<p>Madum Lake  is the largest lake in the Himmerland peninsula of Jutland, Denmark. The lake covers an area of 2.04 km&sup2, and has a depth of 7.5 m at its deepest point. It is both an important bird sanctuary and a popular bathing spot.</p><br>
<h2>Formation and surroundings</h2><br>
<p>Madum Lake most likely developed out of a glacial kettle hole – a hollow formed by the melting of glacial ice left by the Quaternary ice age. The lake formerly lay in heathland, but it is now located in Rebild Municipality, and is surrounded by the Rold Skov forest. To the north of the lake is a narrow forested belt, with birch as the dominant tree species. In the forest, common passerine birds dominate, along with buzzards, goshawks, sparrowhawks, long-eared owls, tawny owls, black woodpeckers, green woodpeckers and ravens. In winter months, whooper swans and merganser ducks can be seen around the lake.</p><br>
<p>Madum Lake and the surrounding forest are partly owned by three private interests – Lindenborg Gods, Nørlund and Willestrup Estate – with 25% of the forest falling under state ownership. There is public access, and it is possible to walk around the lake on a marked route. Public fishing and boating on the lake is prohibited. At the lake&#39;s eastern shore is a visitor parking space, from which extends a marked route to and around the Long Marsh – a large, well-preserved bog in the forest to the east.</p><br>
<h2>Ecology and conservation</h2><br>
<p>Madum Lake is part of a Natura 2000 protected area (no. 18) that also includes the forest of Rold Skov and the river valley of Lindenborg Ådal. The protected area covers a total of 8,748 hectare, and is also protected under the EU Habitats Directive as a bird sanctuary.</p><br>
<h3>Birds</h3><br>
<p>Madum Lake is a bird sanctuary of international importance, and is designated as area F3 under the EU Habitats Directive. It serves as a stopover for goldeneye and tufted ducks, and to a lesser extent, mallards. In the spring and autumn, ospreys forage on the lake&#39;s population of pike and perch. Madum Lake furthermore serves as an important breeding site for birds, hosting the nests of great crested grebes, mute swans and coots.</p><br>
<h3>Threats and concerns</h3><br>
<p>Madum Lake has been declared a "Lobelia-lake", after the plant Lobelia dortmanna, indicating very high water quality. However, there is evidence that, in recent years, the ecosystem of the lake has been stressed by outside pollution, including airborne nitrogen from agricultural activities and the more direct influence of hundreds of bathers in summer. A clear sign of this stress is seen in late summer in the form of algal blooms, and the lakes reed-covered headlands have widened in recent years. The lakes waters reportedly remain very clear, but are increasingly acidic and nutrient-poor.</p><br>
<p>Eksingedalen is a valley that makes up the northeastern part of Vaksdal municipality in Hordaland County, Norway.</p><br>
<p>The Eksingedalen valley stretches over 50 km from the Vikafjell mountains all the way to the Inner Osterfjorden. The Ekso River (also known as the Storelvi River) runs through the entire valley, from alpine lakes all the way down to the Eidsfjorden, a small branch off the Inner Osterfjorden. The Stølsheimen Mountains surround the Eksingedalen valley. At 1,433 m above sea level, Kvitanosi is the highest mountain peak around the Eksingedalen valley. The Modalen valley lies over the mountains to the north and the Modalen Tunnel connects the two valleys.</p><br>
<p>Mainly a farming area, about 200-300 people live in Eksingedalen. It is the site of a number of traditional farms including the historic Gullbrå, Ekse, and Trefall farms. Inga Litamor (Choral EG 168. 1901) a composition by Edvard Grieg was based on a traditional folk melody from Eksingedalen.</p><br>
<p>The village of Eidslandet is situated in the lower parts of Eksingedalen at the head of Eidsfjorden, an arm of the inner Osterfjorden. The Myster kraftverk hydroelectric power plant is headquartered in Eidslandet. Myster kraftverk is owned and operated by Bergenshalvøens Kommunale Kraftselskap.</p><br>
<p>The village of Flatkvål is located about 10 km northeast of Eidslandet and the village of Nesheim lies another 15 km northeast of Flatkvål. County Road 344 runs through most of the valley, and County Road 569 running from the Modalen Tunnel to the southern end of the valley. Eksingedal Church and Nesheim Church are both located in the valley.</p><br>
<p>McArthur Lake is located in Northern Ontario, about 40 km south of the city of Timmins. It is located about 10 km south southeast of Papakomeka Lake. The lake consists of 13 islands, three main peninsulas and three main bays. The lake lies in Timiskaming District. Over 20 camps and cottages are built on the west side of McArthur Lake. Popular sports here include fishing for pickerel  and Northern pike as well as kayaking or boating. Blueberry Island is the home to the only blueberries in the lake&#39;s region. The climate is very harsh; very few deciduous trees are found here. Most of the waterfront is rocky. The lake closes usually around October and re-opens when the snow and ice melt. The lake is approximately 1.5 km², and is said to reach a depth of roughly 35 feet, near Blueberry and Maziic islands. The average water temperature ranges from 25°C in July, to a chilling 14°C by October. Cedar and poplar trees are common here, as well as balsam fir and various types of pines. Various kinds of wildlife include: rabbits, bluejays and chickadees.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>McArthur Lake was discovered in the early 20th century and was named after its discoverer. McArthur would often stop by at a convenience store in Timmins. He couldnt pay for the items that he bought and promised to pay the shopkeeper back later. When McArthur could pay the man back, he offered him six claims on his newly discovered lake. The shopkeepers descendants still own these claims today.</p><br>
<p>Gold was found on the lake in what is believed to be one of six locations. There is also one copper and nickel vein to the south of the lake. A quartz vein, once believed to contain gold has been recently confirmed as containing none of the precious metal.</p><br>
<p>McArthur Lake became popular in the Timmins area in the 1950s and 1960s. Because there was no garbage pickup from the moderately isolated lake, the cottagers needed a place to put their trash so bears would not invade their camps. An ideal island was found nearly a kilometer away from the main lodge and was large enough to sustain an immense amount of garbage. It was to become known as Blueberry Island. The island became so full that one of the only options to prevent another island from being trashed was to burn the garbage island. After the island was burned, a trash system was eventually devised into Timmins. Years after the burning, blueberries began to form on the island, hence its name. Trash can still be found on the south side of the island; old pop cans and beer bottles are the most common garbage still on the island.</p><br>
<h2>Districts</h2><br>
<p>There are four districts in which McArthur Lake is split into: Northern, Eagle, Blueberry and Lodge. They make up the north, south, east and west parts of the lake, respectively. Each district contains at least three islands and a bay. Two of the four peninsulas are split between two districts leaving bays entirely in a given district.</p><br>
<h2>Islands</h2><br>
<p>There are thirteen islands in McArthur Lake. Most are accessible all year round, but a few can only be accessed during the spring (high water) or fall (very low water).</p><br>
<h3>McArthur Island</h3><br>
<p>This island is the largest on the lake being located just west of the geographical centre of the lake. The island is located in the westernmost Lodge District. It is about nine times larger than Sharprock Island, the second largest island. The island is mostly accessible by the south and on some west areas. The northwest side of the island has cliffs with the highest being about 20 feet high. Its shoreline is 1.15 km and its area is approximately 59,650 m².</p><br>
<h3>Sharprock Island</h3><br>
<p>The second largest island on McArthur Lake is located about 200 meters north northeast of McArthur Island. It is located in Northern District. The island is only accessible from the south side, near the sharp rocks (hence its name). All other points on the island have cliffs on the shore. The west side contains sparsely populated pine trees compared to the east side, which contains many dense and short tree types. Sharprock Island&#39;s shoreline is 0.31 km and has an area of about 6,590 m².</p><br>
<h3>Blueberry Island</h3><br>
<p>Blueberry Island is the third largest and most famous on the lake because of the garbage incident in the 1960s. The island is located in the easternmost Blueberry District. The deepest point in the lake is thought to be found near this island because of steep drop-offs and cliffs that the area possesses. The island is easily spotted by a large pine tree on the western side of the island which towers about 20&#39; over other trees. Access is easiest on the north side, but the island can be accessed by the west side as well. The shoreline of Blueberry Island is about 0.24 km and has an area of about 3,340 m².</p><br>
<h3>Hidden Island</h3><br>
<p>This island gets its name from the fact that it is hidden on the east side of Leech Bay on the north side of the lake. The fourth largest island is one of the few islands not made of bedrock. It is located in Northern District. The island is about 40&#39; from shore and is accessible from any point, preferably not from a powerboat. Hidden Island has a shoreline of 0.23 km and has an area of approximately 2,780 m².</p><br>
<h3>Delta Island</h3><br>
<p>The fifth largest island in the lake lies in Lodge district about 200 meters southeast of McArthur Island. It gets its name from the idea that the nearby creek could have formed a delta and this island from it, lying in Lodge District. The island can be accessed from any point, although there are extremely shallow waters to the south (2 feet). The island&#39;s terrain is the most exaggerated of all of the islands. Delta Island has a shoreline of about 0.19 km and an area of 1,940 m².</p><br>
<h3>Shadfly Island</h3><br>
<p>This island, being sixth largest is located south of Grand Peninsula in McArthur Lakes The Archipelago. It can be found approximately 220 m north northeast of Blueberry Island, lying in Blueberry District. This island, as well as the other islands of The Archipelago, are named after small creatures that inhabit the lake. The island can be accessed from practically any point. There is an excellent fishing spot about 200 southeast of the island. Shadfly Island has a shoreline of about 0.20 km and has an area of 1,530 m².</p><br>
<h3>Olyjian Isle</h3><br>
<p>Olyjian Isle is the seventh largest island on the lake, but is only less than half the size of Shadfly Island. It is located about ten meters north of McArthur Island and both islands lie in Lodge District. Olyjian Isle is covered with only two tall trees but has many bushes and shrubs on the south side. The island is rocky and accessibility is easiest from the south. The island was named after a fictional four funneled ship from the late 19th century. Olyjian Isle has a shoreline of 117 m and has an area of 680 m².</p><br>
<h3>Diorite Island</h3><br>
<p>This island is located about 100 m northwest of Outflow Bay, in Lodge District. The island is also known colloquially as Half-Dead Island, as the vegetation on the island is dying. The island gets its name from the diorite rock that runs through to this island. It is the only island made with this rock. Accessibility is limited. The island&#39;s has a shoreline of 106 m and an area of 655 m².</p><br>
<h3>Midway Island</h3><br>
<p>The ninth largest island, located in the southernmost bay, Theriault Bay, was once thought to lie halfway between the north and south sides of the bay. The island lies in Eagle District. South of the island, the water is fairly shallow. The island in itself is low lying, making accessibility easy from any point. Midway Island has a shoreline of about 103 m and has an area of about 593m².</p><br>
<h3>Crayfish Island</h3><br>
<p>This island is the tenth largest island on the lake and the second largest in The Archipelago. It is located in Blueberry District, about 50 meters southeast of Shadfly Island. The island is rocky and accessibility is easiest to the south in a motorboat as the north side of the island contains shallow waters. The shoreline of Crayfish Island is about 91 m and the island has an area of about 430 m².</p><br>
<h3>Maziic Island</h3><br>
<p>Maziic Island is the eleventh largest on the lake. It is a bedrock island and is a very tall island for its small size. The island&#39;s northern rockier side is sometimes home to a seagull nest. Seagulls once nested on a rock about 30 m north of the island (aptly named Seagull Rock) but changed their nesting area to higher ground to avoid waves. The south part of the island is densely packed with trees, a significant contrast to the north. The island is very hard to access in low water because of its high rocks. Maziic Island was named after a fictional tanker because of its long boatlike appearance. The island has a shoreline of 88 m and an area af about 428 m².</p><br>
