The Eden Project is a visitor attraction in Cornwall, England. Inside the two biomes are plants that are collected from many diverse climates and environments. The project is located in a reclaimed Kaolinite pit, located 2 km (1.2 mi) from the town of St Blazey and 5 km (3 mi) from the larger town of St Austell, Cornwall.
The complex is dominated by two huge enclosures consisting of adjoining omes that house thousands of plant species, and each enclosure emulates a natural biome. The biomes consist of hundreds of hexagonal and pentagonal, inflated, plastic cells supported by steel frames. The largest of the two biomes simulates a Rainforest environment and the second, a Mediterranean environment. The attraction also has an outside botanical garden which is home to many plants and wildlife native to Cornwall and the UK in general; it also has many plants that provide an important and interesting backstory, for example, those with a prehistoric heritage.
By the end of the century, sub-alpine meadows could shrink up to 27 percent at Mount Rainier National Park and disappear entirely at North Cascades National Park. To understand the effects of climate change on pollinators and protect our sub-alpine meadows, the Cascades Butterfly Project will be monitoring three sites in North Cascades National Park, two in the Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest, and four in Mount Rainier National Park.

Manhattan Project National Historical Park is America's longest national park unit, with three scattered units in Oak Ridge (Tennessee), Los Alamos (New Mexico), and Hanford (Washington).
The previous record was held by Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park, with three sites in and around Skagway (Alaska) and a fourth in Seattle (Washington).
project runway 6 is back — already! Sure, Season 6, the first season to air on Lifetime, just ended with strong ratings, but the network has announced the 16 designers who will compete on the show's seventh season.

The designers range in age from 21 to 47 and are from all over the U.S. and from countries including China, the Philippines and the Dominican Republic. Interestingly, none of the contestants are from New York or Los Angeles, a Project Runway first.
The new season of Runway returns to New York City, where the designers will eat, sleep and breathe fashion in the Parsons workroom. Heidi Klum will host, Tim Gunn returns as the contestants' mentor, and Klum, Michael Kors and Nina Garcia will sit on the judging panel. The whole family back together again!

A small project consisting of setting up a shoot with random passersby and getting them to pull a face.
All participants where informed of the project and asked if they wanted to be a part. To see the rest of the project you can visit cambrils.tumblr.com/

Seen in a driveway in Germantown, WI. Not the place you'd expect to find a heap like this, meaning it's a project for some middle aged guy who needs to feel cool again.

Had to go to Union City to drop someone off at an event and while waiting for them to finish, I drove over to Hayward to check out more of the abandonment there.
This time I stopped at two dead dealerships along busy Mission Blvd. To get some of these shots, I entered the property through a hole someone cut in the fence.
First steps outside! Been working in the garden today and with the weather being lovely, we decided it was a good time to introduce Rosie to the back garden. She's had a ball today! She is the fastest tortoise in St Helens! Turn your back on her for one minute and she is off!
Here's the bedroom fort project. It's near completion. We had to wait another week for the carpet to come back from being bordered. Last week when I picked it up we found they had cut and bordered it to 3x9 instead of 3x6. We have to wait at least another week for the fix. Many places send projects like that out to a sub-contractor who only picks up and drops off once a week.

Slightly edited shot of the preparations for 'Project Space Invader'. Taken with my HTC Desire mobile phone.
Earlier this week I've started 'Project Space Invader', made possible by some spare time I've had at work, and I am proud and happy to report that the Production-stage has been finalized, and I am now the excited owner of a Post-it's, paper-based (the Environment!), funky-wicked, mega-sized, yellow Space Invader, that I intend to hang up all over the best city in the world, shoot it, and then set it free somewhere, so that the next person who likes it, can have some fun with my little Alien :)
To be continued...
One of the many love locks on a bridge on the Wellington waterfront. I snapped this when looking for the clues to a geocache puzzle GC60VP0. I now have all but one of the answers and I think I can find the final and sign the log book.

Greyfriars Kirk
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Greyfriars Kirk, Edinburgh)
Greyfriars Kirk, today Greyfriars Tolbooth & Highland Kirk, is a parish kirk (church) of the Church of Scotland in central Edinburgh, Scotland. Its name reflects a pre-Reformation association with the Franciscan order (the Grey Friars).
It is one of the oldest surviving buildings built outside the Old Town of Edinburgh, having been begun in 1602 and completed c. 1620. It sits to the south of the Grassmarket, adjoining George Heriot's School (founded in 1628).
Greyfriars Kirk has an important place in the history of the Scottish Covenanters. In 1638 the National Covenant was presented and signed in front of the pulpit. In 1679, some 1200 Covenanters were imprisoned in the Kirkyard pending trial.
In the mid 19th century, the Rev Robert Lee, then minister of Old Greyfriars led a movement to reform worship, introducing the first post-Reformation stained glass windows in a Presbyterian church in Scotland, and also one of the first organs. He received considerable criticism at the time, but most of his proposals were subsequently widely accepted in the Church of Scotland.
For many years, Greyfriars Kirk was divided into two places of worship — Old Greyfriars and New Greyfriars. These two congregations united in 1929 and the historic church building was subsequently extensively restored. The interior dividing wall between the two former separate sanctuaries was removed as part of these renovations, completed in 1938.
Given the depopulation of Edinburgh's Old Town in the early part of the 20th century, many neighbouring church buildings were closed and their congregations united with Greyfriars, including the New North Church and Lady Yester's Church. In 1979 the congregation united with the former Highland Tolbooth St John's Church (this building on the Royal Mile is now used as "The Hub", the headquarters of the Edinburgh International Festival society). The post-1979 united congregation continues to use Greyfriars Kirk, with Sunday services in English at 11am and in Scottish Gaelic at 12.30pm. (This is the only Church of Scotland congregation in the east of Scotland with regular services in Gaelic). The current minister (since 2003) is the Reverend Dr Richard Frazer.
Greyfriars Tolbooth & Highland Kirk is part of a Local Ecumenical Partnership (LEP) with St Columba's-by-the-Castle (Scottish Episcopal Church) and Augustine United Church (United Reformed Church).
Four ministers and one elder of Greyfriars Kirk have been Moderators of the General Assembly:
* George Kay, 1759
* William Robertson, 1763
* Robert Henry, 1774
* James Ogilvie, 1918
* Alison Elliot, 2004
