102-Year-Old Abandoned Ship is a Floating Forest / Image by Andy Brill

The SS Ayrfield is one of many decommissioned ships in the Homebush Bay, just west of Sydney, but what separates it from the other stranded vessels is the incredible foliage that adorns the rusted hull. The beautiful spectacle, also referred to as The Floating Forest, adds a bit of life to the area, which happens to be a sort of ship graveyard.

Ice Station on Skis
The station will be home to up to 52 crew members over the summer and while the site may look childlike, its design is anything but simplistic. Roughly 900 miles from the South Pole, located on an ice sheet that is perpetually moving and folding into the Weddell Sea this is the sixth Halley Research Station. By Hugh Broughton Architects

April 8, 1933: For those who have visited London and wondered how they know their double-decker buses won’t fall over, this is apparently how they find out. Per police regulation, employees of the London General Omnibus Company put their 60-person bus to a “tilt test,” putting it on a 28-degree angle. Photo: The New York Times

There are aspects of Afghan culture and the performance of the Afghan security forces ISAF have been working with which are massively underreported. This is partly due to the tradeoff that embedded reporters make between access and editorial control, but it means that the public are unaware of some of the more disturbing realities of the war in Afghanistan. The rampant drug abuse amongst many in the Afghan security forces has received some coverage, but the level of child abuse and the extremes of what ISAF soldiers refer to as “Man Love Thursday” are not even close to being widely reported.

Astley Castle by WWM Architects

Clever use of brick, wood, and cement turned the ruined castle, destroyed by fire in 1978, into a contemporary home.
