5 asks for the local elections 2022
December 7, 2021 November 17, 2022 Ben
Ahead of May's local elections, we wrote to the leaders of the main parties in Haringey to ask for their support for our '5 asks'. These are 5 specific requests that, if implemented, will help achieve our vision for a Haringey where it's safe and enjoyable to walk and cycle.
Labour, LibDems and the Greens have all pledged to support our asks – between them, these parties received 92.5% of the votes cast in Haringey in 2022 – read their detailed responses here.
Haringey Cycling Campaign (HCC) calls on Haringey Council to commit to safe, enjoyable cycling for all and to guarantee that all new cycling infrastructure conforms to national guidelines (LTN 1/20) and is safe enough to be used by families and schoolchildren.
We have set out below our top five priorities for cycling in Haringey for the next four years which we would like each party to unconditionally endorse (i.e. not subject to external funding) by including them within their manifesto for the upcoming local elections (May 2022).
HCC's Top 5 Priorities to be delivered and operational no later than May 2026:
Two additional north-south cycle lanes and a continuous east-west cycle lane
Commit to 100% Borough wide LTN coverage, delivering 75% coverage by 2026
School streets to be introduced for every school in Haringey
To commit to Vision Zero: eliminating all serious cycle injuries caused by motor vehicles
Create a pro-cycling culture in Haringey

Support Wightman Road filtering – complete the council survey by this Sunday 14 May!
May 12, 2017 October 3, 2017 admin
'Daddy, can we please cycle to Finsbury Park again this weekend?'
Last summer extraordinary things happened in one part of Haringey. It was a summer of fun for kids: on roads and streets where before there was only bad air and road traffic noise, now there was the sound of kids playing out. Street football was a daily occurrence, children were using the road to cycle to school and there was even the occasional lemonade stand. It wasn't just children who were joining in with being more active. Adults across this large area realised they didn't really need the car for their shorter journeys – walking was nearly as fast and made them feel pretty good now the air was cleaner. Cycling to Finsbury Park to pick up the tube was quicker than the bus and nicer than cramming onto the packed trains, and getting there on a bike suddenly seemed easy now the journey could be done mostly without having to ride with speeding traffic.
Surely this was all the work of a council fully committed to the health of their residents, the sort that would make bold claims about making their borough the most liveable in London? Sadly this utopia did not last. While other boroughs nearby were permanently closing roads to through traffic to entrench a new, healthier lifestyle in their boroughs, Wightman Road and its adjoining roads were reopened as through routes for motor traffic. The weekend bike rides to the park had to stop.
'I'm sorry. There's no safe way to cycle there now'.
As a cycle campaign we are of course primarily interested in high quality provision for cycling that allows anyone to feel confident using a bike to get around. This has been the focus of our continuing engagement in the Green Lanes Area Transport Study. There are many ways to achieve this but many options that improve conditions for people on bikes also have much wider benefits for those in the area – even if they never cycle. For example making areas more healthy and liveable, reducing air pollution and even reducing journey times for drivers by lowering overall traffic levels and simplifying routes. If you live in or travel through Harringay or the Green Lanes area, you have until Sunday to complete the council survey on future options for Wightman Road and the surrounding area. We believe this is an issue primarily for local people to decide, so please take a look at Living Wightman's advice on how to complete the survey. While some of the options presented can deliver a suitable cycle route (in particular we recommend you support the proposal for a northbound cycle track on Green Lanes, desperately needed in an area with no safe north/south routes), the option to 'filter' Wightman Road will deliver multiple health and air quality benefits as well as a safe route suitable for all-ages cycling. Many parts of this borough are already 'filtered' to through traffic. Other boroughs which are right next to Haringey are showing how such schemes, if well managed, can reduce traffic over a wide area. The use of Wightman Road as a conduit for through traffic has negative consequences for the areas to the north and south that also have long-standing issues with excessive through traffic.
The council's response to the issues encountered on Wightman Road is a real test for them – are they serious about tackling pollution and unlocking the massive potential for active travel in this borough? Or, as suggested by the recent consultation on the Wood Green AAP, is the future of our borough just as polluted, congested and unhealthy as our present? This is your chance to tell the council what sort of place you want this borough to evolve into. Don't miss the chance to have your voice heard.

Bruce Grove Consultation – urgent action needed!
Transport for London are currently consulting on changes to the A10 at Bruce Grove (from the rail station south to Forster Road). The consultation is open until 7 December, please have your say via https://consultations.tfl.gov.uk/roads/bruce-grove/
These proposals were discussed at Haringey Cycling Campaign's monthly meeting on the 14 November. Unfortunately, we found very little to recommend from a cycling perspective. The junction treatment outside Bruce Grove station is likely to benefit pedestrians and to a lesser extent those on bikes. However, in our view the remainder of the proposed work would decrease safety for people cycling, and as such we are requesting TfL go back to the drawing board and come back with something much better. Our reasoning is set out below – you may wish to raise these points in your response. Remember the consultation closes on 7 December!
The proposals include a dangerous and unnecessary pinch point
The new signalised pedestrian crossing proposes to narrow the existing carriageway width to 3m in each direction. We object to this creation of a pinch point, which seems unnecessary for pedestrian safety as the proposed crossing is signalised. We are concerned that the proposed narrowing will increase conflict between road users – in theory cycles should "take the lane" to prevent dangerous overtaking but this would only be a sensible approach on a road with light volumes of traffic travelling at low speeds. For what we think are obvious reasons, this approach is not applicable to this situation.
Proposals remove existing cycle provision
There is an existing cycle route (LCN 54) that crosses the High Rd at St Loys Rd. In 2003 and 2006 detailed proposals were made, but not implemented, to upgrade this crossing. There are presently cycle reservations to the north and south of the junction, which are at least some assistance in crossing the High Road. The present proposals include the removal of the south reservation and this is not an acceptable alteration as no replacement provision is shown.
Current proposals are incompatible with increasing cycle numbers
A 2007 Transport for London scheme for the A10 from Monument Way to St Loys Rd, consulted on but not implemented, included cycle lanes. There remains ample road space for comprehensive cycle provision. Indeed, as part of implementing Mini Holland, Enfield are currently consulting on a proposal for protected cycle tracks on the A1010 up to the Haringey border. Cycle Superhighway 1 does not provide a suitable alternative route, particularly with the decision not to filter through traffic on Broadwater Road. The A10 at Bruce Grove is and will remain heavily used by cycles: Planning policy for Tottenham regeneration seeks to reduce private car use and improving cycle provision in Enfield and Waltham Forest means that the ambition for the A10 should be as a main cycle route.
We therefore urge that these proposals are either redesigned or not taken forward as part of this scheme.

