<p>The Church Of Holy Trinity at Cleeve in the English county of Somerset was built in 1840. It is a Grade II* listed building.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Cleeve, along with the village of Kenn, was previously part of the parish of Yatton. When the parish was divided public subscriptions were raised to build a separate church from local stone, with the Smyth Pigott family of Brockley Hall in nearby Brockley being the largest contributor. The foundation stone was laid in 1838 and the building consecrated in 1840. Cleeve became a separate parish of Cleeve with Clavenham, in 1843.</p><br>
<p>The parish Church of Holy Trinity was built in a Neo-Norman style in 1840 by George Phillips Manners. In 1888 the church was restored and renovated, and in 1898 stained glass was added to the west windows.</p><br>
<p>The parish, within the Yatton Moor benefice, is part of the Diocese of Bath and Wells and in 2005 won an award as the first Ecocongregation in the Diocese. In 2010 an appeal was launched to raise money for the repair of the church tower.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>It has a nave, north and south transepts, crossing tower and chancel. The nave has three bays with recessed bays to the north and south and a two-stage tower.</p><br>
<p>The Elias Meyers House is a private house located at 912 Baxter Street in Petoskey, Michigan. It was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.</p><br>
<p>The Elias Meyers House is a two-story front gable Queen Anne structure. A single story, hip roof entrance porch is attached to one side of the building, and a single story wing extends from the porch to the rear of the house. Decorative turned elements on the porch and on the front gable are inspired by Eastlake designs. The gable also has diagonal sheathing boards. Windows in the house are one-over-one double-hung units with decorative cornices.</p><br>
<p>The Elias Meyers House was constructed some time before 1899. It was associated with Elias Meyers, an employee and eventual foremen at the Forman & Curtis Flooring factory.</p><br>
<p>The George McManus House is a private house located at 121 State Street in Petoskey, Michigan. It was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.</p><br>
<p>The George McManus House is a 2-1/2 story Colonial Revival house with a hipped roof and a single-story addition in the rear. Each side of the roof has gabled dormers containing Palladian window units. The building is sheathed in clapboard, and has corner pilasters and a cornice on top. The front facade has an entry porch with Ionic columns. The windows have multiple vertical panes with a single-pane light on top.</p><br>
<p>The George McManus House was constructed c. 1910 for Geaorge McManus, the President of the Petoskey Garage and Sales Company, and of W.L. McManus Lumber Company. The house marries the basic Colonial Revival design with elements from the Prairie School.</p><br>
<p>The Kleines Meer , also calle the Hieve, is a lake in East Frisia. It lies northeast of Emden on the territory of the municipality of Hinte; its southwestern shore borders on the borough of Emden, its southeastern and eastern shores on the municipality of Südbrookmerland.</p><br>
<p>The Kleines Meer has an area of 93 hectare and is thus significantly smaller than the neighbouring Großes Meer ("Great Lake"), which lies within the municipality of Südbrookmerland. After sand was removed in the late 1970s, the formerly shallow lake had a maximum depth of 24 m. In July 2006 it was still up to 19 m deep, albeit in the middle of the dredged basin.</p><br>
<p>The Kleines Meer is popular as a leisure and recreation spot, especially with dinghy sailors, surfers, anglers and weekenders. Little holiday chalets, the so-called Meerbuden, have been built along the Emden, Hinte and Südbrookmerland shores. Unlike the Großes Meer, motor boats are allowed on the shortest route on the Hieve, but may not exceed 5 km/h in order to protect the natural habitat and the banks of the lake shore.</p><br>
<p>There is a link to the rest of the East Frisian waterways network along its only outlet, the Kurze Tief; this flows into the Treckfahrtstief, which, in turn, links to the canal network of the town of Emden and eventually to the River Ems.</p><br>
<p>The Wolverine Hotel, also known as the Dilworth Hotel or the Wolverine-Dilworth Inn, is a hotel located at 300 Water Street in Boyne City, Michigan. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986. It is the only hotel remaining in the Boyne area dating from the turn-of-the-century era when Boyne City was a booming lumber town.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>At the turn of the 19th century, Boyne City was the lumber capital of northwest Michigan. Related businesses opened their doors in Boyne City, employing more and more men. As the new century progressed, the city grew rapidly, from 912 residents in 1900 to 5995 residents in 1910. In 1911, a group of Boyne City residents felt the city needed a high-class hotel, a notch above the half-dozen hotels already established in the city. Forty-six residents formed the Boyne City Hotel Company, and commissioned a building to be called the Wolverine Hotel. They hired Price Brothers from East Jordan, Michigan, to construct the building. The hotel opened on February 1, 1912.</p><br>
<p>However, by the end if World War I, the timber in the area had been depleted. Businesses around Boyne City closed and residents moved. In 1936, the hotel was purchased by Wesley Dilworth, who renamed it the Dilworth Hotel. During the 1930s and 1940s, the Dilworth became known nationally for hosting the annual Boyne City Smelt Run Banquet. Dilworth sold the hotel in the mid-1940s.</p><br>
<p>The hotel changed hands multiple times, and by the 2000s was struggling. It closed in 2008. The building was purchased by an investor in 2013, with plans to rehabilitate the building.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Wolverine Hotel Hotel is a four-story Classical Revival brick structure with a flat roof. The lower two floors are rectangular in plan, measuring 76 by. The upper two floors are U-shaped. The ground floor is approximately half below grade, with the main floor above about 4 ft above grade. The walls are constructed of red/orange brick. Small white concrete blocks ornament the third-story windows. A sheet metal cornice runs around the building above the fourth-floor windows, and a parapet wall extends above that.</p><br>
<p>The hotel has three porches with square Doric columns on the north, east, and west elevations. These porches are reproductions of the original porches, which were removed at some time in the past.</p><br>
<p>On the interior, the lobby has Classic Revival pilasters projecting from the walls, and a beamed, coffered ceiling with ornamental plaster moldings. The wood is dark stained oak, and the floor is porcelain tile. This tile extends down the hallway to the main dining room, which has similar pilasters and coffered ceiling. The dining room also has glass chandeliers and a large fireplace. Another bar/dining room is located in the corner of the building, with the kitchen opposite. A frame addition to the building extends the kitchen space to accommodate freezers and coolers.</p><br>
<p>Burroughs Mountain is on the northeast slope of Mount Rainier above Glacier</p><br>
<p>Basin. It was named for John Burroughs, the naturalist, who visited the mountain</p><br>
<p>several times. The mountain was first called John Burroughs Mountain.</p><br>
<p>Burroughs was born near Roxbury, New York, in April 1837, and died in 1931.</p><br>
<p>He wrote extensively about his travels and was associated with the conservation movement. He became a well known "character" and is best</p><br>
<p>remembered for his "Nature Essay." Dictionary of American Biography, II, 330-</p><br>

<p>Burroughs Mountain is a high ridge formed from an ancient lava flow. Its three summit plateaus get progressively higher. The mountain, located within Mount Rainier National Park, is notable for alpine tundra, with plants typically seen at much higher latitudes. The tundra ground cover hugs the barren rocky plateau and has a short growing season because snow covers the ridge for much of the year in the harsh alpine climate. The unique fragile alpine tundra can be easily destroyed by people walking off the established trail.</p><br>
<p>The mountain is a popular hiking destination with grand close-up views of the Emmons Glacier, Winthrop Glacier, Inter Glacier, Fryingpan Glacier, Little Tahoma Peak, and views in all directions because most of the trail is above tree line. The trail starts at the Sunrise Historic District and loops up to First Burroughs Mountain (elevation 7160 feet) and Second Burroughs Mountain (elevation 7402 feet). Third Burroughs Mountain (7828 feet) is off-trail and about another mile beyond Second Burroughs. The loop trail is about 6.2 miles and part of this loop trail includes a short section of the Wonderland Trail. Access is limited by snow closing the Sunrise Road much of the year, and even more by ice blocking the trail above Frozen Lake. July, August, and September are the months when the Sunrise Road is seasonally open for vehicle traffic.</p><br>
<h2>Geology</h2><br>
<p>Burroughs Mountain, situated at the northeast foot of Mount Rainier, WA, exposes a large-volume (3.4 km3) andesitic lava flow, up to 350 m thick and extending 11 km in length. Two sampling traverses from flow base to eroded top, over vertical sections of 245 and 300 m, show that the flow consists of a felsic lower unit (100 m thick) overlain sharply by a more mafic upper unit. The mafic upper unit is chemically zoned, becoming slightly more evolved upward; the lower unit is heterogeneous and unzoned. The lower unit is also more phenocryst-rich and locally contains inclusions of quenched basaltic andesite magma that are absent from the upper unit. Widespread, gabbronorite-to-diorite inclusions may be fragments of shallow cumulates, exhumed from the Mount Rainier magmatic system.Origin and emplacement of the andesite of Burroughs Mountain, a zoned, large-volume lava flow at Mount Rainier, Washington, USA</p><br>

<h2>Flora</h2><br>
<p>Burroughs Mountain is renown for its accessible variety of alpine tundra plants including sedges (Cyperaceae), Saxifraga, Dwarf lupine (Lupinus lepidus), Luetkea, Antennaria, Aconogonon davisiae, Alpine yellow fleabane (Erigeron aureus), Tundra Aster (Oreostemma alpigenum), Empetrum nigrum, Arenaria lateriflora, and more.</p><br>
<h2>Fauna</h2><br>
