The summit of Crich Hill is reputed to have been the site of a Beacon Fire, which signalled the sighting of the Spanish Armada in the English Channel in 1588. It is believed that after the thrashing the Spanish received from Drake, his ships and the good old English weather, it was again used to celebrate the victory. In 1988 this most famous naval victory was again celebrated on its 400th anniversary with a new Beacon Post and Brazier being built and in 2002 it was again rebuilt as a cairn and brazier to commemorate HM The Queen's Golden Jubilee.
In 1734 there were a number of small lime kilns on the Hill and the public footpath which runs across the Hill to Crich is believed to have been used by Salt Merchants who packed the salt on horses or mules, transporting it southwards from the Cheshire area.
THE TOWER
The first record of any tower type structure is during the reign of King George III (1760) when a wooden tower was erected to provide both a landmark and a place from which to take in some of the best views available. It is thought that this tower was erected to mark his accession to the Throne. Owing to its wooden construction in such an exposed area, it only lasted about 25 years before being demolished. In 1788, Francis Hurt paid the princely sum of 210 to have a conical limestone tower with a wooden top constructed on the site of the old tower. By about 1843 the conical tower was in such a poor state of repair that a decision was taken to rebuild and in 1849 some of the stones of this conical tower were used to build the base of the new circular tower that was built from grit stone.
The circular tower was opened in 1851 (the year of the Great Exhibition) and it had a stone stairway winding up inside. An engraved tablet set in the wall at the top showed that the tower was 955 feet above sea level.
It could be said that this tower was the forerunner of The Sherwood Foresters Memorial. In June 1856 it was the scene of a jubilant crowd celebrating the end of the Crimean War (1854-56) and Sergeant Wetton of the 95th Derbyshire Regiment, a resident of Crich, was carried to the top of the Hill in a specially adapted chair as he had lost a leg at the Battle of the Alma (20th September 1854). There is no doubt that he would have been happy that the war was over, but it is certain that he would have remembered his Regimental Family and the comrades who never came home. In 1881 the 95th Derbyshire Regiment joined the 45th Nottinghamshire Regiment to form The Sherwood Foresters.
In June of 1882 there was a major landslide in the area of the quarry and this had a serious subsidence effect on the tower, lightning strikes and further minor movements of the ground in the immediate area resulted in the closing of the tower to the public for reasons of safety.

ITENERARY NOTED
The time stated within this program is approximate and walking time may differ dependent upon the group´s capability and progress and as such the guide may change the lunch spot and campsite if it is required. Each guide has his or her own preferred route and it may not follow exactly the schedule described here. However all items listed within the above schedule will be covered.
Trek conditions also vary according to the season. In the dry season ( May - September) the trail can be very dusty and hot in the day time, in the wet season (Octomber - March) it can be slippery and muddy and during the shoulder season the conditions can be variable. All year round in the mountains the stone sliding can happen at any time, particularly after heavy rains. Salkantay-Trek takes no responsibility for trail condition.
This Trek is adventurous and challenging experience, crossing several high passes and some rivers do not have a substantial bridge and can be dangerous to cross in periods of heavy rain. This region is not frequently visited by tourists, therefore tourist infrastructure is limited. Visitors should be aware that things change, or may not go to plan. This is all part of the adventure! We can change the date of your train ticket to the following day. Hotels costs and costs associated with returning to Machu Picchu the following day are additional to trek costs. Please also note that your entry ticket to Machu Picchu is valid for one day only, if you wish to visit the ruins on a second consecutive day you will need to purchase the ticket again. Please bring an open mind, flexibility and a good sense of humor.
Professor of Biological Sciences
From the Princeton Review:
“Students are much more likely to learn difficult concepts if they find the concepts fascinating,” says Craig Woodard, a professor of biological sciences at Mount Holyoke College.
In getting students excited about the topics being discussed, he brings his own enthusiasm to the classroom. He works hard keep up with the research literature in the field, and brings to the table the experiences he has as the principal investigator of a genetics/molecular biology research lab. A “very approachable and straightforward” lecturer, he also puts all his lecture notes online, makes it clear what the quizzes and tests will focus on, “tries to keep the class’s stress levels to a minimum.” “He treats all his students with respect,” and is “always willing to meet with people.”
His courses include Genetics & Molecular Biology, Eukaryotic Molecular Genetics, and Biology in the Age of the Human Genome Project, which focuses on the science behind the Human Genome Project and the ways in which it will change our lives. Most of his teaching is done in the traditional lecture style (some case studies are used), which he supplements with animations. He encourages questions and comments from students (“even when it is a large class in a lecture hall”), and students say that “he is incredibly approachable and thoughtful and is passionate about genetics.”
... but then says XHTML and CSS is the way to go, recommending Eric Meyer and Dave Shea's books. Curses to those two gents! :-D

