Today the sunlight was very strong and I happened to notice that it was causing what appeared to be "RE" to be projected onto the cobblestones ... examine the shadow area of some of my photographs and decide for yourself.

During my recent visit to Belfast I noticed that Weathering steel is currently being used in many outdoor structures including street furniture.
The first time that I became aware of corten steel was when I saw "Gateway" by Michael Warren in Dun Laoghaire [since removed by popular demand] which I actually liked.
Weathering steel, best-known under the trademark COR-TEN steel and sometimes written without the hyphen as "Corten steel", is a group of steel alloys which were developed to eliminate the need for painting, and form a stable rust-like appearance if exposed to the weather for several years. Corten steel made its first impressive appearance on the world stage in the 1960s when the Finnish-American architect Eero Saarinen used it to create a four-building complex for the John Deere headquarters in Moline, Illinois.

Dundalk overwhelm Bangor in All Ireland Final
by Roger Corbett
Bangor’s amazing run in the All Ireland Junior Cup came to an abrupt end when they were comprehensively beaten by Dundalk, eventually losing by 55-5.
Where do you start when trying to relate and absorb the events of Saturday’s final at Chambers Park? Firstly, congratulations to worthy winners Dundalk who nullified the Bangor attack, then went on to produce some stunning plays which racked up no less than 8 tries, each by a different player. For Bangor’s part, they were unable to respond to the intensity of Dundalk’s game, and lacked the cutting edge which their opponents used to great effect.
The day started full of promise, as the strong support from North Down made their way to Chambers Park in Portadown, knowing Bangor would be fielding their best team. Once again, the pundits had Bangor as the underdogs – just as they had done so in the previous three rounds! In confounding the experts earlier, Bangor produced some awesome performances against top quality opposition to get to the final. Dundalk had produced some convincing wins in the early rounds of the competition, but had struggled to get past CIYMS in the semi-final, just managing to squeeze ahead at the second time of asking. However, with a number of key players returning to the side in time for this game, they were now back at full strength and would be a formidable force to contend with.
Having won the toss, captain Jamie Clegg elected to play into the stiff wind in the first half. For the first 5 minutes, Bangor doggedly retained possession and tried to play their way into Dundalk’s half through a series of determined forward moves. However, little ground was made and, when possession was finally lost, the Dundalk back line produced a burst that simply cut through the Bangor defence resulting in an easy touch down under Bangor’s posts for a 7-0 lead.
Bangor stuck to their plan and slowly, but patiently, got their attack moving forward, eventually winning a penalty to the left of Dundalk’s posts, but Mark Widdowson’s kick into the wind drifted just wide of the mark.
The contrast in play between the two teams was becoming clear, with Bangor trying to keep the ball close while Dundalk were throwing it wide. The latter strategy was proving to be the more effective as, with 20 minutes gone, a quick back line move with players looping around resulted in an overlap on the right wing which gave a clear run in to again, score under the posts. A further 9 minutes later, they did it again and, although the Bangor defence had sensed the danger and moved across to cover it, their tackling let them down allowing Dundalk to get over in the right hand corner, taking their lead to 19-0.
By now, Bangor were trying to hang on until half time when they could regroup and come out with the wind at their backs. Dundalk, on the other hand were anxious to press home their advantage and give them a more comfortable lead. To Bangor’s credit, although camped on their own line for lengthy spells, they dug in and managed to hold on until the referee’s half time whistle.
As the teams reappeared from the dressing rooms, it was obvious Bangor were ringing the changes, particularly in the backs. With the wind advantage having lessened considerably, Bangor got the second half underway. It was now Dundalk’s turn to adopt the slow, steady approach, just as Bangor had done earlier. However, their more confident off-loading and support play was, once again, taking play deep into Bangor’s territory. Frustration at not being able to gain possession and take play out of their danger area eventually resulted in a yellow card for Clegg after a succession of penalties. Dundalk kicked the penalty to touch, won their lineout and drove for the line. Although initially held up by the Bangor defence, Dundalk’s repeated drives were eventually rewarded with another converted score, extending their lead to 26-0.
From the touchline, the Bangor faithful had felt that if their players had managed to score first in the second half, they may have been able to mount a fight-back and close the gap to their opponents. As it was, this Dundalk score simply bolstered their confidence and pushed Bangor deeper into trouble. With Bangor still a man down, Dundalk added to the score with a penalty and then another score in the corner. Everything was now working for the Leinster men, as even the difficult touchline conversion into the biting wind successfully split the posts, bringing the score to 36-0.
As the game entered the final quarter, and with Dundalk all but holding the cup, Bangor were now on the ropes. By contrast, the Dundalk players were in almost total control, and were not going to slow down now. In a 10 minute spell, they ran in a further 3 tries, making the scoreline 55-0. By now, any sense of dejection the Bangor supporters may have been feeling was now moved to feelings of sympathy for their players. However, pride was at stake and once again Bangor rallied as the game entered its final minutes. At last, the forwards got within striking distance of the Dundalk line and, although their repeated attacks were repelled, they finally managed to do what their opponents had done so effectively, and quickly passed the ball wide to Davy Charles. Even though they were 55 points ahead, the Dundalk defence made Charles work hard to drive through the tackles and score Bangor’s consolation try, bringing the final score to 55-5.
From Bangor’s point of view, the final score doesn’t tell the whole story of this competition. While the final may have resulted in a sad anti-climax for Bangor, the remarkable journey to get there will be remembered for some time. On the day, Dundalk were by far the better side, and Bangor would have to concede that their game was not up to the usual standard. However, there is no doubt the experience of competing at this level is something to relish and the goal now will be to secure a top four place in the league and try again next year.
Everybody at the club has nothing but the highest respect and praise for what has been achieved this year by not just the 1sts, but all the senior teams, and one poor result isn’t going to change that – the welcome at Upritchard Park for the returning players is testament to that. With that in mind, the players now need to put this disappointment behind them and provide the best possible response against a struggling Portadown side at home in the league next Saturday.

In front of a big crowd at Chambers Park on Saturday afternoon Dundalk delivered a stunning and ruthless display to see off the challenge of Bangor and capture the All Ireland Junior Cup title for the very first time.
Three first half tries had them firmly in control at 19-0 ahead having played with the elements at the Portadown venue during the first half and while the wind dropped somewhat after half time the Dundalk intensity most certainly didn’t as they cut loose scoring five more tries.
Dundalk returned to a heroes welcome at their Mill Road clubhouse on Saturday night after a display of pure brilliance throughout the afternoon.

