Overcrowded jails and prisons are a growing issue in the US and also globally. This demand can now be filled instantly with modular jail and prison cells made from recycled ISBU shipping containers.
One of the companies leading this technology is DRC Logistics in Mobile, Alabama. We were first made aware of this company when their DRC Group corporate office contacted the ISBU Association in April of 2009 for data regarding ISBU specifications, diagrams and governmental approval information.
By June of this year the DRC Group had created a new division named “Jails On Demand” which produces modular jail cells and prison facilities constructed from secure recycled shipping containers. Their modular ISBU jail cells and prison facilities are manufactured in full compliance with the American Correctional Association (ACA) standards and are ready for immediate delivery and installation.
The DRC Group has a very credible 30 year history and experience with much expertise in various construction and manufacturing technologies to assist them as they market the “instant jail” concept. Correctional facilities using ISBU container technology is not new, however DRC has the experience and financial resources to become a global leader of this trend.

My funky collection on the back deck - three heirloom tomato plants, and the one fairytale eggplant. So far, so good...hopefully we'll get tomatoes this year.
This photo, which was taken on December 5, 2018, is of the concrete container for manure storage at UMD’s campus farm.
This photo demonstrates the ecological concept of eutrophication. When it rains, the water carries pollutants from the ground’s surface into waterways. Manure is a major pollutant because it is high in nitrogen and phosphorus. In freshwater systems, nitrogen and phosphorus are often limiting nutrients. So, increasing their presence causes a spike in the productivity of primary producers, most notably algae. Eutrophication is an increase in the productivity of aquatic systems (Ricklefs & Relyea, 2014). The algal blooms cover the water’s surface and block light from penetrating the water. These then create dead zones. Dead zones have hypoxic or anoxic conditions which do not favor species of fish that are desirable to humans. Instead of the fish that humans like to eat, species like worms and jellyfish are able to survive in these conditions.
This ecological concept supports the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal #14, which is Life Below Water. This goals aims to protect water bodies like oceans due to the immense amount of people that depend on them for food and for their livelihood. They cite that eutrophication of coastal marine systems is expected to increase 20% by 2050 (“Sustainable Development Goal 14”). The installation of the manure storage container onto the farm drastically decreased the amount of pollutants that are carried to waterways by runoff. The dead zones created by eutrophication hurt the seafood industry because most of the fish consumed by humans need oxygen to survive. Efforts to stop the flow of these pollutants to the waterways will be beneficial in allowing forms of life below water, like crabs, to be better able to survive, and their survival is crucial to the fishing industry.

A small geocache container is usually big enough for a log book and some small trading items.
I tried several shots, but light was not enough and our ship was constantly moving. Ratana Thida on weekly Tokyo - Bangkok route.
De 45' containers van het Belgische ECS behoren tot de fraaiste op het spoor. Hoewel er één basisdesign is, zijn er wel (kleine) verschillen.
Dit is zo'n beetje de basis, en ook flink verweerd door het intensief gebruik.

Nope, can't mix and match any of these containers. The sizes just don't match. Personally, I like the Maersk containers the best for looks, and the 10170 are second best. The 7939 build very fast since they're mostly large 6x5 panels.
Another visit to Target yielded these, all at half price. Panda bottle is meant for water or sport drink (and isn't it beautiful!). The brown bottle is for cold drinks and has a built-in straw. The Container in foreground will be good for anything, hot or cold.
I am coming around to the view that rather than try to imitate Japanese bento, I should absorb the principles of quality, variety, and presentation, and then apply those to ordinary American foods, packed in readily available containers. Not bento but bento-like. Still I'd like to have some proper containers. One of these days :)
