Apse

In architecture, an apse (pl.: apses; from Latin absis, 'arch, vault'; from Ancient Greek ἀψίς, apsis, 'arch'; sometimes written apsis; pl.: apsides) is a semicircular recess covered with a hemispherical vault or semi-dome, also known as an exedra. In Byzantine, Romanesque, and Gothic Christian church (including cathedral and abbey) architecture, the term is applied to a semi-circular or polygonal termination of the main building at the liturgical east end (where the altar is), regardless of the shape of the roof, which may be flat, sloping, domed, or hemispherical. Smaller apses are found elsewhere, especially in shrines.
An apse is a semicircular recess, often covered with a hemispherical vault. Commonly, the apse of a church, cathedral or basilica is the semicircular or polygonal termination to the choir or sanctuary, or sometimes at the end of an aisle.
Smaller apses are sometimes built in other parts of the church, especially for reliquaries or shrines of saints.
The domed apse became a standard part of the church plan in the early Christian era.
In the Eastern Orthodox Church tradition, the south apse is known as the diaconicon and the north apse as the prothesis. Various ecclesiastical features of which the apse may form part are drawn together here.
The chancel (or sanctuary), directly to the east beyond the choir, contains the high altar, where there is one (compare communion table). This area is reserved for the clergy, and was therefore formerly called the "presbytery", from Greek presbuteros, "elder", or in older and Catholic usage "priest".
Semi-circular choirs, first developed in the East, which came into use in France in 470. By the onset of the 13th century, they had been augmented with radiating apse chapels outside the choir aisle, the entire structure of apse, choir and radiating chapels coming to be known as the chevet (French, "headpiece").
Tully, County Galway

Tully (Irish: An Tulaigh, "the hill") is a small village on the Renvyle Peninsula in north-west Connemara, County Galway, Ireland. It is situated on the Wild Atlantic Way coastal route.
Tully contains a post office, a hardware shop, a supermarket, a doctor's surgery, a pharmacy, a community centre, and a music house (Teach Ceoil), as well as a horse-riding centre. The village is a quarter of a mile from the sea and has views over the Atlantic Ocean. The Twelve Pins mountain range looms large over the area. The Renvyle House Hotel, former home of poet Oliver St. John Gogarty, lies a mile to the west. Tully's sister village, Tully Cross, is a mile to the east. The nearest town is Clifden, which is thirteen miles to the south.
In 1881 the landowner Caroline Blake was in dispute with her tenants. She believed that her tenants were exaggerating the famine caused by crop failure. The Land League were instructing the population to refuse to pay a full rent to the landlord and punishing any who did. It was said (by Blake) that a meeting in Tully Cross church had discussed finding £5 to pay someone to kill her. She responded by having 109 people evicted from the village in September 1881. Over the next few years the rents charged were reduced by the Land Court and Grant's inclome was so reduced that she had to open Renvyle House as a hotel. She gained some sympathy in the press that a noblewoman had to resort to commercial enterprise.

Famous-Barr

The Famous-Barr Co. (originally Famous and Barr Co.) was a division of Macy's, Inc. (formerly Federated Department Stores). Headquartered in St. Louis, Missouri, in the Railway Exchange Building, it was the flagship store of The May Department Stores Company, which was acquired by Federated on August 30, 2005. On February 1, 2006, it was subsumed into the newly created Macy's Midwest division.
The company can be traced back to Motte's, a store founded in 1874 by Jesse W. Motte, who sold boots and shoes at 714 Franklin Street. In 1876, Motte took on as business partner his store's supervisor, Joseph Specht. The two added clothing to their wares, and presently moved the store to 703–705 Franklin, where it was listed in the city directory as Famous, Motte & Specht. It was more popularly known as the Famous Clothing Company — "famous" reportedly coming from the public's referring to the store as the "famous place for bargains".
Retailer David May acquired the Famous Clothing Store in 1892. Sometime later, he acquired William Barr Dry Goods Co. In 1911, he merged the two to create Famous-Barr.
Famous-Barr was one of many St. Louis retail companies that owned a resort along the Meramec River between the early 1900’s to 1940’s.
In 1914, David May opened a new Famous-Barr department store in downtown St. Louis, the first air-conditioned department store in the country.
On October 8, 1948, Famous-Barr opened its first branch store in Clayton, Missouri at the intersection of Forsyth and Jackson.
In 1955, Famous-Barr opened another branch store, at the Northland Shopping Center in Jennings — a mall owned by Famous-Barr's corporate parent, the May Companies. The Northland store celebrated its 25th anniversary in 1980.
In 1991, it took operational control of the L.S. Ayres division in Indiana, and in 1998 took on The Jones Store in Kansas City when May acquired that chain in the aftermath of the Dillard's acquisition of Mercantile Stores Co. Both chains retained their names, but shut down their headquarters.
The Famous-Barr name was retired on September 9, 2006, when Federated converted most of Macy's regional department stores to the Macy's nameplate, with the exception of the Eastland Mall store in Evansville, Indiana. The Eastland Mall store closed and became Dillard's instead due to the existing Lazarus store which already became Macy's in 2005. The downtown St. Louis store and headquarters were first shrunk and then closed in summer 2013; the remaining retail employees moved to other stores, while the headquarters staff moved to Earth City.
Our Lady of Wisdom Cathedral, Blantyre

