I tested the sweep panorama function with my newer HX9V. It works very easy and i also had fun :-))

Here are a couple of Black Lives Matter murals in downtown Raleigh that were created after the death of George Floyd. The local artists who created them have a powerful message to share about how black lives matter, the importance of having your voice heard and expressing the desire for justice and equal protection under the law. These can be found on Hillsborough Street.

Combating climate change and making the planet greener and cleaner is an issue for everyone. Climate change is no longer a distant, futuristic scenario, but an immediate threat. How times have changed since World Environment Day was launched by the United Nations General Assembly 36 years ago. We wonder if they considered then that today climate change, global warming, natural disasters and the effects of global climate change --- deforestation, desertification, flooding, sea-level rise, beach erosion and other environmental impacts would have such an impact on world hunger and poverty.

  

Climate change is expected to put an estimated 50 million more people at risk of hunger and water stress by 2020. By 2050 a third of the people on Earth may lack a clean, secure source of water. It poses a serious threat to the achievement of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), especially during a period of global economic recession, when resources needed to cope with climate change may be reassigned.

 

Poor people in developing countries are the most vulnerable to the effects of climate change. The negative impacts on their crop yields are already being felt and will be increasingly severe. Climate change is likely to affect forest expansion and migration, and exacerbate threats to biodiversity resulting from land use/cover change and population pressure. Marine and coastal ecosystems are likely to be affected by sea level rise and temperature increases. Human health will also be adversely affected. Rising temperatures and rainfall variability had led to more climate-induced diseases and heat stress. Experts predict climate change-related stresses -- including disasters, food and water shortages and conflicts over scarce resources -- could permanently uproot 200 to 250 million people by mid-century. In many countries defence forces might find themselves torn between humanitarian relief operations and guarding their borders against climate refugees, as climate change and scarce resources, forcing millions of climate refugees across the borders.

 

United Nations demographers estimate that the world’s population will grow from today’s 6.7 billion people to somewhere between 7.8 billion and 10.8 billion by 2050. The solutions of global warming, climate refugees, extreme poverty and high levels of population growth will require entirely new relationships between the world’s human and natural systems. The world has yet to figure out how it will deal with global warming, changing rainfall patterns, melting glaciers, rising sea-levels and climate refugees.

 

According to new technique and research our planet's continents were arranged 2.5 billion years ago. We are homo consumens of the earth and very young specie still trying to understand the mysteries of nature and in our ignorance we have destroyed it. Climate change offers humanity no second chances. Only rich countries can break the deadlock crippling international climate negotiations and prevent the world lurching into climate disaster. We should find a way to measure the general well-being of the people and planet rather than just raw economic growth.

Like the carbon footprint, water footprints are one of the latest methods scientists and policy makers are using to assess humanity's impact on the planet. And now businesses are starting to use water footprinting as well.

It was never my story to tell I am not the person suffering. But that doesn't mean I can't show support for the people who do suffer

It's not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters.

Every Child Matters is a slogan and message used to honour the innocent lives lost. It symbolises that every child is important, including the ones who lose their lives and the adults who are still healing from their difficult time at residential schools.

It's nice to see a small neighbourhood convenience store in East York standing up for social justice.

All my good friends live down Freeport Boulevard

Yes all my good friends live down Freeport Boulevard

They get into trouble, no matter where they are

Sometimes we drink whiskey, sometimes we drink wine

Sometimes we drink whiskey, sometimes we drink wine

As long as we’re drinking

we’ll be feeling just fine...

"It's the little things that matter

As you travel down the road.

And there's joy and great contentment

In sharing someone's load.

To you it's such a little thing

And hardly worth the time,

But, brother, it can mean a lot

With a long hard hill to climb.

Our lives are filled with ups and downs;

More downs than ups, it seems.

And often times a helping hand

Brings closer still our dreams.

If there be that which we may do

To lighten someone's way.

Let's do it, then, and thank the Lord

This was our lucky day."

~ L. Noyes

Created with fd's Flickr Toys.

Jar Jar Minifigure is tired to be "mistreated" by the entire Lego universe so he was thinking (hey wait, he can think?! Lol ) about revenge.

 

One day, by skill and intelligence ( very unlikely) or by luck (very likely) he was able to contact his Action Figure version from a parallel universe.

 

The Jar Jar Action Figure was obviously mistreated by every other figure lol and so they two Jar Jar had an idea ( it takes two Jar Jar to have an idea, since alone they can't have one lol ) to exact some revenge.

 

The action figure reached the Lego universe when he thought his larger size would have proved a threat for other Minfigures.

However he runs into Lex Luthor and his high tech mech.

 

Since now Lex is not "completely" a bad guy (still egomaniac, of course) he soon decides to act like a hero and give the oversized Jar Jar a lesson :)

 

Jar Jar: "Mesa Bombad Godzilla! Mesa boom everything! Mesa.."

 

Lex's Mech grabs Jar Jar.

 

Lex: " Your existence offends the very concept of intelligence and stupidity is the greatest crime! Beside I have no time for galactic annoyances on steroid. So hold still while I test my new weapon on your empty head."

 

In the end Jar Jar' size matters not :) He is always treated like that lol :)

 

Like I always say there is no real hate toward any character, creator of characters or actors who played any character. This is just a little parody made for fun :)

 

May the Brick be with You :)