WINTER STORM SUMMARY FOR DECEMBER 19, 2009 TO DECEMBER 20, 2009 EVENT
Synopsis
A significant Nor'easter impacted the Mid Atlantic region from Saturday December 19th through the morning of Sunday December 20th. An area of low pressure developed in the Gulf of Mexico on Friday December 18th, and this low then tracked to just east of the Carolina coast by Saturday morning December 19th. This low pressure system intensified Saturday as it continued to track northeastward along the East Coast. With ample cold air in place, snow began falling across much of the area during the pre-dawn hours of Saturday. As the low strengthened, heavier bands of snow developed and tracked through the Delmarva Peninsula and southern New Jersey. By late afternoon and evening, significant snow accumulations were occurring in these areas. Some mixing with rain occurred along the southern New Jersey coast during the afternoon, and sleet was also reported during the afternoon along the eastern shore of Maryland. Farther north, snow began during the late afternoon and persisted into the night across northern New Jersey and the Lehigh Valley in northeast Pennsylvania. Accumulating snow continued across much of the Mid Atlantic region through midnight, and light snow showers lasted across portions of central to northern New Jersey through mid-morning on Sunday December 20th. The low pressure system tracked northeast and away from the region through the remainder of Sunday.
Watches/Warnings/Advisories
A Winter Storm Watch was issued at 330 pm on Thursday December 17th for the following areas: New Castle, Kent, and Sussex in Delaware; Cecil, Kent, Queen Annes, Talbot, and Caroline in Maryland; Salem, Gloucester, Camden, Northwestern Burlington, Ocean, Cumberland, Atlantic, Cape May, and Southeastern Burlington in New Jersey; Delaware and Philadelphia in Pennsylvania. At 1012 pm on Thursday December 17th, a Winter Storm Watch was issued for the following areas: Hunterdon, Somerset, Middlesex, Western Monmouth, Eastern Monmouth, and Mercer in New Jersey; Berks, Chester, Montgomery, and Bucks in Pennsylvania. A Winter Storm Warning was issued at 440 am on Friday December 18th for the following areas: New Castle, Kent, and Sussex in Delaware; Cecil, Kent, Queen Annes, Talbot, and Caroline in Maryland; Salem, Gloucester, Camden, Northwestern Burlington, Ocean, Cumberland, Atlantic, Cape May, and Southeastern Burlington in New Jersey; Delaware and Philadelphia in Pennsylvania. Also on Friday December 18th at 440 am, a Winter Storm Watch was issued for the following areas: Sussex, Warren, and Morris in New Jersey; Carbon, Monroe, Lehigh, and Northampton in Pennsylvania. At 114 pm on Friday December 18th, a Winter Storm Warning was issued for the following areas: Hunterdon, Somerset, Middlesex, Western Monmouth, Eastern Monmouth, Mercer, Sussex, Warren, and Morris in New Jersey; Carbon, Monroe, Lehigh, Northampton, Berks, Chester, Montgomery, and Bucks in Pennsylvania.
Precipitation/Temperatures/Winds
Significant snow accumulations were recorded from this event. In fact, Philadelphia recorded its third highest snowfall ever for any single event, with 23.2 inches at the Philadelphia International Airport. Snowfall totals ranging from 20 to 25 inches extended from central Ocean and Burlington counties in New Jersey southwestward to Kent county in Maryland. Farther south, snowfall amounts of 10 to 20 inches occurred from Atlantic county New Jersey southwestward to Caroline and Talbot counties in Maryland. A band of 5 to 10 inch snowfall accumulations occurred from central Cape May county in New Jersey southward into Sussex county Delaware. North of the Philadelphia area, 10 to 15 inch accumulations were tallied from Monmouth county in New Jersey westward into northern Chester county in Pennsylvania. Meanwhile, 5 to 10 inch accumulations occurred across much of northern New Jersey and westward into Berks and Lehigh counties in Pennsylvania. Temperatures remained in the 20s for most areas throughout the event, yielding a light, fluffy snow. Winds averaging 15 to 25 mph for most areas resulted in blowing and drifting snow with reduced visibilities.
Significant Impacts/Aspects
This was the first heavy snowfall of the winter season, and as the fluffy snow fell, it quickly accumulated on roadways. Blowing and drifting snow also proved to be a challenge as road crews across the region tried to keep up with the accumulating snow. Snowfall rates of 1 to 2 inches per hour along with thunder and a few lightning strikes were reported across portions of Gloucester and western Atlantic counties. Even though the storm exited the region by Sunday morning, schools across central to southern New Jersey, as well as schools in Philadelphia, were closed on Monday because additional time was needed to clear roads and sidewalks across the area.

Complex arquitectònic que integra construccions de diferents èpoques, des de l'edat mitjana fins l'actualitat. Entre les edificacions medievals destaca una torre (de 5,6 m de diàmetre i parets de més d'1,5 m de gruix), amb una petita sala circular a l'interior; dues petites sales corbades perimetrals a la torre, comunicades amb portes de mig punt d'estil romànic; una sala absidial possiblement emprada com a baptisteri i que conserva pintures murals d'interès; l'atri de l'església, una sala rectangular que està decorada també amb pintures murals i inclou una volta d'aresta gòtica amb una clau que mostra les armes dels Espuny (senyors del castell a les darreries de l'edat mitjana i fins al segle XVII); i una sala amb una escala que condueix a la part residencial.
L'església és d'una sola nau, coberta amb volta d'aresta amb arcs torals, amb absis rectangular i cripta funerària accessible. La decoració és molt senzilla, amb una gran motllura a la imposta de la volta, finestres cegues i lesenes que continuen fins a terra els arcs torals. L'amplada aparent es veu incrementada per sis capelles a cada costat, que ocupen els espais lliures entre els contraforts de la volta. Al costat de l'epístola del presbiteri hi ha la sagristia. En la primera i la tercera capelles del costat de l'evangeli hi ha portes que comuniquen amb el pati interior del conjunt, i a les capelles dels peus portes que duen a sales annexes. Als peus de la nau hi ha un gran cor de fusta, amb accés des de la mateixa església i des de la torre rodona. A ambdós costats, damunt la sagristia i les capelles laterals, i a nivell del cor, hi ha dues fileres de petites habitacions. Darrera de l'absis de l'església hi ha un edifici de planta rectangular i dos pisos. La planta baixa de la resta de l'edifici té forma de L. L'ala que queda al cos principal de l'edifici, està força compartimentada. L'ala de ponent compta amb una gran nau que en origen era destinada a celler. A la porta, enconat, hi ha un cartell que es data a l'any 1693. A l'extrem del celler hi ha una altra edificació de dues plantes rectangulars, amb accés també des de l'exterior. La planta residencial ha estat en ús fins a l'actualitat. La primera planta ocupa dues ales de l'edifici, amb un total de vint-i-tres espais, sense comptar els passadissos. Tres són cuines que encara conserven els fogons de carbó, i hi ha quatre banys. Dos espais més es troben dins les edificacions medievals de la torre rodona, i comuniquen amb el cor de l'església. De cara al pati interior, hi ha una gran sala-menjador, i una altra sala habilitada com a menjador situada prop de l'angle nord-occidental del conjunt. Hi ha setze dormitoris, dos conserven l'estructura de cambra i alcova. Tots donen a l'exterior, amb finestra o balcó, i la major part estan coberts per voltes catalanes rebaixades, que els donen una presència imponent. Prop del menjador hi ha un gran terrat, que permet accedir a una sala, aïllada de la resta, que es troba en mal estat de conservació. Damunt de les ales residencials hi ha les golfes, on es pot observar la cara interna de les voltes que cobreixen els passadissos i les habitacions, així com les encavallades de fusta. Estan il·luminades per finestres arran de terra. Damunt l'angle de les dues naus hi ha un gran mirador amb tres arcades a cada costat curt i cinc als costats llargs. Bona part de les arcades estan tapiades. A ponent, hi ha un cos annex. Es tracta d'una porxada parcialment tapiada, amb grans arcs de mig punt de més de tres metres de llum, que donen al jardí. L'edifici compta amb dos grans jardins. Un ocupa l'espai central i l'altre queda al costat de ponent. Aquest últim inclou una avinguda envoltada de xiprers que mena fins a la bassa. Al costat de la bassa hi ha un gran pou de planta ovalada, creuat per una arcada d'origen molt probablement medieval. Per últim, a una certa distància a ponent del conjunt edificat hi ha la torre d'un antic molí de vent i les ruïnes d'un altre edifici.
La part més antiga d'aquest conjunt arquitectònic, és el que queda de la casa natal de Raimon Penyafort (1175 / 1185 - 1275), una petita fortificació depenent del castell d'Olèrdola. La majoria d'edificis que es conserven es van construir després de la canonització el sant. L'any 1602 començarem les obres de construcció del convent dominicà de Penyafort, amb una església de dimensions considerables i dues ales de planta rectangular, amb la planta baixa destinada a usos agrícoles i el pis a espais residencials. El 1707 es construí el portal de l'església, que tenia un gran retaule que va ser robat el 1815.
L'any 1835 el castell-convent va ser desamortitzat i passà a mans privades. A les darreries del segle XIX pertanyia a l'enginyer Puig i Llagostera, que va renovar l'edifici i l'adaptà com a mansió senyorial. L'any 1936 l'església va ser saquejada i se'n van cremar les relíquies que conservava. Aleshores va ser transformada en presó per a captius de guerra, mentre els propietaris i els masovers seguien emprant la part residencial. Després d'un període de deteriorament i successius canvis de mans, el conjunt va ser adquirit l'any 1980 per la senyora Gallemí. El conjunt va ser declarats el 8 de gener de 1988 Bé d'Interès Cultural, amb la categoria de Monument Nacional. L'any 1997 es creà l'Associació d'Amics del Castell de Penyafort, amb la finalitat de vetllar per la conservació física i els usos socials del castell. L'any 2002, l'ajuntament de Sta. Margarida i els Monjos adquireix el castell - convent

