Greater Manchester Police’s Chief Constable Peter Fahy is joined by Inspector Andrew Sutcliffe at an event to celebrate over 1000 homes across Trafford having had their security improved as part of a six-month project.
Mr. Fahy thanked those involved in securing the 1041 homes at a special meting at the Force's headquarters on 20 May.
Under the Safer Homes scheme, police community support officers identified the vulnerable properties, surveyed them and highlighted any security issues. They then offered the homeowners the chance to have security devices fitted free of charge.
During the project, Timpson’s Locksmiths fitted many different security measures such including -
949 door chains,
298 door viewers,
201 tower bolts,
71 mortise bolts,
154 door locks,
317 window locks and
34 patio bolts
Each home was also given a pack containing crime reduction and fire safety advice as well as a discount coupon for the ‘How To Avoid Becoming A Target For Crime’ guide.
Participants were asked at the end of the project if they felt safer as a result of it. 83 per cent of those asked said that they felt more secure in their homes.
The Greater Manchester High Sheriff’s Police Trust funded the project via the Home Office’s Safer Homes fund.
Chief Superintendent Mark Robert of Greater Manchester Police’s Trafford Division said: “We always encourage residents to take care of their personal property and to keep it safe and through this campaign we can make sure we are providing the support they need to do this.
“We work in close partnership with other Safer Trafford Partnership members to make sure that Trafford is one of the safest places to live in Greater Manchester. Through schemes like this we can deter criminals and keep it that way.”

I went to get a burrito yesterday and as I pulled up to park, this security guard was writing his report of a car crashing in to Shear Cuts in Rohnert Park, Ca. The driver who backed in to the parking space, thought she was in drive when she put her foot on the gas pedal. No bodily injuries to the driver.

When a security guard falls asleep on the job is he risking job security? He woke up shortly after i took this. I think he could feel my prying eyes.

Viktor still has nightmares about the time he fell asleep during his shift and let thieves get away with two of the best yachts at the club.
Now you can find him begging for bits of stale Wonderbread in back-streams.

To prepare for an upcoming workshop, I'm focusing on upcycling paper for my thing-a-day projects this week. I've wanted to try to make paper beads out of security envelopes for a while. I love the different patterns on the inside of them.
I got out of my car and entered a store on the other side of this security guard. When I was finished, I returned to my car, pulled out a camera with a 300 mm lens, and took about half a dozen pictures of him.
I never saw him look in a different direction -- only where he's gazing here.

I love long exposures, everything to do with night time, the dark, sunrise and sunset.
I like to take pictures mainly at night , sometimes during the day and in dull and fading light and I will sometimes display the time and date the picture was taken too.
I tend to take pictures of Light trails, Motorway traffic, Street lights, Buildings, Landscapes, Bokeh, Night bokeh and Hexagonal Night Bokeh in and around the North East of England.
All of my pictures are 100% natural and untouched in every way without ever been Photo shopped or altered or messed about with in anyway whatsoever, No multi layered photography, No HDR's and No image manipulation of any kind, all of my pictures look just the way they did when I saw them at the time of taking and I'm VERY PROUD of that.
I don't do any photo processing at all, I don't even own any photo software.
All of my starbursts are all 100% natural without using any filters or anything else, as is all my bokeh, night bokeh and hexagonal night bokeh, its all natural, no funny gimmicks at all.
I don't do anything with my pictures apart from take them and then upload them , 99.99999% of my pictures don't even get cropped , they are all 100% natural and untouched and then uploaded.
All of my pictures are copy right, © All rights reserved, you MAY NOT use any of my pictures without my written consent, you also MAY NOT change, alter, adjust or rearrange my pictures in anyway what so ever.

The Kiwicon name tags are the best I've ever seen. It's always a surprise what crazy thing the Crüe comes up with. This year it was floppy disks. Regular attendees and staff got the small 3 1/2-inch ones where as speakers and the Crüe had 5 1/4-inch and 8-inch ones respectively. Just awesome.

Commander of the Kenyan Army, Lt. Gen. Njuki Mwaniki, met with U.S. Army Africa leaders and toured the command’s headquarters in Vicenza, Italy, Feb. 23-25.
In addition to meeting with U.S. Army Africa Commander, Maj. Gen. David R. Hogg, Mwaniki delivered a presentation on border security issues affecting Kenya and toured some of the installation’s skills training facilities and Battle Command Training Center.
The Kenyan general said he was impressed by the sophisticated training and the working relationships he observed among American soldiers and their leaders.
“I think the relationship between the command and the staff, for example [between the sergeant major and the staff, is a very good example,” he said. “That is one of the highlights that I can pick straight away. That shows you it will be a successful command,” he said.
CSM Hu Rhodes, command sergeants major, USARAF, said visits like this put a personal face to a professional relationship. The command relationship endures changes in personnel; however, a familiar face can make things easier at times.
“All three of the Officers that visited were great, but, in particular, the General was impressive in each opportunity I had to spend time with him,” Rhodes said. “He is a studied leader that readily shares his experiences. I learned a lot, took a lot of notes, and look forward to meeting his NCO's in the near future.”
Mwaniki thinks the military profession is about survival, securing the nation and, in doing so, saving lives.
“That is the bottom line of our profession, therefore, we must be perfect in the task we undertake to secure the nation — there’s no substitute for that,” he said. “You must have the passion to love what you do — it must be in your genes; it must be in you.”
Mwaniki’s visit to Vicenza is another building block in an evolving relationship between the Kenyan Army and U.S. Army Africa, and we need to sustain this relationship.
“There’s really a relationship now between the U.S. and Africa,” he said. “Visits by [Major General] Hogg [to Kenya] and my visit here we are able to share our thoughts that ensure not only that [our] relationship is enhanced, but that we understand each other,” the Kenyan commander said emphatically.
Maj. Gen. David R. Hogg, commander, USARAF, said the beauty about having the chief of the Kenyan Army visiting us here in Vicenza is absolutely dramatic.
“He’s very personable and brand new to the job -- we had an opportunity to discuss some of the challenges and issues in Eastern Africa,” Hogg said. “We also talked about potential training, missions, exercises, and of course he had the opportunity to come see how U.S. Army Africa operates on a daily basis and see some of our training devises that we use for our Soldiers here,” the USARAF commander said.
Mwaniki stressed that communication is critical — it makes you understand the other person.
“We want to get as much as possible, to ensure that we secure and make Africa a better place,” Mwaniki said. “Ultimately our problems will be solved by us, but the expediencies of the U.S. in other areas will allow us to solve our problems, and we thank them,” he said.

Facebook has a nice feature (yes, really) when you log in from a location you've not been to before. I've seen this a lot recently.You can either answer your secret question or identify friends from a series of photos, of which you're only allowed to get two wrong.
As I discovered this morning, this falls down when photos aren't of a person. Normally it gives you two photos of each person, but not on this occasion.
