This combination lamp/clock/cigarette lighter is multi-tasking its little heart out. From the Venetian blind shade down to the working cigarette lighter in the receiver, all its features still work (and I've got a burn in my palm to prove it). The only thing it doesn't do is function as a telephone. This wonderful lamp is the antithesis of the major tenet of Bauhaus design: form follows function. This one's got great form, but its function ran off into three different directions. From www.tackytreasures.com/

Colonial Williamsburg is the historic district of the independent city of Williamsburg, Virginia. It consists of many of the buildings that, from 1699 to 1780, formed colonial Virginia's capital. The capital straddled the boundary of two of the original shires of Virginia, James City Shire (now James City County), and Charles River Shire (now York County). For most of the 18th century, Williamsburg was the center of government, education and culture in the Colony of Virginia.
Colonial Williamsburg is meant to be an interpretation of a Colonial American city, with exhibits including dozens of authentic or accurately-recreated colonial houses and relating to American Revolutionary War history. Prominent buildings in Colonial Williamsburg include the Raleigh Tavern, the Capitol, The Governor's Palace, and Bruton Parish Church. However, rather than simply an effort to preserve antiquity, the combination of extensive restoration and thoughtful recreation of the entire colonial town facilitates envisioning the atmosphere and understanding the ideals of 18th century American revolutionary leaders. It was here that Thomas Jefferson, Patrick Henry, James Monroe, James Madison, George Wythe, Peyton Randolph, and dozens more helped mold democracy in the Commonwealth of Virginia and the United States.
The Historic Area is located just east of the College of William and Mary, founded at Middle Plantation in 1693, just prior to the establishment of the town as capital of Virginia and its renaming. The university's historic Wren Building stands at the west end of Duke of Gloucester Street.
Colonial Williamsburg is a major source of tourism to Williamsburg, as well as a touchstone for many world leaders and heads of state, including U.S. Presidents. The United States hosted the first World Economic Conference at Colonial Williamsburg in 1983. It is the centerpiece of the surrounding Historic Triangle of Virginia area, which has become a popular tourist destination for visitors domestic and foreign. The other two points of the Historic Triangle are Jamestown and Yorktown.

Early in the 20th century, the restoration and recreation of Colonial Williamsburg, one of the largest historic restorations ever undertaken, was championed by the Reverend Dr. W.A.R. Goodwin and the patriarch of the Rockefeller family, John D. Rockefeller, Jr., along with the active participation of his wife, Abby Aldrich Rockefeller, who wanted to celebrate the patriots and the early history of the United States.
Many of the missing Colonial structures were reconstructed on their original sites during the 1930s. Other structures were restored to the best estimates of how they would have looked during the eighteenth century, with all traces of later buildings and improvements removed. Dependency structures and animals help complete the ambiance. Most buildings are open for tourists to look through, with the exception of several buildings that serve as residences for Colonial Williamsburg employees.
Notable structures include the large Capitol and the Governor's Palace, each carefully recreated and landscaped as closely as possible to original 18th century specifications, as well as Bruton Parish Church and the Raleigh Tavern.
The major goal of the Restoration was not to merely preserve or recreate the physical environment of the colonial period, but to facilitate education about the origins of the idea of America, which was conceived during many decades before the American Revolution.
In this environment, Colonial Williamsburg strives to tell the story of how diverse peoples, having different and sometimes conflicting ambitions, evolved into a society that valued liberty and equality.
Just recieved Luke W's new book, can't wait to read it.
If the design+printing quality is typical of Rosenfeld books, I'll be buying many more (and maybe trying to write for them).
Out in the expanse of desert forming the backlot, there are two immense castles spread kilometres apart. Improbably architecture, with multiple keeps in a variety of styles. I'm all alone out here, and it feels more than a little creepy.

