First post, which is neat. Anyways, Warhammer 40k theory time. I'm writing this with all info from memory and watching something, so sorry for any inaccuracy. All my info comes from the fandom wiki and lexicanum.

So, the First Battle of Paramar V was fairly important. Paramar V itself was a storage depot/resupply point of sorts, managed and I think "owned" by the Mechanicum, and was located on the edge of the Sol System. Horus knew he had to take it, but it was heavily defended so he sent the Alpha male legion to deal with it. They did their usual sleeper agent stuff as well as gaslighting, gatekeeping, girlbossing their way inside some orbital defences above paramar 3 or 4 by saying they were the Dark Angels or Imperial fists, don't remember.

Anyways, they had to prematurely start blasting Razormind because a fleet of Iron Warriors (77th grand battalion) led by Kyr Vhalen showed up. However, it turned out they were loyalist since they had been out in buttfuck nowhere and hadn't talked to the larger force of Peter Taxpayers kids in a while. The Alpha Legion did an oopsy daisy and shot at them, causing them to side with the mechanicum forces when the Battle of Paramar V started.

Skipping past the "Cowabunga it is" that was the first battle of Paramar V, the Ironic warriors, mechanicum, and Legio Gryphonicus (War Griffons) were pushed back to some hold, and eventually the Omega legion, Dark mechanicum, and legio mortis took said hold, but not before Kyr Vhalen, the Mechanicum leader, and the surviving 77th and War Griffons dipped. The 77th and Kyr Vhalen were not heard from again though, as far as I know.

It is my theory (and headcannon, cause I write for funsies) that the Knights of Gryphonne are descendants of this group of Iron Warriors, the 77th. My reasoning, which should be taken with a grain of salt due to the amount of assumptions, is as follows:

The 77th very well could have fought hard enough to gain both the respect of the Mechanicum defenders, as well as the War Griffons. A deal could have been struck between them and the 77th for the iron warriors to go to the Gryphonne Octad to defend it should they need to, or some other arrangement in which the 77th went to the Gryphonne octad or one of the War Griffons various holdings etc.

Providing the above, you may be wondering why Gryphonne IV or the Gryphonne Octad would allow this to happen, which would be that the War Griffons, being a titan legion, and a decorated one at that, have a lot of sway, being considered to be avatars of the omnissiah if not minor gods unto themselves.

The knights of gryphonne have effectively no info on them, only that they're fleet based now because they lost their former homeworld and they're in/near the reductus sector of the segmentum tempestus (they're also on a map i found, which is peculiar, think it was on the lexicanum). This means that very well anything could be their backstory, including them intentionally being obscure to not attract attention to them.

Mechanicus peeps are sneaky and untrustworthy as hell, they very well could be intentionally harboring their geneseed and replacing it with someone elses, etc.

It's cool idk

I am fully aware that there is no concrete proof, and that they almost certainly are not descended from the 77th, but it is an interesting prospect to me nonetheless. I hope this was somewhat interesting to you as well, and I'd like to hear other theories you may have.

Age of Steam Roundhouse Museum

213 Smokey Lane Rd. SW

Sugarcreek, OH 44681

The Age of Steam Roundhouse Museum, located in Sugarcreek, Tuscarawas County,Ohio, is a museum roundhouse housing steam and diesel locomotives, passenger cars and other vintage United States and Canadian railroad equipment. The roundhouse was built by Jerry Joe Jacobson, former CEO of the Ohio Central Railroad System (OCRS). In October 2008, Jacobson sold his interest in OCRS to Genesee and Wyoming, including the track, modern equipment, and most of the workshops and depots. Jacobson kept a collection of vintage steam and diesel locomotives, other old equipment, and a depot at Sugarcreek, Ohio. He bought 34 acres in Sugarcreek and began constructing a roundhouse to house his collection. The roundhouse building was completed in 2011 and all of the steam locomotives, along with a few other select pieces of rolling stock in Jacobson's collection, were moved inside the roundhouse that same year. It was the first large roundhouse built in the United States since 1951, with the previous building being Nickel Plate Road's roundhouse in its Calumet Yard.

The project was paid for by Jacobson and his wife, Laura. They set up an endowment to support the museum. Architect F. A. Goodman says the building is 48,000 square feet and of solid masonry walls and heavy timber framing. It has 18 stalls, each of which is large enough for a locomotive and its tender. The Goodman company says the roundhouse is one of the largest heavy timber structures in America. The Age of Steam Roundhouse is a trip back into the era of steam locomotives and travel. The guided tour includes an 18-stall, accurately reconstructed brick roundhouse, largest private collection of steam locomotives in the world, and a fully functioning, working back shop where the museum continues to preserve, restore, and repair steam locomotives. The Age of Steam Roundhouse Museum Store is open for business.

