I think the culprit artist responsible for this house has also worked in Upper Clapton. I find the effect quite pleasing, Cladding also seems to work much better on the flat fronted 1890s houses, whereas it can sometimes appear rather heavy with ornately surrounded bay windows to contend with. I particularly like both the front wall and the partition wall. Very very good. Quite unusally for this area, the next door house has retained its brickwork unpainted, unadorned, unclad, unpebbledashed. Quite a strong red.
Purpose-built office building, 1936-8, by Stanley Hamp of Colcutt and Hamp. Later additions including additional two storeys of 1993, in a style and materials which broadly match the original building, as well as late-C20 alterations to the interior.
EXTERIOR: A steel-framed building with reinforced concrete and pot floors, clad in Portland stone on its riverside frontage with a mixture of buff brick and Portland stone to its land-facing elevations. It originally had eight storeys to John Adam Street, and a further three to the Embankment, where the ground level drops towards the river; two further storeys were added in 1993. The design and detailing of the building are strongly Moderne or Art Deco, a popular idiom for commercial buildings at this time. It is expressed here through the curved balconies to the river frontage, the bronze anodised bow windows within each recess, plentiful use of sculpture and the jazzy patternwork around the entrance portals, to the cornices and in the bronze railings and panels. Classical motifs are also deployed, for example the coffering under the colonnade and the carved putti in the side elevation door surrounds. Much of the carved stonework is figurative, but there are also four giant allegorical relief figures on the corners of the Embankment front, representing west-east: 'Dawn' (actually it is east to west!) (by Bainbridge Copnall), 'Contemplation' (by Arthur J Ayres), 'Inspiration' (by Gilbert Ledward), and 'Night' (by Donald Gilbert). In scale and visual power, the four allegorical figures along the riverside are impressive. They frame the advancing wings and their expressive gestures emphasise the verticality of the building. Carved under the direction of one of the foremost interwar British sculptors, Gilbert Ledward, the four sculptures are one of the few remaining architectural works by him in situ. Also important are the carved reveal panels to the entrance doors on John Adam Street by Newbury Abbot Trent depicting scenes of industry. Other sculpture includes carved coats of arms of UK cities at ground floor level to the east and west elevations, and smaller panels on a variety of themes including the signs of the zodiac, agriculture, and industry; the artists of these features are unknown, but their abundance, period character and considerable charm contribute to the interest of the building. The lettering above the entrances, in sans serif capital letters, was executed by George Manswell.
The building incorporates a roadway and promenade on the south side (known as Adelphi Terrace) with views across Victoria Embankment Gardens and the river. A garage undercroft takes advantage of the slope down to the Thames to allow vehicular access at street level from Savoy Place. The treatment of the drop in levels to the Embankment lends the building a particularly dramatic effect, with the two side wings projecting on square pillars over the upper road, which itself rests on a colonnade at Embankment level, running alongside Savoy Place. This multi-level arrangement was designed with the motor car in mind and is a characterful expression interwar modernity. The stone here is sharply-cut and unmoulded, in contrast to the more undulating upper floors with their curved balconies and bow windows. To Savoy Place, fluted classical columns and Deco bronzework illustrate the eclecticism that characterises the 1930s.

Split Croatia- Pine-clad hills, secluded coves, beaches- Split and the Dalmatian Riviera have been premier destinations on the Adriatic since the days of theRoman Emperors.
In fact, medieval Split was built within and around the palace built for the emperor Diocletian in his retirement.
The charms that entertained Emperors are still evident today. The Dalmatian Riviera offers the traveler a heady blend of natural beauty and fascinating cultural sites.
Diocletian abdicated in 305 A.D . During his reign , the emperor ruthlessly persecuted Christians. Ironically Split’s St. Dominius’ Cathedral occupies his mausoleum.
As far as we know, the original settlers here were Dalmatians tribes, later joined by Greek merchants, who saw the value of the harbor and its proximity to the rich interior. The first Romans stablished a colony nearby at Selona in 78 B.C, taking full advantage of the same features. Selona eventually became the Roman administrative center for Dalmatia, especially after Caesar settled other Italian colonist there. Roman roads and aqueducts were added to exploit the rich mines and farms along the sunny coast.
Diocletian Palace- The heart of old Split is built within and around the sprawling 8.4 acre(3.4 hectare) Palace erected by Diocletians.
A rather unbalanced composition. Heaven knows why the lower part was deluged with dark coloured stone. the central drainpipe is infelicitious and the cladder has taken the easy way out by removing all trace of the gentle arch over the doorways.
I am a bit edgy about the spread of the bush. A fine piece of monochrome cladding does not need out of control foliage as competition. Once again, some original brickwork has survived next door.
About "Black Clad Burglar": Just a fun piece I decided to experiment with more-graphic body-shape styling...in this case, I wanted to infuse the portrait/figure with a sleek-aesthetic and have a free-play with the background.
Maximum Likelihood tree of O104:H4 E. coli strains.Tree is shown in the rectangular cladogram format and has been rooted with the outgroup consisting of two commensal strains (labeled in magenta). Genomes consisting of raw reads are labeled in blue. Colored dots indicate country of origin where known. Numbers at the internal nodes indicate the number of alleles that are shared exclusively by the descendants of each node. Zeros are not shown. Numbers in parentheses following the genome names are number of alleles exclusive to that genome.
Ralstonia solanacearum strains classified based on RIF genotypes.
