International Monetary Fund Managing Director Christine Lagarde delivers a statement on the conclusion of the IMF's Executive Board regular five-yearly review of the Special Drawing Rights (SDR) November 30, 2015 at the IMF Headquarters in Washington, DC. Lagarde stated “The Executive Board's decision to include the RMB in the SDR basket is an important milestone in the integration of the Chinese economy into the global financial system. It is also a recognition of the progress that the Chinese authorities have made in the past years in reforming China’s monetary and financial systems. The continuation and deepening of these efforts will bring about a more robust international monetary and financial system, which in turn will support the growth and stability of China and the global economy.” IMF Staff Photo/Stephen Jaffe

Firstly - ''Alcohol is a drug, too''....... (Statement from Drug Action Week (even though Drug Action Week only brands the drug ethanol a DRUG for one week a year and a drink for the other 51 weeks a year).
Secondly, Oprah Winfrey's anti-drug stance is bullshit when she consumes a recreational, psychoactive drug that has been branded the World's most dangerous drug, under the International Criterias of Harm, Efficacy and Safety.
Thirdly, Oprah Winfrey, (just like the rest of our 'Say no to illicit drugs only'' Politicians and other collectives), has joined others in condemning and waging war on any drug she doesn't take, advocate, or have a personal and/ or political stake in.
NOTE: Even though they very rarely wield this next statement, the Australian Health Dept. have stated that ethyl alcohol is the most widely consumed psychoactive drug in Australia.
They actually said USED...... but considering that Australian stats state that over 64% of Australians abuse the drug ethanol/ethyl alcohol on a regular basis, they should have stated the word that I stated ''CONSUMED''.
They did not state this for a specific reason - because a No Tolerance, No Acceptance Government does not understand - or want to understand - that there is a difference between use and abuse. To them, it's all either ''No Tolerance on consumption, including use'', or ''Universal Tolerance on consumption, including hard core abuse ....depending on those buzzwords 'licit or illicit'!
They forgot to state that it's also the official drug of the 'say no to drugs'/ no tolerance against drugs Collectives, as well as being the official drug drink of Politics, Law Enforcement, Media, Educators, Sporting groups, Fashion groups, Music groups and - of course - the Entertainment Groups that constantly hold anti-illicit/ drug and alcohol free KIDS PARTIES at 18+ ethanol drug dealing establishments (buzzwords pubs, clubs, hotels and anywhere else that is now a drug pushing medium, in a ''Say NO to drugs'' Country).
WHY? Well, as long as the drug isn't branded 'illicit', who gives a XXXX? And that includes giving a XXXX about ethanol/ ethyl Alcohol Drug Empires dominating Australia, without being made to put out any warnings in their flood of drug advertising (alcohol advertising) about insignificant things like:
1) 60 medical conditions (including cancer and psychosis)
2) numerous negative social conditions (ie domestic violence, child abuse and the ethanol/ alcohol drug induced unprovoked assaults at pubs, clubs, hotels and in the streets.
3) The LD50 toxicity death ratio.
4) The amount of dead these licensed to kill ethanol/ alcohol drug dealers help to kill every year.
5) No matter the lies and the bullshit ethanol/ ethyl alcohol is a DRUG not a drink!
.....Yet Politicians have protected these alcohol/ ethanol drug empires from the evil word 'Drug' - including when it comes to telling kids that it's only a DRINK! The gutless cowards don't even call it 'strong drink' any more, it's just a drink, a beverage and the official drink/ beverage of partying, revelry, etc. for ALL AGES equally.....
...... while Politicians and the gutless cowards known as the Anti-Illicit-only Drug groups rake in the money from Drug Empires that now state, 'Buy my 400 products'', without having the balls to state, "Buy my 400 ethanol drug form products, from my many thousands of drug dealers, drug pushers and drug advocates.
And in the name of ''Every Political Party must serve the alcohol drug empires", these servants watch as ethanol/ alcohol drug abusers beat the shit out of their Country and its Citizens, while our Politicians etc. do what their Masters tell them and have yet another gutless and cowardly 'Excessive Drinking Campaign', ''Drink driving Campaigns'', ''Watch Your Mate Campaigns'', ''Don't Let Your Night Out Turn Into A Nightmare Campaign''.....
.......all while calling Australia's official Drug of the glassings/ bashings/ domestic violence/ child abuse/ verbal and physical assault etc. Nightmare, a Drink!
Then, let us not forget the "Stop ethanol drug abusers bashing Police who babysit them Campaign'' --- deludedly called ''The Last Drinks Campaign'' etc. etc. and so forth.
