Skyline cam looks down on Devon Tower construction

Thanks to Devon Energy’s Chip Minty and Tony Thornton, Hines’ David Moore, our new friends at Earthcam, The Oklahoman’s Steve Lackmeyer, NewsOK’s Alan Herzberger and James Duncan, a six month odyssey to provide streaming video of the Devon Tower and OKC downtown growth is live to the planet.

Did I mention David Jones and Todd Fraser from my crew?

It takes a nation sometimes but the end result is a look from 50 floors up at the ongoing progress as OKC’s tallest structure grows.

On Sunday, I caught up with Tony and Steve (see video above) to capture footage of the concrete pour and a quick interview.

Yes, it was remarkably cold Sunday from atop the parking garage directly north of the construction site.

Your job could be worse

USA Today posted a story from “Popular Science” about the ten worst jobs in science:

Armpit detective

Feces piper

Sneeze modeler

Dung curator

Doomsday fact-checker

Oceanic-snot diver

Tissue reaper

Bad-dance observer

Bean counter

Whale slasher

… AND THE BEST JOB?

Multispecies baby tickler

Clearly this has nothing to do with OPUBCO Video, but the story did make me stop, click and read. Perspective can be a good thing.
