Asklepios is a point-of-care research system that integrates the GeneFluidics electrochemical sensor technology with a microfluidics cartridge. The result is a revolution in molecular analysis - complete automated sample preparation and detection in a small, portable package.

 

Within the microfluidics cartridge, Asklepios performs the same sample preparation steps that would normally be performed on the laboratory bench: reagent delivery, washing, mixing, and target molecule detection.

 

The system utilizes a modular microfluidics cartridge with configurable functional components. Application-specific components are inserted into the universal cartridge case. A single cartridge configuration can run a variety of assays. By interchanging the modular components, the possible assay configurations are limitless.

 

The universal electrochemical sensor array allows detection of multiple targets from a single sample. The revolutionary sensor technology allows any combination of different RNA, DNA, and protein targets to be detected simultaneous in the same cartridge.

 

After the cartridge has been loaded into the system, the onboard process control runs the entire assay within the cartridge. Typical experiments are complete and results displayed in less than 90 minutes.

We had a trip to Prague in January – for Jayne’s birthday - we don’t buy Christmas or birthday presents, we travel instead. We left snowy England for a very, very dull and grey Czech Republic. Yet again I was on a photographic downer looking at the weather forecast, grey is the colour that haunts me. Fortunately it was dull grey and not burnt highlight inducing bright grey.With the grey sky acting like a big diffuser I was going to have deep shadow and contrast to deal with. We had three very short spells of broken cloud which gave us a bit of sun and colour, which I managed to more or less anticipate so we managed to be in decent locations every time – generally somewhere high.

 

We had been upgraded to a five star hotel, apparently our original choice was flooded. We got compensation and five star hotel upgrade– a first for me. The Art Nouveau Palace has a beautiful interior, with beautiful rooms, the breakfast room was fantastic, as was the breakfast it has to be said. We were able to have an early breakfast so were out on foot just after eight. It was very cold – and dull! We spent the whole week well wrapped up. It drizzled for a day, but never really wet us, it snowed for a day, again we didn’t get wet and the snow didn’t settle. We walked 65 mile, spending plenty of time checking buildings and their interiors out – and coffee shop and bar interiors it has to be said. Although it was dull and sometimes wet I decided that the Camera was staying in my hands for the whole trip. Whenever I put it in my backpack for one reason or another I regret it.

 

Again, I didn’t look at any photographs of Prague before we got there, I like to just walk and discover, with the DK guidebook in my pocket (which is full of photos it has to be said). We like to get off the beaten track and see the grittier side of the places we visit – within reason! Prague has an incredible tram network, over 1000 trams – with many of them Tatra Eastern Bloc machines. The system seems chaotic but in reality it is incredible with one of the largest networks and highest usages in the world. The trams and cars frequently share the same road space with very little in the way of drama, none of the inexplicable and pathetic constant horn blowing one finds in many countries. Once it became apparent that buildings with a grey blanket as a background were going to be a bit un-inspirational I decided that the trams would be a good focal point instead. Where I have photographed one of the older trams against a background without clues it is easy to imagine that the photos were taken fifty years ago.

 

The train network also provided photo opportunities. The rolling stock ranges from old Eastern Bloc to very modern double decker’s and pendolinos. There are three stations although we visited the main station and Smichov. The main station interior is art deco and has been renovated by a private company. The exterior and the platforms are very rundown with a grim eastern bloc 1950’s feel –but it works! We discovered to our amusement that we could just walk across multiple lines, no health and safety, just keep your eyes open and don’t walk under a train – you’ll make a mess. Smichov station was grim, it didn’t help that it snowed all day and was grey and bitter. We felt like we were in a 50’s film set in Russia, broken concrete platforms and dereliction. With both stations there was another world underneath them. The underground Metro is running seamlessly and efficiently away beneath your feet. I didn’t have any problems taking photos anywhere but I was very open and obviously a tourist, I didn’t act covertly or suspiciously. There was only one occasion I was stopped and that was in a shopping centre – full of CCTV cameras filming everyone else!

 

We discovered old and beautiful- and very large- shopping centres hidden away in quite a few places. Brass framed windows and doors, shops thriving, there was a massive camera shop with thousands of second hand cameras, too much to look at. Many of the landmark buildings prevent photography, some make a small charge, some encourage it, the DK guide book gives a good indication regarding camera use. Nothing stops many people though, they just shoot away regardless, usually wanting a picture that includes their self. Prague is surrounded by low hills and has a fair few towers that you can pay a few pounds to go up, so viewpoints are plentiful. I think we visited most of them. I read about the Zizkov Tower, which looks like a Soviet rocket on the horizon and we headed straight for it - after crossing the rail lines! Set in a quiet residential area, there wasn’t a soul about. Two beautiful girls on reception and we parted with a few pounds, into the lift and were on the observation deck with no one else up there. There are fantastic views over the city, but! It is through two layers of not very clean glass so you go for the view rather than sharp panoramas. Still a fascinating place, with a nice café bar and very clean toilets – there are toilets everywhere, usually manned with a fee. Places are well staffed compared with home were three students are supposed to run a 20 screen multiplex cinema.

 

Graffiti was prominent, no matter how grand the monument, some moron would have daubed it. How do they get away with it in a 24 hour city centre with a strong police presence? The place is very clean, constantly being swept. What did surprise me, was that many buildings, that looked grand and built of stone, from a distance, were actually rendered with very low quality brickwork concealed. When restored the building look very impressive, others are missing the outer render from ground level to a fair height.

 

I need to cut this short really, I like to put a background story to the photos and although it would be better to individualise it to a specific photo or group of photos I don’t have the time to do that. I do try to give specific detail in the title bar after I have uploaded, this is time consuming enough although I’m pretty proficient at it by now. There are many things I would like to write that should be of interest to anyone thinking of going to Prague but I’ll have to let the pictures do the talking. As usual I am unlikely to be selective enough with my uploads, I’m not very good at leaving photos out so I just upload and be damned.

 

First time I've found these in 5 years (5 seasons) of looking. Ate them for breakfast this morning - delicious!

RiverPark 16 Multiplex - Amazing restoration - They wanted to let you know this was the original 1960 version but there wasn't room........

A week later I heard the score played live by the Los Angeles Philharmonic.

The Pathé ArenA is one of Pathé's largest multiplexes in The Netherlands and opened it's doors in April 2000. It has 14 auditoriums of which one has an IMAX screen (the smallest in the world probably), ready to please a max of 3250 patrons.

The building is coated with stainless steel panels, similar to the Pathé Schouwburgplein in Rotterdam, as well as the old IMAX Waterstad in Rotterdam.

Designed by de Architekten Cie. architects.

Picture was taken from the train platform of station "Bijlmer", which is pretty much the only place to get a good overview of the place. Photo is a stitched panorama.

