the structure was innovative in that it was the first unsupported bridge across the Seine to be made entirely in wrought iron rather than cast iron. The low arch, only lightly cambered, was also innovative, and on 16 February 1888 it suddenly sagged by 20 cm and had to be "consolidated". - wikipedia

The Berlin Brain, located on the campus of the Free University of Berlin in Germany, is a truly unique library structure. The glass and steel edifice, which contains both active and passive energy-saving designs, is officially named the Philological Library, but has been nicknamed “the Berlin Brain” because of its resemblance to the shape of a human brain.
British architect Norman Foster designed the unusual building, which opened in 2005. The mass of the overall concrete structure acts as a thermal funnel and its double skin canopy and double floor act as an air duct and heat buffer. According to the weather, the building is either heated or cooled by water pipes embedded in the concrete slab floor. The Brain “breathes” to provide better ventilation and regulate the internal temperature by opening or closing the exterior flaps.

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA - JANUARY 9: Flames from the Palisades Fire burn a residential building on Sunset Boulevard amid a powerful windstorm on January 9, 2025 in the Pacific Palisades neighborhood of Los Angeles, California. Multiple wildfires fueled by intense Santa Ana Winds are burning across Los Angeles County. At least five people have been killed, and over 25,000 acres have burned. Over 2,000 structures have also burned and almost 180,000 people are under orders to evacuate. Apu Gomes/Getty Images/AFP (Photo by Apu Gomes / GETTY IMAGES NORTH AMERICA / Getty Images via AFP)
The 72ft structure was the brainchild of Californian artist David Best, who is famous for his temples built for the Burning Man festivals in Nevada.
He was invited to build one in Northern Ireland, where bonfires usually are a magnet for community division. Huge towers made of wooden pallets are set alight every year to celebrate the victory of King William of Orange over Catholic King James in the Battle of the Boyne in 1690. Eleventh Night often includes acts of sectarian provocation, such as the burning of the Irish flag and symbols of Catholicism.
The city chosen for the Temple was symbolic. Londonderry is a city so divided that its residents cannot even agree on its name. While it's legally Londonderry, the name preferred on the predominantly Protestant east side, the Catholic majority insists on its pre-British version of Derry.
Best said he created the Temple as a symbolic gesture for people to "share in the celebration of peace in Northern Ireland".
Over the previous week, more than 60,000 people had visited the Temple to decorate it with messages – often to loved ones who had died or were suffering.

Chandrima Uddan, also called Zia Uddan, is a public park placed on the north of Jatiyo Sangsad Bhaban complex. Crescent Lake is between these two attractions. You can access the park by walking on the bridge, which runs over the lake. The park is famous as the site of the grave of the former Bangladesh President, Ziaur Rahman, who was killed in 1981. His mausoleum is a large, impressive structure in the middle of the park. This spot is visited often by locals as well as tourists, who enjoy jogging and skating here. The park itself is a good place for relaxing and resting.
Connecting lines that may be horizontal can also be inside electrical wires. Also known as Plenum cabling, this makes connectivities between separate channels to actually telecommunication lairs or areas for working in ground via conduits, lead methods or areas for ceilings on every level. Riser Cabling is additionally generally known as up and down cabling. These connect between dens for telecommunications and tools. They are named riser cabling for the reason that these kinds rooms are normally located on other stories.

Fort Huachuca and the Bureau of Land Management welcomed the community to the new operating base for BLM's Aravaipa Veteran Firefighting Crew April 28.
Aravaipa Canyon, located northeast of Tucson, Arizona, is the crew's namesake.
Through the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' Installation Support mission, BLM signed a long-term agreement with the garrison.
"We issued a 20-year permit," said Elizabeth Brooks, a realty specialist in the Los Angeles District's Arizona-Nevada Area Office. "BLM first approached the post's Department of Public Works about suitable training, storage and maintenance facilities for the team. Then, it's our job to structure the agreement."
The Corps is steward of the fourth largest asset portfolio, by value, of all federal agencies.
Kelly Castillo, BLM Arizona State Fire Management Officer, spoke about Aravaipa.
"The crew we're talking about today is in their second season," said Castillo. "Once they attain Type I Hotshot status, they will be the only BLM-certified Hotshot crew in the southwest geographic area which includes Arizona, New Mexico and part of Texas. And, they will then be one of 12 such crews nationwide."
A hotshot crew is specially trained in wildfire suppression tactics and must meet stringent requirements established by interagency fire managers. Castillo anticipates the hand crew will reach Hotshot certification by 2019.
The predominantly military veteran Aravaipa crew was formed in November 2015 as part of BLM's emphasis on hiring veterans and in response to a nationwide increase in wildfire activity and the need for highly skilled firefighters.
Sadly, the ceremony was missing its honored guests; the crew was actively engaged in fighting the Sawmill Fire southeast of Tucson..
Title: Dumbarton Oaks Gardens: Lovers Lane Pool
Other title: Dumbarton Oaks Gardens (Washington, D.C.)
Creator: Farrand, Beatrix, 1872-1959
Creator role: Landscape Architect
Date: 1923 (constructed) 1930 (major modification)
Current location: Washington, District of Columbia, United States
Description of work: The Dumbarton Oaks Gardens were designed by the noted landscape gardener Beatrix Farrand, in cooperation with her clients Mr. and Mrs. Robert Woods Bliss, who purchased the property in 1920. The formal gardens occupy 10 acres. The major work was completed between 1921 and 1941, although changes, notably the addition of the Pebble Garden and redesign of the Ellipse, continued to be made by Mrs. Bliss, working with Ruth Havey. Endowments were established expressly for the purpose of maintaining the gardens and for supporting a program of research in landscape architecture.