<h3>Cat Island</h3><br>
<p>The twelfth largest island on McArthur Lake is found in the north side of East Bay. It is the largest island in the bay. Cat Island has a few small coniferous trees and several bushes. The island lies in an area heavily marked with cattails and shallow water so accessibility is difficult. The shoreline of Cat island is about 81 m and has an area of about 426 m²</p><br>
<h3>Outset Island</h3><br>
<p>The island is the thirteenth largest on McArthur Lake and is the smallest main island, at 411 m². Outset Island was previously known as Taylors Island. It rises about a half a metre above the waterline on the outskirts of Triple Bay. The island has a rock reef to its south that extends about three times its length into the lake. The islands 77 m shoreline consists of rocks mostly the size of cantaloupes, and it is not generally accessibly by motorboat because of the extensive shoal.</p><br>
<h3>Anchor, Blackfly, Forest and Shoal Islands</h3><br>
<p>These four islands lie to the east of McArthur Island, in The Archipelago, in Theriault Bay and outside of Interior Bay. They are all roughly the size of an outdoor backyard swimming pool. Anchor and Blackfly Islands consist of a few trees and slippery rocks on the shore. Forest Island is home to a myriad of densely packed trees and an eroded shore making accessibility impossible. Shoal Island appears for the summer-autumn part of the year, as the water is low. For the rest of the year, the high water levels cover the 20 cm high island composed only of large stones.</p><br>
<h2>Water Levels</h2><br>
<p>The water level here fluctuates often (depending on rainfall and the quantity of snow melting), giving an average annual fluctuation of 1 to 1 1/2 feet (beginning from early spring April–May to mid summer July–August). Measurement taken in early spring calculate the water level immediately after snowmelt, typically giving the highest annual water level. This same measurement applies to mid-summer, when the climate is hot and dry, thus depriving the lake of water. Flat shorelines tend to become more exposed when water levels are low, than steep shorelines do. For example: the lake bottom at the McArthur Lake boat launch is relatively shallow and has little slope, therefore when the water level is 1 foot lower in mid-summer, an extra 3 feet of sand is extended outward toward the middle of the lake, which in turn, creates more difficulty when launching one&#39;s boat.</p><br>

<p>The Nu Wray Inn is an historic hotel located at Burnsville, Yancey County, North Carolina. It was built in 1833 at the time Yancey County was formed and a year before Burnsville was established. It was originally built of logs and had eight bedrooms and a dining room and kitchen. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.</p><br>
<p>Thomas Wolfe spent the night there in 1929 when he was a witness at a murder trial in Burnsville. Elvis Presley and William Sidney Porter (O. Henry) were also guests.</p><br>
<p>It was owned by the same family for a century until the death of Wray family patriarch Rush Wray.</p><br>
<p>Writing about the Inn in 1941 the journalist Jonathan W. Daniels said:</p><br>
<p>Everything is on the table in the Nu Wray Hotel at Burnsville. Nobody waits to give an order. They bring it in, three or four kinds of meat, all the vegetables of the whole mountain countryside. There are dishes of homemade jellies and preserves. The country ham is excellent. The stout tables do not groan but the stuffed guest rising sometimes does. It is country plenty, country cooked and country served, but in proof that the persisting homesickness for country eating is not entirely based on legend.</p><br>
<p>The Franklin W. Farrer House in southeast Portland in the USA state of Oregon is a two-story dwelling listed on the National Register of Historic Places. An American Craftsman structure built in 1914, it was added to the register in 1989.</p><br>
<p>The interior of the house, originally a single-family dwelling, has been converted to two apartments, one on each floor. The house is locally unusual in its use of cast stone as a homebuilding material. Other notable features include elements of Prairie School architecture such as a low-pitched gable roof, an offset main entrance, exaggerated eave overhangs, and a strong emphasis on horizontal lines.</p><br>
<p>Farrer was the original owner. Born in 1867 in Minnesota, he moved in infancy to Damascus, Oregon, with his parents. In 1902, he began work for the United States Post Office Department in Portland, for which he delivered mail for 30 years. He occupied the house until his death in 1961.</p><br>
<p>The William D. Fenton House in southeast Portland in the USA state of Oregon is a 2.5-story, single-family dwelling listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Built in the Queen Anne style in 1892, it was added to the register in 1979.</p><br>
<p>Notable features of the asymmetrical house include many porches and projections, intricate decorative elements, variegated siding, a wrap-around veranda, a flare-top chimney, and a stained-glass side door. Much of the original interior woodwork, including the wainscoting and trim, is intact. The parlor and the master bedroom have elaborate fireplaces.</p><br>
<p>Fenton (1853&ndash;1925), for whom the house was built, was a prominent lawyer and the general counsel for the Southern Pacific Railroad in Oregon. In 1865, at age 12, he moved by wagon train from Missouri to Portland with his family. After his admission to the Oregon bar in 1875, he was elected to the state legislature as a Democrat. He moved to Portland in 1885, where he worked for the railroad and other corporations. Fenton, one of the founders of the Oregon Historical Society, helped set up the Lewis and Clark Centennial Exposition in Portland in 1905. Fenton Hall, which housed the University of Oregon School of Law from 1937 through 1970, was renamed for him in 1938.</p><br>
<p>The Greenfield Union School is a school located at 420 West 7 Mile Road in Detroit, Michigan. A part of Detroit Public Schools , the school building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2011.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Greenfield Union School was built by Greenfield Township for its District #1. The school was designed by Van Leyen & Schilling, and construction began in 1914. The school was completed in 1916 at a cost of $40,000, and the school opened its doors to elementary through high school students. That same year, Greenfield Township was annexed by the city of Detroit. As more residents moved to the area, the school became too crowded. High school students were transferred to other buildings, and in 1931, an addition containing several classrooms, an auditorium, and a gymnasium was constructed. This addition was also designed by Van Leyen & Schilling. In 1944, middle school students were also transferred.</p><br>
<p>As of 2011, the school is used by the Detroit Public Schools for elementary and middle school students. The school serves Chaldean Town.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The core block of the Greenfield Union School, constructed in 1914-1916, is a tall, rectangular, side-gabled, Georgian Revival red brick structure on a high basement. The front of the building has a full-height tetrastyle entry portico, styled in the Corinthian order and topped with a triangular pediment. A denticulated cornice wraps around the entire building. The entry doors beneath the portico are reached by a flight of several steps. The windows in this building consist of three large, separate openings on each floor in the center bay, and a grouping of four multi-light windows on each floor on the flanking bays.</p><br>
<p>Two Georgian Revival wings, built in 1931, flank the main block of the school, giving it an overall H-shaped plan. These wings are identical, brick, flat-roofed structures. The side elevations of each wing features two-story, round-arched windows. A single-story 1971 addition is connected to the rear of the building.</p><br>
<p>The interior of the school features an entry vestibule beyond the main doors, leading to a corridor housing administrative offices. Stairs on either side of the corridor lead upwards to classrooms, and to the two-story gymnasium wing (to the west) and the two-story auditorium (to the east). The</p><br>
<p>gymnasium has tall Palladian windows with wood trim and exposed masonry walls. The auditorium contains a stage with decorative plaster trim, with a relief framing the windows wrapping to the rear of the auditorium. The original kindergarten room is now the library, and contains a protruding bay window with wood seats below, as well as a fireplace with a decorative Pewabic tile surround and a drinking fountain niche with Pewabic tile on all three sides.</p><br>
<p>Jankent  is a deserted town east of the Aral Sea in modern Kazakhstan. It is known from Arab writings of the 10th century AD as the capital of the steppe empire of the Oghuz Turks. Archaeological research has provided information about the appearance of the town and confirmed the date, but also points to earlier origins.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>Jankent is located on the left bank of the lower Syr Darya, about 25 km southwest from the town of Kazaly (formerly Kazalinsk), in the Kazaly district of Kyzylorda province in Kazakhstan. Today, it is a scheduled monument marked by the ruins of walls which are up to 7 m high in places and enclose an area of 16 hectare in the dried-out river delta of the Syr-Darya. Visible elements of the lay-out include: a broadly rectangular wall circuit orientated east-west, given a T-shaped appearance by an eastern ‘cross-bar’; a regular lay-out in the western half of the interior; gates in the eastern and western walls; a separately enclosed ‘citadel’ in the north-western corner; a semicircular annexe attached to the northern wall; and a low mound outside the east gate suggesting an external structure.</p><br>
<h2>Historical evidence</h2><br>
<p>Arab geographers of the 10th century (Al-Masudi, Al-Idrisi) mention a town of the Oghuz called Jengi-Kent, two sources (Ibn Rustah and Ibn Hawqal), even call it the seat of the Oghuz Yabgu (ruler of second rank). As early as the 1920s, the orientalist V.V. Bartold identified Jankent as the site of the historical Jengi-Kent. The town is also identified as the home town of the Kazakh cultural hero, Korkyt Ata, the reputed inventor of the traditional two-stringed violin (kobyz).</p><br>
<h2>Archaeological evidence</h2><br>
<p>Jankent was first mentioned by Russian army topographers in the early 19th century, and visited in 1867 by the orientalist P. Lerkh. In 1946, a team of the Chorasmian Expedition surveyed the site and photographed it from the air. On the basis of the lay-out of the site and the finds collected during this visit, the director of the expedition, S.P. Tolstov, dated Jankent to the 1st – 11th centuries AD. Two other members of the expedition, N.I. Igonin and B.V. Andrianov, drew up an improved plan of Jankent in 1963.</p><br>
<p>Systematic excavations have been carried out at Jankent since 2005 by various teams, mainly the Institute of Ethnology and Anthropology, Russian Academy of Sciences (IEA RAN, Moscow) with Korkyt Ata State University of Kyzylorda (Kazakhstan) and the University of Tübingen (Germany); and the Margulan Institute of Archaeology, Kazakh Ministry of Education and Science (MON), later its commercial branch ‘Archaeological Expertise’ (Almaty, Kazakhstan), with Pavlodar State University (Kazakhstan).</p><br>
<h3>Lower town</h3><br>
<p>In the centre of the town, essential discoveries in Trench P1 included a built-up area (living quarters) with a lay-out in the Central Asian style along a street, and a possible metal workshop, all dated to the 9th/10th centuries on the basis of coin finds. Later excavations in this area have been carried out to a greater depth, revealing several building phases which suggest an earlier date.</p><br>
<h3>Citadel</h3><br>
<p>At the junction of the citadel wall and northern town wall (Trench P2), occupation layers with complex stratification were found by the Russian-Kazakh-German team down to a depth of more than 8 m from the current top of the citadel wall. Radiocarbon dates from this trench produced a range of (cal.) AD 786/923 to 961/1095. The extension of the trench at the top of the citadel since 2012, has uncovered circular towers on the wall.</p><br>
<p>Fieldwork in the interior of the citadel (Trench P3) by the Almaty and Pavlodar teams has reportedly uncovered only two layers of 9th/10th century date, the lower one of which produced building remains and a street. Lack of detailed publication precludes an independent verification of these claims.</p><br>
<h3>Town wall</h3><br>
<p>A trench in the kink of the southern town wall (Trench P5) proved that the T-shaped lay-out of the wall circuit was part of the original design, similar to earlier enclosures further south in the neighbouring civilization of Khorezm. Settlement layers with 7th/8th century pottery were found here under the base of the town wall, confirmed by radiocarbon dates for this trench ranging from (cal.) AD 674/799 to 906/1057. An earlier trench (P4) in the corresponding kink in the northern wall is briefly mentioned, but not documented, in a summary report by the Almaty and Pavlodar teams.</p><br>
<h3>Geophysical prospection</h3><br>
<p>Since 2011, a team from Moscow State University has applied several non-destructive survey techniques to large parts of the site. The results show that the citadel interior was probably located on a natural elevation. There was a regular lay-out of buildings close to the west gate, and a large building complex (‘mansion’) on the inside of the northern wall. A substantial structure, perhaps a caravanserai, stood outside the east gate. The annexe attached to the northern town wall proved to be completely empty.</p><br>
<h2>Current state of knowledge</h2><br>
<p>On the basis of their findings since 2011, the Russian-Kazakh-German team suggest that the earliest settlement at this site was founded in the 7th/8th century by a displaced population of the Dzhetyasar culture further upriver. The enclosed town of Jankent was then built in the 9th or 10th century. Its population may have been mixed as the material culture found at the site derives from three different cultural components: Oghuz nomads, sedentary Dzhetyasar culture, and Khorezmian civilization. In the 10th and 11th centuries, the town was the capital of the Oguz Yabgu State, and most likely it also functioned as a trading and craft centre for the largely nomadic population of the state, being located on a caravan route from Central Kazakhstan to Khorezm and the Volga region.</p><br>
<p>The town was abandoned some time between the 12th and 14th century AD for unknown reasons, perhaps because of a shift of the river channels in the Syr-Darya delta, or because of political developments. Other Turkic peoples, the Kipchaks and Kimeks of the Kimek Kaganate, destroyed the Oghuz state in the 12th century. Around that time, Selçuk Bey and his Kınık tribe headed to Persia to found their own Muslim state which would eventually become the Great Seljuq Empire.</p><br>
<p>The Nettie Krouse Fourplex in southeast Portland in the USA state of Oregon is a 2.5-story multiple dwelling listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Built in the American Craftsman style in 1910, it was added to the register in 1989.</p><br>
<p>The four units of the building are entered through separate exterior doors. Each floor has two apartments that are mirror images of one another. The fourplex is a good example of the many small-scale multi-family dwellings built in this part of Portland between 1905 and 1912. Notable features of the building include its rectangular form, broad overhanging eaves, wide porch, and multi-lit windows.</p><br>
<p>Krouse, the original owner, at first lived in a house across the street but eventually moved into the apartment building. She resided there until her death in 1954.</p><br>
<p>Vythos  is a village in Kozani regional unit, West Macedonia, Greece. Since the 2011 local government reform it is part of the municipality Voio, of which it is a member of the municipality unit of Pentalofos. Βυθὀς means seabed, which is a paradoxical name for a village typified by its mountainous terrain and high altitude.</p><br>
<p>People from Vithos are called Vithiotes or Dolianates.</p><br>
<h2>Topography</h2><br>
<p>Vithos is built at an altitude of 1035 metres, in one of the most steep and isolated areas of Voio, literally into the arms of the mountain. The village is nestled in a steep ravine and surrounded by the dense germination of the Siupotista chestnut forest. The huge falls of Skotomeno Nero is situated in the forest besides Mavri Rahi or Mavriaha, an astonishing mountain chain which bonds Vithos to the peak of Prophet Ilias, through old macadam roads. This magical mountain world is dominated by towering beech, oak, chestnut and pine trees. Behind Mavriaha, following the big crest of the mountain, at an altitude of 1784 metres, is Petritsi - the third highest and most imposing peak of Voio.</p><br>
<p>The lower part of Vithos is 1 kilometre from the adjacent village of Pentalofos and the upper part is situated under the huge rocks of Karaouli, or Mopunr Skopos, which overhangs at a height of 200 metres. This mountain is included in the record program of special sceneries of the National Technical University of Athens.</p><br>
<p>The scenery of Vithos is one of the most mountainous of Greece. No other village of Voio is built on such wild and inaccessible place. The big mountains surrounding Vithos, keep the village absolutely hidden so that only one small part of the village is on view from the village Koryfi of the area of Tsotyli.</p><br>
<h3>Springs</h3><br>
<p>Vithos has by analogy, the most springs due to the many steep mountains that surround the village. The water that comes down from the chestnut forest of “Sioust” is so plentiful that the bigger spring has two pipes in order to best serve the inhabitants. The “Mpnaria” spring is located at the nether Vithos. The “Magianadiko”, “Doumousiariko”, “Giouradiko Mpnari” and “Kerasoftades” springs are situated in the upper part of the village and flow from Karaouli. At the centre of the two quarters, near the village school building is the “Pigadouli” spring. and a little bit further by the village. The “Stavros”, or “Agioneri”, spring can be found on the road that leads to the Monastery of Aghia Triada.</p><br>
<h2>Population</h2><br>
<p>Vithos is big in amplitude and used to have around 800 residents. Like many villages in Greece, Vithos has experienced significant urban drift as people move to the city where employment is more plentiful. Significant residents migrated overseas, most prolifically in the period 1940 - 1970, and primarily to New Zealand, Australia and the United States of America.</p><br>
<p>Nowadays, 180 residents keep the village alive during the tough winter months, while in August the residents are more than 350 as expat villagers, from throughout Greece and overseas, return to their family homes for the summer holidays.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Although it is not known when Vithos was first settled local tradition dates the village’s establishment between 1600 and 1620. The village&#39;s first inhabitants were farming families, including families from the old village of “Iskiodolos” (situated at the eastern of Vithos, near the church of the Archangels). About the years 1630–1640 the central part of the village was built by farming families from the old village of “Fteri” (at the foot of Ailias, near “Paliomonastiro”). Around 1700 - 1720 the eastern settlement was built by families resettling from the old villages of “Calogritsa” and Zaltsi” (placed behind Karaouli). Between 1720 and 1740, the highest settlement was constructed by families evicted from the “Cerasovo” of Epirus. Later, people from the destroyed village of “Paliocrimini”, from Cipseli and Souli, settled there. The people who moved from the old villages took to this wild ravine, in order to be able to resist effectually the incursions of the conquerors. Saint Kosmas, Kosmas of Aetolia, passed through this region in the summer of 1777.</p><br>
<p>According to old manuscripts, Dolos is mentioned as a quarter of the large village of Zoupani. In 1884, after the actions of the doctor Cosmas Agacidis, Dolos became an independent community.</p><br>
<p>On the 4th of July 1944 much of the village was burnt by the German army. Most residents fled with their livestock and hid in the hills.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>The architecture of Vithos is typical of the stone architecture found throughout Voio.</p><br>
<h3>Houses</h3><br>
<p>Houses are built with apparent stones, wooden windows and doors and wooden house-tops covered by stone tiles. They are mounted on the sides of the mountains, so perfectly fitted in the areas anaglyph as if they were part of the natural scenery. They are not just ground floor buildings, but also houses of two or three floors with patterns that served the residents needs through their everyday living.</p><br>
<p>The cornerstones underline the outline of the buildings. The characteristic slabs placed on the corners of the buildings on which are chiseled the date of development, the figure of the owner or the master builder or even sacred symbols are there to protect the house and the residents from evil. The buildings are completed by their yards, which are demarcated by high stone fences and characteristic wooden garden doors. The garden doors are decorated in interesting designs with big fat pins, and they have their one protective roof made by wooden frame and slates.</p><br>
<h3>Church</h3><br>
<p>The central church of Vithos is dedicated to the presentation of the Virgin Mary. The church was at this location from 1600, when the village was first established, as well as the small church of Agioi Anargyroi. The small church was burned by the Germans, but afterwards rebuilt and incorporated into the main church. The construction of the church started in the middle of the 18th century and was completed at the beginning of the 19th century. It was burned in 1944, but soon enough it was renovated. The church is celebrated on 21 November each year.</p><br>
<h3>Guest House</h3><br>
<p>The village operates a traditional guest house that can accommodate 11 people in 4 rooms.</p><br>
<h3>School Building</h3><br>
<p>The stone school building was built in 1920. During its acme period it had more than 200 students. The school was rebuilt in 1950 by the Society of the Emigrants to America after it was burned by the Axis occupation of Germans during World War II. The school was permanently closed in 1985, due to lack of students. Today the school building houses a National Resistance museum and a folkloric collection.</p><br>
<h3>Bridges</h3><br>
<p>Three beautiful small stone-made bridges are preserved in Vithos. “Leno’s bridge”, was originally built to connect residents of the upper quarter and the nether quarter of the village, through the “Sioust” chestnut forest. Today it forms part of the trekking path “The Journey of the River Promoritsa”, which begins from the “Monastery” and ends up to the stone-made bridges of Morfi.</p><br>
<p>“Koukoutsili’s bridge” is located at the nether Vithos, descending from the well “Bnari”. Larger than "Leno&#39;s bridge" it connects the two sides of the “Karaouli” stream, which often becomes rapid during the heavy winter and spring rains. It mainly serves the residents of upper Vithos to get to Pentalofos, the wells and the gardens that they kept near the stream.</p><br>
<p>The biggest of the three bridges, is also at the nether Vithos and is used to serve the daily movements from and towards Pentalofos. The stream bed descends from the chestnut forest “Sioust” and as it is wider due to the soft ground, it results in a bigger bridge arch.</p><br>
<h3>Village Square</h3><br>
<p>The village square, Marmaros, was constructed in 1937. Community offices and a cafe were built adjacent to the square in 1971.</p><br>
<h3>Monastery</h3><br>
<p>The Greek Orthodox monastery of Aghia Triada (Holy Trinity), built in 1792, is situated on the outskirts of Vithos. The Monastery&#39;s church which is built with carved stones is a splendid example of the building architecture of Voio. It is famous for its nonesuch Athonic type sanctum and its marvelous icon murals. The monastery is able to accommodate 100 persons.</p><br>
<h2>Heritage</h2><br>
<p>The Cultural Society of Vithos was established in 1965 by the locals. Its aims are to maintain the customs of Vithos, its architecture, the cobbled roads and the country churches. It organizes cultural events. The Society also works to maintain a relationship between the villages permanent inhabitants and the villages diaspora. The Society&#39;s offices are located in the village square, the “Marmaros”, and is endowed with collections of traditional tools, old photographs and books donated by the inhabitants of the village.</p><br>
<p>In 2007 Vithos was featured on an episode of the ERT3 television series O topos kai to tragoudi tou.</p><br>
<p>Beckington Castle is a historic house in the village of Beckington, Somerset, England. It is a Grade II* listed building.</p><br>
<p>It was built in the early 17th century on the site of a medieval building. It has been home to various nobility and local businessmen, also serving as a hotel and school. It is now used as offices.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>It was originally built in the early 17th century, on the site of an earlier medieval building by William Long, a clothier and patron of Beckington Church. In 1569 Williams son Thomas lived there. At some time before 1616 it was sold to James Ley, 1st Earl of Marlborough who was Lord Chief Justice of the Kings Bench in Ireland and then in England; he was an English Member of Parliament and was Lord High Treasurer from 1624 to 1628. He was also a founder member of the Society of Antiquaries.</p><br>
<p>Several local merchants owned the building in the 18th century including Christopher Brewer, Samuel Love, and Nathaniel Mortimer. In the 1780s, Beckington Castle came into the hands of the Chislett family who owned it until 1870. It wasnt until 1839, that the name Castle House was applied to the building. This later evolved into The Castle and later Beckington Castle&#39;. In 1870 George Esdaile bought the Castle for £450, the next owner was Colonel Augustus Hill who held it from 1896 until 1901.</p><br>
<p>Edward Milles Nelson was owner from 1902 to 1926. He was President of the Royal Microscopical Society and author of The Cult of Circle Builders. It was then the home of Captain Hamilton of the Coldstream Guards, who later became the 3rd Baron Hamilton of Dalzell, and in 1942 it was the birthplace of his second son the politician Archie Hamilton, Baron Hamilton of Epsom.</p><br>
<p>It has also served as a hotel, and an antiques showroom. From 1945 to 1970, the Ravenscroft School occupied the building. In February, 1966, a fire began in the Castle&#39;s boiler room and some of the interior was destroyed. Ravenscroft closed for a week, then continued to operate in its outbuildings while the extensive damage was made good.</p><br>
<p>The building is reputedly haunted and it may have been the first building in England which was described in an advertisement for sale as being more desirable because it was haunted. In 2007 it was investigated for paranormal activity.</p><br>
<h2>Current use</h2><br>
<p>In 1989, the Castle, which was in poor condition, and grounds were purchased by Systems Engineering & Assessment Ltd (SEA), which provides technical and procurement support to the Ministry of Defence. Between 1995 and 1996 Beckington Castle was restored by SEA as their headquarters, in co-operation with Mendip Council and English Heritage.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>The three-storey building has three tall gables with copings and finials along the front with two similar gables on each side.</p><br>
<p>The Red Men Hall, later known as Century Hall, is a historic four-story building located in Reading, Pennsylvania.</p><br>
<h2>Red Men</h2><br>
<p>The building originally served as a meeting place for the local lodge or "wigwam" of the Improved Order of Red Men. The Red Men are a fraternal organization which imitate perceived Native American customs. However, this location consisted exclusively of German Americans. The organization had numerous chapters in Pennsylvania beginning in the nineteenth century.</p><br>
<h2>Building</h2><br>
<p>Constructed by the Red Men in 1900, the four-story brick facade building displays American Craftsman style architectural designs with Renaissance Revival elements, and includes decorative tiles by Henry Chapman Mercer. Later, the structure served as a rental hall called Century Hall, capitalizing on the building being built at the turn of the century.</p><br>
<p>The National Register of Historic Places added the structure in 2000. The building now consists of 15 low-income senior housing units.</p><br>
<p>Goosehill Camp is a prehistoric earthwork that dates back to the Iron Age. It consists of two concentric banks and ditches. The inner enclosure has one entrance and surround two levelled hut sites. Goosehill Camp is within the Kingley Vale National Nature Reserve, on the South Downs.</p><br>
<h2>Excavations</h2><br>
<p>Goosehill Camp&#39;s first recorded excavation was carried out by J. R. Boyden. This excavation was carried out between 1953 and 1955.</p><br>
<p>An excavation took place between 2008-2009 and was carried out by the University College London&#39;s Institute of Archaeology, under Mark Roberts. These excavations were complemented by a topographical survey and a magnetometry survey.</p><br>
<p>More recently, between 2014 and 2016 a field survey has been conducted, around Kingley Vale, by programme of volunteer based fieldwork, led under the guidance and support of professional archaeologists.Goosehill Camp was included in the survey.</p><br>
<p>Serra d&#39;En Galceran  is a mountain range of the Valencian Community, Spain.</p><br>
<h2>Geography</h2><br>
<p>The main peaks of the range are the 1,078 m high Tossal de la Vila, Penya Blanca (951 m) and Tossal de la Toiola (939 m). This range is one of the most important areas in Europe where there are still pristine woods and thickets of Phoenician juniper, sometimes mixed with Kermes oak. The Spanish Ibex is abundant in the range.</p><br>
<p>The towns of La Serra d&#39;en Galceran and La Sarratella are located within the mountain range, the former one giving it its name.</p><br>
<p>Parts of this mountain range fall also within the Albocàsser, Les Coves de Vinromà, la Torre den Doménec, Vilanova dAlcolea, Bell-lloc and La Vall d&#39;Alba municipal terms.</p><br>
<p>Elizabeth Place, or the Henry Bond Fargo House, is a historic residence in Geneva, Illinois in the Mission Revival style. The house was owned by Henry Bond Fargo, a prominent local businessmen who brought several early industries to Geneva. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2008.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Henry Bond Fargo was born in 1843 in Warsaw, New York. Fargo was the fourth cousin, once removed of William George Fargo, one of the founders of Wells Fargo and Company. Fargo began to work in real estate in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin. He was successful in these endeavors, and E. A. Cummings and Co., the largest real estate business in Chicago, Illinois, offered him a position as a principal salesman, which he accepted. He moved to the far suburb of Geneva in 1887 to continue his career.</p><br>
<p>Fargo ordered the construction of a new house in 1898 just west of the Fox River. It took two years to complete the house; in the meantime, Fargos wife Annie Elizabeth Fargo died in 1899. In her honor, he named the new dwelling Elizabeth Place. Fargo was elected Genevas mayor in 1903 and served for a full year; he was later re-elected mayor from 1907 to 1910. Two years later, he was elected to the Illinois House of Representatives and served a two-year term. In 1919, he petitioned Geneva to rename the street of his residence Elizabeth Place to match the house&#39;s name. Henry Bond Fargo was a lifelong Freemason, and offered his home to the Masons upon his death in 1932. However, his descendants struck a deal with the Masons to instead donate a separate property at State and Second Streets, and the house remained in the family. The residence and coach house was added to the National Register of Historic Places on May 12, 2008.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>Elizabeth Place is an example of a Mission Revival style residence. Most early residences in Geneva were either of Greek Revival or Italianate influence, making Elizabeth Place architecturally distinct in the immediate area. Inspired by Spanish missions in California, the style eventually spread throughout the nation in the early 20th century. The property features a residence, a coach house (a contributing property to the nomination), a wood frame garage, terraces, and a small creek. The house features parapets inspired by Spanish churches with Palladian windows on the south, west, and east sides. The roof is of red clay tile from Ludowici Roof Tile, Inc. Most of the exterior is locally quarried limestone in a soldier course. A wrap-around porch is screened on the east side and open on the south side. This porch was reconstructed in 2006 based on photographs from the 1940s. A second porch was added in 2006 to allow access to the first floor from the north side. The south side has four single hung windows and a large entrance door with sidelights. A chimney breaks through the roof of the west side.</p><br>
<p>The basement is accessed through the kitchen and features a walk out door to the north side to grade. The first floor is centered on a stair hall with stairs to the second floor. This hall has a large wood entrance door with a large glass light. An oversized oak newel with an ornate cap features in the center of the staircase, which has large wood balusters. Most of the first floor maintains its historic integrity except for the kitchen, which was also remodeled in 2006. The living room is to the east of the stair hall with a fireplace, a coffered ceiling, and a hardwood floor. A five-paneled door leads to the dining room, which is similarly themed (with no fireplace). The family parlor is to the west of the entrance with built-in bookshelves, paneled walls, a coffered ceiling, and a wood floor. The west and south sides of the room each have two single hung windows. On the second floor, the stair hall features a large sitting area. The northeast corner room, originally a bedroom, was converted into the master bathroom. A second bathroom along the back hall was original before being remodeled in the 1920s or 1930s. The two south bedrooms each have a large window. A small, secondary staircase leads from the back hall to the kitchen, and a third staircase leads to the third floor ballroom. This floor was originally open and unfinished, but has since been remodeled to fit a bedroom, a bathroom and an open space with a fireplace.</p><br>
<p>The coach house is 30 ft&sup2; with a four-sided gable asphalt shingle roof. A stone walled courtyard, built around 1940, lies to the east, visually connecting the coach house to the main house. The coach house has thirteen double hung windows. The west side originally featured a garage door but was replaces for two large French doors with sidelights. The first floor is now used as a home office. A staircase leads to a small bedroom. A door on the east leads to the courtyard. A standalone garage was built in the early 1990s, featuring a single and a double garage door. The roof and the window patterns match the coach house.</p><br>
<p>Ravensworth Castle is a ruined 14th-century castle in the village of Ravensworth, North Yorkshire, England. It has been designated a Grade I listed building by English Heritage.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The earliest reference to the castle records a visit from King John in 1201.</p><br>
<p>The remaining parts of Ravensworth Castle date from the late 14th century, when it belonged to Henry, 1st Baron FitzHugh. In 1391 he enclosed 200 acres around the castle, creating a park. The castle was gradually dismantled, starting in the 16th century, and the stone was used for other buildings in the area.</p><br>
<p>Ravensworth Castle and Park Wall were given a Grade I listed building designation by English Heritage on 4 February 1969. The Grade I listing is for buildings "of exceptional interest, sometimes considered to be internationally important". The castle and nearby earthworks have been designated a Scheduled Ancient Monument.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>The castle is located on the south east side of Ravensworth.</p><br>
<p>The castle is surrounded by a dry moat. Constructed of sandstone and faced with ashlar, the remaining structure consists of a three-storey tower attached to a gatehouse, with further wall and tower fragments.</p><br>
<p>Chichester Guildhall is an ecclesiastical building in Chichester, West Sussex, England. The name is a bit of a misnomer, as the building was constructed as a chancel by the Grey Friars of Chichester, an Order of Franciscans. The Grey Friars received the land, now called Priory Park, in a grant from Richard, Earl of Cornwall, in 1269.</p><br>
<p>The first record of the Church in Priory Park talks of an ordination held by Archbishop John Peckham, in 1283. This date ties in with the architectural features of the Guildhall. The building is a magnificent example of late 13th-century architecture and is one of the few Franciscan churches in England that is still roofed.</p><br>
<p>The building is an aisleless structure, 82 by with a height of 42 ft. The western wall was a later addition, leading to the belief that some portion on the nave must have at least been begun. This modification to the building was executed so as to allow the chancel arch to remain visible spanning the whole width of the structure. Symmetrical windows separated by buttresses line the northern and southern sides of the building. The windows have simple chamfers on the outside with no further mouldings.</p><br>
<p>Spesutie Island is a 1,500 acre island located in the Chesapeake Bay in Harford County, Maryland, United States. It lies 5.5 mi southeast of Aberdeen, Maryland. Spesutie Narrows bounds the island on the west and the bay bounds it on the north, east, and south. The island is part of Aberdeen Proving Ground.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Evidence has been found of the historic presence of Native Americans on Spesutie Island. The Smith family sold the island in 1900 and by 1927 ownership had passed to the Susquehanna Development Company. In 1936, J. P. Morgan, Jr. built a house on the island to use as a hunting lodge. The Spesutie Island Hunting and Fishing Club maintained the island until 1945 when the United States government purchased it and incorporated it into Aberdeen Proving Ground.</p><br>
<h3>Other names</h3><br>
<p>The United States Geological Survey records the following variant names for Spesutie Island: Bearsons Island, Spes Island, Spes Utia Island, Spes Utie Island, and Spesutia Island.</p><br>
<h2>Wildlife</h2><br>
<p>Spesutie Island is home to a large population of bald eagles.</p><br>
<p>The Lotz House is a building in Franklin, Tennessee that was built in 1858. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.</p><br>
<h2>History and the Battle of Franklin</h2><br>
<p>The land on which the house was constructed was purchased from the Carter family by German emigrants Johann Albert Lotz and Margaretha Lotz. Johann, a very talented woodworker, constructed such things as pianos and much of the house itself. Inside the home were plentiful examples of intricate details which showcased his skill. Some of these details include three fireplaces whose designs range from very simple to intricate, as well as a solid black walnut handrail that wraps around a staircase from the ground floor to the second floor of the home. Margaretha bore six children, Paul and Amelia (from a former marriage), Augustus, Matilda and twins Julius and Julia.</p><br>
<p>In 1864, the Union Army, expecting a Confederate attack, began to mobilize large numbers of soldiers in the general area of the Carter and Lotz houses. The Union soldiers cut down every tree they could to prevent Confederate sniping and poisoned much of the water supply. This would prove tragic when the Lotz twins, Julius and Julia, went out to play at a nearby stream and were killed by the poison in the water.</p><br>
<p>With the Battle of Franklin imminent, the Lotz family took refuge in the cellar of the Carter house because the Lotz house had no substantial or hidden shelter. Johann salvaged as many of his tools as he could before hiding because the tools were necessary to support his family. The battle raged on for five hours and is considered one of the bloodiest battles of the Civil War.</p><br>
<p>When the two families emerged from shelter, the area was a wasteland - piles of bodies and evidence of brutal hand-to-hand combat. The Lotz house was still standing, though damaged. The south wall had been blasted off, most likely by Confederate forces. Cannon ball holes can be seen inside the house to this day. Johann was quick to repair the house.</p><br>
<p>The house became a field hospital after the battle. To this day a visitor can see many bloodstains on the floors and walls all over the house.</p><br>
<h2>After the Civil War</h2><br>
<p>Family life went on as usual after the Confederate surrender. McGavock Confederate Cemetery, not far from the house, contains the bodies of 1,481 Confederate soldiers. Johann continued woodworking and Matilda, an avid artist since young childhood, began to expand her talents and specialized in painting animals. Soon, her artwork became popular, even becoming known throughout Europe. She was also known to have an uncanny ability to attract animals to herself.</p><br>
<p>Later in life, Johann Lotz was forced to flee the Lotz house with his family after constructing a piano with a controversial image carved into it: he carved an American eagle holding up an American flag with one foot and a Confederate flag with the other, which was pointing down. Confederate activists sought to destroy the piano and perhaps kill Johann. Though the house was unharmed, the piano was taken outside and burned. Lotz and his family trekked across the country to San Jose, California.</p><br>
<p>Today the house is a museum where there are many interesting artifacts to be seen. Its close location to the Carter House and the Franklin Battlefield make it an ideal destination for tourists</p><br>
<p>The Maney-Sidway House, also known as Jasmine Grove and as Myles Manor, is a building in Franklin, Tennessee originally built c.1836, that was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.</p><br>
<p>The building served as a hospital for Union wounded following the Battle of Franklin.</p><br>
<p>It was extensively remodelled in 1916 in Neo-Classical style, including adding an elliptical, two-story portico to the main facade of the building. For the 1916 renovations of the property, it is included in a survey of historic resources of Williamson County as one of only a few notable residential structures in the county that were built during 1900-1935. Henry H. Mayberry House was another, as was a remodelling of the Randal McGavock House, both reflecting Neo-Classical style.</p><br>
<p>The National Register listing includes 11.9 acre with two contributing buildings, one contributing structure, and two non-contributing structures.</p><br>
<p>Fort Granger is a property in Franklin, Tennessee that is now a City of Franklin park, in the central Franklin area. It was part of American Civil War fortifications of Franklin and includes trenches dug by Civil War soldiers.</p><br>
<p>The Union Army captured Nashville early in 1862 and occupied Franklin within a few weeks. The troops occupying Franklin were under the command of Maj. Gen. Gordon Granger, for whom the fort is named. The Union Army, fearful of local unrest and Confederate guerrillas, began planning and construction for an artillery position that would protect the Nashville railroad line nearby. Construction began in 1863 and was overseen by Capt. W. E. Morrill.</p><br>
<p>A letter written by James L. Rogers, 98th Ohio Infantry, on June 4, 1863 reveals some of the Federal units who constructed Fort Granger. Rogers states in part, "For the last 2 months and over we have been camped in, near Franklin, Tenn. While our stay there, our time was principally occupied in working on the fortifications and scouting occasionally. And on the 2nd day of June General Grainger’s commenced including the 125th.O., 124th., O, 113th., O., 121st.O., 98th.O., 40th.O., 115th.ILL., 96th., ILL., 12ILL., & 84th Ind., and 2 or 3 regts of cavalry & 3 battries left Franklin at 6 a.m." The Samuel Boyd Map shows the positions of the Federal unit&#39;s camp sites at Franklin in 1863.</p><br>
<p>The fort was to be located on Figuer&#39;s Bluff, just north of the Harpeth River and parallel to the railroad to Nashville. The completed fort incorporated nearly 275,000 square feet. The fort is approximately 781 feet long and 346 wide. Until the Battle of Franklin, the fort was only occupied by a small garrison.</p><br>
<p>The entrance to the fort was called the Sally Port. This fort within a fort was meant for times of overpowering attacks where defenders could make a final stand against invaders. The Cavalier was ideal for artillery because it provided the best view of the surrounding landscape.</p><br>
<p>The Union army hanged two Confederate spies at the fort on June 9, 1863. The artillery in the fort was utilized twice in 1863 against Confederate cavalry forces.</p><br>
<p>In September 1864, Confederate Gen. John Bell Hood led the Army of Tennessee against Union Gen. William T. Sherman&#39;s supply lines after Sherman defeated Hood at Atlanta. Hood directed the army north into Tennessee.</p><br>
<p>The Confederate Army was subject to massed fire from the Union artillery in the fort. Four 3-inch rifled cannons in Fort Granger were fired by Capt. Giles J. Cockerill, Battery D, 1st Ohio Light Artillery. The Confederates suffered serious casualties to the 163 rounds fired by Cockerill’s guns. The right wing of the Confederate line, commanded by Gen. A. P. Stewart’s Corps suffered the most from these rounds,</p><br>
<p>A 20 acre area of the property, including one contributing structure and one contributing site, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973.</p><br>
<p>There is a boardwalk on the southern side of the fort that leads to a trail, eventually connecting to Pinkerton Park.</p><br>
<p>Roper&#39;s Knob Fortifications is another NRHP-listed fortification on the Franklin battlefield area.</p><br>
<p>Geneva Country Day School, also known as the Geneva Memorial Community Center, is an historic building in Geneva, Illinois. The school originated in the barn of Mr. and Mrs. William D. Bangs after they decided to tutor their sick son and his friends. Eventually this school, which they called the Adventure School, outgrew the barn and a new building was required. The Bangs family contracted Holabird & Roche to develop the building, and the new school opened in 1927. It served the community as a progressive school for 12 years, until it was forced to close due to low enrollment during the Great Depression. The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The building was erected as a school in 1927 and functioned as such until it was closed in 1939 due to the Great Depression. It was designed by the notable architectural firm of Holabird & Roche. It was designed to resemble a home to improve the comfort level of students. The Geneva Day School was an early adapter of the reformed school movement that saw teachers as guides instead of taskmasters. It was founded by the Bangs family; William D. Bangs was a general counsel for Illinois Bell. He held degrees from Princeton University and Harvard Law, and his wife from Vassar College. After their first child developed pneumonia, they home schooled him and his friends, calling it the "Adventure School". Word spread about the Adventure School, and soon several prominent local figures enrolled their children. Soon, over fifty students through grade 11 attended the classes.</p><br>
<p>The 1919 barn that originally was used as a school was too small, promoting the construction of a new venue in 1927. William Bangs offered a tract of land across from a golf course for the school. Bangs was familiar with Holabird & Roche through Illinois Bell, so they were tasked with designing the building. The University of Chicago School of Education was consulted to design the school&#39;s strategy, help in design, and choose a principal. One of the students in the school was the son of a trustee for the university. The school grounds included a soccer and football field, a basketball court, a baseball diamond, and a playground.</p><br>
<p>The Geneva Country Day School attracted teachers proficient in many areas including art and music, allowing the school to focus on developing sportsmanship, workmanship, and social responsibility. The school battled with perceptions that it was elitist, and tried to sway locals by offering some free school classes to younger students. Local public school were motivated to compete with the Country Day School and soon offered more child-oriented schooling. The school was forced to close in 1939 due to low enrollment stemming from the Great Depression. The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places on August 21, 1989. It was home to the Fox River Valley chapter of the Red Cross before being rezoned as a private residence.</p><br>

<p>The Geneva Country Day School is a one-story structure shaped like an H. It is wood framed with shingle siding. It measures 74 ft by 55 ft with an asphalt-shingled gable roof. A brick chimney rises on the west end of the middle section with an octagonal cupola with a copper roof. The building lies on the northernmost portion of the 4.8 acre lot. A library is in the center of the school with two classrooms on each side; each side corresponded to a different age group. Double hung windows line the library&#39;s north and south walls. A vaulted ceiling originally topped the library but has since been replaced by a flatter, more acoustic design. French doors connect the library to the classrooms. An additional French door on the north side connects the building an exterior porch, which has four columns. A terrace adjoined the building on the south side, accessed from the southern classrooms through French doors; however, most of this terrace his since been removed. In total, the building has forty-five double hung windows; thirty are six over six and fifteen are four over four. A basement, accessed through an exterior staircase, has more classrooms and bathrooms.</p><br>
<p>The building does not resemble any one architectural style, but is reminiscent of a bungalow or cottage. Aside from the removal of the terrace, the exterior of the building resembles what the building looked like in 1927. The interior is less preserved; the floor plan is intact, but floors have been carpeted and ceilings dropped.</p><br>
<p>The McGavock–Gaines House, also known as Riverside, is a historic mansion in Franklin, Tennessee.</p><br>
<h2>Location</h2><br>
<p>The house is located on Caruthers Road, east of the Lewisburg Pike, in Franklin, a small town in Williamson County near Nashville, in the Southern state of Tennessee.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The mansion was built circa 1840 for James Randal McGavock, the son of Randal McGavock, who served as the Mayor of Nashville, Tennessee from 1824 to 1825 and owned the Carnton Plantation.</p><br>
<p>It was remodelled in Classical Revival style in c.1920.</p><br>
<h2>Architectural significance</h2><br>
<p>It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since April 13, 1988. When listed the property included two contributing buildings, one contributing structure, and one non-contributing building, on an area of 3.2 acre.</p><br>
<p>Grüner See  is a lake in Styria, Austria in a village named Tragöß. The lake is surrounded by the Hochschwab Mountains and forests. The name "Green Lake" originated because of its emerald-green water.</p><br>
<p>However, in spring, when the temperature rises and snow melts, the basin of land below the mountains fills with water. The lake reaches its maximum depth of around 12 m from mid-May to June and is claimed to look the most beautiful at this time. In July, the water begins to recede.</p><br>
<p>The lake supports a variety of fauna such as snails, water fleas (Daphnia pulex), small crabs, fly larvae, and different species of trout (Salmo). The flora is not abundant because of the rocky bottom of the lake. Furthermore, the lake’s depth is variable since its inflow comes from snowmelt.</p><br>
<p>The lake was popular among divers who could observe the green meadows in the edge zone of the lake particularly in June when the water is at its highest.</p><br>
<p>Because of the spike in tourist visits that has occurred and expected damage of this sensitive environment, the use of this lake for all watersports activities has been prohibited since 1 January 2016.</p><br>
<p>Cherbourg Harbour , is a harbour situated at the northern end of the Cotentin peninsula, on the English Channel coastline in northwestern France. With a surface area of 1,500 hectares, it is the second largest artificial harbour in the world, after the 4,500 hectare Ras Laffan Harbour in Qatar. Cherbourg has been used for mercantile shipping as well as a naval base.</p><br>
<p>It was begun in 1783, with its central harbour wall completed in 1853 - this was 3.64 km long, an average of 100m wide at its base and an average of 12 m wide at its top, and sited 4 km from the coast. Three forts were added to the central wall in 1860. This and the two other harbour-walls stretch for more than 6 km. The eastern opening into the harbour is 950 m wide and the western one 2.3 km wide. The harbour&#39;s maximum depth is 13 m at low tide.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Cherbourg had been a strategic stronghold for several centuries - its castle was first built in the 5th century to protect the whole width of the Cotentin. In the 17th century Vauban, Marshal of France, launched a project to fortify the town, but they were finally razed shortly afterwards. In 1692 several naval ships under Amiral de Tourville put into the port at Cherbourg after the opening battle of the Battles of Barfleur and La Hogue&mdash;the ports lack of adequate defences were revealed when fire ships destroyed many of the French ships under repair, including Le Triomphant at the entry point into the port, LAdmirable on the Mielles, and the Soleil Royal, the admiral&#39;s flagship, on the pointe du Hommet.</p><br>
<p>The long-planned fortification of the town was finally set in motion by Louis XVI of France. In 1776, he set up a commission to choose between Cherbourg, Ambleteuse or Boulogne as Frances main strategic port for defence of the English Channel - this was headed by Suffren and also including Dumouriez (later governor of Cherbourg) and La Bretonnière. La Bretonnières report considered that only Cherbourg had a harbour large enough for 80 warships at once. Exceeding Vaubans designs, he planned the construction of a 4 km long harbour wall between île Pelée and pointe de Querqueville. Dumouriez and Decaux, head of the engineers, advised that Louis build a shorter harbour in a straight line between île Pelée and pointe du Hommet, as foreseen by Vauban, with a single central entry point, with the emphasis on military defences. In the end La Bretonnières plan won, but during the construction phase Decaux argued for the merits of concrete masonry caissons whereas La Bretonnière preferred sinking old warships and building up rock around them. However, the engineer Louis-Alexandre de Cessart&#39;s plans were chosen, which involved constructing a mole from 90 tree trunks 20m by 20m, filled in with stones and linked by iron chains.</p><br>
<p>Construction began in 1783 and was completed in 70 years, by three architects - La Bretonnière, Louis-Alexandre de Cessart and Joseph Cachin. The first trunk was laid on 6 June 1784, one kilometre from Île Pelée, and the harbour was filled with 300 to 400 boats ferrying stone from the port at Becquet to the mole to build against the trunks. However, the first trunks were severely damaged by storms. On 22 June 1786 Louis XVI made his only trip away from Paris and Versailles to see how far work on the harbour had progressed and assisted in sinking the ninth stone section. Cessarts plans were finally scotched in 1788, with funding having run out and the French Revolution imminent. This marked a return to La Bretonnières plan, but in the period between 1789 and 1790 Dumouriez and Cessart left Cherbourg. Subsidies for the project were cut in 1790 and La Bretonnière was forced to hand in his resignation in 1792. Despite a law passed on 1 August 1792 ordering the construction of the military outer port, all works were suspended from 1792 to 1802.</p><br>
<p>In 1802, intending to make Cherbourg one of his main military ports in preparation for his invasion of the United Kingdom, Napoleon I ordered that work on the harbour wall be resumed to La Bretonnières plans, by building up the central section to mount cannon. A decree of 25 germinal year XI (1803) ordered the engineer Cachin to excavate the military outer harbour at lac de Moeris - this was opened on 27 August 1813 in the presence of empress Marie-Louise of Austria. That decree also ordered the construction of a new arsenal at the port. 1803 also saw Cherbourgs harbour fend off British attacks and become a base for privateers.</p><br>

<p>Serra de la Fatarella is one of the isolated mountain ranges of the Catalan Central Depression located off the southern end of the Catalan Pre-Coastal Range between La Fatarella and Ascó in Spain.</p><br>
<p>The ridges highest point is 563.5 m; another important summit is 552 m high Punta de lHome. This smooth range runs in a N - S direction.</p><br>
<p>The 18th century renaissance style Ermita de la Misericòrdia is located on a 526 m high summit of the range. It has been reconstructed recently.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>These mountains, along with Serra de Pàndols further west and Serra de Cavalls in the south, were the scenario of bloody battles during the Battle of the Ebro in the Spanish Civil War (1936–39). The Ebro Battle was also the last action of the International Brigades, who were withdrawn midway through it.</p><br>
<p>Wind turbines have been built on top of the Serra de la Fatarella ridge.</p><br>
<p>The Grasmere Schoolhouse No. 9 and Town Hall, also known as the Grasmere Grange Hall, is an historic building located at 87 Center Street in the village of Grasmere in Goffstown, New Hampshire. Designed by W.W. Ireland in the Queen Anne style of architecture, it was built as a dual-function public building in 1889 on the site of a 1700s religious and governmental building. Over the years it has also been used by many local groups, including the now defunct Junior Grange No. 150, which was organized in 1890.</p><br>
<p>Although no longer used today for its two original uses, it is still used for some public purposes such as the Goffstown Municipal Court and other local governmental agencies. Current private uses include the Merri-Loo Community Preschool, which leases part of the ground floor, and the Jaycees.</p><br>
<p>On September 5, 1990, Grasmere Schoolhouse No. 9 and Town Hall was added to the National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<p>Hasty Bank is a hill in the Cleveland Hills range of the North York Moors, in north-east England. The Cleveland Way National Trail crosses Hasty Bank and is part of Wainwright&#39;s Coast to Coast Walk. The north face of Hasty Bank has heavily eroded, possessing a vertical rocky face sloping steeply down to Broughton Bank. Roseberry Topping can be clearly seen from the summit which offers great views of the Tees Valley.</p><br>
<p>From the north, Hasty Bank is easily identified in line with Carlton Bank, Cringle Moor, Cold Moor, and Urra Moor which form the more northern facing hills of the range, before sweeping north to become the west facing hills up towards Roseberry Topping.</p><br>
<h2>The Wainstones</h2><br>
<p>A large rocky outcrop known as the Wainstones lies at the western end of Hasty Bank, just below the summit. Exhibiting carvings including cup and ring markings, dating back to the Bronze Age, these rocks may once have held significant importance to prehistoric locals.</p><br>
<p>The Harwood School is a historic building in Albuquerque, New Mexico, which was originally a Methodist boarding school. Built in 1925, it is a two-story, H-shaped building with a red brick facade and Neoclassical detailing. The building ceased operating as a school in 1976 and now houses a community art center as part of the outreach programs of Escuela del Sol Montessori . It was listed on the New Mexico State Register of Cultural Properties in 1979 and the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.</p><br>
<p>The Harwood Girls&#39; School was established in 1887 by Emily Harwood and her husband Thomas, a Methodist minister. The school operated from various locations including a house in Downtown Albuquerque before moving to the 7th Street location in 1925. Two additional buildings were added to the campus in 1935 and 1940, respectively. The Harwood School continued to serve girls in grades 1-12 until the 1970s, when it was closed due to lack of funding.</p><br>
<p>The Altai flood refers to the cataclysmic flood that according to some geomorphologists swept along the Katun River in the Altai Republic at the end of the last ice age. These glacial lake outburst floods were the result of periodic sudden ruptures of ice dams like those triggering the Missoula flood.</p><br>
<h2>Background</h2><br>
<p>Large glacial outburst floods have been researched since the 1920s in USA only. In the 1980s, Russian geologist Alexei N. Rudoy proposed the term diluvium for deposits created as a result of catastrophic outbursts of Pleistocene giant glacier-dammed lakes in intermontane basins of the Altai. The largest of these lakes (the conjoined Chuya and Kuray) had a water volume of hundreds of cubic kilometers.</p><br>
<h2>Evidence</h2><br>
<h3>Gravel ripples</h3><br>
<p>Giant current ripples (gravel wave trains, diluvial dunes and antidunes) of up to 18 meters high and 225 meters per wavelength were created at several places on the lake bottom. They are best developed just east of the Tyetyo River in the eastern part of the Kuray Basin but several other smaller fields of giant current ripples also occur there. They are made up of rounded pebble gravel.</p><br>
<h3>Giant bars</h3><br>
<p>Giant bars found along the lower Chuya River and the Katun River as much as 300 m above modern river levels, with lengths up to five kilometers. Well developed on the Katun River below its confluence with the Chuya River, the bars appear to have formed like giant point bars, on the inner bends of the river, as opposed to the scoured bare bedrock walls of the ‘cut bank’ on the outer bends. These bars diminish in height and thickness downstream to about 60 m near Gorno-Altaisk.</p><br>
<p>Some of these bars form lakes when blocking small tributaries of the Katun.</p><br>
<h3>Suspension gravels</h3><br>
<p>Much of the gravel deposited along the Katun valley lacks a stratigraphic structure, showing characteristics of a deposition directly after suspension in a turbulent flow.</p><br>
<h3>Large blocks</h3><br>
<p>Unique block deposits (http://ice.tsu.ru/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=150:diluvial-boulder-berms&catid=1:2011-02-16-05-33-21&Itemid=48 diluvial berms of Rudoy) cap erosional terraces that are a few kilometers long, tens of</p><br>
<p>meters wide, and about 4 m above the lower bars. Block sizes range up to 20 m on the long axis, and show no</p><br>
<p>evidence of rounding Fig. 31. Cuspate erosional hollows</p><br>
<p>and accumulation ridges are associated with individual</p><br>
<p>blocks. Rudoy 2003, pers. comm. estimates the discharge</p><br>
<p>required to transport these blocks in suspension was about 1</p><br>
<p>million cms, with a duration of maximum flow of about 10</p><br>
<p>minutes.</p><br>
<h3>Ice-rafted blocks</h3><br>
<p>Ice-rafted boulders up to several meters in diameter.</p><br>
<h3>Eddy deposits</h3><br>
<p>Eddy deposits are seen along the Katun River between Inya and Mali Yaloman.</p><br>
<h2>Multiple flood hypothesis</h2><br>
<p>Dating of the gravel bars has yielded at least 3 times of deposition, suggesting that multiple floods occurred.</p><br>
<h2>The current understanding</h2><br>
<p>Towards the end of the last glacial period, 12,000 to 15,000 years ago, glaciers descending from the Altai mountains dammed the Chuya River, a large tributary of the Katun River, creating a large glacial lake including the Chuya and the Kurai basins.Baker, V. R., G. Benito, A. N. Rudoy, Paleohydrology of late Pleistocene Superflooding, Altay Mountains, Siberia, Science, 1993, Vol. 259, pp. 348-352</p><br>
<p>As the lake grew larger and deeper, the ice dam eventually failed, causing a catastrophic flood that spilled along the Katun River. This flood may have been the greatest discharge of freshwater on Earth, since its magnitude has been estimated similar to that of the Missoula flood in North America.</p><br>
<h3>Timing</h3><br>
<p>The ages of catastrophic flooding is not tightly constrained, and may involve several events. The mechanisms of lake filling and ice dam failure would suggest an early or late glacial time, whereas conditions at glacial maxima would seem to preclude such events. The catastrophic flood(s) occurred between 12000 BC and 9000 BC.</p><br>
<p>Most of the water discharge is thought to have occurred during one day, with peak discharges of 10 m/s (Herget, 2005). The maximum lake volume was 6x10 m (600 km) with an area of 1.5x10 m. The ice dam was about 650 m high.</p><br>
<h3>Flood route</h3><br>
<p>When the ice dam failed, floodwaters coursed down the Chuya River to the confluence with the Katun River, followed the Katun into the Ob River, and then into Lake Mansi, a large proglacial Pleistocene lake, ~600,000 km in area. The fast inflow raised its level by only ~12 m but some authors argue that, because the Turgay spillway of Lake Mansi was only 8 m above the lake level at the time, much of the floodwater continued into the Aral Sea. From there the flooding waters may have followed through the Uzboy spillway into the Caspian Sea, then through the Maryinsky spillway into the Black Sea, and eventually into the Mediterranean Sea.</p><br>
<p>The Faribault Woolen Mill Company is a textile manufacturing company in Faribault, Minnesota, United States, that produces and sells wool blankets and other woolen products. Its products included ingeo, cotton, acrylic and wool bed blankets, pillows, mattresses, pads, and baby blankets, and wool, ingeo and blend throws. The company primarily serves various enterprise sectors. It offers its products through its store in Faribault and nationwide through retailers.</p><br>
<p>The Faribault Woolen Mill Company&#39;s building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2012 for having state-level significance in the theme of industry. It was nominated for being one of the largest and oldest fully integrated woolen mills in Minnesota.</p><br>
<p>The plant closed in 2009, but reopened in September 2011 under new private ownership. At the time it closed in 2009, Faribault Woolen Mills produced more than half of the new wool blankets made in the United States and was one of the few remaining woolen mills in the country.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Faribault Woolen Mills building is a product of over one hundred years of expansion. The building is utilitarian, with rectangular massing and sections ranging in height from one to three stories. Wall materials, including brick, concrete block, corrugated metal, and exposed timber and steel framing are in keeping with the propertys industrial character. A large surface parking lot extends from the east side of the building around to the south and west sides of the building. The mill is part of an industrial area, which includes a cannery, on the edge of the citys residential core. The exterior of the building is simple and undecorated.</p><br>
<p>The company invested most of its profits in the interior to improve efficiency in the manufacturing process, with the last reorganization of the machinery occurring in 1971.The most recent major addition dates to that same time. The interior of the building reflects the mill&#39;s purpose as well. With the exception of the executive offices, it is industrial in character. Older sections of the building are timber-framed with exposed brick walls.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Before the American Civil War, most woolen goods used in the United States were imported. After the war, domestic wool manufacturing increased as the country became more industrialized. The growth of wool production was aided by the Tariff Acts of 1867. The acts provided protection for domestic wool makers and made them more competitive. In Minnesota, the 1860s saw the beginning of many woolen manufacturing companies.</p><br>
<p>The Faribault Woolen Mill started as a small family-owned business in the 19th century and grew to become the largest and longest-surviving woolen mill in the state. Carl Henry Klemer entered the woolen mill business in 1865. From the beginning he chose a conservative approach to his business by keeping the financing and operations in the family. While larger mills were failing, the Klemers&#39; continued to expand. In 1878 the company advertised as the "Faribault Woolen Mill" for the first time. Four years later Klemer moved the business to a stone building on the Straight River.</p><br>
<p>Over the next ten years, three fires devastated the mill. In 1892 the building was totally destroyed, and the Klemers purchased property on the Cannon River. They immediately built a fireproof brick building and in 1894 replaced the wooden dam that powered the facility with one made of stone. Throughout the 1890s the mill served local clients and continued to grow.</p><br>
<p>The company made a transition in leadership in 1904 when founder Carl Klemer died. His oldest grandson, Frank Klemer, joined the business along with other members of the Klemer family. In 1905 the company formally adopted the name it had been known by since the 1880s. It officially incorporated as the Faribault Woolen Mill Company.</p><br>
<p>Growth during the early 1900s was slow, but the change in leadership brought new products and small additions to the facility. In 1917 the company was awarded a contract with the USA Army for 100,000 blankets. This contract was a great success and led to growth in business during the 1920s. During the 1930s, the next generation of the Klemer family joined the company. Through the Great Depression years the company survived and even expanded. During World War II the mill manufactured army blankets. Afterward the younger generation of Klemers began managing the company. Marketing became a focus along with synthetic fiber experimentation and importing wool. Throughout the latter half of the twentieth century the facility grew gradually. Faribault Woolen Mills led the market with new products like washable wool and thermal weave blankets. In the early 1970s the company saw its greatest profit and made the largest addition to its facility.</p><br>
<p>In the 1990s the mill began to struggle. It was eventually purchased by North American Heritage Brands, but the Klemers still managed the company. North American Heritage Brands went bankrupt, and in 2009 the mill closed. In the autumn of 2011 cousins Chuck and Paul Mooty purchased the Faribault Woolen Mill and reopened the business. Since 2011 the Mootys have reinvigorated the brand and marketing of Faribault Woolen Mill. The history of the mill is celebrated and incorporated into the companys product labeling. The companys main slogans are "the return of American excellence" and "loomed in the land of lakes".</p><br>
<p>Mount Farrell is a mountain over 2,600 m high, rising just northwest of Dater Glacier and about 13 nmi east of Mount Shear, in the Sullivan Heights on the east side of Sentinel Range in the Ellsworth Mountains, Antarctica. It surmounts Pulpudeva Glacier to the northwest, Strinava Glacier to the northeast and Dater Glacier to the south, and is separated from the ridge of Mount Levack to the north by Zmeevo Pass.</p><br>
<p>The mountain was first mapped by the United States Geological Survey from surveys and USA Navy air photos, 1957–59, and was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for Lieutenant Lawrence J. Farrell, USA Navy, who died in the crash of a UB-1 Otter airplane at Marble Point on January 4, 1959.</p><br>

<p>Morrow Point Reservoir is an 817-acre artificial reservoir on the Gunnison River in western Colorado. Located in the upper Black Canyon of the Gunnison, the lake was created in 1968 by the USA Bureau of Reclamation as part of a larger plan to impound the upper section of the Gunnison and create opportunities for hydroelectric power generation, water conservation, and recreation. Morrow Point Reservoir is managed by the National Park Service as a unit within the Curecanti National Recreation Area, and is the location of the Curecanti Needle, a striking 700 ft. granite spire on the reservoir’s southern bank whose unique shape was for decades a recognized symbol of the Denver and Rio Grande Western Railroad.</p><br>
<h2>Background</h2><br>
<p>Morrow Point Reservoir is part of the Wayne N. Aspinall Unit of the Colorado River Storage Project, a Bureau of Reclamation project that retains the waters of the Colorado River and its tributaries, such as the Gunnison, for agricultural and municipal use. The second of three reservoirs impounded for the Aspinall Unit, Morrow Point lies between the larger Blue Mesa Reservoir to the east and the remote Crystal Reservoir, to the west. Morrow Point Reservoir was created by the impoundment of the Gunnison River approximately 12 miles west of Blue Mesa Dam by Morrow Point Dam, a 486-ft. concrete double-arch dam built by the Bureau of Reclamation. Completed in 1968, Morrow Point was the first concrete double-arch dam constructed by the Bureau.</p><br>
<h2>The Needle</h2><br>
<p>One of the most notable features of Morrow Point is the famed Curecanti Needle, a striking 700 foot tall granite spire on the reservoir’s southern shore. Located immediately west of the mouth of Blue Creek and directly across from the mouth of Curecanti Creek, the Needle was a well-known landmark to generations of rail travelers, who passed near to the spire on the Denver & Rio Grande Western’s Black Canyon route between Gunnison and Montrose. Though difficult to access, the Needle is popular with climbers, who must either use a boat or cross the frozen lake in winter to reach the base.</p><br>
<h2>Recreation</h2><br>
<p>Morrow Point Reservoir is part of the Curecanti National Recreation Area, a National Park Service administered area charged with developing and managing recreation facilities on the three reservoirs that compose the Aspinall Unit. Recreational opportunities at Morrow Point include boating (hand-carried craft only), camping, and hiking. There are three small developed areas with lake access, the Pine Creek Trailhead, accessible via USA 50 approximately 1 mile west of Blue Mesa Dam, the Pioneer Point Overlook, north of the reservoir on Colorado Highway 92, approximately 5.5 miles west of Blue Mesa Dam, and the Hermit’s Rest Trailhead, on Co. 92 approximately 17 miles west of Blue Mesa Dam.</p><br>
<p>Pine Creek Trailhead’s 232 steps lead 180 ft. down to the water, where hand-carried craft can be launched. Once on the water, there are two developed and two primitive boat-in campsites along the north shore, and two primitive sites on the south shore. The two-mile (round trip) Pine Creek Trail follows an abandoned narrow-gauge railroad bed. Boat-in camping requires a Backcountry Permit, available at the Pine Creek Trailhead.</p><br>
<p>Pioneer Point Overlook offers a scenic viewing area and is the trailhead for the strenuous Curecanti Creek trail, a 4-mile (round trip) trail with a 900 ft. elevation change. Hikers are rewarded with stunning views of the Curecanti Needle on the south shore. Two campsites with picnic tables, fire grates, and composting toilets are located at the end of the trail.</p><br>
<p>Hermit’s Rest Trailhead gives access to the steep and strenuous Hermit’s Rest Trail. A 6 mile round trip with an 1800 ft. elevation change, the trail ends with lakeside picnic sites and two campsites with picnic tables, fire grates, and composting toilets.</p><br>
<p>Brewer&#39;s Castle is a defended Iron Age settlement in the West Somerset district of Somerset, England. The hill fort is situated approximately 2 mi west from the town of Dulverton.</p><br>
<p>The settlement survives as an earthwork situated on Hawkridge Ridge Wood. It is also very close to Mounsey Castle.</p><br>
<h2>Background</h2><br>
