Ocean Springs, Mississippi
The town has a reputation as an arts community. Its historic and secluded downtown area, with streets lined by live oak trees, is home to several art galleries and shops.
The settlement of Fort Maurepas or Old Biloxi, in colonial French Louisiana (New France), began in April 1699 at present-day Ocean Springs, under the authority of King Louis XIV, as Fort Maurepas by Pierre Le Moyne d'Iberville. It was the first permanent French outpost in French Louisiana and was established as a foothold to prevent Spanish encroachment on France's colonial claims. The site was maintained well into the early 18th century.
The name Ocean Springs was coined by Dr. William Glover Austin in 1854. He believed the local springs had healing qualities. Ocean Springs became a prosperous resort town and after several years reinvented itself as a history oriented residential community. The history of the town is celebrated annually in reenactments depicting d'Iberville's landing near a replica of Fort Maurepas.
Ocean Springs was the hometown of the late Walter Inglis Anderson, a nationally renowned painter and muralist who died in 1965 from lung cancer. The town plays host to several festivals, including its Peter Anderson Festival and The Herb Festival.
Ocean Springs was severely damaged on August 29, 2005, by Hurricane Katrina, which destroyed many buildings along the shoreline, including the Ocean Springs Yacht Club, and the historic wooden Fort Maurepas.
"Les Deux Magots (French pronunciation: [le dø maɡo]) is a famous café and restaurant situated at 6, Place Saint-Germain-des-Prés in Paris's 6th arrondissement, France. It once had a reputation as the rendezvous of the literary and intellectual elite of the city. It is now a popular tourist destination. Its historical reputation is derived from the patronage of Surrealist artists, intellectuals to the likes of Simone de Beauvoir and Jean-Paul Sartre, as well as young writers, such as Ernest Hemingway. Other patrons included Albert Camus, Pablo Picasso, James Joyce, Bertolt Brecht, Julia Child and the American writers James Baldwin, Chester Himes and Richard Wright.
The Deux Magots literary prize (Prix des Deux Magots) has been awarded to a French novel every year since 1933 at Les Deux Magots.
The 6th arrondissement of Paris (VIe arrondissement) is one of the 20 arrondissements of the capital city of France. In spoken French, it is referred to as le sixième.
The arrondissement, called Luxembourg in a reference to the seat of the Senate and its garden, is situated on the Rive Gauche of the River Seine. It includes educational institutions such as the École nationale supérieure des Beaux-Arts, the École des hautes études en sciences sociales and the Institut de France, as well as Parisian monuments such as the Odéon-Théâtre de l'Europe, the Pont des Arts, which links the 1st and 6th arrondissements over the Seine, Saint-Germain Abbey and Saint-Sulpice Church.
This central arrondissement, which includes the historic districts of Saint-Germain-des-Prés (surrounding the abbey founded in the 6th century) and Luxembourg (surrounding the Palace and its Gardens), has played a major role throughout Parisian history and is well known for its café culture and the revolutionary intellectualism (existentialism, authors such as Jean-Paul Sartre and Simone de Beauvoir) and literature (writers Paul Éluard, Boris Vian, Albert Camus and Françoise Sagan) it has hosted.
With its cityscape, intellectual tradition, history, architecture and central location, the arrondissement has long been home to French intelligentsia. It is a major locale for art galleries and fashion stores, as well as Paris's most expensive area. The arrondissement is one of France's richest districts in terms of average income; it is part of Paris Ouest alongside the 7th, 8th and 16th arrondissements, as well as the Neuilly-sur-Seine inner suburb. The 6th arrondissement is the smallest in Paris in terms of area covered.
Paris (French pronunciation: [paʁi]) is the capital and most populous city of France, with an estimated population of 2,150,271 residents as of 2020, in an area of 105 square kilometres (41 square miles). Since the 17th century, Paris has been one of Europe's major centres of finance, diplomacy, commerce, fashion, science and arts. The City of Paris is the centre and seat of government of the Île-de-France, or Paris Region, which has an estimated official 2020 population of 12,278,210, or about 18 percent of the population of France. The Paris Region had a GDP of €709 billion ($808 billion) in 2017. According to the Economist Intelligence Unit Worldwide Cost of Living Survey in 2018, Paris was the second most expensive city in the world, after Singapore, and ahead of Zürich, Hong Kong, Oslo and Geneva. Another source ranked Paris as most expensive, on a par with Singapore and Hong Kong, in 2018.