Milwaukee Road’s Charter Line, Part Three of Three

The  Milwaukee Road in Wisconsin was originally called the Milwaukee and Waukesha, and then the Milwaukee and Mississippi Railroad. Late in 1976, I followed a train eastward on the line from Milton or so nearly to Waukesha. I believe the railroad was built through the area in these photographs in 1852 or 1853. This is the final of three posts.

This post begins with our train at the town of Genesee Depot; the building across tracks in the first two shots is now a restaurant called the Union House. The third picture shows the job at Bethesda Church Road—note the wonderful Wig-wag signal there. Too bad the image is marred by a fair amount of unwanted blur.

Lastly we see the train within the landscape. We’re just west of Waukesha in an area that is now the soccer fields at Sunset Park. The C&NW, which is now the Glacial Drumlin State Trail, can be seen paralleling the Milwaukee Road here.

These images, of a struggling railroad in the mid- to late-1970s (witness so much grass growing between the tracks) show just how bad off some roads were at this time.

Rochester, New York, is a notorious model of terrible urban planning and idiotic corporate sponsorship. On the underdeveloped side of the Genesee River, next to the bus station, sits the “National Museum of Play,” an odd institution founded by Margaret Woodbury Strong — a Rochester native who inherited millions of dollars and used it to collect thousands of dolls.

The museum has rotating exhibits, but its centerpiece is an elaborate model of a Wegmans grocery store, sponsored by Wegmans, which is owned by the Wegmans family, which is the area’s sole billion-dollar dynasty.

In the mini Wegmans “Super Kids Market,” children select groceries (plastic produce, but real cereal boxes and genuine Chef Boyardee cans) from real grocery shelves, put them in real (miniaturized) Wegmans shopping carts, ring them up on functioning cash registers with real grocery scanners, and print themselves real receipts with a real Wegmans logo at the top.

It’s so fun. Pretend to work in a grocery store? Pretend to have money? Pretend you alone are in charge of what you eat and all you are going to eat forever is Cinnamon Toast Crunch and alphabet soup? Amazing.

But (for me, at least) that was the late ’90s. Far from novelty or spon-con child’s game, self-checkouts pop up everywhere now: at the new Target in Barclays Center where I buy my useless seasonal objects and knockoff Urban Outfitters clothes; at the CVS where I buy my disgusting seasonal candy; at the Panera Bread where I buy a seasonal autumn squash soup and half a grilled cheese. I’ve heard they are in grocery stores throughout the city, but I refuse to look.

I saw a self-checkout in the Urban Outfitters in Herald Square and almost called the ACLU: Some lucky employee sits on a stool near the self-checkout stations and does nothing but remove ink tags from things before you buy them? Sure. What is a person if not just a slightly more dexterous arm than the ones that robots so far have?

Blessedly, I am not alone in fearing self-checkout. John Karolefski, a self-proclaimed undercover grocery shopping analyst who runs the blog Grocery Stories and contributes to the site Progressive Grocer, tells me, “I’m in a lot of supermarkets around the country. I watch people. I can tell you that I’ve been in stores where the lines that have cashiers are very, very long, and people are a little upset, and there are three or four self-checkout units open and nobody is using them.

“Wouldn’t the shopper be better served, customer service improved, if those weren’t there?” he asks. I’m not arguing. “Why do I want to scan my own groceries?” he asks. I have no idea! “Why do I want to bag my own groceries?” he asks. An equally reasonable question with no reasonable answer. The simple solution, he points out, would be to hire enough cashiers to serve the number of customers that typically shop at the store. I agree, and this seems very obvious.

But before we get ahead of ourselves, let’s go back. To 1917, when Clarence Saunders opened the first grocery store — a Piggly Wiggly in Memphis, Tennessee — where customers were permitted to remove items from shelves and put them into a hand basket without the assistance of a clerk. He successfully patented this idea, called the “Self-Serving Store,” which is ridiculous. It took 60 years for the idea to move forward in a meaningful way, which it did when Florida business executive David R. Humble created (and patented) a self-service register and founded a company called CheckRobot in 1984.

Because it was a bad idea, it did not do very well. CheckRobot hemorrhaged money, then merged with a similarly flailing Jacksonville, Florida, software company in 1991. Kmart was the first big-box American retailer to add the company’s self-checkouts to its stores in 2001, and in 2003, it took them out.

