This coal fired power station opened in 1967, closed in2014 and today its chimneys, a familiar East Lothian landmark were demolished.
Looking west along Union Street in the aftermath of February 2, 1976. On that date, Saint John was hit by a great windstorm which quickly became known as the Groundhog Gale. A day or two later, I took some pictures of the damage, but unfortunately this is the best of the bunch. I lacked a decent camera and sufficient historical sense to really get out and do a more comprehensive survey. More importantly, perhaps, I was a young man who had not yet developed a photographer's keen eye for pertinent detail (come to think of it, I'm STILL working on that!). Nowadays, such a disaster would be recorded much more intensively, given the prevalence of cellphone cameras . . . If anyone out there has a really good photo or two of the GG, please share it/them (another 1970s disaster of particular interest to me
is the great Saint John River flood of 1973-----it seems there's hardly ANYTHING about
this on the Internet at present, and yet there must have been competent photographers
along the river who documented the event).
after the rain, the flood.
after the flood, the debris.
I don't think the sign held back the water when our river flooded redently.
....the aftermath of 3 hours of everything being broke at excellerx, 387 documents to index, 366 to complete and then 60 altered prescriptions after that. and without 2 hours we got them done. CRAZY SHIT.

Anger and violence erupted in Pakistan overnight after the opposition political leader Benazir Bhutto was assassinated at her political rally. Now it is around 4 AM in the morning and every thing seems fine so far on the roads. Traffic is flowing without any hurdle except you will find wreckage of burned buses & cars on the road side
Oracle's got this whole city wired. Nothing goes on without her knowing it.

A week or two back a British tourist was observed throwing a cigarette butt out of his car window while parked on Table Mountain. The butt started a fire and the tourist tried to drive off but was stopped by the two rangers that witnessed the cause of the fire. This fire raged, out of control, for several days before firefighters could extinguish it. Houses in some suburbs were threatened but fortunately no houses were burnt. Sadly another British tourist, a 65 year old woman, died from smoke inhalation. The person that started the fire is now on bail, awaiting trial on charges of arson and culpable homicide.
This photograph shows some of the devastation wrought on the fynbos that normally covers the mountainsides.

On June 28, 2019, this mixed-use development at 1890 El Camino Real in Santa Clara, California burned while under construction. Smoke from the four-alarm fire was visible for many miles. Fortunately, only one person was injured, a construction worker who suffered non-life-threatening injuries.

The morning after my Party. I hurt a bit. just a bit. But I'm still standing.
365 Days. 28/10/2007. Day 128.
Acabado el infructuoso intento de fotografiar las Leónidas, me quedan todas esas cámaras cargadas con pelÃcula... Las dos OM y la Nikon F3 ya han acabado el rollo, pero me quedan la F y la Bessa-L por terminar... y son bastantes fotogramas :-(
i really had no idea the storm was so bad, until we got back to our neighborhood last night and saw this.
park slope and forest hills were both hit really hard. jackson heights had a few trees down, but overall, not too much damage.
but the subway last night? omg. we are so lucky we squeezed on to one. every platform we stopped at had TONS of people waiting for a train. and our neighborhood had a ton of people walking around and lots and lots of traffic on the side streets. craziness.
this is why i left the midwest people! i don't need this insane weather here!
I took a wander round the corner to the site of a large warehouse fire which happened on 15th January. The whole warehouse area has collapsed in on itself and I find the rust and mis-shapen metal fascinating. I felt a little voyeuristic taking these shots, but everyone got out safely. I'm not sure I could have taken them had there been injuries
