How Can I Improve My Dog's Recall?
Problems with consistent dog recall is one of the most common training needs for dog owners. It is more common in certain breeds, but any dog can have difficulty with a consistent recall, especially if it not trained to do so from an early age.
You'll likely have found that in certain situations your dog will come back to you, yet at other times, temporary deafness seems to take hold! It's both frustrating and worrying as your concern for having control of your dog whilst wanting to allow them the freedom to roam, come into conflict.
Why is it so common? Once a dog is off the lead it has free rein to explore and well, there are just so many interesting things to discover, why would they want to come back?
1 Is it too late?
3 Why is recall important?
4 What motivates your dog?
Is it possible to improve your dog's recall now it is adult? Are you destined to keep your dog on the lead or avoid certain places where they're prone to 'sudden deafness'? Thankfully, no! Whilst, it is easier to achieve success with puppy recall training, it is still possible to improve it in adult dogs.
Dog recall training may seem like a lot of hard work, but rest assured, with some simple dog training tips and a bag of treats, you'll really notice a difference over time.
It's important to understand that your dog has natural instincts which vary in severity across the different breeds – for example, sight hounds like to chase anything that moves!
Whilst you cannot tame your dog's natural instincts, you can strengthen your communication with your dog to keep the focus on you.
Aside from it being pretty tiresome for you – calling your dog's name a billion times before they return to you, the behaviour is, more importantly, a danger to your dog. Simply put, any time your dog is off the lead, puts them at risk.
As we're sure you love your dog as a family member, investing this time will allow you both the freedom to safely enjoy walks together.
Before you begin recall training with your dog, you need to have an established bond and know what motivates them.
This is because when you call your dog away from something it is interested in, the reward they will get from coming back to you needs to be more appealing!
What motivates a dog does vary between the different breeds – does your dog do anything for a tasty treat? Is there a favourite toy that sends your dog's excitement through the roof?! Or does your dog love nothing more than a big fuss and cuddle?
This is your ace card, right here!
Begin by taking your dog to a small enclosed area. For the first few rounds of training, keep the lead on.
You can use a whistle if you wish or just simply call your dog to you. Choose a command – such as their name 0 and then give your dog its preferred reward as soon as they come to you.
Repeat this step daily whilst gradually increasing the lead length (to up to 30ft), for a minimum of four to six weeks.
Once you're in a position where your dog is coming to you every time you call them, you can try a larger space. Make sure the space is still enclosed for now and away from main roads, dogs and other distractions.
Remaining on the lead, practise your recall in this new setting and after a few successful calls, let the lead trail on the ground. Watch your dog and as soon as they're a few feet away, call them to you and reward.
Keep repeating this whilst gradually increasing the gap between you and your dog. Once you're achieving 100% recall rates, take off the lead and do keep recalling and rewarding.
The key to training a dog to do anything is repetition. It can take different breeds, different amounts of time to master, so the one thing you're going to need as a dog owner, is a bucket load of patience!
That is easier said than done, and if you find yourself struggling, remember why you're doing it and focus on how far you've come, not on how far you still have to go!
Over time, you can then introduce larger areas and more distractions, just do it gradually and continue to follow the same steps of regular recall and reward.

Coronavirus: Rules on operation of public hospitals extended for 48 hours
Measures governing the operation of public health facilities have been extended for another 48 hours.
These were adopted by decree effective from March 20 in order to protect health professionals in public hospitals on the front line of tackling the coronavirus outbreak.
The State Health Services Organisation (Okypy) also decided late on Sunday to extend the closure of the Paphos Hospital for another 48 hours as four of the 11 new positive Covid-19 cases announced yesterday are linked to the hospital, the CNA reports.
The Ministry of Health said that special arrangements would be made for haematological, oncological, dialysis and thalassemia cases during the closure.
All surgeries have also been suspended. Patients affected by the changes are asked to contact the private sector for their requirements, namely the Evangelismos and Kyanos Stavros (Blue Cross) medical centres which both have an agreement with the Ministry of Health.
Head of the Nephrological Department Dr Lakis Yioukas, who is in self-isolation after a nurse in the Dialysis Unit came out positive, told CNA that 80 swabs have been taken from patients at the dialysis unit and 20 more will be taken on Monday.
The Epidemiological monitoring unit of the Ministry of Health has already started tracing the contacts of the new confirmed cases of Covid-19 at Paphos hospital and will take swabs for testing.
680 people are said to be currently working at Paphos hospital and testing is ongoing.
Fewer than 30 patients remain in the hospital, which has suspended new admissions.
The Ministry of Health announced on Friday new rules for the operation of Cyprus hospitals.These have been extended for 48 hours:
Limassol -Paphos General Hospitals
(a) Out-patient departments suspend operations, both for scheduled and emergency cases. All operations are suspended. Patients must apply to the private sector (Evangelismos and Blue Cross Hospitals in Paphos district and Mediterranean in Limassol district) after an agreement between them and the ministry
(b) Hematological and oncology cases, dialysis and thalassaemia are excluded. Special arrangements will be made so as to safeguard the health of patients and health care professionals. Patients should contact the relevant clinics.
(c) A&E suspend operations for 72 hours and all cases will be handled by the private sector hospitals above except in exceptional cases where the services cannot be provided by the private sector.
(d) Imaging and clinical labs will continue to operate, complying with the protocol for protection against coronavirus
(a) Suspension of cold cases and handling of emergencies (where the private sector cannot handle them)
(b) A&E to handle only emergencies
(c) suspension of the heart surgery unit
Larnaca General Hospital

Dr Chris Sarra is an educator who has dedicated his career to shifting expectations around children in schools across Australia. His focus has been Indigenous children and he's managed to break through entrenched misunderstandings and use education to make a real difference to their lives.
"The key has been getting educators to embrace Aboriginal kids beyond the stereotypes that dominate the landscape, while also allowing the kids themselves to see outside these labels," says Chris, Founding Chairman and CEO of the Stronger Smarter Institute, which has been operating for a decade now to improve educational outcomes for Indigenous Australian schoolchildren.
Chris believes that constant criticism and negativity may have a fundamental impact on the way children learn. "From a neuroscience perspective, I am particularly interested in the impact on the wiring of the brain when it is constantly bombarded with negative messages," he explains. "The essence of being stronger and smarter is to have a positive impact on a child's psyche and provide an authentic reason to be more optimistic.
This drove Chris to teachers' college and the first steps in the career in education that is now his passion. "My college lecturer, Dr Gary MacLennan, mentored me and at one point grabbed me by the 'intellectual scruff of my neck', calling upon my sense of outrage and determination to not defer to what people expected of me," he says, recalling that this gave him the self-confidence to believe he could succeed.
After qualifying as a teacher, in 1998 Chris became the first Aboriginal principal at Cherbourg State School in South East Queensland. There he developed the 'Stronger Smarter' philosophy, which encouraged Indigenous students to be both strong in their cultural identity and smart about making the most of educational opportunities.

