#Union Terminal

The Undercover Ensemble performing at the Cincinnati Museum Center, aka Union Terminal, Christmas time, 2013.

"Don't You Worry About A Thing"

The half dome rotunda of this Art Deco train station has quite an echo. Sometimes, a performance can eventually overcome it, as here.

"Union View"

The day before I took these, I didn't get any photos of Satsuki and her "dog" but, however, the day I took these, I did, capturing this view from Union Terminal.

Deep Sky

The Omnimax showing of Deep Sky was pretty nice.

Sadly, I have come to the realization that if I had a budding Communist state around this day and age and influential people were saying shit like "Stardew Valley is capitalist propaganda" I might in fact slaughter a few hundred otherwise loyal communists

So the Milwaukee Road was the First Railroad to use the use 3000 Volt DC power for any significant stretches of Electrification in 1915 (it was adopted by South African Railways in 1925, Cleveland Union Terminal (under the New York Central Railroad), the Soviet Union in 1930, the Delaware Lackawanna and Western Railroad in 1930, Italy in 1933, Brazil in 1935, Spain and Chile in 1945)

however the Primary mainline Electrification system United States would be 11,000 Volts 25 Hertz AC which was Adopted by the New York New Haven and Hartford Railroad in 1907 between Pelham and Stamford in New York (later all the way between Manhattan and New Haven CT), the Pennsylvania in 1915 between Philadelphia and Paoli (later the Entire PRR mainline between Washington DC and New York as well the entire Philadelphia Suburban Network), the Great Northern railroad in 1922 between Wenatchee and Skykomish (de-electrified in 1956), the Virginian Railroad in 1925 between Mullens and Roanoke (de-electrified in 1962), the Reading Railroad in 1928 for their Half of the Philadelphia Suburban Network, and very Briefly the Norfolk and Western had Electrified the Elkhorn grade with this system but de-electrified in 1940

Opponents of an expansion to a marine container port on B.C.'s South Coast held a news conference in Vancouver Wednesday to reiterate their concerns about the impact on the environment and local jobs if the project, recently approved by the federal government, goes ahead.

"There's times when we do need to say, 'No. We do need to say 'no,'" said Rueben George, a member of the Tsleil-Waututh Nation, as he pointed to his nation's territorial waters behind him from Vancouver's CRAB Park with the Port of Vancouver in the background.

The group of those publicly opposing the Roberts Bank Terminal 2 (RBT2) in Delta, B.C., about 35 kilometres south of Vancouver, is growing and now includes two unions, the International Longshore & Warehouse Union of Canada and the B.C. General Employees' Union, along with a dozen conservation organizations.

Taking an absolute shot in the dark - maybe because there is no finances involved with the CCs? They’re not employees, just guys? They’re not involved in the legal case against him, are they? I have no legal experience but thats the connection my brain made.

I guess, maybe? But also, and this is important, I don’t believe there is a legal case at all outside of the one Q has going on with that Bad Boss that was fired first. None of the former admins besides the Bad Ones seem to be going forward with a lawsuit, and even the Union isn’t doing one yet. I think Léa mentioned maybe wanting to move forward with one, but she obviously hasn’t started that process yet because she’s talking too much

An apology does count as a legal admission of guilt in the US, but him telling the former admins (besides the ones going to court against him) “Hey, we had to let you go from the team while we investigate and restructure. You’ll be contacted in the future regarding your employment status in the studio once the restructuring process is done” but like more professional-y isn’t an apology, and it isn’t a guarantee of future employment. It still leaves the admins in limbo, but at least they know they’ll be contacted in the future, which a LOT of former admins have spoke out about. Not knowing

So if Precinct 41 is really soooo understaffed and overworked and handling the workload of 4 precincts already, and the whole C-Wing is in shambles bc of Harry’s antics, why do they want Martinaise so badly, to the point of staging a whole cop contest over it? It seems like they’re majorly screwing themselves over just for the sake of posturing? Why take on even more work, all for the dubious privilege of policing a few busted streets? Why don’t they just hand it off to the 57th, who seem to have more manpower and better equipment and less personnel troubles, and focus on the gigantic caseload they apparently already h oooohhhh right they want harbor access for Le Retour. Okay, next-

“An Outing She Didn’t Hate”

Beatrice hardly ever ventures far from the library but the Museum trip so happened to be an outing she wasn’t vocally disapproving of.