The city is a major railway, highway and air-transport hub served by two international airports: Paris–Charles de Gaulle (the second busiest airport in Europe) and Paris–Orly. Opened in 1900, the city's subway system, the Paris Métro, serves 5.23 million passengers daily; it is the second busiest metro system in Europe after the Moscow Metro. Gare du Nord is the 24th busiest railway station in the world, but the first located outside Japan, with 262 million passengers in 2015 Paris is especially known for its museums and architectural landmarks: the Louvre was the most visited art museum in the world in 2019, with 9.6 million visitors. The Musée d'Orsay, Musée Marmottan Monet, and Musée de l'Orangerie are noted for their collections of French Impressionist art, the Pompidou Centre Musée National d'Art Moderne has the largest collection of modern and contemporary art in Europe, and the Musée Rodin and Musée Picasso exhibit the works of two noted Parisians. The historical district along the Seine in the city centre is classified as a UNESCO Heritage Site, and popular landmarks in the city centre included the Cathedral of Notre Dame de Paris, on the Île de la Cité, now closed for renovation after the 15 April 2019 fire. Other popular tourist sites include the Gothic royal chapel of Sainte-Chapelle, also on the Île de la Cité; the Eiffel Tower, constructed for the Paris Universal Exposition of 1889; the Grand Palais and Petit Palais, built for the Paris Universal Exposition of 1900; the Arc de Triomphe on the Champs-Élysées, and the Basilica of Sacré-Coeur on the hill of Montmartre.
Paris received 38 million visitors in 2019, measured by hotel stays, with the largest numbers of foreign visitors coming from the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany and China. It was ranked as the second most visited travel destination in the world in 2019, after Bangkok and just ahead of London. The football club Paris Saint-Germain and the rugby union club Stade Français are based in Paris. The 80,000-seat Stade de France, built for the 1998 FIFA World Cup, is located just north of Paris in the neighbouring commune of Saint-Denis. Paris hosts the annual French Open Grand Slam tennis tournament on the red clay of Roland Garros. The city hosted the Olympic Games in 1900, 1924 and will host the 2024 Summer Olympics. The 1938 and 1998 FIFA World Cups, the 2007 Rugby World Cup, as well as the 1960, 1984 and 2016 UEFA European Championships were also held in the city. Every July, the Tour de France bicycle race finishes on the Avenue des Champs-Élysées in Paris." - info from Wikipedia.
Summer 2019 I did a solo cycling tour across Europe through 12 countries over the course of 3 months. I began my adventure in Edinburgh, Scotland and finished in Florence, Italy cycling 8,816 km. During my trip I took 47,000 photos.

William Albert Bellingrath
Shortly after the turn of the century, William Albert Bellingrath arrived in Montgomery, Alabama, where he began to earn a reputation as a pioneer in the Coca-Cola bottling industry and as a leader in the civic and social welfare of Montgomery and the state of Alabama. By 1901, as manager of the commissaries of the Woodstock Coal and Iron Company, he noticed a growing demand among the workers for a new beverage, and he developed a keen interest in the future of Coca-Cola. In 1903, Bellingrath along with his brother, Walter, purchased the Montgomery Coca-Cola franchise. Soon they were able to pay off their debt and purchase the Mobile franchise. William Bellingrath remained in Montgomery. Innovative ideas and strategies such as store deliveries and the installation of modern bottling equipment characterized the career of Bellingrath in Montgomery. He served as the president of the Coca-Cola Bottlers' Association in 1916. Bellingrath married Mary Nesbitt Elmore in 1906, and the couple contributed to the Montgomery philanthropic community for decades. Bellingrath served as a director of the Montgomery Chamber of Commerce; contributed to Huntingdon College where a building is named in his and his wife's honor; gave generously to the Presbyterian Home for Orphans at Talladega; was a trustee of Agnes Scott College in Atlanta; and was an elder of the Presbyterian Church.

