The Flick -- A term used by air traffic controllers to describe a mental model representing the current and future positions of air traffic in a section of airspace. Controllers visualize the paths of multiple aircraft in terms of position, altitude, trajectory and speed. Controllers also refer to this as "having the picture." But the picture moves -- like a movie -- hence the term “the flick.”

Cut If You Must
It’s your own throat.
Labor Unions Fear Rollback of Rights if G.O.P. Wins
”So it should be no surprise that Republicans, who appear to stand a good chance of winning control of the House or the Senate, are signaling that they plan to push bills and strategies to undermine labor’s political clout and its ability to grow.”
I really don’t know which they consider more important -- killing labor’s political clout or eliminating unions from the workplace. In the end, it’s all the same to people that work for a living. Corporations win and workers lose.
Repeat after me, “Hi there! Welcome to Wal-Mart!”
