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

   

Los mismos colores en la ropa pero comportamientos muy diferentes ante la vida.

Concurring with Obama's request for new methods of interrogation of suspects complying with those outlined in the official U.S. Army Field Manual future

interrogations will be conducted using "best practices" of the latest scientific research. They will provide "full transparency" and also be done in FBI secret locations.

  

This decision placing the FBI in charge of the interrogations of terrorist suspects is a major reform in U.S. national security policy because previously everything was

handled by the CIA.

 

The terrorists of course won't see any real difference between the CIA and FBI interrogation methods when they are on the "hot seat".

Proud and courageous, Angie is the first female promoted to Section Commander. She works on clearing landmines in Zimbabwe, through the UK aid supported charity, The HALO Trust. Every three weeks she takes the bus to go home and see her four children, who are looked after by her grandmother whilst she is working. Although it takes her three hours, it makes her happy to see them.

 

Although it receives little publicity, Zimbabwe is one of the most highly mine-impacted countries in the world. There are very dense, unfenced minefields close to houses, schools and clinics and access to agricultural land is denied to small scale farmers.

 

UK aid is supporting The HALO Trust, a British charity, to carry out demining work in the the country.

Since flickr updated/was down for a bit ... and because I upload at least one per day ... here are several photos to look at ... :)

 

Yeah I have heard this phrase too. If only people thought about what they say, or write it out perhaps. That might bring them to the realization that ENGLISH SUCKS.

 

This isn't the point of my picture though. The boy on the right in my brother. The "boy" on the left is the brother of a very good friend of mine. As you might have noticed, they have quite different views of the world. I tried once to bend down and walk through a crowd... being short would suck. I am 6'2''. I don't understand what it's like to have to jump up or use a stool to reach the top of my cupboards, or have to walk around a wire fence rather than over. I do know how hard it is fit into a smart car, and try to sew your torn shoe together with fingers as big as a brat...

 

Everyone is different. What if we were the same? Would there be anger? Would there be awkward moments.....amazement, rich/poor.....or love?

 

I have been in a philosophical mood lately...most of that due to the new Blue October CD that was released. Music can make me feel any emotion, even the ones I try to forget.

 

Don't let the differences between people be the reason you hate or bully. Make it be the reason you love and learn. That just sounds like a better use of time doesn't it?

LORRAGH ABBEY.

THIS is the Convent of Saint Peter the Martyr, a Priory of the Dominican Order, and is not an Abbey at all!

 

PRIORY, FRIARY, MONASTERY and ABBEY....

 

A question that arises quite often is; what is the difference between a priory and a friary?

 

PRIORY is the name given to houses that have a Prior as their chief official and a FRIARY is a house where any mendicant order, Franciscan, Dominican, Carmelite or Augustinian lives. The superior of a Franciscan community is referred to as the Guardian so Franciscan Friaries are never Priories. Dominican and Augustinian friaries are referred to as Priories. Carmelite communities are often known locally as Monasteries but they are priories.

 

Abbeys are a different thing altogether and even though most of the ruins are referred to as ABBEY such as Portumna Abbey, Sligo Abbey or Lorrha Abbey etc., they are in fact Priories and, even more specifically, they are correctly called CONVENTS.

 

Priory and Friary are popular names rather than official ones. Abbey is incorrectly given to most religious ruins in Ireland. This is wrong! Most of the ruins are of friaries and many of these friaries would have also been priories but never abbeys or monasteries. The monastic ruins of Jerpoint, Gowran and Dunbrody were all Abbeys because they were monastic houses with an Abbot at their head. Portumna started as an Abbey of the Cistercian Order and then transferred to being a Convent of the Dominican Order. Sligo, Roscommon, Mullingar and many other Abbeys were Priories. Athenry Abbey is often referred to as the Dominican Priory – this latter term is more accurate than Athenry Abbey would be.

