On August 8th 1984 the Kylesku Bridge officially opened to traffic.
The Kyslesku Bridge in Sutherland on the north-west of Scotland carries the non-trunk A894 across Loch a' Chàirn Bhàin between Unapool and Kylestrome.
The bridge was designed for what was then Highland Regional Council by Ove Arup and Partners. It was, in part, financed by the European Community, and built by Morrison Construction Ltd. The cost was £4 million, rather more than the budgeted £2¾ million, in part due to difficult weather conditions during construction.
The structure replaced a succession of ferries which had crossed between Kyslesk and Kylestrome since the early 19th century. When this ferry was not running, the only alternative was a 100 mile (160 km) detour around the NW Highlands.
Over the years, various ferries came and went, and small car-carrying ferries first appeared between the wars. The Kylesku Ferry was unusual in being free for much of its life. The Maid of Kylesku, a two car ferry, was built for the Kylesku crossing in the early 1950s, where it was operated until replaced by the Queen of Kylesku in 1967.
Check out the video below for a clip of the Queen of Kylesku, and can you imagine bairns being allowed to help like that nowadays!
The Bridge is one of those seminal points of the NC500 and lovers of road trips will appreciate the impressive way of affording us such magnificent views and access. There is a large car park on the North side where you can stop and take in the views.
Pics are of the bridge, of course and two of the ferries that used to sail betwen the points.

Lockheed L-1011 All Nippon Airways
Registration: JA8514 Type: 1011-1 Engines: 3 × RR RB211-22B Serial Number: 1117 First flight: Jun 3, 1975
All Nippon Airways Co., Ltd., is the largest airline in Japan. Its headquarters are located in Shiodome City Center in the Shiodome area of Minato ward of Tokyo. It operates services to both domestic and international destinations. ANA bought its first widebody aircrafts, six Lockheed L-1011s, in November 1971. The aircraft entered service on the Tokyo-Okinawa route in 1974. Initially, the carrier had ordered McDonnell Douglas DC-10s but cancelled the order at the last minute and switched to Lockheed. ANA operated 21 of these jets as the main aircraft for trunk lines and major local routes and also used it on scheduled short-haul international flights from 1986. Known informally as the Tristar, it was retired from service in November 1995.

airsLLides No. 2664 EC-ECS, Boeing 737-375, Air Europa, Salzburg, January 20, 1989.
When established in 1986, Air Europa was the Spanish daughter of the British ILG-Air Europe Group Ltd. which later also formed an Italian subsidiary of the same name. Air Europa's initial corporate design thus also closely matched the British parent's brand, with just the altered last letter of the name and the national flags visibly distinguishing the two.
G-BNPB, Boeing 737-3S3, Air Europe, Salzburg, January 20, 1989.
Almost identical twins, aren't they: G-BNPB flies for parent Air Europe, performing a seasonal inbound charter to the Austrian alps, while its daughter's jet above is about to pick-up local Austrian residents for a break in the warm South of Europe.
The Spanish subsidiary Air Europe initially focussed on the leisure travel market, using a fleet of Boeing 737-300s, later supplemented by the Boeing 757-200 on trunk markets. The British mother however would soon struggling over financial turbulences caused by the entry into the scheduled passenger market, forcing ILG-Air Europe to cease trading in 1991.
The two Mediterranean subsidiaries however escaped the parent's failure and continued trading. While the Italian daughter, since 2000 under the control of former competitor Volare, ultimately also vanished following the new parents failure in 2004 and a fruitless attempt to restart business in 2007/08, the Spanish Air Europa has survived to the present day.
Merger attempts started by IAG International Airline Group that would have led to Air Europa's integration into Spanish flagcarrier Iberia were cancelled twice, and thus Air Europa still trades. However, it is no longer a leisure carrier, but a scheduled airline and member of Star Alliance, serving an extensive intra-European and Latin American network.

