This is a "Before" shot, showing how the clock looked when I first bought it. I don't know what planet they found that "pendulum" on, but it certainly wasn't anywhere in the clock galaxy! Also, you can tell that one whole side of the base is missing which is why the clock is so tilted. (Also notice how dark the wood had become, most likely from fireplace soot or kitchen smoke. The clock had probably sat over someone's fireplace or kitchen stove for many years).
A different perspective -- wanted to capture it during the twilight with some light trails but reached late and ended up with this. In one way it worked well - the clutter was eliminated.

孔乙己知道“茴”的N种写法，和此前辈不同的是：我们知道一个数字的N种写法，从1到12都伪装、变形、修饰了，我们将这种做法称为“婉约”。
为什么LOG(55)是4？ 因为太Geek了。
In most commonly-used programming languages, including C, C++, SAS, MATLAB, Fortran, and BASIC, “log” or “LOG” refers to the natural logarithm.
大部分编程语言都使用LOG的写法表示以自然对数为底。

The Old Waller County Courthouse Clock and Bell - Hempstead, TX.
The clock tower provides a permanent home for the 1894 bell & clock which
were functional adornments to the old Waller County Texas Courthouse.
According to the historical society, the Seth Thomas clock and bell were
installed in the original courthouse in the summer of 1894. The bell was cast
at the McShane Bell Foundry in Baltimore. The mechanism operating the clock
was powered by 1,300 pounds of weights suspended from pulleys. In 1947, an
electric motor was installed to drive the clock and bell. The courthouse was
demolished in 1954, but the clock and the bell were saved. The bell continued
to tone above the current courthouse until the 1970s when the mechanism
controlling the bell broke and was not repaired. The bell was restored in 1991
and the clockworks were restored in the 1990s. The clock and bell tower
construction began in 2004, but sat idle until last year when Jackie Craver,
volunteer coordinator of the project for the Waller County Historical Society
volunteered to spearhead the fundraising effort to finish the project.
Thursday, December 23, 2010. By Joe Southern - Years after the project was
started and months of dormancy since the last improvements were made,
the Waller County Clock and Bell Tower has been bustling with activity in the
past week as the copper dome was mounted on top and the historic bell
refurbished and replaced. Workers with MCT Sheet Metal installed the lower
roof in the tower and then on Saturday hoisted the 3 ½-ton copper dome on top.
On Monday, the 1894 bell was returned to its spot under the dome. It took about
an hour of maneuvering for workers to get the 700-pound brass bell into place.
Tuesday morning had crews installing the clapper and the clockworks are due
to be installed in the next week or two. "Way to go Jackie Craver!!!!"

The courthouse had been recently renovated, and this new clock was a very classy looking addition.

it has always disturbed me a little several times each day that a clock with a smile on it can look so sinister.
i suppose it's true that sometimes "now" just isn't the best time...

It's hard to take pictures of this thing without reflections. The picture frame glass is not anti-glare.
What does Anker mean? Good question. Anker is the name of the Insurance company that owns the building where the clock is.
At noon twelve figures representing the history of Vienna (from the Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius to Joseph Haydn) move across the face of the clock. Every hour one of these figures (or a pair of figures) is displayed. The clock was created in 1911 by Franz von Matsch.
Lights go out and I can't be saved
Tides that I tried to swim against
You've put me down upon my knees
Oh I beg, I beg and plead (singing)
Come out of things unsaid, shoot an apple off my head (and a)
Trouble that can't be named, a tiger's waiting to be tamed (singing)
You are, you are
Confusion never stops, closing walls and ticking clocks (gonna)
Come back and take you home, I could not stop that you now know (singing)
Come out upon my seas, curse missed opportunities (am I)
A part of the cure, or am I part of the disease (singing)
You are [4x] (singing)
You are [2x]
And nothing else compares
Oh no nothing else compares
Oh and nothing else compares
You are [continues in background]
Home, home, where I wanted to go [2x](I went)
Home, home, where I wanted to go (I went)
Home, home, where I wanted to go
