Міністр оборони України взяв участь у відкритті XIV Міжнародної спеціалізованої виставки озброєння та військової техніки «Зброя та безпека»
10 жовтня, в рамках Дня офіційних делегацій Міністр оборони України генерал армії України Степан Полторак взяв участь в урочистому відкритті XIV Міжнародної спеціалізованої виставки озброєння та військової техніки, яка проводиться у столичному Міжнародному виставковому центрі.
У павільйонах та на відкритих майданчиках виставки, яка проводиться напередодні Дня захисника України, представлено натурні зразки військової техніки та озброєння. Виставка «Зброя та безпека» демонструє також процес імплементації стандартів НАТО у виробництві військової продукції.
Міністр оборони України ознайомився із представленими останніми зразками озброєння та військової техніки українського та іноземного виробництва.
Як повідомив генерал армії України Степан Полторак, по завершенню Міжнародної спеціалізованої виставки озброєння буде підписано контракт на закуплю БТР-4Е останньої модернізації. Окрім цього, у 2017 році було зроблено зміни до державного оборонного замовлення, і планується значно збільшити замовлення для Збройних Сил України на протитанкові ракетні комплекси “Стугна”, “Корсар” та інші.
“Для того, щоби ми були кращими потрібно мати фінансовий ресурс, певні можливості військово-промислового комплексу, і, звичайно, продовжувати реформування Збройних Сил і Міністерства оборони України. По всім трьом напрямкам ми працюємо”. Про це зазначив Міністр оборони України генерал армії України Степан Полторак 10 жовтня, під час відвідування XIV Міжнародної спеціалізованої виставки озброєння та військової техніки.
– Що стосується реформування, то за 2016 рік практично всі заходи, які планувалися, ми виконали. Що стосується фінансування, то на 2017 рік ми отримали бюджет 69 млрд грн. На 2018 рік, попередньо, бюджет буде значно збільшений. І саме головне у плануванні бюджету на наступний рік є те, що ми плануємо значно збільшити фінансовий ресурс на модернізацію і закупівлю нової техніки, і не тільки українського виробництва, – повідомив представникам ЗМІ Міністр оборони України.
Він підкреслив, “для того, щоби ми знали, яку техніку можемо купити, ми маємо отримати бюджет, й тоді будемо планувати на що його будемо витрачати”.
– Сьогодні ми попередньо знаємо які наші потреби і що нам можуть продати наші партнери, але на кінцеве рішення по кількості, номенклатурі озброєння ми будемо розуміти тоді, коли отримаємо бюджет в кінцевому вигляді, – сказав Міністр оборони України Степан Полторак.
“Цього року ми зробили зміни до держоборонзамовлення і плануємо збільшити замовлення на ПТРК “Стугна” “Корсар” – Міністр оборони України
Про це під час відвідування XIV Міжнародної спеціалізованої виставки озброєння та військової техніки зазначив Міністр оборони України генерал армії України Степан Полторак.
“Як і будь-яка техніка, для того, щоби вона увійшла, стала на озброєння й зайняла своє місце, була ефективною, необхідний час. Якщо порівняти перші протитанкові ракетні комплекси українського виробництва “Стугна”, “Корсар”, й нинішні, різниця величезна. Тому й об’єми закупівель протитанкових засобів значно збільшуються, – сказав Міністр оборони України. – Цього року ми зробили зміни до державного оборонного замовлення і плануємо значно збільшити замовлення на протитанкові ракетні комплекси “Стугна”, “Корсар” та інші”.
Він зазначив: “Якщо порівняти завдання, які стоять сьогодні перед Збройними Силами, і можливості, ми укомплектовані технікою, яка дає можливість виконувати бойові завдання”.
– Але ми всі розуміємо, що техніка має змінюватися, проходити модернізацію. Переваги, які ми бачимо на наступний рік, це – засоби протиповітряної оборони, протитанкові засоби, засоби радіоелектронної боротьби, безпілотні літальні апарати, інші напрямки, які значно підвищать рівень боєздатності наших Збройних Сил, – розповів Міністр оборони України генерал армії України Степан Полторак.
Minister of Defence participates in opening ceremony of XIV International specialized exhibition ‘Arms and Security – 2017’
Minister of Defence of Ukraine General of the Army of Ukraine Stepan Poltorak participated in an official opening ceremony of the XIV International specialized exhibition ‘Arms and Security – 2017’ in Kyiv.
The exhibition conducted on the eve of the Day of Defender of Ukraine is a possibility to provide a demonstration of natural samples. The exposition is also a demonstration of the process of NATO standards implementation in production of military items.
The Minister toured the exposition and informed that after it the contract of BTR-4E acquisition would be signed. Moreover, in 2017 the state defence order has been amended and it is estimated to increase the order of anti-tank missile systems Stuhna Korsar, etc.
Stepan Poltorak: We plan to increase financial resource for modernization and acquisition of new equipment
“In order to be the best, we need financial resource, capabilities of defence industry and to continue army reforms. And we do it,” General Poltorak stressed at the XIV International specialized exhibition ‘Arms and Security – 2017’ held in Kyiv.
“Concerning reforms, in 2016, we executed all the scheduled activities. Concerning budgeting, in 2017, we got UAH 69 billion. In 2018, the budget might be considerably increased. And the most important thing that we will increase the financial resource for modernization and acquisition of new equipment,” the Minister informed the media.
He underlined that the acquisition planning would be started after the reception of the financial resource.
“Today, we preliminarily know our needs and the items which can be provided by our partners, but the final decision will be taken after the final reception of the resource,” Gen. Poltorak remarked.
After the International specialized exhibition we will sign the contract of BTR-4E purchase, Minister of Defence
Minister of Defence of Ukraine General of the Army of Ukraine Stepan Poltorak announced it at the XIV International specialized exhibition ‘Arms and Security – 2017’ in Kyiv.
“I like the last version of BTR-4. It has been changed a lot if we compare it with BTR we bought in 2014. It differs. All defects and remarks have been considered and eliminated. It is floatable, has better armour and mine protection; its control system is better and safer. About 100 amendments have been made since 2014,” Gen. Poltorak said.
The Minister of Defence of Ukraine informed that the contract of BTR-4E purchase would be signed after the exhibition.
According to him, considering the financial resource, the Defence Ministry got in summer, the procedure of signing contracts and launching manufacturing Oplot tanks is being carried out.
Stepan Poltorak: This year we have amended the state defence order and we are planning to increase the order of antitank guided missiles Stuhna and Korsar
General Poltorak said about it at the XIV International specialized exhibition ‘Arms and Security – 2017’.
“It is time-consuming to put equipment into service and make it more effective. If we compare first Ukrainian anti-tank systems Stuhna and Korsar and their current versions, we’ll see the difference. That’s why the acquisition volumes are being increased,” the Minister said, “This year we have amended the state defence order and plan to increase the order of antitank guided missiles Stuhna and Korsar”.
He also mentioned, ‘If we compare current tasks and capabilities, now we have the equipment permitting us to accomplish combat tasks’.
“But we understand that equipment should undergo modifications and modernizations. Our priorities for the next year are air defence equipment, anti-tank equipment, electronic warfare equipment, unmanned aerial vehicles, other spheres which will boost combat capabilities of our Armed Forces,” the Minister informed.

