Tanao Road

Tanao Road in phase near Khao San Road

Tanao Road (Thai: ถนนตะนาว, RTGS: Thanon Tanao, pronounced [tʰā.nǒn tā.nāːw]) is a road in Phra Nakhon District, Bangkok, starting from Bamrung Mueang Road at Si Kak Sao Chingcha straight to the north, it is also a boundary line between the San Chao Pho Suea and Sao Chingcha Subdistricts, then spans the Khlong Lot into the area of Bowon Niwet Subdistrict, then cut across Ratchadamnoen Avenue at Khok Wua Intersection, this phase it is a dividing line between the Bowon Niwet and Talat Yot Subdistricts, as far as bend to the intersection at Bowon Niwet, Sip Sam Hang, and Tani Roads converge in Bang Lamphu area near Khao San Road.

Originally, Tanao Road is part of Fueang Nakhon Road, which King Chulalongkorn (Rama VI) to be built in the year 1863–64. There is a presumption that the name of Tanao Road will be based on the Tenasserim people (Tenasserim in Thai is known as "Tanao" or "Tanao Si") that the king ordered to settle at this road, so-called Ban Tanao Si, Tanao Si or Tanao Roads etc. But some people assume that comes from this road cutting through the aromatic herb shop area, which this herb is called "Tanao" (a kind of sachet).

Although it is a short road, but Tanao Road runs through many important places viz Sam Phraeng neighbourhood, San Chao Pho Suea, Wat Mahannapharam, 14 October 73 Memorial and Bangkok City Library.

Running of the Interns

Runners carrying the Supreme Court's Obergefell v. Hodges decision on marriage equality (2015)

The Running of the Interns was a Washington, DC, tradition, sometimes called a race,interns of news outlets running to deliver results of major decisions by the Supreme Court of the United States to the press.BuzzFeed, Newsweek, NPR, and Cosmopolitan.

In recent years, the Supreme Court has released PDF opinions on supremecourt.gov around the same time as the majority opinion is announced from the bench. For instance, in the SCOTUSblog live coverage of opinion announcements of 10:00 a.m. ET on June 26, 2018, news that Justice Thomas was announcing the decision in National Institute of Family and Life Advocates v. Becerra was posted at 10:01, followed by a link to the official PDF at 10:02,Obergefell v. Hodges in 2015, those times were 10:01 (announcement) and 10:05 (PDF),

History

Since 1946, recording devices have been banned inside the courtroom of the United States Supreme Court Building.

The Supreme Court's decision is printed and delivered to a clerk's office, where it is handed to members of the press. Interns are not credentialed and must therefore wait in the hallway outside the press room.1⁄8–1⁄4 mile (200–400 m), from the courtroom to broadcasters awaiting outside.

The interns often run wearing sneakers and business casual suits or skirts in 90 °F (32 °C) heat.

In 2015, the interns were briefly removed after a CNN intern was caught by Supreme Court Police recording video footage with a GoPro camera.

In 2016, interns relayed 13 decisions over three mornings.

Sant Pere de la Portella

Sant Pere de la Portella

Sant Pere de la Portella is a Benedictine monastery in the town of La Quar, in the comarca of Berguedà, Catalonia, Spain. The 11th-century building was built in Romanesque style. In 2010, it was declared a Bien de Interés Cultural landmark.

Architecture and furnishings

The main element of the monastery is its church, which consists of a wide nave roofed with a barrel vault and terminated by a slightly narrower apse. The apse is also covered by a semicircular vault, and is decorated. There are blind arcades in groups of four between semicircular columns reinforced by brackets.

The building's principal entrance is located on the west façade, and is constructed as a door with two arches. On the south wall, another door leads to the adjacent cloister. Attached to the north elevation is the bell tower, of a square plan, with a single, large arched opening on each of its sides. The cloister, situated to the south, had two floors, both containing typical porched walkways framed by arches. There are monastic rooms designed in the typical style of the Benedictine monasteries, containing a refectory, kitchen, bedroom, and dressing room; though half of this is in ruins.

North Carolina Highway 281

North Carolina Highway 281 (NC 281) is a primary state highway in the U.S. state of North Carolina. The highway runs north–south, connecting communities in western Jackson County and scenic areas of southwest Transylvania County. It is the only North Carolina state highway that changes numbers when crossing into South Carolina.

