The city is a popular tourist destination, with an average year-round temperature of 75.5 °F (24.2 °C) and 3,000 hours of sunshine per year. Greater Fort Lauderdale which takes in all of Broward County hosted 12 million visitors in 2012, including 2.8 million international visitors. The city and county in 2012 collected $43.9 million from the 5% hotel tax it charges, after hotels in the area recorded an occupancy rate for the year of 72.7 percent and an average daily rate of $114.48. The district has 561 hotels and motels comprising nearly 35,000 rooms. Forty six cruise ships sailed from Port Everglades in 2012. Greater Fort Lauderdale has over 4,000 restaurants, 63 golf courses, 12 shopping malls, 16 museums, 132 nightclubs, 278 parkland campsites, and 100 marinas housing 45,000 resident yachts.
Fort Lauderdale is named after a series of forts built by the United States during the Second Seminole War. The forts took their name from Major William Lauderdale (1782–1838), younger brother of Lieutenant Colonel James Lauderdale. William Lauderdale was the commander of the detachment of soldiers who built the first fort. However, development of the city did not begin until 50 years after the forts were abandoned at the end of the conflict. Three forts named "Fort Lauderdale" were constructed; the first was at the fork of the New River, the second at Tarpon Bend on the New River between the Colee Hammock and Rio Vista neighborhoods, and the third near the site of the Bahia Mar Marina.
The area in which the city of Fort Lauderdale would later be founded was inhabited for more than two thousand years by the Tequesta Indians. Contact with Spanish explorers in the 16th century proved disastrous for the Tequesta, as the Europeans unwittingly brought with them diseases, such as smallpox, to which the native populations possessed no resistance. For the Tequesta, disease, coupled with continuing conflict with their Calusa neighbors, contributed greatly to their decline over the next two centuries. By 1763, there were only a few Tequesta left in Florida, and most of them were evacuated to Cuba when the Spanish ceded Florida to the British in 1763, under the terms of the Treaty of Paris (1763), which ended the Seven Years' War. Although control of the area changed between Spain, United Kingdom, the United States, and the Confederate States of America, it remained largely undeveloped until the 20th century.
The Fort Lauderdale area was known as the "New River Settlement" before the 20th century. In the 1830s there were approximately 70 settlers living along the New River. William Cooley, the local Justice of the Peace, was a farmer and wrecker, who traded with the Seminole Indians. On January 6, 1836, while Cooley was leading an attempt to salvage a wrecked ship, a band of Seminoles attacked his farm, killing his wife and children, and the children's tutor. The other farms in the settlement were not attacked, but all the white residents in the area abandoned the settlement, fleeing first to the Cape Florida Lighthouse on Key Biscayne, and then to Key West.
The first United States stockade named Fort Lauderdale was built in 1838, and subsequently was a site of fighting during the Second Seminole War. The fort was abandoned in 1842, after the end of the war, and the area remained virtually unpopulated until the 1890s. It was not until Frank Stranahan arrived in the area in 1893 to operate a ferry across the New River, and the Florida East Coast Railroad's completion of a route through the area in 1896, that any organized development began. The city was incorporated in 1911, and in 1915 was designated the county seat of newly formed Broward County.
Fort Lauderdale's first major development began in the 1920s, during the Florida land boom of the 1920s. The 1926 Miami Hurricane and the Great Depression of the 1930s caused a great deal of economic dislocation. In July 1935, an African-American man named Rubin Stacy was accused of robbing a white woman at knife point. He was arrested and being transported to a Miami jail when police were run off the road by a mob. A group of 100 white men proceeded to hang Stacy from a tree near the scene of his alleged robbery. His body was riddled with some twenty bullets. The murder was subsequently used by the press in Nazi Germany to discredit US critiques of its own persecution of Jews, Communists, and Catholics.
When World War II began, Fort Lauderdale became a major US base, with a Naval Air Station to train pilots, radar operators, and fire control, operators. A Coast Guard base at Port Everglades was also established.
On July 4, 1961, African Americans started a series of protests, wade-ins, at beaches that were off-limits to them, to protest "the failure of the county to build a road to the Negro beach". On July 11, 1962, a verdict by Ted Cabot went against the city's policy of racial segregation of public beaches.
