thought of even handling the fragility of the outcome is frightening, yet simultaneously empowering. When there is so much overwhelming delight to face the first contact every morning, having to face everything else becomes so paltry; with it, there is a drive that pushes and pulls in all directions like a supermassive vortex whirling around in it's own singularity. If it manages to grab hold and capture , there is the willingness to proceed, permitting it to engulf and overtake. That willingness to submit to its grasp is present.
It is the edgy existence within me of these unmade images that is the only assurance that the best photographs are yet to be made :-)

Once the entrance to Alfred Waterhouse's 1890s Nottingham Prudential Assurance building, now a bar. He was also architect of their offices on Holborn and several others around the country. The date given above the statue of Prudence is the year the firm was founded. Grade II listed.
This shot of the Old State House in Boston brings back memories of the great opening scene in Monty Python's the Meaning of Life'.
The film begins with a stand-alone 17-minute supporting feature entitled The Crimson Permanent Assurance (directed by Gilliam). A group of elderly office clerks in a small accounting firm rebel against their emotionlessly efficient, yuppie corporate masters. They commandeer their building, turn it into a pirate ship, and sail into a large financial district, where they raid and overthrow a large multinational corporation.
In reality, the Old State House completes an incredible 250 year history of American architecture in one shot. Built in 1713, it was the seat of the Massachusetts General Court until 1798, and is the oldest surviving public building in Boston.
Some washing hanging out to try overlooked the magnificent corner domer of Bradford's Prudential Assurance Building.
The Prudential Assurance Buildings (1895), one of twenty-six local offices built for the company by the prolific artchitect Alfred Waterhouse. A wonderful example of late Victorian architectural exuberance in red brick and terracotta.
