Crews lowered this 100-foot span of temporary pedestrian walkway into place in August. It ties to the existing walkway and will be in use while the new walkway is being built right next to it.
On Jan. 4, 2018, crews remove temporary shoring from the northern area of the southbound pier in the South Talbot Road exit area. This work is part of ongoing construction for the I-405/SR 167 Interchange Direct Connector Project in Renton.
I can never understand why contractors leave so many of their roadsigns behind after the works are completed, and they have upped and gone?
Built up as a fixed-gear so I can shovel some miles onto it before painting it, boxing it, and sending it off to (approximately) the east coast.
NOBR AKES -- I have yet to braze on the canti (we agreed to not do centerpulls) posts, brake and chainstay bridges, or the wiring ports for internal wiring. When I get the brakes onto this thing (and get a half link to tighten the chain; geared bicycle w/ vertical dropouts, so I can't push the rear wheel back and forth to get the right chain tension) I'll drop fenders onto it and loop it further from home than the approximately 1800 feet I took it w/o anything but my legs to stop the thing.
A barrel vault in the Hagia Sophia Grand Mosque/Hagia Sophia Cathedral (Holy Wisdom or Logos), Istanbul, Turkey, 28 October 2009.
The Hagia Sophia was built in 537 in what was then Constantinople, the capital of the Eastern Roman Empire (or Byzantine Empire). It was the state church of the Empire and remained a Roman Catholic/Church of the East cathedral until 1054 when the Eastern Orthodox Church split from Roman Catholicism. When the Byzantine Empire was temporarily displaced by the Latin Empire of the Crusaders in 1204-61 it reverted to Roman Catholicism but after that became Eastern Orthodox again until Constantinople fell to the Ottoman Turks in 1453 when it was converted to a Mosque and minarets added.
Following the fall of the Ottoman Empire at the end of WWI, Turkey became a secular Republic and in 1931-35 the Hagia Sophia was renovated as a museum - only for it to be changed back to a mosque in 2020.
It should be noted that its dedication is not to Saint Sophia but to logos, the second person of the Holy Trinity who represents the Wisdom of God, Sophia being the Latin translation of the Greek word for Wisdom.
When built it was the world’s largest interior space and one of the first buildings to have a pendentive dome. It was designed by the Greeks Isidore of Miletus and Anthemius of Tralles on geometric principles and is considered the first masterpiece of Byzantine architecture. It set the pattern for Orthadox churches and even influenced Islamic mosques, such as the Blue Mosque of Istanbul. It was the largest cathedral in the world until Seville Cathedral was built in 1520.
There can be many reasons for tooth #decay or #cavities. The top ones include the consumption of #sugary #foods, not practicing good oral hygiene, and having too much of the #bacterial presence in the oral cavity.
Tooth decay results in the following problems.
•Holes in the tooth
•Stains that seem brown or black
•Hypersensitivity
•Sharp pain in the tooth
One way to prevent or treat such situations is to have a #dental filling, which aims at replacing damaged parts of teeth. Most dental fillings are permanent, but your #dentist may want to treat your tooth decay with a temporary filling.
What is a temporary filling?
A temporary filling is just what its name suggests. It is not meant to last forever, but it may be a semi-permanent solution. You will need to visit your dentist to have it replaced with the permanent filling eventually.
When do you need temporary fillings?
Several conditions may necessitate the use of temporary fillings. The most significant reason your dentist may want to use this option is that it is a quick fix. If you have a cavity that is causing extreme pain, and your dentist cannot go for the lengthy procedure involved in placing a permanent filling, you may be a candidate for the temporary filling. In other words, it is much like an #emergency #treatment.
You may need it after the root canal procedure when the dentist has to seal the hole. The dentist will use a temporary filling to seal your tooth and ask you to come back after a few days to have this temporary filling replaced with the permanent one.
Materials used in the making of temporary fillings
The temporary filling is not meant to last for several days because it consists of softer materials. The reason makers use such composition is that the temporary filling needs to remain easy to remove. Materials used in the making of temporary fillings may include the following.
•Cavit
•Zinc phosphate cement
•Zinc oxide eugenol
•Intermediate restorative materials
•Glass ionomers
A permanent filling matches the color of teeth, while temporary fillings have a different color from that of teeth. The purpose of keeping this color difference is to make the removal of the filling easier.
How long does this filling last?
Temporary fillings are not meant to last for longer durations, meaning that if you keep them for a long time, they will wear off eventually. The softer material of this filling will crack, causing the filling to fall out if it is not replaced on time.
The exact duration for which the temporary filling lasts may vary from person to person. It generally lasts for a few weeks, but it may remain undamaged for a few months.
The procedure involved in placing a temporary filling
The process of placing a temporary filling is generally quicker due to the kind of material used. Sometimes, it may take less than 30 minutes.
•The dentist will use a numbing agent to desensitize your teeth, gums, and surrounding area before the procedure.
•Then, he will remove any decay with the help of a drill. This step may also involve a root canal, depending on the underlying reason.
•The dentist will prepare the filling material to fill the cavity.
•In the final step, he will remove any excess filling material to shape the tooth.
The filling may take a few days to harden enough to allow you to start eating and drinking. You may also begin brushing and flossing by that time.

