<p>Burnmoor Tarn, on Eskdale Fell in Cumbria, England, is one of the largest entirely natural tarns in the Lake District. Its waters flow into Whillan Beck at the tarn&#39;s north-eastern corner, which immediately turns south and flows into Eskdale, joining the Esk at Beckfoot. Burnmoor Lodge, a former fishing lodge, stands by the southern shore and a mediaeval corpse road runs past the eastern shore where it fords the beck.</p><br>
<p>The tarn is one of the sites in DEFRA&#39;s UK Upland Waters Monitoring Network. It occupies 23.9 ha and lies at an altitude of 253 m in a moraine hollow on the uplands between Wastwater and Eskdale. The lake has two distinct basins close to the south-eastern shore and a maximum depth of 13 m. There are four main inflow streams to the north and north-west. The outflow at the eastern end joins the Hardrigg Beck which drains the slopes of Scafell and, in times of especially high flow, is partly diverted into the lake across a braided delta.</p><br>
<p>Otay Mountain is a mountain located in San Diego County, California. It is the highest summit of the San Ysidro Mountains. It contains both the Otay Lakes and the Otay Mountain Wilderness Area. The physical border separating Mexico and the United States  has received criticism for the harm it allegedly perpetuated to the environment, both in its construction and in its very nature.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The name "Otay" comes from the Kumeyaay word otie, which means "brushy". In particular, the construction was criticized by author Rob Davis for creating a harsh environment for a species of butterfly due to dust being kicked up by trucks. The fence in the area is estimated to cost approximately $16 million per mile.</p><br>
<p>On March 16, 1991, a Hawker Siddeley HS-125 airplane carrying seven members of singer Reba McEntire&#39;s band, plus her business manager and two pilots, crashed into the side of the mountain after taking off from nearby Brown Field Municipal Airport, killing all ten on board.</p><br>
<p>Otay Mountain has had several wildfire incidents in the past. The plant life in Otay Mountain "burned completely" in 2003, and another wildfire happened later in 2007.</p><br>
<p>Hill 40 is a militarily historic landform on the island of Guam. It is located about 325 m east of Bangi Point, south of Agat on the island&#39;s west coast, rising to a height of 40 to 60 ft above the coastal plain, with a strategically significant view of the Agat Invasion Beach. This hill was the scene of some of the most intense fighting during the landing phase of the 1944 Battle of Guam as Allied forces sought to establish their beachhead against the defending Japanese forces. The American 4th Marine Regiment of the 1st Provisional Marine Brigade captured Hill 40 on June 21, 1944, the day of the landing. That night the Japanese launched a counteroffensive that successfully retook the hill. The Marines regrouped and regained the hill, and held off a second counterattack. The Japanese 38th Regiment was wiped out by this military action.</p><br>
<p>Hill 40 was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975.</p><br>
<p>The Wheelwright Block is a historic commercial building at 34 Hammond Street in Bangor, Maine. Built in 1859, it occupies a central position in the citys West Market Square at the junction of Main, Broad, and Hammond Streets. It was the states first commercial Second Empire building, and notably survived both Bangor&#39;s devastating 1911 fire, and its major urban renewal programs of the late 1960s. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Wheelwright Block stands at the northern end of West Market Square, at the southeast corner of the junction of Main Street (United States Route 202) and Hammond Street (United States Route 2). It is four-story brick building, which is roughly L-shaped due to the angled corner lot, with a flared metal mansard roof with no dormers except for a single one facing the square. The floors are set off from one another by bands of projecting brickwork, and each have slightly different window treatment, although the number and arrangement of windows is consistent on the upper floors. The ground floor had mid-20th-century plate glass store fronts at the time of the building&#39;s listing on the National Register; this treatment has since been altered to have a reconstruction of the buildings original cast iron arched window frames. The window hoods on the upper floors are all original Italianate cast iron elements, with those on the third floor particularly elaborate.</p><br>
<p>The building was designed by Benjamin S. Deane, one of a handful of architects working in Maine in the first half of the 19th century, and was completed in 1859. It is believed to be the first commercial Second Empire building in the state, predating such buildings in the larger cities of Lewiston and Portland. It was built for Wheelwright & Clark, a local clothing business. The block survived Bangor&#39;s 1911 fire, which destroyed a large number of commercial buildings, and its 1968 urban renewal program, which also resulted in the demolition of a great many 19th-century commercial buildings.</p><br>
<p>Praia da Balaia is a small satellite beach at the eastern end of its larger neighbour, Praia Santa Eulália, on the Atlantic south coast of the Algarve. Its is within the municipality of Albufeira and is 3.1 km east of the town of Albufeira and 1.7 km west of the coastal village of Olhos de Água.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The beach is set into a small cove formed by recesses in the low cliffs and rock formations. The beach also includes several further sandy recesses running eastwards, some of which are only accessible during the very low tides. These smaller beaches are also known as Praia do Spout Silvas, a name rarely used. The western part of Balaia can be accessed via a set of wooden boardwalks and steps which lead down the side of the cliffs from the Holiday developments that lay to the north of this part of the shoreline. The steps are often in a poor state of repair due to storm damage.</p><br>
<p>Carson-Andrews Mill and Ben F.W. Andrews House, also known as Andrews Mill, is a historic home and grist mill located near Washburn, Rutherford County, North Carolina.

