A more "Full" body shot of Hershey. Haven't had the camera in about a month now. Lots going on around here. My Daughter-in Law is Japanese.She and my son were married in court a little over a year ago. My wife and I were the only ones in attendance. Her parents are coming in from Japan on Monday. We (my wife and I) will be meeting them on Tuesday at Dinner at a restaurant. To celebrate,we are having another wedding ceremony on Wednesday evening. Small gathering of about 30 people. Should be interesting as they don't speak English and we don't speak Japanese. My Daughter-in Law will be there to interpret(Hopefully!!) Lots of preparation. Hope you understand my lack of comments. My son has decided that I will be his "Photographer" for the evening. Lets see how This works out!!!

Agincourt, Trafalgar, Waterloo... you don’t have to be a learned scholar of our island history to know that, over the centuries, Britain’s entente with France has not always been cordiale.
Indeed, even in the recent years of firm (but wary) friendship, our two nations have often gone their divergent ways.
Leave aside the painful day in 1940, after France’s armistice with Hitler, when the Royal Navy was reluctantly obliged to sink the French fleet.
Think instead of France’s refusal to back us in the Falklands or (no matter how justifiably) Iraq. Or consider the 43 years, which ended only 19 months ago, during which the French rejected Nato.
Yet today, David Cameron and President Nicolas Sarkozy are to declare a new era of Anglo-French defence collaboration which will make independent action by either nation all but impossible.
Even at a time when it’s vital to save money, how can this be wise?
True, those who feel deeply uneasy about depending on France will be accused of living in the past. But it’s the future that worries the Mail.
Though Mr Cameron and M. Sarkozy may get along, where will Britain be left if we have to plead with a future French Socialist Government for the use of an aircraft carrier to defend our interests?
And how can the Tories, who rightly opposed plans for a European army, even consider handing operational control of the SAS to France?
Mr Cameron said yesterday: ‘The point is to enhance sovereign capability by two like-minded countries.’
We may be like-minded today, Prime Minister. But what about tomorrow?
A disingenuous gameSacked last year for attacking tougher controls on cannabis, the aptly-named Professor David Nutt tries a new approach to pushing his soft line on illegal drugs.
With fellow liberal campaigners, the former government drugs adviser publishes research — based on his own formula — purporting to prove that all illicit drugs, heroin included, are much less harmful than alcohol.
Let’s be clear. For many years, the Mail has been highlighting the damage done to society by alcohol abuse — and nobody has campaigned more vigorously for tighter rules, including an end to 24-hour licensing and cheap drink promotions.
But Professor Nutt is clearly pursuing a different agenda when he plays up the dangers of alcohol — preposterously suggesting that it should be classified as a Class A drug.
Isn’t his chief purpose to play down the harm done by illegal drugs such as cannabis and cocaine — just as he did last year, when he announced that ecstasy was less dangerous than horse-riding?
If he had experience of rundown estates, where girls sell their bodies for a fix of crack, would he be so blase about drug abuse?
Of course, Professor Nutt is entitled to his opinions. But when he dresses them up as science, he is playing a disingenuous and dangerous game.
Equality of failure
In the name of equality, Chief Schools Adjudicator Dr Ian Craig condemns faith schools for favouring families involved in church activities.
There’s a danger, he says, that they may be (shock, horror!) middle class.
Meanwhile, he warns that specialist music schools may be breaking the law by accepting gifted musicians according to their ‘ability’, rather than their ‘aptitude’.
In short, he won’t rest until all children, equally, are denied places at the schools that suit them best.
"the Royal Navy was reluctantly obliged to sink the French fleet."
Another betrayal from the British: killing 1,297 french soldiers for no reason and you dare to claim it was "obliged" to do so?
Appalling revisionnism from an appalling tabloid.

If not for this action , the French fleet would have been taken over and crewed by Germans, we may not have won the war and you could still be under Nazi occupation!!! please remember the traitors of the vichey who sided with the Germans killed more of your own countrymen than this reluctant action.

