Construction Photos Of Empire State Building
The document describes the construction of the Empire State Building in 1930. It mentions that modern safety equipment like fall protection would not be invented until later in the 1990s. It provides snippets of conversation between workers highlighting the lack of safety practices and equipment during construction, such as standing on loose scaffolding boards and not wearing protective gloves.
Empire State Building
The document contains photos from the construction of the Empire State Building in 1930 showing workers without modern safety equipment, taking risks as they built the iconic skyscraper. Scaffolding, impact wrenches, and loose boards are visible, with captions noting the lack of ear protection, fall protection, and safety practices compared to modern standards. The photos were taken by Lewis Wickes Hine to document the massive construction project.
Empire State Building
The document discusses the construction of the Empire State Building in 1930. It references the lack of safety equipment and protocols during construction, with workers using impact wrenches without hearing protection, standing on loose scaffolding boards, and questioning what would happen if a tool slipped and hit them before they fell from the building. It also mentions seeing how far down the Chrysler Building was and a truck from 1930 with low profile tires.
Empire statebldg
The Empire State Building was constructed in New York City starting in 1929 and completed in 1931. Safety practices during its construction were virtually non-existent, with workers performing dangerous tasks without fall protection or hearing protection. Photographs from the construction site show workers balancing precariously on scaffolding and beams hundreds of feet in the air. The building was constructed quickly using manual labor and basic equipment instead of modern cranes and machinery.
Empire statebldg+2
The Empire State Building was constructed in New York City between 1929 and 1931. Photos from the construction show workers performing dangerous tasks without proper safety equipment, such as using impact wrenches without hearing protection, standing on loose scaffolding boards, and wondering what would happen if a wrench slipped and hit their face before they fell to the sidewalk below. The photos document the risky working conditions and lack of safety practices during this era.

Hi Mr Rick Gore 2
Banjo is a horse who was orphaned by his mother and passed between owners until he was difficult to handle and killed a sheep. He was then found by a patient man with grey hair and his daughter, who took Banjo in and are working to train him through quiet, consistent work. Banjo now lives on their farm in Gore, New Zealand where he continues his training with the daughter to become a trustworthy riding horse through positive reinforcement without harsh equipment.

Home Projects
This document provides several examples of unsafe and improper home repairs and installations. Some examples include using an automotive radiator attached to floor joists for home heating, replacing drain piping with an old car part, improper venting of gas appliances, and risky electrical work. Many of the suggestions involve recycling unusual items for purposes they were not intended for and ignore standard safety practices.
Only In Russia
Russia has a unique culture that values community and bringing people together. Extended families often live together in multi-generational households, sharing meals and celebrating holidays and life events as an entire family unit. This close-knit family structure has endured for centuries and continues to be an important part of Russian culture and identity today.
Firearms
The document discusses the importance of gun rights and citizens' ability to bear arms. It provides several quotes from historical figures like George Washington and Thomas Jefferson supporting this view. It also lists several examples from the 20th century where disarming populations made them vulnerable to mass killings by authoritarian regimes like the Soviet Union, Turkey, Germany, China, Guatemala and Cambodia totaling over 56 million deaths. The document advocates that an armed population deters invasion and protects against tyrannical governments stripping away citizens' liberties.
What A Wonderful World
This document provides a nostalgic look back at popular TV shows, movies, and celebrities from the 1940s-1970s. It also highlights how many famous actors from that era, such as Clark Gable and James Stewart, served bravely in World War II rather than protesting the country like some celebrities today. Audie Murphy is noted as the most decorated serviceman of WWII who earned numerous honors despite his small stature.
Chinas Amazing Bridges
The Hangzhou Bay Bridge in China is the longest sea-crossing bridge in the world at 36 kilometers long. It took 9 years and 600 engineers to plan and design the S-shaped bridge, which links Ningbo and Jiaxing and cuts 120 km off the drive between Shanghai and Ningbo. The unique bridge has a 10,000 square meter service center in the middle with a restaurant, gas station, hotel, and observation tower allowing visitors to view the bay's extraordinary tides and waves. The specially designed bridge can withstand typhoons and hurricanes.

Really Old Pictures
This document contains photographs from British Columbia taken on Frazer Canyon Highway and Bella Coola Highway. The photographs appear to be quite old based on their quality and style. The document ends abruptly with the phrase "That's All Folks".
911
The document discusses aerial photos taken on September 11, 2001 during the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center. The photos were likely captured from a military helicopter and contain images from 9/11 that have not been widely shared online. While some may want to forget the events, the author believes it is important to reawaken memories of that day through sharing the photos more widely.
