Cape St. Vincent (Portuguese: Cabo de São Vicente, Portuguese pronunciation: [ˈkabu dɨ sɐ̃w̃ viˈsẽtɨ]), next to the Sagres Point, on the so-called Costa Vicentina (Vincentine Coast), is a headland in the municipality of Sagres, in the Algarve, southern Portugal.
Description
This cape is the southwesternmost point in Portugal. It forms the southwestern end of the E9 European Coastal Path, which runs for 5,000 km (3,100 mi) to Narva-Jõesuu in Estonia. Approximately six kilometers from the village of Sagres, the cape is a landmark for a ship traveling to or from the Mediterranean. The cliffs rise nearly vertically from the Atlantic to a height of 75 meters. The cape is a site of exuberant marine life and a high concentration of birds nesting on the cliffs, such as the rare Bonelli's eagle, peregrine falcons, kites, rock thrushes, rock pigeons, storks and herons.
History
Cape St. Vincent was already sacred ground in Neolithic times, as standing menhirs in the neighborhood attest. The ancient Greeks called it Ophiussa (Land of Serpents), inhabited by the Oestriminis and dedicated here a temple to Heracles. The Romans called it Promontorium Sacrum (or Holy Promontory). They considered it a magical place where the sunset was much larger than anywhere else. They believed the sun sank here hissing into the ocean, marking the edge of their world.
According to legend, the name of this cape is linked to the story of a martyred fourth-century Iberian deacon St. Vincent whose body was brought ashore here. A shrine was erected over his grave; according to the Arab geographer Al-Idrisi, it was always guarded by ravens and is therefore named by him كنيسة الغراب (Kanīsah al-Ghurāb, meaning "Church of the Raven"). King Afonso Henriques (1139–1185) had the body of the saint exhumed in 1173 and brought it by ship to Lisbon, still accompanied by the ravens. This transfer of the relics is depicted on the coat of arms of Lisbon. The area around the cape was plundered several times by pirates from France and Holland and, in 1587, by Sir Francis Drake. All existing buildings—including the Vila do Infante of Henry the Navigator--fell into ruins because of the Lisbon earthquake of 1755. The Franciscan friars who cared for the shrine stayed on until 1834, when all monasteries were disbanded in Portugal.
Several naval battles were fought in the vicinity of this cape:
The French Admiral Anne Hilarion de Tourville defeated a large Anglo-Dutch naval fleet commanded by George Rooke escorting a convoy of between 400 and 500 English and Dutch merchant ships on 27 June 1693. The "Smyrna fleet" disaster, as it came to be known, saw ninety-four of the richly-laden merchant ships either captured or sunk; this event led to the dismissal of two English admirals whose convoy escort had turned back off Ushant, France.
In 1780, this cape was the site of the Battle of Cape St. Vincent (between Britain and Spain).
Admiral Jervis with Commodore Nelson defeated the Spanish fleet in 1797 at a second Battle of Cape St. Vincent on 14 February 1797.
In 1833, a Loyalist Portuguese fleet defeated the Miguelites during Portugal's Liberal Wars.
Lighthouse
The present lighthouse was built over the ruins of a 16th century Franciscan convent in 1846. The statues of St. Vincent and St. Francis Xavier had been moved to the nearby church of Nossa Senhora da Graça on Point Sagres.
This lighthouse, guarding one of the world's busiest shipping lanes, is among the most powerful in Europe (the most powerful being on the French island of Ushant, off the coast of Brittany); its two 1000 W lamps can be seen as far as 60 kilometers away.
PORTUGUÊS
O cabo de São Vicente é um cabo situado no extremo sudoeste de Portugal continental, na freguesia de Sagres, concelho de Vila do Bispo. Fica 4 km a oeste e 3 km a norte da Ponta de Sagres, o antigo "Promontorium Sacrum" romano, dedicado ao deus Saturno, e onde se situa uma antiga fortaleza visitável (Fortaleza de Sagres).
Em Lagos, a 25 km do cabo para leste, o Infante D. Henrique teria estabelecido a sua escola de navegação (Escola de Sagres) no século XV, que impulsionou os Descobrimentos portugueses. O pesquisador Luís de Albuquerque demonstrou tratar-se de um mito.
