Jan 4, 2020Winter Flower Bomb Looks to Highlight Everett Square Bus Stop - Everett Independent
On
* average, the noscript tag is called from less than 1% of internet
* users.
*/--
Adrian Gill, of Ad Hoc Industries, is serving
as the creative director for the BRT initiative and said the Winter Flower Bomb
will be a way to generate excitement for something that typically isn’t
exciting – waiting for the bus.
“We really thought the last Flower Bomb was
super successful and we wanted to ty to do a winter version that could stay up
longer,” he said. “The last one was only up three days because of the nature of
fresh-cut flowers. This one will be made with dried flowers and will stay up at
least a month. That’s the big difference between the two of them. Because this
one will go in over the winter, it’s going to have more of a winter super-feel
to it.”
Gill said Price would be using dried flowers,
birch branches and LED lights at night.
The idea isn’t just to delight in the beauty
of seasonal flowers, but to generate excitement for the bus and the idea of
enhancing it with BRT improvements like dedicated bus lanes and level boarding.
“It’s really going to be a cerebral thing and
the reason why we chose this idea for a Flower Bomb is because flowers are a
universal sign of giving and crosses all barriers – whether class, politics or
language,” said Gill. “No matter what, we can all speak with the language of
flowers. We thank the mayor and how much he has already done. Now we can bring
something exciting to public transportation. It’s good to do something
celebratory with BRT. It’s not only the metrics. Any time we can improve the experience
for bus riders, it’s a good thing.
“There are only so many times you can go to
the public and talk about BRT before it becomes boring,” he continued. “ Now we
have an opportunity to talk about level boarding and other BRT concepts with an
interesting frame – flowers.”
The event on Wednesday, Dec. 18, will take
place at 11 a.m. in Everett Square.

Sep 19, 2019Potentially Deadly Toxic Plant Found Blooming On NYC Sidewalks - CBS Pittsburgh
New York City Parks Commissioner Adrian Benepe.
Benepe spotted the plant during a bike ride this weekend.
He says he’s seen many more just like it around the city.
“It’s a plant that spreads very quickly through seeds and will colonize disturbed soil,” he said. “It’s kind of what happens if you create a planting bed and don’t maintain it.”

Benepe says the plant is dangerous.
“If a child were to ingest one of those seed pods, it could be very serious complications including death,” he said.
Another major concern is the possible impact on drug users.
“People’s unintelligent decision for trying to experiment with the plant, that’s where you find most cases of poisonings,” said Marc Hachadourian of the New York Botanical Gardens.
Despite the danger level, the New York Botanical Garden says there’s no reason to be alarmed. Instead, it encourages people to just be aware and alert if they come across it.
“This isn’t an invasion of poisonous plants that are out to get us,” said Hachadourian. “There are many poisonous plants that are found in New York City.”
Back at Columbus and 93rd, that’s little comfort to those passing by.
“Get it out as quickly as possible – like, today,” said Bongiovanni.
“I don’t care whose jurisdiction it is, it needs to be taken care of right away,” said Dhostino.
Exactly who is responsible for this plant is still a mystery, but the city says it has now removed it.
The city says its gardeners infrequently find jimsonweed in city parks, but when they do, they remove and dispose of it immediately.

Perez III; the return of former queens; centerpieces of geraniums and light pink roses; and the legacy of royalty, which her majesty Emma will behold and experience through the years.InstallationThe Metairie Country Club was the site for the night when the Rotary Club of Metairie held its 66th annual installation of officers. Prominent was the motto, “Service Above Self” in the dining room that was aglow with candles and blooming white orchids. Past cocktails, master of ceremonies Jim Ray (with Janice) welcomed everyone and introduced outgoing President Randy Martin (with Gayle), who reported on the achievements of the year. Guests then dined on turtle soup, a main course choice and pecan pie.Honored during the formalities was Citizen of the Year, Messina’s Catering and Events, which sponsors the annual Thanksgiving lunch for the Harahan Senior Citizens. From the Jefferson Parish Sheriff’s Office, were honorees Deputy Elizabeth Walker from the 1st district and Detective Breadon Cohen, 4th district. Accompanying them, in turn, were Lt. Andrew Walsdorf and Lt. Brian Karcher.

May 31, 2019Holland's Keukenhof Gardens—the Largest Flower Garden in the World—Is the Perfect Spring Destination - Mental Floss
October 2009. It officially opened to the public on January 4, 2010.
3. The Burj Khalifa was designed to resemble a flower.
Adrian Smith, the architect behind the Burj Khalifa, designed the building to resemble the Spider Lily, a regional desert flower.
4. The Burj Khalifa houses a massive art collection.
Any building as large as the Burj Khalifa is bound to have a lot of wall space to fill. Altogether, the building’s art collection is enormous: There are more than 1000 pieces from some of the world’s best-known artists (with a focus on Middle Eastern artists) hanging within the property—many of them specifically commissioned for the building.
5. You don’t have to be in Dubai to admire the Burj Khalifa’s architecture.
One of the most recognizable architectural features of the Burj Khalifa is the “telescopic” spire that tops it, which is made from more than 4000 tons of steel. On a clear day, that spire can be seen from up to 60 miles away.
6. The spire is a controversial element of the Burj Khalifa.
Though the Burj Khalifa’s spire is one of its most defining features (and has a practical use: housing the building’s communications equipment), in architectural circles, it’s somewhat controversial—as are spires in general.
In 2013, the Chicago-based Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat issued a report on what they deemed “vanity spires,” claiming that these uninhabited spaces are simply used to make a building stand that much taller. According to the report, 60 percent of the world’s tallest buildings wouldn’t be so tall at all without their spires. The Burj Khalifa in particular would lose 700 feet of its height.
7. The Burj Khalifa is home to one of the fastest elevators in the world.
[embedded content]
It makes sense that the world’s tallest building would need to keep its visitors moving, and quickly. While it doesn’t hold the record for the fastest elevator, it reportedly ranks third (moving at a speed of 22 mph). It takes just one minute to get from the ground floor to the observation deck on the 124th floor.
8. The Burj Khalifa holds a number of world records.
Yes, it's world’s tallest building, but the Burj Khalifa holds a number of other world records, too. According to CNN, these additional superlatives include: the world’s tallest freestanding structure, the highest number of stories, and the highest occupied floor.
9. The Burj Khalifa may not be the world’s tallest building for much longer.
While the Burj Khalifa has enjoyed a nearly 10-year run as the world’s tallest building, it’...
