ForSight Vision5 raised $15 million in a Series C financing and completed enrollment of a Phase II clinical study to support the development of its noninvasive ocular implant therapy for eye diseases.
H.I.G. BioVentures led the round, and previous investors such as Morgenthaler Ventures, Versant Ventures and Technology Partners also contributed funding. ForSight plans on using the funds to develop its Helios eye insert and other products for glaucoma, dry eye and allergy, the company said in a statement.
"I am thrilled to have the support of H.I.G. BioVentures and our returning investors as we continue to advance our Helios insert and other product candidates through major technical and clinical milestones," ForSight CEO John Maroney said in a statement. "Our investors have shown deep confidence in our team and programs with this level of commitment."
The California-based company also completed enrollment of more than 160 subjects in a randomized, active controlled Phase II study of its Helios insert for patients with glaucoma and ocular hypertension. The insert rests on the surface of the eye under the eyelids and slowly releases medication. More than 2.7 million patients in the U.S. have open-angle glaucoma, and the population is expected to exceed 4 million patients by 2030, according to data on the company's website.
ForSight's ocular insert could provide an alternative to traditional treatment methods and address a broader spectrum of chronic eye diseases, Professor James Brandt, the study's lead investigator, said in a statement.
ForSight is not the only company eyeing the ocular implant market. Liquidia Technologies launched in 2013 with a $25 million Series A funding round to develop an extended-release glaucoma treatment that could last for several months after one injection. Earlier this year, Irvine, CA-based Ivantis completed a $46.5 million round to fund an ongoing pivotal trial of its Hydrus Microstent, an eyelash-sized insert that helps relieve intraocular pressure.
Companies across the pond are also developing their own intraocular products. In November 2013, Belgian medical device startup iSTAR Medical SA raised $5.4 million in Series A financing to back further clinical studies of its ophthalmic implant for glaucoma. Australian medical device maker PolyActiva secured $9.5 million in a Series B round to develop its drug-coated intraocular implants to treat glaucoma and other severe eye infections.

A man was handcuffed on 23rd of April at the metro station Florenc. The reason that he got handcuffed was that he failed to show his ID, so the police took him down put handcuffs on him and started to be aggressive.
"The man was very scared and he was shouting for help, that's why I started recording and wanted to help", said one of the witnesses.
All you can see in the video is the man being taken down and handcuffed but unfortunately we cannot see what happened before.
If there are any other reasons why the police acted this way then they are unknown so far but they are now being investigated further by the authorities.

–I've had a couple of really rough days, so pardon this post's lateness.
–I'm still in Treatment Purgatory, which is what I'm referring to this so far month-long process of waiting for my new injections to be approved and sent my way. Then I get to play another waiting game while I wait to see if the new treatment actually helps. Why does this process take so long? Injections are very expensive, and my insurance has to authorize them before we can proceed, which means my doctor has to fill out tons of paperwork documenting my case, my test results, and all the failed therapies I've tried to get to this point. After the authorization the insurance company contacts my doctor with the go-ahead, and then my doctor has to fill out paperwork for financial assistance (again, because giving yourself injections every two weeks is really damned expensive), and once the assistance is (hopefully) accepted, then the doctor can go ahead and send the prescription to the pharmacy to be filled. At that point the pharmacy will contact me and overnight the injections to my house and the fun (i.e. stabbing myself in the stomach four times) can really begin.
–I have been making phone calls every day to check on the status of my prescription. I sometimes feel like I'm in a sick game of Keep Away with my doctor's office, the pharmacy, and my insurance company. Each time I call one of them, they tell me I need to contact the other to get on the status. It is so frustrating.
–I am at the end of my steroid dose, too, so I'm going to deteriorate even more rapidly if that medicine doesn't come soon. I've already begged my doctor for an extension of the steroids while I wait for the injections, but I'm–you guessed it!–waiting to hear back on that Rx, too.
–My sister-in-law Alana has created a wonderful weekly event in Modesto called Art In The Park, where you can bring your supplies and gather with friends to create art in the shade of the trees at Graceda Park. It's a wonderful event for all ages, and I'd love to go as soon as I'm up to it. For today's event she is partnering her art event with her brother's Bernie event and they are having Art In The Park for Bernie Sanders. There will be art, barbecue, and a Honk & Wave for Bernie. Bring your art supplies and enthusiasm and a donation for the barbecue! Let me know if you want more details!
–Earlier this week Anthony took Isobel to the Bernie Sanders rally in Stockton. She was so excited to go she woke me up at one in the morning and asked me if it was time to get ready to go yet. Since I couldn't go I obsessed over packing and preparing anything the two of them might need, from snacks to signs to a backpack full of goodies to entertain her during the drive and the wait. I even packed her Lisa Frank autograph book, just in case. Isobel wore her signature Pikachu hoodie, as she does every day, and sat on Anthony's shoulders, which made her really easy to pick out in the crowd. I spent the morning pouring over photos and videos of the event on social media, wishing I was there, and playing the Isobel's Pikachu hoodie version of Where's Waldo. The hoodie made her literally stand out in a crowd, and it was so exciting to spot her in the photos people were posting of the event. Stefanie even briefly saw her on TV! Watching it all happen on social media was the next best thing to being there. Isobel was not a fan of all the standing and waiting they had to do, but it was worth it because they were so close to the podium. Anthony said that if he didn't have Isobel with him he could have easily gone up the to the very front. They didn't stay for an autograph afterwards, unfortunately, because Isobel was done, but it was worth it because the next day at school when it was her turn for Sharing she got to tell her whole class she was on TV. It is our hope that attending events like this and being involved politically will turn Isobel into someone who votes, does what they can to make a difference, and become someone who thinks of themselves as a citizen of the world.
–This week I also took my cane out in public for the first time. Around the house I only use it when I'm in a lot of pain (usually toward the end of the day), but when I take it to events I use it mostly to prevent the pain from getting really bad. I was pretty nervous to use it in public. I wasn't sure how people would react. First I took it out to the Farmer's Market, something I wanted to do both to support the community and to celebrate Mother's Day. I did get a lot of stares, but they were mostly the curious and/or confused type; none of them were mean-spirited. And best of all, my legs weren't screaming in pain for the rest of the day. Later in the week it was time for Isobel's Open House, and I knew it would be a lot of walking and standing, but I was hesitant to bring the cane. She cried when she found out I needed one. Would she be embarrassed of me? Would she not want her friends to know? I mentioned just trying to use the stroller instead of using the cane and she said, "What? No, Mom. You need to bring the cane. It's for your own good!" It wasn't a big deal for her at all, and none of her classmates seemed to care, either. I got more stares and questions from parents, but I didn't mind. I was just so proud of Isobel.
–The cane does make the invisible much more visible, so I've been talking with a lot of people about my disease. I'm literally doing it in my sleep, as last night I was explaining Crohn's disease to someone in a dream.
–Anthony hosted a canvassing event, and one of the volunteers sees our D20 dice ball on the table as she's leaving and shouts WAIT YOU GUYS ARE NERDS TOO??
–My Mother's Day was great. We saw both our Moms and Anthony took me by one of my favorite thrift stores where we found a Caboodles for Isobel. She had never heard of them before but instinctively knew she needed it the moment she saw it, as Caboodles is coded into our DNA. My Mom thinks she knows where my old Caboodles is, so hopefully we will be reunited soon. I watched Ponyo with the kids (an excellent pick for Mother's Day with the abundance of kickass moms and mother-figures), and Anthony gave me a massage. I got treats from my favorite bakery and Isobel gave me the sweetest card.

