I always remember James Gandolfini every time I hear Journey's 'Don't Stop Believing' song. A sad loss for all. RIP Tony!

Here's another shot from my recent Beijing/China trip. This one was taken atop the Beijing TV tower and facing some brilliantly lit buildings.   On the right bottom corner here, the dark area is a construction zone. I can't wait to see how this area changes as new buildings are completed. The last shot I shared here was taken from the same location, but looking in the opposite direction.  Note: I uploaded this one in full resolution, try zooming in and looking at the detail. Pretty nifty :)

JONATHAN CHRISTOPHER KENDALL   (1962-2013)

With the greatest of sorrow I, +su ann lim , have to inform you that Jonathan Christopher Kendall, my fiancé and love of my life, died suddenly last night on 15 June 2013.  Despite the incredible efforts of our friends +Suzanne Jacob +Gaynal Brierley , paramedics and ambulance personnel he could not be revived.

Jonathan lived as he believed, telling it like it is, with wit and humour, enjoying life to the hilt, with honour, directness and compassion.  I was incredibly blessed to be the recipient of his immense love, and as each other's beloved, to share unbelievable happiness for too short a time.   Jonathan, I LOVE YOU with all my heart and miss you desperately.

One of the favourite activities in his life was to engage with all you here on Google Plus.  He thrived on the intellectual challenges, soaked up  avast amou... more »

Entrance to a Silver City. San Francisco, CA

I took this photo from Yerba Buena Island. I had seen some images from this area before and thought I would go check it out. It took a little while to find the place but it was well worth it. A few other photographers showed up that night which was cool. We were there for about 2 hours or so before we were kicked out by some security guards. 

I shot the image with my Canon 60D and a Tamron 18-270mm lens.

Postprocessing completed in Lightroom 4, Nik Silver Efex Pro, and Photoshop CS6.

Using the mind to control prosthetic limbs.

Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is working with civilian researchers to develop prosthetic limbs that the wearer can control with his thoughts.

The product that is the closest to completion uses a method called targeted muscle reinnervation, or TMR. It employs the existing nerves near an amputation site, allowing the person wearing the prosthesis to control it directly using signals from those muscles.

“I witnessed employees and managers change and falsify information in the systems of record, and remove documents from homeowners’ files to make the account appear ineligible for a loan modification,” said Terrelonge, a loan servicing representative. This allowed managers to meet quotas for closed cases, she said."

"Loan collectors who put at least 10 customers into foreclosure, including those who were in trial modifications, were given a $500 bonus, said Gordon, who worked at Bank of America for more than four years. Other rewards included gift cards for retailers including Target (TGT) and Bed, Bath and Beyond, she said."

It's a little insane isn't it? Incentivizing employees to hurt customers? However, it does go a little ways in explaining why so many foreclosure papers were "lost" in recent years.

Born and raised in San Antonio and a proud SA Spurs fan. What jerks out there to pop his bubble! I'm sure he was so excited and proud to sing the National Anthem just like any other American kid would be and then to encounter such hate is outrageous!