Ministerio de la Producción evalúa implementar un CITE Forestal y Agropecuario en la región Cajamarca
El ITP realizó durante dos meses un levantamiento de información y halló que existe una masa crítica de mypes y productores forestales y agropecuarios con una demanda potencial significativa, que necesita ser potenciada a través de servicios tecnológicos.
Este CITE será útil para darle valor agregado a los productos más representativos de la región, en particular aquellos de la cadena láctea.
La ministra de la Producción, Rocío Barrios, se reunió esta mañana con el Gobernador Regional, Mesías Guevara, para dialogar sobre temas relacionados al desarrollo productivo de Cajamarca.
En la reunión, Barrios informó que el Instituto Tecnológico de la Producción (ITP) realizó durante dos meses un levantamiento de información en la región y halló que existe una masa crítica de mypes y productores que necesita capacitación y asistencia técnica para potenciarlas y acompañarlas en su ingreso al mercado.
“Queremos materializar un plan de trabajo que permita acompañar a Cajamarca en su desarrollo productivo. Es una región muy rica y con potencial, el desafío es intervenir como Estado para darle valor agregado a sus mejores productos, con la intención que puedan generar empleo y se conviertan en un motor de crecimiento”, destacó.
CITE Forestal y Agroindustrial
La titular de PRODUCE sostuvo que se va evaluar la puesta en marcha de un CITE Forestal y Agroindustrial en la región, que en principio funcione como una Unidad Técnica (UT).
Indicó que en las próximas semanas debería iniciarse la intervención a través de la Red de CITE existente, así como el establecimiento de plazos para la posterior implementación del nuevo CITE, con el apoyo del Gobierno Regional de Cajamarca.
“Solicitamos al GORE que nos permitan un lugar habilitado para el local del CITE y su compromiso de apoyar este proyecto”; añadió.
Asimismo, precisó que desde el próximo mes el ITP podría realizar talleres y capacitaciones en la región a través de CITE Cedepas Norte y CITE madera, así como la posibilidad de que mypes cajamarquinas realicen pasantías.
Actividades protocolares
Durante su visita a Cajamarca, la ministra Rocío Barrios participó en la feria Fongal, que promueve la participación de productores de café y cacao con el objetivo de conquistar nuevos mercados a nivel nacional e internacional.
La tradicional feria agropecuaria, agroindustrial, artesanal y turística de Cajamarca, se realiza del 23 al 30 de julio con la intención de mostrar a la población local y a los turistas nacionales y extranjeros, a los mejores expositores y productores de esta región.
De igual manera, estuvo presente en el lanzamiento de la estrategia Cero Papel, a la cual destacó. “En solo seis meses este GORE está dando un salto digital muy importante y los felicito.

Este santuário está
implementado numa vasta
área consagrada ao culto
Mariano e constitui um pólo
de dinamização de
numerosas actividades de
espiritualidade, recolhimento
e apoio social. Na sua
génese, está a resposta das
populações do nordeste
transmontano à mensagem
de Fátima, através de uma
acção liderada por um
sacerdote natural da região: o
P. Manuel Joaquim Ochôa.
Começou a ser edificado em
1961. Para a sua construção
foi necessária a colaboração
de todo o povo de Cerejais,
homens e mulheres; eles com
quatrocentos carros de bois
de pedra e elas com o transporte de toda a água necessária à construção,
muita da qual foi transportada em cântaros, à cabeça.
Além da capela principal, fazem parte do conjunto do santuário:
l O Calvário (fig.1.1) com uma capelinha onde se encontra um conjunto
escultórico, em tamanho natural, que representa o encontro da Mãe
Dolorosa com o seu Divino Filho.
l Uma Via-sacra que percorre o caminho entre a Capela e o Calvário e
cujas cruzes foram esculpidas em granito da aldeia de Romeu.
Dois anos mais tarde, em 28 de Maio de 1967, celebrou-se a “festa dos
Bispos” como ficou conhecida a inauguração dos quinze Mistérios do
Rosário, que estão representados por outras tantas figuras esculpidas que
se distribuem à beira do caminho entre a capela e a Loca do Cabeço. Com
efeito, nas cerimónias desta inauguração, estiveram presentes os bispos
de Bragança-Miranda, Leiria, Lamego e Dili.
Em 1976 foi edificado o primeiro pavilhão da Casa dos Pastorinhos e foi
ampliada a torre sineira.
1977 foi o ano da comemoração do 60º aniversário das aparições em
Fátima e o Santuário dos Cerejais foi o ponto central das comemorações
na diocese de Bragança-Miranda.
seu desejo ao rei que logo pensou juntar o útil ao agradável: fez a vontade
à esposa e aproveitou o pretexto para construir uma fortificação militar nas
proximidades, dado que se tratava de um local estratégico para a
segurança do reino.
A administração da capela e dos seus folgados proventos determinados
por D. Dinis foi entregue aos frades beneditinos do mosteiro do Castro da
Avelãs, que se localiza a cerca de 30 km de distância, próximo a Bragança.
No reinado de D. João III, foi construída a catedral de Miranda, que passou
a ser a sede da diocese para quem passou a administração do santuário.
Durante todos estes anos, as actividades de culto foram promovidas pela
confraria que contava sempre com um mordomo castelhano, o que
confirma a grande influência que o santuário exerce do outro lado da
fronteira. Do lado espanhol o Santuário é designado por “La Ribeiriña”.
Apesar da grande quantidade de romeiros e da celebração anual das
grandes romarias, o templo chegou ao final do século XIX num estado de
apreciável degradação. Providencialmente surgiu um benemérito, próspero
emigrante no Brasil, natural de Castrelos, de seu nome António do Carmo
Pires.

June 23, 2015. Started my day at the dentist - just a cleaning, but any day someone scrapes your teeth with a metal implement is not a good one. Still, I had a reasonably productive afternoon.
Can anyone tell me what this implement is for? It was found in the same yard as the two previously pictured Massey Ferguson tractors.