Was going through and cleaning up my die-shots folder when I noticed I hadn't published a few chips which were good enough to post, so here they are.

 

This was taken from an old colour printer, not sure of the model.

 

According to the datasheet, it contains analog multiplexers and demultiplexers.

Fitzgerald Constructions. - Convention Centre Bridge later named as Seafarers Bridge was designed and constructed for the Plenary Group (Multiplex Brookfield/Plenary Consortium) who had been contracted by the Victorian State Government, to deliver the bridge and New Convention Centre.

Seafarer's bridge provides an important pedestrian and cycle link from the Convention Centre and its associated, hotel, retail, commercial and residential development to Docklands in the north and to the north bank of the Yarra River. The bridge further adds a key link in the pedestrian and cycle network by connecting Docklands to Southbank at South Wharf. Combined with pedestrian and cycle paths through the Convention Centre site, links will also be created to South Melbourne.

The Bridge is a striking contemporary design with a structure that minimises the visual impact upon the Yarra River yet, emphasises the area with its elegant steel structural arches.

The structural design solution of the bridge has resulted in an elegant, composite steel and concrete deck spanning across the Yarra River, supported by arch-shaped steel structural members. Steel cables support the deck and link up to the steel arches above.

The arch structures are asymmetrical with four arches fanning out from the south bank concrete pier adjacent to the Convention Centre and three arches fanning out from a concrete pier from the north bank. The arches lengths range from 10 to 24.5 metres.

Clear glass balustrades, approximately one metre high on both sides of the bridge will mean that it will present minimal visual intrusion into views along the Yarra River. This together with aluminium cladding on the sides and underside of the bridge, compliment the slender design of the bridge.

The overall width of the bridge is 8.6 metres. It is divided into two side carriageways dedicated for pedestrians, each carriageway being approximately two metres clear width. The central carriageway is 4.6 metres clear width and is dedicated for bicycles. This central carriageway can, be used for access by a motor vehicle.

The design of the bridge provides clearance for river traffic which supports and introduces numerous visitors and tourists along the Yarra River Precinct.

Seafarers Bridge received the Australian Steel Institute Judges Special Award 2010 and as part of the new Melbourne Convention Centre, it received the Victorian Architecture Medal at the Victorian Architecture Awards in 2010, Australian Construction Achievement Award and soon after, won the Public Architecture Award at the Australian National Architecture Awards.

The Galeries des Sources shopping centre straddles the municipal border between the Montreal "West Island" suburbs of Dorval, to the south, and Dollard-des-Ormeaux, to the north. It is also within spitting distance of the eastern border of Pointe-Claire. It sits on land at the northeast corner of the des Sources exit on Highway 40, with the Highway 40 north service road to the south, Sources Boulevard to the west, and Brunswick Boulevard to the north.

 

It was opened in 1966 as the West Island Mall, and was part of Steinberg's Ivanhoe chain of shopping centres. The major tenants were a Steinberg's supermarket, a Miracle Mart, Steinberg's discount department store chain, and Consumer's Distributing (a store with a cumbersome system where you had to fill out a little form to order stuff from a catalogue, and, if it was in stock, it would be brought to the counter; it was very similar to Argos in Britain).

 

The mall was hit very hard by the closure of Steinberg's and Miracle Mart in the early 1990's, and by the closure of Consumer's Distributing in the mid-1990s, but it was brought back to life in the late 1990s as an "outlet mall", where several big box stores, restaurants, and the Guzzo des Sources 10 multiplex, were opened along the outside of the mall. The inside of the mall beyond the Super C supermarket and Bureau en Gros (Staples Office Depot) was really struggling for years, with a lot of vacant storefronts, but, when I visited the mall for the first time in at least half a decade in May 2008, the interior mall seemed to be much healthier than I remember in the late 1990s, with most storefronts occupied and plenty of customers.

Wembley Stadium (branded as Wembley Stadium connected by EE for sponsorship reasons) is an association football stadium in Wembley, London. It opened in 2007 on the site of the original Wembley Stadium, which had stood from 1923 until 2003. The stadium hosts major football matches including home matches of the England national football team, and the FA Cup Final. Wembley Stadium is owned by the governing body of English football, the Football Association (the FA), whose headquarters are in the stadium, through its subsidiary Wembley National Stadium Ltd (WNSL). With 90,000 seats, it is the largest stadium in the UK and the second-largest stadium in Europe.

 

Designed by Populous and Foster and Partners, the stadium is crowned by the 134-metre-high (440 ft) Wembley Arch which serves aesthetically as a landmark across London as well as structurally, with the arch supporting over 75% of the entire roof load. The stadium was built by Australian firm Multiplex at a cost of £798 million (£1.27 billion today). Two partially retractable roof structures over the east and west ends of the stadium can be opened to allow sunlight and aid pitch growth.

 

In addition to England home games and the FA Cup final, the stadium also hosts other major games in English football, including the season-opening FA Community Shield, the League Cup final, the FA Cup semi-finals, the Football League Trophy, the Football League play-offs, the FA Trophy, the FA Vase and the National League play-offs. A UEFA category four stadium, Wembley hosted the 2011 and 2013 UEFA Champions League Finals, eight games at UEFA Euro 2020 (including the final and both of the semi-finals),[ UEFA Euro 2028, and hosted the final of the UEFA Women's Euro 2022. It will stage the 2024 UEFA Champions League Final. The stadium hosted the gold-medal matches at the 2012 Olympic Games football tournament. The stadium also hosts rugby league's Challenge Cup final and music concerts. The stadium also hosted NFL London Games until 2019 and was also the temporary home of Premier League football club Tottenham Hotspur between August 2017 and March 2019, while White Hart Lane was being demolished and their new stadium was constructed.

 

In 2014, Wembley Stadium entered into a six-year sponsorship agreement with mobile provider EE Limited, under which it provides technology and infrastructure services for the venue. Under the agreement, the facility is officially referred to as "Wembley Stadium connected by EE". The deal was renewed in 2019 for a further 5 years, as part of EE's parent company BT's sponsorship deal with the England football team.

 

Stadium

Wembley was designed by architects Foster + Partners and HOK Sport (now Populous) and with engineers Mott Stadium Consortium, who were a collection of three structural engineering consultants in the form of Mott MacDonald, Sinclair Knight Merz and Aurecon. The design of the building services was carried out by Mott MacDonald. The construction of the stadium was managed by Australian company Multiplex and funded by Sport England, WNSL (Wembley National Stadium Limited), the Football Association, the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport and the London Development Agency. It is one of the most expensive stadia ever built at a cost of £798 million in 2007, and has the largest roof-covered seating capacity in the world. Nathaniel Lichfield and Partners was appointed to assist Wembley National Stadium Limited in preparing the scheme for a new stadium and to obtain planning and listed building permission for the development.

 

The all-seater stadium is a bowl design with a capacity of 90,000, protected from the elements by a sliding roof that does not completely enclose it. The stadium's signature feature is a circular section lattice arch of 7 m (23 ft) internal diameter with a 315 m (1,033 ft) span, erected some 22° off true, and rising to 133 m (436 ft). It supports all the weight of the north roof and 60% of the weight of the retractable roof on the southern side. The arch is the world's longest unsupported roof structure.

 

A platform system was designed in order to temporarily convert the stadium to athletics use, but its use would decrease the stadium's capacity to approximately 60,000. No athletics events (track and field) have taken place at the stadium; the conversion for athletics use was a condition of part of the lottery funding the stadium received, but to convert it would take weeks of work and cost millions of pounds. Instead, with the awarding of the 2012 Summer Olympic Games to London in 2005, the London Olympic Stadium has been used for major athletics events since 2012.

 

Construction

The initial plan for the reconstruction of Wembley Stadium was for demolition to begin before Christmas 2000, and for the new stadium to be completed some time during 2003, but this work was delayed by a succession of financial and legal difficulties. In 2004, London Mayor Ken Livingstone and Brent Council also announced wider plans for the regeneration of Wembley, taking in the arena and the surrounding areas as well as the stadium, to be implemented over two or three decades. Demolition officially began on 30 September 2002, with the Twin Towers being dismantled in December 2002.

 

Delays to the construction project started as far back as 2003. In December 2003, the constructors of the arch, subcontractors Cleveland Bridge & Engineering Company of Darlington, warned Multiplex about rising costs. Cleveland Bridge withdrew from the project and were replaced by Dutch firm Hollandia, with all the attendant problems of starting over. 2004 also saw errors, most notably a fatal accident involving carpenter Patrick O'Sullivan for which construction firm PC Harrington Contractors were fined £150,000 in relation to breaches of health and safety laws.

 

In October 2005, Sports Minister Richard Caborn announced: "They say the Cup Final will be there, barring six feet of snow or something like that". By November 2005, WNSL were still hopeful of a handover date of 31 March, in time for the cup final on 13 May. However, in December 2005, the builders admitted that there was a "material risk" that the stadium might not be ready in time for the final. In February 2006 these worries were confirmed, with the FA moving the game to Cardiff's Millennium Stadium.

 

On 20 March 2006, a steel rafter in the roof of the new development fell by 1+1⁄2 ft (46 cm), forcing 3,000 workers to evacuate the stadium and raising further doubts over the completion date which was already behind schedule. On 23 March 2006, sewers beneath the stadium buckled due to ground movement. GMB Union leader Steve Kelly said that the problem had been caused by the pipes not being properly laid, and that the repair would take months. A spokesman for developers Multiplex said that they did not believe this would "have any impact on the completion of the stadium", which was then scheduled to be completed on 31 March 2006.

 

On 30 March 2006, the developers announced that Wembley Stadium would not be ready until 2007. All competitions and concerts planned were to be moved to suitable locations. On 19 June 2006, it was announced that the turf had been laid. On 19 October 2006 it was announced that the venue was now set to open in early 2007 after the dispute between the Football Association and Multiplex had finally been settled. WNSL was expected to pay around £36m to Multiplex, on top of the amount of the original fixed-price contract. The total cost of the project (including local transport infrastructure redevelopment and the cost of financing) was estimated to be £1 billion.

 

For the new stadium the level of the pitch was lowered. During excavation of the new playing field, mechanical diggers unearthed a buried obstruction: the concrete foundations of Watkin's Tower, a failed attempt to construct a rival to the Eiffel Tower in London. Only the base of the tower was ever built before being abandoned and demolished in 1907; the site was later used as the location for the first Wembley Stadium.

 

Handover and opening

The new stadium was completed and handed over to the FA on 9 March 2007. The official Wembley Stadium website had announced that the stadium would be open for public viewing for local residents of Brent on 3 March 2007, however this was delayed by two weeks and instead happened on 17 March.

 

While the stadium had hosted football matches since the handover in March, the stadium was officially opened on Saturday 19 May, with the staging of the 2007 FA Cup Final. Eight days before that on Friday 11 May, the statue of Bobby Moore had been unveiled by his former England team-mate Sir Bobby Charlton outside the stadium entrance, as the "finishing touch" to the completion of the stadium. The twice life-size bronze statue, sculpted by Philip Jackson, depicts England's 1966 World Cup winning captain Bobby Moore, looking down Wembley Way.

 

Structure

The stadium contains 2,618 toilets, more than any other venue in the world.

The stadium has a circumference of 1 km (0.62 mi).

The bowl volume is listed at 1,139,100 m3 (1,489,900 cu yd), somewhat smaller than the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff, but with a greater seating capacity.

At its peak, there were more than 3,500 construction workers on site.

4,000 separate piles form the foundations of the new stadium, the deepest of which is 35 m (115 ft).

There are 56 km (35 mi) of heavy-duty power cables in the stadium.

90,000 m3 (120,000 cu yd) of concrete and 23,000 tonnes (25,000 short tons) of steel were used in the construction of the new stadium.

The total length of the escalators is 400 metres (1⁄4 mi).[36]

The arch has a cross-sectional diameter greater than that of a cross-channel Eurostar train.

Pitch

 

Wembley Stadium pitch during England friendly against Germany in August 2007

The pitch size, as lined for association football, is 115 yd (105 m) long by 75 yd (69 m) wide, slightly narrower than the old Wembley, as required by the UEFA stadium categories for a category four stadium, the top category.

 

In a period after the completion of the new Wembley, the pitch came into disrepute. It was described as being "no good" and "not in the condition that Wembley used to be known for" by Slaven Bilić before a game between England and the team he managed, Croatia, in November 2007. The pitch was cut up during the game, which was blamed by some as the reason England did not qualify for UEFA Euro 2008. The Football Association admitted in April 2009, after the FA Cup semi-finals, that improvements were needed to the Wembley pitch, after criticism of the surface by coaches Sir Alex Ferguson, Arsène Wenger and David Moyes.

 

In March 2010, the surface was relaid for the tenth time since opening. In April 2010, the pitch was again criticised following the FA Cup semi-finals, during which the players found it difficult to keep their footing and the surface cut up despite the dry conditions. The then Tottenham Hotspur boss, Harry Redknapp, labelled it a "disgrace" after his side's semi-final defeat to Portsmouth. After the 2010 FA Cup Final, Chelsea captain John Terry said, "The pitch ruined the final. It's probably the worst pitch we've played on all year. It was not good enough for a Wembley pitch." The stadium was then relaid with a Desso GrassMaster semi-artificial pitch, ahead of the 2010 community shield game between Chelsea and Manchester United. Michael Owen, who previously criticised the pitch for causing him injury, said that it was much improved.

 

Wembley has been used for American football matches in the National Football League's International Series. Tottenham Hotspur hosted Manchester City in a Premier League match on 29 October 2018, a day after Wembley hosted the Philadelphia Eagles and Jacksonville Jaguars. Due to the short turnaround, faded gridiron markings and the NFL logo were clearly visible on the pitch along with worn grass along the centre of the pitch and the touch-lines. Tottenham were forced to hold the match at Wembley due to construction delays to their new ground. Despite the pitch's condition, UEFA allowed a Champions League leg to be played at Wembley on 6 November 2018 with Tottenham hosting Dutch side PSV Eindhoven.

 

Covering

The stadium roof has an area of 40,000 m2 (430,000 sq ft), of which 13,722 m2 (147,700 sq ft) is movable. The primary reason for the sliding roof was to avoid shading the pitch, as grass demands direct sunlight to grow effectively. The sliding roof design minimises the shadow by having the roof pulled back on the east, west and south. Angus Campbell, the chief architect, also said that an aim was for the pitch to be in sunlight during matches played between 3 pm and 5 pm from the beginning of May to the end of June, when the FA and World Cups would be played. However, it was mentioned during live commentary of the mid-May 2007 FA Cup Final that the pitch was in partial shade at the start at 3 pm and also during the match.

 

The stadium roof rises to 52 metres (171 ft) above the pitch and is supported by an arch rising 133 m (436 ft) above the level of the external concourse. With a span of 315 m (1,033 ft), the arch is the longest single-span roof structure in the world.

 

Litigation

The Australian firm Multiplex, which was the main contractor on Wembley Stadium, made significant losses on the project. In an attempt to recoup some of those losses, the firm initiated a number of legal cases against its sub-contractors and consultants. The largest of these – the largest construction claim in UK legal history – was a claim for £253 million against the structural engineering consultants Mott MacDonald.

 

In preliminary hearings the two architecture practices which worked for Multiplex on the project were ordered to allow Multiplex access to their records for them to build a case. The practices, Foster + Partners and Populous, estimated the costs of providing access and answering Multiplex's queries at £5 million. Mott MacDonald issued a counter-claim for unpaid fees of £250,000.

 

The dispute between Multiplex and Mott MacDonald was settled out of court in June 2010, ahead of a January 2011 trial. The terms of the settlement not disclosed, but it was reported that Multiplex "would not be out of pocket".

 

Multiplex also took the original steel contractor, Cleveland Bridge, to court claiming £38 million compensation for costs resulting from Cleveland Bridge withdrawing from the project. Cleveland Bridge, in turn, claimed up to £15 million from Multiplex. The case was resolved in September 2008 with Cleveland Bridge ordered to pay £6.1 million in damages and 20% of Multiplex's costs, after the court found against Cleveland Bridge. The judge criticised both sides for allowing the case to reach court, pointing out that total costs were £22 million, including £1 million for photocopying. Multiplex's ultimate bill is estimated to be over £10 million. In 2007, Multiplex also contested a claim from its concrete contractor, PC Harrington, that Multiplex owes £13.4 million to PC Harrington.

 

Bid to buy

In April 2018, Shahid Khan, the owner of Fulham F.C. and the Jacksonville Jaguars, put forward an offer to purchase Wembley Stadium from the FA. The deal included not only the purchase of the stadium, but also providing the FA full rights to keep control of the Club Wembley business. On 18 July 2018, a parliamentary select committee was held to discuss the possible sale, with evidence being given by former player, Gary Neville, and Katrina Law of the Football Supporters' Federation. The offer was withdrawn on 17 October 2018.

 

Sport

Given the ownership of the stadium by the Football Association (the governing body of English football), the England national football team is a major user of Wembley. In 2007, the League Cup final moved back to Wembley from Cardiff following the FA Cup final and FA Community Shield. Other showpiece football matches that were previously staged at Wembley, such as the Football League promotion play-offs and the Football League Trophy final, have returned to the stadium. In addition, the Conference National (now National League) play-off final is held at Wembley since 2007, and the FA Women's Cup final since 2015.

 

The new Wembley was a significant part of the plan for the 2012 Summer Olympics in London; the stadium was the site of several games in both the men's and women's football tournaments, with the finals being held there. The FA offices at Wembley Stadium, with social areas and boardroom, were designed by architects Gebler Tooth – who were also responsible for Team GB House at the London 2012 Olympics.

 

Additionally, the Rugby League Challenge Cup Final returned to Wembley Stadium in 2007, and the stadium also hosted both semi-finals of the 2013 Rugby League World Cup. Wembley was one of the 13 venues for the 2015 Rugby World Cup.

 

The Race of Champions staged their 2007 and 2008 events at the stadium.

 

Tottenham Hotspur agreed with the operators (Wembley National Stadium Ltd) to use the stadium for all of their European fixtures during the 2016–17 season, before using the stadium for the entire 2017–18 season. They also played most of their home games of the 2018–19 season at Wembley and continued until April 2019 when they moved to their new stadium.

 

Regular events

Wembley Stadium has a series of annual events that under normal circumstances are hosted at Wembley every year. These events cover the sports of football, rugby league and American football.

Football

 

The first match at the stadium was a game played behind closed doors between Multiplex and Wembley Stadium staff. The first game in front of spectators was between the Geoff Thomas Foundation Charity XI and the Wembley Sponsors Allstars on 17 March 2007. The Geoff Thomas Foundation Charity XI won 2–0 (scorers Mark Bright and Simon Jordan). The first official match involving professional players was England U21s vs Italy U21s on 24 March 2007, which finished 3–3. Official attendance was 55,700 (although all of the 60,000 tickets that were made available were sold in advance). The first player to score in a FIFA-sanctioned match was Italian striker Giampaolo Pazzini after 28 seconds of the same game; he also scored the first hat-trick at Wembley. The first English player to score in a full-scale match was David Bentley with a free kick in the same game.

 

The first club game, competitive game, and cup final held at the new Wembley took place on 12 May 2007 when Kidderminster Harriers met Stevenage Borough in the FA Trophy final.[78] Kidderminster striker James Constable was the first player to score a goal in a final at the new Wembley. Kidderminster became the first team to play at both the old and new stadium. Stevenage Borough were the first team to win a final at the new Wembley beating Kidderminster 3–2, despite trailing 2–0 at half time. The first players to play at both the old and new Wembley Stadiums were Steve Guppy (for Stevenage Borough) and Jeff Kenna (for Kidderminster Harriers). Ex-England international Guppy is also the first player to win a final at both stadia (with Wycombe Wanderers and Leicester City in the old Wembley, then Stevenage Borough in the new one). Ronnie Henry is the first ever player to lift a competitive club trophy at the new Wembley.

 

City in 2008. The 89,874 attendance is the largest football attendance in the new Wembley's history.

