This is a photograph from the annual Na Fianna AC "Bob Heffernan" 5KM Road Race and Fun Run which was held in Johnstownbridge, Co. Kildare, Ireland on Tuesday 19th May 2015 at 20:00. The race has gained a glowing reputation as being one of the fastest 5KM road races in Ireland. This race commemorates the years of work and volunteering that local man Bob Heffernan gave to Meath, Leinster, and Irish athletics from grass roots upwards and his work with the host club Na Fianna AC who have a catchment area in this part of rural North Kildare and South Meath. The race, known affectionately by club-members as simply "Bob's race" is a fitting tribute to commemorate his contribution to this sport. Today's race had another very large attendance with over 420 registered participants. There was a wonderful atmosphere as runners from all over Leinster gathered for a great night's racing. The very changeable and unseasonably weather of late made for an unpredictable night weather wise. A shower of hail fell on runners between 2KM and 3KM and yet this shower didn't fall on the finish area at the Hamlet Court Hotel.
This race is part of the annual Meath Road Race League despite the fact that the race is run completely in County Kildare. The Na Fianna club, who organise the race, have a catchment area of South Meath and North West Kildare. The current route for the race has stayed the same over the past few years. However previous to that the race was held in Enfield and also Rathmoylan in County Meath. This road race has grown from strength to strength year on year and is now one of the premier 5KM races in Ireland and one of the top club attended races in Leinster. The race starts on the busy Enfield to Endenderry road and this requires a big effort from stewards and marshalls. However, as always, the event was a resounding success with personal bests and great runs from many of the participants.
We have a large set of photographs from the finish of the race and they are available on our Flickr photostream at www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/sets/72157653107820532

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.

Anti-bullying, reputation management and new media literacy for youth and adults

The numbers are trending nicely for social media. A new piece of research out this week estimates the global social network advertising spend will top nearly £5 billion next year and approach £6.3 billion the year after. There’s another social media figure on the rise too: despite the increased investment in social, companies are getting blindsided by the social media-fueled PR crisis, as recent research into this shows. Here are a few important tips to consider for integrating social media into your crisis communications plan. They are the most repeated mistakes and misconceptions that lead big brands into trouble with the public.
Underestimating influence/impact of your social media critics at your peril.
Kryptonite is the business school case study here, but loads of brands since – from Target telling the blogosphere they don’t rate Nestle telling off eco Facebook protesters – have failed to understand that bloggers/Tweeters and Facebook protesters may not be The Guardian or The Times, but they do hold plenty of weight.
Giving the online community flashy marketing message when they just want simple, straightforward detail.
These days, companies can get into big trouble for issuing fictitious glowing reviews or trotting out seemingly genuine testimonials by paid actors. Even before these consumer protections were put into place, L’Oreal paid a higher price – it got burned by vigilant bloggers.
Facebook is not just a forum for fans and “Likes.”
Burger King, Nestle, and BP, to name just a few have seen their Facebook pages overwhelmed by critics who want to expose dodgy company practice. Greenpeace has had great success mobilising its followers in a series of corporate Facebook pressure campaigns. BK quickly caved to the demands to cheers. Nestle, on the other hand, shouted back, inviting more opposition.
Culture of unresponsive/uncaring customer service fuels recurring gripes, becomes a PR headache.
Dell learned the hard way that Jeff Jarvis’ customer service gripes were not an isolated issue; a massive backlash was brewing. It just took one well-connected critic to put his finger on it and the avalanche ensued.
For all the fresh money pouring into social media, we would expect the number of errors to rise before companies really get the message that social media investment means more than crafting a just a slick campaign. It means two-way dialogue, transparency and, ultimately, learning from your mistakes.