Do cabo é possível apreciar a passagem dos navios que transitam entre o Mar Mediterrâneo e o norte da Europa.
O Cabo de São Vicente faz parte do Parque Natural do Sudoeste Alentejano e Costa Vicentina.
História
Estrabão (63 ou 64 a.C. - 23 d.C.), numa descrição da Península Ibérica, começou pelo Cabo de São Vicente, chamando-o desde logo "Cabo Sagrado", dizendo:
Este cabo é o ponto mais a ocidente, não só da Europa, mas de todo o mundo habitado. (...) Além disso, o país adjacente a este cabo é chamado de "Cuneus" na língua latina, logo significando a sua forma de cunha. Mas para o cabo em si, que se projecta para o mar, Artemidoro (que visitou o local, como ele diz) assemelha-se a um navio; e ele diz que três pequenas ilhas ajudam a dar essa forma, uma dessas ilhas ocupa a posição do bico do navio, e as outras duas, que têm locais de ancoragem algo bons, ocupam a posição de cabeças-de-gato. Quanto a Héracles, diz ele, não existe nem um templo seu para ser visto no cabo (como Ephorus diz erradamente), nem um altar em sua honra, ou para nenhum outro deus, mas somente pedras em muitos locais, deitadas em grupos de três ou quatro, que de acordo com um costume nativo são giradas por aqueles que visitam o local, e então, depois de derramar uma libação, são movidas de volta. Não é regra, diz ele, ocupá-lo durante esse tempo; mas aqueles que vêm ver o lugar passam a noite na aldeia vizinha, e então entram no lugar de dia, levando água com eles, dado que não há água lá.
Depois desta descrição no seu livro Geographia, continua a citar relatos de o Sol poder ser cem vezes maior no Cabo de São Vicente ao pôr-do-sol, ou que a noite possa vir abruptamente. Mas, como ele diz, se ninguém põe o pé no local à noite, como podem saber se este fenómeno é, ou não, verdadeiro. Uma explicação que deu, segundo fontes, era de que poderia ser um efeito visual.

The Sankei Gardens were designed and built by Tomitaro Hara (原富太郎) (1868–1939), known by the pseudonym Sankei Hara, who was a silk trader and entrepreneur. The Tōmyō-ji three-story pagoda in the background was originally constructed in Kyoto in 1457 was relocated here in 1914.
World War II caused great damage to the buildings. In 1953 the garden was donated by the Hara family to the City of Yokohama, which created the Sankeien Hoshōkai Foundation for its repair and maintenance. The Foundation started the restoration in 1953 and, five years later, the garden was back almost to its original form and reopened to the public.
Calvin is in the final stages of manufacture of component parts for his lamp model. He will be using polystyrene to create a hemispherical dome for the top of his lamp. This will emerge from a hole cut out of pine 'furniture board' and this in turn will enable the dome to attach to the central cylindrical form of the bottom part of the lamp. This central cylinder is made from aluminium sheet which has been pop rivited together. Seven holes have been drilled around the circumference of the aluminium and these will accomodate nylon spikes that have been turned on the metalwork lathe. These will be attached using epoxy resin adhesive. These spikes have been counter-bored with a step drill so that the light will be transmitted along the nylon to the end of the spike. An energy efficient bulb and holder will be mounted on a wooden base at the bottom of the aluminium section.
Calvin has worked extremely hard over the last few weeks and has easily risen to each and every challenge that his concept has generated along the way.
Even the creation of the mdf former created issues by Calvin persevered with steely determination and kep at it until he was satisfied with the results. Good work, looking forward to seeing the completed model.

The Maria-Theresien street, named after Empress Maria Theresia, is a broad, slightly curved boulevard and commercial street and a central street of Innsbruck, which dates back to the first city expansion in the 13th century. It is one of the busiest streets in the city.
Course
The road runs with a length of about 490 m slightly curved in north-south direction. The northern end forms the intersection with Castle Moat and Market Moat, beyond which leads the Herzog-Friedrich street in the old town. The southern end of the road and the border with Wilten form the Gate of Victory (Triumphal Gate) at the intersection with Maximilian street and Salurn street. The continuation to the south is the Leopold street. Branches cross the Anich street to the west and the Meran street to the east. Passages exist in the east to Sparkassen square and Landhaus square and in the west by the Town Hall Gallery to Adolf-Pichler square.
