1916 Kurrajong Recruiting March
Early on the morning of 12 January 1916, Inverell witnessed a great day in its young history. A huge crowd assembled in the streets to farewell Inverell first contingent of The Kurrajongs. This group of 114 men was one of ten snowball recruiting marches held in NSW to encourage enlistment. At the time, these men were the largest group to leave a country town together for War Service.
Wearing white hats, the men marched from near the corner of Rivers and Otho Streets, to the Town Hall for the official farewell by the Mayor. The huge procession then proceeded down to Byron Street and on to the railway station, passing shops closed for the occasion. Banners were held high by the volunteers. Thousands of people, including women and children in white dresses with shady hats, stood in the streets as bands led the way.
At the railway station the train had been decorated with Kurrajong leaves and flags for the occasion. A special train had been arranged to take them to the Narrabri camp. Along the way the train stopped overnight at Warialda and Moree where further rallies were held and more recruits joined the Kurrajongs.
Further contingents followed during the next two months. Many of these men became part of the 33rd Battalion. Their story has been told in the book A fine body of men: Inverell Remembers the Kurrajongs 1916.
It is likely that at this time the intensive recruiting campaign and departure of the First Contingent of The Kurrajongs would have influenced enlistment throughout the district.
The Kurrajongs
SIX weeks after the First Kurrajongs left Inverell an enthusiastic farewell was given to the Second Kurrajongs who departed town on February 29, 1916.
The day before departure, this group of volunteers marched down Otho and Byron streets to Vivian Street and assembled at the Imperial Picture Palace for their formal farewell.
The men, placed on a platform, were highly visible to the large cheering crowd.
A lengthy and passionate speech made by Sergeant Gallie implored more men to enlist. Sgt Gallie said, “that the hangers-back who sought a girl’s hand should be told, ‘when you come back from the war, and show me some honorable scars, I will marry you.”
When no one came forward, Sgt Gallie walked through the hall eyeballing likely candidates until four men agreed to sign up.
The Inverell Times reported Alderman O’Connor’s address to the departing recruits as follows:
“Kurrajongs, evergreen Kurrajongs, I have a pleasant duty to perform, that of presenting to you the bronze medal and sox which are similar to the presents given to every soldier leaving Inverell.
“The medals are merely badges or souvenirs, the intrinsic value of which is nothing, but they are made of the same material as the Victoria Cross so much coveted by soldiers.
“You are now standing on the stage of this little hall, but ere long you will be on the stage of the great theatre of war.”
The next day the men were photographed by Mr. George Devine before marching to the Railway Station carrying their Kurrajong banner.
Inverell residents cheered the passing procession which included Police, Pipers, and the Fire Brigade with the Austral, Model and Salvation Army bands providing music.
As with the first contingent the train was well decorated in patriotic colours and flags.
At Kelly’s Gully near Warialda, eleven more men joined the Kurrajongs on their way to the Narrabri camp. Most of them served with the 33rd Battalion, known as ‘New England’s Own’.
Of these 61 men, 21 died, 26 were wounded and or gassed, and 5 were returned home because of ill health.< One being Jonathan Wright with Debility from his age 52 & deep vein thrombosis

This study challenges the current view that the originality of Duns Scotus' notion of contingent causality lies in modal logic. It works as an ontological concept, and so provides a point of entry into the foundations of Duns Scotus' metaphysics. As one of two basic manifestations of the active causal power of being, it points to Scotus' underlying ontology, which can no longer be seen as a failure to attain Aquinas' clarity. We have a positive alternative, capable of generating the characteristic Scotist theses: univocity of being, formal distinction, haecceitas, proof of God's existence from possibility, the producibility of God's ideas. The exploration of the role contingent causality plays in Scotus' and Bradwardine's views on free will and predestination, and Bradwardin"

This is a photograph from the 3rd annual running of The Lough Lene Gaels Hurling and Camogie Clubs New Year Road Challenge which was held in Collinstown, Co. Westmeath, Ireland on Sunday 11th January 2015 at 13:00. There were two races on offer today - a 10KM road race and a 5KM road race, fun run, and walk. This is one of the first road races in the midlands of the New Year 2015. As this was a community orientated event families were especially welcome in the 5KM race. The race was organised to raise funding for the development of the GAA pitches for the Lough Lene Gaels Hurling and Camogie Clubs. Overall this was a very successful event with a very large field of well over 300 participants in both races combined. The great local effort was exemplified by a very big local contingent from Collinstown and neighbouring areas.
The 5KM race was an out and back course on the Collinstown to Fore Road. The 10KM was also on an out and back course with a deviation between 2KM and 7KM for the longer race. There were several tough hills but an equal amount of down-hill. There was a bitter cold wind on the backs of participants of the 10KM for the first half of the race which unfortunately turned to become a headwind for the return stretch to the finish. The turn around on the course for the 10KM came at Doyle's Pub [goo.gl/maps/WxPSy - Google Streetview] at Glenidan. Refreshments were served afterwards in the Lough Lene Inn where the prize ceremony was also held.
Due to the inclement weather and poor lighting we had to, unfortunately, delete a lot of our photographs as there were very many blurs and fuzzy pictures. However, we have an extensive set of photographs from today's events on the following Flickr Photoset Page: www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/sets/72157649832542838/

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!