The first penalty save and first red card came in the Conference National playoff final between Exeter City and Morecambe. The penalty was saved by Paul Jones of Exeter City from Morecambe striker Wayne Curtis. The red card was given to Matthew Gill of Exeter for a headbutt on Craig Stanley of Morecambe.

 

The first Football League teams to play at Wembley in a competitive fixture were Bristol Rovers and Shrewsbury Town in the 2007 Football League Two play-off final on 26 May 2007. Shrewsbury Town became the first league team to score at Wembley via a Stewart Drummond goal, they also the first league team to have a player sent off, in this case – Marc Tierney Bristol Rovers won the game 3–1 in front of 61,589 which was a stadium record until the Championship play-off final two days later when Derby County beat West Bromwich Albion 1–0 to become the first team at the new stadium to win promotion to the FA Premier League.

 

The first FA Cup Final at the new Wembley (between Manchester United and Chelsea) was on 19 May 2007, with a crowd attendance of 89,826. Chelsea won 1–0 with a goal by Didier Drogba, making him the first player to score in the FA Cup Final at the new Wembley – the first male player to score in four separate FA Cup Finals. Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Čech also became the first goalkeeper not to concede a goal in a competitive game at Wembley. Chelsea were the last winners of the cup final at the old Wembley and the first winners at the new.

 

The first game involving the full England national team was a friendly played on 1 June 2007, against Brazil. The match saw captain John Terry become the first England international goal scorer at the new stadium when he scored in the 68th minute. Diego became the first full international player to score for a visiting team when he scored in stoppage time, with the full-time result being a 1–1 draw. The first competitive senior international was played on 8 September 2007 between England and Israel. This game ended 3–0. The first player to score international goals at both the old and new stadia was Michael Owen when he scored for England against Israel. On 22 August Germany beat England 2–1 to become the first team to beat them in the new stadium. England's first competitive defeat at the new stadium was on 21 November 2007 when Croatia won 3–2. This match cost England qualification to Euro 2008 and head coach Steve McClaren his job.

 

The second FA Cup final held at the new stadium took place on 17 May 2008, with Portsmouth winning the title 1–0 against Cardiff City; Nwankwo Kanu scored the only goal. The final's 89,874 crowd attendance remains the largest football attendance in the new Wembley's history.

 

Wembley Stadium hosted the UEFA Champions League Final for the first time on 28 May 2011 when Barcelona played Manchester United. The stadium hosted the 2013 UEFA Champions League Final between Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund, and in September 2019 it was named the host for the 2023 UEFA Champions League Final. Due to adjustments of the 2020 final caused by the COVID-19 pandemic in Europe, it will stage the following season's final instead.

 

During the 2012 Olympics, Great Britain defeated Brazil in the first women's international to take place at the stadium. On 23 November 2014 the England women's team played at the stadium for the first time when they lost 3–0 to Germany in a friendly.

 

The stadium, with pandemic restrictions, hosted the UEFA Euro 2020, which included all three of England's Group D, two round of 16 matches, both semi-finals, and the final. On 29 June 2021, in the round of 16 match at the UEFA Euro 2020 tournament, England won 2–0 against Germany at Wembley, for the national team's first knockout victory against their international rivals Germany at a major international football tournament, since the 1966 World Cup final at the original Wembley Stadium. On 7 July 2021, in the semi-final match at the UEFA Euro 2020 tournament, England won 2–1 against Denmark at Wembley, for the national team's first European Championship final ever, with Italy winning the final on Sunday 11 July 2021 against England. The stadium was also used to host the UEFA Women's Euro 2022, albeit reserved only for the final on 31 July 2022, where England also reached the final, won the game against Germany 2–1 to bring England first ever major European honour. The final was watched by a crowd of 87,192, a record for either the men's or women's European Championship. The stadium will also host matches during UEFA Euro 2028.

 

Rugby league

The Rugby league Challenge Cup Final had been played annually at the old Wembley Stadium since 1929. In 2007, the cup final returned to its traditional home after the rebuilding of Wembley. When Catalans Dragons played St. Helens in the 2007 Challenge Cup Final, they became the first non-English rugby league team to play in the final. The result saw St Helens retain the cup by a score of 30–8 before 84,241 fans. The first rugby league team to win a game at the new Wembley Stadium, were Normanton Freeston. The West Yorkshire secondary school beat Castleford High School in the Year 7 boys Carnegie Champion Schools final, which was played immediately prior to the 2007 Challenge Cup Final. The first official try at the renovated Wembley was scored by James Roby of St Helens, although Luke Metcalfe of Castleford High School scored the first try in the schools game that took place before the 2007 Challenge Cup final.

 

Castleford Academy (formerly Castleford High School) currently hold the record for the most Rugby League appearances at the New Wembley Stadium. On 24 August 2013 their Year 7 Rugby team played RGS High Wycombe in the annual schools curtain-raiser to the Challenge Cup final. This was Castleford Academy's 4th appearance at the stadium since 2007. This puts them joint with Leeds and one appearance ahead of Warrington.

 

In 2015, a second statue was erected outside of Wembley, depicting Rugby League legends Martin Offiah, Alex Murphy, Eric Ashton, Gus Risman and Billy Boston.

 

In 2011, International rugby league returned to Wembley for the first time since 1997 when Wales lost to New Zealand 0–36 and Australia beat host nation England 36–20 in the 2011 Rugby League Four Nations. The semi-finals of the 2013 Rugby League World Cup were played at Wembley Stadium where defending champions New Zealand beat England 20–18, and eventual tournament champions Australia defeated Fiji 64–0. The double header drew 67,575 fans to Wembley, the second highest crowd for an international rugby league game at either the original or the new stadium.

Rugby union

 

Wembley in rugby union formation, with posts up before Saracens played Worcester Warriors in 2010

The first top level rugby union match was a non-cap match between the Barbarians and Australia on 3 December 2008.

 

Between 2009 and 2017, the stadium was used regularly by Saracens for some major Aviva Premiership and Heineken Cup matches. Their Aviva Premiership clash with Harlequins in 2012 was played before a crowd of 83,761, a world record for a rugby union club match. The same two teams set further records of 83,889 spectators in 2014, and 84,068 in 2015.

 

The stadium was used during the 2015 Rugby World Cup, during which it hosted two pool matches:

The 89,019 crowd for the New Zealand versus Argentina game set a new record attendance for a Rugby World Cup game. The Ireland versus Romania match one week later improved this record again to 89,267. Although the 90,000 seat Wembley was the largest stadium used during the 2015 Rugby World Cup, the World Cup Final was held at the 82,000 seat Twickenham Stadium, the traditional home of the tournament's host, England's Rugby Football Union.

 

American football

Wembley has had a long association with American football. A United States Football League game was staged there in 1984,[104] and between 1986 and 1993 the old Wembley Stadium hosted eight National Football League exhibition games featuring 13 different NFL teams. Between the opening of the new Wembley Stadium in 2007 and 2019 Wembley hosted games during the NFL regular season. As a result of this, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell stated in October 2009 that "he expected the NFL will start playing multiple regular-season games in Britain in the next few years, an expansion that could lead to putting a franchise in London."

 

On 28 October 2007, in front of 81,176 fans, the New York Giants defeated the Miami Dolphins by a score of 13–10 in the first NFL regular season game ever to be played in Europe, and the first outside of North America. The first touchdown scored at Wembley was on a run by Giants' quarterback Eli Manning.

 

On 20 January 2012, the league announced that the St. Louis Rams would become a temporary tenant of Wembley Stadium, playing an annual game at the stadium every year from 2012 to 2014; part of the reason the Rams were chosen was that the team is owned by Stan Kroenke, who also is majority shareholder in a local Premier League team, Arsenal. However, the Rams later cancelled their 2013–2014 games, leading to the Jacksonville Jaguars becoming new temporary tenants and agreeing to host games in London from 2013 to 2016.

 

On 16 October 2012, the NFL announced there were to be two NFL regular season games played at Wembley Stadium during the 2013 season. The Pittsburgh Steelers at Minnesota Vikings on 29 September 2013, and the San Francisco 49ers at Jacksonville Jaguars on 27 October 2013. This is an attempt by the NFL to strengthen the NFL fanbase in London and internationally. Future plans to have a permanent NFL team in London have been suggested.

 

Another first was recorded in 2014 as three regular season NFL games were played at Wembley. The Oakland Raiders hosted the Miami Dolphins on 28 September at 6 pm BST, the Atlanta Falcons hosted the Detroit Lions on 26 October at 1:30 pm GMT and the Jacksonville Jaguars hosted the Dallas Cowboys on 9 November at 6 pm GMT. At 9:30 am ET, the Detroit-Atlanta game was the earliest kick off in NFL history and gave fans a unique four game window on this day. In 2015, another first occurred as the first ever divisional match took place at Wembley between the American Football Conference – Eastern Division's Miami Dolphins and New York Jets.

 

On 30 October 2016, for the first time in an NFL game played outside the US, the game carried into overtime and subsequently ended in a tie (another first for both Wembley and a London Game) in a week 8 match between the Washington Redskins and the Cincinnati Bengals. The final score was 27–27.

 

The Jaguars' deal was extended to 2020 and they were to become the first team to host two games in London in 2020. The two Jacksonville Jaguars games which were scheduled to be played in autumn 2020, were cancelled in May 2020 meaning that the Jaguars played consecutive annual games at Wembley only until 2019. A new agreement was reached in 2022 which would see Jacksonville continue to host annual games for three years until 2024. The game between the Jaguars and the Denver Broncos on 30 October 2022 saw a record crowd for an NFL game at Wembley, with 86,215 in attendance.

 

Boxing

On 31 May 2014, Wembley Stadium hosted its first boxing event, featuring the rematch between Carl Froch and George Groves for the WBA and IBF super-middleweight titles. The contest was held in front of a crowd of 80,000 spectators, a British post-war attendance record for a boxing event, surpassing the crowd at the City of Manchester Stadium when it hosted Ricky Hatton vs. Juan Lazcano in May 2008.

 

The WBA (Super) and IBF heavyweight championship fight, Anthony Joshua vs. Wladimir Klitschko, broke the attendance record on 29 April 2017, with an attendance of approximately 90,000. In 2018, Joshua returned to Wembley to face Alexander Povetkin for the WBA (Super), IBF and WBO heavyweight titles.

 

The WBC and The Ring heavyweight title fight, Tyson Fury vs. Dillian Whyte, took place on 23 April 2022 in a sold-out Wembley Stadium with Fury emerging victorious.

 

Professional wrestling

On 5 April 2023, Tony Khan, president of American professional wrestling promotion All Elite Wrestling (AEW), announced that they would stage an event at the stadium on 27 August 2023, titled "All In London at Wembley Stadium", which was the promotion's debut in the United Kingdom as well as the company's first event held outside of North America. This also marks the first professional wrestling event held at the modern Wembley Stadium; WWE's SummerSlam was held at the original Wembley Stadium in 1992. AEW will return to Wembley for All In on 25 August 2024.

 

Music

Besides football, Wembley can be configured to hold other events, particularly major concerts. This was designed at the outset in order to provide funding for the construction of the new stadium.

 

The first concert at the new stadium was given by George Michael on 9 June 2007. Bon Jovi, the last act to perform at the original Wembley, were scheduled to be the first artists to perform at the new Wembley but the late completion of the stadium saw the concerts relocated to the National Bowl and the KC Stadium. Muse became the first band to sell out the new stadium on 16 and 17 June 2007, and released a live DVD of the performance. Other acts to have performed at the stadium are The Stone Roses, Adele, Rihanna, Ed Sheeran, Mötley Crüe, Metallica, U2, The Killers, Green Day, Foo Fighters, Eminem, Madonna, Taylor Swift, Jeff Lynne's ELO, Beyoncé, Spice Girls, Coldplay, Harry Styles, Oasis, Take That, BTS, One Direction and AC/DC. Wembley hosted Take That Present: The Circus Live for four nights in summer 2009.

 

In the first week of July 2007, two large charity concerts were held at the new Wembley stadium, the Concert for Diana, a memorial concert to commemorate ten years since the death of Princess Diana and celebrating what would have been her 46th birthday, and Live Earth, a concert hosted at Wembley as part of the Live Earth Foundation, committed to combatting climate change.

 

Rock band Foo Fighters performed at the stadium in two sold-out shows in June 2008 and were captured on the DVD Live at Wembley Stadium. U2 continued their 360° tour at Wembley Stadium on 14 and 15 August 2009 in front of 164,244 fans.

 

95.8 Capital FM's Summertime Ball, which was previously hosted with 55,000 spectators at the Arsenal Emirates Stadium and slightly fewer in Hyde Park (as Party in the Park), was hosted at Wembley Stadium on 6 June 2010, and was headlined by Rihanna and Usher. The move to Wembley allowed many more fans to watch the annual music event which has previously lasted over 5 hours with more than 15 performers. It has since returned to the Stadium every year since, usually in early June. Rock band Green Day continued their world tour, playing at Wembley on 19 June 2010. The gig was Green Day's biggest audience yet with over 90,000. The Killers performed a song specially written for the Wembley Stadium: The Wembley Song. Brandon Flowers, lead singer for The Killers said "We've written a song for this joyous occasion." And proceeded to sing about some of Wembley's great moments, its history from the Twin Towers to present day arch.