The Our Lady of Wisdom Cathedral or Cathedral Limbe Our Lady of Wisdom, also simply Cathedral of Blantyre, is a religious building belonging to the Catholic Church and is located in Blantyre the second largest city in the African country of Malawi, in the Southern region.
The temple follows the Roman or Latin rite and serves as headquarters of the Archdiocese of Blantyre (Archidioecesis Blantyrensis) which was created in 1959 by Pope John XXIII by bula Cum fides christiana.
It is under the pastoral responsibility of Archbishop Thomas Luke Msusa. Masses are offered in both English and the local language Chichewa.
Roman Catholic Diocese of Gikongoro

The Roman Catholic Diocese of Gikongoro (Latin: Ghikongoroën(sis)) is a diocese located in the city of Gikongoro in the ecclesiastical province of Kigali in Rwanda. The diocese is home to the parish of Kibeho, where there were reported apparitions of the Virgin Mary throughout the 1980s. A shrine celebrating the apparitions of Our Lady of Kibeho now stands at the site and serves as a place of pilgrimage. The diocese also includes large Catholic parishes at Kaduha and Cyanika. Gikongoro was historically the poorest province in Rwanda. Gikongoro is now part of South Province.
The first bishop to serve the diocese, Augustin Misago, was appointed in part because he had studied and written on the Kibeho apparitions when he served as Rector of the Grand Seminary of Nyakibanda. In 1999, the Rwandan government charged Bishop Misago with complicity in the 1994 genocide, and he spent 14 months in prison while his trial took place. He was ultimately acquitted in June 2000 and allowed to return to his functions as bishop.

Caldeirada

Tradicionalmente, a caldeirada, em Portugal e na Galiza, é um cozido, ou seja, uma preparação que não passa pelo refogado, cujos componentes básicos são diversas variedades de peixe, batata, cebola, tomate e pimentão. O tempero deste prato pode incluir apenas sal de cozinha e azeite, ou vários outros condimentos, como pimenta, salsa ou outros.
A caldeirada pode ser mais ou menos líquida: por vezes, é servida como uma sopa, noutras regiões é frequente servi-la sobre fatias de pão ou com pedacinhos de pão torrado.
Em Angola e Moçambique, é frequente fazer-se caldeirada de cabrito, em que a forma de preparar é semelhante à indicada para peixe.
No Brasil a Caldeirada é feita à base de azeite de dendê, leite de coco, coentro, salsinha ou cheiro-verde, pimenta, tomate, pimentão, postas de peixe tipo namorado, robalo ou cação, e frutos do mar tipo: mexilhão, polvo, lula acrescidos de sal. A Caldeirada Brasileira é na verdade uma moqueca acrescida de vários Frutos do Mar.
A caldeirada poveira é uma especialidade da Póvoa de Varzim em Portugal.
O prato consiste num cozido que mistura alimentos facilmente disponíveis: do mar, uma variedade de peixes, em que se destacam o congro, o pescado mais comum na caldeirada, mas também outros como a raia, o tamboril ou a lula. Da praia, a amêijoa, outrora bastante comum na Enseada da Póvoa, que se coloca no fundo da panela para evitar que o cozinhado pegue. E dos campos a norte da cidade a batata, o tomate e a cebola.
Para a confecção, os vários ingredientes são colocados em camadas, começando na ameijoa, e regados por vinho branco maduro e azeite.
Uma receita mais elaborada, em que a caldeirada é engrossada com farinha de trigo e ovos, encontra-se na página da Câmara Municipal da Póvoa.
Erã peterê

Erã peterê, eran peterê ou simplesmente peteran, como é comumente chamado pelos adeptos do candomblé, é a comida ritual votiva, pertinente a vários rituais e orixás do candomblé. É preparada com carne fresca (de preferência, oriunda dos rituais de sacrifício) e sal e rapidamente frita no azeite de dendê. Em caso de o orixá ser funfun, deve-se substituir o sal pela cebola e o dendê por azeite doce e oferecido ao orixá regente da obrigação, independente do ixé.
A mesma comida ritual, recheada de camarão defumado e chamada popularmente xinxim ou moqueca de carne, é servida normalmente aos adeptos do candomblé nas festas de barracão, sendo uma comida votiva ao orixá Oxóssi por ter ligação com o eran (carne).
"Xinxim" é proveniente do termo ioruba xin'xin.
Vale da Moqueca

O Vale da Moqueca é um movimento independente que nasceu no Espírito Santo , inspirado no conceito do Vale do Silício, que reúne empresários, profissionais liberais e estudantes em prol de incentivar a inovação no Estado. O objetivo é formar um ecossistema inovador e disruptivo, propício para o fortalecimento dos negócios e atração de novos investimentos aproveitando o potencial logístico, a riqueza cultural, o espírito colaborativo, a essência empreendedora e a diversidade local do Espírito Santo.
O movimento está centralizado na Região Metropolitana de Vitória, delimitando com isso um território para fortalecer, atrair investimentos e receber novas empresa. Esse trabalho vem sendo sustentado em três pilares: iniciativa privada, acadêmica e governo. Seus idealizadores fomentam, em nome do movimento, políticas públicas voltadas para mobilidade urbana, turismo e navegação de internet em locais públicos na região que abarca o Vale da Moqueca, beneficiando com isso as empresas e a comunidade local. Com isso, o Espírito Santo poderá ser incluído no grande eixo de desenvolvimento tecnológico do Sul/Sudeste.
Sem base fixa e nem CNPJ, o Vale da Moqueca é um movimento que favorece a união de empresas, com o apoio de outros setores da sociedade, para trocar ideias e se fortalecer a fim de atrair mais investimentos e incentivos fiscais para o desenvolvimento tecnológico no Espírito Santo . Uma das ações já realizadas por integrantes do grupo foi uma excursão para o Parque Tecnológico BH Tec para conhecer as experiências bem-sucedidas da região para batalhar por elas no Vale da Moqueca.
O nome Vale da Moqueca foi proposto em referência a um dos pratos mais tradicionais do Espírito Santo, a moqueca capixaba, que é preparada na tradicional panela de barro de Goiabeiras. Assim como o prato, o Vale da Moqueca também seria então uma “mistura de ingredientes” que transborda os limites da panela. São atores engajados em transformar o Estado em um ambiente favorável para a economia criativa, inovação em novos negócios e instalação de startups, gerando com isso o que já chamam de “Rota” do Vale da Moqueca.[1]

