my first love has always been ice hockey but there is no other sport like f1, because the current state of the teams is:

ferrari: we have a car and it may not be fast but it sure is red and we will hope for another miracle coming from charles and maybe light up a candle for him and fall on our knees around sf-24. oh and carlos is there. for a few more races.

red bull: hopefully max keeps it on track, GP survives another round of couples therapy and checo won't crash in q1 to bring chances of constructor's title and future upgrades from big fat zero to negative

mercedes: let's pray lewis' balls won't get boiled from the hot seat by the time this race weekend is over because he in fact doesn't have his sperm in a cup in a freezer next to roscoe's

mclaren: the universally fastest car capable of beating anyone by 30 seconds, another upgrade package on the way with updated floor on the way, best quali AND race pace, 100% backing of lando, now with oscar's help too + mika stroking the crystal ball trying to predict abu dhabi 2024 winner

stake: budget for tiktok videos so big we couldn't afford another working wheel gun but who needs it when you can get more screentime for your drivers with a 10 seconds long pit from p19 being lapped twice, right?

alpine: maybe if we fire everyone, the sweet lady from canteen will run the team better, and if not, there is always an option to hire an italian mafioso to sell the team and send the angry viry staff his way

williams: breaking news, james vowles is on grindr looking for another underexperienced twink with interesting sponsorship to wine and dine and then slip into the seat to fill in the gap he created himself by firing the previous prospect

vcarb: junior team for energy drink company that gets left over from said mothership and is meant to bring in new talents but rather serves as a speaking platform for weird australian bisexual, also their floor will fail massively and yuki never gets to finish monza properly under them

haas: dad for dad, 2 blondies enjoying quality time together, workplace relationship, sneaking out behind motorhomes, oral fixation, money heist, russian mafia

aston martin: rule number one, if money didn't fix the team, you didn't use enough money

Desert Lodge Spa

Lot Type (Spa)

The Desert Lodge Spa is a luxurious spa for all sims who just need a little time to destress and feel pampered to the nines. Inspired by the Al Faya Retreat in the United Arab Emirates, this beautiful architectural structure sits in the desolate sand dunes of Abu Dhabi. I wanted to capture the organic modern style of interior design paired with a minimal and angular architectural design. The CC I used really pushed forward the vision for this build. Overall this build consists of two master suites which each come with an office space and a bathroom suite, for single, couple or even throuple sims. The spa is complete with a meditation room and two message rooms as well as a lap pool and a hot springs bath. Its a luxurious spa situated preferably on Oasis Springs 50x50 lot once a community park.

Packs Used:

EP: Snowy Escape | Eco-Lifestyle | Island Living | Cats and Dogs | City Living | Get Together | Get to Work

GP: Journey to Batuu | Strangerville | Jungle Adventure | Dine Out | Spa Day | Outdoor Retreat

SP: Laundry Day

Disclaimer most items used from the packs are 1 to 5 items tops each. Most important packs are Spa Day of course, Snowy Escape for the Hot Spring Bath, Eco Lifestyle for the main door and the floors. Island Living for the glass roof windows. Strangerville for the debug/ live edit plants. The rest are small cosmetic additions but for the most part this is a CC build using amazing CC items.

110 North Wacker Drive

Architects: Goettsch Partners, Inc.

Location: Chicago, Illinois, USA

The Howard Hughes Corporation® (NYSE: HHC) and Riverside Investment & Development announced today the opening of the trophy-class office tower at 110 North Wacker Drive. The announcement marks the culmination of the highly-anticipated 55-story downtown riverfront building, which is a collaboration with the award-winning leasing, design and construction team of CBRE, Goettsch Partners and Clark Construction.

“Three years ago, we set out to create a world-class office building like 110 North Wacker Drive, and we are proud today to showcase this exceptional trophy-class property located in the heart of downtown Chicago,” said David R. O’Reilly, Interim Chief Executive Officer; President and CFO of The Howard Hughes Corporation. “From the onset of this project, we aimed to infuse insights and best practices from our various master planned developments across the country with local market expertise from some of the industry’s leading and award-winning developers and designers. Through our collaboration with Riverside Investment & Development and Goettsch Partners, we’ve delivered on our vision to add to the iconic Chicago skyline with a building located on a historic site that incorporates the best of every aspect of the tenant experience, including health and wellness elements that people are demanding today.”

