Power outage not reported until I arrived home late in day---For some reason others who lost power did not report it when the transformer blew, earlier in day.
Buses replace trains for the 20 miles of route between Three Bridges and Brighton. This is for engineering works but are they really working on the entire 20 mile stretch of track and if not, what aren't the trains running apart from where they are actually working?
It is important to have a trusted auto shop to replace brakes for your car,to insure quality and well picked brakes.
The 360 Modena replaced the F355 as Ferrari's entry-level model in 1999. Initially available as a Coupé, the 360 Modena was joined as a Cabriolet in the form of the 360 Spider.
Either version looks like a true Ferrari sports car with a low, short, and wide body enclosing a mid-mounted 3,6-litre V8 with 400 PS and driving the rear wheels. The range was expanded in 2003 with the addition of the Challenge Stradale, a track ready tool with increased power (425 PS) and available in limited supply. The 360 was replaced by the outrageously styled F430 in 2005.

Built in 1930-31, this Gothic Revival-style church was designed by John Russell Pope and Charles I. Barber to replace the previous Church Street United Methodist Church, which had burned in 1928. The congregation, which was founded in 1816, was located in several previous church buildings before the present building was constructed. The first church, built in 1816, was a simple frame building, which was subsequently replaced with a brick structure on West Church Street in 1836, which was utilized as a hospital and stables during the Civil War, and was commandeered by the US Army between 1866 and 1873. Following the church regaining the ownership of the property, a new Gothic Revival-style brick church was built on the site in 1875-1878, which was destroyed by fire in 1928.
The present building was built on a new site purchased by the congregation following the destruction of the previous church. The building features a Crab Orchard Sandstone exterior laid in a fieldstone pattern, with a large central sanctuary featuring a gabled roof, gothic arched stained glass windows with decorative trim, shallow pilasters, gable parapets at either end, low transepts, and a large asymmetrical tower with an open belfry, buttresses at the corners, a gothic arched entry portal, a tall spire at the southeast corner, and a crenellated parapet. The sanctuary is flanked by two wings, one of which dates to 1930-31, and the other constructed in 2017-19, which have covered breezeways with gothic arched openings, the same stone on the exterior facades, and cloisters between the wings and the sanctuary, with the wings featuring gabled roofs, the original wing featuring buttresses and an oriel window clad in stone, and the newer wing being smaller, with an entrance off the parking lot on the lower level, and architecture that mimics but does not exactly match the other wing, helping add to the picturesque romantic asymmetry of the church’s exterior composition. The interior of the church features a high nave with lower aisles, plaster walls, a carved wooden ceiling with decorative Gothic Revival-style tracery, stone trim, a wooden altar and a wooden organ loft, and stained glass windows manufactured by Charles J. Connick between 1941 and 1956. To the rear of the church is a series of wings that house additional space for the congregation, with the educational building, built in 1964, being Tudor Revival style, and the other wing, built in 1986-89, being the Church Life Building, a more modern wing that is a contemporary interpretation of the historic church’s exterior, and houses a gymnasium and features an asymmetrical shed roof with several gabled roof sections and eclectically sized and placed window openings.
The church was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2009, and continues to serve as the home of the Church Street United Methodist Church congregation.
In our new house (only 30 years old) in Japan, the kitchen has hideous wallpaper that only its designer could love. We plan to replace the wallpaper when the time is right...
We prepared the site plan and obtained the building permit. We handled all necessary inspections. We removed the existing concrete driveway. We removed all debris from the premises. We compacted all soil. We poured the new driveway with 4000 PSI concrete with fibermesh reinforcement. We hand troweled the concrete with a double broom finish. We cut all expansion joints accordingly.
Today is Kellen's first full day home from the hospital, and he is doing excellent as is mom. Except for a couple of local things around town here and there, Chase and I are on break from railfanning for a couple of weeks. We will be back at it Memorial Day weekend with a trip to Indiana planned and hope to come back with tons of new pics. Take care everybody and thanks again to those who kept our family in your thoughts this past week!!!

