The Prague astronomical clock is a medieval astronomical clock attached to the Old Town Hall in Prague, the capital of the Czech Republic.

The clock was first installed in 1410, making it the third-oldest astronomical clock in the world and the oldest clock still in operation.

The clock mechanism has three main components – the astronomical dial, representing the position of the Sun and Moon in the sky and displaying various astronomical details; statues of various Catholic saints stand on either side of the clock; "The Walk of the Apostles", an hourly show of moving Apostle figures and other sculptures, notably a figure of a skeleton that represents Death, striking the time; and a calendar dial with medallions representing the months. According to local legend, the city will suffer if the clock is neglected and its good operation is placed in jeopardy; a ghost, mounted on the clock, was supposed to nod its head in confirmation. According to the legend, the only hope was represented by a boy born on New Year's night.

I guess being a womanizer and a modelizer at the same time leaves him two steps beyond.

Calgary City Hall and Calgary Municipal Building (No. 2)

Calgary City Hall (often called Old City Hall or Historic City Hall), is the seat of government for Calgary City Council, located in the city's downtown core of Calgary, Alberta, Canada. The historic building completed in 1911 serves as the offices for Calgary City Council, consisting of the office of the Mayor, fourteen Councillors and municipal Clerk. Calgary City Hall originally housed the municipal council and portions of administration from its completion in 1911 until the construction of the Calgary Municipal Building adjacent to Old City Hall in 1985, which currently houses the offices of 2,000 civic administrators.

Calgary City Hall is designated a National Historic Sites of Canada, as well as a Provincial Historical Resource, and Municipal Historical Resource.

Calgary City Hall was designed by architect William M. Dodd to reflect Calgary's role as the urban centre in Southern Alberta. Dodd was known partnering with Edward Collis Hopkins to design Regina City Hall (which was demolished in 1965), along with his other designs in Calgary caught the attention of Calgary City Council. Dodd designed the building to embody Richardsonian Romanesque architectural style, with a symmetrical form with an elevated main floor, and includes a single clock tower with a Seth Thomas Clock installed, heavy stone exterior walls, bands of recessed windows, a recessed main entrance, stone arches and keystones above many windows and entries carved with the City's coat-of-arms. Notable interior elements include a highly ornamental cast-iron staircase and sky-lit rotundas.

Does Noir Spiderman start making brief friends with other random civillians, the same way other Spiderpeople do? I know that he's more villainized than other versions, but surely a few people start to take notice of his attempts to protect people. Implying he's universally hated feels both insurmountably bleak and mean to the city itself - the people of New York aren't all one-note.

What about the people getting in trouble with cops, or those walking home at night in the dark? The man down on his luck doing stunts for money that he catches on an ill-fated climb that slipped? The photographers he joins at the top of a skycraper? The factory-workers staging protests, a once-fellow journalist being tailed?

Do some of them learn to smile when they see him, knowing helps arrived, and does he wave back?

this is a huge and historic moment in the political history of South Africa. since the end of Apartheid, we've been under what's called "Dominant Party Rule". the ANC has had an absolute majority for 30 years and could basically rule as they pleased. but now, with no majority in parliament, for the first time, parties will have to come together : new frameworks have been established to form a government, new procedures implemented to pass legislation. the media is hailing it as a New Era for the country

but because there was a fire in the Houses of Parliament two years ago and the buildings are still inaccessible, all these historic signings and announcements are happening in odd locations. the first parliamentary session of the new administration took place in the convention centre. ya know, the same place they host Comic Con