ENTOMBED A.D. Vocalist: 'Being Angry All The Time Just Tears You Apart'
In a recent interview with Spain's "Heavy Demons" radio show, ENTOMBED A.D. vocalist L.G. Petrov explained how the band manages to have "fun" while playing death metal. Petrov fronted ENTOMBED A.D. predecessor group ENTOMBED when it became one of the first pure death metal acts to transition into the more accessible and rock-flavored style known as "death 'n' roll" on its landmark 1993 album, "Wolverine Blues". ENTOMBED would largely continue in that direction until its 2014 split due to a legal dispite between members over the band's name.
"There is positive aggression," he said (see video below). "Of course, we can be mad, of course, but, these aggressive feelings we take out on stage, so when you come off stage, you're drained of energy. The only power you have is to have a beer and a smile. [Laughs] Being angry all the time, it just tears you apart. We just [makes grinning face]. It's all good. It's all good."
Petrov was then asked what he misses and doesn't miss from the 1990s, a time when ENTOMBED was active on both the studio and touring front.
"We try to relive it as much as possible," he said. "Of course, we get older and the drinks get smaller. [Laughs] But it's a way of life. Being on tour is great. We've released lots of albums throughout the years and then this is what we do and what we feel we should do: Release an album, go on tour, rest a little bit, you do riffs during soundcheck, jamming stuff. If something is good, you record it, save it, wait until you get back home, listen to it. We throw away 80 percent and keep the 20 percent, then it's another [cycle]. The cycle goes on. It's a very, very good feeling."
ENTOMBED A.D.'s new album, "Bowels Of Earth" was released on August 30 via Century Media.
ENTOMBED A.D. was formed in 2014 when Petrov and other members of ENTOMBED decided to change the band's name in order to avoid a legal battle with ENTOMBED guitarist Alex Hellid, who didn't want his former bandmates to use the ENTOMBED moniker.

Salt Rain
An extraordinarily evocative novel of discovery, where fourteen-year-old Allie gradually realises that the picture of the past she is piecing together is different and much more complicated than she ever thought.
Allie's free-spirited mother, Mae, mysteriously disappears on Sydney Harbour one night, her dinghy found drifting in the darkness. Fourteen-year-old Allie is whisked away to the north, to a rainforested valley, by Julia, an aunt she barely knows. On the dilapidated dairy farm where Mae and Julia grew up, Allie waits for her mother to call.
As these anxious days pass, Allie learns about Mae's childhood and about Mae herself through the eyes of others. Allie watches her aunt, who is determined to return the valley to its natural order, replanting the trees of the forest that her grandfather cleared for grazing. And she watches her mother's first love who she discovers still lives in the valley. As the intoxicating heat of the wet season builds, Allie tries to decipher the truth and lies that her mother has told her, and must come to grips with the many secrets held close in the valley.
Beautifully written, Salt Rain is an extraordinary evocation of the moods of the inexorable rainforest, of families and of the secrets hidden within them.

I have a client who sold the flat she was living in order to moving in with her fiance.
HMRC have clarified in CG64950 that "the period of ownership of the transferee is treated by TCGA92/S222 (7)(a) as beginning at the beginning of the period of ownership of the transferor." However, it is only possible to have one PPR at any one time.
As she has already used PPR to exempt the gain on her home, does this mean that she would now be liable to tax for so much of the period as she had two homes?
Which "two homes" are you referring to?
You seem to be implying that some transfer of ownership of her fiance's property took place when she moved in, but if so you forgot to mention it.
the lady receives PPR on her flat if it was her only main residence so no capital gains tax due on the proceeds of sale.
PPR only due on residence at fiancés property if your lady is joint owner.
When the property is moved into joint names (when she moved in), the new owner is treated as owning the property beginning on a date when she had another PPR.
She has sold the old flat and it was treated as exempt, since she always lived there. Consequently, she cannot also get PPR on the 'inherited' period of occupation on her current home, since the inherited period overlaps with a time when she was living elsewhere.
They would be better off from a tax point of view moving the new home back into sole ownership of the original owner. I may have answered my own question.
Intuitively one would want to maintain that half the property is transferred when a couple marry under the spouse exemption, and therefore the property becomes the PPR of acquiring spouse from the date of acquisition. I think this is the simplification that K18 makes in the post above.
This deals with the situation where transferor has a period whether the joint property was not a PPR. However in my scenario, the transferee has a period whether the joint property would not usually be a PPR. However the HMRC guidance uses the term "for any part" and therefore this could be interpreted to mean for any part, regardless of whether the transferee had another PPR at the same time. This would be similar to the final period of occupation (now 18 months) override.
Given that my issue has not raised many responses, I am guessing that it is not an issue that practitioners have had to face HMRC about in large numbers.
Girl lives in property A 2000 to 2010. She sells A and immediately moves in to B with fiance, who she marries shortly afterwards. Husband then transfers B to wife. They live there until 2015 when the property is sold. Husband has used B as his main residence since 2000.
s222(7)(a) and, in particular, s222(7)(b), provide that in these circumstances she will be treated as having acquired B, as a main residence, in 2000.
Your concern is that she will apparently get PPR for two properties at the same time. Well, ss 7(a) and (b) are merely deeming provisions for the purpose of calculating the amount of relief - they do not assume that the transferee actually resided in the property at that earlier time or that she actually had 2 main residences at the same time. Secondly, ss7(b) is quite unambiguous - the property will be treated as her main residence for that period. So how would you deal with the 'double' relief - go back and withdraw PPR in respect of property A? Clearly that would be absurd.
In fact, there would be no double PPR relief. Were it not for the no gain/no loss provision for interspouse transfers, husband would have had a gain on transfer to wife, wholly covered by PPR - with no option to elect out of the exemption so as to preserve PPR. ss 7(a) and (b) simply operate to preserve the PPR that would otherwise have been available to the husband had he retained the property or had the transfer otherwise have been chargeable.
In my opinion, therefore, giving the wife full PPR on both properties is both logical and in accordance with the legislation.
The inference is that the couple were married before the transfer of the property.
Thank you BKD. It is a legislation that gives married couples considerable tax relief. If the jointly owned home is ever let out, the denominator (i.e. period of ownership and occupation) in any calculation about PPR and lettings relief would improve the position for both couple. This is especially as there is £40,000 letting relief cap per person.
I am dealing with theoretical clients in my question, hence some of the vagueness on dates and marital status.