County Antrim Shield

The County Antrim & District Football Association Senior Shield (more commonly known as the County Antrim Shield) is a football competition in Northern Ireland. The competition is open to senior teams who are members of the North East Ulster Football Association (also known as the County Antrim & District Football Association) (membership of which extends geographically beyond County Antrim itself), often plus intermediate teams who qualify via the Steel & Sons Cup, depending on the numbers required. For the 2010–11 and 2011-12 seasons, only the winners took part.
The current Shield holders are Glentoran, who beat Larne 5–4 on penalties in the 2024–25 final, winning the trophy for the first time since the 2010–11 season.
The County Antrim & District Football Association was founded on April 23, 1888 by the clubs Ballyclare, Beechmount, Belfast Athletic, Clarence, Cliftonville, Distillery, Linfield, Mountcollyer, Oldpark, Whiteabbey and YMCA. The County Antrim FA has organised the competition for the County Antrim Shield annually ever since. Originally only clubs from County Antrim (to which most but not all of Belfast belonged) could enter; in 1896 it was extended to incorporate clubs from south east Belfast (in particular Glentoran and Ulster), which belonged to County Down (other clubs from County Down to have entered later on include Ards, Bangor and Newry City). Glenavon from Lurgan (County Armagh) first entered in 1912. In 1971/72 and 1972/73, the final was played over 2 legs.
During the later 1980s and early 1990s, the North East Ulster F.A. invited senior clubs from outside its jurisdiction to participate. Hence the Shield has been won by Newry Town (later Newry City) and Glenavon, neither of which are members of the North East Ulster Football Association.
The Shield has been regularly sponsored since the late 1980s. The 2014–15 competition was sponsored by Toals Bookmakers.
Key:
To mark the centenary of the County Antrim F.A., a Centenary Chalice was played for in 1987–88. Glentoran won it, defeating Ballymena United 4–2 in the final.
Seven Natural Wonders of the UK

The Seven Natural Wonders of the UK is a list compiled in May 2021 by the Royal Geographical Society. The seven wonders were chosen for their "shared beauty, uniqueness, and geological significance". There are four wonders in England (Wastwater, Dovedale, The Needles and the Jurassic Coast), one in Northern Ireland (Giant's Causeway), one in Scotland (Loch Coruisk & The Cuillins) and one in Wales (Pistyll Rhaeadr).
The list was compiled in May 2021 by the Royal Geographical Society in partnership with American outdoor clothing firm Merrell. It consists of what the compilers consider the most beautiful nature spots in the United Kingdom. The Royal Geographic Society's criteria for selecting the list were "shared beauty, uniqueness, and geological significance". The seven wonders selected include four from England (Wastwater, Dovedale, The Needles and the Jurassic Coast), one from Northern Ireland (Giant's Causeway), one from Scotland (Loch Coruisk & The Cuillins) and one from Wales (Pistyll Rhaeadr). Pistyll Rhaeadr has, since the 18th century, been considered one of the Seven Wonders of Wales.
A survey carried out by Merrell found that 41% of British adults had not visited a single one of the seven natural wonders. The Jurassic Coast was the most visited, with 31% of those surveyed reporting having travelled there, while Pistyll Rhaeadr was the least visited, with only 6% of those surveyed stating that had made a trip there. The survey found that only 10% of Britons had heard of all seven of the natural wonders.
The list was compiled following the COVID-19 pandemic which greatly restricted the ability of British people to travel and the compilers of the list hoped that it would inspire more travel to the locations selected.

Daily Planet (brothel)

The Daily Planet was a licensed brothel in Melbourne, Australia. The 18-room establishment was located in Horne Street, Elsternwick. It was also mentioned in interviews and promoted by Blink 182 during an Australian tour in 1998 and Jim Jefferies during stand up.
The Daily Planet was founded in 1975 by John Trimble, the nephew of crime boss Robert Trimbole.
In 2003, the brothel's operation was separated from its real-estate holdings, and the real estate property trust, named The Daily Planet Limited, proceeded with an initial public offering on the Australian Securities Exchange. Heidi Fleiss had been hired to generate publicity. The company acquired a strip club business in 2003.
In 2003, the public company resolved to sell the Daily Planet building for $5.7 million. The company changed its name to Planet Platinum Limited and went on to pursue its investments in strip clubs. However, the sale of the Daily Planet building never happened, and the property was taken off the market in 2006.
In 2018, the Daily Planet closed down with the building transformed into a Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centre called the Wellbeing Planet.
The Daily Planet was the primary sponsor of Daily Planet Racing, John Trimble's motor racing team that competed in the Australian Touring Car Championship in the 1990s.

