I did say the place was a maze.

Caesarea is believed to have been built on the ruins of Stratonospyrgos (Straton's Tower), founded by Straton I of Sidon. It was probably an agricultural storehouse in its earliest configuration.

In 90 BCE, Alexander Jannaeus captured Straton's Tower as part of his policy of developing the shipbuilding industry and enlarging the Hasmonean kingdom. Straton's Tower remained a Jewish city for two generations, until the Roman conquest of 63 BCE when the Romans declared it an autonomous city.

The pagan city underwent vast changes under Herod the Great, who renamed it Caesarea in honor of the emperor. In 22 BCE he began construction of a deep sea harbor and built storerooms, markets, wide roads, baths, temples to Rome and Augustus, and imposing public buildings. Every five years the city hosted major sports competitions, gladiator games, and theatrical productions.

Caesarea also flourished during the Byzantine period. In the 3rd century the Jewish sages exempted the city from Jewish commandments as by this time the majority of the inhabitants were non-Jewish. The city was chiefly a commercial centre relying on trade. The area was only seriously farmed during the Rashidun Caliphate period, apparently until the Crusader conquest in the eleventh century. Over time, the farms were buried under the sands shifting along the shores of the Mediterranean.

In 1251, Louis IX fortified the city. The French king ordered the construction of high walls (parts of which are still standing) and a deep moat. However strong the walls were, they could not keep out the sultan Baybars, who ordered his troops to scale the walls in several places simultaneously, enabling them to penetrate the city.

Caesarea lay in ruins until the nineteenth century when the settlement of Qisarya (Arabic: قيسارية‎) was established in 1884 by Muslim immigrants from Bosnia who built a small fishing village on the ruins of the Crusader fortress on the coast. Many of the village's inhabitants left before 1948, when a railway was built bypassing the port, ruining their livelihood. The fishing village had a population of 1,148 at the last census taken in 1948. During the 1948 Arab-Israeli War part of the population fled for fear of attacks, before it was conquered by Jewish forces in February, after which the remaining inhabitants were expelled and the village houses were demolished.

We offer modular plugs in standard configurations to terminate modular cords for patching or work area applications. Modular plugs can be terminated to the exact cable length needed in order to maintain a neater, more organized installation. The plugs terminate twisted-pair cable with 26 – 22 AWG (0.40mm – 0.64mm) solid or 7-strand conductors with an insulated conductor diameter of 0.86 – 0.99mm (0.034 – 0.039 in.). All plug contacts have 50 microinches minimum of gold plating over nickel and meet TIA-968-A and IEC 60603-7 specifications.

This is a photograph from a set of photographs taken at the St. Coca's AC 5KM Road Race 2016 which was held in Kilcock, Co. Kildare, Ireland at 20:00 on Friday 24th June 2016. This superb road race is now firmly established again as one of the fastest and best organised road races of it's kind in Leinster. The race follows a left handed course around a well known local walking route around Laragh and in the closing kilometer runs parallel to the Royal Canal into the finish at the railway station in the town having started at the primary school close to the St. Coca's running track. In fact for several hundred meters after the 4KM marker towards the finish the course runs parallel with the railway, canal and the R148 between Kilcock and Maynooth. This geographic feature is one of only a small number with this parallel configuration in all of Europe.

The members of St. Coca's AC and the many volunteers from the local community must be given great praise for organising another fantastic night of racing for runners, joggers, and walkers. The 5KM course is very flat with the exception of short incline up a motorway overpass and makes its way along narrow country lanes sheltered on either side by hedgerows. The nice summer evening made for an enjoyable night for everyone with a large crowd gathering at the finish to cheer on participants. Refreshments and prize awards were held in the Kilcock GAA club near to both the race start and close to the St. Coca's running track.

My first configurations box... I created this for my older sister as a birthday gift. She loves the beach, but now lives land-locked so I thought it would be a nice reminder for her. I used a variety of real shells, paper from the DCWV "Tradewinds" stack, acrylic paint, various TH products (mini spinner and crackle paint) and some miscellaneous charms from a dear friend (thanks, Zoe!). The lighting for these photographs is terrible so I don't think they do this project justice. It will sound conceited, but this was way more beautiful in real life. LOL.

Configuration Gr.1

Three monitor configuration I'm using to help me continue functioning while wait to afford cataract surgery and the lenses. My left eye (I just discovered) is now uncorrectable by any glasses. Just in the last 7 days it went from having some vision to now being a cloud at all distances.

As you can see the monitor on the left is in portrait mode (19 inches @ 1024x1280). The other two are landscape (30 inches @ 2560x1600 and 24 inches @ 1920x1080).

More details are at ether:

or

ac9dfe7fd.livejournal.com/69841.html

I like to pick up on small details and one caught my eye during the Christmas period. For years the training configuration has been a inert AIM-9M/X on the outboard wing station, and a AIM-120 on the inboard. Now all of a sudden they've swapped the positions on all the 493rd jets that were flying, I wonder why?

