While in Arizona, I had the opportunity to visit the DaDee Manufacturing facility. I met Refuse Arizona the week before at Waste Expo and we were able to arrange a tour at the DaDee Manufacturing facility. On my way to their facility I saw The Scorpion FE Mack LR from Waste Expo pull into the Mack dealership in Phoenix, it was neat seeing that truck twice in one week in two different states. Once I arrived at DaDee Manufacturing Refuse Arizona gave me a tour that started at prefabrication and went all the way to final assembly. I had a great time learning more about the DaDee products and seeing them in person.
Big thank you to everyone at DaDee Manufacturing, they are truly an innovative company with products of the highest quality. And a special thank you to Refuse Arizona for the amazing tour, it was an honor meeting you and Waste Expo and talking about the Waste Industry.

I am still working on the commander and a shield/sensor generator unit.
Time to move on to the next faction. ;)
Group photograph of Armstrong Whitworth employees taken at the Elswick Works, Newcastle upon Tyne, during the First World War (TWAM ref. DS.VA/9/PH/19/4).
‘Workshop of the World’ is a phrase often used to describe Britain’s manufacturing dominance during the Nineteenth Century. It’s also a very apt description for the Elswick Works and Scotswood Works of Vickers Armstrong and its predecessor companies. These great factories, situated in Newcastle along the banks of the River Tyne, employed hundreds of thousands of men and women and built a huge variety of products for customers around the globe.
The Elswick Works was established by William George Armstrong (later Lord Armstrong) in 1847 to manufacture hydraulic cranes. From these relatively humble beginnings the company diversified into many fields including shipbuilding, armaments and locomotives. By 1953 the Elswick Works covered 70 acres and extended over a mile along the River Tyne. This set of images, mostly taken from our Vickers Armstrong collection, includes fascinating views of the factories at Elswick and Scotswood, the products they produced and the people that worked there. By preserving these archives we can ensure that their legacy lives on.

This is a postcard taken and published by the Aircraft Manufacturing Co. Ltd, commonly known as AIRCO. The company was the largest manufacturer of aircraft during the first world war, their chief designer was Geoffrey De Havilland. At the end of the war they branched out into other things such as air transport, an airline, aerial photography and postcard publishing from their premises at Hendon Aerodrome in north London. The company was bought by British Small Arms in 1920 and liquidated by them, Geoffrey De Havilland went on to greater things. The photograph shows the aerial view looking northeast whilst the aeroplane is flying over the Aldwych and the Strand, on the right is the new Australia House and to the left a number of low rise buildings on the sites later occupied by India House and Bush House. The buildings were collectively known as the Eagle Hut, opened in August 1917 as a rest and recreation centre for American servicemen, it was the idea of four American businessmen based in London and the YMCA. At the opening ceremony in September the American Ambassador was joined by a group of American Civil War veterans living in London, during it’s operation which lasted until August 1919, it was visited by King George V where he sampled his first American pancake. The hut could provide up to 5000 meals per day and accommodate over 400 men in dormitories, it was truly a home from home for the American troops. In March 1919 the local police from Bow Street made several arrests of American servicemen for playing dice in the street outside the Eagle hut. A rumour went around that one of them had been killed by the police, this was not the case but between 1000 and 2000 servicemen besieged Bow Street Police Station and a riot ensued with injuries to both Police and servicemen. Following an investigation into the events, 30 servicemen were arrested, with seven American soldiers and sailors handed over to the American Military Police and the US Navy shore patrol respectively. Four Canadian servicemen appeared at Bow Street Magistrates' Court charged with riot and six other servicemen who were injured in the riot were kept under guard in hospital before a later appearance in court.