<p>Burroughs Mountain is habitat for the marmot, pika, mountain goat, and chipmunk. Deer and the American black bear (Ursus americanus) can be found lower on the mountain in Berkeley Park.</p><br>
<p>The Pocklington Iron Age burial ground is a prehistoric cemetery discovered in 2014 on the outskirts of Pocklington in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England. Excavations carried out on an ongoing basis since then, have uncovered more than 160 skeletons and more than 70 square barrows thought to date to the Middle Iron Age that are attributed to the Arras culture, an ancient British culture of East Yorkshire. A variety of grave goods have been found along with the human remains, including weapons, beads, pots, and a rare chariot burial.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The burial ground consists of several dozen barrows located off Burnby Lane on the southeastern edge of Pocklington. They were discovered during the construction of a new housing development by David Wilson Homes. The area is known for previous Iron Age discoveries, so as a condition of planning permission, the developer was required to fund archaeological fieldwork. An initial geophysical survey of the site was carried out by the Malton-based MAP Archaeological Practice Ltd in 2014, which identified at least ten square burial mounds, each of which was situated within a small enclosure. A double-ditched trackway also was identified by an aerial survey; it is associated with eight probable square barrows and a square enclosure located north of the site. Excavations have continued since then, unearthing more than 160 skeletons and more than 74 square barrows.</p><br>
<h2>Finds</h2><br>
<p>A number of notable discoveries have been made at the site, including weapons, brooches, pots, and hundreds of amber and glass beads buried alongside human remains. In one barrow the remains of a warrior were found. He had been placed on top of his shield – the first example of a shield burial to have been found in Britain. In 2016, the well-preserved remains of another warrior aged between 17 and 23 years old were discovered. A broken sword had been placed by his side, which had probably been broken as part of a funeral ritual. The skeleton also was interred with five spears that had been used ritually to pierce the warrior&#39;s body. Four had been placed along his spine and another in his groin, probably as part of a ritual to release his spirit. Another skeleton was found with severe injuries inflicted by at least two weapons, buried face-down, and at an unusual depth. The uncommon nature of this burial may have been intended to prevent an unquiet spirit from rising to haunt the living.</p><br>
<p>In 2017, the ongoing excavations uncovered a rare chariot burial comprising an Iron Age chariot and two horses.</p><br>
<h2>Dating and analysis</h2><br>
<p>The site is believed to date to some time between the eighth to the third or fourth centuries BC. The finds have been ascribed to the Arras culture, an archaeological culture of the Middle Iron Age that is known mainly from East Yorkshire. Previous Arras culture burial sites have been typified by burials in round and square enclosures, as well as chariot burials. The area is known to have been inhabited by a Celtic tribe called the Parisi, so it is possible that the Pockington burials represent either the Parisi or their ancestors.</p><br>
<p>The Pennsylvania State Capitol Complex is a large complex of state government buildings in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. Set on more than 50 acre of downtown Harrisburg, it includes the Pennsylvania State Capitol and a landscaped park environment with monuments, memorials, and other government buildings. It is bounded on the north by Forster Street, the east by North 7th Street, the south by Walnut Street, and the west by North 3rd Street. Most of this area  is a National Historic Landmark District, recognized in 2013 as a fully realized example of the City Beautiful movement landscape and planning design of Arnold Brunner.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Pennsylvania State Capitol Complex is located in central downtown Harrisburg, four blocks east of the Susquehanna River. Its centerpiece is the Pennsylvania State Capitol, completed in 1906 to a design by Joseph Miller Huston. The capitol is a nationally recognized example Beaux Arts architecture, and is known for its interior opulence and artwork. On the east side of the capitol is the East Wing, a 1987 extension that greatly expands the building&#39;s capacity without detracting from the surrounding landscape. Flanking the East Wing to the north and south are the North and South Office Buildings, begun in 1927 and 1919 respectively; they are similarly scaled and both built of Indiana limestone in the Classical Revival style, but have slightly different styling. South of the Capitol is the Ryan Office Building, the oldest building (completed 1894) of the complex. Between the two buildings a semicircular walkway provides access to them as well as the East Wing entrance to the Capitol, with a foundain in the center.</p><br>
<p>Across Commonwealth Avenue east of the North and South Office Buildings, a pair of buildings extend the line of the North and South Buildings, with the Soldiers and Sailors Memorial Grove, a park setting with many memorials and monuments in between. On the south side of the grove is the Forum, and the Finance Building is to the north. Both continue the use of Indiana limestone and Classical Revival styling. The easternmost portion of the complex is the Soldiers and Sailors Bridge, which connects the complex to neighborhoods across the railroad tracks that run east of North 7th Street.</p><br>
<p>The complex has been extended across North Street to include the Modernist State Museum of Pennsylvania building and the adjacent Department of Transportation building.</p><br>
<h2>Development history</h2><br>
<p>Harrisburg&#39;s Capitol Hill has been the seat of Pennsylvania state government since 1822, when its first capitol building was dedicated. That structure, much altered over the 19th century. In 1893 work began on what is now the Ryan Office Building. The first capitol burned down in 1897, and its replacement was abandoned in an unfinished state in 1899 after negative public and legislative response to its exterior. The present capitol was completed in 1906.</p><br>
<p>In the 1910s the state recognized the need for additional space, and acquired the area then known as the Eighth Ward, between Commonwealth Avenue and North 7th Street. Arnold Brunner was selected to develop a master landscaping and design plan for this space, which he did using then-fashionable City Beautiful principles. Although only small portions of his vision were realized in his lifetime (he died in 1925), the resulting landscape is very much in keeping with his original plans. The principal deviation is the area now occupied by the East Wing. Brunner had planned this as a "People&#39;s Forecourt", an open space whose landscaping would tie the Capitol and the North and South Buildings together visually. In execution, the area became a parking lot serving the capitol until the East Wing was built, providing a different and more modern type of visual unity.</p><br>
<p>The Capitol building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1977, and was designated a National Historic Landmark in 2006. The latter designation was expanded to include the entire area of the complex south of North Street in 2013.</p><br>
<p>Drake Farm is a historic farmstead at 148 Lafayette Road in North Hampton, New Hampshire. Built in 1890, the main farmhouse is a well-preserved example of a connected New England farmstead. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2016.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>Drake Farm is located in northern North Hampton, on the north side of Lafayette Road (USA Route 1) east of its junction with North Road. The property consists of about 11 acre of land, most of which is now forested. The farmstead is located near the road, with an intervening grassy area adorned by a small wellhouse and a boulder-mounted historical marker. The farmstead is a classic New England 19th-century connected farmstead, with a main house, two-story ell, "back barn", and main barn. The main house is 2-1/2 stories in height and four bays wide, with a side gable roof and single-story porch. The ell is also four bays wide, but narrower and more simply decorated. The main barn is a large rectangular structure with multiple bay entrances on the street-facing ground floor.</p><br>
<p>The property was first farmed in the early 18th century, when Abraham Drake built a house near where the wellhouse stands. That house was occupied by five generation of Drakes, including a soldier in the American Revolutionary War. The present main house block was either built here in 1889-90, or was moved here then from another location; internal evidence suggests it may have been built as early as 1870. The "back barn" connecting it to the main barn is of older construction. The house remained in the Drake family until 1986; the barn has been rehabilitated for commercial uses.</p><br>
<p>The Allen Place–Lincoln Street Historic District encompasses a small neighborhood of late 19th-century housing built for white-collar service workers in southern Hartford, Connecticut. It is roughly bounded by Madison, Washington, and Vernon Streets, and Zion Hill Cemetery, and has well-preserved examples of vernacular Queen Anne and Colonial Revival architecture. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2003.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>Until the mid-19th century, the Frog Hollow area on the south side of Hartford was predominantly farmland, with some country estate houses on Washington Street, a main north-south road. By 1880, Broad Street paralleled Washington to the west, and the area between Madison and Vernon Streets had a few houses west of Washington. The area was significantly developed in the 1890s, and was essentially built out after a second major round of building in the 1910s. The houses built here were generally first occupied by lower-class white collar workers in Hartford&#39;s industries, commercial establishments, and the increasingly important insurance industry.</p><br>