Place Replaced Assignment: Constructed, praised
My photo shrine.
Because the darkroom has become my home
Because of long processes
This, to this, to this
Place, film, print
Because ideas revolved, growing too fast
Because it was the first thing I liked
And they chose me
Because the silver grabbed their light
Because abandoning you gave me time
But I left it in a room with no space
Because the blocks didn’t keep me grounded
Because the candles will sink with the fallen petals
And the wind will break the balance
Because she didn’t let the wax burn her finger
Because I spilled it with fire and smoke
Because bokeh sounded interesting
And the fangs of the beast didn’t shine
Because it didn’t work
Concrete distances
Because I did all of this
Because he was cool, with mutual blacks and whites
Because she looked like a bird
I surrendered
And that makes me angry
Because they will all curve in the end
Because shattering glass became this habit
Because I couldn’t write enough each day
Because I’m not good with poems
Image 10 of 10 - Removing port Z-drive (a type of azimuth thruster) from riverboat "American Melody" before replacing it, Louisville, Kentucky, Ohio River mile 604, July 11, 2025
Closeup of the second (trailing) propeller. It's nice and clean for now, but soon it will meet that sweet brown water.
The boat is owned by American Cruise Lines, Guilford, Connecticut, which offers "small ship" cruises on the Mississippi River system, Columbia and Snake Rivers, and the waters of New England, Puget Sound, Alaska and the southeast U.S.
I was told that the boat will be offering cruises on the Ohio River between Louisville and Pittsburgh through early fall, then move to the lower Mississippi River.
The port Z-drive is not functioning correctly so it is being removed from the stern of "American Melody" before being replaced with a new one. It is a Veth Z-drive with counter-rotating (CR) propellers. Z-drives have also been referred to as rudder propellers since the direction of thrust is controlled by slewing the propellers themselves rather than using separate rudder(s) to deflect the thrust of a fixed propeller. Some Z-drives are ducted, with nozzles surrounding the propellers, but this one is open.
Veth Propulsion is a Dutch propulsion manufacturer, now part of Twin Disc, Inc.
From "Veth Rudder Propellers" (PDF):
"Operation: The CR unit consists of two propellers rotating in opposite directions relative to each other, wherein the second propeller removes the whirling of the water caused by the first propeller. This results in minimal rotational losses with optimal efficiency from the available power and propeller diameters.
Low noise: The counter-rotating propellers give a new dimension to efficient and low-noise propulsion. Because the optimum engine speed is more than 20% lower in contra-rotating propellers than in a single-propeller or in which two propellers rotate in the same direction, there is also an extremely low noise level. Also, the low blade load and the reduced turbulence in the water contribute to lower vibration and noise production.
Benefits: In contrast to other suppliers, Veth Propulsion offers a CR solution in which the propeller is mounted on two sides of the tail unit. This has a number of advantages:
- The peripheral speed of the shaft seals is half that of systems with two propellers on one side, in that a shaft does not rotate inside another shaft.
- Two separate (solid) shafts are each loaded between 45 - 55% of the output power
- A durable bearing and seal are thus created, compared with two propellers on one side
- By making use of a four-blade and a five-blade propeller, the power is distributed over nine blades
- Less time in dock during dismantling. Seals remain in position when the propeller is removed and oil change is not necessary
- At an equal propeller diameter, an efficiency gain of 15 to 20% is achieved compared to a single propeller"

I cannot find engine specs for this boat, but her sister boat "American Song" is propelled by two "ultra-low-sulfur" Caterpillar diesel engines connected to Twin Disc Veth Propulsion Z-drives (Model VZ-1250A-CR) which can be rotated 360 degrees. Power output is 1,350 kilowatts (1810 horsepower) at 1,600 RPM. Extra maneuverability is provided by two Veth Propulsion tunnel thrusters (Model VT-400) producing 400 kilowatts (540 horsepower) at 1,500 RPM.

Inside the future home of the New Museum of London
New Museum of London, West Smithfield
Sir Horace Jones (1883) and T P Bennett and Son (1963) New Museum of London scheme: Stanton Williams Architects Asif Khan Julian and Harrap Architects
In 2016, Stanton Williams and Asif Khan, working together with conservation architect Julian Harrap and landscape design consultants J&L Gibbons, were the winners of an international competition to find an architect to design the new Museum of London. The team was selected for their “innovative thinking, sensitivity to the heritage of the existing market buildings and understanding of practicalities of creating a great museum experience”.
The vision for the new Museum of London balances a crisp and contemporary design with a strong recognition of the physicality and power of the existing spaces of the West Smithfield site. The early stage concept includes a new lifted landmark dome which would create a beautiful light-filled entrance to the museum; innovative spiral escalators will transport visitors down to the exhibition galleries in a vast excavated underground chamber; flexible spaces are included that can serve as a new meeting place for London; and a centre for events and debate and a new sunken garden and green spaces to provide pockets of tranquillity.
Stanton Williams and Asif Khan are now working closely with the team at the Museum of London and the museum’s stakeholders including the GLA, City of London Corporation and the local Smithfield community to develop their initial concepts into a fully-formed vision for the new museum at West Smithfield.
Paul Williams, Director of Stanton Williams, said: “We are immensely excited about being given the opportunity to work with the Museum of London on this wonderfully challenging project – participating in an endeavour that will transform an area of London that has such a rich history, but sadly has been in decline for many years. Encountering the historic market spaces for the first time ... we were ‘blown away’ by the power and physicality already existing, and knew then, that whatever scheme we developed, this physicality needed to be harnessed, and not lost, and that initial observation has inspired our initial design proposals. This project will engage a broad community well beyond London.”
Asif Khan said: “To have a chance to create a new museum for London, in London, about London, at this moment in time is incredibly exciting for us. We all know the power of public spaces in changing our city and our individual lives, and this is what drives us. We want the Museum of London to be a museum where everyone belongs, and where the future of London is created.”

In 1860 the City of London obtained an Act of Parliament (The Metropolitan Meat and Poultry Market Act of 1860), allowing the construction of new buildings on the Smithfield site. Work began in 1866 on the two main sections of the market, the East and West Buildings. These buildings were built above railway lines which had newly connected London to every other part of the country, enabling meat to be delivered directly to the market.
The buildings, designed by City Architect Sir Horace Jones, were commissioned in 1866 and completed in November 1868 at a cost of £993,816. The Metropolitan Meat and Poultry Act also authorised the development of the Poultry Market which opened in 1875. This building was subsequently destroyed by a major fire in 1958 and was replaced by the current building in 1962. Further buildings were added to the market in later years, the General Market in 1883 and the Annexe Market in 1888.