I don't know how this junk came to arrive at the new implement shed south of the Dickens barn, but if farmers used the implements, they used them up. And took a GIFT donation deduction from their income taxes. You may want to make a collection like this, now that you know how it's done! NO? I guess you'd have to set yourself up as a tax-free charity first. Kind of like political parties. Strange, how all this got slowly collected here in a building that is probably valued at much more. Maybe they could used it to drag one of those manure (or Eddie) spreaders outside the Dickens barn around and help the pastures out... if they could find some spare fertilizer laying around on a dairy farm? The mystery is that cows can comprehend the difference? The nearby sleigh looks like it might only fit a child's pony, while the wagon with sides looks like it was a hopper that shuttled bulk grain to market or a mill. That couldn't be done easily with the buck board in the distance. I didn't check to see if the buckboard was sprung like the grey axle or was simply a "bucking" wagon. Chuckle. I wonder how many times they had to get off and slap circulation back into their buns on a trip to town.
Highway #66 that I have been mentioning runs along to my back here and reminds me that I have a copy of "Ladies life in the Rocky Mountains" by Isabella Bird that was published continuously since about 1863-5 should someone send me a valid e-mail address that accepts attachments on Flickr mail. The book is top notch. She quite probably traveled from "Longmount" right by here on her way to Estes Park in the 1860s. I also have a couple other PDFs regarding R.M.N.P too.
This is the McIntosh-Lohr Farm Agricultural Museum on Highway #66, (not the same as Route #66). I dropped everything else because the clouding has been absent recently. Today, they really popped the structures. The day, though, served up a late sprinkle and a promise of 92 tomorrow. Editing in the cool air conditioning this weekend, I guess. I am spending extra time on the best of the captures considering these abundant skies. I was just in time for the sky. I looked out of my window and jumped up, gathered my camera and split. I scored shots out here some years ago but the sky was a dud and I was using my old D70. The farm/museum is part way between Largemont and Hygiene, Colorado. Today, I can afford the time to stop and look (it was my reason for coming here) over the old shots I ought to have spotted before. There COULD be some time involved in editing this shot. Colorado HAS been serving up June skies lately. There may be another shot coming up.

The Albertina
The architectural history of the Palais
(Pictures you can see by clicking on the link at the end of page!)
Image: The oldest photographic view of the newly designed Palais Archduke Albrecht, 1869
"It is my will that the expansion of the inner city of Vienna with regard to a suitable connection of the same with the suburbs as soon as possible is tackled and at this on Regulirung (regulation) and beautifying of my Residence and Imperial Capital is taken into account. To this end I grant the withdrawal of the ramparts and fortifications of the inner city and the trenches around the same".
This decree of Emperor Franz Joseph I, published on 25 December 1857 in the Wiener Zeitung, formed the basis for the largest the surface concerning and architecturally most significant transformation of the Viennese cityscape. Involving several renowned domestic and foreign architects a "master plan" took form, which included the construction of a boulevard instead of the ramparts between the inner city and its radially upstream suburbs. In the 50-years during implementation phase, an impressive architectural ensemble developed, consisting of imperial and private representational buildings, public administration and cultural buildings, churches and barracks, marking the era under the term "ring-street style". Already in the first year tithe decided a senior member of the Austrian imperial family to decorate the facades of his palace according to the new design principles, and thus certified the aristocratic claim that this also "historicism" said style on the part of the imperial house was attributed.

It was the palace of Archduke Albrecht (1817-1895), the Senior of the Habsburg Family Council, who as Field Marshal held the overall command over the Austro-Hungarian army. The building was incorporated into the imperial residence of the Hofburg complex, forming the south-west corner and extending eleven meters above street level on the so-called Augustinerbastei.
The close proximity of the palace to the imperial residence corresponded not only with Emperor Franz Joseph I and Archduke Albert with a close familial relationship between the owner of the palace and the monarch. Even the former inhabitants were always in close relationship to the imperial family, whether by birth or marriage. An exception here again proves the rule: Don Emanuel Teles da Silva Conde Tarouca (1696-1771), for which Maria Theresa in 1744 the palace had built, was just a close friend and advisor of the monarch. Silva Tarouca underpins the rule with a second exception, because he belonged to the administrative services as Generalhofbaudirektor (general court architect) and President of the Austrian-Dutch administration, while all other him subsequent owners were highest ranking military.
In the annals of Austrian history, especially those of military history, they either went into as commander of the Imperial Army, or the Austrian, later kk Army. In chronological order, this applies to Duke Carl Alexander of Lorraine, the brother-of-law of Maria Theresa, as Imperial Marshal, her son-in-law Duke Albert of Saxe-Teschen, also field marshal, whos adopted son, Archduke Charles of Austria, the last imperial field marshal and only Generalissimo of Austria, his son Archduke Albrecht of Austria as Feldmarschalil and army Supreme commander, and most recently his nephew Archduke Friedrich of Austria, who held as field marshal from 1914 to 1916 the command of the Austro-Hungarian troops. Despite their military profession, all five generals conceived themselves as patrons of the arts and promoted large sums of money to build large collections, the construction of magnificent buildings and cultural life. Charles Alexander of Lorraine promoted as governor of the Austrian Netherlands from 1741 to 1780 the Academy of Fine Arts, the Théâtre de Ja Monnaie and the companies Bourgeois Concert and Concert Noble, he founded the Academie royale et imperial des Sciences et des Lettres, opened the Bibliotheque Royal for the population and supported artistic talents with high scholarships. World fame got his porcelain collection, which however had to be sold by Emperor Joseph II to pay off his debts. Duke Albert began in 1776 according to the concept of conte Durazzo to set up an encyclopedic collection of prints, which forms the core of the world-famous "Albertina" today.

1816 declared to Fideikommiss and thus in future indivisible, inalienable and inseparable, the collection 1822 passed into the possession of Archduke Carl, who, like his descendants, it broadened. Under him, the collection was introduced together with the sumptuously equipped palace on the Augustinerbastei in the so-called "Carl Ludwig'schen fideicommissum in 1826, by which the building and the in it kept collection fused into an indissoluble unity. At this time had from the Palais Tarouca by structural expansion or acquisition a veritable Residenz palace evolved. Duke Albert of Saxe-Teschen was first in 1800 the third floor of the adjacent Augustinian convent wing adapted to house his collection and he had after 1802 by his Belgian architect Louis de Montoyer at the suburban side built a magnificent extension, called the wing of staterooms, it was equipped in the style of Louis XVI. Only two decades later, Archduke Carl the entire palace newly set up. According to scetches of the architect Joseph Kornhäusel the 1822-1825 retreaded premises presented themselves in the Empire style. The interior of the palace testified from now in an impressive way the high rank and the prominent position of its owner. Under Archduke Albrecht the outer appearance also should meet the requirements. He had the facade of the palace in the style of historicism orchestrated and added to the Palais front against the suburbs an offshore covered access. Inside, he limited himself, apart from the redesign of the Rococo room in the manner of the second Blondel style, to the retention of the paternal stock. Archduke Friedrich's plans for an expansion of the palace were omitted, however, because of the outbreak of the First World War so that his contribution to the state rooms, especially, consists in the layout of the Spanish apartment, which he in 1895 for his sister, the Queen of Spain Maria Christina, had set up as a permanent residence.