One of these days these cowards, who walk our Corridors of Power, will finally find the balls to state,
.....''It's not the choice that's the problem - it's the ABUSE! And, we would have admitted this years ago if we weren't all hard-core abusers and abuse tolerators ourselves. (Signed: All your Australian Politicians, all Australian Police and Law Enforcement, all Medical Groups, all Australian Media, and all the rest of the collectives that now declare No Tolerance/ Zero tolerance on so-called 'illicits', while allowing Universal Tolerance on the abuse of their own drugs, even to the extent where our streets and homes are now filled with violence, broken glass, blood and vomit.
And we vote for these abuse tolerators/ those who commit scape-goat abuse on others while excusing their own abusive practices? The question is Why? And the question should be asked, ''Why do Australian Collectives/ groups tolerate abuse while they wage Civil and World Drug War against selective drug use, drug choice, drug belief, drug tradition and drug culture?
It sickens me when those who agree with attacking others for drug choice come to my Country, join with a bunch of legal drug users, abusers and addicts and rock up to a family home (with the Media in tow) under the statement, "I bought the TEQUILA!" (Oprah's statement), which actually means.......
...... "I've brought an ethanol drug form that comes from a country (Mexico) that murders people for drugs, sets up drug empires that behead thousands of others a year, while countless thousands of others are raped, tortured, abused, violated and go missing, thanks to a bunch of legal druggies declaring War on Drugs while trafficking their drugs across the World, and wielding those in Power and those in positions of prestige and influence to do it!''

East 42nd Street, Midtown Manhattan
The Chrysler Building, a stunning statement in the Art Deco style by architect William Van Alen, embodies the romantic essence of the New York City skyscraper. Built in 1928-30 for Walter P. Chrysler of the Chrysler Corporation, it was "dedicated to world commerce and industry."- The tallest building in the world when completed in 1930, it stood proudly on the New York skyline as a personal symbol of Walter Chrysler and the strength of his corporation.
History of Construction
The Chrysler Building had its beginnings in an office building project for William H. Reynolds, a real-estate developer and promoter and former New York State senator. Reynolds had acquired a long-term lease in 1921 on a parcel of property at Lexington Avenue and 42nd Street owned by the Cooper Union tor the Advancement of Science and Art. In 1927 architect William Van Alen was hired to design an office tower to be called the Reynolds Building for the site. Publicized as embodying new principles in skyscraper design,*' the projected building was to be 67 stories high rising 808 feet, and it was "to be surmounted by a glass dome, which when lighted from within, will give the effect of a great jewelled sphere."-' In October, 1928, however, the office building project and the lease on the site were taken over by Walter P. Chrysler, head of the Chrysler Corporation, who was seeking to expand his interests into the real estate field.
Walter Percy Chrysler (1875-1940), one of America's foremost automobile manufacturers, was a self-made man who worked his way up through the mechanical an; manufacturing aspects of the railroad business before joining the Buick Motor Company as works manager in 1912. Because of his success in introducing new processes and efficiencies into the automobile plant, he rose quickly through the administrative ranks of General Motors (which had absorbed Buick) before personality conflicts with William C. Durant, head of General Motors, forced Chrysler to leave. In 1921 he reorganized Willys-Overland Company, and then took over as chairman of the reorganization and management committee of the Maxwell Motor Company, eventually assuming the presidency. This enabled Chrysler to introduce in 1924 the car bearing his name which presented such innovations as four-wheel hydraulic brakes and high compression motor.
Over 50 million dollars worth of cars were sold the first year, and in 1925, the Maxwell Motor Company became the Chrysler Corporation, Dodge Brothers was acquired in 1928 giving the Chrysler Corporation additional manufacturing facilities, a famous line of cars, and putting it in a position to challenge the leadership of Ford and General Motor By 1935, when Chrysler retired from the presidency of the Chrysler Corporation to become chairman of the board, the company was second in the automobile industry ir. volume of production.
It was while Chrysler was aggressively expanding his corporation in 1928 that he took over the office building project from Reynolds. In his autobiography, Chrysler said that he had the building constructed so that his sons would have something to be responsible for. He could not have been unaware, however, that the building would become a personal symbol and further the image of the Chrysler Corporation — even though no corporate funds were used in its financing or construction. To that end Chrysler worked with architect William Van Alen to make the building a powerful and striking design.
