It was important for the Romans to bury their dead properly otherwise they would return as ghosts to trouble the living. Tombstones were always carved with ‘Dis Manebus’ (DM) - to the souls of the departed. This shows the dead were remembered.
Romans would avoid places where people were murdered or horrible crimes took place because they were frightened of being attacked by the Lemures.

The Archibald Fountain, properly called the J. F. Archibald Memorial Fountain, widely regarded as the finest public fountain in Australia, is located in Hyde Park, in central Sydney, New South Wales.
It is named after J. F. Archibald, owner and editor of The Bulletin magazine, who bequeathed funds to have it built. Archibald specified that it must be designed by a French artist, both because of his great love of French culture and to commemorate the association of Australia and France in World War I. He wished Sydney to aspire to Parisian civic design and ornamentation. The artist chosen was François-Léon Sicard.
Sicard was one of the foremost sculptors of his day, a classically educated artist, whose inspiration was derived, at least in part, from his study of classical Greek and Roman art and literature. In submitting his proposal for the design of the sculptural groups, Sicard wrote: "Apollo represents the Arts (Beauty and Light). Apollo holds out his right arm as a sign of protection, and spreads his benefits over all Nature, whilst he holds the Lyre in his left hand. Apollo is the warmth which vivifies, giving life to all Nature. At the touch of his rays, men awake, trees and fields become green, the animals go out into the fields, and men go to work at dawn.
"The ancient Pliny adored the sun, symbol of Life. It is on this account that I wished this figure to be the chief one in the memorial.
"At Apollo's feet the star of day is indicated by a semicircle, of which the rays spread out in jets of light (the rising sun). The horses' heads represent the horses of Apollo's chariot. Out of their nostrils the water will fall into the first basin, to fall from there into the second, and run away into the large basin.
"The large basin is divided into three groups. One represents Diana, goddess of purity, of peaceful nights, symbol of charity; the ideal which watches over mortals - all that stands for poetry and harmony. The second group symbolises the good things of the earth - it is the young god of the fields and pastures, of the pleasure of the countryside. The third group represents sacrifice for the public good. Theseus, vanquisher of the Minotaur. The spirit triumphs over bestiality. Theseus delivers his country from the ransom which it had to pay to this monster. It is the sacrifice of himself for the good of humanity. Between these groups tortoises throw jets of water. The fountain is electrically illuminated and floodlighted at night.
"It depicts Apollo, representing beauty and the arts, on a central column holding out his right arm as a sign of protection over all nature. On the three plinths radiating from the central column there are figures representing Diana, the goddess of purity; a group representing the good things of the earth; Theseus slaying a Minotaur, representing the sacrifice for the good of humanity."
The fountain was unveiled on 14 March 1932
Hyde Park, the oldest public parkland in Australia, is a 16.2-hectare (40 acres) park in the central business district of Sydney, New South Wales.
Hyde Park is on the eastern side of the Sydney city centre. It is the southernmost of a chain of parkland that extends north to the shore of Sydney Harbour via The Domain and Sydney's Royal Botanic Gardens. Hyde Park is approximately rectangular in shape, being squared at the southern end and rounded at the northern end.
The centrepiece of Hyde Park is the Archibald Fountain. The fountain was designed by François-Léon Sicard and donated by J.F. Archibald in 1932 in honour of Australia's contribution to World War I in France. Also at the northern end are the Nagoya Gardens featuring a giant outdoor chess set and the entrance to the underground St James railway station.

Exeter Cathedral, properly known as the Cathedral Church of Saint Peter in Exeter, is an Anglican cathedral, and the seat of the Bishop of Exeter, in the city of Exeter, Devon, in South West England. The present building was complete by about 1400, and has several notable features, including an early set of misericords, an astronomical clock and the longest uninterrupted vaulted ceiling in England.
The founding of the cathedral at Exeter, dedicated to Saint Peter, dates from 1050, when the seat of the bishop of Devon and Cornwall was transferred from Crediton because of a fear of sea-raids. A Saxon minster already existing within the town (and dedicated to Saint Mary and Saint Peter) was used by Leofric as his seat, but services were often held out of doors, close to the site of the present cathedral building.
In 1107 William Warelwast was appointed to the see, and this was the catalyst for the building of a new cathedral in the Norman style. Its official foundation was in 1133, during Warelwast's time, but it took many more years to complete. Following the appointment of Walter Bronescombe as bishop in 1258, the building was already recognised as outmoded, and it was rebuilt in the Decorated Gothic style, following the example of Salisbury. However, much of the Norman building was kept, including the two massive square towers and part of the walls. It was constructed entirely of local stone, including Purbeck Marble. The new cathedral was complete by about 1400, apart from the addition of the chapter house and chantry chapels.
During the Second World War, Exeter was one of the targets of a German air offensive against British cities of cultural and historical importance, which became known as the "Baedeker Blitz". On 4 May 1942 an early-morning air raid took place over Exeter. The cathedral sustained a direct hit by a large high-explosive bomb on the chapel of St James, completely demolishing it. The muniment room above, three bays of the aisle and two flying buttresses were also destroyed in the blast. The medieval wooden screen opposite the chapel was smashed into many pieces by the blast, but it has been reconstructed and restored. Many of the cathedral's most important artefacts, such as the ancient glass (including the great east window), the misericords, the bishop's throne, the Exeter Book, the ancient charters (of King Athelstan and Edward the Confessor) and other precious documents from the library had been removed in anticipation of such an attack. The precious effigy of Walter Branscombe had been protected by sand bags. Subsequent repairs and the clearance of the area around the western end of the building uncovered portions of earlier structures, including remains of the Roman city and of the original Norman cathedral.

