First Presbyterian Church (Bethlehem, Pennsylvania)

The First Presbyterian Church of Bethlehem, Pennsylvania was established in 1875, and the present building on Center Street was completed in 1957. The Church had 2,609 members as of June 2015 but the Presbyterian Church, like every mainline Protestant denomination, has suffered a decline in national membership, especially over the past decade. In 2016, the elected leadership (the session) voted to break away from the national denomination, the Presbyterian Church (USA) or PC (USA) to join a new conservative body, the Evangelical Covenant Order of Presbyterians or ECO. Points of contention between the two bodies hinge on acceptance of same sex issues by the national church, their involvement in social justice issues such as gun violence and the Israel–Palestine conflict, and ECO's belief in Biblical literalism. During the past year, a group of members, Presbyterians for Unity, desiring to remain within the Presbyterian Church (USA), were against the split and had attempted dialog with the church leadership to attempt some form of reconciliation. Two polls were initially taken, the first was an official vote under established Presbyterian church law and the second was an unofficial straw vote to determine the wishes of as many church members as possible. Both of these votes indicated that there was insufficient percentage of members required to allow an amicable separation under established Church law. Church law does not recognize straw polls. A third vote was taken by followers of ECO under State law as an independent corporation of the State of Pennsylvania. Case law in Pennsylvania in the past has not permitted a Church to be divided under corporate law and this is the basis of one lawsuit. Recent similar court rulings nationally have taken similar positions. Since July 2016, both religious groups comply with a court order to hold separate services within the church property. There are three separate legal actions, presently, in Northampton County court attempting to resolve the issues of money, property, and official use of the name, the "First Presbyterian Church of Bethlehem". The three day trial ended August 30, 2017.[1] On December 12, the court ruled that the church and all of its assets were legally held in trust by the Lehigh Presbytery for the PC(USA) congregation. A little more than a month later, the leadership of the ECO congregation announced that it would not appeal the court's ruling.

Steamtown National Historic Site

Die Steamtown National Historic Site, kurz Steamtown, ist ein Eisenbahnmuseum in Scranton, Pennsylvania in den USA. Geschichte Steamtown wurde 1986 durch einen Beschluss des Kongresses ins Leben gerufen, um die Geschichte der amerikanischen Eisenbahnen zwischen 1850 und 1950 darzustellen. Im Sommer 1995 wurde Steamtown schließlich eröffnet. Die Steamtown-Idee stammte ursprünglich von F. Nelson Blount, einem amerikanischen Millionär, der schon Jahre vor der Eröffnung der National Historic Site begann, historische Eisenbahnfahrzeuge zu sammeln. Da nach dessen Tod im Jahre 1967 bei einem Flugzeugabsturz allerdings die Geldmittel für ein solches lebendiges, historisches Bahnbetriebswerk fehlten, kam dieses Original-Steamtown-Projekt zum Erliegen, bis es vom Kongress wieder aufgenommen wurde. Museum und Sammlung Das Museum benutzt die Anlagen eines ehemaligen Bahnbetriebswerkes der Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad. Das Herzstück der Anlage bildet ein Rundlokschuppen mit dazugehöriger Drehscheibe. In den Museumsräumlichkeiten kann der Besucher die große Zahl an Exponaten, vom Rollmaterial bis hin zum Nachbau eines DL&W-Bahnhofgebäudes, bewundern. Da in Steamtown auch mehrere betriebsfähige Lokomotiven stationiert sind, führt das Museum von Frühling bis Herbst Rundfahrten mit kurzen historischen Personenzügen im Museumsareal durch. Weiters werden auch längere Sonderfahrten zu nahegelegenen Orten durchgeführt. Weblinks NPS Steamtown
Steel Force

Steel Force in Dorney Park & Wildwater Kingdom (Allentown, Pennsylvania, USA) ist eine Stahlachterbahn des Herstellers D. H. Morgan Manufacturing, die am 30. Mai 1997 eröffnet wurde. Sie wurde von Steve Okamoto konstruiert. Die Länge beträgt 1706,9 m und sie ist somit die längste Achterbahn an der Ostküste. Außerdem besitzt sie eine 62,5 m hohe Abfahrt mit einer Geschwindigkeit von 120,7 km/h, wodurch über 2,5 g entstehen. Zusätzlich besitzt die Steel Force zwei Tunnel mit einer Länge von jeweils 36,6 m, sowie eine 510°-Helix. Nach der Blockbremse auf etwa Hälfte der Strecke folgen vier Hügel, die für Airtime auf dem Rückweg zur Station sorgen. Zum Zeitpunkt ihrer Eröffnung galt sie als die höchste, längste und schnellste Achterbahn an der Ostküste. Den Rekord für die längste Bahn hält sie noch immer. Das Logo von Steel Force war ursprünglich für die Achterbahn Mantis in Cedar Point gedacht, die ein Jahr vorher eröffnete. Mantis sollte ursprünglich Banshee genannt werden, wurde dann aber in Mantis umgeändert. Dadurch, dass das Logo nach der Namensänderung nicht mehr passend war, übernahm Dorney Park das Logo für Steel Force. Züge Steel Force besitzt drei Züge mit jeweils sechs Wagen. In jedem Wagen können sechs Personen (drei Reihen à zwei Personen) Platz nehmen. Weblinks Steel Force auf der Parkwebsite (englisch) Steel Force in der Roller Coaster DataBase
Steel Force