He is the current Joint Secretary in the Ministry of External Affairs. In charge of UN affairs relating to economic and social issues, TS Tirumurti was one of India’s main interlocutors when the UN Human Rights Council adopted the resolution on Sri Lanka recently. However, what many do not know about this 1985-batch Indian Foreign Service officer is his penchant for writing. “I started writing at night to unwind and take my mind off from work,” he states, sharing how the process of wielding the pen began years ago, when he was the director at the foreign secretary’s office. While his first novel, Clive Avenue, released in 2002, now, Tirumurti has published another book, Chennaivaasi. A romantic novel set in the heart of Chennai, this narrates the tale of a Tamil-Brahmin boy who falls in love with a Jewish-American girl. The duo travel to seek the consent of their parents for marriage.
While Tirumurti waits for feedback from the readers, he is excited about the growing fraternity of diplomats who are turning into authors. “For the first time, Indian diplomats are taking up fiction writing seriously and are able to sustain it,” he says.
The bookshelves are an indicator. Leading the pack is Vikas Swarup, Indian Consul General in Osaka. If his bestseller Q&A was adapted into Oscar-winning movie Slumdog Millionaire, now Swarup has come out with his second book, Six Suspects. Also on a pen drive is Navtej Sarna, India’s ambassador to Israel, who’s first novel We Weren't Lovers Like That was published in 2003. A regular at the Jaipur Literature Festival, he has also penned The Book of Nanak and The Exile.
Pavan K Varma, Indian envoy in Bhutan, also has several books to his credit, including Ghalib: The Man, The Times, Krishna: The Playful Divine, The Great Indian Middle Class, The Book of Krishna and Being Indian, all published by Penguin. He has also translated Gulzar (Selected Poems), Kaifi Azmi (Selected Poems) and Atal Bihari Vajpayee (21 Poems) into English.
Also dabbling with translation is Navdeep Suri, another IFS officer, who started the Twitter, Facebook and social media connect of the MEA. Suri has stepped into the world of writing with A Life Incomplete and The Saintly Sinner (relaunched as The Watchmaker). Both are translations of his grandfather Nanak Singh’s works.
Even though his colleagues seem to be partial to novels, Abhay Kumar, who is now posted in Kathmandu, has written several poems. He has to his credit several books, from Remains to Candling the Light, Fallen Leaves of Autumn and Enigmatic Love, apart from the non-fiction novel River Valley to Silicon Valley.
While they borrow from their experiences, the diplomats have their own writing styles. “I believe in minimal writing and maximum impact,” says Tirumurti, who is related to renowned author RK Narayan. “He is my uncle and a hero to me,” notes Tirumurti, who has also written a travelogue on the Mansarovar Yatra.

This diorama depicts events relating to 11 April 1917 when the 4th Australian Division attacked the Hindenburg Line near the village of Bullecourt. The tanks that were to have broken a way through the wire failed badly and the infantry, with great gallantry but no support, flung themselves against the uncut wire, which many actually succeeded in crossing. As neither reinforcements nor munitions could be brought to them, the remnants had to withstand fierce counter-attacks, until finally obliged to fight their way back through the enemy to No-Man's Land, across which they straggled under a withering fire.
As well as the displays relating to Bletchley's wartime codebreaking activities, Bletchley Park also houses various related collections. There's a post-war collection of calculators and computers, many of them, astonishingly, still working. This array of disk drives is part of an ICL 2900 series computer. I worked with its predecessor, the 1900 series, in the 70s. Each drive cabinet is about the size of a washing machine and the removable disks (resting on top of the cabinets) are about 100Mbyte. The total huge array was probably just about the capacity of the 2Gbyte memory stick I had in a bag on my belt and certainly smaller than the 4Gbyte memory card in the compact camera that took this photo!
Relating back to the previous workshop of fashion illustration, I took inspiration to amplify even more human traits in this experiment. For this piece I worked towards a tight deadline - drawing 30 frames tested my consistency, efficiency and ability to work under pressure. Using primary sources of people’s eyes and a mouth with a prop cigarette, I edited them together Adobe Premiere to create a disfigured, but amusing looping video of a chair waking up. It has 6 eyes opening, whilst grunting and falling back to sleep - with some eyes interacting with one another. Unfortunately I added smudges to represent the puffs of smoke billowing from the chair however it was too faint to appear on screen. Regardless I am very pleased with the outcome of my first rotoscope.
This relates to H.C. DeMunn in that he was one of five delegates who represented Boone County, Illinois in the Illinois State Nominating Convention held in Decatur on May 10, 1860.
The page above, The Daily Illinois State Journal was published in Springfield May 12, 1860, two days after the event. The National Convention took place May 16-18 in Chicago.
Its a long winded page about nominating Lincoln but to cut to the chase, all the Illinois delegates were listed under the county they represented and they all voted for Lincoln.
The list of delegates begins in the third column and luckily the counties are listed alphabetically so Boone County is easy to find. You will have to enlarge the page or download the full size to read it but I will include a transcription below.

Now you're away you write home everyday

You don't think that life's for us to talk about
You can leave whenever you want out... you want out...

In analytical psychology, the shadow (also known as ego-dystonic complex, repressed id, shadow aspect, or shadow archetype) is an unconscious aspect of the personality that does not correspond with the ego ideal, leading the ego to resist and project the shadow, creating conflict with it. The shadow may be personified as archetypes which relate to the collective unconscious, such as the trickster.[1][2][3][4][5]

The shadow can be thought of as the blind spot of the psyche.[6] The repression of one's id, while maladaptive, prevents shadow integration, the union of id and ego.[7][8] While they are regarded as differing on their theories of the function of repression of id in civilization, Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung coalesced at Platonism, wherein id rejects the nomos.[clarification needed][9] Persona is contrasted against the shadow.[10] Jung regarded the shadow as unconscious – id and biography – suppressed under the superego's ego-ideal, the way the superego wants to be.[11] The shadow is projected onto one's social environment as cognitive distortions.[12] However, the shadow can also be regarded as "roughly equivalent to the whole of the Freudian unconscious",[13] and Jung himself asserted that "the result of the Freudian method of elucidation is a minute elaboration of man's shadow side unexampled in any previous age".[14]: 63
Contrary to a Freudian definition of shadow, the idea can include everything outside the light of consciousness and may be positive or negative.[citation needed] Because a subject can repress awareness or conceal self-threatening aspects of the self, consensus of the idea of the shadow that it is a negative function in the self, despite the extent of the repression failing to prohibit these aspects.[15] There are positive aspects that can remain hidden in one's shadow – especially in people with low self-esteem, anxieties, and false beliefs – with these aspects being brought to the conscious mind and exercised through analysis and therapy.[16] It may be considered the subject's identification with id, superseded in early childhood, though it can also be influenced by early to late childhood.[17][18]
Jung wrote that if awareness of the projection of the shadow remains repressed, "the projection-making factor (the Shadow archetype) then has a free hand and can realize its object – if it has one – or bring about some other situation characteristic of its power", lending the idea autonomous qualities which can have consequences on the id and the ego.[19] These projections insulate and delude individuals in society by acting as a symbolically deployed barrier between the ego and the ego-less Real.
Collective shadow

