The most significant architectural historic element of Montalbano, Elicona is the castle which dominates a haphazard and tortuous medieval urban fabric, meandering up and down the alleyways, molding itself to the configuration of the rocky promontory.The little houses constructed in sandstone are filled with authentic history, although in certain places a sense of abandonment is felt which should disappear with the planned restoration works.Erected on pre-existing Byzantine and Arab structures, the upper part of the castle is comprised of a Norman-Suevian fortress, while the lower part is made up of a fortified Suevian-Aragonese palatium (palace).The upper part, a rectangular fortress, is enclosed on its two extremities by two towers, one with a square plan and the other, typically Suevian, with a pentagonal plan, which functions as a donjon.The embattled perimeter walls date back to the Suevian period, and represent the most important and best preserved a saettiere defensive configuration in Sicily. The date 1270 still engraved in the cover of the large cistern is evidence of its Angevin phase.Instead it is to Frederick II of Aragon that we owe that reconstruction of the edifice and its transformation from fortress to regiae aedes, royal residence for summer sojourn (1302-08). The sovereign had eighteen large windows open on to the perimeter walls above the Suevian embrasures as well as a considerable number of portals and gates. Thanks to the modifications executed by the Aragonese king, the castle of Montalbano is one of the most coherent and harmonious of the Sicilian Middle Ages. The most extraordinary element in the entire castle is the royal chapel of the Byzantine era, which according to some scholars preserves the remains of Arnaldo da Villanova, one of the most important personages of his time. Physician, alchemist and religious reformer suspected of heresy, he died in 1310, and his numerous stays in Montalbano with king Frederick are well documented.
Il castello Svevo-Aragonese rappresenta l’elemento architettonico più illustre del luogo. Fulcro del centro storico, domina il suggestivo borgo medioevale, irregolare e tortuoso, che si adatta alla conformazione del promontorio roccioso.
Fu edificato e fortificato dall’Imperatore Federico II di Svevia intorno all’anno 1210 su preesistenti costruzioni bizantine ed arabe, raso al suolo a seguito di una rivolta popolare nel 1233, venne ricostruito tra il 1302 e 1308 dal re Federico II d’Aragona, e trasformato in reggia aedes, residenza reale per i soggiorni estivi, raggiungendo in quel tempo il massimo splendore. Egli trasformò il corpo svevo da fortezza a reggia, donandogli quell’imponenza elegante e composta che ne fanno un unicum nel suo genere, per cui il castello è costituito in alto da una piazzaforte normanno-sveva e in basso dal palatium fortificato svevo-aragonese.Sui lati corti spiccano due torri, una rettangolare, l’altra pentagonale. Nei vasti ambienti definiti da muri incisi da eleganti portali in pietra, si scorgono le zone un tempo adibite alla guardia, ai magazzini, alla rappresentanza, agli alloggi reali.L’elemento più straordinario dell’intero castello è la “cappella reale”, riconoscibile come “tricora” o “cuba” di epoca bizantina, caratterizzata da tre absidi, di cui le due laterali ricavate direttamente nello spessore delle mura e da tracce di affreschi. Qui, secondo il Fazello (1490-1570), sembra abbia avuto sepoltura Arnaldo da Villanova, medico, alchimista e riformatore religioso, morto intorno al 1310 e del quale sono attestate numerose presenze a Montalbano insieme al re Federico.

The space configuration of CELLULOID JAM relies on the Möbius strip.
If you let your finger run across the complete surface of Celluloid Jam, no matter where you would start, you could
a) go in one round from exterior to interior and back to your starting point without taking a break.
b) touch every point on the exterior as well as on the interior and returning back to your starting point without lifting your finger once.

This is a photograph from the 4th and final round of the 2017 Pat Finnerty Memorial 5KM Road League which was held in Belvedere House and Gardens, Mullingar, Co. Westmeath, Ireland on Wednesday 24th May 2017 at 20:00. This is the final round and consequently some of the decisions around the final configuration of the category prizes are still open for resolution. The Road League is promoted and organised by Mulligar Harriers Athletic Club and sponsored by local sponsors including O'Brien's Renault dealership. This is a very well established as an annual event which takes place on every Wednesday night in the month of May. Tonight's weather was absolutely wonderful. Warm summer air filled the Belvedere area as the runners were treated to perfect summer weather. Just under 200 participants took part in the race which runs a traffic free course over a mix of road and hilly forest trail. Congratulations are due to all of the Mullingar Harriers club who put this excellent series together.
Timing and event management was provided by http://www.myrunresults.com/. Their website will contain the results to today's race.

