A broken beauty, waiting for restoration.....or demolition depends on how you look at it. I have always loved this old home on the north end of Broadway Street in Raymond, Alberta. It came up for sale just recently and is sold for "lot value" only! If I was in the position to take on such a project I would be all over that sh*t. Unfortunately, the house sold weeks after the listing went up and a demolition sale was held, stripping the home of its treasures.
Sadly and I can't emphasis that enough. The town of Raymond actually encourages the demolition of "older homes” with grant money, in favor of new development!! WTH?! A historic Mormon Settlement such as Raymond letting their history be replaced.
I took a tour of the place myself and the house needs a sh*t-ton of work such as a new basement, windows, roof and the list goes on...but for what you pay for; the large lot and house you could easily have a completely renovated "character home" with new foundation and only spend over $150-200,000. Not to mention the house would most likely sell with that large of lot for about $300,000 after renovations etc.
No word on when or if it will be demolished. :(
This wagon marks the site where two Turkish sympathisers attacked a picnic train just leaving Broken Hill bound for Silverton on Jan 1st 1915. A total of 6 were killed (including the attackers) and 7 wounded. These were the only hostilities on Australian soil during WW1.
While applying for a UI/UX job at Citigroup I came across this error message because my password was not secure enough. How do they expect the average user to know what all that programming logic means?

On my ride to work this morning, a spoke broke on my rear wheel. On my way to the bike shop to have that repaired, my handlebar broke. Only my superhuman balance saved me from a broken collarbone or worse.
You can see where the shift lever broke away and where the bracket holding the brake lever in place broke away, exposing the usually hidden (top) camshaft.
I'm impressed that the brake lever did not completely tear away. This would have left the bicycle far less ridable (as the majority of braking is on the front; my style uses almost mostly front brake unless I'm decelerating rapidly, where the rear brake is used to apply cadence assistance).
And yes, pardo has dibs.

Last September, CDOT installed a user-activated blinking crosswalk on Monroe Street to facilitate pedestrians crossing between Millennium Park and the Art Institute's Modern Wing. It's since been broken for months but a good number of motorists still stop for pedestrians even without the blinking lights.
