I must say, I found this church VERY interesting! Among its other points of interest were the tomb of Robert Dudley, Earl of Leicester and his notorious second wife Lettice Knollys, as well as memorials to beloved servants of the Earls of Warwick.

Mounted a Simmons Prosport 4 x12 on Maria's EBR. Seems to work pretty well...... Maria fired this group at 100 yards using Wolf Performance 62 grain hollow points from the prone position.

Tram Stop at corner of Victoria and Elizabeth Streets. Seen at tram junctions in Melbourne - a 3 aspect signal without target board indicating whether points are set to go straight ahead or turn.

 

This is an older AWA signal. Modern ones use LED signals. The angled left bar indicates the points are set for the left turn. Straight ahead movement is indicated by the vertical bar below.

Steve the water frog is the star attraction of the refurbished aquarium at PWL Lloydminster. The frog is usually tricky to spot in the tank, and GM Allyn Andrews says she was lucky to get this photo of him.

This is a photograph from the Cork City Marathon 2014 which was held in Cork City, Ireland on Bank Holiday Monday June 2nd 2014 starting at 09:00. There are three different events: The full marathon, The Half Marathon, and a full relay of the full marathon course.

 

Electronic Timing and Event Management and Registration was provided by Precision Timing - their website will have results of the race (www.precisiontiming.net/results.aspx)

 

We have a set of photographs from today's races at various points. Firstly at the 1 mile mark and then along the Mardyke (around 3:15 - 3:30 marathon finish time) and finally at the finish around 4:50 to 5:00 marathon finish time. The full set is available at www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/sets/72157644970559902/

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

Green plant shot taken from our house garden..

This is what I did last weekend. After about a year I finally have a camera person / editor working with me to tape my Scene Points shows. They're like 3-5 minute shows that I put on my website, basically making fun of bands and their videos.

 

Here's the latest episode.

 

Finally, as seen in this photo, we have SPACE to shoot, rather than at someones apartment everytime. So this is nice. I was waiting for my guy Jonathan (whom I love!) to get the lighting correct and stuff.

1500 Marilla - 1978

 

This Modern civic structure is another signature building of Dallas. It was designed by I.M. Pei and like many of his buildings, features angular forms. The City Hall in plan is a long rectangular building, but in elevation, it reveals its true shape. It is essentially a right triangle turned with one of its points down. The first floor is relatively small in plan with each floor above being larger than the one below. The north wall slopes outward, with large areas of glass. The south facade also has a considerable amount of glass with the east and west sides of the building being mostly concrete.

CAMP ZAMA, Japan - Scores of Soldiers, family members and Department of Defense civilians from the Camp Zama community donned decorative costumes for the second annual SHA Loop Run Oct. 31, 2015.

 

The 1.9 mile race featured a colorful cast of characters ranging from superheroes and video game characters to reptiles and breakfast menu items.

 

Phillip Curiel with the U.S. Army Medical Department (Japan) took home first place after crossing the finishing line in 9 minutes, 37 seconds. Army Spc. Sean Peters (who, whether by design or coincidence, wore red and yellow costume made famous by DC Comics' "The Flash"), an intelligence analyst with the 441st Military Intelligence Battalion, came in second place at 10:22. Dressed as a Jedi Knight and wielding a plastic light saber, Army 2nd Lt. Cody Hartmann, executive officer, 441st MI Battalion, followed close behind Peters with a third place finish time of 10:31.

 

Army spouse Yoko Stephens was the first woman to cross the finish line at 11:52.

 

Camp Zama's Community Bank sponsorship ensured the winners received their well-deserved trophies.

 

The 441st MI BN also accrued more than 50 points toward U.S. Army Japan's annual Commanders' Cup challenge.

It's not uncommon to see "custom" turbocharger systems on the market featuring generic off the shelf silicon hoses. To engineer truly custom silicon hoses, as is the case with an APR Stage III Turbocharger System, months of planning and engineer time must take place.

