(Wikipedia: Schanigarten is the Austro-Bavarian term for tables and chairs set up on the sidewalk in front of eating and drinking places. Unlike normal beer gardens (Gastgärten), the customers actually sit on public property. Originally, Schanigärten (pl.) referred only to Viennese coffee houses, but now the expression is used in other parts of Austria and for other types of establishments like restaurants and taverns)

The Café Landtmann in Vienna is a typical Viennese coffee house in the Ringstrasse style. It is located in the first District at the University Ring 4, corner Löwelstraße 22, and is known throughout the city.
Location
The cafe is located on the ground floor of the Palais Lieben-Auspitz called Mietwohnhauses (apartment building), in the immediate vicinity of the Burgtheater, the University of Vienna and the party headquarters of the Social Democrats and close to the Vienna City Hall with the City Hall Park, the Federal Chancellery and three ministries. The café is therefore frequented by, among other actors, politicians, civil servants and journalists and is the venue for press conferences.
History
The coffee was on 1 October 1873 of the Cafétier (café owner) Landtmann as "Vienna 's most elegant and largest café-localities" in a prominent, 1872 built corner house at the at the time also new Franzensring (so to 1919 the address of this part of Vienna's Ringstrasse) opened. The ring road was indeed opened by emperor Franz Joseph I in 1865, but still long not completed in the area of the coffee house: The city hall was under construction since 1872, but was only opened in 1883. The university main building was built 1877-1884, the Burgtheater from 1874 to 1888. The coffee was thus in his early years surrounded mainly by large construction sites.
1881 sold Landtmann his coffeehouse to the brothers Wilhelm and Rudolf Kerrl who continued it under the name Landtmann and extended it in the direction of Oppolzergasse. Rudolf soon retired from active business life, Wilhelm Kerrl led on the café alone until 1916 and then sold it, worn down by the economy of scarcity of the First World War, to Karl Anton Kraus, previously a butcher and innkeeper. He led the coffee for only five years, because in 1921 it was operated by a Hokare Ges.mbH (unlimited company) (the name stands for hotel, coffee and restoration companies). This company had to be liquidated 1925/1926.
The Café Landtmann was now bought in the fall of 1926 by Mr. and Mrs. Conrad and Angela Zauner. The new owners had it in 1929 after a design by Ernst Meller, experienced in the establishment of coffee houses, fully restored: with the preserved to this day interior which is under preservation order. Particularly striking are four wooden pillars at the entrance, which were created by Hans Scheibner and their decoration representing premiere scenes of the Burgtheater. With this elaborate interior design Landtmann consolidated its position as the most elegant café in town. In 1949, Konrad Zauner's son Erwin took the management of the café and led it on with great success.
In 1974 the company received the National Award and since then it is allowed to use the Federal coat of arms in commercial transactions. In 1976, the present owner family took the local and renovated it in 1980 again.
In the café was Robert Böck, on duty only called Mr. Robert, working for 28 years, many years as head waiter in a tuxedo, and he knew all the important guests personally. On his last working day, on 23 December 2003, many celebrities came to his departure from the cafe. Mayor Michael Häupl served Mr. Robert, who had so often served him a "little brown". To this end, he handed him the "Golden Rathausmann" "for the most famous, most discreet and most accommodating waiter of Vienna".

Details
Small stage
In the basement below the coffee was after Czeike already 1936-1938 the Cabaret 'Merry Landtmann" for the dancer Cilli Wang set up by her husband. 1953 in the basement the small stage "The Tribune" was established (since 2002: "The new stand", directed by Karl Heinz Wukow). It is one of the numerous small Viennese theaters that operate with modest public support and which offer authors, actors and directors fields of application.
Winter Garden
2007 was built a conservatory on the facade towards the castle theater, designed by Manfred Wehdorn by 1.5 million euros (Bernd Querfeld). With 87 square meters and 29 tables, the conservatory is almost as spacious as the great hall of the café; thus the capacity of the premises has been extended by a quarter.
Landtmann's Bel-Etage
2012 were opened above the café three function rooms, which are referred to as "Landtmann's Bel-Etage". One of the rooms is named after Berta Zuckerkandl, which in the house (entrance Oppolzergasse 6) from 1917 to 1938 run her famous salon, meeting place of artists, scientists and politicians.
Price of water
2013 got the coffee into media because guests who instead of ordering other beverages only want drink tap water this service no longer receive free. The scheme has been criticized partly violently. The glass of water for ordered coffee, as it corresponds to the Viennese coffee house tradition, still is served free.

Siargao Cloud 9 Daku Island Surf and Nature Camp Property For Sale www.reefbreakonline.com/surf_camp.html
Somewhere just outside of Kingman, Arizona, the heart of historic Route 66 and the gateway to many points of interest but not the town itself, there is a piece-of-pie-shaped corner lot, a little-travelled but paved highway of sorts on one side, a wide and dusty gravel road on the other. You'll find two abandoned trailer homes here. A perfunctory wire fence separates the two areas, and the corner property we are told was recently purchased for $30,000.
At first glance, one wonders how long the doll heads, mattresses, bucket car seats, blankets, and telephone handsets strewn over the desert land have been scorching in the endless searing heat. The colours are so bright and brilliant and heightened by the fiery sun, it's as though we are in some kind of solar circus. We feel seething inside and the light is oppressive. My head turns and I blink, sticky. The perspiration evaporates from my skin instantly and for the briefest of moments I don't seem to feel hot at all. A phone book lies in the tawny sand, its yellow pages flicking and snapping in a breeze that does not cool my flesh.
I do not doubt that there are legions of unhappy stories in these parts. The land, barren and unforgiving, cannot soothe weary souls; can only whittle them down until it's difficult to really do anything at all, much less live a healthy and satisfying life.
A man and his wife in a clean, white, new pick-up truck drive by us. They turn around and drive back. They ask if we are the new owners. This makes us chuckle, us city folk with our rented mid-size SUV and name-brand clothes bought cheap from the outlet mall in Vegas, our fancy digital cameras slung around our sweaty necks slick with sunscreen. But they did not judge us.
They tell us that just a few weeks earlier this had been a nice trailer. After the two girls who were renting it had left for reasons unknown, some riffraff had come by and trashed the place. I look back at the trailer and broken gate, and I wonder if the new owners will clean up the property and build their dream house here. But I can't shake the feeling that it's tainted. I can hear the endless murmurs of the ghosts of those who couldn't make a life here, steadfast and unchanging on the desert wind.

