"When it was operating full time, Watkins Mill employed 40 workers -- 25 men, 10 women and five children. Most of the men were highly proficient workers called operatives. The women were weavers and the children were often apprentices who were learning the mill industry. The Mill's original work force included immigrant English, Irish, French, Canadian, German and Swedish employees, as well as individuals from the eastern United States. Because of the skill involved, mill workers were often well-paid.
The process was quite detailed. After a sheep was sheared, the wool was matted together to resemble a thin rug, then rolled into bundles. About two-thirds of the material was then sorted by grade and scoured by a willower, a machine that pulls the wool apart and removes dirt and natural oils. It could then be made into yarn or cloth, or dyed. From there, the scoured, unscoured and dyed wool went to the picker room, where the sorts were divided and placed into uniform layers, then fed into the picker, which prepared the wool for carding by pulling it apart into small, fluffy bits.
Carding machines untangled individual fibers and reduced sheets of wool to a continuous strand. The material was then ready to be spun into yarn. After this, it could be sold or continue within the manufacturing process to be woven into cloth, often with complex patterns.
Powering the Mill's looms and machines was a 60-horsepower slide-valve steam engine that Waltus Watkins purchased from a company in St. Louis, Mo. The engine had been salvaged from a river steamboat and its wood-fired boiler provided the 100 pounds of pressure needed to operate the Mill's equipment at the correct speed.
Although the milling process and its associated equipment and employees were expensive to coordinate, the business was profitable. Because of transport costs during the 1850s and '60s, goods produced on the East Coast were not always readily available throughout America. As a result, by 1870 there were about 880 woolen mills located in the Midwest alone."

(En) Founded in 1906, the Coking Plant of Anderlues was specialized in the production of coke for industrial use.
Coke was obtained by distillation of coal in furnaces and, thanks to its superior fuel coal properties, it was used afterwards to feed the blast furnaces in the steel manufacturing process.
Closed and abandoned since 2002, the site has since undergone many losses and damages, not including an important pollution. While some buildings have now been demolished, there are however still some important parts of the former coking plant.
Among them, the former coal tower, next to the imposing "battery" of 38 furnaces, where the coke was produced. Besides them, we still can see the administrative buildings, the power station with its cooling tower, and buildings for the by-products, which were obtained by recovering the tar and coal gas. There are also a gasometer north side, the coal tip east side and a settling basin south side.

