Built in 1839, 1851, and 1864, this Greek Revival-style building was designed by Henry Singleton, and was later renovated by Robert S. Mitchell and William Rumbold, adding several of the building’s wings and present features. The oldest section of the courthouse is the foundation of the east wing, which extends towards the Mississippi River, and is the only remaining portion of the 1816-1828 Federal-style courthouse that stood on the same site, which was designed by the firm Laveille and Morton, and was incorporated into the larger present courthouse structure in 1839, before being removed and replaced with the present east wing during the 1851 renovation. The 1839 portion of the building, designed by Henry Singleton, consists of the north, south, and west wings, which once surrounded a rotunda with a low dome, much like the original design of the United States Capitol. In 1851, under the direction of architect Robert S. Mitchell, the east wing was removed and replaced with the present structure, with the new east wing better matching the 1839 wings. In 1861-1864, under the direction of architect William Rumbold, a cast iron dome, based on St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome, and similar to the dome on the United States Capitol, was added to the center of the building, at which time the building took on its present form. Upon the addition of the dome, the courthouse was the tallest building in St. Louis and Missouri until 1896, when St. Louis Union Station was constructed. In addition to its architectural history, in the 1850s, the courthouse was where the Dred Scott Case was heard, prior to the case being brought before the US Supreme Court, and slave auctions were regularly held inside the Probate Courts chambers in the building’s east wing, where slaves owned by deceased slaveholders without a hard will, and slaveowners who had declared bankruptcy, were sold. This practice ended in 1861. The building continued to serve as the St. Louis County Courthouse until St. Louis City split from St. Louis County in 1877, and subsequently served as the St. Louis City Courthouse until 1930, when the present City Courts building was completed seven blocks to the west.
The building features a stone exterior with doric pilasters, two-story porticoes on the north, east, and west wings with fluted doric columns and pediments, gabled roofs with pediments, architraves with triglyphs and recessed panels, six-over-six double-hung windows, a central dome on an octagonal base with engaged doric columns and arched windows on the lower portion of the drum, a cornice below oxeye windows and a copper-clad dome above, a lantern with a decorative balustrade at the base, arched bays, and doric columns, with a domed roof and flagpole at the top. Inside, the building features many well-preserved historic spaces that operate as a museum, including a rotunda with murals by artist Karl Ferdinand Wimar, fluted corinthian pilasters with gilded capitals, doric, ionic, and corinthian columns, historic chandeliers, arced staircases, coffered ceilings, marble floors, wooden furniture, wooden paneled doors, and wooden paneling.
The building is part of the Jefferson National Expansion Memorial, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1966. Since the mid-20th Century, the building has functioned as a museum, interpreting the history of the building and the surrounding city, which became part of the Jefferson National Expansion Memorial in 1940, and Gateway Arch National Park, upon re-designation of the national memorial in 2018. As of 2023, the courthouse is undergoing an extensive renovation, which will make the building accessible to those with physical disabilities and limitations, replace building systems, modernize National Park Service office spaces in the building, update galleries and exhibits, and restore the historic features of the building.

CAL FIRE/Placer County Fire Department assisted Placer Hills Fire Protection District with a structure fire on Ponderosa Lane Auburn February 2023.
Under construction in North Philly. When finished, this structure will be the home of the Community Ecology Center. This structure is being built primarily of found materials... Basically, the community is clearing the lot and building a useful structure from the trash. This looks like a win-win to me.
Taken and post-processed entirely with my Android phone.
So these are some rocks stacked on top of each other, I think there a little weird and I'm surprised no ones tried to knock them over
This is a photograph from the eight annual Donadea 50KM Ultramarathon which was held in Donadea Forest, Donadea, Naas, Co. Kildare, Ireland on Saturday 11th February 2017 at 10:00. The race was also an International Association of Ultrarunners Silver Label Event and the Athletics Association of Ireland (AAI) National 50KM Championships. The race completes 10 loops of a very well known 5KM trail around the circumference of the forest. Most of this trail is in very good condition with good conditions underfoot for the entire 5KM stretch. The start-finish area is located close to the coffee shop area in the center of the park beside the now ruined and abandoned Donadea Castle. This year, like all previous events, was a fantastic event with great support around the course for the athletes. However the structure of the course with the repeated loops makes a great atmosphere for the runners themselves with great camaraderie being shown amongst all of the competitors. This is one of the most popular 50KM races in Ireland. A garmin GPS link is available here connect.garmin.com/activity/70206204
About 180 people finished the race in the time limit of 5 hours. The big factor in today's race was the bitter cold weather. While the weather was dry it was very cold with the air temperature struggling to reach more than 3 or 4 degrees celsius. But the wind chill made it feel much much colder. However the cold weather of the past number of days meant that the track all around the 5KM loop was very dry and firm underfoot.
We have a larget set of photographs on the following Flickr link: www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/albums/72157680223659425
Where is Donadea?. Donadea Forest Park is situated in rural north Kildare and is approximately 640 acres in size. The amenities at the forest include good walking trails, a diversity of natural habitats, a walled stream, a large natural lake, and the ruins of Donadea castle. The Park is a designated National Heritage Area. The basic designation for wildlife is the Natural Heritage Area (NHA). This is an area considered important for the habitats present or which holds species of plants and animals whose habitat needs protection. Here is a stunning 4K Aerial Video of Donadea Castle & Lake on YouTube www.youtube.com/watch?sns=fb&v=BG7LmBo2WlU

