Nautilus pompilius Linné 4 to 8". Chambered Nautilus A center slice of the shell clearly shows remnants of the siphonal canal, which pierces the series of gas-filled chambers used by this mollusk in balancing itself as it roams the ocean depths. Argonauta nodossa 3 to 8". Paper Nautilus The argonaut resembles the octopus, and does not inhabit this "shell." Formed by the female argonaut, the thin, calciferous shell is a case which she constructs with special tentacles, and is used to contain her eggs, which incubate within it. Once the eggs have hatched, the shell serves no purpose. Argonauts are found throughout the world in warm seas.

Resident evil Omegaverse AU

Remember! im not a English mother language! so if you find some error pls tell me and i correct the error!

Omegaverse is one of my favorite drugs, if you add Mpreg you give me a very big joy! So i have decide to make my personal version of Omegaverse in Re fandom!

Some Info is inspired from @sparkie96 works!

<hr>

!!! IMPORTANT NOTE !!!

My omegaverse is slightly different than most works I've gotten my hands on! Omega males DO NOT own a vagina! but the entrance to the reproductive system is located in the rectal area! When they go into pre-heat they will have very strong abdominal cramps because the canal has a muscle that "moves" when they go into heat, to close the digestive tract and open the reproductive canal, these cramps will also be there after the heat which will last about 2/3 days (together with the pre heat and the post heat it will last approximately 6/7 days). The look doesn't differ much! the bicinii is slightly wider than normal! They won't keep them growing when pregnant! his pecs will simply swell and that's it!

<hr>

Omegaverse in RE fandom!

In the world of Resident evil, omegas are really rare (3% of the entire world population), because they have particularly difficult genes to breed!, but they are not seen as weak, needy and that must be protected. Law enforcement agencies such as Police, Special Forces and others seek them out for use in rescue missions, because due to their nature they are able to calm down and help kidnap victims, such as in the case of Ashley's kidnapping. They are trained to resist psychologically to pheromones of any kind, and to bear severe physical and psychological trauma. Betas are the highest percentage of all (about 60% of the world population), they are very normal humans, pheromones do not affect them at all, and they only use them to recognize people. Alphas make up a good percentage, but not as much as betas (about 30%), they are men who are relatively strong and dedicated to protecting the people they love.

Finished all this rant here is the list of all the characters of RE and their secondary genre!

<hr>

Rebecca Chambers: Alpha(I loved his personality in RE Vendetta! and when i scolded the two kids arguing i adored her and my mind decided she was alpha!)

Billy Coen: Beta

Albert Wesker: Alpha(Albert is an "old school" alpha, where the omegas are just slaves and shouldn't exist!)

William Birkin: Beta

Chris Redfield: Alpha

Jill Valentine: Alpha

Barry Burton: Alpha

Brad Vickers: Beta

Leon S. Kennedy: Omega/Alpha/Beta(Its genre depends a lot on the plot! In some stories he is a beta/alpha turned into an Omega, only to have to continue taking "steroids" to return to alpha or appear as a beta!)

Claire Redfield: Beta/alpha( I'm uncertain)

Ada Wong: beta

Sherry Birkin: Beta/Alpha

Hunk: beta(???)

Carlos Oliveira: Omega

Mikhail Viktor: Alpha

Nikolai Zinoviev: Beta

Steve Burnside: Beta/Omega

Ashley Graham: Omega/Beta

Ingrid Hunnigan: Alpha

Jack Krauser:Alpha(When he wasn't a jerk he was a regular alpha, when he wanted his lookout he started thinking old fashioned like Wesker.)

Parker Luciani: Beta

Keith Lumley: Beta

Jessica Sherawat: Beta

Quint Cetcham: Beta

Raymond Vester: Beta

Sheva Alomar: Alpha/Beta

Josh Stone: Beta

Excella Gionne: Beta

Moira Burton: Beta

Natalia Korda: Genderless(Because of the experiments it doesn't have a secondary genre, it's marked as beta, but I don't have it!)

Alex Wesker: Alpha(like Albert)

Jake Muller: Alpha

Helena Harper: Alpha

Piers Nivans: Beta

Carla Radames: Beta

Ethan Winters: Omega

Mia Winters: Alpha

Clancy Jarvis: Beta

Zoe Baker: Alpha

Joe Baker: Alpha

Marguerite Baker: Beta

Lucas Baker: Beta

If I have forgotten someone you are more than justified in kicking me to add it!

<hr>

Forgot to mention, that large family groups or very close friends are referred to as a "Pack", and it is normal for members of this pack to help others in need! but a person can safely decide not to join any of these packs and remain alone!

<hr>

ps, you are more than welcome to take and use these combinations or info! at least remember to give me some credit, thanks!

