📜 The Sette Sale, or "Seven Halls," represent the interconnected corridors which formed the large cistern for the Baths of Trajan. In reality, however, the title is a misnomer as the cistern contained nine halls which would once have been filled with water from a branch of a nearby aqueduct. Nevertheless, this impressive structure had a capacity of 8 million-plus liters by some estimates, was built contemporaneously with the imperial thermae it fed, and was located slightly uphill some 75 meters from the baths themselves.

A beautiful brown and white cotton fabric in a modern scroll print. There is a lining of cotton batting underneath for added softness. It is surounded with a border of pink gimp ribbon and a pink satin ribbon crosses over the top of the case. The case is finished off with a brown wire circle accent.

This is a photograph from the Castlepollard 5KM Road Race and Fun Run 2014 which was held in Castlepollard, Co. Westmeath, Ireland on Wednesday 13th August 2014 at 20:00. The race is hosted by North Westmeath Athletic Club. The race has grown in stature and popularity over the years and is now one of the most well attended road races in the midlands. The race offers prizes in all categories. Castlepollard 5KM Road Race attempts to support young runners and walkers by organising a range of underage races around the town square before the adult race at 20:00. Profits from the race go towards grassroots athletics in the region - North Westmeath Athletics, Schools Cross Country, and local community games.

The Castlepollard 5KM can be considered as the final major race in summer road racing in the midlands as with the fading light of the late summer comes less opportunities to hold races in the evening time. Castlepollard is a small town located in North County Westmeath amongst the lakes of Lough Lene and Lough Derravagh. One of the enduring symbols of the Castlepollard 5KM is the tireless work of Andy MacEoin of North Westmeath AC who has been a visitor to almost every road race in the Midlands and beyond over the past number of months to publicize the event. Many of the participants tonight will have seen Andy's strategically placed advertising signs around other road race routes. Certainly this work, and that of many other members of North Westmeath AC, has paid off well.
The race begins near the center of the town square and proceeds directly out the R395 towards Coole and Edgeworthstown. The first KM is flat and quick allowing the field to spread out. The race then enters the Tullynally Castle estate and proceeds up the tree-lined avenue. The gardens, like the castle are on a grand scale, taking in nearly 12 acres. This allows the race to make a big loop of the gardens with a quick downhill stretch followed by a sharp climb before the race rejoins it's outgoing path for the final 1.5KM of the race. The final 1100M from the gate of the Castle grounds to the finish is as the first - fast and flat and allows for a great finish passing the GAA grounds with finish line just outside the local Fire Station.
One of the show pieces of the race landscape is Tullynally Castle. The name Tullynally is an adaption of 'Tulaigh an Eallaigh' – the Hill of the Swan. The hill overlooks Lough Derravaragh, the legendary lake of the Children of Lir who were turned into swans. Tullynally Castle is still a family home to this day. Details of visitor times and other information is available on the links below.
This year over 450 participants took part in the race. This represented another great attendance. Last year's Castlepollard 5KM set the bar very high for future races with a record participation of just under 470 on the night. The race in 2013 showed an increase of over 100 participants from the previous record of 366 set at the 2012 event. It goes without saying that the Castlepollard 5KM has become one of the "must do" road race events in the midlands. Everything that is good about club road racing in Ireland can be found here.
We have a large set of photographs from the event today. The full set is accessible at: www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/14714159280/ - They were taken at the start and finish of the event.

I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?
As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:
►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera
►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set
►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone
►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!
You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.
Don't like your photograph here?

Fantasy scrolls were hand painted by me to enhance my morning ritual. I love the turquoise and rust and adore my black vanity and mirror.
a pianola scroll. (air blows through the holes and the piano appears to play a nifty little tune on its own).. lol.
This design is taken from the Hoitsu scroll stitched by professionals at Kurenai-kai (check out www.nuido.blogspot.com for details of the scroll). This is just a section and has two large iris in front of a stream. Am blogging on this as I progress so check it out if you are interested.

This is a photograph from the 5th annual Craughwell 10 Mile Road Race which took place in Craughwell Village, Co. Galway, Ireland on Sunday 23rd March 2014 at 13:00. The 'Craughwell 10' has grown quickly to become not just one of Connaught's best known and attended road races but one of Ireland's best road races. Rather uniquely for road races in Ireland today the Craughwell 10 Mile road race offers a fully traffic free route for participants. The fast primarily flat course brings participants on the network of rural country roads to the west of Craughwell village. This year's event attracted a record number of over 650 participants building on the 600+ finishers from last year's race (results available below).

