5:30 am came all to soon this morning, on my third early rise in a row the hours shift for daylight saving was not too welcome.
Low light photography is obviously not the iPhone's strong point, but the exposure is good, and the noise, off which there is rather a lot, makes for an interesting painterly effect.

Ribble Valley MP Nigel Evans has welcomed the re-opening of Clitheroe police station's front counter saying it "should never have closed" in the first place.
Clitheroe Police Station's front counter closed in March 2018, alongside a number of other front counters across the county as part of a series of cost-saving measures.
The station remained operational but with no public access.
But Police and Crime Commissioner Andrew Snowden, who pledged to reinstate Clitheroe's front counter before he was elected, has managed to secure its reopening for Monday morning (September 20).

Back in 2018, Bispham, Poulton, Kirkham, St Annes, Leyland, Ormskirk, Waterfoot, Darwen, Colne and Barnoldswick were among those that also closed in a bid to save £1million across the force.
Front counters are currently manned at Blackburn town centre, Blackburn Greenbank, Blackpool HQ, Blackpool town centre, Lancaster, Morecambe, Fleetwood, Preston, Skelmersdale, Chorley, Accrington, Burnley and Nelson.
Both before and since taking office in May this year, Lancashire's Police and Commissioner Andrew Snowden promised to ensure each borough area in Lancashire has at least one police station front counter open to the public and from Monday Clitheroe's is set to re-open.

Ribble Valley Labour Party members were out campaigning to keep Clitheroe Police Station public enquiry desk open.
A damp and wet Saturday did not deter the campaigners. In just two hours, over 300 residents and shoppers signed a petition protesting at Conservative government cuts to police budgets and the proposed closure of Clitheroe’s enquiry desk. Giles Bridge, Ribble Valley Labour Campaign Forum chair, said: “We had an excellent response to our petition. We heard first-hand accounts of the results of police budget cuts, including one resident who told us that her family had had to carry out the investigation themselves to track the criminals who had committed theft. The petition will be presented to Lancashire Police Commissioner Clive Grunshaw and MP Nigel Evans.” Meanwhile, leader of Ribble Valley Borough Council, Coun. Ken Hind, believes the rurual borough is vulnerable to crime and has called on Mr Grunshaw to end the policy of retreating from rural policing. He wants to see a fair distribution of police resources.

Point Reyes Lifeboat Station near Chimney Rock on Drakes Bay was built in 1927. The building replaced and earlier station built in 1890. The new station was built on the protected waters of Drakes Bay. The building was used by the Life Saving Service, and later the U.S. Coast Gurad until 1969. The building on the National Register of Historic Places. The building is also National Historic Landmark because it has the only operating marine railway for launching vessels on the Pacific Ocean. The pier, with the railway descending to the water was used to launched motorized boats from the baot house.
STORY: In 1960, on Thanksgiving Eve two Coast Guardsmen were lost in an ordinary call for assistance. After securing a disabled vessel in Bodega Bay, the two-man crew radioed their arrival time to the Life Boat Station. That was the last that was heard from the crew. In the morning, their boat was found grounded on Great Beach with the propellers still turning. What happened to the crew? The answer was lost with them, leaving a mystery in its place.
MARINE CORPS AIR STATION FUTENMA, OKINAWA, Japan—Cpl. Eric J. Hansen, right, receives flowers from a family member, left, of the woman who’s life he saved in Mihama at a restaurant outside of Marine Corps Air Station Futenma’s gate Jan. 4. Hansen, a Marine with Marine Air Support Squadron 2, noticed a group of people panicking while eating at a local restaurant with friends Kathy Linker, Lisa A. Verville and Maelo Cains. Once he realized what was going on, Hansen saved the woman’s life by performing the Heimlich maneuver to remove the food she had been choking on. “Everyone around was in shock and at a loss of actions. I started the Heimlich,” said Hansen. “I knelt down behind her and performed the Heimlich until small pieces of rice and meat shards came out.” MASS-2 is part of Marine Air Control Group 18, 1st Marine Aircraft Wing, III Marine Expeditionary Force.

Home energy saving kits are now available to borrow at all Dublin City Public Libraries.

The Home Energy Saving Kits have been developed by Dublin's energy agency Codema and contain six practical tools to help the public save energy at home. The items in the toolkits address three key areas of energy use in the home - space heating, hot water and electricity consumption - and can help identify common problems such as lack of insulation, poor ventilation and the appliances in the home that might be driving up electricity bills.

Recycled denim sourced from industrial waste denim and old pairs of jeans is being used to insulate Europe’s largest straw bale panel buildings at the new £4m Inspire Bradford Business Park located in the Eccleshill area of the city.
Supplied by Sheffield-based sustainable eco-product manufacturer Recovery Insulation, Inno-Therm is a thermal and acoustic insulation manufactured using fibres from waste denim.
Inno-Therm is an eco-friendly insulation as it doesn’t contain melamine, phenolic resins or other chemical irritants, meaning it is completely safe to handle and can be installed in a new build without the need for cumbersome safety equipment. The product meets the highest testing standards for fire and smoke ratings, fungi resistance and corrosiveness.
Once the installation is complete, the two structures will incorporate 700 rolls of Inno-Therm, which equates to over 1,200 sq m of insulation.
Recovery Insulation is a social enterprise and for every sq metre of insulation sold, the company donates a percentage of the profits to the Schools and Homes Energy Education Project in Sheffield, which supports renewable energy, fuel and money saving activities in local and national schools and community projects.
Tony Holdich, NCA chief executive and manager of the business park, said: “Using recycled denim to insulate the buildings at Inspire keeps in line with our ethos of utilising sustainable, environmentally-friendly products in order to meet with the business park’s green credentials. The performance of the Inno-Therm insulation exceeds that of more commonly used insulation materials such as rock and glass, whilst reducing the amount of waste textile products sent to landfill.
“The installation of the insulation is another key milestone in the progression of the Inspire site and takes us one step closer to completion, which is a very exciting prospect.”

photo.a.day / saving a 100 year old tree in san diego. My friend Filbert thinks it isn’t a big deal, but his concern and activism for a rare 100 year old Australian Eucalyptus tree located in hillcrest (only three exist in San Diego) has sparked debate and reconsideration for the destruction of this fine and lovely giant. I photographed the tree yesterday to document the “X”, and to give the image to activists who will use it for education awareness.
A tree which has stood for over a hundred years at the southeast corner of Richmond & Pennsylvania in San Diego may be saved from the city’s chainsaws. After seeing a big white X on the tree across the street Hillcrest native Filbert Vigil spoke out for the neighborhood landmark and has been able to make a difference.
Filbert outreached to the Hillcrest Town Council, Councilman Todd Gloria’s office, the city and KUSI’sMichael Turko who on Friday taped a piece that will be shown on Channel 9/51 this Wednesday (10/27). HTC board member Luke Terpstra spoke on behalf of the community thanking the city for giving the tree a reprieve until it can be “analyzed by several sets of educated eyes” according to city employee Mario Sierra.
Several neighbors (above) stopped by to share encouragement support for the tree as well as Mr. Sierra who said that an extension will be granted and no action will be taken to remove the tree while the Street Division determines if the tree meets the criteria for a tree protection designation. An update will be given at the November 9 HTC meeting. Everyone’s welcome to attend.

If you have little space at home, you must watch this ingenious furniture you necessarily.
Many of us have couch at home. Or the folding table for the living room. The parts are particularly stable or shapely unfortunately only in the rarest of cases. But these furniture pieces here are not only...
