Captain Davie described the configuration of the great banking room. "Before conversion, three sets of four teller stations were placed between the square pillars on the right side. Each station included the main parts of classical architecture in reduced size, the horizontal entablature resting on the two vertical columns and consisting of cornice, frieze, and architrave. Strong structures supported a bronze hinged wicket at each of the 16 positions. Some of these groupings have been rearranged to accommodate hotel design requirements."

Although the use of the San Diego Trust & Savings Bank building changed ten years ago, from a bank and offices to a hotel with 245 guest rooms, the original features of the structure remain remarkably intact. The Courtyard-Marriott Hotel, located in the heart of a vibrant downtown San Diego, is a spectacular example of successful readapted use. The hotel stands proud in the bank's place, as the sentinel of an important piece of San Diego history.

Courtyard by Marriott - This excellent example of adaptive reuse was a 1999 People In Preservation award winner. 143

People on Flickr have been reminding me to stop and shoot more of these desert things. There are many odd things out there and it doesn't take much effort. This is a two-frame panorama shot with my backup backup camera. The place is closed and fenced. I sat the camera on the fence to shoot this.

And it really happened! A Deltic on the Blyth and Tyne, hundreds flocked in the warm spring sunshine of a double bank holiday. Yes, a royal wedding too! We will take it all.

We sped along the spine road that shoots past Cramlington, Blyth and Bedlington. So many wait for the mornings first train on the over bridge by Freemans crossing. Its -The Shot- of the morning. We continue on, beyond Ashington to the Woodhorn curve, and then on a little more, towards the smelter. And stop there to check. Really?!! It is there but we can't see in. An unmistakable drone can be heard from within, the multi layered roaring drone from the triangular configuration of cylinders and their opposed pistons, six pistons in each back, eighteen to an engine. Thirty six if both engines were running but here they are not.

And so we return to Woodhorn and await. The dandelions are in first bloom, a low down viewpoint will accentuate this. There is no one else waiting here! And then she comes, roaring on one engine at low speed on the tight curve. A racehorse on a slow slog, so beautiful in the sun. Our days work is already done!

Excerpt from en.wikipedia.org/wiki/West_Montrose_Covered_Bridge:

West Montrose Covered Bridge, also known as the "Kissing Bridge", is a covered bridge in West Montrose, Ontario, within Waterloo Region, one of the oldest covered bridges in Canada. The bridge is the only remaining covered bridge in Ontario and the second oldest surviving bridge in the Region of Waterloo. (In 2015, the total number of surviving covered bridges in Canada was below 200.)

John Bear, who had previously built barns, built the bridge in 1880–1881, mostly of oak and white pine. The total cost to the Township of Woolwich was $3,197.50. The structure can still be used by pedestrians, buggy traffic and vehicles weighing less than three tonnes for crossing the Grand River. Since 1998, it has been owned and maintained by the Regional Municipality of Waterloo.

The bridge's original design was described as a "two-span hybrid Howe truss" or as a "hybrid Queen Post – Howe timber configuration" with two louvred windows. (Additional windows, visible today, were added at some later date.) The entire structure was originally built of wood. Its weight was supported by 15 piles driven deep into the river bed. At the time of construction, the estimated useful life of the structure was 70 to 80 years. That was significantly increased with subsequent restorations.

The primary modifications during restorations added concrete and steel parts to strengthen the aging structure. However, the current visible form of the bridge remains true to the original design.

Benedetto Buffalino – La voiture sur le lampadaire, 2019 - Voiture Peugeot 406 blanche, métal, bois, système d’éclairage

Pour Benedetto Bufalino, chaque œuvre est une nouvelle aventure à imaginer. Ici pour le quartier de Paris La Défense il décide de poser une voiture sur un lampadaire. La voiture, symbole de la modernité du xxe siècle, a été pendant toute une période un élément central des villes, occupant tout l’espace (routes, parkings...). La voiture est un objet essentiel dans l’œuvre de Bufalino.

Thanks to koigon for the basic idea.

So this is the picture that I've really wanted to take for the past few weeks, and I finally got everything lined up for it!

The vehicle is the same base as my previous picture, but in what I want to call the "Sentinel" configuration with the back changed out for a more armored module and a computer-assisted rocket launcher and machine gun combo on top so multiples of these can pretty much set up in a defensive position and hold their own against the enemy laying down some serious cover fire and firing off four rockets at a time. The rockets can be reloaded manually through the back.

Smile, people, it is Friday!

Thank you for staying around and enjoy your weekend!