The collective unconscious, a concept that states that all of humanity shares some unconscious ideals, forms a projective identification with uncertainty and feelings of helplessness along with other negative feelings. This projection frequently identifies with the figure of the Devil as the "fourth" aspect of the Pauline-Christian trinity, functioning as its grounding myth.[24] This idea can be seen in other mythologies, for instance, the ancient-Egyptian-devil Set "represents overwhelming affects".[25] The collective shadow is ancestral and is carried by the collective experience of the human race (i.e., in-group and out-group: dehumanization; e.g., hate crime).[26][27]

Jungians believe that the shadow aspect of the Self may appear in dreams and visions (i.e., mise-en-scène),[28][29] in various forms and typically "appears as a person of the same sex as that of the dreamer."[30]: 175 The shadow's appearance and role depend greatly on the living experience of the individual because much of the shadow develops in the individual's mind rather than simply being inherited from the collective unconscious and is important in the Jungian approach to dream interpretation.[30]: 183 Nevertheless, some Jungians maintain that "the shadow contains, besides the personal shadow, the shadow of society [...] fed by the neglected and repressed collective values."[31]
Jung also made the suggestion that the shadow may be made up of many layers. The top layers contain the meaningful flow and manifestations of direct personal experiences. These are made unconscious in the individual by such things as the change of attention from one thing to another, simple forgetfulness, or a repression. Underneath these specific layers, however, are the archetypes which form the psychic contents of all human experiences. Jung described this deeper layer as "a psychic activity which goes on independently of the conscious mind and is not dependent even on the upper layers of the unconscious – untouched, and perhaps untouchable – by personal experience."[32]
Encountering the shadow
Main article: Nekyia
For broader coverage of this topic, see Active imagination and Amplification (psychology).
See also: Dialectic, Dialogic, Hero's journey, and Katabasis
As the shadow is a part of the unconscious, a method called Shadow work is practiced through active imagination with daydreaming and meditation – the experience is then mediated by dialectical interpretation through narrative and art (pottery, poetry, drawing, dancing, singing, etc.); analysts perform dreamwork on analysands, using amplification to raise the unconscious to conscious awareness.[33][34][35] Jung uses the term Nekyia to describe the descent into darkness, where the ego fades.[36]
The eventual encounter with the shadow plays a central part in the process of individuation. Jung considered that "the course of individuation [...] exhibits a certain formal regularity. Its signposts and milestones are various archetypal symbols" marking its stages; and of these "the first stage leads to the experience of the shadow."[37] If "the breakdown of the persona constitutes the typical Jungian moment both in therapy and in development,"[38] it is this that opens the road to the shadow within, coming about when "beneath the surface a person is suffering from a deadly boredom that makes everything seem meaningless and empty...as if the initial encounter with the Self casts a dark shadow ahead of time."[30]: 170 Jung considered as a perennial danger in life that "the more consciousness gains in clarity, the more monarchic becomes its content...the king constantly needs the renewal that begins with a descent into his own darkness"[39]: 334 – his shadow – which the "dissolution of the persona" sets in motion.[40]
"The shadow personifies everything that the subject refuses to acknowledge about himself",[41]: 284 whether consciously or unconsciously, and represents "a tight passage, a narrow door, whose painful constriction no one is spared who goes down to the deep well."[41]: 21
[If and when] an individual makes an attempt to see his shadow, he becomes aware of (and often ashamed of) those qualities and impulses he denies in himself but can plainly see in others – such things as egotism, mental laziness, and sloppiness; unreal fantasies, schemes, and plots; carelessness and cowardice; inordinate love of money and possessions...[30]: 174
The dissolution of the persona and the launch of the individuation process also brings with it "the danger of falling victim to the shadow ... the black shadow which everybody carries with him, the inferior and therefore hidden aspect of the personality"[42] – resulting in a merger with the shadow.
Merging with the shadow
For broader coverage of this topic, see Positive disintegration, Anagoge, and Introjection.
Jung considered merging with the shadow as typically bad, viewing it as the process of the suppressed id overwriting or controlling the ego. According to Jung, the shadow sometimes overwhelms a person's actions; for example, when the conscious mind is shocked, confused, or paralyzed by indecision. "A man who is possessed by his shadow is always standing in his own light and falling into his own traps...living below his own level."[41]: 123 Hence, in terms of the story of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, "it must be Jekyll, the conscious personality, who integrates the shadow ... and not vice versa. Otherwise the conscious becomes the slave of the autonomous shadow."[43]
Individuation inevitably raises that very possibility as it further separates the ego from the collective unconsciousness. As the process continues, and "the libido leaves the bright upper world... sinks back into its own depths... below, in the shadows of the unconscious."[44] so too what comes to the forefront is "what was hidden under the mask of conventional adaptation: the shadow", with the result that "ego and shadow are no longer divided but are brought together in an – admittedly precarious – unity."[45][full citation needed]
The effect of such "confrontation with the shadow produces at first a dead balance, a standstill that hampers moral decisions and makes convictions ineffective ... nigredo, tenebrositas, chaos, melancholia."[39] Consequently, as Jung knew from personal experience: "In this time of descent – one, three, seven years, more or less – genuine courage and strength are required",[46] with no certainty of emergence. Nevertheless, Jung remained of the opinion that while "no one should deny the danger of the descent [...] every descent is followed by an ascent",[47] and assimilation of – rather than possession by – the shadow becomes a possibility.
Assimilation of the shadow
Main articles: Anima and animus and Acceptance
For broader coverage of this topic, see Reality testing, Metanoia (psychology), Pleroma, and Post-traumatic growth.
Assimilation[48] is the process of acknowledging the shadow and possibly incorporating parts of it into the ego. Jungians believe this may lead to a numinous experience, while anchoring to the numinosum effect without reality testing can lead to ego inflation (qv., archetypal possession).[49]
In analytical psychology, the struggle for the superego is to retain awareness of the shadow, but not to become it or be controlled by it. "Non-identification demands considerable moral effort [which] prevents a descent into that darkness"; and though "the conscious mind is liable to be submerged at any moment in the unconscious...understanding acts like a life-saver. It integrates the unconscious."[50][full citation needed] This reincorporates the shadow into the personality, producing a stronger, wider consciousness than before. "Assimilation of the shadow gives a man body, so to speak,"[14]: 239 thereby providing a launchpad for further individuation. "The integration of the shadow, or the realization of the personal unconscious, marks the first stage in the analytic process... without it a recognition of anima and animus is impossible."[51] Conversely, "to the degree in which the shadow is recognised and integrated, the problem of the anima, i.e., of relationship, is constellated,"[41]: 270n and becomes the centre of the individuation quest.
Carolyn Kaufman wrote that "in spite of its function as a reservoir for human darkness – or perhaps because of this – the shadow is the seat of creativity;"[52] so that for some, it may be that "the dark side of his being, his sinister shadow...represents the true spirit of life as against the arid scholar."[53] Nevertheless, Jungians warn that "acknowledgement of the shadow must be a continuous process throughout one's life;"[54] and even after the focus of individuation has moved on to the animus/anima, "the later stages of shadow integration" will continue to take place – the grim "process of washing one's dirty linen in private,"[55] of accepting one's shadow.

