Mom woke me up at noon to show me the pristine foamcore sheet she found in the basement. She also offered me the righthand side's slogan courtesy of a magat trying to mock me on her bsky. It would have been rude NOT to take advantage of the local ice cream stand's name today.
I was ready by 2, which incidentally is when the area's protests were also scheduled for.
Dad offered to come with me, even though he was skeptical that cars would be moving slow enough to read a sign.

Tiny little Falls Church Virginia had a nice energetic and joyful protest with between 6-900 people at the peak (there were 156 in my lightly populated area and we covered blocks, most areas with far denser groups).

Henry Clay Frick was a union buster

In 1892, he hired hundreds of Pinkerton detectives
β€” a private army of thugs with guns
β€” to quell a strike against a Pennsylvania steel mill.

Ten men were killed, dozens injured, and the situation became so inflamed that the state militia was called in to break the workers’ resistance.

Frick, who made a fortune supplying the coal derivative known as coke
to Andrew Carnegie’s steel company, where Frick later served as chairman,
was left with a tattered reputation for years.

Only amnesia β€” and art β€” could repair the damage, generations later.

At the Frick, a grand Gilded Age collection shows its intimate side washingtonpost.com/entertainme…

Clayton is one of the very few houses to survive fully in tact from the period when the street was known as "Millionaire's Row".

The Frick's daughter, Helen, maintained the house up until her death which occurred here in 1984.

Since 1990, Clayton has been open to the public as the home of the Frick Art and Historical Center....

in reply to Chuck Darwin

George Westinghouse conducted many of his experiments at Solitude, notably from the basement of the carriage house in which he maintained his private laboratory.

He dug out tunnels that were lit electrically to connect the house to various outbuildings on the estate
as well as to the train station itself.

He was also one of the first men in Pittsburgh to have a telephone which put him directly in touch with his offices downtown.

In 1884, while conducting experiments into the safe transmission of natural gas
he began digging for his own source in his own backyard
which resulted in an accidental blowout that shot a plume of flame 100-feet in the air for over a week
until Westinghouse devised a method to cap the well

The Westinghouses died within just three months of one another in 1914.

In 1919, their only child, George, sold the estate with
- just as he did with Erskine Park
- a stipulation that the house be demolished.

The estate is now the public Westinghouse Park, maintained by the City of Pittsburgh.

Seattle Airport #KSEA is ground-stopped by FAA due to a security issue, presumably related to protests. Multiple diversions into Portland #KPDX. #aviation #travel #avgeek #PNW

Thanks to @W1PAC for the link. At least contributing to the diversions of Seattle-bound flights was an incident with an unruly passenger that closed #SEA / #KSEA runways 16R and 16C. But the web site's timeline starts 20 minutes after Seattle-bound planes were diverting to Portland. portseattle.org/news/june-14-a… #aviation #travel #avgeek #PNW

"Passenger who made 'direct threat' aboard plane at SEA Airport taken into custody" by KING5 News (NBC Seattle) - Closure of two runways at Seattle-Tacoma Int'l Airport #KSEA was due to an Alaska Airlines flight operated by subsidiary Horizon Air, with a passenger making a security threat leading to law enforcement response on the airport ramp. So the runway closures were coincidental to the protests at the airport, not because of them. king5.com/article/travel/depar… #aviation #travel #avgeek #PNW

People showed up in Sacramento! By bike, by light rail, on foot, by car... streaming in and out of the Capitol for hours! There are still so many people there. Definitely the most people I have seen so far this year. Here's one of my favorite protest signs.

I think Hokel was being sarcastic because Margie Taylor Green was calling her out for not following immigration law...

Which is law..

So her not following it is illegal



I love San Francisco!
