The Theory clothing store on Gansevoort St in the former Meatpacking district of Manhattan. The Theory brand has 221 stores worldwide with global sales reaching $1 billion in 2014.I believe this building is the retailer's headquarters.What's interesting here is that besides the juxtaposition in style,the buildings are relatively the same height.Newer structures have to stay within landmark height limit requirements and zoning codes.
Whenever I see the beauty of our landscapes it makes me realise that nothing mankind can do matches the splendour and might of nature. What a pity more of our politicians don't appreciate this.

In chaos theory, the butterfly effect is the sensitive dependence on initial conditions in which a small change in one state of a deterministic nonlinear system can result in large differences in a later state

Theory of a Deadman
Friday is when you left me
So I'll drink myself to sleep
And Sunday is when I'll wake up
Not to remember a thing
My friends all say the same thing
I don't know my new girl too well
(I know)
That all this lying gets to me
And no one seems to give a shit
(The way)
She talks to every guy in the bar
(I guess)
It should've raised some kind of alarm
Who'd ever think I'd go and end up
Like all the other guys that you've gone and fucked
Well it ain't no surprise
That you turn me on and leave
It ain't no surprise
That you turn it around on me
I don't know why
You won't give me what I need
It ain't no surprise
That that bitch is leavin' me
My friends are mean to me
They say I don't break up too well
(They know)
All this crying gets to me
And no one seems to give a shit
Well I know you want to
So go on and say it
Just go on and say it
Just go on and say it
Well it ain't no surprise
That you turn me on and leave
It ain't no surprise
That you turn it around on me
I don't know why
You won't give me what I need
It ain't no surprise
That that bitch is leavin' me
(Leavin' me)
Friday is when you left me
So I drank myself to sleep
And Sunday I never woke up
Well it ain't no surprise
That you turn me on and leave
It ain't no surprise
That you turn it around on me
I don't know why
You won't give me what I need
It ain't no surprise
That that bitch is leavin' me
That that bitch is leavin' me
Mount Santubong's name may have been derived from the Iban word for coffin, but various Chinese derivations have also been suggested (San approximating the word for mountain in many dialects), as well Bidayuh, in whose lands the names of many hills start with S. Investigators have made ascents of the steep mountain to find places of archaeological interest. Around its foot are signs of Hindu occupation which are hundreds of years old which have been investigated by the Sarawak Museum. It was also the home of the early Sarawak Malays until they were driven up to Kuching in about the 1850s owing to continual attacks from the powerful Saribas Dayaks.[citation needed]
The mountain is made of sandstone, although it has been confused by many with limestone tower karst, or a volcanic plug: smaller versions of both appear not far inland. For a long time it interested those in search of gold but without success. There used to be an old theory that all the gold in the First Division of Sarawak lies in a straight line between Bau and Santubong which has some support in that there is a certain amount of gold in the mountain since fishermen in the past used to depend for their livelihood during the monsoon seasons, when the sea was too rough for fishing, by panning gold in the small mountain streams from which they could expect to gain an average of twenty dollars a month.
In this picture you get to see all the "4 iconic Santubongs" of Sarawak.
1. The mountain - Mt Santubong
2. The village - Santubong by the mountain.
3. The river - Santubong River @ Sungai Santubong
4. The famous Santubong Bridge.
I've never said you'll have to
be afraid
of the cookie monster
beside your bed
It's not the real
The real one's in your head
Beyond control
The true one cuts you dead
It's a war
hundreds of strings hanging from the ceiling, little embroidered cups hang from each, I slide around on my back and when I saw the light ;o) I shot and kept speeding the shutter to get the starburst affect I wanted.
This opportunity had me thinking of todays title because there is so very much at the top, and so little at the bottom. This theory purports that " tax breaks and benefits for corporations and the wealthy will trickle down to everyone else". This economic notion persists, although we are overwhelmingly witness to various corporations taking larger gross profit margins, while starving off and slowing down, exhausting payouts.
Take for example the world of telephony in our Country. Amalgamating companies should lead to fewer redundancies, thus decreasing corporate costs. Increased profits could then trickle down to customers and lower their bills. Instead, our waterfalls better illustrates any words I could harvest to explain what actually happens..
Schrodinger's cat is a famous theoretical thought experiment in quantum physics
If even remotely interested......
There's something called The Copenhagen Interpretation that posits that "things" at the subatomic level don't have any determined properties, only possibilities. A particle can be in two places at the same time, the atom can be in both an excited and unexcited state at the same time, and a photon can be both a particle and a wave.
What determines what we see is our measurement and observation,
Then all the probabilities collapse into one, the one being observed.
Schrodinger wasn't a fan of that theory, so he devised a thought experiment to show how absurd it would be to apply to the gross world of stuff.
He said imagine we put a cat in a box. Also in the box is a radioactive particle which might, or might not begin to decay and emit radiation. If it does, there's a gieger counter which will trigger the release of a noxious gas that will kill the cat.
Then we put a lid on the box.
But until someone opens the box, the cat is both alive and dead.
That's hugely oversimplified, but it's the layman's gist.
This little cat was sitting under a curb on a recessed sewer grate.
So,, is it coming or going or both?
I'm happy to say it was alive. ;-))

It started snowing at Theory and the lake's all frozen over now. While you're there shopping or just peeking in, have a look around the sim and enjoy the scenery.
Big ups to a fellow Canuk, Theory. Been in the game for many a moon and on a comeback as of late, producing some of my favourite themed whole cars to date. A benchers delight and one of the kings of the hoppers. Here is a couple of my favs....

We do know there was once a great Pictish fort at Burghead, built between 2,000 and 1,500 years ago, though little of it remains today. Tradition held that the hollow visible in the corner of the ancient fort held a well.
When the planned town of Burghead was built in 1808, the well was selected as its water source. Excavations the following year revealed a solid rock chamber, with a flight of stone steps leading down.
Theories about the function of the ‘well’ include:
a shrine to Celtic water deities
a place of ritual execution
an early Christian baptristy
a Pictish cult centre, later converted to Christian use
In recent months I developed a peculiar taste for climbing. Peculiar because as much as I don't want to do it, I will still more often try to convince people that there is no other way to go up but to climb something, even if I am bluntly presented with an open door or a hidden passage.
But on a hot June's afternoon in the year of our Lord 2015, all the doors were locked and there was a window open high up. Immediately my mind set up to calculating, recalculating and estimating the height of all the various objects at that huge castello. I finally presented a stupid idea to my partner, pointing at a huge couch rotting away in the stables. "You know, it could work. In theory.“
.... sometimes you have to wait, and then you have all the colors together :-) It's the famous colorful fishermen's houses of Smögen, and yes, it's worth being there.

I just loved the contrasts between the steady autumn trees and the couple watching the sunset, and the effects created by the long exposure on the futuristic wheel and the clouds.
