Cartoon by A(lexander) S(tuart) Boyd for Punch, 1896.
AS Boyd (1854-1930) is one of the minor but still excellent artists of the 1890s. In his work can be seen the influence of the seminal magazine "The Graphic".

This is a photograph from the 13th annual running of the Tom Brennan Memorial 5KM Road Race and Fun Run which was held on Furze Road, Phoenix Park, Chapelizod, Dublin, Ireland on New Year's Day Monday 1st January 2018 at 12:00. The race route is a two loop course which starts and finishes on the Furze Road in the middle of the Phoenix Park. Participants follow a clockwise, right-handed, looped route around Furze Road, Ordnance Survey and Chesterfield Avenue. The loop course is also another difference of this race from traditional 5KM road racing. The weather on New Year's Day in the Phoenix Park is always unpredictable and today was no different. A particularly strong headwind into the faces of participants along Furze road (between 2KM and 3KM) made this particular section tough going for everyone. There was also a particularly cold icy feel in the air. However several hundred runners, joggers and walkers shook off the effects of Christmas celebrations to take part. The route itself is flat without any noticeable undulations. This year's race had one of the biggest field of participants in its long and well established history.
The race is organised and promoted by the local athletics club Liffey Valley Athletic Club who are based in Islandbridge, Dublin 8 and have a catchment area around this part of Dublin city. The race itself commemorates the memory and contribution of former club member Tom Brennan who won the National Cross Country Championships in 1975 in UCD Belfield at the age of 24 years. A special commemorative perpetual trophy is presented to the winner of the race every year. The race is also of particular interest to those runners, joggers and walkers who are not necessarily involved in the competitive side of road racing. Annually the race is the first of a series of races in Dublin city which make up the Lord Mayor’s 5 Alive Challenge. This initiative by Dublin City Council is now in its sixth year and several hundred runners, joggers and walkers volunteer to take part in five of Dublin’s most popular road races. Dublin City Council makes an open call for people to register to be a part of the programme in autumn every year. The Liffey Valley Club and many other volunteers work hard to make this a very successful event. Undertaking a road race event in any location is a challenging task. However the Phoenix Park presents a unique challenge in terms of traffic flow around this part of Dublin and general logistics. Despite this these efforst by the host club are greatly appreciated as is evident by the turn out every year. It provides a splendid opening of the New Year for runners of all abilities. It is also a fitting 'official' start to the new calendar year of road racing in the Dublin and North Leinster region.

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
The swans are quite friendly in North Carolina.
To be honest, I don't know the difference between a goose and a swan. Can someone clue me in.

