The precise identity of this Valentine Mark IX is not clear, all identification marks having been removed many years ago. It stood outside the Army Base at Long Kesh (later known as the Maze Prison) in Northern Ireland for many years, subsequently moving to Lisanelly Camp, Omagh. It was acquired by Vickers Defence Systems and restored to running order in Newcastle using the engine from the Museum’s Valentine Archer. In due course it was offered to the Museum on loan and ultimately, in March 2002, was gifted to the Museum. It carries the number “T123358” on the turret which is correct for the type but not necessarily for this actual vehicle. (Source: Museum Vehicle Record).

This Valentine is in running order and has taken part in various events including the Tanks in Action display in August 2000, and Tankfests 2002, 2004, 2006 and 2008. In about 2010/11 it appeared briefly in new markings, then was repainted in a sand and brown camouflage scheme and with a new registration number painted on the turret.

* Controversy surrounds this seemingly exact and precise measurement of distance covered. Broken-boot Brett has a different data set, analyzed through the filter of one who knows the limitations of GPS:

 

From: Brett

Hey all,

 

Hope you guys are all feeling good this morning. I posted my GPS tracks from the hike into the Trip 1 folder. I find it interesting too look back at the path I actually took on a trip.

"2012_Conditioning_GoogleEarth.jpg"

"2012_Conditioning_Topo.jpg"

 

My GPS says we went 12.8 miles total, and averaged about 2 mph uphill and 3 mph on flats or downhill.

 

A note about GPS tracks; originally mine came up with over 13 miles, but when we were in the canyon eating lunch it drifted around quite a bit. Once I removed the obviously erroneous points it brought the mileage down some. Needless to say we covered some good ground and everybody did a great job.

 

Sierra Club WTC Group Five, Winter 2012

With precise attention to detail and using dimensions and specifications from the original rifle, the craftsmen at Turnbull Mfg. Co have re-created one of the most famous Winchester rifles ever produced. The production of this “TR Model 1876” will be limited to no more than 25 rifles. Each rifle will be individually numbered TR01-TR25 and will come in a custom display case. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of each rifle will benefit the Doug Turnbull Restoration Conservation Laboratory at the National Firearms Museum. Specifications: 45-75 caliber, button magazine, fancy pistol grip butt stock, 28" 1/2 round, 1/2 octagon barrel, steel grip cap, cheek piece stock, H-pattern checkering, checkered steel buttplate, Freund rear sight, sporting front sight, gold inlaid stock oval, color case hardened receiver.

The precise location of that first church has been lost. The present building dates from the time of Pope Sixtus III (432 - 440) and contains many ancient mosaics from this period. Its form so exactly follows the conventions of an imperial basilica it has at times been taken for one.[9] The Athenian marble columns supporting the nave are even older, and either come from the first basilica, or from another antique Roman building; thirty-six are marble and four granite, pared down, or shortened to make them identical by Ferdinando Fuga, who provided them with identical gilt-bronze capitals.[10] The 14th century campanile, or bell tower, is the highest in Rome, at 240 feet, (about 75 m.). The basilica's 16th-century coffered ceiling, to a design by Giuliano da Sangallo, is said to be gilded with Inca gold presented by Ferdinand and Isabella to the Spanish pope, initially brought by Christopher Columbus[citation needed], Alexander VI (something which factually is erroneous, since the Inca empire was conquered during the reign of Charles V). The apse mosaic, the Coronation of the Virgin, is from 1295, signed by the Franciscan friar, Jacopo Torriti. The Basilica also contains frescoes by Giovanni Baglione, in the Cappella Borghese.

The Borghese (or Pauline) Chapel

The 12th-century façade has been masked by a reconstruction, with a screening loggia, that were added by Pope Benedict XIV in 1743, to designs by Ferdinando Fuga that did not damage the mosaics of the façade. The wing of the canonica (sacristy to its left and a matching wing to the right (designed by Flaminio Ponzio) give the basilica's front the aspect of a palace facing Piazza Santa Maria Maggiore. To the right of the Basilica's façade is a memorial representing a column in the form of an up-ended cannon barrel topped with a cross: it was erected by Pope Clement VIII immediately after the St. Bartholomew's Day massacre of Protestants, though today it is reputed to celebrate the end of the French Wars of Religion [1].