Simpson & Brown have an established reputation for high quality visitor reception buildings and in adapting and extending listed buildings to provide exhibition, conference, shops, cafeteria and toilets. One of the founding projects for Simpson & Brown was the reordering and development of St Giles High Church in Edinburgh. The project included new access, new bookshops, new cafeteria and associated kitchens in the basement. Many of our church projects have involved the provision of interpretation, improved access and catering. Currently we are developing proposals for a new visitor reception building at Paisley Abbey.
The Robert Burns Birthplace Museum is a contemporary visitor centre in Alloway and opened its door to the public on St Andrew’s Day 2010. It is arranged around a 500 sqm exhibition gallery displaying many of the 5,000 artefacts in the Museum’s collection. The new building also accommodates a café opening onto the mature gardens inherited from an earlier exhibition building, a gift shop and an attractive and welcoming education room.
Simpson & Brown have provided visitor centres for several distilleries, including Strathisla Distillery in Banffshire for the Chivas & Glenlivet Group and Highland Park Distillery in Orkney. The practice was also responsible for the repair and conversion of the original 19th century malting floors at Aberfeldy Distillery into a visitor facility featuring a permanent exhibition explaining the history and development of the Dewar family business.
The designs of the Scottish Seabird Centre in North Berwick, the Scottish Ornithological Club at Aberfeldy and the gateway building at The Royal Botanic Gardens Dawyck were all informed by ecological principles. They incorporate breathing-wall construction with cellulose fibre insulation and untreated natural materials were used where possible.
The Rowardennan Visitor Facility, situated on the shore of Loch Lomond, was built in conjunction with Richard Shorter Architects. The building is a low-impact construction using locally sourced natural materials. It is heated by a wood-burning stove and supplied with water from the hills.
The visitor centre at Arbroath Abbey is both recognisable as a new building in a historically significant setting, yet neither detracts from nor compromises the existing ancient monument. The visitor reception building provides interpretation and audio visual facilities to introduce visitors to the Abbey. It is constructed of natural materials and has a sedum planted roof. We also previously worked at Rosslyn Chapel, where the old stables were restored and altered to form a visitor centre comprising a reception, a shop, a tearoom, toilets and an exhibition space.

America is Now the Most Admired Country Globally – Jumping to the Top of the 2009 Anholt-GfK Roper Nation Brands Index
* United States Experiences Biggest Improvement in Reputation Among 50
Countries Measured
* Anholt Attributes Change to the Election of Barack Obama
NEW YORK – October 5, 2009 – Brand America is now ranked #1 by global citizens, according to the GfK Roper Public Affairs & Media, a division of GfK Custom Research North America. Results from the 2009 Anholt-GfK Roper Nation Brands Index(NBI), which measures the global image of 50 countries, show the United States taking the top spot as the country with the best overall brand, up from seventh last year.
"What’s really remarkable is that in all my years studying national reputation, I have never seen any country experience such a dramatic change in its standing as we see for the United States in 2009,” explains Simon Anholt, NBI founder and an independent advisor to over a dozen national governments around the world. "Despite recent economic turmoil, the U.S. actually gained significant ground. The results suggest that the new U.S. administration has been well received abroad and the American electorate’s decision to vote in President Obama has given the United States the status of the world’s most admired country.”

"This improved perception of the U.S. is not only in the area of Governance, there are improved perceptions for People, Culture and even Tourism of the United States,” adds Xiaoyan Zhao, Senior Vice President and director of the NBI study at GfK Roper Public Affairs & Media. "While most nations’ reputation does not undergo major change from year to year, the U.S. has clearly bucked the trend. What’s key for the U.S. and other world’s leading nations is to strike while the iron is hot and develop focused policies and communication that draw businesses, financial investors and tourists -- in order to help lift their national economies and their global credibility.”
The NBI is based on a global survey in which people from across 20 major developed and developing countries are asked to rate each nation in six categories: Exports, Governance, Culture, People, Tourism and Immigration/Investment. The NBI ranking is based on the average of these six scores.
Turning to the rest of the NBI rankings, mostly the same countries are in the top ten as in 2008 – but also with some shifts in position. France again captured second place overall, while Germany and the United Kingdom fell to third and fourth, respectively. Japan (5th) and Italy (6th) did not shift rankings from 2008. However, Canada lost ground, slipping from fourth last year to seventh in 2009. Switzerland, Australia, Spain and Sweden round out the top 10.
Other major movers in the overall ranking include several developing countries – such as China, which climbed several spots from last year to 22nd in 2009.
This year’s NBI study also includes questions on the impact the global economic crisis is having on people’s opinions and perceptions towards the nations tracked. Top-line results from this area will be released late fall 2009.