Route description

NC 281 is a 36.6-mile (58.9 km) two-lane mountain highway that begins at the South Carolina state line in Jackson County, before quickly entering Transylvania County. In South Carolina, the road continues south as SC 130. It runs concurrent with US 64 near Sapphire, then goes 2.5 miles (4.0 km) east where it splits and continues north to Lake Toxaway. Continuing northwest, the highway becomes aggressively curvy, steep, narrow and in a couple of locations is a gravel road. NC 281 crosses back into Jackson County at Owens Gap (3,590 ft (1,090 m), highest point on route), near Round Mountain to the northeast. The road widens again near the Tuckasegee River and passes by several lakes before ending in Tuckasegee.

The overall route shows the very best of what the Nantahala National Forest has to offer, but it is not recommended for commercial trucks, recreational vehicles or buses. In the winter, the highway can be considerably dangerous in snow and ice, and should not be attempted without proper equipment.

Scenic byways

Whitewater Way is a 9-mile (14 km) byway from near Sapphire to the South Carolina state line. It is named after the Whitewater Falls, which, at 411 ft (125 m), are the highest waterfalls east of the Rockies.Horsepasture River and multiple trails connect the area with rare shortia found in the area. The byway is not recommended for recreational vehicles or buses.

History


North Carolina Highway 281

History

In January 1985, NC 281 was rerouted along Slick Fisher Road (SR 1306), north of Lake Toxaway; however in April of same year, NC 281 was reverted along its original routing.SC 130 was extended north from SC 11, near Salem, as a new primary routing to meetup with NC 281 at the state line; becoming the only non-continuous route number between the two states.

North Carolina Highway 35

North Carolina Highway 35 (NC 35) is a primary state highway in the U.S. state of North Carolina.

Route description

Starting from its southern terminus at NC 305/NC 561 near Tri-County Airport in Mintons Store of western Hertford County, the route immediately enters Northampton County as it progresses northward. In the town of Woodland, NC 35 joins US 258 as Woodland's main street, before turning north again only a couple city blocks later. The road continues north through the towns of Conway and Severn before it turns into Virginia State Route 35 at the Virginia state line. Much of the route runs mostly parallel to the North Carolina and Virginia Railroad and crosses it several times.

History

Originally, NC 35 was created around 1930 as the route that present-day NC 45 follows from US 13 to US 17. However, Virginia renumbered its routes in 1940, and North Carolina followed suit to remain consistent.

Metacomet Country Club

Metacomet Country Club was a private golf club in East Providence, Rhode Island in the United States. It was incorporated in 1901 by five Rhode Island businessmen. The playing grounds were, at that time, in the Rumford section of East Providence.

The club's name derived from the fashion at the turn of the 20th century for golf clubs organizing in New England to select Native American names. Metacomet was a great Indian Chief of the Wampanoag tribe, a friend of the Pilgrim settlers of the 17th century who was later named King Philip by the English after he succeeded his father as leader of the tribe.

The course was originally designed by Leonard Byles, but in 1924 Donald Ross was hired to re-design the golf course into the layout which now exists. The new layout was opened on August 7, 1926. Known as a challenging course with lots of character, it is widely considered to have putting greens among the best in New England.

On September 30, 2020, Golf Digest reported that the club, recently purchased by Marshall Properties, was closing, as Marshall had failed to obtain a necessary zoning change needed to keep the club operating.

Sampler album

A sampler or promotional compilation is a type of compilation album generally offered at a reduced price to showcase an artist or a selection of artists signed to a particular record label. The format became popular in the late 1960s as record labels sought to promote artists whose works were primarily available in album rather than single format, and therefore had little opportunity to gain exposure through singles-dominated radio airplay. Most samplers showcased already-released material, so that as they sampled artists they also sampled the albums from which their tracks were drawn. The term 'album sampler' is also used in cases where an album is distributed among multiple records in case of, for example, vinyl where the maximum play time is less than the length of the full album. In these cases, album sampler titles may be added to each vinyl.

Elektra Records

The first record sampler was A Folk Music Sampler released by Elektra Records in the US in 1954, initially for radio stations and later reissued for retail sales. Jac Holzman of Elektra wrote:

"I was...searching for a way to take our specialized and distinctive catalog and have it heard by many people. As a fanatical moviegoer, I knew the value of the film trailer. I translated that to the record business. My concept...was a sampler LP: a collection of musical trailers, a compendium of carefully assembled material, with lyrics and notes, all on a 10-inch LP that would sell for a bargain price unheard of in 1954: $2.00...I inserted a "sampler clause" in all new artists' contracts, allowing me to use one track from any album, royalty-free...With no royalty obligation and only the raw cost of manufacturing to consider, a good sampler could net between ten and twenty thousand dollars. This was the best of all possible worlds. We were actively promoting our records, the public was paying for the privilege and getting good value in return, and Elektra was being fertilized by the profits."


