The Theory clothing store on Gansevoort St in the former Meatpacking district of Manhattan. The Theory brand has 221 stores worldwide with global sales reaching $1 billion in 2014.I believe this building is the retailer's headquarters.What's interesting here is that besides the juxtaposition in style,the buildings are relatively the same height.Newer structures have to stay within landmark height limit requirements and zoning codes.
Whenever I see the beauty of our landscapes it makes me realise that nothing mankind can do matches the splendour and might of nature. What a pity more of our politicians don't appreciate this.

Crazy conspiracy theories linked to 5G mast...
5G Mast spread the coronavirus
5G Mast are a cover-up for depopulation
5G Mast are used to monitor us
5G Mast spread radiation
But even more absurd than any of those...
5G Mast are also a home for Kestrel Chicks!
Haha., that last one really made me laugh!
Surely can't be true!!
Can it?
The alpha and the omega. Physicists have been working to develop the "holy grail" therory that mathematically explains the behavior of the universe from the very small - quantum level particles, to the massively large - galaxies, black holes and dark matter. String theory has moved the thinking beyond just the newtonian (large) and quantum (small) prior successes but there are still large gaps in their understanding and mathematical underpinnings have been elusive. Submittal for the October 19, 2020 Macro Monday’s theme of “String”.

Ljubljana is the capital and largest city of Slovenia, located along a trade route between the northern Adriatic Sea and the Danube region, north of the country's largest marsh, inhabited since prehistoric times. It is the country's cultural, educational, economic, political and administrative center.
The exact origin of the name Ljubljana is unclear. In medieval times, both the river and the town were also called Laibach in German. This name was used within the region until 1918 and continues to be used in German. In Italian, the city is referred to as Lubiana, and in Latin, it is known as Labacum.
The German name was first documented in 1144, and the Slovenian form appeared in records as early as 1146. The 10th-century work "Life of Gregentios" provides the Greek variant Λυπλιανές (Lyplianes) and situates it among the Avars in the 6th century. This account is influenced by an earlier northern Italian source written shortly after the conquest of 774.
The connection between the Slovene and German names has posed a puzzle for scholars. In 2007, linguist Tijmen Pronk, an authority in comparative Indo-European linguistics and Slovene dialectology from the University of Leiden, provided strong support for the theory that the Slavic ljub- meaning "to love, like" was the most likely origin. He argued that the river's name likely stemmed from the settlement's name. Silvo Torkar, a linguist with expertise in Slovene names, put forth the idea that Ljubljana's name has its roots in "Ljubija", the original name of the Ljubljanica River. This can be traced back to the Old Slavic male name "Ljubovid", which translates to "the one with a lovely appearance". Torkar also asserted that the name "Laibach" is a combination of German and Slovene, sharing its origins with the same personal name.
Prešeren Square (Slovene: Prešernov trg) is the central square in Ljubljana. It is part of the old town's pedestrian zone and a major meeting point where festivals (like the annual Ljubljana Dragon Carnival), concerts, sports, political events, and protests take place. It was redesigned according to plans by Edvard Ravnikar from a funnel-shaped to a circular form in 1987–88 and renovated in 2007.
The Triple Bridge (Slovene: Tromostovje, in older sources also Tromostje) comprises three bridges spanning the Ljubljanica River. It connects the historical medieval town on the southeastern bank with the central Prešeren Square on the northwestern bank. Dating back to the 13th century, it stands as the oldest bridge in Ljubljana. In the early 1930s, the architect Jože Plečnik redesigned and expanded it. In August 2021, the Triple Bridge was added to the UNESCO World Heritage List as part of Plečnik's enduring legacy.

...and so it is with you...
I've never said you'll have to
be afraid
of the cookie monster
beside your bed
It's not the real
The real one's in your head
Beyond control
The true one cuts you dead
It's a war
Found a ribbon on a polished granite or marble block and shot it. Thought it looked kinda cool.