1937 Horch 853 Spezialroadster
Coachwork by in the style of Erdmann & Rossi
Chassis no. 853177
Engine no. 851234
•One of the most sporting German cars of its era
•Resurrection of an iconic design
•Modern five-speed manual gearbox
•Offered with a ZF 4-speed gearbox
Footnotes
Like other limited-production styles offered by German luxury manufacturers in the 1930s, Horch's impressive 853 Spezialroadster was produced in different series with styling that evolved over time. The second series included just five examples, a prototype and four subsequent 'production' versions. Built on a shortened chassis, they were distinguished by an extremely long bonnet, extending virtually to the frame of a raked 'V' windscreen in the manner of Dietrich-styled Packards; a single-blade front bumper; and a moulding running from the front of the car all the way around the rear of the body.
The result was a design that emphasised the car's front end and had virtually no rear deck, giving it the impression of massive horsepower and tremendous length. More than just a stunning example of the Horch, it was one of the most beautiful German automobiles of the era, managing to combine both the famous 'Teutonic arrogance' of which motoring writers often spoke, with a certain lithe grace. Today only four authentic Spezialroadsters of the second series are known to have survived compared with twice as many of the more famous 500 K and 540 K 'long tail' Spezialroadsters produced by Mercedes-Benz in the same era.
The example offered here was constructed by the well-known German specialists Horch Classic upon an original 853 chassis, reportedly acquired in the Ukraine where it had been in service as a farm tractor! A restoration was soon underway, which would take seven years and involve many thousands of man-hours and research with numerous archives. The design was intended to mirror the best features of both the first- and second-generation Spezialroadsters, borrowing the original design's wing-mounted driving lights and low-cut doors, with the second generation's smooth one-piece tail.
The body was crafted in the traditional fashion, using a wooden mock-up as the basis for a wooden body frame of the correct type. Great care was taken in crafting the body frame and the outer panels, then painstakingly uniting them with expert fit and finish. The body was finished in a striking and period-correct colour combination: silver with a red bonnet upper surface, while the interior was finished in leather of a period-correct grain and texture, embroidered with the Horch logo on the seats and door cards. The hood was finished with an Alcantara lining. Such was the level of detail involved in the coachwork that the dashboard, a single piece of wood, was fashioned of Canadian burr veneer, chosen because its slight reddish tinge complements the paintwork beautifully. All chromed parts were properly re-plated, while the Horch logos on the radiator and boot lid were plated with 24-carat gold.
Horch Classic noted that the frame required repair in several areas due to corrosion, while the original engine, front and rear axles, differential, and steering were all overhauled as necessary before reinstallation. The engine received new bearings, pistons, and valve guide seals, and the camshaft and valve gear were both rebuilt. Dynamometer tested for some 20 hours before installation, the engine uses a modern ignition system and transmits its power to the rear axle via a modern five-speed manual gearbox. Importantly, an original and correct Horch four-speed manual transmission has been acquired by the vendor and is offered with the car, enabling a new owner to improve the correctness and authenticity of their acquisition at little additional cost. Previously registered in Switzerland as a 'Veteran' and offered with cancelled Swiss papers, the Horch is tax-paid in that country and could easily be reregistered there should the successful purchaser so desire.
Horch Spezialroadsters are few in number, and the opportunity to acquire one so expertly crafted and true to the breathtakingly beautiful original design is a rare indeed. Built by marque experts, this car is a fitting tribute to one of the most beautiful European designs of its era, an automobile admired by enthusiasts and historians alike.
Please note this motor car is subject to the reduced local import tax should it remains in the EU. Bonhams is the guarantor of the customs duties and taxes clearance: consequently, this motor car cannot be released to the buyer or his transporter immediately after the sale.
Horch 853 Spezial roadster
carrossée dans le style d'Erdmann & Rossi 1937
Châssis n° 853177
Moteur n° 851234
•Une des voitures allemandes les plus sportives de l'époque
•Restauration par Horch Classic bien préservée
•Résurrection d'un modèle emblématique
•Boîte manuelle à cinq rapports moderne
•Vendue ave une boîte à quatre rapports Horch ZF originale
Comme les autres modèles de luxe allemands construits en série limitée dans les années1930, l'impressionnante 853 Spezialroadster de Horch fut produite en différentes variantes dans un style qui évolua avec le temps. La seconde série ne compte que cinq exemplaires, un prototype et quatre modèles « de série ». Construits sur un empattement raccourci, ils se distinguaient par leur capot extrêmement long, se prolongeant pratiquement jusqu'au pied du pare-brise incliné à la manière des Packard carrossées par Dietrich avec un pare-chocs avant constitué d'une seule lame et une moulure prenant naissance à l'avant de la voiture et en faisant tout le tour en enveloppant l'arrière.
Le résultat mettait en valeur l'avant de la voiture qui n'avait pratiquement pas de partie arrière, donnant une incroyable impression de puissance et de longueur démesurée. Plus qu'un simple exemplaire de Horch hors du commun, il s'agit de l'une des plus belles automobiles allemandes de l'époque, combinant la fameuse « arrogance teutonne », dont parlent souvent les journalistes automobiles, avec une certaine élégance. Aujourd'hui seuls quatre authentiques Spezialroadsters de la seconde série ont survécu, comparés aux deux fois plus nombreux Spezialroadsters « longue queue » 500 K et 540 K plus connus produits par Mercedes-Benz à la même époque.
L'exemplaire vendu ici a été construit par le spécialiste bien connu Horch Classic sur un châssis 853 original, acquis en Ukraine où il servait de tracteur agricole ! La restauration, qui allait prendre sept années et impliquer des milliers d'heures de main d'œuvre et de recherches dans de nombreuses archives, débuta aussitôt. Le dessin devait associer le meilleur des deux générations de Spezialroadsters, empruntant les phares montés sur les ailes et les portes échancrées du dessin original avec l'arrière arrondi de la seconde génération.
La carrosserie a été réalisée de manière traditionnelle en utilisant un patron en contreplaqué comme modèle pour réaliser la structure de carrosserie en bois conforme à l'originale. On prit grand soin à la réalisation de la structure et des panneaux de carrosserie et en les réunissant avec des tolérances et une finition d'experts. La carrosserie fut peinte dans une harmonie de couleurs percutante conforme à celles de l'époque, gris argent avec capot rouge tandis que l'intérieur recevait un cuir au grain et à la texture conformes à ceux de l'époque, brodé du logotype Horch sur les sièges et les portes. La capote est doublée en Alcantara. Le niveau de détail est tel que le tableau de bord, constitué d'un seul morceau de bois, a été réalisé en loupe d'orme canadien, choisi parce que sa légère nuance rouge s'accordait bien à la teinte de la carrosserie. Tous les chromes ont été refaits, tandis que les logos Horch du radiateur et du coffre ont été plaqués en or 24 carats.
Horch Classic souligne que le châssis a nécessité des réparations à plusieurs endroits en raison de la corrosion, tandis que le moteur original, les essieux avant et arrière, le différentiel et la direction ont tous été révisés, comme nécessaire, avant d'être remontés. Le moteur a reçu des pistons, des roulements et des guides de soupapes neufs et l'arbre à cames et les commandes de soupapes ont été refaits. Passé au banc d'essai pendant 20 heures avant d'être remonté, le moteur est doté d'un système d'allumage moderne et transmet sa puissance à l'essieu arrière via une boîte manuelle à cinq rapports modernes. Il est important de noter qu'une boîte manuelle à quatre rapports originale et conforme, acquise par le vendeur, est fournie avec la voiture, afin de permettre à l'acheteur d'améliorer l'authenticité et la conformité de son acquisition sans grands frais supplémentaires. Précédemment immatriculée en Suisse comme véhicule de collection et vendue avec ces papiers périmés, les frais de douane pour ce pays ont été acquittés et la Horch sera facile à ré-immatriculer si l'heureux acheteur le désire.
Les Spezialroadsters Horch sont très rares et les occasions d'en acquérir un aussi magnifiquement réalisé et si proche du superbe dessin original sont encore plus rares. Construit par des experts de la marque, cette voiture est un hommage à l'un des plus beaux designs européens de son époque, une automobile admirée aussi bien par les passionnés que par les historiens.
Veuillez noter que si cette voiture reste dans la Communauté Européenne elle sera soumise à une taxe d'importation au taux réduit de la TVA à l'importation locale. Bonhams restant le garant des droits et taxes douanières, cette voiture ne pourra donc pas être récupérée par l'acheteur ou son transporteur immédiatement après la vente.