Title: HQ ARRC US contingent celebrate their Independence Day
INNSWORTH – The US contingent celebrated Independence Day at the Officer’s Mess July 3, 2014.
Independence Day is commonly known as the 4tth of July, is a federal holiday in the United States commemoration the adoption of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776, declaring independence from the Kingdom of Great Britain. It is also a reminder for those who have been deployed of just how important freedom is.
More than 190 guests came out to celebrate with Headquarters Allied Rapid Reaction Corps (HQ ARRC) US contingent to enjoy games, food and fun. Everyone got a tutoring session on some US history and some enjoyed watching the 50 states appear across the screen and the things that represented them.
There was entertainment all around for everyone to enjoy, with two bouncy castles for the kids, and entertainment room for movies and even a mechanical bronco for anyone who wanted to give it a go. To add to the US flavor there was lots and lots of dancing.
In Brig. Gen. Richard G. Kaiser’s, DCOS OPS welcoming speech he made a comment referring to the “melting pot”
The “melting pot is a metaphor, used in the 1780’s for a heterogeneous society becoming more homogeneous, the different elements “melting together into a harmonious whole with a common culture.
During the 4th of July celebration you could understand how it was the perfect use of the word. The close working relationships between the nations tend to over flow into personal relationships and cultural differences, however that is what is so unique and interesting for nations to come out and see some of each other’s history and cultures.

UNMIL: National contingent takes part in ceremony of celebration of International Day of United Nations Peacekeepers
Sunday, May 29. LIBERIA — The Ukrainian military of the 56th Detached Helicopter Unit (DHU) of the UNMIL joined the ceremonies on the occasion of the International Day of United Nations Peacekeepers.
Special Representative of the Secretary General Farid Zarif and Liberia’s Defence Minister Brownie J. Samukai laid wreaths in honour of peacekeepers having lost their lives in Liberia at a ceremony to mark the International Day of United Nations Peacekeepers at the Monrovia headquarters of the United Nations Mission in Liberia.
“The sacrifice, peacekeepers have made, should not and will not go in vain. Thanks to them, we have the future in our country,” Minister Samukai said.
Українські військові зі складу 56 окремого вертолітного загону Місії ООН у Ліберії долучилися до урочистостей з нагоди Міжнародного дня миротворців ООН, котрі відбулися у штабі Місії в Монровії.
В цей день вітають не лише тих хто виконує або виконував миротворчі завдання під блакитним прапором ООН, але й вшановують усіх, хто віддав своє життя у боротьбі за справу миру. У пам’ять про них Спеціальний представник генерального секретаря ООН у Ліберії Фарід Заріф та Міністр оборони Республіки Бровні Самукай поклали вінки.
Містер Бровні Самукай також розповів, що завдяки миротворцям ООН у країни з’явилася надія на краще майбутнє. Все чого Ліберія досягла — так чи інакше пов’язано з діяльністю блакитних шоломів. За словами урядовця, вагомий внесок, котрий Організація Об’єднаних Націй зробила у розвиток ліберійської нації ніколи не буде забутий.
На церемонії Україну представляла прапороносна група військовослужбовців 56 окремого вертолітного загону.
Завершились урочистості підняттям прапору ООН та національного стягу Республіки Ліберія.

Своїми діями ви постійно підтримуєте високий міжнародний авторитет Організації Об’єднаних Націй на усій території ДР Конго. Ось чому внесок українських миротворців до почесної місії підтримання миру в ДР Конго сьогодні нагороджується медалями ООН «За службу миру», – сказав генерал-майор Бернард Комінс

