The Queensboro Bridge, officially named the Ed Koch Queensboro Bridge, is a cantilever bridge over the East River in New York City.
The NYATCW was in operation at what was then known as No. 401 Vernon Avenue in Long Island City, from 1886 until 1968. Of the forty-eight major terra cotta manufacturers in the United States, it was the only such plant situated in New York City. The NYATCW supplied architectural terra cotta for projects throughout the United States and Canada. Materials supplied from this location were used in constructing more than 2,000 buildings. Among the company’s most prominent contracts included Carnegie Hall and the Ansonia Hotel. Terra cotta became popular as a building material in the United States beginning in the 1870s and enjoyed a long tenure due to its flexibility, versatility, and durability.

ON THE REACTIONS I WILL TRY TO RESPOND BACK
Woonhuis van Herman Willem Daendels
Een grote donder heer en een vader van de koelies
Het geboortehuis van Herman Willem Daendels (1762-1818) en het Daendelshuis waar hij met vrouw en kinderen heeft gewoond. Daendels was voor Nederlandse begrippen een revolutionair. Hij sloot zich aan bij de patriotten, een politieke stroming die een eind wilde maken aan het vermolmde regime van stadhouder Willem V. Daendels was dan ook een fervent aanhanger van de Franse revolutie (1789). Na de Franse inval in Nederland (1795) maakte hij carrière in het Nederlandse leger. In 1807 werd Daendels door Napoleon benoemd tot gouverneur-generaal van Nederlands-Indië en voerde hij het bewind over de kolonie tot 1810. Een veel minder bekende koloniaal bestuurder uit Hattem was Johan François Adriaan Cateau van Rosevelt (1824-1891). Hij was de oudste zoon uit een verarmde Zeeuwse familie en bracht het tot agent-generaal voor de Immigratie in Suriname en later ook tot Statenlid. In tegenstelling tot Daendels, die Toewan Besar Goentoer genoemd werd, de grote donder heer, noemden de contractarbeiders in Suriname van Cateau van Rosevelt “Koelie-papa”, vader van de contractarbeiders.
Het Daendelshuis aan de Kerkhofstraat werd eerst bewoond door de schoonouders van Daendels. Zijn vrouw erfde het huis van haar ouders en heeft hier vanaf 1811 gewoond met haar kinderen, de meeste tijd zonder haar man. Daendels ging alleen naar Indië waar hij een tijdlang samenwoonde met een Bantamse prinses, waarschijnlijk de stammoeder van de Indische tak van het geslacht Daendels.

Residence of Herman Willem Daendels
A great thunder lord and a father of the coolies
The birthplace of Herman Willem Daendels (1762-1818) and the Daendelshuis where he lived with his wife and children. Daendels was a revolutionary by Dutch standards. He joined the patriots, a political movement that wanted to put an end to the rotten regime of Stadholder Willem V. Daendels was therefore a fervent supporter of the French Revolution (1789). After the French invasion of the Netherlands (1795) he made a career in the Dutch army. In 1807 Daendels was appointed governor-general of the Dutch East Indies by Napoleon and he ruled the colony until 1810. A much less well-known colonial administrator from Hattem was Johan François Adriaan Cateau van Rosevelt (1824-1891). He was the eldest son of an impoverished Zeeland family and made it to agent general for Immigration in Suriname and later also a member of parliament. In contrast to Daendels, who was called Toewan Besar Goentoer, the great thunder lord, Cateau van Rosevelt's contract workers in Suriname called “Koelie-papa”, father of the contract workers.
The Daendelshuis on Kerkhofstraat was first occupied by Daendels' in-laws. His wife inherited her parents' house and has lived here with her children since 1811, most of the time without her husband. Daendels went alone to the Indies, where he lived for a while with a Bantam princess, probably the ancestor of the Indies branch of the Daendels family.

Another month has passed and the PLPR is back to repeat its circuits of Scotland to identify any potential track defects. DRS have the contract to provide traction for these services in Scotland and on this occasion they provided RETB-fitted 37402 and 37419 (again - seemingly a favourite for these trains!)
The train is seen just north of Blackford with 1Q77 from Mossend to Inverness.

