This is a photograph from the second running of the newly situated Irish 3/4 Marathon (formerly the Athlone 3/4) which was held in Longwood, Enfield, Co. Meath, Ireland on Sunday 8th of October 2017 at 10:00. The event is positioned perfectly in the calendar as a key training race before the Dublin City Marathon at the end of the month. This year was the second year that the event was held in Longwood, Co. Meath which is now well known for its hosting of the Longwood 10KM/5KM annual races and a host venue for East of Ireland Marathon series marathons on a bi-annual basis. The race started and finished at Longwood GAA club just outside the village of Longwood. It followed an anti-clockwise course around the beautiful picturesque countryside of south Meath. The course went through the townlands of Longwood, Castlerickard, Killyon, Hill-of-Down, Anneville and Ashfield Clonard, Blackshare, Stoneyford and back to Longwood. The river Boyne and Blackwater were crossed as was the Royal Canal and the Dublin-Sligo Railway line at Hill-of-Down. Overall this was a very different course to the previous years in Athlone. The overall elevation of the course works out at 3/4 of the total elevation of the Dublin Marathon course. What most stood out about today's race was the course and how the countryside around it looked on a beautiful almost perfect Autumn morning. There was a large local effort with stewarding and many local people watched from their gardens as the race passed by. The organisation of the race was first class with every detail taken care of from the start until the finish. There was some rain showers from about 13:00 onwards but these soon passed.
There is a large set of photographs from today's race - taken at the start in Longwood village and the 25KM mark outside near our home.

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
Sailing, without capsizing, on the half wind sailing course, with machines, is called: Spailing / Windsurfing. Spailing is a mix between kite surfing and wind surfing. The wing is positioned as a kite, while the control over the wing is like the wind surfer. Wind - and kite surfers ride the waves parallel with the pipelines, respectively parallel with crests of the waves.
The, at the time state of the art, Philips' "Let's make things better" crashed and broke in half. It hit a wave and broke in half.
My question to you is: what is the reason in the first place that sailing ships hit waves head on? Or, by giving the answer indirectly: why do wind - and kite surfers never penetrate waves head on, if they do not want to, where as sailing boats have to?
Wind and kite surfers ride the waves, and when a wave is hit head on, just before the jump, they use the wave as a ramp, to kick start the flying!
Sailing boats have to get some where. The dogma to be broken, because, when we do not have to go some where, we do not have to enter the waves, at all!
It is not possible for a sailing ship to race in the half wind course in high seas, with, automatically, massive waves. Waves are headed, every time, until the storm is over. Wind surfers are never eaten by a wave, because he / she can even sail from the half winds course to the low course. When sailing boats do this, they capsize, and worse, the will be catapulted. Sailing is dangerous, wind surfing is relatively safe, because of the higher speed with respect to the wave motion.
Later on, I will call the ocean, in high winds, "freeways" for the wind surfers, because wind surfers ride the waves, so possible parallel with the waves, and go only over a wave, when the crest is not broken. Wind surfers can choose, sailing boats not.
The problem with sailing boats is the capsizing. This is why sailing crafts can not sail on the half wind course in high seas and this is why sailing boats can not sail parallel with waves.
The purpose of wind surfing is making speed. The purpose of Spailing is making speed, to drive turbines. If the sea says: "this is your course", then we listen. The sea gives us the hills, for the Spailboats to ride. No use in not listening to the sea, because penetrating waves is dangerous on open seas with high winds.
Where sailing was to go some where, there is sailing now for the fun.
There where wind surfing was just for fun, there is wind surfing now for the production of all the energy needed in the world.
In other words, it is time to say goodbye to sailing, and to say hello to Spailing.
To start: now we have motors in ships, and motors out do sails, since 1800 AD. So, no need to sail anymore. Sailing around the world is for fun and for prestige. Sailing in regatta's is also for the fun.
Wind surfing was invented for fun, but turned out to be needed, for the usage of even high winds too; for the production of energy.
For the purpose of gaining energy on sea, we do not ever need to penetrate a wave. For gaining energy, we need to wind surf.
Getting no where is to way to go, for speed, and for energy.
The future science should be busy with wind surfing in stead of making toys for the rich.
You, the reader, must be aware of a problem in this reformation. The scientists, going over the wings, are sailors their selves! After a life time of working, in where one of them was even going to space, the scientists are happy with sailing in their free time. Only by showing up, the top scientists steel the show. My nepwew was flattered, to stand only next to one of them. This is to give you an idea of how the scene is build up, during regatta's. I said to my nephew: "You are one of the very best sailors in the world - he is multiple world champion, you know -, and the one to be flattered in this particular scene, for standing next to you, should have been the scientist; if he only knew his way really around in the sailing world".
So, do you think that those scientists will leave that glamorous sailing scene? High, an dry, with every thing to loose? I guess we need a revolution to get rid of the sailors, to make way for Spailing.
A wind surfer is low life. We have to deal with cavitation, something sailors never heard of! This says all about the absolute speed of both. Sailing is competing with eachother, wind surfing is out off this world, until now. No rules. High speed.

