      Wanted: Nighttime Aerial Videos of Downtown for Web Site

      I'm doing a revamp of the web site for my book Guardian Angel, which features a nighttime aerial romp with the titular angel and her human over downtown Houston. I'd like to find some drone video which I could license for commercial use as a background layer on my site. I'd like to exclude any recognizable trademarks, specifically the roof of the Toyota Center. I've owned (okay, driven...my Dad bought it and owned it) one Toyota in my life, a 1973 Corona station wagon with an 18RC engine. Never Again...if you see someone who looks like me purchasing a Toyota, please go up to him and ask, "Who are you and what have you done with Eric?" My budget is very modest. I've tried the stock photo licensing companies where I have an account, but their videos are all "Editorial Use Only." So I figured I'd ask here. Thanks In Advance for any help.

      Galveston's Population

      Land availability and cost on Galveston Island is, like anywhere else, subject to the ordinary process of supply and demand. The high percentage of people from adjacent areas commuting to and from Galveston is more noticeable due to the distance separating it from the mainland. Unlike Galveston, many other beach resort barrier islands have only a relatively narrow waterway separating them from the mainland.

      Nashville, TN Developments

      Oracle founder reveals Nashville campus plans: 'Center of our future' (tennessean.com) ""We found this beautiful campus right on the river. It’s not going to look anything like a corporate campus. What we’re building is a park. A park first that has buildings in it. Those buildings are not only office buildings and include a community clinic with the very latest versions of our software," he said. "There will be a concert venue, a lake with a floating stage where we can have concerts for the community. We want to be part of the community. Our people love it here and we think it’s the center of our future.""

      Lower Westheimer Road Construction

      Neartown brought in three "knowledgeable" people from Metro to explain what could be expected on their Westheimer (610 to Man street)upgrade. Attendees really only interested in Shepherd to Bagby. First off, as far as I could tell, the Mayor demanded, his view on changes be incorporated in ; Metro complied. It is mostly, just a "redo" of street surfaces around ( scraped down then spread)18" deep- this might be fine but if unearth concrete is cracked, this won't work so well- double down that it might not work at all if underlying brick street is uncovered from Montrose to Bagby. New curbs cut in driveways- commercial driveways 8"----private driveways 6". LED lights within bus shelters, but no "green" nor artificial shade for bus stops without shelters. Buses on route 82 will remain same width (wider than current lane width) and same weight ( the weight that has torn up that part of lower Westheimer in first place) A little something interesting-- the original research and plan of the lower Westheimer approvements, weren't viewed or reviewed by Metro--- just the Mayor saying "Do this now!" Yes there will be sidewalks tweaks, more handicapped cuts at curbs and distance between bus stops will be increased slightly so improve "speed" that is currently around 18 miles per hour. There was no mention of moving current bus stops that are located just before an intersection to beyond the intersection; that would allow traffic to right turn behind buses so traffic flows more efficiently. Don't really have a crystal ball, but think after this " lick and a promise" is completed" any chance at meaningful improvements for lower Westheimer will be gone forever. sigh