The rooted neighbor-joining cladogram was constructed from 210 characterized Ralstonia strains from the PBC (Table 2), six reference strains from GenBank (see Table 1 for strain names)and the outgroup Burkholderia mallei. Identical sequences are represented only once and the number of sequenced strains is indicated on each leaf. Bootstrap values >50% (shown at the node) are expressed as a percentage of 5,000 replicates. All Rs strains (clade A) are clearly separated from other Ralstonia species. Rs1, Rs2, Rs3 and Rs4 are the four races of R. solanacearum, BDB is the blood disease bacterium and Rs† is R. solanacearum UW433 (ACH0732) which is an atypical race 1 biovar 2 strain [19]. Blue boxes contain strains of Rs races 1, 2, 4 and BDB that share an identical RIF sequence. In contrast, orange boxes contain only Rs3 strains showing that these RIF sequences are specific to race 3. Numbers in boxes next to tree leaves are egl sequevars obtained for those strains. Red text indicates Rs strains with no previous race designation.
Found this ironclad beetle near the night snake. When I was taking general entomology, one of the students collected one of these, and the TA told us they were notorious for surviving freezing, noxious fumes, and finally impalement on a pin. I like how they have antenna grooves.
One of the very very best. An elegant terrace, built 1885 with some nice detailing in the panels between floors and beneath the eaves. (see in All sizes) I am less keen on the door and windows which both rather over-egg the pudding, but I can't fault the cladding and indeed the choice of house. A very fine residence. The design features (it looks like the date is missing, c 1885-6 from the plaque) were used by George Sherrin in Westcombe Park Avenue in Blackheath from the same period.
Pleurodeles waltl DNA polymerase ?.Schematic representation of P. waltl Pol? mRNAs (A). The short variant (Pol? ? Ex 8) presents a 103 bp deletion corresponding to exon 8. This deletion removes one part of the active site of the protein. The BRCT (breast cancer suppressor protein carboxy-terminal) and the Pol X domain, which contains the active site, are required for Pol? function. Pol? variants were amplified using primers indicated by horizontal arrows (B). Quantification of the obtained PCR products using a Gel Doc 2000 and the Quantity One v.4.3.1 software (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA, USA) indicates that the short isoform represents 16% and 6% of the Pol? transcripts in the spleen and testis of P. waltl, respectively. Ctl??=?negative control. MW?=?100 bp DNA ladder. A cladogram was then constructed by neighbor joining (C) supported with 1000 bootstrap replications using the MEGA4 software (www.megasoftware.net/) and the following sequences: Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT); Bos taurus (DAA14763), Homo sapiens (BAB72001), Mus musculus (NP_001036693), Gallus gallus (NP_990720), Ambystoma mexicanum (AA092254), Xenopus laevis (NP_001079251), Danio rerio (AAS89780). Polymerase beta; Mus musculus (NP_035260), Homo sapiens (NP_002681), Xenopus laevis (NP_001081643), Xenopus tropicalis (AAH74537), Xiphophorus maculatus (AAU11319). Polymerase lambda; Danio rerio (NP_998408), Xenopus tropicalis (NP_001093716), Mus musculus (NP_064416), Homo sapiens (NP_001167555). Polymerase mu; Homo sapiens (NP_037416), Mus musculus (NP_059097), Danio rerio (NP_956542), Xenopus tropicalis (NP_001164987), Pleurodeles waltl (HE583591). The scale bar corresponds to the evolutionary distance.
10/20/2012 TRT Spooner to Kingsbury, out and back.
Although brilliantly sunny, it was also breezy and chilly. At this moment I was thinking how fully torqued it would be to be reclined comfortably in a La-z-Boy, with a Miller Lite in one hand, and a remote in the other, a Little Caesar's XL Meat Lover's Thick Crust on the coffee table in front of me, and two games going on at once on my badass 60 inch HD flat screen with picture in picture capability. Go (insert your favorite team here)!!!!!!
RIF tree of plant pathogenic Enterobacteriaceae.
The rooted neighbor-joining cladogram was constructed from 74 Enterobacteriaceae strains, including 24 characterized strains of Dickeya, Pectobacterium and Pantoea from the PBC (Supplemental Table S2), eight reference strains from GenBank (see Table 1 for strain names) and the outgroup Yersinia pestis. Identical sequences are represented only once and the number of sequenced strains is indicated on each leaf. Bootstrap values >50% (shown at the node) are expressed as a percentage of 5,000 replicates. The true Erwinia species E. tasmaniensis separates from the renamed Erwinia species that branch into three different genera: Dickeya (clade A), Pectobacterium (clades G and H) and Pantoea (clade M). Red text indicates uncharacterized strains of Dickeya and green text indicates uncharacterized strains of Pectobacterium. K numbers are shown for the accessions discussed in the text (Supplemental Table S2).
It is not the end of the physical body that should worry us. Rather, our concern must be to live while we're alive - to release our inner selves from the spiritual death that comes with living behind a facade designed to conform to external definitions of who and what we are.

BEAST chronogram for the combined data and hypothesized biogeographic history of Sarraceniaceae.(A) Mean divergence times estimates are shown at the nodes of the cladogram. 95% posterior probability distribution shown with thick blue lines. Ancestral areas reconstructions from LAGRANGE [70], [71] shown in boxes near nodes. SA = South America; ENA = Eastern North America; WNA = Western North America; SAf = South Africa; and As = Asia. (B) We hypothesize that Sarraceniaceae originated in the Middle Eocene, perhaps in South America, and achieved its widespread distribution in North and South America by the Late Eocene. An early migration of Sarraceniaceae out of South America during the Eocene may have been facilitated via land connections in the proto-Caribbean. This connection would likely have been unavailable for direct overland migration by the mid-Oligocene, which is consistent with the early Oligocene disjunction of northern (Sarracenia, Darlingtonia) and southern (Heliamphora) members of Sarraceniacace. An East (Sarracenia+Heliamphora)/West (Darlingtonia) disjunction occurred in the very latest Oligocene, and may have been attributable to broad scale cooling and aridification during the late Oligocene.