Katastralgemeinde: Innere Stadt. Das Stadtpalais des Prinzen Eugen ist ein bedeutendes hochbarockes Palais mit kostbarer Innenausstattung.

Durch den Erwerb des westlich anschließenden Hauses konnte der Bau erst 1719 abgeschlossen werden. Die Sockelzone der Außenfassade ist genutet, während die Obergeschoße durch Riesenpilaster gegliedert sind. Die drei Portale werden Lorenzo Mattielli zugeschrieben.

The Winter Palace is a new exhibition at the Belvedere in Vienna's city center
Once built for the landlord as magnificently equipped residential and representation Palace, in the 18th century by the Empress Maria Theresa acquired, anon for the Exchequer and then as the Ministry of Finance used, becomes the baroque jewel in the center of Vienna again a place for art and culture. With the opening of the new exhibition and fourth place of exhibition of the Belvedere the most important saloons of the Parade apartments of Prince Eugene of Savoy are from 18 October 2013 made ​​public. Based on the historical heritage and the extensive work of the citizen of the world, through interdependencies between the Town and Garden Palace - the Winter Palace and Belvedere Palace - which are brought together again after more than 260 years, another important art site in the center of Vienna shall be established.
After the first exhibition, to the builder to the occasion of his 350th birthday dedicated, especially the dialogue between cultural heritage and contemporary art is sought - a dispute that is already implemented very successfully worldwide in major art institutions as well as in the Belvedere Castle. Thus, the State Rooms at the Vienna Himmelpfortgasse are going to be a place of artistic encounter between Baroque interior, the collections of the Belvedere as well as contemporary art. The planned presentations arise in direct relation to the place and wring from the artists often new, created in situ and only because of the uniqueness of ambiance and history essential oeuvres. In addition to the architecture of the City Palace, the former collections of the Prince as well as those of the Belvedere are central starting points.
In the opening exhibition at the Winter Palace, a Baroque monument of international importance, are on the occasion of the 350th Birthday of Prince Eugene of Savoy in particular his biography, the architectural history of the palace and the military merits of the former landlord in focus. Selected objects of various genres fit into the existing structure of the State Rooms and underline these.

Originally he came as a penniless refugee in 1683 to the court of the Habsburgs, he died in 1736 as the owner of several castles. As a general and former diplomat, the ancient landlord got sustainable fame and fortune. Therefore, it is not surprising that he kept his military successes in the present city palace through a cycle of large-scale battle scenes from Ignace-Jacques Parrocel. Also under the displayed objects are the Collar of the Order of the Golden Fleece from the possession of the Prince, the numerous portraits of family and contemporaries, as well as precious Japanese lacquer cabinets that presents the Belvedere on loan from Torino. The use of the structure of the State Rooms by the Belvedere makes after centuries a reunion of Prince Eugene's City and Garden Palace possible. With the autumn exhibition in his first in Vienna erected residence the Prince's life shall be palpable by the means of selected exhibits. Since the Winter Palace is not a classic sober space, the dialogue between State Rooms and exhibits creates a particular tension that conveys much of that time.

The Jay Heritage Center is one of 13 sites on Westchester County's African American Heritage Trail. The Jay Property in Rye is a historic site where slaves are known to have lived and worked in the fields and gardens and where they were also emancipated by the Jay family and buried on the same land as their owners.

"It is much to be wished that slavery may be abolished. The honour of the States, as well as justice and humanity, in my opinion, loudly call upon them to emancipate these unhappy people. To contend for our own liberty, and to deny that blessing to others, involves an inconsistency not to be excused." John Jay 1786
JHC programs examine the prevalence of slavery in New York and the role of John Jay and his family in abolishing it. It has been estimated that ironically in 1776 as of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, there were over half a million slaves in the United States, throughout all 13 colonies, including 15,000 in New York.
Among its goals, the JHC hopes to be "a national focal point for a continuing conversation about the two greatest pieces of unfinished American business--race and land; meaning how we treat each other and how we treat the rest of God's creation." Tony Hiss

Right next to the Manhattan Beach IN Manhattan Beach, California - a simple (ha!) home that really stands out amid the clutter of densely-packed housing. I'd imagine this property affords very pleasant viewing of the Pacific Ocean, although when I was there, no sign of residents was apparent. I wonder if the home inside is as ornate and architecturally interesting as the exterior.
Would you say this is "nouveau riche" or maybe "nouveau vintage"? Does this home have a "style", perhaps Italianate? Upon a closer look, I think the architect planned this home to have a pre-aged appearance.
