title: "Regensburg Cathedral" content: Regensburg Cathedral The Regensburg Cathedral (), also known as St. Peter's Cathedral, is an example of important Gothic architecture within the German state of Bavaria. It is a landmark for the city of Regensburg, Germany, and the seat of the Catholic Diocese of Regensburg. The original church called Niedermünster, which was built west of where the current cathedral stands, was built around the year 700. Where it was positioned was some distance away from the Porta Praetoria which was a northern gate of Regensburg's old legionary fortress called "Castra Regina". Although it was a tomb for Erhard of Regensburg, it


title: "Regensburg Cathedral" content: was at first a chapel for a royal family (more specifically a ducal family). Niedermünster burned down in 1273, and because of the good economic status of Regensburg at the time a new cathedral was able to be constructed. The architect that took over supervision over the new cathedral in 1280 was trained in France, and because of this there was an incorporation of French Gothic architectural themes. This included a central nave that divides into three sections, buttresses, vaulting, and two towers over a facade. By 1320, the three choirs of this cathedral were ready for use, and between


title: "Regensburg Cathedral" content: 1385 and 1415 the main entrance to the West was completed. Most of edifice was finished around the year 1520, and this was also the opening year for the cathedral. One of the cathedral's builders, Matthew Roriczer, created and taught a way to take an elevation through a ground plan. This technique used to find the elevation does through through a square, and from this square he was able to develop the proportions of the cathedral's pinnacles. In the 17th century, the cupola located at the transept’s crossing, along with other sectors of the cathedral, were renovated in a Baroque


title: "Regensburg Cathedral" content: style. With this renovation, the frescoes that were created for the "All Saints' Chapel" were plastered over until being uncovered in the 19th century. Following this, between 1828 and 1841 the cathedral underwent a Neo-Gothic renovation, and this was commissioned by King Ludwig I of Bavaria. With this renovation the cupola was demolished and replaced with a quadripartite rib vault. Between 1859 and 1869, the towers as well as their spires were completed, and three years later the cathedral was fully complete. The state-run "Dombauhütte" (Cathedral building workshop) was founded in 1923, for the oversight, maintenance, and restoration of the


title: "Regensburg Cathedral" content: Regensburg Cathedral. One of the organization's restoration projects occurred during the 2000s. Another project the organization was involved in occurred in the 1980s, where the construction of the crypt mausoleum and archaeological exploration of the center nave were carried out. An unusual feature of Regensburg Cathedral is its separation from the structure of the older cloister. This separation came about when the church was rebuilt and displaced to the southwest of the earlier Romanesque cathedral. In testimony of that Romanesque precursor, the "Eselsturm" tower still stands on the north side of the cathedral; it was used in the past and


title: "Regensburg Cathedral" content: is still used to transport construction materials to the upper levels. A pulley remains in the west loft, and with it materials were lifted through an opening in the ceiling near the west portal. To the east of the cathedral is the state-run "Dombauhütte" (cathedral building workshop) which is responsible for the preservation of the structure. In contrast with many cathedral building workshops, neither modern machines nor exclusively old tools are used. Rather, tools are manufactured in the workshop itself. The "Virgin" and the "Angel Annunciate" are two notable, monumental sandstone statues located on two pillars of the west crossing


title: "Regensburg Cathedral" content: piers. Additionally there was a statue of a seated figure representing "St. Peter" within the main choir, but it is not there today. These sandstone sculptures were created by a man under the title of "Erminoldmeister," and during the 13th century he was a significant contributor to monumental sculptures in Germany. The two mentioned statues completed in 1280 that still exist within the cathedral today, one representing Mary(Mary, Mother of Jesus) and the other representing the angel Gabriel, juxtapose one another on their pillars. Mary's right hand is slightly raised toward the angel in greeting. In her left hand she


title: "Regensburg Cathedral" content: holds a book, into which she is pointing with her index finger. In addition to these statues, on the eastern pillars at the crossing are stone figures of Saint Peter and Saint Paul, which were installed in 1320 and 1360-1370 respectively. On the exterior there is a "Judensau" (Jews' sow) in the form of a sow and three Jews hanging onto its teats. The "Judensau" faces in the direction of the former Jewish quarter at the "Neupfarrplatz". In 2005 there was a controversy about the posting of an informational sign. The "All Saints' Chapel" in the cathedral cloister was built

