This machine is not on display, but is still sitting on what was once the old Fresno Ranch. I can't figure out what it did.

Lake Worth Beach is a city in Palm Beach County, Florida, United States, which takes its name from the body of water along its eastern border known as the Lake Worth Lagoon. The lake itself was named for General William J. Worth, who led U.S. forces during the last part of the Second Seminole War. As of 2010, the population estimated by the U.S. Census Bureau was 34,910. It is a principal city of the Miami metropolitan area, which was home to an estimated 6,012,331 people in 2015.
Lake Worth Beach was incorporated as the "Town of Lake Worth" in June 1913. Many of the first residents were farmers from other parts of the American south and mid-west, looking to benefit from the growing winter vegetable market of the time. The city benefited with the rest of south Florida during the Florida land boom of the 1920s. A wooden automobile traffic bridge over Lake Worth was completed in 1919. The first casino and municipal beach complex was completed shortly thereafter. The 1920s also saw the completion of the Gulf Stream Hotel, now on the National Register of Historic Places.
The city was severely damaged in the 1928 hurricane, toppling the bell tower on the elementary school (today the City Hall Annex) and destroying the beachfront casino and automobile bridge over Lake Worth. This led to a severe economic decline within the community, during the Great Depression. Things were so dire in the city in the 1930s, that President Franklin D. Roosevelt's Works Progress Administration built a striking, moorish-styled "City Gymnasium" on the corner of Lake Avenue and Dixie Highway. The building today serves as City Hall.
William A. Boutwell, who ran the Boutwell Dairy from 1927 to 1956, is credited with inventing half & half creamer; the dairy later merged with Alfar Creamery and then T.G. Lee, who distributed the product more widely until it became an American diner staple.
Development started again after World War II with many modest pensioners, especially from Quebec, Finland, and eventually Germany, moving to the city and building 1,000-square-foot (93 m2) cottages. These new immigrants brought their industrious nature with them as well as their native customs, restaurants, shops, and churches and for decades the town flourished. To this day, one can find an abundance of beer halls, chocolatiers, Bavarian delicatessens, and Lutheran churches, which stand out in the semitropical urban sprawl of South Florida.
The South Florida construction boom brought a new wave of immigrants in the past few decades. Central Americans have added a Hispanic aspect to Lake Worth's culture. Included in the 1980s immigration were many Guatemalan-Mayans who consider themselves indigenous people, rather than "Hispanic" or "Latino" and some may not speak Spanish. They mostly converse in Mam, Q'anjob'al, or any one of 22 existing Mayan languages spoken in Guatemala. Adding to the racial and linguistic mix of the city is a large Haitian population, speaking Haitian Creole and French.
During a short period of neglect and decline in the 1980s and 1990s, Lake Worth, in the words of then-city commissioner Dennis Dorsey, "had become known as the skin-flick capital of the country." The venue now known as the Lake Worth Playhouse was the Playtoy, and was well known in Palm Beach County as the theater that showed x-rated movies; Deep Throat was shown there, motivating a police raid.
The downtown area has seen a huge resurgence in interest and now sports an array of art galleries, sidewalk cafés and night clubs. Once moribund property values have soared. The city's main street, Lake Avenue, contains some of the oldest commercial structures in South Florida, including the Art Deco Lake Worth Playhouse.
The city was hit especially hard by Hurricanes Frances, Jeanne, and Wilma in 2004 and 2005. The fishing pier was quite damaged but was repaired (with the help of FEMA) and reopened in May 2009. The pier is currently open to the public with entry fees of $1 per adult sightseer, and $3 per adult fisherman. The city's public swimming pool has been restored, and besides serving to instruct Palm Beach County residents in swimming and water safety, hosts water-sport competitions. The pier is home to a tide gauge with a sporadic history, showing an above average rate of sea level rise.
In 2015, the city was accused of asking for business licenses from surrounding churches.
In 2019 a ballot initiative to change the name of the city to Lake Worth Beach passed with a narrow margin. The city states that the name change "will be implemented slowly".

