# Durgan Bridge

The Durgan Bridge is a truss bridge that carries Nevada Street over the North Yuba River in Downieville, California. Built in 1938, it is a rare surviving example of a one-lane, rigid-connected Pratt through truss span. The bridge was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on July 10, 2012. It is also known as the Nevada Street Bridge or Courthouse Bridge.

## History

The Durgan Bridge is one of four one-lane bridges that connect the town of Downieville, California. It was built in 1938 by the Judson Pacific Company to replace a bridge destroyed by a flood. It was designed by county surveyor and architect George F. Taylor.
The original Durgan Bridge was built in 1851 by James Durgan, for whom the bridge was named. The bridge is linked to the California gold rush, as it is referenced as a key location where gold was extracted. On June 24, 1854, two prospectors from the Canadian Co. recovered 105 ounces of gold from below the Durgan Bridge. Initially a pedestrian footbridge, it was widened later that same year to accommodate wagon traffic. Today, the Durgan Bridge and the Jersey Bridge serve as the two main bridge crossings in Downieville.

## Design

The Durgan Bridge was designed to carry both automotive and pedestrian traffic along Nevada Street over the North Yuba River. The single-lane bridge is 11.10 ft (3.38 m) wide and 140 feet (43 m)-long. Constructed in a steel Pratt through truss bridge, it features riveted steel I-beams and runs north-south along Nevada Street. At each end of the bridge, a builder’s plate that reads, “Pacific Rolling Mill Company Judson Pacific Co., San Francisco, 1938.” The bridge’s roadway deck is made of poured concrete, supported by two rectangular concrete piers. A four-foot concrete pedestrian walkway is located on the eastern side, while a water pipe runs along the lower chord on the western side. The Pratt design was invited by Thomas Willis Pratt.

## Historical Significance

Only a small number of single-lane Pratt through truss bridges still survive in California today. The Durgan Bridge is associated with the development of Downieville in Sierra County, built in response to a 1937 flood that destroyed the previous wooden bridge. It stands as a good example of the Truss Bridge type.

# Ibicuy Islands

The Ibicuy Islands (Spanish: Islas del Ibicuy) are a maze of low-level islands in the east of the Paraná Delta, within Entre Ríos Province, Argentina. They are located between the Paraná and Uruguay Rivers. The islands are part of the Islas del Ibicuy Department and have scattered but important settlements, like their capital Villa Paranacito. The principal access is by the Ibicuy River, a branch of the Paraná River.
Ibicuy is a Guaraní word, meaning 'sandy area'. The Guaraní were the first inhabitants of the islands. They built embankments of sand and earth as look-outs and flood defences known as cerritos, which can still be seen rising above the dense vegetation which characterises the river delta. It is thought that the Guaraní arrived in Ibicuy in search of the tierra sin mal, the earthly paradise inhabited by the spirit Ñandey, located in the east close to the sea.
The islands were settled in the late 19th century and early 20th century by European planters, originally Italians from Montevideo searching for wood for charcoal production. The majority of settlers were from northern and central Europe and were employed in agriculture and forestry, still the predominant industries. In an effort to demarcate, protect and irrigate their lands, settlers dug new channels and filled others in, changing the topography of the islands.
The remoteness of the islands - originally accessible only by boat - made them a hideout for outlaws and criminals from Buenos Aires and Montevideo. The marxist Liborio Justo lived there in the 1940s, the harsh environment and the fugitives who inhabited it, inspired his book of short stories, entitled Rio Abajo ("Down the River"), which was later made into a movie with the same title. Nowadays tourism is one of the main activities of the islands, where typical Delta wildlife such as the Neotropic cormorant, capybara and marsh deer can be seen.

# Cissus (mythology)

In Greek mythology, Cissus or Kissos (Ancient Greek: Κισσός, romanized: Kissós, lit. 'ivy') was a satyr who was turned into an ivy plant. His story survives only in Nonnus's early fifth century AD epic poem Dionysiaca.