<p>The historic district consists of all of the houses facing Allen Place and Lincoln Street, between Washington Street and Affleck Street, and continuing about 1/2 block further west on Allen Place. A few houses are included that face Affleck and Broad Streets, the two north-south cross streets in the district. Most of the houses are 1-1/2 to 3 stories in height, and house between one and three units. Most are of wood frame construction, although there are a few instances of brick construction. There are several places where virtually identical houses were built side-by-side, an act of economy by the builders. Most of the housing has elements of either Queen Anne or Colonial Revival styling (or some combination), although early examples have some Italianate features.</p><br>
<p>The Ambassador Apartments are a historic residential complex at 206-210 Farmington Avenue in Hartford, Connecticut. Completed in 1921, it is a significant local example of Renaissance Revival architecture, designed by the prominent local firm of Berenson and Moses. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2008.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Ambassador Apartments are located in Hartford&#39;s Asylum Hill neighborhood, just west of its downtown, on the north side of Farmington Avenue west of its junction with Sigourney Street. It is a large H-shaped building, five stories in height, its exterior consisting of load-bearing brick and cast stone walls. The front building corners consist of brick pilasters with stone capitals, with a pressed metal cornice at the roof line. The ground floor functions visually as an elevated basement, with banded stone between rectangular window openings, and round-arch entrances in the courtyard between the building wings. Second-floor windows are set in openings with bracketed cornices and sills.</p><br>
<p>The complex was built between 1917 and 1921 to a design by the prominent local architectural firm Berenson and Moses. The property was until 1912 part of the mansion estate of Pliny Jewell, owner of a local belt manufacturer. When built, its 128 apartments featured all of the latest amenities, including a parking garage for tenant vehicles and a dining hall seating 300. The then-furnished northeast wing was damaged by fire in 1920; damage was limited by firewalls, but delayed completion of the entire building. Nicolo Carabillo, the developer, failed to turn a profit, and sold the building in 1925 to avoid foreclosure. By the 1970s the building had declined in grandeur, and was acquired by the Aetna Insurance Company, whose headquarters are nearby. Aetna sold the building in 1999 after completing extensive rehabilitation to its apartments.</p><br>
<p>The Evergreen Corner Rural Historic District in Haxtun, Colorado is a 160 acre farm property, a historic district that was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2013.</p><br>
<p>In 2013, it included four contributing buildings, 11 contributing structures, one contributing site, and two contributing objects, as well as 8 non-contributing resources.</p><br>
<p>Swedish immigrant Gustav Lindholm homesteaded the property in March 1887 but died in July 1887. Henry A. Flaker, of Nebraska, bought the land in 1917 and built a barn, a house, and a tankhouse, and planted evergreens to shelter it, naming it Evergreen Corner. Flaker&#39;s farm produced winter wheat and hogs. Lawrence Heermann bought the farm in 1946 and farmed wheat and beef cattle.</p><br>
<p>According to the NRHP nomination, the district "is an excellent example of a Phillips County farmstead; a working landscape that illustrates the development of agriculture from the 1910s through the 1960s."</p><br>
<p>West San Jose School, also known as Riverview School, is a historic former elementary school in the Barelas neighborhood of Albuquerque, New Mexico. It was built in 1936–37 as a Works Progress Administration project and operated as a school until 1975. It is now part of the National Hispanic Cultural Center. The building was added to the New Mexico State Register of Cultural Properties and the National Register of Historic Places in 1996.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>West San Jose School was built in 1936–7 by the now-defunct Bernalillo County school district. The existing school in the area, South Second Street, was a converted church with only three classrooms and was in a bad location adjacent to the railyard. Due to the inadequacy of this facility, many of the neighborhood students had been forced to attend the similarly crowded Barelas School, or the East San Jose School (the latter requiring a dangerous railroad crossing). The county superintendent, Margaret Easterday, wanted to replace the Barelas and South Second Street schools with a large new facility, but had only $2,500 available for the project. Nevertheless, the district purchased land for a new school in February 1936.</p><br>
<p>Easterday initially planned to build a small two-room school as a stopgap measure, expanding it when funds allowed. However, this turned out to be unnecessary thanks to the unprecedented public works funding available from President Franklin D. Roosevelt&#39;s New Deal programs. With assistance from Governor Clyde Tingley, the school district was able to secure a grant of $53,000 from the Works Progress Administration to build the school. The construction project, using adobe bricks and traditional building methods, lasted ten months and employed 70 workers. The school opened to students in the fall of 1937, after which the South Second Street and Barelas schools were closed.</p><br>
<p>In 1949, West San Jose was absorbed into Albuquerque Public Schools along with the rest of the county system. In the late 1950s the name was changed to Riverview Elementary. Both Riverview and the nearby Coronado Elementary were closed in 1975 when a new school, Dolores Gonzales, was built. In 1977 the unused school was converted into a job skills center under the control of the Technical Vocational Institute (now Central New Mexico Community College). The school was renovated in the early 2000s and now houses the library and archives of the National Hispanic Cultural Center.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>West San Jose School is a one-story adobe building designed in the Pueblo Revival style by local architect Louis G. Hesselden. The floorplan is H-shaped with projecting wings on either side of a central block. The roofline is stepped, with a curved parapet above the projecting main entry, and the walls are stuccoed and buttressed at the corners. The classrooms are illuminated by large 9/9 sash windows, with smaller 4/4 and 2/2 windows elsewhere. The entrances to the building have double doors with transoms and sidelights.</p><br>
<p>The Colle Scravaion  is a mountain pass in the Province of Savona . It connects Castelvecchio di Rocca Barbena with Bardineto.</p><br>
<h2>Geography</h2><br>
<p>The pass stands between Monte Lingo (1103 m, West) and Rocca Barbena. Located on the main chain of the Alps it connects the basin of the Ligurian Sea (South of the pass) and the Po plain.</p><br>
<p>Its northern slopes are occupied by vast beech woods, while the southern side is warmer and drier.</p><br>
<p>The pass can be reached following the provincial road nr.52 Barreassi Calizzano. Near the saddle stands a small picnic place and, not far away from it on the southern side, an old roadman&#39;s house.</p><br>
<h2>Cycling and hiking</h2><br>
<p>The Scravaion pass is a popular cyclists climb. The road from Zuccarello is considered pleasant because even if its quite tiring it offers good views on the Riviera di Ponente and several shaded stretches It is part of a ciclist&#39;s racetrack called Anello dei tre gioghi (Ring of the three mountain passes) which also encompasses Giogo di Toirano and Balestrino pass.</p><br>
<p>Colle Scravaion is the starting point of an Alta Via dei Monti Liguri section.</p><br>
<p>49-51 Spring Street in Hartford, Connecticut is a significant local example of Richardsonian Romanesque residential architecture. It was built about 1890 for the locally prominent Allyn family; its architect is unknown. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The apartment building at 49-51 Spring Street is one of two residential apartment blocks standing on the west side of Spring Street between Garden and Myrtle Streets. The setting is now one of urban renewal, the buildings surrounded by parking lots on three sides, and Interstate 84 passing not far to the east, separating the buildings from Downtown Hartford. This building is three stories in height, built out of brick with brownstone trim. It is five bays wide, with the entrance at the center, recessed under a Syrian arch. The outer bays and center bay are topped visually by large round-arch panels, with polygonal bay windows on the first and second floors of the outer bays, and on the second floor above the entrance in the center. The building&#39;s cornice has brick corbelling, with built-out bracket-like brickwork articulating the arched panels.</p><br>
<p>The building was constructed about 1890, on land belonging to Robert Allyn, a local real estate developer whose own house stood on the same lot to the north. Of the two six-unit apartment blocks built by Allyn (the other is at 39-41 Spring Street, built about five years earlier), it is the more architecturally interesting, probably drawing inspiration from the 1875–76 Cheney Building in Downtown Hartford, which is an H.H. Richardson design.</p><br>
<p>Pine Mountain is a summit in Cartersville, Georgia. At its highest point, the mountain has an elevation of 1,562 ft. Pine Mountain contains several miles worth of hiking trails.</p><br>
<h2>Geography</h2><br>
<p>Pine Mountain is located in southeastern Bartow County. Much of land around the mountain used to be owned by businessman and politician Mark Anthony Cooper.</p><br>
<h2>Hiking</h2><br>
<p>There are two trails that ascend the mountain: the East Loop and the West Loop trails. The East Loop can be accessed from State Route 20 spur, while the West Loop trailhead is located near I-75 Exit 288. The East and West Loops are part of the Pine Mountain Recreational Area trail system and are connected to trails that lead to Cooper&#39;s Furnace near Allatoona Dam. The two trails rise over 600 feet over a course of a mile and contain several switchbacks.</p><br>
<p>The Pospeshil Theatre in Bloomfield, Nebraska was built in 1906. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.</p><br>
<p>It was a two-part commercial block building that was located at the northwest corner of Grant St. and S. Broadway. The building was 114 x in plan. It was "utilitarian in appearance" except for having "red brick arches over its windows and red brick ridges along the top of the building."</p><br>
<p>The building was deemed significant in the area of social history and performing arts history of Nebraska.</p><br>