Preserve History
Originally named Dragon Lake Forest Preserve, Springbrook Prairie was slated to be the home of a 200-acre dragon-shaped lake, complete with a swim beach and campgrounds. However, the emergence of a significant grassland bird population eventually led the District to abandon the idea of a lake and to look at ways to restore the preserve to a native prairie landscape.
Recently, the District has secured over $1 million in grants to fund a stream re-meandering project to return the western part of Spring Brook to a more natural state. By returning the twists and turns and by making a wider, shallower bank, the District will improve water quality by slowing the flow and will also allow the stream to easily pour over its banks and into the preserve during heavy rains, improving floodwater-control features.
Activities & Facilities
At Springbrook Prairie Forest Preserve in Naperville, visitors will find 1,849 acres of swaying grasslands, restored prairies and wetlands. Over 90 species of birds, 18 different mammals, and nearly a dozen species of reptiles and amphibians call Springbrook Prairie home. With a little diligence, bird watchers may spot several native grassland species including meadowlarks, dickcissels, grasshopper sparrows, woodcocks, and bobolinks and state-endangered birds like northern harriers, short-eared owls and Henslow's sparrows. Springbrook Prairie is one of three places in northern Illinois to house such a regionally significant grassland bird community.
Outdoor Recreation
Trails
The preserve's 13 miles of trails stay to the perimeter, giving visitors wonderful views and wildlife extra privacy. Over 8 miles are open to hikers, bikers, horseback riders and cross-country skiers, and over 2 miles of narrow, mowed trails allow people on foot a closer view of the preserve's natural features. Sections of the trail may be closed during key bird breeding seasons to protect critical nesting habitats.
Picnicking
Springbrook Prairie features a non-reservable picnic shelter at the trailhead off of 83rd Street. A second non-reservable picnic area is located off of Plainfield-Naperville Road.
Special-Use Areas
Model-Aircraft Field
Hobbyists are welcome to enjoy the model-aircraft field located on the west side of Plainfield-Naperville Road but must have District permits in their possession when using the area. For permit information, call Visitor Services at (630) 933-7248.
Off-Leash Dog Area
Dogs with Forest Preserve District off-leash dog-area permits can enjoy the fully fenced off-leash area at the 83rd Street trailhead. The area, which is northwest of the parking lot, features 2 acres of fine-mowed turf and 34 acres of trails. Call Visitor Services Monday through Friday between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. at (630) 933-7248 for permit applications and information. Owners must have the permits in their possession when using the off-leash area. Rules for the area are posted at the preserve. Dogs must be leashed in all other areas of the preserve.
Accessibility
For special accessibility needs or concerns, please contact the District's ADA coordinator at (630) 933-7683 or TTY (800) 526-0857 at least three business days in advance of your visit.

From the website at Bosque,http://www.bosquedelcabo.com/aboutus/conservation/index.html
"Bosque del Cabo is dedicated to conservation on the Osa Peninsula and has made a commitment to practice and teach sustainable tourism. Our desire to protect the biodiversity and pristine natural condition of the Osa Peninsula, with a specific focus on the area in the corridor from where Bosque is located on Matapalo point up to Corcovado National Park, was a natural and unstoppable compulsion that we felt from the moment we discovered this beautiful land. From our first trip to Costa Rica and the Osa Peninsula we were awed by the wildlife and the forests here. The raw natural state of the Osa, even in its most hostile versions (for instance, in the middle of rainy season in the mid 1980´s when there were no bridges over raging rivers, no electricity to provide lights and no schools, supermarkets or paved airstrips on the peninsula) was astounding in the feeling, the very pulse of life that radiated from every inch of this magnificent area. Of course Bosque is a business, but we started the lodge in order to give us an excuse to stay and live in this amazing place. We wanted our guests to be able to experience that feeling of wonder and awe that we felt (and still feel every day). We feel very strongly that we are stewards of this land and that it is our responsibility to protect it and help the area to flourish. To this end, we personally use most of the proceeds from Bosque to purchase as much property in this area as we can that we feel is threatened with development or non-conservation minded use. We also work with the conservation groups in this area to facilitate and strengthen their efforts. We include information about all these groups in the literature at the lodge and in the accommodations so that our guests can also help if they so wish. The amazing thing is that our guests can make a donation to one of these causes and really make a difference! Further, we at Bosque are committed to practicing and teaching sustainable tourism (please see the ¨sustainable tourism¨ section of this website for more information)."

