I also found this in the description of a web site (haven't had time to check the lengthy document to see how it's actually used):

Most shipyards and ship repair facilities already have the vast majority of the ... Freshwater and Saltwater Wash-down of Ship • Graving Dock, On-Block Area, Building Ways ...

I don't normally nish cap departments or working titles, but this is one of "those" depos that I'm forced to nish cap this stuff, so I'm thinking On-Block Area.  I hate it when transcripts get this nitpicky.

Thanks for your help, LeAnne.  Much appreciated.

I think it's on block.  I found this online:  "Block assembly in shipbuilding is mainly concerned with cutting and welding operations to construct a block. A block is composed of several steel plates and sections with various sizes and shapes."

on block?  en bloc?  something else?

Witness works as a shipbuilder.  There's an area of the ship called "on block."  He spelled it o-n b-l-o-c-k, but he also spelled Pena P-n-a and simvastatin s-i-m-i-b-a-t-i-n, so I'm not going to rely on his spelling capabilities.

Has anyone heard this term before and know what the correct spelling is?

I think it's emulsionizing wax.

I usually find most things from Google.  Sometimes, you have to try 2 or 3 different spellings.

I found it by going to google and putting in your phonetic spelling, then it came up with about four or five words asking if that's what I was lookiing for.

With Search Master it took less than a minute to find it.  With * as a wild card, all I had to do was type in d*z*l*n into the medical drugs category.  Adozelesin was at the top of the list.  BTW, it's not capitalized.  From there do a Google search to find out  information about the drug.

I searched through SearchMaster and found adozelesin.  Have not clue what it is, but it fits the phonetics.

Christina, I found Adozelesin, which is an anti-tumor drug, also used for other things too, and also Adapalene, which is used for Acne or keratosis pilaris, which is lesions on the skin.
