The Terminal

The Cincinnati Museum The Cincinnati Museum was built in 1933, originally as the Cincinnati Union Terminal (a train terminal). This terminal was a passenger station in the Queensgate neighborhood of Cincinnati. In the late 19th and 20th centuries, Cincinnati, Ohio was a bustling metropolitan area - a hub for transportation and activity. Goods and supplies were shipped in and out of the city everyday. Because of the city’s central location in the continental United States, Cincinnati became an…

Is assisted suicide people’s right or a mistake (wrong)? Assisted suicide is the act of deliberately assisting another person to kill themselves to relieve suffering. As proof, if a relative of a person with a terminal illness were to obtain powerful sedatives, knowing that the person intended to take an overdose of sedatives to kill themselves, it is considered an assisting suicide. Therefore, people should be given the right of assisted suicide in order to end their pain and suffering, avoid…

emerged. Advances in logistics in the last decades gave a new meaning to the temporary storage on terminals. According to Kek Choo Chung (1993), “Instead of using the stacking area as a facilitator for a smooth synchronization between transport modes, shippers and logistics service providers started to use terminals as places for cheap storage of consignments. This change in the functional use of terminals implied that high dwell times at container yards were no longer an indication of a poor…

of Grand Central Terminal in the way that it is convenient for the commuters and the tourists. I just found that Rockefeller Center is more above ground while Grand Central Terminal is more below ground. When I think of Rockefeller center, I think of The Rink and many of the shops and buildings that are above ground. Rockefeller Center does have convenience when it comes to getting to your destination below ground but only the subway passes through; unlike Grand Central Terminal that has the…

the battery’s positive and negative terminals. The positive terminal should have a red cover or can be signified by a + sign. Making sure none of the clamps touch one another, attach the red clamp to the dead battery’s positive terminal. Do not attach the black clamp to the battery’s negative terminal as it could cause hazardous sparks. Attach the other red clamp to the charged battery’s positive terminal, and then attach the black clamp to its negative terminal. Now you want to attach the other…

Raindrops break the speed limit Did you know that raindrops have speed limits of their own? Raindrops that are larger than 0.5 millimeters when going across fall with a terminal velocity of several meters per second, while smaller drops fall slower with a terminal velocity of less than one meter per second. Terminal Velocity is when friction cancels the downward pull of gravity. This means that the raindrops speed up and keep falling at a steady pace. Michael Larsen, an atmospheric…

In an effort to push for continued efficiencies for everyone involved with the shipping of sand into the LGE Terminal in Carr, Colorado (“the Terminal”), I’m writing to request that Union Pacific (“UP”) approve delivery of 100 car unit trains into the Terminal. Attached hereto is an operational plan which describes the physical car exchange with the Terminal track and a present-day map showing the track layout. Please note that at no time will the pick up or drop off of cars involve the…

Analysis of terminal long count dates from stone monuments in the Maya Lowlands has played a Significant role in characterizing the collapse of polities during the Terminal Classic period. The main focus in this article is based on addressing the idea that a directional abandonment of large political centers occured during the Maya collapse. In the article the authors focus on looking at the spatial and temporal pattern of abandonment of writing on carved monuments as a way of understanding the…

Imagine knowing that in just a few months a loved one will die of a terminal illness. Imagine discovering that, although it was possible to stop their suffering in an easy and painless way, doctors are refusing them this right, and forcing them to live the rest of their days in pain. This event, unfortunately, is a current problem all around the world, and a constant debate. This event is the use of euthanasia. While some people believe that euthanasia is unethical, people who are terminally ill…
