Formerly a water tank for the Pennsylvania Railroad, this structure now promotes tourism in the Indiana city located near the border with Ohio.
The image illustrates that within our society perfection is promoted thought the rejection and demotion of impurities within its self.
Fruit for example is selected though a bombardment of standards; measurement, colour and quality tests, this then determines where the fruit 'belongs'. Fruit that does not step up to the standard is discarded.
An artificial selection process, this artificial section is not just present within our food industry, but within the media, toys even down to the way we perceive perfection. And example would be when the BBC "Country File" dropped its over 40's female, TV presenters when 'refreshing' there program.

PEGNet Conference 2019 - "Promoting social, economic and socio-political development through social protection."
September 9-10 | Bonn, Germany
Social protection is a key instrument for fostering social, economic and political development. It is well established that it is not only essential for the reduction of vulnerability, income poverty and income inequality but also for the promotion of human development as it facilitates access to education, health care, nutrition, housing and reduces gender disparities. In recent years, there has been a growing consensus that social protection is also an important requirement for fostering economic growth, social cohesion and political stability.

History
The Universal Museum Joanneum is the oldest public museum in Austria and the largest universal museum in the middle of Europe. As in 1811 Archduke Johann Baptist of Austria (1782-1859) its foundation commissioned, he followed his intention with the Joanneum to promote the progress of the country. With this, he wanted to
"... facilitate learning, stimulate the curiosity, that the self-thinking and herewith the independence so injurious mere memorizing, those adverse gap between the concept and the intuition, the theory and practice help more and more to fill in."
At the same time he prompted the residents (male and female ones) of former Inner Austria (Styria, Carinthia, Krain, Gorizia, Coastal land) themselves to create a history of the country. Subsequently, numerous generous donations enlarged the foundation of the museum collections as well as a large part of the book inventory of the Styrian Provincial Library.
The area of the new Joanneum district - in particular the building complex "Rauber alley-Kalchberg alley-Neutor alley" - but also within the urban development of Graz played an important role:
The entire complex has a trapezoidal ground plan that resulted from the original location at the medieval city walls. Located in the middle of the city life, the history of the museum Rauber alley can be traced back to the 15th century. Numerous conversions and extensions as well as several changes of ownership dominated the cityscape around the area.
The northern four-winged complex with early Baroque facade design, court arcades and private chapel Abbot Franz von Kaltenhausen already 1665-1674 had built as a town house for the Benedictine Abbey of St. Lambrecht. Master builder was the stemming from Roveredo, Grisons, Domenico Sciassia (1599/1603-1679).
The building did not remain for a long time in the possession of the Benedictines because due to a debt they had to sell the complex in 1684 to Jakob Count of Leslie. The former foundation, now called "Leslie court", the Leslie family was incorporated, and after the extinction of the noble family of Leslie in 1802 to Prince Johann Karl of Dietrichstein inherited. In 1811, it was purchased by the Estates of Styria, to serve as a location for the by Archduke Johann founded Inner-Austrian "National Museum" Joanneum.
The building Kalchberg alley was erected in place of the narrow south wing which connected the garden wing of 1665/74 and the road-side annex of 1825/26 between 1890 and 1893 after a design by August Gunolt with historical neo-baroque facade design and roof balustrade. The 1893 from the Joanneum moved into the building Kalchberg alley Styrian State Library is the oldest state library of Austria and the second largest library in Styria. The library building in Kalchberg alley, basically remained unchanged for more than 100 years. The five-axis façade in Kalchberg alley had been designed as a counterpart to the built in the same time museum new building in Neutor alley.
The neo-baroque museum building Neutor alley 45 lies as a historical monumental building between Neutor alley and Museum for Arts and Crafts, Landhaus alley and Kalchberg alley. Via as a circular segment formed forecourt one reaches the round, domed entrance building. The building structure is essentially determined by this central dome, the adjacent representative staircase and the on both sides adjoining curved central wings.
The building was in 1890 and 1894 as "Museum of Cultural History and Museum of Arts and Crafts" erected. Since 1863 they wanted on the grounds of Joanneum garden between the museum building Rauber alley 10 and Neutor alley build a new museum building. Finally, August Gunolt (1849-1932) - student of Heinrich Ferstel, from 1876 professor at the kk Federal School for Arts and Crafts in Graz - was commissioned with the preparation of relevant drafts.
Gunolt on his plan was inspired by the Baroque style of Johann Bernhard Fischer von Erlach. This can be seen especially on the curved facade in exedra form, and on the dome of the museum building. Despite renovations and additions, the building remained the only museum (new) building of the 19th century in Graz.
Since 26.11.2011, you can find on this site the redesigned Joanneum Quarter.