Today, Fort Lauderdale is a major yachting center, one of the nation's largest tourist destinations, and the center of a metropolitan division with 1.8 million people.

I'm a little late for this part of the contest, but I wanted to put this out. Riddler is my favorite Batman villain, and Steampunk is my favorate genre-time-myth-thing. I worked really hard on his staff. Well, that's about it.
Also, changed my editing process-I hope you like it :D
#194/365 Can you guess what this week's theme will be? There are several clues....some less obvious. Best view large because I love how the DLP projector casted a grid pattern on the face. Since I'm going with a theme this week...I need to get some more ideas :)
Strobist: Projector above camera :)
Not a lot to say here, apart from the fact that I really do not like the 'Lego Batman movie' Riddler head. It just seems to be too...simple. Ironic huh?
So, I switched it, gave him his more traditional black hair and wound up here.
I got inspired by Lord Allo
Clayface: So basically, this is the same Clayface from last night, but I liked the idea Allo had of him trying to remain human after getting mutated, thus we have this versions
Poison Ivy: A lot of different designs meshed together
Riddler: I was going for a BTAS design
Mr. Freeze: Same as the Riddler
Two-Face: I really, really like the TBLM figure. I just painted over the exposed undies
What a difference a week makes! Where's is the sun? Working on its inaugural revenue earning day, the newly restored Riddles designed '2MT' 2-6-0 no.78022 climbs Oakworth Bank with ease with the 14:45 Keighley-Oxenhope train.
The Darlington built '2MT' was saved from Barry Scrapyard in 1975 and first returned to steam in 1993. After a long period in the railway’s museum at Oxenhope, she was recently surperbly outshopped in BR green livery.
Gollum's Riddle Alive without breath, as cold as death; never thirsty, ever drinking, all in mail never clinking.(Answer: Fish)
Riddles designed Standard '2MT' 2-6-0 no.78018 and Riddles designed Standard a '9F' 2-10-0 no.92214 leave Loughborough MPD.
Eeeeyyy, Double Post.
Honestly there's nothing all that special about this, I'm just stoked that I found a classic-style Clayface that I didn't have to pay Christo-amounts of money for.
Grabbed this guy off eBay, after a hint from Moose and Lego Skeleton. He's not hard to find, and not that pricey. Plus while the print and plastic aren't quite the same quality, I think it's passable enough. Especially for the price. and especially when slapped on a legitimate torso and legs.
Anyways, just wanted to show off all these guys again. Now I'm off to find a Riddler that isn't secretly a goddamn magnet.
Cheers!
The Riddler as he appears in Batman: Arkham City.
The hair is modded Lego hair.
The cane is made out of butchered Lego pieces.
This was painted by me.
Well well well. If it isn't batman, have I got a riddle for you! If you save the cat then you strangle the rat and if you rescue the rat then you burn the car.But if you go after me and heres the fact you kill them both. And that is that
"C'on Detective solve this !!"
From the last chapter "Batman arkham knight" The Riddler Bot .

Real Name: Edward Nashton
Current Alias: The Riddler
First Appearance: Detective comics #140
Abilities: He is extremely intelligent and is very cunning. He is not well versed in hand to hand combat, but he uses gimmick weapons and is an expert in engineering and technology. His deductive ability’s are rapid and are now used for his current occupation as a private detective, even known to collaborate with The Batman and other investigative crime fighters.
Attire: He wears a black Hat and vest, with a green suit and pants, along with a purple tie and gloves.
