The new underground line between Washermanpet and Korukkupet readied by the Chennai Metro Rail Limited. This line included two station as part of Phase 1 extension to Wimco Nagar. The line will offer the residents of North Chennai neighbourhoods access to the transport system. It is expected to be ready in 20 months after contract are awarded.
2 kms of the line will run beneath the northern suburbs of New Washerman pet and Korukkupet. The alignment from Thyagaraya College to Korukkupet Junction have been formed up. Also, authorities have marked areas of potential impact of work on the buildings around proposed stations and tunnels.
According to sources, the silty clay soil will make it easy for boring machine to cut through. However, as the stations have to be built around the 2 km stretch, which is extremely congested, the underground stations will be tough. Phase I of the extension line will begin at Washermanpet underground station. This is part of the Airport - Washermanpet corridor. The tunnel for the line will begin near the Mint flyover. This will be bored under the railway line to Beach station.

Holes in Buckets and Barrels
Traditionalists say
Barrels are more important than buckets
Post industrial versions of fig leaves
Hiding nakedness
Like graffiti on a wall or train
Modern version of pictographs
Telling the story of our culture
Non-traditionalists say
A bucket or a barrel
Or a womb or a coffin
Are all the same when we walk
into the dark of the unknown
Naked like the day we squeal hello
And the day we groan good bye
Each side passes judgment
Forever dancing with each other
Forever afraid the other has the lead
But the unknown haunts each coming step
And Gepetto is in the music
Standing on a barrel
Keeping the beat on a bucket
While our footprints become graffiti
Painting the darkness as it unravels around us
Famous quotes that should have been overheard about buckets:
“Something’s wrong with the moral fabric of the world when people wear buckets on their heads instead of barrels over their bodies.” Pat Roberts
“Buckets – building sand castles and protecting heads since 1899.” – Sears catalog 1954
“Who needs thumbs when you have a bucket on your head.” – Walt Disney
“We were too poor to afford a real dunce hat so my younger brother had to wear a bucket.” – Pisbury Dough-Boy
“Helmet technology has come a long way since I was a kid.” – Evil Kenevil
“A spatula and a bucket is all you need for a good time.” – Ron Jeremy
Volunteers form a bucket brigade to move bags more efficiently across the beach. Heavy lifting!
As part of the larger Hurricane Sandy resilience Project "Gandy's Beach shoreline protection", the Service partnered with The Nature Conservancy and Project PORTS to engage several thousand students to build 15,000 shell bags. The bags will be placed offshore at Gandy's Beach to become a living oyster reef, part of the 4,000 feet of living shoreline and breakwater to restore 337 acres of salt marsh and adjacent uplands. This project will substantially improve the ability of the site to withstand storm surges and coastal erosion.

"To photograph people is to violate them, by seeing them as they never see themselves, by having knowledge of them that they can never have; it turns people into objects that can be symbolically possessed. Just as a camera is a sublimation of the gun, to photograph someone is a subliminal murder - a soft murder, appropriate to a sad, frightened time." — Susan Sontag (On Photography)
Both agree and disagree.
Grosmont is one of the stations on the North York Moors railway. These fire buckets are on the station platform.
I like the striking colours and simple repetition of the three buckets.
The bucket fountain is an often photographed "Cuba Mall" icon. I have been hesitant of doing more of the same, but for me everything is always more interesting with a woman and tattoos.

Splash! It wasn't the hottest of summer days, but Ivy and Rose decided it would be fun to play with the bucket and get a little wet.
Walking down Mott St. in Chinatown, NY
I bump into this bucket of frogs
Live frogs, hanging out
chillin...
waiting to be picked up
with the silvery tongs, then transferred into a plastic bag...