Iceland Gull 1st-winter &
Glaucous Gull 2nd.cal.yr.
[order] Charadriiformes | [family] Laridae | [latin] Larus glaucoides | [UK] Iceland Gull | [FR] Goéland arctique | [DE] Polarmöwe | [ES] Gaviota groenlandesa | [IT] Gabbiano islandico | [NL] Kleine Burgemeester
Measurements
spanwidth min.: 123 cm
spanwidth max.: 139 cm
size min.: 52 cm
size max.: 60 cm
Breeding
incubation min.: 28 days
incubation max.: 30 days
fledging min.: 40 days
fledging max.: 45 days
broods 1
eggs min.: 2
eggs max.: 3
Physical characteristics
Size range falls short of Glaucous Gull but overlaps with Herring Gull. Fairly large, long-winged, and rather slender gull, with plumage colours and pattern as Glaucous Gull but with structural differences distinct in (1) shorter, less heavy, and more pointed bill, combining with more domed crown and rounded nape to give gentle outline and expression to head and face, (2) more oval-shaped body, (3) longer and narrower wings, particularly obvious when folded and then extending well past tail, and (4) shorter legs. Eye appears darker and larger than in Glaucous Gull. Bill less than half length of head, lacking stoutness or marked hook but coloured as Glaucous Gull. Legs leaden-pink, colder in tone than Glaucous Gull. Juvenile and first winter have more uniform appearance than Glaucous Gull, due to finer and more even pattern of markings and less-bold contrasting bill colour.
Habitat
Breeds on low- to high-arctic rocky coasts, mainly in fjords and sounds well in from open ocean; occasionally on low skerries, detached stacks or low cliffs, but normally only on steep high cliffs at c. 100-200 m. After breeding season disperses, but mostly remains in similar habitat throughout year though some become accustomed to foraging near man, even in harbours; rarely at coast in western Greenland in summer.
Other details
Larus glaucoides breeds in southern and western Greenland, which is now thought to constitute >50% of its global breeding range. Its European breeding population is relatively small (<100,000 pairs), but probably remained stable during 1970-1990 and 1990-2000.
Feeding
Mainly fish, but also carrion, offal, and eggs and young of other birds, especially Kittiwake. Takes food from surface and by plunge-diving in shallow inshore waters rather in manner of tern; in autumn feeds additionally on berries.
Conservation
This species has a large range, with an estimated global Extent of Occurrence of 100,000-1,000,000 km². It has a large global population estimated to be 190,000-400,000 individuals (Wetlands International 2002). Global population trends have not been quantified, but the species is not believed to approach the thresholds for the population decline criterion of the IUCN Red List (i.e. declining more than 30% in ten years or three generations). For these reasons, the species is evaluated as Least Concern. [conservation status from birdlife.org]
Breeding
In western Greenland, eggs laid mid-May to mid-June. Nest site is generally a flat ledge on sea-cliff, or on rocks among thick vegetation on sloping scree. On Novaya Zemlya, one nest c. 2 m from cliff-top and 16-18 m above water. Nest is as of Glaucous Gull but smaller, lined with grass and moss. Clutch is 2-3 incubation lasts for 28-30 days. Fledging from 40 to 45 days.
Migration
Migratory to dispersive in different regions. Movements of Novaya Zemlya population unknown. Nominate glaucoides (breeds Greenland) resident to dispersive (principally immatures) in western Greenland, moving north (some reaching high Arctic) and south along coast, irregularly to Canadian and north-east USA coasts and north-east Atlantic; in eastern Greenland migratory, probably wintering in northern Iceland and regular visitor to north-west Europe, some young birds remaining through summer. Race kumlieni (breeds Arctic Canada) winters on Atlantic coast of North America from Labrador to Long Island and occasionally further south, with small numbers to Great Lakes and Hudson Bay; strays to Iceland and Faeroes, more recently to Britain and Ireland. Race thayeri (breeds arctic Canada and north-west Greenland) winters on west coast of North America south to California, a few also mid-west and on Atlantic coast as far south as Florida and Texas. In western Greenland moves to coast from breeding fjords in August, dispersing widely September-November. Emigration from eastern Greenland continues into November; adults return to breeding areas late April and early May but immatures remain in flocks on coast during summer.

Glaucous Gull 2nd.cal.yr.
[order] Charadriiformes | [family] Laridae | [latin] Larus hyperboreus | [UK] Glaucous Gull | [FR] Goéland bourgmestre | [DE] Eismöwe | [ES] Gaviota hiperbórea | [IT] Gabbiano glauco | [NL] Grote Burgemeester

Breeding
incubation min.: 27 days
incubation max.: 28 days
fledging min.: 45 days
fledging max.: 50 days
broods 1
eggs min.: 2
eggs max.: 3
Physical characteristics
An inhabitant of the far north, the Glaucous Gull is a large, pale gull with a large bill. The adult appears very white. Its back and wings are light gray, and the wingtips are white, with no black on the wing. The tail is white. The legs are pink, and the eyes are yellow. The bill is yellow with a red spot. In the non-breeding season, the adult's head is streaked with brown. Birds in breeding plumage have pure white heads and fleshy yellow eye-rings. The Glaucous Gull may be confused with the Glaucous-winged Gull, with which it hybridizes. Like most of the large gulls, this is a '4-year gull,' meaning that it takes 4 years to reach adult plumage, with a different sub-adult plumage each year. Juveniles are mostly white with buff markings. The first-year plumage is distinguished from that of a Glaucous-winged Gull by the distinctly bi-colored bill with a dark tip and a flesh-pink base.
The Glaucous Gull usually associates with flocks of other roosting and feeding gulls such as Glaucous-winged and Herring Gulls. A predator and a scavenger, the Glaucous Gull will steal food from other birds. It forages while flying, walking, or swimming. In flight, it picks items off the surface of the water and may catch smaller birds.
Habitat
The Glaucous Gull is the only large gull common in the high Arctic. It inhabits cold, coastal bays, estuaries, and offshore areas. In winter, Glaucous Gulls have been found on large inland lakes. Nesting habitat is mainly cliff ledges, islands, and beaches. Foraging habitat includes garbage dumps, fish-processing plants, harbors, mud flats, sewage lagoons, flooded fields, and fish-spawning areas.
Other details
Larus hyperboreus breeds in Greenland, Svalbard, Iceland and arctic Russia, with Europe accounting for less than a quarter of its global breeding range. Its European breeding population is relatively small (<140,000 pairs), but was stable between 1970- 1990. Although the trends of the populations in Iceland and Russia during 1990- 2000 were unknown, the species was stable in Svalbard and the stronghold Greenland, and hence probably remained stable overall.
In the New World Glaucous Gulls are widespread and common in the far north where they are protected from human activities due to the remoteness. High Arctic habitats are slow to rebound from degradation, and these areas should be protected to maintain the population at its current healthy level. Populations in the eastern Bering Sea hybridize with Glaucous-winged Gulls.
Feeding
Glaucous Gulls eat fish and other aquatic creatures, as well as insects, birds, eggs, berries, carrion, and garbage.
Breeding
Pairs nest in colonies or alone on cliff tops, flat, rocky ground, ice, or snow. Both adults help build the nest, which is a mound of vegetation and miscellaneous debris, depressed in the center. Both incubate the 3 eggs for about 4 weeks. Both parents feed the downy chicks for close to 2 months. The young leave the nest on foot a few days after hatching, and they stay close to the nest until their first flight at 45-50 days, soon after which they become independent.
Migration
Migratory, partially migratory, or dispersive in different regions. East Greenland population migratory, believed to winter in Iceland. Resident in Iceland, where numbers much increased in winter. In Eurasia, winters as far north as coasts remain ice free, or refuse available. Present then, though in reduced numbers, on Jan Mayen and Spitsbergen; occurs (immatures predominating) on southern Novaya Zemlya except in winters of heavy ice formation; winters also in White Sea and on coasts of Murmansk and northern Norway. An abundant winter visitor to Faeroes, and reaches Britain and Ireland annually in variable numbers, usually rather small though in severe winters it can become almost common, especially in Scotland where a few aggregations of 80 or more have occurred. Timing of arrival in Britain also variable, according to weather conditions further north, and departures linked to late winter and early spring temperatures; few present before mid-October, and arrivals can continue into December. In mild seasons, departures begin late January or early February, though can be extended to mid-April.

Approximately 130 Soldiers, Family Members, Retirees and Civilian volunteers joined about 60 Korean volunteers Saturday morning for the first-ever Make A Difference Day in Korea at Deog Dong San park in Pyeongtaek.
USA Weekend Magazine created Make a Difference Day about 18 years ago as national day of helping others -- a celebration of neighbors helping neighbors, according to their website, www.usaweekend.com/diffday/aboutmadd.html. Make A Difference Day is an annual event that takes place on the fourth Saturday of every October.
The volunteers spent the morning picking up trash, cleaning out storm drains and ditches and performing beautification projects around the park.
Following the work session, volunteers enjoyed lunch and a traditional Korean dance performance by students from Shin Han High School.

After a restful weekend, the team was re-energized and looking forward to a full day of patients today. Our first case was a baby, 7 months old, with a significant cleft palate and lip running all the way to his nostril. This little baby was adorable - a love bug. As we talked to him and his mom, he kept laughing and smiling. What a sweetie! His gum line was protruding out of his mouth, almost like a little snout, and if he'd had his teeth in they would have been sticking straight out. As a mother, it must be terribly hard to have such an adorable baby whose face may repel others. We could tell he was such a sweet and loving child.
So very nearly a perfect mirror image.

Here in Wisconsin we have a large area that is forest, but these same trees are found in the city as well! This particular tree is found behind my apartment complex. Although it may be hard to tell the difference between Conifers or "Christmas Trees", the tree pictured is a Fir.
More than 100 Soldiers, Civilians, Retirees and Family Members joined Korean volunteers today for the second annual Humphreys Make a Difference Day at Deog Dong San Park in Pyeongtaek.
The volunteers spent the morning picking up trash, raking leaves and conducting beautification projects under the watchful eyes of the Pyeongtaek City Parks and Greenbelt Management Division.
Following the work the volunteers enjoyed lunch, a performance by the ShinHan Middle School traditional dance team and a post-work awards ceremony.

Percent difference calculator equals the absolute value of the change in value, divided by the average of the 2 numbers, all multiplied by 100. We then append the percent sign, %.Percent increase and percent decrease are measures of percent change, which is the extent to which a variable gains or loses intensity, magnitude, extent, or value. The figures are arrived at by comparing the initial (or before) and final (or after) quantities according to a specific formula. It is assumed that both the initial and the final quantities are positive (larger than 0).
