Editor’s Notes:
About Cork Cancer Research Centre (CCRC)
The Cork Cancer Research Centre is an independent research centre focused on developing new treatments for secondary cancer. Key to centre’s success is the clear collaboration between surgeons and physicians in practice with speciality cancer researchers to apply their findings in practice. Its purpose is to provide discovery and innovations that may be applied to the prevention of the cancer in the first place or to the development of more effective treatment strategies. Our main focus is to find new treatments for patients who do not respond to conventional chemotherapy. In terms of our research activities, the Centre has brought five cancer treatments from the laboratory to clinical trial. More information about their work is available on www.ccrc.ie. Although we are living in challenging economic times, research must progress if we are to continue advancing new cancer treatments and positively impacting patient lives.

2012 is a 2012 American epic science fiction disaster film directed by Roland Emmerich and starring John Cusack, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Amanda Peet, Oliver Platt, Thandie Newton, Danny Glover and Woody Harrelson. The film was produced by Centropolis Entertainment and distributed by Columbia Pictures. it released on December 22, 2012.
Plot
In 2009, American geologist Adrian Helmsley visits astrophysicist Satnam Tsurutani in India and learns that neutrinos from a huge solar flare are heating Earth's core. Helmsley presents his information to White House Chief of Staff Carl Anheuser, who brings him to meet the president.
The following year, U.S. President Thomas Wilson and other world leaders begin a secret project to ensure the survival of humanity. China and the G8 nations begin building nine arks, each capable of carrying 100,000 people, in the Himalayas near Cho Ming, Tibet. Nima, a Buddhist monk, is evacuated and his brother Tenzin joins the ark project. Funding is raised by selling tickets at €1 billion per person. By 2011, articles of value are moved to the arks with the help of art expert and First Daughter Laura Wilson.
In 2012, struggling Los Angeles science-fiction writer Jackson Curtis is a chauffeur for Russian billionaire Yuri Karpov. Jackson's former wife Kate and their children Noah and Lilly live with Kate's boyfriend, plastic surgeon and pilot Gordon Silberman. Jackson takes Noah and Lilly camping in Yellowstone National Park. When they find an area fenced off by the Army, Jackson and his children climb over the fence. They are caught and brought to Adrian, who has read Jackson's books. After they are released they meet conspiracy theorist Charlie Frost, who hosts a radio show from the park.
That night, after the military evacuates Yellowstone, Jackson watches Charlie's video of Charles Hapgood's theory that polar shifts and the Mesoamerican Long Count calendar predict a 2012 phenomenon and the end of the world as we know it. According to Charlie, anyone who attempted to inform the public was killed. Soon after Jackson and his children return home, earthquakes begin in California; Jackson heeds Charlie's warning, and rents a private plane. He rescues his family as the Earth-crust displacement begins, causing a 10.9 magnitude earthquake, and Jackson and his family escape from Los Angeles by air as the city collapses and sinks into the Pacific Ocean, killing millions of residents.
They fly to Yellowstone to retrieve a map from Charlie with the arks' location. As they leave, the Yellowstone Caldera erupts; Charlie is killed when he stays behind to cover the eruption. The group lands in Las Vegas to find a larger plane and meet Yuri, his twin sons Alec and Oleg, his girlfriend Tamara and their pilot Sasha. Sasha and Gordon fly them out in an Antonov An-500 as the Yellowstone ash cloud envelops Las Vegas. An attempted refueling stop in Hawaii is abandoned after seeing the islands consumed by flows of lava as a result of the erupting volcanos.
Adrian, Carl, and Laura fly to the arks on Air Force One. Knowing that his daughter will survive, President Wilson remains in Washington, D.C. to address the nation for the last time while millions of people die in earthquakes and megatsunamis worldwide, including himself. With the presidential line of succession gone, Carl assumes the position of acting commander-in-chief.
When Jackson's group reaches China, their plane runs out of fuel. Sasha continues flying the plane as the others escape on a Bentley Continental Flying Spur stored in the cargo hold. Sasha is killed when the plane crashes, and the others are spotted by Chinese Air Force helicopters. Yuri and his sons (who have tickets) are brought to the arks and the Curtis family, Tamara and Gordon are left behind as Sasha and Tamara were having an affair. The remaining group is picked up by Nima and brought to the arks with his grandparents. With Tenzin's help, they stow away on Ark 4, where the U.S. contingent is located. As a megatsunami breaches the Himalayas and approaches the site, an impact driver lodges in the ark-door gears. This keeps a boarding gate open, which prevents the ship's engines from starting. In the ensuing chaos, Yuri, Tamara, and Gordon are killed. Tenzin is injured, the ark begins filling with water and is set adrift. Jackson and Noah dislodge the tool and the crew regains control of the Ark before it strikes Mount Everest. Jackson is reunited with his family and reconciles with Kate.
Twenty-seven days later, the waters are receding. The arks approach the Cape of Good Hope, where the Drakensberg (now the tallest mountain range on Earth) is emerging. Adrian and Laura begin a relationship, and Jackson and Kate rekindle their romance.
When I photograph the older parts of Dublin I will often attract the attention of the self appointed local historian and today was not an exception. The gentleman in question told me that the lifting bridge was built by Earl Spencer the paternal grandfather of Diana Spencer. The problem with such stories is that the facts may be “alternative” but they are often true so they cannot be easily dismissed. I did, however, have some problems with the story for the following reasons.
[1] Spencer Dock was originally known as the Royal Canal Docks
[2] Diana’s Grand Father or his father had no connection with Ireland.
[3] The bridge appears to have an electric motor dating from the 1940s or 1950s
Anyway I decided to check a history of the docklands published by Turtle Bunbury [by the way the book features one of my photographs] and I came across the following: “The new dock was a work of ‘entirely private enterprise’ and cost £58,000. On the beautiful afternoon of 15th April 1873, (Sir) Ralph Cusack, Chairman of the MGWR, opened the new dock and formally named it Spencer after the Lord Lieutenant, Earl Spencer, great-great grandfather of Diana, Princess of Wales.”
So there was some basis to the local historian’s claim however the bridge associated with the development was at the time described as “an ingenious hydraulic bridge” and it was the work of the railway’s engineer Mr Price. The bridge in my photographs does not really match the description above.
The available information available is confusing but the bridge in my photographs appears to be referred to as the Sheriff Street Lifting Bridge but also as the Sheriff Street Spencer Drawbridge but it was built in 1941 as a replacement for an older swivel bridge dating from 1873.
Just before I published my photographs I came across this “However, on 17 October 1941 the IT reported on the opening of the new Sheriff Street drawbridge, which had cost £18,000; it was a structure unique of its kind in these islands.” canalsofdublin.com/royal-canal-interactive-walk/sheriff-s...

