Op de laatste dag van Maart zou de 193 318 van DB Cargo een intermodaal uit Brescia naar Nederland trekken. Aangezien de backbone een hoog genoteerde loc was op mijn lijstje wilde ik deze na mijn dag online school graag op foto zetten. Echter bleek de tweede backbone, de 193 365, ook 's middags naar Nederland te komen, en deze zou nog eerder uit Venlo vertrekken dan de 193 318.
DB Cargo 193 365 "I am the backbone of the economy" trekt hier samen met de 193 327 Unit Cargo 45750 uit Hagen Vorhalle naar Kijfhoek Noord en passeert hier om half zeven de twee fotograven. De 193 318, die driekwartier er achter zat, werd vanwege het avondeten maar even overgeslagen.

Hartz IV (officially called Arbeitslosengeld II until 2023) was Germany’s basic unemployment benefit for long‑term unemployed people. It provided a low fixed monthly payment plus housing costs for people who had no job or very little income. The system was known for strict rules and sanctions if recipients did not actively look for work.
In 2023, Hartz IV was replaced by the Bürgergeld, but the term “Hartz IV” is still widely used and strongly associated with poverty, unemployment, and social stigma in Germany.
If a political campaign poster promising a “strong economy” simply says “Hartz 4,” it is likely meant satirically or critically. The message could imply:
• The promised “strong economy” would actually lead to unemployment and poverty.
• The party’s economic policies might increase the number of people needing welfare.
• Or it mocks the idea that the only result of their policy would be more people dependent on state support.
So in satire, “Hartz 4” can symbolize economic failure, social inequality, or a lack of real opportunities.

......., weil sie es erst ermoeglicht haben, den wirtschaftlichen aufstieg von china.
sie bauten und bauen immer noch verschiedene gebaeude, ob klein , gross , hoch....!
hinzu kommen bauprojekte fuer die infrastruktur [ strassen usw.].
in der deutschen presse ist sehr oft zu lesen, sie bekommen einen hungerlohn fuer ihre arbeit und / oder der lohn wird einbehalten fuer ein jahr und vieles mehr !

Junto ao cais de Recreio do Rosário, em Gaio-Rosário (concelho da Moita), várias embarcações encontram-se amarradas na margem abrigada do estuário do Tejo, numa zona de sapal e águas pouco profundas. A presença de barcos de pequeno porte e de casco com pouco calado reflete a adaptação à hidrodinâmica local: marés amplas, fundos lodosos e canais que mudam com a sedimentação. Estes ancoradouros serviram durante décadas atividades ribeirinhas como a pesca artesanal, a apanha de bivalves e o apoio às antigas salinas da região, integrando uma economia ligada ao Tejo e às ligações fluviais com Lisboa e a Margem Norte. Hoje, a utilização recreativa convive com esse legado, num território relevante para a biodiversidade do estuário, onde a gestão de amarrações e acessos procura minimizar impactos nos habitats do sapal.
Near the Recreio do Rosário pier in Gaio-Rosário (municipality of Moita), several boats are moored on the sheltered bank of the Tagus estuary, in an area of marshland and shallow waters. The presence of small boats with shallow drafts reflects an adaptation to the local hydrodynamics: wide tides, muddy bottoms, and channels that shift with sedimentation. For decades, these anchorages served riverside activities such as artisanal fishing, shellfish gathering, and support for the region’s historic salt pans, forming part of an economy tied to the Tagus and its river connections to Lisbon and the North Bank. Today, recreational use coexists with this legacy in an area critical to the estuary’s biodiversity, where the management of moorings and access points seeks to minimize impacts on the marsh habitats.
Visually reminiscent of the Age of Rail, which had a positive impact on the economy of Hillsboro, the Katy Depot stands today in close proximity to the Missouri-Kansas-Texas Railroad lines as well as the Hill County Courthouse (National Register, 6/21/71), the focal point of the downtown commercial district. Hillsboro was established in 1853 to serve as the governmental seat and trade center for a basically agrarian county, cotton the primary crop. The completion of the MKT Railroad through Hillsboro in 1881 increased the commercial activity of the city and broadened its economic base. With locally raised funds, the citizens of Hillsboro purchased the right of way and property needed for a depot. Functional requirements dictated the size and massing of the structure which reflects architectural and decorative styles popular at the turn of the century, reminiscent of the Prairie style of architecture.
The Missouri-Kansas-Texas Railroad, commonly known as the Katy, was the first rail line to reach Hillsboro. Passenger service on the line, which connected Fort Worth and Temple, began on April 26, 1881, with four daily trains and a sleeper through to Chicago. The Katy Railroad brought a surge of economic activity to this agricultural region, becoming a major means of exporting cotton and livestock. As the economic base broadened, so did the population, which facilitated both residential and commercial expansion. Building materials were brought in by train and used to construct then contemporary structures. With the completion of the railroad several Katy buildings were constructed including: a frame station consisting of a waiting room, office, and a freight room; a cotton platform; and a section house. In 1894, Katy built division shops and a roundhouse in Hillsboro. The original station was converted to a freight house in 1902 and the present depot (seen in the photograph above) was erected on the land purchased by the city of Hillsboro. Throughout its operating years, the depot served as an integral part of the Hillsboro community. Among those visiting Hillsboro via the Katy were railroad tycoon Jay Gould, and Presidents Woodrow Wilson, William H. Taft, Calvin Coolidge, and Harry Truman. And, the depot served as the departure and arrival point for World War I and II soldiers serving their country.
On December 19, 1979, the Katy Depot (aka the Missouri-Kansas-Texas Company Railroad Depot) was added to the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) for its architecture, history, and being the location of historic events as described above. All of the information above was found on the original documents submitted for listing consideration which can be viewed here:
