Hey @JCP_L what’s the scoop on power restoration today? No updates, nothing. It’s infuriating. 11pm came and went and no new info? We get that there was a lot of damage but customer service IS a thing.

Hey @wcbs880, just an FYI, Veterans Day is Saturday, Nov. 11 and observed on Friday, Nov. 10.
I am a big fan of veterans and I worry that the misreporting will cause confusion.

The ocean’s depths are divided into zones, and the light and pressure in each one determines what kind of life can survive there. The remains of the Titanic sit in the dark bathypelagic, or midnight zone, at a spot 12,400 feet below the ocean’s surface. The pressure around the famous sunken ship is about 375 atmospheres—that means every square inch of an object’s surface experiences the equivalent of 5,500 pounds of force.

🎥 Celebrating Vera Rubin, whose work on dark matter changed our understanding of the universe.
Though she was denied a Nobel, her legacy lives on in the Vera Rubin Observatory and the generations of researchers she inspired.

It was a challenge to re-create arguably the most iconic movie prop of all time, the childhood sled of Citizen Cane. Art Director @goecke had the brilliant idea to also fold in the snow globe which was part of that iconic revealing scene.
