nrhp # 83001926- The Rudolf Hotel in Valley City, North Dakota is a three-story hotel building that was built in 1907. It was designed by John W. Ross in Classical Revival style. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.[1]
Its significance recognized in the listing was for its association with Rudolph Giselius (1872-1944), for its example of work by North Dakota architect John W. Ross (1848–1914), for it being the oldest hotel in Valley City, and for its role in the local business and social community through the years. At the listing date in 1983, it had been vacant since 1977.[2]
Its basement was site of Kiwanis Club meetings, and the first meeting of the North Dakota Aberdeen-Angus Breeders Association (in 1942).[3][4] [5]
It has since been converted to senior-living apartments, named Rudolf Square.

Most people regard redundant gasometers as eyesores that should be demolished as quickly as possible.....and to be honest, I can't honestly put up much of an argument against with this soon to be demolished example from Weymouth. However, they have always been a source of fascination ever since I was a child. As an adult I watched many televised cricket Test Matches from the Oval in London, with the adjacent gas holder looming behind the ground. Get them whilst you can. They are disappearing fast.

Nel 1986 l’artista sovietico Il’ja Glazunov, durante il periodo riformatore della perestrojka, è riuscito a far rivivere la gloriosa Accademia di Belle Arti di Mosca che tanto seguito aveva avuto nel corso dell’Ottocento e nel periodo delle avanguardie russe degli anni venti del Novecento. Vi ebbero influenza e vi furono ospiti artisti come Lentulov, Konchalovsky, Mashkov, Rodchenko, come anche Malevich e Kandinsky.
Fondamentalmente legata alla tradizione pittorica dei grandi modelli della pittura e della scultura classica, in primis italiana, o alle rievocazioni storiche e religiose del folclore e del sentimento popolare russo, l’Accademia a metà negli anni ’20 fu fusa con altre istituzioni più tecniche che artistiche per volere dello stesso Lenin, in nome di un certo disprezzo per la pittura antica e i modelli classici a favore del cosiddetto “realismo socialista” che voleva avvicinare l’arte alle classi proletarie in chiave di propaganda politica. Oggi, scomparso il suo rifondatore, Il’ja Glazunov, questa particolarissima Accademia è retta dal figlio Ivan Glazunov, artista di grande rilievo, in nome di un ritorno a quei temi cari alla cultura del popolo russo, alla sua letteratura, alla sua musica, al suo teatro e al suo più antico mondo poetico ovvero lo sguardo alla storia nazionale, al sentimento e alla tradizione religiosa popolare e alla mitologia del popolo russo insieme ai suoi paesaggi e visioni architettoniche.
In 1986 the Soviet artist Il'ja Glazunov, during the reform period of perestroika, managed to revive the glorious Moscow Academy of Fine Arts that had been so popular during the nineteenth century and the Russian avant-garde period of the 1920s. There was an influence and artists such as Lentulov, Konchalovsky, Mashkov, Rodchenko, as well as Malevich and Kandinsky were guests.
Basically linked to the pictorial tradition of the great models of classical painting and sculpture, primarily Italian, or to the historical and religious re-enactments of Russian folklore and popular sentiment, the Academy in the mid 1920s was merged with other institutions more technical than artistic at the behest of Lenin himself, in the name of a certain contempt for ancient painting and classical models in favour of the so-called "socialist realism" which wanted to bring art closer to the proletarian classes in terms of political propaganda. Today, after the death of its re-founder, Il'ja Glazunov, this very particular Academy is run by his son Ivan Glazunov, an artist of great importance, in the name of a return to those themes dear to the culture of the Russian people, its literature, its music, its theatre and its most ancient poetic world, i.e. the look at national history, popular religious sentiment and tradition and the mythology of the Russian people together with its landscapes and architectural visions.

The Goethe House (the yellow house to the right) is one of the 12 buildings/ensembles that the World Heritage consists of. In the late 18th century and early 19th century the town of Weimar witnessed a remarkable cultural flowering, attracting many writers and scholars. The German writer Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832) was one of them. He settled in Weimar in 1775 and in 1782 he moved in to this house. He became friends with German poet Friedrich von Schiller (1759-1805). This relationship and these discussions led to a period now referred to as Weimar Classicism.

I love Classic Space, and yet I don't build much in the theme. I finally got around to making a small CS build recently though. It all started with the rover, which was pretty quick and easy. Then I moved onto the robot, which took a couple days. Then I built the radar dish (which only took about 5 minutes) and completed it with a couple of my dad's classic spaceman. The base went through 3 different versions before I found something I was happy with. I hope you like it!
It'll probably be almost a month before I post another build as I'm working on a bigger project for Brickworld, but I'll probably post quite a few Lego in the real world pictures in the mean time.
People come & go [as they please]. The busyness of life [or as we humans would refer to as the daily grind] reveals its true self to us; simply observing the scene from atop Interstate-5 only gives us a glimpse of all that activity pertaining to life.

The temple was built in Tang Dynasty. After six times of fire, sixteen times of enlargement and repair in Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, it was built to be today’s size in 1882 AD (the eighth year of Guangxu Emperor, Qing Dynasty). It covers an area of 9,8000 square meters. The temple is of nine layers and four courtyards. It consists of Jiuxing Door, Kuixing Pavilion, Yubei Pavilion, Jiaying Door, Yushu House, Main Hall, Bedroom, east and west side doors and four turrets. The Main Hall is the main body of the building, with the largest scale, which is also called Big Hall or Shengdi Hall. It is 24 meters high, with 72 stone stelae, symbolizing the 72 peaks of Southern Sacred Mountain. The wood carving of jumping dragon and flying phoenix under the eaves and the wood carving on the door are very delicate.