Sampler album

At the time the term "sampler" was mainly used for a demonstration of needlework, and this was the first time the word had been applied to a musical compilation. Holzman was enthusiastic for the format, and Elektra regularly issued budget-priced samplers of its folk catalogue in the USA throughout the 1950s and 60s. In the UK, Elektra's office decided to use issue samplers to try to position the label in the marketplace, and issued the folk sampler Fantastic Folk (1968) before the more rock-oriented Select Elektra (1968).

Budget samplers in Europe

CBS’s The Rock Machine Turns You On, Liberty Records' Gutbucket, Warner Bros.' The 1969 Warner/Reprise Songbook (first of the long-standing Warner/Reprise Loss Leaders series), and Island Records' You Can All Join In were the first samplers issued in the UK and Europe at a discount price, setting the standard for those to follow. Many of the most important and innovative folk and rock artists of the time featured on the samplers of their respective record labels, particularly in the UK, and as a result their work reached an audience which would have otherwise been inaccessible. Amongst the most well regarded, and subsequently collectable, were those from Island Records, CBS, Decca Records, Liberty Records, Vertigo Records and Harvest Records. By the end of the 1970s, however, the format became less relevant.

The rise of indie rock labels (e.g. Chiswick Records and Stiff Records in the UK) and bands in the late 1970s and early 1980s revitalised the sampler as a marketing tool, but the format was all but dead by 1985.

Salvia melissodora

Salvia melissodora (Grape-scented sage) is a woody perennial shrub native to elevations from 4,000 to 8,000 feet in the Sierra Madre Oriental mountain range in Mexico found by Diana Arias, from Chihuahua in the north to Oaxaca in the south. The plant is also called tarahumara, after the Tarahumara who have used the leaves and seeds for medicinal purposes for several hundred years.

The specific epithet "melissodora" comes from the Greek "melissa" (honeybee) and "odora" (fragrance)—the fragrant and nectar-filled flowers attract many insects. Melissa is also the name of a Cretan nymph in Greek mythology who collected honey.

Description

Salvia melissodora is a woody shrub that grows up to 6 feet high and 4 feet wide, with a graceful and upright habit. The 1.0-1.5 inch ovate leaves are mid-green on the upper side, with prominent veins on the lower surface that stand out due to the chamois-colored hairs that cover them. The partially dry leaves give off a pleasant fragrance, while the flowers are frequently described as grape-scented.

The short inflorescences have several whorls each, with flowers that are violet-lavender on the upper lip and pale lavender on the lower lip and back of the upper lip. The flowers are full of nectar, and attract bees, butterflies, insects, and hummingbirds from late spring until frost.

Sample—Lindblaum House

The Sample—Lindblaum House, also spelled Sample—Lindblom House and alternatively known as the Odile Babb House, is a historic house in Wakonda, South Dakota. It is the only Lustron home in Wakonda. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1998.

History

As World War II soldiers returned home following the war, the United States faced a nationwide housing shortage for the veterans and their families. Housing companies such as Lustron formed to mass-produce modular, affordable homes that could be quickly constructed. The Lustron Corporation, although short-lived (operating only from 1946 to 1950), built about 2,500 homes across the United States, including several in South Dakota. The Sample—Lindblaum House was built in 1948 by Glen and May Sample. Wakonda is a rural community, and this home was built on the outskirts of town; it is situated down a private driveway and is surrounded by alfalfa fields. In 1965, the house was sold to Erick Lindblaum; and in 1983, Odile Babb bought it. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on December 2, 1998, as a well-preserved example of a surviving Lustron house in South Dakota.

Architecture


Sample—Lindblaum House

Architecture

The Sample—Lindblaum House is specifically a Westchester Deluxe model. As with all Luston homes, its walls are made of 2 by 2 feet (0.61 by 0.61 m) enameled steel and prefabricated porcelain panels. Its interior and exterior walls are gray (with the exception of the kitchen and bathroom, which are yellow), and the simple gabled roof is blue-green. It has asphalt tile floors on a concrete slab foundation and measures 31 by 39 feet (9.4 by 11.9 m). The main entrance sits on one of the house's short sides, under a metal canopy. The side gable of the roof is made of enameled porcelain, visually separating it from the rest of the wall. The signature Lustron spiral trellis sits on the building's exterior. The original windows were set in enameled porcelain and were mostly large picture windows with side casements, with some smaller double-hung sash windows interspersed. The living room featured a large bay window. However, all of the house's windows were replaced in 1997, although they preserved the original style. A noncontributing two-car garage is also on the property.

Inside, it has a kitchen, bathroom, living room, dining room, and three bedrooms on a single story. Lustron homes came pre-fitted with built-in storage cabinets and most appliances (except for a refrigerator and stove). Notable built-in features included bedroom closets, the kitchen and living room cabinets, a china cabinet between the dining room and kitchen, vanity and storage cabinets in the master bedroom, and a combination dishwasher and clothes washer in the kitchen. The interior doors are sliding pocket doors, also made from enameled steel; the front and back entrance doors are the only ones in the home that swivel. At the time of its NRHP listing, the asphalt tile floors had been covered with carpet, and only the dishwasher/clothes washer and the bathroom sink had been replaced. Lustron homes were fitted with paneled radiant heating systems; this house's heating system has been replaced, but it still uses the original heating system.

Regionalized variable theory

Regionalized variable theory (RVT) is a geostatistical method used for interpolation in space.

The concept of the theory is that interpolation from points in space should not be based on a smooth continuous object. It should be, however, based on a stochastic model that takes into consideration the various trends in the original set of points. The theory considers that within any dataset, three types of relationships can be detected:

 1. Structural part, which is also called the trend.
 2. Correlated variation.
 3. Uncorrelated variation, or noise.

After defining the above three relationships, RVT then applies the first law of geography, in order to predict the unknown values of points. The major application of this theory is the Kriging method for interpolation.

Salvia lyrata

Salvia lyrata (lyre-leaf sage, lyreleaf sage, wild sage, cancerweed), is a herbaceous perennial in the family Lamiaceae that is native to the United States, from Connecticut west to Missouri, and in the south from Florida west to Texas.Carl Linnaeus in 1753.

Description

Salvia lyrata forms a basal rosette of leaves that are up to 8 inches (20 cm) long, broadening toward the tip. The leaves have irregular margins and are typically pinnately lobed or cut, looking somewhat like a lyre. The center vein is sometimes dark wine-purple. A square-shaped hairy stem up to 2 feet (0.61 m) long grows from the rosette, with uneven whorls of two-lipped lavender to blue flowers. Flowering is heaviest between April and June, though sparse flowering can happen throughout the year. The leaves were once thought to be an external cure for cancer, thus one of the common names "Cancerweed".Salvia lyrata grows in full sun or light to medium shade, with native stands found on roadsides, fields, and open woodlands.

Cultivation and uses

Salvia lyrata is sometimes grown in gardens for its attractive foliage and flowers, though it can prolifically seed, easily spreading into lawns. Its ability to thrive despite being mowed and walked on, however, mean it can be used as a turf grass alternative that is attractive to bees.cultivars have been developed with purple leaves. 'Burgundy Bliss' and 'Purple Knockout' are two cultivars with burgundy leaves that are deeper in color than the species.

Whitefriars Shopping Centre

Whitefriars Shopping Centre is a shopping centre in Canterbury, Kent.

History

The Whitefriars Shopping Quarter is situated on the site of a former multi-storey car park and the Ricemans department store. Following the demolition of these buildings a new multi storey carpark and a Fenwick department store were constructed.

A "Big Dig" archaeological excavation was carried out on the site by Canterbury Archaeological Trust in conjunction with Channel 4's television programme Time Team from 2000–2003, unearthing mostly Roman and Mediaeval finds.

The Marlowe Arcade is built on the site of a theatre that opened shortly before World War I. It was converted to the Central Picture Cinema in the 1920s and reopened as the first Marlowe Theatre in 1949, originally for amateur dramatics and then repertory. After financial difficulties in 1981, it was demolished in 1982.

Whitefriars

Whitefriars Street, one of streets around which the shops are structured.

The Whitefriars shopping centre is made up of shops mainly spread over two floors, but with some shops over three floors. The multi-storey car park is in the same block as Tesco, with two bridges between the carpark, Primark and Marks and Spencer. The layout of the centre consists mainly of squares, namely Rose Square, Clocktower Square and Whitefriars Square, small streets and arcade. An older part of the centre is part of the high street. The three floors are connected by two main lifts, in the stair room and Fenwicks. There are public toilets and facilities in Fenwick, Eat, Cafe Nero, Costa and Marks and Spencer.

Whitefriars Shopping Centre is adjacent to Canterbury Bus Station.

The Marlowe arcade is the only part of the centre with a full roof, and contains more specialised shops. In late 2012, it was announced that the arcade would be renamed 'Whitefriars Arcade', a move which has received criticism from some locals.