It consists of a trefoiled apse and a middle room with an octagonal drum and pavillon roof. Most of the valuable stained glass windows were installed between 1220-1230 and 1320-1370, and the he windows of the west facade were only completed in the 19th century. Between 1967 and 1968, the windows of the left chancel, from the hand of the artist Professor Oberberger, were installed. He also produced the Pentecost window near the Northern transept and the clerestory windows in

Another particular feature are the five Gothic "Altars of Reservation". In the southern choir a new "Altar of Celebration" was built in 2004, and it was the work of Helmut Langhammer. The Regensburg Cathedral is the bishop's church and the principal church of the Regensburg diocese. It is also the home of the "Regensburger Domspatzen" ("cathedral sparrows"), a choir rich in tradition. The structure is considered the most significant Gothic work in southern Germany.

The trunk of the tree may become up to two metres wide, the branches becoming large, thick and rambling. It has rough tessellated grey-brown to red-brown bark that extends over the length of the trunk and branches. Adult leaves are disjunct, glossy, green, thick and concolorous with

The tree propagates readily from seeds. It is distinctive among bloodwoods for its very large buds and fruit, colloquially known as "honky" (or "honkey") "nuts", in Western Australia. The first accepted description of the species was published by John Lindley in "Edwards Botanical Register" (1841), from specimens in Robert Brown's collection near King George Sound in 1801. The species name was published in 1831 by Brown, but without an adequate description it was deemed to


title: "Corymbia calophylla" content: be "nomen nudum". Brown used a specimen grown at Kew to classify its family as Myrtaceae, and gave the specific epithet "calophylla" for what he regarded as the most beautiful leaves of a eucalypt, and leaf venation reminiscent of "Calophyllum", a tropical genus. The botanist Ferdinand Mueller placed the species with a series of 'bloodwoods' in 1884, based on characteristics of the bark. The 1920 work by J. H. Maiden, "Critical Revision of the Genus Eucalyptus", supported this arrangement. The current placement with the genus "Corymbia" resulted from a revision by K. D. Hill and L. A. S. Johnson in

They classified the group as section "Calophyllae" within the subgenus "Corymbia". It is related and somewhat similar to "Corymbia ficifolia", a red flowered species endemic to the same region. "C. calophylla" differs in being larger (to about high in the wild), having much larger buds and fruit, and flowers that are usually

Common names include marri and Port Gregory gum, and a long-standing usage has been red gum due to the red sap effusions often found on trunks. Red gum was recorded as a name in use by the Swan River colonists in 1835. Other species of "Corymbia" (then "Eucalyptus") were referred to as 'red gum', so to avoid ambiguity the Forestry Department of the Western Australian government nominated the extant name "marri" in the 1920s.

Both species prise marri seeds out of their woody capsule by manipulating it with the foot and lower mandible, and inserting the point of the upper mandible at openings in the seed-dispersing valve. The marks left by the lower mandible on the marri's nut distinguish the species of parrots and cockatoos. Plant species associated with "Corymbia calophylla" in the mid-story

The use as a remedy for diarrhoea by people of the region was noted by colonist Jane Dodds of Guildford, Western Australia, "as we do rhubarb but it does not answer for Europeans". Rosendo Salvado, the Spanish Bishop, contradicts this notion in reporting the efficacy of this remedy for a widespread problem in the new colony, taken in tea or as one or two small lozenges; he says the effect is produced in a day, but also warns that overdose can lead to paralysis. The use of the kino for tanning of animal skins was also adopted by European

Early mentions in literature often remark on the blood-like appearance of the kino that flowed from the marri trees in their new environment, the "Diary" of George Fletcher Moore recording its use in 1831. The colony began to export the product to England. Mueller gave a price at markets in London of twenty to twenty five pounds per ton in 1879. The value of the product was recognised by a 1922 investigation of the state's forestry. A method was patented to improve the use as a tanning agent for commercial applications, increasing its solubility and removing colour. The composition

