(For other uses, see Shihgang Dam (disambiguation).) Shihgang Dam (Chinese: 石岡壩; pinyin: Shígāng Bà) is a concrete gravity barrage dam across the Dajia River in Shigang District and Dongshi District of Taichung, Taiwan, located near Fengyuan District. The dam was built from 1974 to 1977 for flood control and irrigation purposes, and stands 35.2 m (115 ft) high and 357 m (1,171 ft) long, holding a reservoir with an original capacity of 3,380,000 m3 (2,740 acre·ft). The dam was heavily damaged in the 921 earthquake of 1999, which caused the collapse of its northern end. Subsequently, an embankment cofferdam was built to prevent water from flowing through the breach, while the collapsed section has been retained as a memorial. Since this reduces the storage capacity of the dam, it is no longer used for flood control, but remains an important source of agricultural water. | Infrastructure |

1600 Vyssotsky, provisional designation 1947 UC, is a reddish asteroid from the inner regions of the asteroid belt, about 8 kilometers in diameter. It was discovered on October 22, 1947 by American astronomer Carl Wirtanen at Lick Observatory on the summit of Mount Hamilton, California. The asteroid is a member of the Hungaria family, that form the last, innermost dense concentration of asteroids in the Solar System. Contrary to most members of this family, Vyssotsky has a very rare A-type spectra. It orbits the Sun at a distance of 1.8–1.9 AU once every two and a half years (918 days). Its orbit is of low-eccentricity and heavily tilted towards the plane of the ecliptic. Its geometric albedo lies between 0.03 and 0.06. Photometric observations at the Palmer Divide Observatory (see video in ) in the U.S. state of Colorado in 1999 were used to build a light curve for this object. The asteroid displayed a rotation period of 3.201±0.001 hours and a brightness variation of 0.19±0.01 in magnitude. A repeated observation in 2014 gave a period of 3.205±0.003 hours. It was named in honor of Russian–American astronomer Alexander Vyssotsky (1888–1973) who joined the faculty of the University of Virginia in 1923 and stayed at the McCormick Observatory on Mount Jefferson, Virginia, for 35 years. He was active in the fields of photometry, astrometry and spectral classification. | Celestial Body |

Excalibur Pot is a natural cave in the North York Moors area of England. It is the only major cave known in the North York Moors, and is formed within the Corallian limestone of the Upper Jurassic. The entrance is in the normally dry stream bed of Hutton Beck, midway between Hutton-le-Hole and Keldholme. Two short pitches of 8 m and 5 m descend to a large chamber, which is followed by an extensive inlet series, and a large main streamway accessed by a 4 m pitch. Several areas have admirable formations, far more elaborate than anything else found on the North York Moors. The sources of the water are various sinks in Hutton Beck, and the stream eventually resurges from Bogg Hall Rising in the adjacent Douthwaite Dale at Keldholme. | Natural Place |

Bolivar is a town in Allegany County, New York, United States. The population was 2,189 at the 2010 census. The town is named after Simón Bolívar. Bolivar is on the south border of the county and is east of Olean. There is also a village of Bolivar in the town. As \"the heart of the Allegany Oil Field\" the Bolivar-Richburg area rose to significance during the oil boom era of the late 1800s. During the brief initial oil boom of the 1880s it was purportedly the wealthiest locale, per capita, in the United States. By the early 1900s the initial boom, with its economic and population impacts, had significantly faded, but secondary oil recovery techniques applied to the oil fields (starting around 1920) drastically rejuvenated the industry in the area. An extensive collection of photos and documents (over 6,000 items) related to the history (including the area's oil industry dating from 1879), schools and other institutions, and people of Bolivar N.Y. (including current and former residents) is maintained on Facebook as the \"Bolivar New York Fan Page.\" The items are organized into dozens of albums, by topic. | Settlement |

The elm cultivar Ulmus 'Scampstoniensis', the Scampston Elm or Scampston Weeping Elm, is said to have come from Scampston Hall, Yorkshire, England, before 1810. Loudon opined that a tree of the same name at the Royal Horticultural Society's Garden in 1834, 18 feet (5.5 m) high at 8 years old \"differed little from the species\" (i.e. the smooth-leaved elm, his U. glabra [:Ulmus minor ]). Henry described the tree, from a specimen growing in Victoria Park, Bath, as \"a weeping form of U. nitens\" [:Ulmus minor ]; however Green considered it \"probably a form of Ulmus × hollandica\". Writing in 1831, Loudon said that the tree was supposed to have originated in America. U. minor is not, however, an American species, so if the tree was brought from America, it must originally have been taken there from Europe. There was (and is) an 'American Plantation' (or 'America Plantation') at Scampston, which may be related to this supposition. A number of old specimens of 'Scampstoniensis' in this plantation were blown down in a great gale of October 1881; younger specimens were still present at Scampston in 1911. Georg Dieck of the National Arboretum in Zöschen, Germany, considered 'Scampstoniensis' a synonym of Ulmus scabra Serpentina [see U. × hollandica 'Serpentina' ], a view rejected by Petzold, who in his Arboretum Muscaviense listed 'Scampstoniensis' separately, and by the Hortus Botanicus Leiden, which had a specimen of 'Scampstoniensis' (see below). \"From the Travemünder Nurseries we received an U. scampstoniensis, an elm with a beautiful pendulous shape,\" wrote Petzold, \"that we distinguish from our U. montana Pendula.\" | Plant |

Laredo International Bridge 5 (nicknamed the South Laredo International Bridge) is a proposed bridge to be built on the U.S.-Mexico border between the southern portion of Webb County, Texas, and Nuevo Laredo, Tamaulipas. As of May 2008, there are three potential locations being considered for the bridge, all several miles south of the existing bridges in Laredo: \n* Webb County officials favor a site on Mangana-Hein Road in southern Laredo. \n* The city of Laredo favors a site approximately a mile south of Mangana-Hein Road, also in southern Laredo. \n* A group of private landowners have promised to donate land for a site between Rio Bravo and El Cenizo, south of the Laredo city limits. City and county officials at a meeting on May 8, 2008 set a self-imposed six-week deadline for deciding on a preferred site for the bridge. Past disputes between the city and county over ownership of the bridge appear to have been largely resolved. Construction of the South Laredo International Bridge is expected to occur in the next several years once the World Trade International Bridge reaches full capacity. In preparation for the bridge and to accommodate urban growth in south Laredo, extensive construction on U.S. Highway 83, including a creation of a median, widening, and an interchange with flyovers with State Highway 359 on US 83, has been undertaken. | Route Of Transportation |
