I don't think you have to update for previous years - TalossaWiki's version control will preserve previous versions of that page

I'll post some pictures too when I get the chance.

Azul! Although not a Maricopan, I have some suggestions for provincial landmarks. I am not sure what kinds of landmarks most interest you, so I will include a large number of them (with descriptions) for you all to sort through. I have sorted them by cantons. By the way, Chelsea Inthavong took some very nice photographs. The boat/bridge-looking structure is part of our Art Museum, in which we take great pride. It was designed by the Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava. I am afraid, however, that it actually lies within the borders of Maritiimi-Maxhestic. The other images are in M-M or Fiova. Some of the sculptures (not that which is dedicated to immigrant mothers) are temporary installations. That said, her work cataloging  landmarks in Talossa are much appreciated and they can still be put to use. Here, I will list potential landmarks in the canton of Taglheiria. I will do Zuerieiria, Sandadia, and Ovestia later.

Taglheiria (English: Schneideria): Taglheiria is the northernmost canton of Maricopa. Lying to the south of the Milwaukee River, it roughly corresponds to a neighborhood called East Village, which is part of Milwaukee's Lower East Side. Its southern boundary, Brady Street, is a commercial hub of the Lower East Side, lined with bars, cafes, restaurants, and other businesses. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the area that is now Taglheiria was a predominantly Polish American neighborhood, with some Italians (who mostly lived south of Brady Street) and, as in the rest of Milwaukee, Germans. The main industry was leather tanning, the factories of which still stand and have been converted to other purposes. The residents live in houses on stilts, as the area was wetland. In the 1960s and 70s, the area was an epicenter of counterculture. Today, Taglheiria is mainly residential with several businesses on various blocks and corners, as well as recreational park land.

*Pitch's (1801 N. Humboldt Ave.): A supper club is a traditional Upper Midwestern establishment where patrons can enjoy a night of hearty meals (especially steaks and fish fry) and cocktails (especially Wisconsin's own brandy old fashioned). Historically catering to the working class, supper clubs were designed to be relatively affordable, in comparison to fancier steakhouses. One such supper club is Pitch's. Pitch's has been in the Picciuro family since 1942. Their specialty is BBQ ribs. As a side note, from 2014 until his death earlier this year, owner Peter "Pitch" Picciuro was the boss of the Balistieri crime family.

*Peters, Weiland & Company Organbuilders (1729 N. Pulaski St.): This is an organ repair shop tucked away in a quiet corner of Maricopa. For more information, check out this link: https://er-emergency.com/786/

*Wolski's Tavern (1836 N. Pulaski St.): Operating continuously since 1908, Wolski's Tavern is a neighborhood favorite. Throughout Milwaukee and elsewhere (I saw one in Ecuador once), one can often see their famous " I closed Wolski's" stickers. From the website: "Wolski's Tavern was opened in 1908 by Bernard Wolski.  His three sons ran the bar for about sixty years. In 1973 Bernard's great-grandsons Michael and Bernard Bondar purchased it from their third cousin.  Their younger brother Dennis joined in once he turned 18. Michael retired, but Bernard and Dennis still own it today.
Wolski's is inconspicuously located on Milwaukee's lower east side.  We have a pool table, dart boards, free popcorn, and a covered patio.  We've become known for our "I Closed Wolski's" bumper stickers, which end up posted all over the world.  Stickers are earned, not purchased, and require a late night at the bar."


*Eagle Park Brewing Company (823 E. Hamilton St.): [will add description later]

*Tannery Row (along and near Water St. between Astor St. and Pearson St.): [will add description later]

*Marsupial Bridge (1737 N. Water St.): [will add description later]

*Saint Hedwig Church (1702 N. Humboldt Ave.): This Catholic church is the heart of the Three Holy Women Parish. From the website: "St Hedwig Church at 1702 N Humboldt Ave is an 1887 structure of Gothic and Romanesque styles. It replaced a much more modest wooden structure originally built on Franklin Place where Mass was first celebrated on October 17, 1871. It was erected for and by the Polish inhabitants of the city. An elementary school, grades 1-8, was part of this parish also. It flourished under the loving care of the School Sisters of Notre Dame. The present edifice stands in a recently revived community of homes and small businesses known as the Brady Street neighborhood."

Quote from: Miestră Schivă, UrN on May 19, 2024, 10:10:25 PMEstimat Túischac'h, I rise to deliver a question to the Seneschal.

Given that El Lexhatx D.1.5 states:

QuoteThe Seneschal shall maintain a public list of all of the positions described in Titles C[r 8] and D[r 7] of el Lexhatx along with any subordinate positions that might be created. The list shall include the incumbent of any filled position as well as indicate vacant positions. When the list is updated, the old version shall be publicly archived along with the dates for which it was effective.

And that the version of this list currently available on TalossaWiki is a whole Cosa term (and two Sensechais) out of date;

Has the Government set up a new "Seneschal's List" anywhere else which I am unaware of? I ask because the Opposition wanted to raise some accountability questions to the Cabinet but for some reason couldn't remember who they were.

Indeed this list was last updated in March 2023, and unless I'm wrong I don't see any "public archiving of the old versions" (apart for Government, which stopped in August 2019 (at the bottom of this page).

I can update for 2024, but not for the previous years.

In the meanwhile, you have a full detail of the Government here or here or also here
