Specific picture descriptions: Photos above with "i" icons next to the bracketed sequence numbers (e.g. "[1] ") are described as follows:
1. CENI_120209_01.JPG: This mousetrap was on one of the shelves in the library
2. CENI_120518_025.JPG: U.S. Census Bureau's Centennial Quilt Carol Briggs, a Census Bureau employee commissioned by the Census Centennial Committee, created this work of art to commemorate our centennial. After 300 hours, she created a skillful and moving representation of our place in American history and our work as an organization to chronicle the past and illuminate the future. "Carol dedicated this quilt to her mother, Donna [???] Pendleton."
3. CENI_120518_038.JPG: "Bountiful Tree of Life" Sculpture by Sanford Werfel
4. CENI_120518_045.JPG: Census Bureau Tree of Honor In tribute to the men and women of the Census Bureau who, on or after September 11, 2011, have made significant contributions furthering the mission of the Census Bureau to be the preeminent collector and provider of timely, relevant, and quality data about the people and economy of the United States. In the course of making these contributions, some have made the ultimate sacrifice for our agency and country -- losing their lives. We celebrate their achievements and strive to build upon them to reach organizational heights that would make them proud.
5. CENI_120518_050.JPG: In memory of Marion Britton who gave her life in the service of America, New York Regional Office, September 11, 2001 In memory of Waleska Martinez who gave her life in the service of America, New York Regional Office, September 11, 2001 [Both of these individuals died in the September 11 attacks on the twin towers.]
6. CENI_120518_056.JPG: Although the stated purpose of this memorial is to honor those who "have made significant contributions furthering the mission of the Census Bureau", as of May 2012, no names have been honored for the ten years after the September 11 attacks.
7. CENI_120518_084.JPG: The Census Totem Pole: The Census Totem Pole was commissioned by the Seattle Regional Census Center as an outreach to the Native American population for the 2010 Census. After the artist, Tommy Joseph, completed the Totem Pole in Sitka, Alaska in February 2010, the Census Totem Pole traveled across Alaska and Washington states to events such as powwows, conferences and other community appearances.
8. CENI_121115_30.JPG: Mobile computing device, 2008
9. CENI_121115_39.JPG: Pantograph, 1890: Another Herman Hollerith invention, pantographs were used by Census Bureau employees to encode data uniformly on punch cards for processing and storage. ... Tabulators were designed to read the location of these holes and sort the punch cards accordingly. Holes punched in cards corresponded to individual, household, and other kinds of data collected by enumerators.
10. CENI_121115_40.JPG: Hollerith Key Punch, 1900: Adopted by the Census Bureau for the 1890 decennial census, the Hollerith key punch was used to record census return data on cards that could be read, counted, and sorted by the electromechanical Hollerith Tabulating System. The cards used with the key punch were about 3.5 by 8.5 inches, with round holes and 24 columns. These cards were approximately the same size as the U.S. paper dollars that were in circulation at the time of the decennial census. Hollerith Tabulating System: Illustrated and displayed here is a selection of images and artifacts that captures the innovative spirit and efficiency of the Census Bureau. Beginning in the late 19th century, the Census Bureau embraced new technologies to improve the speed and accuracy of its data collection and processing duties. The objects represented here were built to support the work of Census Bureau employees who relied on the electromechanical and data storage innovations of American inventor and former Census Bureau employee Herman Hollerith.
11. CENI_121115_44.JPG: Gang Punch, 1890: The Hollerith gang punch tool was used to record geographic codes on the punch cards for electromechanical sorting by the Hollerith Tabulating System.
12. CENI_121115_49.JPG: Hollerith Tabulator Dial, 1890 Developed by Herman Hollerith in the 1890s as part of his mechanical data processing system, this Hollerith tabulator dial was one of the gauges used to monitor the progress of the electromechanical devices that processed the punch cards.

2012 photos: Equipment this year: My mainstays were the Fuji S100fs, Nikon D7000, and the new Fuji X-S1. I also used an underwater Fuji XP50 and a Nikon D600. The first three cameras all broke this year and had to be repaired. Trips this year: three Civil War Trust conferences (Shepherdstown, WV, Richmond, VA, and Williamsburg, VA), a week-long family reunion cruise of the Caribbean, another week-long family reunion in the Wisconsin Dells (with lots of in-transit time in Ohio and Indiana), and my 7th consecutive San Diego Comic-Con trip (including side trips to Zion, Bryce, the Grand Canyon, etc). Ego strokes: I had a picture of Miss DC, Ashley Boalch, published in the Washington Post. I had a photograph of the George Segal San Francisco Holocaust memorial used as the cover of Quebec Francais (issue 165). Not being able to read French, I'm not entirely sure what the article is about but, hey! And I guess what could be considered to be a positive thing, my site is now established enough that spammers have noticed it and I had to block 17,000 file description postings for Viagra and whatever else.. Number of photos taken this year: just below 410,000.