The organisation team of Craughwell AC and a huge team of volunteers from the local community deserve great praise and congratulations on the excellent work that they put into making the Craughwell 10 such an outstanding success. A race of this size is a mammoth undertaking and it's flawless organisation is a tribute to the volunteer work behind the scenes.
Route Description
The race starts in Craughwell Village and then heads west on country roads. The route takes a right turn after 1KM and heads north towards Caheradine. The route then takes a left and heads west again towards the N18. After 4 miles the race takes another left (goo.gl/maps/khTi4) heading south. Just before 6 miles another left turn brings the race back towards Craughwell village. This leaves the runners with a straight run to the finish area from here and the finish in the Primary School. There was a stiff cold breeze at different parts of the course but for the most part there was good stretches of tail winds also. There were water stations at two points in the course.
The AAI County Galway 10 mile Road Race Championships took place in conjunction with the race today which ensured that there was great competition amongst Co. Galway based clubs at all categories.
The spread of refreshments after the race was incredible. Every taste was catered for. The organisers were thoughtful enough to include a wide range of gluten free goodies for participants after the race.

Due to the large area of the Barony of the Far West {Japan, Korea, Guam, and sometimes China} and the small SCA population {itnierant military and teachers of English} we rely heavily on pre-made scrolls we just print out, put names on and paint. Still, I enjoy the painting.
An old schoolmate emailed me the other day to tell me her mother had an old tool to give away. She couldn't tell what it was, but that her father used to make toys with it. I went to see it this morning and brought it home. It is a Wizard 14" scroll saw bought many years ago from Western Auto, mounted on a board with a 1/4 HP Emerson Electric motor. I will clean it up and use it in my shop.

Besuch der Zentralen Gedenkstätte für die Opfer von Krieg und Gewaltherrschaft (Neue Wache). Die Königin legte an der Neuen Wache, der Zentralen Gedenkstätte für die Opfer von Krieg und Gewaltherrschaft, einen Kranz nieder. Am Eingang wurde sie von Vizeadmiral Joachim Rühle und einer Ehrengarde empfangen. Während Ihre Majestät im stillen Gedenken verweilte, spielte ein Trompeter "Der gute Kamerad", ein Lied aus dem 19. Jahrhundert, das im Trauerzeremoniell der Bundeswehr eine Rolle spielt.
Die klassizistische Neue Wache ist seit 1993 die Zentrale Gedenkstätte der Bundesrepublik Deutschland für die Opfer von Krieg und Gewaltherrschaft. Sie wurde 1816 nach einem Entwurf von Karl Friedrich Schinkel als Wachhaus für preußische Soldaten gebaut und diente ab 1931 als Ehrenmal, zunächst für die Weimarer Republik und später für die Sowjetunion. Im Inneren des Gebäudes befindet sich direkt unter einem Rundfenster ein einzelnes Objekt: eine vergrößerte Kopie der Skulptur Mutter mit totem Sohn von Käthe Kollwitz. Die Bildhauerin schuf dieses Meisterwerk nach dem Verlust ihres Sohns im Ersten Weltkrieg.

Queen Elizabeth II visiting Berlin, 2015
Visit to the Central Memorial to the Victims of War and Tyranny (Neue Wache). The Queen laid a wreath at the Neue Wache, the Central Memorial to the Victims of War and Tyranny. She was received at the entrance by Vice Admiral Joachim Rühle and a guard of honor. While Her Majesty lingered in silent remembrance, a trumpeter played "Der gute Kamerad", a song from the 19th century that plays a role in the Bundeswehr's mourning ceremonial.
The neo-classical Neue Wache has been the Federal Republic of Germany's central memorial to the victims of war and tyranny since 1993. It was built in 1816 to a design by Karl Friedrich Schinkel as a guardhouse for Prussian soldiers and served as a memorial from 1931, first for the Weimar Republic and later for the Soviet Union. Inside the building, directly under a round window, there is a single object: an enlarged copy of the sculpture Mother with Dead Son by Käthe Kollwitz. The sculptor created this masterpiece after the loss of her son in the First World War.

I found these in an old writing desk. I like the two hidden ones, they're like shadows of the others. But I think I like this shot, I like the simplicity of it anyway.
No idea what was going on here, but obviously a political protest. The cloth scroll contained a list of names and dates.
Back to Florence for a while!
The Florence Baptistry, Florence day 3 of our Cosmos tour, October 2, 2012.
The Florence Baptistry or Battistero di San Giovanni (Baptistry of St. John) is a religious building in Florence (Tuscany), Italy, which has the status of a minor basilica.
The octagonal Baptistry stands in both the Piazza del Duomo and the Piazza di San Giovanni, across from the Duomo cathedral and the Giotto bell tower (Campanile di Giotto). It is one of the oldest buildings in the city, built between 1059 and 1128. The architecture is in Florentine Romanesque style. Florentine style has not seen the spread of the Pisan Romanesque or Lombard, however, its influence was decisive for the subsequent development of architecture, as it formed the basis of which drew Francesco Talenti, Leon Battista Alberti, Filippo Brunelleschi and the other architects who created the ' Renaissance architecture . The Church of the Holy Apostles is a clear example, it announced for its spaciousness, as noticed by Giorgio Vasari, Renaissance themes. Therefore, in the case of the Florentine Romanesque, one can speak of "proto-renaissance", but at the same time an extreme survival of the late antique architectural tradition. Just from the pursuit of an ideal "classic" placed out of time, he creates difficulty in dating the Baptistery, similar to what occurs for other Italian medieval monuments of strong classical style, like the church of St. Alexander in Lucca or the Basilica of St. Salvatore in Spoleto with the nearby Temple of Clitumnus .
The Baptistry is renowned for its three sets of artistically important bronze doors with relief sculptures. The south doors were done by Andrea Pisano and the north and east doors by Lorenzo Ghiberti. The east pair of doors were dubbed by Michelangelo "the Gates of Paradise".
The Italian poet Dante Alighieri and many other notable Renaissance figures, including members of the Medici family, were baptized in this baptistry. In fact, until the end of the nineteenth century, all Catholic Florentines were baptized here.