The A. & G. Price Ltd Foundry in Thames. January, 2021. This is gonna be a long one, so consider yourself warned.
Directly behind the image is where the East Coast Main Trunk Line (ECMT) connected to the Foundry and allowed for A. & G. Price built locomotives to be attached to the end of an outgoing NZR train.
Many non-Price Locomotives have graced the (long removed) timetable, including the 'Taupō Mallet' (ALCo 53970/1912).
But who were A. & G. Price? Originally founded in Onehunga, Auckland, as a marine firm by Alfred and George Price, the brothers would take advantage of the Coromandel gold rush and begin selling industrial pumps to mining companies in the 1870s.
They would also close down the Onehunga premises and set up shop in Beach Rd, Thames. Price got their start in the railway industry with a small 0-4-0ST locomotive for Messrs. Smith of Kennedy's Bay. This loco is generally considered to be a resounding failure. The first successful locomotives would be the Ministry of Works (known colloquially as the Public Works Dept, PWD) 501-502 series. These were identical to the NZR Wf Class.
Price is well known for their Climax and Heisler clones, which employed features from both locomotives. Notable engines include the Cb Type (Cb 117 used on construction of Nihotupu Dam), V Type ('true' Heisler clone), E Type (Class B Climax clone, used Heisler style pony trucks) and the Cba (an improved Cb). They would build 16-wheeler bush lokeys*.
Price would also build dozens of locomotives for New Zealand Railways and would later begin producing diesel locomotives for bush and industrial railways. By the 1990s, Price was king! They had spent the 20th Century building locomotives and road vehicles for lucrative government contracts, and there was no end in sight. They had even regauged the Silver Star carriages to metre gauge for export to Singapore.
Except there was. By 2017, the company lost most of its work, as neither NZRC (New Zealand Railways Corporation), TranzRail, TollRail, or KiwiRail have ever gone back to Price. The company was subsequently placed into administration. The company was saved by an Auckand based businessman and was reformed as AG Price Ltd, ending the 149-year legacy of the greatest engineering firm in Aotearoa New Zealand.
Many A. & G. Price locomotives can still be found on heritage railways, and I know of one Price-CAT Inc. motor grader in a museum. The Foundry is a heritage listed building which means it can never be torn down.

CIMA IMPUL II
big game taste
Impuls version of Cima available now
Produced by Kazuyoshi Hoshino
Popular brand "IMPUL"
Cima wearing those Impul parts
Perfect for you who are looking for the real thing
Rather than Nissan
Japan's representative prestige server
Cima
FY32 type (old model) has its orthodox style
Equipped with a 4.1ℓ V8 it was
top class for customers
It was a superlative saloon.
Such a Cima has been
enhanced by
Popular brand Impul
If it comes to Impul's version,
For the luxury and formality of Cima,
Infused with racing spirit
It can be said that it is one of the sporty cars.
The times are for the real thing.
No more tricks and tricks.
I want to ask for the real thing even in the car.
I can confidently recommend it to you
How many cars are there?
For Cima, which has the top-class ability in Japan,
Impul with this added value,
I'm sure it's one of those few.
CIMA IMPUL A
Impul version of Cima now available
Hot eyes on the white pearl body!
The FY32 Cima has an orthodox and formal style. Length x Width x Height = 4945 x 1780 x 1435. The square form of the 5m big body is quite strong. With its imposing body fully painted in white pearl, and equipped with Impul front and rear aero bumpers, side steps, and rear spoiler, the Impal Cima is even more fearless and powerful. The wide front aero bumper is blacked out and the grille stands out. The specially made rear spoiler is also the best match for the simple rear view.
What's more, the feet are sharpened by a combination of Bridgestone G-grid and Impul RS aluminum. The car I test drove was a 4-year Type II-based Impul Cima, and the interior is a super-luxury version with full-featured navigation, airbags, electric seats on both sides, and active suspension.
The 4.1L V8 engine that generates 270PS is very smooth and powerful. It accelerates easily from over 100 km, and is one of the best at high-speed cruising. The BSG grid with high-grip tires handles high-level cornering with ease. What is impressive is its quietness. The quietness of about 2000 revolutions at 100km/h will make you addicted once you get on. In addition to the quiet and solid running, the secret is that if you feel like it, you can enjoy a sporty run that puts the sports car to shame. There is no dissatisfaction at all because the interior is a top-class saloon. The seat with sufficient space is not only comfortable to sit on, but also has a high hold. The rear seats are also spacious. Plenty of space around the head and knees
It is comfortable with good clearance.
When I was driving on the highway, I was often stared at.
There are many drivers who can. This is also Impul Cima armed with Impul parts
They probably won't.
The price to be worried about will change depending on the price of the base car, but it is said that it will be about half the price when an individual dresses up with this many parts. As another form of Japan's representative prestige saloon, the Impul is full of charm as a vehicle that gives you a taste of the real thing. If you are looking for a second hand old Cima, or if you are looking for the real thing, this is the one that will surely satisfy you. In addition to Impul 500S there is also a more elegant type available. e