Minton Tiles
The richly patterned and colored Minton tile floors are one of the most striking features of the extensions of the United States Capitol. They were first installed in 1856, when Thomas U. Walter was engaged in the design and construction of vast additions to the Capitol (1851-1865). For the floors in his extensions, Walter chose encaustic tile for its beauty, durability and sophistication.
•Artist: Minton, Hollins and Company
•Date: Installed in 1856
One striking example of the contrast between the interiors of the Old Capitol (finished in 1826) and the extensions (begun in 1851) may be seen in the differences in flooring materials. In the Old Capitol, stone pavers were used in corridors and other public spaces, such as the Rotunda and Crypt, while brick was used to floor committee rooms and offices. These materials, although durable and fireproof, would have looked plain and old-fashioned to the Victorian eye. In the mid-19th century, encaustic tile flooring was considered the most suitable and beautiful material for high-traffic areas. Unlike ordinary glazed tile, the pattern in encaustic tile is made of colored clays inlaid or imbedded in the clay ground. Because the color is part of the fabric of the encaustic tile, it will retain its beauty after years of wear. One observer noted:
“The indestructibility of tiles may be judged from the fact that the excavations at Pompeii have unearthed apartments where painted tiles are just as beautiful, the colors as fresh and bright as... when the fated city was in all its glory.”
Two types of tile were used at the U.S. Capitol: plain and inlaid encaustic tiles in a range of colors. Plain tiles were used as borders for the elaborate inlaid designs or to pave large corridor areas. They were available in seven colors: buff, red, black, drab, chocolate, light blue and white. Additional colors, such as cobalt blue, blue-gray, and light and dark green, appear in the inlaid encaustic tiles that form the elaborate centerpieces and architectural borders. They were made by “filling indentations in the unburnt tile with the desired colors and burning the whole together.”
The patterns and designs formed in the inlaid tiles were limited only by taste and imagination. They include geometric patterns such as the Greek key, guilloche, and basket weave; floral designs such as the fleur-de-lis; and figures such as dolphins and classical heads. Few of the patterns are repeated. Although most of the tiles are six-by-six-inch squares, some are round, triangular or pie-shaped. Approximately 1,000 different tile patterns are used in the corridors of the Capitol alone, and up to 100 different tiles may be needed to create a single design.
The original encaustic tiles in the Capitol extensions were manufactured at Stoke-upon-Trent in Staffordshire, England, by Minton, Hollins and Company. The firm’s patented tiles had won numerous gold medals at international exhibitions and were considered the best tiles made. In 1876, having seen Minton’s large display at the Centennial Exhibition in Philadelphia, one critic wrote, “Messr. Minton shone superior to all exhibits of the sort… and may be cited as showing the highest results in tile-pottery achieved by modern skill and research.”
Beginning in 1856, and continuing for five years, the tile was installed by the import firm of Miller and Coates of New York City. For the journey from New York to Washington, the tiles were packed in wooden casks weighing about 1100 pounds; each cask contained enough tiles to pave about 100 square feet. The cost of the tile ranged from $0.68 to $2.03 per square foot.
Thomas U. Walter had every reason to believe that the encaustic tile floors would last as long as his extensions stood. One visitor noted in 1859 that the tile floors vied with the beauty of marble and surpassed it in durability. While perhaps valid for other installations, however, this prediction proved overly optimistic for the Capitol Building. By 1924, the Minton tile was removed from the corridors in the first and second floors of the House Wing and replaced by “marble tile in patterns of a simple order.” In that day, marble was selected for its superior durability and because suitable replacement tile was difficult to find.
In the 1970s, however, a similar condition prompted a very different response. In 1972, a search was undertaken to determine a source of similar tiles in order to restore the original appearance of the building. Inquiries were made of all major American tile manufacturers, the American Ceramic Tile Manufacturers Association, and even Mexican and Spanish tile suppliers. Although the colors and designs could be reproduced relatively easily, the patterns would quickly wear because they would be applied to the surface. The “inlaid” feature of the encaustic tiles, i.e., the approximately 1/8-inch thickness of the pattern and color, is the characteristic that enables the Minton tiles to be walked upon for over 100 years without signs of wear. It was this technique that formed the basic difficulty of manufacture.
Finally, as a result of the Capitol’s needs becoming generally known, the Architect of the Capitol was placed in contact with H & R Johnson Tiles Ltd., located at Stoke-on-Trent, England. It was discovered that that firm was a successor company to the Minton Tile Co. and had even retained many of the original hand tools and forms in a private museum at the company’s manufacturing site.
Contact was then made with Mr. James Ellis, the Directing Architect of Ancient Monuments and Historic Buildings for the Crown. He had been trying for many years to establish a program for the replacement of the worn Minton tiles at the Houses of Parliament but had more or less given up the attempt because of H & R Johnson’s continued unwillingness to revive the encaustic tile process. However, the restoration work at the Arts and Industries Building of the Smithsonian Institution was in process at about the time the needs of the Capitol became known; it thus appeared that a market for such tiles was developing to the degree that the manufacturer began to reconsider its prior position. The company thus began the experiments that finally led to the present availability, after many decades, of the original Minton-type tiles.
Because the tiles in the Capitol are more decorative and have more complicated designs and color combinations than those in either the Houses of Parliament or the Smithsonian, those institutions were able to obtain replacement tiles sooner than the Capitol. The lessons learned in the manufacture of the simpler tiles served as a basis for filling the later needs.
Color photographs and full-sized drawings of the many required patterns were made and recorded, and many developmental submissions were made as the hand-made manufacturing process was re-developed. Finally, in 1986, the first acceptable tiles were delivered. The installation process was accomplished with modern cement adhesives and has yielded excellent results.
The program enabled the original tiles to be replaced with exact replicas. This project began on the first floor of the Senate wing, where the effects of 130 years of wear and tear were most noticeable. Replacement tile was closely scrutinized to ensure fidelity to the nineteenth-century originals. While difficult and slow, this process is the only fitting response to the history of the Capitol extensions, not only to restore the original beauty and elegance of these unique floors, but also to provide for their continuing attractiveness for the foreseeable future.