Als Kelten- oder Viereckschanze bezeichnet man die vor allem in Süddeutschland anzutreffenden Reste von quadratischen, manchmal auch rechteckigen Gevierten mit Wall und umlaufendem Graben. Alleine in Bayern und Baden-Württemberg sind mehr als 300 dieser Anlagen bekannt. Daneben gibt es, wenn auch (bisher) deutlich seltener erkannt, Viereckschanzen in der Schweiz, in Österreich, in Böhmen sowie in Nordfrankreich.
Zwischen Deisenhofen und Wolfratshausen findet man die größte Anzahl an Keltenschanzen in Deutschland. Allein rund um Deisenhofen sind sechs Schanzen erhalten, darunter die 2 größten in Süddeutschland. Diese, die südlichst gelegene Schanze von Deisenhofen und für mich eine der Schönsten im Umkreis, befindet sich nordöstlich von Kreuzpullach.
Beschreibung von einer Hinweistafel des Landratsamts München:
Im Gegensatz zu den Keltenschanzen im freien Gelände, wie z.B. im Lanzenhaarer Feld (östlich von Deisenhofen), wurde diese im Hachinger Holz gelegene Schanze aus dem letzten Jahrhundert vor Christi Geburt später vom Wald überwachsen.
Die viereckigen Wälle mit vorgelagerten Gräben (hier 75 auf 90 m Seitenlänge) umgrenzen eine Kultstätte des Volkes der Kelten. Im Innern des Rechtecks, das durch ein Tor im Ostwall betreten werden konnte, vollzog man in kleinen hölzernen Tempeln und tiefreichenden Schächten religiöse Handlungen.
In der Nähe befinden sich noch eine Hügelgräbergruppe aus der späten Bronzezeit (um 1300 v.Chr.).
Die Schanze besitzt auf allen vier Seiten gut erhaltene Wälle und Gräben. Die Wälle mit einer durchschnittlichen Höhe von etwa vier Metern und einer Breite von vier bis fünf Metern zeigen die schanzentypischen Erhöhungen (etwa einen halben Meter) in den Eckbereichen. Die Gräben besitzen eine Tiefe von rund zwei Metern bei einer Breite von drei bis vier Metern. Das Bodenniveau der Schanzen-Innenfläche liegt etwa einen halben Meter erhöht über dem Bodenniveau der äußeren Umgebung.

Ο Παντοδύναμος Θεός λέει: «Στην Εποχή της Βασιλείας, ο Θεός χρησιμοποιεί τον λόγο για να αναγγείλει μια νέα εποχή, να αλλάξει τα μέσα του έργου Του και να επιτελέσει το έργο όλης της εποχής. Αυτή είναι η θεμελιώδης αρχή, σύμφωνα με την οποία ο Θεός εργάζεται στην Εποχή του Λόγου. Ενσαρκώθηκε για να μιλήσει από διαφορετικές οπτικές γωνίες, επιτρέποντας στον άνθρωπο να δει αληθινά τον Θεό, ο οποίος είναι ο Λόγος που εμφανίζεται στη σάρκα, και η σοφία και το θαύμα Του. Αυτό το έργο επιτελείται ώστε να επιτύχει πιο καλύτερα τους στόχους της κατάκτησης του ανθρώπου, της τελείωσης του ανθρώπου και τηςεξόντωσης του ανθρώπου. Αυτό είναι το πραγματικό νόημα της χρήσης του λόγου για την επιτέλεση του έργου στην Εποχή του Λόγου. Μέσω του λόγου, ο άνθρωπος καταφέρνει να γνωρίσει το έργο του Θεού, τη διάθεση του Θεού, την ουσία του ανθρώπου και σε τι οφείλει να εισέλθει ο άνθρωπος. Μέσω του λόγου, ολοκληρώνεται το σύνολο του έργου που ο Θεός επιθυμεί να επιτελέσει στην Εποχή του Λόγου. Μέσω του λόγου, ο άνθρωπος αποκαλύπτεται, αποκλείεται και δοκιμάζεται. Ο άνθρωπος έχει δει τον λόγο, έχει ακούσει τον λόγο και έχει επίγνωση της ύπαρξης του λόγου. Ως αποτέλεσμα, ο άνθρωπος πιστεύει στην ύπαρξη του Θεού. Ο άνθρωπος πιστεύει στην παντοδυναμία και τη σοφία του Θεού, καθώς και στην καρδιά του Θεού που είναι γεμάτη αγάπη για τον άνθρωπο, και στην επιθυμία Του να σώσει τον άνθρωπο. Μολονότι η λέξη ""λόγος"" είναι απλή και συνηθισμένη, ο λόγος που προέρχεται από το στόμα του ενσαρκωμένου Θεού συγκλονίζει ολόκληρο το σύμπαν. Ο λόγος Του μεταμορφώνει την καρδιά του ανθρώπου, τις αντιλήψεις και την παλαιά διάθεση του ανθρώπου, καθώς και την παλαιά εμφάνιση ολόκληρου του κόσμου. Μέσα από τις διάφορες εποχές, μόνο ο Θεός της σημερινής εποχής εργάζεται κατ’ αυτόν τον τρόπο, και μόνο Αυτός μιλά και σώζει τον άνθρωπο κατ’ αυτόν τον τρόπο. Εφεξής, ο άνθρωπος ζει υπό την καθοδήγηση του λόγου, ποιμαίνεται και εφοδιάζεται από τον λόγο. Ζει στον κόσμο του λόγου, ζει μέσα στο ανάθεμα και τις ευλογίες του λόγου του Θεού και υπάρχουν ακόμα περισσότεροι άνθρωποι που ζουν υπό την κρίση και την παίδευση του λόγου. Αυτός ο λόγος και αυτό το έργο είναι όλα χάριν της σωτηρίας του ανθρώπου, την επίτευξη του θελήματος του Θεού και την αλλαγή της αρχικής εμφάνισης του κόσμου της παλαιάς δημιουργίας. Ο Θεός δημιούργησε τον κόσμο με τον λόγο, οδηγεί τους ανθρώπους σε όλο το σύμπαν με τον λόγο, κατακτά και τους σώζει με τον λόγο. Εν τέλει, θα χρησιμοποιήσει τον λόγο για να θέσει τέλος σε ολόκληρο τον παλαιό κόσμο. Μόνο τότε θα ολοκληρωθεί πλήρως το σχέδιο διαχείρισης. Καθ’ όλη τη διάρκεια της Εποχής της Βασιλείας, ο Θεός χρησιμοποιεί τον λόγο για να επιτελέσει το έργο Του και να επιτύχει τα αποτελέσματα του έργου Του. Δεν κάνει τερατουργίες ούτε κάνει θαύματα. Απλώς επιτελεί το έργο Του μέσω του λόγου. Εξαιτίας του λόγου, ο άνθρωπος τρέφεται και εφοδιάζεται. Εξαιτίας του λόγου, ο άνθρωπος κερδίζει τη γνώση και την αληθινή εμπειρία. Ο άνθρωπος στην Εποχή του Λόγου έχει πράγματι λάβει εξαιρετικές ευλογίες. Ο άνθρωπος δεν υποφέρει από πόνους της σάρκας και απλώς απολαμβάνει την πλούσια προσφορά του λόγου του Θεού. Δεν χρειάζεται να αναζητήσει ή να ταξιδέψει, και βλέπει με άνεση την εμφάνιση του Θεού, Τον ακούει να μιλάει προσωπικά, λαμβάνει την προσφορά Του και να Τον βλέπει προσωπικά να επιτελεί το έργο Του. Ο άνθρωπος στο παρελθόν δεν ήταν σε θέση να τα απολαύσει αυτά, και δεν θα μπορούσε ποτέ να λάβει αυτές τις ευλογίες».