After missing the first two days of Texans training camp before agreeing to a five-year, $14 million contract Saturday, outside linebacker Brian Cushing is eager to get on the practice field today with his new teammates.
Cushing, the first-round draft choice from Southern California, is getting $10.435 million in guaranteed money to become the starter on the strong side and help improve a defense that ranked 22nd last season, including 23rd against the run.
“I’m just relieved and excited to have this done,” Cushing said. “I’m ready to play football and help the team win.”
Cushing (6-3, 262) was in Los Angeles when agent Tom Condon reached the agreement with general manager Rick Smith and director of football administration Chris Olsen.
Cushing’s contract could be worth a maximum of $18 million over five years.
In the fifth year of his deal, there’s a clause that could earn him an additional $4 million in an escalator bonus.
Odds are that Cushing’s contract will be extended before he enters the fifth season in 2013.
Smith and Olsen will have all eight of their draft choices under contract when the Texans take the field for the third day of two-a-day drills at their Methodist Training Center.
“It’s very important to have him signed,” coach Gary Kubiak said. “Rick and Chris were up at 3 in the morning trying to get it done. They’ve done a good job.
“Brian’s two days behind now, but he didn’t miss anything we did in the offseason program, so that’s a good thing. He wanted to be here while we were working on the contract, but he couldn’t.”
Rookies who have signed with the Texans report a week early for conditioning and meetings before practicing for the first time with the veterans. Cushing wanted to report with the rookies.
He was working out at Reliant Stadium last week when the Texans had to explain league rules that forced him to leave.
Cushing took what turned out to be a quick trip back to Los Angeles. He returned to Houston on Saturday afternoon.
Texans coaches are excited to get him on the practice field.
“We’re going to put the pads on (Sunday morning), and I know he’s chomping at the bit to get out there,” Kubiak said.
After the Texans used the 15th pick in the first round on Cushing, they inserted him into the starting lineup. He impressed his coaches in the organized team activities and minicamp.
“We like his presence on the ball,” Kubiak said, meaning Cushing has a knack for finding the ball and making plays. “He’s playing over the tight end, and we’re going to ask him to do a great deal. We think he can handle it.
“Brian’s very athletic. He’s physical against the run. He can rush the passer. He can drop into coverage. We brought him here for a reason, and we’re going to put him to work real fast.”
Frank Bush, who is in his first season as defensive coordinator, has to make calls that maximize Cushing’s strengths. The faster Cushing learns, the quicker Bush plans to utilize all his talent.
“We’re going to try to take advantage of all his talent,” Bush said. “Because he’s such a talented kid, there are a lot of things we can do with him.”
The coaches say they think Cushing has everything it takes to become a star at his position.
“Brian can turn and run with the tight end,” Bush said. “He’s big and strong enough to strike them at the line of scrimmage and nullify some of their speed down the field, so we’re comfortable with him in coverage.
“His ability also gives us a chance to be aggressive toward the quarterback. He’s a big guy who’s shown he can get there.”

