Wild things were happening Saturday morning at the Crane Estate in Ipswich, Massachusetts. The Strandbeests were roaming!
The Beests, as they are sometimes affectionately called, are the brainchild of Theo Jansen. Jansen is by training a scientist, by passion an artist. While studying physics at Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands, playful ideas began to take shape inside the mind of the man who created this global, environmental phenomenon.
TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — Britain's foreign minister said Monday that Iran is a major regional player that can be an ally in fighting terrorism — but that London must "tread carefully" in its relationship with Tehran.
Tehran and world powers struck a deal last month on Iran's contested nuclear program, and on Sunday, Britain and Iran reopened their respective embassies after a break of several years.
