On the Kocherufer, large parts of the city wall are preserved, such as the Sulferturm. The town could only be reached by a furrow through the Kocher. In the half-timbered house next to the tower, the Haalamt, the independent administration of the former salt boilers, has been located for several centuries.
Schwäbisch Hall "Swabian Hall", or Hall for short, is a city in the German state of Baden-Württemberg and capital of the district of Schwäbisch Hall. The city is located in the valley of the Kocher river in the north-eastern part of Baden-Württemberg.
Hall was a Free Imperial City for five centuries until it was annexed by Württemberg in 1802.
"Schwäbisch" refers to the Swabian League (German: Schwäbischer Bund). The origin of the second part of the name, "Hall", is unclear. It might be derived from a West Germanic word family that means "drying something by heating it", possibly referring to the open-pan salt making method used there until the saltworks closed down in 1925.
It was established as Queen's College (in honour of Queen Victoria) in 1841, by the PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH of Canada in association with the Church of Scotland. Classes began on 7 March 1842 in a rented building with two professors and 10 students.
you wouldn't sit for a month :-)
Theodore Roosevelt
The slogan 'The buck stops here' is a promise that responsibility will not be passed on to anyone else. What's the origin of the phrase 'The buck stops here'? U.S. president Harry S. Truman had a sign on his desk with 'The buck stops here' inscribed on it.
NBC News’ Kristin Welker asked the president(Trump) if he is to blame for the lag in testing. “No, I don’t take responsibility at all,” he responded before quickly moving to his tried and true strategy: blame Obama. “We were given rules, regulations, and specifications from a different time.”
But that simply isn’t true. No remaining Obama-era regulation has prevented the administration from rolling out tests.
VOTE!! RESIST!! kick our president out of office at the polls!! stay safe and well :-)

... Zeichen / Farben der Zeit, die für Solidarität stehen ...
die Verwaltung meiner Heimatstadt zeigt sich mit dem ukrainischen Volk solidarisch, indem sie das Rathaus in den Farben der ukrainischen Flagge erstrahlen lässt - wie in diesen Tagen an so vielen Orten auf der Welt
Friede ! 💙💛

This is the first photo I took in Fort Kochi (Cochin) in the Kerala state of India, which is a historical city on the Malabar Coast.
Christmas celebration was continuing here on New Year's Day when I arrived. The monkey pod tree or rain tree (Samanea saman) is located near Santa Cruz Cathedral decorated as a Christmas tree. A few were dancing under the tree.
Tree worship is an element of Hinduism, which may or may not be reflected in the treatment of trees in the Christmas celebration in Fort Kochi
Kochi has been an important port city and an administration base to control Malabar Coast first for the Portuguese starting in the early 16th century, then for the Dutch in 1683 and onwards, and finally for the British in 1795 and onwards until India's independence in 1947.
As a result of the European presence in the area, the percentage of Christian population in Kochi municipality is 38% as compared to the national average of 2.3% according to the 2011 government statistics.
It is noted that Christianity has a long history in Kochi. Descendants of Nestorian christians who migrated from Syria in the 4th century AD have been living in Malabar Coast.
The administration office... - Built in the 17th century, acquired 20 years later to act as the central office for the steel industry. This large building, which has been expanded several times over the years, is now empty and abandoned. The main building is quite large and what remains is a large L-shaped structure spread over 3 floors and a large basement. Abandoned since 1986.
Large powerstation in the UK.

