I really like this custom chandelier, hanging in a gazebo at a country venue where I recently attended a wedding.
The New York State Capitol is the capitol building of the U.S. state of New York. Housing the New York State Legislature, it is located in the state capital city Albany as part of the Empire State Plaza on State Street in Capitol Park. The building, completed in 1899 at a cost of $25 million (worth approximately half a billion current dollars), was the most expensive government building of its time.

For further Cool Globes: Hot Ideas for a Cooler Planet, is a public art exhibition designed to raise awareness of solutions to climate change. Cool Globes grew out of a commitment at the Clinton Global Initiative in 2005, and was incorporated as a non-profit organization in 2006. Since that time, Cool Globes premiered in Chicago and went on tour across the country from Washington DC to San Francisco, San Diego, Sundance, Los Angeles, Houston and Cleveland. In the fall of 2009, Cool Globes opened the first international exhibit in Copenhagen. From there our globes were in Geneva, Marseille, Vancouver, Amsterdam, Jerusalem and Boston. It is our hope that the millions of people who have experienced the exhibit, leave with a vast array of solutions to climate change, and with one clear message….we can solve this.
Message from Wendy Abrams, founder of Cool Globes
I never considered myself an environmentalist. To me, an environmentalist was a guy in a raft protesting to save the whales as he drifted in the Pacific. But in 2001, that changed when I casually stumbled upon a Time magazine article about global warming, depicting potentially catastrophic consequences within the century. As a mother of four, this hit a nerve – the next century is my children’s lifetime. I was suddenly motivated to act and spent the next five years educating myself by joining environmental groups, attending conferences, meeting with scientists and becoming engaged in the political debate.
The more I learned, the more I was bewildered by the discrepancy between the scientific community’s alarm and general public’s silence. The public seemed relatively unconcerned by the scientists’ daunting predictions, if they were even aware of the predictions at all. The American press showed disproportionately little interest in covering global warming, given the magnitude of the problem. When the press did cover the issue, studies showed that many people tuned out because they felt overwhelmed by the problem and helpless as to the solutions.
I was intrigued by the question of how to capture the public’s attention on a subject as complex as global warming. One night, in a casual discussion with friends, we came up with an idea – “public art with a purpose.” The idea was to put sculptures on the sidewalk, each depicting a solution to global warming, forcing people to confront the issue, but in a non-threatening manner.
As a participant at the 2006 Clinton Global Initiative, I was asked to make a commitment to take action. With the incentive to return to the next annual conference, I put my pledge in writing. I committed to raise awareness of global warming using the medium of public art, and established the non-profit organization, Cool Globes, Inc.
Over the next year, what I discovered was that this was an issue that people were eager to address, particularly when we mentioned the emphasis on solutions. People whom I had never met prior to this project devoted themselves entirely to Cool Globes.
The Chicago exhibit, which featured more than 120 globes, was hugely successful. Millions of people experienced the globes and the exhibit inspired more than 5,000 online pledges by individuals to adopt solutions to global warming. The popularity of Cool Globes in Chicago has inspired other cities across the country and around the world to inquire about the possibility of replicating the project. Cool Globes has gone on the road during across the United States from Washington DC to California to inspire more individuals to implement simple solutions in their lives to fight global warming.
This has been an exciting project from day one. I’m proud of all the hard work by so many who have made this possible. I do believe Cool Globes is inspiring people to make a change and fight global warming.

If you look out through the window of Chicago Cultural Center’s Bradley Hall, you see the Bean and Millenium Park. I liked the layers of places so much when I looked out, I wanted to share them with you. Thank you for visiting my page 😊

Connecting the Zoo with the Pond, Inscope is a striking example of Ruskinian Gothic architecture perfected by Park architect Jacob Wrey Mould. Inscope was one of three structures built during the 1870s in response to the overflow of pedestrians competing with horseback riders and carriage drivers. (The others were Gapstow Bridge and Outset Arch, which no longer exists). The elegant arch is constructed of pink and gray granite.

I'm crazy about this photo. This photo describes my whole impression of Korea. Evening, open pubs, a girl coming home from work, neon signs, a lot of outdoor advertising and wires, but trees and perfectly laid tiles. This is an actual cyberpunk of our days.
Walking around downtown San Diego, you are invariably drawn to two landmarks, PetCo Park and the Convention Center.
PetCo belongs to the newer generation of ballparks located right smack in the middle of a city. The free viewing areas out beyond center field are a nice touch. The mix of swaying palms and beach sand stamp PetCo Park as a unique and distinctive park that surely provides a sense of place. There is certainly no confusing PetCo with SafeCo.
Nearby, the massive convention center dominates the waterfront. Thankfully, the architects were kind enough to provide public walkways that allow pedestrians to traverse the mammoth structure, knocking off the mile that it would otherwise take for you to walk around. Along the way, you can admire the Flame of Friendship, a 21-foot tall polished stainless steel sculpture presented as a gift by the Government of Mexico to the people of San Diego as a gesture of friendship.
The highlight on the walkabout for me was wandering into the Horton Grand Hotel, a modern-day restoration of two separate (and relocated) historic hotels--The Grand Horton Hotel and the Brooklyn-Kahle Saddlery Hotel--that retains that old-timey charm of 1880s California.
A quick weekend away saw us in Sydney last month, this fabulous space was breakfast on the last day.

What comes to your mind when you see something like this?
As I’m uploading this picture (about 3 hours after I took this), there is a very heavy thunderstorm here in Pittsburgh. I had to wait quite a bit to get this picture today. So I wonder do I want to see thunderstorms everyday or …. Do we want to wait and face challenges everyday to get the results we want or do we just take the easy path and be happy with what we get….. Do we want to wait and face challenges everyday to get the results we want or do we just take the easy path and be happy with what we get….. We choose. Guess, nothing is free in life.
The tall structure is the Cathedral of Learning and other glass building where the rays are falling is Cyert Hall, CMU. The only glass building in the CMU campus (at least till today).
