# Livingston station (Staten Island Railway)

The Livingston station is a former station on the abandoned North Shore Branch of the Staten Island Railway. Located north of Richmond Terrace at Bard Avenue in the Livingston section of Staten Island, it had two tracks and two side platforms. The site is 1.8 miles (2.9 km) from the Saint George terminal. Closed in 1953, the station was demolished, with few remnants of the site today.

## History

The station opened on February 23, 1886 along with the other North Shore stations from St. George west to Elm Park. It sits on land formerly occupied by the mansion of Livingston namesake Anson Livingston, also known as the "Bleak House," which was purchased by the North Shore Railroad in 1886. The town name "Livingston" was coined by SIRT officials. The station was located on a wooden trestle on the shore of the Kill Van Kull on the edge of the island, built with two wooden high-level side platforms. The former mansion was used as the stationhouse, with an overpass between the platforms on the west end of the station. Industrial buildings were located adjacent to the station, including a power plant of the Richmond Light and Railroad Company, which operated a streetcar line along Richmond Terrace parallel to the SIRT until 1934.
The station was abandoned on March 31, 1953, along with the South Beach Branch and the rest of the North Shore Branch. Currently, the station site is occupied by an employee parking lot for the Con Edison facility located across the street. Just east of the site is a restaurant, R.H. Tugs, which sits adjacent to the tracks. The restaurant closed in August 2011 after 25 years of operation, reopening as Blue Restaurant. The northern of the line's two tracks has been taken up, and due to coastal erosion of the line's retaining wall, part of the trestle has slid into the Kill Van Kull along with some of the trackage east and west of here. Livingston is one of the stations to be returned to operation under the proposals for reactivation of the North Shore branch for rapid transit, light rail, or bus rapid transit service. Under the proposal, the right-of-way would be moved from the coastline to the parking lot site.

# Sechsämtertropfen

Sechsämtertropfen is a liqueur produced in Germany.
The liqueur has an alcohol content of 33% vol. It gets its taste from extracts of medicinal plants, berries and roots. The rowan berry, the fruit of the rowan, plays a special role in this. Sechsämtertropfen is also produced in other flavours such as wild berry, hazelnut and plum.
The liqueur comes from the Bavarian Fichtel Mountains and was invented by the pharmacist Gottlieb Vetter and first sold in 1895. The name of the drink refers to the six historical administrative districts around the town of Wunsiedel - the Sechsämterland. Peter Vetter from Wunsiedel: formerly Managing Director of Landgraf Spirituosen- und Getränke-Vertriebs-GmbH, died mid August 2019. Since 2001, the spirits have been sold by Schwarze & Schlichte in Oelde.
The coats of arms of these six offices adorn the bottles of the Sechsämtertropfen:
* Kirchenlamitz
* Weißenstadt
* Thierstein
* Wunsiedel
* Selb
* Hohenberg an der Eger

## Biography

Bonnier first studied at École Normale Supérieure in Paris from 1873 to 1876. Together with Charles Flahault, he studied at Uppsala University in 1878. They published two articles about their impressions:
* Observations sur la flore cryptogamique de la Scandinavie

He became assistant professor, later full professor, of botany at Sorbonne in 1887 and, in addition, he founded a Plant Biological Laboratory in Fontainebleau in 1889. The same year, he co-founded the scientific journal Revue Générale de Botanique, which he edited until 1922. He was an early exponent of experimental plant ecology. He transplanted alpine plants between the Alps and Pyrenees and the research garden in Fontainebleau. The results were published in:
* Cultures expérimentales dans les Alpes et les Pyrénées. Revue Générale de Botanique 2 (1890): 513–546.
* Les plantes arctiques comparées aux mêmes espèces des Alpes et des Pyrénées (1894).
* Nouvelles observations sur les cultures expérimentales à diverses altitudes et cultures par semis. Revue Générale de Botanique 22 (1920): 305–326.
He authored several floras of France, such as
* Nouvelle flore du Nord de la France et de la Belgique pour la détermination facile des plantes sans mots techniques. Vol. I. Tableaux synoptiques des plantes vasculaires de la flore de la France. P. Dupont, Paris, 1894 (With Georges de Layens (1834–1897)).

# Joukahainen

Joukahainen (Finnish pronunciation:) is a character in the Kalevala, the Finnish epic poem. He is a rival of the main character, Väinämöinen.

## Description

After clashing with their horses and challenging Väinämöinen to a fight, they engage in a battle of song. He loses and is magically sung into being swallowed by a mire. In his plea for help from Väinämöinen, he pledges his sister Aino to him. But she objects to Väinämöinen, and rather than marrying him she drowns herself. Joukahainen is enraged by all that has taken place and even though his mother tries to stop him, he ambushes Väinämöinen with his crossbow. Joukahainen misses Väinämöinen but hits and kills his horse from under him, making him plunge into the icy waters of Pohjola.
In the original translation into English (by John Martin Crawford (1888)) this character's name was Anglicised as Youkahainen.

## Population

## History

In the 1960s, faced by the fast development of Paris and its suburbs, it was decided to control and balance it by creating several new cities around Paris.
To the north, the choice was made on the surroundings of Pontoise. The old city was to be integrated in a much larger unit, whose center would be Cergy, at the time not more than a village. From 1965, the establishment of the new city was to be done in several stages:
* April 16, 1969: creation of the publicly owned "Établissement public d'aménagement" (EPA)
* 1971: creation of the Syndicat communautaire d'aménagement (SCA).
* August 11, 1972: official creation of the new city of Cergy-Pontoise, gathering fifteen communes (the eleven current ones, and Boisemont, Boissy-l'Aillerie, Méry-sur-Oise and Pierrelaye).
* 1983: the law Rocard amended the new cities.
* 1984: Syndicat d'agglomération nouvelle (SAN) replaces the SCA, four communes left the structure (the four mentioned above)
* December 31, 2002: end of the mission and dissolution of the EPA, following the completion of the new city.
* January 1, 2004: transformation of the SAN into a communauté d'agglomération.
* 2004: Boisemont becomes the 12th commune of Cergy-Pontoise.

## Public transport

Bus services are provided by the Stivo (formerly StAN).
Rail services are provided by both the SNCF and the RATP. Two RER lines begin within the new town.

## Economy

Subaru France and Bandai France have their head office in Cergy Pontoise.

## Media appearances

* L'enfance d'une ville, a 1975 movie by Eric Rohmer
* I as in Icarus, a 1979 movie by Henri Verneuil
* Boyfriends and Girlfriends, a 1987 movie by Eric Rohmer
* Water Lilies, a 2007 movie by Céline Sciamma

## Twinnings

Cergy-Pontoise is a sister city to the planned cities of
* Columbia, Maryland, United States
* Tres Cantos, Spain
* Erkrath, Germany
* West Lancashire, England (Which includes the planned town of Skelmersdale.)