Kinetic: Relating to, caused by, or producing motion.
These are called “Kinetic” photographs because there is motion, energy, and movement involved, specifically my and the camera’s movements.
Most of these are shot outdoors where I have the room to literally spin and throw my little camera several feet up into the air, with some throws going as high as 15 feet or more!
None of these are Photoshopped, layered, or a composite photo...what you see occurs in one shot, one take.
Aren’t I afraid that I will drop and break my camera? For regular followers of my photostream and this series you will know that I have already done so. This little camera has been dropped many times, and broken once when dropped on concrete outside. It still functions...not so well for regular photographs, but superbly for more kinetic work.
Albeit supremely risky this is one of my favorite ways to produce abstract photographs.

Cruising down the main street of Florida Beach, bumping into the fishing base and returning down the beach road makes one realize that the town is very narrow.
The penetrating sea is like a sharp sword, taking land from the fragile town and the houses.
Unfortunately, it is estimated that by 2050 Florida Beach will disappear from the sea and be stranded on muddy soil.
This is additional to the wear and tear suffered through the years from hurricanes, with Irma (2017) one of the most devastating.
Shrinkage isn't the only thing visible when walking its streets. The village is empty, closed houses abound, and it's almost rare to see villagers loitering.
“This is one of the places in Cuba where more evidence exists of coastline modification caused by climate change," says Isabel Cristina Marquez Ulloa, Coordinator of the 'Mi Costa' project.
With finance from the Adaptation Fund and support from UNDP, the 'Mi Costa' project aims to develop adaptation, and enhance the resilience of coastal ecosystems: corals, seagrasses and cedar forests.
The inclusion of communities in the area in the project is vital, because currently, among the most important problems, is the mismanagement of solid waste and environmental custodianship.
Restoring and caring for the coasts is crucial for ecosystems and people. Many villagers, although migrating to the municipality, intend to keep their work at the fishing base and continue this activity as the main source of income.
Florida Beach, which still retains part of its beauty and colour, is also a potential national and international tourist destination.

(Full text follows; another Maerten patent is described in MTR-1908-47-5-15).
MECHANICAL MUSICAL INSTRUMENT. Issued May 26, 1908, to Christian Maerten, Jr., of North Tonawanda, N. Y. Filed Jan. 29, 1908. Patent No. 888,830.
This invention relates to mechanical or self-playing organs and other musical instruments of the sort in which the pneumatic devices, controlled by a perforated music sheet traveling over the tracker-board and adapted to open and close passages therein leading to the pneumatic devices, automatically operate the instrument. Instruments of this sort are quite commonly used in parks, skating rinks and other places of amusement where it is desirable to have the instrument render musical selections at predetermined or regular intervals of time, and while instruments have been made which automatically stop at the termination of one or more selections,
an attendant is ordinarily required to again start the instrument. The principal object of this invention is to provide an automatic starting and stopping mechanism for self-playing musical instruments whereby the travel of the music sheet will be arrested and the music stopped at the end of each selection, and the music sheet again started after a period of time has elapsed and the next selection thereon played, when the music sheet contains a plurality of selections, or the selection or selections repeated, without attention of an operator.
Other objects of the invention are to provide an efficient starting and stopping mechanism for this purpose of simple construction which can be applied to the instrument at small expense, and which can be readily adjusted to regulate, as desired, the interval of time between the playing of the selections; also to provide means whereby the music can be started and stopped at will by hand; also to provide in connection with the starting and stopping mechanism, simple means
for changing at will the speed of travel of the music sheet to govern the time of the music; and also to improve instruments of this type in the particulars hereinafter described and set forth in the claims. To this end, the music sheet is provided, at the end of the note perforations for each selection thereon, with a stop perforation which, when it registers with a co-operating passage in the tracker-board, causes the operation
of a stop bellows or pneumatic. This pneumatic and the mechanism actuated thereby arrest the music sheet and throw out of action the means which operate the speaking devices, so that the music ceases, and at the same time throw into action a starting gear train which, when it has been in action for a definite period of time, acts through-, suitable mechanism to again start the music sheet and place the operating means for the speaking devices in action so that the next selection on the music sheet is played. When the music has been thus started, the starting train remains at rest until the end of the selection is reached and the stop pneumatic is again actuated to stop the music, when the starting train will be again set in motion. The music is thus automatically stopped at the end of each selection and again started after a definite lapse of time.

