Community leaders joined together to launch a national initiative promoting community cohesion and unity.
‘We Stand Together’ encourages people to come together as one and celebrate their differences in order to build a safer and stronger United Kingdom.
The initiative has been launched following recent global events which have caused concern within communities across Greater Manchester.
Chief Constable Sir Peter Fahy said: “Greater Manchester has a long and proud tradition of celebrating differences and sets a positive example to the rest of the world, which we should be immensely proud of.
“Recent attacks in Paris and Denmark have inevitably caused tension and fear within our communities and it is more important than ever that we come together as one and send a strong unified message that any attempt to create disharmony or fear is futile.
“We all have a responsibility to encourage community cohesion and I am calling on people to stand together against hatred and intolerance and show their support for each other during this difficult time”.
Councillor Bernard Priest, Manchester City Council's deputy leader, said: "Mancunians are rightly proud to live in a diverse and thriving city where people respect and tolerate each other, but there is no escaping the fact that incidents in other parts of the world can have an impact on community tensions here.
"Now, it is more important than ever for our communities to show the world that we are continuing to stand together, despite the troubling times we are living through, and demonstrate that hatred and intolerance have no place in our city."
Police and Crime Commissioner Tony Lloyd said: “Here in Greater Manchester, as across the land, we have strong, cohesive communities where we celebrate our diversity. But we should never take for granted the fact we live in a safe, tolerant part of the world as there are always those who would seek to drive us apart. By standing together we send out a clear and strong message that we celebrate and cherish our inclusive society, as well as recognising that we have a shared responsibility to work to safeguard it.”
Community leaders will be urging members of the public to use social media to spread the message of standing together using the hashtag #WeStandTogether
To report an incident of hate crime, please contact Greater Manchester Police on 101 or 999 in an emergency. Alternatively, please report online to True Vision (www.report-it.org.uk) or use the True Vision app.

Offical Metz manual :
The battery housing must not be fitted with NiCad batteries ! The contacts of the battery housing are only intended for alkaline manganese batteries.The lower resistance of NiCad batteries means that more current can flow, and this can damage the flashgun.The Nicad Battery PAck 45-40 has special contacts which do not allow the flow of high currents.
I find the dramatic difference between inside and outside interesting. It certainly mirrors the modern society and the schism between the haves and the have- nots.

Fairies In The Fire
By Paul McCann
Round the little fire in the middle of the night,
something strange was happening ,
it was a rare sight to see the fairies playing
harps, fiddles, and pipes .
They danced the night away
with flames for party lights .
The flames leapt from the fire and danced with
all of them ,
jumping up and spinning round and around again .
The glow within the fire began to flicker out ,
the sparks had lost their crackle up the chimney spout .
One by one the fairies jumped into the fireplace,
just like that, they all disappeared without a trace .
The magic light had left but ashes for the day ,
dawn crept through the place where fairies of fire play
Het verschil tussen arm en rijk is groot aan de Bulgaarse kust, al valt het op deze foto nog enigszins mee. De huizen daarachter zijn nog niet helemaal af, maar er wonen al wel mensen in. Er staat nog een Audi S8 geparkeerd (die waren in de uitverkoop geloof ik) en daarvoor liggen de mensen te zonnen aan het zwembad.

The difference between a 24mm and a 28mm focal length is crucial when your back is to a hedge. I couldn't get far enough back with the Fuji GSW690III to properly frame the image, while with the 24-70mm on an R5 I could.

I haven't been writing as much here in this little description area, I know. I've been trying to blog more. I hope you have been joining me there. But I'd like to give you a few words with this photo.
A few months ago, I took a picture in the same spot as the photo above. I mean, I've taken a lot of photos in this same spot, but there's one in particular. If you look in my self-portrait set, you'll find it. It's one of the most honest and raw photos i've ever taken. Not just of myself, but of anyone. I'm proud of it but it's hard for me to look at, because I can see exactly what I wanted to capture: the way I felt. It was, as I later wrote, pouring out my eyes.
You may notice a different look in the shot here. You may know what it is. You may guess. You may not care. Any of those are fine with me.
I will just say this: Life brings a lot of bad sometimes. Not because we deserve it. We can hope for good all we want, for the bad to be gone. That won't change things. All we can do is work through the bad, wait it out, do the best we can.
And sometimes life brings good. Not because we deserve it. We can wish for more of it, but why? Instead, we should grab a hold of what we get and celebrate the hell out of it.
These days, I'm celebrating. What a difference a few months can make. You have no idea.
Nu Image: Surgical and Dental Implant Center
May 29, 2015
Raleigh, NC
The difference was "night and day" when the primary office for Nu Image: Surgical and Dental Implant Center in Raleigh, North Carolina, installed LEDtronics' LED Flat Panel Lights to replace their old-technology fluorescent tube lights in their parabolic troffers.
Both patients and staff alike were very excited when they came in the next day to see how bright the office was. "It actually made the rooms look like they changed color – It made the colors pop," says Kourosh Neshat, who works in Marketing for Nu Image.
The LED Flat Panels were installed in the surgery rooms as well as Dr. Kevin Neshat's office. Dr. Neshat loves the new lights, as they greatly improve visibility and liven up the room. "It makes a very bright and vibrant atmosphere there," says Kourosh.

some sort of video effect that does in real time? or after the fact on a shot? this is available already and i'm wasting my time?
trying out a couple simple filters for with open frameworks video grabber. hoping to transfer to movies to avoid the problems with the isight camera autobalancing itself quite frequently.
Based on the wonderful design made by Ixpia for Akamai, In created my own take on the legendary master of wisdom. The body-frame was based off, but not taken directly from the original. Enjoy.

