There are three prime numbers in the range 1-6 and three spots in row F on the right half of the board. Therefore, F4, F5, and F6 must all contain prime numbers. The three numbers in F3, F4, and F5 must be distinct, because they are all in the same row. There are three possible combinations of three distinct numbers that add up to 12: 1, 5, 6; 2, 4, 6; and 3, 4, 5. The only one of these combinations that contains two prime numbers is 3, 4, 5. Therefore, F4 and F5 must contain a 3 and a 5 (though we don’t know which is which yet), so F3 has to contain a 4. Moreover, F6 must contain a 2 because it is the last remaining prime number that has not been accounted for.

Photo session №2 after the Photo session for the contest "PhotoCity 2013". The theme was BEGINNING, so I was inspired to show a new beginning for a girl, leaving the old teenage style behind to become a young lady. After I got my photos for the contest I made myself some photos to show off my new dress in combination with one of my favorite pairs of shoes.

Signs of the festive season abound, how welcome they are and how dated and passé will they look in in say three weeks time?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uGBie5pT9nw

That's my point of view - a girl leaving the teenage years behind to become a young woman with a new style.

My wife planted zinnias by seed this year. We have been seeing a great number of blossoms.

Baconfest #7 - talking with Ed Bacon biographer, Greg Heller.

 

Ed Bacon is the only city planner to grace the cover page of time magazine in 1964, and on the cover of Life in 1965. While he may be known as the father of Kevin Bacon, the impact of Edmund’s work helped shape the landscape of the City of Philadelphia, where he served as the head of the planning commission for two decades beginning in 1949. In retirement, he undertook an extensive four part series titled “Understanding Cities” beginning in 1981. Baconfest is an exploration of this film series.

Hilton Cabana (formerly Allison Hotel), Miami Beach, Florida

 

-In the Beginning-

 

In May 1951 construction started on a 72-unit apartment building (66 one bedroom and 6 two-bedroom units) to cost $1.2 million. It was sited on a 118x400 foot lot at 6261 Collins Ave owned by Mr. & Mrs. Russell Imerblum. The Imerblum's leased the land to the Allison Operating Company, whose principal owners were Sam Rosen, Louis Adler and Arthur Adler. The building's architect was H. A. Mathes.

 

Arthur A. Adler moved to Miami Beach in 1936. In the early 1950's he bought the Leamington Hotel, 307 NE First St. in Miami. In 1957 he bought and managed the Ponce de Leon Hotel, 231 E. Flagler. He also built the Allison Hotel.

 

In 1950 Arthur A. Adler, while building the Allison Hotel, organized the Caravana Turistica de la Miami (Miami Tourist Caravan) and made repeated trips to South America and Central America to drum up tourism. Adler made many sales trips throughout Latin America and Europe and pioneered package tours to Latin America where he would bring teams of Florida mayors and travel industry workers to promote Miami as an international destination. He was a past president of the Miami Beach Hotel Association. He sold his hotels in the 1970's.

 

In 1957 the 152-room Allison Hotel was leased by Louis and Arthur Adler to Milton A. Baxt and Saul Cheskes for 10 1/2 years for $2,750,000. The air-conditioned Allison Hotel was considered a luxury hotel and had a nickname "New Englander's Home Away from Home". Milton Baxt was known as his own clothes designer. The clothes were made in New Haven, CT and may have started the Ivy League Trend, according to Esquire Magazine.

 

In 1981 The Allison Hotel was offering an $895 monthly rate for a room with all the resort facilities including 3 meals per day.

 

In 1983 - Allison Resorts Inc. a Panama Corp whose president is Eli Nemer signed an agreement to sell the Allison Hotel at 6261 Collins Ave for $4.5 million. The hotel previously sold in 1970 for $1,310,000. The buyer is Intercontinental Hotel and Management Service Inc. whose president is Caroline Weiss. Forecasted projected income from rentals were suggested to be $1,585,000 in 1983.