Spiral House

The Spiral House (Hebrew: בית הספירלה, Beit HaSpirala) is an apartment complex in Ramat Gan, Israel, designed by the architect Zvi Hecker.
The complex has a form of an upward spiral; it was built by Jaakov Hai and designed by the architect Zvi Hecker in collaboration with Gil Bernstein, Shmuel Groberman, and Rina Hering. The owner is Ezra Mualem. The house "deploys the principle of terracing typical of Arab villages where the roof is used as part of the living space for the apartments".
Construction took place from 1984 to 1990. Hecker himself lived in the Dubiner house which is opposite the Spiral House. During the construction, he therefore kept an explicit control and changed the design several times during construction. The building was built in concrete, "with a facade of plaster, pink glass and stone fragments and corrugated tin."
Hecker described the building as a "miniature Tower of Babel"; Shmuel Grobstein, who participated in the design, said that it "looks like a storm passed through Ramat Gan, picking up all the wrecks from the roofs and yards, and created the spiral in one swoop."
Hecker won the Rechter Prize for architecture in 1999 for the Spiral House.
Hecker's daughter, Ella Zimmerman, lives in the Spiral House with her family.
Cableland

Cableland is the official residence of the mayor of Denver, Colorado. To date, no Denver mayor has ever lived in the mansion. It is made available for use to certain non-profit organizations for special events and fundraising purposes.
It was donated, along with a $4 million endowment, to the City and County of Denver by cable television mogul Bill Daniels in 1998. He died in 2000.
The mansion originally had many unusual features such as a fire pole down the center of a spiral staircase leading to the master bedroom, elephant sculptures, and a pink piano. In 2012, the mansion received a major remodel to modernize the decor.
The mansion was built on land subdivided from the original grounds of the Shangri-La mansion built by Harry E. Huffman in 1937.

Wat Sam Phran

Wat Sam Phran (Thai: วัดสามพราน, pronounced [wát sǎːm pʰrāːn]) is a Buddhist temple (wat) in Amphoe Sam Phran, Nakhon Pathom province, around 40 kilometers to the west of Bangkok. The temple was officially registered in 1985. In English, the wat is sometimes referred to as the "Dragon Temple".
The temple is notable for its 17-story tall pink cylindrical building with a gigantic red-and-green dragon sculpture curling around the entire height. The interior of the dragon feature is hollow and contains a spiraling flight of stairs, which has however deteriorated to a poor condition in places. It also contains a huge Buddha statue as well as many additional Buddhist statues. The Wat Samphran is 80 meters high because Buddha died at the age of 80 years old.
The temple is open for visitors from 6 am to 6 pm every day. An 80-baht entry donation is suggested to help with upkeep of the place.
The dragon that encompasses the building from the bottom to the top symbolises a human's journey from sorrow to happiness and from hell to heaven. According to a Thai story, Phaya Naga (a serpent), was declined spiritual power by Buddha. The serpent then approached Buddha for ordinance by assuming a human form and was permitted to be a monk who wore white, unlike the other monks who wore yellow.
At the footsteps of the main building are seven small shrines dedicated to Buddha for each day of the week. The seventeen floors signify the heavenly realms that one reaches in the afterlife based on the strength and quality of their past karma. Making a wish before climbing up the temple through the dragon belly is considered to bring good fortune.
Several of the temple's clergy were involved in a sexual assault scandal that resulted in long prison sentences in 2004.

圣淘沙捷运

聖淘沙捷運（英語：Sentosa Express）是一條連接新加坡主島港灣至聖淘沙的單軌列車。聖淘沙捷運以1.4億新元興建以取代舊的聖淘沙單軌列車。工程於2003年6月開工，2006年12月完工。聖淘沙捷運全長2.1公里，共設4座車站，全線高架，於2007年1月15日通車。聖淘沙捷運由聖淘沙發展局（英语：Sentosa Development Corporation）營運。
2002年6月，聖淘沙發展局（英语：Sentosa Development Corporation）與日立亞洲簽訂了一項價值7800萬新元的合同，以建造聖淘沙捷运，用來取代聖淘沙單軌列車，不同於其前身環島行駛，聖淘沙捷运當時計劃過海至新加坡主島並與東北線轉乘。
聖淘沙捷運於2003年6月開始興建，經過歷時三年半建設，於2006年12月完工，共耗資了1.4億新元。島上其中兩個車站（英比奧站和海灘站）與新加坡主島的怡豐城站於2007年1月15日一起開通，該站已融入新的怡豐城購物中心。
第三站海濱坊計劃與當時正在開發的綜合度假勝地聖淘沙名勝世界同步開放，但在一年後的2008年1月被拆除以進行重建。聖淘沙休閒集團的一位發言人表示，該站是在綜合度假村的計劃最終確定之前建造的。最終該車站於2010年2月1日開放，作為整個度假區分階段開放的一部分。
為滿足客量增長，聖淘沙發展局於2014年11月向日立亞洲授予了價值3,000萬新元的升級合同，當中包括將升級信號系統以提升通訊式列車控制，並增加另外兩列列車，於2017年底投入服務。
车站耗资2千6百万新加坡元建设，与怡豐城站不同的是，线上其他三站不设空调，也是新加坡首個设置月台閘門的车站（當時新加坡其他车站均使用月台幕門），同時設有電動扶梯和升降機供乘客上下。
只在怡豐城站設收費閘。收取4新加坡元。包含入場費。
圣淘沙名胜世界

圣淘沙名胜世界是一個位於新加坡聖淘沙岛的「综合度假村」(即以其中赌场作生意核心的「度假村」)，不但设賭場和宾馆，又有遊樂設施——新加坡環球影城、S.E.A. 海洋館、水上探險樂園、海豚園、兒童俱樂部、皇家信天翁及特麗愛 3D 美術館。项目耗资65.9亿新元，占地49公顷，由马来西亚的云顶集团兴建发展，於2010年初開幕，由雲頂新加坡有限公司管理。
在2012年4月，澳大利亚律师Adesh Kumar Goel在圣淘沙名胜世界赌钱时，跟其他赌客有点争执，赌场保安处理时，粗暴对待，把他关进个房间里超过一小时，又打至骨裂，Goel向新加坡高等法院控告赌场，获胜，在2015年11月，被判得新加坡元$45,915.74的赔偿。
圣淘沙单轨列车

