Seram Island
Seram (umwhile spelled Ceram; an aa Seran or Serang) is the lairgest an main island o Maluku province o Indonesie, despite Ambon Island's historical importance. It is locatit juist north o smawer Ambon Island.
Peter Paul Rubens
His commissioned warks war maistly "history pentins", that includit releegious an meethological subjects, an hunt scenes. He pentit portraits, especially o friends, an sel-portraits, an in later life pentit several laundscapes. Rubens designed tapestries an prents, as weel as his awn hoose. He an aa owersaw the ephemeral decorations o the ryal entry intae Antwerp bi the Cardinal-Infante Ferdinand in 1635.
Georg Bednorz
Johannes Georg Bednorz (born 16 Mey 1950) is a German pheesicist wha, thegither wi K. Alex Müller, discovered heich-temperatur superconductivity in ceramics, for which thay shared the 1987 Nobel Prize in Pheesics.
Peter Paul Rubens
His drawins are predominantly verra forcefu but nae owerly detailed. He an aa made great uise o ile sketches as preparatory studies. He wis ane o the last major airtists tae mak consistent uise o widden panels as a support medium, even for verra muckle warks, but he uised canvas as weel, especially whan the wark needit tae be sent a lang distance. For altarpieces he whiles painted on sclate tae reduce reflection problems.
Isle o Whithorn
Isle Castle
Abuin the door o thir quarters is a stane wi the ineetials o Patrick Houseon o Drummaston an his guidwife Margaret Gordon, thegither wi the date o biggin, 1674. This state haes been muived fae the auld entry door o the main biggin. The angle turrets on the seicont fluir is cairit on three plain corbels an dinna shaw at aw in the inside o the biggin. A Gothic-style airchle wis ance attacht til the Drumelan Burn side o the castle.
The Bysbie corn mill wis locatit on the tither side o the Drummulin Burn fae the castle an a lairge mill pownd supplied the water pouer; the mll remeens lie ahint the Queen's Airms Hottle. A chalybeate 'spa wall' wis locatit ablo the castle as shawn bi the 1850s 6-inch-til-ae-mile OS map.
Saunt Ringan's Chaipel
Saunt Ringan's (St Ninian's) Chaipel wis mendit an pairtly rebuilt in 1898 bi the Marquess o Bute; its main featurs wis haint. The praisent ruins is rectangular, meisurin inby 31 fit x 16.5 fit. This biggn wis likely upset tae replace a 12t tae early 13t century chaipel, whase steid wis fund durin howkins an conseestit o a nave, 17.5 fit x 16.5 fit, wi a square chancel. The chaipel stuid within a contemporar hainin waw, part of that is staundin yet. An ootby hainin micht hae ance existit, best seen in swaip sunlicht, definin a rochsome oval aurie 100 fit x 110 ft. This ootby hainin micht be o the Celtic speal. Thare is no records o the chaipel's uiss as a buirial grund.
St Ringan is chief myndit at Whithorn. Houiver, mony places in Scotland is associatit wi his name, sic as St Ringan's Isle in the River Garnock near Kilwinnin. He convertit the Soothren Pechts an tharefore jurneyed oothrou mony auries in soothren Scotland.
Isle o Whithorn Tour
The Isle's maist fameeliar laundmerk is the square, white tour that haes been a navigational aid for hunders o years.
Fae here there is views o the Kirkcoubrie coast, the hale o the northren range o the English Lake Destrict muntains, an til the sooth the roondit, muntainous form o the Isle o Man.
Durin Warld War II it wis the site o a trackin station for anti-aircraft gunnery practice. The arrangement wis that an aircraft flew up an doun in front o the guns, that wad try tae bring it doun. Firstly, radio-controlt 'Queen Bee' aircraft wis uised, an the flet concrete steid by the white tour on the carin, no the location o the Solway Harvester memorial stane, wis laid down for ane o the control bothys. The memorial stane til the Solway Harvester is in the form of an anchor set in a granite block.
Isle Heid
The mull is nearly cut intae twa bi Chaipel Port east an wast. The artifeecial ditch o the Auld Fort is clear veesible yet on the approach tae Isle Heid.