<p>It was identified as one of 25 Nebraska historic opera house buildings worthy of intensive study in a 1988 review.</p><br>
<p>The building burned down; Bloomfield&#39;s public library was built in 2000 on the former site.</p><br>
<p>Lake Flannigan is a natural fresh water lake on King Island , situated four kilometres south of the Cape Wickham Lighthouse, in the northern locality of Wickham.</p><br>
<p>It is the largest body of water on the island. The size of the lake fluctuates significantly. In times of sustained high rainfall the length can reach almost 2 kilometres (1.2 miles), and its width in some parts can be up to 1.5 kilometres (0.9 miles). The area of the lake is usually in the region of 150 hectares (approximately 370 acres).</p><br>
<p>The floor of the lake lies 15.25 metres (50 feet) above sea-level. Reports of the depth of the water vary widely from 9.1 metres (30 feet) in 1887 to 2 metres (6.67 feet) in 2007 after a period of severe drought coupled with the previous mis-direction of drainage into the lake.</p><br>
<p>The lake is visible from Springs Road to the south, and Cape Wickham Road to the east.</p><br>
<h2>Classification</h2><br>
<p>The lake is surrounded by private farmland but is itself Crown land; part of its south eastern shore is classified as "Public Reserve".</p><br>
<p>Jennings explains that geologically the lake is classed as "a complex dune barrage lake" (Jennings, 1957, p. 62). The water in the lake drains underground to The Springs, 1.3 kilometres (0.8 miles) to the west on the coast. Water levels in the lake are affected by its complex geology, including calcareous and quartz sands, granite hills and dune formations. Natural processes, such as waves on the lake and storm winds contribute to erosion, which in turn impacts water levels.</p><br>
<p>Since Michael John Flannigan wrote his first survey report about the island in 1896, the lake has been acknowledged as being in need of some degree of government protection. Flannigan foresaw that "if the frontages of these lakes are blocked by settlers it will be detrimental to the balance of the country" (Flannigan, 1896, page 4).</p><br>
<p>The lake shores were first gazetted as a reserve in 1913, when the Tasmanian Government Gazette officially announced the creation of a sanctuary for wild fowl fringing the lake. But in July 1921 the King Island News published a letter from the government surveyor, KM Harrisson, expressing his concern that the Tasmanian Animals and Birds Protection Act 1919 would remove the previously gazetted sanctuary. However, he may have been misinformed, since the shores of the lake were protected under the Lands Act of 1911, and not under the Game Protection Act, 1907 or its successor the Animals and Birds Protection Act, 1919, which dealt with species not places.</p><br>
<p>In 2005 a Crown Land Assessment and Classification (CLAC) Project report advised that although there was scope for re-classification as a Nature Reserve under the Nature Conservation Act 2002:</p><br>
<p>It is recommended that the reserve not be proclaimed until, where there is no practical alternative, any necessary and suitable access points or arrangements, and impact protection measures to allow for stock watering have been identified. (CLAC Project Consultation Report and Recommendations, p. 9)</p><br>
<p>The King Island Biodiversity Management Plan 2012–2022 identified Lake Flannigan as habitat for the Orange-bellied Parrot (Neophema chrysogaster), which uses the area each year as a stop-over en route to Victoria, from mid-March to June and again briefly in September when returning.</p><br>
<h2>Nomenclature</h2><br>
<p>The Companion to Tasmanian History summarises the evolution of the official naming of places in Tasmania. It reveals that: "Until 1956 place names were applied by walking clubs and government bodies such as Mines Department, Hydro-Electric Commission and the Surveys Office. These names were loosely controlled by the Surveys Office with municipal councils responsible for street, road and park names within township boundaries." (Smith, 2006)</p><br>
<p>The lake has had several names:</p><br>
<h3>Big Lake</h3><br>
<p>The present Lake Flannigan was originally called Big Lake by the islanders. A scientific group, the Field Naturalists Club of Victoria, conducted an extensive field trip to the island in 1887, and published many reports about it for the next 2 years. During the trip they recorded that:</p><br>
<p>To the south of Wickham lies a large lagoon, hitherto known only by the name of the big lagoon. This we renamed Lake Dobson, in honour of Dr. Dobson, to whom the exploration party was much indebted for valuable assistance in various ways. (Field Naturalists Club of Victoria, 1889)</p><br>
<p>The Dobson referred to is the Victorian Frank Stanley Dobson (1835–1895) who, in 1884, was president of the Field Naturalists Club of Victoria.</p><br>
<p>The Field Naturalists must have failed to notify or convince the islanders or the Lands Department in Hobart of their new name for the lake, because the name Big Lake continued in use until 1911, as can be seen on the official Lands Department map of King Island drawn in that year. On the 1911 map, the name Lake Flannigan is written over the original name of the lake, which has been erased. This was customary professional practice at the time – lithographs of maps had to do many years of service and were overwritten many times with updates, until it was deemed necessary to start afresh with a new map. Thus it appears that the lake was still known as Big Lake in 1911.</p><br>
<h3>Lake Dobson</h3><br>
<p>The intention of the Victorian Field Naturalists to rename King Island&#39;s Big Lake to Lake Dobson in 1887 was never implemented.</p><br>
<p>However, in 1953 the Tasmanian Tramp reported that the name Lake Dobson had been officially assigned to a body of water in the Mount Field National Park on mainland Tasmania, as is shown in the Parks & Wildlife Service&#39;s Map of Mount Field National Park:. It is the namesake of Henry Dobson MHA (1841–1918), a prominent Tasmanian lawyer and politician, who founded the Tourist Association.</p><br>
<h3>Lake Flannigan</h3><br>
<p>Although the Lands Department had no formal responsibility for naming places in Tasmania prior to 1956, several of the staff were keenly interested in nomenclature. The surveyors field books of period are catalogued in the archives, but are not available, and the correspondence of the department does not reveal who was responsible for naming Lake Flannigan, but it may have been any or all of the following of Flannigans colleagues:</p><br>
<p>Hall: Smith (2006) writes of Hall&#39;s interest in place names: “in 1885 Leventhorpe Hall, Chief Draftsman of the Surveys Office, drew up a list of Aboriginal words to be applied to any new towns, parishes etc.". So, even in 1911, in retirement, he may have had a part in the naming of the lake after his late colleague.</p><br>
<p>Harrisson: the obituary of the District Surveyor Kenneth Montague Harrisson records that, like MJ Flannigan, he worked on King Island and it tells of his enthusiasm for naming places as he surveyed them.</p><br>
<p>Hurst: Harrissons colleague William Nevin Tatlow Hurst spoke and wrote in detail about the naming of Tasmanias places, especially in 1911. Hurst was Acting Surveyor-General from May to September 1911, whilst Counsel was overseas on government business. He was not only a colleague of Flannigan’s but also a personal friend. Flannigan witnessed Hurst’s mother’s will, in 1897 and he named Hurst as an executor on his own will in 1901, referring to him as “my friend”.</p><br>
<p>Flannigan conducted surveys on King Island several times from 1895 onwards, and bought two parcels of land there, above the Ettrick River. He was appointed as permanent District Surveyor for the island in 1899. But severe ill-health forced him to leave the island in 1901. He returned to his family (his Irish mother, Margaret O&#39;Halloran and her son from her second marriage, William Higgs) in Bendigo Victoria, and died there of tuberculosis in April 1901, aged 38.</p><br>
<p>By 1913, he had become permanently commemorated by the naming of Lake Flannigan in his honour.</p><br>
<p>The name Big Lake was transferred to a previously nameless lagoon on the edge of Colliers Swamp Conservation Area, in the southernmost locality of Surprise Bay, King Island.</p><br>
<h3>Water Bodies on King Island</h3><br>
<p>The island is very well-endowed with sources of fresh water, although some are ephemeral.</p><br>
<p>There are forty-five lakes and lagoons distributed across the island.</p><br>

<p>The house is associated with Bert and John Hobbins, who lived here in the late 1890s, along with John&#39;s wife. Bert Hobbins was a clerk at Wellington & Co., and John was a clerk at Milor & Co. By 1903, Jesse Marvin, a sawyer, was living in this house. By 1928, William Behm was the owner.</p><br>
<p>The Asylum Avenue District encompasses the institutional core of the Asylum Hill neighborhood of Hartford, Connecticut. Located just west of Downtown Hartford across Interstate 84, it includes four churches, a school, and a handful of adjacent 19th-century residences. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Asylum Avenue District is centered on a stretch of Sigourney Street, between Asylum and Farmington Avenues, both major arteries leading west from downtown Hartford. Extending east and west from that road are the institutional buildings that make up the heart of Asylum Hill. The northeastern corner of the district is marked by the Asylum Hill Congregational Church, a Gothic Revival brownstone built in 1865. It is a rare example of a Congregational church designed by Patrick C. Keely, most of whose work was for the Roman Catholic Church. At the southeastern corner is the Cathedral of St. Joseph, the cathedral church of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Hartford. It was built in the early 1960s to a design by Eggers & Higgins in the International style, replacing a Gothic brownstone designed by Keely that was destroyed by fire.</p><br>
<p>West of St. Joseph&#39;s stands the Trinity Episcopal Church, built in 1892 in the English Country Church style out of red brick. Across Sigourney Street from Trinity is the campus of the West Middle School, which includes a 1930 Georgian Revival building and an older Romanesque structure. At the northwestern corner of the district stands the Asylum Avenue Baptist Church, A Collegiate Gothic building built in 1931 on the site of an 1872 church. Between It and the Congregational Church are a row of fine houses dating to the mid-to-late 19th century Victorian period.</p><br>
