1908 postmarked postcard view of the Warrick County Courthouse in Boonville, Indiana. The courthouse square was bounded by Main Street on the north, Third Street on the east, Locust Street on the south and Second Street on the west. The photographer was standing near the intersection at Third and Locust streets and facing northwest. The image on the postcard is not sharp enough to read any business signs in the scene.
According to the 1907 Sanborn™ fire insurance map set for Boonville, the three-story building at the left edge of this scene was occupied by a furniture business. This and the two buildings to the south were still in use as of 2012. The Mathewson Opera House was on the northwest corner of Locust and Second Streets, just outside this scene to the left. It is no longer there.
The three-story building on the right was about 100 feet west of the intersection at Main and Third streets. A saloon was operating in the building when the 1907 map set was published. Next door to the west, another saloon and a barbershop occupied the first floor of that building while the Becker Hotel occupied the second floor. Those buildings and the others east to Third Street have been replaced.

Until 1814, most of Vanderburgh County and Evansville were part of Warrick County. Initially, Evansville was the designated county seat, but Darlington soon replaced Evansville and was the county seat until 1818. It wasn’t until 1818 that the county seat was moved to Boonville. This structure is the sixth Warrick County Courthouse and the fifth in Boonville. It has been in use from 1904 to the present.
Details: Castle style architecture; part of the Boonville Public Square Historic Place
Cost: $75,000
Architects: William J. Harris and Clifford Shopbell
The style of the 1904 courthouse is unique to Indiana, but similar examples exist in other states all built in the same time period. The courthouse no longer contains any active courtrooms. Warrick as well as several other counties in Indiana have moved the courts to a ‘Judicial Center’ but continue to use their classic courthouse for county offices.

This is the first major sign that greets drivers as they arrive in Washington, DC via the Teddy Roosevelt Bridge.
The first three options lead into that famously tangled mess of highways southeast of the Kennedy Center. The signs themselves could be simplified: first, let's use a consistent font. The two EASTs are clearly different. I would also center them with the numbers in the highway symbols (66 and 50). I would consistently abbreviate Avenue - you see they use Ave with Constitution but spell it out with Independence. I'd always use Ave and keep it on the same line as Independence. Next, there's no need to indicate Downtown under 50 EAST - I'd consider E Street to be closer to downtown anyways.
That boxy truck on the left is used to move the concrete barriers two times every work day. They switch the direction of the middle lane since the traffic flow is lopsided, with more cars driving into the city in the morning and then flocking into Virginia at night. It would be interesting to see whether patterns have normalized as DC experiences a housing boom and Virginia experiences a jobs boom.

Tucson Juggles Traffic, Utilities and History to Flip Interchange Grade
southwest.construction.com/southwest_construction_project...
By Scott Blair
03/27/2012
A major interchange is undergoing a role reversal in Arizona's second-largest metropolitan area. Designed to solve traffic headaches and a dire safety problem, the Interstate-10, Prince to Ruthrauff roads project in Tucson is "flipping" the grade of Prince Road so that it will pass over, instead of under, I-10.
The revamp is part of a $76.4-million effort to widen I-10 along a two-mile stretch to eight lanes from six. Crews have to contend with six lanes of traffic at all times, a major railroad route and multiple utilities—all while keeping an eye out for potential archaeological finds.
Utilitarian
Since last fall, nearly all of the project's first 180 days have been devoted to relocating 15 separate utility lines that criss-cross the construction zone. Utilities include high-pressure petroleum and gas lines, sewer and water lines, electric power and telecommunications. "It was basically an underground utility interchange," says Jody Rodriguez, utility coordinator with the Tucson office of URS, a design subconsultant.
Crews relocated 72-in.-dia and 78-in.-dia sewer lines with flows of around 22 million gallons per day. The contractor advanced four jack-and-bore operations, including a 450-ft-long, 60-in.-dia casing under I-10 to reroute sewer flow.
As is typical, crews found utility lines that didn't match the positions indicated on the as-builts. Surprisingly, some of the existing joint trenches were encased in concrete and had to be carefully demolished—in one case, while avoiding damage to a major electrical line, says Edie Griffith-Mettey, senior project manager in the Tucson office of prime consultant AECOM.
Nevertheless, "we've been able to accomplish most all the relocations at this point without a delay to the overall project," says Todd Emery, district engineer with the Arizona Dept. of Transportation.
Besides allowing for better access and maintenance, designers had to figure out a way to protect the utilities from the weight of huge embankments and retaining walls required to elevate Prince Road. Thus, they corralled the utilities into a single utility corridor spanned by a 135-ft-long bridge. "Initially, we were going to put in a protection slab. But when we started doing the cost analysis, it was just as expensive to build a bridge," Rodriguez says.
Flipping Out
A 223-ft-long bridge is being constructed to carry Prince Road over I-10, and a third bridge will take the road over a Union Pacific Railroad track. The existing configuration crosses the railroad at grade, which has led to significant traffic snarls and accidents, Emery says. Forty to 60 trains use the line a day, but this could double due to a planned Union Pacific expansion.
Phoenix-based Pulice Construction is building cast-in-place concrete bridges, removing earth embankments currently elevating I-10 over Prince Road and constructing temporary detours to divert all traffic in phase one to one side of I-10, says Aaron Insco, Pulice project manager. To maintain three lanes of traffic in each direction at all times, all westbound traffic will be diverted to an existing two-lane frontage road that will be reconfigured into three lanes. Eastbound I-10 will detour onto the westbound I-10 lanes. After crews build half the bridges and reconstruct the freeway and eastbound frontage road, all traffic will shift to the east side as crews construct the other half of the project. Prince Road will be shut down for the duration of the project.
Most of the excavation from the I-10 embankments will be re-used to elevate the frontage roads that will tie into the top of Prince Road, but some 180,000 cu yd will be hauled away. Soft soil conditions have required nearly 400 drilled shafts as deep as 70 ft and 5 ft in diameter to support bridges and 30-ft-high retaining walls. Approximately 75,000 cu yd of concrete will be used on the project, excluding precast concrete being used for the bridge girders.
Past Presents
As crews slice away the embankments that used to elevate I-10, they will confront undisturbed earth that could contain archaeological artifacts—in fact, some artifacts already have been found during utility construction, Emery says. Construction activities will occur in two steps, pausing once crews reach virgin earth so that the archaeological team can survey and catalog the area. Meanwhile, Pulice will continue work in a pre-cleared area.
The project team also is looking out for the living. Because the area sees a lot of pedestrian activity that will be disrupted for the two-year-plus construction cycle, ADOT has set up a shuttle service to bring employees of nearby businesses to and from work on each side of the freeway. "This is the first time we've done that," Emery says. "There are a lot of firsts for us on this project."
Depending on how smoothly this project proceeds, ADOT is looking at performing a similar grade flip at the Ruthrauff Road interchange to the north. That project could go out to bid sometime after summer 2014. A year after that, Emery says they hope to reconfigure the Ina Road and I-10 interchange. “This is our test run,” he says. ”By the time we get to Ina, we should be really good at it.”