Our response to TfL's Archway consultation
Thank you to all London Cycling Campaign members and supporters in Haringey and Islington who spared a minute to respond to Transport for London's proposals for the removal of the Archway Gyratory system.
Click here to review Islington Cyclists Action Group's full response on their website.
As well as many individual responses, Haringey Cycling Campaign responded to the proposals too. Here's what we said:
Haringey Cycling Campaign welcomes the proposals, however the cycle routes through the junction are incomplete, with dangerous manoeuvres through general traffic still needed. Continuous segregated cycle tracks and protected junctions are needed throughout. We fully support the detailed comments of Islington Cyclists Action Group which can be summarised as-
1) Coming from Junction Road to St Johns Way there is a left hook risk: requiring cyclists to turn right across left turning traffic. A cycle track along the central Archway island and a cycle crossing on ArchwayRoad would ensure these cyclists are safe.
2) It is not clear how to get from Archway station into Holloway Road. We need a segregated track, clearly distinguishing bikes and pedestrians, linking the track down Highgate Hill in front of the station to the southbound Holloway Road track.
3) It is impossible to cross Archway Road north of Tollhouse Way. We need a link from Archway Road (northbound) to Archway Road/Harberton Road, particularly at Despard Road and Waterlow Road.
4) Macdonald Road and Vorley Road should be two way for cycling
Incomplete cycle provision can give a false sense of security and lead to increased risk, as at the Cycle Superhighway junctions now being upgraded and we trust these points can be addressed.
The scheme should avoid using guardrailing (none is shown), but there should be features such as kerbs, planting, bollards or seating to indicate the extent of pedestrian areas. The cycle lanes should have 45deg angle kerbs. Cycle parking can also be used to emphasise the edge of a pedestrian area, as used very successfully at Kingsland High St.

iNTERSTiTiAL Shifts
Rock on the edge, Mesa Verde, Colorado (ldm)
We move through many shifts in life - birth, death, puberty, menopause, marriage, divorce, accidents, illnesses, being laid off, etc. - not to mention the plethora of decisions we make on a daily basis. Some tangibly shake us up like an earthquake and others barely register our attention. Tangible or intangible, they all work together in a common cause to shape our lives.
What feels "interstitial" to me is not just the shift itself but an edge lingering somewhere between the person we were before and the person we will become. A betwixt and between of time that can last anywhere from seconds to years and holds "those elements we have yet to see or imagine" (Working Together, David Whyte).
In the range of interstitial unknowns yet to be experienced, there are those who may linger on the edge of death held on by life support for as long as the life support is connected; babies can dwell in the birth process for hours, between the state of enveloped fetus and their first full breath of air; seconds can take on a slow motion effect when viewing a truck barreling out of control straight towards one's car.
The interstitial message that arises as our body, mind, and soul are drawn through these edgy experiences of what was and will become is about letting go. Control is futile, trusting the unfolding is optimal, even if it seems futile, for maybe everything we must experience, uplifting or not, is miraculous. Each and every moment of each and every life, no matter who, how long or short lived, how harshly or gently lived is miraculously shaped again, and again, and again..
Nature of iNTERSTiTiAL
Allow me to share my musings about a most extraordinary word - "Interstitial". I learned of this word during my invertebrate zoology class in college. It was introduced while describing interstitial fauna - tiny organisms (see the illustration) that inhabit spaces between individual sand grains. MICHAEL ALLABY. "interstitial fauna." A Dictionary of Zoology. envisioned creatures gliding through an environment filled with obstacles, constantly bumping into particles. These species adapted by living in the interstices; moving around in the spaces, thriving amongst the huge grains (at least from their perspective).
Years later the word interstitial bubbled up from the deep recesses of my memory. This time I was pondering the idea from a more human perspective of living life around, amongst, and between the obstacles of life. Like the fauna that innately flow in the interstices of sand grains, what about life flowing in the midst of the obstacles that arise? In other words, working through life's blockages, barriers, and insurmountable challenges not by ignoring or wishing them away, but by delving deeper into the interstices of one's heart and soul where innate wisdom resides
Life can suck. I've been mired in the dark side and sometimes quite unwilling to extract from the large, heavy walls I build around my heart for protection. I have a pretty strong voice inside of me that likes to dwell in those walls, even though I long for the light. My ego is a strong task master to all the other voices inside of me that love to resist change.
But when you "let the soft animal of your body love what it loves*," obstacles start to feel less dense. Instead of inflexible, stubborn resistance steeped in ego and "supposed-to-be's", there comes a willingness to let go into the interstices. At first it may feel like falling into a vast void of uncertainty, losing any sense of control, but, I ask, how certain is life...really? Step into the iNTERSTiTiAL Heart...…
*from Mary Oliver's poem "Wild Geese":
You do not have to be good.
Tell me about your despair, yours, and I will tell you mine.
Meanwhile the world goes on.
Meanwhile the sun and the clear pebbles of the rain
are moving across the landscapes,
over the prairies and the deep trees,
the mountains and the rivers.
Meanwhile the wild geese, high in the clean blue air,

The company put a freeze on testing nationwide after last week's fatal crash.
As the investigation into last week's fatal crash where an autonomous Uber SUV struck and killed a pedestrian in Tempe, AZ, the state's governor has suspended Uber's permission to test its cars there. While the company had already halted testing nationwide after the test, this is a turnaround after Gov. Doug Ducey (R) had welcomed self-driving testing from many companies with open arms in a relationship that stretches back a few years. Just a few weeks ago Ducey updated his autonomous vehicle executive order to allow testing without a safety driver.
In this crash, there was a test driver behind the wheel, but neither they nor the car reacted in time to avoid a woman who crossed in front of the car. In a letter to Uber, the Wall Street Journal reports Ducey said "my expectation is that public safety is also the top priority for all who operate this technology in the state of Arizona..The incident that took place on March 18 is an unquestionable failure to comply with this expectation."
In a statement to Engadget, an Uber spokesperson said "We proactively suspended self-driving operations in all cities immediately following the tragic incident last week. We continue to help investigators in any way we can, and we'll keep a dialogue open with the Governor's office going forward."