So. I'm in Safeway today, and I overhear some kid in the snack aisle (where I'm headed for -- oddly enough -- snacks) dissing some treat on the basis of its ingredients.
"... lard, and salt!" I hear. "That's, like... the most American snack you could possibly have!"
I headed up to listen in a little more closely, and when I come around the corner I'm confronted by an Amish kid -- I swear to god! Hat, black suit and all! Okay, so he's not actually Amish, but he looks it. At this point, I start to curse myself for not having my camera handy: the kid looks like a serious joker. He's about six-one, bean-pole thin, and practically hopping from foot to foot as he goes on excitedly with this tirade against snack food (he's clutching Bugles now as he rants to his friend), and of course he's in this Amish get-up, and I really want to take his picture for one of the 52's I wanted to do in my 365÷52 Photo Project -- the now-abandoned idea of "52 Strangers."
But as I'm approaching, I realise he might not entirely qualify as "a stranger" since the chick he's talking to is a friend and former student, Nina. So I come over and chat, and Nina introduces me to her Amish friend Matt (who's not actually Amish), and I ask what snack he was going on about.
Matt reaches to the shelf and lifts up a bag of Old Dutch Bac'n Puffs. "Look at this! Read the ingredients --"
"Pork rinds, lard --"
"-- lard and salt!"
"Well, junk food doesn't really deserve the bad rap it gets," I start, remembering one of my favourite films...
_______
Yeah, I know, you all would rather have a picture of Matt the Amish Kid. Well so would I. I'm sorry the "52 Strangers" idea just isn't panning out. I will still take part in the "100 Strangers" group, just not as a part of my 365 this year.

By the way, if you've never seen The Sure Thing, you really ought to. It features a young Tim Robbins in one of his first movie roles -- in the pork rinds scene, oddly enough!
He plays Gary Cooper -- but not the Gary Cooper who's dead.

You can see a fake roof which was used.
Now I know how Howard Carter felt when he walked into King Tut's tomb and discovered one of the greatest archeological finds ever.
Here, in Galesburg,IL, this recently uncovered ghost signs for Henry George/Bull Durham cigars/tobacco shows magnificent detail, brilliant colors, and a peek into advertising not seen in probably 100 years. This sign was painted by a company based out of Chicago,IL (Thomas Cusack Signs) and their logo is partially visible in the lower left corner below the bearded gentleman.
Let's hope whoever owns the property will do what they can to preserve this classic sign.
I am familiar with Mount Jerome Cemetery as I lived beside its outer wall for two years (1981/82) and two of my grandparents are buried in there.
I cannot understand why my grandparents chose to be buried in Mount Jerome as it was, at the time, a depressing place relative to other locations that they could have chosen. In fact, as my grandfather was involved in the 1916 rising it is surprising that he was not buried in Glasnevin.
After my grandmother's funeral a very old uncle of mine described the graveyard as "an excellent advertisement for cremation" (back then Irish Catholics did not consider cremation an option). It is therefore somewhat ironic that as the result of the opening of a Crematorium in 2000 revenues have recovered and the Cemetery has undergone a complete reversal of fortune.
When I lived in the area the graves were often vandalised and at night a group of children would steal flowers from the graves in order to re-sell them the next day.
As Mount Jerome was established during the Victorian era, the monuments featured in some of my photographs are a materialistic expression of the success of the Victorian middle classes from that period.
Without doubt, Mount Jerome Cemetery the finest collections of Victorian memorials, tombs, vaults and crypts in Ireland.
Due to the declining burial numbers in the 1970's, the condition of the Cemetery began to deteriorate as revenues fell. In 1984 it was put into voluntary liquidation. By the late 1990's, it had fallen into a serious state of neglect with large swaths of the cemetery covered in overgrowth.
