WHERE THE BODIES ARE
"Where the Blue of the Night Meets the Gold of the Day" may be popular singer-actor Bing Crosby's (1904-1977) final address, but for now he resides in Holy Cross Cemetery, Culver City, California.

150 North Riverside Plaza is a high-rise currently under construction. One signature aspect of this building is the way the office floors cantilever out from the central core. The building is constructed with a smaller base for a height of 8 stories (104ft), and it cantilevers out to the full size of the office floor space.
As required by the city of Chicago for any new building, the developer is required to set aside part of the lot size for public park space. Due to this the remaining 75 percent of the project site is reserved for a public park, amphitheater, and riverwalk. The site is also being built over tracks that carry Metra and Amtrak trains into Chicago Union Station (along the right edge of the photo). On the right right: River Point bldg.

Near Montrose, Colorado. Water is currently overflowing due to snowmelt.
Crystal Dam is a 323-foot-tall double curvature, concrete thin arch dam located six miles downstream from Morrow Point Dam on the Gunnison River in Colorado. Crystal Dam is the newest of the three dams in Curecanti National Recreation Area and was finished in 1976. The dam impounds Crystal Reservoir. Crystal Dam and reservoir are part of the Bureau of Reclamation's Wayne N. Aspinall Unit of the Colorado River Storage Project, which retains the waters of the Gunnison River and its tributaries for agricultural and municipal use in the American Southwest. The dam's primary purpose is hydroelectric power generation.
Peoria and Western 1752/1750 with PREX 1603 idle next to the office at Kolbe on July 5, 2011. Switching the RIP and siding and a trip to Hollis Pass seemed to be the only things on the agenda for today.
Should probably start using oozebane.
However recent builds have been much better in the "sticking to the build base" category-- this one came out flat as a pancake!
Kantara Castle, located in Cyprus and currently under the de-facto control of Northern Cyprus, stands as a testament to the island's rich history and the convergence of various architectural influences. Despite the lack of a precise construction date, the prevailing theory suggests its origins during the Byzantine period, combining both Byzantine and Frankish architectural elements. The castle's name, derived from the Cypriot Maronite Arabic word "kandak," meaning stone bridge, reflects its strategic location and purpose.
Situated to the east of Buffavento Castle and forming a protective axis with St. Hilarion Castle to the west, Kantara played a vital role in signaling between the castles during the Byzantine period. The exact commission date of these castles remains unknown, with various theories proposing events in 965, 1091, or the late 11th century, associating their construction with the expulsion of Arabs, the rebel Rhapsomates, or the upheaval caused by the First Crusade.
Kantara Castle served multiple functions throughout its existence, including acting as a watchtower for pirate raids, an administrative center, and a place of incarceration. Its historical significance is highlighted by its capture in 1191 by Richard the Lionheart during his campaign against Isaac Komnenos of Cyprus. The Knights Templar briefly ruled the island until a revolt in Nicosia led to its resale to Guy of Lusignan in 1192.
The castle faced a period of peace until the death of Hugh I of Cyprus in 1218, triggering a struggle for regency. The conflict escalated into open war in 1228, with the castle besieged by the Ibelins in 1229. After a year-long siege, Gauvain de Cheneche, the castle's commander, was killed, leading to the surrender of the garrison. The Lusignans continued their rule with occasional interruptions, including the Republic of Genoa's invasion in 1373, which was successfully repelled by Prince John of Antioch.
The importance of the Kyrenian castles, including Kantara, was recognized by James I of Cyprus and Peter II of Cyprus, who expanded their fortifications. Transforming Kantara into a garrison castle, they erected barracks and an enormous cistern. In 1489, the Republic of Venice acquired the island, and by 1519, Italian engineers deemed the castle obsolete. The Kyrenian mountain castles fell into disuse, with the last garrison departing in 1525. The castle was ultimately dismantled in 1560, though its buildings remained relatively well-preserved until the early 20th century when looting took its toll.
In 1905, Kantara Castle was classified as historic heritage, thanks to the efforts of French archaeologist Camille Enlart. Restoration work was undertaken in 1914 by British colonial authorities led by George Jeffery, aimed at attracting sightseers. In 1939, efforts to prevent the collapse of the horseshoe tower's foundation were initiated, further contributing to the preservation of this remarkable historical site. Kantara Castle stands today as a captivating testament to Cyprus's multifaceted history and the resilience of its architectural heritage.
Amazon was presented 24 years ago as well as it was fairly a tiny endeavor at that time. This firm acquired popularity as people recognized that purchasing products online is easier compared to seeing the regional stores. Time after time Amazon expanded its service area as well as today it provides items around the world. It is world's largest online purchasing destination as well as it does not desire its customers to be sorry for after discovering of stock items. This firm mainly concentrates on using remarkable customer support and that's why it conceals currently unavailable items.
Currently, American Apparel has pretty much the same type of image to consumers that they have in the past. Controversy still comes to mind when thinking about American Apparel. However, within the past few months, Dov Charney was forced to resign as CEO. Since then, the company has not really stepped forward and away from the controversy to change their identity (which is why I put a question mark). However, since June, there haven't been many ads that have stirred controversy. Their social media shows women more clothed than they ever have been in the past. They also sell clothing for dogs and cats. They still sell clothes that address political issues. They've also teamed up with Refinery29 for a contest for their consumers.
Still needs the seat worked on a bit, some brakes, and a paint job. Might extend the bars a bit too.

Doing a bunch of portraits for work. This is the setup I'm using in case anyone is interested. I'm shooting at ISO200 1/200 shutter the 2 light are set to 1/8th power on the floor and 1/6th on the stand. The on camera flash is adding 1/16 power to help with shadows just a touch. The natural light helps with focusing but is not apparent in the shots.
