I came by these wonderful old B & W photos by way of my aunt. She was at a Scrap Booking convention/ retreat in the Red Woods of northern Calif. This woman sitting at the same table as my aunt, threw out three old photo albums full of family photos & post cards from the late 1800s to the early 1900s. The lady said the albums once belonged to her mother in law and since she didn't know the people in the photos she tossed the albums in the trash. My aunt later went dumpster diving and initially gave me one album and she kept the other two, then had a change of mind and gave me the other two albums.
You don't have to know the people to enjoy the photos. Well just like the old sayings go, "A picture is worth a 1000 words", or "One man's trash is another man's treasure"
Hey I could use a little help. If you recognize people or places or vehicles please speak up, add your comments please.

Pruebas y Desarrollo del JABULANI de adidas
adidas ha producido balones oficiales de alto desempeño desde 1963 y es el principal productor en el mundo. Aun así, le tomó a adidas más de tres años de investigación y desarrollo a profundidad para presentar el JABULANI, su mejor balón. Gracias al revolucionario perfil “Grip’n’Groove” y la completamente nueva forma en 3D de los paneles, les ofrece a los mejores jugadores en el mundo un balón que permite un vuelo excepcionalmente estable y un agarre perfecto bajo todas las condiciones. Ahora los jugadores pueden mostrar sus verdaderas habilidades, ya que las características de calidad y desempeño son exactamente idénticas cada vez que se patea el balón.
El Equipo de Innovación de adidas (a.i.t. por sus siglas en inglés) han probado rigurosamente el nuevo balón para la Copa Mundial FIFA 2010 en Sudáfrica TM, primero bajo las más altas condiciones en laboratorio posibles, y después con jugadores profesionales y clubes en el campo de juego. Las pruebas científicas fueron llevadas a cabo en conjunto con el Grupo de Investigación en Tecnología del Deporte de la Universidad de Loughborough, una de las principales instituciones en su tipo en el mundo. Las pruebas confirmaron que el JABULANI de adidas es más redondo y tiene un vuelo más estable que cualquier balón de la competencia.
FIFA diseñó un concepto de calidad para garantizar que los mejores jugadores del mundo tengan balones certificados bajo los más altos estándares. Solo después de una serie de rigurosas pruebas un balón recibe el sello de “aprobación de la FIFA”. Las pruebas llevadas a cabo en el laboratorio de futbol de adidas en Scheinfeld y en el Centro de Pruebas de la Universidad de Loughborough probaron que el JABULANI de adidas no sólo cumple con esos estándares sino que excede prácticamente cada uno de ellos.
Prueba de la circunferencia
Una circunferencia consistente es importante para permitir un control óptimo durante los dribles o al llevar el balón. Para calcular la circunferencia promedio, cada balón de juego es medido en 10 puntos diferentes.
El estándar de aprobación de la FIFA: 68.5 cm – 69.5 cm
El adidas JABULANI: 69.0 cm (+/- 0.2 cm)
Prueba de la redondez permanente
Sólo un balón perfectamente redondo permite a un jugador aprovechar al máximo sus habilidades. Entre más perfecta la esfera es, más balanceado será un balón en vuelo, así como su puntería y lo predecible de su patrón de vuelo. La nueva forma en 3D de sus paneles armoniza la distribución de la energía y minimizan el monto en las esquinas, mientras que con paneles más grandes permiten un área más amplia para patear el balón.
El diámetro del balón es medido en 16 lugares diferentes, después de lo cual se calcula el promedio. La diferencia entre el mayor diámetro y el menor debe estar dentro de límites muy estrictos.
El estándar de aprobación de la FIFA: diferencia máxima de 1.5%
El adidas JABULANI: diferencia máxima de 1.0%
Prueba de absorción de agua
Un balón mojado y pesado se comporta muy diferente de uno seco. Vuela en el aire más lentamente, tiene un bote más bajo y es más difícil de poner efecto en el. La tecnología de pegado patentada por adidas “Termal Bonding” hace al balón virtualmente a prueba de agua. Como resultado el nuevo Balón muestra características de desempeño completamente homogéneas al jugar en condiciones secas o mojadas.
Para la prueba de absorción de agua, el balón es presionado y rotado en un contenedor con agua 250 veces, después de las cuales el balón fue pesado. También el agua fue pesada antes y después de la prueba.
El estándar de aprobación de la FIFA: absorción de agua: no mayor a un incremento del 10% del peso
El adidas JABULANI: absorción de agua: no mayor a un incremento del 0% del peso
Prueba de peso perfecto (420 – 445 gramos)
Cada partido se juega con un número específico de balones. Estos distintos balones necesitan desempeñarse de la misma manera. La consistencia en el peso es crucial. Si un balón es muy ligero o muy pesado, se puede mover de manera diferente en el aire.
El estándar de aprobación de la FIFA: peso entre 420 y 445 gramos
El adidas JABULANI: peso de 440 gramos (+/- 2 gramos)
Prueba de retención de forma y tamaño
Durante un juego promedio el balón es pateado aproximadamente 2,000 veces. Sin embargo, en el último minuto del tiempo extra, el balón necesita desempeñarse idénticamente a como lo hizo en el minuto uno del juego.
Para probar la retención de forma y tamaño, el balón es disparado contra una placa de metal 2,000 veces a una velocidad de 50 km por hora para la marca aprobada por la FIFA. Después de esta prueba, sólo se permiten pequeños cambios en la presión del aire y redondez y la válvula y uniones deben mantenerse sin daños.
El estándar de aprobación de la FIFA: 2,000 ciclos a 50 km por hora
El adidas JABULANI: 3,500 ciclos a 50 km por hora
Prueba del tambor
La prueba del tambor fue desarrollada por adidas para garantizar la alta calidad y durabilidad de la superficie del balón, el diseño y visual del mismo. Al igual que el +TeamgeistTM de adidas, el JABULANI también tiene una tecnología de impresión especial, que proporciona al JABULANI el mejor y más fuerte material de superficie a la fecha, que garantiza la durabilidad del mismo y que mantendrá su visual por mucho más tiempo.
Prueba de rebote uniforme
Los jugadores necesitan poder anticipar cómo responderá el balón para poder controlar un pase usando su pecho, muslo o pie.
Para esta prueba, el balón se deja caer 10 veces a una placa de acero desde una altura de 2 metros. La diferencia entre el rebote más alto y el más bajo no debe ser mayor a 10 cm.
El estándar de aprobación de la FIFA: No más de 10 cm
El adidas JABULANI: 143 cm medidos a 20°C
Prueba de Pérdida de presión
Si un balón pierde presión durante un juego, será difícil predecir su movimiento y puede que no sea consistente, haciendo que los pases largos y cambios de juego sean casi imposibles.
Para esta prueba, el balón es inflado a su máximo y tres días después se mide la presión del aire. No debe haber perdido más del porcentaje de aire especificado.
El estándar de aprobación de la FIFA: Pérdida máxima de presión de 20%
El adidas JABULANI: Pérdida máxima de presión de 10%