"For many years, the Mail has been highlighting the damage done to society by alcohol abuse - and nobody has campaigned more vigorously for tighter rules, including an end to 24-hour licensing and cheap drink promotions."
Why not campign for a ban? The Mail constantly spreads propoganda to convince people that cannabis should be illegal, when it causes 0 deaths a year. But when it comes to the 10,000+ deaths a year that alcohol causes, you just want tighter rules, and no 24-hour licenses.
So to recap, the Mail's stance is:
0 deaths - keep it illegal
10,000+ deaths - keep it legal

We must also remember that they mutinied at Sedan and our Commanders said that we would draw rhe germans off by starting the Somme offensive where we lost so many of our troops.
As a Sovereign Nation we should always retain command of our troops and Cameron will learn this at his and our peril.

How can this work if the French have truly independent nuclear capability and Britain must go cap in hand to the US in order to use its nuclear warheads? Politicians do love their little games.

Would prof Nutt be so blase about drug abuse if he witnessed girls selling their bodies for crack? What sort of stupid, biased, uninformed and bigoted question is that??!
Shame on you, Daily Mail. Irresponsible, over-emotional and totally inaccurate rhetoric. Get real please.

chiliamacisegua.wordpress.com/2009/10/13/con-il-cuore-a-p...
13-10-2009 - Le foto sono fortissime, sconsigliate a chi è debole.
Quali parole esistono per commentare, siamo ancora sconvolte perché noi avremmo voluto fare qualcosa per questa creatura innocente. Le parole non servono se non a farci sentire inermi davanti a queste realtà vissuta come un film horror.
Sono le diciassette e 23, ricevo la telefonata dalla polizia municipale di Olbia, nella strada verso le saline c’è un cane bisognoso di cure, l’utente che ha segnalato il caso ci accompagna. Arriviamo alla periferia di Olbia, in aperta campagna, località Monte Talbu.
Cerchiamo, del cane nessuna traccia.
Eppure era qui, continua a ripetere il nostro accompagnatore.
Guardo all’ orizzonte, vedo spuntare un uomo, in mano ha una roncola, tipo una falce lunga con il manico di ferro, mi avvicino, gli chiedo se ha visto un cane, quale cane, io non ho visto nessun cane, cosa ci fa con quell’arnese in mano gli chiedo?
Mi occorreva per mandare via i cinghiali, lei ha ammazzato il cane gli urlo con voce che si sta sempre di piu’ agitando, cosa dice mi risponde, io ai cani voglio bene.
Mette l’attrezzo in macchina mi prega di allontanarmi perché deve chiudere il cancello, lo imploro di farmi entrare per andare a vedere, mi rinvita ad andarmene, sempre con una pacatezza unica .
Intanto inizia a piovere e noi sotto la pioggia.
Lui con tutta calma se ne va.
Io scavalco la rete con il filo spinato, Barbara mi segue. Facciamo circa 300 metri quando intravedo tra le frasche il corpo di un cane.
Scuoto la testa, chiudo e riapro gli occhi piu’ volte, ma continuo a vederlo, ci avviciniamo, un urlo esce dalla gola: l’ha sgozzato, una pozza di sangue, e finito a colpi di roncola.
A questo punto ho un vuoto, forse voglio respingere le immagini, Barbara prende il cane e ritorniamo alla macchina. Ci prende la paura, la disperazione, quel corpino inerme e noi tutte macchiate di sangue, sangue ancora caldo di una creatura innocente.
Cio’ che proviamo………………, il nostro istinto è alimentato da azioni efferate che non riescono neppure piu’ ad essere filtrate dalla ragione.
La tentazione, allora è quella di voltare la testa dall’ altra parte per non vedere l’insopportabile sofferenza di tanta atrocità.
Il nostro accompagnatore ci lascia sole, tanto non c’è piu’ nulla da fare, la moglie ha paura, l’uomo sta scendendo.
Io e Barbara rimaniamo sole, in aperta campagna, sole, con l’uomo che ha ucciso il cane, ma noi ormai eravamo come in trance, non riuscivamo ad accettare tanta e gratuita crudeltà.
Mi avvicino, perché l’ ha fatto’ ? Perché continuo a ripetergli, mille perché ed uno sola risposta, il cane non era mio, me lo hanno dato perché era malato, non potevano piu’ tenerlo, c’erano dei bambini, io ci ho provato, volevo darle una possibilità ma non ci sono riuscito ed allora l’ho ucciso.
La paura diventa piu’ grande, io e Barbara ci guardiamo ma non riuscivamo a parlare se non con gli sguardi.
Chiamo la polizia, non puo’ venire, chiamo i vigili non possono venire subito, le grido che noi siamo sole, chiamo i carabinieri mentre l’uomo continua a ripeterci di non rovinarlo.
Arrivano due carabinieri che iniziano ad interrogarlo, chiedono di chiamare il proprietario del cane , arriva , scende dalla macchina e chiede cosa sia successo, il piccolo Angelo è a terra, per lui nemmeno uno sguardo, il cuore mi si stringe, io e Barbara siamo sconvolte.
E’ come vedere le sequenze di un bruttissimo ma veritiero film di una mente distorta, un pianeta alienato dove sono stati bruciati sentimenti.
Tutto questo mimetizzato da una frase che sembra normale, non lo volevano piu’, ormai ……… Pensate a quella creatura, sgozzata e finita a colpi, pensate ai suoi occhi sporchi di sangue. Sono le ventidue quando usciamo dalla caserma, io e Barbara MAI dimenticheremo tanta atrocità e tanta sofferenza. Ne abbiamo viste tante, ma una scena cosi’ non eravamo “pronte ad affrontarla.
La piccola era unaS femmina pura di Shar Pei.
Ciao piccolo Angelo, volevamo salvarti, sarebbero bastati pochi minuti, forse una manciata di secondi, troppo tardi per strappati al tuo destino crudele, non meritavi una morte cosi’ terribile , tu che in fondo non sei mai stata amata.
Please comment and vote on whether you prefer a major expansion of solar power or a major expansion of one of the other main power sources such as wind, nuclear, coal or tidal power. Clearly no single source can cover every situation in our production of electricity.....we will undoubtedly need to use all of the above in varying degrees. So I stress for you to CHOOSE BETWEEN A MAJOR EXPANSION OF SOLAR OR OTHER ELECTRICAL ENERGY SOURCES.
REMEMBER : YOU VOTE #07, SOLAR or OTHER? Thank you!
A little further background can be found within the first comment. This is the seventh in a series of photos on which you are invited to vote an opinion. You are allowed one vote each time you comment. I will close the voting and announce the result when I feel like it.
Do NOT reblog, repin or use this photo without my direct permission!
Day 29 - Camp Jabez Open House
This was taken with my 50mm f/1.8 II and set to B/W in Lightroom. :)
Melody (Light hair) and Sue (dark hair). :) The Open House for camp was today! It was amazing. Even though it was pretty cold (around 45 degrees...brrr...compared to the upper 50's and low 60's we've been used to!!) , everyone had a good time.
Sorry this isn't as sharp as it should be. Taking pictures of Sue is really, really, really hard...since she thinks she doesn't look good in them and will only stand still for a half second to let you take one. :) So I had to be really quick, and didn't have time to put the dot exactly where it was supposed to be. This is actually a pretty good picture of Sue. Love her!! I can't imagine life with you, Lovely. :) I love how when I look into her eyes in this I can just feel her warmth and love. :D