XALAPA, VER., 27 DE JUNIO DE 2011.- En conferencia de prensa, el presidente del Comité Directivo Estatal del Partido Revolucionario Institucional, Héctor Yunes Landa, afirmó que Felipe Calderón además de pedir perdón, como se lo solicitó el poeta Javier Sicilia, por las personas que no ha podido proteger, también debe hacerlo por la mala estrategia en el combate al crimen organizado, por no cumplir sus compromisos como ser el presidente del empleo y por decir mentiras cuando fue candidato.
Señaló como ejemplo que de mayo del año pasado a mayo de este año, “el presidente del empleo” ha logrado que la tasa de desempleo en el país aumente el 5.2 por ciento.
Yunes Landa calificó como desatinada la medida del aspirante a candidato a la presidencia de la república, Ernesto Cordero, de apoyar la permanencia del Impuesto Empresarial a Tasa Única (IETU), puesto que se ha analizado hasta el cansancio que éste debe desaparecer porque ya ha cumplido su propósito.
Por otra parte y durante la misma conferencia, la diputada federal Daniela Nadal Riquelme rindió protesta como nueva secretaria para la Atención a Grupos Vulnerables del CDE del PRI; ahí anunció un programa que se iniciará el 10 de julio en la ciudad de Tuxpan, donde se realizarán actividades interactivas entre los ciudadanos para involucrarlos y concientizarlas en este tema, por lo que al finalizar los artículos utilizados en las actividades, como bastones y sillas de ruedas, serán entregados a personas que los necesiten.
La secretaria general, Erika Ayala Ríos, tomó protesta como nuevos miembros del Partido Revolucionario Institucional a Juvencio Rocha Peralta, presidente de la Red de Veracruzanos en Carolina del Norte y a Patricio Mora Domínguez, presidente fundador de la Unión de Trabajadores Veracruzanos en Tamaulipas y presidente de la Fundación Veracruz en McAllen Texas, ambos líderes migrantes, quienes buscan la oportunidad de ayudar a la sociedad veracruzana.
En otro tema, Héctor Yunes Landa pidió a militantes, simpatizantes y dirigentes para que estén pendientes y se puedan sumar a las labores de apoyo en las contingencias que puedan ocurrir en los siguientes días. Nombró al secretario de Organización, Juan de Dios Sánchez Abreu, responsable de coordinar el acopio de los apoyos que reciba el partido para después ser distribuidos donde se requiera.
En esta conferencia de prensa, el alcalde de Paso de Ovejas, Adolfo Ramírez Arana, previo permiso de su cabildo para ausentarse del municipio sin goce de sueldo, realizó un llamado al delegado estatal de la Secretaría de Desarrollo Social federal, Abel Cuevas Melo, para que en los recursos federales sean tomados en cuenta todos los ciudadanos y no sólo los del Partido Acción Nacional, por lo que aseguró que si aspira a alguna candidatura, renuncie al cargo y no utilice el dinero de los mexicanos para promoverse.
Por su parte, el presidente de la Fundación Colosio, Inocencio Yáñez Vicencio, intervino para dar a conocer la convocatoria del “Pograma Para México”, que realizarán foros del 1 al 7 de agosto, en el que participaran militantes, ciudadanos, instituciones académicas, dirigentes sociales y líderes de opinión, para redefinir el rumbo del país.
También habló José Luis Santiago López, secretario de capacitación, empleo y desarrollo económico del CDE del PRI, quien se pronunció por la desaparición del IETU y propuso que los candidatos priistas usen como bandera esta propuesta.

Almost 100 members of the United Kingdom engineering contingent serving with the United Nations Mission in South Sudan have received medals recognizing their commitment and service to the people of the conflict-afflicted country.
The engineers have been serving in Malakal, in the north of the country, since July and will end their tour of duty in two months’ time. During their rotation, the UK troops have carried out significant infrastructural work vital to the Mission, including camp construction, building drainage systems and perimeter security structures as well as helicopter landing sites.
In Bentiu, the contingent is building a new permanent hospital, providing medical care to United Nations personnel, and clinical training to local medical staff at the Bentiu State Hospital. They are also working with colleagues from the Indian engineering battalion on remedial work at Rubkona airfield.
The Special Representative of the Secretary-General, David Shearer, awarded the UN Peacekeeping medals to the troops, including their commanding officer, Lieutenant Colonel Katie Hislop, at a special ceremony in Malakal.
Speaking at the event, he said their work had made a huge contribution to the Mission’s ability to fulfill its mandate of protecting civilians and building durable peace.
“Your efforts and professionalism are highly regarded and you have made a valuable contribution to UNMISS. It is my pleasure to award to you all the United Nations Peacekeeping Medal in recognition of your exemplary and outstanding work in South Sudan,” said David Shearer.
“I hope you wear these medals as proud and worthy ambassadors of your country and of the United Nations.”
The United Kingdom has nearly 700 uniformed personnel deployed within UN missions across the world. Its contribution to the UNMISS is its largest with nearly 400 troops serving in Juba, Bentiu and Malakal. Among the contingent are 41 female personnel, most of whom work at the UK hospital in Bentiu. David Shearer said he appreciated the UK’s recent decision to extend its commitment in South Sudan until 2020.
Speaking at the medal parade, Lt. Colonel Katie Hislop said the contingent appreciated the support and kindness of their fellow Troop Contributing Countries and the mission’s civilian and military staff whom she considered friends. They had built warm and strong relationships that would endure.
She said that the medal ceremony was about providing recognition for the soldiers’ commitment and service, “not just those who are visible and on parade, but those who are in the sangars and behind the scenes covering essential duties to protect and sustain us.”
For many of the contingent, it is their first deployment with the youngest soldier having turned 18 just before being arriving in South Sudan. Others have served their countries for decades before being deployed to Malakal and Bentiu.
“All have trained hard to be here, work hard every day to try and help UNMISS improve infrastructure and security in order to support the mission in protecting civilians,” said Lt. Colonel Hislop. “In addition to this, all our soldiers, have left behind friends and family in the UK – today is about saying thank to you them too.”