## Mythology

Cissus, together with another satyr Leneus, contested in foot running with Ampelus, a young Phrygian loved by Dionysus.
   Springheel Lyaios [i.e. Dionysus] cried his summons aloud, and first up leapt windfoot Leneus, then on either side of him highstepping Cissos and charming Ampelos stood up. They stood in a row, confident in the quick soles of their straightfaring feet. Cissos flew with stormy movement of his feet just skimming the top of the ground as he touched it. Leneus was running behind him quick as the winds of heaven and warming the back of the sprinter with his breath, close behind the leader, and he touched footstep with footstep on the dust as it dropped, with following feet: the space between them both was no more than the rod leaves open before the bosom of a girl working at the loom, close to the firm breast. Ampelos came third and last. Dionysos saw them out of the corner of his eye, and melted with jealousy that the two competitors should be in front, afraid they might win and Ampelos come in behind them; so the god helped him, breathed strength into him, and made the boy swifter than the spinning gale. Then Cissos, first of the two in the race, striving so hard for the prize, stumbled over a wet place on the shore, slipt and fell in the sandy slush; Leneus had to check the course of his feet, and his knees lost their swing: so both competitors were passed and Ampelos carried off the victory. The old Seilenoi shouted Euoi! amazed at the victory of the youth. He received the first prize with soft hair flowing, Leneus took the second full of envy, for he understood the jealous trick of Lyaios and his passion; Cissos eyed his comrades with look abashed, as he held out his hand for the last prize discontented.
Later on, Cissus was metamorphosed into an ivy plant while he was climbing with legs across the branches in a tree.
   Cissos, the lovely youth, shall creep into a plant, and he shall be the highflying ivy that entwines about the branches.

# Labyrinth Gallery

Galeria Labirynt was established in 1956 as the Bureau of Artistic Exhibitions (Polish: Biuro Wystaw Artystycznych or Polish: BWA) in Lublin, Poland. It presents a variety of art disciplines including installations, video art, performance art, multimedia, photography, film, art, building, painting, and drawing.

## History

Galeria Labirynt was founded in 1956 as the BWA. In 1981 Andrzej Mroczek became the director of BWA. In the gallery he continued to pursue the first program that he had led since 1974. Galeria Labirynt promoted contemporary art, focusing on the formal experiment.
BWA gained nationwide and worldwide recognition as an artists’ meeting place. After the introduction of martial law in Poland, BWA was one of the few government institutions not under a boycott. This was evidence of the trust that independent Polish artistic milieus had for the director, Andrzej Mroczek.
In 2010 Waldemar Tatarczuk became the new director of BWA. Similar to Andrzej Mroczek, he added his ideas of a Performance Art Centre, run by him in the years 1999 – 2010, to the gallery's program. Tatarczuk changed the name of the gallery from BWA to Galeria Labirynt. The name in English means Labyrinth Gallery.
As of 2012, Galeria Labirynt mainly follows the path established by Andrzej Mroczek — presenting the classics of contemporary art and works of the artists linked with his program, taking an in-depth look at present day works of art, and searching for universal values in art.

# Benito Lynch

Benito Eduardo Lynch Beaulieu (25 July 1885 - 23 December 1951) was an Argentine novelist and short story writer.

## Biography

Lynch was born in Buenos Aires. He came from a family of Irish origin who settled in the Río de la Plata region since the 18th century. They were descendants of Patrick Lynch from Galway. He spent his childhood and adolescence on the large country estate of his grandfather Ventura Lynch. After the estate was sold, the family settled in La Plata, the newly built capital of the Buenos Aires Province. Lynch was a lifelong recluse à la Emily Dickinson, living all his life with two unmarried sisters in a large old house in La Plata.
An eccentric, Lynch's quirky short stories have been often filmed and dramatized. He wrote more than a hundred of them, most of them in a neo-gauchoesque manner that sometimes evokes magic realism. He also strikes a genuinely and authentically popular vein.
He was also a sports fan. He played professional soccer in 1901. His club, Club de Gimnasia y Esgrima La Plata, was founded in 1887 and is now the oldest professional soccer club in America. He played in the first organized match recorded in La Plata. He died in 1951 in Mar del Plata, a seaside city in the Province of Buenos Aires, Argentina.
