A perfect example of over driving the flash. This building in Grand Rapids Michigan, should not suffer any permanent damage from the excess light.

Part of learning and growing is connecting, connecting to country, connecting to peoples, to name a few. Simon Sinek in his book Start With Why, connects to inspire.
Quote courtesy Simon Sinek - Start with Why. [cover]
Simon Sinek is leading a movement to build a world in which the vast majority of us are inspired by the work we do. Millions have already seen his video on TED.com about the importance of knowing why we do what we do. Start with Why takes the concept even deeper.
Any person or organization can explain what they do; some can explain how they are different or better; but few can clearly articulate why. WHY is not about money and profits - those are results. WHY is the thing that inspires us and inspires those around us.
From Martin Luther Kind Jr. to Steve Jobs to the Wright brothers, Start with Why shows that the leaders who inspire all think, act, and communicate in the exact same way - and it's the complete opposite of what everyone else does. Drawing on a wide range of real life stories, it provides a framework upon which organizations can be built, movements can be led, and people can be inspired - and it all starts with.....WHY.

Congregative Realism
From Pentateuch to Arpanet, databases form our ethical foundation. They total to a framework by which we determine how to be nice, and how to ward off all that wishes to harm us. So a residency is a kind of safe haven, streamlined until secular/contemporary. Tomes we build churches around seem invincible, despite millions who are over it. You can’t just throw the bath water out and leave this really important baby right there, like in a shed outside for animals.
That said, even all-powerful texts are fragile in their way. Viewed from the right angle, they’ll have a lazy eye, a crooked facial feature, bad grooming, a chapter where two editors fought out their long-term grudge only to bewilder every reader. And one can hope that somewhere on this planet, reader, fan, and underwriter of the new museum wing all mean the same thing. One word says them all. You can call the entire faithful by name in just a breath. Hello, Goodbye, and Peace.
It’s in this “just took shelter + who wants to meet up” safe space that personal growth is a basic guarantee. Graceful acceptance of flaws and a ceasing of self-shame for having them is yours free online, in big groups of friends, and honestly in quite a bit of scripture. I’m going to back off from that last point though before it goes over the edge.
If you think of what a church is like, versus wherever you live now, and extend that to art practice, there’s a distinction between soothing and tolerated waking lives. A church has ceilings and windows. The windows are stained, with lots of red. So you’re literally seeing the world through rose-colored glasses. Also high ceilings – so far up they come to a point – supercharge your limitless certainty you’re worth everything.
Do it. Go for it. And since we’re going there, let’s say that artists can, if they feel like it, live as texts. A group show would be several translations happening all at once. A database of truths emerging through acerbic contradiction would bubble up. It would be the kind of thing a community flooring it down the left hand path, somewhere in the middle of a dérive-on blast road trip invents by accident. A close-knit crop of interfacing aims quite often does produce objects and events we feel such zealotry to protect. We cloak the events in oratory and marinate the objects in myth.
It’s just like parties broke New York creators threw twenty years ago wherever they wouldn’t be kicked out, only to be codified as Lifestyle we now will our puritanical best to simulate. There’s a recipe for disaster in there. Good thing we kept the evil out.

Build4People Exhibition 2020: Green Buildings and Sustainable Neighbourhoods
Sustainable Urban Transformation III
Innovative Regulatory Framework
-> Building permits can be linked to mandatory sustainability requirements or innovative concepts.
-> All housing and most other building projects in Germany have to comply with the national energy efficiency regulation (EnEV). The requirements of EnEV are regularly tightened according to technological progress.
-> Voluntary industry self-regulation initiatives such as Green Building certification schemes can increase a building’s visibility and value.
-> Obligatory energy passes for buildings indicate about the individual energy performance of a residential unit influencing decisions to invest into energy efficiency.
Financial Incentives
-> Market mechanisms can be used to incentivize sustainable building practices. This can include:
-> Higher charges or taxes on unsustainable practices and products.
-> Subsidization of sustainable practices and products.
Subsidized interest rates for sustainable building projects.
Best Practices include:
-> The German Development Bank KfW offers financial incentives in the form of subsidized loans and grants that reward low-carbon building designs that exceed the national energy efficiency requirements.
-> Around 40% of new buildings currently being constructed in Germany receive such financial support.
After passing the Brandwood Tunnel at the West Portal, I resumed my canal walk towards Kings Norton Junction along the Stratford-on-Avon Canal.
Halfway along it started to rain!
While The Kings Norton Guillotine Lock below the bridge on Lifford Lane was restored in 2012, it is covered in graffiti and tags again. Even the signs! Needs cleaning off, and regularly. Maybe with graffiti proof paint.
This is not the place for graffiti.
Close to Kings Norton Junction.
The lock is Grade II* listed.

runs in slightly raked cast iron girder frame, the chain passing through a block
on the gate and up over 2 wheels carried on one side out and down to winch and on
the other out over a wheel supported by an elegant cast iron column before sinking

Notes
SAS® Social Network Analysis An integral component of the SAS Fraud Framework * Overview * Benefits * Features * Screenshots Fraud is a growing problem for banks and insurance companies, in large part because it is so hard to detect. That's because fraudsters act much like legitimate customers, and they employ increasingly sophisticated fraud techniques that enable them to fly well below the radar. SAS Social Network Analysis helps institutions detect and prevent fraud by going beyond individual and account views to analyze all related activities and relationships at a network dimension. Benefits * Gain a holistic view of fraud. * Identify more fraud while greatly reducing false positives. * Double or triple investigator efficiency. * Prevent future fraud.