In African cities, dumping waste in open spaces is common, primarily because of a lack of waste treatment facilities. The photo shows an example in the Pissy neighbourhood, where garbage is regularly burned. In the background, recycling of some waste (scrap metal, plastic containers, fabric, etc.) is visible. In recent years, the government and the municipality of Ouagadougou have implemented measures to mitigate urban pollution. These include improving collection services and banning the distribution of plastic bags in shops.
Dans les villes africaines, le déversement de déchets dans les espaces vides est une pratique courante, due essentiellement à l'absence de sites de traitement des déchets. La photo montre un exemple dans le quartier de Pissy, avec la crémation régulière des ordures. Au fond, on aperçoit une activité de recyclage de certains déchets (ferraille, récipients en plastique, tissu...). Le gouvernement et la municipalité de Ouagadougou ont mené, durant ces dernières années, des mesures pour atténuer la pollution urbaine. Il s'agit notamment de l'amélioration des services de collecte et de l'interdiction de la distribution de sachets en plastique dans les commerces.

A tractor dragging a simple implement reconditions the soil surface for barrel racing. The device serves to break up dirt clumps and compacted areas in order to even up the dirt surface. Regular conditioning occurs between every 5 contestants.
An interested spectator (not a contestant) astride a horse watches the action.

700 years ago, The Akmaddian Empire sprawled central Historica. With its formidable cavalry's lightning tactics, it was able to conquer a massive area ranging from the cool steppe of southern Avalonia to the arid scrublands of northern Kaliphlin. Among the many races that fell under its domain was a large population of centaurs. Military cooperation between centaurs on non-centaurs (referred "two-legs" by the former) was historically limited. There rare instances of archers sitting on the backs of centaurs to operate as "tail-gunners", but these were rare.
The Akmaddians implemented a new role for their centaur soldiers: drawing chariots. A centaur didn't need to be controlled by whoever was in the chariot, allowing those inside to focus on the battle. Passengers could include archers or pike men. Usually fighting in duos, these teams were trained for years to master their craft, something which would pay off as they blazed a path across the continent.
The Akmaddian God-Emperor would eventually fall in battle, and the empire would fracture as his children battled for the throne. Though the empire only lasted 20 years, its effect on central Historican culture can still be felt today

The Setep implement was used during the ceremony of the Opening of the Mouth, giving back to the deceased energy and vitality, before placing the mummy in the tomb.

Let me just say that the way Nikon implemented live view on the D300 rocks my world for close-up work and still life. For this image I used it to hand focus very precisely zoomed in on the petals and leaves. Not only that, but this mode features a mirror lock-up procedure which helps to reduce blur from the mirror slap. This was shot at ISO 100 (1 EV under 200 ISO setting), and it seems not half bad. For strobist info see below in the comments.

Dice are implements used for generating random numbers in a variety of social and gambling games. Known since antiquity, dice have been called the oldest gaming instruments. They are typically cube-shaped and marked with one to six dots on each face. The most common method of dice manufacture involves injection molding of plastic followed by painting.
Dice have been used for gaming and divination purposes for thousands of years. Evidence found in Egyptian tombs has suggested that this civilization used them as early as 2000 b.c. Other data shows that primitive civilizations throughout the Americas also used dice. These dice were composed of ankle bones from various animals. Marked on four faces, they were likely used as magical devices that could predict the future. The ancient Greeks and Romans used dice made of bone and ivory. The dice of most of these early cultures were made in numerous shapes and sizes.
The modern day cubical dice originated in China and have been dated back as early as 600 b.c. They were most likely introduced to Europe by Marco Polo during the fourteenth century.

This tiny settlement is famous for producing the grey marble used for the SA Parliament House. The hotel here dates from 1855. It was a busy hotel when dozens of bullock teams passed through every week. The town was laid out as a private town with 35 building blocks in 1859 by one of the business and civic leaders of Kapunda William Oldham. A flourmill was built by 1859 opposite the hotel. Opposite the hotel there is now a private agricultural museum with strippers; seed graders; balers; rakes; mowers; drills; seeders; ploughs etc all lined up. The town had a state school and several stores in its heyday. Near the settlement were several churches but the only one surviving is Allen’s Creek Lutheran Church which was built in 1907. It replaced an earlier Primitive Methodist Church built on that same spot on which it was erected in 1864. Within the town was a small Bible Christian Methodist church built in 1861. It was demolished long ago (around 1917) but a small cemetery remains. The first town school began operating in 1860 in Allendale. Around 1890 the state government built a fine brick and stone Gothic style school. It closed in the 1940s and is now a fine residence. Just beyond this little town is a lone grave in a large paddock. The grave is surrounded by a cast iron fence and one large Pepper Tree, Schinus mollis which keeps guard. The inscriptions reads Scotty’s Grave 1846, erected by subscription.