Le coke était obtenu par distillation de la houille dans des fours et, grâce à ses propriétés combustibles supérieures au charbon, il servait par après à alimenter les hauts-fourneaux dans le processus de fabrication de l'acier.
Fermé et laissé à l'abandon depuis 2002, le site a depuis lors subi de nombreuses pertes et dégradations, sans compter la pollution qui y règne. Si certains bâtiments (comme l'ancien lavoir à charbon) ont aujourd'hui été démolis, on retrouve encore toutefois certaines parties importantes de cette ancienne cokerie.
Parmi celles-ci, l'ancienne tour à charbon suivie de près par l'imposante "batterie" de 38 fours, où était produit le coke. A côté d'eux, on découvre également les bâtiments administratifs, la centrale électrique avec sa tour de refroidissement, ainsi que les bâtiments des sous-produits, lesquels étaient obtenus par récupération du goudron et du gaz de houille. Et en périphérie, on retrouve un gazomètre côté nord, le terril à l'est et un bassin de décantation côté sud.
The new window fitted. They differ slightly from the original ones fitted to the loco. The frames are aluminium as opposed to the rubber originals and both panes slide open as opposed to only the rear one on the original. This was due to the manufacturing process requiring a vertical bar halfway along the window if the front pane was fixed. To make them look more like the original ones, front as well as rear sliding panes were decided on for the new window. Moreton on Lugg. 21st Sept 2014.
Nation : Czechoslovakia
Pavilion Name : Czechoslovakia Pavilion
Subject : Fashion
Island : Ile Notre Dame
Description : Pieces from Czechoslovakian designer collections. Found in the "Inspiration" themed section of the pavilion.
General Description:
The two storey Czechoslovakia Pavilion consisted of two buildings linked by an entrance hall. A simple, clear architectural strategy provided a harmonious backdrop for the exhibition's exciting displays. The first building featured two levels of exhibition space with a central courtyard which drew some of the largest crowds at Expo. Czechoslovakian art, technology and industry were presented to visitors through an attractive mixture of light, sound and video. The Hall of Centuries exhibit showcased texts and artifacts from ancient royalty. In the Hall of Tradition, visitors could find old and new glass and crystal and learn about their manufacturing processes. The World of Children enchanted the pavilion's younger visitors featuring puppet shows performing traditional tales. The second building featured four restaurants; Le Bistro served light snacks; the Bratislava Inn was a wine tavern; the Castle Restaurant featured fine Czechoslovakian cuisine; and the Prague was home to the famous pilsener Urquell beer. Offices, a gift shop and a theatre could also be found in this second Czechoslovakian building.

"Centre to stimulate industies under way
The Hunter technology Development Centre –an independent project dedicated to the improvement and diversification of Region’s industrial base for the creation of more jobs –is being built in the University’s grounds.
A building form which the centre will initially operate has been almost completed at the Faculty of Engineering and site clearance preparations for the much larger main complex have been undertaken adjacent the Kintaiba Community Child Care Centre.
The two projects required funding of approximately $5,000,000 being provided by the Federal and New South Wales Governments through the Steel Regions and Advanced Technology Programmes. An allocation of 1,000,000 for equipment is included.
Mr Lionel Wisby, Director of the Hunter Technology Development Centre, sees the centre as stimulating existing and new companies and individuals to develop new product and goods for export and providing a technological resource and consulting base for the region.
‘There is a huge range of venture capital in Australia and when this is linked with technological skills, such as those available at Newcastle University, it usually results in successful commercialisation’, he said.
The centre’s initial administration will be carried out in the annexe to the Faculty of Engineering, a building costing $500,000 with 750 square-metre floor area. Mr Wisby describes it as ‘the centre’s eventual hardware area’, because it will house machines and prototypes of manufacturing processes.
He is looking forward to TURNA Ltd., the University’s research and education consultancy, participating actively in various co-operative ventures with the centre.
The overall programme for the development of the $3,000,000 main complex embodies:
•The provision of an entrance in Rankin Drive, and a car park with access from the University.
•The erection of a two-story building with 2,750 square-metres floor space
•The division of the building into areas for offices and facilities, conference and meeting rooms, computing and data processing facilities, audio-visual facilities, exhibitions, quality assurance, an advanced manufacturing centre, incubator and research laboratories, an information service, consultant s’ offices and other uses, including possibly an atrium for environmental research.
‘People wanting to set up commercial enterprises will be able to obtain ‘incubator space, interact with each other’s ideas and gain technology skills,’ Mr Wisby said ‘We’ll even assist them to obtain finance and learn about marketing’.
Asked for comment on the University’s role in the project, the Director said it was up to the staff to participate or not, in the Centre’s functions, but if they wanted to ‘walk the extra mile and work to turn the Hunter Region and Australia around economically’ he was pleased to co-operate."