<p>Karymshina is a Supervolcano in Kamchatka, Russia. that was discovered in 2006 by Vladimir L Leonov and Aleksey N. Rogozin.</p><br>
<h2>Location</h2><br>
<p>Karymshima is located about 50 km SW of Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky. Although it is towards the East side of Kamchatka, it is on Kamchatka&#39;s watershed, with rivers flowing to both the West and East coast.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>Karymshina is a volcanic caldera. There is little to see on the ground since due to the volcano&#39;s great age (1.2-1.5 Million years), it has been eroded and covered by younger lava flows from other volcanoes. The caldera measures about 25 km x 15 km. The highest point is Mount Tolstyi at 1300m. In the Northwest of the caldera, there is an uplifted block, indicating an abortive eruption since forming. At present, the caldera floor is dry, but in the past it contained a lake that has left a sandstone layer. There are thermal springs, apparently heated by a large magma chamber that is still warm.</p><br>
<h2>Eruptive History</h2><br>
<p>The earliest known eruption occurred about 1.5 million years ago. Although it is difficult to estimate ejecta volume due to erosion and more recent activity covering this eruptions ejecta, an estimate of ejecta volume has been produced by the discoverers, i.e. ~ 825 cubic km. This is easily enough to qualify as a super volcano.</p><br>
<p>After this eruption, an uplifted block formed.</p><br>
<p>Rhyolite domes have also formed around the rim, about 500-800,000 years ago.</p><br>

<p>Fort Foster was a military site of the American Revolutionary War in what is now East Machias, Maine. Little more than a large earthworks, it was located on The Rim, a neck of land that commands the confluence of the Machias and East Machias Rivers. The earthworks were built in 1776, and attacked by British forces in the 1777 Battle of Machias. The site was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>Machias Bay is located in Down East Maine, and is fed primarily by the Machias River, which flows generally eastward from the town of Machias toward its confluence with the East Machias River, and then southward into the bay. The East Machias River flows generally southward from Hadley Lake, past the village center of East Machias. Shortly before it meets the Machias River, it bends sharply to the east before turning south again to empty into the other river. The landform between this bend and the point of confluence is locally known as "The Rim". In the 18th century it was recognized for its military value, as it provides a commanding view of the southern stretch of the Machias River and into the bay.</p><br>
<p>Early records of the areas settlement are not clear on when The Rim was first occupied; the area was first settled by Europeans in 1763, and the land was known to have been cleared and in agriculture use by the start of the American Revolutionary War in 1775. Machias was the site of one of the wars first naval encounters, in which a British Navy sloop was captured. After this event, the townspeople decided to fortify The Rim. A breastwork was built there, which was sufficient to repel an attempted landing by British forces in the summer of 1775. In 1776 a more extensive breastwork was built, along with a watch house and barracks, and a log boom was laid across the river just to the south. In August 1777, the British once again arrived in force, and in the second Battle of Machias landed forces on The Rim. Guns mounted at Fort Foster fired on the first ships to arrive, but the fort was abandoned prior to the landing, and its guns were destroyed.</p><br>
<p>After the war The Rim appears to have been abandoned and allowed to become overgrown. In the 1920s it was cleared for blueberry production, and its earthworks, some as much as 6 ft in height, were still visible then. They have since again become overgrown.</p><br>
<p>The West Gouldsboro Village Library is a historic former library building in Gouldsboro, Maine. Located in West Gouldsboro, this building, designed by Fred L. Savage and built in 1907, is one of the only libraries in Maine built in the Tudor Revival style. It served as a library from 1907 to 1956, and again for a period beginning in 1990. The town&#39;s library services are currently provided by the Dorcas Library in Prospect Harbor. This building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture and history</h2><br>
<p>The library is set on the east side of Maine State Route 186, about 0.5 mi south of its western junction with United States Route 1, and immediately adjacent to the West Gouldsboro Union Church. It is a small single-story Tudor Revival structure, with a tall fieldstone foundation and a stuccoed exterior. It has a side-gable roof with chimneys at the sides, and a front-facing gable that projects slightly at the center of the main facade. The entrance consists of a single door flanked by sidelight windows with diamond lights, with paneling below that matches the door. This is topped by an elliptical hood, above which is the half-timbered gable front. The bays on either side of the entrance have three casement windows with small square panes. The inside consists of a single large room with projecting fireplaces on either side, which are flanked by niches with original bookcases. The ceiling is coved plaster, with a molded plaster frame.</p><br>
<p>The idea for construction of the library supposedly originated in 1904 with the minister of the adjacent church. A social library society was formed, and the land was purchased in 1905. The committee retained noted Bar Harbor architect Fred L. Savage to design the building, which was dedicated in 1907. The library operated until 1956, and was thereafter maintained by the West Gouldsboro Village Improvement Association. The library was reopened in 1990, but has since closed.</p><br>
<p>The Sumay Cemetery is a historic cemetery at the junction of Sumay Drive and Guam Highway 1 on the grounds of Naval Base Guam, located on the west side of the United States territory of Guam. It is a roughly square cemetery taking up about 0.7 acre, and is surrounded by a decorative wall with gate. The cemetery was probably established in the late 19th century; its oldest legible marker bears the date 1911. It is the oldest known historic-era cemetery on the island, and is the only tangible reminder of the village of Sumay, which effectively ceased to exist when the naval base took over the area and its citizens were relocated to the village of Santa Rita.</p><br>
<p>The cemetery was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1999.</p><br>
