The tower acts as a support structure for an antenna. Originally intended for television broadcasting, radio antennas were installed in 1961 and the tower is now used to broadcast both signals for Japanese media outlets such as NHK, TBS and Fuji TV. Japan's planned switch from analog to digital for all television broadcasting by July 2011 is problematic, however. Tokyo Tower's current height is not high enough to adequately support complete terrestrial digital broadcasting to the area. A taller digital broadcasting tower known as Tokyo Sky Tree is currently planned to open in 2012.
These are two of my most prized photos, though that's a bit problematic as these are the ONLY prints I have of each, and I think both are not-great-quality scans. Anyhow, the photo on the left is my now-husband and me in August 1994, when we first met. I was 15 and he was 20. See, my sister was stationed in Illinois with the Navy, and she flew me out to Chicago to spend some time with her. One of her best friends at the time was this guy named Kurt -- who ultimately became my husband. This is one of the very few photos I have of him with hair -- and you can see my natural color too. The photo on the right was taken about three months after we started dating five years later, when I was 20 and he was 25. I was a student at the College of William and Mary, while he was stationed at the shipyard in Portsmouth, about an hour south of Williamsburg. He came up to be my date at the King & Queen Ball in April 2000. This is one of our first photos together. Now we've been married over ten years, together for twelve, and we have two awesome daughters. I think I really hit the jackpot when I married my husband.
An allochtonous species, problematic for the conservation of the native Emys orbicularis, fortunately only rarely it sucessfully reproduces in the Padan Plain.
This set is from our excursion into what is called "Cave of the Winds"--though there is no cave. If I'm remembering right there used to be, but at some point in the past the actual cave part collapsed--somebody correct me if I have that wrong.
Anyway you are issued a rain poncho and "souvenir sandals"--because you're about to get wet! Then you go on this walkway which puts you closer and closer to the roaring water till you're nearly on top of and right next to the torrent, with the wind blowing spray at you, and the roar of the water overwhelming.
It's a stunning, powerful, fantastic experience, and if you ever make it to Niagra, or have been but not had this experience, you should absolutely do this! At the point where you're closest to the roar and getting quite wet (but protected by your handy poncho) everybody was screaming and laughing, much as in a roller coaster ride, where you hear screaming and then realize it's you! It was an absolutely mystical experience for me, I love water in all it's forms but especially waterfalls, and will do my best to get as close to that awesome power as I can. This was the most awesome experience. I only wish it had not been such a busy weekend, if we ever go back I want to go just to this, not as part of a tour group, so I can stay for hours and just drink in the power.
Oh, and for those who don't want to get QUITE that up close and personal, you don't have to do the final approach, there are still fantastic views to be had where you don't get quite as close or as wet, as you can see from most of these pics. When you get to that final point, taking pictures is quite problematic if you don't want to risk getting your camera wet! I'll post a few of those pics in another set later, shots snuck when the wind shifted and I thought I dared bring the camera out from under my poncho for a few seconds! :-)

Abstract -
The Via della Conciliazione is the thoroughfare that leads to St. Peter's basilica in Rome. Designed under the Fascist regime in 1936 by Marcello Piacentini and Attilio Spaccarelli, it is often dismissed as a reprehensible intervention in a historic site. However, it managed to carry out the long-sought restructuring of the Vatican Borgo area; succeeded in framing St. Peter's, with its problematic facade, in a new vista; made concrete the union of church and state authorized by the Lateran Pact, imperative to Mussolini's political agenda; and exemplifies strategies of urban planning widely used in Fascist Rome."

Contenuto: Il volume propone una selezione di voci che concorrono a tratteggiare la vicenda plurisecolare del palazzo dei Convertendi, dalla sua prima configurazione, plasmata inglobando l'edificio che fu la casa di Raffaello fino alla morte, ripercorrendo poi la demolizione e ricostruzione dell'edificio alla fine degli anni Trenta del Novecento, fino al restauro attuale, condotto con scrupolo scientifico e attenzione filologica a cura dell'Amministrazione proprietaria. Grazie ai diversi punti di vista presentati si approfondiscono le mutazioni di un ambito urbano che riflettono i più ampi avvenimenti storico-politici che hanno visto la nascita dello Stato della Città del Vaticano e si ricostruiscono i profili delle istituzioni che, nei secoli, hanno dimorato nel palazzo. Il volume apre nuove prospettive di studio e ricerca offrendo, al contempo, spunti di riflessione sul valore dell'architettura come testimone di memorie storiche del nostro passato antico e recente.