Rolex watches: the history of the true king of watches review
The logo of this Swiss watchmaker Rolex is a five-pronged crown, which couldn't be more apt given that Rolex is the legitimate king of watches. Famous in all corners of the planet and also a benchmark of quality, ask anyone that's the best luxury watch brand and you will find the exact same answer: Rolex. It's no wonder some of the most powerful characters ever have worn Rolex watches, including Cuban leader Fidel Castro and Sir Winston Churchill.
Synonymous with success and power, some of history's most brilliant characters, from Winston Churchill to Cuban leader Fidel Castro, have worn Rolex watches.
Beyond the abstract concept of luxury, there are some very strong reasons why Rolex watches occupy the position they do. Since it was founded in 1905, Rolex has been credited with popularising the wristwatch for men. By patenting the first waterproof watch case, optimizing the automatic winding motion, and receiving the very initial chronometer certificate on a wristwatch, Rolex is a powerhouse of technological innovations and a stickler for precision. In addition to its technological might, Rolex has generated these legendary men's and women's watches that the very first base stones – including the Oyster, the Perpetual and the Datejust – are still being manufactured now. With tweaks and ever-improved substances added across the way, Rolex has essentially remained faithful to its original layouts.
Rolex is still the top manufacturer of COSC-certified chronometers, and although the company prides itself as hermetic as its Oyster watches in regards to divulging information, manufacturing figures could be anywhere between 800,000 to 1 million watches a year; a drop in the ocean when compared to the jolt of 10 million imitation Rolex watches which pop up throughout the globe each year.
As we delve into the history of the world's best-known Swiss watchmaking business, some fairly curious facts surface: Rolex was not originally a Swiss company, its creator wasn't a watchmaker by livelihood, or for this matter Swiss, and the provider isn't by any stretch of the imagination an older watch firm. His aptitude for English gave him a good head-start at college, and one of his early tasks involved composing trade letters from a pocket watch export company in La Chaux-de-Fonds to customers in the US and England.
Hans Wilsdorf, the enigmatic and highly private German business maverick, married a British girl and maintained his British nationality until his death in 1960.
Wilsdorf then moved to London, the capital of world finance and trade, married an Englishwoman, embraced a British nationality and setup shop in 1905. Wilsdorf, the enigmatic and highly private German businessman, then left London and chose his company to Geneva in 1919, to be nearer to his Bienne supplier, although he never gave up his British nationality. He died in 1960 at Geneva.
Wilsdorf had a hunch there was a rewarding market for specialised excellent products – watches which nobody else was creating. His first move was to get guys to wear wristwatches. Dominated by the pocket watch, guys were loath to wear what they considered female bracelets and damned if they were to exchange their hefty pocket watches for something smaller. Warfare would soon change the prevailing bias as soldiers found strapping their watches on the wrist hammered up both hands for combat and helped officers synchronise assaults.
Conquering the offender that smaller movements were tantamount to less accuracy, Wilsdorf invested in the standard of his Swiss movements and, to prove it, in 1914 he acquired the world's first wristwatch chronometer rating from Switzerland and a Class A certificate of precision out of London's Kew Observatory. "It is not with low prices," he remarked,"but, on the contraryit is with enhanced quality which we not hold the current market, but improve."
Another challenge for the German entrepreneur was to create a watch impervious to water and dust, which seeped in through the glass and crown. The Rolex Oyster watch are the world's first totally waterproof timepiece and the genesis of the company's strong identity. To ensure no water could flow into the motion, the bezel, caseback and winding crown were all screwed down. The fluting of the bezel, which would turn into a distinctive trait of the Oyster family, was in fact used to screw the bezel and caseback on the middle case with a special tool produced by Rolex watches.
The Rolex Oyster watch of 1926 was the world's first totally waterproof watch. Model shown here with an octagonal instance and fluted bezel.
After the Rolex Oyster watch had been developed and tested, Wilsdorf needed to get the message out to the public and happened upon a fantastic marketing plan. He would test the Oyster in real life conditions by pinning a wristwatch on Mercedes Gleitze's bathing suit for her cross-Channel swim in 1927. Even the London stenographer emerged after 10 freezing hours from the water with her Rolex Oyster watch in excellent condition, and Wilsdorf took a full-page advert in the Daily Mail to showcase the Oyster's impeccable performance – a precursor in the usage of winning testimonials. This formula would develop into a very persuasive marketing tool, and athletes of all areas, cultural statistics and professionals that needed a rugged work companion all led to Rolex watches' solidity as a reliable brand.

Most of us are used to the built in wizard within ShareFile for branding the site. The Wizard takes around 5 minutes to configure and does the job. However, if you are fussy like me the login page leaves me somewhat underwhelmed. This blog article will take you through how to create an awesome looking homepage with little HTML knowledge.
For users of ShareFile who have used SSO / SAML authentication will be familiar with the split login page that you are required to modify and replace the standard login page. We are going to use this as a basis for our ShareFile login page.
Note: Using the custom login page will prevent you utilising the two-step-verification feature within ShareFile.
Skip this section if you are using SSO and want to retain the Employee Login section.
We are now left with the right pane aligned to the left of the screen. We need to centre this and as a result will need to modify the .right class.
This has now aligned the login to the centre of the screen and removed the thin boarder on the left.
I'm going to create a new background image and call it sharefileBG.png, this will need to be uploaded to the Customizations folder we created in Step 1. I am also going to change the background size to "cover". The Scale function will make the background image as large as possible so that the area is completely covered by the image. Some parts of the background image may not be in view within the background positioning area depending on the size of the screen used. I suggest only using this option with large background images that are designed to scale in and out.
Simply replace the text testlogo.png to the name of your logo that you have uploaded to the Customizations folder. The logo has a fixed size of Height 78px by Width 290px. If you wish to have your logo larger then modify those values to match that of your image.
The Client login Text is quite dark compared to the background so i'm going to change the colour by modifying the h1 and h4 tags.
I have also modified the margin values in order to push the login button up a bit closer to the password box.
If you want to change the login button for an icon you have created, you can do this by replacing the login.png image to one of your choice.
The final piece to set is your sub domain on the forgotten password link.
I hope this blog article has been useful. Feel free to post any comments and questions below.

"You Can't Play With Us"
Post author:Ciara
Ever since I was little girl, I've been on the outskirts of life.
Never fitting, never belonging, experiencing rejection after rejection of every kind.
I didn't even have the chance to try to be one of the crowd, because the crowd didn't want me. My life's journey has been – by necessity – one of learning piece by piece how to take up your place in the world as all that you are without fear, shame or apology when the world is repulsed by your presence.
All while rejecting nothing of yourself, and refusing to your dim your light even a kilowatt.
As a young child arriving at school in a tiny rural village in Ireland after my parents moved us back home from London, I was instantly pushed away by my classmates who saw me as far too strange, and announced "you can't play with us".
Actually, that was the best of it. The worst was the cruel jabs, the literal stone-throwing, all the attempts to hurt me so much that I would hopefully go away again and take everything about myself that pressed on areas that they could not handle with me.
While on holiday with my family one year, either somebody told or a teacher enquired about why I was always on my own, but somehow it got out that Ciara wasn't allowed to play with the other children in the playground at lunch time.
I came back to a class assembly where it was announced and agreed upon with the whole class that "Ciara is to be included". With great enthusiasm from everyone involved, I was invited into the games and frolicked around the playground a little confused and unsure, but happily surprised at the change.
This lasted about 2 weeks until everyone got bored and the teachers were no longer watching, and then once again Ciara wasn't allowed to play anymore. The sting of disappointment and the requirement to trust somehow again over and over is something I know very well.
Aside from these couple of weeks, the duration of my time in school as a child was spent watching from the kerb while the other children played. I've known hurt, I've known pain, I know what it's like to never be welcome.
Though it broke the heart of the little girl inside, the profound gift of this experience has struck me so many times as I now support my precious clients who were never meant to fit in an insane world, but have come to create a new one in its place, to step into who they really are and create a life where all them thrives.
Trust me when I say that I GET IT. I don't know anyone else who has walked this path quite so intensively and come out the other side shining.
I GET that your gifts have been shunned by others, I GET that your very existence has been a bane in the lives of those who did not want to change. I understand that you've wanted to hide as a result, but that something in your soul tells you that you cannot.
And I can help you to come into fully radiant acceptance of your beingness such that you land in a self-created world of your own making that lifts to you heights you can barely imagine, and find yourself (as I am now) surrounded by others like you who love you exactly as you are and deeply respect, honour appreciate and WANT all that you bring to the table.
And where that calling that tells you you're not meant to dim it down and keep all that magic within in a secret box is answered.
Because I was never accepted, I intimately understand the layers involved in the journey of embodying who you came here to be no matter what, and the deep deep work of self-welcoming that is involved in such an incredibly nuanced process.
And here's a piece that is not often spoken about: the Shaman always stands on the edge of the world, neither here nor there. And you may have the problem that even as you start to find yourself amongst a group, you know you cannot stay there like the others too.
I can help you to land in way that even as you find yourself surrounded by your people, you never leave the place of true sovereignty in attempts at "belonging". Because the only one you can truly belong to is you, and yours is a path of freedom.
There is a way to be part of the world and stand alone as well.
The Vision Quest journey is open for those who are called 🙏

