Rose and Dylan. Back in May my year had our last days of school before GCSEs. That means our last days in uniform, our last days in our forms and the end of five years.
Bingley Five-Rise locks are situated on the Leeds-Liverpool canal, 16 miles from Leeds and 110 miles from Liverpool, in the town of Bingley, just outside Bradford.
The locks were built in 1774 by four local stonemasons and were designed by John Longbottom of Halifax.
Somewhat uniquely, the five locks are joined together, where the higher gate of the lower lock serves as the lower gate of the next (you would normally expect to see a series of individual locks with two gates each). The locks span 320 feet and raise boats over 59 feet from top to bottom.
The locks won a National Heritage award in 1975 and were the North West regional winner of the Canal and Riverside Trust's Waterway Length Competition in 1993.
FIVE 5TAGES STARTED AS AN ARTISTIC COLLABORATION BETWEEN KIRIAKO IATRIDIS AND BRIANNE URZADA. IN MARCH OF 2013, AT THE AGE OF TWENTY THREE, BRIANNE WAS DIAGNOSED WITH STAGE THREE HODGKIN’S LYMPHOMA. DURING HER FOURTH ROUND OF CHEMOTHERAPY SHE AND KIRIAKO DECIDED TO DOCUMENT HER BODY AND EMOTIONS. EACH IMAGE REPRESENTS ONE OF THE FIVE STAGES OF GRIEF AS WRITTEN BY KÜBLER-ROSS (DENIAL, ANGER, BARGAINING, DEPRESSION AND ACCEPTANCE).
IN 2015, AFTER BEING IN REMISSION FOR ALMOST TWO YEARS, BRIANNE AND KIRIAKO DECIDED TO PUT THE IMAGES TO GOOD USE. THEY HOSTED AN ART AUCTION AT KIRIAKO’S STUDIO, SELLING THE FIVE 5TAGES PRINTS, AND AN ORIGINAL PAINTING BY BRIANNE. AS WELL AS A FEW DONATED PIECES BY OTHER ARTISTS. THE EVENT WAS SUCCESSFUL AND HAS RAISED OVER $60,000 FOR THE HOSPITALS OF REGINA FOUNDATION.
TODAY, BRIANNE IS STILL CANCER FREE, AND TOGETHER WITH HER HUSBAND ERIC, ARE RAISING THEIR NEW LITTLE BOY, WINSTON.

All too often, we don’t go somewhere new or different because we don’t know what to expect. That is where this new feature, “Let’s Do Lunch,” comes in.

Speaking of Carl's Jr. the Carl's Jr. (or Hardees to all my East Coast and Midwestern friends) on Temecula's Winchester Road closed!!!
This Carl's Jr. was the closest to my workplace and I often stopped there for lunch or breakfast, so with Burger King gone and Carl's Jr. gone, only McDonald's, Five Guys, Taco Bell and the food court plus other snack places at the mall remain!
Former drive-thru window with painted red star, what are they now, Macy's!?

Investors often want to compare gold coins before adding them to their portfolio. They want to be sure that are making the right choice and that the coin they're picking intrinsically adds value to their portfolio. According to Daniel Fisher, founder and CEO of Physical Gold, there are five important factors that investors need to consider when selecting a coin. These five factors are the holy grail of value addition to a gold portfolio.
In a recent video launched by Physical Gold, Daniel applies this model to compare two iconic British coins - the gold Britannia and the Sovereign. The five-step approach first evaluates the price. This is perhaps one of the most important factors for any investor. The Britannia is four times as large as the Sovereign and therefore more expensive. However, the coin delivers better value for money than the Sovereign since production costs are lower on account of its size. Still, the Britannia is usually out of bounds for smaller investors and the Sovereign offers easier access to the market.
But, the factors that add balance to a portfolio is not just price, but liquidity and divisibility. When compared to the Britannia, the Sovereign scores high on both. Having been around for more than two centuries, the Sovereign is blessed with a strong secondary market which makes it possibly the most liquid coin in the world. The coin is also available in a number of denominations, giving investors the flexibility to sell a small part of their holding whenever required.
The next facet of comparison is variety. The variety of monarchs available on the face of the Sovereign enhances its collectable potential and provides balance. Several monarchs are featured on different editions of the coin. Then you can choose the different years of issue. A mix of all these different types of Sovereigns can, therefore, enhance your portfolio, creating tremendous value. Daniel tells investors that if the portfolio size is £2,000 to £5,000, Sovereigns are the way to go. If someone is investing more than £10,000, then divisibility can be created by investing in the Britannia. Overall, this fascinating video provides a great visual lesson, as well as a repository of information about the Britannia, the Sovereign and how to evaluate coins when building a robust gold portfolio.

A Dodge Charger actually used in the Fast Five movie was on display during the 2011 New York International Auto Show.

...wonder what his brother was saying there in the background, hehe.
Each summer, the Fashion Center BID and the DOT Urban Art Program select an artist to present artwork along Broadway between 36th and 41st Streets in Manhattan. This year, international artist Xin Song presented "Five Elements," a series of five eight-foot tall glass art fixtures. On one side of the structure, the artist implemented traditional Chinese paper-cut techniques creating forms out of site-specific photographs of the neighborhood, and on the reverse side, the artist created silhouettes out of black paper reminiscent of the wrought iron filigree elements found in historic New York City architecture.
The configuration of both paper-cuts formed new images that represented the five elements: water, fire, wood, metal and earth. Together, the structures were an exploration of environmental and personal transformations in New York City's surroundings. A corresponding floral pattern was painted in circular patterns on the plaza pavement to complement the exhibit.

Due to everyone using both lanes for both directions on a two lane road we got into a five hour traffic jam. The subsequent drive was evidently terrifying along the mountain roads, but I didn't notice.
Located in the Staines memorial gardens by the Thames, just behind the old Town Hall (now a pub), the 'Five Swimmers' by David Wynne is a very valuable sculpture that was originally the centrepiece of the Elmsleigh Centre Shopping Centre when it was opened by the Queen in 1980.
It was removed from the shopping centre and went missing for many years (allegedly it was left abandoned in a stone-yard) before finding it's new resting place here.
David Wynne was born in London in 1926, and seems to have had no formal art training. His figurative sculpture concentrates on movement, and includes most notably 'Girl With Doves' (1970), 'The Dancers' (1971) and 'Dancer with Bird' (1975), all to be found in Cadogen Square Gardens. Other works in London are 'Girl with a Dolphin' Chelsea Bridge and 'Boy with a Dolphin', the latter being at the Chelsea School of Art.
Wynne is also credited with designing the 'joined hands' on the modern 50 pence piece to represent European accord.
