This is the power house of the Thorpe Hydropower Station, located in the West Fork Tuckaseigee River Gorge on North Carolina Highway 107 near Tuckasegee, North Carolina. The power station, which was created by damming the West Fork of the Tuckaseigee River at Onion Falls to form Lake Glenville, located 1,207 feet above the power house, the highest vertical drop of any hydroelectric station east of the Rocky Mountains. The power house is a fine example of the fusion of the Gothic Revival and Art Deco styles, featuring Art Deco massing and trim with Gothic-style windows, and is arguably one of the most beautiful power stations in the United States. The power house was built with the lake in 1941 by the Nantahala Power and Light Company to help power the ALCOA Aluminum Plant in Eastern Tennessee, Knoxville, with support from the federal government as it was aiding the war effort during World War II. The construction was a massive undertaking, requiring the removal of the entire town of Glenville, which sat in the West Fork Tuckaseigee River Valley, and the building of the highest lake east of the Rocky Mountains, at a surface elevation of 3,494 feet. The power plant also has the feature of a long distance from the lake to the turbines, during which the water is channeled through a tunnel and pipe system many miles long, which is visible from North Carolina Highway 107 near Glenville. The power house itself sits in the West Fork Tuckaseigee River Gorge just above the community of Tuckasegee, near a smaller lake and power plant built during the 1950s to provide supplementary power generation capacity. The hydroelectric complex is one of two in the county, the other being on the East Fork of the Tuckaseigee River in Canada Township, consisting of four reservoirs built in the early 1950s - Cedar Cliff, Bear, Wolf Creek, and Tannassee Creek. The combined power output of the dams provided power to the burgeoning industrial sector in the upper Tennessee River Valley during the 1940s and 1950s, and provided additional flood control to prevent a repeat of the 1940 flood that devastated nearby communities.

Memorial garden located in downtown Eugene, Oregon, near the site where Japanese Americans from the area were assembled prior to their World War II expulsion and incarceration. The Eugene Japanese American Art Memorial was dedicated on February 19, 2007, the 65th anniversary of Executive Order 9066.
The memorial has its roots in annual Days of Remembrance in the Eugene area that have taken place since 2000. Wanting a more permanent commemoration, the Eugene Japanese American Art Memorial Committee (EJAAMC) formed in 2003 and began planning and fundraising for a permanent memorial. The City of Eugene approved the use of a site at Willamette & 6th Avenue east of the Hult Center for the Performing Arts, a city-run complex that includes a concert hall, theater, and art gallery. A key milestone for the project was securing a $50,000 gift from the Spirit Mountain Community Fund, a foundation run by the Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde, funded by proceeds generated by the Spirit Mountain Casino, located in northwest Oregon. The matching grant spurred fundraising efforts, and the $100,000 required for the memorial was secured by 2006.
The 1,800 square foot memorial takes the form of a garden that includes a central sculpture, along with three stone pillars featuring art and text on the themes of "Justice," "Perseverance," and "Honor." Kenge Kobayashi, who was incarcerated at Tule Lake as a teenager, designed the memorial and did the paintings on the pillars. The "Justice" stone features a painting of Fred Korematsu, Gordon Hirabayashi, and Min Yasui against a backdrop on the American flag and barbed wire, with text briefly profiling the men, with a focus on Yasui's story, given Yasui's Oregon roots. The "Perseverance" stone depicts a Japanese American family behind barbed wire with a guard tower in the background, with text that provides an overview of the exclusion, incarceration, and eventual reparations. The "Honor" stone shows a Nisei soldier against a backdrop of barbed wire and focuses on the story of Japanese Americans were served in the armed forces during World War II. The EJAAMC held a design contest for the sculpture, which was won by David Clemons. Clemon's bronze sculpture titled "Forced Journey" features a Japanese American girl sitting on a pile of suitcases and footlockers reaching out for a butterfly.