on the hill overlooking karnak.
i took this shot surreptitiously because of my interaction with the guy 10 minutes earlier. the officer spotted me climbing on rocks to get a shot of the ruins from above and called out to me. he waved me over to the hill where he stood. i walked over to the point where it said "do not enter" in several different languages, but he kept waving me forward towards him. so i loved forward and he told me this was a good spot for a photo of the ruins. i pointed to the "no photos" sign and he told me not to worry about it.
as i lifted my camera, another officer came running towards me yelling that i wasn't allowed to be there and that i couldn't take photos from there. i turned towards my officer, but he was acting like he just ran over to me to tell me that i wasn't allowed there. so i climbed back down. the second officer left, and the first one started calling me over again. i guess he didn't want to give up his baksheesh so easily.
In India, roads have come to occupy a dominant position in the transportation system of the country. Rural roads infrastructure is critical to socio-economic development. The total road network in India today stands at 3.4 million km of which 2.8 million km comprises low volume rural roads. This includes roads constructed and upgraded under the Government of India’s flagship Prime Minister’s Gram Sadak Yojana (PMGSY) programme. Rural roads comprise over 80 per cent of the road network and their being kept in serviceable condition is crucial to the agricultural growth and livelihood of millions in rural areas including all weather connectivity to social facilities such as schools, health and market centres.

Savings group
---
In the Teso region of Uganda, Cordaid and partner organization SOCADIDO support female farmers who struggle to maintain their livelihood because of climate change, land depletion or a lack of tools and agricultural knowledge. Cordaid and SOCADIDO provide seeds, tools, technology and training.
The program started in August 2017 and has been implemented in 9 sub-counties in Teso and supports 9000 farmers in total. The main objectives are threefold: increase food production, reduce post-harvest losses and improve access to finance for the farmers.
Each participating farmer received 2 kilograms of seeds, mainly black-eyed peas, corn and vegetables like cassava and potato, which they plant in a plot of land of about one acre.
All 9000 participating farmers are put into groups of 30. The 300 farming groups are trained on harvest loss reduction, how to organize savings and credit and improve economic activities.
Each sub-county also has a marketing association. That is where the farmers collect their produce reserved for the market after they put aside all they need for their own consumption. The farmers get paid per kilogram of product sold. The association connects the sellers and buyers.
"The problem was that they had a poor bargaining position and often had to sell their products for a bad price", says Tom Edul, Program Coordinator for the Female Farmers Deserve Better program. "As a group, the farmers are much stronger and better equipped to improve their income."
Another vital factor in raising the value of their products is the possibility to save the harvests for a longer time. In some cases, the time of year greatly determines the price of the products. By providing the farmers with special bags, called PICS bags, fruits and vegetables can be saved for months. Now they can wait for the right time to sell and get a much better price.
The successful project is about to end in a few months, but SOCADIDO is eager to extend and expand. Edul: "We really want to continue. The results are great, and we have really made a difference in the lives of these farmers. Our methods of distributing PICS bags, providing tarpaulins for drying the harvest, which increases the quality of the produce, and the implementation of irrigation systems, are unique in this region. The farmers truly appreciate our efforts and they now have the confidence and courage to sell their products on the markets for a reasonable price. They can sustain themselves and even grow their businesses."

The Marygate Water (or Landing) Tower, on the banks of the Ouse at the foot of Marygate in York.
The tower, thought to have been built between 1318-24 and originally two storeys high, is a relic of the walls protecting the former St Mary's Abbey, a Benedictine monastery established in 1088. Scarborough Bridge, which carries the York-Malton-Scarborough rail link across the river, can be seen to the left.