 

Caroline Weiss and her husband Jack, an attorney, were principals in a number of condominium/hotel/office developments in South Florida. In 1976 Their Sun Hotels Development group worked on building a $40 million, 500-room, Hyatt Regency Hotel at Brickell Avenue and SE 4th St. The project never happened after the land owner (the Elks Club) filed a foreclosure action against Sun for being over 9 months late on a $1 million payment. Different developers did open the 608-room Hyatt Regency in 1982 on top of the James L. Knight Convention Center.

 

1985 - The Allison Hotel was foreclosed on. Foreclosure proceedings were filed by Alpha Venture Inc, a firm headed by Haim Bar Navon, who held a $300,000 mortgage on the hotel. The hotel also had a first mortgage of $1.9 million with City Federal Savings that was in default. Defendant is Allison on the Ocean Inc. headed by Chantal Fianson. Other debts on the hotel are two loans for $1 million owed to Altamira Investment, NV

 

-- the 2000's--

 

2004 - The Allison Hotel, known as the Comfort Inn in recent years, will be reborn in 2006 as Cabana, a condominium development that is being lauded by city planners and preservationists as an example of how good preservation can be - and how a historic district can be economically viable.

 

The developers of the Cabana project say the Allison - built in 1951 and designed by A. Herbert Mathes - would have been doomed if the preservation district had not been on line.

 

Ronald Bloomberg, president and principle of BSG Development said they would have developed new if we could have torn it down but the district prevented that.

 

The concept of the project is a beach retreat made up of 210 luxuriously furnished studios of 350 square feet and up to 525 square feet. It is designed for residents who want a turnkey pad in Miami Beach but don't want to pay millions for it. The studios start at $200,000 and since they went on the market two months ago 40% have been sold according to Bloomberg. The planned renovation to the building would add two floors, extend the building in the rear and add balconies. It would also raise the pool deck (allowing a view of the ocean) and disguise two floors of parking underneath avoiding the monolithic concrete parking garages common in high rises.

 

Bloomberg said "Almost 95 percent of the new construction that’s on the ocean today (2004) are condominiums that are two bedrooms and larger,” noting that those units cost around a million bucks.

 

Cabana studios, by contrast, start at $200,000. (Depending on height, exposure and terrace size, they can run up to $600,000.) Bloomberg also planned a beach club with private memberships for non-residents at an annual cost of $3,000. Bloomberg was negotiating for a world-class restaurant with Jerry Chodorow with China Grill Management.

 

The Allison Hotel was closed and gutted in 2007 in anticipation of a condominium conversion. The conversion did not materialize and the property went into foreclosure. The work by BSG Development stopped amid dozens of contractor liens and a foreclosure lawsuit by Regions Bank. The bank sold the $36.6 million loan to Miami-based Florida Special Asset Recovery LLC, which took title to the property at a January 2010 foreclosure auction.

 

On April 7, 2011 Florida Special Asset Recovery LLC sold the Cabana on Collins for $11.3 million to the Rockpoint Group and Witkoff Group (RP/WG Cabana). Rockpoint is a Dallas-based an international real estate investment firm. Witkoff is a New York City based condo and hotel developer.

 

Steven Witkoff is Chairman & Chief Executive Officer of the Witkoff Group, which he founded in 1997. Since founding the firm, Mr. Witkoff has leveraged his extensive real estate expertise to successfully lead the financing, repositioning, and construction of over 70 properties in major business districts in the U.S.

 

By 2011, The redevelopment began of the Hilton Cabana Miami Beach as a 231-room beachfront hotel on Collins Avenue in Miami Beach’s “Millionaire’s Row” neighborhood just minutes from South Beach. Witkoff completed the development of this hotel after purchasing a note and gaining possession of the property through foreclosure in 2011. Development work, which won an award from Hilton for top conversion of the year, included preservation of the historically significant 1950s Miami Modern (MiMo) façade of the main building. Amenities include two outdoor pools, the Cabana Grill restaurant, and a fitness center.

 

2014 - The Hilton Cabana Miami Beach at 6261 Collins Ave opened in July, 2014. Built on the site of the former Allison Hotel, the new Hilton has two towers. One incorporated the old hotel with two new floors built on top. A second tower is completely new.

 

RP/WG Cabana, a Delaware affiliate of Dallas-based Rockpoint Group, sold the 231-room hotel for about $310,000 a key to Bethesda, Md.-based RLJ June 20, 2014 a day after the hotel opened to the public.

 

RLJ Lodging Trust acquired the property for $71.6 million. As of 2014 with the addition of this hotel, RLJ owned 148 properties, comprised of 146 hotels with approximately 23,000 rooms located in 21 states and the District of Columbia.

 

Didier Quintana, since 2022, has been the General Manager at Hilton Cabana Miami Beach.

Pre-kindergarten teacher Angelika Miles introduces a student to her classmates on the first day of the Army Child, Youth and School Services Strong Beginnings Program Sept. 8. Strong Beginnings is an Army Family Covenant program designed to prepare students for the transition to kindergarten. Skills taught meet Army early learning standards and include basic academic and classroom etiquette skills and focus on the social, emotional and physical development of children. Army CDCs in the States as well as worldwide were losing preschool children to civilian preschool programs or state-run preschool programs, so to counter that trend, the Army came up with Strong Beginnings to help parents prepare their children for school.

Beginnings are scary. Endings are usually sad, but it's what's in the middle that counts.

St. Michael's square

Until the 18th century there was no place but only a crossroads of today paths Carbon market-St. Michael's wing thoroughfare and Street of the Lords-Riding school alley. The first one was in the Roman period and even in the Middle Ages only an access road only reaching up to the crossing center (from Peiler gate over the Carbon market), which was after the expansion of the city in the late 12th century continued to the new Widmer gate (afterwards Castle gate) and now lay within the new curtain wall (the beginning of the trade route via the Mariahilf and Linz street towards west; west of the Carbon market arose the suburb At the Long Wall with Wallner street as an axis), the latter during the Roman period a portion of the Limes road. In the first half of the 13th century was founded (as the second parish church next to St. Stephan), the St. Michael's Church; the at the same time laid out Michaelerfreithof (cemetery) lay at the corner of Carbon market-Riding school alley; the other corners were formed by townhouses. In the last third of the 15th century the houses on the corner Riding school alley with (today's passage) through the St. Michael's wing were purchased by the Prince Regnant, on this area arose in the early 16th century as part of the Hofburg the imperial Lustgarten (later called Paradeisgarten - Paradise garden), which is already listed on Wolmuets map (1547). The conversion of the intersection into a square began with the construction of the Winter Riding School on the grounds of "Paradeisgartels - Paradise garden" (1729-1735), the Chancellery tract with the torso of the St. Michael's tract of the Hofburg (1723-30; inclusion of some opposite houses, construction then suspended and only at the end of the 19th century completed) and the Small St. Michael's house (1732-33) on a part of the abandoned cemetery (the "corners" of these buildings being withdrawn semicircularly or diagonally so that the square formation was made possible). The evolving itself from an older Ballhaus/Ballspielhaus (a building for playing ball games) old Burgtheater in the semicircle of the unfinished Michaeler tract of the Hofburg (from 1776 German National Theatre) gave the place a new emphasis. 1766 finds the label "Michaeler Platzl (the small one)", 1795 Michaelerplatz and 1848 (during the revolution) in the short term "Constitution Square". With the completion of the St. Michael's tract (1889-1893) which the old Hofburg Theater as well as some houses of leading over today's Place West line of the Carbon market (which had extended until over Schaufler alley) fell victim to the construction of the Herberstein Palace (1897) and the Loos house (1910), whose construction lines also had been retracted, the Michaelerplatz obtained its present appearance.