St Mary, Coddenham, Suffolk
Coddenham has a reputation for being one of the poshest villages in Suffolk; within commuting distance of Ipswich for executives and businessmen, but beyond the reach of anyone ordinary. Despite this, the people in the shop seemed very friendly, and a poster in the window for village hall line-dancing sessions presented a side of the place I’d never imagined.
It is a very old village. The layout of the streets reflects this; there’s something not quite right about it. The blind corner opposite the shop was not meant for modern traffic, and the way the roads twist out of the village and into the fields seems stubborn, as if they do not want to conform to the needs of the modern world, but prefer to reflect something that was before, and is now gone. It may be that this is something to do with the fact that Coddenham was almost certainly the largest Roman settlement in Suffolk, at a time when Bury and Ipswich were tiny hamlets, and Lowestoft probably did not even exist.
A big clue that things were not always the way they are now is the 15th century porch on the side of St Mary. Instead of being perpendicular to the north aisle, as is usual, it is uniquely angled to face up the village street, at about sixty degrees to the north wall. At one time, the purpose of the street must have been simply to take the Faithful into the body of the church. Now, it approaches as before, but suddenly veers away wildly around the churchyard and down the hill. At one time, liturgical processions must have used it, but it isn’t clear if it was the Reformation that made the change, or a pressing need for villagers to get to Hemingstone in a hurry.
This was an important place on the eve of the Reformation. The clerestory is one of the most beautiful in Suffolk, particularly because it is not very long. It rises like battlements of lace, and the inscription reads orate pro animae Johannis Frenche et Margaret ('Pray for the souls of John and Margaret French'). At the east end of the north aisle is a gorgeous fat red-brick rood stair case, that obviously postdates the windows either side of it.
Wandering around to the east, I found the memorial to the 17th century Minister Matthias Candler. His firebrand Puritanism would have important consequences for Suffolk churchcrawlers. One of his parishioners was William Dowsing, who had a house in this village, although actually just over the border in Baylham parish. Dowsing learned to be a thorough-going protestant at the feet of Candler’s pulpit; in 1644, Dowsing would make a journey through Suffolk and Cambridgeshire on behalf of the Earl of Manchester, wrecking sacramental imagery in more than 250 churches. Candler died in 1663 while still Rector, which suggests that the Restoration of three years earlier had not been dramatic, or that Candler was a wily enough character to survive it.
I stepped through into a wide, urbanised nave, very much the product of a 19th century restoration under the watchful eyes of Richard Phipson. The 15th century brought glamorous aisles and the soaring clerestory; but this must have been a small church once, and the nave is now as wide as it is long. Beyond it, a vast 19th century chancel stretches so far that it doubles the length of the church; it was rebuilt in 1840, and then greatly extended in 1893 by the Anglo-catholics. It was clearly meant as a statement that sacramental liturgical practices were back. Candler and Dowsing must have turned in their graves.
If, externally, the clerestory is breathtaking, the internal glory of St Mary is undoubtedly the roof. It is very late medieval, probably 15th century, but Mortlock thought it might be 16th century. It is an unstained double hammerbeam roof, not quite so steeply pitched as is common in Suffolk. Angels gaze down from the gloom.
There are plenty of hatchments, for those who like that kind of thing, mostly to the Bacon family, one of Suffolk's most significant landed families. They also have a number of memorials, and even a window designed by one of them, the Pre-Raphaelite Percy Bacon.

Slander in forums, blog posts, and comments is among the most frequent cases taken on by online reputation management companies and, as such, it is a top concern of reputation management professionals.
This is a photograph from the finish of the annual Na Fianna AC "Bob Heffernan and Mary Hanley" 5KM Road Race and Fun Run which was held in Johnstownbridge, Co. Kildare, Ireland on Tuesday 17th May 2022 at 20:00. These photographs were taken around the 500m to go mark on the course.
This race needs no introductions as it is now firmly established on the Leinster road racing calendar with athletes travelling from all over the region to take part. The race has gained a glowing reputation as being one of the fastest 5KM road races in Ireland. It is one of the rare occasions around road racing circles these days where a very small club can organise a very successful large participation race. The attendance at this year's race exceeded all expectations. Today's race had a record attendance with over 700 participants finishing the race following on from around 600 finishers in 2019. This is the first staging of the race since May 2019 after two postponements due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This enforced hiatus has done nothing to reduce the allure of the race with runners coming from far and wide to participate. Popup Races were the official timing and event management partners of the race.