The era of stately representation with handing down their cultural values found its most obvious visualization inside the palace through the design and features of the staterooms. On one hand, by the use of the finest materials and the purchase of masterfully manufactured pieces of equipment, such as on the other hand by the permanent reuse of older equipment parts. This period lasted until 1919, when Archduke Friedrich was expropriated by the newly founded Republic of Austria. With the republicanization of the collection and the building first of all finished the tradition that the owner's name was synonymous with the building name:
After Palais Tarouca or tarokkisches house it was called Lorraine House, afterwards Duke Albert Palais and Palais Archduke Carl. Due to the new construction of an adjacently located administration building it received in 1865 the prefix "Upper" and was referred to as Upper Palais Archduke Albrecht and Upper Palais Archduke Frederick. For the state a special reference to the Habsburg past was certainly politically no longer opportune, which is why was decided to name the building according to the in it kept collection "Albertina".
Picture: The "Wedgwood Cabinet" after the restoration: Picture: the "Wedgwood Cabinet" in the Palais Archduke Friedrich, 1905
This name derives from the term "La Collection Albertina" which had been used by the gallery Inspector Maurice von Thausing in 1870 in the Gazette des Beaux-Arts for the former graphics collection of Duke Albert. For this reason, it was the first time since the foundation of the palace that the name of the collection had become synonymous with the room shell. Room shell, hence, because the Republic of Austria Archduke Friedrich had allowed to take along all the movable goods from the palace in his Hungarian exile: crystal chandeliers, curtains and carpets as well as sculptures, vases and clocks. Particularly stressed should be the exquisite furniture, which stems of three facilities phases: the Louis XVI furnitures of Duke Albert, which had been manufactured on the basis of fraternal relations between his wife Archduchess Marie Christine and the French Queen Marie Antoinette after 1780 in the French Hofmanufakturen, also the on behalf of Archduke Charles 1822-1825 in the Vienna Porcelain Manufactory by Joseph Danhauser produced Empire furnitures and thirdly additions of the same style of Archduke Friedrich, which this about 1900 at Portois & Ffix as well as at Friedrich Otto Schmidt had commissioned.
The "swept clean" building got due to the strained financial situation after the First World War initially only a makeshift facility. However, since until 1999 no revision of the emergency equipment took place, but differently designed, primarily the utilitarianism committed office furnitures complementarily had been added, the equipment of the former state rooms presented itself at the end of the 20th century as an inhomogeneous administrative mingle-mangle of insignificant parts, where, however, dwelt a certain quaint charm. From the magnificent state rooms had evolved depots, storage rooms, a library, a study hall and several officed.

Image: The palace after the demolition of the entrance facade, 1948-52
Worse it hit the outer appearance of the palace, because in times of continued anti-Habsburg sentiment after the Second World War and inspired by an intolerant destruction will, it came by pickaxe to a ministerial erasure of history. In contrast to the graphic collection possessed the richly decorated facades with the conspicuous insignia of the former owner an object-immanent reference to the Habsburg past and thus exhibited the monarchial traditions and values of the era of Francis Joseph significantly. As part of the remedial measures after a bomb damage, in 1948 the aristocratic, by Archduke Albert initiated, historicist facade structuring along with all decorations was cut off, many facade figures demolished and the Hapsburg crest emblems plunged to the ground. Since in addition the old ramp also had been cancelled and the main entrance of the bastion level had been moved down to the second basement storey at street level, ended the presence of the old Archduke's palace after more than 200 years. At the reopening of the "Albertina Graphic Collection" in 1952, the former Hapsburg Palais of splendour presented itself as one of his identity robbed, formally trivial, soulless room shell, whose successful republicanization an oversized and also unproportional eagle above the new main entrance to the Augustinian road symbolized. The emocratic throw of monuments had wiped out the Hapsburg palace from the urban appeareance, whereby in the perception only existed a nondescript, nameless and ahistorical building that henceforth served the lodging and presentation of world-famous graphic collection of the Albertina. The condition was not changed by the decision to the refurbishment because there were only planned collection specific extensions, but no restoration of the palace.

This paradigm shift corresponded to a blatant reversal of the historical circumstances, as the travel guides and travel books for kk Residence and imperial capital of Vienna dedicated itself primarily with the magnificent, aristocratic palace on the Augustinerbastei with the sumptuously fitted out reception rooms and mentioned the collection kept there - if at all - only in passing. Only with the repositioning of the Albertina in 2000 under the direction of Klaus Albrecht Schröder, the palace was within the meaning and in fulfillment of the Fideikommiss of Archduke Charles in 1826 again met with the high regard, from which could result a further inseparable bond between the magnificent mansions and the world-famous collection. In view of the knowing about politically motivated errors and omissions of the past, the facades should get back their noble, historicist designing, the staterooms regain their glamorous, prestigious appearance and culturally unique equippment be repurchased. From this presumption, eventually grew the full commitment to revise the history of redemption and the return of the stately palace in the public consciousness.
Image: The restored suburb facade of the Palais Albertina suburb
The smoothed palace facades were returned to their original condition and present themselves today - with the exception of the not anymore reconstructed Attica figures - again with the historicist decoration and layout elements that Archduke Albrecht had given after the razing of the Augustinerbastei in 1865 in order. The neoclassical interiors, today called after the former inhabitants "Habsburg Staterooms", receiving a meticulous and detailed restoration taking place at the premises of originality and authenticity, got back their venerable and sumptuous appearance. From the world wide scattered historical pieces of equipment have been bought back 70 properties or could be returned through permanent loan to its original location, by which to the visitors is made experiencable again that atmosphere in 1919 the state rooms of the last Habsburg owner Archduke Frederick had owned. The for the first time in 80 years public accessible "Habsburg State Rooms" at the Palais Albertina enable now again as eloquent testimony to our Habsburg past and as a unique cultural heritage fundamental and essential insights into the Austrian cultural history. With the relocation of the main entrance to the level of the Augustinerbastei the recollection to this so valuable Austrian Cultural Heritage formally and functionally came to completion. The vision of the restoration and recovery of the grand palace was a pillar on which the new Albertina should arise again, the other embody the four large newly built exhibition halls, which allow for the first time in the history of the Albertina, to exhibit the collection throughout its encyclopedic breadh under optimal conservation conditions.

