Lac Eloika

Le lac Eloika est situé dans la partie orientale de l'État de Washington, à une quinzaine de kilomètres au nord de la ville de Spokane. Son premier nom fut celui de « lac de Nef », donné par le père jésuite belge Pierre-Jean De Smet en honneur du mécène belge Pierre de Nef. Le site prit aussi le nom d'une famille de la région et s'est appelé au début du XXe siècle Blake's Lake, avant de revenir à une appellation amérindienne. Il est particulièrement réputé pour ses eaux poissonneuses et ses rives sont peuplées d'élans. Notes et références Portail des lacs et cours d'eau Portail de l’État de Washington
Cape Disappointment Light

The Cape Disappointment Light is a lighthouse on Cape Disappointment near the mouth of the Columbia River in the U.S. state of Washington. History In 1848, it was recommended a lighthouse be located at Cape Disappointment in what was then the Oregon Territory. An appropriation of $53,000 was made in 1852. After the lighthouse was designed, a first-order Fresnel lens was ordered. When the lens arrived it was found to be too large for the tower. Rebuilding the tower took an additional two years. The first lighthouse in the Pacific Northwest was finally lit on October 15, 1856. In addition to the light, the station was equipped with a 1,600-pound (730 kg) bell powered by a striking mechanism. The keeper's residence was about a quarter-mile away. The lighthouse had several shortcomings. The fog bell was sometimes inaudible due to the roar of ocean waves. It was discontinued in 1881 and moved to West Point Light in Seattle, and eventually to Warrior Rock Light near Portland. Also, the light was not visible to ships approaching from the north. This problem was corrected by building a lighthouse at North Head, two miles from Cape Disappointment. The first-order lens was moved to North Head and a fourth-order lens installed at Cape Disappointment. The lighthouse was electrified in 1937. In 1956, the Coast Guard intended to close the station, but retained the light when the Columbia River Bar Pilots protested. The light was automated in 1973. An observation deck has been built for the Coast Guard to monitor traffic and bar conditions. The grounds are open to the public through Cape Disappointment State Park.

Phare du cap Disappointment

Le phare du cap Disappointment (anglais : Cape Disappointment Light) est un phare situé au cap Disappointment à l'embouchure du fleuve Columbia sur la côte de l'État de Washington, dans le Comté de Pacific aux États-Unis. Il fait partie du parc d'État du cap Disappointment. Ce phare est géré par la Garde côtière américaine, et les phares de l'État de Washington sont entretenues par le District 13 de la Garde côtière basé à Seattle. Histoire C'est le premier phare maritime dans la région Nord-Ouest Pacifique mis en service le 15 octobre 1856. En 1848, un phare a été recommandé d'être érigé sur le cap Disappointment dans ce qui était alors le territoire de l'Oregon. En 1852, un crédit de 53 000 dollars a été accordé. Après la conception du phare, une lentille de Fresnel du premier ordre a été commandée. Lorsque la lentille est arrivée, elle était trop grande pour la tour. La reconstruction de la tour a pris deux années supplémentaires. La station fut aussi équipée d'une cloche de brume. La résidence du gardien a été construit à proximité. Le phare présentait plusieurs lacunes. La cloche de brume était parfois inaudible en raison du rugissement des vagues de l'océan. Elle a été désactivée en 1881 et déplacée au phare de West Point à Seattle, et finalement au phare de Warrior Rock près de Portland. De plus, la lumière n'était pas visible pour les navires venant du nord. Ce problème a été corrigé par la construction du phare de North Head, près du cap Disappointment. La lentille de premier ordre a été déplacée à North Head et remplacée par une lentille de quatrième ordre. Le phare a été électrifié en 1937. En 1956, la Garde côtière a eu l'intention de fermer la station, mais a conservé la lumière lorsque les pilotes de la station du fleuve Columbia ont protesté. La lumière a été automatisée en 1973. Une plate-forme d'observation a été construite pour permettre à la Garde côtière de surveiller l'état de la circulation maritime littorale. Le phare émet, à une hauteur focale (d) de 67 m, un feu alternativement blanc et rouge sur une période de 30 secondes. Sa portée est de 22 milles nautiques pour le feu blanc (environ 40 km) et 18 milles nautiques pour le feu rouge (environ 33 km).