I have tried to find the artist s who worked on these. The closest I can get is one of there works in an online art gallery. Title: 54 Running Horses
It lists the art author as Jiahong Xie but that may just be a manager or art gallery contact. It says the store that makes this is in Anxi China but the store name is so bland I can't find it.
"By Spirits was founded by China Gifts & Crafts Wholesale Co. , Ltd. In 2003. We have a strong team of artists and craft masters, who have decades of experience." the store page is https://www.artquid.com/seller/byspirits/about

The Essential Guide to Residential Tree Removal in Calgary
Trees can enhance the beauty of our homes, provide shade, and contribute to the environment. However, there are times when tree removal becomes a necessity. Whether due to disease, damage, or safety concerns, understanding when and how to remove a tree is crucial. At Evergreen Ltd, we specialize in residential tree removal in Calgary, and we're here to guide you through the process.
When is Tree Removal Necessary?
Health Issues: Trees can suffer from various diseases or infestations that compromise their health. Signs include yellowing leaves, dead branches, or fungus growth. If a tree is too far gone, removal may be the best option to prevent the spread of disease to surrounding plants.
Structural Damage: Severe weather conditions, like storms or heavy winds, can damage trees, making them unstable. If a tree shows signs of leaning or has split branches, it poses a risk to your property and should be assessed by a professional.
Safety Concerns: Trees that grow too close to power lines, homes, or other structures can become hazardous. If a tree's branches are touching a roof or power line, it's time to consider removal.
Landscaping Needs: Sometimes, tree removal is necessary to make way for new landscaping projects or home renovations. Removing unwanted trees can open up space and improve the aesthetics of your property.
The Residential Tree Removal Process
At Evergreen Ltd, our tree removal process is designed to be safe, efficient, and thorough:
Assessment: We begin with a comprehensive assessment of the tree's health and its surroundings. Our certified arborists evaluate the risks and determine the best approach for removal.
Planning: Based on the assessment, we create a detailed plan to ensure a safe removal. This includes evaluating the tree's height, proximity to structures, and the direction of its fall.
Removal: Using specialized equipment and techniques, our team carefully removes the tree, taking precautions to protect your property. We ensure that all branches and the trunk are safely lowered to prevent any damage.
Clean-up: After removal, we take care of the debris, leaving your yard clean and tidy. We also offer stump grinding services if desired, allowing you to reclaim your space completely.
Why Choose Evergreen Ltd?
Expertise: Our team consists of certified arborists with extensive experience in tree removal. We understand the unique challenges posed by Calgary’s climate and terrain.
Safety First: We prioritize safety for both our team and your property. Our methods adhere to industry best practices, ensuring a risk-free experience.