ShareAlike – anyone can use these photographs, and make changes if they like, or incorporate them into a bigger project, but they must make those changes available back to the community under the same terms.
Above all what Creative Commons aims to do is to encourage creative sharing. See some examples of Creative Commons photographs on Flickr: www.flickr.com/creativecommons/
I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?
As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:
►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera
►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set
►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone
►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!
You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.
Don't like your photograph here?
That's OK! We understand!
If, for any reason, you are not happy or comfortable with your picture appearing here in this photoset on Flickr then please email us at petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com and we will remove it as soon as possible. We give careful consideration to each photograph before uploading.
I want to tell people about these great photographs!
Great! Thank you! The best link to spread the word around is probably http://www.flickr.com/peterm7/sets

taping the bars was kinda tricky, I'll try a new method next time.
running the brake levers up by the shifters was not permitted due to cable routing, but it works well this way. when I get back into the swing of commuting, the bars will come down :)

Well I have to walk away from this gun system for a while, until i return to it, I leave you with my M4 like configuration with Nekpo's Elko Tech Stock, and my clamp-on suppressor with hand-guarding heat shield.
This is the original configuration of my "reiver" epee @ 2003. It was custom made for me by Marco Boromei of MKA (Marco/Krieger Armory) based on a 16th century rapier found in the Border region of Scotland. The hilt design was adapted to make it legal for use with an epee blade in SCA (Society fo Creative Anachronism) light weapons combat. Specifically, the rings were filled and the supporting bars were removed to lessen the chance of an opponents blade binding and breaking. I added the leather pads on the back of the filled rings after a couple of bruised knuckles.
Shilton church is a mostly 14th/15th century building with a west tower and an unusual configuration of no aisle on the south side of the nave but a double one to the north; the outer aisle is a Victorian addition by George Gilbert Scott when he restored the church in 1865.
The interior is fairly dark with the south nave wall and north arcade leaning outwards dramatically (also an odd hollowed out piscina recess in the south east nave window recess). The fittings are mostly Victorian, but the pieces of tracery on the low chancel screen panelling are fragments of the 15th century rood screen. The stained glass is Victorian too, (the east window by Clayton & Bell, others by Hardman's) but two windows have 14th century elements, the west window in the tower with some fragmentary grisaille and red glass, whilst in the nave clerestorey are two shields of the Earl of Essex.
The church is usually kept locked outside of service times; I owed my first visit to the help of a kind churchwarden who unlocked for me. On this occasion my former colleagues from Norgrove Studios were working on a south nave window enabling me to revisit and give a short talk on the glass (in addition to much improving my photographic record).
Inveneo is proud to be an implementing partner with Creative Associates in the Tanzania 21st Century Basic Education Program (Tz21) where our role is to lead the technology intervention design and deployment with Kicheko Ltd, our Inveneo Certified ICT Partner (ICIP) in Tanzania. Together, Inveneo and Kicheko have been instrumental in introducing sustainable technology solutions that are relevant to rural Tanzanian schools that often lack electrical power and ICT skilled staff.
Recently we passed a major milestone in the program - the deployment of information and communication technologies to 5 pilot schools.
Dr. H.E. Kavishe of Kicheko, Wayan Vota and Jen Overgaag of Inveneo, assisted by a cadre of Kicheko technicians, installed a mix of laptops, desktops, LED projectors and related networking and power equipment at Naliendele, Kambarage, Darajani, and Kisiwandui Primary Schools, and Machakaeni Teacher Center.
The pilot deployment is testing technology configurations and the installation was used to train local engineers on Inveneo installation methodologies in preparation for the major ICT deployment to all schools, scheduled for early 2012.

I went on a one day workshop at Blade Rubber just before Xmas - run by Susie Jefferson and she taught us how to make this Tim Holtz's Configurations box. Since it was nearing Xmas naturally it was themed accordingly.
We were supplied with practically all the materials need to create this box but as the workshop lasted only 4hrs we had to complete them at home.
I really enjoyed making this and choosing all the different elements to include and the lights just make it all the more magical I think.
Gave this as an Xmas pressie to my daughters mother-in-law who absolutely loved it and will treasure it always.

One day, I'll actually buy a computer that is ready to go the instant I turn it on. One that doesn't require four hours to fight with the OS over whether there's a wireless card inside and, more importantly, which one is it.
(Oo, even better. Once I finally finished? The inverter for the screen died. So I have to replace that, too. Whee! Thank goodness for eBay)

The name of our ship was "Freedom of the Seas". I found the bit of coral and the brown spiral shell on the beach at St. Maarten. The flamingo was from an old costume necklace of my Mom's - I colored it with alcohol inks. The key has the word "journey" etched in it.