What is a Consolidation Model?
A Consolidation Model is constructed by combining the financial resultsThree Financial StatementsThe three financial statements are the income statement, the balance sheet, and the statement of cash flows. These three core statements are intricately linked to each other and this guide will explain how they all fit together. By following the steps below you'll be able to connect the three statements on your own. of multiple business units into one single model. Typically, the first worksheet of the model is a summary or consolidation view that shows the highest-level figures (monthly and yearly revenuesRevenue StreamsRevenue Streams are the money a business earns from the sale of goods or provision of services. The types of revenue that a business records on its accounts depend on the types of activities carried out by the business. Learn about the different types, how to categorize them and, profits, costsFixed and Variable CostsFixed and variable costs are important in management accounting and financial analysis. Fixed costs do not change with increases/decreases in units of production volume, while variable costs are solely dependent on the volume of units of production. This guide teaches an analyst the fixed vs variable cost methods, productivity rate, etc.) in the form of tables, graphs or charts. Other tabs in the model display financial dataData Sources in Financial ModelingCollecting and using the right data sources in financial modeling is critical to the success of a business. Financial modeling requires gathering and by departments, business units or product lines by years, quarters or months.
In this section, we'll break down the modeling process step by step to explain the details thoroughly. For this sample model, projects are the main "business units" with their own revenues and costs. This is a very simple model with only a few inputs, but in the real-world business setting, consolidation models can be quite complicated and involve various data sources and in-depth calculations.
The FP&A analystFP&A AnalystBecome an FP&A Analyst at a corporation. We outline the salary, skills, personality, and training you need for FP&A jobs and a successful finance career. FP&A analysts, managers, and directors are responsible for providing executives with the analysis, information they need to make operational, strategic decisions starts building the consolidation model in Excel by creating multiple workbooks. Each workbook is assigned to a specific project.
For each project, the FP&A analyst identifies the columns and rows needed. In this model, time (i.e. months) is the main column and the financial metrics (total revenues, total costs, profits, etc.) are the main rows. Starting with the highest-level metrics, the analyst will insert rows for lower-level numbers such as various expenses. Besides the individual months, there is also often a column showing the full year results or the monthly averages.
Once all columns and rows are identified, the FP&A analyst inputs the corresponding information collected from financial statements or obtained from developing queries on raw data. They are data that needs to be manually filled into the table, so an analyst should use a different color font (blue color is used in this sample model) to distinguish the numbers from those that will be calculated.
With all the desired information in place, the FP&A analyst can calculate metrics that are not readily available from financial statements or other sources. The metrics can be figures such as total costs for each project, profit margins, and productivity rates. Formulas such as SUM, AVERAGE and SUMPRODUCT are commonly used in the calculations. The analyst should always include cell references in their formulas to better track calculation errors. The numbers should be shown in black or other colors to distinguish them from the manually-encoded data.
After completing the data tables, the analyst should always validate the data with the numbers in the financial statements to ensure accuracy. This is a very crucial step in building consolidation models that must be completed before proceeding to the last few steps.
When all individual project analyses are completed, the FP&A analyst creates a summary or consolidation worksheet as the first tab of the model. This is a page to summarize all the project financial metrics and present the highest-level information that is important to managers and corporate decision-makers. Analysts can create tables to display figures like total revenue, total costs, profit margins and margin percentages of the entire business. They can also include information that is helpful to managers to improve operating efficiencies such as the employee productivity rates.
Next step is to insert numbers into the summary tables by using formulas. In the formulas, the analyst should always use cell references from individual project tabs instead of simply plugging in the numbers. It is to make sure the right figures are used in the calculations and to allow the analyst to return to and check the reference cells if variances exist.
Using the data in the summary tables, the analyst inserts charts and graphs to present information in meaningful and easy-to-interpret formats. There are several types of charts utilized by FP&A analysts to visualize the data, so simply choose the types that would best represent the data characteristics and analytical trends.
Lastly, clean up, format and embellish the consolidation model to make it look professional. It is very important because the management team would not want to see an unorganized dashboard that they will find the financial figures difficult to understand.

Physical version of Runner3 to dash into stores next year
Upcoming rhythm platformer Runner3 is set to receive a physical release for the Nintendo Switch, according to a press release sent out by publisher Nicalis, Inc.
The decision to ship a retail version of the game came about after its developers realized it was "deserving" of it.
"Some games just belong on physical cartridges, and this is clearly one of the most deserving," said Nicalis president Tyrone Rodriguez in the press release.
Runner3 was announced in September 2016 before being revealed as a Nintendo Switch-exclusive in February 2017.
The game is a continuation of the Runner series developed by Choice Provisions, which started with the multi-platform Bit.Trip Runner in 2010 and saw a sequel in 2013 when Runner2: Future Legend of Rhythm Alien was released.
The game features the character CommanderVideo, who runs forward automatically while players jump, slide and kick their way through obstacles.
Voice actor Charles Martinet, best known as the voice of Mario and many other Nintendo characters, lends his talent to the game, as well.
"We know everyone's going to love Runner3, but I'll bet you're going to love it even more in tiny little cartridge form," said Choice Provisions co-founder Alex Neuse.
"Just try not to lick it–play it!" added fellow co-founder Mike Roush, referring to the infamous "nasty" taste of Switch cartridges.
Runner3 will hit retail locations and the Nintendo Switch eShop in "early 2018" with a suggested price of $39.99.

TURTLES CAN FLY is set in a village on the border between Iran and Turkey, just as the world's news networks announce the US led invasion of Iraq. The villagers desperately seek a satellite dish antenna to keep informed of the impending attack. No adult is up to the job so it falls to a 13-year-old boy called "Satellite" and his underage army to find the treasured antenna. There are plenty of laughs from these delightfully scrappy kids as they barter with American soldiers for the best price on old landmines.
The first feature film from Iraq since Saddam's downfall, TURTLES CAN FLY is a masterpiece of profound tragedy, intense joy and breathtaking cinematography. Featuring, without doubt, the most extraordinary performances by children ever captured on camera.


Please provide values below to convert gram [g] to ounce [oz], or vice versa.
Definition: An ounce (symbol: oz) is a unit of mass in the imperial and US customary systems of measurement. The avoirdupois ounce (the common ounce) is defined as exactly 28.349523125 grams and is equivalent to one sixteenth of an avoirdupois pound.
History/origin: The origin of the term ounce stems from the Roman uncia, which means a "twelfth part," and the use of a standardized copper bar which defined both the Roman pound and foot. The copper bar was divided into twelve equal parts, called unciae. This relationship between the Roman pound and foot eventually contributed to the uncia being the basis of the modern inch as well as the common ounce. The ounce has been used as a standard of mass throughout history for different applications and with different definitions. Examples include the Dutch metric ounce (100g), French ounce (30.59g), and the Spanish ounce (28.75g), among others. The current definition of the ounce, the international avoirdupois ounce was adopted in 1959.
Current use: The ounce is still a standard unit of mass in the US customary system of measurement. It is mostly used in the United States for measuring packaged food products, food portions, and postal items, among other things. The ounce is still used in some other countries around the world that have roots in British history and culture. Due to metrication, the United Kingdom (UK) no longer officially uses the ounce. It is however, still used in some settings in the UK, such as restaurants.

Vikings fire head coach and general manager
U.S. Bank Stadium has been the home of the Vikings for five years.
On Monday, Jan.12 the Minnesota Vikings announced that they fired head coach Mike Zimmer and general manager, Rick Spielman. This news was to be expected after the Vikings failed to reach the playoffs the past two seasons.
In Zimmer's eight-year career as the Vikings head coach, he went 72-56-1 and led them to two NFC North titles, including an NFC Championship game in 2017. Zimmer released a statement on Monday thanking the organization and fans for everything.
"I want to thank you for our support over these eight years," said Zimmer via bringmethenews.com. "I have grown to love the people of Minnesota, it has become our home. You have been tremendous to my foundation and helping the kids of Minnesota. We have had great sponsors and met so many great people, including my relationship with Bud Grant and all the people in the offices. I have given my heart and soul to this organization and to the players. I have had outstanding assistant coaches who have worked tirelessly. I'm sorry we didn't get it done. The fans make this place truly special. On Sunday afternoon at U.S. Bank Stadium, it's an unbelievable atmosphere. I will miss coaching the players, some who have been with me for all eight years. I want to thank the players who welcomed me in 2014 and believed in me that I could lead them to be great."
Spielman has been a part of the Vikings organization for 16 years and has spent the past 10 as the acting general manager. Spielman's final two seasons as the Vikings general manager were pretty rough, finishing below .500 in consecutive years is ultimately what led to his firing. However, during his time with the Vikings, he brought in plenty of talented players who are still a part of the team today.
It will be interesting to see who the Vikings hire for their head coaching and general manager spots this offseason. According to twincities.com, the Vikings are looking to first hire a general manager, who will then have input on who becomes the head coach.
The Vikings have one of the most talented rosters in the NFL; they will be a very popular destination for coaching and general manager candidates this offseason.

