KABUL, Afghanistan (Jan. 19, 2011) -- An Afghan mason and laborer work on the condensation trap of the new bio-gas plant at the Afghan Renewable Energy Department’s main office in Kabul, Afghanistan, Monday.
The condensation trap allows condensation to vent from the lines, preventing it from building up inside the plant and getting into the gas lines.
The bio-gas plant project employed two plumbers for 10 days, masons for seven to eight days, and two unskilled laborers for 18 days, said Arifulla Azimi, executive director, Agency for Rehabilitation & Energy Conservation in Afghanistan. ARECA is a local Afghan company contracted to build the new plant. (Photo by U.S. Air National Guard Staff Sgt. Jordan Jones/Released)

The Ananta Samakhom Throne Hall is a former reception hall within Dusit Palace in Bangkok, Thailand. It now serves as a museum and is from time to time employed for certain state occasions. Otherwise it is open to the public every day except on Chulalongkorn Day ( 23 October ), the King's birthday ( 5th December ) and the Queen's birthday ( 12th August ).
One year after the completion of the Amphorn Satharn Villa within the Dusit Palace in 1906, King Chulalongkorn ( Rama V ) commissioned the construction of a reception hall to replace the one built during the reign of King Mongkut (Rama IV.). The building in Italian Renaissance and Neo Classic style was commissioned to the architects Mario Tamagno and Annibale Rigotti. Marble from Carrara, Italy, and other foreign materials were used. Italian sculptor Vittorio Novi, who would later also work on the Mahaiudthit Bridge, was employed with his nephew Rudolfo Nolli. The Throne Hall is a two storey construction with a large dome ( 49.5 m high ) in the centre, surrounded by six smaller domes. The domes and walls are covered with paintings by Professor Galileo Chini and Carlo Riguli depicting the history of the Chakri Dynasty, from the first to the sixth reign. King Chulalongkorn died in 1910 and the building was finally completed in 1915.
The first National People's Assembly convened on June 28, 1932 in this throne hall. After that, it was used as the Parliament House until 1974 when the new Parliament House was opened to the north. However, the old Parliament House is still used for the State Opening of Parliament marking the first assembly in consequence of a general election for the House of Representatives.
The centre piece of Bangkok's own Champs D' Elysee, this impressive two storey white marble palace sits at the end of Dusit's long, wide Royal Plaza, a leafy ceremonial boulevard that is often the focus of regal pomp and ceremony during royal celebrations. Ordered by King Rama V in 1907 and finished in the reign of King Rama VI, its neo-classical Renaissance architecture - particularly its central dome - dominate the scene just as Italian architects Mario Tamango and Annibale Rigotti intended. Following the 1932 coup it housed the first Thai parliament, but today its ornate interiors serve as a prestigious locale in which to court visiting dignitaries, hold state council meetings and royal occasions.
Inside is a beautiful central dome, under which the Royal Throne sits. Lining it and each of the six, other domes' walls are frescoes depicting Chakri Dynasty monarchs. The long hall on the upper floor is embellished with embossed roman and floral patterns showing Renaissance and Baroque arts. Outside, visitors can find impressive views both from the large paved plaza in front of it (site of the annual Trooping of the Colour in December, the Red Cross Fair in late March, as well as the King Rama V statue) or the trim gardens adjoining it with Vimanmek Mansion. On Children's Day, in the second week of January each year, the grounds and interiors are more fully open to the public.
The Ananta Samakhom Throne Hall is open to the public as a museum, with permanent exhibitions on the country’s national artists and showcases of arts and crafts by the students at the Chitralada Vocational Centre. Guided tours are available, at 30 - minute intervals, from 9:30 to 15:30 daily ( except Monday ).

The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York City opened in 1959 and as become one of the most loved landmarks in the city.
Architect Frank Lloyd Wright took 15 years, 700 sketches, and six sets of working drawings to create the museum overlooking Central Park.
Wright's last major work, the Guggenheim instantly polarized architecture critics upon completion, though today it is widely revered.
The building underwent an extensive restoration from 2005-2008 which removed the 11 layers of paint that had accumulated over the years to reveal the concrete beneath in order to analyze and preserve the existing structure.
Year 7 Completion Ceremony | 2013-14
22 members of the seventh year cohort of the Aboriginal Youth Internship Program (AYIP) celebrated the completion of their 12-month program at a ceremony in Victoria, B.C.

Speakers included Chief Ron Sam, Songhees Nation, Chief Andy Thomas, Esquimalt Nation, Kate Elliot, Métis Nation B.C., Howard Grant, First Nations Summit, Hjalmer Wenstob, BC Assembly of First Nations, Priscilla Sabbas Watts, and intern Joshua Gottfriedson.
The Malibu pier was originally built in 1905 to help support the operations of Frederick Hastings Rindge's Malibu Rancho. Mr. Rindge died before the pier could be completed and his widow, May Rindge, took over with the overseeing of the construction and completion of the pier. Agricultural products from the ranch were shipped from the pier and shipments of building materials and necessities to support the ranch came in through the pier. The Rindge's private railroad had a terminus near the pier and the famed Malibu Potteries factory was just east of the pier.
The Adamson family had a wall built along the highway from the house to the pier in 1932. Parts of the wall still remain today. The pier's front entrance tower and storage area is decorated with Malibu Potteries tile. Both the tower and the pier sign are original and have remained the same throughout the years.
In 1934 the pier was opened to the public for charter fishing and sports fishing boats operated from the pier until the early 1960's. After the Rindge's Marblehead Land Co went bankrupt in 1936, the pier was taken over by the bondholders who had helped finance Malibu development and at this time the pier was extended to its current 781-foot length with a bait-and-tackle shop added to the end of the pier.
During WWII, the end of the pier served as a U.S. Coast Guard daylight lookout station. Strong storms in the winter of 1943-1944 destroyed the bait-and-tackle shop along with the end of the pier. The remains of the pier were sold to William Huber's Malibu Pier Company for $50,000 with the proviso that he would construct a new building for the Coast Guard to occupy. This building was near the end of the pier and became the Malibu Sports Club Restaurant in 1966 and then the Malibu Pier Club after a change in owners. In 1972 the building became Alice's Restaurant (inspired by the Arlo Guthrie song) and served its famous B-52 cocktails.
At the end of the war, Huber expanded the pier and built the twin buildings at the end for a bait-and-tackle shop and a restaurant. In an effort to add protection to the pier, an artificial reef was constructed about a mile southeast of the pier in the ocean out of concrete pilings, old streetcars, and other heavy material.
In 1980 Huber put the pier up for sale, but Huber did not sell at that time. Later that same year, the State of California bought the pier and continued to operate it under the State Department of Parks and Recreation.
The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors voted to recommend the pier for registration as a Point of Historical Interest. In 1993 the pier was severely damaged by the El Nino storms and then in 1995 the pier suffered even more damage after more severe storms and was declared unsafe and closed to the public. California transferred the pier to the City of Malibu in 1997 with the proviso that Malibu fix and maintain it. The City did not have the funds to restore the pier and it reverted back to the State. It remained closed for the next thirteen years until July of 2008 when it was reopened by the State after restoration and repairs were completed at a cost of $10 million dollars!
As installation of the nativity window nears completion coloured light plays upon the adjoining altar wall for the first time.
The impressive 1950s Roman Catholic church of Christ the King in Kingstanding, one of Birmingham's northern suburbs is a church I have got to know well as a result of my latest stained glass project, to design and make two large three-light windows flanking the sanctuary, the first of which was installed in the last 2 days (march 7th / 8th 2011).
The church is a large brick building which originally had a rather spartan, barn-like interior as a result of it's brick finish, but thanks to the initiative of Fr Michael White the interior has been recently transformed and much improved by a more sympathetic plaster finish, which has lightened the interior since 2007. Another more recent developement is the church's new community centre constructed in 2009 which is now joined to the main facade on Warren Farm Road.
The church contains some fine examples of stained glass from the 1950s and 60s, principally the liturgical west window in the facade which features a bold Christ in majesty flanked by angels on a vibrant background. Glass of a similar date and style is situated in three of the side chapels and spaces that flank the main nave with busts of the Virgin & Child, St Theresa of Lisieux and St John. A smaller 1980s panel of St John the Baptist,by Tony Naylor for Norgrove Studios, was recently moved from the 'west' end to the new community hall extension.
The 'east' wall by contrast has no windows, just a flat wall with a wooden Crucifix at it's centre. My new window of the Nativity has just been installed immediately to the right, to be complimented by a Creation themed window on the corresponding position to the left.

Life in Vienna underground
Life in Vienna underground began with the establishment of the Vienna sewer late 19th century, which became a refuge for unemployed and homeless. This was possible because the sewage system always has been largely walkable, even if this is not permissible for unauthorized persons. Against the rising number of shelter seekers eventually the police was involved.
Setting conditions
The completion of the Vienna sewer system fell in a time when Vienna was a rapidly expanding city. The rising job offer attracted a variety of people, of which, however, actually not all could not find work. Social Services as unemployment benefits or health insurance did not yet exist, nor were there homeless shelters or residences, and so the number of beggars and other people who had to live on the streets rose rapidly.
In the Vienna Sewer some people therefore quickly realised a new source of income and property. In heavy rain or thunderstorms, however, drains for inexperienced can become a deadly trap. The development of toxic or explosive gas mixtures (incoming gasoline etc.) can not be excluded too. The "terrible" or even "bestial stench" that is sometimes reported, however, does not prevail there. Even where faecal matter transporting water flows it smells more like in a wet basement, but it does not stink. Nevertheless, the unsecured stay in the sewers is perilous.
The marked by special detail and by lengthy search made on site, image-assisted social reports of Viennese journalists Max Winter and Emil Kläger this problem a large part of the population of Vienna made known and attracted great interest. 1905, Max Winter published his Social Reports from the Vienna underground under the title "In the underground Vienna" in book form. 1920 appeared, based on the social reportages of Emil Kläger, the documentary "Night Piece from the life of vagrants, derailed and fallen man" in Viennese cinemas. Both the newspaper reports and the book and the film are among the first social reports at all.
Sewer as livelihoods
Residents of the Vienna sewer in 1900, under a spiral staircase.
The access ways to the sewer were and are, among other things, housed in so-called "towers" that look like oversized advertising columns. Over spiral staircases one can by these descend into the Viennese "Underworld". Approximately 50 jobless and homeless people, but probably even more, spent a large part of each day with the fishing out of objects from the waste water, the so-called "Strotten". This "Strotters", as they were called soon earned their livelihood partly
by finding coins and jewelry, which though rarely occurred, but especially much earned,
by fishing out of bones and fat for sale at soap factories or
by getting out of all sorts of other useful articles.
Some of these Strotters - but also hundreds of "ordinary" homeless people - even lived in the sewers were they in some passages, chambers and air shafts found opportunities for "lving".
Shelters
The probably most well-known accommodation for the homeless and Strotters was the Zwingburg installed in a dry chamber under the Vienna Schwarzenberg sqaure. The name not least is based on the fact that it could only be reached by a drawn board, which had to be placed over a channel and at any time could be retracted. So even the police in the short run could be prevented from entering. In addition, the "fortress" Zwingburg had several escape routes in the form of side channels and shafts.
Police pursuit
Although the stay of unauthorized persons in the sewers, of course, was not allowed, the police but apprehended Strotters and homeless people could not too long detain. The number of homeless people and Strotters only diminished when in 1934 the "channel Brigade" was established, which should proceed harder not only against criminal gangs but also against vagabonds. In the meantime, also hostels for the homeless and dormitories had arisen that at least for a part of the "canal residents" could offer a reasonable alternative", such as the Meldemann street men's hostel, which became known due to the fact that Adolf Hitler three years spent here.
Today's meaning
Apart from World War II and the postwar period, as Allied secret agents drains of the divided city knew how to exploit them for themselves, upon which the film "The Third Man" is based plays the drains today due to many social institutions whose establishment with social democratic governments in the "Red Vienna " have their beginning as a refuge no significant role anymore. The latest newspaper reports about Strotters stem from the late 1950s, the term and the with it associated activities, however, at that time still a large part of the population of Vienna were known.