Todd Cast has developed quite a strong reputation and following in the outdoor television industry over the past five years. He has over 30 years of experience in the field all across the globe and is known as a worldwide professional hunter. In addition to his lifelong passion for whitetail, Todd has developed an expertise in the international hunting community. He has hunted in New Zealand, South America, Canada, Europe, Africa and he even hunted with one of the "Lords" in Austria. Todd spent five years guiding turkey and whitetail hunters in Texas and also guided archery hunters in Africa.
In addition to all Todd's worldwide hunting credits and record book animals, he offers private shooting lessons. As a long range rifle and archery instructor, Todd has a wealth of experience to help others make the most of that special moment when it comes. He has a special way of making others feel comfortable and maximize their abilities. Most importantly, Todd has catered his time to help those less fortunate and especially children.
As the founder of TNT Outdoor Explosion, LLC, Todd wanted to use this platform to help children with disabilities and life threatening diseases. That is why in early 2009 he founded and began the foundation "Cast of Dreams". Cast of Dreams takes children with handicaps and terminal diseases on the dream hunt of a lifetime. This foundation has been very well received throughout the outdoor community. Numerous individuals, corporations and communities have joined with Todd to make a difference in these kids lives.

Open 7 days 10.00-17.00, free parking
Thursday 2nd June 2022 marks a milestone in the story of The Scottish Antique and Arts Centre in Abernyte, when they will be quietly celebrating 25 years since they first opened their doors.
Back in 1997, founders, Bob & Elaine Templeman proposed the new to Scotland concept of an antiques centre, occupied by dealers showcasing all ranges of antiques and curios. The antiques would be complimented by contemporary furniture, gifts and home accessories, providing a really comprehensive offering to those who wanted to furnish their homes with a bit of style.
Bob thought that Stout Brothers Garage in Abernyte, which was lying empty at the time, would be the ideal place to open their new business. Elaine thought it was far too big but, two showroom extensions later, we know who was correct!
The business opened with fourteen dealers in total. Turn the clock forward 25 years and there are now over 100 dealers represented. The restaurant and food hall have been developed significantly, and the Centre has become a popular meeting point, not only for the local community, but for those meeting up with friends and family from opposite ends of the country.
When it first opened, the couple had no idea that they would end up employing the equivalent of 30 full time members of staff on the site. “It’s our pleasure to work with an amazing team of people. They have helped us enormously over the years” they said. “They have, on several occasions, mopped up flood water which came pouring in from the surrounding tattie fields, they have trudged to the Centre through snow to check on the premises and they have served thousands upon thousands of customers, and they always manage to be so courteous and helpful. They have made our journey possible.”
They also didn’t realise that the antique side of the business would be so ethically in vogue after all these years. It’s wonderful that generation after generation can make use of beautifully crafted items without adding to the country’s carbon footprint.
The Centre is unusual in that it can cater for people in so many stages of their life. It can go from supplying a glorious engagement ring to a couple, to helping them with some artwork for their walls, and eventually providing the likes of a kitchen or dining table for an expanding family.
Bob said, “We’re delighted that one of our newest members of staff has just purchased her engagement ring from the Centre, and that the young lady, who took the plunge 25 years (and one week) ago to leave an auction house in Dundee and join us at Abernyte, is now our CEO.
It's been a fabulous and interesting journey for Dealers, customers and staff alike, and on Thursday, they’ll be raising a glass to the next 25 years!