"Negligence and Two-Sided Causation" by Keith Hylton, Haizhen Lin et al.
We extend the economic analysis of negligence and intervening causation to "two-sided causation" scenarios. In the two-sided causation scenario the effectiveness of the injurer's care depends on some intervention, and the risk of harm generated by the injurer's failure to take care depends on some other intervention. We find that the distortion from socially optimal care is more severe in the two-sided causation scenario than in the one-sided causation scenario, and generally in the direction of excessive care. The practical lesson is that the likelihood that injurers will have optimal care incentives under the negligence test in the presence of intervening causal factors is low.

It is about time! The Bundesliga awakes from its winter sleep tonight. Bayer Leverkusen and Borussia Dortmund will open the second half of the season 2010/2011. When the opening whistle shrills everything about the first half of the season and the possible chances of Borussia Dortmund's seventh championship will be said by the media. From now on the performances on the pitch are the only things that matter. The upcoming weeks will show to what extent our young guns conserved their fitness over the holidays. The challenges could not be much tougher, we will see in which way our sportive future develops after the first matches. Borussia Dortmund starts with a highlight – after the clash with Leverkusen there might be an advantage of thirteen points towards the brilliant team from the Bayer factory. As if Leverkusen was not enough Borussia awaits VfB Stuttgart, VfL Wolfsburg and Scheiße in the following weeks. Best luck!
During winter bootcamp the personal situation was slightly stressed. As we all know our brilliant Japanese Shinji Kagawa stays with his national team during the whole January to win the Asian Cup in Qatar. It seems that youngster Mario Götze and returnee Mohamed Zidan are promoting for the position of Shinji in the offense. Unfortunately Lucas Barrios was not able to absolve the whole bootcamp because of a common cold he catched during his home leave in Argentina. Last but not least the appearance of Roman Weidenfeller was questionable at the start of the week. However it seems that he will be playing this evening.
Here is what Jürgen Klopp said during the media conference on Wednesday regarding to the upcoming top match: "We will clash with a really tough opponent who has a highly ambitious team over the last years with a lot of quality." He stated that he is "still not quite sure which players will be available on Friday" because he and his coaching team have to "observe the guys during several training sessions." Asked on Mario Götze he replied: "It is no secret that Mario Götze was only able to absolve a roadwork yesterday. If this will change today, I think we can count on him." In connection with Lucas Barrios positive news can be reported - according to our coach he will be able to be a part of the team. Whether as a starter or substitute is still unclear. Concluding Klopp said that he and his staff have no doubts that Borussia Dortmund is going to have a powerful starting lineup.
The chance of reaching the promised land by winning the championship was not so good for a long time, I am convinced that 30 points will be enough to have a great celebration on the Friedensplatz in May. And remember: Since Jürgen Klopp coaches our beloved team, we were always able to gather round about 30 points per one half of the season. Promising, isn't it?
May the force be with us!
Line-Ups:
Bayer Leverkusen: Adler - Schwaab, Friedrich, Reinartz, Castro - Renato Augusto, L. Bender (Vidal), Rolfes, Sam - Helmes, Kießling.
Substitute's Bench: Giefer - Hyypiä, Vida, Balitsch, Ballack, Barnetta, Jörgensen, Derdiyok.
Missing: Kaplan
Borussia Dortmund: Weidenfeller - Piszczek, Subotic, Hummels, Schmelzer - S. Bender, Sahin - Kuba, Zidan (Götze), Großkreutz - Barrios (Lewandowski).
Substitute's Bench: Langerak - Santana, Dede, Feulner, Hajnal, Götze, Lewandowski.
Questionable: Weidenfeller, Langerak, Götze, Barrios
Missing: Kagawa, Kehl, Kringe, Owomoyela
Referee: Peter Gagelmann (Bremen)
Kickoff: 14th of January – 20.30. p.m. CET
Stadium: BayArena - 30,290 seats – sold out - 7,000 supporters of Borussia are expected

The Breckinridges of Kentucky
by James C. Klotter James C. Klotter
Across more than six generations—beginning before the Revolutionary War—the Breckinridge family has produced a series of notable leaders. These often controversial men and women included a presidential candidate, a U.S. vice president, cabinet members, generals, women's rights advocates, congressmen, editors, reformers, authors, and church leaders. Along with success, the Breckinridges, like other Americans, faced hardship and war, contended with race, lived through difficult family situations—including a sex scandal—and encountered personal and political failure. An articulate, opinionated, and frank family, the Breckinridges have left a detailed record that allows us a vivid recreation of the range of American history and society.
University Press of Kentucky
James C. Klotter, the state historian of Kentucky and professor of history at Georgetown College, is the author, coauthor, or editor of many books, including History Mysteries, Kentucky: Portrait in Paradox 1900-1950, A New History of Kentucky, Kentucky: Decades of Discord, 1865-1900, Kentucky: Land of Tomorrow, Our Kentucky: A Study of the Bluegrass State, Public Papers of Governor Simeon Willis, 1943-1947, and William Goebel: The Politics of Wrath.
Traces the path of the well-known family from log cabins in colonial Virginia to the 20th century.
Kentucky Monthly
Each of Klotter's eight central figures merits extended study and he lists more than a dozen 'secondary' family members who seem ripe for historical investigation.

