Technical Notes: Minolta XD7. The film emulsion was probably Rossmann's house brand of a ASA400 film, made in Japan, likely relabeled Fuji film sold under the Rossmann brand. This film does not exist anymore. Scanned on a PrimeFilm XAs in RAW with VueScan Pro, then processed in Lightroom with Negative Lab Pro.
The Museum of Egyptian Antiquities, known commonly as the Egyptian Museum or Museum of Cairo, in Cairo, Egypt, is home to an extensive collection of ancient Egyptian antiquities. It has 120,000 items, with a representative amount on display, the remainder in storerooms.
The museum’s exhibits span from the beginning of the Old Kingdom of Ancient Egypt (approximately 2700 BC) through the Greco-Roman period.The building consists of two floors. On the ground floor, you can follow the history of Egypt from the Old Kingdom up through the Greco-Roman period by turning left at the entrance and looping around the museum. This provides a good background for most of Egypt’s ancient history.
Upstairs the museum is organized thematically with a large portion of the area taken up the exhibit of the contents of Tutankhamun’s tomb, including his famous funerary mask. Also upstairs is the room dedicated to the beautiful jewelry discovered in the Royal Tombs of Tanis. Another highlight of the museum, the Royal Mummy Room, requires the purchase of a separate ticket. Inside you can see the mummies of some of Egypt’s most famous pharaohs, including Ramesses II, Seti I, and Egypt’s only queen, Hatshepsut.
The museum has so much to offer that it can be overwhelming. It suffers from the fact that much of the contents have not been relabeled or reorganized since they were first arranged in their cases over a century ago. The result is that some sections provide very little context for the artifacts and labels are shown in a variety of languages- French, English, Greek, German, and Arabic. The difficulty of navigating the exhibits is a common complaint by visitors and a good reason to have a guide with you.
New Grand Egyptian Museum: At the edge of the ancient pyramids of Giza, some 5,000 construction workers labor around the clock to finish the long-awaited Grand Egyptian Museum. Expected to open by the end of this year, the 5.2-million-square-foot structure will become the world's largest museum devoted to a single civilization. Costing more than $1 billion, the museum will re-house and restore some of the country's most precious relics. Its expansive, glass-fronted building offers sweeping panoramas of the Giza plateau and Great Pyramids, which stand just two kilometers away.