"Park View" is a beautiful and grand Edwardian villa featuring Art Nouveau design features including its name in Baldur font and
Park View was built in early 1924 by self-taught blacksmith and jinker-builder, Jim Byrnes who had recently transferred his business from Melton to Racecourse Road, Flemington where he shod horses for the showgrounds and race-track nearby. He built Park View a few doors along the street from the blacksmith business, and the residence has remained in the Byrnes family ever since. The unusual two-storey Swiss chalet style bungalow combines a variety of eclectic features and is constructed of solid reinforced concrete predominantly finished with roughcast. A garage at the rear is constructed of brick with a tiled roof and a cement rendered facade to match the house.

Park View was built in early 1925 by self-taught blacksmith and jinker-builder Jim Byrnes, who owned a horseshoeing business a few doors away. The unusual Swiss Chalet style of the house and decorative features include rampant terracotta kangaroos on the gables and a kookaburra stained glass window. Many aspects of the house stem from the shortage and expense of traditional building materials between the wars, with the house constructed in solid concrete reinforced with old tram cables and other recycled materials. The iron panels in the unusual front fence are apparently recycled from the Flemington Racecourse Members’ Stand, demolished in the 1920s.

Park View is of historical, architectural, and social significance to Victoria
Park View is architecturally, historically and socially important for contributing to a wider understanding of post World War One housing trends in metropolitan Melbourne when the cost of living was high and when materials were expensive and in short supply. The residence is socially important for expressing the ideal of home ownership promoted widely in magazines of the day. Its construction in concrete is historically and architecturally important as a representee example of the experimentation with various methods of cost efficient building that were becoming increasingly available to the aspiring home owner throughout the inter-war years. The house, with its use of tram cables for concrete reinforcing, as well as other recycled materials in its fabric is of further architectural, historical and social interest as an innovative response to the constraints imposed on home builders of the period. The style of the house and its decorative features are of historical, social and architectural significance as a unique interpretation of contemporary mainstream ideals in a vernacular idiom peculiar to its blacksmith owner/builder

This is a feature of Manny's G35 for the www.artofstance.com feature!
Art of Stance was started by three photography enthusiasts to showcase the fusion of West coast car culture and photography. Even though this blog is called Art of Stance, the main focus of the site isn’t aggressive wheel fitment (though we do love it!). Art of Stance is a showcase of modified, tuned, classic, rare, and exotic automobiles. Something that the creators of this blog and also our readers can appreciate.

Built in 1928, this 27-story Art Deco-style skyscraper was designed by Holabird & Root for Rufus R. Rand, a World War I Aviator and member of the family that owned the Minneapolis Gas Company. The building was at one point renamed the Dain Tower, while it was occupied by the firm of Dain Rauscher Wessels, an investment bank, before they moved in 1992. The building features an exterior with heavy vertical emphasis, decorative metal and stone spandrel panels, limestone bocks, and several setbacks near the top of the building, with the interior lobby featuring Art Deco ornamentation and decoration. The building now functions as a the Rand Tower Hotel, a Mariott Tribute Hotel. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1994.