A Barn Mill manufactured in 1850 by Tuxford of Boston for grinding corn for cattle food and now located at Grade II Listed The Museum Of Lincolnshire Life on Burton Road, Lincoln, Lincolnshire.
The museum is housed in a Victorian barracks built for the Royal North Lincoln Militia in 1857. It is a fine example of Victorian military architecture and is a Grade II listed building.
The Militia were a force of part time volunteer soldiers whose main role was home defence. The Royal North Lincoln Militia used the barracks for training and administrative purposes and the site served as their headquarters until 1880. From this date the militia were based at the New Barracks (later Sobraon Barracks), also on Burton Road, which was headquarters to the Lincolnshire Regiment. In 1881 the Royal North Lincoln Militia officially amalgamated with the County Regiment to become the 3rd Battalion Lincolnshire Regiment.
For 20 years the site fell into relative disuse until in 1901 it was once again used by a military force. The Lincolnshire Imperial Yeomanry, a voluntary cavalry unit, used the barracks as its headquarters until it was disbanded in 1920.
The barracks building remained in military use, occupied by a variety of territorial and other army units, until 1963. Just 6 years later, on 29th July 1969, the Lincolnshire Association for the Arts and Heritage opened the Museum of Lincolnshire Life. The museum was run independently by the association until 1974, when it was transferred to Lincolnshire County Council.
Since its beginnings the museum has built up a fascinating collection of over 250,000 objects, both on display and in store. Today visitors can enjoy the charming period room and shop settings displaying our wonderful social history collection, with a working Victorian kitchen and printing press during special event days. In addition the museum boasts a nationally important agricultural and industrial collection, including impressive steam engines, threshing machines and the iconic World War One tank developed and built by Foster’s of Lincoln. The museum is also home to the Royal Lincolnshire Regimental Galleries.

I must be easily pleased - but, this small illustrated colour booklet of some 16 pages is so beautifully produced and is about such an esoteric subject as halibut oil that it is a gem! It was issued about 1950 I would say, given the style and 'feel', and was printed at The Fanfare Press, London, for The Crookes Laboratories who were based at Park Royal in north west London and from where they manufactured many vitamins and supplements including those made from halibut liver oil that provided Vitamin D.
Crookes have a fascinating history and they still exist as a multinational concern, based in Nottingham, as they had been for many years part of Boots the Chemists who had acquired them in 1971. Boots bought the company from the Park Royal 'neighbours' Guinness who had an interest in Crookes from 1960 when they'd jointly bought them along with a division of Philips. They're now owned by Reckitt Benckiser who took over Boots Healthcare manufacturing division in 2005.
The origins of the company go back to the eminant scientist Sir William Crookes, he of the Crookes Tube that allowed the development of many other technologies. It was his son, Henry, who started making colloids in around 1912 and whose concern became part of British Colloids in 1919, the name changing to Crookes Laboratories in 1951.
According to the booklet much clever technology was required from when the fresh halibut livers arrived at Park Royal until the purified capsules left! The charming illustrations and text look at the need for and importance of Vitamin D in such a sun-drenched country as the UK and the various demanding life and work styles encountered by many people. The illustrations are all signed "Xenia" and I'm tempted to think this is no other than Xenia Kashevaroff Cage (1913 - 1995?), the US born artist of some renown but whose work was overshadowed by her one time husband John Cage.
It seems a bit far fetched but Xenia, noted for sculptural forms and mobiles, did a series of posters for BOAC at around the same time and the style is so very similar. Hopefully this can be confirmed one way or the other! This page is striking - I'm not sure if this is Mr A D Green striding manfully along the street protected by his hat, brolly, gloves and Vitamin D!
When Henry Ford established the Ford Motor Company in Detroit, the assembly line method revolutionised automobile production. Ford of Canada is unique in the sense that it was incorporated on 17 August 1904 without any real ownership from the parent company in the USA. Today it is a wholly own subsidiary. While originally located in Walkerville, the company moved it's headquarters and established a manufacturing plant in Oakville in the post-war boom. Purchasing a large poultry farm the plant and new HQ opened in 1953. The current HQ building opened in 2002 replacing the original one.