Mansi Ghuwalewalla can help you with this one:
"When we leapt off our rickshaw (10 Rs. per head from the Karjat naka) at the turn for Kalote on the Mumbai-Pune highway, our expectations were quite moderate. We just wanted to find a relatively less crowded lake among the many that dot the Western Ghats during monsoon. Only, there was more in store.
As we followed two headloading village women and a mildly inebriated old man on a short uphill walk, Kalote village slowly revealed itself to us – an almost-still settlement around a lake circled by lush hills and howling wind.
My friend and I exchanged a look that said, this is not a scene, it's a place. We were here to celebrate our
birthday, which falls on the same day. The whole thing felt symbolic in the way that it was just another day in this place. This place was itself everyday of its life. It just stayed there being this way. Anyway, our little 'getaway' had begun well.
A private property sat on an island in the lake. A couple of understated resorts, followed by a small village and a 'dabdaba' up ahead. The rest was all open spaces.
At the first resort, the lady (hands covered with flour) told us she had no rooms. Having had only ussal pav and chai at Karjat for breakfast, we were famished. At the next resort, Mrs. Khan sat on a swing, breaking coriander. She offered us a 'package' of Rs 1500 per head per day, with three meals. When we tried to bargain, she said, "the food is excellent" so matter of factly without as much as looking up from her dhaniya that I believed her. And good that I did. The food, simple and sumptuous, is just by the way in a place like this.
There's a lot to do in Kalote – walk around, look around, walk around, laze around and look at the lake. You can't go into it for a swim because that's where the drinking water for the village comes from. 'Dabdaba' is the Marathi word for waterfall, and it's your free, natural spa! The best part was walking barefoot to and into the waterfall and then becoming one of the rocks.
Well, that's what we did for a day and a half. So good.
Even the highway feels like a different place in the monsoon. Especially when you're in a rickshaw back into town and you know the air is going to smell its familiar smoky texture soon.

Tracy Stevens
San Diego Office
You know that moment when you feel perfectly at home in another country, enchanted by the mix of the strange and the familiar? I live for that moment. After nearly a decade planning African safaris, I'm delighted to return to Europe, my former home and first love.
Brought up in the UK, I went to school in Switzerland, spent summers in Spain and winters skiing in the Austrian Alps. I've been alone in the Sistine Chapel by candlelight, drunk Pilsner in Prague, and climbed the rubble of the Berlin Wall days after it came down.
If you want to know how to travel off the beaten path in Provence, sample la dolce vita on the Amalfi Coast, or play lord of the manor at your own castle in Scotland, I'm your girl. Wherever you roam, I'm passionate about creating unforgettable experiences that will help you see your world differently, if only for a week or two at a time. I look forward to crafting an extraordinary journey full of wonder and laughter that will remain with you forever.Tracy's blogs

Meet Tracy
What my guests have said
"Every concern and every need for expertise and advice was executed and tailored with such care. This was my second trip with Tracy and she always goes above and beyond. Thanks you for all of your hard work and for designing the perfect wedding and honeymoon for us!"
"I can only say that the thought and planning that went into our trip was executed with great care and regard to the multi-generations that were traveling. The result was truly a trip of a lifetime and one that none of us will ever forget. The fact that this was a dream of my late husband's only added an extra emotional dimension to the experience which will stay with us forever. Thank you, Tracy, for doing such an outstanding job."
"You're fantastic! Every detail, every experience, every minute felt like it was made just for us. Tracy, this was truly the trip of a lifetime. We came home with a new attitude and gratitude for all we've seen and done. Your expertise and care made this dream possible and we'll always be grateful."
"Tracy nailed it. The whole trip exceeded my expectations, even the recommendations for our nights in Zurich en route. It couldn't have been more perfect!"
"Tracy, where do I begin? Do I start with the fact that the Brenner family voted unanimously for you to be named MVP of the trip? Or how about you being the second person I called after getting off the airplane? (After my mother, of course.)"
"Tracy, we had a WONDERFUL time. Every day was better than the previous day. It's all too fresh in our minds to sort out exact details, but I have to say that every experience you arranged for us went off exactly as you told us it would and exceeded our expectations."
"I know we have Tracy to thank for this wonderful trip. She was amazing, patient and very helpful. I would recommend Tracy to one and all. I had wanted to do this for a very long time and I will always treasure this trip; it was a dream come true."
"Tracy was fantastic. Her attention to the details made this vacation unbelievable. I will always have wonderful memories of my trip."
"Tracy, I have to reiterate that this truly was the perfect trip. Throughout we applauded your insightful organization of the four stops on our itinerary, each one played off the other in such a fantastic way. It was such a well thought out and outstanding trip. I really do feel like a changed person. Thank you again for all your hard work on realizing this family dream."
"Tracy had so much first hand information that was very useful. We had access to Tracy whenever we needed her which was so helpful. She set up the best people to take care of us on our trip. From start to finish, we were looked after with no worries on our part."
Favourite places I've been
Travel nuggets
Get out from behind your camera. We all want great photos but when you only see a country's wonders through a viewfinder, you'll never get the full picture.
Go to St Paul de Vence, one of the prettiest villages in Provence.Have coffee at Café de la Place then lunch at La Colombe d'Or where works by Picasso, Miro and Rodin grace the walls. The artists used to swap their paintings for food.
Ask me about taking a private tour of St. Marks Basilica in Venice, a private terrace to view the famed Palio in Siena, and how to meet Limoncello makers in Amalfi.
Recent favorites: Riding Lusitano horses in Spain, stargazing in the Sahara and a private tram to explore Lisbon. Ask me how.
Slow down. Consider taking a train through Scotland or Ireland, or a floating barge in France. The scenery is unbeatable and the pace is made for relaxation.
Don't be afraid to ask. Whether it's a private shopping guide in Paris, an after hours visit to the Vatican, or a treasure hunt in Marrakech, with the right connections and a bit of planning, we can make your dreams comes true.
My hot picks
Aman Venice, Venice, Italy
Sublime style on the Grand Canal. As good as it gets.
Chevre d'Or, Nice, South of France, France
Perched on a cliff overlooking the Mediterranean, these may be the best views in the world.
Isle of Eriska Hotel, Oban, West coast Scotland, United Kingdom
A highland haven on a private island in beautiful Western Scotland. Great for families.
Six Senses Douro Valley, Douro Valley, Portugal
Charming villages, superb wine tasting, boating on the Douro River - France has met its match.