Progettato e rinviato a più riprese dai pontefici già a partire dal XVII secolo, l'abbattimento della "spina di borgo" fu realizzato negli anni Trenta del Novecento, concordemente approvato dal governo italiano di Mussolini e da papa Pio XI. Il clima di conciliazione tra Stato italiano e Santa Sede, esito della firma di Patti lateranensi del febbraio 1929, dette il nome alla grande strada che risultò dallo sventramento progettato da Attilio Spaccarelli e Marcello Piacentini. L'intervento consistette non soltanto nell'abbattimento della "spina", ma anche in un sostanzioso rimaneggiamento di molti degli edifici dell'area. I lavori iniziarono nell'ottobre del 1936. Via della Conciliazione fu poi perfezionata nel secondo dopoguerra anche in vista dell'anno santo del 1950.

The Seven Bridges of Königsberg is a historically notable problem in mathematics. Its negative resolution by Leonhard Euler in 1735 laid the foundations of graph theory and prefigured the idea of topology.
The city of Königsberg in Prussia (now Kaliningrad, Russia) was set on both sides of the Pregel River, and included two large islands which were connected to each other and the mainland by seven bridges.
The problem was to find a walk through the city that would cross each bridge once and only once. The islands could not be reached by any route other than the bridges, and every bridge must have been crossed completely every time; one could not walk halfway onto the bridge and then turn around and later cross the other half from the other side. The walk need not start and end at the same spot. Euler proved that the problem has no solution. There could be no non-retracing the bridges. The difficulty was the development of a technique of analysis and of subsequent tests that established this assertion with mathematical rigor.
After a chaotic and problematic week with work I decided to have saturday off.
Leaving the hotel early in Delft I stepped on a train, off the train and onto another and found myself in Alkmaar. When I last visited in was under ice and snow.
In 2015 the station was expanded to cope with traffic growth (Alkmaar is an expansion city within the national plan). Between 2014 and 2016 the north side of the station area was altered significantly. A 3,000 space multi-level bike park was added. A new bridge utilising large expanses of glass plate has been built over the tracks and it is from this that I took these photos helped by a wonderfully clear spring sky. The bridge gives great views of the Victorian parts of the town and the newer parts.
Alkmaar Station opened on 20 December 1865 when the railway opened between Alkmaar and Den Helder. This was the second railway opened by the Hollandsche IJzeren Spoorweg-Maatschappij after the Amsterdam–Rotterdam railway. The line through Alkmaar was on the Staatslijn K railway, built by the Dutch state between 1865 and 1878, designed by Karel Hendrik van Brederode.