Here's the package of goodies Hero Arts sent for my "green" comment. LUCKY ME! The Hero Hues Foliage Papers are so beautiful and superb quality, with a very smooth "hand" (as we would say if dealing with fabric). The four-flower set, Take Good Care Greetings, stamps beautifully, of course. And a great bonus: copies of the HA catalogs! Yay!
Thank you, Hero Arts!
This is a photograph from the start of the 36th Michael Manning Memorial "Dunshaughlin 10KM" Road Race and Fun Run which took place in Dunshaughlin, Co. Meath, Ireland on Saturday 20th June 2015 at 19:30. This race is widely acknowledged within the Irish running community as one of the best races in Ireland. While being very well attended and competitive it is also one of the oldest 10KM races in Ireland. The numbers for this race have exceeded expectations year on year for the past number of years. In 2008 a record field of 306 took to the start line but by 2012 this number had more than doubled with 647 runners taking part. The starting numbers in 2013 topped this again at 668. Last year, 2014, the numbers rocketed to a new record of 883. This year 862 finished the race showing that the race continues to attract very substantial crowds. This year, as in previous years, the race attracted runners from not just all of Leinster but from the four corners of Ireland. Who knows but this race could reach 1,000 entrants next year. The work of the organising committee must be commended on making this event possible. The Dunshaughlin 10KM has earned it's place at the top of the pedestal of Irish running through the sheer hard work of Dunshaughlin AC over the years. Road race events do not survive on their own. There must be dedication, hard work and a development vision amongst the committee and the host club. Well done to all.
We have an extensive set of photographs from the race tonight taken at the 1 mile mark. The full set is available at: www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/sets/72157654432568258

