amazing bit of work. this must have taken a very long time.
Lightning strikes three of the tallest buildings in Chicago at the same time!
For the third time in the last 6 days, another line of nasty storms rolled through Chicago on Wednesday evening. I love coming home and being able to watch and capture nature’s beauty from my balcony.
“Wed’s storms towered up to 63,000 ft, unleashed 80 mph gusts, local 3”+ rains and 15,000 cloud to ground lightning strikes in a single hour.” via @Skilling

Unwritten Rules Of Baseball
Baseball is a sport rich in tradition, and many of its most sacred rules and practices are passed from player to player. Onion Sports lists the most revered of baseball’s unwritten rules:
- Never go underneath the catcher’s legs when entering the batter’s box
- A manager should be detached from the players and never once talk to or acknowledge them during the regular season
- When a ball is hit directly up into the sky, it is customary to locate yourself beneath the downward trajectory of the ball and attempt to have it land in your glove
- Speaking about a perfect game or no-hitter in progress is strictly forbidden; instead, gesture wildly at the scoreboard so your pitcher knows what’s at stake
- Many find it surprising, but there is no rule stating you have to wear a helmet while batting—baseball players are just superstitious
- Secret of the infield fly rule must be kept from outsiders
- It’s bad luck to speak with a pitcher who is in the middle of his windup
- If a batter hits a home run, the pitcher is allowed to pelt him with baseballs for the rest of his life
- In a bench-clearing brawl, do not punch the batboy unless you are an opposing batboy or down more than 10 runs
