Paul Gilbert, deputy manager for the Flight Programs and Partnerships Office at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama, speaks to the NASA Social group about the Marshall Center's contributions to Orion's first flight. The Orion spacecraft launched aboard a United Launch Alliance Delta IV heavy lift rocket on December 5. The Marshall Center designed and built the spacecraft adapter that connected Orion to the Delta IV rocket. NASA hosted a multi-center NASA Social, inviting social media users from across the United States to visit the various centers to learn about Orion's first flight.
This is a photograph from the first running of the Killyon 5KM Fun Run and Walk which was held at Moran's, Hill-of-Down, Killyon, Enfield, Co. Meath, Ireland on Sunday 22nd June 2014 at 11:00. The run was organised to raise funds for the Killyon National School Building Fund. This was a very well organised event. The whole Killyon/Hill-of-Down community were out in force helping with every aspect of the race organisation. Race Headquarters was Moran's Pub ("The Hill").
The race started on a local boreen about 1.5KM from the Finish Area. The run then proceeded on a clockwise direction over the Hill-of-Down to Langan's Cross. Taking a right here the run went to the next Canal bridge at Ballasport. The final 1.5KM were run on the beautiful bank of the Royal Canal which brought participants back up to Moran's and the finish line. Interestingly the race crossed the Canal twice and crossed over and under the Dublin Sligo Railway line. Hill-of-Down was once a station on this railway but closed in the 1960s. No trace of the station remains today.
Congratulations to everyone involved in the race and on it's first running this turned out as a brilliant success. The event will hopefully become an annual event.

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!

I posted a few photos showing workers from the council felling some big spruce trees at a walkway close to the railway in Västerhaninge last week. It turns out the trees were not sick at all, but they were in the way for the new water pipelines to Nynäshamn.

ok. what is important here is not the photo. I know, i know- flickr IS photos... but alas, i must explain to you the miracle that is the BLINKING BASS TRAILER FISH.
This truck has a fish on the ball trailer hitch. It's made so that it looks like the fish has bitten the hitch. Which, on it's own, is mildly amusing in a redneck-sort-of-way. But that's not all folks. Not by a mile.
When the truck brakes, the fish's tail flaps from left to right, and little red lights beam from where it's eyes would be. OMG. When the truck signals a turn, the fish flaps again and the eye corresponding to the direction of the turn blinks in time with the car's own blinker.
I promise, I am looking for a link or something... AH HA!
