SWISS HOUSE - the in 1843 by Karl Etzel for Count Maurice II Fries built country house is a particularly characteristical and early example of the villa type of the Swiss house, which is determined by visibly used, natural materials (in reference to rural building types).

The spa town with its Biedermeier flair and a settlement tradition dating back to the Neolithic Age is first mentioned in the 12th Century as Fesoloue (before 1136 and about 1180). The residence was a water castle, whose basic shape despite the alterations in the 16th and 18th Century has been preserved until the present day. The settlement was west of the castle, the most important source of income was the wine. Pfarrlich (parishly) Vöslau initially belonged to Traiskirchen, then to Gainfarn and it became in the 14th Century an independent parish. For the first time in 1324, a pastor is mentioned, as parish church served the castle chapel.
In the second half of the 13th Century the dominion was in the possession of the Viennese burgher family Pollen, then the Hailpeck family and from 1402 owned by the knight Jobst Hauser and his descendants. 1483 castle and location have been devastated by the Hungarians under King Matthias Corvinus. Around 1500, the Theschütz family acquired the dominion in 1502 becoming free ownership. Under the Theschütz, Vöslau became a center of the Reformation. In the Services of the now Protestant parish the population from all over the area took part. Emperor Ferdinand II in 1621 forbade the citizens of Baden the "leakage" to the preachers in Vöslau.
In the course of the recatholicization in 17th Century, the parish again became a daughter of Gainfarn. 1773 the Counts of Fries acquired the dominion, losing it in 1826 after its bankruptcy, but in 1837 it could be bought back. Johann von Fries, since 1783 empire count, brought it as an entrepreneur and financier to great wealth and had the castle by the court architect Ferdinand Hohenberg von Hetzendorf, the creator of the Gloriette and the Castle Theatre in Schönbrunn and the Fries'schen city palace in Vienna (Palais Pallavicini), rebuilt in the style of early classicism. The castle became pathbreaking for the dissemination of this style in Austria .
With the discovery of thermal springs in the early 19th Century began the great age of Vöslau. The sources had been since the end of the 16th Century used for the mill operation, at the latest, since the mid-18th Century was bathed in the warm "Mühlwasser (mill water)". 1787, for the first time a bath tube is mentioned. 1816 was purchased by Count Moritz von Fries I. the Mühlareal (mill area) together with the pond with the "swelling mineral" water and he had built a swimming pool with bath house, pond and garden (1820-1822). The spa became "modern", the prominent spa guests in the 19th Century included Ludwig van Beethoven, Johann Strauss, Josef Helmesberger, Gustav Walter, Ludwig Anzengruber and Ignaz Franz Castelli. Leopold II of Tuscany in 1859 chose the health resort to the scene of his abdication in favor of his son Ferdinand.
Through the in 1833 by the then owner John of Geymüllerfounded founded worsted yarn factory, Vöslau had also gained economic importance. In the 1840s, Schlumberger began here with the production of sparkling wine and red wine. Both products made Vöslau world famous.
The bath has been remodeled from 1869 to 1873 according to plans of Theophil Hansen to the current thermal complex and expanded in 1880, he also built the Kursalon. On the slopes of the Harzberg and "Am Hügel" emerged the exclusive residential areas, typical of the period of promoterism. 1870 was built the of Moritz II and Flora von Fries donated Neo-Romanesque-Gothic church after the plans of Franz and Camillo Sitte and Vöslau again was elevated to parish. 1887 the Fries sold the bath to the community and in 1901 the castle to the Bohemian Coal Baron Moritz Ritter von Gutmann. He was the last private owner of the castle, which now houses the Town Hall.
At the beginning of the 20th Century the location got the Kurstatut (cure statute) (1904). Under the long-standing Mayor Rudolf Frimmel (1920-1934, 1945-1960) was rebuilt in the 1920s the spa, received Vöslau 1928 the attribute "Bad" and in 1954 was raised to town.
Bad Vöslau connects a town twinning with Neu-Isenburg in Germany.

Made this leaf shaped pendant as an example for people who might want to make a pendant with the cane and dewdrop combo I'm putting together.
This is what it looks like straight from the oven, so to speak - matte, no sanding or buffing.
Here is another example of the amazing plasterwork that one finds on the undersides of domes in some Islamic countries.
What could have been a smooth, rounded surface has instead become a display of the most intricate geometric designs, in which shapes morph into other shapes across the expanse of the dome.
The only natural comparison I can think of would be the interior section of a pomegranate when the seeds have been removed. Honeycombs are another natural object that come to mind, but the geometry of honeycombs is more consistent than the underside of a dome such as the one shown here.