Marri wood is used to make a variety of objects like doarks (sticks for knocking the tops off grass trees), kitjs (spears) and wannas (digging sticks). Marri timber is increasingly featured in modern household furniture. The timber is honey coloured and has a unique vein structure. However, it is not used in construction as the wood structure exhibits complex faults. Trees growing on alluvial soils contain less kino, producing timber with a wider range of applications. The value of marri lacking gum

This view was reaffirmed by the state conservator in 1957, although the usefulness and high amount of tannin in marri kino was also noted. The wood's strength was utilised in the nineteenth century for handles, spokes and other implements, and applications in building construction, but found to deteriorate when used below ground. While the timber is unsuitable for

The timber failed testing for use as railway sleepers. The blossoms from the marri can be used as a source of sugary syrup, which can be sucked directly from the flower or can be dipped into water to make a sweet drink. The colonial botanist James Drummond noted the preparation of this drink, called "numbit", in 1843. These blossoms also attract

These trees also attract birds which nest in the hollows, in which eggs can be found to eat. The large and distinctive fruit produced by the tree is featured in the literature of May Gibbs, whose childhood in Western Australia arguably influenced her series on 'Gumnut babies'. The Noongar poet Jack Davis celebrated the importance of marri in his poem 'The Red Gum and I'. The tree is able to be cultivated by sowing seeds directly at a site, or raised in pots to avoid damage to

The bridge is a part of the proposed Western Freeway that will link the Western Suburbs to Nariman Point in Mumbai's main business district. The bridge was commissioned by the Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation (MSRDC), and built by the Hindustan Construction Company. The first four of the eight lanes of the bridge were opened to the public on 30 June 2009. All eight lanes were opened on


title: "Bandra–Worli Sea Link" content: 24 March 2010. The sea-link reduces travel time between Bandra and Worli during peak hours from 20-30 minutes to 10 minutes. As of October 2009, BWSL had an average daily traffic of around 37,500 vehicles. Mahim Causeway was the only road connecting the western suburbs to Mumbai's central business district. This north-southwestern corridor became a bottleneck and was highly congested at peak hours. The "Western Freeway" project was proposed to span the entire western coastline of Mumbai to ease congestion. The Bandra–Worli Sea-Link, a bridge over Mahim Bay, was proposed as the first phase of this freeway system, offering an

But the project was subject to numerous public interest litigations, with the 5-year delay resulting in the cost escalating to ,<ref name="dna-https://www.youtube.com/watch?v"></ref> with the additional interest cost alone accounting for . The overall project consisted of five parts, contracted separately to accelerate the overall schedule. Package IV was the main phase, with the other packages providing supporting infrastructure. Surveys of the seabed under the planned route were conducted before the bridge design commenced. The marine geology underneath the bridge consists of basalts, volcanic tuffs and breccias with some intertrappean deposits. These are overlain by completely weathered rocks


title: "Bandra–Worli Sea Link" content: and residual soil. The strength of these rocks range from extremely weak to extremely strong and their conditions range from highly weathered and fractured, to fresh, massive and intact. The weathered rock beds are further overlain by transported soil, calcareous sandstone and thin bed of coarse grained conglomerate. The top of these strata are overlain by marine soil layer up to 9m thick consisting of dark brown clay silt with some fine sand overlying weathered, dark brown basaltic boulders embedded in the silt. BWSL was designed as the first cable-stayed bridge to be constructed in open seas in India. Due

Balancing these engineering complexities with the aesthetics of the bridge presented significant challenges for the project. The superstructure of the viaducts were the heaviest precast segments to be built in India. They were built using a span-by-span method using overhead gantry through a series of vertical and horizontal curves. The 20,000 tonne Bandra-end span of the bridge deck is supported by stay cables within a very close tolerance of deviations in plan

These will enable it to withstand earthquakes measuring up to 7.0 on the Richter scale. The construction of the bridge's structure presented major engineering challenges. These included the highly variable geotechnical conditions due to the underlying marine geology of the seabed. At times, even for plan area of a single pile had a highly uneven foundation bed. Further complications included the presence of a variable intertidal zone, with parts of the foundation bed exposed in low tide and submerged in high tide. The

These 604 piles were driven between 6m and 34m into the substrate in geotechnical conditions that varied from highly weathered volcanic material to massive high strength rocks. The largest pylons for the bridge consist of diamond shaped high concrete tower featuring flaring lower legs, converging upper legs, a unified tower head housing the stays and a continuously varying cross section along the height of tower. The bridge's pylon towers gradually decrease in cross-section with height. They


title: "Bandra–Worli Sea Link" content: have horizontal grooves every 3m in height, which permitted inserts. Vertical grooves in the circular sections require special form liners, as well as require attention for de-shuttering. The tower legs are inclined in two directions, which presented challenges in alignment and climbing of soldiers. Construction joints were permitted at 3m intervals only. To build the pylons, Doka of Austria was commissioned to build a custom automatic climbing shutter formwork system, based on their SKE-100 automatic climbing shutter system. This was fabricated on site and employed to execute all tower leg lifts below deck level. The pre-cast yard was located on


title: "Bandra–Worli Sea Link" content: reclaimed land. The yard catered to casting, storing and handling of 2342 concrete-steel pre-cast segments for the project. The storage capacity requirement of the yard was about 470 precast segments. As the area available was limited, the segments were stored in stacks of up to three layers. BWSL consists of twin continuous concrete box girder bridge sections for traffic in each direction. Each bridge section, except at the cable-stayed portion, is supported on piers typically spaced apart. Each section is designed to support four lanes of traffic with break-down lanes and concrete barriers. Sections also provide for service side-walks on

No specific names have come down to us of those who supported Carloman, although they appear to have been mostly from Lotharingia and Flanders. Before his defiance of his father amounted to anything, he was arrested, tried and imprisoned at Senlis. His abbacies were forfeited. Pope Hadrian II unsuccessfully intervened to try to secure Carloman's release, but the latter escaped to Flanders, where he gathered a small army. The bishops of the province of Reims then met under the leadership of Archbishop Hincmar

The new building was designed by the regional master builder Carl Adolf Canzler in the Renaissance Revival style to house the royal "Collection of Antique and Modern Sculptures". The building was named after the Saxonian King Albert who reigned at the time. In 1889, the Sculpture Collection was moved in and has since remained there. Damaged in the February 13, 1945 bombing of Dresden in World War II, the Albertinum was restored by 1953. Besides the Sculpture Collection, the Albertinum has housed the New Masters Gallery ("Galerie Neue Meister") in the upper rooms since 1965. It was also the

The true reason for Professor Bergman's absence was unsatisfactory salary and contract negotiations between actor Barry Morse and the show's producers. Morse initially wished to retain salary and benefits commensurate with that which he received in series one, although he eventually agreed to a significant decrease (33 percent less) in pay and elimination of benefits (chauffeur service to and from the studio). Even in light of Morse's concessions, the producers declined to renew the actor's contract indicating that during the short negotiation period, other plans had been made and his character had been eliminated from the show.

The species is distributed along the western coast of North America, ranging from Alaska in the north to the Gulf of California in the south, inhabiting both offshore and inshore environments. The Pacific jack mackerel is a moderately large fish, growing to a maximum recorded length of 81 cm, although commonly seen below 55 cm. It is very similar in appearance to other members of its genus,

Pacific jack mackerel travel in large schools, ranging up to 600 miles offshore and to depths of 400 m, generally moving through the upper part of the water column. The Pacific jack mackerel is distributed through the eastern Pacific Ocean from Alaska in the north, south to the western North American seaboard to the Baja California peninsula in the Gulf of California. It has been reported as far south as the Galápagos Islands, but at these latitudes it would be