Excerpt from www.stpaulsingersoll.ca/about-us/history:

St Paul’s is a church founded from other Ingersoll churches in 1890: Knox Church (1849 - 1883), continuing Knox (1884 - 1889), Erskine Church (1855 - 1883), St Andrews (1883 - 1890) and St Paul’s (1890 - the present day).

These churches are remembered in the names of the rooms of the new addition added on May 15th 1999. The church is interesting from an architectural point of view because the first church with the steeple is still here! But inside the former structure the configuration now has an addition with a center aisle. You can still see the front of the original church, which now acts as an entrance from the parking lot. Above it stands the famous burning bush symbol of the Presbyterian Church in Canada.

Old Dark Grey Universal Carrier Mk. II. The first of several vehicles that will be part of my small WW II Canadian force.

100% free built (no instructions) with heavy design credit to Dan Siskind (Brickmania) for the overall size, dimensions and general exterior. Additional part credit use to Captain Eugene for his ingenious idea of using lego ski's as fenders.

Additional notes about this project:

Built this as a test/ prototype to work out detail ideas with the intentions of building 3 total. Each carrier will come with a custom built Bren machine gun along with additional appropriate armament (Vickers MG, etc) along with various stowage configurations. Dark Bley Brickarms U-Clips are temporary and will be replaced with Gunmetal clips.

Better quality pictures will be posted once final version (with stowage and permanent weapons) is completed.

So, here is what’s happening. I was going to show a different equipment configuration because I am planning on using the EOS70D next time round for another go at the gyrfalcon. That would eliminate the need for the 1.4 extender and possibly speed up autofocus a bit. To that purpose, I was diligently testing at home getting some encouraging results even up to ISO 3200. A bit softer but still quite useable and I actually liked that effect. So, since the light turned dark and miserable today, I abandoned that trip and focused on showing my result with this configuration on a female red crossbill. And then of course, I got sidetracked and came across this little beauty (yes, also the female Red Crossbill) in some wonderful lighting conditions that I was unable to resist. The cool thing here is that the water in the birdbath is releasing some steam that is clearly visible in the early morning sun and the light on the bird itself is something that I could not turn a blind eye to. (yes, bad grammar I know). She is obviously quite captivated by the steam as well. No need to talk about her beak or her non-red color. And even though I suspect that she’s an adult female, just on the off-chance she’s not, she will be one soon.

Following the Civil War, the cotton industry industrialized and grew considerably in Waco, Texas. The construction of the Waco Suspension Bridge and arrival of the Waco Tap Railroad in 1870 increased the number of people and goods entering and departing the city. Waco’s cotton market boomed, and by 1885, the city became known as the largest inland cotton market in Texas. When a second railroad connection arrived, it was named the Cotton Belt Route in honor of the large market to which it primarily catered. The Cotton Belt-Brazos River Railroad Bridge itself is of historical and architectural interest, being the second structure to span the Brazos after the 1870 Suspension Bridge. The St. Louis Southwestern Railway of Texas built the steel truss bridge in 1881 as it continued its expansion from Tyler to Corsicana to Waco to McGregor, according to the “Handbook of Waco-McLennan County History, Texas”.

This steel-truss bridge was the leading bridge design in Texas from 1880 to 1930. Constructed of a noteworthy pin-connected, multi-span structure displaying the Parker configuration that consists of 3 seven panel main truss spans and plate girder approaches. It was built as the Texas & St. Louis Railway, which reached Waco in 1881. The line, later known as the Cotton Belt or St. Louis and Southwestern Railroad, ran from Bird’s Point, Missouri, to Gatesville. The Waco Daily Times-Herald reported on June 5, 1907, that the new Cotton Belt Bridge was dedicated that morning to great fanfare, including a performance by the Baylor band at the Cotton Belt station at Third Street and Mary Avenue. The railway, also known as the Cotton Belt, had a depot on South Third Street until it was destroyed in the 1953 tornado. The railroad, which was part of the Southern Pacific system, ceased operations in the Waco area in the mid-1980's, leaving the bridge to sit vacant.

There have been plans in recent years to convert the abandoned railroad bridge to a pedestrian walking bridge but these have not panned out as of 2024.

Editor's note: HUGE positive announcement about SLS today. Read all about it here! www.nasa.gov/exploration/systems/sls/

Artist concept of NASA’s Space Launch System (SLS) 70-metric-ton Block 1 configuration. SLS will be the most powerful rocket ever built for deep space missions, including to an asteroid and ultimately to Mars. The first SLS mission -- Exploration Mission 1 -- will launch an uncrewed Orion spacecraft to a stable orbit beyond the moon and bring it back to Earth to demonstrate the integrated system performance of the SLS rocket and Orion spacecraft’s re-entry and landing prior to a crewed flight.
