Sbarro's in Union Station seems that it will be replaced with something else. Does anyone know what is going on?
I've noticed that most people visiting DC for July 4th this year are MAGA.
What do you think?
Any RIT dining locations open today or tomorrow?
rit.eduDoes LA Union Station still have the leather seats?
I was reading more about the station, but I can't find any recent pictures/videos of the seating area

youtube.comI just finished training. My SPE expects me to have SPE-level knowledge already.
Every time I don't get something right away the first time, he barks at me. Additionally, when he would return my first office action, he told me to fix the issues and submit it back right away for credit. Therefore, I never thought to ask him or other team members for verification before re-submitting the first few times.
Can anyone else relate? I found that breaking down the claims by limitation really helped me, though I always seem to be missing some procedural requirement before re-submitting.
Los Angeles Union Station has less Amtrak service than even Baltimore, MD
en.wikipedia.orgIf a co-worker tells me "my suggestion is not to put yourself on the director's radar ever", this would not be a good place to work at, correct?
The issue is that I started a new job that pays well, but my immediate supervisor seems very critical over even minor details. I also realized that he could have given more guidance in certain aspects.
Edit: Five upvotes in three minutes tells me a lot

>One early visitor, James Morrison, gave this account based on observations between 1789 and i79iThey have a set of men called Mahoo [mahu]. These men are in some respects like the Eunichs [sic] in India but are not castrated. They never cohabit with women but live as they do. They pick their beards out and dress as women, dance and sing with them and are as effeminate in their voice. They are generally excellent hands at making and painting of cloth, making mats and every other women's employment. They are esteemed valuable friends in that way.
I just saw this on a silver line subway... Spring 2018??
Today, I saw an American rarity... the Auto Train in Virginia.
imgur.comThe Fairfax bus system is so strange.
Sometimes, when riding, the bus changes number at a stop out of nowhere. This caused me to be stuck at a stop for 20 mins.
Another issue is when both northbound and southbound routes come to the same stop.

meldonlaw.comI want to live near Union Station, but my credit score isn't high enough for most apartments due to limited work history. However, I recently started a high-paying job as a patent examiner. Any suggestions?
This is because I am a railfan, and want to commute to USPTO and back every day using Amtrak. Union Station also is a very nice place to shop and dine.
How do I correct the birthdate for an individual in online Authority Control databases?
I am technically not a librarian, but I enjoy doing history research in various areas for fun. Recently, I was reading about Harry Sinclair Drago, a Western writer, and saw these ID records for him: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harry_Sinclair_Drago#External_links
Almost all of these databases list his birth year as 1888. However, the earliest records of his life list the year as 1886:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harry_Sinclair_Drago#Early_life_and_journalism_career
Apparently, from the late 19th-early 20th century, many people could get away with slightly moving their birth years forward so people would think they were younger. This would be why many usually-reliable sources list his birthdate as 1888. I think the 1886 year makes the most sense since these records are the oldest. However, how can the birth year be fixed in all the databases?

Who attended RIT as a student for the longest consecutively?
Consecutive means that the person in the fall and spring semesters is either enrolled in class, registered for a co-op, or on leave of absence. I won't count summer.
Graduate study also would count for this. I know one person who got everything from BS-PhD in 11 years. Also, I know one person who is entering his eighth year as an undergrad (repeated major-switching and some co-ops), and another who did eight years of BS, minor, MS, and co-ops.
