This two storey complex of flats in the Melbourne suburb of North Caulfield have been designed in Inter-War Mediterranean style.
Based on Georgian principles of domestic architecture, the Mediterranean style was introduced to Australia by Leslie Wilkinson, Professor of Architecture at the University of Sydney in 1918. He perceived a similarity betyween the temperate coastal regions of Australia and the Mediterranean areas of Europe. There are similarities to that of Spanish Mission architecture, but the stand out difference is that there is an elegant stripped back simplicity to Inter-War Mediterranean buildings and a classicism which is not found in Spanish Mission buildings which were more American influenced.
This set of flats has an asymmetrical facade which is typical of the Inter-War Mediterranean architecture, as is the stuccoed wall treatment. It also features simple versions of classical motifs which can be seen in the decoration around the rounded doorway leading to the upper flat and upstairs balcony, and the Ionic order on the columns over the portico to the ground floor flat. To allow light and a breeze to blow through the stairwell of the flats, the building features carved stone grillework which is also typical of Inter-War Mediterranean architecture.
This set of flats has its own garage off a side street with a space for a car for each flat, which suggests that the occupiers of these apartments were wealthy middle-class people. The Inter-War Mediterranean architecture style was chosen generally by more affluent clientele, and designed by academically trained practitioners.
After the Great War (1914 - 1918), higher costs of living and the "servant problem" made living in the grand mansions and villas built in the Victorian and Edwardian eras a far less practical and attractive option for both those looking for new housing, and those who lived in big houses. It was around this time, in answer to these problems, that flats and apartments began to replace some larger houses, and became fashionable to live in.
Flats like these would have suited those of comfortable means who could afford to live in North Caulfield, and dispense with the difficulties of keeping a large retinue of staff. With clean lines and large windows, it mirrored the prevailing uncluttered lines of architecture that came out of England after the war.
As in London, there was a huge expansion in Melbourne after the Great War in 1918, with ribbon development estates with names like "Oakhill" and "Golf Links" popping up seemingly overnight along rail lines and tram lines. These quickly became suburbs where the newly created and newly moneyed middle classes chose to settle, away from the crowded inner city with its dark Victorian houses and slums. These suburbs gained the mocking title of "Metroland".
Representing modernity the inspiration of these "Metroland" houses were derived from the Reformist and Arts and Crafts movement in England as well as the more modern lines of the Art Deco, Streamline Moderne and Inter-War Mediterranean architectural styles that were in vogue in the 1920s and 1930s.

Mayadevi Temple also called Chhayadevi Temple is located in the Konark temple complex. This temple is dedicated to Godess Chayadevi, believed to have been on The temple facing east, consists of a sanctum (deul) and a porch (Jagamohana) standing over a raised platform, façade of which is relieved with ornamentation. The superstructures of the sanctum and porch are missing. The interior of the porch is notable for their sculptural treatment while the sanctum is devoid of any deity. Stylistically, the temple is assignable to circa late eleventh century AD.