Manrique was born in Arrecife, Lanzarote. He fought in the Spanish Civil War as a volunteer in the artillery unit on Franco's side. He attended the University of La Laguna to study architecture, but after two years he quit his studies. He moved to Madrid in 1945 and received a scholarship for the Art School of San Fernando, where he graduated as a teacher of art and painting. Between 1964 and 1966 he lived in New York City, where a grant from Nelson Rockefeller allowed him to rent his own studio. He painted many works here, which were exhibited in the prestigious "Catherine Viviano" gallery.
Manrique had a major influence on the planning regulations in Lanzarote, when he recognised its tourist potential and lobbied successfully to encourage sympathetic development of tourism. One aspect of this is the lack of high rise hotels on the island. Those that are there are in keeping with the use of traditional colours in their exterior decoration.
Manrique died in a car accident at Tahíche, Teguise, very near the Fundación, his Lanzarote home, in 1992. He was aged 73.
The César Manrique foundation was set up in 1982 by César Manrique and a group of friends but wasn't officially opened until 1992 after Manrique died. The foundation, based at Manrique's home before he moved out for a quieter life, is a private, non-profit organisation set-up to allow tourists access to Manrique's home. The foundation is also an art-gallery featuring art created by Manrique himself as well as that acquired during his life. The gallery includes original sketches by Pablo Picasso and Joan Miró. The money the foundation takes from ticket sales goes toward raising awareness about the art of Lanzarote, as well as being used to fund the foundation's "artistic, cultural and environmental activities".
Manrique's home itself is built within a 3,000 m2 lot, on the site of the Lanzarote eruptions in the 18th century and was created upon Manrique's return from New York City in 1966. The rooms on the first floor, including the artist studios, were created with the intention of keeping with Lanzarote traditions, yet making them more modern with open spaces and large windows. The "ground floor", more appropriately titled the "basement", contains five areas situated within volcanic bubbles, the rooms bored into volcanic basalt. There is a central cave which houses a recreational area, including a swimming pool, a barbecue and a small dance floor.
Once outside the main house, the visitor comes to the outside area, where there is a small square with a fountain in the middle before approaching a small café area and the visitor shop. This area was once César Manrique's garage.
One of the foundation's fundamental missions is to oppose the spread of high-rise concrete across the Spanish coastline and her island. The foundation recently brought attention to 24 illegally erected hotels in Lanzarote. This is a famous art gallery in the Island of Lanzarote

Memorial garden located in downtown Eugene, Oregon, near the site where Japanese Americans from the area were assembled prior to their World War II expulsion and incarceration. The Eugene Japanese American Art Memorial was dedicated on February 19, 2007, the 65th anniversary of Executive Order 9066.
The memorial has its roots in annual Days of Remembrance in the Eugene area that have taken place since 2000. Wanting a more permanent commemoration, the Eugene Japanese American Art Memorial Committee (EJAAMC) formed in 2003 and began planning and fundraising for a permanent memorial. The City of Eugene approved the use of a site at Willamette & 6th Avenue east of the Hult Center for the Performing Arts, a city-run complex that includes a concert hall, theater, and art gallery. A key milestone for the project was securing a $50,000 gift from the Spirit Mountain Community Fund, a foundation run by the Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde, funded by proceeds generated by the Spirit Mountain Casino, located in northwest Oregon. The matching grant spurred fundraising efforts, and the $100,000 required for the memorial was secured by 2006.
The 1,800 square foot memorial takes the form of a garden that includes a central sculpture, along with three stone pillars featuring art and text on the themes of "Justice," "Perseverance," and "Honor." Kenge Kobayashi, who was incarcerated at Tule Lake as a teenager, designed the memorial and did the paintings on the pillars. The "Justice" stone features a painting of Fred Korematsu, Gordon Hirabayashi, and Min Yasui against a backdrop on the American flag and barbed wire, with text briefly profiling the men, with a focus on Yasui's story, given Yasui's Oregon roots. The "Perseverance" stone depicts a Japanese American family behind barbed wire with a guard tower in the background, with text that provides an overview of the exclusion, incarceration, and eventual reparations. The "Honor" stone shows a Nisei soldier against a backdrop of barbed wire and focuses on the story of Japanese Americans were served in the armed forces during World War II. The EJAAMC held a design contest for the sculpture, which was won by David Clemons. Clemon's bronze sculpture titled "Forced Journey" features a Japanese American girl sitting on a pile of suitcases and footlockers reaching out for a butterfly.

As Hollywood's Biggest Night looms, the nights of Red Carpet interviews, ancillary awards shows, glad-handing anyone and everyone who had a part in making the projects that people spent years of their lives dedicated to, just for the recognition of their peers and the world, the daytime Gifting Suites are kind of a way for the movers and shakers to discover some new things they may have never known they need, to make their lives easier during that next project.