Iran bagged several gold medals without participating in any games throughout the past decade.
It won its first gold after the 9/11 attacks that triggered Great Satan's war on al-Qaeda.
It clinched its second when U.S. forces rooted out the Taliban who made no secret of their hostility to the Iranian regime.
Iran won its third when U.S. forces brought down the regime of its nemesis, Saddam Hussein, in Iraq.
It secured its fourth gold medal by way of the 2006 Lebanon War.
The great Iranian program's future looked rosy. When Mahmoud Ahmadinejad visited Baghdad (in 2008), he was fully confident that U.S. troops there were looking for an opportunity to leave. (Two years later) he went to Damascus, where posters of him with Bashar al-Assad and Hassan Nasrallah consolidated the rejectionist crescent. He seized the occasion of his (October 2010) visit to Beirut and South Lebanon to put the region and the world on notice that his country's missiles were beached on Mediterranean shores.
Iran won the gold medals and stepped up its quest for the ultimate prize: the bomb, or the ability to produce it and thus threaten the security of oil routes and Israel at the same time.
On the outbreak of the Arab Spring, Iran tried claiming parenthood. It was elated by the downfall of the West's friends. But when the Arab Spring enveloped Syria, it stumbled into a ruinous trap.
Iran cannot let go of its strong and close alliance with the Syrian regime. Remaining neutral is implausible and keeping out is impossible.
Syria is not only a corridor to Hezbollah in Lebanon. It is much more than that. The relationship with Syria is the most important triumph of the 1979 Khomeini revolution. Iran's presence in Damascus means its presence in Beirut and South Lebanon, in the Arab-Israeli dispute and in the Palestinian issue. Iran's presence in Damascus also preempts any serious attempt to hem in the Iranian surge across the region.
Iran cannot accept losing Syria. But it can't salvage the Syrian regime either. The regime is severely damaged at the core. The (Baath) party is on life support. The (Syrian) army's image is badly blemished.
The Syria crisis lured Iran into a blatant and horrific clash with Syria and the region's majority. The clash has some sectarian overtones as evidenced by the repeated abduction of Iranians in Syria. The isolation gripping the Syrian regime is afflicting Iran as well, notwithstanding Russia's objections.
Iran is roasting on the Syrian fire. It can't opt out or distance itself. Nor can it change the course of events. It is hurting because of developments in Syria and the sanctions. Not since the start of its (1980-1988) war with Iraq did it face such difficult circumstances.
Escaping forward from the Syria crisis by initiating armed hostilities in South Lebanon or instigating a major crisis in the Gulf seems fraught with dangers.
Sending volunteers to Syria would mean touching off a sectarian regional war.
Gambling on keeping hold of a slice of Syria would open the way to a reconfiguration of maps. That would open the doors of hell and require the consent of Vladimir Putin, who is exploiting the Syrians' blood to reinforce his country's status.
Iran is twisting and turning on the Syrian fire.
It is test firing new versions of missiles much as an anxious boxer tries reminding the world of his muscles.
The time of collecting gold medals has lapsed.
The time of losing out has dawned.


TechCrunch is reporting that Flickr has tagged Picnik as it's official and integrated photo editing service. Soon, Flickr users will have a "edit photo" button on photo pages, which will then launch the photo in Picnik's flash-based photo editing software. Free account users will have the edited photo added to their photo stream, while Pro users will have the edited photo replace the original.
Photo rotation was a welcome addition a while ago, but full editing capabilities will be awesome, especially for casual photographers who use Flickr as more of a personal blog than professional portfolio. I haven't tried Picnik yet, but it looks like I'll be using it soon enough.

Adventure Quiz: Capcom World / Hatena? no Daibōken (TurboGrafx CD)
[add cover]

Compilation, Simulation
Board game, Game show / trivia / quiz
Adventure Quiz is a compilation of two games previously released on the arcades, Capcom World and Hatena? no Daibōken.
Both games play very similarly: the player has to roll dice in order to navigate his/her alter ego on a board with medieval/fantasy backgrounds. Depending on the result, the character advances a certain amount of squares, which lead to various quiz challenges. The player has to answer a series of questions within a time limit, choosing the right answer among the several (usually four) available ones. Two-player gameplay is also possible.
Upon reaching the final square of a "world", the player has to face a "boss enemy" (usually a character from popular games by Capcom, such as Side Arms, Forgotten Worlds, etc.). The boss offers the player a choice of several available topics for the decisive quiz. "Defeating" the boss leads the player into a new worlds with its own structure, etc.
The themes of the questions are varied, ranging from history and geography to Japanese popular culture and very specific themes (such as bicycles).
Hatena? no Daibōken is a follow-up to Capcom World, offering a few enhancements: multiple paths through some worlds, special squares that lead to new challenges (such as a quiz with only three possible answers), etc.

I never use a lot of cookbooks, mainly on the internet recipes, BUT I do have a single for bread and baking, and it is King Arthur's, exactly where the coconut cake in this post came from. Cake making is really satisfying, and if you select simple healthy cake recipes, it is also extremely fast. My daughter likes the chocolate oatmeal cookies, purchase my favourite, by far, is the orange cranberry oatmeal cookies. I had discovered one particular other homemade yellow cake mix and lost the link (it was just before I had Pinterest to organize almost everything). You will locate some recipes on the Splenda site, but it is worth trying in your typical recipes.

Q: Integral Geometry Reference Request I am looking for a good introductory reference (book, lecture notes, survey article) on integral geometry. I am especially interested in the Crofton formula in $\mathbb{R}^n$ and its extensions to Riemannian manifolds.
So far, I have only had a look at the 2004 edition of Santaló's integral geometry and geometric probability and Blaschke's "Vorlesungen über Integralgeometrie" from 1955. I find both of them rather inaccessible (for someone not acquainted with the field like me). I also found this PDF book by Rémi Langevin, which happens to be quite meagre on the topics I am interested in.
I am thankful for any suggestions.

Q: Instantiate View Controller Swift 3 Tab Bar Controller How can I segue to a tab bar controller? Theres 2 view controllers on tabs with navigation controllers and a navigation controller on the tab bar controller.
let storyboard = UIStoryboard(name: "PendingOverview", bundle: nil)
let vc = storyboard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "PendingOverviewVC") as! PendingOverViewController
let nc = UINavigationController(rootViewController: vc)
self.present(nc, animated: false, completion: nil)

Thank you

A: In Storyboard set identifier to UITabbarController and then using instantiateViewController present that UITabbarController.
let storyboard = UIStoryboard(name: "PendingOverview", bundle: nil)
let tabbarVC = storyboard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "TabbarIdentifier") as! UITabbarController
if let vcs = tabbarVC.viewControllers,
   let nc = vcs.first as? UINavigationController,
   let pendingOverVC = nc.topViewController as? PendingOverViewController {

      pendingOverVC.pendingResult = pendingResult
}

Military bombs Boko Haram base, silent on 20 passengers' abduction
Published September 7, 2018 September 7, 2018
Olaleye Aluko, Abuja
The Nigerian Air Force said on Thursday that its fighter jets bombed a logistics base of the Boko Haram insurgents in the Tumbun Rego area of Borno State, as well as other structures in the Sabon Tumbun and Tumbun Allura areas along the Lake Chad.
This is just as the Defence Headquarters, Abuja, said it was not aware of Boko Haram's reported abduction of 20 bus passengers who were travelling from Maiduguri to Gwoza area on Wednesday.
The Director, Defence Information, Brig. Gen. John Agim, told our correspondent on Thursday that he did not have any information on the incident.
It was reported on Thursday that some gunmen, suspected to be Boko Haram insurgents, abducted no fewer than 20 people from a bus heading for Gwoza.
Although the army has yet to speak on the abduction, some family members and military sources have confirmed the incident, noting that at least 10 of the passengers were abducted by the insurgents.
The Director, Army Public Relations, Brig. Gen. Texas Chukwu, could not be reached for comment on Thursday as his line rang out.
The DHQ's spokesman, Agim, said he had no information on the incident.
"I am not aware. Maybe you talk to the army," he said.
The air force said on Wednesday that its jets bombed the Boko Haram communications and logistics base in Tumbun Rego was part of Operation Thunder Strike 2, which began on Monday.
The NAF Director of Public Relations and Information, Air Commodore Ibikunle Daramola, who confirmed the bombing of the insurgents' bases, said it was carried out by the Air Task Force of the Operation Lafiya Dole.
He said, "The operation is targeted at terror locations in the Lake Chad and Sambisa Forest in Borno State. Air strikes were carried out in Tumbun Rego, Sabon Tumbun and Tumbun Allura.
"Tumbun Rego, which is located about 140km North-East of Maiduguri, has been identified as a major logistics and communications base of the insurgents.
"Accordingly, the air force detailed F-7Ni and Alpha Jet aircraft to destroy the logistics and communications hubs. The Chief of the Air Staff, Air Marshal Abubakar, was also in Maiduguri, where he motivated the front-line personnel and obtained first-hand information on the operation."