Ghost
The show’s second act, Ghost, marks the collapse of hyperinflated 80s culture into an uncanny temperature change that presided over the 90s and early 00s. It traces an unsettling path through to the global financial crisis of 2008, a turning point in time between a century of old and new, at the dawn of a digital age of faceless audiences and invisible cyber wars.
Derek Jarman’s last feature and magnum opus, Blue (1993), offers a profound evocation of the artist’s final days, marrying comforting connection with disconnection from the world, warmth with coldness, as Jarman poetically narrates his approach towards death. Newly commissioned, immersive sound installations from Laura Grace Ford and Nick Ryan highlight the strange frequencies of an age that saw the emergence of trance music and readily accessible sampling machines. Ford’s installation explores the sonic textures of the city to uncover those hiding in the black spots that neoliberalism has failed to assimilate, while Ryan’s voices form a call-and-response, as visitors become spectator, spectacle and a ghost in the machine. Works from Jeremy Millar and Gavin Turk unsettle with a paradoxical clash of ghostly presence and absence, familiarity and otherness. Cornelia Parker’s map, scorched with a heated meteorite fragment, tells a tale of apocalypse for the end of the millennium and the fear of the unknown.
Contributing artists include A Guy Called Gerald, Barry Adamson, Hamad Butt, Adam Chodzko, Kevin Cummins, Graham Dolphin, Tim Etchells, Angus Fairhurst, Paul Finnegan, Laura Grace Ford, Ghostwatch, Lucy Gunning, Paul Heartfield, Susan Hiller, Matthew Holness & Richard Ayoade, Stewart Home, Derek Jarman, Michael Landy, Richard Littler (Scarfolk), Jeremy Millar, Haroon Mirza, Drew Mulholland, Pat Naldi & Wendy Kirkup, Cornelia Parker, Steve Pemberton, Nic Roeg, Nick Ryan, Scanner (Robin Rimbaud), Adam Scovell, Sensory Leakage, Reece Shearsmith, David Shrigley, Iain Sinclair, Kerry Stewart, Tricky, Gavin Turk, Richard Wells, Rachel Whiteread and Words & Pictures.

The Horror Show! A Twisted Tale of Modern Britain
(October 2022 - February 2023)
Somerset House presents The Horror Show!: A Twisted Tale of Modern Britain, a major exhibition exploring how ideas rooted in horror have informed the last 50 years of creative rebellion. The show looks beyond horror as a genre, instead taking it as a reaction and provocation to our most troubling times. The last five decades of modern British history are recast as a story of cultural shapeshifting told through some of our country’s most provocative artists. The Horror Show! offers a heady ride through the disruption of 1970s punk to the revolutionary potential of modern witchcraft, showing how the anarchic alchemy of horror – its subversion, transgression and the supernatural – can make sense of the world around us. Horror not only allows us to voice our fears; it gives us the tools to stare them down and imagine a radically different future.
Featuring over 200 artworks and culturally significant objects, this landmark show tells a story of the turbulence, unease and creative revolution at the heart of the British cultural psyche in three acts – Monster, Ghost and Witch. Each act interprets a specific era through the lens of a classic horror archetype, in a series of thematically linked contemporaneous and new works:
Each of the exhibition’s acts opens with ‘constellations’ of talismanic objects. These cabinets of curiosities speak to significant cultural shifts and anxieties in each era, while invoking a haunting from the counter-cultural voices in recent British history. Alongside these introductory artworks and ephemera is an atmospheric soundtrack, conjuring the spirit of the time with music from Bauhaus, Barry Adamson and Mica Levi.
Monster, Ghost and Witch culminate in immersive installations, combining newly commissioned work, large-scale sculpture, fashion and sound installation, with each chapter signed off with a neon text-work by Tim Etchells. The Horror Show! offers an intoxicating deep-dive into the counter-cultural, mystic and uncanny, with the signature design of the three acts courtesy of architects Sam Jacob Studio and Grammy-winning creative studio Barnbrook.

I relate to a dinosaur?! That's crazy talk!
Hung out with the best friend, walked around the mall, around walmart and had lunch! (only thing I got was lunch, because i am broke)
Was supposed to go look around the container store, but ended up not going. I am going for sure tomorrow, though.
Ended up going to see The Good Dinosaur, and it was so cute and good! Arlo is my favorite, and when you see the movie you'll understand. I will not spoil the movie for anyone.

Dundalk overwhelm Bangor in All Ireland Final
by Roger Corbett
Bangor’s amazing run in the All Ireland Junior Cup came to an abrupt end when they were comprehensively beaten by Dundalk, eventually losing by 55-5.
Where do you start when trying to relate and absorb the events of Saturday’s final at Chambers Park? Firstly, congratulations to worthy winners Dundalk who nullified the Bangor attack, then went on to produce some stunning plays which racked up no less than 8 tries, each by a different player. For Bangor’s part, they were unable to respond to the intensity of Dundalk’s game, and lacked the cutting edge which their opponents used to great effect.
The day started full of promise, as the strong support from North Down made their way to Chambers Park in Portadown, knowing Bangor would be fielding their best team. Once again, the pundits had Bangor as the underdogs – just as they had done so in the previous three rounds! In confounding the experts earlier, Bangor produced some awesome performances against top quality opposition to get to the final. Dundalk had produced some convincing wins in the early rounds of the competition, but had struggled to get past CIYMS in the semi-final, just managing to squeeze ahead at the second time of asking. However, with a number of key players returning to the side in time for this game, they were now back at full strength and would be a formidable force to contend with.
Having won the toss, captain Jamie Clegg elected to play into the stiff wind in the first half. For the first 5 minutes, Bangor doggedly retained possession and tried to play their way into Dundalk’s half through a series of determined forward moves. However, little ground was made and, when possession was finally lost, the Dundalk back line produced a burst that simply cut through the Bangor defence resulting in an easy touch down under Bangor’s posts for a 7-0 lead.
Bangor stuck to their plan and slowly, but patiently, got their attack moving forward, eventually winning a penalty to the left of Dundalk’s posts, but Mark Widdowson’s kick into the wind drifted just wide of the mark.
The contrast in play between the two teams was becoming clear, with Bangor trying to keep the ball close while Dundalk were throwing it wide. The latter strategy was proving to be the more effective as, with 20 minutes gone, a quick back line move with players looping around resulted in an overlap on the right wing which gave a clear run in to again, score under the posts. A further 9 minutes later, they did it again and, although the Bangor defence had sensed the danger and moved across to cover it, their tackling let them down allowing Dundalk to get over in the right hand corner, taking their lead to 19-0.
By now, Bangor were trying to hang on until half time when they could regroup and come out with the wind at their backs. Dundalk, on the other hand were anxious to press home their advantage and give them a more comfortable lead. To Bangor’s credit, although camped on their own line for lengthy spells, they dug in and managed to hold on until the referee’s half time whistle.
As the teams reappeared from the dressing rooms, it was obvious Bangor were ringing the changes, particularly in the backs. With the wind advantage having lessened considerably, Bangor got the second half underway. It was now Dundalk’s turn to adopt the slow, steady approach, just as Bangor had done earlier. However, their more confident off-loading and support play was, once again, taking play deep into Bangor’s territory. Frustration at not being able to gain possession and take play out of their danger area eventually resulted in a yellow card for Clegg after a succession of penalties. Dundalk kicked the penalty to touch, won their lineout and drove for the line. Although initially held up by the Bangor defence, Dundalk’s repeated drives were eventually rewarded with another converted score, extending their lead to 26-0.
From the touchline, the Bangor faithful had felt that if their players had managed to score first in the second half, they may have been able to mount a fight-back and close the gap to their opponents. As it was, this Dundalk score simply bolstered their confidence and pushed Bangor deeper into trouble. With Bangor still a man down, Dundalk added to the score with a penalty and then another score in the corner. Everything was now working for the Leinster men, as even the difficult touchline conversion into the biting wind successfully split the posts, bringing the score to 36-0.
As the game entered the final quarter, and with Dundalk all but holding the cup, Bangor were now on the ropes. By contrast, the Dundalk players were in almost total control, and were not going to slow down now. In a 10 minute spell, they ran in a further 3 tries, making the scoreline 55-0. By now, any sense of dejection the Bangor supporters may have been feeling was now moved to feelings of sympathy for their players. However, pride was at stake and once again Bangor rallied as the game entered its final minutes. At last, the forwards got within striking distance of the Dundalk line and, although their repeated attacks were repelled, they finally managed to do what their opponents had done so effectively, and quickly passed the ball wide to Davy Charles. Even though they were 55 points ahead, the Dundalk defence made Charles work hard to drive through the tackles and score Bangor’s consolation try, bringing the final score to 55-5.
From Bangor’s point of view, the final score doesn’t tell the whole story of this competition. While the final may have resulted in a sad anti-climax for Bangor, the remarkable journey to get there will be remembered for some time. On the day, Dundalk were by far the better side, and Bangor would have to concede that their game was not up to the usual standard. However, there is no doubt the experience of competing at this level is something to relish and the goal now will be to secure a top four place in the league and try again next year.
Everybody at the club has nothing but the highest respect and praise for what has been achieved this year by not just the 1sts, but all the senior teams, and one poor result isn’t going to change that – the welcome at Upritchard Park for the returning players is testament to that. With that in mind, the players now need to put this disappointment behind them and provide the best possible response against a struggling Portadown side at home in the league next Saturday.

