DJ's Erick E and Fedde Le Grand threw a balloon powered houseparty at 4500 feet for the Radio538&Warchild charity week.
The largest Dutch radio station and the charity that helps children and parents from war-torn regions setup a stunt-filled week to raise funds to help as many children as possible. People could get chosen to do all sorts of stunt by texting the special number. Persons lucky enough to send the xxth text message were chosen for the stunt. In this case 60 people for a rare feat: tying three hot air ballons for a house party at 4500 feet!
As a senior Radio538 photographer, I was asked to photograph one of the coolest stunts of the week and got to climb aboard the formerly largest hot air balloon in the world with a group of collegues.

Cornwall's Bridge is Coming Down.
It was announced last week, this bridge who served us well for over 48 years, will be coming down, as a new lower span bridge will be built to a tune of $75.000.000
The Bridge, opened in 1962, connects the City of Cornwall to Cornwall Island.
In 2000, the international border crossing that the Seaway International Bridge comprises was named the Three Nations Crossing, in honour of the Mohawks of Akwesasne who inhabit the region.
On May 31, 2009, Akwesasne Mohawks peacefully occupied the area around the Canadian Border Security Agency's (CBSA) port of entry building to protest the Canadian government's decision to arm border agents on Mohawk land by June 1, 2009. At 11:45 p.m. on May 31, the border guards were ordered by the CBSA to leave the building, Canadian Customs was closed, and the north span of the bridge was closed. Although American Customs remained opened for south-bound traffic, north-bound traffic was blocked on the American side by both American and Canadian officials. Over the following six weeks, the Canadian border officially remained closed (though there were a few leaks. At 06:00 on July 13, CBSA opened a "temporary" border post at the north end of the north span of the bridge in the city of Cornwall, effectively opening the bridge for all traffic in both directions.

The pagodas at Three Pagodas Pass on the Thai/Myanmar border, Kanchanaburi, Thailand.
The pass has been the main land route between India and South East Asia since ancient times. It is believed that Buddhism spread from India into Thailand this way. It was also the route through which Thai and Burmese forces attacked each other and the route through which the Japanese built the infamous "Death Railway" during World War 2. These days there is a simple border crossing but it is only open for local traders to reach the small markets on either side. It is closed to international travellers.

South’s Landis Jacket 1972 From Doris, Joan and MH Freeze. Kathy Morgan made the effort to get the year book to Shane K Smith 20150125. This is an amazing accomplishment. Shane has scanned all three Junior High School years on both sides of South from 1970, 1971 and 1972. That was the Landis side and the China Grove side. He has also scanned The South Rowan 1973, 1974 and 1975 Year books courtesy @Tim Smith and Shane Smith. Keith Belk provided Landis 1970 and 1971 If there is another annual out there that fed South Rowan High School please inform Shane and he will try to find one and scan it. Shane has even scanned a couple Catawba College yearbooks for our South friends of Tim Smith that went on to Catawba.
Shane has 28 albums scanned saved and titled here of our more famous friends have grown: www.flickr.com/photos/shanesflyingdiscshow/collections/72.... Shane has received over 40,000 views as of 20150125.
The idea was a brainstorm of Shane’s to capture a then and now atmosphere for The Class of 1975. That would include Junior High annuals from 1970, 1971 and 1972. Then South annuals from 1973, 1974 and our Graduation for 1975. Beyond that Shane has followed hundreds of our friends and updated Now photos. Shane has noticed that although I have 100’s of our friends documented there are still hundreds of our friends no where to be found. If you know of any person we went to school with that has a current photo of them from anywhere that I have missed please get that photo to me!
Facebook will only let me put 1,000 photos in each album. Plus they won’t sort the albums in any order. So you can get lost looking for photos in the Facebook album section from Shane. So I built a Flickr account. Most of my photos are titled which was no small feat. You will have to create an account to view, but so what. It
S free and you get one TB TERA BYTE of photos you can store in full resolution. You can have prints made from my pages. You can search for your old heart breaking friend. I will continue to add those that have supported me in friendship and I add those that hate me. However the biggest challenge now is to find those that haven’t made it to computer land yet. My posts will be less frequent concerning South as I have two file cabinets full of Shane’s Flying Disc Show PR and Newspaper clippings, routes and notes for another great set of friends that traveled the Country inspiring adults and Youth to be active and throw Frisbees! You can find some of my Frisbee Flying Disc Pioneering here: www.flickr.com/photos/shanesflyingdiscshow/collections/72.... I will be interrupting posts from time to time with every day shots and events and have a goal to own a Fifth Wheel Camper for my Truck. My life’s rhythm could be changing.
This is a photograph from the 5th "Mullingar 10" - a 10 mile road race and fun run which was held in Dalystown, Mullingar, Co. Westmeath, Ireland on Sunday July 27th 2019 at 11:00. Dalystown is a rural parish situated about 6 miles south of Mullingar. The race was organised by the Mullingar Harriers Athletics Club who promote the event. There was over 350 participants in the event. A t-shirt and medal were awarded to all participants and finishers.
The race follows a simple 'figure of 8' route. The race starts from Dalystown National School and heads north briefly to Dalystown cross-roads where there is a left turn which brings runners along the L1122 road. The only real cross-over of the route is at the 2.5 and 7.5 mile mark. The race completes a loop between 2.5 and the 7.5 mile mark which brings runners into the locality of Ballinagore. The final 2.5 miles of the race brings runners back through Cloneheigue and the final 1.5 miles of the race is along straight road heading north back to Dalystown and the finish outside of Wallace's Pub. The race start/finish/HQ are accessible from the Mullingar-Tullamore road (the N52).
The course was a mixture of long straight level sections of road with some short rolling hills which makes for a challenging but overall fair course. The race took place is rather warm temperatures for distance running with little or no breeze/wind. A temperature of around 19C was recorded at the start of the race. However some beautiful mature hedgerows along the mostly rural roads provided shade and shelter from the sun for runners. Three water stations were provided on the route to help keep participants hydrated.
Timing and event management was again provided by Irish company MyRunResults. All of the results from today's race and associated media are available on their website.
This was the fifth year of the event and going on today's event it will continue to establish itself as an annual fixture on the calendar. Clubs from all over the North Leinster region and beyond were represented today. Refreshments were provided outside Wallace's Pub at the Finish line. Well done to Mullingar Harriers and all the many volunteers who helped make today's race a wonderful success. There is a very significant amount of volunteer organisation and work required to make a distance race like this a success.