Маяк Кейп-Дисаппойнтмент

Маяк Кейп-Дисаппойнтмент (англ. Cape Disappointment Light) — маяк, расположенный на мысе Кейп-Дисаппойнтмент в устье реки Колумбия, округ Пасифик, штат Вашингтон, США. Построен в 1856 году. Автоматизирован в 1973 году. Старейший маяк штата. История Река Колумбия — важнейшая водная артерия Северо-Запада США, потому маяк в её устье был построен раньше других маяков штата Вашингтон и был одним из первых восьми маяков на всём Западном побережье. 30 апреля 1882 года был заключён контракт стоимостью 31 000$ на его сооружение. Впоследствии сумма была увеличена еще на 7 500$. Строительство было завершено в 1856 году, и 15 октября того же года он был введён в эксплуатацию. Маяк представлял собой коническую кирпичную башню высотой 16 метров, на вершине которого была установлена линза Френеля первого поколения. Из-за особенностей рельефа дом смотрителя был построен на значительном расстоянии. Маяк также был снабжен противотуманным колоколом. В 1871 для смотрителя и двух его помощников был построен новый дуплекс, с одиннадцатью комнатами на каждой стороне. В 1898 на маяке заменили линзу первого поколения на линзу четвёртого поколения. Маяк был электрифицирован в 1837 году. Береговая охрана США планировала закрыть маяк в 1965 году, однако из-за протестов местных лоцманов его оставили в эксплуатации. В 1973 году маяк бы автоматизирован. Примечания
Drumheller Fountain

Drumheller Fountain is an outdoor fountain on the University of Washington campus in Seattle, Washington, in the United States. The fountain was given its name in 1961 to honor the University Regent Joseph Drumheller, who gifted the central fountain machinery to the University for its centennial celebration. Since the early 1900s, the fountain has been nicknamed "Frosh Pond" due to its association with pranks, particularly those targeting innocent freshmen. The tradition originated in 1909 when a group of sophomores dunked freshmen in the water of the fountain, leading to an initiation ritual each fall. Over the years, not only freshmen, but also ROTC recruits, sailors, divers, and people engaging in (unauthorized) winter swimming have found themselves in the pond. Additionally, non-human items ranging from rainbow trouts to a Domino's delivery truck have also made appearances in the fountain. The fountain is utilized by mallards to raise ducklings, and every spring, the university would install a duck ramp to help ducklings enter and leave the raised edges of the fountain. Installed typically in April or May and maintained for approximately a month, the ramp allows sufficient time for the young ducklings to develop their flying skills and venture out of the pond. The duck ramp comes after the university's unsuccessful attempts to remove the ducklings and the repeated arrival of additional ducks. On February 6, 2019, a University of Washington student suffered a head injury after falling near the fountain after a campus snowstorm and later died of a blood clot in her lung. Although the cause of the student's death was later determined to be unrelated to the fall, the incident sparked backlash on social media directed at the university's president, Ana Mari Cauce, regarding the condition of the campus sidewalks during inclement weather. Geyser Basin Drumheller Fountain is predated by a pond similar in design and location known as Geyser Basin, which was built for the 1909 Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition. During the fair, the fountain was the centerpiece of a formal garden extending onto the Rainier Vista, adorned with a geometric layout, roses enclosed by Japanese barberry, and a carpet of 80,000 English daisies. While the design and location are similar, Geyser Basin was a distinct structure from the current-day Drumheller Fountain. The modern Drumheller Fountain simply consists of a stone bowl, whereas Geyser Basin was a much larger structure that featured cascading water emptying into the pond.

Universiteit van Washington

De Universiteit van Washington is een openbare universiteit in Seattle, Washington, Verenigde Staten. De universiteit is opgericht in 1861. Het is de grootste universiteit van de Noordwestelijke Verenigde Staten, en de oudste openbare universiteit aan de westkust. Locaties De universiteit kent drie locaties. De hoofdlocatie is in Seattle's University District. De andere twee zijn in Tacoma en Bothell. Geschiedenis De stad Seattle was een van de eerste nederzettingen die werd gebouwd in de staat Washington tussen het midden en einde van de 19e eeuw. Gouverneur Isaac Stevens gaf in 1854 het bevel tot oprichting van een universiteit in Washington. Enkele prominente inwoners van Seattle, onder leiding van predikter Daniel Bagley, zagen hierin de mogelijkheid om Seattle op de kaart te zetten. Ze konden de gouverneur overtuigen de universiteit in Seattle te bouwen. De universiteit werd officieel geopend op 4 november 1861. De beginjaren waren zwaar voor de nieuwe universiteit, en driemaal moest de universiteit tijdelijk sluiten: in 1863 vanwege gebrek aan studenten en in 1867 en 1876 door gebrek aan subsidie. In 1876 was het Clara Antoinette McCarty Wilt die als eerste student afstudeerde aan de universiteit. Ze haalde een bachelor in wetenschap. Toen Washington in 1889 officieel lid werd van de Verenigde Staten, waren zowel de universiteit als Seattle sterk gegroeid. In 1895 werd de universiteit verplaatst naar een nieuwe locatie meer in de buitenstad. Het oude grondgebied van de universiteit, wat nu bekendstaat als Metropolitan Tract, is wettelijk nog steeds eigendom van de universiteit. Organisatie De huidige president van de universiteit is Ana Mari Cauce. De universiteit wordt geregeerd door tien regenten, waarvan een zelf nog student is. Een van de huidige regenten is William H. Gates, Sr., vader van Bill Gates. Er zijn tevens twee overheden voor studenten binnen de universiteit: de Associated Students of the University of Washington (ASUW) en de Graduate & Professional Student Senate (GPSS). De universiteit biedt de mogelijk tot het halen van een bachelor, master of doctoraat via een van de 140 departementen, die zelf onderverdeeld zijn in verschillende colleges en scholen. Campus De campus van de Universiteit van Washington bevindt zich aan de kust van Union en Portage Bays, met uitzicht op het Pacific Coast Ranges aan de oostzijde en de Olympic Mountains aan de westzijde.