A few more rounds of acquisitions and asset relocations brought Humble’s original idea into IBM’s hands in 2003, where it still didn’t find mass adoption. IBM is not even currently the major player in the self-checkout game — that designation goes to Atlanta-based National Cash Register Corporation, which survived a few juicy bribery scandals and one brush with violating US sanctions in Syria, and today boasts that it produces nine out of every 10 self-checkouts in the UK. (Its FastLane system is probably most familiar to Americans as the go-to at Walmart and Home Depot.)

Fujitsu, a Japanese tech company acquired by Montreal-based Optimal Robotics in 2004, supplies the systems you’ll see in major grocery store chains like Kroger (the largest grocer in the US), Harris Teeter (a popular Kroger sub-brand in the South), and, before its demise in 2015, the major Northeastern chain Pathmark (formerly an off-shoot of ShopRite, owned by A&P).

Each time a projection for future adoption rates of self-checkouts is made, it is wrong. In 2006, the same year Target was telling press that it had no plans to experiment with self-checkouts, IHL Consulting Group predicted there would be 200,000 self-checkout lanes in operation by 2007. There were only 191,000 by 2013. Experts then predicted that number would rise to 325,000 by 2019, but by 2016 there were only 240,000 and numbers were revised again. Most recently, the BBC has predicted there will be 468,000 by 2021. We’ll see, but there are still less than 300,000 worldwide right now, and seemingly everyone hates them.

Meijer to handle number of clients in shops, momentarily drop weekly advertisement to curb coronavirus

GRAND RAPIDS, MI– Michigan-based Meijer has revealed new rules planned to keep consumers and workers safer throughout the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

Meijer on Saturday, April 4, revealed its new guidelines, among them being the request that clients restrict the variety of individuals accompanying them on their sees. Below are the current actions Meijer has carried out.

– Asking consumers to restrict the variety of consumers per trip, while understanding that some clients may require additional support.

– Implementing processes to monitor the number of consumers in our shops. This includes managing the variety of consumers shopping to support appropriate social distancing practices. The business did not reveal specifics of how it will handle customer numbers.

– Performing day-to-day health screenings and temperatures checks of team members as they get to the shop.

– Completing setup of protective plexiglass shields at all check lanes and pharmacies in its 248 supercenters and shops.

– Including signs and broadcast announcements inside the shop educating customers about proper social distancing.

– Briefly suspending the weekly sales ad starting April 12 to reduce customer count inside the shop.

” We continue to try to find additional ways to guarantee the safety of our customers and employee in the face of this challenging obstacle,” stated Rick Keyes, Meijer president and ceo. “By working together, we can lower the spread of this infection and aid keep our communities safe.”

These brand-new steps remain in addition to the previous actions Meijer has actually enacted, that include the following:

– Suspending using multiple-use bags by consumers in its stores unless they’re being used for the merchant’s Shop & Scan program.

– Terminating accepting drink containers for return at its Michigan stores.

– Temporarily eliminating Sandy the Pony from the front end of its shops.

– Positioning decals on the flooring 6 feet apart in areas where customers might gather, such as lines for check lanes, pharmacy and service desk counters.

– Suggesting consumers utilize the length of their shopping carts to gauge appropriate range from others where there aren’t decals on the flooring.

– Executing lowered shopping hours to support much deeper cleaning overnight and re-stocking effectiveness.

– Executing dedicated shopping hours for seniors, consumers with persistent health conditions, and vital service employees.

– Encouraging use of the “express pay” alternative through the Meijer pharmacy enhanced text messaging program, which provides a contactless experience when picking up most prescriptions.

Based in Grand Rapids, Meijer has 248 supercenters and supermarket throughout Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, and Kentucky.

In Michigan, necessary retailers like supermarket stay open throughout Gov. Gretchen Whitmer’s statewide “stay-at-home” order that’s in result through April 13.

Several other big sellers– amongst them Walmart, Target, House Depot, Lowe’s, and Costco– have announced similar practices and tenancy limitations to deal with coronavirus.

As of Friday, April 3, Michigan has actually had 12,744 confirmed coronavirus cases, 479 of which have resulted in death.

The Living Loving Rochester, NY Series – Article 5

Like the FB page @authorgiannifranco

What’s in Rochester, NY that is in the top five for being the longest? Oh, I can hear the jokes and comments through my laptop speakers. Keep it clean, people. Alright, keep it dirty. At number four is the Charlotte Pier, measuring 721 meters, which equals 2,366 feet, its original foundation laid in 1829. I used a list provided by Panethos.com to make the comparison, who ranked 116 piers by size in the US. Pronunciation Note: Rochesterians say, /SHar lot/

The beginning of the pier is a half mile away

The Port of Charlotte, originally known as the Port of the Genesee River, was a destination resort up until 1949, as well as a major international trade depot. Its popularity can be traced as far back as 1820, when it welcomed 316 ships. On June 14, 1869 Charlotte incorporated as a village in the town of Greece. It’s speculated that at this time the name changed to the Port of Charlotte.

