A Short History of Georgian Architecture
A SHORT HISTORY OF GEORGIAN ARCHITECTURE Georgia is situated on the isthmus between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea. In the north it is bounded by the Main Caucasian Range, forming the frontier with Russia, Azerbaijan to the east and in the south by Armenia and Turkey. Geographically Georgia is the meeting place of the European and Asian continents and is located at the crossroads of western and eastern cultures. In classical sources eastern Georgia is called Iberia or Caucasian Iberia, while western Georgia was known to Greeks and Romans as Colchis. Georgia has an elongated form from east to west. Approximately in the centre in the Great Caucasian range extends downwards to the south Surami range, bisecting the country into western and eastern parts. Although this range is not high, it produces different climates on its western and eastern sides. In the western part the climate is milder and on the sea coast sub-tropical with frequent rains, while the eastern part is typically dry. Figure 1 Map of Georgia Georgian vernacular architecture The different climates in western and eastern Georgia, together with distinct local building materials and various cultural differences creates a diverse range of vernacular architectural styles. In western Georgia, because the climate is mild and the region has abundance of timber, vernacular architecture is characterised by timber buildings. Surrounding the timber houses are lawns and decorative trees, which rarely found in the rest of the country. The population and hamlets scattered in the landscape. In eastern Georgia, vernacular architecture is typified by Darbazi, a type of masonry building partially cut into ground and roofed by timber or stone (rarely) constructions known as Darbazi, from which the type derives its name. -

How to Install Dry-Laid Flagstone Complete Step by Step “How-To
How To Install Dry-Laid Flagstone Patio or Walkway Complete step by step “How-to” guide for building a dry-laid patio or walkway. Copyright © 2012 Stone Plus, Inc. How To Build A Dry Laid Flagstone Patio or Walkway As there is no single “right way” to install dry laid flagstone, we have found the following to be a solid tech- nique. Choosing Your Stone Stone for walkways and patios come in many colors, shapes, textures and sizes. When selecting the stone for your pavement, keep in mind the concept, or idea, that form fits function. When laying a dry laid patio, one should use a thicker stone that is 3/4” to 2-1/2” thick. Any thinner stone will be subject to cracking. Thinner stones are used when installing stone over an existing concrete slab. Pictured to the right is the Arizona Buff Patio flagstone. As you can see, this stone has irregular edges and may need fitting in order to get the look you desire. Pictured above: Buff Patio When installing a primary walkway or patio that has high traffic or is an entertainment area, thought should be given to selecting larger and flatter flagstone. Women in high heels, or the leg of a table and chair, find larger, flatter stones more compatible with their needs. When installing a “garden path or retreat”, the use of smaller, more irregular stone is appropriate. So when choosing a flagstone for your pavement, one should consider the purpose of the pavement. Consider the texture and size of the stone in relation to its intended pur- pose. -
Hardscapes Aren't Really So Hard

Korean War Forgotten - No More
MAY 27, 2019 KOREAN WAR FORGOTTEN - NO MORE MEN OF BURLINGTON COUNTY, NJ WHO WERE CASUALTIES IN THE 1 The Cover is of the Korean War Veterans Memorial (19 stainless steel statues). The statues were sculpted by Frank Gaylord of Barre, VT and cast by Tallix Foundries of Beacon, NY. They are approximately seven feet tall and represent an ethnic cross section of America. The advance party has 14 Army, 3 Marine, 1 Navy and 1 Air Force members. The statues stand in patches of Juniper bushes and are separated by polished granite strips, which give a semblance of order and symbolize the rice paddies of Korea. The troops wear ponchos covering their weapons and equipment. The ponchos seem to blow in the cold winds of Korea. NOTES This booklet was prepared on behalf of the Burlington County War Memorial Committee. It is interrelated to the Korean War Monument that was dedicated May 27, 2019. The men contained herein are those, from Burlington County, New Jersey, that are listed on the National Archives web site. https://www.archives.gov/files/research/military/korean-war/casualty-lists/nj-alpha.pdf The lists are based on the "home of record - state" data provided by the serviceman or woman upon last entrance into military service.

Gaylord V. the United States
In the United States Court of Federal Claims No. 06-539C (Filed: December 16, 2008) ********************************** * * FRANK GAYLORD, * * Plaintiff, * Suit for Copyright Infringement; Korean * War Veterans Memorial; Postal Service Commemorative Stamp; Ownership of v. * Copyright; Fair Use Doctrine, 17 U.S.C. § 107; Architectural Works Copyright * Protection Act. THE UNITED STATES, * * Defendant. * * ********************************** * Heidi E. Harvey, with whom was Danni Tang, Fish & Richardson P.C., Boston, Massachusetts, for Plaintiff. Scott Bolden, with whom were Gregory G. Katsas, Assistant Attorney General, John J. Fargo, Director, Commercial Litigation Branch, Civil Division, United States Department of Justice, Washington, D.C., and Eric F. Mulch, United States Postal Service, Of Counsel, for Defendant. OPINION AND ORDER WHEELER, Judge. This case arises from the decision of the United States Postal Service (“Postal Service”) to issue a 37-cent postage stamp commemorating the 50th anniversary of the armistice of the Korean War. This commemorative stamp (“the Stamp”) features a photograph of many of the 19 stainless steel soldier sculptures that are part of the Korean War Veterans Memorial (“KWVM”) located on the national mall in Washington, D.C. Plaintiff, Frank C. Gaylord II, an artist and World War II veteran, sculpted these 19 soldiers in formation, known as “The Column.” Mr. Gaylord filed suit in this Court on July 25, 2006, alleging that the Postal Service, by issuing a stamp that contains an image of “The Column,” infringed his exclusive copyright in the sculpture. Compl. ¶¶ 14-15. As damages, Mr. Gaylord seeks a royalty of ten percent on the Postal Service’s net sales of the commemorative stamp and related merchandise. -
Frank GAYLORD V. UNITED STATES United States Court of Appeals, Federal Circuit
Frank GAYLORD v. UNITED STATES United States Court of Appeals, Federal Circuit. 595 F.3d 1364 (2010) 7 Before NEWMAN, MAYER, and MOORE, Circuit Judges. 8 Opinion for the court filed by Circuit Judge MOORE. Dissenting opinion filed by Circuit Judge NEWMAN. 9 MOORE, Circuit Judge. 10 Mr. Frank Gaylord appeals the decision of the United States Court of Federal Claims that a stamp issued by the United States Postal Service made fair use of a copyrighted work, specifically, soldier sculptures in formation constituting part of the Korean War Veterans Memorial (Memorial). The court determined that Mr. Gaylord was the sole author of the soldier sculptures and that his sculptures were not exempt from copyright protection under the Architectural Works Copyright Protection Act (AWCPA). Because the court erred when it determined that the stamp made fair use of Mr. Gaylord's work, but it correctly determined that the government was not a joint author and that the AWCPA did not bar an infringement suit, we affirm-in-part, reverse-in-part, and remand for a determination of damages. BACKGROUND 12 This case arises from the Postal Service's decision to issue a 37-cent stamp depicting a portion of the Memorial. The path from the concept of the Memorial to the creation of the stamp spans more than 15 years. 13 In 1986, Congress enacted legislation to erect a memorial in Washington, D.C. to honor veterans of the Korean War. [...] The legislation authorized the American Battle Monuments Commission (Commission) to establish the Memorial, and the Commission sponsored a contest to select the designer of the Memorial.