The Marian column erected in 1614, to designs of Carlo Maderno is the model for numerous Marian columns erected in Catholic countries in thanksgiving for remission of the plague during the Baroque era. (An example is the Holy Trinity Column in Olomouc, the Czech Republic). The column itself is the sole remaining from Constantine's Basilica of Maxentius and Constantine in Campo Vaccino, as the Roman Forum was called until the 18th century [2]; Maderno's fountain at the base combines the armorial eagles and dragons of Paul V.

White lion Hotel

The precise age and character of the tiled mosaic pub sign is currently not public knowledge. But the city council has already promised to clean the sign and preserve it.

Councillor Jim O’Boyle, Cabinet Member for Jobs and Regeneration, has been quoted as saying: “Officers are currently working to see if we can lift the mosaic in one piece, and if we can, we want to incorporate it in some way as part of the final design for the Upper Precinct.”

The White Lion building that was finally demolished in 1955, with its distinctive mock-Tudor frontage, appears to have been first constructed in 1921. It replaced an older building of the same name, on the same site, which would have been the meeting place of Joseph Levi and his friends.

Albertina

 

Egon Schiele met the writer and collector Arthur Roessler in 1909. These two portrait studies testify to the artist's interest in his subject's precise physiognomy. Like in the portrait of Eduad Kosmack, the subtly worked eyes lend the portrayed subject a penetrading gaze. The tree-quarter pencil portrait drawing shows Schiele's paternal friend and patron as a person self-confidently at peace with himself with his hands places proudly on his hips: a kind of portrait traditionally characterizing a determined man of action.

 

Schiele lernt den Publizisten und Sammler Arthus Roessler im Jahr 1909 kennen. Die zwei Porträtstudien zeigen das Interesse des Künstlers an der präzisen Physiognomie. Wie beim Bildnis Eduard Kosmacks sind bei der Kopfstudie die Augen fein herausgearbeitet und geben dem Porträtierten einen eindringlichen Blick. Die dreiviertelfigurige Bleistiftzeichnung zeigt Schieles väterlichen Freund und Förderer als eine selbstbewusst in sich ruhende Persönlichkeit, die stolz die Arme in die Hüften stemmt. Ein Porträttypus, der in der traditionellen Auffassung einen entschlossenen Tatmenschen charakterisiert.

 

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.

Picture: The "audience room" after the restoration: Picture: The "balcony room" around 1990

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.

Image: The palace after the Second World War with simplified facades, the rudiment of the Danubiusbrunnens (well) and the new staircase up to the Augustinerbastei

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".

I'm guessing a lot, because I can't read the emblem on the side. Ii think it says the word CUSTOM and then something else. Obviously, from the tailgate; it's a Ford, but could someone please help me with year and model so I can place this picture in the correct group/pool. I'm just making guesses so far.

 

I was invited to post it in Ford Trucks 1973 - 1979 (pool), which I gladly did, but I would like to know more precisely what model and year it was.

 

Thanks, Delina

Pub History

 

THE ORIGINS OF THE FAT CAT

 

Part 1: The Earliest Records

 

The precise date of the opening of the pub now known as The Fat Cat is not known. The first lease of the land in our possession, which covers "various premises and dwelling houses on land next to Cotton Mill Walk" was dated October 1st 1832. It covered the land now occupied by the pub and the beer garden. Perhaps there was a pub included in that description, but we do not know. What is known is that the original pub did not have a toilet block and that land as well as the beer garden contained a number of houses.

Cotton Mill Walk still exists, it is the narrow cobbled lane by the side of the pub.

A later lease of 1852 makes mention of the "beerhouse known as The Kelham Tavern", the name by which the pub was originally known.

Alma Street appears to have been built in early 1855.

It was named after the Battle of the Alma, a major battle in the Crimean War that took place on 20th September 1854.

The first name of a beerhouse keeper that can be traced to the premises was Abraham Cook in 1852.