Pacific jack mackerel occur in both pelagic and inshore environments, often venturing up to 600 miles offshore and to known depths of 400 m. In more coastal environments, they are known to inhabit bays and very shallow waters. The Pacific jack mackerel is very similar to all other members of "Trachurus" and a number of other carangid genera, having an elongated, slightly compressed body with both the dorsal and ventral profiles of the body having the same degree of curvature. It is a medium- to large-sized fish, growing


title: "Pacific jack mackerel" content: to a maximum known length of 81 cm (32 in), although more common at below 55 cm. The two separate dorsal fins are composed of eight spines and one spine followed by 31 to 35 soft rays, respectively. The anal fin is composed of two spines anteriorly detached followed by one spine connected to 26 to 30 soft rays. In some larger individuals, the last few rays at the posterior of the soft dorsal and anal fins are almost entirely separate from the rest of the fin, forming finlets. The caudal fin is strongly forked, typical amongst the Carangidae, while


title: "Pacific jack mackerel" content: the ventral fin consists of one spine and five soft rays. The pectoral fin terminates before the front of the anal fin, having 22 to 24 rays in total. The lateral line dips strongly after the pectoral fin, having 50 to 53 scales on the upper section and 43 to 52 keeled scutes posteriorly. The species' teeth are minute, with a patch of teeth on the tongue in a narrow club-shaped strip. There are 24 vertebrae in total. Pacific jack mackerel are metallic blue to olive-green dorsally, becoming more silvery ventrally, before transitioning to a white belly. The top of


title: "Pacific jack mackerel" content: the head and area near eye is quite dark with a dark spot on the upper rear of the gill cover. The fins are mostly hyaline to dusky, although caudal fin may be yellow to reddish. Pacific jack mackerel are fished commercially as well as for sport. They are often caught on baited hook from piers and boats, and also while salmon trolling. Commercial fishing occurs along the coast. Large individuals often move inshore and north in the summer. Pacific jack mackerel is canned in the same manner as salmon. Fish are cleaned, gutted and finned, then packed into cans


title: "Pacific jack mackerel" content: with salt and water. Before 1947, the pacific jack mackerel was of minor importance. It was referred to as horse mackerel, and had little market appeal. However, in 1948, the US Food and Drug Administration decided to allow the use of "jack mackerel" on all labeling, and it affected its appeal. The new label, combined with low catches of Pacific sardine in 1947-48 and increased catches of pacific jack mackerel during the same time, resulted in the fish gaining importance. In the past, mackerel consumption was considered a sign of low income. In the American segregated Southern states, it was


title: "Pacific jack mackerel" content: often associated with black Americans. Today, most of these stereotypes are gone. Pacific jack mackerel tastes similar to canned sardines. It may be used interchangeably with salmon or tuna in recipes. Jack mackerel is considered safer to consume than tuna because it is a smaller fish, and not a top predator, thus avoiding accumulation of heavy metals such as mercury. The Pacific jack mackerel is classified within the genus "Trachurus", commonly known as the horse mackerels or jack mackerels. "Trachurus" is part of the jack family Carangidae, a group of perciform fish in the suborder Percoidei. Recent genetic studies have


title: "Pacific jack mackerel" content: divided the Carangidae into four subfamilies, with the genus "Trachurus" falling into the 'Caranginae' (or tribe Carangini), being most closely related to the 'scads' of the genera "Decapterus" and "Selar". The species was first scientifically described by William Orville Ayres in 1855 based on the holotype specimen taken from San Francisco Bay, California. He named the species "Caranx symmetricus", correctly identifying its relationship to the jacks, but incorporating it into what was later found to be the wrong genus. The fish was redescribed in 1944 under a different name, "Decapterus polyaspis", from a specimen caught in Oregon, which under the


title: "Pacific jack mackerel" content: ICZN rules classifies as a junior synonym, and it is therefore discarded. In 1983, "C. symmetricus" was transferred to "Trachurus symmetricus" by William N. Eschmeyer and Earl Herald. The species has twice been treated as a subspecies; once as "Trachurus picturatus symmetricus" (a subspecies of the blue jack mackerel), and the second more commonly used subspecies of "Trachurus symmetricus symmetricus". For many years, the latter was accepted as a valid combination, with "Trachurus symmetricus murphyi" considered to be a southern subspecies population. Mitochondrial DNA analysis has now confirmed these subspecies to be separate species, with "T. s. murphyi" now simply