Konark Sun Temple ([koɳarəkə]; also Konârak) is a 13th-century Sun Temple at Konark in Odisha, India. It is believed that the temple was built by king Narasimhadeva I of Eastern Ganga Dynasty around 1250 CE. The temple is in the shape of a gigantic chariot elaborately carved stone wheels, pillars and walls. A major part of the structure is now in ruins. The temple is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and has also featured on various list of Seven Wonders of India.
ETYMOLOGY
The name Konark derives from the combination of the Sanskrit words, Kona (corner) and Arka (sun), in reference to the temple which was dedicated to the Sun god Surya.
The monument was also called the Black Pagoda by European sailors. In contrast, the Jagannath Temple in Puri was called the White Pagoda. Both temples served as important landmarks for the sailors.
ACHITECTURE
The temple was originally built at the mouth of the river Chandrabhaga, but the waterline has receded since then. The temple has been built in the form of a giant ornamented chariot of the Sun god, Surya. It has twelve pairs of elaborately carved stone wheels which are 3 meters wide and is pulled by a set of seven horses (4 on the right and 3 on the left). The temple follows the traditional style of Kalinga architecture. It is carefully oriented towards the east so that the first rays of sunrise strikes the principal entrance. The temple is built from Khondalite rocks.
The original temple had a main sanctum sanctorum (vimana), which was supposedly 70 m tall. Due to the weight of the super structure and weak soil of the area the main vimana fell in 1837. The audience hall (Jagamohana), which is about 30 m tall, still stands and is the principal structure in the surviving ruins. Among the structures, which have survived to the current day, are the dance hall (Nata mandira) and dining hall (Bhoga mandapa).
The Konark temple is also known for its erotic sculptures of maithunas.
Two smaller ruined temples have been discovered nearby. One of them is called the Mayadevi Temple and is located southwest from the entrance of the main temple. It is presumed to have been dedicated to Mayadevi, one of the Sun god's wives. It has been dated to the late 11th century, earlier than the main temple. The other one belongs to some unknown Vaishnava deity. Sculptures of Balarama, Varaha and Trivikrama have been found at the site, indicating it to be a Vaishnavite temple. Both temples have their primary idols missing.
A collection of fallen sculptures can be viewed at the Konark Archaeological Museum which is maintained by the Archaeological Survey of India.
HISTORY
ANCIENT TEXTS
According to Bhavishya Purana and Samba Purana, there may have been a sun temple in the region earlier than current one, dating to the 9th century or earlier. The books mention three sun temples at Mundira (possibly Konark), Kalapriya (Mathura), and Multan.
According to the scriptures, Samba, the son of Krishna, was cursed with leprosy. He was advised by the sage, Kataka, to worship the sun god to cure his aliment. Samba underwent penance for 12 years in Mitravana near the shores of Chandrabhaga. Both the original Konark temple and the Multan temple have been attributed to Samba.
The Periplus of the Erythraean Sea (1st Century CE) mentions a port called Kainapara, which has been identified as current day Konark.
SUN DIAL AND TIME
The wheels of the temple are sundials which can be used to calculate time accurately to a minute including day and night.
SECOND TEMPLE
According to the Madala Panji, there was another temple in the region. It was built by one Pundara Kesari. He may have been Puranjaya, the 7th century ruler, of the Somavasmi Dynasty.
NARASIMHADEVA I
The current temple is attributed to Narasimhadeva I of the Eastern Ganga Dynasty. His reign spanned from 1238 to 1264 CE. The temple may have been a monument to his victory against Tughral Tughan Khan.
DHARMAPADA´S TALE
According to local folklore, Narasimhadeva I had hired a chief architect called Bisu Maharana to build the temple. After a period of twelve years, a workforce of twelve thousand almost finished the construction. But, they failed to mount the crown stone. The impatient king ordered the temple to be finished in three days or the artisans be put to death. At the time, Bisu Maharana's twelve-year-old son, Dharmapada arrived at the site. Bisu Maharana had never seen his son, as he had left his village when his wife was still pregnant. Dharmapada successfully proposed a solution to mount the crown stone. But, the artisans were still apprehensive that the king will be displeased to learn that a boy succeeded where his best artisans failed. Dharmapada climbed onto the temple and leapt into the water to save his father and his co-workers.
COLLAPSE
There have been several proposed theories for the collapse of the main sanctum. The date of the collapse is also not certain.
The Kenduli copper plates of Narasimha IV (Saka 1305 or 1384 CE) states the temple to be in a perfect state.
In the 16th century Ain-i-Akbari, Abul Fazl also mentions Konark being in a proper state. The account also mentions the cost of construction being 12 years of revenue.
The cause of collapse is also placed on Kalapahad who invaded Odisha in 1568.
In 1627, the then Raja of Khurda had removed the sun idol from Konark and moved it to the Jagannath temple in Puri.
James Fergusson (1808–1886) had the opinion that marshy foundation had caused the collapse. But, the structure has shown no sign of sinking into its foundation. Fergusson, who visited the temple in 1837, recorded a corner of the main sanctum still standing. It also fell down in 1848 due to a strong gale.
According to Percy Brown (1872–1955), the temple was not properly completed and so it collapsed. This contradicts earlier recorded accounts of the temple being in a proper state.
In 1929, an analysis of a moss covered rock estimated the date of abandonment at around 1573.
Other proposed causes include lightning and earthquake.
ARUNA STAMBHA
In the last quarter of the 18th century, when worship had ceased in the temple, the Aruna stambha (Aruna pillar) was removed from the entrance of Konark temple and placed at the Singha-dwara (Lion's Gate) of the Jagannath temple in Puri by a Maratha Brahmachari called Goswain (or Goswami). The pillar is made of monolithic chlorite and is 10.26 m tall . It is dedicated to Aruna, the charioteer of the Sun god.
PRESERVATION EFFORTS
In 1803, requests were made for conservations by the East India Marine Board, but only removal of stones from the site was prohibited by the Governor General. As a result, a part of the main tower, which was still standing, collapsed in 1848.
The then Raja of Khurda removed some stones and sculptures to use in a temple he was building in Puri. A few gateways and some sculptures were destroyed in the process. In 1838, after the depredation of the Raja of Khurda, Asiatic Society of Bengal requested conservation, but the requests were denied and only preventative of human-caused damages were guaranteed. The Raja was forbidden to remove any more stones.
In 1859, Asiatic Society of Bengal proposed moving an architrave depicting the navagraha to the Indian Museum in Calcutta. The first attempt in 1867 was abandoned as the funds ran out.
In 1894, thirteen sculptures were moved to the Indian Museum.
In 1903 when a major excavation was attempted nearby, the then Lieutenant governor of Bengal, J. A. Baurdilon, ordered the temple to be sealed and filled with sand to prevent the collapse of the Jagamohana.
In 1906, casuarina and punnang trees were planted facing the sea to buffer the site against sand-laden winds.
In 1909, the Mayadevi temple was discovered while removing sand and debris.
The temple was granted World Heritage Site status by the UNESCO in 1984.