<p>Pine Gables, also known as Logan House and Harris Inn, is a historic inn complex and national historic district located near Lake Lure, Rutherford County, North Carolina. The property encompasses 10 contributing buildings, 5 contributing sites, and 3 contributing structures. The original log sections of the inn dates to about 1800, and enlarged and modified in 1834, 1877, and 1924. It is a 2 1/2-story, frame building with high pitched gables in a vernacular Queen Anne style. Also on the property are the contributing Old Tearoom  now used as a single family dwelling, a one-story stone structure , seven guest cabins , a craft shop , rock wall , three ponds , a segment of Old Highway 20 , and the shoreline of Lake Lure . Judge George Washington Logan , who also owned the George W. Logan House at Rutherfordton, bought the inn in 1866 and it became known as the "Logan House". During the Great Depression, the inn and surrounding property was used to promote economic recovery as a Civilian Conservation Corps  headquarters.</p><br>
<p>It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1999.</p><br>
<p>The Mill Creek Zanja, also known as the Sankey, is a historic irrigation canal, or zanja, in Redlands, California. The Serrano people dug the canal in 1819 to provide water from Mill Creek for their farms east of the city. The zanja also provided water for the San Bernardino de Sena Estancia mission outpost, which was built near the canal to access its water. The canal&#39;s water became a highly desirable resource in the area; it fueled a local agricultural boom and was the subject of several legal disputes over water rights in the 1800s. The City of Redlands covered the western half of the zanja in the 1920s.</p><br>
<p>The zanja was designated a California Historical Landmark in 1932 and placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1977. The canal now carries drainage water and storm runoff out of the city; it is the oldest irrigation canal in California which is still in use and the oldest civil engineering project in Southern California. The city, along with several other local groups, is building a trail and greenway alongside the canal.</p><br>
<p>The USA Post Office, located at 201 Brookside Avenue, is the main post office in Redlands, California. Locally prominent architect G. Stanley Wilson designed the post office, which was built from 1932 to 1935. While Wilson&#39;s design was primarily in the Mission Revival style, he also incorporated elements of the related Spanish Colonial Revival and Mediterranean Revival styles. The post office has an asymmetrical plan, distinguishing it from most federal buildings of the 1930s. The front entrance is marked by an arcade supported by piers. An octagonal Moorish dome marks one of the front corners; both the main building and the dome have tile roofs. Wilson used wrought iron to decorate the interior arches and service windows, an element which has not been observed in any other historic California post office.</p><br>
<p>The post office was added to the National Register of Historic Places on January 11, 1985.</p><br>
<p>Ġebel ġol-Baħar is a possible megalithic temple located underwater off the coast of St. Julian&#39;s, Malta. The site was identified in 1999 by retired real estate investor Hubert Zeitlmair, a follower of Zecharia Sitchin, but it was never studied properly and archaeologists are not convinced that the site is actually a temple.</p><br>
<h2>Site</h2><br>
<p>The site is located on an underwater plateau approximately 2 km off the coast of St. Julian&#39;s. The plateau is 900 by 500 metres long, and its highest point seems to be man-made, and is 19 metres below sea level.</p><br>
<p>The site contains large boulders which Zeitlmair believed to be man-made and not natural, and which are covered in vegetation. Zeitlmair describes it as consisting of a cluster of three stone circles with rooms with a diameter of 9 to 11 metres, with parts having a height up to 6 to 10 metres. An avenue goes up to the entrance of the structure, which faces east. Tracks on the seabed resembling cart ruts were also observed on the site.</p><br>
<h2>Discovery</h2><br>
<p>The site was discovered on 13 July 1999 by Shaun Arrigo and his brother Kurt, who were working under the instructions of Hubert Zeitlmair, a retired German real estate investor interested in pseudoarchaeology. The discovery was reported in the local media in October 1999, but after some time interest died down. Further explorations of the site were conducted by Zeitlmair in November 1999 and May 2000.</p><br>
<p>Zeitlmair believes that the temple was built by aliens in around 10,000 BC to 12,000 BC, and was submerged at the end of the Ice Age during the Genesis flood narrative. He states that he has been guided by his "primeval ancestors, namely... the God Pa.tha-i-da.na Asu.ara tSi.dha, and the Goddess Ashtar-tara Queen of Atlantis" who he met on Malta. His judgment does not fit within Malta&#39;s prehistoric chronology, as the earliest known human habitation of the island began in the Għar Dalam phase in around 5000 BC. According to him, the site bears similarities to the temple of Ħaġar Qim on mainland Malta.</p><br>
<p>The site was given the name Ġebel ġol-Baħar, meaning "Stones in the Sea" in the Maltese language. It has also been linked with the island of Atlantis, and Zeitlmair has published a book about this in German.</p><br>
<h2>Analysis</h2><br>
<p>Maltese archaeologists are not convinced that the site is a megalithic temple. Other people who dived there said that the boulders which make up the site are not megalithic, but are modern ones which were dumped illegally.</p><br>
<p>In 2013, marine scientists at the University of Malta discovered that 20,000 years ago, the Maltese islands were indeed much larger, and were connected to Sicily with a land bridge. However, there was no mention of Ġebel ġol-Baħar during the studies.</p><br>
<p>Mark Rose, Online Editorial Director for the Archaeological Institute of America, has written that "Chronology appears to be somewhat confused in Zeitlmairs interpretation. According to the web site, he sees links between the submerged "temple" and both Noahs Flood and the rise in sea level following the end of the Ice Age (the period to which, he told Maltamag, he hopes studies will show the Maltese temples date). Furthermore, the presence of deeper sand deposits on the west side of the "ruins," the side toward Gibraltar, than on the east side is taken as an indication that the flooding of the Mediterranean by Atlantic waters (which really did occur) was involved in the inundation of the "temple." The Mediterranean flooding, however, took place some five million years ago. As to the builders of the temples, Zeitlmair defers to Zechariah Sitchin."</p><br>
<p>The San Bernardino Downtown Station, located at 390 West 5th Street, is the main post office serving San Bernardino, California. The post office was built in 1931 as part of the decade&#39;s federal construction programs; it is one of the few remaining buildings in San Bernardino which predates 1950. Architect Louis A. Simon designed the building, which incorporates a number of architectural styles. The general plan of the building is Beaux-Arts; however, the decorative details are inspired by the Mediterranean Revival and Italianate styles. The front of the building features an arcade with acanthus leaf capitals on the supporting columns and a second-floor porch. A red terra cotta tile roof tops the building.</p><br>