This Gifting Suite event was held on Friday, March 2nd, in the heart of Hollywood, hosted by the Celebrity Connected team.
The King Kong of suites, around 50 vendor tables in a massive ballroom, 3 aisles with a dizzying number of new baubles and self care products from beyond the imagination, starting with the most impressive display, was Blush & Whimsy several covered smaller tables overflowing with floral arrangements, with their gifting boxes nestled among the blooms, a blossom wall with foot lighting reminiscent of the KimYe wedding photo presenting, under a glass bell jar, the three lipstick tubes being gifted. 10/10 on presentation. Each lipstick has a tiny flower inside, they're also translucent, and they change color based on your skin temperature and pH. *mindblown.gif*
The coolest thing there was the ZUS Smart Car Charger from Nonda in a limited edition gold version. What makes the ZUS special is its the Nest digital thermostat for your car... a simple plug-in that you link to an app for iOS or Android, and it makes it so you can find your car easier when parking, lets you share your parking spot with friends via the app, tracks your mileage, gives you a report on your car's battery health, parking meter alert, dual position USB port so however you plug in, it'll always be right. *USB Superposition.gif* Oh, and it will double the charging speed for your phone. when plugged in... a quick glance at their website Nonda.co they've got everything you'd need to upgrade your car like a cyborg... back up camera, tire pressure sensor, and more... they have the technology and its well under Steve Austin's $6 Million Dollar price tag...
What looked like the most fun was You've Got Crabs a stepped-up version of Go Fish, with an expansion pack that involves shaming one of your friends and they, have to play the remainder of the game wearing rubber crab claws. Designed by the same people who made "Exploding Kittens" featuring art by The Oatmeal I'm not doing the rules or anything about it really much justice, but it looks like it will be a great party game.
There were so many products on display from a Shea Butter sculpture of the Burj Khalifa, to a copper hair mask, chocolate scented perfume, the best apple juice I've ever had, cans of flavored workout water, several chocolatiers, a bespoke pet bed designer from Australia, cold brew coffee, kids clothes that would make Pharrell jealous, contoured pillows, Scandinavian sex toys and a strawberry & habanero pepper jelly to a Las Vegas-based cookie baker who feeds the homeless. But, no gifting suite would be complete without Cyndie Wade and her hand painted wine glasses honoring the nominees.
One last thing... there were two booths, which, Celebrity Connected always seems to have a medicinal cannabis booth or two each event, sadly UPS never delivered either booth's product before the gift suite, so they were reliant on the few samples they had with them, both focused on CBD the non-psychoactive part of marijuana, CBD is the pain reliever and has a myriad of medicinal uses as salves, sprays, and smokeables to help with any number of health issues. Infinite CBD out of Colorado has topicals, vegan gummies, capsules, soap, and specialty CBD delivery systems they call "Rocket Ships" to deal with cramps, and more. The other vendor was S&J Natural Products now, I couldn't quite understand what the gentleman from S&J was saying about bioavailability and Acuity Blends with adaptogenic herbs or microencapsulation or who sizes chained triglycerides. I did try their Oracle Mist with over 75 bioactive terpenes, I'm not sure if it's meant to be a facial spray or some kind of CBD Binaca... but I do not recommend spraying it in your mouth, its fine initially, but I guess as the terpenes bioactivated, it overloaded my tastebuds...
I'm going to recommend InfiniteCBD over S&J's three dollar words and snake oil tactics, as I'm writing this, I'm on their site the products cost more, for less quantity and what I do know about Terpenes is, they're really just the oils that give the cannabis its aroma. If you're adverse to opioids for pain relief and management, CBD in its many delivery methods is certainly worth checking out, because it is not the part of marijuana that gets you High, CBD products are perfectly legal and available to ship around the United States.

140 New Montgomery Street, also known as the The Pacific Telephone Building, and, after 1984, as The Pacific Bell Building or The PacBell Building, in San Francisco's South of Market district, is an Art Deco office tower located close to the St. Regis Museum Tower and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art.
The 26-floor building was designed to consolidate numerous smaller buildings and outdated offices into a modern headquarters for The Pacific Telephone & Telegraph Co.
When opened in 1925, The Pacific Telephone Building was San Francisco's first significant skyscraper development, and was the tallest building in San Francisco until the Russ Building matched its height in 1927. The building was the first high-rise south of Market Street, and along with the Russ Building, remained the city's tallest until it was overtaken by 650 California Street in 1964. AT&T sold the building in 2007, and as of 2013, Internet company Yelp is the main tenant.
Construction and original tenant
At the time of its construction, it housed The Pacific Telephone & Telegraph Co., a member of the Bell System. The building once had a bell motif in many places on its façade, most notably surrounding the arch over the main entrance doors on New Montgomery Street. After the breakup of the Bell System (AT&T) in 1984 and the formation the regional so-called Baby Bell companies, Pacific Telephone changed its name to "Pacific Bell.
Statues of eight eagles (each 13 feet in height) perch atop the tower's crown. The building has an L-shaped floor plan, and the architecture decoratively incorporates spotlights to show the exterior's terra cotta ornamentation day and night.
The architect for the Pacific Bell Building was Timothy Pfleuger, one of the most prolific architects in San Francisco during the Art Deco era and whose work has left an indelible mark on the landscape of San Francisco. His other works include the Metropolitan Life Insurance building (now the Ritz-Carlton), the San Francisco Stock Exchange buliding, 450 Sutter Street, the I. Magnin Department Store (now part of Macy's at Geary and Stockton), numerous theaters around California, including the Castro and Alhambra theaters in San Francisco and the Paramount Theater in Oakland. He had a hand in the design of the Bay Bridge, and was an advisor for the Golden Gate international exposition. He was also involved in interior design of nightclubs of the era, including Bal Tabarin (now Bimbo's 360), Cirque at the Fairmont, the Top of the Mark, and the Patent Leather Bar at the St. Francis. He was instrumental in bringing artists to San Francisco to work on his projects, including Diego Rivera, who worked on projects for the Stock Exchange Luncheon Club and for the GGIE.
from Wikipedia:
"Timothy Ludwig Pflueger (September 26, 1892 – November 20, 1946) was a prominent architect, interior designer and architectural lighting designer in the San Francisco Bay Area in the first half of the 20th century. Together with James R. Miller, Pflueger designed some of the leading skyscrapers and movie theaters in San Francisco in the 1920s, and his works featured art by challenging new artists such as Ralph Stackpole and Diego Rivera. Rather than breaking new ground with his designs, Pflueger captured the spirit of the times and refined it, adding a distinct personal flair. His work influenced later architects such as Pietro Belluschi.
Pflueger, who started as a working-class draftsman and never went to college, established his imprint on the development of Art Deco in California architecture yet demonstrated facility in many styles including Streamline Moderne, neo-Mayan, Beaux-Arts, Mission Revival, Neoclassical and International. His work as an interior designer resulted in an array of influential interior spaces, including luxurious cocktail lounges such as the Top of the Mark at the Mark Hopkins Hotel, the Patent Leather Bar at the St. Francis Hotel and the Cirque Room at The Fairmont, three of the most successful San Francisco bars in their day.
Pflueger's social and business connections spanned the city, including three private men's clubs which he joined: the Bohemian Club, the Olympic Club and The Family. He designed buildings and interior architecture for the latter two. Pflueger was highly placed in several important planning organizations: He was the chairman of a committee of consulting architects on the Bay Bridge project and he served on the committee responsible for the design of the Golden Gate International Exposition in 1939. Pflueger was a board member of the San Francisco Art Association starting in 1930, and served variously as chair and director. While on the board, Pflueger helped the organization found the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SFMOMA)."