In front of a big crowd at Chambers Park on Saturday afternoon Dundalk delivered a stunning and ruthless display to see off the challenge of Bangor and capture the All Ireland Junior Cup title for the very first time.
Three first half tries had them firmly in control at 19-0 ahead having played with the elements at the Portadown venue during the first half and while the wind dropped somewhat after half time the Dundalk intensity most certainly didn’t as they cut loose scoring five more tries.
Dundalk returned to a heroes welcome at their Mill Road clubhouse on Saturday night after a display of pure brilliance throughout the afternoon.
Precision, pace and skill from the Louth men from start to finish left Bangor playing second fiddle for long periods.
Found this tiny old leather case at Mum's, stuffed with old documents relating to her parents. While I don't think we'll keep every single bill and receipt (although it is a fascinating record for social historians about how prices have changed), we'll certainly keep lots of the unique items, and I think will add parallel documents which reflect my parents. A couple of notable items are the letter confirming final payment on my grandparents mortgage (their first home cost £1,000!), plus a receipt for a wedding cake.
I've pulled out a couple of documents here - my nan worked in a new Post Office, and appears to have set up her own account first (perhaps as a practice?) - anyway, someone has to have book number 1 I guess. I was fascinated to see the set of Identity cards - one for nan, then one for each daughter. Complete with an ID number - I wonder when the government stopped issuing these? The final small item - on the right - is a match book. The first thing I've ever found which reflects the company my grandad worked for. He was a service engineer for Burroughs - maintaining adding machines. One to keep!

404. How did the universe begin and how will it end? What is matter? What is mind, and can it survive death? What are time and space, and how do they relate to ideas about God?
Is the order of the universe the result of accident or design?
The most profound and age-old questions of existence -- for centuries the focus of religion and philosophy -- may soon be answered through the extraordinary advances of a field of science known as the new physics. In this illuminating work, Paul Davies, author of the acclaimed Other Worlds and The Edge of Infinity, writes that the discoveries of 20th-century physics -- relativity and the quantum theory -- are now pointing the way to a new appreciation of man and his place in the universe. They could, in fact, bring within our grasp a unified description of all creation. Demanding a radical reformulation of the most fundamental aspects of reality and a way of thinking that is in closer accord with mysticism than materialism, the new physics, says Davies, offers a surer path to God than religion.
Described by The Washington Post as "impressive," God and the New Physics is a fascinating look at the impact of science on what were formerly religious issues. Elegantly written, a book for both scholars and lay readers of science, it is, according to the Christian Science Monitor, a "provocative...rewarding intellectual romp."