Smartron India is headed by Founder & Chairman Mahesh Lingareddy, who is also the Co-Founder and CEO of Soft Machines Inc., a US-based semiconductor company with operations in US, India, and Russia.
The company has been operating in stealth mode since August 2014, is set to launch a slew of smart devices and Internet of Things (IoT) products for consumer and enterprise markets in the first quarter of FY 2016-17.
The commercial launch of operations will take place on March 31, while the products will be available from April this year.
The firm is funded by Indian and global corporates, angel investors and financial institutions. In a recent interaction with ET, Lingareddy informed that a total of $100 million investment is going towards the venture.
"I have always been fascinated by technology. Smartron's founding vision for the need for a robust product ecosystem in the country to grow is very impressive. We need to support brands that are "designed and engineered in India" by our Entrepreneurs and Engineers that ably compete in the global markets. I look forward to being part of the growth journey of Smartron buoyed by tremendous growth opportunities offered by IoT worldwide," Tendulkar said.
Commenting on Tendulkar's association with the company, Lingareddy said, "We are very excited and privileged to have Sachin join us in our journey. He is one of the greatest Indian stories of our times, a true global icon and brand that disrupted the game of cricket, and inspired generations."
"We at Smartron aim to achieve the same in the technology space by building a global product brand from India, disrupting the IoT market with innovative products and inspiring generations of engineers and entrepreneurs," Lingareddy added.
Smartron is riding on the back of the IoT wave by innovating in the areas of smart, sensor, robotics, artificial intelligence, cloud and big data technologies. The company will bring next generation smart devices, services and care targeting consumer, enterprise, industrial and infrastructure markets.
Initially, the company plans to launch high-end 5 inch and 5.5 inch smartphones, along with hybrid Windows tablets. In the second half of 2016, the company will launch high-end ultrabooks and several IoT devices, including smart cameras, storage systems, bulbs, security devices with wireless router capabilities, smart bands and wireless chargers.
Smartron India recently tied up with Foxconn, the world's largest contract electronics manufacturer, to manufacture a range of smartphones, tablets, ultrabooks and Internet-of-Things (IoT) products.
However, the first lot of.products are getting done outside India. "Production trial will start in India very soon," Lingareddy said.
Smartron employs 100 people in India, while another 100 are involved in the venture through third-party hardware, component and software companiees.

A couple of months ago I took modelled as part of a fundraiser for the Canberra Endometriosis Centre at Blue Illusion. It was a great success - we raised $900! While the clothes aren't quite my usual style, I still ended up walking away with the blue pinstriped pants and the peach/white hat that you can see below. It was a great day - all of the models were endometriosis sufferers and a lot of the attendees were as well (or friends and family). It's great to have some community in what can sometimes be an isolating condition. It was pretty fun hamming it up on the "catwalk" as well.
Hopefully I'll find some time soon to tell you what else I've been up to - the last few months have been quite exciting with the Canberra Endometriosis Network!

text: December 19, 2015 | LerLer Chan | Leave a comment Let face the truth. One family member from Johor will work in Singapore in order to support the family. The lucrative Singapore dollar has drawn Johor's talent pool for better salary opportunity. While, family member that work in Malaysia need to learn to manage the income well in order to save more money. Image Credit: The Star This truth is proved by the recent traffic congestion at Woodland Causeway. However, it doesn't mean that with a Singapore dollar income can cover the living cost in Johor. With great power (income power) come great responsibility (car loan, house loan, living expenses and other). As a middle-income couple, the rising of living expenses is taking a toll on us. That is why, I will further discuss my last week topic on "Smart Saver". Image Credit: DailyFinance.com New mission after marriage is to save money. We spend our money wisely for everything. We did our research before we make our decision. For example power charger. Recently, my laptop's power charger was not functioning. I was checking around IT Mall and IT shops for the power charger price. Mostly sold at RM90++. In the end, I found the cheapest price at Lazada. It was sold RM45 during its 50% sale. That mean I saved RM40++ for my power charger. If you concern on the quality, I tested it out. The quality of the power charger is as good as written on the website. In conclusion, it will be good to compare before making any buying decision. Who know may be you can get the best deals on your online shopping?

Winter Took its Toll on the Achilles' Heel of American Railroads
CSX Corp. chief executive Michael Ward insisted today that the railroad operator is not running out of capacity, even as analysts questioned the continuing costs, delays and fallout from the great rail tie-ups and tangles of the first quarter.
"You don't build the church for Easter Sunday," Mr. Ward said in an interview after his first quarter earnings call. "We have plenty of capacity for all the growth you can foresee — but not for one of the coldest and snowiest winters in history."
Normally in Chicago, you have either cold winters or snowy winters, he told the analysts. "It's highly unusual the winter is both," he said. But in what has become a railroad mantra lately, he said there had been twenty-five significant snowfalls during the third coldest winter ever in Chicago this year. And Chicago happens to be the Achilles' Heel of the rail system — a major bottleneck where all the major railroads converge. Problems there have a "cascading impact" on the rest of the network, Mr. Ward said.
More on this after the jump…

Today is the 7th and final day of our Washi Week series. Wahhhh! 😦 😦 😦
We are so sad to be finishing up such a great week. We really have enjoyed the past few days crafting with you and designing new washi tape projects. We hope you've enjoyed it as much as we have!!
As the final day, we decided to make this post something extra special and adorable! This is a home decor essential; it adds a perfect touch of pizzazz to the room and you can customize it to match the colors in the room too! Ours matches the girls room pretty well and it is getting hung up right away!
To make a washi mirror you will need:
A mirror (preferably with a white base/frame), 2-6 washi tapes of your choice, a ruler, a pencil, and scissors. Lets begin!
To start, clean the base of your mirror so the tape sticks well (we cleaned our whole mirror while we were at it 😀 ). Take one of your washi tapes and put a strip on one side of the frame, right in the middle. Do the same to the other 3 sides. You can use your ruler to measure the mirror and find where is the exact center of each side (this makes it MUCH easier and it looks way neater!). Next, take a different washi and put a piece in the inside corner of the side you are working on, and then the other side with a different tape. Once you have all 3 tapes, go to one half between 2 of the strips and use your ruler to make 2 marks on the frame, both the same length apart. Take any 2 washis you like and lay a strip over each of the 2 marks. Do the same to the other half, making sure all the washi tape strips are the same distance apart. Once you have completed this side, repeat to the other 3 sides of the mirror.
If this mirror will be going in a bathroom, you will want to seal it in case the sink water splashes on it, or it gets steamy from a hot shower. You wouldn't want to ruin the tape!!
And that's it!! Super easy, quick, and it adds the perfect touch to the room. We almost died at how cute our washis work together on this mirror!!! ❤
If you want yours to be more eye-popping, you could put tape between and fill up the gaps we left on ours so that yours is completely washi'd. (We love how many verbs you can make from the word "washi") Veronica is very… conservative when it comes to washi tape; she hates wasting even the tiniest bit!!
So that wraps up our Washi Week! We really hope you enjoyed it and got to try out some of the crafts with us!! We had a blast sharing our favorite washi tape crafts with you and we hope to come up with many more; maybe in a month or two we will have enough to do a second Washi Week! 😀
Did you enjoy this week as much as we did? Did you make any of the crafts we shared? We'd LOVE to hear about it!! Let us know in the comments below! ❤