That phrase was nicked from a "PEANUTS" comic strip....but it's as good of a description as any, IMO. (Apologies to CHARLES M. SCHULZ)

The final-configuration Boeing 2707 mockup was sold to a museum and displayed at the SST Aviation Exhibit Center in Kissimmee, Florida, from 1973 to 1981. In 1983, the building, complete with SST, was purchased by the Faith World church. For years the Osceola New Life Assembly of God held services there with the airplane still standing above. In 1990, the mock-up was sold to aircraft restorer Charles Bell, who moved it, in pieces, to Merritt Island, in order to preserve it while it waited for a new home as the church now wanted the space for expansion. The forward fuselage was on display at the Hiller Aviation Museum of San Carlos, California, for many years, but in early 2013, was moved back to Seattle, where it is undergoing restoration at the Museum of Flight.

The Boeing 2707 was an American supersonic passenger airliner project during the 1960s. After winning a competition for a government-funded contract to build an American supersonic airliner, Boeing began development at its facilities in Seattle, Washington. The design emerged as a large aircraft with seating for 250 to 300 passengers and cruise speeds of approximately Mach 3. It was intended to be much larger and faster than preceding SST designs such as Concorde.

The SST was the topic of considerable concern within and outside the aviation industry. From the start, the airline industry noted that the economics of the design were questionable, concerns that were only partially addressed during development. Outside the field, the entire SST concept was the subject of considerable negative press, centered on the issue of sonic booms and effects on the ozone layer.

A key design feature of the 2707 was its use of a swing wing configuration. During development the required weight and size of this mechanism continued to grow, forcing the team to start over using a conventional delta wing. Rising costs and the lack of a clear market led to its cancellation in 1971 before two prototypes had been completed.

This is a photograph from the 4th and final round of the 2017 Pat Finnerty Memorial 5KM Road League which was held in Belvedere House and Gardens, Mullingar, Co. Westmeath, Ireland on Wednesday 24th May 2017 at 20:00. This is the final round and consequently some of the decisions around the final configuration of the category prizes are still open for resolution. The Road League is promoted and organised by Mulligar Harriers Athletic Club and sponsored by local sponsors including O'Brien's Renault dealership. This is a very well established as an annual event which takes place on every Wednesday night in the month of May. Tonight's weather was absolutely wonderful. Warm summer air filled the Belvedere area as the runners were treated to perfect summer weather. Just under 200 participants took part in the race which runs a traffic free course over a mix of road and hilly forest trail. Congratulations are due to all of the Mullingar Harriers club who put this excellent series together.

Timing and event management was provided by http://www.myrunresults.com/. Their website will contain the results to today's race.

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

+++ DISCLAIMER +++

Nothing you see here is real, even though the conversion or the presented background story might be based on historical facts. BEWARE!

Some Background:

During November 1981, Kawasaki was selected as the main contractor to design and manufacture a suitable trainer aircraft to meet the needs of Japan's MT-X program, having beaten out rival bids from Mitsubishi and Fuji. The MT-X program had been launched to procure a replacement for the aging Lockheed T-33 and Fuji T-1 jet trainer aircraft then in service in the Japan Air Self Defense Force (JASDF). Furthermore, there was also a desire for the prospective trainer aircraft to take over some of the syllabus that was being handled by the contemporary Mitsubishi T-2, a supersonic trainer variant of the Mitsubishi F-1 fighter aircraft. The initial program planned for a production run of 220 aircraft and an entry into service date of 1988.

The type had to demonstrate a range of transonic aerodynamic effects, as well as achieving a high level of maneuverability, a relatively low operating cost, and high reliability levels. Easy handling was also required so that trainees could convert from the piston-engine Fuji T-3 after accumulating only 70 flying hours. Furthermore, the economics for operating the type was to be comparable to the leading international competitors at that time.

The overall development lasted – notwithstanding the attempt to speed the process up – for almost ten years, though. The first serial production A-2s were delivered in late 2002 and gradually replaced the last operational Mitsubishi F-1 fighter bombers in JASDF service until 2006. A total of 64 machines were ordered and produced; the final batch of eight factory-new A-2s was delivered until 2008, and the machines were allocated to two wings, based in Southern and Northern Japan, the JASDF's 308th and 309th hikotai, respectively.

The kit and its assembly:

In the past, I have converted a number of Kawasaki T-4s into fictional Saab Sk 90 trainers, even though these were primarily cosmetic and not structural mods. When I recently finished a Hungarian Sk 90 in a soviet-style sand/green livery, it struck me that the T-4’s outlines resemble those of the (bigger) Suchoj Su-25’s a lot. From this inspiration the idea of a single-seater attack variant of the T-4 for the JASDF, maybe as a simpler/modest replacement for the indigenous F-1 for 2000 onward, was born.

