In the first phase of the crisis, Stagecoach NorthWest were asked to provide a dozen new schools’ services, taking the infamous 20 mile diversion for what was once a ten or fifteen minute run. These buses were recognisable by their A4 paper alpha route identifications in the windscreens (designated A to L), well, that and the fact that they were full of schoolkids yawning more than they normally did, having risen much earlier than before. This bridge at Papcastle, near Cockermouth, over six miles up river from Workington became the only crossing and used here on 26 November by Alexander PS bodied Volvo B10M Stagecoach NW 20735 working extra schools connection route "I" on 26 November 2009.

This is only about the first half hour of the eclipse, I did not have my tripod on me so couldn’t take the photograph the rest so I put a few from the first half on the same page to make it more interesting :)
Going through old family photos, I came across this one my wife took in 1978. That’s me, apparently exhibiting my Napoleon phase. Why, I don’t know, having no recollection of this at all.
The camera around my neck was a 35mm Yashica viewfinder. This was just a few months before I bought my first SLR, the Pentax K-1000, which I still have, still love, and occasionally still use.
Around 1980, Greater Manchester Police command realised the force needed a new control room that could service the entire region.
Plans were drawn up to build the new structure on the same site of the force’s recently acquired headquarters in Stretford.
Pictured are some of the officers and staff who worked on the project.
The new building – said at the time to be the most advanced in Europe – was finally completed in 1986 and officially opened by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth in April of that year.
It was often referred to as Phase 2 because it was the second stage of development on the site.
The building continued to serve the force until it finally closed its doors in late 2019.

Everything about this bird says dark-phased RTH, but the size. I almost passed right by him because he was so dark and nearly the same size as a crow. I would really appreciate it if someone could confirm the id.

Chance does things well, as we say in French. As luck would have it, two days after the theme was announced, I attended a New Year Concert that was accompanied by two ballerinas, and the common thread of their performance was the evolution of two young girls into adulthood. They started as playing children, and progressively experienced all the different stages of a woman's life. As they evolved, they changed costumes, going from innocent white to more serious black, playing with accessories, flowers in their hairs, jewelleries, fans, bouquets of flowers... It was a beautiful, very moving performance, and perfectly fitting for the theme.

Since 1843, the Louvre has housed one of the most important groups of architectural sculptures in the world.
The forty-three panels of the Ionic frieze of the Temple of Artemis Leukophryene ("with white eyebrows") at Magnesia ad Maeandrum make up the largest group of architectural sculptures in the Louvre.
Forty-three panels and fragments in the Louvre's collections which, along with numerous other sculpted panels, decorated the frieze of the Temple of Artemis at Magnesia ad Maeanderum, southeast of Ephesus.
The temple was built in the early second century BC and consecrated to a local deity, Artemis Leukophryene, known only to the Magnesians.
Some people consider her to be the descendant of an ancient Phrygian mother goddess. Others compare her with the Artemis honored at Ephesus. She probably had the general features of Artemis (huntress, mistress and protector of animals, etc.) but was also considered the founder and benefactress of the town.
The reliefs depict an amazonomachy, or battle between Greek warriors and Amazons. The edifice was mentioned by Vitruvius as being the work of the architect Hermogenes who developed certain innovations circa 200-190 BC.
The amazonomachy is conventional and repetitive, with groups of Greek warriors and Amazons fighting on foot and on horseback. The iconography is still very similar to the patterns devised in the fourth century BC, as on the Mausoleum of Halicarnassus, although the proportions of the figures are less massive in the Magnesia frieze. The violence of the fighting is rendered by oblique lines giving rhythm to the composition - rearing horses, the positions of duelists, and wounded fighters collapsed on the ground.
The building was designed by the architect Hermogenes. Hermogenes favored eustyle, that is to say columns two and a quarter diameters apart. The pediment of the temple had openings to allow the goddess to appear. Finally, a continuous frieze nearly 175 meters long, whose reliefs are now in Paris, Istanbul, and Berlin, ran around the building - a feature hitherto unknown in Ionic temples in Asia Minor.