<p>The post office was added to the National Register of Historic Places on January 11, 1985.</p><br>
<p>The Moyse Building, also known as the Gray Building, is a historic building located at 13150 7th Street in Chino, California. Built in 1887, it is the oldest surviving building in the city. The building has served in several capacities for the city and has played a part in several civic firsts. After W. R. Dawson completed the building, he ran Chinos first post office from it. The second floor housed the citys first school, which had five students its first year. When Chino was first connected to telephone service, the Moyse Building was one of the first buildings with a connection. The building also hosted the city&#39;s first communal Thanksgiving celebration, which was led by the Rev. A. B. Orgen. In recent years, the building has housed the Chino Chamber of Commerce.</p><br>
<p>The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places on February 28, 1979.</p><br>
<p>Pigeon Mountain is a summit in Walker County, Georgia. At its highest point, the mountain has an elevation of around 2,330 ft. Most of the mountain is located inside the Crockford-Pigeon Mountain Wildlife Management Area.</p><br>
<h2>Name origin</h2><br>
<p>Pigeon Mountain may have been named because the peak&#39;s outline resembles a pigeon, or because settlers saw a large flock of pigeons there.</p><br>
<h2>Geography</h2><br>
<p>Pigeon Mountain is located to the west of LaFayette in the Cumberland Plateau. The mountain runs in a northwest-southwest direction for about 10 miles, joining with Lookout Mountain on the southwestern end to form a V-shape. Between Pigeon and Lookout Mountains is a valley called the McLemore Cove. Most of Pigeon Mountain is located inside the Crockford-Pigeon Mountain Wildlife Management Area, maintained by the Georgia Department of Natural Resources.</p><br>
<p>Several caves are located on Pigeon Mountain, including Ellisons Cave and Petty Johns Cave. Other features on Pigeon Mountain include Dug Gap, Rape Gap and The Pocket.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Part of the Battle of Davis&#39;s Cross Roads took place at Pigeon Mountain, fought on September 10 and 11 in 1863. During the battle, Union forces under James S. Negley intended to cross Pigeon Mountain to capture LaFayette. However, upon learning about how Confederate soldiers were concentrating at Dug Gap, Negley decided to withdraw his troops back to Davis’ Cross Roads.</p><br>
<p>During the 1920s and 1930s, Pigeon Mountain was home to about 30 families. Those families abandoned the mountain in the 1930s when the water table was lowered. In 1969, the mountain was leased by the Georgia Department of Natural Resources. The area eventually became the Crockford–Pigeon Mountain Wildlife Management Area.</p><br>
<p>Jones Island is an island in the Australian state of South Australia located at the mouth of Baird Bay in the north end of Anxious Bay about 45 km south-southeast of the town of Streaky Bay on the west coast of Eyre Peninsula. The island is notable as a breeding site for Australian sea lions and Australian pelicans. The island has enjoyed protected area status since 1967 and as of 1972, it has been part of the Baird Bay Islands Conservation Park.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>Jones Island is an island located at the northern end of Anxious Bay at the mouth of Baird Bay about 3.8 km south of the town of Baird Bay and about 45 km south-southeast of the town of Streaky Bay on the west coast of Eyre Peninsula in South Australia. The island is about 600 m long with a maximum width of 400 m. The island is reported as having a perimeter consisting of “sharp cliffs” to its south eastern coast which is exposed to the ocean and a “ledge” on its sheltered north western side.</p><br>
<h2>Formation, geology and oceanography</h2><br>
<p>Jones Island was formed about 6000 years ago following the rise of sea levels at the start of the Holocene. Jones Island consists of a calcarenite layer over a granite base. It is reported as being the remnant of a “calcarenite wall that once held back the ocean from the low-lying valley to the north”. Jones Island is the permanently exposed part of a submerged reef system extending from the southern headland of Baird Bay across the south side of the mouth of the bay in a south-southwest direction for a distance of about 12 km.</p><br>
<h2>Flora and fauna</h2><br>
<h3>Flora</h3><br>
<p>A survey carried out during 1983 on Jones Island found that its vegetation consisted of the following five groupings: coast daisy-bush, nitre-bush, Austral stork&#39;s bill, introduced pasture mainly on the north western side of the island and round-leaved pigface.</p><br>
<h3>Fauna</h3><br>
<p>Vertebrate animals are represented by mammals, birds and reptiles. As of 1996, mammals are represented exclusively by the Australian sea lion which uses the island both as a haul out and as a breeding colony. As of 2006, the following bird species have been observed on the island: white-faced heron, sooty oystercatcher, welcome swallow, silver gull, little grassbird, rock parrot, osprey, Australian pelican, black cormorant, black-faced cormorant, willie wagtail, crested tern, common starling, and masked plover. While most of the bird species are reported as using the island as a roost, the Australian pelican also uses it as a breeding colony. As of 2006, only one species of reptile, the bull skink, has been observed.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<h3>European discovery and use</h3><br>
<p>Jones Island is one of the islands off the west coast of Eyre Peninsula where native vegetation was cleared for “grazing by early pastoralists”.</p><br>
<p>The island was named in 1908 after J.W. Jones who was a senior employee of the South Australian Government and whose roles are reported as including Secretary to the Premier and Secretary to the Commissioner of Public Works.</p><br>
<h2>Protected areas status</h2><br>
<p>Jones Island first received protected area status along with the unnamed island in Baird Bay in 1967 as a Fauna Conservation Reserve. Since 1972, it has been part of the Baird Bay Islands Conservation Park. Since 2012, the waters adjoining the shoreline of Jones Island are in a habitat protection zone within the West Coast Bays Marine Park. The island is also located at the south eastern boundary of an area which covers the full extent of Baird Bay and which has been listed since at least 1996 as a "wetland of national importance" in the Directory of Important Wetlands in Australia.</p><br>
