The building is anchored by three towers, the tallest of which stands at 295 feet, making it the second tallest building in the city. The tallest being the historic Coral Gables Biltmore Hotel. The west tower is adorned with a 12-foot tall working weathervane that is an exact replica of the original “Lady of Faith” weathervane atop the Giralda Tower in Seville, Spain. The west tower also holds a carillon that plays nearly 2,000 hymns, bells, tolls, and classic chimes to mark the hour.
The moment you enter the Alhambra Towers lobby, you are enveloped in color and texture. The floor is imported stone tile from Italy and the Etruscan-styled alabaster chandeliers above are from Spain. There’s a large double fountain in the center of the room and elegant sculptures along the edges. The light shining through the original stained glass from a church that once stood on the property, recycled into the design of the room, exudes a warm, somewhat ethereal glow.
In honor of the city’s first post office, which inhabited the site before the church, Allen Morris brought in original restored brass mailboxes and a 1920’s letter dropbox from the historic McGraw Hill building in Chicago. There’s also an antique shoeshine stand and an old-fashioned telephone.
On display in the lobby are several one-of-a-kind paintings by Carlos and Guillermo Arriola that pay homage to the Spanish cathedrals that ultimately influenced the building’s design and architecture.
There’s no other word for the art and architecture of Alhambra Towers other than extraordinary!

One Thousand Museum by Zaha Hadid Architects is a high-rise residential condominium under construction in Miami, Florida, U.S.A. The deep foundation required drilling to record depths of over 170 feet (52 m). The 62-story building is expected to rise over 700 feet (210 m) when completed in 2018, making it one of the tallest buildings in Miami. The depths of two auger-cast piles broke a record for Miami-Dade County that had recently been set by the Porsche Design Tower in Sunny Isles Beach. The building, which is located at 1000 Biscayne Boulevard, across from Museum Park, was designed by Pritzker Prize-winning architect Zaha Hadid. The exotic design of the building features a curving exoskeleton partially obscuring the balconies that also serves structural purposes, allowing the interior space to have fewer columns. The effect of the design and height on wind loading is part of the reason the foundation had to be exceptionally deep. The building is considered ultra-luxury, containing about 83 large units priced at about double the cost per square foot of nearby condominium towers, with amenities possibly including a rooftop helipad.

The dictionary was published in 2008, a little early to provide a definitive opinion on whether V can be added to APED to make VAPED.

A lady participating, was kind enough to explain to me, though I may have garbled some details:
To the left of the picture is what she called a stick, that is rattled after you pose a question, and this then tells you which drawer to take your answer from. The lady on the right is just getting hers.
After reading the answer, the answer is either tied to a wire frame (picture here) or burned (picture here).
I'm lucky that smarter builders than I have already solved some of these tricky problems with similar (and in one case identical) prototypes. What you see here are Andrew Harvey's splendid A1 Peppercorn pacific (Tornado in its grey primer) and Carl Greatrix's sublime LNER A4 Gresley pacific. Each of these models were scaled and mapped as best as possible to my stud scale for comparison purposes.
Observations:
1) The tenders for both locomotives are quite similar and superbly rendered by both Andrew and Carl--almost dead accurate to scale.
2) Spacing the main drivers to 5s spacing forces a compression in the overall length of the locomotive to maintain proportions. Despite compression, both locomotives still look spot on.
I'm worried that adherence to scale and therefore adopting 6s spacing on the XL drivers will not "look right"? I'm lucky that they are black wheels against black frames--this helps "disguise" the undersize nature of the drivers. I'd love to see a pacific wheel arrangement with BBB XL drivers with 6s driver spacing--I'm guessing it would still look ok?

Without consulting me, my wife decided on a change of routine. From now on every afternoon until bed time I must be laced tightly into my corset and submit to being heavily petticoated, before being fastened into the Victorian style gown and apron that she had bought for me. I do not know for how long this arduous routine will continue.