It is named after J.F. Archibald, owner and editor of The Bulletin magazine, who bequeathed funds to have it built. Archibald specified that it must be designed by a French artist, both because of his great love of French culture and to commemorate the association of Australia and France in World War I. He imagined its civic design and ornamentation developing to rival his dream city Paris. The artist chosen was François-Léon Sicard.
The fountain was unveiled on 14 March 1932 by the Lord Mayor of Sydney, Samuel Walder.
Classical tradition
Sicard was one of the foremost sculptors of his day, a classically educated artist, whose inspiration was derived, at least in part, from his study of classical Greek and Roman art and literature. In submitting his proposal for the design of the sculptural groups, Sicard wrote: "Apollo represents the Arts (Beauty and Light). Apollo holds out his right arm as a sign of protection, and spreads his benefits over all Nature, whilst he holds the Lyre in his left hand. Apollo is the warmth which vivifies, giving life to all Nature. At the touch of his rays, men awake, trees and fields become green, the animals go out into the fields, and men go to work at dawn.
"The ancient Pliny adored the sun, symbol of Life. It is on this account that I wished this figure to be the chief one in the memorial.
"At Apollo's feet the star of day is indicated by a semicircle, of which the rays spread out in jets of light (the rising sun). The horses' heads represent the horses of Apollo's chariot. Out of their nostrils the water will fall into the first basin, to fall from there into the second, and run away into the large basin.
"The large basin is divided into three groups. One represents Diana, goddess of purity, of peaceful nights, symbol of charity; the ideal which watches over mortals - all that stands for poetry and harmony. The second group symbolises the good things of the earth - it is the young god of the fields and pastures, of the pleasure of the countryside. The third group represents sacrifice for the public good. Theseus, vanquisher of the Minotaur. The spirit triumphs over bestiality. Theseus delivers his country from the ransom which it had to pay to this monster. It is the sacrifice of himself for the good of humanity. Between these groups tortoises throw jets of water. The fountain is electrically illuminated and floodlighted at night.

On the three plinths radiating from the central column there are figures representing Diana, the goddess of purity; a group representing the good things of the earth; Theseus slaying a Minotaur, representing the sacrifice for the good of humanity."
Interestingly, Sicard quotes Pliny as one of the ancient Roman sources for the modern understanding of the qualities supposedly represented by the gods. Rather than merely using the visual examples of works such as those by Pheidias, the iconic sculptor of classical Athens, whose free standing and frieze statuary represent the acme of the classical depiction of the human form in larger-than life bronze or marble, Sicard used literary sources to explain the symbology behind the form. The figure with the ram and goat is possibly Aristaeus.
His choice of classical figures was in keeping with the European tradition of the sculpture and architecture of the precinct of Hyde Park. There is no indication in the writings of Sicard, or indeed, in the appraisal of his work, that there was any intention to link the figures in the sculptural groups with any religious or sexual themes.

Properly named Spiced Pumpkin Cheesecake with Candied Pepitas but I prefer to call it Dinosaur Cheesecake based on its resemblance to the prehistoric creature. The "fins"and "scales" are pieces of candied pepitas (pumpkin seeds) that I mounted on a whiskey whipped cream filled crack down the centre of the cake.
The cheesecake is creamy and luscious just as the recipe promised with a good balance of pumpkin sweetness and warm spices. I serve it with clouds of whiskey brown sugar spiced whipped cream (not pictured).
Recipe originally published in Cook's Illustrated Magazine November 2003 issue. Read more at Dessert By Candy.