Heavy rain, powerful winds and severe thunderstorms are expected to barrel through the Chicago area Tuesday as a massive winter storm makes its way across the Midwest.
Just after 1 p.m., the National Weather Service issued a special weather statement for LaSalle, Grundy and Kendall counties, warning of a strong thunderstorm that was over northeast over Marseilles at 55 mph.
Hail as big as a half of an inch, winds in excess of 40 mph and brief heavy downpours will be possible with the storm system, NWS said. It is likely that this thunderstorm will go through cycles and could strengthen further very quickly, according to NWS.
By 4:30 p.m. approximately 6 inches of standing water had flooded the street near 159th and Pulaski in south suburban Markham, according to the NWS.
Tuesday brings steady moderate to at times heavy rain with embedded thunderstorms developing late morning and continuing through the afternoon hours. NBC 5's Andy Avalos has more from the forecast.
A looming blizzard put 31 million people at risk for severe weather Tuesday, according to the National Weather System, threatening to dump more than a foot of new snow in some areas and snarl traffic across eight states in the Midwest through the course of the day.
While Chicago won't get much snow, the effects of the storm will be seen in sometimes heavy downpour and isolated thunderstorms.
NBC 5's Andy Avalos gives us a look at the weather forecast.
The day began with a cold, cloudy and relatively quiet start, changes swept the area hour-by-hour. Some spotty light snow or sleet was reported on some roadways, otherwise the morning was overcast, hazy, damp and chilly.
Winds began fairly light but steadily gain strength through the day, becoming extremely windy with gusts reaching upwards of 40 mph.
Steady moderate to heavy rain with embedded thunderstorms will likely develop and continue through the afternoon hours. An isolated strong to severe storm will be possible in far southern areas and in Northwest Indiana. And while not likely, an isolated tornado is possible.
Evening hours will be mostly cloudy, breezy and chilly with a few lingering spotty showers or drizzle overnight.
As the strongest waves of the storm pass, conditions won't dry up just yet. Wednesday is expected to bring colder temperatures, passing light rain or snow showers on occasion but only minor accumulation possible through the day.

Tertulia at Amber Ridge – where good friends and family gather in stunningly beautiful, peaceful surroundings to enjoy each other's company over great food and wine. Deep relaxation, pleasant conversation, laughter and joy ensue! Tertulia is a fabulous two-acre Wine Country sanctuary surrounded on all sides by vineyards as far as the eye can see, with views of the foothills in the distance.
The elegant main home is a 4br/3ba, nearly 4000 sq. ft., two-story, gated estate with central heat/AC, a spectacular gourmet kitchen, abundant high end architectural details and custom finishes, fine furnishings, and the entire home is floored in honed hickory hardwood made even more comfortable with the addition of beautiful area rugs. The accommodations can also include ($250/night w/ an additional $50 cleaning fee) a lovely, spacious 1br/1ba loft above the 3-car garage, with lovely attached bathroom below. The extensively landscaped 2-acre grounds with in-ground pool and spa, outdoor kitchen, dramatic outdoor dining area and large gas firepit are surrounded by vineyards on all sides including those that produce a famed Kosta Browne Pinot Noir.
This beautifully appointed home offers the best of both worlds. Enjoy the spectacular setting of Tertulia as well as the fabulous dining, wine tasting, galleries, and shops of charming, historic, upscale Healdsburg - the "crown jewel" of Sonoma County's Wine Country, only 5 miles to the north. This very special home is located in the heart of Sonoma County- the "Tuscany" of Northern California - with Napa valley just over the hills to the east.
Imagine awakening to the cool tranquility of an agrarian setting among the vines. Enjoy your morning coffee or tea from a rocking chair on a shady porch overlooking luscious landscaping, manicured vineyards and the hills beyond as hot air balloons drift silently by overhead. Contemplate your day's agenda – perhaps planning meals to make the best use of fresh offerings from Tertulia's garden planters or a local farmer's market, or maybe plotting your path to a winery or two before your coveted dinner reservation at a Healdsburg restaurant or a meal prepared by, or for, your group in the generous chef-friendly indoor and outdoor kitchens.
When afternoon arrives, like clockwork, notice the afternoon breezes that clear the warm air before sunset. As evening falls slowly, gather on the patio to watch the sun fade along with the din of conversation. You might choose to dine al fresco at the majestic redwood slab table under the shelter of two ancient black walnut trees. And to end your day, unwind in the pool and spa as you gaze at the stars above – so bright in the dark night sky removed from the city lights. This is Tertulia at Amber Ridge.
A 5-mile drive along the tree-lined back roads brings you across the quaint Veterans Memorial Bridge to charming and historic Healdsburg surrounded by the three famed wine growing regions, Dry Creek, Alexander, and Russian River Valleys. This wonderful and eclectic community recently celebrated its 150th anniversary and has grown from a tranquil agrarian center to a top travel destination featuring fine dining, art, and antique galleries, specialty shops, spas, and a variety of interesting activities concentrated around the mature redwood tree-lined, central Plaza with fountain and gazebo. The surrounding areas are also rich with opportunities for hiking, biking, golfing, fishing, canoeing, kayaking, ballooning and exploring the beautiful northern California coast and redwoods.
With so much to do and so many things to see, you may want to extend your vacation plans for as long as you can, to take it all in and have a truly memorable and magical Healdsburg holiday.
Our guests are also welcomed at Healdsburg's premier Parkpoint Swim & Health Club with a heated lap pool, aqua aerobics pool, children's pool, as well as all the workout equipment and exercise classes you can enjoy, and day passes are available for purchase.
Four couples from Michigan flew to Sonoma for a few days of relaxation without kids. This location was incredibly serene, well maintained, and had everything you needed to enjoy the area. Don't make plans to go out as you will not want to leave once you arrive. It worked well to visit a winery in the a.m., and one over lunch. We were back to the house around 2:00 each day to enjoy the space and cooked in with the wonderful chef's kitchen.
The property was just perfect for a 5 night stay. We also rented the loft and we had plenty of room for our family. The bocci ball court was very nice, as was the long redwood table that was large enough for all guests. Also, the tables and chairs by the BBQ gave us another outdoor area to eat. On one cold night we ate in the house and once again the table and chairs were suffficient for the entire group. Pool was fantastic. I could not believe from the pictures of the facility that the landscaping and surrounding vinelyards could be as beautiful as they appear. Actually they are much better. We are just amazed at the beauty of the landscaping on the property and the vineyards that surround them.
Beautiful setting amongst the vineyards, very private yet close to town. A real effort has been made with the grounds and they are gorgeous. The double walnut tree canopy is a rare and beautiful feature. The house was spotless and while perhaps a bit formal, still reasonably comfortable. They could use a little nice furniture for the beautiful wrap-around porch deck. Gorgeous but totally absent anyplace to,sit and enjoy. Overall very worthwhile and would rent again.
It was an amazing property and the responsiveness of the office was great.
Other than attack of the wasps, this place is great. We have come to this same house the last 3 years and I hope to make it an annual tradition!
Great home, highly recommended. The combination of location, amenities, and access to wineries in the area made for a great trip.
home was very well maintained. The kitchen was a cooks dream.
The property management company fell short in my opinion. The person that was supposed to meet us at the property on the day we arrived, did not show up until the following day. That day we had called the PM company because we could not get the heat or jets in the spa. They dispatched a handyman immeditably out to fix, but the lady who was supposed to check us in arrived at the same time and sent him away. not only did she not fix the spa, but somehow she turned off the pool cleaning system. We called two days later as the water was getting full of leaves and bugs with the pool sweep not working. Same gal came out and basically said sorry, nothing she could do about it.
For a property this pricey, I would expect better service and response.
Home is beautiful. It was clean and well maintained.
Owner should change property management company.


