Floaty pens consist of two main components: 1) A lower half made of opaque plastic usually containing a retractable ball-point tip. 2) An upper half called the design barrel, it’s a transparent plastic oil-filled tube that contains a stationary background scene with a moving component on a glider in front. When the pen is titled horizontally to one side or another the glider figure moves across the background scene. Float Pens aka Floaty Pens Haifa (Hebrew: חֵיפָה Heifa , colloquial Hebrew pronunciation: Arabic: حيفا‎ Ḥayfā is the largest city in northern Israel, and the third-largest city in the country, with a population of over 268,000. Another 300,000 people live in towns directly adjacent to the city including Daliyat al-Karmel, Krayot, Nesher, and Tirat Carmel, and some Kibbuzim. Together these areas form a contiguous urban area home to nearly 600,000 residents which makes up the inner core of the Haifa metropolitan area. Haifa is a mixed city: 90% are Jews, more than a quarter of whom are immigrants from the former Soviet Union, while 10% are Arabs, predominantly of the Christian religion It is also home to the Bahá’í World Centre, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.Built on the slopes of Mount Carmel, the history of settlement at the site spans more than 3,000 years. The earliest known settlement in the vicinity was Tell Abu Hawam a small port city established in the Late Bronze Age (14th century BCE). In the 3rd century CE, Haifa was known as a dye-making center. Over the centuries, the city has changed hands: It has been conquered and ruled by the Phoenicians, Persians, Hasmoneans, Romans, Byzantines, Arabs, Crusaders, Ottomans, British, and the Israelis. Since the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948; the city has been governed by the Haifa Municipality.Today, the city is a major seaport located on Israel’s Mediterranean coastline in the Bay of Haifa covering 63.7 square kilometres (24.6 sq mi). It is located about 90 kilometres (56 mi) north of Tel Aviv and is the major regional center of northern Israel.

Its precise location on Mount Carmel was designated by Bahá’u’lláh himself to his eldest son, `Abdu’l-Bahá, in 1891. `Abdu’l-Bahá planned the structure, which was designed and completed several years later by his grandson, Shoghi Effendi. Crowning the design, as anticipated by `Abdu’l-Bahá, is a dome, which is set on an 18-windowed drum. That, in turn, is mounted on an octagon, a feature suggested by Shoghi Effendi. An arcade surrounds the stone edifice. A restoration project of the exterior and interior of the shrine started in 2008 and was completed in April 2011.[1] Contents [hide] 1History 2Design and composition 3Interior 4Titles 5Terraced gardens 6References 7Further reading 8External links History[edit] Shrine of the Báb and the Port of Haifa Shrine of the Báb and the Bahá’í gardens in Haifa, Israel Bahá’í gardens The remains of the Báb were buried on March 21, 1909 in a six-room mausoleum made of local stone. In a separate room, the remains of `Abdu’l-Bahá were buried in November 1921. In 1929 three rooms were added to the mausoleum, and in 1949 the first threshold stone of the superstructure was laid by Shoghi Effendi. The construction was completed over the mausoleum in 1953 and was entirely paid for by Bahá’ís around the world.[2] The architect was William Sutherland Maxwell, a Canadian Bahá’í who was a Beaux-Arts architect and the father-in-law of Shoghi Effendi. Shoghi Effendi provided overall guidance, including in the use of Western and Eastern styles, but left the artistic details to Maxwell. Maxwell’s design of the Rose Baveno granite colonnade, Oriental-style Chiampo stone arches, and golden dome is meant to harmonize Eastern and Western proportions and style. Maxwell died in 1952, and Shoghi Effendi named the Southern door of the Shrine after him. Some remaining aspects of the dome’s structural engineering were designed by Professor H. Neumann of Haifa’s Technion University.[2] In 1952, Leroy Ioas, an American Bahá’í who had been closely associated with the construction of the Bahá’í House of Worship in Wilmette, Illinois helped Shoghi Effendi in the construction process. Ioas employed his administrative skills and practical mind to supervise the building of the drum and dome, a task done without the availability of sophisticated machinery. Shoghi Effendi called the door on the octagon after him.[2] Because of the scarcity of building materials in the area after World War II, most of the stones for the Shrine of the Báb were carved in Italy with the assistance of Ugo Giachery and then shipped to Haifa. One of the doors of the Shrine was named after Giachery. The superstructure was said to be at the time the largest prefabricated building to move from Europe to any point in the world.[2] On July 8, 2008, the Shrine of the Báb, along with several other Bahá’í holy sites in Haifa and the nearby city of Acre (Akko), were inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List.[3][4] The Bahá’í shrines “are the first sites connected with a relatively new religious tradition to be recognized by the World Heritage List.”[5] The UNESCO World Heritage Committee considers the sites to be “of outstanding universal value [and]…inscribed for the testimony they provide to the Bahá’i’s strong tradition of pilgrimage and for their profound meaning for the faith.”[6] “We welcome the UNESCO recognition, which highlights the importance of the holy places of a religion that in 150 years has gone from a small group found only in the Middle East to a worldwide community with followers in virtually every country,” said Albert Lincoln, secretary-general of the Baha’i International Community. Design and composition[edit] The dome is composed of 12,000 fish-scale tiles of 50 different shapes and sizes made in Portugal by employing an innovative process involving fire-glazing over gold leaf.[7] The cylinder drum rises 11 meters and rests on a circular steel-reinforced-concrete ring on the top of the octagon. The Shrine is also decorated with emerald green and scarlet mosaics on the balustrade above, a fire-gilded bronze symbol of the Greatest Name of the Bahá’í Faith at the four corners, and a multitude of intricate decorations and motifs.[2][8] Interior[edit] The Shrine is a place for quiet prayer and meditation where no ceremonies or religious services are held. A special prayer used by Bahá’ís when visiting the Shrine, known as the Tablet of Visitation, is hung on the wall in both the original Arabic and an English translation.[9] Titles[edit] Shoghi Effendi, in a message dated 19 August 1953, has described the Shrine in the following poetic way: “…Queen of Carmel enthroned on God’s Mountain, crowned in glowing gold, robed in shimmering white, girdled in emerald green, enchanting every eye from air, sea, plain and hill.”[10] He has also called the Shrine the Kúh-i-Núr (Mountain of Light), facing and overshadowed by the Daryá-yi-Núr (Ocean of Light, the Shrine of Bahá’u’lláh).[11] Terraced gardens[edit] Main article: Terraces (Bahá’í) The terraces below the Shrine of the Báb Surrounded by terraced gardens, the Shrine is one of the most recognizable landmarks in Haifa and has attracted millions of visitors. The Shrine is enhanced by 19 garden terraces that stretch one kilometre from the base of Mount Carmel to its summit, and both the terraces and the Shrine are illuminated at night.[2] The Bahá’ís consider the Shrine of the Báb and the surrounding gardens to be a “gift to humanity.” ebay3995