This structure necklace will make a statement and will enhance any look! It’s made out of recycled card boar which I coated with latex to make it water repellent (not waterproof) and then added some coats of gold leaf paper and linen in a stone beige colour, all sealed with a leather cord in a natural colour, it holds from a golden metal chain and it has a very easy to put and take off closure plus an extension chain to fit different neck sizes.
This is a short necklace and It’s very light.
Check my profile to see where you can find this and many more goodies!!
Situated in the south west pavilion this is part of the original kitchen at Nostell Priory near Wakefield in West Yorkshire.
The kitchen is connected to the house by a long curved corridor and was used by the servants until the second world war when this part of the house was taken over by the Royal Artillery.
The photo itself is made up of three exposures all 1.3ev difference, and tonemapped in Photomatix 4.0, It was then converted to monochrome with Nik Filters Silver Efex Pro, adding structure to the overall shot a slight graduated filter was added with other Nik filters to bring back some detail in the stone floor and finally the boiler itself was selected and giver a bit more structure with Nik's Viveza filter.
Impact breccia (left) intruding granite (right) in the Precambrian of Ontario, Canada.
This outcrop consists of a clast-rich impact pseudotachylite. This is the Sudbury Breccia, which formed during one of the largest impact events in Earth history. The Sudbury Impact Structure is located in southeastern Ontario. It is ovoid in shape, about 37 miles long by 19 miles wide, but it was originally ~circular, having been laterally compressed by tectonic deformation. Before erosion and structural deformation, the structure may have been between 60 and 120 miles across. The impacting object is estimated to have been about 6 miles in size. The impact event itself occurred at 1.85 billion years ago. At that time, this part of Ontario was ocean. Computer modeling indicates that the splash wave generated by the Sudbury Impact may have reached about 30 miles high and generated a ~300 feet high megatsunami that radiated away from the target area for up to ~1800 miles. The impact punched a hole down into underlying mantle rocks.
Abundant evidence indicates that the Sudbury, Ontario area was indeed the site of an impact long ago. This includes impact breccias, shattercones, and extensive syn-formational sulfide mineralization. The sulfides are rich enough for mining to occur. In fact, the Sudbury Mining District targets the # 1 most productive nickel deposit on Earth.
At this outcrop, the clasts in the Sudbury Breccia are principally pieces of Cartier Granite, a 2.6 billion year old igneous intrusion. The dark-colored matrix is cryptocrystalline impact pseudotachylite, which formed by melting and rapid cooling.

The brick structure was the oil house for the Baileys Harbor Rear Range Light and keeper's dwelling that is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The oil house, built in 1900, is a contributing structure.
Located by the main entrance to the Sacramento State campus, Parking Structure 5 is designed to blend and complement the dense trees of the nearby arboretum. Replacing an existing surface lot, the 1,750 stall, six-level parking structure serves a campus in dire need of parking, and provides a structure exceeding the quality and efficiency of any of the previous parking facilities.
The structure’s skin creates a dialog with the surrounding trees. Combined with columnar trees, the facade is dressed with vertical fins painted in tints of green. The thousands of individual square fins are a digital representation of nature, and form patterns like leaves of a tree canopy overhead. Covering the three upper levels of the structure, precast concrete is textured with a pattern that nods to the rough bark of the birch trees in the adjacent arboretum.
Serving a sizable percentage of the campus’ parking need, automobile circulation is designed to move traffic into the structure as efficiently as possible with queuing space off-street to handle periods of high volume. Taking advantage of Clark Pacific’s Total Precast architectural concrete system, the design quality and level of material finish is second to none. Because of the increased erection speed possible with the precast solution, the overall project schedule was more aggressive and intended to be complete over a single school semester.
The technology, design, innovations, placemaking and conservation programs implemented at Parking Structure 5 allow it to achieve a Parksmart Gold certification by the Green Building Certification Institute for the U.S. Green Building Council, making it the highest-performing, most-sustainable parking structure on campus.

Unknown abandoned structure, possibly old East Nicolaus High School campus, East Nicolaus, Sutter County, California.
Not much information is available for this location, from research it appears that this structure and the surrounding properties may have been part of the East Nicolaus High School prior to a large grass fire burned it beyond repair in 1964 (some references say the fire took place in 1960).