Lake Wales is a city in Polk County, Florida. The population was 14,225 at the 2010 census. As of 2019, the population estimated by the U.S. Census Bureau is 16,759. It is part of the Lakeland–Winter Haven Metropolitan Statistical Area. Lake Wales is located in central Florida, west of Lake Kissimmee and east of Tampa.
The land around the present city was surveyed in 1879 by Sidney Irving Wailes, who changed the name of a lake, then known as Watts Lake, to Lake Wailes.
The city of Lake Wales was established near the lake in 1911–12, planned by the Lake Wales Land Company. The spelling Wales was used for the city, although the lake is still generally spelled Lake Wailes. Allen Carleton Nydegger, a Civil Engineer, was contracted by the Lake Wales Land Company to plot out the community of Lake Wales. He and his crew camped on the shores of Crystal Lake and spent months plotting out the new community. In 1925 the Atlantic Coastline Railroad built a new line from Haines City joining lines to Everglades City. A depot was opened on this line at Lake Wales. The City of Lake Wales was officially incorporated in April 1917.
In 2004, Lake Wales endured the effects of three hurricanes which came through the area: Hurricane Charley, Hurricane Frances and Hurricane Jeanne. The three hurricanes brought hurricane-force winds to the Lake Wales area within a space of 44 days. In 2017, Hurricane Irma brought more hurricane-force winds to Lake Wales.
The town lies near the geographical center of the Florida peninsula. Lake Wales is located on the Lake Wales Ridge, a sandy upland area running roughly parallel to both coasts in the center of the peninsula. According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 14.0 square miles (36 km2), of which 13.4 square miles (35 km2) is land and 0.7 square miles (1.8 km2) (4.71%) is water.
Lake Wales is located in the humid subtropical zone of the (Köppen climate classification: Cfa). In 2004, the eyes of Hurricanes Charley, Frances and Jeanne all passed near the town. Virtually all physical damage has been restored.
Local attractions in the area include:
*Bok Tower Gardens
*Camp Mack's River Resort
*Spook Hill, an optical illusion which makes a car in neutral appear as if it is traveling uphill (gravity hill)
*The commercial historic district in the heart of the old town contains important examples of architecture from the period of the Florida land boom of the 1920s. The district's tallest building, the Hotel Grand, has been boarded up for many years but has been purchased and is in the process of being restored.
*The Lake Wales Museum and Cultural Center is a history museum funded by a public-private partnership. It offers exhibits and artifacts from the pre-Columbian era to modern.
*Grove House, the visitor's center for the agricultural cooperative Florida's Natural (located across from the company's processing plant).
*Chalet Suzanne This attraction has closed.

I was really thankful today. Even though with the rain, I didn't really get that wet. I seemed to miss the worst of it between driving and having lunch. Always things to be thankful for. ❤ I only did two jobs today but one of them was my friend/customer Gary's english laurel hedge. I was pretty happy with it over all though it does have a few wholes that it needs to fill in. I hope everyone is having a great day today. 😃

Hot Springs (Lakota: mni kȟáta;[7] "hot water") is a city in and the county seat of Fall River County, South Dakota, United States. As of the 2010 census, the city population was 3,711. In addition, neighboring Oglala Lakota County contracts the duties of Auditor, Treasurer and Register of Deeds to the Fall River County authority in Hot Springs. Hot Springs is located at 43°26′N 103°29′W, in Fall River County at the southern edge of South Dakota's Black Hills. The Fall River runs through the city. According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 3.61 square miles (9.35 km2), all of it land. Hot Springs has been assigned the ZIP code 57747 and the FIPS place code 30220. The Sioux and Cheyenne people had long frequented the area, appreciating its warm springs. According to several accounts, including a ledger art piece by the Oglala Lakota artist Amos Bad Heart Bull, Native Americans considered the springs sacred. European settlers arrived in the second half of the 19th century. They first named the city "Minnekahta" after its Lakota name. It was renamed Hot Springs in 1882, which is a translation of the Native American name. A variety of health resorts were built on the tourism offered by the springs.
OK, it's been done before. I get that. But it's also a compositional idea that appears simple and one I wanted to try for myself. With today a write-off through rain, I decided to give it a whack.
Two hours later I finally got the shot I envisaged, with the assistance of the kitchen bench, a black shirt, a torch, a tissue to muffle the torchlight, a ring, an old book by Balzac (the source of the title), a wireless remote, tripod, a Canon EOS 1Ds Mark III and a Canon EF 85mm f1.2L II lens.

The aeration fountain in Lake Merritt is backlit by the sun during the Golden Hour. Located in the Trestle Glen arm of the lake, near the Pergola.
The sun was 3.7 degrees above the horizon, 22 minutes before sunset, the Golden Hour.
A personal note: I actually designed the original version of this fountain while working at an environmental engineering company in the late 1980's, under contract to the Lake Merritt Institute. The design involved choosing a size that optimized capital and operational costs to raise dissolved oxygen concentrations to desired levels.