In Melville & Co's Commercial Directory of Sheffield for 1859 the name had changed to Alma Hotel and Abraham Cooke was still the victualler, or licensee as we would call him today.

The name Alma was retained until 21st August 1981. The designation of 'hotel' had been removed, but in 1981 all of the upper rooms were numbered and had operating locks, suggesting that it had remained as a commercial hotel for many years.

From the many historical documents in our possession (including 17 leases) we know that William Stones Brewery purchased The Alma in 1912.

 

Part 2: 1914 - 1981

In August 1914 Messrs Wm Stones applied for planning permission to extend The Alma Hotel.

The extension (which now includes the ladies toilet) was diagrammed to include a scullery, pantry and coal room. Up to that point there was only one toilet, which was outside. (No gender discrimination then!)

At that time the room that is now the bar room was divided into a Public Bar (with a door on the corner) and a Smoke Room next to the toilet.

The room, which is now the No Smoking Room, was known as the Tap Room.

The upstairs room was known as The Club Room.

Adjoining the end of the existing corridor and storeroom was a row of houses.

Therefore the current wall to the beer garden, which looks quite ancient, was built after this date. So was the gateway that is now across Cotton Mill Walk.

 

On 23 December 1952 Wm Stones got planning permission to further extend The Alma Hotel. Two floors were to be built above the current toilets, a new toilet was to be built in what is now the beer garden and the room which is now the No Smoking Room was to be extended into the room which is now the kitchen. The then four hotel bedrooms would have been extended to eight..

Although approval was granted these work were never undertaken.

I can't remember the precise chronology now, but by 1980 FLF Lodekkas were getting thin on the ground. I would think that, in Bristol, only the Gloucester Road services and the 87/88 were still worked by these vehicles. On Friday 2nd May I walked the route from Kingswood into the city, snapping as I went. I had spent seven years working on this route, the busiest of the Bristol city services, but since I had moved on to new pastures it had been extended at either end. The extension to California Farm had followed the ending of the Bristol Joint Services agreement with Bristol Corporation. This had led to the disappearance of the Hanham Local Services, and city services in the east Bristol suburbs were revised to "fill the void". Here we are looking citywards along Church Road, Redfield, from the Blackswarth Road traffic lights. Chalks Road off left. By 1984 the 87/88 had become the last bus route anywhere in the country still worked by FLF Lodekkas.

When was the world's first railway laid? No one is quite confident on a precise date but simple rails have been used to guide vehicles for centuries, definitely as far back as the middle ages and possibly even in ancient Greece.

 

What is certain is that in the early 1600s a Nottinghamshire businessman called Huntingdon Beaumont came to Northumberland and laid rails from collieries near Blyth to a shipping point on the coast.

 

His waggonway used horses hauling wooden waggons on wooden wheels on wooden rails, however this was not a financial success. It did though provide the spark of progression from primitive wooden rails over short distances, to a railway network which would change Britain and the world forever.

 

Tyneside Roads

 

From the mid 1600 onwards waggonways and the Tyneside coal industry became linked so closely that they were known throughout the rest of Britain as 'Tyneside Roads'. A network of lines linked collieries on both sides of the Tyne to the river.

 

It is no coincidence that the North East was the area where waggonways took greatest hold, because canal building was impossible due to deep valleys and steep hills. What set the rail systems of Tyneside apart from all others was its use of the flanged wheel - a key element of the modern railway as we know it.

 

A revelation

 

When the Tanfield Railway - or waggonway as it was known at the time - was built in 1725, it was a revelation. Its massive engineering was unlike anything else in its era, or even since the Roman Empire. It was a triumph of engineering over nature, a clear signal that a new industrial age was upon the world, and that railways would play a massive part.

 

First laid down more than a quarter of a century before the first railway officially sanctioned by government, over 75 years before the first steam locomotive and a whole 100 years earlier than the Stockton and Darlington Railway, the Tanfield Railway is the world's oldest railway. We will be the first railway to celebrate our tricentenary in 2025.