圣淘沙单轨列车（英语：Sentosa Monorail）是一座位于新加坡圣淘沙的单轨铁路系统。圣淘沙当局建设这座单轨铁路系統的目的是为了应付旅客人数大增而产生的交通需求，以及便利岛内交通。单轨铁道的兴建计划初见于1979年，至1982年落成通车，其后亦曾增设车站。这座由瑞士公司建造的铁道最终由于过时等种种原因而在2005年停止运作，并由圣淘沙捷运取代。其后单轨铁道铁轨多被拆除，而大多数车站都得以保留，另作其他用途。
建设圣淘沙单轨铁道的计划可以追溯到1979年。由于圣淘沙岛游客在此前几年大幅增加，圣淘沙发展局（英语：Sentosa Development Corporation）计划兴建一条环岛单轨铁道，使岛内交通更为便利，并取代自1975年起运作的双层巴士。次年2月，圣淘沙发展局和瑞士的赫栢格公司（Habegger Thun，缆车部后与丰罗集团（英语：Von Roll Holdings）合并）签署总值1050万新加坡元的单轨铁道工程合同，而当地一家工程公司则负责为单轨铁道进行建筑、土木工程。工程地盘的勘察工作随即展开。
当年7月20日，单轨铁道正式动工。当时圣淘沙发展局预计单轨铁道可在当年9月完成首项工程，并于1981年9月落成。虽然单轨铁路的建设速度已在1981年中加快，但是仍然未能如期竣工，预计通车日期更一度推迟到翌年4月。
圣淘沙单轨列车本来定于1982年农历新年通车，不过由于技术问题，最后延至2月23日通车。单轨铁道最终建造成本达到1600万元。通车初期，单轨列车系统仅设一站（位于原渡轮码头附近的总站，即桥门站），列车从总站出发，环行一周后再返回总站。圣淘沙发展局在当年2月、3月举行文艺表演，以庆祝单轨列车通车。另外4个单轨列车站在当年12月1日启用，而正式通车仪式则在1983年1月2日举行，由时任贸易及工业部部长陈庆炎主礼。
其后，渡船大厦站在1987年与新渡船码头一同启用，而海底世界站则在1991年海底世界（英语：Underwater World, Singapore）开幕时通车。单轨铁路又于1994年进行转向工程，此后列车往西开行，以减少乘客的乘车时间；车站编号亦因此而有所变动。
自1990年起，圣淘沙发展局已经有意提升单轨列车系统。最终，当局发现原有的单轨系统过时、载客量低、难以维护、无法安装空调，而旅客会在搭乘单轨列车时感到不舒适。早在1994年，圣淘沙发展局便已经提出要以新式单轨列车取代原有的单轨列车，而圣淘沙捷运的兴建则令这个计划得以实行。单轨铁道在2005年3月15日停止运作，并由圣淘沙捷运取代。拆卸单轨铁道的工程由一家新加坡工程商负责，成本40万元，该工程商表示会把某些列车和轨道卖出去，其余当作废物弃置；并称印度、菲律宾和柬埔寨均有愿意购入这些车辆、轨道的个体。单轨铁道的铁轨多被拆除，余下一段位于缆车站和巴拉旺站之间的路轨（现为自然漫步径）；有2座单轨列车站在兴建圣淘沙名胜世界的时候被拆，而其余5座车站则改为餐馆和旅游景点。
圣淘沙单轨铁道按地形兴建，全长6.1公里，路轨高约3至6米不等，并设有不少U形弯位。游客可在搭乘单轨列车期间，观看圣淘沙和新加坡市区的风景名胜。本来圣淘沙发展局有计划把单轨铁道延伸到位于圣淘沙岛东部的珊瑚馆，不过后来当局认为这个计划不经济，于是放弃这个计划。
单轨铁道设有7座车站，如下：
圣淘沙所有单轨列车都是从瑞士运送到来的。通车初期，圣淘沙单轨铁道共有9列列车，一列列车全长32公尺，共设有15节车厢，可载客90人，即每个车厢可以承载6名搭客。每一列列车的车头都设有引擎控制室，用以带动整列列车，而列车里各个车厢都是互通的。列车时速13.7公里，35分钟走完一圈。部分圣淘沙巴士司机接受培训后，担任单轨列车的司机。列车设有介绍岛内风景名胜的华、英双语广播。1984年初，圣淘沙发展局又增购4列列车，使单轨列车的数量增至13列，直至2005年为止。2005年，圣淘沙每一列单轨列车均设有6—7节车厢。
通车初期，已有批评指出，由于圣淘沙当局采购的单轨系统不切合当地需要，因此出现了单轨列车车速过慢、缺乏空调系统的现象。这些缺点最终成为圣淘沙当局拆卸单轨铁道的原因之一，不过报纸上曾有意见指出，搭乘单轨列车有如置身田园，可以从容观看圣淘沙的景色。此外，《南洋商报》亦曾有读者批评列车的车窗没有扣锁，有可能酿成意外；为此圣淘沙发展局曾出面澄清，表示这种车窗“基本上应该十分安全”。
通车初期，圣淘沙当局推出单轨列车票价优惠，当时不论大小，车费均为1.5元，而当局亦曾再三延长票价优惠期限。至同年12月1日，圣淘沙门票加价，而单轨列车票价也从当日开始，计入门票票价。
嘉佩乐酒店