Your mobile, tablet, or desktop device will also offer you several different options for sharing this photo page on your social media outlets.
BUT..... Wait there a minute....
We take these photographs as a hobby and as a contribution to the running community in Ireland. We do not charge for our photographs. Our only "cost" is that we request that if you are using these images: (1) on social media sites such as Facebook, Tumblr, Pinterest, Twitter,LinkedIn, Google+, VK.com, Vine, Meetup, Tagged, Ask.fm,etc or (2) other websites, blogs, web multimedia, commercial/promotional material that you must provide a link back to our Flickr page to attribute us or acknowledge us as the original photographers.
This also extends to the use of these images for Facebook profile pictures. In these cases please make a separate wall or blog post with a link to our Flickr page. If you do not know how this should be done for Facebook or other social media please email us and we will be happy to help suggest how to link to us.
I want to download these pictures to my computer or device?
You can download this photographic image here directly to your computer or device. This version is the low resolution web-quality image. How to download will vary slight from device to device and from browser to browser. Have a look for a down-arrow symbol or the link to 'View/Download' all sizes. 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. For offline usage and printing all of the photographs posted here on this Flickr set are available free, at no cost, at full image resolution.
Please email petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com with the links to the photographs you would like to obtain a full resolution copy of. We also ask race organisers, media, etc to ask for permission before use of our images for flyers, posters, etc. We reserve the right to refuse a request.
In summary please remember when requesting photographs from us - If you are using the photographs online all we ask is for you to provide a link back to our Flickr set or Flickr pages. You will find the link above clearly outlined in the description text which accompanies this photograph. Taking these photographs and preparing them for online posting takes a significant effort and time. We are not posting photographs to Flickr for commercial reasons. If you really like what we do please spread the link around your social media, send us an email, leave a comment beside the photographs, send us a Flickr email, etc. If you are using the photographs in newspapers or magazines we ask that you mention where the original photograph came from.
I would like to contribute something for your photograph(s)?
Many people offer payment for our photographs. As stated above we do not charge for these photographs. We take these photographs as our contribution to the running community in Ireland. If you feel that the photograph(s) you request are good enough that you would consider paying for their purchase from other photographic providers or in other circumstances we would suggest that you can provide a donation to any of the great charities in Ireland who do work for Cancer Care or Cancer Research in Ireland.
Let's get a bit technical: 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?
The explaination is very simple.
Attribution- anyone using our photographs gives us an appropriate credit for it. This ensures that people aren't taking our photographs and passing them off as their own. 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.
Above all what Creative Commons aims to do is to encourage creative sharing. See some examples of Creative Commons photographs on Flickr: www.flickr.com/creativecommons/
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

Comment on the negative impacts of an invasive and two opportunistic species on the biota of Willapa Bay as part of the actions being considered to control.
So. This is a lil late. But I've been busy since 2010 started :P
Hope everyone's New Years went well! :)
Ottograph (Otto Kruijsen) bio:
Ottograph studied Rietveld Academy in Amsterdam, but started making
street art when he was 10 years old.
Since then he made murals in Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Berlin, Antwerp,
New York, Maui and Moskou. Ottograph has had exhibitions all over Europe,
and worked for clients like Greenpeace, Tommy Hilfiger, Nike, Mars, and Merecedes-Benz.
Alone, or together with friends, Ottograph has been responsible for very succesfull projects like: Supermart, Brown Bag Bulletin, CIA(Central Illustration Agency) and KMDG(Kwasten met de Gasten).
Ottograph, addicted to painting, needs to move massive amounts
of paint every day to keep himself happy. Ottograph soundbites:
'the bigger the brush, the better the painting' and: 'i have no further comments untill i've had contact with my lawyer'.