 

The life in a priory would be very different from the life in an abbey. Priories serve as bases from which the friars would move out and work where they were needed. Abbeys were monasteries and were independent societies within themselves. Monks have officially withdrawn from the world into a life of prayer. Apart from praying the monks grew their own food, spun their own wool, carved their own stone etc... friars depend on their work among the people and the donations they receive for that work. Hence the name mendicant for friars, a French word for beggars!

    

THIS abbey, which is situated in the barony of Lower Ormond, in the county Tipperary, and three miles from the Shannon where it empties itself into Lough Derg, was founded in 1269. According to the Book of Friars Preachers of Athenry it was founded by Walter de Burgh, earl of Ulster, whose son, Richard, the Red Earl, is supposed to have founded Carlingford Abbey.

 

In 1301, a provincial chapter was held here.

 

1552. June 2. Lease to John Hogan, clerk, late prior of Larrowe, in Ormond [barony of Lower Ormond], of the site of the priory of Canons of St. Augustine, in Ormond, etc., and the site of the monastery of friars of St. Dominick's Order in Larrowe, and land called Freres Rathe, with its tithes in the said town. To hold for twenty-one years, in full recompense of his pension [as abbot of a dissolved monastery], at the rent of 8 during lessee's life, and 13 2S. 8d. after his death. Plants, Edward VI.

 

In 1629, we find from the Provincial's records that there were two fathers there and one laybrother.

 

Dr. Burke, writing in 1756, says that the church and the greater portion of the conventual buildings were still erect. He adds that there were old people living in the locality who still remembered the provincial chapter of 1688, in the reign of James II., and testified that they saw about one hundred and fifty friars there in their white habits. Judging from the acts of that chapter, which are still extant and other evidence, there were not probably half that number present. At this chapter, public theses of philosophy and theology were defended, the rarity of which in Ireland, at that or any other period, brought together a great multitude of people.

 

In 1756, there were two fathers living there, and in 1767, only one,who was parish priest. The last of the fathers connected with this community, Father Michael V. Donoghoe, died between 1789 and 1793.

Het verschil tussen arm en rijk is groot aan de Bulgaarse kust, al valt het op deze foto nog enigszins mee. De huizen daarachter zijn nog niet helemaal af, maar er wonen al wel mensen in.

Today. Today marks the start of a new sub-series of project 365 that I am entitling "The Difference". This sub-series will contain pictures from the Lawrence University campus that were taken this past weekend. I visited the campus on assignment after some fellow Lawrentians discovered a few of my other Lawrence University shots.

 

I arrived in Appleton early Saturday afternoon, granted this time of day is not the best for light, the clouds were looking very nice. Upon arrival, I met with Sheree, Lawrence's director of communications, and the woman behind The Lawrence University Facebook Page. Sheree and I discussed everything Lawrence, and was hoping that I would be able to capture some of the stories behind Lawrence University and its campus via photograph. I have never been this photographically motivated! I was, after all, seeking to capture the "Lawrence Difference" through a means in which it has never before been captured - high dynamic range photography. For those of you that did not attend Lawrence, the "Lawrence Difference" is a tagline used very often on campus. Former Larry U president Richard Warch tries explaining it here. I worn you that I have not read his entire piece. I am still stuck in the first paragraph trying to figure out what "matriculation" means in this sentence (I don't see how women having their periods has anything to do with the University.) The "Lawrence Difference" to me is the reason I came here instead of the state school that all of my friends went to. So, for the next 14 days or so, I will bring you a new photo of Lawrence, and I hope to tell you a new story through each photo that I post. Enjoy!

I am getting quite tired of seeing people texture their weapons with external programs such as Photoshop and Gimp, and just overlaying a simple texture over their weapon.

There's so many things that are wrong with that, and it's just sad.

I've textured over my weapon with a simple wood texture, and on the left, I put about 30 minutes into just erasing things, and that's it. On the right, I put about 30 seconds into it just by repeating the texture across my weapon. People, if you are going to texture your weapon, borrow someone else's texture or put some time into it.

tl;dr: Bolts should't have textures.

Edited in Photoshop for the shitty texturing.