The Finnieston Crane - more properly, the Stobcross Crane - is a giant cantilever crane which entered service in 1932, and was used for loading heavy goods (i.e. steam locomotives) onto cargo ships for worldwide export.
Two companies were involved in the majority of its construction - the tower section was built by Cowans, Sheldon & Company, and the cantilever (lifting arm) was built by the Cleveland Bridge & Engineering Company.
It stands 175 feet tall, and whilst it was in operation, it had a maximum lifting capacity of 175 tonnes.
It fell into disuse in the early 1990s, but was retained as a symbol of Glasgow's industrial heritage - manufacturing for export, shipbuilding, and ship-borne trade on the River Clyde.
This shot was made by taking five shots in portrait orientation using my Sigma 120-400mm lens, shooting at 120mm and at f/8 aperture. I used the excellent freeware tool Hugin to stitch the five shots together.
Be sure to zoom in and check the steelwork!

Five years ago today Aidan Bay made me a mama. He properly initiated me into the throes of motherhood by surprising us all with a breech presentation at the last minute of our planned homebirth. With the tenacity and grit he carries with him to this day, he was born into a warm pool of water in our family room in just 4 hours. For me it was one of the big turning points of my life -- getting a glimpse of my own tenacity and strength as well as becoming a mother despite my own experience with an abusive mother. Becoming a parent is not for the faint of heart, yet it has the capacity to open our hearts wide if we let it. No matter what twisty path you walked to get to motherhood, it surely asked you to show up in a way you didn't think was possible. Happy Mother's Day mamas -- you are all truly incredible.

Meet Henry Lee, named after the song by Nick Cave. She's a TBL Ahcahcum Zukin knock off and I absolutely ador her!
Started with a properly exposed print, dark blue is better, but a really good exposed print is key or you end up with a totally brown piece of paper.
Bleached with baking soda 1/3 cup to 1 liter water (won't all dissolve just stir as much as you can in)
Bleached until completely yellow
Rinse well at least 5 min
then soaked overnight in green tea (foojoys 10 bags to pot of water let brew for 20 min
Put print in tea facedown try to give it a rock every couple hours (or more)
Should look brown in 12 ish hours.
At first the print may seem a bit purple, but in a few days it will be a perfect sepia.
Sometimes it's more of a purple brown, I think in that case, more bleaching is necessary.
I use Rives BFK Heavyweight.
Properly called Sinningia speciosa. This one is almost black and is blooming in Mother's kitchen. As you can see, these big velvety blooms are purple and mottled in the centre and have a white border. Always one of my favourite flowers.
This variety is Kaiser Wilhelm. The red one, Kaiser Friedrich, is just as good.

The East Westmeath AC 5KM Road Race, Fun Run, and Walk 2013 was held in Rathwire Village, Mullingar, Co. Westmeath, Ireland on Saturday 7th December 2013 at 11:00. The race was organised as part of an annual fund-raising event for the local national school (St. Joseph's National School) as a road race event for the promotion of the recently formed East Westmeath AC in the area. The race was a great success with runners, joggers, and walkers of all abilities taking part. The two loops on the course meant that there was a great atmosphere around the course. Overall this was a very well organised race - the race was accurately measured, well stewarded, and each KM was marked. Key road junctions were properly stewarded also.
This photograph is part of a larger set of photographs which was taken on the day. The link to the entire set of photographs on Flickr is www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/sets/72157638438922444.
East Westmeath Athletics Club is a newly formed athletic club for the region of Westmeath east of Mullingar. This race is an annual fundraiser for the local national school. The club was founded in the village of Rathwire which is seamlessly connected to the neighbouring village of Killucan in the same parish. East Westmeath AC have a very large juvenille membership who also attend the local school so this event has great local significance and meaning. The catchment area for East Westmeath AC contains a large area of rural Westmeath taking in the villages of Killucan, Rathwire, and Raharney. The catchment area essentially stretches over to the town of Kinnegad and the county border between Co. Meath and Co. Westmeath.

Overall Race Summary and Logistics
Participants: There were about 150 competitors in today's event.
Weather: There was a few short but heavy misty rain showers which dampened the event a little. There was little or no wind or breeze but the misty rain combined with the low temperatures meant there was a chilly feel.
Race Course:
The race was a 2 loop course of 2.5KM. The race started just outside the National School and proceeded on anti-clockwise left-turn course into Killucan and back up around by the Church of Ireland up the hill turning into Rathwire and back past the Church to complete the loop. The race finished inside the grounds of the National School.
Refreshments: There was a plentiful supply of warm drinks and sandwiches/cakes inside in the school after the race for all participants.

