After a lengthy lay off Captain Morgan returns! Some say his absence was due to a broken camera, others that Captain Morgan went into hiding because he was struggling to adapt to life in the public eye.
Either way he is back! There will be a few photos over the next couple of days - project was back up and running from the 1st of June.
I entered this in a club competition tonight. It was Canon vs Nikon and Canon won by an embarrassing margin. This would have been more satisfying had it not been for the truely shocking judging that included giving several photos 1 out of 20. Ive never seen below 12 before tonight. He said on occasion he would have given a zero but the computer said no.
I wont give my personal opinion on the judging as I know he will probably read this so I'll just keep quiet! Just lay off those beers Glen!

Bank of America, Not With Our Money!
Funding dirty coal? Not with our money.
Activists hung a banner on Bank of America's Charlotte, NC headquarters to tell the bank: "Not with our money!" People are fed up with Bank of America putting profits before people and planet. The bank is the largest funder of the US coal industry and the leading foreclosure on Americans' homes. Meanwhile, BoA is laying off 30,000 workers and hiking fees left and right. Enough is enough.
As the morning started to slip away four other activists barricaded the main entrance door to BOA's corporate headquarters and held a banner that said "Bank of Coal"
This was all followed up by protest march to the corner of Tryon and Trade Street, where the Rainforest Action Network had several speakers speak before marching over to BOA
You too can tell Bank of America, "Not with our money!"
Great to be back again after two years of a lay off due to the Covid, at Joe Duffy live from Duke Street, just off Grafton Street and meeting a community of people from all parts of Ireland enjoying the best of Fun and banter on the lead into Christmas.

A bitter comic about the fact that I am constantly being 'tagged' in notes on facebook to read a seemingly random list of character traits from different people. A simple command F reveals that I'm no where to be found in this note so i turn away from said self absorbed list and draw myself in many different situations. Sometimes with a cat, sometimes vomiting, sometimes fighting zombies...
also this comic is a blatent rip off of Tony Millionaires "Maakies" but I just got a new one for my birthday and have been reading it non stop. So lay off!
This photo is a third detail from the stern of a forgotten fishing boat laying off to the side on the beach at Tors Cove.
Formerly named Toads Cove, Tors Cove is a small community located 42 km south of St. John's along Route 10 (on The Irish Loop). Nestled into a scenic and sheltered harbour, Tors Cove was another stopping point for visiting migratory fishermen in the late 17th century. Its name is believed to be derived from an old English word for 'fox', and it was indeed the English themselves who are counted among the first to take up year-round residence here.
Was this location abandoned? Morley or lessley. wink emoticon
Originally named Cima by the Spanish traders who passed through in the late 1700s, the Sante Fe Railroad Company started a town here in 1878 as a railroad stop and a place to house workers. In 1906, the Colorado Fuel and Iron Company(CF&I) took over the location and built the town.
CF&I excavated a mine shaft and coal was the subject of the mine. The mine produced over 600 tons of coal per day and by the time the mine closed, over 11 million tons of coal had been extracted. The coal would then be loaded up onto a train and shipped up to Pueblo to be processed.
At it's peak in the 1920s, Morley had over 600 residents, a post office, a school and a church(the St. Aloysius). By 1949, CF&I had begun considering closing the mine, as it had dropped to less than half it's peak production and operating costs were getting too strenuous. They began laying off workers in 1950, and by 1955, only about two dozen remained. The mine was finally closed in 1956. CF&I then demolished all the buildings in the town except for the St. Aloysius church, which is still standing in fair condition today.
Many, many, many foundations can be found today. The townsite is enourmous and gives a great sense of what it was like to live in the town. An absolutely amazing place.
After a 12 month lay off with what was basically a wonky kneecap and an incident with a bus, its time to hit the pedals again.

It's 8:05pm, and I'm asleep by 9. I ran again today, but I've done something to my ankle, and have to lay off it for a while :( I hope it gets better soon!

Pictures from the Vanarama National League North clash at Broadhurst Park between FC United of Manchester and Darlington.
The game finished in a hard fought 3-2 victory for Darlo. who were 2-0 up inside 27 minutes.
Hardy opended the scoring for the visitors latching onto a superb ball from Thompson before slipping the ball past the advancing keeper.
Quakers went two-up on 27 minutes but it should have been more as thye spurned a host of chnaces. Liam Marrs’ free-kick was headed down by Mark Beck for Hardy to lay off in turn for Thompson to fire across Frith.
Against the run of play United pulled a goal back on 42 minutes when Jason Gilchrist spotted Jameson off his line, and chipped the ball over the keeper followed by an equaliser on 66 minutes from Thomson.
A draw looked on the cards however with 10 minutes left subsititute Cartman cleverly found Purewal with an overhead kick for his fellow sub to charge up the left. His ball to the far post was blocked, but it came back out to Cartman, who struck a low shot that took a deflection and beat the keeper to make it 3-2. Darlo were able to weather a late storm to secure all 3 points!
Exactly one year ago I was called into the HR managers office with my boss (who was in tears) and told because of the financial status of the company I was part of a round of lay-off's. I packed up my desk, was escorted out by my very emotional boss and I experienced what it was like to be a statistic, a victim of the economic crisis.
I was determined to be proactive and stay positive. The next day I got up, debated for awhile and then took the picture I am holding here.
Since posting that picture it's gotten over 2,000 views, I think not just because of the saying in the picture, but because of the post I put along with it. I had more than a few people tell me the determination I had inspired them.
About five weeks after I took that photo I got a call from the new VP of my department; he saw eliminating my position as a mistake and I was hired back. This is a good thing, but it is a surreal thing to be sitting in the same desk as the day that the company told me I was gone.
I continue to try and be a positive force and a helpful one in my department until God moves me elsewhere. After all, I was right - everything was okay.

