# Emmanuel Church, Nottingham

Emmanuel Church, Nottingham was a Church of England church in Nottingham on Woodborough Road between 1883 and 1972.

## History

The foundation stone was laid on 24 January 1884 by Mrs. Henry Wright of Heath House, Hampstead, widow of the late Revd. Henry Wright. At the service which followed the laying of the stone, the preacher was the Dean of Ripon, Very Revd. William Fremantle. It was built to designs by the local architect Watson Fothergill. The nave was completed at a cost of £5,000 (equivalent to £680,000 in 2023) and consecrated on 27 January 1885 by the Bishop of Southwell, Right Revd. George Ridding. It was constructed of Coxbench stone and the interior was lined with red brick. The columns were made of Darley Dale and Gorse Hill stone in alternate courses. The contractor was Smith and Lunn of Newark, the ironwork was made by Mr. Hodgkinson of Coventry, and the heating apparatus was installed by Haden and Sons of Trowbridge, Wiltshire. There were 600 free seats, and a parish of 6,000. It was situated on Woodborough Road. The patrons of the church were an Evangelical charity known as Hyndman's Trustees, who gave £2,000 to the building fund.
The chancel and organ chamber were added in 1892-93 and consecrated by the Bishop of Southwell on 17 March 1893. It comprised a high dado of glazed Minton tiles, continued as a reredos over the altar, with ecclesiastical symbols executed in encaustic work. The new chancel was designed by Watson Fothergill and built by the contractor Enoch Kent of Nottingham.
In the early 1970s it merged with St. Ann's Church, Nottingham and a new parish of St. Ann with Emmanuel, Nottingham was formed.

# McMillin Observatory

McMillin Observatory was an astronomical observatory built around 1895 on the campus of Ohio State University. Named after Emerson McMillin and operated by the university, the observatory closed in 1968 and its telescope later moved to Ballreich Observatory. The observatory was equipped with photographic cameras, a filar micrometer, and a custom Brashear spectroscope. The observatory had two main focuses, education and at least one astronomic scientific research study focus.

## History

The director of the observatory was Professor Henry C. Lord.
The observatory was equipped with a 12.5 inch aperture refractor, the largest telescope in Ohio, USA on its debut in 1896. It was on a Warner and Swasey mounting and Brashear made the optics. An 1896 document about the observatory said the Warner and Swasey mount was so well known it did no need description.
The observatory was formally opened on June 16, 1896. The building included the one foot refractor, a laboratory, and a planetarium. The refractor was equipped with a spectrograph. Also, although the observatory was not opened until June, the telescope was ready by December 1895.
In the 1930s OSU became involved with the Perkins Observatory, which had been given a 69-inch reflector. This was the third largest telescope in the world, and OSU and that observatory had an agreement for about 70 years.
The refractor was reportedly given to Kaubisch Memorial Library of Fostoria in 1975, however it was not moved out due to its size and was put in storage when the University had the building razed in 1976.
In the 1980s the refactor was established in the Ballreich observatory. Then the telescope was eventually owned by Heidelberg University of Ohio, while it remains at Ballreich. It was reported that as a condition of funding the observatory, OSU was supposed to allow public access to the observatory, which they did by allowing twice monthly public sessions until 1962.
The overall observatory was funded by the donations of the benefactor Emerson McMillion, who also gave five year endowment for a Fellowship in Astronomy, and he also funded an expedition to Hawaii to observe the 1910 apparition of Halley's Comet.

# Siege of Hama (1130)

The siege of Hama was led by Imad al-Din Zengi who besieged and captured the city of Hama, then held by the Burids.
At the beginning of 1130 Zengi desired to gain political legitimacy in Syria, as a result he married the daughter of the former ruler of Aleppo. This move may have given him prestige over the Damascene Burids whom Zengi had sent several messages to inviting them to join him in a jihad against the Crusaders.
When Buri overcame his doubts about Zengi he sent his son Sawinj, lord of Hama, in command of 500 elite knights. The warm welcome and hospitality of Zengi banished any doubts and mistrust that Sawinj and his commanders may have had. Three days later Zengi had Sawinj and his commanders arrested and imprisoned in Aleppo. Zengi managed to loot the camp of Sawinj and confiscate all of his weapons, he then laid siege to Hama and captured it in October 1130.
# Tabriz National Library

The Tabriz Central Library (Persian: کتابخانه ملی تبریز), formerly Tabriz National Library, was founded in 1956 by Hajj Mohammad Nakhjavani with help from the people of Tabriz, Iran. It contains several handwritten books. The library is called National because of its non-benefit and non-governmental structure. Initially the library started by the books which are gathered by people specially by Nakhjavani, the building also constructed without any government investment.
The original building was in the vicinity of Ark. After the revolution the initial building was destroyed by clerical hardliners in 1978 and the books moved to other buildings near to the Golestan Park, when they were destroying the historic Tabriz City Theater building that was placed behind the library building to make a new mosque.
Currently a new modern building is made for the library by the Iranian Ministry of Culture.
# Perth Central Baptist Church

The Perth Central Baptist Church was a Baptist church building in Perth, Western Australia. The church was completed in 1899 and demolished in 1979 to make way for the Alexander Library Building. The foundation stone for the church was incorporated into the library building.
The church was officially opened on 5 May 1899.
# Amritsar rugs and carpets