Geschichte
Das Universalmuseum Joanneum ist das älteste öffentlich zugängliche Museum Österreichs und das größte Universalmuseum in der Mitte Europas. Als 1811 Erzherzog Johann Baptist von Österreich (1782 – 1859) seine Stiftung in Auftrag gab, folgte er seiner Absicht, mit dem Joanneums den Fortschritt des Landes zu fördern. Er wollte damit
"...das Lernen erleichtern, die Wissbegierde reizen, jenes dem Selbstdenken
und hiemit der Selbstständigkeit so nachtheilige bloße Memoriren, jene schädliche Kluft zwischen dem Begriff und der Anschauung, der Theorie und der Praxis mehr und mehr ausfüllen helfen.“
Gleichzeitig forderte er die Bewohner/innen des damaligen Innerösterreichs (Steiermark, Kärnten, Krain, Görz, Küstenland) dazu auf, selbst eine Geschichte des Landes zu erstellen. In der Folge erweiterten zahlreiche großzügige Schenkungen den Grundstock der musealen Sammlungen sowie einen großen Teil des Buchbestands der Steiermärkischen Landesbibliothek.
Das Areal des neuen Joanneumsviertels – insbesondere der Gebäudekomplex „Raubergasse-Kalchberggasse-Neutorgasse“ - spielte jedoch auch innerhalb der städtebaulichen Entwicklung von Graz eine bedeutsame Rolle:
Die Gesamtanlage weist einen trapezförmigen Grundriss auf, der sich durch die ursprüngliche Lage an der mittelalterlichen Stadtmauer ergab. Mitten im Stadtgeschehen gelegen, lässt sich die Geschichte des Museumsgebäudes Raubergasse 10 bis ins 15. Jahrhundert zurückverfolgen. Zahlreiche Um- und Zubauten sowie mehrere Besitzerwechsel prägten das Stadtbild rund um das Areal.
Die nördliche Vierflügelanlage mit frühbarocker Fassadierung, Hofarkaden und Hauskapelle ließ Abt Franz von Kaltenhausen bereits von 1665 bis 1674 als ein Stadthaus für das Benediktinerstift St. Lambrecht errichten. Baumeister war der aus Roveredo, Graubünden, stammende Domenico Sciassia (1599/1603-1679).
Das Gebäude blieb nicht lange im Besitz der Benediktiner, denn aufgrund von Verschuldung mussten sie den Komplex im Jahr 1684 an Jakob Graf von Leslie verkaufen. Die ehemalige Stiftung, nun "Lesliehof" genannt, wurde der Familie Leslie einverleibt, und nach dem Erlöschen des Grafengeschlechts von Leslie im Jahr 1802 an den Fürsten Johann Karl von Dietrichstein vererbt. Im Jahr 1811 wurde es von den Ständen der Steiermark angekauft, um als Standort für das von Erzherzog Johann gestiftete innerösterreichische „Nationalmusäum“ Joanneum zu dienen.
Das Gebäude Kalchberggasse 2 wurde anstelle des schmalen Südflügels, der den Gartenflügel von 1665/74 und den straßenseitigen Zubau von 1825/26 verband, zwischen 1890 und 1893 nach einem Entwurf von August Gunolt mit historischer neobarocker Fassadierung und Dachbalustrade errichtet. Die 1893 vom Joanneum in das Gebäude Kalchberggasse übersiedelte Steiermärkische Landesbibliothek ist die älteste Landesbibliothek Österreichs und die zweitgrößte Bibliothek der Steiermark. Der Bibliotheksbau in der Kalchberggasse blieb seit mehr als 100 Jahren im Wesentlichen unverändert. Die fünfachsige Fassade in der Kalchberggasse war als Pendant zum gleichzeitig errichteten Museumsneubau in der Neutorgasse gestaltet worden.
Das neobarocke Museumsgebäude Neutorgasse 45 liegt als historischer Monumentalbau zwischen Neutorgasse und Museumspark, Landhausgasse und Kalchberggasse. Über einen als Kreissegment ausgebildeten Vorplatz erreicht man den runden, überkuppelten Eingangsbau. Die Gebäudestruktur wird wesentlich durch diesen zentralen Kuppelbau, das daran anschließende repräsentative Treppenhaus und die an den Zentralraum beidseitig anschließenden geschwungenen Fronttrakte bestimmt.
Das Gebäude wurde zwischen 1890 und 1894 als "Kulturhistorisches und Kunstgewerbemuseum" errichtet. Seit 1863 wollte man auf dem Gelände des Joanneumsgartens zwischen dem Museumsgebäude Raubergasse 10 und der Neutorgasse einen neuen Museumsbau errichten. Schließlich wurde August Gunolt (1849-1932) – Schüler Heinrich Ferstels, ab 1876 Professor an der k.k. Staatsgewerbeschule in Graz – mit der Erstellung entsprechender Entwürfe beauftragt.
Gunolt wurde zu seinem Plan von Barockbauten im Stile J. B. Fischers von Erlach inspiriert. Erkennbar ist dies vor allem an der geschwungenen Fassade in Exedraform, und an der Kuppel des Museumsgebäudes. Trotz Um- und Anbauten blieb das Gebäude der einzige Museumsneubau des 19. Jahrhunderts in Graz.
Seit 26.11.2011 finden Sie auf diesem Areal das neugestaltete Joanneumsviertel.

This is a photograph from the first round of the Mullingar Road League which was held in Belvedere House and Gardens, Mullingar, Co. Westmeath, Ireland on Wednesday 7th May 2014 at 20:00. The race follows the roads and trails around Belvedere and is a very testing 5KM route. The race is promoted by Mullingar Harriers for the Pat Finnerty Memorial Cup. Competitors need to run 3 races out of the 4 races in May (any order) to be considered in the overall placing in categories at the conclusion of the league. Over 350 people took part in tonight's event. The weather was positively wintry with a very cold wind in the face of runners for the 1KM and the final KM of the race.
We have an extensive set of photographs from today in the following Flickr Album: www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/sets/72157644508131856/

You will find the link above clearly outlined in the description text which accompanies this photograph.

We use Creative Commons Licensing for these photographs
We use the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License for all our photographs here in this photograph set. What does this mean in reality?

This usually just mean putting a link to our photographs somewhere on your website, blog, or Facebook where other people can see it.
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.

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