The Airomobile was a one off prototype that although stimulated great interest, never made it into production. Plans for the Airomobile were first drawn up in 1934 by Paul Lewis in the USA. Lewis believed that the 3-wheeled configuration would meet his needs for streamlining and economy. After many technical problems were sorted out with the the vehicle it was eventually built in 1937. The vehicle was powered by a horizontally opposed, 129-cu.in overhead valve, air cooled four cylinder unit (57hp) created by the Dorman Marks Engine Company.
The body was created from steel and was very aerodynamic with it trailing to the rear and having two large fish like fins. The Airomobile did have a very low centre of gravity and was said to take corners faster than any 4-wheeler at the time. Lewis toured the USA on a promotional tour with the Airomobile covering over 45,000 miles. Prospective dealers were told that they would not be able to follow the Airomobile for one mile over rough terrain without damaging their driving mechanism. Lewis would then drive through ploughed fields and ditches without the need to slow down and return to show no damage had been sustained to the vehicle. As a result many dealers became interested in the Airomobile and Lewis was able to establish possible dealers throughout the USA.
In 1938 the Airomobile was slightly redesigned with a new front section that included the lights being moved from the top of the wings and built into them. Lewis again toured the USA but interest in the vehicle had diminished and plans to put the vehicle into full production were squashed with the onset of the second World War and so the vehicle never became anything more than a prototype.
The 1937 Airomobile is at the National automobile Museum at 10 Lake Street South, Reno, Nevada. 89501. USA.

Eifert dem Herrn Jesus nach
I
Jesus hat Gottes Mission vollendet,
das Werk der Erlösung aller Menschen,
indem Er Seine Sorgen Gottes Willen gab,
ohne selbstsüchtige Absicht oder Pläne.
Ins Zentrum stellte Er Gottes Plan.
Zum himmlischen Vater betete Er,
nach des himmlischen Vaters Willen suchend.
Stets suchte und betete Er.
Wenn ihr, wie Jesus, all eure Sorgen Gott gebt,
und dem Fleisch euren Rücken zukehrt,
dann wird Gott
euch wichtige Aufgaben anvertrau’n,
damit ihr Ihm dienen könnt.
II
Er betete und sagte: „Gott, der Vater!
Vollende Deinen Willen.
Handle nicht nach Meinen Absichten,
handle so, dass Dein Plan sich erfüllt.
Warum sorgst Du Dich
um die Menschheit, die schwach ist,
der in Deiner Hand wie eine Ameise ist?
Ich will nur Deinen Willen erfüll’n.
Wirke in Mir, so wie Du es gedenkst.“
Wenn ihr, wie Jesus, all eure Sorgen Gott gebt,
und dem Fleisch euren Rücken zukehrt,
dann wird Gott
euch wichtige Aufgaben anvertrau’n,
damit ihr Ihm dienen könnt.
III
Auf der Straße nach Jerusalem
ward Jesus das Herz schwer.
Dennoch hielt Er Sein Wort, Er schritt voran,
dorthin, wo Er gekreuzigt werden würde.
Am Ende wurde Er ans Kreuz geschlagen,
wurde zu einem Abbild des sündigen Fleisches,
vollendete das Werk der Erlösung,
erhob sich über die Fesseln des Todes.
Wenn ihr, wie Jesus, all eure Sorgen Gott gebt,
und dem Fleisch euren Rücken zukehrt,
dann wird Gott
euch wichtige Aufgaben anvertrau’n,
damit ihr Ihm dienen könnt.
IV
Jesus lebte 33 Jahre,
tat alles, um Gott zufriedenzustell’n,
dachte nie an Verlust oder Gewinn,
nur an den Willen Gottes, des Vaters.
Der Dienst des Herrn Jesus
stand immer im Einklang mit Gottes Willen.
Also war Er geeignet,
die Bürde der Erlösung zu erfüll’n.
Endloses Leid ertrug Er,
und unzählige Male
brachte Satan Ihn in Versuchung.
Dennoch war Er nie entmutigt.
In Vertrauen und Liebe
gab Gott Ihm diese Aufgabe.
Wenn ihr, wie Jesus, all eure Sorgen Gott gebt,
und dem Fleisch euren Rücken zukehrt,
dann wird Gott
euch wichtige Aufgaben anvertrau’n,
damit ihr Ihm dienen könnt.
Und nur in Zeiten wie diesen
werdet ihr es wagen, zu sagen,
dass ihr Seinen Willen erfüllt,
dass ihr Seinen Auftrag vollendet,
dass ihr Gott wahrhaftig dient.
aus „Das Wort erscheint im Fleisch“

(chscott.ecuad.ca/exhibitions/2014/aspen_magazine.html)
"Aspen Magazine was a multimedia magazine conceived of, edited and published by Phyllis Johnson in New York from 1965 to 1971. Aspen broke new ground in terms of its editorial concept, design approach and distribution strategy, which continues to be resonant and influential today.
The magazine featured a diverse and impressive array of contributors, from such key artists, musicians, authors and theorists as Andy Warhol, Willem de Kooning, Ian Hamilton Finlay, David Hockney, Jasper Johns, Allan Kaprow, Ed Ruscha, J. G. Ballard, Bill Evans, Philip Glass, the Velvet Underground and Yoko Ono. Known as “the magazine in a box,” Aspen was made up of unbound contents that included texts, flexi-discs, reels of film and other objects. It struck a chord in the 1960s artists’ publishing culture—which included publications by Marcel Duchamp, Seth Siegelaub and members of the Fluxus movement—and embraced the idea of presenting travelling exhibitions in a book (or a box, for that matter) in order to provide alternative spaces and economies for art.
The exhibition features complete sets of all issues, with a focus on the combined edition of issues five and six from 1967, which was guest-edited by Brian O’Doherty and is referred to as The Conceptual Issue. Contributors to this issue include Marcel Duchamp, Samuel Beckett, John Cage, Robert Rauschenberg, Hans Richter, Sol LeWitt, Mel Bochner, Naum Gabo, László Moholy-Nagy, Dan Graham, George Kubler, Robert Morris, William S. Burroughs, Roland Barthes, Susan Sontag, Alain Robbe-Grillet, Morton Feldman, Michel Butor, Tony Smith and Merce Cunningham. Barthes first published his influential and important essay The Death of the Author in this issue.
The exhibition is on loan from the Whitechapel Gallery in London. Curator Nayia Yiakoumaki will be in attendance at the opening and will present a public talk.