Thare is a multivallate mull fort on Isle Head, conseestin o three rampairts an twa ditches, wi a likely fowert rampairt noo reduce't til a slicht scaur. On the seawart side o the mull is aff-an-on streetches o grummel linkin an uisin naitural ootcrops o rock; in the sootheast corner is inby an ootby faces, shawin the fittins o a waw up tae 3 yaird wide. On the levelt summit aurie is slicht hints o grummel wawin an artifeecial scaurin on the sooth an east sides; an in the nor'east corner is the possible remeens o a bothy circle.
A smaw block o rig is clear veesible on Isle Head, lyin atween the paith leadin til the mull an the rampairts and ditch o the Airn Age fort. The furrs is line't fae nor'east tae soothwast across the mull.
A witness cairn wis upset in 1997 tae commemorate the arrival o the Christian missionar Saunt Ringan tae thir shores, an pilgrimers is hertent tae place stanes wi personal messages ontil a rock cairn. Thir cairns is sitit in the remeens o a biggin uised tae hoose the Isle o Whithorn lifeboat.
The lifeboat biggin haed a ruif until weel efter the Seicont Warld War, awtho the station wis closed in 1919, whan a motor lifeboat wis place't on station at Kirkcoubrie. The Lifeboat Station wis upsetten in 1869. Durin the 50 year that the lifeboat station wis operatin thare wis three lifeboats:
The Solway Harvester Seat is a granite-hewen moniment an is ane o twa local treebutes tae the seiven-strang local crew o the fishin boat Solway Harvester that sank in a storm aff the Isle o Man in Januar 2000.
The herbour
The herbour remeens the main focal pynt o the veelage. The Isle's ain fleet is engaged in licht trawlin an lapster fishin. A nummer o leisur boats is keepit here an the Isle is increasin bein uised as a stappin aff location for pleisur traffeck sailin the wast coast, an as a lenchin site for trailer-sted boats sic as smaw anglin boats an divin RIB's.
A pier wis first biggit in the 16t century, bit a mair substantious structur wis biggit in 1790 tae avance commerce, sic as the tred wi Whitehaven an ither English ports. In 1969 the pier was badly daimiged bi a storm an wis anely rebuilt efter a prolanged campaign bi the local people. The Perk is a skellie that rins oot fae the wast side o the mooth o Isle Bay; it can be dangerous tae boats comin intil the Isle an for mony years the end wis merkit wi an airn powl.
In the 19t century the Isle haed strang tredin links with Ireland an the Isle o Man an aw, and ships wis being built as weel as sailin fae here. The Countess of Galloway, a steam packet, ance raiglar sailt fae here tae Liverpuil. By the end o the 20t century tredin boats haed gien wey awmaist enteerly tae yachts an ither pleisur boats.
The Wigtown Bay Sailing Club walcomes aw veesitin yachtsment whether thay arrive bi sea or bi laund wi trailert boats. The clubhoose is situatit on the herbor an has aw the uisual faceelitys. The herbour dries three oor aither side o heich watter, an thare is a dedicatit veesitors' berth at the ooter end o the quay. Thare is twa slipweys an aw for lenchin trailer boats or dinghies, ane o thaim is at the inner end o the quay an is sheltert in aw kynds o wather. The tither, that gies aiccess intil the bay, can be uised at virtual ony state o the tide. The club is acteeve ootthrou the simmer wi dinghy or cruiser races organised for maist weekends an some races mid-week.
The Wicker Man
Various scenes fae the 1973 pictur The Wicker Man wis filmt in an aroond the Isle o Whithorn. The heid-hicht o the pictur wis filmt at St Ringan's Cove an on the clift-taps at Burrow Heid. The co-awner o the Isle o Whithorn Castle, Elizabeth McAdam Laughland, an several ither local people featurt in various scenes.

Frank Lloyd Wright
Frank Lloyd Wright (Frank Lincoln Wright; 8 Juin, 1867 – 9 Aprile 1959) wis a famous American airchitect frae the early 20t centurie. He designit aw kinds o biggins includin banks, holiday resorts, office biggins, kirks, a synagogue, a gas station, a beer gairden an an airt museum.
Édouard Manet
Édouard Manet (23 Januar 1832 – 30 Aprile 1883) wis a French penter. He wis ane o the first 19t-century airtists tae pent modren life, an a pivotal feegur in the transeetion frae Realism tae Impressionism.
Frank Lloyd Wright
He began an American style of buildin design an is said tae be ane o the greatest airchitects o the twentiet centurie.