HK Cultural Centre, completed in 1989. Kowloon, Hong Kong.
"The new Hong Kong Cultural Center stands on one of Hong Kong's finest waterfront sites, looking out over Victoria Harbor with its quaint wooden fishing junks and busy passenger ferries parading past the colony's glistening glass and metal skyscrapers. But the $77 million center, designed by a committee of government architects, has no windows. The only opening onto one of the most magnificent waterfront views in the world is a narrow slit of glass that runs up a wall of the low, angular pink-tiled building.
While many people involved in the arts here believe that the sophisticated new center marks the colony's cultural coming of age, much of its significance has been obscured by the debate over its design. ''It is a contentious design; there is no question about that,'' said Wayne Maddern, the center's executive director. ''I would say that 90 percent of the local population don't like it.''
Prince Charles of Britain and his wife, the Princess of Wales, attended opening-day ceremonies in November. There was speculation that the Prince, an outspoken critic of modern architecture, would use the occasion to criticize the design, but he politely declined. ''I would hardly be so tactless as to impart to you my views on the architectural design of this remarkable building,'' the Prince said.
The outside of the building has been described as ''a giant ski jump,'' while the vast, windowless foyer has been compared to ''a high school gym'' and ''a shopping mall without shops.''
''The architects wanted to design a building on Victoria Harbor which made a statement, and you can't question that they succeeded in doing that,'' Mr. Maddern said wryly. Hong Kong residents, performers, critics and newspapers are criticizing everything from the center's lack of windows to the tight fit of the seats in its concert hall. The Hong Kong Philharmonic has already complained about its rehearsal hall, and local dance groups say the theater's dance floor doesn't have enough spring."

The southernmost point of Africa, looking east at the Indian Ocean and the Agulhas Lighthouse.
Located at the very bottom of Africa, Cape Agulhas has been a significant landmark for centuries, attracting visitors from around the world.
The early history of Cape Agulhas is woven from the threads of various cultures and civilizations. Theories suggest that prehistoric men inhabited the area, feeding on shellfish and other marine resources, possibly further back than 2000 BC.
The earliest known inhabitants of the region were the Khoikhoi and San people, who lived in the area from around 1000 BC to the 17th century. These indigenous peoples were skilled hunters and gatherers.
The first recorded European visitors to the area were the Portuguese, who arrived in the 15th century. The Portuguese sailor, Bartolomeu Dias, was the first European to round the cape in 1488.
The cape was later named "Cabo das Agulhas" (Cape of Needles) by the Portuguese, due to the rocky outcrops and strong currents that made navigation hazardous.
Chinese sailors may also have visited the area, with some theories suggesting that they arrived in the 13th century. However, these claims are still a topic of debate among historians.
The arrival of European sailors and settlers had a profound impact on the indigenous population, leading to displacement, marginalsation, and ultimately, the loss of their land and way of life.
Cape Agulhas itself is the official meeting point of the Indian and Atlantic Oceans, marked by a iconic bronze marker. This unique geographical feature creates a diverse and thriving marine ecosystem, with an incredible array of marine life.
The geology of Cape Agulhas is a fascinating story that reveals the region's complex and ancient history. The rocks found at Cape Agulhas are part of the Table Mountain Group, a geological formation that also includes the iconic Table Mountain in Cape Town, 166 kilometers away. These rocks are estimated to be around 450-500 million years old, dating back to the Ordovician period.
The Table Mountain Group is characterised by a unique sequence of sandstones, shales, and quartzites that were formed through a combination of tectonic activity, erosion, and deposition. These rocks have been shaped by millions of years of weathering, erosion, and plate tectonics, resulting in the distinctive landscape we see today.
The Agulhas Bank, a shallow plate stretching away from the shore into the ocean, is a remarkable feature of the region. This bank is approximately 116 000 square kilometers in size and is characterised by a gentle slope that gradually deepens as you move further offshore.
Further south, the Agulhas Bank plunges into the deep ocean, forming the Agulhas Trench. This trench is a remarkable feature that stretches for more than 2000 kilometers, all the way to Antarctica. The Agulhas Trench is a key component of the global ocean circulation system, playing a critical role in the exchange of heat, nutrients, and marine life between the Atlantic, Indian, and Southern Oceans.
Cape Agulhas is a must-visit destination for anyone traveling to South Africa. Visitors can explore the Cape Agulhas National Park or the cape's picturesque villages, such as L'Agulhas and Struisbaai, which offer a range of accommodation options, from cozy bed and breakfasts to luxury hotels.
However, Cape Agulhas is not immune to the impacts of climate change. Rising sea temperatures, ocean acidification, and changes in ocean currents are all affecting the region's marine ecosystem. The fishing industry, which has long been a mainstay of the local economy, has been severely impacted by overfishing and climate change.