嘉佩乐酒店（英語：Capella Resort Singapore），是一座坐落在新加坡圣淘沙岛30英畝（12公頃）的土地上的豪华度假村。它拥有112间由英国建筑师诺曼·福斯特设计的庄园、套房和客房。酒店由庞蒂亚克置地开发，于2009年3月正式开业。嘉佩乐酒店的长期住宿部“The Club at Capella Singapore”设有81间服务式公寓、顶层公寓和庄园。
嘉佩乐酒店于2009年开业，由福斯特建築事務所与缔博建筑师事务所（英語：DP Architects Pte Ltd）合作设计。该建筑将两座建于1880年代的丹那美拉军事建筑与一座新酒店、别墅、活动空间和水疗中心融为一体。
长成控股是嘉佩乐酒店的建筑和土木承包商，千禧国际酒店集团则是其客户。
2018年朝美峰会于2018年6月12日新加坡标准时间上午9时04分在该酒店举行。
新加坡宣布与特金会相关的几个地点将被指定为“特别活动区”，并由两国领导人自己的个人安全团队、新加坡精英警察部队和新加坡辜加警察团保护。

莘庄镇

莘庄镇是中国上海市闵行区下辖的一个镇，也是闵行区政府驻地。闵行区政府自称该镇在地理位置上是“上海的中心”。
该镇面积19.12平方公里，户籍人口14.47万人（2008年）。由于上海轨道交通1号线终点设在莘庄，使得该地在地铁一号线开通之后迅速发展起来。
莘庄镇因跨莘溪而得名。莘庄地区在南朝（公元420年－589年）已有墓葬，成陆年代当在六世纪以前。
南宋度宗咸淳年间（1265年-1274年），镇上已建有施水庵，俗称草庵。施水庵原在镇南南栅口以南约200米处，光绪三十四年（1908年）建筑沪杭铁路，南栅口外设莘庄车站，庵址首当其冲，经镇上绅商同意，旋将施水庵南迁1公里，与春申庵合并。现两庵均湮没，迄今已历七百多年。
莘庄自南宋至民国二年（1913年）一直隶属于华亭县。民国元年（1912年）华亭、娄县两县合并为华亭县。民国三年（1914年），华亭县改称松江县，莘庄仍隶属松江县。民国十七年（1928年）设镇。民国三十五年（1946年）划归上海市第二十六区，龙华区。翌年1月，取消序数区名。1949年5月15日莘庄解放，由松江县接管，设立莘庄乡人民政府，同年9月复属上海市龙华区。1951年7月，莘庄乡分两乡（莘北、莘南）一镇（莘庄镇）。1956年2月，两乡一镇又并为莘庄乡。1956年3月，上海市龙华区与新泾、真如两区合并为西郊区。1958年8月15日撤销西郊区，莘庄乡被并入上海县。同年9月21日，成立七一人民公社，莘庄乡编为第三大队。1961年8月，第三大队及第二大队部份地区从七一人民公社划出，组成莘庄人民公社。1960年12月成为上海县县治。1965年，建立莘庄城镇工作组。1966年5月经国务院批准，莘庄镇为县属城镇，脱离公社，成立莘庄镇人民委员会。1992年6月，上海县和闵行区合并为新的闵行区，莘庄为区政府驻地。
1999年4月15日，大韩航空货运6316号班机从上海虹桥国际机场起飞后不久即坠毁于莘庄镇沁园春小区建筑工地里，造成机上全部3人和地面5人遇难，地面上另有42人受伤。
莘庄镇内有52个居民委员会及2个村委会：
东街社区、​西街社区、​莘松一村社区、​莘松三村社区、​莘松四村社区、​莘松五村社区、​莘松九村社区、​绿梅一村社区、​绿梅二村社区、​绿梅三村社区、​水清一村社区、​水清三村社区、​报春第一社区、​报春第二社区、​佳佳花园社区、​黎安新村第一社区、​黎安新村第二社区、​西湖苑社区、​沁春园二村社区、​新梅花苑社区、​绿世界社区、​星丰苑社区、​莘南花苑社区、​莘城公寓社区、​团结花苑社区、​宝安新苑社区、​新申花城社区、​众众家园社区、​莘城苑社区、​丽华公寓社区、​圣淘沙花园社区、​莘纪苑社区、​新梅广场社区、​虹莘新村社区、​春申新村社区、​香树丽舍社区、​沁春园一村社区、​西环新村社区、​世纪名门社区、​名都新城社区、​阳明花苑社区、​康城第一社区、​世纪阳光园社区、​春申复地城社区、​春申万科城社区、​东苑新天地社区、​东苑利华苑社区、​沁春园第三社区、​都市星城社区、​上海康城第二社区、​邻里苑社区、​康城第三社区、​康城第四社区、​莘东两湾苑社区和​青春村。
满江红

滿江紅•寫懷为一词牌名，此调为双调93字，前阕4仄韵，后阙5仄韵，前阕5、6句、后阕7、8句要对仗。后阕3字4字也可对仗。
其中最著名的一首為宋朝名將岳飛所作；此詞是否為岳飛作，未有定論。一說為明人假借岳飛之名而作。亦有不少人如余嘉錫和夏承燾等懷疑作者另有其人，因明朝初未有此詞流行及賀蘭山當時在西夏境內。而宋遼金史專家鄧廣銘與王曾瑜、李安等則考據岳飛確有作《滿江紅》。王克等人認為詞中賀蘭山指河北西路磁州賀蘭山，正於對金戰場。
中仄平平，平中仄、中平中仄。 中中仄、中平平仄，仄平中仄。 中仄中平平仄仄，中平中仄平平仄。 仄中平、中仄仄平平，平平仄。