This is another scroll painting done by an artist from Medinipur district in West Bengal. He also did paint an entire sari with scroll painting. My friends Maura Hurley is working with some of the artists from this place. My other friend Shubhendu Choudhury is working with a group of artists and developing a fair trade business on hand painted saris, stoles wall hanging etc.

The only time I use the PEDAL POWERED SCROLL SAW is to cut out the drawers on the Jewelry Chests. I use the table saw on the rest of the Jewelry Chest. My brother and I made the power source for the table saw. When I started needing a scroll saw, I made one to fit onto the same power source as the table saw. I just unbolt the table saw and lift it off the power source and set the scroll saw in place, then bolt it on. I don’t use the vacuum with it.

This exercise is meant to expand the thinking about guidelines even in Photoshop and therefore CorelDraw because of the sophisticated layers, sublayers and the dedicated guidelines in CorelDraw. It's always sad to see how much software is written without the study or even regard of others' applications. I don't use CorelDraw that much but every once in a while it is absolutely necessary to do some prep illustration in Corel and then drop a tiff into a Photoshop layer because of the extensive time element that can be trivialized in Corel.
The subject of the lesson is generating a paper scroll that can have text applied later. The concept was invented by a glassblower I know, James P. Clarke, Here is something like what I helped him with. It is a good carrier for a discussion of more sophisticated guidelines or even cheating guidelines:
The Scroll, Corel file is a demonstration of setting up advanced guidelines on the dedicated Guidelines layer in Corel. All objects applied to that dedicated layer will assume the assigned color and simple lines will assume the snap properties. The scroll guides were generated on a separate layer and then moved and dropped onto and become a sub-object on Corels Guidelines layer. Otherwise, create your own Guidelines layer in Photoshop.
Use the guideline scroll to develop your own paper object, color, texturize and antique it, like in the Scroll file.
The Scroll, Corel file shows the results of adding a text block, then an Envelope object to the text block and adding nodes to stretch and warp the enveloped text block. It is difficult to get the text to lay out realistically otherwise but you can handle it however you want.
Psalms 1:1-6 (ANIV)
1 Blessed is the man
who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked
or stand in the way of sinners
or sit in the seat of mockers.
2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord,
and on his law he meditates day and night.
3 He is like a tree planted by streams of water,
which yields its fruit in season
and whose leaf does not wither.
Whatever he does prospers.
4 Not so the wicked!
They are like chaff
that the wind blows away.
5 Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment,
nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.
6 For the Lord watches over the way of the righteous,
but the way of the wicked will perish.

Unspecified in Bible Text. I have set the scene in the early afternoon.
LIGHTING NOTES:
The sun is high on the right (west) casting shadows to the left.
CHARACTERS PRESENT:
A Hebrew man reading the word of God, on a scroll in hand.
A farmer in the middle distance is winnowing grain: using the wind to remove the chaff from the grain.
RESEARCH/ADDITIONAL NOTES:
I decided to set this scene in the Valley of Doves (aka the Valley of Wind), between Mount Arbel and Mount Nitai. Although the valley is not mentioned in the bible, it is entirely possible that Jesus and his followers may have walked here on their way between the sea of Galilee and Nazareth. The Valley of Doves/Wind runs east to west and leads to the Mediterranean Sea. Air from the Mediterranean can cross the Sea of Galilee here leading to the squalls and sudden storms that the Sea of Galilee was famous for. One such storm is recorded in Matthew chp 08 and/or Mark chp 04.
This scene shows a man sitting on the ground below an oak tree, reading the word of God; “his delight is in the law of the Lord, and on his law he meditates day and night” (verse 2). The Psalm says that sort of person is like a tree planted by streams of water... of the sort the man is sitting under!
Contrast the fate of that man with the way of the wicked, from verse 04...”They are like chaff that the wind blows away.” The farmer, who is winnowing grain in my scene, provides a visual reference of being “blown away like chaff on the wind”. Chaff is the name given to the husks of corn or other seed, and pits of unwanted material (leaves, stalks, etc) that a farmer separates from the grain. The act of winnowing is where a farmer uses a folk to throwing grain stalks into the air, where the wind will catch the lighter chaff and blow it sideways, to collect downwind. The heavier grain will fall sooner to the ground, and be gathered up by the farmer.
