Hook from one of those expandable high-rise construction crane thingies, downtown San Francisco.
I'm sure this is a metaphor for something, but I have no idea what.

Peter Pan Themed Cake for my daughter's 5th birthday - she insisted on various characters for her cake and as we were having her party on board the tall ship in Glasgow I made a ship cake.
We used a chrome plated loop pull turned on its side for a unique outfit staging hook. Remember, black is thinning.

This solid brass coat hook comes from an "old federal building", according to the label on the back.
Being in Chicago, this likely means it originally hung somewhere in Henry Ives Cobb's Chicago Federal Building, demolished in 1965. I imagine dozens of them, lining the hallway of the judges' chambers... or in a cloak room off the lobby. Who knows.
I love the worn patina, the little voids and spots where the molten metal didn't quite fill, and the overall size and heft; it juts out 4" from the base, and stands nearly 5.5" tall. Feels like it's around a pound.
I hope to one day reproduce these in brass - maybe also a darkened bronze. It'd make a killer bathrobe hook, and I could even imagine a row of them, lined up on an exposed brick wall in a garage or barn.
It's a simple, utilitarian design that neither Melissa nor I have seen before. That's saying something, as we've looked at a lot of old hardware. At $25, we just couldn't pass up.
Found over the weekend locally on Craigslist.
Sandy Hook as seen from Mt. Mitchell, Atlantic Highlands, NJ, You can see the lighthouse, World War I battlements, the missiles at the entrance to Ft. Hancock, and officers row. And, of course, New York City in the background. Unfortunately, there was a bit of haze in the air, so the view was somewhat disappointing!
Red hook Crit,
Fixed gear race in NYC, pretty amazing to watch guys bomb down the straight into the hairpin at the end, brakeless, and in big packs.
Loads of stacks.

I used to live in Hook and saw these daily, the reg plates all have RAW in them!
Constructicon Hook!
Today, 3.14.11 I'll introduce Hook (rest will follow on a daily basis)
This "batch" (to say the least) I went with a special spin on Hook, using a custom cast head thanks to Calloway Custom Designs and Shapeways. The head is on a pivot. Hook will form Devastator's upper chest/torso.

This is the dray cart at the Pear Tree Inn.
in dallas there's the cowboys, stars, mavs, and rangers. there are no major sports teams here, so it's been an itty-bitty culture shock to move to austin and see just how big the longhorns are. if ut wins the rose bowl, this whole town will be burnt orange for sure.
Sandy Hook was our second stop on the second day of the challenge.
This lighthouse was built in 1764. Amazing that it is still standing today. The Americans tried to destroy it during the Revolution to keep it out of British hands, but they didn't succeed.
Great views of New York City from the top.
Peter Hook performing Unknown Pleasures live at FAC 251 Manchester to commemorate the 30th Anniversary of the death of Ian Curtis. Whilst this is not my best image of the night (more to come) I think Pete's expression, lighting etc emulate Kevin Cummings early shots of Ian and Joy Division. It was a great, emotional gig, one I was glad to attend. RIP Ian.
Early c1100 Norman bucket font of oolitic limestone, designed for total immersion , stands on a more recent base. It has a lead lining, and a recent fixed wooden surround on the upper surface
Round the upper part of the bowl, within a border, is a beaded wavy line (snakes ?) with foliage at intervals on either side and a half lozenge underneath. Round the lower part, within a border, is a series of roundels with circular medallions.
The figures show Adam and Eve (ADAM and EVA inscribed on their chests in mixed Roman and Lombardic capitals) , the tree of knowledge of good and evil, and signs of the Zodiac (Sagittarius (SAGITARIVS) , Aquarius & Aries)
Adam has a spade in his right hand and a rake held up in his left hand. Eve, who has plaited hair, holds an apple in her right hand and a fig leaf in her left.
Sagittarius (SAGITARIVS) the archer portrayed as a centaur, with the body, hind legs and tail of a horse and human torso, is turned away from Aquarius, but the upper, human part is looking back and holds a bow with a short arrow, which he is about to discharge. This combination suggests Sagittarius as the champion of all that is right and good, driving away the evil influence as represented by the flood which would destroy the world, released by Aquarius (the water carrier) who has a hooked stick over his shoulder with 2 water-bags hanging from it, and carries an axe in front of him., The destructive character of the water of the flood is thus contrasted with the regenerative power of the water of baptism.
Aries is typical as the lamb of God (Agnus Dei) which takes away the sins of the world. He is standing on a flat pedestal and below this is a tree with foliage extending on either side from the top of the trunk, suggesting the tree of life. The remaining figure is Serpens, represented as a two headed serpent, with one head biting the other. This is a symbol o f the powers of evil which war against one another and bring about their own destruction. (or possibly the symbol of eternity)

2 rivaux brament à pleins poumons depuis le milieu de l'après-midi, le moment est venu pour Captain Hook de repartir au combat...
played with some maori symbolism -- like the fish hook, and the koru with simplified manaia. don't think that the twists or the really detailed manaias are quite right for the medals, but happy to play with it more, if you like those.

Decorative hooks in Amsterdam.
Many of the homes in Amsterdam have hooks up top and lean forward. This is because the stairs are incredibly narrow and steep, but the windows tend to be big. If you want to get a sofa or a piano into an Amsterdam house, usually, the front window is the best way. The hooks are there for pulleys to get furniture and whatnot in and out of the houses.
