Will Waldron / Times Union 6 of6 • • • • • • ATHENS — A group of Twin Counties history buffs are rushing to raise millions of dollars to prevent a landmark 19th-century lighthouse from collapsing into the Hudson River. The Hudson-Athens Lighthouse was constructed in the 1870s to warn ships about a tidal sandbar in the river, which it still does to this day. But wear and tear over the decades has caused the structure’s base to deteriorate. An engineering study completed in 2022 warned the lighthouse, one of seven remaining on the Hudson, could fall into the river in the next five years. The Lighthouse Restoration Committee Chair Van Calhoun said the lighthouse’s base deteriorated as a result of modern ships. The base consists of 200 wood pilings driven 50 feet into the riverbed that were once encased in earth and surrounded by large boulders. Though it was considered an “engineering marvel” in the 1870s, the lighthouse is unable to withstand modern shipping traffic. Current watercraft displace huge amounts of water as they travel by, dislodging the bould...

Investors have gravitated toward ON Semiconductor ( -1.88%) and Super Micro Computer ( -1.55%) have hitched their wagons to the AI trend. Here's why investors are excited about both companies. Making cars smarter Shares of ON Semiconductor were up more than 1% in early trading. The semiconductor manufacturer has concentrated much of its attention on the automotive market, particularly the efforts of auto manufacturers to produce autonomous driving systems. Beyond autonomous driving, ON Semi is also poised to benefit from the trend toward EV adoption. Its power systems know-how could help the company provide better solutions over time for EV charging. Given the challenge that range anxiety represents to potential EV buyers, a solution from ON Semi could change the industry. Best of all, unlike many tech companies, ON Semi is currently profitable and even trades at a reasonable multiple of about 20 times next year's estimated earnings. That suggests that even at a record stock price...