Our full set of photographs from today's race is at www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/albums/72177720299045746. Please acknowledge us if you use these photographs for any purpose
This race has great historical and emotional significance for the hosting club Na Fianna. Since the race's inception over 25 years ago it has commemorated 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. This year the dearly departed Mary Hanley joins Bob in receiving the honour of race dedication. Mary was a stalwart athlete, coach and volunteer for Na Fianna AC for her entire life right up to her untimely passing in summer 2021. Na Fianna AC are typical of many rural sporting clubs who have a large catchment area which combines rural North Kildare and South Meath taking in Enfield, Rathmoylan, Johnstownbridge and Baconstown. The race, known affectionately by club-members as simply "Bob's race" (and now Mary's) is a fitting tribute to commemorate his contribution to this sport. Indeed, not many road races are held in the same affection by runners as Bob's Race with runners returning back every year to sample the course and the wonderful atmosphere again. More rarely heard is runners reminiscing of running this race 15 or 20 years ago! What a fantastic endorsement of the race. Indeed, we remember the days 18 years ago when this race was held in the village of Rathmoylan about 10 miles from the current venue. In those days the race was deemed a success if 75 to 100 runners made the start line. What a testimony to the hard work of Na Fianna AC today's race is! The weather was perfect for road racing - hardly any wind and warm temperatures - with bright hazy sunshine.
The race is part of the Popup Races KIA Race Series. The race is a fixture on the Meath AAI Road Race calendar despite the fact that the race is run completely in County 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. The race starts on the busy Enfield to Edenderry 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. The course is very fast and flat - it is a one loop course which is left-handed in terms of turns.
Our photographer on the night was Martin Murphy from North Westmeath Athletic Club - thanks Martin!

Strobist info: One SB800 with a 36" shoot-through on the right, about 6 feet from the subject at 1/8th plus some. The flash was gelled with a full CTO and WB was set to fluorescent. I was shooting pretty slow, at about a 20th of a sec to pick up the ambient. Triggered with PWs, flash set to rear-curtain.
Endless thanks to Dustin Diaz for giving me the inspiration (which is what I call blatantly apeing him); and Zack Arias and Dave Hobby for giving me the know-how.

The World Museum of Mining was founded in 1963 when the close of Butte's mining heyday was less than two decades away. In the end Butte Montana experienced a century of hardrock mining and earned the reputation of being home to one of the world's most productive copper mines of all time. The Museum exists to preserve the enduring history of Butte and the legacy of its rich mining and cultural heritage.
The World Museum of Mining is one of the few museums in the world located on as actual mine yard- the Orphan Girl Mine. With fifty exhibit buildings, countless artifacts, and sixty-six primary exhibits in the mine yard.
Watkins Glen State Park is the most famous of the Finger Lakes State Parks, with a reputation for leaving visitors spellbound. Within two miles, the glen's stream descends 400 feet past 200-foot cliffs, generating 19 waterfalls along its course. The gorge path winds over and under waterfalls and through the spray of Cavern Cascade. Rim trails overlook the gorge. Campers and day-visitors can enjoy the Olympic-size pool, scheduled summer tours through the gorge, tent and trailer campsites, picnic facilities and excellent fishing in nearby Seneca Lake or Catherine Creek, which is renowned for its annual spring run of rainbow trout.

During the 70s and 80s the hotel began to establish its reputation as an important Aussie music icon, with Cold Chisel, AC/DC, The Little River Band and The Angels all playing here during the early days of their careers.
One of the periods that has had much attention and is referred to often are the days of Jimmy Barnes with Cold Chisel. Born James Dixon Swan (and better known as Jimmy Barnes) he holds the Largs Pier Hotel as a special part of his history and naming the bar Dixons is a fitting tribute to him.
The Largs Pier – The Pub That Rocked
The late Vince Lovegrove, talented muso, band manager and journalist, and his wife Helen ran the entertainment side of the venue in the early 70s, Helen recalls “One memorable night we had Rose Tattoo, Lobby Lloyd & The Coloured Balls”.
