Fort Kuala Kedah (Kota Kuala Kedah) is the oldest Malay fort in northern Malaysia and dates from the 17th century. It was destroyed and rebuilt in the 19th century and was occupied by the Japanese troops during the Japanese occupation of Malaya in the Second World War.
Sultan Sulaiman Syah who ruled from 1602 to 1620 built the original fort from clay, bakau timber and bamboo with the assistance of his allies, the Portuguese who had established a presence in the area. The sultan ruled from his base at Fort Seputeh, which was destroyed by the Acheh Armada in 1619 (an event which resulted the Portuguese being ousted from the area) and again in 1770 by the Bugis Armada.
In 1780 to 1782, Sultan Mukarram Syah, the 20th sultan of Kedah who ruled from 1778 to 1797, rebuilt and strengthened Fort Kuala Kedah. Hafiz Sab, an architect who was also the "Maharaja Kadhi", or religious head, directed the rebuilding of the fort with labor imported from India and gave its presence look. Cannons purchased from the British and the Dutch were placed around the fort. A palace was built inside it.
The fort was attacked and destroyed in November 1821 by the powerful Siamese Armada. It occurred during the reign of Sultan Ahmad Tajuddin Halim Syah II, the 22nd sultan of Kedah who ruled Kedah from 1804 to 1845. The fort was his administrative center.
The fort which was also known as For Kuala Bahang (Kota Kuala Bahang), is located near the mouth of Kedah River, about 12 kilometers from the town of Alor Setar. It was designated as a historical monument and historical site under the Antiquities Act 1976 in August 1978.

Kuala Kedah Lighthouse which closely resembles a chess rook isn’t perched on a hill, but on the grounds of a fort by the Straits of Malacca. It is belief that the British added the lighthouse and several other buildings here.

The British Gate. The British Gate / Archway was built circa 1909 when Kedah was under the British rule. The front of the gate is curved (round Roman arch) and is decorated with granite stones. Wooden flooring has been installed on the top part. Stairs were built to allow guards to ascend and regularly monitor the area just outside the walls.

Kacapuri Archway. The main door or archway located on the eastern side of the fort was given the name Kacapuri [the gate originally built by the Portuguese is called Pintu Malim]. The archway was built during the reign of Sultan Muhammad Jiwa Zainal Adilin Mu'adzam Shah II (1710-1778). This archway had collapsed in 1972 as a result of a violent storm and was reconstructed again by the museum in 2000 using its actual measurements. The designs of the archway reflect elements from the Middle East with the influence of Islam is seen in the dome located at its peak.

Fort Kuala Kedah (Kota Kuala Kedah) is the oldest Malay fort in northern Malaysia and dates from the 17th century. It was destroyed and rebuilt in the 19th century and was occupied by the Japanese troops during the Japanese occupation of Malaya in the Second World War.
Sultan Sulaiman Syah who ruled from 1602 to 1620 built the original fort from clay, bakau timber and bamboo with the assistance of his allies, the Portuguese who had established a presence in the area. The sultan ruled from his base at Fort Seputeh, which was destroyed by the Acheh Armada in 1619 (an event which resulted the Portuguese being ousted from the area) and again in 1770 by the Bugis Armada.
In 1780 to 1782, Sultan Mukarram Syah, the 20th sultan of Kedah who ruled from 1778 to 1797, rebuilt and strengthened Fort Kuala Kedah. Hafiz Sab, an architect who was also the "Maharaja Kadhi", or religious head, directed the rebuilding of the fort with labor imported from India and gave its presence look. Cannons purchased from the British and the Dutch were placed around the fort. A palace was built inside it.
The fort was attacked and destroyed in November 1821 by the powerful Siamese Armada. It occurred during the reign of Sultan Ahmad Tajuddin Halim Syah II, the 22nd sultan of Kedah who ruled Kedah from 1804 to 1845. The fort was his administrative center.
The fort which was also known as For Kuala Bahang (Kota Kuala Bahang), is located near the mouth of Kedah River, about 12 kilometers from the town of Alor Setar. It was designated as a historical monument and historical site under the Antiquities Act 1976 in August 1978.

The British Gate. The British Gate / Archway was built circa 1909 at the eastern wall when Kedah was under the British rule. The front of the gate is curved (round Roman arch) and is decorated with granite stones. Wooden flooring has been installed on the top part. Stairs were built to allow guards to ascend and regularly monitor the area just outside the walls.

Katak Puru Cannon (Toad Cannon). The uniqueness of Katak Puru Cannon lies in the way it was made. It is said to be a Malay-made cannon constructed from iron, and subsequently forged and pinched using the fingers while the iron is still red-hot. The process produced the craggy effect on the body of the cannon, resembling the skin of a toad. In the old days, this cannon was also used as a weapon of defense to protect the city from enemy attack.

Inadequate turning space (running/cross-slope that is excessive of 2%; = 3.5/2.6%) at end of ramp. Also since the turning space of this perpendicular curb ramp is constrained at the back-of-sidewalk (by a fence) the depth (in the direction of the ramp run) is supposed to be 5' instead of 4' (PROWAG R304.2.1). The fence currently constrains the ramp to a 4'. S-West=3.4%; X-West=16.4% &length= 4'0". S-East=0.1%; X-East=13.3% &length= 4'3". Ramp Run Y= 5'9" and slope=14.2%. PRoW = 8'., Add TD. Add groove lines. Make ramp entrance flush. Extend the western flare so as to reduce its slope to less than 10%. Extend the ramp run so as to reduce its slope to less than 8.3%. Reconstruct (and partially retract) the constraining retaining curb such that the turning space is at least 5' deep and fix its slopes.,

The minor planets of the Solar System are invaluable relics from its early
history, preserving a record of the processes that shaped its formation and
evolution. These objects display a wide range of compositions, from rocky and
metallic to icy and carbonaceous, providing crucial insights into the diverse
environments that existed within the Solar System's protoplanetary disk. In
this talk, I will summarize our current understanding of the compositional
diversity among asteroids in the inner Solar System, derived from
remote-sensing observations, the meteorite record, and sample-return missions.
I will connect this understanding to the processes at play in the early Solar
System and highlight key open questions regarding the formation of the (minor)
planets - many of which we may soon address. An upcoming surge of observations
from ground-based and space telescopes is set to reveal the minor planets in
both the inner and outer Solar System in a new light, continuing what has been
termed the "golden age of asteroid research

The founders of the USA never considered legislation to constrain an elected official like #TrumpConvictedFelon since such an office holder seemed improbable if not impossible. But here he is, bigger than life, serving as a sock puppet to younger handlers with more nimble minds, capable of frustrating the law with gray areas; testing the boundaries of the Executive Branch - without actually making laws, breaking laws, or ignoring laws.
This household flew their national banner upside down, either as a distress (emergency) signal, or as an expression of political criticism and rejection of the social injustice now spreading across the federal system of data, management, budgeting, and oversight.

I've created all the blendshapes, added joints and skinned the character. I'ved also textured and rigged the tongue...although can't work out how to constrain it. I worked alot on the teeth, but there's probably alot more work needed on the bottom set.
Next I'm going to go back and finish the texturing that I abandoned ealier.
The achievement gap between children from low-income backgrounds and their affluent peers has increased by 40 percent over the last three decades. The impact of this economic disparity can become apparent in children as young as 9 months. An AIR July 30th event examined the ways economic inequality can constrain young children's learning opportunities. Guest presenter C. Cybele Raver reviewed the neuroscience of early socioemotional development in the context of toxic stress, and panelists discussed ways to mitigate the effects.

A 3D model of a tripod head, as i take photography i am often faced with different equipment and upon seeing how mainly functions the head of a tripod can preform i decided to see if i was capable of modeling a functioning tripod head using CAD software. I started by making each piece as a separate component and then assembled them by constraining each component in a way that would allow them to function as intended. After completing the assembly i added both material and texture before rendering a high quality image of the final tripod head.

The eyes for the character were created by adding constraints to two NURBS curves which formed the eye lids. The arrows, when moved, control the character's eyelids. The eye balls were supposed to be parented and have constrains set to another NURBS curve to make moving them easier for animating but for some reason this didn't work so I would have to rotate them manually if I want them to during the animation.