Cuff Complex

Cuff Complex, also known as The Cuff, is a gay bar and nightclub in Seattle, Washington, in the United States. Description and history Cuff Complex is located at 1533 13th Avenue in Seattle's Capitol Hill neighborhood. The business features four bars and a large deck. It attracts a diverse crowd, but is known for leather. The bar was established by two men who wanted a "positive social outlet for people who were into leather, Levi's and uniforms". Cuff, Ltd. was created in December 1992 and building construction began in January 1993. Randy Fields purchased Cuff in 2004. The bar celebrated its twentieth anniversary in March 2013. Cuff Complex hosts meetings and social gatherings for Northwest Bears, POZ Seattle (a grassroots organization of HIV+ gay men), Seattle Men in Leather, the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, and the Rainbow Alliance of the Deaf. It also hosts an annual Sunday Pride Street Party. Reception In 1995 and 2001, Cuff Complex received the Business of the Year award as part of the Pantheon of Leather Awards. In 2009, Seattle Weekly said of the bar's clientele, "Whereas gay clubs like Neighbours and R-Place have been infiltrated by heteros in recent years, the Cuff still retains a predominantly gay male crowd. Maybe it's the sex shop full of cock rings and flogs. Or the portrait of a lion having sex with a dude on the wall. Or the fact that ladies are quarantined to a single unisex bathroom. Whatever the reason, vaginas are few and far between at the Cuff." References External links Official website
Lake City Beach Park

Lake City Beach Park, formerly known as Northeast 130th Street Beach, is a 60-foot-wide (18 m) public beach in Seattle on Lake Washington located immediately off the Burke-Gilman Trail at the eastern end of NE 130th Street in Lake City. The beach was a source of controversy when, in 2013, after 82 years of public access, a fence was put by the owners of the two adjoining properties after they discovered a legal technicality that gave them ownership of the segment. The City of Seattle threatened in 2015 to force purchase of the land under eminent domain. Condemnation proceedings resulted in a settlement, and in 2019, the beach was made an official city park and officially named NE 130th Street End. The case had attracted enough attention over the years that The Seattle Times treated its designation as a park as front-page news. In February 2025, the park received its current name.

Pony (Seattle)

Pony is a gay bar in Seattle's Capitol Hill neighborhood, in the U.S. state of Washington. Description and history Pony is an LGBT-owned bar located at 1221 E Madison Street in Seattle's Capitol Hill neighborhood. It is housed in a 1930s building that served as a gas station. Seattle Weekly described Pony as a "one-of-a-kind bar that pays tribute to New York's Castro and West Village bars of the 1970s". In 2014, in response to the neighborhood's changing demographics, the bar's manager displayed a sign which read, "Attention: This is a gay bar. A very gay bar. If you aren't queer (or a respectful ally), get lost. This isn't a zoo and we're not your pets." Reception In 2013, Seattle Weekly readers voted for Pony as the best gay bar in Seattle. The paper's Zach Geballe said of the bar and its clientele: Let's be blatantly clear: Pony is not a bar for those who only dabble in gay culture. While other Capitol Hill bars try to appeal to both a gay and straight clientele, Pony is unabashedly aimed at gay males. If you were unsure of this upon entering, the gay pornography plastered on almost every inch of the space will reassure you very quickly that you are in fact in a gay bar. Because it doesn't pander to a straight crowd, it remains relevant to several generations of gay guys in Seattle without going too far down the nightclub rabbit hole. Drinks are affordable and (pun intended) stiff, and I'm led to believe that it still serves as one of the city's better meat markets. Oh, and there's a gloryhole in the bathroom, if that's your thing. The Stranger quipped, "The gays know how to have fun: They know it, you know it, I know it, and Pony is more fun per inch than anywhere in town, if not the world."