got this stapler for my birthday after lusting after it over at abodean in porter square. finally got around to cleaning it up a bit and taking some photos.
the hotchkiss model 1a was originally introduced in 1929. a re branded version of the star paper fastener co. inc.'s 1918 "star wire stapler." i'm not sure how old this particular stapler is, but from some pictures that i have seen this model had a nice chrome finish, which has worn away to a nice matte cast aluminum look. so this has probably seen a few years of use. the details on this nice artifact are pretty amazing, especially considering the manufacturing processes that were available in the early 1900s. it's built like a tank and still works great.
This was the main project for my Manufacturing Processes II course. This final product is polished cast lead. He was sculpted in Firm Super Sculpy and was molded using Tin-Sil 70-60 Mold Rubber from Polytek. He is my first stab at working in any kind of metal.

A Programmable Logic Controller (PLC), or programmable controller is an industrial digital computer which has been ruggedised and adapted for the control of manufacturing processes, such as assembly lines, or robotic devices, or any activity that requires high reliability control and ease of programming and process fault diagnosis.
They were first developed in the automobile industry to provide flexible, ruggedised and easily programmable controllers to replace hard-wired relays and timers. Since then they have been widely adopted as high-reliability automation controllers suitable for harsh environments. A PLC is an example of a "hard" real-time system since output results must be produced in response to input conditions within a limited time, otherwise unintended operation will result.

Since 1983 ESA astronauts have been taking part in numerous missions onboard the US space shuttle and the Russian MIR station, gaining a wealth of experience in many disciplines.
In 1998, the European Astronaut Centre was established in Germany to prepare European astronauts for missions to the International Space Station, ISS. Most have already flown on missions to the ISS, playing a vital role in the assembly and operation of key elements of the station.
They also carry out research in life sciences, human physiology and materials science in microgravity conditions, delivering results that cannot be achieved here on Earth. Such studies can help us in many areas on Earth, from understanding the causes of diseases or developing techniques for their prevention and treatment, to the introduction of new manufacturing processes.
In May 2009 six new astronauts were recruited to join the European Astronaut Corps to prepare for the next generation of human spaceflight and exploration. They will start training at the EAC in Cologne to prepare for future missions to the ISS, the Moon and beyond.

Museu del Disseny / Design Museum Barcelona, Spain
The Museu del Disseny de Barcelona brings together, under one roof, the collections of the Museu de les Arts Decoratives, the Museu de Ceràmica, the Museu Tèxtil i d'Indumentària and the Gabinet de les Arts Gràfiques, to showcase its vast heritage of more than 70,000 objects.
The Museu del Disseny is based on a common theme «From the decorative arts to design», and is dedicated to the culture of the object, focusing on pieces that are often from the everyday sphere, their design, manufacturing process, use and distribution, aesthetic and functional obsolescence, all from a 21st-century perspective.
The Disseny Hub Barcelona building was designed by MBM architects. The building comprises two parts: an underground section made possible by the change in level caused by the redevelopment of the square; and a block at street level, which cantilevers out towards the Plaça de les Glòries, 14.5 metres above the ground. This block houses the venues for long- and short-term temporary exhibitions, as well as a hall for events and a large auditorium. Most of the building's floor space is located below this level and houses key areas such as the main exhibition gallery, the documentation centre, research rooms, the bar and restaurant and the shop. The entire project complies with high environmental quality and sustainability standards which are achieved through a large-scale, self-sufficient energy system.

Our rental Nissan X-Trail has been driven in the mud at the customers site in Tuxpan, Mexico. There is no way to avoid the mud. Note the blue colour.
From a forum:
"The blue is caused by anti-oxidant/anti-ozinant oils added to the compounded rubber during the manufacturing process. This oil helps prevent weather checking and cracking. The oil migrates from the surface of the tire to the lighter coloured mud/dust where it can be seen. Some older tires will show pink/red. Different oil, same purpose."
I did not drive over any Smurfs...