When New York's transportation commissioner, Janette Sadik-Khan, announced plans for the city's bike-sharing program at a 2011 press conference she called it "a fast, easy, affordable way to get around town."
So now that the program has kicked off with 6,000 cobalt-blue Citi Bikes at 300 locations south of 59th Street in Manhattan, and in parts of Brooklyn, how fast, easy and affordable is it?
For the purposes of this column, of course, affordable comes first. For annual members, who pay $95 plus tax ($60 plus tax in some discounted cases) for a year's worth of unlimited 45-minute rides, it's a good deal. It also can be fast: with all those stations a ride is often quicker than a subway-and-walk combination. "Easy" might be a stretch, but once local riders get used to the challenges of Manhattan cycling, I'll grant that to the commissioner as well.
But what about for tourists? On Sunday, the first day 24-hour and weekly access passes became available, I planned a day around the city to see if it would be fast, easy and affordable for a traveler new to the city.
The answer: not for everyone.
To be clear, I'm an unabashed fan of bike sharing and am overjoyed New York finally caught up with many European cities. I also had a great day — pedaling from Midtown to Murray's Bagels in the Village for breakfast, then down to the Staten Island Ferry terminal, up to Chinatown for lunch, over to the High Line for a stroll and then back to Midtown for some late-afternoon culture at MoMA. Fast? Yes. But it wasn't so easy, and it definitely was not cheap.
If you don't know how bike sharing works, it's pretty much the same around the world: Users pick up bikes at any station and can return it to any other within a specified time frame, often 30 minutes. (There's almost always a mapping app to find the nearest station.) They can do that as many times as they like, without additional charge, for the rest of the day or week or year. They can also keep the bike longer, but will be charged a bit more; the idea is to use the bikes as transportation, not sheer recreation.
But in New York, short-term users pay more — both overall and when compared with annual members — than in comparable cities elsewhere. In London, the daily pass is £2 ($3), about 2 percent the cost of an annual pass. In Paris, it's 1.70 euros ($2.15), 6 percent of an annual pass. In New York, it's $10.83, tax included, more than 10 percent the cost of a yearly membership.
Put another way, the cost of a day's biking in London or Paris is almost precisely the cost of a single subway trip; in New York it's about four times that amount. (The weekly pass is $25 plus tax, compared with £10 in London and 8 euros in Paris.)
Of course, the bikes aren't meant to be a replacement for the subway system, exactly: they're meant to supplement public transportation and to be enjoyable. But in London and Paris (and Brussels and Berlin and Toulouse, three other cities I've been to recently) they clearly save you money as well. That is not the case in New York. The weekly pass is a slightly better deal, but it won't replace a $30 weekly MetroCard: there are too many trips you can't make in 30 minutes, and the bikes don't yet extend north of 59th Street (think Central Park, the Metropolitan Museum, Harlem). Yearly members can take the bikes out for 45 minutes at a time; for daily or weekly members, it's 30 minutes. And the penalties for going beyond those time frames are steeper for nonsubscribers: $4 for an extra 30 minutes, instead of $2.50.
For those considering how this compares with renting a bike from a shop: An all-day rental, including helmet and lock, from Bike Rental NYC in Midtown is $32 with a reservation, $39 without — but of course that allows you to travel without time limits or geographical restrictions.
All that said, if you love biking, or if you will use the bikes to substitute for taxis rather than subways, then the deal doesn't sound quite as bad. So let's move on.
What about fast?
I'd say yes. They are fast. Not literally: the bikes are heavy, so you won't see program users careening down Broadway like crazed bike messengers. But assuming you've mapped out directions in advance, for just about any trip in a 20- to 25-block range, they beat the subway or bus. On all five routes I took, even when I got lost and took roundabout routes to use bike lanes, I never came close to the 30-minute limit, and always ended up within a two-minute walk of my destination — and sometimes right next to it, like at the High Line. The 15 or 20 minutes each trip took was almost certainly quicker than walk-subway-walk.
Finally, was it easy? Hey, this is New York: nothing is easy. And there are two learning curves for short-term users. First, the details of the system itself: how to pay, how to remove the bikes, how to plan within those 30-minute limits. But the real shock comes from simply biking on city streets. Despite great improvements in signage and bike lanes, New York is no Copenhagen or Berlin when it comes to biking. You'll need to get the hang of planning your routes to avoid potential pitfalls like the narrow streets of Chinatown, the jarring cobblestones of SoHo and the nightmarish avenues without bike lanes but with plenty of daredevil cabdrivers.
I made all those mistakes. For my first trip, from Fifth Avenue and 49th Street to Avenue of the Americas and 13th Street, I didn't plan my route beyond scouting out the nearby bike lanes on the neighborhood map posted at every Citi Bike station. Big mistake. I was befuddled almost immediately by a construction site near Times Square, and ended up biking down Seventh Avenue, perhaps the worst biking route in the city short of jumping from rooftop to rooftop. Taxis swerving to catch fares, trucks rumbling unpredictably, no bike signs at all — I felt a like a puffy dandelion seed head floating through a spray of machine gun fire.
From then on, I started using the city's bike map, which I had downloaded onto my smartphone. That was a slight improvement, though its PDF format is not mobile-friendly. The answer here is to use the HopStop app, which gives great biking directions. (Google Maps also offers bike directions, but not on its iPhone app.)
I will say that when I was in bike lanes — especially the bike corridors that are almost completely shielded from traffic — riding was, if not a joy, then as close an approximation to joy as you can have when a taxi could still illegally lurch in front of you at any moment.
So, should you use Citi Bikes on your trip to New York? Not if you're just trying to save money. And not if you don't want to pack a helmet: though I've used bike share programs without helmets in other cities — ones with far fewer taxis and far more dedicated bike lanes — I wouldn't do it in New York.
But for those planning longer stays, who are just a bit intrepid and for whom $27.19 isn't a burden, go for it. After a day or two, you'll find biking a useful and (mostly) pleasant way to get around the city, and seriously, those stations are everywhere. It's also great exercise in a city that can easily be fattening; I more than made up for the massive pumpernickel bagel with cream cheese, tomato and onion from Murray's and the street food I bought at a Chinatown festival. Finally, it could easily save you money on night life — by the time I was done with my five-leg trip, I was completely exhausted.