This is the Giant Camera located behind the Cliff House in San Francisco. It was built in 1946 by Floyd Jennings. It looks rather out of place there, somehow airlifted from a decaying amusement park. There’s a little bit of irony there, as it was once part of Playland-at-the-Beach Amusement Park. The Camera hasn’t moved; Playland, the Cliff House and the Sutro Baths were at one time all owned by George Whitney. When Playland closed in 1972, it was close to being destroyed, but was eventually saved by public campaign – and as recently as 1999 struggled through the same situation.
Fortunately for us, not only was it still there, it was open. This thing is so tucked away that this was actually something new for Rita.
And now you ask, what the heck is the Giant Camera? I’m getting to that. It is sometimes referred to as a camera obscura, which in latin means “dark chamber”. And that’s essentially what it is. At it’s most basic, think of a pinhole camera. However, this one has the lens on top, and a series of mirrors and lenses to project the image onto a large disc in the middle of the room. The question then arises, "What kind of fool would go into a dark room to look at the projection of something they can see for real outside?"
Well, certainly I’m that kind of fool. It’s not easy to describe how fascinating it is, but somehow it’s like peering into an alternate universe. I think the thing of it is we’re all so used to looking at televisions and computer monitors, but the detail of this is amazing. Well worth a visit if you’re in the area.

Κάτω από έναν έναστρο, ήσυχο και ειρηνικό νυχτερινό ουρανό, μια ομάδα χριστιανών που περιμένουν ένθερμα την επιστροφή του Σωτήρος τραγουδούν και χορεύουν με χαρούμενη μουσική. Μόλις ακούν τα χαρούμενα νέα «ο
Θεός επέστρεψε» και «ο Θεός έχει κάνει νέες ομιλίες», είναι έκπληκτοι κι ενθουσιασμένοι. Σκέφτονται: «Όντως ο Θεός επέστρεψε; Όντως έχει ήδη εμφανιστεί ;» Με περιέργεια και αβεβαιότητα, ο ένας μετά τον άλλον, ξεκινούν το ταξίδι της αναζήτησης των νέων λόγων του Θεού. Στην επίπονη αναζήτησή τους, κάποιοι αμφισβητούν, ενώ άλλοι απλά το αποδέχονται. Μερικοί άνθρωποι παρακολουθούν χωρίς σχόλια, ενώ άλλοι κάνουν προτάσεις κι αναζητούν απαντήσεις στη
Βίβλου · αναζητούν αλλά στο τέλος οι αναζητήσεις είναι άκαρπες ... Τη στιγμή που αποθαρρύνονται, ένας μάρτυρας τους φέρνει ένα αντίγραφο της Βίβλου της Εποχής της Βασιλείας και προσελκύονται έντονα από τις λέξεις στο βιβλίο. Τι είδους βιβλίο είναι αυτό πραγματικά; Έχουν βρει πραγματικά τα νέα λόγια που ο Θεός έχει εκφράσει σε αυτό το βιβλίο; Καλωσόρισαν την εμφάνιση του Θεού;
τα χνάρια του Θεού

Kurokawa Onsen is one of Japan's most attractive hot spring towns, located in the middle of Kyushu about 20 kilometres north of Mount Aso. Well coordinated efforts by the town to maintain a pleasant, traditional atmosphere have kept Kurokawa free of the massive concrete hotels, neon advertisements and loud colors that are encountered in many of Japan's other resort towns.
Instead, Kurokawa's townscape is dominated by natural colors and materials, wooden buildings, earthen walls, stone stairs and a river flowing through. The town center, located in a forested valley, is compact and easily explored on foot, except for a few ryokan which are located less centrally.
The town's lanes are lined by ryokan, public bath houses, attractive shops and cafes, a small shrine and bridges that lead over the river directly to ryokan entrances. A walk through town is particularly enjoyable in yukata and geta sandals provided by one's ryokan. An information center, where maps and other information can be obtained, is also found in the town centre.
Kurokawa is not only known for its attractive town, but also for the outstanding outdoor baths (rotenburo) of its ryokan some of which are located right besides a gushing river or impress by their large sizes. The larger baths with good views tend to be located a little bit outside of the town center, while some of the more central ryokan attract with smaller but historic baths, which were already enjoyed by the feudal lords of nearby Kumamoto Castle.

Women's Black Ave MBT Sneaker from www.onlineairjordanmall.com just 133.99 USD for free shipping.MBT Wave Shoes looks simple yet stylish elements. This style of product will not only change how you use your muscles, but will improve the use of your joints and spine. Specially cheap MBT Shoes designed sole, combined with correct training, to achieve a more active and healthy posture and walk.
At MBT it is our philosophy to keep the body in motion. We believe motion is key to helping find and maintain the right balance in life. At MBT, we can help achieve this through our unique shoe design that combines a perfect balance of function with style. MBT (Masai Barefoot Technology) was born in 1996 when we discovered that natural instability can have positive effects on the human body. We made this discovery by observing the wonderfully agile Masai people walking barefoot on natural, uneven ground. Seeing these people in action made us realize that the human body is simply not designed to walk or stand on the hard, flat surfaces of modern society. So we set out to develop a new kind of footwear, one that would mimic walking on soft, uneven ground. The results have been dramatic and revolutionary. MBTs are now sold in more than 55 countries. MBT's patented Masai Sensor and Balancing Area creates instability that your body instinctively attempts to correct. This corrective action can help add more movement into everyday life, lead to increased muscle activation and help improve posture and balance.
When walking in MBTs, the ground no longer feels flat and stable, so the body has to compensate and create stability, so you'll always be able to do more for your body while standing and walking See it in www.onlineairjordanmall.com/mbt-ave-and-mbt-katika/149-wo...