Motivation to organize… It's in you!
Motivation – "Willingness of action especially in behavior"-Wiktionary. The excuses behind what we have motivation for and what we don't is a mile long list, would you agree? Although, we all find the "motivation" when it comes to an action that we desire, correct? I.e. money, food, vacations, attention, etc… If we were able to make organization about having your desired outcome, wouldn't that help accomplish it? Here's some tips on finding YOUR motivation to organize what's important to you.
You have 24 hours.. how will you use it?
Do it yourself, or hire a pro… no more excuses!
*Money: Start with the free side of organization – de-clutter, have garage sales, give away items. Make an organization fund, that you add your morning coffee money to. Skip the expensive coffee, and in few months you will have money to splurge at an organization store!
*Energy: What get's you excited!? What makes your day run smoothly? Did you know if your disorganization is spilling into your family's/co-worker's/or spouse's life, you are disrupting more than yourself? Isn't it worth it to find the energy for them too? Why not give yourself a reward for accomplishing small tasks at a time? You will find the energy if you don't do everything in one or two sittings. Start small – medicine cabinet or pet area… move to bigger areas as you gain more confidence. Keep it up… your motivation goals were closer than you thought!

Saturday HPDE day canceled, Sunday is still on!
Hi members & participants,
Due to the inclement weather and the time required to get the track prepped again, we have decided to cancel the HPDE day on Saturday. The track staff has assured us that they will be able to get the track surface ready for Sunday so the TT is still a go! As of now we're looking to have three sessions for each group before the TT, but we may change that if we can to maximize track time on our last day of the season.
We will also be processing refunds for the Saturday TT next week.
Stay warm, and see you Sunday!

2020 In-Season Competition Update
What a year and a season this has been! We've come a long way since the board meetings in April when we weren't even sure we would be able to host any events this year. Thanks to the hard work and careful planning of the COMSCC Board of Directors and staff, we have been to complete four events and will wrap up the season with a fifth event at Palmer Motorsports Park in a couple of weeks. A huge thank you to our instructors and licensed members who traveled far and wide to join our events this year – your commitment and contributions to COMSCC are hugely appreciated! While we haven't been able to accomodate students new to tracks this year, we hope everyone will join us next year for a more 'normal' season. Here's a brief run down of the class standings:
Scott Florio already has the class win in the bag heading into the last event. Charles King, Erik Shifflett and Dan Preston (we miss the Z by the way!) all have wins this year, so this event should be a fun one to watch next season.
Marc Epstein has wrapped up the class in his 'new' Cayman race car, and John French is second in the standings.
Super C
We've seen some truly close competition in the class this year. For example the four were within 0.9 seconds of each other at the first event of the year at Thompson Motor Speedway. Steve Cefalo holds a slim two point lead over last year's champ Scott Rosnick, but the top five competitors are only separated by eight points, and Mick Demopoulos, Bruce Allen and Tom Cannon all have chance a shot at the title making Super C probably the closest competition heading into the Palmer event.
Super D
Dave Lemoine has a ten point lead over Roe Cole and looks likely to take the class championship for the second year running. However, he'll still need to score points so it's far from a foregone conclusion. Jake Wile and Jeff Zissulis round out the class.
For the second year running this class has attracted a deep field. Jeff Wasilko has 40 points, but Mark Swinehart (37 points) and Matt Daniels (34 points) are close enough to have a realistic chance of a win. Ex-COMSCC president John Spain was also seen at this event, though the rumors of a pink tutu seem entirely unfounded…
Touring 100
Consisting purely of Corvettes, Porsche Cayman GT4's and E46 M3's, T100 is a class for serious cars! Steven Amanti leads the class in his Z06, while Josh Byington, David Reddington, Dana Johnston and Cassie Johnston round out the top five. A warm welcome to Curt Alpha, a first time participant with COM at our last event!
Brandon Travassos has had a win in every event he attended (including one in a different class), and has parlayed that into a commanding 12 point lead in the T90 championship. Victor Larin is second and Mike Hassler is third in his sweet BMW M4.
This class has had the highest number of participants throughout the year, and three different drivers have won during the year. Luke French and Chris Taylor are two points apart at the top of the championship with Peter McParland in third. Sam Pollard is P4 and Ranjan Lal is P5.
Last year's third place man Ryan Catucci leads Nelson Barros and Nick Fontana going into the final race. Other participants like Bill Rice, Brewster Charles and Adam Stevens could have been higher in the championship battle but weren't able to attend enough events.
T60 has been a see saw battle all year. Dan Durusky's three wins has him up by four points over Jon Cowen (a podium at every event) and a whopping 14 points over Dan Baldwin (one win, two podiums). Bob Steenson rounds out the top four. T60 stalwart Howard Roundy had a mechanical at NHMS but we hope to see him back in the mix at Palmer!
Troy Velasquez has gone one better than last year and sealed the championship (with a round to spare). Paul Giurlando is second, while Chuck Tolley is third in his Mazda RX-7. Toyota 86's and BRZ's hold the next four spots in T50 but have been unable to crack the top three in the championship standings. Every single event this year has been won by a different driver!
Incredibly consistent performances have allowed Dennis Herrick to seal the championship well before the last event. John Riopel, Micah Spielvogel (two wins), Derek Tanguard (two wins) and Lorenz Jakober are going to be in a dog fight for P2, so Palmer is going to be fun to watch!
Following a two year hiatus as class champion, Andrew Grigg has wrapped up the T30 class championship tighter than a baby's diaper (Andrew is a new dad, geddit?). Congrats to Graham Cranston on his first COMSCC win. Mark Paulilis could well have been higher up the order with more frequent appearances, as he finished P2 in both the events he attended.
Driver Championship
Steven Amanti (51.75 points) is third in the driver championship standings right behind Dave Lemoine with 52.75 points. Dan Durusky leads the driver championship with 54.25 points, and needs a win at the last event of the season to bring home the big trophy.
We've got a ton of championships on the line, and we hope to see you at the last event of the season to cheer on the competitors and get some final track miles under your belt before winter sets in!