I got these photos off the internet. This piece is not mine. However, someday I will own a Vibratone. They are the ultimate in cool! Hammond made these spinning speakers and then they were relabeled by other companies like Fender, Selmer (in the U.K) and others including Hammond.
Jaxon cracker 1880. Nabisco purchased this patent from Jaxon cracker and relabeled the cute round cracker "Ritz". It was a way of fancifying the plain old saltine. This box was on ebay and I got pics.
I have found corn pone or cornmeal mush stuff for sale in the grocery store. It's sold in tubes by the pre-made cookie dough. Anyway, it's made by Jaxon but it's now located in Ohio. The crackers were stamped "JAXON", not "Jackson".
edit: Cheri's etsy shop clearly states the following are the ingredients in her blushes:
*Organic Mineral Blush
mica, sericite, black iron oxide, red iron oxide, yellow iron oxide, camellia sinensis (organic white tea) extract, vitis vinifera (organic grapeseed) extract."
You can see from the UNCOVERED label above, that is not the case at all in these products I have here.
_______________________________________________
In light of the current situation with Orglamix/Candy Glam right now - you can read about it here: www.notmakingitup.net/2011/02/seriously-orglamix-seriousl... - i decided to go check out my Orglamix products (which have all been purchased in the last 3-4 months, nothing earlier) for any relabels, just to make sure. This is what I found when I looked at 3 recent blushes (one is not pictured - Coriander) purchased less than a month ago. The only label I could actually remove in a legible fashion was Nutmeg, as seen here - however the other two have the same duplicate labels underneath that I could read when held up to the light.
I had concerns about these being private label products with Orglamix labels slapped on top. However, there were no brand names on the bottom labels, and the color names did match the Orglamix labels.
Cheri did reply to my concerns and said the following when I asked if these were relabeled Orglamix products, or relabeled NON-Orglamix products:
"I have newer labels with my logo & anything that has been relabeled has been because of that or a misspelling or a name change. Sometimes I create a shade; and then I don't like the name or decide to... change it for any given reason. Sometimes we just goof -- between filling and labeling like when we labeled all the Cerise / Celestite. I've put Blueberry stickers on Indigo and Neroli on Lilly Pilly - they're close colors. Everything is hand done, so it happens, but when I notice it, I fix it.
I consider a limited edition something that I've mixed in a small quantity; or something that isn't going to be introduced into the core line. Like when I hit 15,000 fans, I was going to introduce a new color into the core line as Truffle, but ultimately decided it was better to do a limited edition as Phantasmagoria, so I changed those. Same thing with Cypress, I felt it was too close to Mint & Moss so instead of adding it to the core line, I made it a limited edition Mistletoe. It really depends on what I want to create on any given day."
This one is in the cafeteria in the Student Union. The horn on this one is a Standard Electric Time Company 450, which is basically a relabeled Federal Signal Vibratone 450. Almost all of the fire alarms in this building are like this, and most of the pulls are the old round ones also made by Standard.
UPDATE: This fire alarm has been replaced! The "FIRE" light was removed and had some electrical tape in its place, and replacing the horn is a Faraday U-HNH-MCS. Pics to come!
from your local bullshit food supplier who relabeled it as their own..but it really came from somewhere else
More from my promenade yesterday early evening. I had an enjoyable nightshift developing and scanning the film with some fresh brewed, delicious coffee, enriched with a "spiritual" agent called brandy. At the moment, this is one of my personally favoured pics besides all my people photography of course. A simple, 10000 times seen subject only worth being shot because of the beautiful light. That's the reason for the title of the small series.
Porst Compact Reflex SP (relabeled 70's M42 Cosina) and 1.7/50 Porst lens. If I could keep only one cam I would be tempted to stick with this one. I have better cams from a technical point of view and much more charismatic cams like my beloved Bessa 66, but the Porst (Cosina) was sold billion times, is extremely robust, takes decent pictures with cheap film and will still work when all recent cameras will be rotten since ages :-P Isn't that really frugal?
Sorry for my gobbledegook.

shelves added by Tom and Ron; top shelf xmas-we didn't touch; bottom 4 shelves we opened, sorted, repacked and relabeled every box of books for ease of locating a specific book for both Mom and Dad.

Vacant for over a year now, and up for lease. No takers as of yet.
I'll see if I can get a decent daylight shot within the next day or so. The crappy gray skies have not been cooperative.
I used to go here with Mom quite often when I was younger. Back when they had a toy department, when I was just starting out in college, I bought my Worlds of Wonder "Laser Tag" gear here. I'm still mad at myself for not picking up JetFire from Transformers G1. (Man, that is one of my many, many regrets - Hasbro just relabeled and repainted a Valkyrie from Super Dimension Fortress Macross.)

The museum’s exhibits span from the beginning of the Old Kingdom of Ancient Egypt (approximately 2700 BC) through the Greco-Roman period.The building consists of two floors. On the ground floor, you can follow the history of Egypt from the Old Kingdom up through the Greco-Roman period by turning left at the entrance and looping around the museum. This provides a good background for most of Egypt’s ancient history.
Upstairs the museum is organized thematically with a large portion of the area taken up the exhibit of the contents of Tutankhamun’s tomb, including his famous funerary mask. Also upstairs is the room dedicated to the beautiful jewelry discovered in the Royal Tombs of Tanis. Another highlight of the museum, the Royal Mummy Room, requires the purchase of a separate ticket. Inside you can see the mummies of some of Egypt’s most famous pharaohs, including Ramesses II, Seti I, and Egypt’s only queen, Hatshepsut.
The museum has so much to offer that it can be overwhelming. It suffers from the fact that much of the contents have not been relabeled or reorganized since they were first arranged in their cases over a century ago. The result is that some sections provide very little context for the artifacts and labels are shown in a variety of languages- French, English, Greek, German, and Arabic. The difficulty of navigating the exhibits is a common complaint by visitors and a good reason to have a guide with you.
New Grand Egyptian Museum: At the edge of the ancient pyramids of Giza, some 5,000 construction workers labor around the clock to finish the long-awaited Grand Egyptian Museum. Expected to open by the end of this year, the 5.2-million-square-foot structure will become the world's largest museum devoted to a single civilization. Costing more than $1 billion, the museum will re-house and restore some of the country's most precious relics.

