Feds look to rename New York City’s Penn Station, potentially for Trump
In a letter sent Wednesday to Senate leadership on several committees, Duffy lists “administration priorities” for the federal rebuilding of the nation’s busiest rail hub.

Seems like some smoke is blowing into the area. Particle counts outside are going way up and it smells a little funny outside.

Oh, here's one of our docs for anyone in PNW. It's incomplete (also, from 2018):
Running list of disaster risks in the Pacific Northwest:
EARTHQUAKE (Three main faults - Cascadia, Seattle, )
PANDEMIC FLU (Global risk)
Especially high in Seattle compared to many other large US cities due to the high number of international flights and international organizations based in the Seattle.
STORMS
HEAT WAVES
Seattle lacks a familiarity with extreme heat. Less than half of people have air conditioning. Growing wealth inequity, homelessness, and addiction increases the risks posed by high temperatures.
VOLCANIC ERUPTION
Mount. Rainier.
WILDFIRES & WILDFIRE SMOKE
“Harvard University researchers, in collaboration with colleagues at Yale University, have created a watch list of hundreds of counties in the western United States at the highest risk of exposure to dangerous levels of pollution from wildfires in the coming decades. Among them, heavily populated counties such as San Francisco County, Calif., King County, Wash., Alameda County, Calif., and Contra Costa County, Calif., are projected to face the highest level of risk of wildfire smoke exposure in the coming decades.” [source]

Two small new prints from this afternoon, this time not Kallitype but contact printing on silver chloride FB paper, developed with Adox MCC. The increase in depth and detail is just wonderful and the feel of the final results an instant throwback to my early darkroom adventures ~40 years ago... 😍
The pictures are of two of my favorite places in recent years. Larger prints will be available for purchase in September.

The Speakers
This is a spoken word poem read on top of a vaguely hip-hop backing track posted on the "Twanger Central" section of the guitar-oriented discussion board www.tdpri.com by a player whose screen name is "cminor9." The poem was a morning poem (sometimes I wake up with some lines) that I didn't know what to do with. It fit here. "Speakers" is a synonym for "humans" in this context.

Playing around with an idea.