This is a photograph from the first running of the Trim AC Bewley's 10 Mile Road Race which was held on Sunday 1st February 2015 at 12:00 in Trim, Co. Meath, Ireland. This race also incorporated the 2015 Meath 10 Mile Road Championships. For the first staging of this event this was an incredible success with almost 800 runners, joggers and walkers talking to the start line. The weather was perfect for running despite the bitter cold temperatures with air temperature of 4C recorded at the start. Some beautiful Spring sunshine helped brighten the day and the roads were clear and dry for racing.
Want to use this photograph or share it? Please read/scroll down a little further to find out how - it's very easy!
The race started on the Trim Athboy Road (the R154) and headed towards the town before making a left turn onto the Trim Dunderry road. The one mile mark comes just after a Y-junction which the race joins back to before the final 600 meters to the finish. Heading north to Dunderry the route takes a left in the middle of the village and heads west for 2 miles on the Dunderry Athboy road. At the next major junction the race takes another left turning south towards Trim town again. One of the only significant hills/drags of the course happens at around the 6.5 mile marker. Miles 7 - 9 are ran on winding roads with nice hedgerows and shelter from any breeze. During these miles you will begin to see the spire of Trim church in the distance. At the Y-Junction from mile one you have 600 meters to go with a final right turn into the industrial estate and the finish line.
The success of today's race is not an accident. Trim AC, and their army of volunteers and help from other Meath athletic clubs, put in huge work to make this race a success.
Today's race adds significantly to Trim AC's reputation for top quality organisation of race events. The 10 mile road race today follows on from the Braveheart 5KM Trail Race which is held annually in June around the beautiful and historical fields of Porchfields and Trim Castle. Today's race could be the begining of one of the region's largest and most popular 10 mile road races.
Are there more photographs from this race? This photograph is part of a larger set of photographs from the Trim AC 10 Mile Road Race 2015. They are available on our Flickr photostream in the album set here www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/sets/72157650166189770

When you click on either of these you will be presented with the option to download the image. Remember just doing a right-click and "save target as" will not work on Flickr.
I want get full resolution, print-quality, copies of these photographs?
If you just need these photographs for online usage then they can be used directly once you respect their Creative Commons license and provide a link back to our Flickr set if you use them.

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

St. Nicholas of Myra Church in Francis Street Dublin stands near the site of the
Franciscan Friary which lay outside the city walls during medieval times and gave its
name to the street.
The present Church was built between 1829 and 1834. Inside, the Church has a splen-
didly decorated ceiling and a fine altarpeice. The side altars are decorated with jesso
reliefs of the Last Supper, and the Marriage of Mary to Joseph, based on Perugine's painting,
one by John Hogan and one by Smyth, two distinguished Irish artists.
The impressive High Altar, (which was built in Italy), is flanked by two marble angels, also the work of Hogan.
Above the tabernacle is the beautiful Pieta, unique in Hogan's oeuvre and it had the effect of establishing his
reputation as a major sculpture in Rome.Above the sanctuary the ceiling is decorated with a circle depicting
the 12 apostles and the four corners contain pictures of four of the early Fathers of the Church:
St. Gregory the Great, St. Ambrose, St. Jerome and St. Augustine.
The ceiling of the nave is highly
decorated with celtic designs and Christian symbols. Two panels are of particular interest:
one depicts the arms of the lsle of Man, reminding us of it's links with this parish and the other
commemorates the Foundation of the Legion of Mary in Myra Hall in l92l.The Nuptial Chapel contains a
stained glass window by Hany Clarke depicting the Marriage of Mary and Joseph.
St. Nicholas of Myra, patron of the church, is represented by a statue showing the three
gold bags, which indicate his role as Santa Clause, and in the stained glass window in which the saint holds
a model of the church building in the crook of his arm. At his feet is an anchor which marks him as the patron
of seafaring folk, the probable reason for his link with early Dublin.
The above text is taken from a card offered by the church, and gives a brief history of this beautiful church.
I had my whole life a head of me.
A nice girl, a brilliant job, great friends and a good reputation throughout the Gothamites.
No, I pity myself to much.
But there's no harm in pity, afterall.
A war is on the horizon, I know it. I hope to find the scumbag who did this to me.
Us.
No, just me.
He will die, just like every other pitiful idiot who calls them selves a "villain."
But you, we, ARE a villain!
NO! I am misunderstood, underestimated, seeking revenge!
But they are all definitions of a villain! YOU are one!
NO! I AM NOT!
Then what are you?

The Duck and Drake, 43 Kirkgate, Leeds, England. There has been a pub in this building for at least 200 years. The pub has existed under several different names including The Horse & Groom, and The Brougham's Arms. During World War II Broughams had a reputation for being a place where women would meet and entertain American GI’s. It wasn't until 1985 - while the pub was under the care of landlord Roy ‘Dusty’ Morley - that the name changed to The Duck & Drake. The name refers to the pastime of skimming stones on water called “ducks & drakes”.