406. Der Grundlose Optimismus: Ein Buch Der Betrachtung (1894) Edition Allemand de Hieronymus Lorm (Author).
Heinrich Landesmann (9 August 1821, Nikolsburg – 4 December 1902, Brno), more commonly known by his pseudonym, Hieronymus Lorm, was an Austrian poet and philosophical writer.
From his earliest childhood he was very sickly; at the age of fifteen his sight and hearing were almost completely destroyed; and later in life he became totally blind. He developed the Lorm alphabet, a form of tactile signing named after him.
When but sixteen years old he contributed a number of poems to various periodicals. In 1843 he completed his first important literary production, Abdul, the Mohammedan Faust legend, in five cantos (2nd ed. Berlin, 1852).
His Wien's Poetische Schwingen und Federn (Vienna, 1847) manifested critical acumen, but also a tinge of political acerbity in its attack on the censor system of the Austrian chancellor Prince Metternich. His friends advised Landesmann to leave Vienna, and he went to Berlin, where he assumed the pseudonym Hieronymus Lorm in order to secure his family from possible trouble with the Viennese police. In Berlin he became a regular contributor to Kühne's Europa. After the revolution of 1848 he returned to Vienna, settling in Baden bei Wien in 1853.
In 1856 he married; in 1873 he moved to Dresden; and in 1892 he settled in Brünn (Brno). A sister of Landesmann's was the second wife of Berthold Auerbach. Landesmann was distinctively a lyric poet. The peculiar vein of pessimism that runs through both his poetry and his prose writings has won for him the title of the "lyrical Schopenhauer".
Someone once said that if you can relate to Edgar Allen Poe then you must be mentally ill. That person was also a simpleton and devoid of any real awareness of the dark corners of the human character. There is no doubt Poe was tortured man, an eccentric man and just maybe towards the end of his life mentally ill due to disease. No one knows for sure. His works are an expedition into love and loss, grief and insanity. They smite our emotions so hard because the human spirit is largely enveloped in feelings of sadness, rage, longing and feeling out of place. We may not perceive these things every second of everyday but they are there occasionally and they are very real for us. You cannot gaze upon the line “And all I loved, I loved alone” and not feel your heart fracture just a little, not because of the simple cluster of words but because we know all too well what he means! We feel it so deeply! That’s a truly great poet! A great poet deserves great homage, a series bridging many artistic journeys through some of the most adored compositions in Poe’s collection, a chance to create our own visions and build so much more on what he gave us.
"The Masque of the Red Death “is a short story by Edgar Allan Poe. The story follows Prince Prospero's attempts to avoid a dangerous plague, known as the Red Death. He, along with many other wealthy nobles, host a masquerade ball within seven rooms, each decorated with a different color. Prospero and 1,000 other nobles have taken refuge in this walled abbey to escape the Red Death, a terrible plague with gruesome symptoms that has swept over the land. Victims are overcome by "sharp pains", "sudden dizziness", and die within half an hour. Prospero and his court are indifferent to the sufferings of the population at large; they intend to await the end of the plague in luxury and safety behind the walls of their secure refuge, having welded the doors shut. At the chiming of midnight, the revelers and Prospero notice a figure in a dark, blood-splattered robe resembling a funeral shroud. The figure's mask resembles the rigid face of a corpse and exhibits the traits of the Red Death. When the figure turns to face him, the Prince lets out a sharp cry and falls dead... Only then do we realize the figure is the Red Death itself, and all of the guests contract and succumb to the disease. The final line of the story sums it up, "And Darkness and Decay and the Red Death held illimitable dominion over all".
For this project we had to take pictures that relate to a social issue and put them on a poster format. For the social issue, I chose infrastructure. I chose this issue because it’s something i heard a lot about during the 2016 election and i learned more about it. America’s overall grade for infrastructure is a D+. Roads, dams, parks, energy, drinking water, etc are all things that received less than a C+ rating for 2017.
My first picture is of a stairway railing in a house. I really liked the shadows on the wall from the outside light. Houses and buildings are a big part of our infrastructure so i decided to include this photograph.
My second picture is of a brick building in a park by my neighborhood. I liked how the trees in the background were in light and the building was darker. In 2005 and 2009 the overall grade for parks and recreation stayed consistent at a C-. In 2013 the grade rose to a C but in 2017, it fell all the way down to a D+, dropping to its lowest grade. There is an estimated $4.85 billion of unmet needs for America’s parks system.
My third photo is of a stone pathway in a concrete driveway. I liked the leading line of the stone to the end of the picture. In California there are 394,608 miles of Public Roads, with 50% in poor condition. America’s overall grade for roads has stayed at a consistent D since 2005.
The next photograph is a fence near my sister’s school. The overall grade for schools in America rose to a D+ from a D this year, but california’s schools have an estimated capital expenditure gap of $3.2 billion.
The next picture is a tire mark on my driveway with the light coming in from the background. I wanted to incorporate driving into the infrastructure issue because all the driving in America causes most of the damage to our public roads. In a place like Seattle, drivers spend an estimated 66 hours a year in traffic. In Los Angeles the average driver spends 81 a year. This is the most of any major city in America. On Wednesdays at 8 am, the most congested period of time, drivers go an average of 17 mph and spend 58 minutes longer in their cars than they would if there were no or little traffic.
The biggest photograph is of the top part of my house. I thought this picture should be the biggest one because it was the prettiest in my opinion. I think the lighting and the color of the sky combined made for great color and contrast in the photo.
The next picture is of light coming down onto wood. This is my least favorite picture because it doesn’t have anything that stands out but i did however like that it was showcases beautiful wood that we wouldn’t be able to have it we didn’t take care of our planet and the infrastructure that’s on it.
The next photo is a large crack in a dirt road. This was probably caused by many people walking over it. There are $26.2 billion in wastewater infrastructure needs over the next 20 years and America received a C+ in solid waste and a D+ in hazardous waste in 2017.
The next picture is of sun coming through a glass door. I really liked how this picture made me think of energy while looking at it. America’s overall grade in energy is a C+ this year rising from a D+ where it was at for a while.
The last photo is of a waterfall. I wanted to include a picture of water because drinking water is a huge part of our suffering infrastructure. Drinking water has had an overall grade of a D since 2009. There are $44.5 billion in drinking water infrastructure needs over the next 20 years.
In conclusion, i really liked this project because i got to learn more about an issue that is so important. It did take a lot of time to put together, but i appreciate the neatness and presentability. This deteriorating infrastructure impedes California’s ability to compete in an increasingly global marketplace so we need to do something about it.

Alfred 23 Harth’s art works and performances relating to the Korean Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) reflect a deeply layered and nuanced engagement with the physical, historical, and cultural realities of the DMZ area, extending far beyond simple representation. Since establishing his studio near the DMZ around 2007, Harth has explored the militarized border zone as an uncanny and charged site, embodying both intense geopolitical tension and paradoxically, a reserve of rare flora and fauna. Through his artistic practice, he discovered and documented military objects like trenches, bunkers, barbed wire fences with stone inserts and alarm bells, recognizing some as strange art objects in themselves. These findings formed a part of his broader artistic narrative, intertwining historical layers of Korean kingdoms (Silla and Goguryeo) with the contemporary division of North and South Korea symbolized by the DMZ.
Harth’s art is informed by archaeological curiosities he pursued in the vicinity, such as shards of celadon ceramics from ancient Korean dynasties found near the DMZ, and the memory of historic places like the wiped-out 20th-century river port Gorangpo. His work reflects an echo from his excursions near the DMZ rather than direct occurrences, capturing the borderline space as a cultural and political phenomenon. This is apparent in his multimedia installation “DUGOUT” (2013) exhibited at the Artsonje Center in Seoul, where he presents a playful yet serious reflection on the DMZ reality, combining military archival material, ancient history, and contemporary urban experiences. The installation embodies the concept proposed by director David Lynch that for every military installation, there should be a peaceful counterbalance.
Harth’s video artwork “Deconstruct Mental Zymotics” delves into the DMZ as a hyperreal cultural trance zone, layered with illusions and political theater, underscored by philosophical voices like Jean Baudrillard and Vilém Flusser. It highlights the DMZ as a vast open-air contemporary art museum surrounded by leisure spots and tourist attractions, illustrating the paradox between militarization and commodification. He further integrates the political situation of the Korean division into his music and performances, collaborating with Korean artists and producing works imbued with these themes, including his mother-of-pearl CDs “nu:clear re:actor” (2004) and “T_error” (2005) and performances along the DMZ spots guided by his unique perspective.
Moreover, Harth relates the contemporary Korean divide to his personal experience growing up in Cold War Germany, where he initially perceived nuclear threats as theatrical fakes, co-founding the group Duck and Cover to artistically comment on militarism. His art thus bridges personal and historical narratives across geopolitical borders, transforming military overkill into a poetic and conceptual meditation on division, conflict, history, and peace.
In summary, Alfred 23 Harth’s DMZ-related artworks and performances engage the border as a complex multi-dimensional space—melding military reality, cultural memory, ecological paradox, political critique, historical archaeology, and artistic interpretation into a rich, reflective body of work.

