Service members with the 407th Air Expeditionary Group load cargo containers onto a C-130 aircraft on Contingency Operating Base Adder Oct. 26. These aircraft have ferried the bulk of U.S. service members redeploying. The aircraft and crew are kept busy during the drawdown of forces in Iraq.
I've got an eight by six by eight foot tall concrete box where the shaft will go and for now I shovel the sand in it then from there shovel it out the access port.
Two employees of the 19 odd mile long Thunder Rail use a front end loader to load a single hopper with ballast at Arborfield Saskatchewan. Ronny (in the foreground) has just finished telling me of a torrential downpour the town received just a few hours before my arrival. As conversation turned to the weather, we both agreed the province has had quite enough rain for the season. I spent an hour or so photographing the two men at work in the yard as well as out on the line before departing to continue my journey northward. Five days after this photo was taken, the 400 residents of Arborfield were forced to flee to higher ground as yet another rain storm arrived to flood the streets, homes, and businesses. I've always found the people of rural Saskatchewan to be welcoming and friendly to outsiders, these two railwaymen were no exception. Although I did not return to the community after the flood, I'm sure these men, like many others in the area, were hard at work getting things back as they should be....

I am using LOAD to help me jump start my scrapping of our recent trip to Playa de Carmen.
Journaling reads: And we are off! Our trip to Mexico is finally here! We have been saving all year for this trip.It is Evan's first flight ever.We left at 7:30 Winnipeg time and arrived in Cancun at 3:30.I was really nervous about the flight because of my ears but it wasn't too bad...We couldn't believe how good the food was but then again we hadn't eaten since 4:00 in the morning.It was interesting to see how long the frosted window took to thaw.The turquoise water was gorgeous as we landed in Cancun.We are really ready for warmer weather!
Bow lifted to rear roller, winch strap attached/locked and ready to winch. All this is done with one person with very little lifting involved. Winch allows safe loading of boat with no danger of boat falling off. For offloading, it also stops at this preset location as so you can walk to the rear of the boat with no danger of it falling. It will allow you to disconnect the strap, then manually lift the bow off the roller and settle to the ground.

Loading box lunches before departure, Detroit Light Guard Armory, July 13, 1960, a.m.
* * * * *
July 13, 1960, by Paul Magley
After arising about 5:30 AM, on Wednesday, sleeping bags and air-mattresses were quickly packed, Beginning at 6:30 AM, a breakfast of sausages, eggs, buns, potatoes, cupcakes, and milk was served.
At 7~30 AM, the last scout left the basement dining room as buses were loaded with gear and box lunches.
The contingent leaders called for the police escort and decided to alter the departure time to one slightly ahead of schedule.
After leaving the grounds of the Light Guard Armory, where we had remained overnight, our group proceeded along 8 mile road. Along the departure route we noticed the Detroit Artillery Armory and a large fiberglass factory at approximately
8: 15 AM.
A light rain in the morning had been sandwiched between a downpour during the night and heavy rainfall in the early afternoon, which cleared by 2:00 PM.
We went south on route 24. which for some distance is known as Telegraph Road, and passed over the small Rouge River three times.
The buses entered Dearborn, Michigan, at 8:50 AM, = by 10:00 AM, northwestern Ohio - at 10:10 AM began rolling on the Ohio Turnpike - 11:40 AM, passed double toll gates and entered Indiana on the Indiana Toll Road.
At 12~00 noon our bus met and passed a troop of scouts from Troy, New York, who were also going to the Jamboree.
When we stopped from 1:07 to 2:00 PM, at a service area in northwestern Indiana for a box lunch outside a restaurant called the Glass House (also a Cities Service Station) Mr, Kohnken, ASM" met Dave Mayer of Watervliet, New York, a leader of a
Troy, New York Jamboree bound troop. They had met at philmont Scout Ranch in 1959.
We also learned that this contingent from Troy prepared their own food enroute instead of having their meals catered along the way.
Somewhat later we were obliged to halt for a short while because one of the buses had minor engine difficulties, However, it was quickly fixed by our driver-mechanic.
At 3:45 PM, we observed a mass of transmission lines and electrical transformers that enveloped us for several minutes.
Illinois was then entered at 3:50, Lake Michigan was on our right side and, at 4:00 the Calumet Skyway Toll Bridge brought us into Chicago's variation of a traffic congestion problem.
We arrived at the Navy pier at 5:00 PM, Between 5:45 and 6:30 PM, we enjoyed an excellent dinner at one of Harvey's Restaurants in Union Railway Station.
After by-passing the rush hour, travellers waiting for trains, we filed by troops up to the mezzanine for an excellent dinner of fried chicken, peas, potatoes, rolls and butter, apple pie, and milk.
When Casey returned to the bus he was given a double round of cheering, A sign reading "Cannonball Casey at the Wheel" was attached to the front of the bus by the troop scribe.
On our sightseeing trip away from Union Station, we observed the outward evidence of a subway system, empty lots of junk" a fire department academy under construction, slums, railroad tracks and cars beyond count, piles of graphite, ship canals, the home of the Spiegel catalogue, Comiskey Park of the White Sox, long railroad underpasses, an annex of the University of Chicago, Chinatown, combined police and fire department buildings, and the Chicago Coliseum, (where the Republican Party will hold its 1960 convention) passed in an array of rapidly appearing attractions.
We saw the art institute, Grant Park" five story high layered parking lots, orchestral music hall, public library, Prudential Insurance Company Building, and the exquisitely modern Chicago Sun Times Building.
By the time the street lights were turned on we became slightly confused as to where we were. However, we continued on and saw the "highest church in the world" located in a tall office building.
Suddenly finding ourselves along the shores of Lake Michigan, we witnessed the fury of one of the Great Lakes. Unusually low
temperature and tall white breakers drove everyone off the beaches. Angry waves lashed against retaining walls causing spray to shoot several feet skyward.
From there we went on through Lincoln Park" past the Central Park Lake and the Chicago Zoo. The famous monument of Lincoln is also found in the aptly named "windy" city.
The Chicago Federal Court of Appeals had a perfect view of the gale swept shore line. Steve Horlitz and others almost lost their neckerchiefs as they hung from the open windows.
We returned to the Navy Pier at 9:00 PM, took a shower and retired at 10:15 PM.
During the night a frost was deposited on the grass outside.
Note: We didn't have to set our watches back one hour for Central Daylight Savings Time zone near Elkhart, Indiana» since we already had set our watches back for standard time in Detroit.