Leben im Wiener Untergrund
Das Leben im Wiener Untergrund begann mit der Errichtung der Wiener Kanalisation Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts, die zur Zuflucht für Arbeits- und Obdachlose wurde. Möglich war dies, weil die Kanalisation seit jeher weitgehend begehbar ist, auch wenn dies aus Sicherheitsgründen für Unbefugte verboten ist. Gegen die steigende Zahl der Unterschlupfsuchenden wurde schließlich polizeilich vorgegangen.
Rahmenverhältnisse
Die Fertigstellung der Wiener Kanalisation fiel in eine Zeit, als Wien eine stark expandierende Stadt war. Das steigende Arbeitsplatzangebot zog eine Vielzahl von Menschen an, von denen jedoch nicht alle tatsächlich auch Arbeit finden konnten. Soziale Fürsorge wie Arbeitslosengeld oder Krankenversicherung gab es damals noch nicht, ebenso wenig gab es Obdachlosenunterkünfte oder Wohnheime, und so stieg die Zahl von Bettlern und anderen Menschen, die auf der Straße leben mussten, rasant an.
In der Wiener Kanalisation erkannten einige Menschen daher schnell eine neue Einkommensquelle und Unterkunft. Bei starkem Regen oder Gewittern kann die Kanalisation allerdings für Unerfahrene zur tödlichen Falle werden. Auch die Entwicklung giftiger oder explosiver Gasgemische (einlaufendes Benzin etc.) ist nicht auszuschließen. Der „enorme“ oder gar „bestialische Gestank“ von dem manchmal berichtet wird, herrscht dort jedoch nicht. Selbst wo Fäkalien transportierendes Wasser fließt, riecht es eher wie in einem feuchten Keller, aber es stinkt nicht. Trotzdem ist der ungesicherte Aufenthalt in der Kanalisation lebensgefährlich.
Die durch besondere Ausführlichkeit gekennzeichneten und durch langwierige Recherchen vor Ort entstandenen, bildunterstützten Sozialreportagen der Wiener Journalisten Max Winter und Emil Kläger machten diese Problematik einem großen Teil der Wiener Bevölkerung bekannt und stießen auf großes Interesse. 1905 brachte Max Winter seine Sozialreportagen aus dem Wiener Untergrund unter dem Titel „Im unterirdischen Wien“ in Buchform heraus. 1920 erschien, basierend auf den Sozialreportagen Emil Klägers, der Dokumentarfilm „Nachtstück aus dem Leben der Vaganten, der Entgleisten und Gestürzten“ in den Wiener Kinos. Sowohl die Zeitungsreportagen als auch das Buch und der Film zählen zu den ersten Sozialreportagen überhaupt.
Kanalisation als Lebensgrundlage
Bewohner der Wiener Kanalisation um 1900, unter einer Wendeltreppe.
Die Zugänge zur Kanalisation waren und sind unter anderem in so genannten „Türmen“ untergebracht, die wie übergroße Litfaßsäulen aussehen. Über Wendeltreppen kann man durch diese in die Wiener „Unterwelt“ absteigen. Um die 50 Stellen- und Obdachlose, vermutlich aber noch mehr, verbrachten einen großen Teil jedes Tages mit dem Herausfischen von Gegenständen aus den Abwässern, dem so genannten „Strotten“. Diese „Strotter“, wie man sie bald nannte, verdienten ihren Lebensunterhalt teilweise
durch das Finden von Münzen und Schmuck, was zwar eher selten vorkam, aber besonders viel einbrachte,
durch das Herausfischen von Knochen und Fett zum Verkauf an Seifenfabriken oder
durch das Herausholen von allerlei anderen brauchbaren Gegenständen.
Einige dieser Strotter – aber auch mehrere hundert „gewöhnliche“ Obdachlose – lebten sogar in der Kanalisation, wo sie in manchen Gängen, Kammern und Luftschächten Möglichkeiten zum „Wohnen“ vorfanden.
Unterschlüpfe
Die wohl bekannteste Unterkunft für Obdachlose und Strotter war die in einer trockenen Kammer eingerichtete „Zwingburg“ unter dem Wiener Schwarzenbergplatz. Der Name rührte nicht zuletzt daher, dass sie nur durch ein Brett, welches über einen Kanal gelegt werden musste und jederzeit eingezogen werden konnte, zu erreichen war. So konnte selbst die Polizei kurzfristig vom Eindringen abgehalten werden. Zudem verfügte die „Zwingburg“ über mehrere Fluchtwege in Form von Seitenkanälen und -schächten.
Polizeiliche Verfolgung
Zwar war der Aufenthalt von Unbefugten in der Kanalisation natürlich nicht gestattet, die Polizei konnte aufgegriffene Strotter und Obdachlose aber nicht allzu lange festhalten. Die Zahl der Strotter und Obdachlosen nahm erst ab, als 1934 die „Kanalbrigade“ gegründet wurde, die nicht nur gegen kriminelle Banden, sondern auch gegen Vagabunden härter vorgehen sollte. In der Zwischenzeit waren auch Obdachlosen- und Wohnheime entstanden, die zumindest für einen Teil der „Kanalbewohner“ eine vernünftige Alternative bieten konnten, so zum Beispiel das Männerwohnheim Meldemannstraße, das dadurch bekannt wurde, dass Adolf Hitler hier drei Jahre verbrachte.
Heutige Bedeutung
Abgesehen vom Zweiten Weltkrieg und der Nachkriegszeit, als alliierte Geheimagenten die Kanalisation der geteilten Stadt für sich zu nutzen wussten, worauf auch der Film „Der dritte Mann“ aufbaut, spielt die Kanalisation heute aufgrund zahlreicher sozialer Einrichtungen, deren Errichtung im sozialdemokratisch regierten „Roten Wien“ ihren Anfang nahm, als Zufluchtsort keine nennenswerte Rolle mehr. Die letzten Zeitungsberichte über Strotter stammen aus den späten 1950er Jahren, der Begriff und die mit ihm verbundene Tätigkeit waren aber damals noch einem Großteil der Wiener Bevölkerung bekannt.
These two photos show the changes that occurred near I-5 at the Fife curve between 2023 and 2026 for the SR 167 Completion Project.
The photo on the left was taken in January 2023. The new Wapato Way East bridge over I-5 in in place along with the new roundabout on SR 99.
The photo on the right was taken in March 2026. In three years, we built a second new bridge over I-5. This bridge has the second longest precast concrete girders in the world (and manufactured locally in Tacoma) supporting it. The new bridge will carry the future SR 167 Expressway over I-5.
The SR 167 Completion Project is part of the Puget Sound Gateway Program. The Puget Sound Gateway Program combines the SR 509 Completion Project in south King County with the SR 167 Completion Project in Pierce County to complete critical missing links in Washington State’s highway and freight network. These projects provide new connections to the state’s ports, improve freight movements and reduce congestion on local roads and highways.
Alliance is cranking out the winners! Congrats to David Snyder, Sterling Woods and Vincent Gutierrez....all three completed their lease today. We'll have Vincent's picture and story soon.
We are getting ready for a hydrostatic pressure test of the butane fuel tank tomorrow. The tank was designed for 400 psi in case it is ever filled with butane/propane mixes.
Following the completion of the pointwork and track leading into the goods shed, a ceremony is held to celebrate the launch of the new C&W works in it.
March 1989.
At the completion of an oil well, the drillers fill the space around the drill casing with concrete. Then they lower this gadget (the holes visible here have shaped explosive charges in them) into the hole, then set off the charges. They do this at the depths at which they found hydrocarbons during the drilling process.
Congrats to Charles Singleton who has MASTERED the Alliance program and completed his first lease and has signed up for his 2nd tour of duty as an Independent Contractor making what he calls "Lovely paychecks!" He picks up his big Lease Completion BONUS and a huge Re-sign bonus! You can hear Charles tell his very inspiring story on Stevens Radio.