Arkham File: Patient Edward Nashton Aka The Riddler, was a college graduate, Who landed at the GCPD Crime division. He gained information about the GCPD’s corrupt doings overtime and started a campaign to attack the GCPD and blackmail them. The Batman got wind of this and pursued Nashton, but Nashton allowed Batman to temporarily stop him because of his interest in the masked vigilante. He later released the information regardless because, he no longer wanted to attacked the GCPD, but instead outsmart the Batman. He reappeared once more, but this time under his Riddler persona. He wanted to test Batman and set bombs all over Gotham in order to see if Batman intellect was on his level and wore a mask to see if Batman could deduce his true identity. Batman solves every puzzle, but also found hidden clues in each answer that lead him to an abandoned building near Dixon docks that he had been previously owned. Nashton tried to make his escape, but found that the building was surrounded by the GCPD. Nashton was arrested and was sent to Arkham Asylum. In sessions with Nashton we discovered that he stole for fun as a kid and loved to always be right by outsmarting people by cheating. This came with a price though, he was lonely throughout high school and college and was always mocked by his father, who saw him as a wimp. He eventually escaped during a riot and began a campaign to become the smartest and most powerful man in the underworld. He started this by humiliating and selling out Arthur Brown Aka Cluemaster, to make it known that there is only man who outsmarts Batman with clues left at the scene of the crime. He also killed Jessica Duchamp’s Father which caused her to become the Puzzler. Some time after this, he started a crime war with the Joker over who Could kill Batman first. This caused a major spike in crime as all criminals started choosing sides and civilians got caught in the crossfire. Ironically Batman choose to work with the riddler and used Chuck Brown Aka Kite-man as a mole in Riddlers gang. The two stopped the war and all parties dispersed. After this Nashton also discovered one of the League of Assassins Lazarus Pits and started a campaign to outsmart The Batman, even claiming that he knew Batman’s identity at one point. He was later beaten and humiliated by many criminals and eventually started kidnapping Professors and extremely smart individuals to try and beat them at puzzles. He usually failed, but he would still kill them or their family members. He finally tried to outsmart Batman by luring commissioner James Gordon into a virtual reality simulator connected to the brain. Batman went in and rescued the commissioner, and pulled the plug on the machine. They traced the source to Riddler where he was found in a comatose state for not disconnecting his brain before the program was shutdown. Nashton was in a coma for six months, until recently when he awoke with his insanity and obsession of Batman gone. His intellect was still in tact and he became a private investigator. He has been criticized and attacked by his victims and other angry individuals because of his previous crimes when he was insane. A prime example was a case in which a multitude of people who were wronged by Nashton Like Arthur Brown and Jessica Duchamp wanted to ruin his newly built life. They framed him for murder and tried to kill him, but The Batman had been watching Nashton and new of his innocence. The GCPD and Batman saved Nashton before he was killed and was cleared of all charges. Nashton still works as a private investigator to this day and is now legally sane.

Passing Sadler House, is Riddles '4MT' 2-6-4T no.80136 with the 15:56 Grosmont-Pickering teakes
NYMY 2017 Autumn Steam Gala
The door creaked open inside the warehouse that Riddler was set up in. Even with power returned to the city, the warehouse still creeped Arnold Wesker out.
Mad Hatter’s voice echoed through the building, “Hello hello! Does anyone happen to be home, hehe!”
Arnold was very afraid now. He had thought that it was Empress Penguin returning, not Riddler and friends.
Edward had removed his hat and mask, answering a text from Ivy on his phone before putting it back in his pocket. He noticed that Arnold was alone right away, “Oh, hello Arnold. I haven’t seen you in a bit, only Esmeralda gave me Alex. She said you were busy? Whatever could that mean?”
Arnold stuttered and stumbled over his words. He couldn’t find an answer.
Black Mask pulled his gun, “Where’s Scarface, Wesker...”
“M-Mr. Scarface i-is gone, s-sir...”
Mad Hatter sipped his tea, “Deary me, it seems he lost the tiny man who sat upon his arm!”
“Y-Yes...M-Ms. Copplepot she...she killed him...”
Edward raised an eyebrow to that, and then cooed a bit mockingly, “Oh dear...well, I believe we could always find another Scarface, Arnold...”
Arnold was terrified now.

Quick and shitty photo, but yeah. Newest finished character of wave one of my GCW characters, of which I currently have...four finished. Hmm.
But yeah. My own design; ol' Eddie used to be some sorta spook, then went crazy, and is now obsessed with questions of one sort or another, and also has a penchant for murder. Funfunfun!
Wave one consists of Gordon, Two-Face, Green Arrow, and Riddler so far. I mean, I haven't even finished Batman, and my Azrael, Robin and Joker have been on my desk for...god knows how long.