"The Musée du Louvre, or officially Grand Louvre — in English, the Louvre Museum or simply the Louvre — is one of the world's largest museums, the most visited art museum in the world and a historic monument. A central landmark of Paris, it is located on the Right Bank of the Seine in the 1st arrondissement (district). Nearly 35,000 objects from prehistory to the 19th century are exhibited over an area of 60,600 square metres (652,300 square feet).
The museum is housed in the Louvre Palace (Palais du Louvre) which began as a fortress built in the late 12th century under Philip II. Remnants of the fortress are still visible. The building was extended many times to form the present Louvre Palace. In 1682, Louis XIV chose the Palace of Versailles for his household, leaving the Louvre primarily as a place to display the royal collection, including, from 1692, a collection of antique sculpture.
The museum opened on 10 August 1793 (the first anniversary of the monarchy's demise) with an exhibition of 537 paintings, the majority of the works being royal and confiscated church property. Because of structural problems with the building, the museum was closed in 1796 until 1801. The size of the collection increased under Napoleon and the museum was renamed the Musée Napoléon. After the defeat of Napoléon at Waterloo, many works seized by his armies were returned to their original owners. The collection was further increased during the reigns of Louis XVIII and Charles X, and during the Second French Empire the museum gained 20,000 pieces. Holdings have grown steadily through donations and gifts since the Third Republic, except during the two World Wars. As of 2008, the collection is divided among eight curatorial departments: Egyptian Antiquities; Near Eastern Antiquities; Greek, Etruscan, and Roman Antiquities; Islamic Art; Sculpture; Decorative Arts; Paintings; Prints and Drawings.
By 1874, the Louvre Palace had achieved its present form of an almost rectangular structure with the Sully Wing to the east containing the square Cour Carrée and the oldest parts of the Louvre; and two wings which wrap the Cour Napoléon, the Richelieu Wing to the north and the Denon Wing, which borders the Seine to the south. In 1983, French President François Mitterrand proposed the Grand Louvre plan to renovate the building and relocate the Finance Ministry, allowing displays throughout the building. Architect I. M. Pei was awarded the project and proposed a glass pyramid to stand over a new entrance in the main court, the Cour Napoléon. The pyramid and its underground lobby were inaugurated on 15 October 1988. The second phase of the Grand Louvre plan, La Pyramide Inversée (The Inverted Pyramid), was completed in 1993."

Twenty people have been arrested following the latest phase of an operation to tackle the sale of stolen metal in Greater Manchester.
Earlier today, Wednesday 22 May 2013, Greater Manchester Police and British Transport Police executed a number of warrants at scrap metal dealers across the area as part of an intelligence-led Operation Alloy day of action.
Raids were executed at scrapyards in Rochdale, Bury, north Manchester, Oldham, Bolton and Salford.
The initiative also saw officers search the home addresses of those arrested as well as a number of partner agencies assist in the search of recycling yards and the recovery of potentially stolen metal.
Superintendent Craig Thompson, who leads Greater Manchester Police's Operation Alloy team, said: "Since Operation Alloy was launched more than two years ago, we have made huge inroads into tackling metal theft.
"However, despite a sharp drop in incidents of metal theft, we know there is still a culture that exists among thieves who believe they can off-load stolen metal onto scrapyards.
"Any scrapyard dealer who knowingly accepts stolen goods or pays cash for metal is propagating this cycle of criminality, creating a market for thieves for prosper, and that is exactly why we have taken this action today. If a burglar knows he can sell stolen metal to a rogue dealer, it will entice them into committing offences that can cause real hardship to businesses and victims.
"For example, if a pensioner has her boiler stolen in winter they will be unable to heat their home which could put their life in danger. We also know of businesses that have been forced to shell out hundreds of thousands of pounds to pay for repairs as a direct result of metal thieves. The knock-on effect of that is to put people's jobs on the line as businesses struggle to fund those repairs, so the human cost of what these rogue dealers are doing should not be underestimated.
"It is important to stress that of the 70 scrapyards across Greater Manchester, the vast majority have worked hand-in-hand with police and are fully compliant with all the legislation. They have helped us to create a hostile environment that has made it very difficult for thieves to off-load stolen metal.
"What today is all about is targeting those rogue dealers who are suspected of lining their own pockets and making huge swathes of cash by knowingly selling stolen metal. In terms of officer numbers and the sheer scale of the investigation, this is the biggest operation ourselves and British Transport Police have run which shows our determination to tackling metal theft."
When Operation Alloy was originally launched in August 2011 the region was recording up to 900 incidents of metal theft per month, a number which has now been reduced to about 200 per month.
T/Chief Superintendent Pete Mason, BTP's North West Area Commander, said: "Today's warrants are the culmination of a year-long joint investigation into the trade in stolen metal across Greater Manchester.
"Metal theft is a serious issue which has a major impact on the lives of those living and working in Greater Manchester.
"Whether thieves target railway cable, power lines, electrical substations or lead from homes or business, the impact felt by communities is marked and causes not only disruption but also financial loss and potential risk of harm.
"Thankfully, during the past 12 months, there have been significant reductions in the number of thefts recorded - due, in part, to legislative change which has gone hand in hand with enforcement activity under Operation Alloy."
T/Chief Supt Mason added: "Unfortunately, despite this recent success, the issue has not gone away and some scrap metal recyclers are keeping the market for stolen metal alive by continuing to flout the law and purchase metal with a 'no questions asked' attitude.
"This has to stop and GMP and BTP, together with partner agencies across the region, will continue to work together to take action against both thieves and unscrupulous scrap metal dealers."
Steve Cox, future network manager for Electricity North West, the company which owns and maintains the regional power network, said: "We have been working closely with Greater Manchester Police and British Transport Police and today's successful day of action highlights our commitment to crack down on this very serious crime.
"Metal theft not only affects us, your network operator, but also communities and residents, who could be left without power in their homes.
"These thieves, who are breaking into our substations or stealing from our overhead lines, are putting themselves and others in great danger and it causes thousands of pounds worth of damage.
"We are investing a lot of money and resources into putting a stop to metal theft in our region once and for all, but we would still urge people to get in touch if they hear or see anything suspicious."