 

APR's Engineers use a Fero Arm to plot points of contact within the engine bay and mounting surfaces, such as the turbocharger, to help aid in design and fitment through CAD Software. This gives the engineers a work space for designing parts without worry of contacting components in the engine bay.

 

Fero Arm Mapping a Turbo

Once the engine bay and attached items are mapped, the engineers are able to begin designing parts on the computer. We currently use the latest version of Pro Engineer, which is now called creo. It's an extremely powerful software suite that gives our Engineers the flexibility they need to design and test many components in a simulated environment, long before they ever make a physical part.

 

Here's a fully designed Stage 3 Turbocharger System, long before any physical parts are produced. The images can be rotated, split apart, moved around, altered, etc.

Once the Engineers complete a design, it's sent to our Stereolithography (SLA) 3D printer to print out a physical part we can test in the engine bay. It's necessary to print out the design and test because some items in the engine bay are not static. Under load the engine will rock back and forth, so clearance must be confirmed before proceeding. Printing 3D parts also allows us to test parts on other makes and models around the world. Our UK facility and our partners in Australia test Right Hand Drive vehicles we do not see in the US.

The printer uses a laser to harden a liquid material into a useable part. In the example below, we are using the SLA to create a compressor housing for use on a TTRS Stage III Turbocharger System. The process is identical when creating silicon hoses for the Golf R Stage III Turbocharger System:

 

The Laser burns in the design, one tiny layer at a time:

a6.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc7/331027_1015033846...

 

When finished, the part is removed and sent over to an ultra violet chamber which hardens the piece:

a8.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/337398_1015033893...

 

The finished piece looks like this and can be fitted and tested in the car:

a2.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/322368_1015033893...

 

The same process takes place for nearly every component we design on the Stage III Turbocharger System. The parts are then installed and fitment is verified. Once engineering gives the green light, a cast mandrel is created and then machined in house to act as the mould for making the production parts. This is an extremely expensive process, which is why many kits use off the shelf, generic hosing, however quality and features cannot be matched using other methods. It's Performance Without Compromise.

 

APR manufactures all hoses in North America to ensure high levels of quality and workmanship. The hoses are then fit with custom hose barbs and spigots for all of the necessary OEM equipment to connect and many of these parts are designed and created in house on our Mazak CNC lathe. The lathe feeds bar stock from one end to automate the production process and runs round the clock with two shifts of operators operating almost 24/7.

Each hose is a wire reinforced, high quality, multi-pli silicon design. The hoses are very stiff so under boost and vacuum the hoses will not swell or collapse and restrict airflow like traditional hoses. If you're at Waterfest or H2O this year, stop by our booth and squeeze one of the hoses on display!

 

www.goapr.com/includes/img/products/20ts3_silicon.jpg

 

All of the correct OEM spigots and outlets for boost / vacuum reference lines are included in the OEM locations. OEM PCV and EVAP connections are properly in place with OEM style one-time-use crimp clamps holding securing each piece.

 

One often overlooked feature of the APR Stage III Silicon Hose Design is the use of stepped mounting surfaces for smooth transition from one piece to the other. Traditional hoses simply sit on top of the other mounting surfaces, which can disrupt airflow. The APR hose design is stepped so they mount flush, offering a truly custom and ideal design.

Action from a surprisingly rural Windsor Park as hosts Denton West bat against Flowery Field during a crucial fourth-versus-second late season derby in Division One A of the Great Manchester League. Denton West moved up a place to third, four points behind leaders Moorside, after chalking up a 30-run victory. With three games remaining, Denton West trail second-placed Glodwick only on net run rate. The top two are promoted to the Premier Division, from which Denton West were relegated in 2018.