《滿江紅·懷子由作》
清潁東流，愁目斷、孤帆明滅。 宦遊處、青山白浪、萬重千疊。 孤負當年林下意，對牀夜雨聽蕭瑟。 恨此生、長向別離中，添華髮。
一尊酒，黃河側。無限事，從頭說。 相看恍如昨，許多年月。 衣上舊痕餘苦淚，眉間喜氣添黃色。便與君、池上覓殘春，花如雪。
抬望眼，仰天長嘯，壯懷激烈。
莫等閒/閑、白了少年頭，空悲切。
駕長車，踏破賀蘭山缺。
待從頭、收拾舊山河，朝天闕。
想當年、花遮柳護，鳳樓龍閣。
到而今、鐵騎滿郊畿，風塵惡。
嘆江山如故，千村寥落。
卻歸來、再續漢陽遊，騎黃鶴。
最苦是，姚黃一朵，移根仙闕。
聽行宮，半夜雨淋鈴，聲聲歇。
想男兒慷慨，嚼穿齦血。
算妾身，不愿似天家，金甌缺。
相思處、青年如夢，乘鸞仙闕。
最无端蕉影上窗紗，青燈歇。
向南陽阡上，滿襟清血。
笑樂昌一段好風流，菱花缺。
驀驀地，杜鵑啼血，棠梨開早。
嘆年年春色倍還人，誰年少！
禁三千白髮，鏡花虛照。
想當時羅綺少年場，生春草。
長凝佇，青驄有影，章台無路。
訪城西、惟有畫簷蛛，絲如故。
奈綠陰滿徑，乍逢崔護。
想雕欄、不追卻沾泥，言還齼。
夜雨翻江春浦漲，船頭鼓急風初熟。似當年、呼禹亂黃川，飛梭速。
笑人間、何處似尊前，添銀燭。

岳飛的《满江红》，曾被多位作曲家及歌手分別創作譜曲和演唱：
2009年亞洲青年運動會

第一屆亞洲青年運動會（英語：I Asian Youth Games）全球第一個以青年為構想而主辦的一個區域綜合性運動會，該屆運動會於2009年6月29日至7月7日在新加坡舉行。
2007年11月19日，新加坡成功申辦第一屆奧林匹克青年運動會。新加坡奧林匹克理事會在2008年4月3日假泰國曼谷舉行第52次執行委員會會議建議興辦以青年為構想的綜合性運動會；執委會其後通過有關動議；運動會將會作為第一屆奧林匹克青年運動會的試運轉的運動會。
由於是屆運動會是作為第一屆奧林匹克青年運動會的試運轉，因此有關的籌備工作均和該屆運動會大概相同。

花芭山缆车

花芭山缆车（英語：Singapore Cable Car）提供了一个纜車系統連接度假岛圣淘沙和新加坡岛的麥嘉華山，並橫越吉宝港。它在1974年2月15日開放，这是全世界第一架跨海港的空索道系统。 然而，这不是第一架空索道系统以跨越水道；早于1964年，位于日本淡岛Kaijō索道，已經橫越了较短的海峡以連接一个岛屿。 虽然其经营者称它是一个缆车，此系统实际上是一个双线缆车系統并不是架空索道系統。在2012年的往返票價，每個成年人要29新加坡元，而每個儿童要18新加坡元。在2018年，花芭山纜車營運公司之網站顯示，花芭山線線加聖淘沙線纜車之套票（可參觀花芭山，並可在聖淘沙島內乘搭纜車），成人售價為33新加坡元，兒童售價為22新加坡元。
新加坡政府在1968年提出了以索道連接聖淘沙與麥嘉華山，作爲国家总体规划的旅游项目的一部分。 在1972年，耗資5.8百万新加坡元的花芭山缆车开始興建，并在1974年2月15日由当时的副总理吴庆瑞博士开幕。
花芭山缆车系统有43个通过舱服务员手动开启和关闭的大门的車廂。 在1976年，車廂增加到51个。 在七十年代末開拍的檀島警騎在此取景，而世界上第一个大规模的缆车婚礼上是在1970年代后期引入的。
在1988年，花芭山缆车庆祝了它第10万個游客的出現。 在新加坡举行的1989年世界小姐选美，以及1990年的东南亚运动会，它也发挥了很大的作用。
花芭山缆车系统的車廂在1994年以超过11亿新加坡元予以替换。新的車廂总共80個，并有效地增加一倍的效率（从每小时700名乘客升級至每小时1400名乘客）。升级于25日内完成，在此期间，花芭山缆车暂停运作。
在1995年，花芭山缆车迎接了2千万個游客，并在1997年迅速升至二千五百万個游客。同年，樂高製作了世界上唯一真人大小的缆车車廂，而它是基于新加坡缆车的设计。
在1999年11月，花芭山缆车成爲世界上第一个有玻璃底舱的缆车系統，每一个缆车車廂耗费3万新加坡元。 在2000年，花芭山缆车系统買入了多6個这些受欢迎的車廂，令花芭山缆车系统总共81个缆车。
在2009年9月14日，耗資三千六百万新加坡元的升级开始，并重新在2010年7月21日開放。 所有的車廂现在是黑色金属汽车与铬调整，當中有67個更大的車廂，包括世界上第一个七星級贵宾舱。两根电缆延長了30米，以令更大的車廂可以置身于120米以上的海平面。座位也从六个改爲八個。还有新的摺叠座位和新的音乐系统。
島內纜車聖淘沙線於2015年7月14日開放，長890米，建造成本7800萬新加坡元。由於新線建成，舊線改稱「花芭山線」。由於兩線並無連接，因此遊客需要步行3到5分鐘，從原來的聖淘沙站步行至Imbiah Lookout站。新線連接西索羅角站（Siloso Point）和魚尾獅站（Merlion station），魚尾獅站也提供了與圣淘沙捷运（Sentosa Express）的連接。新線擁有51架八座位缆車，每小時單一方向可接載約2200人。
拉美士