Dundalk overwhelm Bangor in All Ireland Final
by Roger Corbett
Bangor’s amazing run in the All Ireland Junior Cup came to an abrupt end when they were comprehensively beaten by Dundalk, eventually losing by 55-5.
Where do you start when trying to relate and absorb the events of Saturday’s final at Chambers Park? Firstly, congratulations to worthy winners Dundalk who nullified the Bangor attack, then went on to produce some stunning plays which racked up no less than 8 tries, each by a different player. For Bangor’s part, they were unable to respond to the intensity of Dundalk’s game, and lacked the cutting edge which their opponents used to great effect.
The day started full of promise, as the strong support from North Down made their way to Chambers Park in Portadown, knowing Bangor would be fielding their best team. Once again, the pundits had Bangor as the underdogs – just as they had done so in the previous three rounds! In confounding the experts earlier, Bangor produced some awesome performances against top quality opposition to get to the final. Dundalk had produced some convincing wins in the early rounds of the competition, but had struggled to get past CIYMS in the semi-final, just managing to squeeze ahead at the second time of asking. However, with a number of key players returning to the side in time for this game, they were now back at full strength and would be a formidable force to contend with.
Having won the toss, captain Jamie Clegg elected to play into the stiff wind in the first half. For the first 5 minutes, Bangor doggedly retained possession and tried to play their way into Dundalk’s half through a series of determined forward moves. However, little ground was made and, when possession was finally lost, the Dundalk back line produced a burst that simply cut through the Bangor defence resulting in an easy touch down under Bangor’s posts for a 7-0 lead.
Bangor stuck to their plan and slowly, but patiently, got their attack moving forward, eventually winning a penalty to the left of Dundalk’s posts, but Mark Widdowson’s kick into the wind drifted just wide of the mark.
The contrast in play between the two teams was becoming clear, with Bangor trying to keep the ball close while Dundalk were throwing it wide. The latter strategy was proving to be the more effective as, with 20 minutes gone, a quick back line move with players looping around resulted in an overlap on the right wing which gave a clear run in to again, score under the posts. A further 9 minutes later, they did it again and, although the Bangor defence had sensed the danger and moved across to cover it, their tackling let them down allowing Dundalk to get over in the right hand corner, taking their lead to 19-0.
By now, Bangor were trying to hang on until half time when they could regroup and come out with the wind at their backs. Dundalk, on the other hand were anxious to press home their advantage and give them a more comfortable lead. To Bangor’s credit, although camped on their own line for lengthy spells, they dug in and managed to hold on until the referee’s half time whistle.
As the teams reappeared from the dressing rooms, it was obvious Bangor were ringing the changes, particularly in the backs. With the wind advantage having lessened considerably, Bangor got the second half underway. It was now Dundalk’s turn to adopt the slow, steady approach, just as Bangor had done earlier. However, their more confident off-loading and support play was, once again, taking play deep into Bangor’s territory. Frustration at not being able to gain possession and take play out of their danger area eventually resulted in a yellow card for Clegg after a succession of penalties. Dundalk kicked the penalty to touch, won their lineout and drove for the line. Although initially held up by the Bangor defence, Dundalk’s repeated drives were eventually rewarded with another converted score, extending their lead to 26-0.
From the touchline, the Bangor faithful had felt that if their players had managed to score first in the second half, they may have been able to mount a fight-back and close the gap to their opponents. As it was, this Dundalk score simply bolstered their confidence and pushed Bangor deeper into trouble. With Bangor still a man down, Dundalk added to the score with a penalty and then another score in the corner. Everything was now working for the Leinster men, as even the difficult touchline conversion into the biting wind successfully split the posts, bringing the score to 36-0.
As the game entered the final quarter, and with Dundalk all but holding the cup, Bangor were now on the ropes. By contrast, the Dundalk players were in almost total control, and were not going to slow down now. In a 10 minute spell, they ran in a further 3 tries, making the scoreline 55-0. By now, any sense of dejection the Bangor supporters may have been feeling was now moved to feelings of sympathy for their players. However, pride was at stake and once again Bangor rallied as the game entered its final minutes. At last, the forwards got within striking distance of the Dundalk line and, although their repeated attacks were repelled, they finally managed to do what their opponents had done so effectively, and quickly passed the ball wide to Davy Charles. Even though they were 55 points ahead, the Dundalk defence made Charles work hard to drive through the tackles and score Bangor’s consolation try, bringing the final score to 55-5.
From Bangor’s point of view, the final score doesn’t tell the whole story of this competition. While the final may have resulted in a sad anti-climax for Bangor, the remarkable journey to get there will be remembered for some time. On the day, Dundalk were by far the better side, and Bangor would have to concede that their game was not up to the usual standard. However, there is no doubt the experience of competing at this level is something to relish and the goal now will be to secure a top four place in the league and try again next year.
Everybody at the club has nothing but the highest respect and praise for what has been achieved this year by not just the 1sts, but all the senior teams, and one poor result isn’t going to change that – the welcome at Upritchard Park for the returning players is testament to that. With that in mind, the players now need to put this disappointment behind them and provide the best possible response against a struggling Portadown side at home in the league next Saturday.

In front of a big crowd at Chambers Park on Saturday afternoon Dundalk delivered a stunning and ruthless display to see off the challenge of Bangor and capture the All Ireland Junior Cup title for the very first time.
Three first half tries had them firmly in control at 19-0 ahead having played with the elements at the Portadown venue during the first half and while the wind dropped somewhat after half time the Dundalk intensity most certainly didn’t as they cut loose scoring five more tries.
Dundalk returned to a heroes welcome at their Mill Road clubhouse on Saturday night after a display of pure brilliance throughout the afternoon.
Precision, pace and skill from the Louth men from start to finish left Bangor playing second fiddle for long periods.