Steel Force is a steel roller coaster located at Dorney Park & Wildwater Kingdom in Allentown, Pennsylvania. At 5,600 feet (1,700 m) in length, Steel Force is tied with Mamba at Worlds of Fun as the ninth-longest steel coaster in the world as of 2026. Built by D. H. Morgan Manufacturing and designed by Steve Okamoto, the roller coaster opened to the public on May 30, 1997, and was billed as "the tallest and longest roller coaster on the east coast", featuring a 205-foot (62 m) drop, 5,600 feet (1,700 m) of track, and a maximum speed of 75 mph (121 km/h). History On September 16, 1996, Dorney Park announced that Steel Force would be added to the park. The ride opened on May 30, 1997. Steel Force has been ranked among the top steel coasters in the world several times. Its logo was originally intended to be used for the stand-up coaster Mantis (now Rougarou), which opened at Cedar Point a year earlier. Mantis was originally going to be named "Banshee," but the name and logo were changed prior to its debut. Dorney Park adopted it for its Steel Force coaster a year later. Ride experience The train departs the station entering a slight decline followed by a slight left turn leading into the chain lift hill, ascending 200 feet (61 m). At the top, the train drops down at 205 feet (62 m) at a 61-degree angle. At the bottom of the first drop, the train goes through the first of the two tunnels; each at 120 feet (37 m) in length. The train then enters a 161 feet (49 m) camelback hill, where riders experience seconds of floating airtime. The train then ascends another hill, and into a 510° downward helix. The train enters a slight decline and into a slight left turn, and ascends into the mid-course brake run, before entering a series of three consecutive airtime hills and a double-up; the train goes through second tunnel before the second hill, along with a camera taking on-ride photos at the bottom before the third hill. Following the double-up element, the train makes a slight left over the base of the lift hill and entrance plaza and to the right, leading into one of the final brake runs before making a 180° turn to the right into the final brake run and back into the station. Awards Characteristics Track Steel Force's track is 5,600 feet (1,700 m) in length. Each track weighs 2,000 tons, with concrete footers for the support structures weighing 12,150,000 pounds (5,510,000 kg). Approximately 2,742 anchor bolts were required to assemble the coaster. Trains Steel Force operates with 3 trains. Each train has 6 cars that can seat 6 riders per car for a total of 36 riders per train. Each train is fitted with individual seat belts and lap bar restraints. The trains are colored white and light grey and each feature a different colored stripe (red, blue, and black).

Conemaugh Generating Station

The Conemaugh Generating Station is a 1,872 MW baseload coal-powered plant located on 1,750 acres (710 ha), across the Conemaugh River from New Florence in Western Pennsylvania. Track 3 of the Norfolk Southern Pittsburgh Line runs next to the power plant. The power plant will close by or before December 31, 2028, as a result of a new federal wastewater rule that prohibits coal power plants from dumping toxic elements such as mercury, arsenic, and selenium into streams and rivers, along with the Keystone Generating Station and at least 24 other power plants in 14 states. Facility The station generates enough electricity to light 17 million 100-watt bulbs. The facility consists of two steam turbines, which began commercial operation in 1970 and 1971, and two cooling towers. The main turbines run on steam produced by twin year-around 850 MWe boilers, each as tall as a 14-story building. The plant uses more than 4 million tons of coal each year. Conemaugh has two hyperbolic natural draft cooling towers which provide recirculating water to cool and condense the steam and to limit the amount of water needed from the river. The plant is one of several in the area, situated near Pennsylvania deep mines and is basically a twin of the Keystone Generating Station, partially owned by PSEG Power. Controlling emissions To control air pollution emissions, the plant is equipped with electrostatic precipitators and low-NOx burners. A wet limestone flue-gas desulfurization system was installed in the mid 1990s. The plant donated a particularly scenic portion of the site, known locally as Buttermilk Falls, to Indiana County for use as a wildlife refuge. Company The plant employs about 200 people and is one of the largest employers in Indiana County. It is a subsidiary of GenOn Energy Inc. Water pollution In March 2011, PennEnvironment and the Sierra Club won a favorable court ruling finding that the plant had committed 8,684 violations of the Clean Water Act by discharging wastewater directly into the Conemaugh River. On June 6, 2011 GenOn agreed to a $5 million settlement with $3.75 million going toward the restoration of the river.