Above all what Creative Commons aims to do is to encourage creative sharing. See some examples of Creative Commons photographs on Flickr: www.flickr.com/creativecommons/
I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?
As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:
►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera
►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set
►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone
►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!
You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.
Don't like your photograph here?
That's OK! We understand!
If, for any reason, you are not happy or comfortable with your picture appearing here in this photoset on Flickr then please email us at petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com and we will remove it as soon as possible. We give careful consideration to each photograph before uploading.
I want to tell people about these great photographs!
Great! Thank you! The best link to spread the word around is probably http://www.flickr.com/peterm7/sets

Cone-in-cone limestone bed, composed of finely fibrous calcite. This weathered sample is likely derived from an interbed in the Ohio Shale outcrop belt (Frasnian-Famennian, Upper Devonian) of central Ohio, USA.
Cone-in-cone structures are strange features found as interbeds in fine-grained siliciclastic rocks and sometimes found in the outer layers of concretions. They consist of sets of conical structures stacked up within each other. Mineralogically, they are often composed of finely-crystalline fibrous calcite. Numerous hypotheses have been proposed over the years that try to explain cone-in-cone structures. None has emerged as the most popular or most likely (see Lugli et al., 2005 for a long list of proposed formation mechanisms). These structures remain a mystery.

Southbury Volunteers were dispatched to a morning fire at 126 Lower Fish Rock Rd the initial dispatch was for a fire involving a wood stove. They arrived to find a 2 story wood home set below the road on a lot with a steep incline sloping down to Lake Zoar with heavy fire showing. The large smoke column from the fire was clearly visible for miles due to the still and cold morning air. As fire fighters stretched in to attack the fire mutual aid was responding from Southbury Training School FD, Oxford, Sandy Hook, Woodbury, and Bethlehem in the form of tankers, engines, and a quint to help battle the blaze which was quickly spreading through out the dwelling. Several attempts were made to get the quint up the narrow and icy road without success. A water fill station at the travel center off I-84 was manned by Woodbury Engine 4 to resupply the multiple tankers shuttling water to the supply site at the intersection of Upper and Lower Fish Rock Rds. A defensive attack was established due to the damage and heavy fire in the upper floors of the structure and the stubborn fire would burn several hours before it was brought under control. At least one fire fighter was examined by EMS after he reported feeling ill at the scene. No civilian injuries were reported and the fire marshal was on scene to start the investigation as to the cause of the fire.

30 Interlocking Trapezoids 120 units
3-fold view.
Macro-polygonal structures with n-fold symmetry can seemingly have at least n+1 sided polygonal microstructure frames, but unsurprisingly, maximizing edge width demands that the microstructural frames are non-regular. Phrased otherwise, the paper proportions on a compound of 30 squares can be a lot wider if you allow them to not be squares, but rather trapezoids, parallelograms, etc. I designed a compound of 30 parallelograms years ago, so this compound of 30 trapezoids is nothing exceptionally notable, but it is still a solid addition to the series. Modelling the exterior vertices with paper consuming locks results in the units having very flat dihedral angles, hence leading to some bending, in spite of the fact that the frames are actually quite loose at these proportions. As a result, I might revise the exterior vertices in a future iteration.
Designed by me.