Adapting the two-seater to the attack role required a new cockpit section, and I went for a thorough conversion: instead of simply making it a single seater from OOB parts (like the Mitsubishi F-1 with a faired-over rear cockpit) I transplanted the front section from a Eurocopter PAH-1 Tiger, with its short nose, the whole front cockpit and the flat panel canopy. It turned out to be a little wider than the T-4 fuselage, but the area behind the new cockpit had to be sculpted with 2C putty, anyway, so I wrapped this filler section around the whole hull, smoothing out the transitional area. The result looks pretty brutal, though!

Due to the modified cockpit position the front landing gear well was modified (effectively reversed) and a sturdier front wheel strut with twin wheels was installed.

The rest of the hull as well as the wing surfaces were taken OOB. Bigger LERXs and small wing fences were sculpted from 0.5mm styrene sheet. Missile launch rails from an Italeri BAe Hawk were added and blended into the rounded original wing tips, too, as well as an additional pair of underwing pylons and hardpoints under the fuselage and the air intakes.

The ordnance, consisting of a pair of ASM-1 missiles as well as four IR-guided Mk. 82 bombs on twin racks and a pair of AAM-3 missiles on the wing tips came from a Hasegawa 1:72 JASDF weapon set. A small LANTIRN pod was scratched from a piece of sprue and mounted to one of the hardpoints under the air intakes.

Painting and markings:

Finding a suitable yet somewhat authentic livery for the A-2 was not easy. I initially favored a bronze green/dark earth “tiger stripe” livery with additional black contrast lines, similar to the JASDF AH-1s, but eventually rejected that because it would IMHO not work well on a fast aircraft that would also operate a lot over naval terrain.

After some search I settled on a rather fragmented (but quite attractive) “Lizard/Europe One” camouflage variant, carried by Japanese C-130s, consisting of FS 34092, 34102 and 36118, with uniform grey undersides. For the model I used Humbrol 149, 117 and 125, respectively. The enamel paints turned partyl out to be of dubious Chinese production (both green tones), so that the paint finish did not turn out as good as expected - too much paint ended up on the model to make the paint coats truly opaque. Later post-shading with slightly lighter tones, after a black ink washing, mended the issue a little, but unfortunately the overall paint quality is rather poor. Hrmpf. :-(

The cockpit tub was painted in anthracite (Revell 06), while the air intakes and the landing gear and its respective wells were painted in glossy white - very conservative. The Japanese Sidewinders and the ASM-1s became medium grey, while the IR-guided bombs received blue training bodies (instead of "hot" iron bombs in olive drab) as a nice color detail.

Decals/markings mostly came from the T-4's OOB sheet, and as a final step the model was sealed with matt acrylic varnish what somewhat improved the poor paint finish, too - but's still not what I expected to achieve.

Even though primarily onle the nose was changed this conversion made the stubby T-4 look like a very much different aircraft - and it inspires many associations, including Su-25 and Yak-130 elements, you can see a gekko and even a scorpion fish in it (what eventually earned it its nichname ;-)). While the paint finish is not as convincing as hoped for I think the overall impression of a JASDF attack aircraft is certainly there, the A-2 looks quite plausible (and ugly, too!).

The seahorse is one of my original designs. The blue "anchor" is the logo of Royal Caribbean cruise lines. The travel charm I made for swapping on the ship. I also made the sunset charm. The wooden turtle came from a straw market on St. Thomas. The sunrise and sunset photos I took while on the ship. The bit of "fishy" dictionary text came from one of Tim's packages (his products all had neat paper packaging included).

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

In 2012 we received from NASA an order for 6 new models of International Space Station. NASA requested to modify our current model in order to represent the latest changes and additions to ISS so the model will depict the most current and updated configuration.

The foam lining in the transit cases for modified models was adjusted accordingly to accommodate the models and new separate elements.

Along with the order of 6 modified models for NASA we also produced one model in luxury edition for CERN, which was shipped to Geneva, Switzerland and receive excellent feedbacks for its accuracy and versatility.

Visit www.lifeinscale.net/ISS_model-2012_configuration.asp for more information.

The final configuration of these Wreck Beach friends and musicians is as there original group: "The Rekkerz", Wayne Legreeley takes on lead guitar and vocals with Jamie Strachen on drums and lead vocals despite a nasty lung infection, and Brian Berry on base and backing vocals. Classic 60s & 70s Rock 'n' Roll and R&B, familiar territory for this group, all songs they know and love. Great show boys! and Thanks to Jamie and Brian for backing all 3 configurations, it was a long night, 4 hours of music from 9:00 p,m. PDT June 27, to 1:00 a.m. June 28. Four hours of playing for Jamie and Brian.