On May 12, 1853 the Rochester – Lake Ontario Railroad began transporting goods and people to Charlotte. This railroad played a pivotal role in the development of Charlotte as a summer resort. It became an international hub catering to Canadians, who wanted to visit Rochester and then travel to New York City. Demand was high for Charlotte to expand further. The influx of wealth drove the openings of two yacht clubs: the Genesee Yacht Club (1874) and the Rochester Yacht (1877). The first electric trolleys opened in 1889, running from the City of Rochester to Charlotte. The main goal of trolley transportation was to fill Ontario Beach Park, which opened in 1884.

Charlotte introduced another attraction in 1905, the famous Dentzel Carousel, which attracted thousands of visitors, who waited in long lines to ride its handcrafted horses. The Ontario Ferry Company introduced four ferries starting in 1907 due to rising demand; the Ontario I, Ontario II, the Kingston, and the Toronto. The ferries further expanded the resort village and international trade.

By 1949, Rochester had given up on Charlotte and focused all its resources on the Genesee River, hoping to expand the already functioning flour mills. This created an influx of people moving to the City of Rochester and put the final nail in the coffin of the expanding resort area. Oddly enough, the politicians and business owners in the city made a grave error. They didn’t foresee the decline of the flour mills and suburbanization, which left the city desolate and forced companies to expand to the suburbs. Although Charlotte was a suburb at the time, its redevelopment fell wayside among battered sails.

Plumbing and HVAC Red Flags in a Home for Sale

What to watch out for when buying a house

What are the signs that there are plumbing and HVAC issues in a property for sale? (Photo Credits)

When buying a home it is important to be vigilant about the fixtures and features of the property one is buying to avoid possible accidents and additional expenses. Bringing in a licensed plumber to help in inspecting the plumbing fixtures of a home is definitely a must, since ordinary homeowners do not have a trained eye to spot potential plumbing issues. Plumbing Association of San Diego 

Third-Party Service Ratings Website Angie’s List came up with an article aiming to guide buyers into what to check prior to buying a new home. In their write-up they rounded up the top three most common plumbing problems present in a home for sale, and why buyers should be wary.

( Related Post: What to do when the HVAC fails to cool a room )

“One problem homeowners often neglect to have fixed is a leak at the base of a toilet. The leak often appears small or insignificant, but over time the water will begin to rot the subfloor and even get between the subfloor and the finished floor. Someone unaware of the damage this kind of problem can create, may try to seal this themselves, sometimes making it worse. Here are some toilet leak signs to look for: First, look for discoloration and/or warping around the base of the toilet. Second, check if the floor moves or feels soft around the base of the toilet by applying body weight with your foot. Finally, the toilet bowl should not have any movement.”

Read about the two other common plumbing problems they mentioned in their article here.

Addressing the Plumbing and HVAC issues

Once the plumbing issues have been detected, the website Faucet Depot encourages property buyers to settle the issues first before sealing the deal. In one of the articles they posted in their website, they mentioned that the plumbing concerns sought be brought to the table, so that the seller can do something about it. A/C And HVAC 

“While many homes come with a home warranty that will cover the various systems within the home for a specific period of time, you can still be out of pocket if the plumbing system is in disrepair and your home becomes damaged as a result. In most instances, you will find that repairs that need to be made will be made in order to get the home off the market. If you are a bit handy and have the time to do repair work yourself, you can also use the results from your home plumbing inspection to negotiate a lower price on the home to accommodate for the supplies and labor involved in correcting any problem points.”

The website Home Advisor meanwhile encouraged homeowners to check on HVAC issues as well because not doing so can set them back financially with several thousands of dollars. In their home inspection guide, they mentioned the possible cost of repairing home issues due to non-inspection prior to buying. Included in their list is the HVAC System.

“Heating and air-conditioning, including the water heater, should be checked to make sure not only that it’s functioning but that it is if adequate capacity for the house. A new furnace can cost between $1,700 to over $13,000 installed. There is no advantage to leaving an incorrectly sized unit on your house. If it’s too small, it will be running constantly. If it’s too large, it won’t stay on long enough to properly circulate the air, leaving you uncomfortable. If air conditioner or furnace parts are need, many such repairs can cost from $500 to $700. Parts can be hard to find on older units, and once parts like the heat exchanger start to go bad, it’s usually time to replace the unit.”