I watched this stream running out down the beach at Ogmore to the Bristol Channel with waves washing over it every few seconds for some time fascinated. Each time a wave receded the bank of the stream had shifted an inch or so to the right and as the remaining water on the sand drained into the stream a hundred tiny sand valleys were redrawn, never the same twice.

Kumbakonam, also spelt as Coombaconum or Combaconum in the records of British India, is a town and a special grade municipality in the Thanjavur district in the southeast Indian state of Tamil Nadu. It is located 40 km from Thanjavur and 273 km from Chennai and is the headquarters of the Kumbakonam taluk of Thanjavur district. The town is bounded by two rivers, the Kaveri River to the north and Arasalar River to the south. According to the 2011 census, Kumbakonam has a population of 140,156 and has a strong Hindu majority; but it also has sizeable Muslim and Christian populations. Kumbakonam is known as a "temple town" due to the prevalence of a number of temples here and is noted for its Mahamaham festival which attracts people from all over the globe.
Kumbakonam dates back to the Sangam period and was ruled by the Early Cholas, Pallavas, Medieval Cholas, Later Cholas, Pandyas, the Vijayanagar Empire, Madurai Nayaks, Thanjavur Nayaks and the Thanjavur Marathas. It rose to be a prominent city between the 7th and 9th centuries AD, when it served as a capital of the Medieval Cholas. The town reached the zenith of its prosperity during the British Raj when it was a prominent centre of European education and Hindu culture; and it acquired the cultural name, the "Cambridge of South India". In 1866, Kumbakonam was officially constituted as a municipality, which today comprises 45 wards, making it the largest municipality and second largest local civil body in Thanjavur district.
ETYMOLOGY
The name "Kumbakonam", roughly translated in English as the "Pot's Corner", is believed to be an allusion to the mythical pot (kumbha) of the Hindu god Brahma that contained the seed of all living beings on earth. The kumbha is believed to have been displaced by a pralaya (dissolution of the universe) and ultimately came to rest at the spot where the town of Kumbakonam now stands. This event is now commemorated in the Mahamaham festival held every 12 years. Kumbakonam is also known as Baskarashetram and Kumbam from time immemorial and as Kudanthai in ancient times. Kumbakonam is also spelt as Coombaconum in the records of British India. Kumbakonam was also formerly known by the Tamil name of Kudamukku. Kumbakonam is also identified with the Sangam age settlement of Kudavayil.
HISTORY
The region around Kumbakonam was inhabited as early as the Sangam Age (3rd century BC to 3rd century AD). The present-day Kumbakonam is believed to be the site of the ancient town of Kudavayil where the Early Chola king Karikala held his court. Some scholars identify Kumbakonam as the site of the fabled prison of Kudavayir-kottam where the Chera king Kanaikkal Irumporai was imprisoned by the Early Chola king Kocengannan. Kumbakonam is identified with the town of Malaikūrram which had served as the Chola capital as early as the 7th century and with the town of Solamaligai which had also served as a Chola capital. According to the Sinnamanur plates, Kumbakonam was the site of a battle between the Pallava king Sri Vallabha and the then Pandya king in 859 and between the Pandya king Srimara Pandya and a confederacy of the Cholas and Gangas.
Kumbakonam came into limelight during the rule of the Medieval Cholas who ruled from the 9th century to the 12th century. The town of Pazhaiyaarai, 8 km from Kumbakonam was the capital of the Chola Empire in the 9th century.
Following the decline of the Chola kingdom, Kumbakonam was conquered by the Pandyas in 1290. Following the demise of the Pandya kingdom in the 14th century, Kumbakonam was conquered by the Vijayanagar Empire. Krishnadevaraya (1509–29), the emperor of Vijayanagara visited the town in 1524 and is believed to have bathed in the famous Mahamaham tank during the Mahamaham festival. Kumbakonam was ruled by the Madurai Nayaks and the Thanjavur Nayaks from 1535 to 1673 when it fell to the Marathas. Each of these foreign dynasties had a considerable impact on the demographics and culture of the region. When the Vijayanagar Empire fell in 1565, there was a mass influx of poets, musicians and cultural artists from the kingdom.