Back in the day, DJ's spent hours hunting for music in local record shops flipping through vinyl bins, looking for that rare 12″ import that would mesmerize their dance floor during their next gig. Nowadays, we almost take the easy access to music for granted as with the click of button everyone has instant access to any piece of music from around the world which at one point was almost exclusive to DJ's.
In 1991, while visiting my favorite DJ shop in Montreal called "Pierre Musique" located on Ste. Catherine Street, the loudspeaker blaring on the sidewalk had this new track playing. I had no clue who it was but the synth stabs and piano chords had me hooked and I ran in to find out more. I was then introduced to "Everyday" by DJ Pierre and an uplifting energetic genre called "Italian (Italo) House." This track quickly became my number one and filled many dance floors for myself and many DJ's around the world.
Another track at that time which also did really well on the dance floor was called "Get On the Floor" which was a Black Box (Martha Walsh) "Gonna Make you Sweat" mashup with some deep bass lines and a very catchy organ chord progression also produced by DJ Pierre.
DJ Pierre's "Chicago House" sound continued to evolve and even today remains the foundation of many current house music tracks. In 1998, under the Strictly Rhythm label, DJ Pierre released an instrumental track as A.K.A. 'The Don' called "The Horn Song." Later that year, the track would return to the studio and recorded with the powerful vocals of the legendary Barbara Tucker and the now classic track was called "Everybody Dance".
For over 30 years, DJ Pierre has remained relevant and his music continues to play in clubs and on radio stations around the world. His music has a message, its own soul, and it stands the test of time. Even in 2018, his latest EP released on the Get Physical Music label has two tracks filled with Love – Meet Hate with Love Feat. Ann Nesby and I Love the Way. Both are very groovy with lots of extra "hot sauce" to add just the right amount of punch to drive you to a state of ecstasy. There is a true DJ Pierre classic foundation sound, layered with some deep piano chords and a very addictive bassline. The soulful rich vocals will transport you into time yet bring you right back in the moment with some subtle modern stabs.
Check out DJ Pierre on Beatport and his latest EP called "We Love" and the hot track Featuring Ann Nesby called "Meet Hate with Love.


A new autobiography of Dubai's ruler has claimed a secret meeting between Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid and Saddam Hussein took place, months before the 2003 invasion of Iraq.
Saddam Hussein, Mohammed bin Rashid, Dubai, UAE, Iraq.
Dubai ruler Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid al-Maktoum offered former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein asylum in the UAE's capital during a secret meeting months before the US-led invasion in 2003, a new autobiography of the UAE prime minister has revealed.
Speaking about the meeting for the first time in his book titled "My Story", Sheikh Mohammed says he offered the Iraqi strongman refuge on condition that he avoid conflict with the Americans.
The memoir describes an agitated and paranoid Saddam repeatedly changing seats during the meeting, which took place in the southern Iraqi city of Basra. According to Sheikh Mohammed, the Iraqi leader's restlessness was due to fear of being shot by a sniper.
Saddam reportedly turned down the Dubai ruler's offer during the five-hour meeting.
The autobiography also describes Sheikh Mohammed's dealings with the US in the run up to the 2003 invasion, which he says he worked to avert.
"I knew that the consequences of the war would be felt in the entire region, especially Iraq. It would be destructive. I tried to convince them [the Americans] to task Emiratis to carry out negotiations. We Arabs are alike in our traditions and understand how Saddam and his like think," he writes.
The release of Sheikh Mohammed's autobiography comes amid celebrations of the UAE prime minister and vice president's 50th year of service.
Earlier this month, Sheikh Mohammed issued a set of eight principles to ensure the "sustained progress" of Dubai.
"I call on all those in a position of responsibility in the Emirate of Dubai to abide by these principles, and direct them to devise mechanisms to ensure the implementation of these principles at all events," Sheikh Mohammed said in a government circular.
"We have summarised these principles for governing in this document to ensure the well-being of our people, the sustained progress of our nation, and the welfare of our future generations," the circular added.


Samsung has announced two new series of Android tablets at CES earlier today called the Galaxy NotePRO and the Galaxy TabPRO. As previously rumoured, the two new series also introduce a new 12.2-inch, 16:10 display with a resolution of 2560 x 1600. These tablets, which will run on Android 4.4 at launch, will also sport a new Android skin called Magazine UX.
The new tablet series signal Samsung's attempt at becoming the undisputed leader in tablets. The Galaxy TabPRO comes in three screen sizes: 12.2, 10.1 and 8.4 inches, while the Galaxy NotePRO is currently only offered in a 12.2-inch variant. Interestingly, both the NotePRO 12.2 and TabPRO 12.2 are essentially the same in almost every way, with the only difference being the addition of an integrated S Pen.
The four tablets also inherit the new design language first seen in the Galaxy Note 3 and Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 Edition, so there'll be lots of faux leather, and faux-metallic strips on the sides.
In addition, the Magazine UI for the two 12.2-inch tablets also come with a unique Multi Window setting, allowing users to open four apps at a time in four separate, resizable windows. The two smaller tablets only feature layered pop-out windows.
And, as is the norm with recent Samsung devices, all four tablets will also come with plenty of free subscription-based downloadable content, including Bitcasa, Bloomberg Newsweek+, Blurb, Dropbox, NY Times, Sketchbook Pro and Evernote.
The Samsung Galaxy NotePRO 12.2, and the three Galaxy TabPRO tablets will ship worldwide from Q1 2014. Retail prices, however, are not yet disclosed.