The palace presents itself now in its appearance in the historicist style of the Ringstrassenära, almost as if nothing had happened in the meantime. But will the wheel of time should not, cannot and must not be turned back, so that the double standards of the "Albertina Palace" said museum - on the one hand Habsburg grandeur palaces and other modern museum for the arts of graphics - should be symbolized by a modern character: The in 2003 by Hans Hollein designed far into the Albertina square cantilevering, elegant floating flying roof. 64 meters long, it symbolizes in the form of a dynamic wedge the accelerated urban spatial connectivity and public access to the palace. It advertises the major changes in the interior as well as the huge underground extensions of the repositioned "Albertina".

Ministerio de la Producción evalúa implementar un CITE Forestal y Agropecuario en la región Cajamarca
El ITP realizó durante dos meses un levantamiento de información y halló que existe una masa crítica de mypes y productores forestales y agropecuarios con una demanda potencial significativa, que necesita ser potenciada a través de servicios tecnológicos.
Este CITE será útil para darle valor agregado a los productos más representativos de la región, en particular aquellos de la cadena láctea.
La ministra de la Producción, Rocío Barrios, se reunió esta mañana con el Gobernador Regional, Mesías Guevara, para dialogar sobre temas relacionados al desarrollo productivo de Cajamarca.
En la reunión, Barrios informó que el Instituto Tecnológico de la Producción (ITP) realizó durante dos meses un levantamiento de información en la región y halló que existe una masa crítica de mypes y productores que necesita capacitación y asistencia técnica para potenciarlas y acompañarlas en su ingreso al mercado.
“Queremos materializar un plan de trabajo que permita acompañar a Cajamarca en su desarrollo productivo. Es una región muy rica y con potencial, el desafío es intervenir como Estado para darle valor agregado a sus mejores productos, con la intención que puedan generar empleo y se conviertan en un motor de crecimiento”, destacó.
CITE Forestal y Agroindustrial
La titular de PRODUCE sostuvo que se va evaluar la puesta en marcha de un CITE Forestal y Agroindustrial en la región, que en principio funcione como una Unidad Técnica (UT).
Indicó que en las próximas semanas debería iniciarse la intervención a través de la Red de CITE existente, así como el establecimiento de plazos para la posterior implementación del nuevo CITE, con el apoyo del Gobierno Regional de Cajamarca.
“Solicitamos al GORE que nos permitan un lugar habilitado para el local del CITE y su compromiso de apoyar este proyecto”; añadió.
Asimismo, precisó que desde el próximo mes el ITP podría realizar talleres y capacitaciones en la región a través de CITE Cedepas Norte y CITE madera, así como la posibilidad de que mypes cajamarquinas realicen pasantías.
Actividades protocolares
Durante su visita a Cajamarca, la ministra Rocío Barrios participó en la feria Fongal, que promueve la participación de productores de café y cacao con el objetivo de conquistar nuevos mercados a nivel nacional e internacional.
La tradicional feria agropecuaria, agroindustrial, artesanal y turística de Cajamarca, se realiza del 23 al 30 de julio con la intención de mostrar a la población local y a los turistas nacionales y extranjeros, a los mejores expositores y productores de esta región.
De igual manera, estuvo presente en el lanzamiento de la estrategia Cero Papel, a la cual destacó. “En solo seis meses este GORE está dando un salto digital muy importante y los felicito.

Under the terms of the Conventional Forces Europe Treaty (CFE), states had to reduce numbers of equipment held over agreed levels. There were several authorised methods available to states, UK opted for explosive demolition. The UK reduction liability was quite small, so reduction operations were limited. This one took place at Otterburn Ranges, where the Royal Engineers had great fun placing charges in the approved places on the vehicles to blow them in accordance with the treaty. JACIG (Joint Arms Control Implementation Group) inspectors checked the work and more importantly, the finished result to ensure treaty compliance. The tanks then started a second career as Otterburn Ranges hulks.