Outgoing mail. The green and white envelope and the light blue with red numbers envelope were originally sent to me and then I relabeled them and sent them back out.
Greenwich Millennium Dome [The O2 Arena]
Designed by architect Richard Rogers, engineered by Buro Happold, costing 750 million pounds sterling.
Focus of media attention on the night of 31st December 1999.
It has two 2500 seat cinemas/theatres; 12 time zones with the 12 supporting tower poles sticking out through the roof, to look like a clock from above. In a few years it became a "white elephant" , costing £1 million per month to maintain.
In 2005 the site had new owners, Anschutz Entertainment Group, who relabeled the Dome "The O2 Arena"
To visit The O2 the best transport is the underground railway, you have to get off at the North Greenwich stop.
Sandwich Shop in France, 2012
Light retouching in GIMP to smoothen out some dust, still left enough for ambience! That is the actual border, no cropping and no Instagram filters on this one.
This Dharma station, also known as "The Mudflap Girl", is located in what appears to be an abandoned warehouse in Barstow, California. The "Truck Stop" serves as the collection, relabeling, and trans-shipment facility for all goods originating in the United States and destined for the Island.

Large puzzle, semi-interlocking.
I really like !
The (rice?) paper is crumpled which gives an interesting texture. The colors are very bright.
on the box it is written "one piece missing in 1926 and 2 pieces missing in 1932, 2 pieces are still missing.
The box resembles the Esman Frères perplexity boxes, the box also mentions the zig-zag brand. It's as if Brentano's was not a puzzle manufacturer but a reseller of puzzles relabeled with its brand.

On the ground floor, you can follow the history of Egypt from the Old Kingdom up through the Greco-Roman period by turning left at the entrance and looping around the museum. This provides a good background for most of Egypt’s ancient history.
Upstairs the museum is organized thematically with a large portion of the area taken up the exhibit of the contents of Tutankhamun’s tomb, including his famous funerary mask. Also upstairs is the room dedicated to the beautiful jewelry discovered in the Royal Tombs of Tanis. Another highlight of the museum, the Royal Mummy Room, requires the purchase of a separate ticket. Inside you can see the mummies of some of Egypt’s most famous pharaohs, including Ramesses II, Seti I, and Egypt’s only queen, Hatshepsut.
The museum has so much to offer that it can be overwhelming. It suffers from the fact that much of the contents have not been relabeled or reorganized since they were first arranged in their cases over a century ago. The result is that some sections provide very little context for the artifacts and labels are shown in a variety of languages- French, English, Greek, German, and Arabic. The difficulty of navigating the exhibits is a common complaint by visitors and a good reason to have a guide with you.
New Grand Egyptian Museum: At the edge of the ancient pyramids of Giza, some 5,000 construction workers labor around the clock to finish the long-awaited Grand Egyptian Museum. Expected to open by the end of this year, the 5.2-million-square-foot structure will become the world's largest museum devoted to a single civilization. Costing more than $1 billion, the museum will re-house and restore some of the country's most precious relics. Its expansive, glass-fronted building offers sweeping panoramas of the Giza plateau and Great Pyramids, which stand just two kilometers away.