THE HISTORY OF ARCHITECTURE IN THE WEST.
A Brief Synopsis of Architectural History.
This is a very short history of architecture in the Western world, from prehistoric to modern times. The history includes no information about the wide variation and extensive parallel history of architecture in Russia, Korea, China, Tibet, Japan, Vietnam, Burma, Cambodia, Indonesia, Indian sub-Continent, Iran, the Arab World, Sub-Saharan Africa, Brazil, Peru, Mexico and Polynesia.
The Buildings Database and Architects' Works Database does include information on these other non-Western Architectural Zones.
This History is a view from the Western World.
Architecture is an art and Architectural styles overlap and do not start and stop at precise times, and the dates listed here are quite approximate and vary from region to region.
Architecture in Prehistoric Times 12,000 BC to 4,000 BC
Before recorded history, humans constructed stone circles, megaliths, inhabited and decorated caves and created temporary timber dwelling structures and villages. Mesopotamian Architecture
Architecture 4,000 BC to 400 BC.
In the valley of the Tigris and Euphrates and Persia, successive Empires constructed monumental brick and stone fortified Cities, Temples, and Mortuaries. The Hanging Gardens of Babylon were one of the Wonders of the Ancient World. The glorious architecture of Persepolis was swept aside by Alexander the Great's invasion.
Ancient Egyptian Architecture 3,500 BC to 900 BC
In ancient Egypt, powerful Pharaonic dynasties constructed monumental Pyramids, Temples, Mortuaries and Shrines. Much Pharaonic architecture was for the glorification of the Dead. The Great Pyramid remains the greatest building volume in the World.
Classical Greek Architecture 800 BC to 146 AD
From the rise of the ancient Greek City States, Greek Architects constructed finely conceived Classical stone Temples, Stadia, Necropoles, Theatres, and Palaces. The refinements of Greek architectural proportion and detail have never been surpassed. The influence of Greek architecture lasted 2,000 years in the West.
Roman Architecture 146 BC to 400 AD
After the fall of ancient Greece to the Roman Empire, the Romans adopted and further developed the Classical Style. They built brick & stone Temples, Triumphal Arches, Aqueducts, Stadia, Amphitheatres, Basilicas, Theatres, Palaces and Bridges, in great Cities connected by road networks. The organisation of Roman Cities rivalled modern cities and their services in its complexity.
Early Christian Architecture 375 AD to 800 AD
European architecture moved on from the Roman Era and developed the Roman basilica form and Classical circular temple form to create the early Christian Churches Roman mosaic work was continued to decorate the interiors of these churches. Byzantine Architecture 375 to 800 AD The Eastern Roman Empire developed into the Byzantine Empire which developed unique domed Churches utilizing the Late Roman pendentive support for the domes. These construction methods made possible very large unobstructed interior spaces. Mosaic decoration was highly developed in these buildings.
Romanesque Architecture 500 to 1200 AD
In post-Roman Western Europe a style based on the Roman arcaded structure developed into Romanesque architecture with Roman semi-circular rounded arches. This style was very prominent in Germany. In Italy, it lingered far into the Gothic era.
Gothic Architecture 1100 to 1450 AD
Innovative Medieval architects created the pointed arch under Islamic influence to free up the vaulting methods used in the great cathedrals of Europe. In the Gothic cathedral, large stained-glass panels filled huge windows, which lit and coloured the interior Gothic architecture was only grudgingly used in Italy. In France, daringly sparse construction was pushed to the point of structural collapse in the pursuit of impressive lightness.
Renaissance Architecture 1450 to 1700 AD
The fall of Byzantium and the diaspora of knowledge and scholars led to a return to classical ideals. The Renaissance architects studied the Roman and Greek World of architecture. This style spread from Portugal to Poland and was exported to the New World and Asia by Colonists. Mannerist Architecture 1550 to 1650 AD Mannerist Architecture was a rebellion against the strict replication of Classical Architecture. A chief proponent was Michelangelo and his work led on to the Baroque Era. It was found in Palaces, Academic Buildings and Churches where it gave new freedom of expression to space.
Baroque Architecture 1600 to 1730 AD
Baroque style was characterised by flowing lines and spaces, lightness, opulence and dramatic churches and palaces with dynamic plans and extravagant ornamentation and colours. The movement began in Italy and Spain and spread over all Europe. In Austria and South Germany, it achieved singular success. Again this style was exported to the New World and Asia by Colonists and the Jesuits.
Rococo Architecture 1650 to 1790 AD
The Rococo style was a further development of the Baroque Style and was greatly utilised in Germany, Austria and Eastern Europe as far as Russia. Much elaborate decoration and extravagant sweeping curves were added to buildings distinguished by effects of lightness and joy.
American Colonial Architecture 1600 to 1780 AD
European Colonists settled in the New World, in both North and South America. The architects borrowed ideas from their homelands to create their own local styles of architecture.
Georgian Architecture 1720 to 1800 AD
Georgian was an English variant of Renaissance architecture. It was exported to English Colonies including Australia, India and the American Colonies. The style created distinguished and orderly Houses, Churches and Public Buildings of all sorts. It facilitated large scale town-planning.
Neoclassical Architecture 1730 AD to 1925
In England and Germany particularly there was a renewed interest in ideas of the Renaissance architect Andrea Palladio. It inspired a return to the Classical forms in Europe, Russia and the United States.
Greek Revival Architecture 1790 to 1850 AD
Greek Revival architecture was an extension of Neoclassical architecture which was sparked by archaeological discoveries in the field of Earlier Classical Greek architecture. The style was used in Antebellum homes in the American South. It was very popular also in Scotland.
Neo-Gothic Architecture 1780 AD to 1930
In the Romantic Era Medieval Gothic ideas were re-introduced for a new range of building types like Universities, Railway Stations, Parliaments, Town Halls, and Industrial projects. In the early twentieth century, medieval Gothic ideas were applied to the surface of tall modern skyscrapers.
Victorian Architecture 1840 to 1900
Industrialisation brought innovations in architecture and transport. The Victorian-style includes Gothic Revival, Italianate, Queen Anne, Neo-Byzantine, Neo-Romanesque and French Second Empire styles The style change was assisted by the use of new materials like steel, iron, large span glass, concrete and generally cheaper manufacturing techniques.
Arts and Crafts Movement in Architecture 1860 to 1900
The Arts and Crafts was a late 19th-century philosophical development against the forces of industrialisation. The Arts and Crafts movement wanted to return to earlier simpler times. It revived interest in handicrafts and wanted a connection with the environment. It brought a new integration with painting and mosaic decoration. The Craftsman Bungalow style was an American development of this movement.
Art Nouveau Architecture 1890 to 1914
Art Nouveau was first expressed in France by fabrics and graphic design. The style spread to architecture and furniture in the 1890s and was disseminated from France across Europe. Art Nouveau buildings often have flowing ornamentation and free asymmetrical plans. In Spain, architect Antonio Gaudi was inspired by plant-like forms.
Beaux-Arts Architecture 1895 to 1925
Beaux-Arts Classicism was an Academically inspired development in architecture. Beaux-Arts architecture is characterised by order, symmetry, and staid design. It was used for institutions seeking grandiosity and impressive ornamentation.
Art Deco Architecture 1920 to 1940
Art Deco Architecture was a graphics inspired style developing out the Bauhaus style. Bold patterns and soaring lines created dramatic effects in the Jazz-Age. Distinctive examples are seen in Miami Beach.
20th Century Architecture 1900 to 2000
The Twentieth Century saw dramatic changes in materials, industrialisation and astonishing diversity of function. Building Processes were further industrialised to replace workforce reduced by Wars. Twentieth-century trends included Modernism and the Bauhaus school, Later Post-World-War-II developments included Brutalism, Deconstructionism, and Post-Modernism.
21st Century Architecture
The Twenty-First Century saw the crisis-inspired styles of Deconstructionism, Formalism, Structuralism, and Postmodernism continue to develop. The Century introduced to architecture an increased emphasis on energy-sustainable design concepts. There was an increase in cutting-edge architectural thought in Japan, South Korea, and China.