find the word tag
there was an open tag & i took it
word: breathe [wip: Orphan Signal, fanfiction]
Video title: RARE!!! Vintage 1960 Palisades Production movie set 45mm vinyl Ace Jenkins Al Alfred Jones #1950s #1960s #cowboy #western #classic hollywood #vintage #antique #vinyl #record Video desc: Vinyl record on a turntable, not moving. Label is faded blue with white title RED RIVER VALLEY, subtitle PALISADES LTD. ©1959, Al ‘ACE’ Jones. A hand comes in from out of frame and moves the needle onto the record, then starts the turntable. After a brief scratching noise, a tinny guitar plays the tune ‘Red River Valley,’ with a distant male voice joining in singing indistinguishable words. The record continues spinning at the same speed but the song itself speeds up until it’s unintelligible. The hand comes back and adjusts the speed of the turntable, slowing the record’s spinning. The song resumes at its correct BPM, although the singer breathes heavily and stumbles over the words, eventually ceasing to sing and just gasping and panting (crying?) over the music. Singer coughs then keeps panting. The guitar sound slows. The hand comes back and adjusts the speed faster to keep the guitar at the correct BPM, which requires constant gradual adjustments as the music continuously slows. Eventually the guitar stops. Heavy, uneven breathing continues, then the sound of someone swallowing and clearing their throat. Record continues spinning for another 13 seconds of silence except for occasional pop and hiss. Needle clicks off and returns to ‘Off’ position. Record continues spinning. Video ends. Total time: 13:47
word: copper [wip: Beg, Borrow or Steal, original work]
"I see…I see a trunk. A traveling trunk. Is the dress there, lying in wait, at the bottom of a traveling trunk, a wedding dress that once held such happiness…" Another rattle from the table added in, like it was voicing agreement. Twisting her wedding ring, a plain copper band, Mrs. Herman said, "…Nothing you couldn't guess, storing a wedding dress in a trunk. Lots of people save their wedding dress and a trunk is where they'd keep it, isn't it. Nothing there that a spirit had to tell you." Beneath the table, a series of knocks startled Mrs. Herman again and she tapped her foot on the floor beneath, finding nothing. "But this isn't just a wedding dress for one bride, is it, madam," the medium said, her sleepy eyes steady on her customer for once. "This was a wedding dress for mothers, and for daughters…this was a wedding dress that was meant for a family…" Jaw grinding, Mrs. Herman said, very politely, "The spirits should know when to hold their tongues. That's none of your business. Or theirs, either, quite frankly."
word: salt [wip: The Ressurectionist, necromancy AU of Beg, Borrow or Steal]
He placed the handkerchief with its dried blood on the sterile metal table and gathered the supplies. Salt, to bind the connection in place and keep anything from leaking over to the world of the living (or too much of the living from seeping back into the void). Oil to burn – and give him light to work by – because while a flame was a poor substitute for true life, it was easy to maintain and easy to work with. Fresh, living, human blood. He hissed slightly. The nick of the knife into the side of his thumb was routine by now, but it didn’t mean the nerve cells let it go. The small radio in the corner sparked to life, tuned to static.
word: fine [wip: Beg, Borrow or Steal]
"Man came in here a little while back, asking about a medium," Nash said, examining her cigarette. "We can do that. What kinda man?" Being a spirit medium required very little to do with reading spirits and a lot more to do with reading a client, Amelia had found. But then, she'd had a lot of practice in the fine art of telling people what they wanted to hear. Grinding out the stub of her smoke, Nash said, "That's the thing, a strange kinda man." "Normal kinds don't talk to ghosts," Vinny deadpanned. "Yeah, well--true," Nash said, frowning a little in thought at that. Knowing how distractable Nash could be when left with her thoughts, Amelia quickly got them back on track. "How do we get in contact with him, honey?" "Oh, he left his card." With a little twist, she flicked it in a spiral. It landed on the table, face up. Over his cup of coffee Vinny spared it a quick glance, then just watched Amelia's reaction. She just pursed her lips. Nothing much to say--a plain business card for a plain business man. Those were the worst; trying to read a blank.
i used an open tag and i'll leave an open tag. next set of words:
comfort, tough, close, sound, and lost