<p>Prior to its development in the mid-19th-century, the Asylum Hill area was mostly farmland owned by the locally prominent Goodwin family. Francis Goodwin was rector of Trinity Church, and some of the Goodwin land was purchased for the construction of St. Joseph&#39;s. The Baptist Church came about through the initiative of Jonathan Niles, for whom Niles Street is named.</p><br>
<p>The Gerhard Fochtman House is a private house located at 1004 Waukazoo Avenue in Petoskey, Michigan. It was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.</p><br>
<p>The Gerhard Fochtman House is a 2-1/2 story frame Queen Anne structure. It is covered with narrow clapboard, with additional fishscale shingles on the gables and in an ornamental band between the first and second stories. The roof has multiple gables, with gabled bays projecting from the central mass of the house. A single story shed-roffed porch extends in the rear of the building. The windows have vertical panes set above a single light.</p><br>
<p>The house was built some time before 1899. It is significant because of its association with Gerhard Fochtman, the owner of Fochtman&#39;s Livery Barn around the turn of the century. The Fochtman family was a locally prominent family of merchants in Petoskey.</p><br>
<p>The Mitchell Lewis Building is a historic building in Racine, Wisconsin, and a former office building and automobile factory for the Mitchell Motor Company. Designed by the local architectural firm of Guilbert and Funston, it was built in 1910 at 815 Eighth Street, alongside the Chicago and North Western railroad track. After the Mitchell company went out of business in 1923, the factory was used by Nash Motors until 1929, when it was sold to the J.I. Case company, which used it as a warehouse. Later owned by Massey-Harris, it was used to build tanks during World War II. In 1960, the building was acquired by Jacobsen Manufacturing, a subsidiary of Textron, which closed the factory on June 29, 2001. Madison-based firm Gorman and Company, also responsible for the Belle Harbor lofts conversion in Racine, purchased the vacant building and converted it into apartment lofts, which opened October 13, 2004. The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places the following year.</p><br>
<p>Quitman Depot, also known as GM&O Railroad Depot, is a historic railway station located at 100 South Railroad Avenue in Quitman, Mississippi. The depot was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1994 and was designated a Mississippi Landmark in 1996.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Quitman Depot is a one-story, rectangular, wood frame structure, built around 1910. Typical of railway stations in small towns, the depot floor plan included areas for freight, a passenger waiting room, and an office for the railroad agent. The hip roof featured wide, overhanging eaves to shelter passengers and workers on the loading dock. The lower portion of outer walls was covered with board and batten wainscoting, and asbestos shingles covered the upper portion. The south elevation was dominated by a carriage porch, with an entrance door and three, double-hung sash windows on the south wall. The west elevation, facing the railroad, contained an agents bay, entrance door, double hung sash windows, two freight doors, and loading dock. The loading dock extended across the north elevation and along the east elevation for access to two additional freight doors, then ended at a projecting bay, about mid-length on the east side. The depots interior featured beaded-board walls and ceilings.</p><br>
<h2>Restoration</h2><br>
<p>By 1970, railroad operation at the depot had ceased. By 1990, the structure had become dilapidated from neglect. Historic Clarke County, Inc. acquired the depot and completed restoration in 1999, using private donations as matching funds to secure a grant from the Mississippi Department of Transportation.</p><br>
<p>The Quitman Depot houses the Clarke County Chamber of Commerce.</p><br>

<p>Lincoln School Historic Apartments, formerly Lincoln School, is a former public school and current loft apartment building in Racine, Wisconsin. Constructed in 1890, it replaced an earlier school on the other side of State Street, which had been built in 1862 and damaged by a tornado in 1883. The school opened in April 1891, with eight classrooms. An addition was made in 1908, adding eight more rooms, as well as an auditorium, stockroom, nurses room, and teachers lounge. A statue of the school&#39;s namesake, Abraham Lincoln, was erected on a triangular plot next to the school in 1923. A chimney was added in 1932, with a boiler house built in 1936. The school closed in 1981, and was used for storage by the school district until it was sold to the Toldt-Hennessy Group of Brookfield in 1988. In September 1, 1991, the first tenants moved into the newly converted Lincoln School Historic Apartments, a loft building geared toward seniors.</p><br>
<p>The Giogo di Toirano  is a mountain pass in the Province of Savona . It connects Toirano with Bardineto.</p><br>
<h2>Toponimy</h2><br>
<p>In Italian the main meaning of giogo is yoke, but it also mean gap, mountain pass; Toirano is a village on the southern side of the pass.</p><br>
<h2>Geography</h2><br>
<p>The pass stands between Monte Sebanco (983.9 m, West) and Bric Pagliarina (1.213 m, a subpeak of Monte Carmo). Located on the main chain of the Alps it connects the basin of the Ligurian Sea (South of the pass) and the Po plain.</p><br>
<p>Its northern side is mainly occupied by beech woods, while the southern side is drier and warmer. Near the saddle stands a picnic place and some information panels about the peculiarities of the surrounding environment. The pass can be reached following the provincial road nr.60 Borghetto Santo Spirito - Bardineto.</p><br>
<h2>Cycling and hiking</h2><br>
<p>The Giogo di Toirano is a popular cyclists climb. The road from Borghetto Santo Spirito is considered an engaging climb and offers good views on the Italian Riviera. Car traffic is very sparse but also motorbikers highly appreciate this stretch of road It is part of a ciclists racetrack called Anello dei tre gioghi (Ring of the three mountain passes) which also encompasses Colle Scravaion and Balestrino pass.</p><br>
<p>Giogo di Toirano is the starting point of an Alta Via dei Monti Liguri section.</p><br>
<p>Big Chief Restaurant, located at 17352 Old Manchester Road in Wildwood, Missouri, currently operates under the name Big Chief Roadhouse. It was also formerly known as Big Chief Highway Hotel and Big Chief Dakota Grill. The restaurant opened in 1928 as part of a tourist camp that included overnight accommodations for travelers on the newly opened USA Route 66 at Pond, Missouri, now incorporated within Wildwood. After the highway was later routed to bypass Pond, the business struggled to survive, operating as housing for government employees during World War II. Eventually the cabins were demolished, and the restaurant was used for other business operations. It was reopened as a restaurant in the 1990s.</p><br>
<h2>Background</h2><br>
<p>The opening of USA Route 66 made it possible for motorists to travel from Chicago to Santa Monica, California, on one highway. As people began exploring the United States on the newly created thoroughfare, restaurants and overnight accommodations sprang up along the way. The lodgings were alternately known as tourist courts, tourist camps, tourist cabins, and motels.</p><br>
<h2>Beginnings on USA Route 66</h2><br>
<p>Once it was known that Route 66 would go through the community of Pond, later incorporated into Wildwood, plans were drawn up to build the Big Chief Highway Hotel complex. An article that appeared on April 19, 1929, in the Washington Citizen newspaper in Washington, Missouri, credited Walter H. Petring of the Highway Hotel Corporation in St. Louis as the man in charge of planning a series of tourist camps along the route. According to that source, Petring envisioned a chain of tourists camps the length of USA Route 66 itself, "one day&#39;s drive apart" from each. In later accounts of this, William Clay Pierce of Texas-based Pierce-Pennant Oil Company is credited as the Big Chief developer and originator of the chain concept for the endeavor. Others have claimed Pierce built another Big Chief in Illinois, which the National Park Service has deemed "unlikely". Regardless of who is credited for the idea, when the National Park Service conducted research for the NRHP certification, they found no evidence that anyone ever carried out the plans of expansion.</p><br>
<p>The 62-unit tourist camp that opened in 1928 was designed in the Mission Revival architecture style, and built at an estimated cost of $150,000–$200,000. The individual units rented for $1.50 a night, and were aligned on the property in what resembled a rectangle with one of the long sides open to the highway. The two-story restaurant at Big Chief featured a bell tower, and was a full-service establishment, more formal than the small diner-style eateries usually associated with tourist camps. It served lunch and dinner, and provided an area for "bridge parties" and banquets.</p><br>
<p>A 1928 article from the Pacific Transcript newspaper in Pacific, Missouri, mentioned that in addition to what would be considered standard amenities, each unit was provided a garage for the traveler&#39;s automobile. A locked gate kept everyone but the paying guests out, and apparently kept the guests in: "There is no driving back and forth in the night." A full service gas station was on the premises, as well as recreational facilities for both children and adults that included a concrete area on the grounds designated as a dance floor.</p><br>
<h2>Post-1932 ventures</h2><br>
<p>USA Route 66 was re-routed in 1932, after which it no longer ran through Pond. With the 1933 Repeal of Prohibition in the United States, the restaurant added "The Tap" room for service of alcoholic beverages. Although business began to sag after the re-route, the Big Chief adapted by providing housing for employees at the Weldon Spring Ordnance Works, which manufactured explosives for the military during World War II, and employees of the Weldon Spring uranium processing plant.</p><br>
<p>After the restaurant&#39;s 1949 closure, the property site and existing buildings were owned by Marco and Rose Aceto, who removed the bell tower and used the restaurant for various business ventures. Their original intent of continuing the restaurant never materialized, and the cabins were eventually demolished. G. Todd DeVille purchased the remaining property in the 1990s. The restaurant re-opened in 1995 as the Big Chief Dakota Grill, and currently operates as the Big Chief Roadhouse. It is the lone survivor of the original 1928 complex.</p><br>