REEVE, WILLIAM ALBERT, lawyer, jp, and educator; b. 4 Jan. 1842 in Toronto, son of William Reeve and Sarah Bielby; m. June 1866 his first cousin Sarah Theresa Bielby in Little Falls, N.Y., and they had nine children; d. 2 May 1894 in Toronto.
William Albert Reeve’s parents met and married in York County, Upper Canada, in 1832, shortly after they had immigrated from England. William Sr took up farming but soon turned to the manufacture of farm implements in Toronto. The family was nonconformist in religion and reform-minded in politics. William Reeve died in 1846, leaving his widow with a large family and a meagre estate.
Like his closest siblings, Richard Andrews and John, who became prominent physicians and medical educators, William Albert attended Victoria College, Cobourg. He studied there from 1856 to 1858, graduated from the University of Toronto in 1861, and then enrolled as a student of the Law Society of Upper Canada. He was apprenticed to Stephen Richards of Toronto, but later shifted his articles to Byron Moffatt Britton of Kingston. Admitted to practice as a solicitor on 24 Nov. 1864, he was called to the bar in Michaelmas term 1865. Reeve commenced practice that year in Napanee in association with William Henry Wilkison, crown attorney for Lennox and Addington and a jp. He succeeded Wilkison in these positions in 1869, but in 1882 resigned to return to Toronto.
Shortly before his return Reeve had become counsel to the prestigious law firm of Beatty, Chadwick, Thomson, and Blackstock, but that association was short-lived. He spent time in the mid 1880s practising criminal law on his own and as a partner of James A. Mills, and occasionally served as counsel to the Law Society in disciplinary matters. Perhaps most important, he became a part-time lecturer and examiner in criminal, maritime, and tort law at Trinity College and at Osgoode Hall in 1882, and was renewed by the Law Society as one of its nominal instructors in each of the next six years. He was appointed qc in October 1885.
In February 1889, by resolving to reinstitute at Osgoode Hall a program of mandatory lectures to complement law-office apprenticeship, the society’s benchers brought to a temporary conclusion a controversy about the place of classroom instruction in legal education in Ontario. The principalship of the school, at least the fourth operated out of Osgoode Hall since its opening in 1832, was first offered to Samuel Henry Strong* of the Supreme Court of Canada, who declined. It was then offered to the relatively unknown Reeve, who accepted. The reasons for his appointment, on 3 July, remain obscure. His former Kingston principal, B. M. Britton, and two of Reeve’s contemporaries at Toronto’s closely knit criminal bar, Britton Bath Osler* and D’Alton McCarthy, were among the benchers who hired him. Reeve’s first assignment was to spend two months that summer touring Columbia, Harvard, Yale, and Boston University with benchers Edward Martin and Charles Moss*. Reeve’s favourable observations about the renaissance in legal education in the United States were blended with his understanding of William Blackstone’s Commentaries on the laws of England to form the basis for his diplomatic inaugural address on 7 Oct. 1889.
Unlike his successors, Newman Wright Hoyles, John Delatre Falconbridge*, and Cecil Augustus Wright*, Reeve met with a favourable reception in most relevant constituencies during his four years as principal. The prevailing interpretation of his tenure is that much of the backwardness sometimes said to have characterized legal education under the Law Society’s auspices in the 20th century might have been avoided had Reeve’s administration not been cut short by his sudden death in 1894 from heart failure at age 52. The developments upon which this assessment are based include the casting of the first-year curriculum along the lines of Christopher Columbus Langdell’s pioneering efforts at Harvard in the 1870s to emphasize such aspects of private law as contracts and real property, the tentative introduction of American Socratic teaching and the case method of instruction, the gradual doubling of the school’s part-time teaching staff and tripling of the number of lectures offered annually, the creation of a well-stocked library for students, and extensive alterations to accommodate an expanding student body.
The placing of instruction on a secure footing was orchestrated by Reeve under the scrutiny of the Law Society’s legal education committee, chaired by Charles Moss. Reeve’s academic freedom was limited by its control over staff appointments, curriculum, examination questions, textbooks, admissions, and discipline as well as its structuring of the school’s timetable around the exigencies of apprenticeship. Reeve was thus more like a salaried steward than an academic dean. His school, however, proved to be the society’s first permanent one. Reeve himself was the society’s first full-time educator, and apparently the second in post-confederation Canada after Richard Chapman Weldon* of the Dalhousie law school. Yet unlike such prominent part-time teachers of criminal law in 19th-century Canada as John King*, Sir Henri-Elzéar Taschereau*, William Badgley*, or Jacques Crémazie*, Reeve neither participated in law reform projects nor published in his field. Except for his inaugural address and a couple of reported judicial decisions he argued as counsel, he does not seem to have written so much as a letter to an editor. But the inaugural address is an eloquent and intriguing 12 pages of scholarship that stand out for their perceptive and non-parochial character in the context of Ontario’s uninspired legal culture of the late 19th century.
Reeve’s reputation must therefore be based upon his essay and upon his implementation of a monopolistic, hybrid régime of apprenticeship and non-university classroom training, which pre-empted or undercut the teaching of law in Ontario’s universities and remained intact until 1957. He also appears to have figured significantly in his family’s transition over three generations from local, non-conforming cottage industrialists to internationally established doctors, educators, and Anglican clerics.

Shah Fraz Khan is the principal of the school and a Quality Assurance Team member who has trained at the Aga Khan University’s Professional Development Centre, North as part of the the Aga Khan Foundation’s School Improvement Programme in Northern Pakistan. Shah has been implementing the tactics, strategies and methods he learnt as part of his training at his school and the results speak for themselves. Aside from greater student, teacher and community participation, grades have increased dramatically. In 2015 the number of students passing exams was only 64%. By 2016 this rose to 66% and by 2017 this shot up to 92%. In 2018, Shah’s school won a ‘School of the Year’ award in recognition of these achievements. We spoke to Shah about some of the things he learnt as part of AKF’s School Improvement Programme and how he has used these learnings and experiences to transform his school, faculty and students into such high performers. QUOTES: In the past, teachers were teaching in the traditional style meaning lecture style and rote learning. Academic results were not good.
The first thing I learnt at the AKU PDC, N was about the importance of creating a School Development Plan.
Before we were not involving other stakeholders like parents. We learnt that we should involve all stakeholders - parents, student and School Management Committee members as well as others.
Then after consultation, we learnt to make the plan.
Without involving parents, we don’t have information about their expectations.
Previously it was thought that parents didn’t go to government schools but we have proved this false! Now in one month they come three times!
ECD was another main theme we learned. Previously, I was unaware of this. I came to know that we should concentrate on children between 1 - 2 years old because their brain develops very rapidly during this time. 90% of the brain develops within the first five years. We should start to educate children when they are two years old not five.
After my training at AKU’s PDC, N, we came back to conduct trainings with all the teachers about what we had learnt. We conducted training in seven schools. Each school received three days of training.
It was a wonderful experience at AKU’s PDC, N to interact with teachers from other regions, to share experiences and learn from each other and learn new strategies.
Now our teachers here have become self-directed learners, working to improve their teaching skills.
Dr Muladad (head of AKU’s PDC, N) really inspired us. He told us that we teachers are “the architects of the nation” and that “we need to build our capacities to support students to respond to the challenges of the world.”
We are proud to see the change here. If you work hard, change happens.
If there was one message I would send to other teachers about this experience it would be “the SIP programme will change your school completely, you have to go to the AKU PDC, N, it is such a brilliant opportunity.”

Illustrated is the new Arnold Clark concept for Skoda Edinburgh completed this week –13th January 2011. From a standing start Space Projects designed, detailed, contract managed and implemented this completely bespoke centre in twelve weeks including the stripping out of the existing structure.
From the bespoke rugs, chair materials, customer consultation areas, lighting specification, mechanical and electrical layouts, removing of the rear of the building to dealing with a seemingly impossible height issue towards the front of the property, all problems required quick practical head on thinking in order to deliver a trading unit to the client on time.
Splitting the unit on the diagonal coupled with the ramped entranceway deep into the retail space the customer is immediately greeted by an unusual, almost birds eye perspective of displayed vehicles upon arrival, making the transition into the space much more impactful than would normally be the case within a car showroom. The drama is further enhanced by an amphitheatre type staircase at the top of which cars are displayed in a fanned shaped pattern, feature car rotating in the background before then being bounced onto the reception desk, customer consultation areas and lounge area beyond. With hints and flashes of corporate green throughout the environment has been designed to be fresh, bright, modern, efficient, and customer friendly, and if a wait of any kind is required the rear of the unit has been opened up to offer an unrivalled 180° view of the firth of forth which we challenge any dealership to beat on any kind of day.

