Dancing Rabbit is located in a county that has no building codes, which gives members a great deal of leeway in deciding what to build. They do have an environmental covenant that disallows lumber, except for reclaimed lumber and locally harvested wood. Many structures utilize clay taken right out of the ground, often combined with hay bale construction.
In this particular photo, there's a converted bus dwelling in the foreground (to the left), a single family home in the middle, and a 6 bedroom hay bale building in the background.

One of two maritime structures built by the North Western Railway at Morecambe, Stone Jetty is today an integral part of the local coastal protection works. The single storey building on the end of the jetty was an early railway station.
Stone Jetty can be found on Morecambe's Promenade, opposite the later Midland Hotel, and was originally built for the 'Little' North Western Railway Company as a wharf and rail terminal for both passenger and cargo transport. Richard Smallman (1816-1873) was the railway's engineer from April 1851 to March 1858.
An earlier wooden pier, also constructed by the railway company, once stood just east of Stone Jetty. Both had rail lines on them. The wooden pier dated from 1850 was was constructed under the railway's then engineer, John Watson. It has since been demolished.
The wall of Stone Jetty are vertical and constructed of closely-fitting sandstone blocks. The walls reach 10m above the sand at the seaward end. The overall length of the jetty is 250m. Its average width along the neck is 25m and at the head, 40m, where there is a small lighthouse of similar stone construction, and the former station, now a tearoom.
Chambers were incorporated into the body of the jetty to enable it to be used for loading and unloading at various states of the tide — which at Morecambe has a high range of over 10m, with the possibility of extreme storm surges of 2-3m.
A stretch of the western face of the jetty, some 180m long, is protected by rock armour. This was replenished after storm damage in 1988. During the late 1990s, the surface of the deck was re-laid in patterned coloured concrete and new seating, lamp standards and railings installed.

struts were made by wrapping newspaper around dowels. for some struts, the dowel was left inside the rolled up newspaper.
Ever wonder what goes on under the shiny exterior of an anthropomorphic tow truck? Me too. Now you'll understand all the major internal structures of a North American tow truck, including where exactly the machine ends and the flesh begins.

It's great conversation starter and a nice introduction to cyborgs for children.
This amazing glass couture piece Structures of Self was recently modeled by one of the collaborating artists during the new Beakerhead festival of science, art and engineering. The idea to collaborate on an a photoshoot that paired the alien/bug like garment with the 40 foot RayGun Gothic Rocketship during the setting sun, made for some pretty creative images

Sleeping Beauty Castle is the fairy tale structure castle at the center of Disneyland Park and Hong Kong Disneyland. It is based on the late-19th century Neuschwanstein Castle in Bavaria, Germany, with some French inspirations (especially Notre Dame de Paris and the Hospices de Beaune).
Opened July 17, 1955, the castle is the oldest of all Disney castles. Its primary inspiration was the Château d'Ussé in France. Though it reaches a height of only 77 feet (23 m), it was designed to appear taller through a process known as forced perspective; design elements are larger at the foundation and smaller at the turrets. The castle initially featured an empty upper level that was never intended to house an attraction, but Walt Disney was not satisfied with what he viewed as wasted space, and challenged his Imagineers to find some use for the space.
The Disney family coat of arms hangs above the archway to the castle. It is composed of three lions passant in pale.

After some fiddling i now manage to store data structurally in Liferay's structures, and lift it to the website using Velocity templates.

News obtained from the Northwest Herald: McHENRY – A structure fire at the Polish Legion of American Veterans on 1304 Park St. in McHenry took roughly two and a half hours to extinguish Sunday afternoon, but no one was injured during the annual Mother's Day brunch.
McHenry Township Fire Battalion Chief Joe Krueger said firefighters received a call at 11:41 a.m. for the fire, which was called in while members of the post were cooking for a Mother's Day brunch. Krueger said a Level 3 MABAS box alert was called, bringing assistance from multiple departments in Lake and McHenry counties.
With heavy smoke coming through the roof, McHenry Township Fire Chief Tony Huemann said the first wave of firefighters made an aggressive move and ran hoses inside the building before Krueger deemed the situation too dangerous and pulled out the firefighters. Responders then fought the blaze defensively from the outside of the building, Huemann said.
No civilians or firefighters were injured and the fire was contained to the single building. Some emergency crews began to leave the scene at 3 p.m. The building has "substantial" damage, Krueger said, with most of the back and back roof completely destroyed.
Dan Lisi, first vice commander of Polish Legion of American Veterans Post 188, said he and other members were cooking a Mother's Day brunch at the same time a roofing company was doing work on the building when a breaker popped around 11:30 a.m.
Other breakers started popping and the fire started, Lisi said. He said 70 people were inside the hall, and everybody exited safely and without injury.
Krueger said the cause of the fire is still under investigation. Representatives from the roofing company on scene declined to comment.
Lisi said the post has 144 members and has been in the building since 1980.
Dating back to 7th Century A.D., Durga (fort) temple dedicated to Lord Vishnu is one of the 70 temples located in Aihole. Standing on a high platform, apsidal on plan, carrying a peripheral row of columns on its edge that surround the inner sanctum with sloping roof and ornate columns, this temple's architecture is quite different compared to other temples built by Chalukyas.
Aihole is one of the most visited tourist places in Karnataka and is located 450 km north of Bangalore and 150 km north east of Hubli in Bagalkot district of Karnataka.

Crews gossip by the shed on Peter Cunningham's 7mm (1:43 - British O) layout, which represents a Great Eastern Railway line in the 1910s-1920s time frame. The models are a mix of kit and scratchbuilt.
Peter believes the rewards of such projects, properly explained, will encourage more adults in their 30s and 40s to take up the hobby - and that this is a better strategy than trying to turn children into model railway enthusiasts.
Peter is our guest on Episode 11 of The Model Railway Show.
After erecting the first hotels and churches country towns looked to education facilities. In Laura a school opened in 1874 in a small church before the first state school was built in 1877. Additional classrooms were added to the 1877 building in 1883. More buildings have opened since the 1950s. In the 1870s churches were often built of pine and pug with thatched rooves and they were demolished within a couple of decades. The Wesleyan Methodists built the first church in Laura in 1873 opposite the location of the current school. They replaced this structure with their grand stone church in the Main Street in 1888. It is still in use in the Main Street but it is now Redeemer Lutheran Church. The Lutherans purchased this building in the year 2000. The Lutherans also purchased the Primitive Methodist Church in Samuel Street in Laura which was built in 1876. They bought it in 1904, demolished it in 1908 and opened their Easter Lutheran Church on the site in 1909. The Baptist congregation in Laura was strong and they built their church in 1875 and it is still in use by the Baptists. The Catholics built an early church in 1877 with a nearby convent at the same time on land on the outskirts of Laura which was donated by a local farmer Mr Rollison. Both were demolished in 1929 to make way for the current fine Catholic Church. The Anglicans built a church in Laura in 1875 and because Herbert Bristow Hughes of Booyoolee and his family worshiped there he donated funds for the addition of the chancel. The chancel was added in 1883 to the design of Port Pirie architect William Mallyon.