And I reply "I didn't. It left me".
This entry was posted in Faiths And Their Followers by Mitch Berg. Bookmark the permalink.
It's been quiet around here. I think I'll start a religious flame war, just to liven things up.
Every religion claims to be The One True Faith. If they didn't believe that, then what's the point of joining? Why not join a competing faith?
Since my faith is The One True Faith, then by definition, you must be Worshipping False Idols. The very notion of reaching out to other religions makes no sense (why embrace the darkness) . . . unless the intent is to convince them to leave their heathen ways and come join us in the light.
Catholics mending fences with Lutherans makes sense (Okay, we admit it, Luther was right. Selling church office and pre-paid sin cards were bad ideas. But we've dropped them now, so come on back). Probably not going to work after all this time, but the doctrinal differences between Roman Catholic and Wisconsin Synod Lutheran might be small enough that some accord could be possible. Reaching out to them makes sense. If we're all basically headed in the same direction and the only question is who leads us, we should be able to talk about that.
Presbyterians opening their assembly with a Muslim prayer isn't comparable at all. The differences in the core beliefs of those two religions makes them incompatible. So why reach out? It smells like cargo-cultism. "Catholics and Lutherans are reaching out, maybe we should reach out, too." Missing the point of the exercise, people. It's not about the reaching. It's who you're reaching to.
When the leaders of a church can't remember why theirs is the One True Faith and all the rest are false, that religion is in trouble. Worshippers know when it's happening and head for the exits. I predict a schism.
When Christians pray with Jews, the polite thing to do is to leave doctrine out. Both Jews and Christians can pray to God the father, creator of the universe (or "providence"). If the report is to be believed, the Muslim leading the prayer purposely chose to make his prayer with Christians center on matters of doctrinal difference with them. He reduced Christ to non-divinity, one of the prophets superseded by Mohammad.
And the Presbyterians went right along with it.
One of the few things I heard on NPR recently that was interesting was a report on whether Christians and Muslims worshiped the same God. The Muslim said yes, both worship the God of Abraham. The response (from a Baptist theologian) was, no, Christians and Muslims do not worship the same God. He said that Christians are able to relate to God only through Christ, the son of God. Christ's incarnation, death, and resurrection was the price paid for the covenant of the gentiles with God. No divine Christ, no pathway to God (unless you are a Jew).
The Catholic church has it's issues with homosexual predators, and I am not making any excuses for the whole nasty mess, but many Protestant denominations have turned their dogma into fetishes.
Catholic priests have abused boys, but at least the Pope isn't changing the liturgy to make that a celebration of love.
sigh…make a comment and end up in moderation Purgatory.
Joe, when the next big schism happens in the Catholic Church (and I do see it coming), I think I may join up with the dirt worshipping heathens, or maybe the snake people. I really need to spice up my spiritual life.
I left the Catholic Church several years ago. There were too many hypocrites practicing it.
There were too many hypocrites practicing it.
So, you've found a church without too many hypocrites?
C'mon, don't keep its name a secret . . .
Islam is integrally political. The other ones aren't. Per Andrew C. McCarthy.
By comparison the number of children sexually abused by public school teachers in USA during the same time period is estimated to be well over 1 million see http://www.hofstra.edu/pdf/orsp_shakeshaft_spring03.pdf for one view of the rampant and severely under-reported abuse taking place in public schools.
Attacking Catholics is part of a leftist media narrative downplaying US public school abuse simply protects one of the left's biggest union cohorts – the teachers union.
You have to do a bit of "kremlinology" with the MSM. If a comparison between the safety of Catholic schools and the safety public schools made the public schools look better, it would be in the headline. Since public schools aren't compared, you can assume the public schools numbers are worse than the Catholic school numbers.
If you compare public schools to Catholic schools, standard reading test scores, graduation rates, and the percentage of college-bound students who graduate from college in 4 years, Catholic schools beat public schools by large margins. It's not even close.

Biografia
Mickey Daniels nacque a Rock Springs dall'attore Richard Daniels e da Hannah Daniels.

Scoperto da un talent scout nel 1921 mentre recitava in un teatro di Rock Springs, Daniels esordisce nel cinema con una piccola parte nel film My Wild Irish Rose (1922). Lo stesso anno viene scelto da Hal Roach per recitare nel serial cinematografico Simpatiche canaglie, di cui divenne uno dei protagonisti, interpretando il personaggio di "Mickey". L'intera esperienza di attore bambino di Mickey Daniels  si sarebbe svolta all'interno della serie, tra il 1922 e il 1926, con l'eccezione di alcune piccole parti in film di Harold Lloyd.

Lasciata la serie nel 1926, Daniels riprende a recitare negli anni trenta come giovane attore nella serie The Boy Friends (1930-32) assieme ad un'altra veterana delle Simpatiche canaglie, Mary Kornman. Entrambi torneranno a prendere parte occasionalmente, questa volta da interpreti adulti, anche in alcuni episodi della serie che li aveva lanciati come attori bambini. La carriera di Daniels, come quella di Kornman, però non va oltre una serie di piccoli parti e si conclude agli inizi degli anni quaranta.

Dopo la seconda guerra mondiale Daniels entrò nell'industria delle costruzioni, mentre dal 1967 fino alla morte lavorò come tassista a San Diego.

Divenuto un alcolizzato, il 20 agosto 1970, a 55 anni, fu trovato morto in un motel a San Diego, solo e dimenticato. La causa della sua morte fu attribuita a cirrosi. Fu sepolto al Forest Lawn Memorial Park a Glendale, in California.

Got my LAN working on Dial-up!
OK, everything is set up using an external modem, K7S5A onboard NIC and PCI NIC on client.
First, let me throw some quick pointers out that flounder43 can use in the FAQ section of the ECS AMD mainboard forum.
If you begin to have problems and conflicts that don't make sense, uninstall everything and start over.
This includes removing all of the clients, Adapters and TCP/IP protocols in Network Properties.
Now, I am NOT an expert on this stuff, but because of the many hours and problems I have had getting this to work again, I feel as though I have something to offer. I am quite sure that some of the steps I took were probably not necessary. This is just a description of how I did get things to work. You can Email me and I will do my best to answer or research the problem for you.
But I do not make guarantees. Networking has proven to be the most difficult challenge in software setup that I have ever tackled.
My setup includes an ECS K7S5A w/1 gig Athlon running at 1330 and an Asus A7V running a Duron 700 at stock. The A7V uses an Addtron PCI network card and the ECS uses the onboard SIS900 network. The ECS is the server and the systems are linked via a crossover cable, not a hub system.
The server uses BrowseGate (LITE), which is a TOTALLY free version of a proxy server for all small home or small office network users. It is available HERE. The LITE version is limited in it's functionality in that only 2 concurrent PC's may use BrowseGate(LITE) at any one time. I'm not completely sure what that last statement means, but I will try to find out.
Anyway, first let me tell you that my initial problems with setting up the network were solved by doing lots of trial and error. With the ESC system and the onboard network hardware, the network would not connect. I then tried a PCI network card in this system and it would still not work.
I needed to be sure it was not a problem with wiring so, I set up another system, an A7V133, using the PCI card. That would not work either. Then I remembered that the ZoneAlarm firewall was installed. So I uninstalled the Zonealarm firewall software and that allowed me to get the network working with the PCI card on the A7V133.
So it is not the wiring. I figured that was the problem on the ECS system, so I set it up again but soon realized that I had uninstalled the firewall sometime previously, but the network on this setup would not work either. I then proceeded to uninstall all of the network drivers and the items in the network setup section, i.e. all of the clients, Adapters and TCP/IP protocols.
Now I started again by installing only the SiS900 network drivers and setting the TCP/IP setting for the server. After restart, it worked great. Now I'm cookin!!
Next I set up the dialup proxy, BrowseGate(LITE), and add the settings for the client PC. Initially, the server would not dial out. It was giving me an "error #720" and said something about not being able to negotiate the protocols in the "Server Type" settings. Well, everything looked to be set up correctly so I did a search on Dogpile and one suggestion was to reinstall the dialup adapter. Well, why not? Tried that and the error went away. I don't know why!
From here, it was a matter of setting up the client PC for receiving mail and now I can surf the net from both PCs at the same time and both take advantage of the faster external modem on the server. With 'dial-on-demand', the server will dial up when the client tries to go online.
There are still 2 things I need to work out. One, the server will not initiate the dialup 'on demand' when trying to get on the Internet from the server. I have to start the dialup connection manually. I think that is a setup problem to be resolved soon as I have sent an inquiry to the tech support people.
The other thing I would like to do, but I don't think it will be possible, is to set up the client PC so that it will use its own modem if the server is not running. What a challenge that would be, eh!! It does dial up and make the connection, but of course, it cannot find the proxy server address.
My next project may be to set this up using the A7V133 as a server and leave it on 24/7, then use a hub setup and 2 clients with 'dial-on-demand'. That way the user of either PC can get on the net without having to turn on the server system.

This time of year, you'll be hard pressed to find a home that doesn't have tons of holiday decorations on display. And rightly so! Christmas is one of the most widely celebrated holidays, and it's a fabulous excuse to totally deck your house out. But what happens when the holidays are over, and it's time to take down the decorations? What do we do with them? They take up SO MUCH space, and we only use them once a year!
Not everyone has that kind of space, and even if you do, do you really want to use it storing boxes and bins of things you'll hardly use? That's why it's so important to minimize your holiday storage! I know this might sound really hard to do when there are so many cute holiday decor items that we really REALLY want to buy and display. But by putting a little creativity and thought into it, it's really quite simple!
Be selective about your holiday decor purchases.
This will not only save you holiday storage space, but also a good amount of money! When you are out shopping for decorations, always keep this question in the back of your mind: What will I do with this item when the holidays are over? If it's something smaller, then you might have no problem finding space for it.
But if it's something large and bulky, decide where you will store it (and where you will display it in your home) BEFORE you buy it! Items in a store can be deceiving, because they look smaller when you're in a large store. And then you get them home, and all of a sudden that miniature reindeer is taking up half your entryway! So think really carefully before you buy, and buy selectively!
Use neutral colors for your larger, bulkier decorations.
By choosing neutral colors, you'll be able to use these items year round and might not need to store them at all. When I made my DIY apothecary jars, I painted them silver so that I could use them for any holiday or season. I fill them with different accessories depending on the holiday. This ensures I only have to store the filler, and not the large jars!
Plan to use your decor for multiple holidays.
Using your decorations for several holidays will not only cut down on your holiday storage, but it will also save you money and ensure that you get to use your holiday decor more than once a year. For example, a red vase could be used for Christmas, Valentine's Day, and even the Fourth of July. So instead of buying the red vase that's covered in Christmas trees patterns, choose a plain red vase that you can use over and over again. You can always fill the vase and decorate it with holiday accessories to make it appropriate for whatever holiday you want, such as ribbon, Poinsettias, and pine boughs for Christmas.
Use smaller accent pieces for your holiday specific items.
Your holiday specific decorations will only be appropriate for one holiday, and you might not be able to use them for anything else, but that's ok because they're smaller and easier to store! Just remember to keep these items within a reasonable amount, because they can add up quickly!
What items can you maybe make a few tweaks to and use again for the next holiday? My interchangeable burlap wreath is a fabulous example of this! I use one wreath form and simply change out the accessories every season, so I don't need to store a bunch of wreaths! Check out the difference between all the different versions. You can't even tell they're the same wreath!
Do this with as many of your larger items as possible. Instead of buying Halloween pillows, buy regular pillow forms and cover them with Halloween slipcovers. Instead of painting the letters "fall" on your mason jars, use removable vinyl stickers or wrap the jars with stamped fabric, so that a few weeks later those same jars can spell out "joy" or whatever words you want to use. Think outside the box, and then you won't need to store as many things inside a box!
Include detailed labels on your storage boxes.
Instead of simply marking a box "Christmas," include details as to what is in the box that you might want to use for other holidays, such as "white tablecloth" or "red candlesticks." So often we simply mark our boxes by holiday and put them away and never think of them again until that holiday comes around a year later. This way, the next time you go to decorate for another holiday, you'll be able to easily see what items you could use again without digging through every box.
Clean out your old holiday decorations.
Are you storing holiday decorations that you don't use anymore? Perhaps these items are better off being repurposed into something else or donated to a local thrift store. There's no use in storing things you never use! I know it can be hard to get rid of things, but they really aren't doing you any good stored away for years in a box in the basement, garage, or attic. You can breathe a sigh of relief when you're finished, as you'll have more space and less clutter in your life!
When in doubt, paint it out!
If you have an item that you just love, but it's not the right color for whatever holiday you want, paint it! A few coats of paint can completely transform an item for another holiday. I scored a fantastic deal on some cute picture frames at the craft store simply because they were fall themed and fall was over. I bought them and painted them white, so now I can keep them up year round and simply change out the holiday prints (because you know I am all about free printables)!
So are you ready to take the plunge and minimize your holiday storage? I recommend doing it one holiday at a time as each holiday comes around. So by this time next year, your holiday storage should be under control, and to top it all off, you'll have some fabulous holiday decorations to display for every holiday! If you enjoyed this post, you'll love my newsletter. Sign up below for weekly craft, DIY, and home projects and tips!
These are all really great tips Celeste. I also l ike to use neutral items that can have more than one purpose. The only trouble I'm having is labeling all of my boxes and stash! I'll be on board with you come January. Merry Christmas dear friend! And may you have a bright 2016!!
Thanks so much, Mary! So glad you'll be following along next month! I'll have some labeling tips that might help you with your holiday storage as well. I hope you have a wonderful Christmas and a happy New Year!
These are some tips and I love those apothecary jars! My boyfriend hates that I love decorating for the holidays b/c it then has to all be taken down and stored. With this tips I just may be able to decorate a little bit more!!
Thanks, Roxy! Hope this helps you decorate away without worrying about moving and storing everything! Happy holidays!
Great tips. I love the idea of neutral decorations you can use for multiple holidays. Those glass jars and red vase are great ideas.
Thanks! It's always helpful to keep colors in mind when you're selecting holiday decorations!
This is wonderful. I'm going to plan out a morning after Christmas to go through and organize my decor.
Great idea, Lisa! There's no better time to organize your holiday decorations than at the change of the season!
Yes, I find that saves so much space! Jars and vases are just so bulky when you have to store them!
Great tips there. I like the idea of wreath a lot !.
Thanks, Monika! I think the interchangeable wreath is my biggest space saver!
Oooh good points! I'm always drooling over all the Christmas decor the stores start putting out around Halloween time and admit that I don't ever think about where I'm gonna put those things AFTER Christmas is over! Ha!
Lol, I know! It is so easy to get carried away when stores put out all their holiday decorations! I have to put blinders on when I'm shopping!
These are really great tips! I've definitely been working on interchangeable and thinking about what I can paint.
That's great, Kelsie! That should really help get you cut down on that holiday storage!
Great ideas! Especially since I live in apartment and have little to no additional storage.
I know how that feels, Jenny! Hopefully this will help you have some fabulous holiday decorations even though you don't have much storage space!
I had a post similar to this but not as extensive that I did not get up before Christmas. Oh well, your have some fabulous ideas. I had no idea decorations in larger stores look smaller. Who knew? Anyway, I repainted many items for this season including furniture. Also, I am a huge believer in neutrals. Great post. Thanks!
Great tips Celeste! The neutral decorations like the glass jars that you can use for multiple occasions is something I can definitely see myself doing.
Thanks! So glad you'll be able to use some of these tips, Bree!
That's a good idea, Rebekah! Using natural decorations lets you recycle and compost them at the end of the season without worrying about any storage at all!
I've been getting more into minimalism and recently reduced my holiday decor to my most favorite and versatile pieces. I really like the idea of using interchangeable ones. Thanks for sharing on the Small Victories Sunday Linkup!
That's great, Heather! Reducing your holiday decor is an easy way to free up some space. I love that interchangeable decor allows you to decorate for any holiday without needing to store a bunch of holiday decorations!
Thanks for the great tips! I have several things that I can use for multiple holidays, including some glass apothecary jars that I just change the fillers in. My weakness is just putting everything in bins labeled "Christmas" or whatever, and then just like you said I have to dig through multiple bins to find anything. I definitely need to take the time to make up some better labels when I pack everything back up this weekend.
Jenny, so glad you found this helpful! I love saving space by using glass jars and just changing out the fillers. It makes decorating for the next holiday too easy! And good labeling is key when putting away those holiday decorations. It only takes a minute to add some extra details to the label!
Thanks, Lisa! I hope you're able to use some of these ideas for your own holiday storage!
I would be interested in your storage ideas, my crafts supplies are a little out of control.
Karren, my series will show you how to get control of those craft supplies and keep them organized. Stay tuned!
Celeste, these are great tips! I love Christmas and it's the only holiday I decorate for. I do choose decor items that are in our theme, so that they fit in, each year we may get one or two, but this year nothing new was needed. But I do change up the wreath decor, or the stair railings, since everything is in the same color scheme it all matches. Our home is all black, white, silver and grey with glass and mirrors so our holiday decor is the same, no changing with trends here! LOL But I do need to label the boxes when I put them away this year, several boxes of old stuff made it out of the attic, and I'm sure my husband would appreciate it if he only had to get down what we actually use! LOL I got rid of some, but am holding on to others for when my kids move out, they will have a starter Christmas decor set!
Thanks, Nikki! Christmas is my biggest holiday decor-wise as well, though I was able to pare down a lot of our Christmas stuff this year, so that helps with storage. For most of the other holidays I just have a few small things, and of course my interchangeable wreath. It sounds like your home is styled perfectly for any holiday or season, which is great! It can take a bit of time to label everything, but it's so helpful because once you do you won't have to dig through boxes to find what you're looking for. And I'm sure your kids will be glad to have a few Christmas memories from home once they're out on their own!