 

Muse returned to Wembley Stadium on 10 and 11 September 2010 as part of their Resistance Tour to a sell-out crowd, having previously played there in June 2007. Madonna played Wembley in 2008 during her Sticky and Sweet Tour, to a sold-out audience of 74,000. The event has surpassed all gross revenue for a single concert at Wembley, grossing nearly US$12 million. Take That played a record-breaking 8 nights at Wembley Stadium in summer 2011 on their Progress Live tour, which has become the fastest and biggest selling tour in UK history.

 

The Olympics meant that no concerts took place at Wembley in summer 2012, with other big shows taking place elsewhere. In summer 2013, there were seven big shows. The first act to perform at the venue was Bruce Springsteen, who played his first show at the new stadium on 15 June. One week later, rock band The Killers performed their biggest headline show at the venue on 22 June. Robbie Williams then performed four solo concerts at the stadium on 29 and 30 June, and on 2 and 5 July after previously performing with Take That at the stadium in 2011. The summer's final show saw former Pink Floyd bass guitarist Roger Waters play at the venue on 14 September as part of The Wall Live tour. In 2014, One Direction played to 246,000 people over three sold-out shows at Wembley on 6–8 June as part of their Where We Are Tour. The following year, on 10–12 July 2015, Ed Sheeran performed three sold-out shows at the venue as part of his world tour. The concert was documented and aired on 16 August 2015 on NBC; the one-hour special Ed Sheeran – Live at Wembley Stadium also included behind-the-scenes footage. Beyoncé performed 2 sold-out shows on her Formation Tour.

 

UK music event.

Adele completed her world tour with two concerts, dubbed "The Finale", at Wembley on 28 and 29 June 2017. The 28 June concert was attended by 98,000 fans, a stadium record for a UK music event. It was originally scheduled to conclude on 2 July 2017, however on 30 June Adele announced via social media that she had regretfully cancelled her final two performances upon medical advice due to vocal injuries. American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift performed two sold-out shows at the stadium on 22 and 23 June 2018. The shows were attended by over 143,000 people and were the last shows for the European leg of her Reputation Stadium Tour.

 

On 1 and 2 June 2019, BTS became the first Asian artists and K-pop group to headline and sell out at Wembley, by selling out two dates for their Love Yourself: Speak Yourself tour. In June 2019 the Spice Girls performed the last three sold out dates of their Spice World – 2019 Tour. The three-night sellout stand was the highest-grossing engagement of the year, winning the Spice Girls the 2019 Billboard Live Music Award for Top Boxscore. June also saw two sold-out shows by Fleetwood Mac's new line-up. Later, on 6 July 2019, The Who performed in the stadium during their Moving On! Tour, 40 years since playing in the old stadium. The popular British band Coldplay played 6 shows from 12 to 20 August during their Music Of The Spheres Tour. In June 2022 Harry Styles, previously of One Direction, performed two sold out nights at the stadium as part of his solo world tour, Love on Tour, following a venue change from The O2 Arena due to high demand. The Covid-19 pandemic had forced the original tour planned for 2020 to be postponed. On 6 August 2022, after two years of postponement because of the COVID-19 pandemic restrictions, Irish pop band Westlife performed for the first time at the stadium with a recorded screenplay at ITV on 20 November 2022. On 3 September 2022, the Foo Fighters played in a sold out Wembley to pay tribute to their late drummer Taylor Hawkins, with guest appearances from Liam Gallagher, Queen, Brian Johnson, Lars Ulrich, Them Crooked Vultures, Paul McCartney and many others. Taylor Swift's return for The Eras Tour on 21, 22, and 23 June 2024 and 15, 16, 17, 19, and 20 August 2024 will make her the first female act in the stadium's history to schedule six, seven, and eight shows on a single tour.

 

Blur headlined two shows at Wembley Stadium on 8 and 9 July 2023 as part of their reunion tour. The Weeknd brought his After Hours til Dawn tour on 18 August 2023 which broke the record for the most tickets sold with the "traditional concert set-up", having 89,179 people.

Auckland city council, The BNZ and Multiplex. Doing for Auckland what "Bomber" Harris did for Dresden.

It would be better if these replacements buildings actually ever served a useful purpose but they don't. Does anyone remember when the MidCity "Alley" had 4 functioning theatres instead of a tagged wasteland ? or the Chase plaza ? It appears that these new exciting developments have a life span of about 15 years and then they become people unfriendly voids. Compare that with the renovation of the Customhouse or the old Ferry buildings.

I'm over 6' tall with piercings and a dress style that at best is casual but generally is 'homeless' and I'm not the sort of person anyone engages in conversation but over the last few days I have been accosted whilst taking photos by a range of people. Shop owners, lawyers, business people and they all tell the same story. Massive bureaucracy, enormous compliance charges and an overzealous parking organization are driving them to the wall.No one comes into the city for shopping as it either involves large parking charges or massive fine from the parking wardens. Poorly implemented public transport exacerbates the situation. St Lukes, Newmarket and other areas are all growing while the CBD dies. Meanwhile the council has "exciting new plans" involving bluestone pavements and new surface level tree pits but is failing to address the fundamental issues of bureaucracy, compliance costs and an unintegrated transport system and a council that cares little for people spaces in the city but bends over backwards to accomodate corporate monoliths.

Proteus’ modular design allows total configuration freedom to ensure a perfect fit for any laboratory, and can provide high sensitivity, high speed, quantitative molecular analysis with the integration of GeneFluidics’ revolutionary electrochemical sensor technology.

 

Proteus is a pipetting robot with a modular platform. Various modules can be placed in the six module locations depending on the needs of the user, ranging from simple fluid handling to complete molecular analysis. Basic modules include standard microtiter plate mounts, vortexing, heating and cooling plate mounts, reagent vial modules, disposable pipette tip racks, and the patented GeneFludics electrochemical sensor module.

Using two 4051 multiplexer ICs I am able to simulate the electric typewriter's keyboard matrix and can control the entire functionality of this machine via the Arduino board.

 

This example shows the result of a tool that tries to recreate an image with the available letters on the daisy wheel. It types several layers of type over each other and also uses half-letter spacing and half-line feeds to cover more paper with carbon.

I believe that this is Ottawa's most recent multiplex theatre. I've never been inside but I intend on visiting there next time there's a major movie out that I want to see just to see what it's like.

I take it through the safety fence

Beautiful rolling sussex countryside....After the multiplex south on the A22, Forest Row is reached where the B2110 is found again. There is a multiplex with the B2026 at Hartfield, the road passes through Groombridge and then ends on the A264. While likely a useful road to get from the A22 at Forest Row to Tunbridge Wells, it again doesn't form a useful route when driven as a whole as the A264 from East Grinstead is more direc

The Angelika Film Center, built in 1989, caters to both mainstream and independent crowds. Occupying the first floor is the overpriced Angelika Café, which is outside the ticket entry point and home to many an auteuristic debate over lattes. The 6 screens are downstairs. Despite poor site lines and the occasional rumbling of the nearby subway line, the Angelika still offers an intimate, charming New York movie experience.