William Van Alen (1882-1954) studied at Pratt Institute before beginning his architectural career in the office or Clarence True, a speculative builder. Severs! years later while continuing his studies at the Beaux-Arts Institute 01 Design in the atelier of Donn Barber, Van Alen entered the office of Clinton * Russell as a designer. In 1908 he won the Paris Prize of the Beaux-Arts Institute and entered the Ecole des Beaux-Arts and the Atelier lLaloux. According to architect Francis S. Swales, "
His work at the Ecole indicated that the training was providing him with the mental freedom necessary to think independently, instead of merely the usual school -cargo of elements of architecture and a technique or competition by rules."0 Returning to New York in 1912 he introduced the concept of "garden11 apartments and also designed the Albemarle Building, a skyscraper without cornices. In the 1920s he became known for his innovative shop-front designs and for a series of restaurants for the Child's chain. With the Chrysler Building, Van Alen was able to apply modern principles of design to the skyscraper but at the same time created such a striking image that critic Kenneth Murchison dubbed him "the Ziegfield of his profession.
'In the 1930s he pioneered in prefabricated housing designs although they were never widely produced. Van Alen served for four years in the 1940s as director of sculpture for the Beaux-Arts Institute of Design, and he was a member of the American Institute of Architects and the National Academy of Design.
Work began on the Chrysler Building on October 15, 1928, when Chrysler acquire the lease, with clearance of the site. Construction proceeded rapidly; foundations to a depth of 69 feet were completed early in 1929, and the steel framework was completed by the end of September of that year.
The design of the building, however, was altered from that for Reynolds. Chrysler, in his autobiography, credits himself for suggesting that it be taller than the 1000-foot Eiffel Tower. The design of the crowning dome was also changed, and the addition of a spire, which the architect called a "vertex," made the Chrysler at 1046 feet the tallest building in the world at the time. Kenneth Murchison fancifully depicts Chrysler urging Van Alen to win the race to construct the world's tallest building.
Van Alen himself had personal reasons for achieving this goal, as a former partner, ii. Craig Severance, was constructing the Bank of Manhattan, 40 Wall Street, at the same time with the aim of making it the world's tallest skyscraper. Thinking that the Chrysler Building would be only 925 feet high, Severance added a 50-foot flagpole to his building making it 927 feet. Meanwhile, Van Alen designed the 185-foot spire which would make the Chrysler Building the tallest. The spire was fabricated, then delivered to the building in five sections, and assembled secret at the 65th floor.
In November, 1929, it was finally raised into position by a 20-ton derrick through a fire tower in the center of the building, then riveted i place, the whole operation taking about 90 minutes. This engineering feat capture the popular imagination as well as that of professionals, and it helped to further the progressive image of the Chrysler Building. However, the Chrysler lost its height distinction two years later with the construction of the Empire State Building.
The first tenants moved into the Chrysler Building in April, 1930, even though construction was not completed. Formal opening ceremonies were held on May 27, 1930 in conjunction with the annual meeting of the 42nd Street Property Owners and Merchants Association. A bronze tablet was placed in the lobby of the building "in recongnition of Mr. Chrysler's contribution to civic advancement." The building was considered finished in August, 1930, but curiously, the completion date recorded in the records of the Manhattan Building Department is February 19, 1932.
The Chrysler Building and Art Deco
Waiter P. Chrysler wanted a progressive image and a personal symbol. Van Alen strove* to create such an image using the tenets of modernism as he interpreted them. In so doing he designed a building which has come to be regarded as one of the outstanding examples of Art Deco architecture.
The term. Art Deco, which is also referred to by several different names such as the Style Moderne and Modernistic, is adopted from the Exposition International: des Arts Decoratifs et Industrie]s Modernes--an important European influence or. the American Art Deco sty!e--held in Paris in 1925.
In the period following the first World War, architects in Europe and the united States had begun to simplify traditional design forms and to use -industrial materials in innovative ways in order to characterize the modern age.
The Art Deco style seemed to lend itself particularly well to skyscraper design because the skyscraper, more than any other building type, epitomized progress, innovation, and a new modern age. Although the Art Deco style was short-lived, it coincided with a great building boom at the end of the 1920s in New York. The many-skyscrapers which were erected in the Art Deco style gave New York and its skyline a characteristic and romantic image, popularized in theater and films, which persisted until the next great building boom of the early 1960s. In the Chrysler Building, Van Alen used a variety of materials, techniques, and design forms which are characteristic of Art Deco.
The Chrysler Building rises 77 stories in a series of setbacks which accord with the regulations of the 1916 New York zoning prdinance. As a freestanding tower occupying about half a block, the building is visible from four sides. Like many Art Deco architects. Van Alen believed strongly in designing steel structures so that they would not be imitative of masonry construction.'- Also unlike many earlier skyscrapers, the design of the Chrysler did not follow the formula of a column with ornamental base, bare shaft, and ornamental capital; rather the design was to be of interest throughout the entire height.13 Both the great height of the building and the mandated setbacks aided Van Alen in making this design decision,
The first four stories of the building cover the entire site arid are faced with polished black Shastone granite at the first story and white Georgian marble above. The most striking features of this portion of the building are the two entrances, on Lexington Avenue and 42nd Street. Each entrance rises for h height of three stories in proscenium fashion and is enframed by Shastone granite. Set back within the deep reveals of the entrances are sets of revolving doors beneath intricately patterned metal and glass screens.
