The cliff was formed during the ice age, approximately 10,000 years ago, when the edges of the glacier reached the cliff. The water from the glacier froze in the crevices of the mountain and eventually broke off large, angular blocks, which were later carried away with the glacier. This is the cause of the angular shape of the plateau. Along the plateau itself there continues to be a deep crack. Due to these cracks, the plateau will at some point fall down
The Cloudgate sculpture in Millennium Park takes a new slant on Chicago architecture, e.g. the Standard Oil and Prudential buildings.
Sold to me as a form of E.glutinosa, which it almost certainly isn't because that species is deciduous.
Am I right in thinking though that some deciduous trees have evergreen juvenile stages? I'm sure I've seen that somewhere.
It's not flowered yet so that's something to look forward to.
Las Bardenas Reales de Navarra son un paraje natural semidesértico de unas 42.000 ha que se extiende por el sureste de Navarra (España).
Sus suelos son de arcillas, yesos y areniscas y han sido erosionados por el agua y el viento creando formas sorprendentes en las que destacan los barrancos, las mesetas de estructura tabular y los cerros solitarios, llamados cabezos.
Las Bardenas carecen de núcleos urbanos, su vegetación es muy escasa y las múltiples corrientes de agua que surcan el territorio tienen un caudal marcadamente irregular, permaneciendo secos la mayor parte del año. La altitud oscila entre los 280 y los 659 msnm.
Las Bardenas se sitúan en un punto equidistante entre la cordillera Pirenaica y la Ibérica. Las Bardenas Reales, antigua posesión real, no forman parte de ningún término municipal y son propiedad de la Comunidad Foral de Navarra. Veintidós municipios y entidades (los "congozantes") forman la Comunidad de Bardenas Reales, una entidad de Derecho Público encargada del aprovechamiento del paraje.
En la actualidad, la mayor parte de las Bardenas Reales se encuentran protegidas mediante la figura de un parque natural de 39.274 ha desde el año 1999. Anteriormente, en 1986, dos parajes de las Bardenas, el Rincón del Bú y la Caídas de la Negra, habían sido declaradas reservas naturales. Desde el 7 de noviembre de 2000 el conjunto fue declarado Reserva de la Biosfera.

Anish Kapoor in Pitzhanger Manor, optical tricks with mirrors and metal
Anish Kapoor
(March to August 2019)
Within the newly restored gallery, with its three circular skylights, Kapoor’s sculptures challenge our traditional notion of form and space by disorientating the viewer and transforming their surroundings.
These sculptures echo Soane’s complex use of mirrors and light and will enable visitors to Pitzhanger to see Soane’s architecture from a fresh perspective.
[Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery]
Pitzhanger Manor was bought by Sir John Soane (1753-1837) in 1800. He demolished most of George Dance's building but retained the southern extension, replacing the main block with one of his own design. In the same year Soane employed John Haverfield to produce new designs for the grounds which were delivered by September 1800 (guidebook). The new mansion was used to display Soane's art collection and for entertaining, his Lincoln's Inn house being retained as the family residence. By 1809 Soane was only occasionally at Pitzhanger and in June of that year he instructed James Christie to sell the house and the estate. Once again the property passed through a series of owners until, in 1843, it was sold to the politician Spencer Walpole and became the home of his four unmarried sisters-in-law, the daughters of the Rt Hon Spencer Perceval. Prior to the death aged ninety-five of the last-surviving Perceval sister, Frederika, in May 1900, her nephew, Sir Spencer Walpole, had begun negotiations with Ealing District Council for the sale of the house and the estate. The sale negotiations were completed early in January 1900 and, following Miss Perceval's death, alterations were carried out. The then Borough Surveyor, Charles Jones, was responsible for the designs for the alterations to the house and grounds and in April 1902 the building was opened as a public library. At the time of the sale, the property was variously referred to as Manor House Park (Middlesex County Times, 19 May 1900) and Perceval Park (Middlesex County Times, 28 July 1900). The name Walpole Park was adopted after communications between the last owner and Ealing Borough Council towards the end of 1900.
Further major alterations to the library building were completed by 1940 and then, in 1984, the Central Library was moved to new premises in Ealing. The following year a continuing programme of restoration and repair to both the mansion and the grounds began. The restored manor house was reopened as a museum and centre for cultural events in the late 1990s. The grounds continue (2000) in the ownership of the London Borough of Ealing.

Hoy he acudido a la inauguración de los actos que forma parte de la celebración del 90 aniversario del Campus de la Ciudad Universitaria, uno de los más importantes de España.
Me ha producido una gran satisfacción celebrar este aniversario en mi universidad, en mi casa, en un entorno calificado como Bien de Interés Cultural, que forma parte de nuestro legado histórico y que debemos cuidar.
Durante la visita he podido ver la exposición de las Maquetas Históricas de la Ciudad Universitaria de Madrid y he reiterado el total compromiso del gobierno de la Comunidad de Madrid, que presido, con las universidades públicas madrileñas
¡Felicidades por esos 90 años, Ciudad Universitaria!

Percept: There is just something calming about splashes. The smooth, round form of the water is really soothing and refreshing looking, while the red stone in the water prevents the shot from looking too blue.

Compañías participantes en el Auto Show de Los Ángeles como Apple y Microsoft presentan una serie de aplicaciones informáticas para coches que cambiarán radicalmente la forma de viajar.
Compañías como Apple y Microsoft han presentado durante el Auto Show de Los Ángeles, que se celebra del 21 al 30 de noviembre, una serie de aplicaciones informáticas para coches que harán los viajes mucho más cómodos.
Según Mary Ann de Lares Norris, director ejecutivo de Oblong Industries, compañía especializada en interfaces innovadores, los conductores podrán acceder a la información en cualquier lugar del mundo. “Viajar con los niños puede ser difícil, pero si ellos estén ocupados por la experiencia educativa del mundo exterior, van a decir ‘Eh, mamá, ¿sabes que…?” en lugar de ‘¿Cuándo llegamos?'”, aseguró Lares Norris.
Microsoft trabaja en la creación de un ordenador para coches capaz de comprender al conductor y ‘leer’ constantemente sus hábitos y peculiaridades. El dispositivo podrá conocer la personalidad del propietario o encontrar la gasolinera más cercana o barata. Este tipo de posibilidades ahorrarán tiempo al conductor, como destacó Bryan Biniak, vicepresidente global de Microsoft.
El interfaz no solo ofrecerá a los niños que se sienten en los asientos de atrás la información que quieran, sino que también reaccionará a sus acciones. Por ejemplo, si detecta gritos, el sistema cambiará de música, hará menos perceptible el sonido o incluso contará bromas para divertir a los niños, anunció Biniak.
Además, las aplicaciones ayudarán a los padres a planear actividades para sus hijos durante el viaje. El ordenador escogerá películas que se prolongarán durante toda la ruta.
Apple tiene a punto su nuevo sistema Apple CarPlay, mientras Google presentó su Android Auto API (software informativo que se integrará en el Hyundai Sonata en 2015). Este software permitirá usar un sistema de voz interactiva en Google maps, buscadores de Internet y envío de mensajes.

The 10th edition of the State X New Forms festival brought us old heros like the Orb and Biosphere and new talents like The Future's Dust and Xenia Rubinos. And then there was the most peculiar performance by Hyperdubs Dean Blunt.
