It is one of the most unique buildings of Tarragona's modern architecture. It can be described as rationalist, but the influence of Art Deco is quite evident. It was designed by Salvador Ripoll Sahagún and was built between 1944 and 1948. It is characterized by its curved corner, with a wide gallery on the first floor, balconies on the rest of the floors and a cylindrical tower at the top. You should also pay attention to the blown cornice and the treatment of the openings, slightly outlined with a simple molding and visually paired with the presence of an intermediate body that joins them.
The Heritage Inventory calls it "House of Magdalena Betbesé Rodés de Sanjuan", after the name of the owner. It is also known as "Casa Calvet", by the name of the tenants. For many years its basement was occupied by the popular El Faro warehouses (because of the building's lighthouse shape), which ended up giving the house its name.
nrhp # 66000045- Fort Davis National Historic Site is a United States National Historic Site located in the unincorporated community of Fort Davis, Jeff Davis County, Texas. Located within the Davis Mountains of West Texas, the historic site was established in 1961 to protect one of the best remaining examples of a United States Army fort in the southwestern United States.
Established in October 1854 along the Limpia Creek at Painted Comanche Camp by Bvt. Maj. Gen. Persifor Frazer Smith, Fort Davis was named after Jefferson Davis who later became President of the Confederate States of America.[2]: 4 "Hoping to protect the garrison from winter northers, Smith tucked the fort into a canyon flanked on three sides by sheer rock walls." Commanding the post was 8th Infantry Regiment commander Lt. Col. Washington Seawell.
Other forts in the frontier fort system were Forts Griffin, Concho, Belknap, Chadbourne, Stockton, Richardson, Bliss, McKavett, Clark, McIntosh, Inge, and Phantom Hill in Texas, and Fort Sill in Oklahoma. "Sub posts or intermediate stations" also were used, including Bothwick's Station on Salt Creek between Fort Richardson and Fort Belknap, Camp Wichita near Buffalo Springs between Fort Richardson and Red River Station, and Mountain Pass between Fort Concho and Fort Griffin.
From 1854 to 1891, Fort Davis was strategically located to protect emigrants, mail coaches, and freight wagons on the trans-Pecos portion of the San Antonio-El Paso Road and the Chihuahua Trail, and to control activities on the southern stem of the Great Comanche War Trail and Mescalero Apache war trails.
The fort was evacuated in April 1861 under orders from General David E. Twiggs at the start of the Civil War. During John R. Baylor's invasion of New Mexico, only 20 Confederate States Army troops defended the fort. On the night of 4 August 1861, Mescalero Apaches raided a nearby cattle pen, and during the pursuit on 11 August, Lt. Reuben E. Mays and all but one of his 13-man patrol were killed in an ambush. This defeat convinced Baylor to staff the fort with three officers and 70 enlisted men. The Confederates evacuated the fort and all other posts west of Fort Clark in August 1862.
Fort Davis is important in understanding the presence of African Americans in the West and in the frontier military because the 24th and 25th U.S. Infantry regiments and the 9th and 10th U.S. Cavalry regiments, all-black regiments (known as the buffalo soldiers), which were established after the Civil War, were stationed at the post. Lt. Col. Wesley Merritt led Troops C, F, H, and I of the 9th Cavalry in reoccupying the fort on 29 June 1867. They rebuilt the fort, using limestone and adobe, outside the canyon walls.

There was one intermediate station on the New Ross branch, at Glenmore some 6 miles south of New Ross. Maps show it was down a back road (probably little more than a cart track) and I don't think we ever found it, but this view somewhere near Glenmore of 182 with the 15.25 New Ross - Waterford goods gives an idea of the countryside served by the branch.
182 was scrapped in August 2006.

Seen about a year after delivery, First Bristol 35148 SN65OMS was delivered with 9 other Streetdecks liveried for the 90 service and wearing a red front. A headway reduction saw it painted with a neutral sky blue front as seen here in Sep 2016, but it would soon gain a third colour scheme in about a year when it gained Mendip Explorer colours.

FORT BRAGG, N.C. – Completed in April 2012, the new Irwin Intermediate School at Fort Bragg opened just in time for the 2012-2013 school year. Construction on the $14.9 million, 112,025-square-foot facility began in 2010 and was managed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Savannah District. The new school replaces the original Irwin building built in 1962. The school was formally dedicated with an opening ceremony on Sept. 27, 2012. It was named in memory of Lt. Gen. Stafford Leroy Irwin, who served as the post commander from 1946 to 1948. Located off of Normandy Drive, near Butler and Murray elementary schools, the new Irwin School serves 725 students in grades two through five. Amenities include art, music, and general purpose classrooms, computer labs, a playground, gymnasium, and multipurpose rooms with a stage and kitchen. Within the past few years, the Savannah District has completed more than $100 million in family support projects at Fort Bragg, including schools and child development centers. Between 2013 and 2020, another $90 million is budgeted for continued school development on Fort Bragg. USACE photo by Tracy Robillard, Sept. 12, 2012.

Rethinking the modern road bike saddle with some old fashioned technology. Similar to an leather saddle with a steel frame the Fizik Kurve uses a aluminum rail and frame that suspends a flexible composite shell which flexes as you ride.
Not much padding. The Kurve saddle has just enough padding to alleviate pressure but not too much that might bunch up and cause pressure points. The saddle shell is flexible and moves with the rider has they pedal. Don't think of this saddle as been in the same category as any other. It's a game changer and unlike anything you have ever ridden.
The rail is another comfort enhancer. Instead of plugging into the rear of the saddle, the 2014 aluminium rails are forged in a loop that suspends the hull at its ends. This noticeably increases the amount the Kurve gives in the middle, especially in the long-bodied Snake version. You can tune the flex by swapping the ‘Tuner’ at the nose between ‘soft’ and ‘hard’ included with each saddle.
Available in three versions, Fizik suggest the flexibility of any rider impacts the way they sit in the saddle. Less flexible is Bull(Aliante), Intermediate is Chameleon(Antares) and flexible is Snake(Arione)
Not the lightest saddle. Actual weight 220-230 grams the Kurve range hold there own in the performance category but surpass the rest when it comes to the comfort to weight ratio.
Well worth the try. Well worth the investment.