Most people know about the current lawsuit between the NFL and former players regarding the
league’s problematic concussion rate potentially leading to extreme changes in the
memory/capacity of the brain. A concussion occurs when a person receives a blow to the head,
causing damage to the brain cells. The cells usually take two weeks to heal, but continuing to be
active or suffering another head injury can lead to permanent damage. We wanted to see if there
was a similar trend in high school football. The purpose of our study was to determine whether the
number of concussions suffered by a player has a significant impact on their GPA. We
hypothesized that if a player suffers a single concussion, then they are more likely to have a lower
GPA than a player who has not suffered a concussion. We surveyed high school football players
(N=35) on their number of diagnosed concussions and their current high school GPA. Our
hypothesis was supported; individuals who suffered a single concussion had a significantly lower
GPA. Further, the data showed an additive effect; the more concussions athletes suffer, the lower
their GPA. It’s possible these results are due to the physiological effects of concussions or due to
the time spent out of class in recovery. We also discuss the player positions that have the highest
concussion rate, which means they may require additional protection. Additionally, we investigate
the potential use cognitive tests pre- and post-football seasons to monitor the effects of concussions
over time. Our study highlights the ease at which high schools could monitor the effects of
concussions on their athletes. It is our hope that this study can push research further and make high
school football safer.
Another disadvantage of life in the valleys - problematical television reception due to the terrain. These satellite dishes are presumably mounted here as there is no clear line of sight from the houses, lower in the steep sided valley. They also have aerials on the houses, but I'm not sure what their reception is like.
Newchurch is in the middle of a very narrow lane, which barely widens in the village, and so parking here is problematic. I managed to get a pace on the road, though I do think there is a small car park beside the church, but driving along the pavement didn't seem right to me.
All Saints sits on the edge of a cliff, and the road out of the village falls away beside it, making it a very dramatic location.
The tower, half clapboard and half soft sandy-coloured stone looks in poor repair. The clapboard, anyway. And entrance to the church is through the tower with the bellringing ropes hanging overhead.
Inside, it is a well kept church, some nice 19th century glass, a rose window in the west wall, but too high for me to get a good shot. The lectern is a fine golden Pelican in her Piety, one of the best I have seen, and hanging in the rood loft stairs, now leading nowhere, is a fine brass lamp.
As I left just before four, the church was locked, and my crawling for the day was done, so I repaired to the Pointer Inn next door for a fine pint of Hophead.
---------------------------------------------
The church celebrated its 900th anniversary in 1987 and is a fine example of a Norman Church with some remaining evidence of its pre-Norman origins.
It is one of only three English churches with an ancient sanctuary door still in place (Durham and Westminster are the other two). Over the South door there is the crest of William III (of Orange) dated 1700 with the face of the Lion Rampant being an image of King Willliam.
The Dillington Mortuary Chapel has a number tombs whose covering slabs have unusually well preserved and finely engraved crests and lettering
The following is extracted from the Quinquennial Report published in October 2011 by the Church Architect, Mr Ian G Smith.
Standing prominently at the north end of Newchurch village, All Saints Church is visible from many points in the central belt of the Island; being cruciform in plan, with a south porch and tower it dominates the Arreton Valley.
One of six Churches given by William FitzOsbern to Lyra Abbey in Normandy, it was given to the See of Bristol by Henry VIII; All Saints has throughout its life had many additions, in the 15th, 16th and 17th centuries; the Victorian restoration of 1883, by AR Barker, remodelled part of the interior.
The original Church is still quite easily identifiable in the Nave, North and South Aisles, the crossing and the north wall of the Chancel, with the later extensions of the South Transept and the Chancel evident in the treatment of the windows which are wider and of three light style.
Constructed of random stone under a steeply pitched and tiled roof, the modest exterior is off set by the surprisingly grand interior; with a soaring timber-clad Nave roof, and massive stone columns with octagonal piers; with double chamfered arches progressing to the crossing and the Chancel.
The square tower over the stone rendered South Porch, being of timber weather-boarding (around 1800) is unusual on the Island, housing the six bell peal, four of which were founded in 1810, the other two are of 16th and 17th century vintage.
Major benefactors of the Church were the Dillington family who have laid 8 vaults in the north transept and also in the south transept; and of historical interest within the Church are the oak pulpit of 1725, the oak door from the Porch, the Pelican Lectern (l7thC), the wall tablets, the stained glass east window by Kempe (1909), the Creed and Commandments boards in cusped Gothic frames on the west wall; and the panel over the south door with the royal arms of William III, and dated 1700.

High Street (East side) -Dillington Sundial in All Saints Churchyard — listed Grade II
Ref: SZS8NE
1352-0/1/145
Sundial, 1678 by Robert Marks of London, Baluster shaped stone base to sundial, about 1.000mm in height on plinth of three square stone steps. The sundial is missing, the sundial originally stood on the bowling green at Knighton Gorges, but following the demolition of the great house, Squire Bisset gave it to the parish in 1826, when it was erected in the Churchyard, historical interest as one of the early relics of Knighton Gorges.
I don't know what the covered zipper end popped out, but I suspect it's related to the lining stitching coming undone.
