The 1958 Scarab Mk II, one of 3 legendary vehicles built by Lance Reventlow, who at age 21, and also the heir to the Woolworth fortune, sought to challenge European dominance with American innovation and Chevrolet V8 power
This Mk II Scarab, is the second of 3 Chevy small block front engined racers, and the one that actually won the US Grand Prix in Riverside, California, against a gaggle of the biggest and best from Europe, including Phill Hill in his monster Ferrari 412S.
The Scarabs absolutely dominated American Racing through 1962, and continued to be successfully raced for several more years. But for the late 50s rule change in European Formula 1 racing limiting the engine size to 3 liters, Lance could never fulfill his dream (shared with Briggs Cunningham) of conquering European road racing with Yankee ingenuity.

And still considered by many to be the most beautiful sports car racer of it's era. And I am with them.

The Industrial Revolution bought lots of innovation to many sectors. The large steam driven flywheels, traction engines and trains have given way to electrified trains and then individual cars. The size of components have shrunk and hopefully, with modern electric cars fewer components and greater efficiency promises.
During the various stages of the Industrial Revolution there were people who severely resisted change. We are in another moment at this time both politically and socially. Unfortunately, nostalgia may not help meet the challenges ahead. History, though can bring interesting perspectives.
The photo is a montage of a model train & railway and various flywheels used. HMMM
A great definition of "innovation" is "significant, positive change." This is a beautiful produce farm in Mt. Hope, OH. Part of the farm had beautiful purple cabbage growing in long rows like these.

So, I have been trying to get a picture of this signage which is a dreadful cliche: "Where ideas and innovation come to life" and as I was struggling with the camera and the sun, my capture was... Photobombed!
The most interesting thing in the picture!!

This "LED" Water Tower Christmas Tree may not look special, but it's truly an innovative piece of technology developed by the City of Manor. It has a mechanical winch inside of the pedestal that raises and lowers the lights so city employees can make adjustments without the need of a lift-truck. This is yet another example of the power of innovation on a shoestring budget.

feel the rain on your skin!
no one else can feel it for you
only you can let it in
no one else, no one else
can speak the words on your lips
drench yourself in words unspoken
live your life with arms wide open
today is where your book begins
the rest is still unwritten...

Looks like Zeiss AG has completed the new campus for its innovation center in our area during COVID. If I am apply a job there, would I get employee discount??

Park Street Avenue is a shortcut between Park Street on the left and Park Row on the right, and is one I've taken many times over the last fifty years.

The inaugural ITT Hub trade show took place in Farnborough over 2 days at the end of June 2021. Promoting "Innovation & Technology in Transport", the show featured many trucks, vans and around 45 buses, coaches and minibuses, most of which were located in an area next to the main cavernous hall.
Exhibitors from the bus industry included ADL, Altas Auto, BYD, Caetanobus, Dawsongroup, EVM, Harris, Ilesbus, Iveco, Mercedes-Benz, Switch (Optare), Wright Bus, and Pelican Yutong.
The next ITT Hub event is scheduled for May 11th/12th 2022.

Platform 6 at Purley station has recently gained three posters celebrating people who had local connections to Purley and Croydon. The posters are titled 'Welcome to Purley, Croydon', 'Innovate' and 'Inspire' and celebrate Amy Johnson, Samuel Coleride-Taylor and William Jessop.
The artworks were commissioned by Purley Business Improvement District and were made by local artists Kevin Zuchowski-Morrison, Dan Cimmermann and Morgan Davy.
Amy Johnson achieved worldwide recognition when, on 5th May 1930, she became the first woman to fly solo from the now closed Croydon Airport to Australia. Flying G-AAAH Jason, she landed at Darwin, Northern Territory on 24 May.
The composer Samuel Coleridge-Taylor was brought up in Croydon. He studied at the Royal College of Music. After completing his degree, Taylor became a professional musician, soon being appointed a professor at the Crystal Palace School of Music; and conducting the orchestra at the Croydon Conservatoire.
In 1801 Civil Engineer William Jessop was appointed Chief Engineer of the horse drawn Surrey Iron Railway from Wandsworth to Croydon. In 1803 the next phase of tramway was authorised south from Croydon towards Merstham and Godstone. Jessop was again appointed Chief Engineer. The line reached Mestham but was never continued to Godstone.