Lucia Bosé (1931-2020) by Truus, Bob & Jan too! Italian postcard by Bromofoto, Milano, no. 270. Today, 23 March 2020, Italian actress Lucia Bosé passed away in Brieva, Spain. She died of pneumonia caused by the coronavirus. Bosé was famous for her films from the 1950s with a.o. Giuseppe De Santis and Michelangelo Antonioni. In the same years and after she also worked with other famous directors such as Juan Bardem, Luis Buñuel, the Taviani brothers, Liliane Cavani, Francesco Rosi, and Ferzan Özpetek. Lucie Bosé was 89. Lucia Bosè was born Lucia Borloni in Milan, Italy in 1931. She comes from a peasant and working-class family and began to work at the age of twelve years. She was first a messenger for a law firm, later a clerk in Milan's fine pastry shop Galli. In 1947 she participated in the first Miss Italy pageant, where she was able to win against competitors like Gianna Maria Canale, Eleonora Rossi Drago, and Gina Lollobrigida. Had Giuseppe De Santis still preferred Silvana Mangano for Riso amaro/Bitter Rice (1949), he chose Bosè for his next film, Non c'è pace tra gli ulivi/No peace among the olive trees (Giuseppe De Santis, 1950), a typical Neorealist film about a poor shepherd (Raf Vallone) who tries steal back his sheep stolen from him while he was at war. In the same year, Bosé starred opposite Massimo Girotti in the well-to-do set, modernist crime story and drama Cronaca di un amore/Story of a love affair (Michelangelo Antonioni, 1950). It was Antonioni's first full length feature film, about an adulterous couple plotting to kill her husband. Numerous screen engagements followed. Antonioni cast her again in La signora senza camelie/The Lady Without Camelias (Michelangelo Antonioni, 1953) about a newly discovered starlet and her experiences in the Italian cinema. Juan Bardem cast her in Muerte di un ciclista/Death of a Cyclist (1955) about an adulterous couple that runs over a cyclist and leaves him to die. Bosé also acted in Francesco Maselli's debut Gli sbandati/The Abandoned (1955) and Luis Buñuel's Cela s'appelle l'aurore/That Is the Dawn (1956). In 1955 Lucia Bosè married Luis Miguel Dominguín, a five years older, popular Spanish bullfighter and occasional actor. From the marriage, which ended in divorce in 1967, sprang three children, two of whom - Paola Dominguin and Miguel Bosé - are also active as actors. Luchino Visconti was godfather to her son Miguel, Pablo Picasso to her daughter Paola. At the time, Lucia Bosè lived in Spain and put her career on halt, except for a sporadic appearance in Le testament d'Orphée/Testament of Orpheus (Jean Cocteau, 1959). In 1968 Bosé returned to film acting after almost a ten-year break and worked first in Spain and afterward in Italy. There she worked among others in Federico Fellini's Satyricon (1969), the Taviani Brothers' Sotto il segno dello scorpione/Under the Sign of Scorpio (1969), and Liliana Cavani's L'ospite/The Guest (1972). Other interesting films with her were Nathalie Granger (Marguerite Duras, 1972), Lumière (Jeanne Moreau, 1976) and Violanta (Daniel Schmid, 1977). After 1978, she acted significantly less but remained active, also on television. She had memorable film performances in Cronaca di una morte annunciata/Chronicle of a Death Foretold (Francesco Rosi, 1987) starring Rupert Everett, El niño de la Luna/Moon Child (Agustí Villaronga, 1989), Harem suaré/Harem (Ferzan Özpetek, 1999) and I vicerè/The Viceroy (Roberto Faenza, 2007). Her most recent screen appearance was in Alfonsina y el mar/One more time (Pablo Benedetti, David Sordella, 2013), as an 80-year-old actress who returns to the small Chilean town of her youth to fulfill her father's dream of creating a TV channel in a place which has never known television.

Chicago Daily News Building 1

1929, Holabird & Root, Architects

400 West Madison Street, Chicago, Illinois

By Roger Jones

Chicago Daily News Building rendering. Source: Ryerson and Burnham Library, Art Institute of Chicago

The former CHICAGO DAILY NEWS BUILDING, now called Riverside Plaza, at 400 W. Madison St., occupies the blocks bounded by W. Washington, N. Canal, W. Madison, and the Chicago River. The building was completed in 1929 and designed by Holabird and Root (until 1927 Holabird and Roche), and dedicated on July 8, 1929. Frank E. Brown was the engineer. The structure stands 26 stories high, with three basements, on rock caissons. The Daily News moved from its former structure at 15 N. Wells St.

The building was notable for its recognition of the Chicago River as an important urban feature, and was the first to feature a large open plaza facing the river. The Daily News Building faces the Civic Opera House directly across the river.

The Daily News had been founded in 1875, and under the ownership of Victor Lawson, had opened one of the first foreign news bureaus among U.S. newspapers. On Lawson's death in 1925, the company was purchased by Walter A. Strong, who soon envisioned a much larger building to house the enterprise.