The Panther mosaic is one of the most beautiful mosaics discovered in Milan. Dated III century A.D., it was found inside a Domus built nearby Missori Square, under ‘San Giovanni in conca (means little valley)’ church.

 

The mosaics in the ancient Romans house were a sign of the social status of families and usually were typical of the rich houses, the Domus.

 

Originally, the mosaic covered the whole floor surface like a carpet and it is a kind of highly refined example probably committed by a rich Roman family. As visible in the picture, the panther is just a part of what remains of the mosaic, which probably embed other emblems. In ancient times the panther figure was associated to Dionysus cult, as the Mosaics with Dionysus and Panther (found in the Domus of Ortaglia in S. Giulia Monastery, Brescia), dated I century A.D.

The mosaic design follows a geometrical structure well precise, which alternates black decorative triangles to a two-colored plait. It is made with various type of stones and it is distinguished by the precision with which the pieces were cut.

Lower Queen Anne is a neighborhood in Seattle, Washington, at the base of Queen Anne Hill. While its boundaries are not precise, the toponym usually refers to the shopping, office, and residential districts to the north and west of Seattle Center. The districts to the west of the Center are also known as Uptown. The neighborhood is connected to Upper Queen Anne—the shopping district at the top of the hill—by an extremely steep section of Queen Anne Avenue N. known as the Counterbalance, in memory of the cable cars that once ran up and down it.

 

While "Lower Queen Anne" and "Uptown" are rarely used to refer to the grounds of Seattle Center itself, many of Seattle Center's leading attractions abut the neighborhood; these include KeyArena (home of the Seattle Storm of the WNBA), the Exhibition Hall, McCaw Hall (home of the Seattle Opera and Pacific Northwest Ballet), the Intiman Playhouse (home of the Intiman theater company), and the Bagley Wright Theater (home of Seattle Repertory Theater), as well as the Mercer Arena.

 

Lower Queen Anne also has a three-screen movie theater, the Uptown, and On the Boards, a center for avant-garde theater and music.

 

Largely because of its proximity to Seattle Center, Lower Queen Anne is home to some 100 restaurants, bars, and fast-food locations, such as Pagliacci Pizza, Dick's Drive In, Nielsen's Danish Pastries, & The Mecca Cafe. Nestled on the side streets amongst the apartment and condo communities are an array of retail shops such as Peridot, Juniper Flowers and Choice Linens.

 

It is also home to numerous small-to-medium-sized high-tech companies.

The precise location is Mucking, site of an important Roman to Anglo Saxon era settlement and industrial site, excavated around the 1970s. 4M47 London Gateway - Hams Hall.

Montage of a visualization of a model of temperature changes from 2014 to 2099. The left image is 2014 and the center is (gratuitously precise) 31 December 2099. The right image is the delta between the two images.

 

Original caption: On June 9, 2015, NASA released data showing how temperature and rainfall patterns worldwide may change through the year 2100 as a result of growing concentrations of greenhouse gases in Earth’s atmosphere. The 11-terabyte data set is freely available to the public and shows projected changes in response to different scenarios of increasing carbon dioxide. The high-resolution data—which can be viewed at the spatial scale of individual cities and towns, and at time scales down to a single day—will help scientists and civic planners conduct climate risk assessments to better understand the local effects of global change.

 

“NASA is in the business of taking what we’ve learned about our planet from space and creating new products that help us all safeguard our future,” said Ellen Stofan, NASA chief scientist. “With this new global data set, people around the world have a valuable new tool to use in planning how to cope with a warming planet.”

 

The maps above show model projections of maximum air temperatures near the ocean and land surface on the June solstice in 2014 and 2099. The maps were constructed from the NASA Earth Exchange Global Daily Downscaled Projections (NEX-GDDP) data set, which combines historical measurements with data from 21 general circulation model simulations in the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (The CMIP5 model runs were developed in support of the Fifth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.) Shades of red depict temperatures up to 48 degrees Celsius (118 degrees Fahrenheit) above zero, with blue shades representing temperatures down to 48°C below zero (-54°F). Turn on the image comparison tool and note how some regions are significantly warmer in 2099 than in 2014.