10 rounds for time: - 1 mile run (5:45 pace) - 16 walking lunges w/ 55 lb dumbbell (R) - 20 pull-ups (switched to ring rows halfway) - 40 push-ups - 60 air-squats - 16 walking lunges w/ 55 lb dumbbell (L) .. Completed in 2:30:23 BY FAR the hardest workout I have ever completed... I don't normally post my workouts, but this one deserves a little respect... After feeling winded after a 4.5 hour training day yesterday, I decided to attack instead of lay off. I made it two rounds into this and honestly did not think I was going to finish... but there is a power in us that we can't even begin to fathom. We just need to have the courage to dig deep enough. .. #DayTwentyFive #DigDeep #MotivationalMay .. #run #running #triathlete #grind #crossfit #crossfitgames #fit #fitness #marathon #tgim #progress #nevergiveup #neverbackdown #neverquit #relentless #limitless #comeback #swim #bike #lovethepain #Ironman #ironmantri #motivation #inspiration #inspire #tattoo

Granite NW Inc.'s night foreman tells Mike Westbay, WSDOT Region Communications Manager, that it is great to be working on this project after a long lay-off.
Yes, this country is falling apart at a rate of speed that is leaving even the educated populous struggling to comprehend it, much less do anything about it. The Congress is so paralyzed the partisan politics, they have chosen to oppose the President no matter what the consequences: like going bankrupt. There is no dialogue at all between the two parties. Without a miracle the current course will be catastrophic. The government will collapse after it lays off 50% of its workers from the Federal level down to teachers, police, and fireman. Fifty percent. Our schools will produce illiterate students; except the ones that can afford to go to private school. On the surface, it appears to be a concerted effort to destroy the middle class, swell the lower class and leave them no way to climb out of it.

Now go, cat, go.
But dont you step on my blue suede shoes,
You can do anything but lay off of my blue suede shoes.
Uh, well, I was trying to lay off the flowers-in-sunlight shots, at least for a little while, but I got hijacked by these ranunculas. Wow, do I love ranunculas. Indulge me just a little bit with these, and then I promise I'll do some hard-hitting photojournalism shots.
Anticipating another round of threatened layoffs at LAUSD, the lawsuit seeks a preliminary injunction preventing the state or LAUSD from laying off teachers at the three schools for the 2010-11 school year. Among other things, the lawsuit also seeks a permanent injunction directing the state and LAUSD to allocate funds and oversight that will enable the three schools to develop an effective and stable faculty for the more than 5,000 current and future students at Gompers, Liechty and Markham. Pictured, Angela Bass, superintendent of instruction at Partnership for Los Angeles Schools, listens to the teacher Nicolas Melvoin share his experiences.
I love this skirt! It’s a late birthday present. I just wish the waistband wasn’t so tight, it keeps folding over at the sides. But probably I should lay off the potato chips anyway and I’ve been thinking of buying a few medium width belts. I have tons of skinny and wide belts, but hardly any in between. They would be so useful for the skirts I have with in between waistbands as well!

There will be a vote today (Tuesday, November 24th) by the Board of Supervisors on using reserve funds to prevent lay offs.

On Thursday May 30th, Sun-Times Media laid off 28 people including photo editors and the professional journalism staff. Included were well known names like Al Podgorski, Scott Stewart, Ernie Torres, Tom Cruze and John H. White who had been with the paper for thirty-five years and won a Pulitzer Prize in 1982.
The Times, which is owned by Wrapports L.L.C., an investment company, said that the action resulted from a need to shift to video work and because people were relying more
on mobile devices to stay informed. Also planned was to have reporters use IPhones to take pictures and hire freelance photographers to do the rest.
The laid-off photographers are members of the Chicago Newspaper Guild which was in the process of negotiating a new contract with the paper. The company had recently told the union that no lay-offs of photographers were planned. The Guild planned to take legal action to restore the jobs.
After being out photographing on a road trip all day yesterday I wasn't sure what I would take a photo of for World Photography Day today until this morning when I walked out onto the porch to find Mike and Little Bit snuggling (this is her favorite thing to do). Nixon was laying off to the side content to just be hanging out, he isn't as needy as Little Bit is. I thought Mike and Little Bit looked cute so went and got my camera only to come back out at the perfect time to catch this series. Nixon is well known for coming up to you and unexpectedly licking your face from one end to the other with his big drooley Boxer tongue...lol

Damage estimated at from $200,000 to $250,000 was caused about 12:30 a.m. Saturday at the River Queen stripping shovel. It will take about 20 days to repair the damage although no lay-off in production will be necessary, Supt. Frank Gilbert said. Clovis Nuss photo.
Probably from The Messenger or The Times-Argus [Central City, KY]. Unknown date.
Still getting used to the settings on this camera. Probably should lay off the flash in this lighting.

BreadTalk always pulls me in when I see it. A temptation I'll gladly have often -- but must lay off a bit on the carbs if I want to slim down... :P

I can't help but be reminded of one of the gangs from "The Warriors". I don't know, maybe "The Barrel Boys"? I think I need to lay off the crack.

EDIT FOR MY MOTHER IN LAW: Don't worry, it's just a game. I take screenshots of funny things that happen while we play - it's not some weird death cult. :)
P.S. Yes I know I have a weird sense of humor. <3
