The thing I've always wondered about this image is the purpose of putting one of the innocents in women's clothing and clearly making him effeminate. That element doesn't feature into the legend of St. Nicholas or feature in the later version by the same artist:



Anyone know anything?

Pipeline is by far the safest way to ship things in bulk instead of tanker truck, rail cars, or barges.

The problem is you have grandfathered in pipelines, in heavily populated areas that are prone to problems.

Iiiiinteresting! I suppose it's a Russian painting of an event taking place in what would end up being the lands of the despotic Turk. Could be a clue? After all, this is the artist that did that awesome Reply of the Zaporizhyan (spelling?????) Cossacks which is all about manly folk facing down the despotic Turk, again.
If we look at the three innocents as representative of the people who find themselves under foreign rule, we've got one who's powerless because he is old, one who is powerless because he is all decadent and effeminate-looking, and one who is powerless but is resolving to pray his way through things.
Yeah I dunno.

A photo from the Oakland Ghost Ship, an artist collective in a space not coded for human occupancy, much less public events with a hundred+ people. The entire interior was the same mass of kindling. One exit. Barred windows. 33+ dead from the fire that tore through the place in a matter of minutes last Friday night.

The owner's Facebook post bemoaning the loss of his 'awesome' place while the bodies were still smoldering.

That is a neat as hell looking place, but holy poo poo how do you so blatantly ignore building and fire code for so long? Their stairs were made of loving pallets.

I live in Oakland, and the issue of "residential"/converted warehouses gets kind of complicated.

It's pretty well known (although anecdotal) that the city is aware that there are a lot of people living in converted warehouses that aren't up to code. The problem is that if an inspector shows up and red tags the building, the current occupants will move out, and then almost immediately the place will start to fill up with more transient residents, e.g. the homeless, or crusters, or drug enterprises. This leads to a whole different set of problems, including increased crime, blight, and general bother for the neighbors, all of which is going on in a warehouse that is still not safe for habitation. The City of Oakland has, apparently, decided to look the other way on code violations because they find the second scenario more distasteful than the first (not to mention, city services are woefully underfunded, and I'm positive that there aren't enough inspectors to cover the whole city). I'm in no way trying to slam Oakland's code and fire inspectors--I worked in a warehouse in Oakland, and whenever we pulled a permit for a fundraiser, they required us to submit a whole plan and would show up during events to make sure that we were following it.

I probably don't have to mention that the whole bay area is facing the dual problems of (1) not enough funding for a social safety net and (2) rapidly evaporating affordable housing, which leads to people living in unsafe converted buildings, which often leads to tragedy.

O sultan, Turkish devil and damned devil's kith and kin, secretary to Lucifer himself. What the devil kind of knight are thou, that canst not slay a hedgehog with your naked arse? The devil shits, and your army eats. Thou shallt not, thou son of a whore, make subjects of Christian sons; we have no fear of your army, by land and by sea we will battle with thee, gently caress thy mother.

Thou Babylonian scullion, Macedonian wheelwright, brewer of Jerusalem, goat-fucker of Alexandria, swineherd of Greater and Lesser Egypt, pig of Armenia, Podolian thief, catamite of Tartary, hangman of Kamyanets, and fool of all the world and underworld, an idiot before God, grandson of the Serpent, and the crick in our dick. Pig's snout, mare's arse, slaughterhouse cur, unchristened brow, screw thine own mother!

So the Zaporozhians declare, you lowlife. You won't even be herding pigs for the Christians. Now we'll conclude, for we don't know the date and don't own a calendar; the moon's in the sky, the year with the Lord, the day's the same over here as it is over there; for this kiss our arse!