History
The new town around 1840
The Maria-Theresien street around 1898
The original city of Innsbruck, founded in 1180, soon grew beyond its border formed by city walls and moats (today's Old Town). Along the arterial road heading south to Wilten and on to Brenner, a suburb developed. This settlement, known as nova civitas ("New Town"), originally belonged to the Hofmark court of the Wilten Abbey. On June 5, 1281, Count Meinhard II concluded a treaty with Wilten Abbey, in which, in returm for the exemption from the wine duty, the judiciary on the Neustadt (New Town) from Stift Wilten came to the city of Innsbruck. At that time, however, the area did not reach the Triumphal Gate, which later formed the border between Innsbruck and Wilten, but reached the height of what is today the Old Landhaus (Regional Parliament). There, at the end of the "inner New Town", stood the Upper Gate or Georgentor, which was first mentioned in 1350 and was abolished in 1570. The part south of it (the "outer New City") is attributed only from about 1440 the city of Innsbruck.
In 1315, with the support of Duke Henry of Carinthia and Tyrol, the city's Holy Spirit Hospital was founded at the beginning of New Town, which, as was customary at that time, was located outside the city walls and still reminds the Hospital Church.
In the first few centuries, the loosely built New Town contained mainly craft and commercial enterprises, especially those involved in carriage, such as wainwrights, smiths, saddlers or carpenters. The houses were usually made of wood, after a major fire in 1620 they were allowed to be built by order of the government only of stone. As a result, a closed development developed and with the settlement of high officials and noble families, the magnificent buildings today in the Baroque and Rococo style emerged, such as 1679-1690 the Taxis Palace or 1744-1749 the Palais Lodron. Many of the buildings were designed by representatives of the builder family Gumpp.
1706 was built in thanksgiving for the withdrawal of the Bavarian troops after the Bavarian Rummel in the middle of the road, the Saint Anna's column. The Saint Anna's column was surrounded on both sides by fountains, the fountain of Saint Joseph in the north from 1709 to 1870 and the fountain of Saint Joachim in the south from 1706 to 1732 (today in the Waltherpark in St. Nikolaus). On the occasion of the wedding of Archduke Leopold with the Spanish princess Maria Ludovica of Spain in Innsbruck in 1765, the triumphal arch was erected at the southern end of the new town and the moat filled. In 1897, the town hall was relocated here from the old town.
On December 22, 1873, the citizens' committee (local council) decided to rename the new town in Maria-Theresien street "in memory of its old name Theresian New Town and in consideration of the it closing triumphal arch". From 1891 the initially steam-powered Innsbruck-Hall local train ran through the Maria-Theresien street in Tyrol, and from 1905 also electric inner-city tram lines.
In 1978, the city of Innsbruck and the province of Tyrol declared the Maria Theresien street a conservation zone in which every demolition of a building is prohibited. In an amendment of the Stadtkern- and Ortsbildschutzgesetzes (law for the protection of urban character and downtown area) this was revoked in 2003, however. When the demolition of three buildings was threatened for the new building of the Tyrol department store, the Federal Monuments Office placed the street under Ensemble protection in 2006. The city of Innsbruck convened against it and after heated controversy, especially on the architecture of the planned new building Minister of Culture Claudia Schmied raised the ensemble protection. As a result, three buildings were demolished and replaced in 2010 by a new building.
From 2006 to 2009, the area north of the Anich street was converted into a pedestrian zone. The road with different paving was designed square-like. Since then, the tram has been routed through Anichs street and Castle Moat. The southern section, which is still open to public transport, was also redesigned by 2011.

Use
Bus and tram in the southern Maria-Theresien street
As the main street of Innsbruck, Maria-Theresien street frequently served marches and rallies, such as in the Tyrolean freedom struggle in 1809, during the invasion of German troops after the Annexation of Austria in 1938 or 1945, when Innsbruck was the only major city in the Third Reich to be handed over to the Allied troops without a fight by native regime opponents.
Since the end of the 19th century, the Maria-Theresien street has been an important public transport corridor, which has been crossed by all inner-city tram lines and many bus lines. Today trams and buses drive only through the traffic-calmed section south of Anich street, the northern part was transformed from 2006 to 2009 to the pedestrian zone.
Along the street you will find important facilities such as the Town Hall and the Landhaus as well as numerous shops and shopping centers (Kaufhaus Tyrol, Rathaus-Galerien). With a pedestrian frequency of more than 30,000 people per day, it is one of the six most attractive shopping streets in Austria. It is also used for events such as a Christmas market was in use as Fan Mile at the 2008 European Football Championship.
Die Maria-Theresien-Straße, benannt nach Kaiserin Maria Theresia, ist eine breit angelegte, leicht gekrümmte Pracht- und Geschäftsstraße und ein zentraler Straßenzug Innsbrucks, der auf die erste Stadterweiterung im 13. Jahrhundert zurückgeht. Sie ist eine der am stärksten frequentierten Straßen der Stadt.
Verlauf
Die Straße verläuft mit einer Länge von rund 490 m leicht gekrümmt in Nord-Süd-Richtung. Das nördliche Ende bildet die Kreuzung mit Burggraben und Marktgraben, jenseits davon führt die Herzog-Friedrich-Straße in die Altstadt. Den südlichen Abschluss der Straße sowie die Grenze zu Wilten bildet die Triumphpforte an der Kreuzung mit Maximilianstraße und Salurner Straße. Die Fortsetzung nach Süden ist die Leopoldstraße. Als Querstraßen zweigen versetzt die Anichstraße nach Westen und die Meraner Straße nach Osten ab. Durchgänge bestehen im Osten zum Sparkassenplatz und zum Landhausplatz und im Westen durch die Rathausgalerien zum Adolf-Pichler-Platz.
Geschichte
Die Neustadt um 1840
Die Maria-Theresien-Straße um 1898
Die ursprüngliche Stadt Innsbruck, 1180 gegründet, wuchs schon bald über ihre durch Stadtmauern und -graben gebildete Grenze (die heutige Altstadt) hinaus. Entlang der Ausfallstraße Richtung Süden nach Wilten und weiter zum Brenner entwickelte sich eine Vorstadt. Diese Siedlung, als nova civitas („Neustadt“) bezeichnet, gehörte ursprünglich zum Hofmarkgericht des Stiftes Wilten. Am 5. Juni 1281 schloss Graf Meinhard II. mit dem Stift Wilten einen Vertrag, in dem gegen eine Befreiung vom Weinzoll die Gerichtsgewalt über die Neustadt vom Stift Wilten an die Stadt Innsbruck kam. Das Gebiet reichte damals aber noch nicht bis zur Triumphpforte, die später die Grenze zwischen Innsbruck und Wilten bildete, sondern etwa bis zur Höhe des heutigen Alten Landhauses. Dort, am Ende der „inneren Neustadt“, stand das Obere Tor oder Georgentor, das 1350 erstmals erwähnt und 1570 abgebrochen wurde. Der Teil südlich davon (die „äußere Neustadt“) wird erst ab etwa 1440 der Stadt Innsbruck zugerechnet.
1315 wurde mit der Unterstützung Herzog Heinrichs von Kärnten und Tirol am Beginn der Neustadt das städtische Heilig-Geist-Spital gegründet, das, wie damals üblich, außerhalb der Stadtmauern lag und an das heute noch die Spitalskirche erinnert.
In den ersten Jahrhunderten befanden sich in der nur locker verbauten Neustadt hauptsächlich Handwerks- und Gewerbebetriebe, insbesondere solche, die mit dem Fuhrwesen zu tun hatten, wie Wagner, Schmiede, Sattler oder Tischler. Die Häuser waren in der Regel aus Holz, nach einem Großbrand 1620 durften sie auf Anordnung der Regierung nur noch aus Stein errichtet werden. In der Folge entwickelte sich eine geschlossene Verbauung und mit der Ansiedelung von hohen Beamten und adeligen Familien entstanden die heute das Straßenbild prägenden Prachtbauten im Barock- und Rokokostil, so etwa 1679–1690 das Taxispalais oder 1744–1749 das Palais Lodron. Viele der Bauten wurden von Vertretern der Baumeisterfamilie Gumpp entworfen.