A little walk through one of Springfield's older parks brought this scene to light. Here is some information...
"Fassnight Park is located at Meadowmere Street between Campbell and Grant Avenues. It contains 28 acres of land with trees and a stream. The Springfield Park Board purchased the land in 1924 from Conrad and Emma Fassnight, who had traveled to Springfield with their parents from Michigan in 1886. The foreman of the Fassnight Park project was Godfrey Messerli. He was greatly skilled as a stonemason and created bridges, the bathhouse, the swimming pool and other structures using the fieldstone and Carthage stone found in the area. The labor was done by the Works Progress Administration (W.P.A.).
In 1977 the entire park, including the swimming pool, had deteriorated because of erosion and the fact that the intricate stonemason's work was prohibitively expensive to repair. The pool was closed and the city considering demolishing the swimming pool and bathhouse and replacing them with new state-of-the-art facilities. In the end the city decided to renovate the pool and bathhouse and preserve their unique architecture. This may have been when the waterfall in the pool was removed.
In 1995 a $60,000 water slide was added to Fassnight Pool. It was intended to be a moneymaking venture, with its $3 (later $5) fee helping to fund the swimming pool. An extended pool deck including playground equipment inside the pool area was added later. In 1996 a hard-rubber water serpent was added to the pool. It was tethered to the floor of the shallow end.
Fassnight Park has one of Springfield's most popular pools. The Springfield-Greene County Park Board renovated Fassnight Pool in 2009, and it remains the largest pool in the parks system today."

The Zollern colliery in Dortmund is one of the most beautiful testimonies to Germany's industrial past. An icon of industrial culture made of steel and glass is the machine hall with the stained-glass Art Nouveau portal. Discover the "Palace of Labor", look behind the magnificent brick facades, climb the headframe, follow the coal path and immerse yourself in a world of hard work underground.

Former Land Registry Office: The first Registry 0ffice built in Oxford County was located West of here at the corner of Hunter and Light Streets in 1847. This building, the second Registry Office, was constructed in 1876 and remained in use until 1952. The roof is said to be sand-filled, making the building bomb-proof.

In this way, some Norwegian architects believe that an important building in an urban environment known for its beauty should look like. I think there are slightly different opinions about it...

Excerpt from chur.graubuenden.ch:
Large and grey, yet friendly - that sums up the building constructed by St. Moritz architect Nicolaus Hartmann between 1907 und 1910. While its grey, starkly structured façades give the building a majestic appearance, thanks to its large forecourt it is not overpowering. The architecture is an expression of the so-called "Bündner Heimatstil", a movement that took up and developed the traditional style of building of the region. The prestigious yet agreeable administration building is regarded as one of the movement's most significant works.

USDOT, through the Federal Railroad Administration, runs the Automated Track Inspection Program (ATIP). With a fleet of three unmanned passenger cars, trips are taken on Amtrak trains (and some freight trains) across the country to survey rail lines and ensure compliance with track safety standards.
This railcar, DOTX 221, was built by Pullman Standard in 1954 as a 2 double bedroom, 2 compartment buffet-lounge. It was built for Canadian National as CNR 1083, the "Cape Brule". It became VIA 1083 after the nationalization of Canada's passenger services, and was eventually sold to the Hartwell-Lowe Corporation as HLC 1847. It was acquired by USDOT/FRA in the early 2000's and painted in this Pennsy-inspired scheme.

This office looked like the drug admin dept. Lots of paperwork listing administration of drugs to patients from 1979 to 2003.

Te present administration isn't one to admire natural beauty. If it isn't like a golf course or an exclusive resort there is "room for improvement". These "light-up statues" might be considered an asset by the Golfer-In-Chief who occasionally directs the show.
The original photo was a color photo of the Grand Canyon's Northern Rim a couple of years before this summer's devastating wildfire. Photoleap was used to create this image.
Nowadays, the exhibition is shown in a modern building next to the administration building. The museum is very much worth while. www.gutenberg-museum.de/
Seattle, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA 2024
This government hub is famous for its distinct geometric architecture and the striking public art that greets visitors at the main entrance.
The Building: Completed in 1971, the building is renowned for its unique "honeycomb" facade, featuring hundreds of hexagonal windows. It is a prime example of mid-century modernist institutional design.
The Tubular Sculpture: The iron structure you described, resembling a snake biting its own tail, is a public art installation inspired by the Ouroboros. This ancient symbol represents the eternal cycle of life, renewal, and infinity.
Artistic Contrast: The flowing, tubular metal of the sculpture provides a soft, organic contrast to the rigid, heavy concrete and hexagonal patterns of the building’s exterior.
Civic Heart: Located on 4th Avenue, this site is the administrative engine of King County, situated right in the middle of Seattle's civic center near the City Hall and the Courthouse.