This photo is not real earthquake mess! I was so stressed out last night I manufactured some chaos out of Jade’s studio, which was mostly packed away. Everything is carefully balanced, I don’t know how I managed to pull it off with all the aftershocks!
Yesterday and last night totally sucked.
A 7.0 earthquake yesterday morning left my real studio (and a lot of my house) in shambles. Entire shelves were emptied, art fell off the walls, coffee cups fell out of the cabinet (and broke the coffee pot,) there is major structural damage to a lot of the main roads and off ramps in town. Many businesses are closed. Thankfully my family and I are all safe! After the main quake we have been continually hit with aftershocks (there was just a 3.7 a minute ago.)
This has all been so completely terrifying and stressful. The initial quake was horrible, I was all alone in the dark, and the aftershocks are totally keeping me on edge. It isn’t even about any of the the damage that happened, I think I’m stuck in the fear that at any moment a tremor could turn into a worse earthquake. People up here talk about The Big One, and we are apparently due for a Big one, and I’m just worried it will happen and my house will spontaneously explode or something.
Thank you everyone for your concern and well wishes!!
More cleaning for me today. My internet isn’t the best at the moment, so I am still trying to reply to older comments!

Life was meant for good friends... and great adventures.
Exploration of The Plastoid Corporation in Hamburg, NJ (formerly Wheatsworth Mills). Several buildings and levels of emptiness that we filled with laughter and good times, my dear friend and I. A return trip is in order! Truly a great adventure with a very good friend.
Not really sure what these things did but anyway its an abandoned mfg factory / plant.
And no I'm not really sure what they manufactured...but I'll check into that.
I do know that it was a somewhat risky and interesting location and whatever it was must have involved explosive chemicals and the need for gas masks. But what the heck it made for an interesting explore.

The Lamborghini Urraco is a 2+2 sports car manufactured by Italian automaker Lamborghini, introduced at the Turin Auto Show in 1970, marketed for model years 1972-1979, and named after a line of Miura-bred fighting bulls; the name translates to "little bull".
The Urraco is a 2+2 coupé with body designed by Marcello Gandini, at the time working for Carrozzeria Bertone. Rather than being another supercar, like the Lamborghini Miura, the Urraco was more affordable, an alternative to the contemporary Ferrari Dino and Maserati Merak.
When production ceased in 1979, 791 Urracos had been built, of which 21 were Urraco P111s (P250 Tipo 111s) for the American market. In order to comply with American regulations, these cars had larger front bumpers and emissions controls, the latter resulting in less horsepower. The other Urraco versions were the Urraco P200, Urraco P250 and Urraco P300 with 2-litre, 2.5-litre, and 3-litre V8s respectively.
Both the Lamborghini Silhouette, with its detachable roof panel, and its successor Lamborghini Jalpa, with a 3.5 litre V-8 engine, were based upon the Urraco.
The P250 was powered by a 2.5 L SOHC V8 Engine producing 162 kW (217 hp) @ 7,500 and 220 Nm (162 lb.ft) at 3,750 rpm.
The engine was mounted rear-amidship, just ahead of the rear axle. Like the similar 2+2 Dino (Ferrari) 308 GT4, the ngine was mounted transversely, with the engine offset to the RHS of the car, and the gearbox to the LHS.

I went to a Truck Show that was held in the Automatic Switch Company Parking Lot on June 8, 1991. Automatic Switch is located at 160 Park Ave, Florham Park, NJ 07932.
This Particular Photograph shows a B. V. Gagliano Transportation Mack Truck. In front of the Truck is a Sign for the American Truck Historical Society, Metro Jersey Chapter.
Although it was Listed as a Truck Show, there were also many Classic Cars at the show. This 1937 Chevrolet 2 Door Sedan caught my eye and the lens of my 35 mm Minolta Maxxim 5000.
Disclaimer: This photograph was taken on June 8, 1991 with my Minolta Maxxim 5000 35 mm SLR with Color Print Film, when I was just learning photograph, so it is very soft & grainy. I scanned the Negative, and used Photoshop Elements™ to correct the Exposure and Saturation to generate the Digital Digital Image, presented here on flickr™.