Situated along the Chicago River, 110 North Wacker Drive is both the city’s tallest office building and the second-largest office building to be delivered in three decades, totaling 55 stories and more than 1.5 million rentable square feet. The state-of-the-art Class A office tower’s distinctive form accentuates its verticality and extensive integration of open space throughout the building, beginning at ground level with an expansive 45-foot-wide riverwalk. The landscaped, covered riverfront promenade connects two important downtown pedestrian paths and a small park at the north and maintains an effectively unobstructed river view, offering roughly 22,000 square feet of combined public space.

Additionally, the tower’s 45-foot-high lobby is enclosed by a cable-supported glass wall, and sculpted, folded-limestone cladding covers the elevator cores. The transparency of the low-iron glass wall virtually eliminates the distinction between interior and exterior space, with the lobby and streetscape becoming one. The unique sawtooth design of the west- and river-facing geometry of the building enhances the trapezoidal shape of the site to present 14 corner opportunities per floor and extraordinary views up and down the Chicago River.

“The best high-rise buildings successfully manage the marriage of commerce and culture,” said James Goettsch, Chairman and Co-Chief Executive Officer of Goettsch Partners. “Given its unique site along the iconic Chicago River, my hope is that 110 North Wacker Drive will be looked upon as a building that is both a successful commercial endeavor, as well as a development that enhances the public realm and continues Chicago’s tradition of innovative architecture.”

The building features extensive high-technology infrastructure designed to maximize overall health and wellness throughout. This includes best-in-class HVAC systems; the most advanced destination dispatch elevators in Chicago; and a multi-faceted, custom building app that provides touchless building access, transportation information, event listings and a portal to book any fitness and spa activity, among other health and safety measures. Several enhancements have been added to address COVID pandemic concerns, including advanced secondary air filtration systems, more air changes per hour than most office buildings, social-distancing limitations on elevators, and touchless access in many conditions.

“110 North Wacker Drive is one of the most sought-after development locations in Chicago for decades,” said John O’Donnell, Chief Executive Officer of Riverside Investment and Development. “It has been a privilege to work alongside the development team of The Howard Hughes Corporation, as well as once again partnering with Goettsch Partners to collectively deliver a high-rise that will leave its mark on the Chicago skyline for years to come.”

Since the beginning, 110 North Wacker Drive, with its desirable location, high-quality mix of state-ofthe- art fitness facilities, concierge program, event spaces and other amenities, along with extensive new dining options by Jose Andres’ ThinkFoodGroup and Chicago’s own Gibsons Restaurant Group, has exhibited exceptional pre-leasing momentum. The combination of Bank of America as the dominant financial institution anchor tenant along with numerous additional sector-leading tenants—including leading real estate investment advisor Heitman, global investment bank Lincoln International, and top-10 Am Law 100 firms Jones Day and Morgan Lewis—has resulted in a strong blend of tenant diversification and stability.

“We are excited to solidify 110 North Wacker Drive’s place in Chicago’s iconic skyline and contribute to the city’s downtown landscape as we begin to welcome businesses, residents and visitors alike to this one-of-a-kind destination,” added O’Reilly.

We take a look at the most gobsmacking crashes of all time Asahi Shimbun via Getty Images 'When a man holds you round the throat, I do not think that he has come to apologise.' Senna Damon Hill vs Michael Schumacher F1 legend Ayrton Senna had just been killed, and it was up to Damon Hill to lead Williams title challenge in 1994. Battling against Michael Schumacher throughout the season, the German and the Brit were both looking to claim their first world championship. Hill clawed his way back into the title race - only for the championship battle to be sealed when Schumacher slammed into him in Adelaide. The two clashed again in 1995, crashing together in Silverstone and Germany. Second-generation star Hill eventually claimed his first world championship in 1996, but that didn't end the feud which rattled on until he retired in 1999. Schumacher's health remains a mystery after a horrific skiing crash left him in a coma in 2013. GETTY GETTY Alain Prost vs Ayrton Senna Arguably the most famous feud in F1 history - and for very good reason. Two of the greatest drivers of all-time both in McLaren guaranteed sparks would fly - ending up with the pair seemingly HATING each other. Senna was the fiery balls-to-the-wall upstart, while Prost was the cold calculating established world champion. Ayrton won their first duel with the world title in 1988, while Prost claimed victory in their second with a controversial crash between the pair deciding the title in 1989. The duo stopped speaking, and the McLaren pit garage became two camps at war. Prost quit McLaren to join Ferrari, and the pair crashed again - deciding the title in Senna's favour - at the Japanese GP in 1990. The Frenchman would refuse to ever partner Senna again, claiming 'Ayrton has a small problem, he thinks he can't kill himself'. F1: the drivers and the STUNNING women who make their engines purr With the 2017 season kicking o