The treatment is such as to heighten the dramatic effect of entering the building --a concern of Art Deco design There is a one-story entrance on 43rd Street. Also at first story level are iarge show windows for shops, framed in metal. Windows for offices may be seen at the second, third, and fourth stories. Ornamental spandrels are set at the bases of the second story windows. The exposed metal frames of the entries and windows art of "Nirosta" steel, a kind of rust-resistant, chromium nickel steel, manufactured for the first time in the United States specifically for the Chrysler Building according to a German formula from Krupp. This use of a new. material is in keeping with Art Deco principles.
Above the fourth story, the building is penetrated on the east and west sides by light courts extending to the face of the tower, while on the north and south the structure gradually rises in a series of setbacks. The facing of the walls through the first setback at the sixteenth story is of white brick with contrast! white marble strips creating a basketweave pattern. The use of a variety of colo and textures is characteristic of Art Deco. Windows are set in a regular grid pattern. An. unusual feature of all windows in the building is that they have no reveals; frames are set flush with the walls. This was seen is another means of indicating modernity and progress.
In the next setback, ending at the twenty-fourth floor, there is a vertical emphasis with piers of white brick alternating with vertical window strips. Aluminum spandrels between the windows aid this effect. Spandrels at the twentieth twenty-first, and twenty-second floors are adorned with polished abstract relief ornament. At the corners of the twenty-fourth floor are placed conventionalized pineapples, about nine feet high, of "Nirosta" steel, which had been fabricated < the site.
The next three stories, through the twenty-seventh, form the third setback. Horizontal banding and zigzag motifs in gray and black brick contrast with the verticality of the setback below. The fourth setback, to the thirty-first story marks the emergence of the tower shaft from the lower masses. At the thirty-first floor the corners of the building are extended outward and crowned by huge ornamental Chrysler radiator caps in "Nirosta" steel, spanning about 15 feet.
The- extension was necessary to overcome the optical effect that would otherwise make the tower appear wider at the top than at the base. Also at this floor is a frieze ir. gra; and white brick of stylized racing automobiles with polished steel hub caps. Th ornamental features are overt symbols of the Chrysler Corporation and characteristic of the types of effects created by Art Deco architects.
The building had a number of innovative and desirable features. THe soundproofed office partitions were of steel made in interchangeable sections so that arranges! of any office suite could be changed quickly and conveniently. Under-floor duct systems carried wiring for telephone and electric outlets.
The elevators, specifically at Chrysler's instruction, were capable of speeds of 1000 feet per minute although city codes in effect in 1930 only allowed 700 feet per minute. The building also had three of the longest continuous elevator shafts in the world To enhance public access to the building, an underground arcade led to the IRT subway system. The connection was strongly opposed by the IRT, but Chrysler prevailed and the passageway was built at his expense. In the dome was the private-Cloud Club, which still exists, and, in the very topmost floor, a public observation deck.
On display was Walter P. Chrysler's box of handmade tools, the emblem of his enterprise and personal success. The observatory has been closed for many years.
Conclusion
Critics such as Lewis Mumford who favored the International Style denigrated the Chrysler Building for its "inane romanticism,... meaningless voluptuousness, ... /and/ void symbolism," " but it was these qualities which captured the popular imagination and helped make it one of the most famous buildings in New York. We can appreciate the comments of the editor of Architectural Porum who wrote:
It stands by itself, something apart and alone. It is simply the realization, the fulfillment in metal and masonry, of a one-man dream, a dream of such ambition and such magnitude as to defy the comprehension and the criticism of ordinary men or by ordinary standards.
The Chrysler Building still stands proudly in the New York skyline, its gleaming spire and soaring tower capturing the eye and imagination of the viewer. While it may no longer symbolize the Chrysler Corporation, it still embodies the romantic essence of the Art Deco skyscraper in New York City, with its dramatic effects, elegant materials, and vivid ornamental details. Built as a monument to progress in commerce and industry, it remains as one of New York's finest office buildings and great examples of the Art Deco style.

Is this little guy making a fashion statement or is he preparing for cold weather? :)
I hadn't seen this one before. It looks like a jumping spider with a shell on it's back. Any arachnologists out there?
To give you a sense of his size, he's about half the width of the blade of grass he's sitting on.