la construction des Autoroutes en France - Les liaisons moins dangereuses 1972 www.dailymotion.com/video/xxi0ae?playlist=x34ije - Ministère de l'Équipement et de l'Aménagement du Territoire - Dotation par la France d'autoroutes modernes "nécessité vitale" pour palier à l'inadaptation du réseau routier de l'époque voué à la paralysie : le reportage nous montre des images d'embouteillages. Le ministre de l'Équipement et de l'Aménagement du Territoire dans les deux gouvernements de Pierre Messmer, de 1972 à 1974, Olivier Guichard explique les ambitions du programme de construction qui doit atteindre 800 km par ans en 1978. L'ouverture de section nouvelles va bon train : Nancy / Metz par exemple. Le reportage nous montre l'intérieur des bureaux d'études qui conçoivent ces autoroute dont la conception est assistée par ordinateurs dont le projet d'ensemble en 3D est visualisé sur un écran. La voix off nous informe sur le financement de ces équipements. Puis on peut voir des images de la construction du pont sur la Seine à Saint Cloud reliant l'autoroute de Normandie au périphérique, de l'échangeur de Palaiseau sur 4 niveau : record d'Europe précise le commentaire. Le reportage nous informe que des sociétés d'économies mixtes ont étés crées pour les tronçons : Paris / Lille, Paris / Marseille, Paris / Normandie. Pour accélérer la construction l’État a eu recours à des concessions privées par exemple pour le tronçon Paris / Chartres. "Les autoroutes changent le visage de la France : artères économiques favorisant le développement industriel elles permettent de revitaliser des régions en perte de vitesse et de l'intégrer dans le mouvement général de l'expansion" Sur le plan européen elles vont combler le retard de la France et réaliser son insertion. Images de l'inauguration de l'autoroute entre Paris et Bruxelles par le président Georges Pompidou. Le reportage rappel que l'autre fonction capitale des autoroute est de favoriser la sécurité. La question de la limitation de vitesse est posée au ministre de l’Équipement, qui n'y est favorable que sur certains tronçons. Un des facteur de sécurité selon le commentaire est l'humanisation des autoroutes : aires de repos, restaurants, signalisation touristiques... "Rien n'est impossible aux techniques modernes" nous apprend la voix off qui prend comme exemple le déplacement sur rail de 65 mètres d'un château classé afin de faire passer l'autoroute Lille / Dunkerque.Durée : 4 minutes 30 secondes
Sur les routes de France les ponts renaissent 1945 reconstruction de la France après la Seconde Guerre mondiale www.dailymotion.com/video/xuxrii?playlist=x34ije , Quelques mois après la fin de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, un triste constat s'impose : 5 944 passages sont coupés, soit plus de 110 km de brèches ; de nombreuses villes se trouvent isolées.Les chantiers s'activent dans toute la France pour "gagner la bataille des communications routières". Mais outre la pénurie de main d’œuvre, il faut faire face au manque de matériaux (béton, métal) et donc déployer des trésors d'imagination pour reconstruire les ponts détruits. Si le savoir faire des tailleurs de pierre est exploité, le plus spectaculaire est le relevage des ponts, comme le pont de Galliéni à Lyon, où 7 à 800 tonnes d'acier sont sorti de l'eau avec des moyens de l'époque. En avril 1945, il reste 5 700 ponts à reconstruire soit 200 000 tonnes d'acier, 600 000 tonnes de ciment, 250 000 m3 de bois, 10 millions de journées d'ouvrier, prix de l'effort de reconstruction.1945

www.dailymotion.com/video/xw6lak?playlist=x34ije - Rue neuve 1956 la reconstruction de la France dix ans après la fin de la seconde guerre mondiale, villes, villages, grands ensembles réalisation : Jack Pinoteau , Panorama de la reconstruction de la France dix ans après la fin de la seconde guerre mondiale, ce film de commande évoque les villes et villages français détruits puis reconstruits dans un style respectant la tradition : Saint-Malo, Gien, Thionville, Ammerschwihr, etc. ainsi que la reconstruction en rupture avec l'architecture traditionnelle à Châtenay-Malabry, Arles, Saint Étienne, Évreux, Chambéry, Villeneuve-Saint-Georges, Abbeville, Le Havre, Marseille, Boulogne-sur-Mer, Dunkerque. Le documentaire explique par exemple la manière dont a été réalisée la reconstruction de Saint-Malo à l'intérieur des rempart de la vieille ville : "c'est la fidélité à l'histoire et la force du souvenir qui a guidé l'architecte". Dans le même esprit à Gien, au trois quart détruite en 1940, seul le château construit en 1494 pour Anne de Beaujeu, fille aînée de Louis XI, fut épargné par les bombardements. La ville fut reconstruite dans le style des rares immeubles restant. Gien est relevé de ses ruines et le nouvel ensemble harmonieux est appelé « Joyau de la Reconstruction française ». Dans un deuxième temps est abordé le chapitre de la construction des cités et des grands ensembles, de l’architecture du renouveau qualifiée de "grandiose incontestablement". S’il est précisé "on peut aimer ou de ne pas aimer ce style", l’emporte au final l’argument suivant : les grands ensembles, c'est la campagne à la ville, un urbanisme plus aéré, plus vert." les films caravelles 1956, Réalisateur : Jack Pinoteau (connu pour être le metteur en scène du film Le Triporteur 1957 qui fit découvrir Darry Cowl) www.dailymotion.com/video/xuz3o8?playlist=x34ije , Film d'archive actualités de 1952 Reconstruction de la France sept ans après la fin de la seconde guerre mondiale état des lieux de la crise du logement , Actualités de 1952.

Clearly we are witnessing a significant cultural shift happening alongside the political and ideological shifts occurring alongside today's presidential inauguration. When the media from FOX news, NPR, NBC, New York Times to widespread public expression through commercial means (t-shirts, posters, shot glasses, and comics) are all in harmony praising the changing of power in Washington, there is something truly unique taking place. When was the last time a President Elect generated this kind of excitement? The only Bush-Cheney t-shirts I recall were parodies and critiques.
I have a greatly improved state of mind today regarding the future of our country and our world. I have been disappointed, sad, angry, shocked, and dismayed repeatedly over the course of the last eight years. I know there will be very tough, contentious times ahead that will divide people into factions. However, I believe Obama's fundamental approach working to unite people of various beliefs will go a long way toward improving the dysfunctional government we've sadly come to expect. A new day has dawned for America and the world. Let us all hold forgiveness and cooperation in our hearts. Hatred should have no place in the soul of true Americans committed to democracy, freedom, prosperity and peace.

Si c'est bien elle (je n'ai pas vu les pétales inférieurs enroulés, tout de même à l'origine de son nom! mais c'est la même forme de feuille et la même taille) elle est à essayer chez nous, elle vient du Mexique et aime le chaud
- condamnée à passer l'hiver en pot en région froide, mais se bouturerait aisément

Salvia buchananii? la taille est moindre mais le site (australien) signale des fleurs veloutées
This is a compact plant only 50cm tall. It has shiny foliage and quite large velvety cerise flowers, which appear mainly in late spring and early summer, though spot flowers will appear all through summer. It can tolerate a degree of shade and can be grown in a pot. With its compact size, it is perfect to mix with cottage-style perennials...
Pas elle, ses feuilles sont lisses et brillantes selon
nature.jardin.free.fr/vivace/ft_salvia_buc.html
-dite herbacée ou arbustive, selon les sites
This is an excellent plant which flowers basically all year round. It is dainty, and grows to about 60cm with shiny leaves and slender flower stems with velvety cerise little flowers giving a haze of colour. It needs a spot where it won't be overgrown by bigger plants. It does tolerate a bit of shade but is most floriferous in a sunny spot. It looks pretty with silver or cerise leaves nearby; pink or blue flowers are also attractive with it - it is very pretty in a cottage-style garden.
Semble plus mauve sur la plupart des autres sites - Origine : Mexique (province de Chiapas) et elle est moins élancée
un massif avec plusieurs sortes de sauges, et diverses autres plantes.
C'est en urgence que que suis revenue les prendre, car les massifs sont en cours de renouvellement, sur l'autre côté de la rue, ils étaient en train de les arracher quand nous allions à la boulangerie.
Et ça fait bizarre de voir le plateau du camion, tout fleuri, plein de pétunias et autres, encore très beaux qui partent au compost.