Benji & Fede, ovvero il duo formato da Benjamin Mascolo e Federico Rossi, due ragazzi 20enni che si sono conosciuti tramite Facebook e hanno iniziato a collaborare alla fine del 2011 dopo aver visto le rispettive perfomances su Youtube.
Nonostante le distanze (Benji all’epoca viveva in Australia, Fede in Italia) i due ragazzi si sono impegnati da subito a lavorare insieme, tramite internet. Era l’inizio di un sodalizio artistico. Alla fine del 2012 Benji ritorna in Italia ed il duo comincia a registrare in studio canzoni inedite e cover.
Benji e Fede si impegnano subito anche in ambito sociale, in qualità di fondatori del gruppo “Giovani Artisti per l’Emilia” e compositori della canzone “Dare di Più” in favore delle persone colpite dal sisma emiliano del 2012. Un progetto in cui Benji e Fede si sono immersi anima e corpo presentandolo a più riprese in radio, su giornali e televisioni, fino a condividerlo live su svariati palchi, insieme anche ad artisti già affermati quali Emis Killa, i Finley, Mondo Marcio e Povia.
Nell’Aprile del 2013 sono stati contattati dalla Barley Arts di Milano per aprire i concerti di tutte le date del tour italiano di Conor Maynard, esibendosi, tra le tante tappe, anche all’Atlantico Live! di Roma, ai Magazzini Generali di Milano e al Vox Club di Modena. Un percorso, quello dei live, che da sempre contraddistingue il cammino dei due giovani artisti: l’energia che riescono a sprigionare sul palco è a dir poco travolgente. E così, anche durante la seconda parte del 2013 e la primavera del 2014, non sono mancati gli appuntamenti dal vivo: dall’Alcatraz di Milano fino al tour completo del Radio Bruno Estate, condividendo il palco con artisti del calibro di Arisa, Modà, Dear Jack, Luca Carboni, Stadio, Noemi, Moreno, Annalisa, Giusy Ferreri, Dolcenera, Francesco Renga, Tiromancino, Paolo Belli e tanti altri ancora.
Parallelamente si è intensificata l’attività in studio. Dopo aver pubblicato su youtube i primi 3 singoli con relativi video autoprodotti e aver riscosso un ottimo successo di visualizzazioni a suon di centinaia di migliaia di click, Benji e Fede sono ora impegnati a comporre il primo album di canzoni inedite, scritto, come sempre, interamente da loro.
Espacios Bioseguros
“Necesitamos tomar medidas preventivas de forma urgente bajo el paradigma del uso de las mejores tecnologías”
Luis de la Fuente Ramírez, presidente de ABQ, presentó Espacios Bioseguros junto al decano del Colegio de Biólogos de la Comunidad Autónoma de Madrid (COBCM), Ángel Fernández Ipar, como “un concepto en el que destacamos una serie de medidas de prevención para la población general por medio de un conjunto de soluciones tecnológicas para prevenir y minimizar los riesgos de contagio en, por ejemplo, espacios interiores, medios de transporte y otros, con el objetivo de controlar los agentes contaminantes de una forma eficaz y sostenible desde el punto de vista medioambiental y económico”. Por otro lado, “los profesionales debemos de controlar de forma eficaz los riesgos de contagio, tanto en las superficies como en el empleo de los materiales de trabajo que utilizamos todos los días”, matizó Ramírez a lo largo de su exposición.
Con motivo del acto de presentación de las Olimpiadas de Biología de la Comunidad Autónoma de Madrid, los responsables de ABQ dieron a conocer los objetivos de la entidad, así como el proyecto Espacios Bioseguros.
De esta manera, ABQ, entidad europea especializada en bioseguridad, “desea llevar a cabo un protocolo de implantación de un certificado de calidad para garantizar el Espacio Bioseguro en las empresas e instituciones con un 80% de éxito en todos los análisis que hagamos a partir de ahora”, indicaron los responsables de la asociación.
Recordemos que “ABQ ha logrado seleccionar, junto a los colegios de biólogos de las distintas Comunidades Autónomas, soluciones eficientes que han sido contrastadas por la NASA”, concluyó Ramírez.
De esta manera, la asociación ABQ participó en las Olimpiadas de Biología de la Comunidad de Madrid, organizadas por el Colegio de Biólogos de la Comunidad de Madrid (COBCM) con el patrocinio de la Consejería de Educación y la colaboración de la Universidad Complutense, Universidad Autónoma y Editorial Santillana.

www.asociacionabq.org/index.php/es/inicio/61-convenio-con...
ABQ, entidad sin ánimo de lucro que se encargará de buscar soluciones para todos los sectores de la actividad profesional, es una asociación que propone y busca, por medio del debate, la transmisión del conocimiento e información precisa sobre determinadas amenazas para el sector humano, sobre todo con las nuevas bacterias y el tratamiento y análisis de casos concretos. Luis de la Fuente Ramírez, presidente, reconoce que “el esfuerzo no ha hecho más que empezar”. En la actualidad, representará los intereses de los colectivos allegados por la firma de Convenios de Colaboración en materia de divulgación, formación y colaboración en la redacción de estudios e informes especializados.
Objetivos ABQ:
1º.- Concienciar a la sociedad sobre los riesgos que les afectan en materia de bioseguridad en su contexto universal. Riesgos que afectan a todos los espacios públicos donde la gente interacciona físicamente entre sí y la necesidad, por ello, de generar “Espacios Bioseguros” donde estos riesgos sean minimizados.
2º.- Encontrar, evaluar y difundir a la sociedad las mejores técnicas y/o tecnologías disponibles para minimizar dichos riesgos. Dichas técnicas y/o tecnologías una vez encontradas deberán ser evaluadas por los comités científico-técnicos formados expertos de la comunidad científica.

The station buffet in Disentis in its current form with the kiosk has existed since around 1990. Right on platform 1. But only the Glacier Express trains run there today. From around 1960, the front part with the kiosk was there. It is not known whether it was also a restaurant. Previously, there was a small kiosk from the time when the Rhaetian Railway line was opened in 1912 and in 1926 when the Matterhorn Gotthard Railway began operations. The outdoor seating remains even in winter. For sunny days. Switzerland, January 26, 2025. (1/4)

The White-throated Sparrow comes in two color forms: white-crowned and tan-crowned. The two forms are genetically determined, and they persist because individuals almost always mate with a bird of the opposite morph. Males of both color types prefer females with white stripes, but both kinds of females prefer tan-striped males. White-striped birds are more aggressive than tan-striped ones, and white-striped females may be able to outcompete their tan-striped sisters for tan-striped males.
Although they look nothing alike and aren’t particularly closely related, the White-throated Sparrow and the Dark-eyed Junco occasionally mate and produce hybrids. The resulting offspring look like grayish, dully marked White-throated Sparrows with white outer tail feathers.
White-throated Sparrows typically nest on or near the ground. Occasional nests are built up to 15 feet off the ground in conifers. Usually, these nests are second attempts after a pair has had a ground nest robbed by a predator.
The oldest recorded White-throated Sparrow was 9 years 8 months old.