This also extends the use of these images for Facebook profile pictures. In these cases please make a separate wall or blog post with a link to our Flickr page. If you do not know how this should be done for Facebook or other social media please email us and we will be happy to help suggest how to link to us.
Please email petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com with the links to the photographs you would like to obtain a full resolution copy of. We also ask race organisers, media, etc to ask for permission before use of our images for flyers, posters, etc. We reserve the right to refuse a request.

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 www.flickr.com/peterm7/sets
Properly named Spiced Pumpkin Cheesecake with Candied Pepitas but I prefer to call it Dinosaur Cheesecake based on its resemblance to the prehistoric creature. The "fins"and "scales" are pieces of candied pepitas (pumpkin seeds) that I mounted on a whiskey whipped cream filled crack down the centre of the cake.
The cheesecake is creamy and luscious just as the recipe promised with a good balance of pumpkin sweetness and warm spices. I serve it with clouds of whiskey brown sugar spiced whipped cream (not pictured).
Recipe originally published in Cook's Illustrated Magazine November 2003 issue. Read more at Dessert By Candy.

The Archibald Fountain, properly called the J. F. Archibald Memorial Fountain, widely regarded as the finest public fountain in Australia, is located in Hyde Park, in central Sydney, New South Wales.
It is named after J. F. Archibald, owner and editor of The Bulletin magazine, who bequeathed funds to have it built. Archibald specified that it must be designed by a French artist, both because of his great love of French culture and to commemorate the association of Australia and France in World War I. He wished Sydney to aspire to Parisian civic design and ornamentation. The artist chosen was François-Léon Sicard.
Sicard was one of the foremost sculptors of his day, a classically educated artist, whose inspiration was derived, at least in part, from his study of classical Greek and Roman art and literature. In submitting his proposal for the design of the sculptural groups, Sicard wrote: "Apollo represents the Arts (Beauty and Light). Apollo holds out his right arm as a sign of protection, and spreads his benefits over all Nature, whilst he holds the Lyre in his left hand. Apollo is the warmth which vivifies, giving life to all Nature. At the touch of his rays, men awake, trees and fields become green, the animals go out into the fields, and men go to work at dawn.
"The ancient Pliny adored the sun, symbol of Life. It is on this account that I wished this figure to be the chief one in the memorial.
"At Apollo's feet the star of day is indicated by a semicircle, of which the rays spread out in jets of light (the rising sun). The horses' heads represent the horses of Apollo's chariot. Out of their nostrils the water will fall into the first basin, to fall from there into the second, and run away into the large basin.
"The large basin is divided into three groups. One represents Diana, goddess of purity, of peaceful nights, symbol of charity; the ideal which watches over mortals - all that stands for poetry and harmony. The second group symbolises the good things of the earth - it is the young god of the fields and pastures, of the pleasure of the countryside. The third group represents sacrifice for the public good. Theseus, vanquisher of the Minotaur. The spirit triumphs over bestiality. Theseus delivers his country from the ransom which it had to pay to this monster. It is the sacrifice of himself for the good of humanity. Between these groups tortoises throw jets of water. The fountain is electrically illuminated and floodlighted at night.
"It depicts Apollo, representing beauty and the arts, on a central column holding out his right arm as a sign of protection over all nature. On the three plinths radiating from the central column there are figures representing Diana, the goddess of purity; a group representing the good things of the earth; Theseus slaying a Minotaur, representing the sacrifice for the good of humanity."
The fountain was unveiled on 14 March 1932
Hyde Park, the oldest public parkland in Australia, is a 16.2-hectare (40 acres) park in the central business district of Sydney, New South Wales.
Hyde Park is on the eastern side of the Sydney city centre. It is the southernmost of a chain of parkland that extends north to the shore of Sydney Harbour via The Domain and Sydney's Royal Botanic Gardens. Hyde Park is approximately rectangular in shape, being squared at the southern end and rounded at the northern end.
The centrepiece of Hyde Park is the Archibald Fountain. The fountain was designed by François-Léon Sicard and donated by J.F. Archibald in 1932 in honour of Australia's contribution to World War I in France. Also at the northern end are the Nagoya Gardens featuring a giant outdoor chess set and the entrance to the underground St James railway station.

I will properly psychedelicise this tomorrow, and do it in colour, and make it as gloriously colourful and amazing and swirly and psychedelic as his music is, but for now, this is just a sneak peak of how it's going to turn out.
I just love his shy, hesitant smile so much, this big solemn eyes and this mouth that just can't help breaking into a massive grin. I've never seen a man who looks so much like his music, he is a giant walking paisley basically.