Michaelerplatz (1).

Bis ins 18. Jahrhundert gab es hier keinen Platz, sondern nur eine Straßenkreuzung der heutigen Trassen Kohlmarkt-Michaelertraktdurchfahrt und Herrengasse-Reitschulgasse. Erstere war in der Römerzeit und noch im Hochmittelalter eine nur bis zur Kreuzungsmitte reichende Zubringerstraße (vom Peilertor über den Kohlmarkt), die nach der Stadterweiterung am Ende des 12. Jahrhunderts bis zum neuen Widmertor (nachmals Burgtor) fortgesetzt wurde und nun innerhalb der neuen Ringmauer lag (Beginn der Fernhandelsstraße über die Mariahilfer und Linzer Straße nach Westen; westlich des Kohlmarkts entstand die Vorstadt An der langen Mauer mit der Wallnerstraße als Achse), letztere zur Römerzeit ein Teilstück der Limesstraße. In der ersten Hälfte des 13. Jahrhunderts wurde (als zweite Stadtpfarrkirche neben St. Stephan) die Michaelerkirche gegründet; der zur gleichen Zeit angelegte Michaelerfreithof lag an der Ecke Kohlmarkt-Reitschulgasse; die anderen Ecken wurden durch Bürgerhäuser gebildet. Im letzten Drittel des 15. Jahrhunderts wurden die Häuser an der Ecke der Reitschulgasse mit der (heutigen) Durchfahrt durch den Michaelertrakt vom Landesfürsten käuflich erworben; auf diesem Areal entstand im frühen 16. Jahrhundert als Teil der Hofburg der kaiserliche Lustgarten (später Paradeisgarten genannt), der bereits auf Wolmuets Stadtplan (1547) verzeichnet ist. Die Wandlung der Kreuzung in einen Platz begann mit der Erbauung der Winterreitschule auf dem Areal des "Paradeisgartels" (1729-1735), des Reichskanzleitrakts mit dem Torso des Michaelertrakts der Hofburg (1723-30; Einbeziehung einiger gegenüberliegender Häuser; Bau dann eingestellt und erst am Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts vollendet) und des Kleinen Michaelerhauses (1732-33) auf einem Teil des aufgehobenen Friedhofs (wobei die "Ecken" dieser Gebäude halbkreisförmig beziehungsweise schräg zurückgenommen wurden, sodass die Platzbildung ermöglicht wurde). Das sich aus einem älteren Ballhaus entwickelte (alte) Burgtheater im Halbrund des unfertigen Michaelertrakts der Hofburg (ab 1776 Deutsches Nationaltheater) gab dem Platz einen neuen Akzent. 1766 findet sich die Bezeichnung "Michaelerplatzl", 1795 Michaelerplatz und 1848 (während der Revolution) kurzfristig "Constitutionsplatz". Mit der Vollendung des Michaelertrakts (1889-1893), dem das alte Hofburgtheater sowie einige Häuser der bis über den heutigen Platz führenden Westzeile des Kohlmarkts (die sich bis über die Schauflergasse hingezogen hatte) zum Opfer fielen, dem Bau des Herbersteinpalais (1897) und des Looshauses (1910), deren Baulinien ebenfalls zurückgenommen wurden, erhielt der Michaelerplatz seine heutige Gestalt.

As the game began, at least for Nate

Beginning on August 13, constructors can pick up their letters—equipped, in the meantime, with a receiver—and bring them along to the voestalpine Klangwolke in Donaupark on the evening of September 1.

Visitors to the Klangwolke Werkstatt are provided with construction kits for all 26 letters of the alphabet as well as LED strips, 9-volt battery connectors and switches. The front side of each letter can be designed with semi-transparent, variously colored paper, cloth, stickers and other decorative materials to let constructors give free rein to their imagination.