1706 wurde als Dank für den Abzug der bayrischen Truppen nach dem Bayrischen Rummel in der Mitte der Straße die Annasäule errichtet. Die Annasäule war auf beiden Seiten von Brunnen umgeben, dem Josefsbrunnen im Norden von 1709 bis 1870 und dem Joachimsbrunnen im Süden von 1706 bis 1732 (heute im Waltherpark in St. Nikolaus). Anlässlich der Hochzeit von Erzherzog Leopold mit der spanischen Prinzessin Maria Ludovica von Spanien in Innsbruck 1765 wurde am südlichen Ende der Neustadt die Triumphpforte errichtet und der Stadtgraben zugeschüttet. 1897 wurde das Rathaus aus der Altstadt hierher verlegt.
Am 22. Dezember 1873 beschloss der Bürgerausschuss (Gemeinderat) die Umbenennung der Neustadt in Maria-Theresien-Straße „in Erinnerung an ihre alte Bezeichnung theresianische Neustadt und mit Rücksicht auf die sie abschließende Triumphpforte“. Ab 1891 verkehrte die zunächst dampfbetriebene Lokalbahn Innsbruck–Hall in Tirol durch die Maria-Theresien-Straße, ab 1905 auch elektrische innerstädtische Straßenbahnlinien.
1978 wiesen Stadt Innsbruck und Land Tirol die Maria-Theresien-Straße als Erhaltungszone aus, in der jeder Abbruch eines Gebäudes verboten ist. Bei einer Novellierung des Stadtkern- und Ortsbildschutzgesetzes wurde dies 2003 jedoch widerrufen. Als für den Neubau des Kaufhauses Tyrol der Abriss dreier Gebäude drohte, stellte das Bundesdenkmalamt die Straße 2006 unter Ensembleschutz. Die Stadt Innsbruck berief dagegen und nach heftigen Kontroversen insbesondere um die Architektur des geplanten Neubaus hob Kulturministerin Claudia Schmied den Ensembleschutz auf. Daraufhin wurden drei Gebäude abgerissen und 2010 durch einen Neubau ersetzt.
Von 2006 bis 2009 wurde der Bereich nördlich der Anichstraße in eine Fußgängerzone umgewandelt. Die Straße wurde dabei mit unterschiedlicher Pflasterung platzartig gestaltet. Die Straßenbahn wird seither durch Anichstraße bzw. Burggraben geführt. Der südliche Abschnitt, der nach wie vor dem öffentlichen Verkehr zur Verfügung steht, wurde bis 2011 ebenfalls neu gestaltet.

Nutzung
Bus und Straßenbahn in der südlichen Maria-Theresien-Straße
Als Hauptstraße Innsbrucks diente die Maria-Theresien-Straße häufig Aufmärschen und Kundgebungen wie etwa im Tiroler Freiheitskampf 1809, beim Einmarsch deutscher Truppen nach dem Anschluss Österreichs 1938 oder 1945, als Innsbruck als einzige Großstadt des Dritten Reichs von einheimischen Regimegegnern kampflos an die alliierten Truppen übergeben wurde.
Seit dem Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts war die Maria-Theresien-Straße eine wichtige Verkehrsachse für den öffentlichen Verkehr, die von allen innerstädtischen Straßenbahnlinien und vielen Buslinien durchfahren wurde. Heute fahren Straßenbahnen und Busse nur noch durch den verkehrsberuhigten Abschnitt südlich der Anichstraße, der Nordteil wurde von 2006 bis 2009 zur Fußgängerzone umgestaltet.
Entlang der Straße finden sich wichtige Einrichtungen wie das Rathaus und das Landhaus sowie zahlreiche Geschäfte und Einkaufszentren (Kaufhaus Tyrol, Rathaus-Galerien). Mit einer Passantenfrequenz von mehr als 30.000 Personen am Tag zählt sie zu den sechs attraktivsten Einkaufsstraßen Österreichs. Sie wird auch für Veranstaltungen wie einen Christkindlmarkt oder die Fanmeile bei der Fußball-Europameisterschaft 2008 genutzt.