The new Daily News building, featuring a plaza fronting the Chicago River, was located just east of the central downtown area. Strong desired a building in the "modern style," which would later become known as art deco. In contrast to the Chicago Tribune building, built in the highly decorated Gothic style, the Daily News building soared upward from its base, its relatively thin central slab rising above a base ornamented with carved references to printing, publishing, and the arts.

From the river plaza, two projecting arms gave the building a sphinx-like appearance, the southern arm providing the entrance to a long grand concourse stretching the width of the building, and leading to a bridge linking the Daily News to the Chicago and Northwestern Passenger Station across Canal Street.

The following images were published in The Western Architect, Volume XXXVII Number 8, August 1929, with a description by John Holabird, Holabird & Root, Architects, Chicago (p. 133):

Additional Views:

Exterior bas relief panels:

The bas relief panels on the building's exterior were executed by Alvin Meyer, sculptor. These included panels over the projecting pavilions, depictions of famous printers over the first floor, and other reliefs, some representing printers' marks, in the spandrels of the upper floors.

Grand Concourse:

Above the concourse originally stretched a ceiling mural of 18 x 80 feet, painted by artist John Warner Norton, on the theme "Gathering the News, Printing the News, Transporting the News." Reporter Marguerite Williams described the mural:

A new kind of mural painting, born of the symbols of modern life and the magnitude of modern building....There, on the ceiling of a thoroughfare 180 feet long, will be read the romance of the modern newspaper ingeniously told by multifarious shapes and symbols - animate and mechanistic. Rhythmic teamwork of man and machine that makes the modern newspaper possible and the paraphernalia of news-gathering that has shrunk the globe into one neighborhood.

Unfortunately, the mural is no longer visible; it was removed from the ceiling in 1993, due to concerns over its condition, and after one of its 11 panels had come loose due to water damage. Originally intended to be restored and placed back in its original position, the sections of mural have languished in temperature-controlled storage ever since. It is doubtful whether the complete project will be viewed again in its full version, to be admired from below as it had been during its 63-year installation.

West Quebec: La Ville de Montréal

It rained overnight so once more, I put everything wet in the car and drove to Montreal, thereby passing the 10,000km milestone... incredible how big this country is! 👀 Even though I was approaching the city in morning rush hour, until the very end there were hardly any cars on the road, and in any case people drive very politely In Quebec, moving to the right after having bypassed and hardly exceeding 110 kmh.... I guess a benefit of having lived in Toronto for so long is that I'll find all other roads a breeze to drive on 😁

First order of business; laundry in my first- ever visit to a laundromat, which was surprisingly modern and clean/inviting, whilst I dried the tent on the parking lot. I got a few sideways looks when I put everything on the tarmac and hung it off my car (which is perfect for drying stuff due to the metal absorbing the sun's heat), but I think I didn't look enough of a homeless person 😜 for people to start worrying.

I met vendor-turned-friend Nabil for lunch at an Italian restaurant in the neighbourhood of Lachine, which is a calm enclave on the shores of the river, seeming to be far away from the bustling city. Lunch and conversation with Nabil were great as always when I meet him 😘 after which I walked around the old and current Lachine canal, that astoundingly used to be the only route for shipping to reach the Great Lakes until the St Lawrence Seaway was opened in 1959.

Only 20 minutes away I'm smack downtown so after having quickly checked in & dropped my car at Travelodge ($41 parking!), I went on foot to Vieux Montreal, which despite it being over-touristy remains my favourite part of the city. In the beautiful cathedral there's a chapel dedicated to Marguerite d'Youville, who was the first Canadian-born saint, recognized for her work to help the poor. A bit later I walked by the cloister of the Grey Nuns where she died, where is explained that the name Grey is meant in French as "tipsy" instead of the colour, as a reference to her late husband's alcohol trafficking... the things you learn! 😄

I also walked by an outdoor museum exposition about the archaeological remains found underneath of the first stone market building in Canada that was used as temporary seat for the house of Parliament until it burnt to the ground after which the capital moved to Ottawa... I love it when exhibits are made easily accessible so that passers-by like me can pick up a few nuggets of local history!

Just next to the old city, I hadn't been before to the Grand Quay where the port has been rejuvenated to provide a place for tourists and locals alike to enjoy the river views with some interesting artwork and photo opps of the skyline. The metal wall-art on the right is meant to represent the sun as symbol of tourism and hospitality 😊

After all the walking, I was happy to sit down for a beer at rooftop patio Nellegan which has great views of the city, and then top it off with a glass of sangria & greek dips on another patio. On the walk home, I sat for a while on a square listening to a cello player... great city experience!

No wildlife, SUPs or hikes in Montreal ;)

distance driven this week: 740km

The thing that's between us is fascination, and the fascination resides in our being alike. Whether you're a man or a woman, the fascination resides in finding out that we're alike.