Édouard Manet
Born intae an upper-cless hoosehaud wi strang poleetical connections, Manet rejectit the futur oreeginally enveesioned for him, an becam engrossed in the warld o pentin. His early masterwarks, The Luncheon on the Gress (Le déjeuner sur l'herbe) an Olympia, baith 1863, caused great controversy an served as rallyin pynts for the young penters that wad creaut Impressionism. The day, thir are conseedert wattershed pentins that merk the stairt o modren airt. The last 20 years o Manet's life saw him form bonds wi ither great airtists o the time, an develop his awn style that wad be heraldit as innovative an serve as a major influence for futur penters.
Narwhal
The narwhal, or narwhaul (Monodon monoceros), is a medium-sized tuithed whaul that lives year-roond in the Arctic. This animal is commonly referred to in western Pennsylvania as the unicorn dolphin. Ane o twa livin species o whaau in the Monodontidae faimily, alang wi the beluga whaul, narwhal males are distinguished bi a lang, straicht, helical tusk, actually an elongatit upper left canine. Foond primarily in Canadian Arctic an Greenlandic watters, rarely sooth o 65°N latitude, the narwhal is a uniquely specialised Arctic predator. In the winter, it feeds on benthic prey, maistly flatfish, at depths o up tae 1500 m unner dense pack ice. Narwhals hae been harvestit for ower a thoosand years bi Inuit fowk in northren Canadae an Greenland for meat an ivory, an a regulated subsistence hunt continues tae this day. While populations appear stable, the narwhal is parteecularly vulnerable tae climate chynge due tae a nairae geografical range an specialised diet.
Frank Lloyd Wright
Wright wis born in Richland Center, Wisconsin on 8 Juin 1867 tae a fermin faimily.
His work includes oreeginal an creative ensaumples o mony biggin types. Wright an aa designit mony o the interior elements o his biggins, sic as the furnitur an stained glass. Wright authorit 20 beuks an mony airticles an wis a popular lecturer in the Unitit States an in Europe.
His colorful personal life eften made heidlines, maist notably for the 1914 fire an murders at his Taliesin studio. Already well-kent durin his lifetime, Wright wis recognizit in 1991 bi the American Institute of Architects as "the greatest American airchitect o aw time."
Wright deit on 9 Aprile, 1959 in Phoenix, Arizona frae surgical complications. He wis 91 year auld.
Early life
Frank Lloyd Wright wis born in the fermin toun o Richland Center, Wisconsin, Unitit States, on 8 Juin 1867. He wis born Frank Lincoln Wright. His faither, William Carey Wright (1825–1904), wis a locally admirit speaker, muisic teacher, whiles a lawyer, an meenister. William Wright haed met an marriit Anna Lloyd Jones (1838/39 – 1923), a coonty schuil teacher o Welsh strynd.
Early career
Wright did nae get alang well wi ether draftsmen. He wrote that several violent events happenit atween them durin the first years o his apprenticeship. Efterwards mony ither draftsmen shawed very little respect for his employees as well. In spite o this, "Sullivan took [Wright] under his wing and gave him great design responsibility." As an act o respect, Wright wad later refer tae Sullivan as Lieber Meister (German for "Dear Master"). Wright an aa formit a bond wi office foreman Paul Mueller. Wright wad later engage Mueller tae big several o his public an commercial biggins atween 1903 an 1923.
As Wright began tae wirk on residential projects for Adler & Sullivan. Wright designit his hooses on his ain time. Sullivan knew nothin o Wright's wirks till 1893, whan he recognizit that ane o the hooses wis a Frank Lloyd Wright design. This parteecular hoose, biggit for Allison Harlan, wis anly blocks away frae Sullivan's tounhoose in the Chicago commonty o Kenwood.
Fallingwater
The hoose actually sits law in the valley ower the stream, but leuks dramatic frae further dounstream. It haes lairge terraces, an some o them stick straucht oot an hang ower the watterfaw or the stream. Thare are windaes an glass doors, wi anly narrow steel supports atween them, wrappin aw the wey aroond the livin ruim.
Thare are an aa windaes gangin aw the wey frae the fluir tae the ceilin in aw three stories o the touer.
Maist o the hoose is made frae stane. Thare are strang horizontal an vertical lines in the design o the hoose. It resembles the horizontal an vertical lines in the rock formations an ither naitural featurs. The watterfaw can be heard everywhaur in the hoose. Wright wantit thare tae be a close connection atween inside an ootside, an for the hoose itself tae be naitural.