I guess from the apparent ages of the boys that this may have been taken in 1960. They all seem to have left the school in 1962 or 63.
De acuerdo a la pagina de la Armada, después de la derrota de Concón, el día 22 entre las 19.30 horas y las 01.00 horas del día 23, las fuerzas gobiernistas, que se habían reforzado con tropas traídas de Concepción y de Santiago, tomaron posición en los cerros en forma de semicírculo, que corren en la ribera sur del estero Marga Marga y cierran el camino a Valparaíso.
El ala izquierda quedó apoyada en el fuerte Callao (hoy Palacio Presidencial del cerro Castillo) y la derecha a la altura del actual barrio Chorrillos y El Salto.
A pesar de los 8.000 hombres que había reunido el Gobierno, que podían representar un valor militar apreciable, sin embargo por su moral quebrantada después de la derrota de Concón y la falta de municiones, no constituían una barrera apreciable, que se opusiera a las fuerzas congresistas para la ocupación de Valparaíso.
Los planes congresistas tenían previsto iniciar el ataque a las 02.30 horas del día 23, pero debido a la distancia de 800 metros a campo descubierto que existía entre las posiciones gobiernistas y la línea de inicio del ataque congresista (aproximadamente lo que es la avenida 15 Norte, bajada de Santa Inés), se decidió suspenderlo.
A pesar de lo anterior, se produjo un cañoneo entre la artillería gobiernista y la de los congresistas.
Se sumaron a este cañoneo el blindado "Cochrane" , el crucero "Esmeralda", "Aconcagua" y "Cachapoal", que dispararon sobre el flanco izquierda de las fuerzas balmacedistas y el fuerte Callao, sin mayores consecuencias.

Statue of Amun in the form of a Ram protecting King Taharqa (the small statue between the Ram's legs). At least three Ancient Egyptian granitic gneiss statues of Amun in the form of a ram protecting King Taharqa were displayed at the Temple of Amun at Kawa in Nubia. Construction of the stone temple was started in 683 BC by the pharaoh Taharqa. The ram is one of the animals sacred to Amun, and several temples dedicated to Amun, including the one at Karnak featured ram or ram-headed sphinx statues.
Minnesota Transfer Railway (predecessor of Minnesota Commercial Railway) Form 16A and St. Paul Union Depot Company Form 118- Time Report of Yard Enginemen and Switchmen- was used to record work time and service of yard enginemen and switchmen.
Minnesota Transfer Railway was incorporated in 1883 and located in the Midway area of St. Paul. The railroad was owned by the railroads that then served the Twin Cities--Chicago, Burlington & Quincy; Chicago Great Western; Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha; Great Northern; Chicago, Milwaukee, Saint Paul; Minneapolis & St; Louis; Northern Pacific; Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific; and Minneapolis, Saint Paul, Sault St. Marie. Minnesota Transfer handled interchange between the owning railroads to lessen congestion in the Twin Cities.
The above nine railroads joined to form the Saint Paul Union Depot Company in 1879 to better serve railroad passengers in St. Paul by building and operating a single passenger terminal- the St. Paul Depot.
With the vacuum cleaner running, push the frame and the hot plastic down onto the mould until the frame seals against the weather stripping -- and BAM, the plastic slams down onto the mould.

De forme rectangulaire, cette porte construite en 1420 fait écho à la celle de la Floraison ou Gloire occidentale (Xihuamen). Avec sa plate-forme rouge, elle repose sur un socle en marbre blanc selon un style bouddhiste, bâtiment dans lequel sont percées les trois passages voutés. La tour carrée et son double toit, avec 5 arches de large et 3 m de profondeur est entourée de colonnes de marbre blanc. Au début de la dynastie Qing, seuls les fonctionnaires du Cabinet étaient autorisés à passer par cette porte, alors qu'au milieu du règne de Qianlong, les ministres âgés du premier degré et du second degré avaient ce privilège. Les cercueils des empereurs Qing, les impératrices et les régents avaient aussi l'autorisation d'y passer, d'où le nom de Guimen : porte de fantôme). Celle-ci dispose de 8 clous, et non 9 comme les autres, du fait que le 9 est le chiffre de l'empereur et 8 celui des choses fantomatiques (cf.wikipedia).