So many questions
And the answers come back unanswered
Let's hold the old script
It's a new twist
You can feel the air
Rush out, out from the center
Not like one side is any better
Stand up as they bend, reaching
My best theory?
It's already in me
In a lonely, real place
Neither part nor mistake
Love what you have with your time
By dousing, find my true desire
My threat, my appetite
Taken At Sunnys!
It started snowing at Theory and the lake's all frozen over now. While you're there shopping or just peeking in, have a look around the sim and enjoy the scenery.

Big ups to a fellow Canuk, Theory. Been in the game for many a moon and on a comeback as of late, producing some of my favourite themed whole cars to date. A benchers delight and one of the kings of the hoppers. Here is a couple of my favs....

The string theory I put out a few days ago I played with it to get more jumping into the hyperwarp drive. Saturation can come in the dark side of the spectrum too.
This part of Bodmin Moor, near Minions, a few miles north of Liskeard, has the remains of three neolithic stone circles known as The Hurlers, as well as several individual standing stones such as the one pictured. They are thought to date from around 1500 BC. Although there have been many theories, no-one knows for certain what their purpose was.
Tin and copper mining took place throughout this area until early in the 20th century, and many of the engine houses and other remains can still be seen. The engine house in the distance housed a 50-inch pumping engine, installed in the 1880s. The mine shaft it served reached 720 feet and was part of the South Phoenix Mine. The engine house is now a visitor centre.
I watched this adult Horned Grebe seek out a feather floating on the water, pick it up in its beak and fiddle with it a bit, and then swallow it. There are a number of theories about this behaviour...
.... sometimes you have to wait, and then you have all the colors together :-) It's the famous colorful fishermen's houses of Smögen, and yes, it's worth being there.
In theory I should be just about able to see my house in the background. We live 28 km down through the V of the mountainsides at the other end of Loch Shiel. It's nearly 400 ft deep in places, and it pretty much always looks beautiful: especially when in Autumn the mist slips down off the mountains and slides across the still morning waters.
Kudos to the birders who figure out who these drifters are and then take the trouble to help other birders find them.
This guy was way off his patch.
"While today’s vagrant might be tomorrow’s model citizen, destined to become a colonizer and perhaps an established resident, as Grinnell (1922) asserted, most vagrants might be viewed as “failed colonization attempts”. Newton (2008: 267–299) summarized quite well the various explanations of the causes of vagrancy put forward over the past century or so. They include: normal dispersal over long distances, population growth or expansion, drift by winds, migration overshoots, deviant directional tendencies (right time but wrong direction), mirror-image migration, and reversed direction migration. While all explanations probably play a role and explain the occurrence of some vagrant individuals, we address the latter three explanations as they likely involve the vast majority of landbirds. The mirror-image misorientation theory, originally developed by DeSante (1973), and described by Diamond (1982), proposed that vagrants are misoriented by confusion of right and left in relating an inherited migration direction to a compass reference direction. Mirror-image misorientation theory accounts for observations made by DeSante (1983a) that in certain situations large-angle misorientations seem more frequent than small or intermediate deviations from the normal migration course (Alerstam, 1990). Misorientation by the wind has long been suggested as a cause of accidentals (Austin, 1971), but Thorup et al. (2012) found differently, as the authors used radio telemetry to track individual migratory flights of several species of songbirds from the Faroe Islands, approximately halfway between Norway and Iceland, far west of their normal migration route. Birds with expected easterly and south-easterly migration direction departed westward out over the Atlantic Ocean, indicating that these birds are actively flying in the “wrong” direction and that their occurrence is not caused by wind drift. However, on Attu Island, in the Aleutian Islands off Alaska, Hameed et al. (2009) found statistical evidence that the occurrence of spring Asian vagrants on this North Pacific island were correlated with storm winds from the west."

I’ve had the front of the build sitting around since March of last year. I picked at it here and there, building on and off until Nov, and then it just sat
And sat.
And sat…
It glared at me from the shelf, accumulating layers of dust, bitter for its neglect. Finally, last week, I finished the build and then I made a stand just today. It is nice to have this done and be able to share it, and free myself from its watchful eye.
Enjoy!