<p>Hill forts developed in the Late Bronze and Early Iron Age, roughly the start of the first millennium BC. The reason for their emergence in Britain, and their purpose, has been a subject of debate. It has been argued that they could have been military sites constructed in response to invasion from continental Europe, sites built by invaders, or a military reaction to social tensions caused by an increasing population and consequent pressure on agriculture. The dominant view since the 1960s has been that the increasing use of iron led to social changes in Britain. Deposits of iron ore were located in different places to the tin and copper ore necessary to make bronze, and as a result trading patterns shifted and the old elites lost their economic and social status. Power passed into the hands of a new group of people. Archaeologist Barry Cunliffe believes that population increase still played a role and has stated " provided defensive possibilities for the community at those times when the stress burst out into open warfare. But I wouldn&#39;t see them as having been built because there was a state of war. They would be functional as defensive strongholds when there were tensions and undoubtedly some of them were attacked and destroyed, but this was not the only, or even the most significant, factor in their construction".</p><br>
<p>The Dixon–Markle House is located at the corner of East Cooper Avenue and South Aspen Street in Aspen, Colorado, United States. It is a wood frame house erected in the 1880s. In 1987 it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places along with other properties in the city.</p><br>
<p>It is believed to have been the house of a successful miner during the silver-mining boom years that established Aspen. A complex application of the Queen Anne architectural style that is unique in the city, it features an unusual projecting bay on its northeast corner. It has remained relatively intact from the time of its construction.</p><br>
<h2>Building</h2><br>
<p>The house is located on the southwest corner of the intersection, one block west of Rubey Park, which buffers the commercial eastern portion of Aspen from its residential West End. Surrounding buildings are all multiple-unit dwellings. A detached guest house faces an unnamed alley connecting South Aspen and South Garmisch streets south of the property. The terrain is level, with the slopes of Aspen Mountain rising within two blocks to the southwest and south. On the lot&#39;s north bound is a small iron fence, with a stone walk leading to the sidewalk.</p><br>
<p>The building itself is a two-and-a-half-story rectangular structure sided with clapboard and topped with a wood-shingled hipped roof gabled on the north (front) elevation. That two-bay facade has a full-length shed-roofed porch on the ground floor with turned posts, balustrade and a spindled frieze. At the northeast corner is a square-shaped two-story projecting bay topped with a gabled dormer window.</p><br>
<p>On the east facade the porch roof is continued with a belt course of dark wood shingles, flared slightly and set off with molded surrounds. Near the south end of the facade on the first story is another slight projecting bay with a hipped roof. Its two windows are one-over-one double-hung sash, like all those on the house. There is a single window above. On the rear the shingled course ends in a steeply pitched pent-roofed porch with similar treatment to the front.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The house was built by a J.M. Dixon, then a miner, in 1888. At that time Aspen was a prosperous, growing mining town, suffused with the wealth produced by the Colorado Silver Boom. In addition to miners, it had attracted many tradesmen, who were able to build sophisticated houses in contemporary architectural styles for the newly wealthy. The new Queen Anne Style was particularly popular at that time. Most such houses in Aspen were built from pattern-book designs, but the Dixon house appears to be a wholly unique design.</p><br>
<p>Dixon later went into real estate and finance. In the middle of the next decade, after the Panic of 1893 and the ensuing repeal of the Sherman Silver Purchase Act had ended the boom years, he sold the house to L.C. Markle, a local blacksmith. The house, like many of the others from Aspens boom years, fell into neglect during the citys "quiet years" in the early 20th century.</p><br>
<p>By the 1950s, as Aspen was slowly reviving as a popular ski resort, the house was showing the signs of this. All the original paint had gone, and the bare wood was exposed to the elements. In 1953 the one-story gabled barn with shed-roofed addition was added at the back of the lot, on the alley.</p><br>
<p>The house itself would start to see some attention in the next decade. New bathrooms were installed along with new plumbing and electricity in 1964, and the kitchen was updated. The barn was updated into a three-story guest house shortly afterwards.</p><br>
<p>Serious restoration began in the 1980s. The porches came first, in 1982, with new foundations as well. Three years later the roof was reshingled in wood. The whole house has since been repainted.</p><br>
<p>Road Castle is an Iron Age bank and ditch in the West Somerset district of Somerset, England. The hill fort is situated approximately 2 mi west from the village of Winsford. The ditch is almost square in plan with rounded corners and covers an area of approximately 0.7 acres.</p><br>
<h2>Background</h2><br>
<p>Hill forts developed in the Late Bronze and Early Iron Age, roughly the start of the first millennium BC. The reason for their emergence in Britain, and their purpose, has been a subject of debate. It has been argued that they could have been military sites constructed in response to invasion from continental Europe, sites built by invaders, or a military reaction to social tensions caused by an increasing population and consequent pressure on agriculture. The dominant view since the 1960s has been that the increasing use of iron led to social changes in Britain. Deposits of iron ore were located in different places to the tin and copper ore necessary to make bronze, and as a result trading patterns shifted and the old elites lost their economic and social status. Power passed into the hands of a new group of people. Archaeologist Barry Cunliffe believes that population increase still played a role and has stated " provided defensive possibilities for the community at those times when the stress burst out into open warfare. But I wouldn&#39;t see them as having been built because there was a state of war. They would be functional as defensive strongholds when there were tensions and undoubtedly some of them were attacked and destroyed, but this was not the only, or even the most significant, factor in their construction".</p><br>
<p>The Traverse Mountains of Antarctica are a group of almost ice-free mountains, rising to about 1,550 m, and including McHugo Peak, Mount Noel, Mount Allan and Mount Eissinger, between Eureka Glacier and Riley Glacier, east of Warren Ice Piedmont, in western Palmer Land. These mountains were first photographed from the air on November 23, 1935, by Lincoln Ellsworth and were mapped from these photographs by W.L.G. Joerg. They were first surveyed in 1936 by the British Graham Land Expedition  under John Rymill and resurveyed in 1948 by the Falklands Islands Dependencies Survey. The name was first used by BGLE sledging parties because the mountains are an important landmark in the overland traverse from the Wordie Ice Shelf, down Eureka Glacier, to George VI Sound.</p><br>
<p>Digby Island is a small island immediately west of Kaien Island, which is the location of the city of Prince Rupert, British Columbia. The island is home to the Prince Rupert Airport and the small community of Dodge Cove. The island is named for Henry A. Digby, an officer on HMS Malacca.</p><br>
<p>Prior to European colonization, the island was occupied by the Tsimshian for thousands of years. The Tsimshian trickster, Txamsem, was believed to have been born on the island in the village of Kanagatsiyot, at the current site of Dodge Cove.</p><br>
<p>Frederick Point at was one of coastal defences of the West Coast of Canada during World War II, along with other sites around Prince Rupert. Another such defence installation was at Dundas Point on the northeast side of the island at .</p><br>
<p>Glen Echo, also known as Harpeth Hall, is a property in Franklin, Tennessee that was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976. It is a former plantation house that is now the centerpiece and administrative office of the Battle Ground Academy campus.</p><br>
<p>It was designed and/or built c. 1828 by Joseph Ruff. The structure includes Federal architecture. The NRHP listing was for an area of 14 acre with just one contributing building.</p><br>
<p>It was one of about thirty surviving antebellum "significant brick and frame residences" built in Williamson County that were centers of slave plantations. It is one of several of these located "on the rich farmland surrounding Franklin&quot others were the Dr. Hezekiah Oden House, the Franklin Hardeman House and the Samuel Glass House, the Thomas Brown House, the Stokely Davis House, the Beverly Toon House and the Samuel S.

<p>The Loch of Stair was a typical Ayrshire post-glacial Kettle Hole, situated in a low-lying area below the farm of Loch Hill, in the Parish of Stair, East Ayrshire, Scotland. This freshwater loch was drained in the 19th century, leaving a wetland area which still periodically floods.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The loch is recorded as the Loch of Stair in 1654 and Stair Loch in 1747. A roughly circular water body with a single outflow and no inflow.</p><br>
<h3>Drainage</h3><br>
<p>The loch&#39;s drainage may have begun in the 18th century when Alexander Montgomerie, 10th Earl of Eglinton, was pursuing a number of agricultural improvements on his extensive estates and other landowners followed his example. Intensive drainage work may have taken place in the 1740s as part of the improvements undertaken to provide employment for Irish estate workers during the Irish potato famines of the 1740s and the mid 19th centuries. Many drainage schemes also date to the end of World War I when many soldiers returned en masse to civilian life. The first OS maps do not show the loch site as having any open water, however the 1926 OS shows a small loch present.</p><br>
<h3>Usage</h3><br>
<p>The loch&#39;s outflow was via the Glenslang Burn that powered the old Bridgend Mill at Stair.</p><br>
<h3>Cartographic evidence</h3><br>
<p>Blaeus map of 1654, dating from Timothy Ponts survey of circa 1604, clearly shows and names the loch and indicates only an outflow to the River Ayr via the Glenslang Burn. Roys map of 1747 clearly show a Stair Loch. Armstrongs map of 1775 shows a loch with an inflow and outflow with a dwelling known as Loch Side nearby. Ainslies map of 1821 shows a drop-shaped&#39; loch with Lochside marked. Thomson map of 1832 shows the loch and the dwelling of Loch Hill.</p><br>
<h2>Micro-history</h2><br>
<p>In Scots the term Slang as in Glenslang refers to a strip of land used for grazing animals.</p><br>

<p>Hamirsar Lake is a man made lake situated in the centre of Bhuj, the headquarters of Kutch district, Gujarat, India.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Hamirsar lake is a 450-year-old lake named after Jadeja ruler Rao Hamir (1472-1524), the founder of Bhuj. The lake was built during the reign of Rao Khengarji I (1548–1585), the founder of Jadeja dynasty in Cutch, who named it after his father Rao Hamir. Rao Khengarji I chose this place as an oasis in saline and arid Kutch; and over several decades, developed canals and tunnels to bring together water from three river systems and recharge acquifier, to fulfill the needs of Bhuj, which was also declared as capital of his kingdom by him in 1549.</p><br>
<p>The embankment of Lake Hamrisar was made during reign of Pragmalji II and further improvements done during early part of reign of Khengarji III under supervision of state Gaidher, Jairam Ruda Gajdhar. The embankment work was done by local mason community - the Mistris of Kutch.</p><br>
<p>Even before the earthquake of 2001 in Kutch, Hamirsar had lost much of its catchments, and ability to energize the acquifiers of Bhuj. However, after the earthquake, with a view to revive the traditional water system and to develop its catchment to meet the domestic water needs of population of Bhuj, awareness campaign mobilized the citizens, municipality, local press to do the bare minimum repairs to fill up the lake in 2003. The lake became safe and sound before the monsoons of 2003 to impound water. Highest rainfall (22 inches) in the last 50 yrs of span was recorded in 2003 which overflowed the Hamirsar lake making it an occasion to celebrate.</p><br>
<h3>Puja tradition</h3><br>
<p>There is a tradition from the days when Kutch was a princely state and the puja was performed by the royalty, whenever lake overflowed due to rains and a prasad of ladoos called megh laddoos distributed to citizens. Recently, in August, 2010, this historic tradition was once again en lived even though days of royalty have long gone, when the Bhuj municipal president held thanksgiving ceremony in the form of the traditional puja of the lake and offer megh laddoos to its residents at a community dinner. Records indicate that is only 18 times since independence that lake has overflowed.</p><br>