Cutting off debate and votes in Congress, especially in today's modern-now-a-go-go-world, where the most discussion of the President's plans for warfare have taken place after the Congress and the media has approved of those plans --- just makes little sense and serves the public not at all.
The recent stunt in the US Senate by the GOP minority to squelch a vote on Iraq War Funding is part of an ever growing trend in completely altering the way government operates. Used to be that the Senate would take a vote where the majority is all that was needed to send legislation to the President, which he could veto if he wished and the legislation would come back and more debate would occur.
Trying to "veto-proof" the vote in the Senate is the same as nullifying the role and presence of the Senate and pushes our country one step closer to rule by a single office holder.
A fascinating assessment of the trend to block votes indicates the current session of Congress is on track to triple the record of blocked votes. (via McClatchey):
"Nearly 1 in 6 roll-call votes in the Senate this year have been cloture votes. If this pace of blocking legislation continues, this 110th Congress will be on track to roughly triple the previous record number of cloture votes — 58 each in the two Congresses from 1999-2002, according to the Senate Historical Office."
Triple -- meaning as many as 153 blocked votes in the current trend.
Both parties have done this, no doubt, but the current GOP, including TN Senators Alexander and Corker, are in lock step with the party to shred the role the Senate is meant to play.

Main page / Territories / South Kamchatka Sanctuary / Unique Ecosystems / Kutkh's Boats
Kutkh's Boats (Bats) are a natural monument created from bizarrely exposed pumice located four kilometers from the source of the Ozernaya River (Kuril Lake). According to legend, the cliffs are boats (similar to Native American canoes) that the wise raven Kutkh once set to dry and then forgot ashore. The raven Kutkh was the main god of the Itelmen, an indigenous people of Kamchatka, and «bat» meant long boat. Literally translated, this site's name is «Boats of the god Kutkh». Indeed, the pumice looks very much like boats that are ready to return to water at the first signal from their master.
Stepan Petrovich Krashenennikov wrote about Kutkh's Boats thusly: «…nine versts from the heights of the Ozernaya River, there are white mountains, which appear not unlike shuttles set at angles with each other. The Cossacks call these stone baty, and pagans say that the god and creator of Kamchatka, Kutkh, lived there for some time and used stone canoes or baty to fish in the sea and lake. Before his departure, he arranged these stone shuttles. For this reason, natives hold the cliffs in such reverence that they fear to approach.»
The Kuril hot springs are located at the foot of the volcano on Kuril Lake's northern shore.
The volcano's perfect cone on the shore of Kuril Lake creates a unique landscape at any time of year.
Eleven of the twelve insect species listed in the Red Book of Kamchatka are found in the Kronotsky Reserve.

Here are some tips for working in Power View in Excel and in SharePoint, to help you create interactive views of data from data models in Excel workbooks or tabular models deployed to SQL Server 2012 Service Pack 1 (SP1) Analysis Services (SSAS) instances.
In this article
View a Power View report in SharePoint in reading and full-screen modes
"Sorry, we can't show your data because closely related fields are on different axes"
Create a Power View report
Power View in Excel
It's easy to start Power View in Microsoft Excel 2013.
In Excel on the Insert tab > Power View.
Read more about starting Power View in Excel 2013.
Power View in SharePoint
Launch Power View from a data model in an Excel (XLSX), shared data source (RSDS), or BISM connection (BISM) file in SharePoint Server 2013.
Models can be in a standard SharePoint Server 2013 document library or in a Power Pivot Gallery. The Power View design environment opens, and you see the view on which to place your visualizations.
Read more about Creating, Saving, Exporting, and Printing Power View Reports.
Fit a Power View report to the window
The Power View report sheet in Microsoft Excel (or view in SharePoint) is a fixed size, similar to a Microsoft Office PowerPoint slide, unlike other Excel worksheets.
By default, the sheet fits to the window and resizes as you open more panes. For example, if you show the Filters Area, the sheet shrinks to fit the remaining window. You can turn this off.
To stop the sheet from resizing to fit the window, clear the Fit to Window button.
Now you can scroll to view the different parts of the sheet.
Why are chart icons grayed out?
When an item on the ribbon is disabled (grayed out), it means that action isn't available for whatever you have selected in the sheet or view. For example, if a table has no aggregated numbers such as sums or averages, you cannot convert it to a chart, so all the chart icons will be disabled on the Design tab.
Add a numeric field to the table.
Read more about changing a sum to an average or other aggregate in Power View.
What do the icons in the Field List mean?
The pane to the right of the view is the field list.
The fields section in the top half displays the tables and fields in the data model that your Power View report is based on. These are the fields you have available to put in your report.
The lower half is the layout section. It displays field layout options for the visualization that you have selected in the view.
Fields in the fields section
Click a field and it is added to the view. If a visualization is selected in the view, then the new field is added to that visualization. If not, then the new field starts a new visualization in the view.
Or drag a field to the view. You can start a new table or add it to an existing table.
Table names
Expand the table name in the fields section to see the fields in that table.
Click the table name itself, Power View adds the table's default fields to the view. The default fields are defined in the data model that your report is based on.
Row label fields
∑ Aggregates in a table are the fields marked with a Sigma ∑ symbol. An aggregate is a numeric value that indicates the size, quantity, scale, importance, or extent of something. Aggregates are defined in the model your report is based on. You need at least one aggregate to create a chart visualization.
For more information, see Configure table behavior properties for Power View reports.
You can also use a non-aggregate field as an aggregate. For example, if you have a Product Name field, you could add it to a table and then set it to Count. See Change a sum to an average or other aggregate in Power View.
Calculated fields in a table are marked with a calculator symbol. These are sometimes called calculated measures. Each calculated field has its own formula created with DAX. You can't change the aggregate, for example, if it's a sum, it can only be a sum.
Read more about creating visualizations in Power View.
Layout section
Elements in the layout section vary depending on what kind of visualization you have selected in the view. For example, if you have selected a chart, you'll see fields in the Value, Axis, and Series boxes. Here are some actions you can take in the layout section:
Drag fields from the fields section of the field list to the boxes in the layout section. This adds them to the selected visualization in the view.
Delete fields from the layout section; this does not delete them from the model.
Change an aggregate in the layout section. By default, most aggregates are sums. You can permanently change the default aggregation using Power Pivot. Or, you can change the aggregation on a use-by-use basis by clicking the arrow next to the field name in the Values box, and then selecting Average, Minimum, Maximum, or Count.
Change a field that is not an aggregate into an aggregate. For more information, see Change a sum to an average or other aggregate in Power View.
Create a tile container. For example, if you have selected a chart, you can create tiles by dragging a field to the Tile by box. For more information, see Tiles in Power View.
Create multiples by dragging a field to either the vertical or horizontal multiples boxes in the layout section.
View a Power View report in SharePoint in reading and full-screen modes
In reading mode, the report takes up the whole browser. In full-screen mode, the report takes up the whole screen, as the name suggests, similar to a PowerPoint slide show. This is the mode to use when presenting with Power View.
On the Home tab > Reading Mode or Full Screen.
In both modes, the ribbon and field list are hidden, so the visualizations in the view have much more room. The Filters Area retains the state it had in design mode – if it is visible in design mode, then it is visible in reading or full-screen mode, too.
In reading and full-screen modes, move between the views in your report by using the arrow keys or clicking the multi-view icon in the lower left. You can interact with the report visualizations just as you can in design mode.
However, you can't edit the report in reading and full-screen modes – for example, you cannot move, resize, or delete visualizations, or copy, reorder, or delete views.
Press ESC to exit full-screen mode and go back to the mode you were last in, whether design or reading mode.
Overlapping and inset items on top of each other
Items in the view can overlap or completely cover each other. For example, you could inset a smaller chart on a larger one. To enhance the design experience, you can bring objects forward or all the way to the front, or backward or to the back.
Select a visualization on the design surface.
On the Design tab >
Bring Forward
Bring to Front
Send Backward
Send to Back
Tip: If one visualization is in front of the upper-right corner of another visualization, it may be hard to select the filter or popout icon for the visualization behind. Bring that visualization to the front to filter and then send it back again.
If you add a new visualization when the view is already full, Power View places it on top of existing items in the view.
Expand a visualization
All the visualizations have a 'pop-out' button in the upper-right corner. When you click it, the visualization appears to expand to fill the entire Power View view, or if you're in reading or full-screen mode, to fill the entire mode. This is only temporary. The rest of the report is still underneath, and when you click the pop-out icon again, the visualization returns to its spot in the report.
Note: Tiles don't have a pop-out button.
Resize a visualization
Visualizations resize automatically as you add new fields to the visualization. You can also manually resize them.
Select the visualization.
Hover your mouse pointer over one of the sizing handles of the visualization (a sizing handle appears when you hover over the middle of one of the dotted gray lines that surrounds the visualization). The mouse pointer changes to a double-headed arrow .
Drag the double-headed arrow to the size you want for the visualization.
Note: After you manually resize visualization it no longer resizes automatically to accommodate new fields. Instead, scroll bars appear so you can scroll the contents of the visualization. To return to auto-size mode, double-click on of the sizing handles.
One of the great things about designing in Power View is that you can undo almost anything you do. This frees you up to experiment and learn because you can always just undo it. You can undo multiple steps, in the order in which you did them.
Note: In Excel, Power View sheets have their own Undo and Redo buttons. They're the large forward and backward arrows on the Power View tab.
"Sorry, we can't show your data because closely related fields are on different axes"
You see this message in Power View if a visualization has the same field in more than one area—for example, in both the Axis and Legend areas.
If you're creating Power View reports in SharePoint (RDLX files) with a SQL Server Analysis Services multidimensional model, you may see this message even with different fields if they are "closely related" (if they share some key fields). This restriction is due to the addition of support for multidimensional models.
Solution 1: Remove the field
Remove the field from all but one of the areas. For example, if you have a column chart with the same field on both Axis and Legend, remove it from Legend, leaving it on Axis only.
Solution 2: Create a duplicate field in the data model
If you have access to the data model for the Power View report, create a copy of that field. For example, say you have a column chart with the field "Country" on both Axis and Legend. In the data model, create a calculated column with the formula "=[Country]", and name it "Country2". Then, in Power View, drag Country to Axis and Country2 to Legend.