NEOBALLS / ZEN MAGNETS - Neodymium Magnetic Balls (@4205) - Starcraft II's Massive Thor
This is my most complex and largest build to date.
It was designed in parts: Cockpit body, then legs, then arms, then rear guns. Then I had to redesign parts when it came time to assemble it together because of incorrect bonding assumptions and misalignment of magnet fields.
Experimented with x-beam coupled bonds to get the maximum lateral strength with reinforcements on the sides. This proved to be very string. Created a X-Beam using similar methods producing a very strong leg structure. It was capable of support the entire weight of the cockpit body w/o a problem. Had to redesign the leg to cockpit body mount point from the earlier concept because the bond was not completely coupled.
Next up were the arm/guns ... the weight was too much for the cockpit body to support so I fashioned a pair of lego-platforms for them to rest on and take the weight off of the central body.
Finally ... the rear guns ... these were a challenge in that their original mount point design had to be reworked also to make them fit correctly into the rear of the cockpit body. I changed the mount points on the guns to fit the space on both sides and added a few support balls to improve the mount point bonds. I was very surprised how they were balanced and supported only by two point sections to the body. The guns stayed in place for a small series of photos.
The design flaw was in the side bonds of the beam to the legs. The coupled field held nicely for a short amount of time and would have held if it didn't have the weight of the rear guns to support. When they were standing upright and straight, all was good. As soon as I attempted to move the platform forward (to take a video), the rear guns tilted slightly backwards and and that was the end of the leg to body support bonds ... and created the dreaded implosion.
The rear gun weight caused the entire central body section to rotate backwards and fall back on the rear guns ... taking the arms in the process. Perhaps I should have created a Lego-support structure for the rear guns to remove the pendulum force backwards ... but that would have created another view blocker like the side Lego-platforms obstructed the view of the legs and feet. Not sure if I can recreate it for a rotational video ... this took over a week (on/off to design and assemble).
Overall ... I was very happy with the result ... hope I captured enough detail to warrant some visual recognition as a Starcraft II Thor reproduction/interpretation.

Located 960-feet underground, the U1a laboratory serves as the site for sub-critical experiments. It includes horizontal tunnels, each about one half mile in length, and vertical shafts. The first shaft was U1a. The U1g shaft, which is located about 1,000 feet away, allows for cross ventilation, instrumentation and utility access, and emergency exit. Between 1999 and 2001, the facility was upgraded with the construction of the U1h shaft, to be the primary means of access and egress. It is equipped with a mechanical hoist for the movement of personnel and equipment. The hoist system was installed in 2004.

Blanding Complex also houses the Commons, where meal swipes are readily available for buffet-style dining, and above the good eats, you can get help with those tricky classes with a tutor in the Study.
Kirwan Complex: Blanding Complex is mirrored by almost identical residence halls that complete South Campus housing. Kirwan I, II, III, IV and Kirwan Tower contain the same standard style rooms as Blanding Complex. Together, the Kirwan buildings house 1,276 co-ed students. Kirwan and the rest of the South Campus neighborhood make for easy walks to the William T. Young Library and the Johnson Center!

COMPLEXO ARQUITETÔNICO DE SANTO ALEXANDRE - 1a. parte - (Igreja de São Francisco Xavier) -
Em Belém do Pará, o Complexo de Santo Alexandre é formado pela igreja de São Francisco Xavier (à direita da foto) e o Museu de Arte Sacra, instalado no antigo Palácio Arquiepiscopal. É um dos conjuntos arquitetônicos jesuíticos mais expressivos do Brasil Colonial, datado dos séculos XVII e XVIII.
Para elaborar esse trabalho, obtive a licença e o apoio necessário da Senhora Renata Maués, Diretora do MAS-Museu de Arte Sacra e do Sistema Integrado de Cultura do Pará.
A visita se estendeu aos interiores do MAS, do Forte do Castelo e do MHEP(Museu Histórico do Estado do Pará). Agradecimento extensivo ao Senhor Armando Queiroz, do MAS, que nos guiou com toda a atenção e muito entusiasmo.