 

The multiplex resides on the ground floor of the 1892 beaux-arts Cable Building, at 611-621 Broadway, which was designed by McKim, Mead and White on the site of St. Thomas Church, which burned down in 1851, was rebuilt and then demolished around 1890. It was originally designed to be the power plant for the Broadway Cable Traction Company, who operated the cable car line on Broadway. It housed four 1,000 Horse Power Corliss steam engines and eighteen high pressure Heine boilers, all since destroyed, that ower 32-foot diameter driving drums for the cables under the street for the line.

 

John Jacob Astor was put to rest in the Astor family crypt here in 1848, with Washington Irving as an honorary pallbearer. He was relocated in 1851 to Trinity Church Cemetery at 155th Street. The building, which also houses a Crate and Barrell among numerous offices, is a 9-story, 129-foot tall structure.

Looking over Brayford Pool towards the Odeon Cinema Complex, in Lincoln, Lincolnshire.

 

It is made up of a nine-screen multiplex cinema with associated catering and retail outlets. Building work commenced in July 2000 after the demolition of the former Kwiksave/Sainsburys Supermarket. A pile-driven structure of steel frame with concrete, brick and sheeting, with blue neon external strip lighting. Opened October 2001. The units were gradually fitted out to include Bar Med, Lloyds No. 1 and Ask restaurant on Brayford Wharf North; Thai One On, (Thai Sabai May 2011), Café Bollywood, Planet Masala and Wrap and Run on Wigford Way West in 2004; Dixey Chicken in February 2005, later Chicken Cottage. Bar Med replaced by Slug and Lettuce in late 2004, followed by So Luxe restaurant, closed 2009; 20 June 2011 Zizzi Italian restaurant.

 

The Brayford Pool is a natural lake formed from a widening of the River Witham in the centre of the city of Lincoln. It was used as a port by the Romans who connected it to the River Trent by constructing the Foss Dyke Canal and the area has a long industrial heritage.

 

The Pool has been the focus of Lincoln's urban regeneration since the early 1990s. It is now overlooked by bars, restaurants, a cinema and, most significantly, the University of Lincoln. The only reminder of the past is the Royal William public house, a traditional pub housed inside a listed building. The Pool is used as a marina by houseboats and pleasure craft, as well as by anglers and kayakers.

 

The Brayford Pool has long been a favourite place for mute swans. They breed upstream on the River Witham, away from the hustle and bustle of the city, but are attracted down to the Brayford Pool area by food provided by passers-by. The number of swans usually peaks in the autumn and can be anything up to 130 birds.

 

Mute swans are one of the UK's largest birds and they can grow up to about 1.5m high. Although by definition the mute swans are usually silent, they do make a loud hissing noise when they are angry and young swans make a high pitched whistling noise.

 

A number of mallard ducks can be found in the area as well as the less commonly known Muscovy ducks, native to Central and South America but brought to Europe by explorers in the 16th Century. The strange looking ducks have been immortalized to a degree with a ground floor suite named after them in the University’s Main Admin Building.

 

Other birds you might see around the Brayford include the pied wagtail, kingfishers, mallards, moorhens, coots and herons. There are at least five different types of dragonfly, whilst the fish in the Brayford include roach, common bream, tench and pike. For budding anglers, the Lincoln and District Angling Association organise fishing in the Brayford Pool and the surrounding waterways.

 

Plants that can be found along River Witham include common species such as reed sweet grass, branched bur-reed and red mace, the much rarer arrowhead and flowering rush along with great water dock, skull cap and wild celery. A common tree along the river bank is the Alder.

 

Multiplexing the segments in a 7-Segment LED display with a 74HC595 shift register and 3 wires from an Arduino.

 

Yes, this is not necessarily the best way to make a 7-Segment display count, but it was more of an academic challenge to see how it could be done. For details of this project please visit my blog.

IChiOne is the longest running drum & bass event with its roots n Amsterdam soil and has been building up a loyal international & national fan base over the last decade. IChiOne is One of the unique pillars of the drum and bass scene, known for its strong ethos, but also for its open mindedness and experimental programming.

 

Many artists have made their first Amsterdam appearance during IChiOne. Take, for example artists, including Breakage, Ben UFO, Instra: mental, Ramadanman and Shackleton and an abundance of other artists.

 

Saturday, May the 24th, 2014 IChiOne touches down at Toren to celebrate its 10 year anniversary. Lovers of deep bass and complex rhythms heed the call for this 10th year anniversary, as IChiOne programmed an amazing line up.

 

This is also the penultimate Saturday in the existence of Toren , the Amsterdam underground club of the moment, will be closing its doors for good the 1st of june .

 

IChiOne parties are blessed with its tranquil atmosphere and amazingly welcoming, yet earthy hospitality, so feel welcome to be a part of this once in a lifetime experience.

 

Although IChiOne prefers the underground and resides in the shadows, during this event IChiOne will make the night as bright as day.

 

IChiOne shines like the sun.

Arc Multiplex Cinema, Beeston - the main foyer. Opened in May 2021, delayed by the Covid pandemic, and designed by Leonard Design Architects as part of a larger project for Beeston Town Centre which will deliver more retail and apartments on the adjoining site. The Arc has 8 screens, all with luxury reclining seats, and two 'Hypersense' Dolby Atmos screens. The screens seat between 45 and 157 patrons, and the total capacity is just over 700. There is a small entry hall at street level, with stairs and a lift to the first floor foyer and auditoria.

I love the design of this 80s futuristic building.

 

'The front part of the building has a distinctive mirrored crystal ziggurat shape, framed by external steel beams at each corner, joined at the apex. Originally it had red neon lights connecting the apexes at each side, so that it looked like a pyramid at night.'

 

This was the UK's first multiplex cinema and was open from 1985-2015. Refused listed status by Historic England on the grounds that it looked like 'a large industrial shed unit'. I would disagree with them there.

 

It's a little off topic from my usual uploads, but I do enjoy modern history, and it was worth seeing this before it gets torn down.

One of a handful of concurrencies of three-digit highways in Iowa is US 169 and IA 175, which run together for four miles east of Harcourt.

 

Other multiplexes of three-digit highways in Iowa are the short "wrong-way" multiplex of IA 141 and IA 175 in Mapleton, the two multiplexes of I-380 and US 218 (in Waterloo and from Cedar Rapids to I-80), US 218 and IA 163 in Mount Pleasant, and the "wrong-way" concurrency of US 151 and US 218 in Cedar Rapids.

A compelling alternative to optical detection. GeneFluidics' novel electrochemical detection platform enables the achievement of ultra-high sensitivities without target amplification by combining the established technologies of hybridization and antigen/antibody interactions with well characterized electrochemical measurement techniques.