Trying your patience on hedging issues? I'll move on as my garden starts blooming. honest!
So this shows a cherry, pine and laurel hedge all fighting for the same light. The laurel has lost on the interior, where homeowners see it. The pine is providing no privacy at the lower level, and shading the home, also blocking light (pine is generally to the south of the house, so hedge is generally at the home's west side. I would clear all the shrubs/trees to start over, though it would be bright/hot on summer days.There would be a view over the valley and light in the wintertime.

Fatherhood was achieved on Father’s Day and will follow suit each day henceforth with a continuous movement where Fit Fathers commune for the benefit of their kids. We share and learn from one another to enhance positive experiences for our families, friends and community.
Naturally, Father’s Day in the Maryland, DC and Virginia area was ignited the “Fit Fathers” way for the 4th year in a row with exercise, laughter, dance, music and fun. We bring dads and father figures together annually to demonstrate the importance of being health conscious and leading by example through positive, nutritional choices. Hype for the event was built from engaging social media campaigns and coverage from Fox 5 DC, News Channel 8, CBS Radio, Radio One, SiriusXM, Black Enterprise and a host of other elite media outlets. Additionally, with $2,500 in prizes at stake for our fitness challenges, over 500 attendees came to the celebration ready for action which resulted in an eventful day.
Another example of MIT's robotics work, this time its a robotic arm mounted on a caterpillar track body. Both can be pre-programmed or controlled on the fly. Work like this has been put to use in everything from bomb disposal robots to the Mars probes.

"The Cathedral Church of Christ, Blessed Mary the Virgin and St Cuthbert of Durham, commonly known as Durham Cathedral and home of the Shrine of St Cuthbert, is a cathedral in the city of Durham, England. It is the seat of the Bishop of Durham, the fourth-ranked bishop in the Church of England hierarchy. The present cathedral was begun in 1093, replacing the Saxon 'White Church', and is regarded as one of the finest examples of Norman architecture in Europe. In 1986 the cathedral and Durham Castle were designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Durham Cathedral holds the relics of Saint Cuthbert, transported to Durham by Lindisfarne monks in the ninth century, the head of Saint Oswald of Northumbria, and the remains of the Venerable Bede. In addition, its library contains one of the most complete sets of early printed books in England, the pre-Dissolution monastic accounts, and three copies of Magna Carta.
From 1080 until 1836 the Bishop of Durham held the powers of an Earl Palatine, exercising military and civil leadership as well as religious leadership, in order to protect the English Border with Scotland. The cathedral walls formed part of Durham Castle, the chief seat of the Bishop of Durham.
There are daily Church of England services at the cathedral, with the Durham Cathedral Choir singing daily except Mondays and when the choir is on holiday. It is a major tourist attraction and received 694,429 visitors in 2018.
Durham (/ˈdʌrəm/, locally /ˈdɜrəm/) is a cathedral city and the county town of County Durham in North East England. The city lies on the River Wear, to the south-west of Sunderland, south of Newcastle upon Tyne and to the north of Darlington. Founded over the final resting place of St Cuthbert, its Norman cathedral became a centre of pilgrimage in medieval England. The cathedral and adjacent 11th-century castle were designated a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1986. The castle has been the home of Durham University since 1832. HM Prison Durham is also located close to the city centre. City of Durham is the name of the civil parish.
The name "Durham" comes from the Celtic element "dun", signifying a hill fort, and the Old Norse "holme", which translates to island. The Lord Bishop of Durham takes a Latin variation of the city's name in his official signature, which is signed "N. Dunelm". Some attribute the city's name to the legend of the Dun Cow and the milkmaid who in legend guided the monks of Lindisfarne carrying the body of Saint Cuthbert to the site of the present city in 995 AD. Dun Cow Lane is said to be one of the first streets in Durham, being directly to the east of Durham Cathedral and taking its name from a depiction of the city's founding etched in masonry on the south side of the cathedral. The city has been known by a number of names throughout history. The original Nordic Dun Holm was changed to Duresme by the Normans and was known in Latin as Dunelm. The modern form Durham came into use later in the city's history. The north-eastern historian Robert Surtees chronicled the name changes in his History and Antiquities of the County Palatine of Durham but states that it is an "impossibility" to tell when the city's modern name came into being.
Durham is likely to be Gaer Weir in Armes Prydein, derived from Brittonic cajr meaning "an enclosed, defensible site" (c.f. Carlisle; Welsh caer) and the river-name Wear." - info from Wikipedia.

Another VR example entered by David Fricker (North Somerset Coaches) is this Southern National example. Can't recall this doing any duties in the day but it might have done.
This VR2 started life in 1977 with Western National, at the time as an open topper. Southern National purchased it in 1983 and renamed it 'Thomas Hardy' (It's previous name was 'Golden Hind') and then passed to First Southern National in 2001. Two years later it was moved to First Hampshire and Dorset.