BIDSTON LIGHTHOUSE WAS BUILT 2 MILES FROM THE SHORE, AND IS THE FURTHEST INLAND LIGHTHOUSE BUILT IN BRITAIN.
THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE PORT OF LIVERPOOL OWES MUCH TO THE GEOGRAPHICAL SITUATION OF BIDSTON HILL. SHIPS APPROACHING THE MERSEY ESTUARY HAD TO NEGOTIATE NARROW CHANNELS BETWEEN SHIFTING SAND BANKS IN 1763, A PAIR OF LIGHTHOUSES WAS CONSTRUCTED AT MOCKBEGGAR WHARF. THE MOCKBEGGAR LIGHTS, OR “SEA LIGHTS”, WERE LEADING LIGHTS THAT MARKED THE SAFE PASSAGE THROUGH THE MERSEY ESTUARY CHANNEL.
AT THE SAME TIME, WILLIAM HUTCHISON, THEN LIVERPOOL HARBOUR MASTER AND A FORMER PRIVATEER, WAS EXPERIMENTING AT THE SIGNALS STATION ON BIDSTON HILL. HE WAS ABLE TO BOOST THE VISIBILITY OF A LAMP TO UNPRECEDENTED DISTANCES BY PLACING IT AT THE FOCUS OF A PARABOLIC REFLECTOR.
WHEN IN 1769 THE LOWER LIGHTHOUSE AT MOCKBEGGAR WHARF COLLAPSED INTO THE SEA, INSTEAD OF BUILDING ANOTHER LIGHTHOUSE IN THE SAME PLACE (AND RISK IT BEING WASHED AWAY), IT WAS DECIDED TO BUILD A NEW LIGHTHOUSE FURTHER BACK IN THE SAME ALIGNMENT. BIDSTON HILL PROVIDED THE RIGHT LOCATION. BEING IN LINE WITH THE HORSE CHANNEL AND THE REMAINING MOCKBEGGAR LIGHT AT LEASOWE, A NEW LIGHTHOUSE BY THE SIGNALS STATION COULD TAKE OVER AS THE REAR SEA LIGHT. ITS ELEVATED SITUATION MEANT THAT A SMALLER, AND CHEAPER, TOWER COULD BE BUILT, AWAY FROM THE RAVAGES OF THE SEA. AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, HUTCHINSON’S INVENTION MEANT THAT THE LIGHT WOULD BE VISIBLE AT A DISTANCE OF 21 MILES.
THE FIRST BIDSTON LIGHTHOUSE WAS BUILT IN 1771. IT HAD AN OCTAGONAL TOWER, AND FEATURED ONE OF HUTCHINSON’S PARABOLIC REFLECTORS, 13’6″ IN DIAMETER.
AFTER THE ORIGINAL LIGHTHOUSE WAS DAMAGED BY FIRE IN 1868, THE MERSEY DOCKS AND HARBOUR CORPORATION COMMISSIONED A NEW BUILDING TO CONTINUE THE FUNCTIONS OF BOTH THE LIGHTHOUSE AND SIGNALS STATION. THE PRESENT LIGHTHOUSE AND COTTAGES WERE COMPLETED IN 1873, AT A BUDGET OF £970 FOR THE TOWER, £1475 FOR KEEPERS’ ACCOMMODATION, £1600 FOR THE LAMP, AND £250 FOR THE PANORAMIC GLAZING. THE COTTAGES PROVIDED AMPLE ACCOMMODATION FOR THREE KEEPERS (TWO WITH FAMILIES), AND WERE CONNECTED TO EACH OTHER AND TO THE LIGHTHOUSE THROUGH A COMMON HALLWAY, SO THAT EVERY KEEPER HAD ACCESS TO THE LIGHTHOUSE WITHOUT LEAVING THE BUILDING, AND EACH HAD HIS OWN PORCH AND FRONT DOOR. THE HALLWAY WAS LINED WITH RUABON TILES, AND FEATURED SKYLIGHTS ALONG ITS LONG (NORTH-SOUTH) AXIS.
INNOVATIONS IN COMMUNICATIONS (NOTABLY THE ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH) AND NAVIGATION (NOTABLY NAVIGATIONAL BUOYS) EVENTUALLY MADE THE LIGHTHOUSE OBSOLETE, AND IT FINALLY CEASED OPERATION IN 1913.

Now THIS is a bike rack. A little roof to park your seat under in case it rains. Fantastic.
There are so many different bike racks here in Copenhagen, some with ways to cover the seat, but this is just cool.
