Abigail aged to a teen! And boy is she fat! Almost my whole town is fat! In other sim game they could gain weight, but it took a lot of food to do it and a lot of over feeding. Now they get fat on just eating when they are hungry. Kind of annoying that they force you to exercise your sim to counter just eating for survival.
The town was originally called Parco, after the Producers & Refiners Corporation (or PARCO) which founded the refinery and the company town. It was renamed Sinclair after PARCO was acquired during the Great Depression by Sinclair Consolidated Oil Corporation. The original refinery, located just east of town, remains in use to this day. Sinclair's population was 433 at the 2010 census.
The town was built as a planned community in 1924-25, designed by Denver architects Fisher & Fisher in a Spanish Colonial Revival style. The historic center of town was designated the Parco Historic District in 1987

Once shaped by Sinclair Creek, this canyon is one of the more striking geological features in Kootenay National Park. Interesting place to put a major provincial highway, that's for sure!
Sinclair's was once one of Belfast's most prestigious department stores. The first part of the store on Royal Avenue was built in 1926 in the classical style. By 1935, Sinclair's was extended with an Art Deco style addition by Belfast-born architect James Scott, who had previously designed the 1926 building. The panels carry a gilt-edged circular 'Sinclair' shield with an embossed gilt-edged capital 'S' letter.
As a consequence of the troubles, the department store closed and on 1 September 1972 and the building was sold off to a Japanese company for just £60,000. Today it is occupied by a cafe, with office space above. The building is listed Grade B+, the equivalent to Grade II* listed status in Britain.

An outdoor auto service rack at a Sinclair filling station operated in Olive Hill, Ky by my uncle, Ora "Jack" Waggoner. Check the timber structure - apparently the car was driven up the ramps, parked and then the heavy wooden runners were removed between the front and rear axles, and behind the rear wheels. I'll bet that was fun! Note the Sinclair oil products and the grease guns hanging on the posts. I think this picture is from the late 1930's, or possibly as late as the early 1940's. The C&O railroad yard is visible in the background, along with bulk gasoline tanks that belonged to another distributor on the adjacent property. It appears that the car is a late 30-something Chrysler, and may have been a city police or sheriff's car (note the siren on the running board). Uncle Jack later went on to acquire wholesale distribution rights for Pure Oil products after WWII. Collection of Bill Sartaine, used with permission.

Sinclair Lewis - Babbitt
Signet Books T2011, 1961
Cover Artist: Baryé Phillips
"The Nobel Prize-winning author's scathing portrait of a propserous hustler – successful in his business but a failure as father, husband, lover."
Entirely hand forged from virgin 5160 steel and deferentially tempered. It has a tough spine and harder edges. My blades have very thick wide tangs that have been drawn out and forged from the mother blade steel. The full cross sections and profiles of my swords are accomplished at the anvil by forging. Any stock removal is extremely minimal and only serves for finishing and sharpening.
Owning one of my blades means you will take great pride in knowing that it is the only one in the world. I may forge others in similar style and dimension but no two will ever be the same. Hand forging is an extremely difficult and labor intensive art form that produces stunningly beautiful, unique and superior edged weapons. In today’s world of mass CNC machining and cheap investment casting, high quality hand made original works are becoming extremely difficult to find. I forge every edged weapon as if it were my very own to carry into battle. It gives me great satisfaction to think that long after I am gone, my blades will proudly be displayed in silent testimony to my passion for this art form. Please study my feedback and be extremely confident that this item will meet or even exceed your expectations. SEE WHAT THIS SWORD LOOKS LIKE IN HAND BY SEARCHING SAXONFORGE ON YOU TUBE.

Designed by ecentric technology millionaire, Sir Clive Sinclair, the C5 was designed to take advantage Uk road rules. Designed to not exceed 15 mph (24km/h) and to be driven without a driver's licence.
The C5 was envisioned to help reduce inner-urban road congestion, however, certain aspects of the designed failed to meet customer requirements for weather protection, occupant crash protection and protection from the vehicluar emissions from other road users. The project also suffered from the lack of development in battery technology (still a burden to would-be electric car makers).
Perhaps a vision of the motoring future held by today's Green Lobby (so watch out!).

This is Sinclair's Bay in Caithness on the East coast of Scotland, about 10 miles south of John O’ Groats and 7 miles north of Wick. The Sinclairs are a Highland Scottish clan who held lands in the north of Scotland, the Orkney Islands, and the Lothians. The chiefs of the clan were the Barons of Roslin and later the Earls of Orkney. No certain record exists but it is likely that the Sinclairs originally came from Saint-Clair in Normandy.
Caithness is an area of about 712 square miles. As you can see the land is flat, in contrast to most of the remainder of the North of Scotland. Until the latter part of the 20th century when large areas were planted in conifers, this level profile was rendered still more striking by the almost total absence of forest. Basically, it’s a land of open, rolling farmland, moorland and scattered settlements.
Although not obvious in my photo, those castle ruins on the left are perched on a sheer cliff. That’s the old Keiss Castle. I say the old one because that ‘new’ building further inland glories in the name Keiss 'castle' too, although it is really a large and elegant Scottish Baronial house built in the late 1700s.
There was a small fortification here during the late medieval period, but in the last years of the 16th century the 5th Earl of Caithness built that castle that is now in ruins, being four storeys high, plus an attic level and a vaulted basement. There do not appear to be any defensive structures on the landward side, suggesting that Keiss was built purely with an eye to a seaborn attack. I guess that’s not surprising since this part of the coastline was a favourite landing place of raiders and pirates from Norway and Denmark. Local people lit a beacon on one of the few hills when raiders were spotted. However, the lack of land defences may have been a mistake. In 1623 when George Sinclair defied King James VI (I of England) over something, and the King not being amused, dispatched Sir Robert Gordon to sort him out. The rebellious Earl provisioned his castles for a siege [he owned two others by the sea], perhaps then realised that the King’s army were advancing by land, so he caught the next available ferry to Orkney. [OK, I made that bit up, but he did go by sea to Orkney somehow]. All three castles surrendered without a fight to Sir Robert but were eventually returned to the Earl's son, presumably on condition he behaved himself.
World War II saw Keiss resume a military function as, despite its remote location, the defence of Caithness became a defence priority. The coastline's proximity to the Orkney Isles - where the large anchorage at Scapa Flow was the wartime home to the larger warships of the Royal Navy's Home Fleet - made the coastline strategically important. Furthermore, with the German occupation of Norway in April 1940, Caithness suddenly seemed particularly vulnerable. The long flat beach was the recipient of a large minefield - allegedly the UK's longest in 1940 - augmented with anti-tank obstacles plus machine-gun pillboxes spaced at 400 yard intervals. Substantial land forces were based in the area with the grounds of Keiss Castle being converted into a military camp. My old boss complained to me that he spent most of his National Service after WW2 digging holes in this area…..