<p>The former Norridgewock Female Academy, now home to the Norridgewock Historical Society, is a historic school property on Mercer Road , just west of its junction with Upper Main Street in Norridgewock, Maine. Its Greek Revival building was built in 1837, when the school was founded, and was used by that institution until 1860. The building is regionally distinctive as one of a few surviving Greek Revival school buildings with a Greek temple portico. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1996.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Norridgewock Female Academy is set in the village of Norridgewock, adjacent to the later Eaton School building on the north side of Mercer Road, just west of its junction with Upper Main Street. It is a 1-1/2 story brick structure with a front-facing gable and a modest Greek temple front with four Tuscan columns and fully enclosed wood frame pediment. The tympanum of the pediment is finished in flushboard, and haas two sash windows at its center. Below the portico, the facade is three bays wide, with a simple entry flanked by sash windows. At the rear of this block a single-story wood frame ell extends to the left, joining it to a wood-frame carriage house.</p><br>
<p>The Norridgewock Female Academy was established in 1837, and the main block of this building was constructed that year on land donated by Dr. Amos Townsend. The school operated until 1860; among its notable graduates was Rebecca Sophia Clarke, who later wrote children&#39;s books under the pen name "Sophie May". The property was then used by the Eaton School (founded 1865) prior to the construction in 1866-67 of its Second Empire edifice next door. This building was then adapted by the Eaton School for use as faculty housing, a role it filled until the 1880s, when it was sold into private hands. The building was purchased by the Norridgewock Historical Society in 1994, which now houses its museum in the building.</p><br>
<p>The West Street Historic District is a residential historic district just adjacent to the main village of Bar Harbor, Maine. Extending from Eden Street to Billings Avenue, it encompasses a well-preserved concentration of summer "cottages" built during Bar Harbor&#39;s heyday as a resort for the wealthy in the early 20th century. The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The main village of Bar Harbor is set at the northeastern end of Mount Desert Island on the central coast of Maine. It occupies a nub of land that projects slightly from the surrounding coast, and has coastlines that run east–west and north–south. The central business district is located near the center of this nub, focused on the junction of Mt. Desert Street and Main Street. West Street runs parallel to Mt. Desert Street, providing access to the north portion of the coastline. The district extends along West Street from its western junction with Eden Street (where it abuts the Harbor Lane-Eden Street Historic District) to Billings Avenue in the east. Lining the street on both sides are seventeen historically significant summer houses, all built between 1870 and the 1910s, representative of the period when Bar Harbor grew to its height as an exclusive summer resort community. It is home to one of the best concentrations of these summer houses to survive the island&#39;s 1947 fire, which destroyed a significant number of such properties.</p><br>
<p>The oldest house in the district, "The Kedge", is a relatively modest Second Empire house that was built in 1870 and moved to the West Street area in 1886, when the street was formally laid out. "Petunia Cottage" (1877) was the first building to be built on what became West Street; it is a Queen Anne Victorian that was one of the first houses to be built as a rental property. Following the layout of the road there was a boom in construction, with a significant number of architect-designed properties built lining the waterfront. Stylistically these early houses are all reflective of the Shingle, Queen Anne, or Colonial Revival, which were popular at the time. Three houses were designed by the noted Boston firm Rotch and Tilden, and two were designed by New York architect William A. Potter.</p><br>
<p>In the early 20th century the houses began to increase in scale and elegance. "La Rochelle", built 1903, is a lavish brick building in the style of a French chateau, and was one of the areas showpiece houses. The principal non-residential property, the Bar Harbor Club, is a large Tudor Revival building erected in 1929-30; its early membership included many of societys elites. While some of these summer estates remain in private ownership, a number of them are now owned by Maine Seacoast Mission, a social service agency.</p><br>
<p>The Horace Franklin Rogers House is a historic house at 2900 Rogers Avenue in Fort Smith, Arkansas. It is an architecturally eclectic three-story house, fashioned in 1904 out of distinctive white glazed bricks fashioned in the brickyard of its builder, Horace Franklin Rogers. The front has Classical elements including four posts with Doric and Corinthian elements set on high stone piers supprting the porch, and a front entry that is flanked by large sidelight windows and topped by a stained-glass semi-oval window, and flanked by tall pilasters. Window framing varies stylistically by floor. The interior is richly decorated, and has a large ballroom space on the third floor that was a major social scene in the early 20th century.</p><br>
<p>The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.</p><br>
<p>The Emilie and Stephen Schumacher House is a historic home located in St. Peter, Minnesota, United States. Designed in the Queen Anne style, it was built for a local merchant named Stephen Shumacher and completed in 1887. The home was designed by Henry Gerlach, a Mankato-based architect who designed many residential and commercial buildings in the surrounding area.</p><br>
<p>After being passed on to the Schumachers descendants the home was sold in 1967 (though it remained a private home). During the 1998 Comfrey–St. Peter tornado outbreak the home was badly damaged including the complete loss of the homes turret, roof and porch. In a yearlong restoration project aided by the Minnesota Historical Society the home was meticulously restored. The home was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2000 as an excellent local example of a Queen Anne style home.</p><br>
<p>The Unai Lagua Japanese Defense Pillbox is one of the more unusual surviving World War II-era Japanese fortifications on the island of Saipan in the Northern Mariana Islands. It is located at the southern end of Unai Lagua , which stretches along the northern shore of the island. The pillbox is fashioned out of poured concrete and coral boulders, and uses natural rock formations as part of its walls. This construction was necessitated by a severe shortage of building materials on the island as the Japanese prepared the island&#39;s defenses against the advancing Allied forces in 1943-44. The use of natural materials and terrain had the added benefit of rendering the position nearly invisible to aerial or offshore observation.</p><br>
<p>The pillbox was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985; it is also a contributing element to the "Landing Beaches; Aslito/Isley Field; & Marpi Point, Saipan Island", a National Historic Landmark District encompassing surviving World War II military infrastructure on Saipan.</p><br>
<p>The West Market Square Historic District encompasses one of Bangor, Maines central urban business districts. Located at the junction of Main and Broad Streets, it has been a focal point of Bangors economy and business since the city&#39;s incorporation in 1834. The district includes seven buildings reflective of its appearance in the late 19th and early 20th centuries; it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>When Bangor was incorporated in 1834, the junction of Main and Broad Streets, just west of Kenduskeag Stream, was already known as "Market Square", and was the site of an open-air market. It became known as West Market Square later, to distinguish it from East Market Square, located across Kenduskeag Stream at the junction of Central, Harlow, and Park Streets, which developed later. West Market Square was a central focal point of Bangor&#39;s commercial business activity into the 20th century. The east side of the square is lined by six, built between c. 1834 and 1870, with the seventh building in the historic district, the Merrill Trust Company building at 2 Hammond Street, located just off the square to the northeast. It is a Classical Revival structure, designed by New York architect Frank E. Newman and completed in 1907.</p><br>
<p>The six buildings lining the square were all built before 1870, and are reflective of commercial Victorian architectural styles. Three of the buildings are Second Empire in style, including the individually-listed Wheelwright Block, which anchors the square at the northern end. All of these buildings are brick with stone and wood trim elements, and are four stories in height, except the five-story Wheelwright Block. The oldest building, the E.P. Baldwin Building at 10-12 Broad Street, is the oldest building in the district; it was built sometime before 1843, and is Greek Revival in style.</p><br>
<p>Owey Island is an island of the Atlantic Ocean belonging to County Donegal, Ireland.</p><br>
<h2>Geography</h2><br>
<p>The island is around 300 acres (1.2 square kilometres) in area. It lies off the Donegal coast near Kincasslagh. The island&#39;s highest hill, Moylemore, is at 102 m.</p><br>
<p>The buildings of the island are located on its southern part, being the northern one rocky and exposed to winds.</p><br>
<p>On Owey there is no mains electricity or public water supply.</p><br>
<h2>Demographics</h2><br>
<p>The table reports data taken from Discover the Islands of Ireland (Alex Ritsema, Collins Press, 1999) and the Census of Ireland.</p><br>
<p>Owey Island was full-time inhabited up to the mid 1970s. Later on it only had part-time residents, mainly at summer. Most of them own old cottages inherited by ancestors who used to permanently live in the island.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Plenty of fish in the waters surrounding the island and the land that, fertilized with seaweed, was suitable for growing vegetables, allowed a simple lifestyle to more than 100 people. Turf was used to heat the homes; some of the islanders used it also to heat the equipment to produce single malt and liquors.</p><br>
<p>In the olden days Owey had a post office and a school, which closed in 1971; its remains are still there. It had just one teacher in charge of the primary education of all ages, while for their secondary education children had to be sent to the mainland.</p><br>
<p>The Stone House, also known as the Walker-Stone House, is a historic house at 207 Center Street in Fayetteville, Arkansas. It is a two-story brick building, with a side-gable roof, a two-story porch extending across the front, and an ell attached to the left. The porch has particularly elaborate Victorian styling, with bracketed posts and a jigsawn balustrade on the second level. The house was built in 1845, by Judge David Walker, and is one of a small number of Fayetteville properties to survive the American Civil War . It was owned for many years by the Stone family, and reacquired by a Stone descendant in the late 1960s with an eye toward its restoration.</p><br>
<p>The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1970.</p><br>
<p>Xrobb l-Għaġin Temple  is a ruined megalithic temple in Xrobb l-Għaġin, limits of Marsaxlokk, Malta. After being identified in 1913, the site was excavated between 1914 and 1915. It was believed to have been largely destroyed by coastal erosion later on in the century, but investigations carried out in 2015 revealed that the remains of the temple still survive, along with a previously unrecorded megalithic structure nearby.</p><br>
<h2>Site</h2><br>
<p>Xrobb l-Għaġin Temple had a typical temple plan with two apses and a central niche. It also had a paved court, with its entrance facing the southeast. The temple was built on ground with a steep gradient, and due to this an artificial terrace was built in front of the structure.</p><br>
<p>The earliest remains in the area date back to around 4000 BC, but the temple itself was built between 3600 and 3000 BC, during the Ġgantija phase of Maltese prehistory.</p><br>
<h2>Excavations and recent history</h2><br>
<p>The megalithic site was discovered by Carmelo Rizzo, an architect in the Department of Public Works. Rizzo visited the site together with archaeologist Themistocles Zammit on 10 April 1913. The site was excavated by Zammit and A. V. Laferla between December 1914 and January 1915, revealing the core of a megalithic temple. A second excavation was carried out in May 1915 under the direction of Thomas Ashby, who subsequently produced a brief but detailed report about the site. A clay bowl, some slingstones and a decorated slab which formed part of a niche were retrieved during these excavations and they are now displayed at the National Museum of Archaeology in Valletta. The remains were included on the Antiquities List of 1925.</p><br>
<p>At the time of the 1915 excavations, parts of the temple had been destroyed by coastal erosion and the collapse of the remaining parts of the structure was already imminent. The exact location of the site was lost in subsequent decades, and the ruins were presumed to have been eroded away, being described as a "destroyed site" in 2002.</p><br>
<p>The exact site of the temple was identified once again by Ruben P. Borg and Reuben Grima after they carried out inspections in the area between 2012 and 2015. Some of the megaliths recorded by Ashby in 1915 were rediscovered, and on 7 February 2015 a number of previously unrecorded megaliths were discovered in a gully. These are probably the remains of another megalithic structure, possibly a monumental retaining wall which lined the gully. However, there is also the possibility that the retaining wall might be of a much later date, having been built using megaliths taken from the temple.</p><br>
<p>In 2017, it was announced that the environment and culture ministries were forming an inter-ministerial committee in order to safeguard the remains of the temple.</p><br>
<p>The remains of the temple are accessible to the public, and they fall within the limits of the Xrobb l-Għaġin Nature Park, which is managed by Nature Trust Malta. However, the area is considered extremely dangerous to visit since it is located at the edge of an undercut cliff face.</p><br>

<p>The Colton Carnegie Library is a Carnegie library located at 380 North La Cadena Drive in Colton, California. The library was built in 1908 through a $10,000 grant from the Carnegie Foundation. Architect Franklin P. Burnham designed the Neoclassical building, the only example of the style in Colton. The building features an entrance portico supported by Ionic columns, a frieze and ornamented pediment above the entrance, and pilasters at the corners. In addition to housing the city&#39;s collection of over 1,000 books, the library hosted community meetings and social groups and even served as a church. The library moved to a larger building in 1982, and the building now houses the Colton Area Museum.</p><br>
<p>The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places on June 3, 1988.</p><br>
<p>Mount Goodall is a mountain in east-central British Columbia, Canada, located near the headwaters of the Clearwater River. Situated in the Cariboo Mountains of the Columbia Mountains, it is the second highest mountain in Wells Gray Provincial Park with an elevation of 2,930 m. Mount Goodall has eleven distinct summits and extends nearly 8 km in a northwest to southeast direction.</p><br>
<p>The first ascent of Mount Goodall was on August 21, 2006 by Roger Wallis, Don Chiasson, and Jim Lundy from the Alpine Club of Canada. They established its height, only 16 m lower than Wells Gray Parks highest mountain which is unnamed. As of 2015, only four of Goodalls summits have been climbed.</p><br>
<p>Mount Goodall was named in 1966 in honor of Canadian Army Trooper Walter Henry Goodall, K 76212, from Macalister (near Quesnel, British Columbia). He was serving with the Governor General&#39;s Horse Guards, RCAC, when he was killed in action on January 4, 1945, age 24. Five other neighbouring peaks were named at the same time for Canadian soldiers from the Quesnel area who were killed during World War II: Mount Pierrway, Mount Winder, Mount Beaman, Mount Hogg, and Mount Aves.</p><br>
<p>Nomal  is a small valley located at a distance of 25 km north of Gilgit city in the Gilgit District, in northern Pakistan. The valley is also connected with Nalter Bala and Nalter Pain through a metaled road.</p><br>

<p>The Anders and Johanna Olsson Farm is a historic farmstead at 354 West Road in New Sweden, Maine, United States. It includes surviving elements of both a log house and log barn built in the late 19th century by Anders Olsson, a Swedish immigrant. The barn is the only known surviving barn in Maine to have been built during the wave of Swedish immigration in the later decades of the 19th century. The property was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1996.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Olsson Farm is a 60 acre property located on the west side of West Road, a rural north-south road on the west side of New Sweden in northern Aroostook County, Maine. The farmstead consists of a connected series of structures, beginning with a 1-1/2 story wood frame structure that has a front-facing gable roof. A single-story hip-roofed porch extends across the east-facing front and wraps around to the south side, and there are a pair of sash windows in the gable end. A shed-roof addition extends across the north of this main block, with a shed-roof dormer in the main roof above. Behind this main block is attached a 1-1/2 log structure with a gable roof at a lower height but with the ridge in the same east-west orientation. A frame porch is attached to its south side, and there is a gabled dormer in the south-facing roof. The interior of this space has exposed log walls. A modern log breezeway joins this section to the log barn, forming the entire complex into an L shape. The barn has a log section that is 32 x, with a total length of 57 ft due to a later frame extension. The barn has a gambrel roof, a c. 1915 replacement of the original gable roof.</p><br>
<p>In order to counteract the decline in its rural population due to westward migration, in 1861 the state of Maine embarked on an initiative to promote immigration to the rural northern part of the state. This led to an influx of primarily Swedish settlers, the first group arriving in 1870. Anders Olsson arrived in 1871, his wife Johanna the following year. Olsson is believed to have built the log portion of the house at a different location soon after his arrival, and the log portion of the barn in 1873; the existence and dimensions of both buildings are documented in an 1874 article. In 1889, possibly because of his growing family, Olsson built the frame portion of the house, moved the old log house to its position at the new structures rear. Olssons buildings demonstrate a high quality of log construction that differs notably from the cruder methods of log construction found in other parts of Maine, with particular attention given to ensuring the weather tightness of the structure. The barn is the only one known to survive from the early period of Swedish immigration to the area.</p><br>
<p>The Samuel Kidder Whiting House is a historic house at 214 Main Street  in Ellsworth, Maine. Built in 1871, it is one of the finest examples of the Second Empire architecture in Hancock County. Its design is attributed to George W. Orff, an architect working out of Bangor. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983; it now houses a financial services office.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Whiting House is prominently sited at the northwest corner of the junction of Main and High Streets, on the fringe of Ellsworths central business district. This intersection is where United States Route 1 turns from Main Street (west of the junction) southward onto High Street, and Route 1A continues north onto Oak Street. The building is separate from the junction by Whiting Park, a small public park created early in this century on land formerly owned by Whiting. The house is a three-story wood frame structure, with two full stories and a third under the mansard roof. It is roughly square in shape, with a slightly-projecting central pavilion in the front (south-facing) facade that is topped by a mansarded observatory. The entrance is sheltered by a flat-roof portico supported by clusters of columns, with low balustrades to the sides. The buildings corners are decorated with paneled pilasters, and there is a projecting single-story bay to the east. All of the roof lines have modillioned eaves, and windows have decorative shallow hoods, except the first floor front windows, which have a gabled pediment above. A 1-1/2 story ell projects to the rear of the building. The interior of the main block retains original decorative elements, including lavish woodwork and decorative hardware.</p><br>
<p>The house was commissioned by Samuel Kidder Whiting, a local dry goods merchant, in 1871, when he was just 18 years old, and it was his home until his death in 1917. Its design has been attributed to Bangor architect George W. Orff; he was the only architect working in the area at the time, and the house bears some resemblance other examples of Orff&#39;s work in Bangor. It is the largest known work of his outside Bangor. The building now houses a financial services firm.</p><br>
<p>Safilguda lake, also known as Nadimi cheruvu and Mini tankbund, is a lake located in Old Neredmet, Secunderabad. There is a park adjacent to the lake called Safilguda lake park. This lake has a small island called Nadimi bird island, it is covered with thick trees, which attracts variety of wildlife, especially migratory birds.</p><br>
<p>Katta Misamma Temple is located on the Shoreline of the lake.</p><br>
<p>The road around the lake is similar to the Necklace road around the "tank bund" on the Hussain Sagar Lake and hence the lake is also called as "mini tankbund". The park is a popular attraction for jogging and evening walks.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>HUDA restored the lake in 2000 under the Conservation and Restoration Project of Green Hyderabad Environment Programme. It became a popular recreation area for the residents of nearby colonies. Several years later, lake became polluted due to lack of maintenance and negligence of HMDA and GHMC.</p><br>
<p>Vourgareli  is a Greek village in Arta prefecture. It is located in the north-east of Arta prefecture, built at a height of 900 meters in the slope of Tzoumerka Mountains. The village is the seat of Central Tzoumerka municipality and Athamania municipal unit. Its population is 301 inhabitants according to 2011 census.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Vourgareli is initially referred in a Venetian document of 1696. The derivation of this name is unknown. It is believed that it derives from local lumberjack named Vourgarelis or from Bulgarian lumberjacks that were settled in this area in the past.</p><br>
<p>In the late of 18th century the Souliote chieftain Giorgos Botsaris and other 170 Souliote families were settled in Vourgareli. After the fall of Souli to Ali Pasha in 1803 many Souliotes fled to Seltsou Monastery and fought with the Turks. Most were captured and only few managed to escape.</p><br>
<p>The last years of Ottoman rule the area of the village was a fief of a Turk, named Abram Karakehaya. After the annexation of Arta to Greece in 1881, the residents of Vourgareli bought the fief, paying 4.416 Ottoman liras. A local rich landholder, named Karapanos, helped to gather the money, in exchange for the exploitation of this area for 40 years.</p><br>
<p>During the Greek Resistance, the headquarters of the Greek guerrilla group EDES was established in Vourgareli. The Germans bombed the village on 5 May 1943.</p><br>

Portions of them are part of the Asan Beach Unit of the War in the Pacific National Historical Park, which includes a public access point at Asan Point. Just east of this is Memorial Beach Park, a municipal beachfront park that was listed on the National Register in 1974.</p><br>
<p>The Archibald-Adams House is a historic house at 122 Main Street  in Cherryfield, Maine, United States. Built about 1795, it is one of the town&#39;s oldest surviving buildings, with associations to two prominent local families. It is now the Englishmans Bed and Breakfast, and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Archibald-Adams House is set on the west side of Main Street (between it and the Narraguagus River) a short way north of the village center of Cherryfield. It is a two-story wood frame structure, with a hip roof, clapboard siding, and a granite foundation. A pair of brick chimneys rise from the interior of the house. The house has prominent facades facing both east, toward the road, and south, toward the village. Both of these facades are five bays wide, with a center entrance that has a distinctive surround. The south facade entry has flanking sidelight windows and pilasters, and is topped by a transom window and entablature, all in the Greek Revival style. The eastern entry has a simpler treatment, with no windows and an entablature with gabled pediment. The interior has retained much of its original late 19th-century woodwork and hardware.</p><br>
<p>The house was built about 1795, probably by Thomas Archibald, who held a number of local civic offices between about 1790 and 1810. Archibald&#39;s daughter Elizabeth married Joseph Adams, who remarried into the locally prominent Campbell family after her untimely death in 1811. Adams was also prominent in civic affairs, serving as a justice of the peace, town selectman, and as a trustee of the Cherryfield Academy. The house remained in the Adams family for several generations.</p><br>
<p>The John Tilley House is a historic house in rural Washington County, Arkansas. It is located on the south side of Stonewall Road , west of Prairie Grove, and is one of the county&#39;s few rural antebellum brick houses. In fact, it is one of only 24 antebellum houses in Arkansas deemed sufficiently "original" for inclusion on the National Register.</p><br>
<p>It is a two-story structure, five bays wide, with two rooms on each floor, separated by a central hallway on each level. A two-story, Victorian Era (1896)porch extends across the front of the house. There is also a considerable Victorian Era addition in the back (1896), which gives the house its present "T" footprint. The house was built by John Tilley, Jr. about 1853, replacing his first house, which was a log structure (1836), and first appeared on the Washington County tax rolls in 1855. Tilley was one of the area&#39;s most successful farmers prior to the American Civil War, but fled the area to Texas when it was occupied by the Union Army and died before he could return.</p><br>
<p>The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.</p><br>
<p>The Bates School is a historic former school building at 1074 Bates School Road in Bates, Arkansas. It is a two-story brick building with a hip roof and Colonial Revival styling.