 

The new NEX-GDDP model projections show how global temperature (above) and precipitation (not shown) might change under different greenhouse gas emissions scenarios, including a “business as usual” scenario based on current trends and an extreme case with a significant increase in emissions. The projections provide a detailed view down to a resolution of 0.25 degrees (25 kilometers or 16 miles) and cover the time period from 1950 to 2100.

 

The new data set is a product of the NASA Earth Exchange (NEX), a big-data research platform within the NASA Advanced Supercomputing Center at the Ames Research Center. NEX pulls together state-of-the-art supercomputing, Earth system modeling, workflow management, and NASA remote-sensing data. NEX data and analysis tools are available to the public through the OpenNEX project on Amazon Web Services. OpenNEX is a partnership between NASA and Amazon, Inc., to enhance public access to climate data.

 

“This is a fundamental data set for climate research and assessment with a wide range of applications,” said Ramakrishna Nemani, NEX project scientist. “NASA continues to produce valuable community-based data products on the NEX platform to promote scientific collaboration, knowledge sharing, and research and development.”

Precise focusing is underestimated when pursuing the target to achieve the sharpest image.

Find the precise Tiger's Eye Mine location using the "Map" option of this photo.

The Mines are located 2 miles to the west of the Griquatown.

 

For a long time Tiger's Eye was considered to form via replacement of fibrous mineral crocidolite with silica. In other words it was assumed to be a pure pseudomorph agate.

 

However, recent research [i] claims Tiger's Eye to be not an agate but a mineral formed by the so called "crack seal vein filling process", i.e. when crocidolite fibers were repetitive engulfed and encapsulated by the quartz instead of being replaced.

 

In effect, each band of glowing color represents a different crack that opened and was filled. Each band contains a new orientation of embedded crocidolite fibers that record minute rotations of the rock as it formed.

Would you say that I'm also creating the behaviors of those that I interact with?

 

Let me explain, the accurate response to that question is yes and no. For you are not creating the expressions or behaviors or choices of another individual, but you are creating that individual being in your experience. And you are creating the participation with the other individual. You do not create another individual's reality, but in your reality it is all very precise. And in that, every individual that you interact with or that you come into contact with is very precisely placed there, in a manner of speaking. For you have very precisely in every situation attracted or drawn to you every other individual that you interact with in any capacity.

There are no precise dates for the manufacture and processing of concrete pipelines. Most publications refer to the sewage system of the " Cloaca Maxima " in Rome, whereby the Romans used large natural stone blocks - later bricks - which they built up in layers with " opus caementitium " (Roman concrete). "Roman concrete" was also used for the drinking water supply and for the construction of aqueducts. Early sewage systems are also known from other cities, such as B. from Cologne, where in April 2005 the opening of the Roman sewer into the Roman Rhine port was found during the construction of the underground. They were built from blocks of tuff or from “opus caementitium” with a shell made of greywacke .

This new ultimate wake boat combines amazing wakes, precise handling, aggressive looks and a shockingly refined interior. The view from overhead is elegance, while the water-level vantage point is complete intimidation. The SA350, SA450 and SA550 have Indmar power behind their names. These models protect and project with Supra's new Barrage Front End while the Battle Prep Transom prepares you for action. Specific hull design and perfectly matched underwater gear take wake boat handling beyond better. Elevate even further with Supra Ride System (SRS) components like 900 pounds of hard sub-floor Liquid Lead Ballast and the new loaded Roswell Pro Edge Tower. Opt for 1,300-pounds of additional Flex Ballast from the factory and swamp the competition. The epitome of convenience and customization the SA has snap-out carpet with a fiberglass floor. The intricate upholstery design is only matched by the plush feel and durability of the NANO Block Technology (NBT) Vinyl surrounding multiple densities of foam. Hand-covered accents finish the performance look and the luxurious feel. Experience SA350, SA450 and SA550 shock and awe in person at a Supra Boats dealer near you.

An amusing sign in a Toronto art supply store. I liked the combination of creative illustration and humorous text. I assume it is the solution to customers entering the wrong door.

Times are very precise - and then caveat that they may vary obviously according to the whims of the operator!