In the Dominican Republic, sugar cane is cut by hand with a machete. It is the lowest paid workers who actually cut the cane; they are usually new immigrants from Haiti. The work is grueling, somewhat dangerous, and very uncomfortable. The action of cutting sugar cane is called "picando la caña," which is from picar, and someone who cuts the cane is a picador, plural picadores. Picadores are paid by the metric ton.
The cut cane is gathered and put into a cart. The person who is in charge of this process is a cart-warden, or carretero. Un carretero sabe carretear.
Usually a team of oxen (bueys) pulls the cart to the weighing area, or grua , where the cart's contents will be weighed. The picadores and the carretero will receive tickets representing the amount they cut or delivered, respectively.
The workers live in a batey. A batey is a company town consisting of barracks and a few houses.
Every year for seventy years or more, male seasonal immigrants from Haiti arrive. These people are called congoses (plural-singular un congo), which is a derisive term roughly equivalent to "hick," "idiot," "chump," or "sucker" in our language. Congoses are lodged five to a room with no bedding and expected to work long, hard hours. The conditions are deplorable, even when they can get paid many times more than what they had previously received in Haiti.
Over time, some of these migrants have stayed through the six months that follow the zafra, called tiempo muerto, and have started families. Haitian women have migrated, as well. Bateyes are unique in culture and language in their mix of that which is Haitian and that which is Dominican.
Bateyes are often still regarded as places where only Haitians (non-citizens) live. Since the Haitians who originally filled the bateyes were not legal immigrants, their children have often been denied citizenship papers. Without citizenship papers, these Dominican born children of Haitian immigrants cannot go to school nor can they receive the benefits of other public services.
However, the Dominican sugar industry is no longer competitive, and when combined with the historical lack of educational and health services to these communities, the low wages have tended to make bateyes some of the poorest communities in the country.
The current trend in the Dominican Republic is for the ingenios to stop producing and for the bateyes to very slowly transform themselves into new sorts of communities. Los Alcarrizos in the Santo Domingo province is a good example of something that used to be a batey but now is a municipality which survives through jobs in the area, but making the transition is hard when people are so poor and only know about the sweet stuff.
Right now the workers get about 10 - 12 Dollars a day, working from sun-up to sun-down. It's hard on the animals too.

From my own files, I present the GUN Loader 2.0! Deployed by the Hyperion corporation, loaders are Handsome Jack's soldiers, for a lack of better words. There are many variants. This includes the ION, HOT, RPG, and EXP loaders. They have many critical hit points, including their central eye. GUN variants seem to carry the Transmurdera SMG, although this is never confirmed.