Kate taught chess rules during her math class today.
What started out two or three students ended up being a crowd. Kate taught the rules of chess during her math class. It's going over well.
Today was a great day at the Fab Lab. The students were asking me what I games I liked to play, and I said chess. I've been wanting to make a chess set with the laser cutter anyway.
We designed up a simple chess set that would fit 8 sets on the 24" x 12" laser cutter and cut them out. We pulled together a group to peel of the backings and to make boards.
Our first inclination was to use the chess piece negatives as a board stencil. The idea was to tape them off and spray paint, but we ran out of spray paint and so used markers. In practice we decided to go checker board.
The lessons went into darkness, and the students were using LED lights to keep playing.
A good day.
With Navaratri complete, there was still one more night to sum it up. Dussehra is celebrated on the tenth night, and is the final celebration of Goddess Durga’s victory over the tyranny of demons, as well as a time when we celebrate our beloved satguru, Paramahamsa Vishwananda.
A great yagna took place with rituals celebrating Divine Mother, including the chanting of mantras to vanquish negativity and implement protection for everyone. After that, we venerated our satguru with a Maha-abhishekam of Gurudev Himself, and then Gurudev distributed blessings and prasad to each person present.
In His final comments, Gurudev reminded us that the enemies or demons we've been talking about all week are actually on the inside of us, especially pride and ego. We ask the Mother to defeat those demons inside us, to cleanse us and to increase the love for the Divine within us, so that we never forget about the Lotus Feet of the Lord.
Jai Ma! Jai Gurudev!