Cat Saves Boy From Dog: Video a Game-Changer For Dog-Cat Rivalry?by Free Britney at .
Jeremy Triantafilo, 4, is lucky to be alive after being attacked by a dog who attacked and dragged him off of his bike, shaking his body across the driveway.
Fortunately, Hero Cat came to save the day, flying in from out of nowhere to slam the dog's body, causing it to release the boy before chasing the attacker off:
As this is happening, the little boy's mom, Erika, comes to check on him; the boy, his mom and cat eventually make their way into the house for safety.
The super cat belongs to Jeremy's family. Her name is Tara.
Thankfully, the little boy is safe and sound with just a few stitches in his leg; the dog belongs to a neighbor and is being monitored by Bakersfield Animal Control.
The dog, who escaped while his owner was opening a gate, and the cat whose daring rescue went viral have renewed a longstanding rivalry among animal lovers.
Critics frequently criticize cats as distant, selfish, clawing, emotionless creatures who lack any redeeming qualities, while dogs are "man's best friend."
This video would certainly seem to turn the tables on that rep.
Not surprisingly, because the Internet is made by/run by cats, Hero Cat has done more than save his young friend; he's become the poster cat for a species.
Also not surprisingly, dog defenders hit back with the valid point that most dogs simply don't act like that, and the animal may have suffered abuse itself.
Not to mention ... one awesome cat does not a species make.

"A la vida," says my small circle of friends, raising our cups of wine and pausing. The window behind me frames the jagged drop of one of the famous hills of Valparaíso, Chile, congested with vertically stacked, rainbow tin houses and a fairy-tale web of yellow streetlights that undulate down to the Pacific Ocean.
Though my friend's home is now remarkably clean and orderly, trash bags of fallen plaster, dust and broken plates are heaped together in the corner. The cracks in the walls suggest that the energy of the earth rose up and tried to claw its way through them, just as in most every building in the city. It's been several days now since the fifth-largest earthquake since 1900 ripped through this country. Only now, with the gradual restoration of cell phone service, electricity and Internet, we are beginning to understand what happenednot just to the horrifically mangled cities close to the epicenter but to ourselves.
If there is one constant in this country, it's humor. When I think of Chile, constant laughterthe dark, self-conscious Chilean witcomes to mind first. I was dancing in the second story of a bar when an earthquake considerably more powerful than the one that destroyed Haiti struck our city. The laughter died down for a maximum of two minutes, 90 seconds of which included shaking. So tonight, with our glasses raised and eyes locked, I expect someone to make a wisecrack about what we've been through. It doesn't happen. Our eyes lose focus. We all turn inward.
The spontaneous, heavy pause of this toast is startling: Patricio stares past his glass, probably reflecting on the uncle whose entire town was wiped out. Where his homeso many homesand the school one stood, there is nothing but sand.
Eric may be thinking of the grandmother who lost her house. I try not to worry about a friend from Concepción. Staring into the wine, I tell myself that of course she doesn't have Internet, and that's why she can't write to tell everybody she's OK. Still, I can't quiet the inner voice that repeats: "Where is Francisca, madre dios, dónde está La Pancha?"
But there is always another face to tragedy. In more extreme cases, it can create heroes, though there is something touching and perhaps even heroic to decency and kindness. When this miraculous city of lights was thrown into disorienting darkness, we threaded our way through dust, rubble and moonlight to a friend's house. I followed the sound of tambourine toward a night of dance and lilting Brazilian song. The warm hands of friends held mine in the dark or rested firmly on my shoulders or my waist, saying, "I am here for you." Even as the house's old wooden floors writhed like snakes in the aftershocks, I felt safe.
Glasses still raised, we pull ourselves back into the present. We look outward again and into each other's eyes. We see a deep joy borne of an appreciation that I have not known before. "A la vida!to life!" we say once more.
The glasses clink.
Former Chatham County resident Maqui Ortiz now lives in Chile. She checked in from a bus ride into Santiago.