 

Professional Semila Seyibokwe wrecked Flowery Field's hopes of reaching their target. The South African pacer took 7-59 to reduce the Hyde-based visitors to 72-7. Ben Mason (39) and Kieran Lawton (20) put on 43 for the eighth wicket. Lawton, to a rather soft catch, was the last man out as Flowery Field fell short. Alex Dolly contributed 20. Earlier, Denton West, opting to bat, slipped to 11-2 as pacer Mike Finan (3-49) struck early blows. Ebrahim Ginwalla (43) and Aaqib Uppal (33) advanced the score to 92 before the third wicket tumbled. The hosts wobbled again, losing four wickets for the addition of just 15 runs, before a strong finish, with Ben Lowndes (19) prominent, enabled them to post a decent total. Mike Burns finished with 4-38 and South African professional Kurtlyn Mannikam 3-20. Twins Jordan (Denton West) and Jamie (Flowery Field) Williams were on opposite sides. Jamie took a smart catch to dismiss his sibling for 10. Jordan is an England Disability international.

 

Cricket has been played at Windsor Park since 1880, when Reddish Cricket Club were formed. They merged in 1935 with Gorton Cricket Club (founded in 1848) to form Denton West Cricket Club. Gorton's ground was sold for redevelopment. Denton West's most famous product is former England and Lancashire pace bowler Brian Statham. As a teenager, Statham played for Denton West during the 1947 and 1948 seasons. Statham's widow later presented Denton West with one of her late husband's England caps.

 

Match statistics

 

Denton West versus Flowery Field

 

Greater Manchester League, Division One A (50 over match, 12.30pm start)

 

Admission: free. Programme: none. Attendance: 115. Denton West won the toss and elected to bat. Denton West 180 off 47.4 overs (Ebrahim Ginwalla 43, Aaqib Uppal 33, Mike Burns 4-38, Kurtlyn Mannikam 3-20, Mike Finan 3-49) 5pts beat by 30 runs Flowery Field 150 off 47.2 overs (Semila Seyibokwe 7-59, Ben Mason 30, Alex Dolly 20, Kieran Lawton 20) 0pts.

Unusual apartments, at the north end, are a striking feature of Middlesbrough Cricket Club's Acklam Park ground. The North Yorkshire & South Durham ECB Premier League XI are warming up ahead of a T20 Challenge match with Yorkshire Vikings. Yorkshire's first visit to the venue since 1996 attracted a bumper crowd.

 

The Vikings made a losing return to Teesside as the home team won by four wickets with eight balls to spare. Two club professionals, Seaton Carew's Usman Arshad and Great Ayton's Pitigala Jeewantha, were the NYSD heroes. Both hit half-centuries in adding 95 for the fourth wicket after the NYSD had slipped to 44-3. Beating Yorkshire saw the NYSD follow up their even more emphatic victory, at Hartlepool earlier in the season, over a Durham Jets XI.

 

When Yorkshire last played a first class game at Acklam Park, 22 years ago, Darren Gough and Michael Vaughan featured in a County Championship victory over Sussex. Yorkshire then decided to play the bulk of their home matches at Headingley, Leeds, with North Marine Road, Scarborough, the sole out-ground.

 

Acklam Park opened in 1929. Middlesbrough Rugby Union Club have played at the ground since its opening, Middlesbrough Cricket Club since 1932, when the latter became joint owners of the site. The rugby union club paid £1,200 in 1928 for what was then a 12-acre field. The Acklam Park name was adopted in 1930. A new clubhouse, opened in 2008, transformed the ground's off-the-field facilities. It features changing rooms, a bar, a cafe, a gym, a function room and a lounge.

 

Match statistics:

 

Admission: £3. Programme: four pages (w/a). Attendance: 425. Yorkshire Vikings XI won the toss and elected to bat. Yorkshire Vikings XI 163-8 off 20 overs (Matthew Waite 56, Jack Leaning 30, Matthew Fisher 25) lost by four wickets to NYSD ECB Premier League XI 174-6 off 18.4 overs (Usman Arshad 56 not out, Pitigala Jeewantha 52). Umpires: Shaun McEvoy (Hartlepool) and Kevin Moss (Stockton-on-Tees).

5 Second exposure. Converted to sepia.

 

Initial achieved through using a small penlight, and quickly making a backward D, the way I sign it. The initial took about 4 seconds, and then I held the pose for a further second. This made my arm look static.

Waited for the right moment for this shot, as the ball was going towards the hoop i started shooting in high speed continuous to get the right shot.