Paranapiacaba: Origem: Wikipédia, a enciclopédia livre.
Por concessão, um grupo inglês explorou o sistema ferroviário na Serra do Mar. E o primeiro sistema implementado foi o sistema funicular: com cabos e máquinas fixas. A primeira linha, com onze quilômetros de extensão, foi inaugurada em 1867 pelo grupo São Paulo Railway. Ela começou a ser construída em 1862 e teve como um dos maiores acionistas e idealizadores o lendário Barão de Mauá. Em 1859, ele chamou o engenheiro ferroviário britânico James Brunlees, que veio ao Brasil e deu viabilidade ao projeto. A execução de tal projeto foi de responsabilidade de outro engenheiro inglês, Daniel Makinson Fox. Um ponto curioso é que pela instabilidade do terreno, a construção da estrada de ferro foi quase artesanal. Não se utilizou explosivos por medo de desmoronamento. As rochas foram cortadas com talhadeiras e pequenas ferramentas manuais. Paredões de até 3 metros e 20 centímetros de altura foram construídos ao logo do traçado da estrada de ferro. A segunda linha começou a funcionar em 1900. Além de dar mais força ao sistema, os cabos e as máquinas fixas economizam energia para a operação dos trens. No entanto, vários acidentes eram registrados, principalmente pelo rompimento dos cabos. Havia uma espécie de freio, a tenaz, que agarrava os cabos para evitar a saída dos trens dos trilhos. Nem sempre o sistema, no entanto, funcionava de maneira satisfatória. Em 1956, um grande acidente foi evitado pelo maquinista na época, Romão Justo Filho, nascido em Paranapiacaba no mês de março de 1911, filho de maquinista também. Se a composição descarrilasse, cerca de 150 pessoas poderiam perder a vida. Através da utilização correta do sistema da tenaz, Romão foi “agarrando” aos poucos o cabo até que o trem parasse.
Os cabos do locobreque levavam desenvolvimento e riqueza para a região do ABC Paulista e de Santos. Tanto é que a companhia inglesa criou em 1896 uma vila essencialmente de ferroviários, com construções de madeira no estilo inglês. Em 1907, a Vila foi chamada de Paranapiacapa, mas até 1945 a estação continuou a ser chamada de Alto da Serra. A Vila possuía todos os recursos da época para os maquinistas, fiscais e “foguistas” – responsáveis pela alimentação da fornalha da máquina fixa e da máquina dos trens. Além de um mercado, de um posto de saúde, de um vagão-ambulância e até um vagão funerário, onde o velório era feito dentro da composição entre Santos e Paranapiacaba, os funcionários possuíam um centro de recreação, o União Lira Serrano, e um Campo de Futebol. No União Lira Serrano eram exibidos filmes, shows musicais e realizados bailes temáticos. A concessão da linha da Serra do Mar não foi apenas glórias e desenvolvimento. Fatos até hoje não explicados satisfatoriamente marcaram a história dos trilhos por onde circularam os Locobreques. Exemplos são os incêndios da Estação da Luz, dois dias antes da primeira etapa da concessão dos ingleses terminar, em 1946, e na velha estação de Paranapiacaba, em 1981. Antes mesmo do incêndio, a estação já havia sido desativada em 1977 e substituída pelo prédio atual. O relógio estilo inglês foi poupado no incêndio e deslocado para uma torre mais alta que a anterior. Nos dois incêndios, tanto na Estação da Luz quanto em Paranapiacaba, a suspeita principal é de motivação criminosa. Milhões de reais foram gastos para a reconstrução da Estação da Luz, que passou por décadas ainda sentido os efeitos do incêndio. Tanto é que ela teve de ser restaurada. A obra de restauração completa foi entregue somente em 2004, data dos 450 anos da cidade de São Paulo. A Estação da Luz teve três etapas fundamentais: Ela foi inaugurada em 1867, num pequeno prédio na região central da capital paulista. A demanda de passageiros foi aumentando aos poucos, e cerca de 15 anos depois o pequeno prédio foi demolido e um outro maior foi construído. A cidade crescia muito rapidamente e a estação teve de aumentar ainda mais. Em 1890 começaram as obras da estação na configuração atual. Em 1900, o segundo prédio antigo foi demolido e em 1901, a nova estação foi inaugurada. Obras constantes de modificações e ampliações foram realizadas ao longo das décadas na Estação da Luz, já que além da demanda de passageiros ser maior, o número de linhas férreas urbanas também cresceu. Antes mesmo do Locobreque, na Serra do Mar, uma primitiva máquina de madeira, também tracionada por cabos fazia o transporte entre os cinco patamares. Era a Serrabreque. Durante a operação da Serrabreque, Barão de Mauá era um dos administradores. Posteriormente, na vila de Paranapiacaba, os ingleses, no alto de uma subida, construíram uma mansão, que servia de centro de controle operacional. Apelidada pelos ferroviários de "Castelinho", a posição do local proporcionava uma privilegiada visão do sistema e de toda a estrutura da vila de Paranapiacaba. O sistema ferroviário da Serra do Mar era composto por diversos túneis, que eram alvos de lendas e histórias assombradas disseminadas pelos próprios ferroviários. Algumas dessas lendas tiveram origem no fato de muitos operários terem morrido na construção desses túneis.
Pátio ferroviário, estações e relógio:
A São Paulo Railway inaugurou sua linha férrea em 16 de fevereiro de 1867. Servia como transporte de passageiros e meio de localizada na então freguesia de São Bernardo. No ano de 1898, foi erguida uma nova estação com madeira, ferro e telhas francesas trazidos da Inglaterra. Esta estação tinha, como característica principal, o grande relógio fabricado pela Johnny Walker Benson, de Londres, que se destacava no meio da neblina muito comum naquela região. Com o aumento do volume e peso da carga transportada, foi iniciada em 1896 a duplicação da linha férrea, paralela à primeira, a fim de atender à crescente demanda. Essa nova linha, também denominada de Serra Nova, era formada por 5 planos inclinados e 5 patamares, criando um novo sistema funicular. Os assim chamados novos planos inclinados atravessavam 11 túneis em plena rocha, enfrentando o desnível de 796 metros que se iniciava no sopé da serra, em Piaçagüera, no município de Cubatão. O traçado da ferrovia foi retificado e suavizado e ampliaram-se os edifícios operacionais. A inauguração deu-se em 28 de dezembro de 1901. A primeira estação foi desativada e reutilizada, posteriormente, como cooperativa dos planos inclinados. A 15 de julho de 1945, a "Estação do Alto da Serra" passa a se denominar "Estação de Paranapiacaba". A 13 de outubro de 1946, a São Paulo Railway foi encampada pela União, criando-se a "Estrada de Ferro Santos-Jundiaí". Somente em 1950 a rede passa a unir-se à Rede Ferroviária Federal. Em 1974, é inaugurada o sistema de cremalheira aderência. No ano de 1977, a segunda estação foi desativada, dando lugar à atual estação. O relógio foi transferido do alto da estação anterior para a base de tijolo de barro atual. A 14 de janeiro de 1981, ocorreu um incêndio na antiga estação, destruindo-a completamente. O sistema funicular foi desativado em 1982. Em 2010, o Correio fez lançamento de selo postal ostentando o patrimônio ferroviário de Paranapiacaba.
Museu do funicular:
Trata-se da exibição das máquinas fixas do quinto patamar da segunda linha e a do quarto patamar da primeira linha, que transportavam o trem por meio do sistema funicular.
No museu, há, também, a exposição de diversos objetos de uso ferroviário, fotos e fichas funcionais de muitos ex-funcionários da ferrovia.
O locobreque:
O "locobreque" tinha a função de frear a composição na descida da serra e simultaneamente empurrava outra composição que subia. O cabo entre as duas máquinas passava por uma grande roda volante, chamada de "máquina-fixa" que ficava em cada um dos cinco patamares. Do nome inglês original, loco-brake, a máquina funcionava pela queima de carvão ou madeira numa fornalha, abastecida pelo foguista, que trabalhava ao lado do maquinista. As máquinas "locobreque" foram construídas em 1901 por Robert Stephenson & Co. Ltd. O sistema funicular proporcionava maior economia de energia gasta pelo "locobreque" e possibilitava o desempenho do trem nos aclives e declives. Havia uma inclinação de 8 graus entre cada um dos cinco patamares. Quando subia a Serra do Mar, o "locobreque" empurrava os vagões, que ficavam na frente da máquina. Quando descia, ele segurava os vagões, que ficavam atrás da máquina. Como o trem não tinha marcha-ré, havia um sistema chamado popularmente de "viradouro", através do qual os funcionários invertiam o sentido da locomotiva, girando a máquina em torno de si mesma. Antes do "locobreque" havia uma primitiva máquina de madeira, também tracionada por cabos, que fazia o transporte entre os cinco patamares. Era o "serrabreque". Durante a operação do "serrabreque", o Barão de Mauá ainda era um dos financistas da companhia. Até a metade do século XX, o transporte ferroviário era sinônimo de luxo. E um dos marcos foi o trem Cometa, que fazia a linha Santos – São Paulo. O trem possuía serviço de bordo e poltronas leito, como as de ônibus. Além dele, também havia os trens Estrela, Planeta e Litorina (Semi-luxo).
Museu do castelo:
Essa residência, também denominada de "Castelinho", situa-se entre a Vila Velha e a Vila Martin Smith. Localizada no alto de uma colina, com uma excelente vista privilegiada para toda a vila ferroviária, foi construída por volta de 1897 para ser a residência do engenheiro-chefe, que gerenciava o tráfego de trens na subida e descida da Serra do Mar, o pátio de manobras, as oficinas e os funcionários residentes na vila. Sua imponência simbolizava a liderança e a hierarquia que os ingleses impuseram a toda a vila; ela é avistada de qualquer ponto de Paranapiacaba. Dizia-se que de suas janelas voltadas para todos os lados de Paranapiacaba, o engenheiro-chefe fiscalizava a vida de seus subordinados, não hesitando em demitir qualquer solteiro que estivesse nas imediações das casas dos funcionários casados. No decorrer de mais de um século de uso, foram feitas várias reformas e tentativas de recuperação de seu aspecto original; as maiores reformulações foram realizadas nas décadas de 1950 e 1960. Foi restaurado pela prefeitura de Santo André em parceria com a World Monuments Fund.
Casas dos engenheiros:
Característica da arquitetura hierarquizada de Paranapiacaba, as casas habitadas pelos engenheiros e suas famílias eram de alto padrão. Grandes e avarandadas, foram construídas em madeira nos tempos da São Paulo Railway, com plantas baixas individualizadas; depois, em alvenaria nos tempos da Rede Ferroviária Federal, com mesmo padrão de plantas. Muitas sofreram reformas em vários momentos, principalmente com a chegada da RFFSA. Uma das caracteríticas que chama a atenção é a cobertura do imóvel, pois somente com estudos elaborados pelos conselhos de reconhecimento, concluiu-se que o material das telhas não era ardósia, e sim fibrocimento, introduzidos provavelmente a partir da década de 50 entre alguma das reformas que sofreram.
Casas de solteiros:
Características da arquitetura hierarquizada de Paranapiacaba, as casas de solteiros eram conhecidas como barracos. Foram construídas em madeira, exceto duas em alvenaria. Essa tipologia foi criada pela São Paulo Railway, e a Rede Ferroviária Federal deu continuidade, construindo-as em alvenaria. A planta dessas casas possui
dormitórios, sanitários e cozinha para pequenas refeições, serviam para alojar o grande fluxo de homens solteiros, que preenchiam as vagas de ferroviários. Havia poucos sanitários e chuveiros, já que os trabalhadores se revezavam em turnos.