<h2>NRHP designation</h2><br>
<p>Big Chief Restaurant was added to the National Register of Historic Places listings in 2003.</p><br>

<p>The Henderson Lewelling House, also known as the Lewelling Quaker Museum, is a historic building located in Salem, Iowa, United States. Lewelling and his wife Elizabeth were among the first settlers in the Quaker community of Salem in 1837. They moved here from Henry County, Indiana, and Henderson moved his fruit tree nursery with him. This was Iowa&#39;s first commercial nursery. Henderson built this two-story stone house with Greek Revival details in 1843. The Lewellings were abolitionists associated with the Society of Anti-Slavery Friends, and his home is thought to have been a stop on the Underground Railroad. The family left Salem for Oregon in 1847, taking the nursery with them.</p><br>
<p>The Lewelling&#39;s continued to own the house after they left Salem, and Nelson Gibbs, the local Justice of the Peace, used it for his office. In 1848 he held a hearing in the house concerning the slaves of Ruel Daggs from Clark County, Missouri who had escaped to Salem. Because of the size of the crowd, the hearing was moved to the Anti-Slavery Quaker Meetinghouse (no longer extant) across the street. Gibbs determined he had no jurisdiction in the case. It led to the federal court case Ruel Daggs vs. Elihu Frazier et al (1850), which was heard in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Iowa in Burlington. The case, which Daggs won, was one of the last major cases using the Fugitive Slave Act of 1793, and the only one held west of the Mississippi River.</p><br>
<p>The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982. It is noteworthy for its association with both Lewellings nursery and the Daggs case. It has been converted into a museum.</p><br>
<p>Wycamp Lake is a shallow lake in Emmet County in the USA state of Michigan. 609 acre in size, it is located approximately 3 mi northeast of Cross Village, Michigan. It is located within Mackinaw State Forest and is served by local unimproved roads and by the North Country Trail.</p><br>
<p>A typical shallow lake in the North Woods, the lake is partly surrounded by wetlands. Like much of the Mackinaw State Forest, the region around the lake was cut over in the late 1800s for timber; exhausted land parcels were allowed to return to the public sector. Much of the lakes watershed is owned and managed by the Michigan Department of Natural Resources (M-DNR). The lake is technically a reservoir; a dam at the Wycamp Creek outlet controls the flowage of the lakes water to Lake Michigan.</p><br>
<p>The creek and lake shoreline have been inhabited for centuries, and the Wycamp Creek Site, a Lake Michigan shoreline campsite by the lake&#39;s creek outlet, has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Stone tools excavated at the site could have been used to hunt birds, and Wycamp Lake is a noted bird-hunting location to this day.</p><br>
<p>Ponta de Mangrande also Ponta Oeste  is the westernmost point of not only Cape Verde but all Africa , it is located nearly 5 km northwest of Monte Trigo in the Island of Santo Antão and has no accessible roads. The headlands are one of the areas in Cape Verde that has no roads within the headland, also it sits on a separate mountain named Monte Cama Madeirense  connecting to the mountain range of Topo da Coroa. The headland&#39;s length is 5–6 km north to south and 1–2 km east to west.</p><br>
<p>Its etymology of Ponta Oeste, the other name is being in the westernmost of the island and the whole archipelago.</p><br>
<p>Some 25–30 km northwest is the Nola Seamount and over 230 km northwest is the Santo Antão Ridge. Also in the point&#39;s location, it is the closest land area from Cape Verde to one of the Caribbean Islands which is Barbados, being 3,681 km from the point near Stroude Land, About 2 km northeast at another point is the closest to the North American mainland being about 4,548 km from Little Dover at a point near Canso, Nova Scotia and all North America being about 4,146 km from the Avalon Peninsula.</p><br>
<p>As the seas are rough and dangerous in the area, having only a beach in the north of the headline. Four kilometers west there is a depth of 1,000 meters which forms a part of the Cape Verde Rise; about 12 km west has a depth of 2,000 meters and 30 km west is 3,000 meters. The depth of Nola Seamount, an underwater volcano is around only 140 meters deep and the west part is between 60-70 meters deep, but 40 km northwest of the headland has the water depth of over 3,000 meters. Nola Seamount may be the tallest submerged seamount within the Cape Verde Islands. During the Ice Age, the western part of the seamount was Nola Island and was flooded before the Late Ice Age.</p><br>
<p>Also, further northwest of the point could be the furthermost of the Canary Current.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The point in the northwest marked the line made by the Treaty of Tordesillas in 1494 that divided the spheres of Iberian influences 370 leagues (1,770 km) west of the point and extended up to the north and south poles, it marked the line between discovered and then undiscovered lands, the actual location would be at around at 17.5 N and in today&#39;s meridian around 42 degrees west of Greenwich, the line would be marked around twenty meridians west. In 1498, the northern part of the line in North America would not be included as John Cabot discovered a part of North America in 1498. The line existed for a couple of decades. The remaining line that divided Spanish and Portuguese possessions ceased to exist when Brazil became independent on September 1822, before other parts of Central and South America ended Spanish rule.</p><br>
<p>On December 8, 1776, Captain James Cook went on his third voyage to Australasia and went close to 90 km (then 50 miles) northwest of the island at Ponta de Mangrande.</p><br>
<h2>Lighthouse</h2><br>
<p>It also has a lighthouse being the westernmost in the whole of Africa (together with the mainland and its islands) as well as the main landmark 190 meters inland with a small pathway linking 400 meters from the sea and connected to partly stable pathways connecting to other parts of the island</p><br>
<p>The lighthouse was completed somewhere in the late 19th century in the heyday of ship traffic going into and out of Porto Grande Bay and stopping at Mindelo, it continued until the Great Depression of 1930. Ships that headed and went to Mindelo mainly went between Europe/Africa and the Americas at the Caribbean/North America and had not too much ship traffic as other routes. Today it guides ships that are stopping or leaving Porto Grande Bay, domestic shipping and ferry and ships entering and leaving the archipelago but ship traffic is probably lower than the route east of Ponta do Tumbo. The lighthouse status today is uncertain.</p><br>
<p>The B&#39;nai Israel Synagogue and Cemetery in Thomasville, Georgia was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1997. According to its NRHP nomination, the synagogue "is the most intact example of the few surviving pre-World War II Orthodox synagogues in Georgia. These synagogues were built by Eastern European Jews arriving</p><br>
<p>between 1881 and 1920."</p><br>
<p>The Jewish cemetery in Thomasville was established in 1909. It is located on the northeast outskirts of the town, about a mile from the synagogue.</p><br>
<p>The synagogue is a one-story gable-front building built in 1913 with Romanesque Revival styling. It has a pedimented entry flanked by Tuscan columns that was probably added soon after.</p><br>
<p>The synagogue&#39;s membership peaked in 1925 when there were 35 families (over 100 individuals) as members.</p><br>
<p>The synagogue is also a contributing building in the Thomasville Commercial Historic District.</p><br>
<p>The Mormon Print Shop is a commercial building located at the corner of Main and Forest Streets in St. James, Michigan on Beaver Island. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1971.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>After the death of Joseph Smith in 1844, James Strang founded the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (Strangite), a faction of the Latter Day Saint movement (i.e. the Mormons) that he claimed to be the sole legitimate continuation of the Church. In 1847, Strang and some of his followers moved to the then largely uninhabited Beaver Island. The colony of St. James quickly grew, and by 1850, there were several thousand people in the Beaver Islands, most of them Mormon.</p><br>
<p>In 1850, Strang and his followers constructed this building as a print shop. On December 12 of that year they printed the first issue of the Northern Islander, one of the earliest papers published in northern Michigan. It was published first as a weekly, and later as a daily, and carried both general news and columns dealing with the religious ideas of Strang. The shop was also used to print books.</p><br>
<p>Strang, however, had made many enemies, and in June 1856 he was shot, dying a few weeks later. Shortly after Strang&#39;s shooting, Beaver Island was invaded by a mob of non-Mormons from the mainland portion of Michigan, who sacked many of the buildings and forcibly evicted the residents. The mob took control of the print shop, and issued an edition of the Northern Islander listing their grievances.</p><br>
<p>In later years, the print shop became a boarding house owned by a Mrs. Gibson. It was later purchased by the Beaver Island Historical Society, who use the building as a historical museum, the Old Mormon Print Shop Museum. Plans are underway to expand the building.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Mormon Print Shop is a two-story building with a gable roof measuring approximately 30 feet wide by 20 feet deep. A single-story addition measuring 19 feet wide is attached to the rear of the building. It is constructed the shop is built from squared logs covered with vertical board and batten. The foundation originally consisted of cedar posts sunk into the ground, but these deteriorated and were replaced by cement blocks.</p><br>