Hey, Goran, I made this with you and copper in mind. (In my mind, there was a lot of verdigris, but that's kind of status quo.)
nrhp # 95001407- The sixty-three room Hotel Love was constructed in 1895 and opened for business in March of 1896. One of the finest hotel in the Chickasaw Nation Hotel Love, "The Pride of Purcell ... the building was superior to anything of its kind in the Indian Territory." In 1900 Hotel Love was a brick building three stories high and combines all the modern conveniences of an up-to-date hotel ..." It had steam heat, electric lights, and rooms were $2 a night. It was once a favorite place for newlyweds to spend their honeymoon.Of the many hotels constructed in Purcell between 1887 and 1901, only the Hotel Love is in existence today. The Hotel Love was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1995.In 1982 the building was purchase by Jerry and Elaine Butler, who put in anAnitque Shop,upstairs more than a dozen rooms have been filled with various antiques and collectibles.

Anton Corbijn's (@antoncorbijn4real) favourite spot in London? As a long-time fan, that famous grainy Ian Curtis postcard glued to my teenager wall, I had to check it out. And had to laugh: despite all those shiny London photo spots Corbijn chose Three Colts Corner when asked by the @szmagazin in February: "...a railway crossing close to the lively Brick Lane. But now that London became so fancy I like this place more than ever: that charm of brick, graffiti and dog shit."

Did I drop three strawberries?
Actually no, there is only one strawberry, and one drop. In addition, aside from some colour correction, there is no Photoshop manipulation.
So how is this done? It is a multiple exposure using a highspeed strobe.
I used the Canon 580EX's "Multi" mode to fire 3 flashes with a 15Hz frequency. This exposed the strawberry at a few different points in the drop. Since the glass is stationary, and the water is mostly clear, you get this effect.
Strobist/setup:
One Canon 580EX II, camera right and about 25 degrees from plane of the subject. Zoomed to 50mm and flagged to prevent bleeding onto the background (which is actually a white wall). Set to "Multi" mode 3 exposures with 15Hz frequency.
Image was taken with an intervalometer in bulb mode to hold the shutter open. Then with one hand I dropped the strawberry and with the other triggered the flash using a Cactus v5 radio trigger.
Hello all. I know I haven't posted anything for quite a long time, so I thought I'd keep everyone interested with a shot I took whilst on a day out with family. It's nothing special, but I liked the contrast and the impending rain clouds in the sky.
I took a lot of photographs of my granddad the past week, however those are going in my personal portfolio as they are special to me - so I will not be uploading these unfortunately. Hopefully I will have more shots to upload soon though , so watch this space.
Tobacco is a dirty weed. I like it.
It satisfies no normal need. I like it.
It makes you thin, it makes you lean,
It takes the hair right off your bean
It's the worst darn stuff I've ever seen.
I like it.

Rahner not only explained critically and precisely what the Christian faith is, but he also sought to unite people with it. To Rahner, theology is more than faith seeking understanding; it is as well a mystagogy that gives the people of God experiential union with the faith by leading them into their own deepest mystery. Thus, he was more a “sapiential” than an “academic” theologian.
