Tensegrity connection in the book on I. M. Pei I am skimming: "In the early 1980's Pei designed a glass-and-steel pyramid for the Louvre in Paris".

@amineca : in the village (*) I live in, there's a repair cafe every second wednesday of the month.

(*) With the only "pyramid" in NL: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyramid_of_Austerlitz

I joined the repair people this month for the first time, and was happy to do some fixing.

I met a number of very kind people, and it is unbelievably rewarding to help people and see how that cheers them up - even if their problems are kind of silly.

I'll definitely be present again in one and a half weeks time!

A pyramid has been found in the Judean Desert near the Dead Sea. It is over 2000 years old and contains many ancient Greek artefacts. For example historical documents, coins, weapons and furniture. But the archaeologists are stumped as to what the pyramid's purpose was. Theories put forward have been a guard tower, monument or even a tax collector's fortress! The pyramid is made of hand hewn stones that weigh hundreds of kilograms each.

Meanwhile Ben Carson, 2016 GOP Presidential hopeful, still sticks to his story that the pyramids are actually air-tight grain silos.

Одно из семи новых чудес света (и шестое, которое я посетил).

Чтобы точно успеть на первую маршрутку из Вальядолида, пришёл к 6.30 за полчаса до ее отправления. И там уже ждали ещё несколько сумасшедших

Первым делом побежал к пирамиде Кукулькана. Подумалось, что у неё тоже есть рабочая сторона - самые эффектные кадры получаются при ракурсе с угла.