<p>The Feodar Protar Cabin is a historic log cabin located on Sloptown Road west of Donnel Mor&#39;s Lane in Peaine Township, Michigan, near St. James, Michigan on Beaver Island. It was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1972. As of 2017, it is operated as a museum by the Beaver Island Historical Society.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Feodar (or Feodor) Protar was born in Estonia. He was said to have been influenced by the writings of Leo Tolstoy and exiled. He settled in Dresden, and when his wife died in 1870, emigrated to the United States. He toured for a time with actress Fanny Janauschek, and in 1882 purchased and began operating a German newspaper in Rock Island, Illinois. In 1887, while on a trip in Lake Michigan, a storm forced Protar&#39;s ship into the Beaver Island harbor at St. James. He became encahnted with the island, and spent his summers there for the next five years.</p><br>
<p>In 1893, Protar moved to Beaver Island permanently. He chose for his house a log cabin constructed by an Irish settler in about 1860. He soon realized the extreme need on the island for a physician, began studying medicine, and was soon practicing as an unlicensed physician. Protar continued living in this house, and practicing medicine, until his death in 1925, never leaving the island.</p><br>
<p>Protar&#39;s neighbors erected a bronze tablet on his grave in 1928, reading, "to our Heaven sent friend in need, Feodora Protar, who never failed us. In imperishable gratitude and adoration. His people of Beaver Island." The cabin fell disrepair for a number of years, and in 1971 a new roof and porch were constructed.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Feodar Protar Cabin is a -story building measuring about 32 feet by 16 feet. The walls are made of square-hewn white pine logs with flat notches at the corners. Narrow clapboards cover some portions of the cabin. The roof is covered with wooden shingles. The interior of the cabin is paneled with vertical pine boards. Many of the interior furnishings still in the cabin belonged to Protar.</p><br>
<p>The Horton Bay General Store is a commercial building located at 05115 Boyne City Road in Horton Bay, Michigan. It was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1991. The store is mentioned in two of Ernest Hemingway&#39;s short stories, "Up in Michigan" and "The Last Good Country."</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>In 1870, Horton Bay&#39;s founder Samuel Horton established a homestead at this site. In 1876, Alonzo J. Stroud and William H. Ohle set up a sawmill near here and were soon employing up to 30 workers. With the influx of workers, Horton Bay quickly grew into a small community, and the need for a general store and other services soon became apparent. William H. Ohle withdrew from the sawmill business and concentrated on real estate and construction in the new community. Tradition has it that Ohle supervised the construction of the Horton Bay General Store, as well as many other early buildings in the community (including the next-door boardinghouse, now the Red Fox Inn. The General Store was likely built in 1877 or 1878.</p><br>
<p>The store was constructed as a typical late nineteenth-century general store. The entire first floor carried a general stock of groceries, hardware, clothing, and other products, while the second floor served as living quarters for the proprietor. In 1879, the first post office for Horton Bay was located in the store.</p><br>
<p>The store has operated more or less continuously since its construction. Alonzo Stroud owned the store from 1890 - 1894. He sold it to his clerk Conrad Schneider, who operated it for over ten years until selling it to Merton Fox in 1904. During the Great Depression, Ben and Margaret Belnap owned the store, and in 1972, Harriet Housel and her parents, George and Betty, took over ownership. Claudia and Chip Lorenger purchased the store in the early 2000s, and own it as of 2017.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Horton Bay General Store is a rectangular gable-front two-story frame Late Victorian commercial building, clad in clapboard, on a fieldstone foundation. It has a symmetrical, falsefront facade with an upper cornice containing a central triangular pediment. The storefront contains a centrally located, recessed doorway flanked by display windows. A storefront cornice with supporting bracketry is located at the point where the porch roof meets the facade.</p><br>
<p>On the interior, the first story contains much of the original store interior finish, including a board ceiling, the original floor, some of the shelving units, and one sales counter. Several carbide and kerosene lamps are still in their locations. On the second floor, the living quarters have been extensively modernized.</p><br>
<p>The Sierra de las Cacachilas is a mountain range of eastern Baja California Sur state, located on the southern Baja California Peninsula in northwestern Mexico.</p><br>
<p>It is a mountain range of the Peninsular Ranges System, which extends 1,500 km from Southern California, through the Baja California Peninsula in Baja California and Baja California Sur states.</p><br>
<h2>Geography</h2><br>
<p>The Sierra de las Cacahilas lie just east of La Paz near the Pichilingue Peninsula on the Sea of Cortez side of the southeastern Baja California Peninsula. Prominent hills include Cerro del Puerto, 1,260 m in elevation, and Cerro de las Cienaga.</p><br>
<h3>Natural history</h3><br>
<p>Much of the flora and fauna found in the Sierra de las Cacahilas are considered endemic to the region, and a binational research team identified several species in 2013 that had only been found previously in the Sierra de la Laguna, 40 mi to the south, and discovered a new species of spider, later named Califorctenus cacachilensis.</p><br>
<p>The Lucius Barbour House is a historic house at 130 Washington Street in Hartford, Connecticut. Built in 1865, it is a high-quality local example of Italianate architecture executed in brick. It is also noted for its interior, which is a well-preserved later Victorian remodeling of the original. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Lucius Barbour House stands about three blocks south of Hartfords Capitol District, on the east side of Washington Street a short way north of Park Street. Washington Street is a major north-south artery in the city, and was historically lined with some of the citys grandest mansions. Many of them have since been demolished to make way for either commercial development or apartment buildings. The Barbour House is one of the few that survive. It is a 2-1/2 story structure, built out of red brick, with a three-story tower at the center of its southern facade. Its form is basically that of a cube, which has been embellished by projecting window bays and wrought iron porches. Many windows are set in segmented-arch openings framed by bracketed sills and lintels. The third floor of the tower is mostly banked sash windows, and the roof of both the tower and main block have projecting eaves with paired brackets. The front facade has been marred by a modern addition to the right of the entrance.</p><br>
<p>The house was built in 1865 by Lucius Barbour, who made a fortune in the dry goods business and real estate speculation. The interior was redecorated about 1890, after Barbour&#39;s son (also named Lucius) took over the property. It features elaborate Victorian woodwork, plaster, and tile in each of the public rooms, and original wall treatments from the restyling survive, including wallpaper and stencilwork. A few rooms upstairs were later redecorated with more Adamesque Colonial Revival details. The house now houses professional offices.</p><br>
<p>The Boce W. Barlow Jr. House is a historic house at 31 Canterbury Street in Hartford, Connecticut. An architecturally undistinguished two-story built in 1926, it was from 1958 home to Boce W. Barlow Jr. , the first African-American to win election to the Connecticut State Senate, and a prominent figure Hartford politics. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1994.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Boce W. Barlow Jr. House is located in Hartford&#39;s northernmost Blue Hills neighborhood, on the west side of Canterbury Street north of Westbourne Parkway. It is one of a number of similar homes on the street, which was subdivided and built out in the 1920s. It is a two-story wood frame structure, with a side gable roof, clapboarded exterior, and two brick chimneys, one at the left side and one in the interior behind the roof ridge. The main facade is three bays wide, with the outer bays filled by paired sash windows. The main entrance is at the center, sheltered by a bracketed gable-roofed hood. A smaller pair of sash windows are set above the entrance.</p><br>
<p>The house was built in 1926, and was purchased in 1958 by Boce Barlow Jr. Born in Georgia, Barlow came to Hartford with his parents when he was one year old, attended Hartford High School, and graduated from Howard University in 1939 as class president. After serving in World War II in a segregated unit, he graduated from Harvard Law School, one of only four African-Americans in his class. Like his father before him, he was active in Democratic Party politics, and won election to the state senate in 1966, serving two terms. When he moved into this house in 1958 with his wife and children, they were the first African-Americans on the block, and were subjected to harassment and prejudicial behavior. Barlow continued to distinguish himself, serving in a variety of state posts that advanced the cause of equal rights. The city named a street in his honor in 1987.</p><br>
<p>Ponta Nhô Martinho is the southernmost point of Cape Verde, it is located nearly 4 km south of Cachaço and south of Nova Sintra in the Island of Brava and has no nearby roads and trails, it is accessible only by boat and the nearest harbor is in Tantum on the west of the island. As to many parts of the coastal portion of Brava, it is surrounded by steep slopes and mountains. Morras das Pedras  is its nearest mountain. The headland&#39;s size is very small.</p><br>
<p>Some 20 km southwest is the Cadamosto Seamount. South of the headland is the Cape Verde Rise, 2.4 km south has waters 1,000 meters deep, 2,000 meters deep 4 km south and 3,000 meters deep 7 km south, somewhat 40 km south is the Cape Verde Basin where waters are deep as over around 5,000 meters to the south.</p><br>
<h2>Geography</h2><br>