According to the chronicles of the Hindu monastic institution, the Kanchi matha, the matha was temporarily transferred to Kumbakonam in the 1780s following an invasion of Kanchipuram by Hyder Ali of Mysore. When Tipu Sultan invaded the east coast of South India in 1784, Kumbakonam bore the brunt of his invasion. The produce fell sharply and the economy collapsed. Kumbakonam did not recover from the calamity till the beginning of the 19th century.
Kumbakonam was eventually ceded to the British East India Company in 1799 by the Thanjavur Maratha ruler Serfoji II (1777 -1832) and reached the zenith of its prosperity in the late 19th and early 20th century when it emerged as an important center of Brahminism, Hindu religion and European education in the Madras Presidency. The opening of the Suez Canal in 1869 fostered trade contacts with the United Kingdom. In 1877, railway lines were completed linking Kumbakonam with the ports of Madras, Tuticorin and Nagapattinam. The Tanjore district court was established in Kumbakonam in 1806 and functioned from 1806 to 1863.
Kumbakonam continued to grow even after India's independence though it fell behind the nearby town of Thanjavur in terms of population and administrative importance. The population growth rate began to fall sharply after 1981. This decline has been attributed to limited land area and lack of industrial potential. During the Mahamaham festival of 1992, there was a major stampede in which 48 people were killed and 74 were injured. On July 16, 2004, a devastating fire accident in the Sri Krishna school killed 94 children.
GEOGRAPHY
Kumbakonam is located at 10.97°N 79.42°E. It is situated 273 km south of Chennai, 96 km east of Tiruchirappalli, and about 40 km north-east of Thanjavur. It lies in the region called the "Old delta" which comprises the north-western taluks of Thanjavur district that have been naturally irrigated by the waters of the Cauvery and its tributaries for centuries in contrast to the "New Delta" comprising the southern taluks that were brought under irrigation by the construction of the Grand Anicut canal and the Vadavar canal in 1934. It has an average elevation of 26 metres. The town is bounded by two rivers, the Cauvery River on the north and Arasalar River on the south.
Although the Cauvery delta is usually hot, the climate of Kumbakonam and other surrounding towns is generally healthy and moderate. Kumbakonam is cooler than Chennai, the capital of Tamil Nadu. The maximum temperature in summer is about 40 °C while the minimum temperature is about 20 °C. Kumbakonam receives an annual rainfall of 114.78 cm every year. The region is covered with mainly alluvial or black soil which is conducive for rice cultivation. Other crops grown in Kumbakonam include mulberry, cereals and sugarcane.
The town of Kumbakonam is surrounded by extensive paddy fields. Methods of irrigation were considerably improved following the opening of the Mettur Dam in 1934. The fauna of the Cauvery Delta is limited to cattle and goats. The town is situated at the western flank of the Kumbakonam-Shiyali ridge which runs along the Kollidam river basin separating the Ariyalur-Puducherry depression from the Nagapattinam depression. This granular ridge projects further eastwards penetrating the Puducherry depression and forms a hard layer of cretaceous rock underneath the sedimentary top soil.
TEMPLES

It is one of the "Divya Desams", the 108 temples of Vishnu revered by the 12 Alvar saint-poets. The Ramaswamy temple, which has scenes from the Hindu epic Ramayana depicted on its walls, was constructed by Govinda Dikshitar, the minister of successive Nayak rulers, Achuthappa Nayak (1560–1614) and Raghunatha Nayak (1600–34). He added a commercial corridor between the temple and the older Chakrapani temple, which in modern times is called Chinna Kadai Veethi, a commercial street in the town.
Pilgrims from all parts of India take a holy dip once every 12 years during the Mahamaham festival in the Mahamaham tank. An estimated 2 million pilgrims participated in the festival during the 2004 event. Govinda Dikshitar constructed the sixteen mandapams (shrines) and stone steps around this tank.
Kumbakonam also has a number of mathas. The Sri Sankara matha of Kanchipuram was moved to Kumbakonam during the reign of Pratap Singh (1739–63) and remained in Kumbakonam until the 1960s.

Atomized Paint
How to body paint with an air brush:
Airbrush Series 3 of 8
STEP THREE

I use 3 to 12 PSi on the face and around the eyes; up to 15 PSI for face painting or special F/X makeup for a sheer finish and between 15 to 20 PSI for body applications.