According to legend, Bon Scott, in the early days of his career lead singer with the Valentines, later with Fraternity and who became internationally famous as the lead singer of AC/DC, met his wife at the Largs Pier Hotel after a gig in 1971.
Jimmy Barnes returned to the Largs Pier in 2011 and reminisced about the good times he’d had in the “wild rock’n’roll pub”. Ref: adelaiderememberwhen
Established in 1882, the Largs Pier has long been an imposing landmark overlooking the Le Fevre Peninsula. Its three-storey bluestone structure with stuccoed arcades on all levels, elegant archways and its grand staircase, are all symbols of elegant craftmanship from a bygone era.
For years it served as a haven for shore-hungry sailors and as a landmark to port. Ship captains could set a course by the lights of the hotel which could be easily seen far out to sea. Ref: Largs Pier Hotel website
*Opening of Largs Bay Pier, Railway and Hotel.
The opening ceremony in connection with these works took place on Saturday afternoon last when, at the invitation of the Largs Bay Company, several hundred people assembled to celebrate the occasion.
On the arrival of the train from the Port, conveying the official party, the Hon W Everard, Chairman of Directors, declared the railway and jetty open.
The speech of the afternoon was given by the Hon W Morgan who proposed "Success to the Largs Bay Railway," and in doing so strongly commended the enterprise displayed by the Company, who had spent about £60,000 upon the works they saw. He spoke of the railway as being the quickest piece of work ever done in the colony, it having been completed in twenty-three working days. The Company, he said, had shown the Government how to construct a railway and jetty.
Most of the party returned to the Port by the train, some however, remaining to inspect more closely the works which have been carried out.
Of the Pier we may remark that it is 21 feet wide for 1,850 feet in length, and 50 feet for 250 feet further. At the outer end there is 19 feet depth of water at the lowest tide. The structure is of Jarrah timber. At 1,700 feet from the shore there is an L head with a breakwater attached to it, on the west side. Gas and water are laid on, and there are a dozen of comfortable hooded seats at intervals along the jetty, whilst at the T head there are seats to accommodate 200 people. Messrs Baillie, Davis, and Wishart were the contractors for this extensive work which has cost about £25,000.
LARGS PIER HOTEL. This handsome structure stands at the street corner facing the pier and the railway platform.
The building is in the Italian Ornate style of architecture and is three stories in height. It occupies a site 117 feet by 95 feet and is surrounded by an arcade 10 feet wide, being finished in cement. The basement floor is 14 feet in the clear from floor to ceiling, and the first floor and second floor each 13 feet. The basement floor contains a large public and two private bars, a coffee room, commercial room, dining room, two private parlours, kitchen, scullery, pantry, and storeroom. There is also a fine large billiard room furnished with two of Alcock's best patent table with adjustable toes. There are two large entrance halls to the hotel: one from the esplanade 10 feet wide, and one from Government Road 8 feet wide, at each of these there is a handsome vestibule screen with highly embossed glass, and elegant Minton tiles.
There is also a staircase hall 16 feet square, running through the whole height of the building and lighted at the top by a magnificent lantern light. A grand staircase communicates with the upper floors. It has a double and single flight on the first floor and two single flights on the second floor. The whole is composed of Kauri pine treads and rises, and polished cedar handrails and balusters with ornamental cast iron vessels. It is supported by large cast iron columns, which are beautifully bronzed, running the whole height.
The second floor contains fifteen bedrooms, two sitting rooms, two baths, and two water closets. It has fine roomy passages, and ventilation has been most carefully and effectively studied throughout the building, the lighting also being excellent. There is a fire plug on each floor, and the water has been so laid on that in the event of anything going wrong in the communication with one floor, it will in no way interfere with any of the other floors. The hotel is fitted up with electric bells of the newest principle, and speaking tubes communicate with the different portions of the house.
To the architects, Messrs Bayer and Withall, greatest praise is due for their excellent conception in the design of the building: and of Mr T U Bowes, the superintendent of the work. Ref: Port Adelaide News (SA)Tuesday 26 December 1882.