<p>It is not the location for being the closest part of Cape Verde to the New World Mainland, it is at another headland 2.7 km west-northwest where it is the closest point in Cape Verde to Brazil and the New World mainland which is 2,504 km SSW at Touros, Rio Grande do Norte and is about 1,604 km nearly south to the tiny islets of the Saint Peter and Saint Paul Archipelago.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Along with the island, the point was discovered in June 24, 1462 by Diogo Afonso. Later, the point was called Salt Point (Portuguese: Ponta do Sal) as salt was abundant in one area or its air being saltlike, its name was mentioned in the 1747 French/Dutch map by Jacques Nicolas Bellin. Later, it became known as the current name of Nhô Martinho.</p><br>
<p>During the Ice Age, the point was around a kilometers south of its current location.</p><br>
<p>Between the late 19th century in the heyday of ship traffic going into and out of Porto Grande Bay and stopping at Mindelo, it continued until the Great Depression of 1930. Ships that went between Europe and South America via Mindelo went near the lighthouse but not a lot that used Europe-Africa-Australasia route that stopped via Mindelo. Today, it is used for shipping boats, some of them stopping at the ports of Mindelo, Praia and Sal, as some the sea lanes linking Europe and South America and North America and Africa crosses within the island, much of the cargo ships bypasses the archipelago&#39;s ports and some pass distant from the lighthouse.</p><br>
<h2>Lighthouse</h2><br>
<p>It also has a lighthouse being the southernmost notable structure in Cape Verde, it sits at 29 m above sea level.</p><br>
<p>The Lurgrotte karst cave is the largest cave in the Eastern Alps of Styria, Austria. It is located about 16 km north of Graz and crosses the Tannenben karst region. The cave has two accessible entrances, one at the village of Semriach and the other at the village of Peggau. At the Semriach entrance, the Lur River sinks into the cave. At the Peggau entrance, the Schmelz River emerges from within the cave, flowing to the west and eventually joining the Mur River.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Archaeologists have found material in and around the cave that indicates habitation since the Paleolithic era. One specimen, a reindeer bone with tool markings, has been radiocarbon dated to approximately 52,000 years ago.</p><br>
<p>The cave was first scientifically explored by the Italian cave explorer Max Brunello on April 1, 1894. While the higher portions of the cave were known to locals, Brunello was the first to discover the lower portion of the cave. The next attempt to explore further provoked disaster.</p><br>
<p>On April 29, 1894, seven cavers entered the Lurgrotte, despite heavy rainfall. A flash flood occurred while they were inside, and they wound up trapped for ten days. Emperor Franz Joseph I approved a rescue effort, employing large numbers of workers, miners, and divers who bailed out the water and successfully rescued the trapped cavers.</p><br>
<p>In February 1905, members of the Austrian Tourist Club surveyed 1,002 m of passages within the Lurgrotte.</p><br>
<p>In the 1920s, the cave explorer Hermann Mayer worked with his father to develop the Peggauer section of the Lurgrotte for visitors. In addition, they tried to find a link between the Peggauer entry and Semriach entry. On November 26, 1924, the route was cleared by explosives, but it was not until 1935 that the first crossing was possible.</p><br>
<p>On May 23, 1926, the pioneering female cave explorer Leopoldine Fuhrich fell approximately 20 m to her death while exploring Lurgrotte. There is a memorial plaque for her still inside the cave.</p><br>
<p>On February 24, 1927, the city of Frohnleiten hosted an auction for the grotto, including a restaurant, two mansions, and 35,359 m&sup2; of ground, in the interests of preserving the Lurgrotte as a domestic enterprise. On July 8, 1927, the District Court of Frohnleiten held another auction of the Lurgrotte, which was eventually won by a wine-trader named Pezzi. Pezzi planned to turn the Lurgrotte into a show cave and construct railway through the cave.</p><br>
<p>The first complete crossing of about 5 km long cave succeeded in 1935. In the following years the Lurgrotte was developed into a show cave, with infrastructure such as bridges, walkways, and lights added for visitors. From 1962 it was possible for visitors to wander through the entire cave, until 1975, when parts of the infrastructure were washed away in a powerful storm. Because the flooding recurs on a yearly basis, the full infrastructure has never been repaired.</p><br>
<h2>Hydrology</h2><br>
<p>The water system in the Lurgrotte is complex, forming a drainage system for the entire Tanneben karst area. Because of its complexity, and the difficulty in exploring the cave&#39;s numerous underground channels, it is poorly understood. It is known that the Lur River enters at the Semriach entry, and the Schmelz River exits from the Peggau side. When rainfall is heavy, excess water from the Lur system can overflow into the Schmelz system, so it is confirmed that there is a high-water connection between the two, although its location and extent are still unknown.</p><br>
<p>Attempts to trace the outflow using dye have shown that the water from the Lur emerges in springs south of the cave, while the flow of the Schmelz appears to originate from sources north of the Lurgrotte.</p><br>
<h2>Tourism</h2><br>
<p>Since the flooding of 1975, it is no longer possible to cross through the caves from one side to another. Visitors can instead tour through a shortened area at each end of the cave. From Peggau, regular guided tours enter 1 km into the cave, although in the winter longer tours of up to 4 km are available by appointment.</p><br>
<p>From Semriach, tourists have access to approximately 2 km of the cave, including its largest gallery, called the Big Dome or the Bear Grotto due to the cave bear bones that have been found within. At 120 m long, 80 m wide, and a 40 m tall, it is one of Central Europe&#39;s largest underground rooms.</p><br>
<p>Hazle Creek is a tributary source stream of the Lehigh and Delaware Rivers, via Black Creek, Carbon County, which originates in southern Luzerne County on the east side of the saddle of an important mountain pass hosting a transportation infrastructure corridor. The creek&#39;s source area is located within the east-side neighborhoods of Hazleton, Pennsylvania. The entire city is low lying relative to the surrounding mountainous Ridge-and-Valley Appalachians and historically was known as the "Great Swamp" and other names with either wilderness or swamp being appended—the whole area extending over 20 mi to the Lehigh Gap was heavily forested with low-lying areas generally being swampy pinewood forests. Hazle Creek&#39;s source springs originate in the terrain along the upper edge of the Lehigh River drainage basin, TBDL ft above its mouth, and TBDL above mean sea level.</p><br>
<p>Initially part of the terrain traversed by the Amerindian trail known to white settlers as the "Warriors&#39; Path", the creek&#39;s water gap hosted an early crude wagon road, the Lausanne-Nescopeck Road, which connected the Moravians in Bethlehem and the lower Luzerne County settlements of "Saint Anthony&#39;s Wilderness", the earliest being those along the Nescopeck Creek in a village known as St. Johns in the late 1700s. The city of Hazleton sits astride the pass connecting the watershed of the Lehigh to the Susquehanna-drained tributaries along the west side of the borough. The stream runs generally south-southeast for about 6 mi, where it joins Beaver Creek to form Black Creek, the major regional tributary stream on the north side of the Broad Mountain barrier ridge. The banks of all three water courses host both automotive and rail roadbeds.</p><br>

<p>Rocca Barbena is a 1142 metres high mountain in the Ligurian Prealps  in Italy.</p><br>
<h2>Geography</h2><br>
<p>The mountain is located on the main chain of the Alps and dominates from North Castelvecchio di Rocca Barbena. Its northern cliffs face on Bardineto and Bormida valley. The summit stands on the water divide between Ligurian Sea and River Po basins. Going NW Colle Scravaion (814 m) divides the Rocca Barbena from the neighbouring Monte Lingo (1103 m) while looking East the water divide goes on with colletto Bianco (935 m), Monte Sebanco (983 m) and Giogo di Toirano. Unlikely other rounded and woody mountains in the area Rocca Barbena is rocky and locally precipitous, above all on its North face.</p><br>
<p>Administratively the Rocca Barbena belongs to the municipality of Castelvecchio di Rocca Barbena. On its summit, which offers a very good point of view on Ligurian Alps and Italian Riviera, stands a cross with a metallic box sheltering a summit register.</p><br>
<h2>Access to the summit</h2><br>
<p>Rocca Barbena can be reached from Colle Scravaion following a waymarked foothpath. The route does not require alpinistic skills even if there are some very steep stretches and in the Italian scale of hiking difficulty the route is rated E (Escursionisti, namely suitable for normal hikers). It is also possible accessing the summit via East ridge from the Colletto Bianco.</p><br>
<p>Colletto Bianco and Colle Scravaion are linked by the Alta Via dei Monti Liguri, a trekking route which passes at the base of the northern cliffs of the Rocca Barbena.</p><br>
<h2>Nature conservation</h2><br>
<p>The mountain and its surrounding area are part of an area protetta provinciale (protected provincial area) established by the Provincia di Savona mainly in order to preserve environmental produced by karstic erosion as rock pinnacles, ponors and caves. The area also belongs to the SIC (Site of Community Importance) called Monte Ravinet-Rocca Barbena - code IT 1324011.</p><br>
<p>Belderrig is a small village on the North Mayo coast, and lies within the Céide Fields complex, a prehistoric landscape of field systems and related domestic and ritual structures dating to the Neolithic and Bronze Age. The excavations at Belderrig were initiated by Graeme Warren, School of Archaeology, University College Dublin, Ireland, after visiting the site in 2003 with its discoverer, the archaeologist Seamas Caulfield.</p><br>
<p>The excavations took place directly on the low cliff on the east side of Belderrig Harbour by a large erosion scar, and continued uphill. The excavations uncovered a series of Mesolithic platforms and stony layers, with Mesolithic activity dating from around 4500 cal. BC, with a range of dates into the Neolithic, with a final date of around 2500 cal. BC. As well as the Mesolithic stony platforms and layers, the excavations uncovered a series of pits, and prehistoric field walls related to the Céide Fields complex. The stone tool assemblage is dominated by vein quartz artefacts, with a smaller amount of flint and siltstone.</p><br>