In 1991, members o the American Institute of Architects named the Fallingwater hoose the "best aw-time work o American airchitectur".
Robie House
Ane famous hoose wis cried the Robie House. It haed a maze lik layoot an geometric stainit glass windows. The Robie House wis a unique hoose wi odd shapes, colours an form. He finishit makin it in 1910, as a hoose for childer. In fact, mony childer livit an playit in that hoose wi thair faimilies up till 1926 whan it wis closed for livin in, an closit tae the public. Mony times, it wis planned tae be destroyit. Houiver, twice, Wright savit his hoose frae destruction acause o the reasons he biggit it an aw the memories o it that he lovit so much. It is nou bein restorit at a cost o $10 million.
Johnson Wax Headquarters
Anither famous biggin bi Wright wis cried the Johnson Wax Headquarters. The biggin haes Wright's idea o the streamlinit Art Moderne style popular in the 1930s. In a break wi Wright's earlier Prairie School structurs, the biggin featurs mony circular forms an needit ower 200 different curvit "Cherokee red" bricks tae creaut the sweepin curves o the inside an ootside.
The mortar atween the bricks wis creatit in tradeetional Wright-style tae gie the horizontality o the biggin. The warm, reddish hue o the bricks wis usit in the polishit concrete fluir as well. The white stane trim an white columns creaut a slicht yet strikin difference. Aw o the furnitur, creatit bi Steelcase, wis designit for the biggin bi Wright an it mirrorit mony o the biggin's unique design featurs.
The entrance is in the structur, enterin the biggin on ane side wi a coverit carport on the ither. The carport is supportit bi short versions o the steel-reinforcit (tree-lik) concrete columns that appear in the Great Workroom.
The Illinois
Wright proponed tae big a skyscraper callit The Illinois that wad be the hicht o a distance o a mile. It wis intendit tae be constructit in Chicago, Illinois. It coud hae includit 528 stories, wi a gross aurie o 18,460,000 square feet (1,715,000 m2). Wright statit that thare wad be parkin for 15,000 caurs an 150 helicopters.
Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum
The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York Ceety. Wright workit on this project for 16 years (1943–1959) an is probably his maist recognizit masterpiece. The biggin is locatit in Fifth Avenue. Its interior is seemilar tae the inside o a seashell.
Its ane o a kynd central geometry wis createit tae allou visitors tae easily see Guggenheim's collection of his paintins bi takin an elevator tae the tap-level an then viewin artworks bi walkin doun the slowly descendin, central spiral ramp, the floor o which is lodgit wi circular shapes an triangular licht bulbs tae complement the geometric naitur o the buildin.
Later career
Wright strangly believit in wirkin alane. He did nae support the American Institute of Architects durin his career, goin so far as tae caw the organisation "a harbor o refuge for the incompetent," an "a form o refined gangsterism." When an the Institute cried him "an auld amateur" Wright later respondit, "I am the auldest." In 1940, Wright startit the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation. It wis set up for eddicational purposes. It leuks efter twa Wright biggins, Taliesin East in Wisconsin, an Taliesin West in Arizona. It haes a library wi mair nor 22,000 o Wright's drawins, an 300,000 documents. It is home tae the Frank Lloyd Wright School of Architecture.
Personal life
Frank Lloyd Wright wis marrit three times an faitherit seiven childer, fower sons an three daughters. He an aa adoptit Svetlana Milanoff, the dauchter o his third wife, Olgivanna Lloyd Wright. Wright ance haed an apprentice who wis marrit tae Joseph Stalin's dauchter.
His wives war:
The Oscar-winnin actress Anne Baxter wis Wright's granddauchter.
Daith
Wright deit on 9 Aprile 1959, while undergangin surgery in Phoenix, Arizona, tae remove an intestinal obstruction. His third wife, Olgivanna wad die in 1985. Wright wis suin burit in Unity Chapel in Wisconsin. Years later, his remains war crematit.
Legacy
Shortly efter his daith, Simon & Garfunkel recordit So Long, Frank Lloyd Wright as a tribute tae Wright.