Seen here at Arriva's Tavistock Street, Dunstable depot on a cold morning in February 2001 are several different vehicles. A native Alexander bodied Leyland Olympian G657 UPP is seen being run up for a day's service whilst alongside an ex-County Bus Leyland Lynx H258 GEV and a Routemaster WLT 966 are seen stored. The reasons for the Routemaster being there are not clear although photographic evidence on Flickr indicates that it has been re-registered LSL 827 and converted to a non-psv computer bus by the following year.
This is what the difference looks like between the finished image of the West Side Park and the original image. Unfortunately I forgot I cropped the final image so things don't really match up...
Scavenge Challenge - Feb 2013 - Scavchal #1 - Spot the differences! - Make two shots using the same framing with 8 differences (8 - no more, no less) such as added items, items removed, items turned left or right, tipped upside down, etc. and post the two images as a diptych. Differences should be large enough to see without enlarging the photos excessively.
Solutions should be submitted to the photographer by Flickrmail ONLY (do not post them in comments!) At the end of the month or when a number of correct solutions have been received, the photographer should post a list of the differences with the image.
113 Pictures in 2013 - #16 - Spot the difference (present two images in a diptych with one or more differences to see if others can spot the differences).
In the spirit of good fun - please send me your answers by Flickrmail - not in comments!
Today it's my turn to pick a group for FGR, so I chose Spot the Difference - with the added bonus that these pics can also go into the Diptychs group.
Can you spot the differences? Have a look at the large version and then put notes on the ones you can see.
I may do another version later today if I get more time.

My Father, Thomas Edwin Adams, June 28, 1920 – May 13, 2010
I love you dad!
Thomas Edwin Adams, Jr. passed away peacefully at his daughter''s home in Centreville, Virginia on May 13, 2010 with his family at his bedside.
Son to Thomas Edwin Adams, Sr. and Agnes Kennedy Adams, Tom Adams was born on June 28, 1920 in Washington, D.C. A proud native Virginian, he graduated at age 15 from Fairfax High School class of 1936. He was an excellent athlete and an accomplished tenor. Married in 1942, he was the devoted and loving husband of 44 years to Mary Ellen (Estes) Adams, who passed on Oct.19, 1987.
Tom Adams graduated from American University in Washington, D.C., with a B.A. in History and Government in 1946. He attended Washington & Lee University Law School in Lexington, VA. A veteran of WWII, Tom Adams received the Bronze Star for Bravery and the Purple Heart while serving in the Pacific campaign with the 17th Infantry Regiment as a platoon leader and company commander. During the Korean conflict he served in the 2nd Battalion of the 15th Infantry, 3rd Division as a rifle platoon leader. Before retiring from the U.S. Army in 1967, Lt. Col. Adams served as legal officer for the 15th Infantry Regiment in Fort Benning, GA, as Boards and Investigations Officer at Ft. Myer in Arlington, VA and as military historian at the Pentagon.
Tom Adams pursued a second career on Capitol Hill as the Legislative and Special Assistant to U.S. Congressman Joel T. Broyhill (10th Congressional District) of Virginia and for U.S. Congressman W.C. (Bill) Wampler Sr. (9th Congressional District). He retired from politics in 1984 following his service on the staff of the U.S. House Agriculture Committee. Tom Adams worked to pass legislation to create and fund the Washington Metro rail system and to fund the Virginia-Maryland Regional College of Veterinary Medicine. He was the principal staff architect of the agriculture title of the 1977 Food and Agriculture Act. Tom Adams'' retirement after 42 years of Federal service appeared in the Feb. 1, 1984 U.S. Congressional Record.
Tom and Mary Adams retired to Highland County, Virginia to start another chapter of their lives enjoying grandchildren and great grandchildren, their children, and many family and friends of the surrounding mountains and Shenandoah Valley.
Tom Adams will be remembered as a Virginian, an American, a devote husband and father, and as a man that instilled character and comfort in those he touched.
Tom Adams is survived by his eight children: Ellen Price, Susan Stanhope, Thomas Edwin, Laura Lewis, Elizabeth Kennedy, Samuel Glenn, Joseph Estes, and James Benjamin, 18 grandchildren, 12 great grandchildren, and siblings Robert L. Adams, Betty A. Baker, and Joan A. Vipperman. Tom Adams was also pre-deceased by loving brothers Bert and John, and sister Anne Gresham.
I have updated my Art-Craft model after some thought, making it a little more difficult to get to fine art from a very craft operation like a factory robot operation (still programmed by a highly skilled human, though), I also added a 'juvenile' area, the place where we all start from when we are born.
To make it slightly less like a graph and more like the image in my mind, I have added some graphics - the organisation of Craft, the unmapped forest of Art, and the natural ascent into skill (by balloon).