The gallbladder wall's innermost surface is lined by a single layer of columnar cells with an apical brush border of microvilli, very similar to intestinal absorptive cells. Underneath the epithelia is an underlying lamina propria, muscularis, perimuscular layer and serosa. Unlike elsewhere in the intestinal tract, the gallbladder does not have a muscularis mucosae, and the muscular fibres are not arranged in distinct layers. In greater detail, the layers are:

Why We Rethink
For many young women who are busy building their careers and families, breast health may not exactly be top of mind. We strive to dispel the myth that breast cancer is strictly an "old lady disease," while taking some of the fear out of the conversation to bring breast health awareness to the forefront. Those who have been diagnosed with breast cancer may experience isolation as well as challenges with dating, sexuality, fertility, childcare, finances, employment and more.

Ala Moana Beach Park is located equidistant between Honolulu and Waikiki and consists of a large park and two beaches, Ala Moana Beach and Magic Island. Located on the Waikiki side of the park is the channel which enters the main harbor in Waikiki called the Ala Wai Boat Harbor. The park and its two beaches are actually located on a peninsula of land that for the most part was man-made. This turned out to be a great addition to the growing local and visitor populations just beginning to burgeon in the 1950's because of the ease of access to the park and its adjacent beaches from the metropolitan areas.
Ala Moana Beach is the larger of the two beaches and spans a distance of one-half a mile all toll. The beach is largely protected from the open ocean by an outside reef and on most days is calm and quite suitable for swimming, stand-up paddling or simply an ocean dip. Further out toward the reef areas there are spots that are good for surfing and boogie boarding but these should only be enjoyed by those accomplished in these sports. The sand entry at the beach makes this an easy place to get into the water and the calm waters often attract long-distance swimmers, many of which can be seen out for their morning swim on a daily basis. Ala Moana Beach is quite wide and offers a lot of area to lay-out upon and although it is not generally as crowded as the beaches in Waikiki proper, it does have its moments. The park located behind the beach is well used and enjoyed on a daily basis by locals and visitors alike. There is plenty of grass area for throwing a football or Frisbee and it is popular among local families on the weekends. Ala Moana Park is also the site of many festivals and public events during the year and has plenty of facilities for all to enjoy.
Magic Island (featured in the first photograph) is located at the end of the peninsula and has great views of Diamond Head and Waikiki. This is also a great place to watch the surfers at the multiple surf spots that surround the perimeters of the peninsula. The swimming area here is totally calm as the half-moon shaped beach is protected from the open ocean by a fortress of rocks and boulders. Breaks in the seawall allow water to come in and refresh the swimming area continuously and this is an excellent area for weak or beginner swimmers, children, or those just looking forward to a refreshing dip. Life Guards are on duty at both Ala Moana Beach and Magic Island Beach.
Please be advised that all beaches and ocean locations in Hawaii can be potentially dangerous including this location. Be completely aware of the ocean conditions prior to entering the water and of course, never turn your back on the ocean when you are on the shoreline. It should also be noted that all shorelines and beaches in Hawaii, including this one, can be frequented by sharks, jellyfish and other sea creatures which can provide potential harm to people entering the water.
Bellows Beach is one of the best beaches to be found along Oahu's south eastern shores. It is not particularly wide but it is very long and the quality of sand, although somewhat rougher, is comparable in color and cleanliness to beaches like Lani Kai.
There is no question that Hanauma Bay is an excellent place to snorkel. Unfortunately it, unlike any other snorkeling spot in the State of Hawaii, costs money for an admission charge and costs money for a parking fee.
Hukilau Beach in Laie on the north-eastern coastline of Oahu is a beach that in an odd way provides a tribute to the multicultural nature of the island of Oahu.
One of the few beaches that has the look and feel of old Oahu is Kahana Beach on Oahu's windward coastline. The fact that this beach is located in a section of the island that is normally simply a gateway for island visitors to pass by on their way to visit what are presumably more spectacular attractions is the saving grace of Kahana Beach Park.
Without question, the most popular beach on the windward side of Oahu is Kailua Beach, and with good reason. This large expanse of white sand beach is simply "drop-dead" gorgeous and is the perfect location for water sports and beach activities.
The Ko'Olina Resort area located on Oahu's west-facing coast boasts a total of four almost identical looking, side-by-side man-made lagoons. If you're an ocean purist and like your beaches created by the hand of nature, you're out of luck at these beaches.
Kualoa Beach Park is both a beach and a park with perhaps a heavier emphasis on being a park. The beach itself is extremely narrow having eroded over the years but the grass portion of the park is extremely wide.
Lanikai is a delightful and secluded "bedroom community" isolated from the windward town of Kailua by a ridge that allows access to the coastal homes only through one entry point.
Makapu'u Beach is one of the most beautiful beaches to be found on Oahu. It is located at the very eastern tip of the island at the base of tremendous sea cliffs providing a spectacular back drop.
You know it's a big wave when the sand you're sitting on at the beach shakes like an earthquake when the waves pound the shoreline. Welcome to the "Bonzai Pipeline" at famous Ehukai Beach on Oahu's North Shore.
Forgive me for this but the following descriptions regarding Sandy Beach on the south shore of Oahu may to seem a bit more like a "rant" than a description of a beach.
Sans Souci Beach is a small but beautiful beach with a big history. This lovely white sand beach is in Kapiolani Park just about a fifteen-minute walk from Waikiki.
Shark's Cove on the North Shore of Oahu is not really a beach, but rather a snorkel and diving spot; and what a snorkel spot it is! This small cove is ringed in rocks and coral providing very little in the way of sand to lay out on, but if you are looking for a great place to snorkel, Shark's Cove is, at many times of the year, an excellent option.
The most famous coastline for big wave surfing in the world is the 7 mile stretch of beaches and intermittent rocky shore known as the "North Shore" of Oahu.
Waikiki Beach is certainly the most famous beach in all of Hawaii and is a probable contender for the most well known beach in the world. This of course, was the beach where it all started regarding tourism in Hawaii.
Waimea Bay on Oahu's famed North Shore is home, in the winter time, to a wave that is so large that no one had successfully surfed it until the late 1950's.
Yokohama Bay is the large stretch of beautiful white sand that extends up to the Kaena Point area of western Oahu. Yokohama Bay is truly amazingly beautiful.
A listing of all Oahu Beaches can be found on these pages. Check for the Oahu Beach that will be perfect for you!
It's a good thing you're going to the beach on Oahu! Not only does Oahu have some of the most beautiful beaches in the state, have some of the best snorkeling to be seen in the state, have some of the best surfing, kayaking and stand-up paddling locations in the state and some of the largest waves for you to watch in the state, but Oahu beaches have more lifeguard locations and more lifeguards all toll than any other island in the State of Hawaii.

