Rock formation near Aphroditi's Beach

 

It was around 1200 BC when Aphrodite, Goddess of Love and Beauty, emerged from the gentle jade-colored sea foam at Petra tou Romiou, a boulder that juts up from the south coast of Cyprus as majestically today as it did then. The name Aphrodite, in fact, means "foam born." She was the most ancient goddess in the Olympian pantheon.

 

This beach has a number of weird rocks such as the one in this photo.

This is a photograph from the Tullamore Harriers AC "Quinlan Cup" Half Marathon was held on Saturday 30th August 2014 in Tullamore, Co. Offaly, Ireland at 12:00. This is the second year of the event. Last year, 2013, the event commemorated the 60th Anniversary of the formation of Tullamore Harriers AC which today is one of Ireland's best known athletics clubs. The race was perfectly organised. There were stewarts all along the route, 3 drink stations with bottled water, superb facilities, and great after-race refreshments. The stewards along the route provided great encouragement to all of the runners. Tullamore Harriers and the local community really worked together to make this is a wonderful event. There was also a relay option where teams of two can run approximately 10.5km each. In total 568 participants completed the race which is almost 150 more than the 2013 event.

The permanent link to the full set of photographs is [https://www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/sets/72157646587496250/]. This set of photographs includes photographs of the start and then photographs of the finish up to the 2 HOUR finishing time.

 

As mentioned above last year this race marathon race celebrated the 60th Anniversary (a Diamond Anniversary) of the foundation of Tullamore Harriers AC. The club was formed in the town in November 1953. However, it was almost 1979 before facilities close to what we see today open in the present day site. Over 50 provincial and national athletics meetings are held at Tullamore Harriers every year. The facilities available combined with it's central geographical location joining routes from North, South, East, and West make it a very attractive venue. The half marathon today firmly brings competitive national road racing back to "The Harriers". In the past there was the famous Quinnlan Cup

Festival of Races (see a link below for some nostalgia) which was one of Ireland's Blue Ribband events with some very famous names of the past lining out for that four mile race. Today, the facilities at Tullamore Harriers are the envy of many athletics clubs in Ireland. The facilities provided by Tullamore make it one of the premier venues for local and national level athletics in Ireland. There is an Olympic standard tartan track, a fully equipped gym, changing facilities, press and media facilities, meeting room spaces, etc. The club also provides a social center and niteclub which makes "The Harriers" a very well known on the local social scene. Esssentially, the town of Tullamore would be a different place if it weren't for the presence of Tullamore Harriers AC.

 

Overall Race Summary

Participants: There was 568 participants of runners, joggers, and walkers.

Weather: The midday start seen warm pleasant conditions for running. The layout of the course meant that there was a stiff breeze into the face of competitors for the first few miles up to mile 6. When the race turned around to return to Tullamore the wind was somewhat more favourable to runners.

Course: The race starts on the Charleville Road just outside the entrance to Tullamore Harriers. The race proceeds south along the R421 and onto the N52 before taking a route onto local back roads. The race then completes a large rural road route before it joins to the R421 again and the final 1.5 miles are the same as the first mile of the race. The runners enter tullamore stadium and complete one lap of the tartan track before the finish line. The course is challenging in places with some undulations along the route. But overall it is fair course.

Location Map: Start/finish and registration and race HQ was all at Tullamore Harriers AC Club Grounds: goo.gl/maps/xZ4GM (Google Streetview)

Refreshments: There was a very impressive selection of refreshments including sandwiches, cakes, home-made breads, etc in the Harriers clubhouse afterwards. People were able to enjoy their post race refreshments outside in the warm pleasant sunshine.

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

The picture sequence in the Group "Last religion" demonstrates aspects of tradtional religious systems.

 

Most conflicts between religious systems (wars, terrorism, genocides and structures of violence) are political struggles concerning the (neo-colonial) distribution of materialistic and spiritual resources and capitals in the world system. This is the background of the conflict (Clash of Civilizations) between the (Christianity-Judaism)-dominated states of 'Western civilization' (18-years old pubescents) and the Islam-dominated systems of states (15 years old pubescents) after 100 years lasting colonial domination. Finally the LR delivers the basics for harmonic global social formations and distribution of resources between all nations as the life-form of adult subjects. The LR – as a new era of enlightenment – reveals the double deficiencies in the 'Western civilization': its unjust dominant structural violence in the world system and its immatureness according to the political and social parameters of the adult LR. The LR transforms and completes the concept of Social Sculpture formulated by Joseph Beuys.

Phyllite in the Precambrian of North Carolina, USA.

 

This is an outcrop of Anakeesta Formation in the Great Smoky Mountains. It's one of many stratigraphic units in the ~50,000 feet thick Ocoee Supergroup. The Ocoee has considerable deposits of sandstone and shale originally deposited as sands and muds in an ancient ocean trench. Trenches form along subduction zones, where a tectonic plate composed of thin, heavy oceanic lithosphere dives down into the mantle below another tectonic plate of either oceanic lithosphere or thick, lightweight continental lithosphere.

 

Rocks in the Anakeesta Formation were originally shales, but have been metamorphosed to phyllites. Phyllite is a foliated, low to intermediate grade metamorphic rock dominated by mica. It often has wrinkled and crinkled foliation surfaces. The brownish coloration in this outcrop is iron oxide staining produced by oxidative weathering of pyrite in the phyllite.

While walking back over the rugby club home after photographing the RAF 100 flypast I spotted this formation of push chairs and prams and couldn't resist a snap!

Fossil redwood tree trunk in the Eocene of Wyoming, USA.

 

This is a scarce example of a still-standing, Eocene-aged fossil tree in Yellowstone Park, Wyoming. The tree itself is a redwood, probably belonging to the genus Metasequoia. Redwoods do not live in Yellowstone today, so the climate has clearly changed since the Eocene.

 

The fossil wood has been permineralized. "Perminerlization" is the proper term for what most people called "petrified wood". Permineralization involves the precipitation of minerals (usually quartz - SiO2) in the porosity of wood or bone by groundwater that has percolated through. The original microscopic-level anatomy of wood can be preserved in a permineralized fossil. Sometimes mineralization can completely obscure the biologic structure of fossil wood - some paleontologists refer to that as quartz replacement, but it's just extreme permineralization.