Amritsar rugs and carpets are produced in Amritsar, located in the northwest of India, near the Kashmir region. While India does in fact boast a long history of weaving fine rugs and carpets, Amritsar rugs are unique in the wide gamut of traditional Indian styles. This is because the weavers of Amritsar had not developed a distinctive style of rug making until the early nineteenth century – hundreds of years after other regions of India had first developed their own weaving traditions. While regions of southern and western India began weaving Persian-influenced rugs during the reign of the Mughal emperors, who preferred the traditional aesthetics and design elements of the Persians, the weavers of Amritsar took their direction from somewhere different: the sensibilities of the West.
Generally speaking, Amritsar rugs are based upon European influence and Western taste, a decision made by the weavers following the incredible explosion in demand for carpets in both the United States and Europe during the nineteenth century. Basing design elements on Western tastes as opposed to Indian traditions, the weavers of Amritsar fashioned a style that is unique and easily distinguished from other Indian styles. Using high quality wool, Amritsar rugs are manufactured with a cotton foundation, double weft and an asymmetrical knot - all of which contribute to its luxurious feel.

## History

After a fashion, the Western influence present in the design of Amritsar rugs is a reflection of the influence of Colonial rule on India. Amritsar rugs may be seen, collectively, as an attempt by the craftspeople of Northern India to capitalize on the demand for exotic rugs and textiles that followed on the heels of Queen Victoria's 1851 Great Exhibition in the Crystal Palace, an affair that exposed a tremendous volume of laypeople to the treasures of the Orient. Exotic art became extraordinarily fashionable during this time, especially in London, where pride in the unparalleled scope and influence of the British Empire, combined with the huge amount of wealth that was pouring into the United Kingdom because of this influence, created a market for luxurious, "Oriental" artwork, the scale of which had never been seen before.
Featuring designs that center upon elegant, curvilinear botanical motifs, and consisting of superior materials, Amritsar carpets were intentionally manufactured to be desirable and easy to appreciate for the metropolitan collectors of London, the United States, Canada, and other Western markets. Amritsar rugs are generally made with a softer, earthier palette, often with a tendency to burgundy or aubergine tones.
In today's rug world, Amritsar rugs remain highly desirable and widely collected, largely because of their flexible formal repertoire and coloration. So long-lasting and deep was the Western influence on nineteenth century India that the unique styles that emerged from this place at this time are widely admired by art historians, critics, and commentators centuries after their debut onto the world stage.
# Edwin H. Armstrong House

The Edwin H. Armstrong House, in Yonkers in Westchester County, New York, is unusual for having achieved listing on the National Register of Historic Places and even designation as a National Historic Landmark, only to be demolished. Its subsequent removal from National Historic Landmark status is the only such occurrence for a New York State site.
It was the home of Edwin H. Armstrong, inventor of two circuits that are the basis of modern telecommunication systems, and also inventor of wide-band frequency modulation (FM) radio.
The home, a Queen Anne house, was located at 1032 Warburton Avenue in Yonkers.
It was designated a National Historic Landmark on January 7, 1976. It was demolished in 1983 after suffering fire damage. It was subsequently de-designated as a National Historic Landmark and delisted from the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.
# Lake Albina Ski Lodge

Lake Albina Ski Lodge was built overlooking Lake Albina in the Kosciuszko National Park of Australia, by The Ski Tourers Association, (later renamed The Australian Alpine Club).

Summer time ski events continued for at least another 3 years on either Mount Kosciuszko or Mount Townsend. The National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) required the club to vacate the lodge in 1969, and it gradually became a ruin. It was finally demolished by NPWS in 1983 .

# Palladium Theatre, Edinburgh

The Palladium Theatre was a theatre at East Fountainbridge in Edinburgh, Scotland.
It was originally built as the Royal Circus by John Henry Cooke, opening in 1886. By 1908, it had been converted for use as a cinema and was rebuilt as a purpose-built cinema in 1911. After it closed as a cinema in 1932, it was used as a theatre by Millicent Ward and her Company (during which time John Le Mesurier made his professional stage debut there) until 1935 when it reverted to use as a venue for variety shows. During this period of its existence, stars including Lex McLean, Donald Peers, Robert Wilson and The Alexander Brothers performed there.
By the 1950s it was in use as a venue in the early years of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. It finally closed for theatrical use in 1966, and was then converted into a bingo hall.
In the late 1960s and early 1970s, it was a nightclub known as the White Elephant, before changing its name in the late 1970s to Valentino's. During this time it hosted bands including Slade, The Cure, U2 and New Order. For a time it was also known as The Muscular Arms.
The venue was demolished in 1984 and the site is now occupied by Government offices.
# St Andrew's Church, Bordesley

St Andrew's Church, Bordesley was a parish church in the Church of England in Birmingham.

## History

The foundation stone was laid on 23 July 1844 by Henry Pepys, the Bishop of Worcester. The church was built to designs of the architect Richard Cromwell Carpenter with funds from the Birmingham Church Building Society. It was consecrated by Pepys on 30 September 1846.
Its decorated gothic style and layout was admired by contemporary ecclesiologists for the correctness of its plan. It was the last church constructed by the Birmingham Church Building Society.
Out of this parish St Oswald's Church, Small Heath was formed.
A storm in 1894 damaged the spire. The vicar was in dispute with the churchwardens, and the repairs were not completed until after the vicar, Robert Foster Burrow, left in 1900. The spire was restored in 1901.
The church was demolished in 1985, having given its name to the adjacent St Andrew's Road and St Andrew's Street, and to the nearby St Andrew's football ground, home of Birmingham City F.C.