I have been following this architect's work for many years, as he is one of my favorites. If you have additional information on any of these projects, it would be much appreciated - GH.
1924- , Canadian architect, born in Vancouver, BC. Considered one of Canada's greatest architects. Studied at the University of British Columbia and McGill University, and after traveling extensively in Europe and the Far East, returned to practice in Vancouver. He contributed to the rebirth of Modernism within Canada, and is known for his unique ability to handle large-scale contemporary architecture which is sensitive to its location by exploiting the effects of various materials and structural systems. He has designed private homes such as the Puget Sound House and the Newport Beach House, public buildings such as the San Diego Convention Center and the UBC Museum of Anthropology, the Vancouver Court House, Simon Fraser University, and the Canadian Embassy in Washington, DC.
Erickson's design was innovative in several aspects. The mountain top location inspired Erickson to reject multi-story buildings, which he thought would look out of place. Instead, Erickson turned for inspiration to the acropolis in Athens and the hill towns of Italy, where the mountain was incorporated into the design itself. This concept is evident in many aspects of the university's design. For example, the manner in which the buildings are terraced to reflect the contours of the landscape and the emphasis upon the horizontal rather than the vertical expansion of the buildings themselves.
Another innovative aspect of the design was its rejection of the usual separation of faculties and departments into individual buildings. Erickson wanted to facilitate interdisciplinary work and a closer relationship between faculty and students, so the design incorporated buildings housed several departments as well as classroom space. This measure satisfied the practical requirements of both students and faculty by reducing the travel time between classes, and helped foster an intimate learning environment.
Simon Fraser University opened in 1965 and was heralded worldwide as an architectural success. The university's new buildings have remained true to the original design principles conceived by its founding architect.
One of the world's most impressive displays of Northwest Coast First Nations art is housed in an unusual building overlooking mountains and sea at the northwest corner of the University of British Columbia. Erickson wanted the design of the building to have a close relationship with these dramatic surroundings. He worked to highlight what he considers the four principal architectural elements: site, light, cadence and space.
Erickson has had a long admiration and respect for the Native American cultures, and for this reason he seemed an appropriate choice as architect of the Museum of Anthropology. Retaining the natural settings of Native American artifacts was a primary consideration, and his desire to include the natural environment as part of the design is in part accomplished via large expanses of glass. Natural lighting is intentionally utilized to cast natural shade and shadow upon the exhibits.
Erickson attempted to abstractly represent these natural conditions indoors. He coupled changes in the character of the lighting with the visitor's experience of moving through the building. Erickson said, ``Most of my concepts have to do with how one moves, and since the site is sloped, I felt the whole movement should be down a long ramp with more and more revealed, until the whole space burst open with a view of the sea.'' In order to achieve that experience in the Great Hall, Erickson enclosed the northwest-facing space with broad areas of glass and a succession of concrete beams of increasing length separated by slivers of skylight. There are conflicting opinions of what these concrete piers are meant to mimic. Erickson is quoted by one source as saying the posts and beams recall the form of the frame of a tribal dwelling. Another source quotes Erickson as saying that the piers simulate massive tree trunks. In either case, the Great Hall represents the forest's edge, overlooking the prospect of the land and water.
To heighten this experience, Erickson had intended to surround the northwest side of the museum with an artificial lake, which would not only complete the native environment which it sought to simulate, but would also reflect the sunset, and bring ``moving light'' into the Great Hall as the water rippled. Due to the site's location perched upon a cliff above the strait, this artificial lake was intended to seamlessly blur into the waters of the Georgia Strait, creating an illusion of continuity with the distant landscape. However, this part of the design was never implemented for cost reasons.
In Erickson's mind, one of the most successful aspects of the museum is the way visitors move systematically through the galleries. The ability to bring artifacts from the research collection out of storage, allowing the public to view the full expanse of the museum's collection was also very important to him. Overall, Erickson said he strove for a ``tranquility of space'', where there is a resolution of forces to bring the building into balance.
I highly recommend that you visit the Vital Signs Project for more detailed information on the museum building. Most of my information here was obtained from this site.
In the late 1960's, a 572 acre expanse of land adjoining the Oldman River was chosen for the development of a university campus to serve Southern Alberta. When architect Arthur Erickson designed the University Hall, he envisoned a building which would ride the rolling coulees of the valley. It nestles into the folds of the coulee formed by the river, and its long flat roof echoes the flatness of the prairie above the coulee. The large campus, most of which is left in an undeveloped, natural prairie state, only further emphasizes the harmony between the land and the campus. Erickson's sculptural architecture is a natural and fitting companion to the prairie landscape.
The University of Lethbridge campus was officially opened in 1972. It has been expanded several times since, mostly in keeping with the architect's original vision. The sensitivity of the campus architecture to its context is a clear common link between this work, and his others at Simon Fraser University and the Museum of Anthropology.
The embassy is a blend of neoclassic and modern concepts, with a facade of smooth, unpolished Canadian marble that echoes the monuments around it. The embassy consists of three wings and six freestanding 50-foot that surround a spacious courtyard. The courtyard symbolizes the vastness of Canada's geography and the openness of its people. The colonnade, which supports a narrow plexiglas skylight, initiates the play of scales that is a primary feature of the building.
The slender triangular pillar that anchors the embassy's southeast corner echoes the angles of I.M. Pei's modernist East Building of the National Gallery of Art. The Rotunda of the Provinces is supported by 12 columns, one for each of the 10 provinces and the two oldest territories (Nunavut was later created in 1999), clustered within a cascading pool. The interior of the building is characterized by sharp, crisp angles and shapes, Arthur Erickson's architectural trademark, and the use of four materials: stone, metal, concrete and glass.
``A 3-block long complex whose concrete construction and geometric lines are softened by lots of plantings-even on roofs-plus a pool, waterfalls, and intricate patterns of stairs and ramps. Included are a 7-story Law Courts Building with a tilted glass roof and exposed structural framing, a lower-rise government office building, an indoor mall, outdoor plazas, and an old courthouse transformed into the Vancouver Art Gallery.''
-from Sylvia Hart Wright. Sourcebook of Contemporary North American Architecture: From Postwar to Postmodern. p27.
I would like to thank Melvin W Buxton for the aerial view of the Robson Square complex.
This 5 story, 201,750 square foot structure is designed as a metaphor of Fresno's geographic setting. Both the expansive feeling of the valley and the thrust and shape of the Sierra Nevada are portrayed in the shape of the building. The outside metallic trim is Sea Foam Green from the Chrysler corporation '63 autos, and the roof is comprised of 2 acres of stainless steel.