In 2000, Fallingwater wis namit "The Building of the 20th century" in "Top-Ten" poll taken bi members attendin the AIA annual convention in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. On that leet, Wright wis leetit alang wi mony o the USA's ither greatest airchitects includin Eero Saarinen, I. M. Pei, Louis Kahn, Philip Johnson an Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. He wis the anly airchitect who haed mair nor ane buildin on the leet. The ither three biggins war the Guggenheim Museum, the Frederick C. Robie House an the Johnson Wax Headquarters.

Bolnisi (ბოლნისი), is a ceety in the kintra o Georgie, locatit in the Kvemo Kartli region an caipital o the Bolnisi Destrict. Currently haes a estimatit 13,800 indwallers.
In 1818 the colony Katharinenfeld wis foondit in Bolnisi bi 95 German colonist faimilies frae Swabie. Efter the occupation o the Red Airmy in 1921, it wis renamit tae Luxemburg efter the German communist Rosa Luxemburg. In 1941 aw the Germans stryndants who wur no marriet tae Georgies wur deportit tae Siberie an Kazakhstan. In 1944 the toun wis ance again renamit as Bolnisi.
The economy is maistly agrarian wi the notable exceptions o a winery, brewery, an a gowd mine in the nearbi veelage o Kazreti.
Bolnisi is the hame o the auldest datit Christian structur in Georgie an the Caucasus. It is kent as Bolnisi Sioni (Sioni bein Georgie for Zion an a designation uised bi mony o thair kirks). This three-nave basilica kirk dates tae the 5t century AD an featurs some pagan elements in its stanewirk. The oreeginal ruif is missin but haes been replacit wi a modren coverin.
A dedication inscription frae the Bolnisi kirk, carvit in the late 5t century, is ane o the auldest datit specimens o Georgie writin. It mentions Bishop David o Bolnisi an twa Sassanid keengs Peroz I an Kavadh I.

Side-striped jackal
The side-striped jackal (Lupulella adusta) is a species o jackal, hamelt in central an soothren Africae. <!-- Unlike the smaller black-backed jackal which bides in open plains, the side-striped jackal primarily bides in woodland and scrub areas.
Description
The side-striped jackal is a middlin canid, which tends to be slightly mair muckle on average than the black-backed jackal. Body mass ranges from 6.5 to 14 kg (14 to 31 lb), head-and-body length from 69 to 81 cm (27 to 32 in) and tail length from 30 to 41 cm (12 to 16 in). Shoulder height can range from 35 to 50 cm (14 to 20 in). Its pelt is coloured buff-grey. The back is darker grey than the underside, and the tail is black with a white tip. Indistinct white stripes are present on the flanks, running from elbow to hip. The boldness of the markings varies between individuals, with those of adults being better defined than those of juveniles.
The side-striped jackal's skull is similar to that of the black-backed jackal's, but is flatter, with a longer and narrower snoot. Its sagittal crest and zygomatic arches are lighter in build as weel. Due to its longer snoot, its third upper premolar lies almost in line with the others, rather than at an angle. Its dentition is well suited to an omnivorous diet. The long, curved canines have a sharp ridge on the posterior surface, and the outer incisors are canine-like. Its carnassials are smaller than those of the more carnivorous black-backed jackal. Females have four inguinal teats.
Diet
The side-striped jackal tends to be less carnivorous than other jackal species, and is a highly adaptable omnivore whose dietary preferences change in accordance to seasonal and local variation. It tends to forage solitarily, though family groups of up to 12 jackals have been observed to feed together in western Zimbabwe. In the wild, it feeds largely on invertebrates during the wet season and small mammals, such as the springhare, in the dry months. It frequently scavenges from campsites and the kills of mair muckle predators. In the wild, fruit is taken exclusively in season, while in ruralised areas, it can account for 30% of their dietary intake. The side-striped jackal tends to be comparatively less predatory when compared to other jackal species. It typically does not target prey exceeding the size of neonatal antelopes, and one specimen was recorded to have entered a duck's pen to eat their feed, whilst ignoring the birds.
Social behaviour an reproduction
The side-striped jackal lives both solitarily and in family groups of up to seven individuals. The family unit is dominated by a breeding pair, which remains monogamous for a number of years.
The breeding season for this species depends on where they live; in southern Africa, breeding starts in June and ends in November. The side-striped jackal has a gestation period of 57 to 70 days, with average litter of three to six young. The young reach sexual maturity at six to eight months of age, and typically begin to leave when 11 months old. The side-striped jackal is among the few mammal species that mate for life, forming monogamous pairs.-->