拉美士（馬來語：Labis）是马来西亚昔加末县第二大城镇和副县，拥有45,304人口。拉美士是一个农业城镇，主要出口橡胶。
拉美士始于一个名為甘榜巴耶美拉（Kampung Payah Merah）的小村庄。其名字源於河龟最喜欢的一种河草类植物。據說在20世纪初，英国军官来到村庄展开调察，并寻找将在昔加末县开发的新领域。
英国军官对于他们前所未闻前所未见的河龟（labi-labi）感到惊奇万分。他们询问村民这些动物的名称，村民回答说：“拉比，拉比，团”（河龟，先生）。因为他们不知道这些动物的名字，英国军官称这些复数形式为labis。因此，英国军官决定把这个地方命名为Labis。
此外，拉美士的名字由來還有另一個說法，據說在17世纪，當马六甲王室的成员在旅行时途經此地時，他看到一件他感兴趣的东西，便把他的顾问叫来，问他那是什么，他告诉他说，“Habis？Habis？“。因此，不小心脱口而出的名字Labis这个名字。
拉美士邮区内共有15间小学和5间中学。

Sentosa Ferry Terminal

The Sentosa Ferry Terminal was a cruise terminal located on the island of Sentosa, Singapore. The cruise center was the first of its kind in the region. Built by the Sentosa Development Corporation in 1972, the terminal was the first of nine planned structures to be built on Sentosa. The terminal can cater maritime traffic to various parts of Indonesia, Batam, Karimun Jawa, Tanjungbalai, Penang and Malacca. The terminal building was completed in 1987, with the now-defunct Ferry Terminal Monorail Station located within the building. After the station closed in March 2005, the station interior was kept intact, and the old monorail tracks were covered up and left forgotten. With the then-future Resorts World Sentosa about to occupy the site in 2007, the structure was subsequently demolished to make way for its new occupant.
Due to lack of facilities at the now defunct Clifford Pier, the government planned to build a cruise center on an offshore island. Sentosa was picked as it will become a tourist destination and will be large enough to cater to the needs of people. Since the terminal's opening in the early 1970s, at least 9 million passengers pass through its operations. However, passenger traffic declined in the mid-1990s when a small causeway (Sentosa Gateway) was built to connect the island to mainland Singapore. The Ferry Terminal Monorail Station once served visitors to the western half of the island, until Sentosa Monorail closed down in 2005. By the start of the early 2000s, it had become clear to locals and foreigners that with the decline of passenger traffic, the ferry terminal was losing its purpose.
The Ferry Terminal which was alongside the famous Sentosa Musical Fountain and Fountain Gardens, were demolished on 26 March 2007. The demolishing ceremony was witnessed by prime minister Lee Hsien Loong, the media, and people from all walks of life. Today, Resorts World Sentosa stands on the demolished section of Imbiah Lookout, with the Crane Dance performance now standing close to where the ferry terminal once stood.
After the demolition of the ferry terminal, the government later built another cruise center, the Marina South Pier. It was eventually replaced by the International Cruise Terminal in the second quarter of 2012.
Pulau Palawan

Pulau Palawan, also known as Palawan Island, is a slipper-shaped islet located just off the southwestern coast of Sentosa, south of Singapore. It lies approximately opposite Beach Station of the Sentosa Express monorail system, which is between Siloso Beach and Palawan Beach. Palawan is most likely a variant of the Malay word pahlawan, meaning "hero" or "warrior".
Originally a reef known as Serembu Palawan, and marked on at least one map as "Palawan Reef", it was renamed Pulau Palawan after land reclamation. The island now has an area similar to that of Pulau Biola, about 0.4 hectares (0.99 acres).
Pulau Palawan is not to be confused with a U-shaped artificial sandy islet - named "Palawan Island" on some maps - off Sentosa's Palawan Beach. This islet is linked to Palawan Beach by a simple suspension bridge. It has two lookout towers, and there is a sign on the islet erected by the Sentosa Development Corporation declaring that it is the "southernmost point of Continental Asia". This may be disputed on the ground that the islet is not part of Continental Asia, as it is only linked to Sentosa by a bridge. (Sentosa itself is connected to the main island of Singapore by a causeway, and Singapore is in turn linked to Peninsular Malaysia by a causeway. In addition, another beach on Sentosa called Tanjong Beach is further south than the islet.)
Sentosa Cove

Sentosa Cove is a residential enclave in the eastern part of Sentosa Island in Singapore, which is planned to include about 2,500 units when fully expanded. It is largely made up of reclaimed land. The master developer of the site was Sentosa Cove Pte. Ltd., a subsidiary of Sentosa Development Corporation, which purchased the site from the Singapore Land Authority for about S$800 million.
About 60% of property buyers in Sentosa Cove are foreigners. It is the only place in Singapore where foreigners are allowed to purchase landed homes. All residential properties in Sentosa Cove are leasehold titles subject to a 99-year lease.
There are multiple attractions found in the Sentosa Cove enclave, including hotels and F&B outlets.
There is a wide variety of food and beverage options available at Sentosa Cove, notably along Quayside Isle, the enclave's upscale waterfront shopping centre. This includes:
