Because of the Strong Currents and Deep Water the Bahia Honda Bridge could not be built with the standard piers, girders or steel deck plates. Therefore, it was designed with Steel Through-Truss Sections. The Bahia Honda Bridge connected Bahia Honda Key and West Summerland Key.
After the 1935 Hurricane and the decision, not to rebuild the Florida East Coast Railway in the Keys, the Right of Way was sold to the Florida DOT and parts of both the ROW and the especially the Bridges (which could be salvaged) were used for US Route 1. The Highway was actually built atop the Bridge Trusses.

Hall i' th' Wood is an early 16th-century manor house in Bolton, Greater Manchester, England. It is a Grade I listed building and is currently used as a museum by Bolton Metropolitan Borough Council. It was the manor house for the moiety of the Tonge with Haulgh township held by the Brownlows in the 16th century. The original building is timber framed and has a stone flagged roof; there were later additions to the house, built from stone, in 1591 and 1648. The name represents "Hall in the Wood' spoken in the local regional English dialect.
The house was not used as a gentry house but rather given over to multiple occupation by families engaged in industry. Four (previously five) separate dwellings can be identified, each with its own entrance and staircase. One part was let to Samuel Crompton during the 18th century, where he designed and built the first spinning mule. About 1779, Crompton succeeded in producing a mule-jenny, a machine which spun yarn suitable for use in the manufacture of muslin. It was known as the muslin wheel or the Hall i' th' Woodwheel[5] from the name of the house.
Hall i' th' Wood was bought by William Lever (later Lord Leverhulme) in 1899 and was restored by Jonathan Simpson and Edward Ould. Lever gave the house to the Corporation of Bolton in 1900.
An episode of the television programme Most Haunted was filmed in the hall in 2008.
Currently obsessed with Haunted, Jealous, Blue, Grown Woman, Partition, Blow....ugh, soo many great tracks + videos.
The Lyadski Gate (Ukrainian: Лядські ворота) is a monument built in 2001 on Maidan Nezalezhnosti (Independence Square), the central square of the Ukrainian capital Kyiv. The current incarnation of the gate was built as recently as 2001, as a memorial to the medieval city gate which stood on this spot in medieval times. It was then the main entrance to the city from the south-east, and it was here that Batu Khan concentrated his attacks during his sack of the city in 1240.
The gate is decorated with a coat of arms with a bow and two arrows and has been crowned by a bronze sculpture of Archangel Michael, the patron saint of the city of Kyiv, since 2002. The sculptor was Anatoly Kushch, who was also the sculptor of the Independence Monument of Ukraine and the fountain of the city's founders, which both also stand on the Maidan.
The Maidan is located on Khreshchatyk, Kyiv’s premier street. The square has been known under many different names, and since the start of Ukraine’s independence movement in 1990, has been the traditional place for political rallies, including four large-scale radical protest campaigns: the 1990 student “Revolution on Granite”, the 2001 “Ukraine without Kuchma”, the 2004 Orange Revolution, and the 2013–14 Euromaidan. The Maidan is also a regular site for non-political displays and events.
The current form of the Maidan dates almost entirely from the late 1940s and 1950s: the buildings on the square were demolished during the Red Army’s booby-trapping of the city centre before the Nazis captured the city in the First Battle of Kiev in September 1941, and therefore this part of the city had to be rebuilt from scratch after liberation in 1943. It was rebuilt in Stalinist Empire Style, and was mostly done at a time when the Soviets were still building showcase high-quality architecture in key locations, before building quality collapsed later in the 1950s. The square was again substantially rebuilt in 1976-7 due to the construction of the metro and then again in the years after 2001.
The glass dome on the left of the shot dates from this period; the Globus shopping centre opened in the early years of the 21st Century and replaced an old concrete underground shopping passage of the type that can still be seen around many Kyiv metro stations.

Mexico City is currently growing as a major financial centre within Central America, the airline's flag-carrier, Aeromexico is slowly growing as an international carrier thanks to its growing fleet of Boeing 787-8 Dreamliners operating alongside a small fleet of Boeing 777's which are likely to be replaced by Boeing 787-9 Dreamliners.
Aeromexico currently operates a daily flight into London Heathrow using Boeing 787-8 Dreamliners, competing with British Airways who operate Boeing 747-400's between the 2 cities. The airline's fleet of Boeing 787's stands at 8, all of which on the Boeing 787-8 with one more example left on-order, as well as an order for 6 Boeing 787-9's plus 4 options.
November Nine Six One Alpha Mike was the first Dreamliner delivered new to Aeromexico in August 2013 on lease from AerCap, and she is powered by 2 General Electric GEnx-1B engines.

The title is the motto of the BBC.
The BBC was founded in 1922. I was awoken this morning with thoughts of how the BBC should be funded, the purpose of the national broadcaster, and what do I want from it. And then, how much is it worth to me.
These days , I only listen to Radio 3. The news programs I find selective and usually shallow. The regional channels are irrelevant to me. I don't watch TV. The World Service is OK. I seldom use the website.
Currently TV owners pay an annual licence fee that generates 3 billion Pounds of revenue to the BBC. Their annual budget is about 5 billion.
The radio has been a lifelong friend. There was a radio licence in UK until 1971. How much would that be today if reintroduced?
Should I just switch to Radio New Zealand Concert and be done with it?!
I wonder how other countries fund their Public Service Broadcasters.
Thurso Castle is a ruined 19th-century castle, located in Thurso, Caithness, in the Scottish Highlands. The current castle ruins date to 1872; A large part was demolished in 1952, although there has been a fortress here since the 12th century. Part of the castle is still habitable and remains a home of the Viscounts Thurso. [Wikipedia].
Most Americans have stood with Ukraine for many years, including the last three years, since the Russian invasion. This is a simple message, but it means a lot to the Ukrainian people.
So I currently own 4 dolls Blake my Rheia, Dawn, my Ante, Reign my Chloe and Bastion my Mirwen.
I plan to own Dezzy my Celine, Dutch my nanuri14 and Robyn my Feeple Rona.
I went from owning a Small collection of 4 to a collection of 7 and it's killing me because my room is very small and I don't want to have a huge collection of dolls.
So I instantly thought of who to sell. Dawn wasn't having it for she was my cute little girl who I didn't any problems with. Reign but this face he gave me today told me no as well. And Bastion and Blake also shook their heads.
I guess I am just going to have to deal with owning seven dolls. I never felt so content with owning dolls to the point that I will allow more to come in.
How do you guys deal with something like this?
Currently open challenges in Our Daily Challenge include "DOMESTIC BLISS" and "A BUILDING INTERIOR". This corner of my kitchen is comfortable, functional, and beautiful in my eyes. So, I think it is appropriate to both challenges.
Well actually I am re-reading The kept woman from Karin Slaughter.
Normally I wait reading the latest Slaughter so I won't have to wait so long for the next book ;)
But this one I read the day it was released because Karin was coming to our country for a meet and greet. I loved it, the meet and greet and the book!
I read it twice actually back then and now I'm reading it for the third time.
Lamp, rug, chair, planters, miniature book, dress, scarf and tights are made by me.
The little statues I found in our home, the glasses used to belong to a Ken and the shoes are from Obitsu.
As requested. All of my current models. I have donated 2 Stueys, 1 Lee, and 1 Panzer 3 to our local museum and the Pacific Museum back home in Texas. :D I have taken apart a few models that Austin rarely played with. The SdKfz 234-4, the captured C15 transport truck, the Renault UEs, the A13 Cruiser, the Achilles, the Locust (still built but without turret), the Type 97 Chi-Ha, the M3 White Scout Car (being re-designed), the WC52 and WC56 all were taken apart for "the good of our collection." :D They all contributed to our modern military models.
LEGO modeling has become a big hobby for my son and I. It has helped me through some rough times recently. Helps get my mind off other things. I have met a lot of nice people here on FLickr and other places. Thanks to everyone who helped Austin and I along the way. :D If I left anyone out, sorry.
Honestly my doll head rack is finally reduced to the doll head experiments and parts I deemed too good to just chuck out since the rest of my heads finally got the bodies that suit them lol.
Also a lot of these heads already got replacements by better condition dolls so I'm really fighting myself on letting them go...
i want you always beside me, i need you & love you more than what i have in the current.! DHGB<3

With 'a big virgin atlantic thank you' titles.
Named: "Sleeping Beauty - Rejuvenated".
First flown with the Airbus test registration F-WWCE, this aircraft was delivered to a lessor and leased to Virgin Atlantic Airways as G-VNAP in Feb-05. It was returned to the lessor in Mar-15, painted all white and stored at Lourdes, France. 2.5 years later, in Nov-17, it was leased to Virgin Atlantic Airways again to cover for their Boeing 787's taken out of service because of Rolls Royce Trent engine problems. After major maintenence at Manila, Philippines, it was repainted in Virgin's full livery, with 'a big virgin atlantic thank you' titles, at Manchester in Feb-18. Current (Sep-18).
This is my recent setup optimized for doing my research. I mainly use OS X, but I also run Windows for embedded system programming and Linux for running Simics VM. All of them are virtualized within VMWare Fusion.
In the photo, there are four screens but are actually only two Macs on the 72-inch wide desk. I found this setting to be useful because it's portable and the load can be balanced between the two. There are several other computers in my room for server and simulation purposes.
All the computers are synchronized using Unison, and controlled by a single set of keyboard and mouse using Synergy. I modified the source code of Synergy so that it supports Magic Mouse perfectly (the original version uses some deprecated APIs which doesn't support pixel-based scrolling).
Thanks to the GoodReader application on iPad, I can read all the books and papers even when I'm on the go. I need to hide the annoying iPad's white USB cable, but the iPad's power issue makes the problem a bit difficult to solve.