Thanks so much, Chris! I always enjoy Funtastic Friday!


Travel with Kevin and Ruth!: Travel day...and some choices to make!
But, we live and learn and try to adapt our travel style just a little bit every year depending on the country we're in. You're never sure if something is going to work out until you actually try it!
We set out just before 10:00am. Another beautiful sunny day, calling for a high of 12C (54F).
Traveling by car in Romania is similar to Mexico. Sometimes it takes forever to get anywhere. Which is okay...we're certainly in no rush.
And, we like to stop and take photos along the way!
But after that, we hit a long stretch of road construction that was pretty rough at times.
For about 10 kms (6 miles).
We stopped in the small city of Deva (pop 61,000) to do some grocery shopping. We're going to be staying at this next guest house for six nights, and they have kitchen facilities for us to use so we're going to be doing our own meals during our time there.
It takes us forever to do grocery shopping! But, it's kind of fun. The guy at the deli counter spoke quite good English so that was very helpful for buying cheese and sandwich meats.
With that done, we headed for the Casa Craciun Guesthouse in the village of Teliucu Inferior. We passed by fabulous Corvin Castle (we'll have photos another day) and five minutes south of that, we arrived.
For some reason, there is no sign. The owner said it's because he's renovating, but previous reviews complained of the same problem. But, I had figured out exactly where it was, so not a real issue.
The owner Petre was there to greet us and show us around. Very rustic, typical Romanian old country house. The kitchen equipment was not bad, but missing some simple things...like a can opener!
But, it'll do for our time here.
The attached bathroom. I'm going to have to watch my head!
Especially good for the price though...only 72 lei ($24 CAD, $18 US) per night.
Now, I mentioned we had some choices to make.
Obviously, if money were no object we would choose the first class option.
But given that we are highly unlikely to sleep at all, why spend the extra money to be lying down awake? And if we are in a 4 or 6 berth, you don't know who you're going to be with. Snorers?
We're leaning towards either the cheapest option...or the most expensive!
Thanks for remembering to come back here prior to doing any of your Black Friday shopping.
The Black and Decker Lithium Dustbuster is half price today!
It's not a bus ride but a train ride so for that price we would get berths. We really kept tossing it around and then ended up going with the private berths partly because it is an overnight ride and if we should happen to fall asleep we don't want to worry about the safety of our bags, not that we are too worried about it but at least that way they are with us.
Beautiful. Thanks for the videos! Awesome scenery.
Depends on whether you are the sort that can get any sleep in chairs, I guess. There was an overnight train ride from Sicily to the Italian mainland that we tried to get away with only purchasing seats, but they kicked us off the train along the way (midnight? 2 am?), along with the other seat sitters. Apparently to go all the way through on that train, you had to have a berth reservation.
That bathroom is interesting. Usually when I've seen these open showers/wet bathrooms, the whole room is tiled.
No we aren't the best chair sleepers but we have also had a berth on a train before and found we didn't get a whole lot of sleep that way either but at least we were more comfortable. That's crazy that they could just kick you off the train for just having seats, especially if your ticket said that you had paid for the entire trip from Sicily to the mainland.
Yes, the bathroom is a little interesting but it works fine. Kevin really has to remember to watch his head. We feel a little weird using these "wet bathrooms" guess it is just because we are so accustomed to keeping water contained in a shower. I think our room and another room plus the kitchen area are in what used to be an old barn/stable many years ago.
Why going with the train? I think the train you are mentioning is going from Timisoara to Iasi (called "the hunger train" LOL, not sure why). I took a trip with it in early 2000's and it took forever. I didn't mind because I spent my time with friends having a drink and a laugh, but it's a loooong journey.
I'm sure there's a coach that can take you there faster and in better conditions.
Also if you are in the area you might want to pop on see this dam https://ro.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barajul_Gura_Apelor . I'm sure you guys would really like the area.
P.S. I'm happy to see you enjoying it so far.
We aren't sure of the actual route for the train but we decided to go this way just because it seemed to be one of the easiest ways to get there rather thank changing buses all the time. We also don't normally take transportation at night because we loved to watch the scenery go by but in this case by going at night we will have 2 days in Iasi and then be able to rent a car for at least one of those days to explore the painted monasteries just north of there.
Thank you also for your suggestion of the Gura Apelor Dam, if we have time we will try to make it there.
Sounds so exciting especially the train trip. Hope all works out for the best!
OK what's up with the shower? Is it as I see it? I'm all about the small stuff.
Looks like a fun place. Enjoy, We will be eating Turkey all day tomorrow.
Pretty much as you see it. They call them "wet showers" similar to what you would see in some small camper vans or truck campers. There is actually almost the same size of space from where the picture was taken so the bathroom is roomy enough just have to watch your head on that slanted ceiling.
Happy Thanksgiving and enjoy your turkey dinner!
Hmmm... Looks like you are going to miss some of our favourite Romanian spots (the Northern part of the country). The train will be uncomfortable for such a long ride (forget sleeping, it's way too loud and screechy - been there done that). If you do go for the overnight trip, you will want to lie down for sure. Or you can fly from Cluj to Iasi - it is only $40CAD per ticket, cheaper than the train! Do a search on momondo.ca and you'll see.
Perhaps you could break up the trip and take a day to visit another area half way to Iasi? You could visit Cluj and the salt mine nearby (very cool and somewhat off the beaten path) and/or the area around the monasteries in the North (with good hiking nearby)?... Looking forward to vicariously travel along.
Yes, unfortunately we are going to miss the Maramureș area which is one of the areas that I would love to have seen. We have way too many places to see and just not enough time. When we get Iasi we will have a couple of days to explore the area so we are hoping to rent a car and drive up to see some of the painted monasteries there so we won't be totally missing out on the north. I think we will have to return again and finish seeing what we missed the first time.
I think Kevin will be explaining a bit about our choices in our next post.
We were going to visit Turda Salt Mine because yes, it looks very interesting but when we were in the area we had such beautiful weather after having some many very cool and overcast days that we didn't want to waste that beautiful blue sky by going underground.
Excellent videos. That's what I wanted to see. Looks like my kind of fall or winter season, just the way I like it. BTW, any news on rvers or gypsies? There are over half a million in the country.
I was referring to the gypsies.
I know, I was being facetious. We saw very few gypsies when we traveled through the country a couple of years ago (we saw a few women with their typical puffy skirts and headscarves). Our hosts told us that many went abroad for better opportunities; then a Romanian colleague was almost pick pocketed in Barcelona by a group of gypsies speaking Romanian - true story. Kevin and Ruth are going to Spain next, I would not be surprised if they saw more gypsies there.
Thanks Chris! The gypsies are pretty much like what iwasthere has said. We really haven't seen very many. The women are normally easy to spot with their flowery, puffy skirts but not so easy with the men. We have asked a bit about them and what we hear back isn't always very favourable. We would love to meet some and talk to them but that hasn't been the case. They are not like what you might envision from the TV shows. By the way they are not indigenous to Romania and are actually from India decent and that area and then migrated here many, many years ago. You can read about them in wikipedia, just google "Romani people".
As for RVer's it really isn't the time of year for them here as it is getting too cold to RV but we have seen many small caravans and small motorhomes around and we saw at least one RV park and one small motorhome from Italy that was parked on the side of the street in downtown Brasov.


Modern inner city or suburban life can often mean smaller living spaces, and as a result bedroom space can be tight, especially with guest rooms or spare rooms. With some smart choices however, you can make the most of any sized bedroom. Here at Somnus we advise you to create your own sleep sanctuary in order to get the best night's sleep that you can have, no matter what size. Here are our top 6 tips to help you make the most of the space in your bedroom.
Wall mirrors can trick the eyes and create the illusion of more space. Mirrored walls effectively double the space in the room from certain angles and reflect plenty of light in, helping to expand the space.
Keep windows uncluttered and let in as much light as possible. Shutter blinds or roll blinds may be a better choice than curtains to take up less space for when you want some privacy.
White walls make space look larger by reflecting light, minimalise wall decorations to avoid cluttering and overcrowding wall space. Soft neutral colours and pastels add warmth and reflect a lot of light, making the room appear bigger. If you want to bring a wall closer in a longer room a feature wall can be implemented either through louder/brighter colours or wallpapers.
If you have a room with awkward proportions it may be best to have furniture made to measure in order for it to fit snuggly into the room such as desks, wardrobes or beds. This way you can transform an awkward crevice into a functional space.
Bespoke Somnus mattresses can be made to any size to suit your individual requirements and our luxury link mattresses make transporting up tight staircases much easier.
Use your furniture to the best of its ability. Wall to ceiling shelves and wardrobes can provide vital overhead room and under the bed is prime bedroom storage space. With several different options of configuration for drawers available with Somnus deep divan bases there's plenty of ways to maximise your storage space, from standard full sized drawers to smaller continental drawers.
Take a look at how to create your own Somnus sleep sanctuary here and view our full range of Somnus mattresses here.

SFH seeks end to HIV/AIDS by 2025
Friday Olokor
The Society for Family Health has expressed optimism that HIV/AIDS will end in Nigeria by 2025.
The Managing Director of SFH, Dr. Omokhudu Idogho, in an interview with The PUNCH, stressed the need for more work in the promotion of HIV self-testing through the media and community structures.
Idogho said this during the dissemination of market research on 'Addressing barriers to HIV self-testing in the Private sector among young sexually active females and males in Nigeria: A human-centred design framework to developing private sector HIVST demand creation, distribution, and linkage models.'
Among the findings of the research, he said, was the fact that young people were eager to be able to access HIV self-testing at their own discretion.
The programme, held in Abuja was organised by the SFH in collaboration with Population Service International and Busara Centre for International Economics.
Idogho said, "For us as an organisation, the Society for Family Health, we have been in this HIV space for 40 years. I think we are actually at an extraordinarily exciting time because we are actually seeing the possibility of HIV becoming what we call ending aids.
What we need to know about 'Mkpuru Mmiri'/Methamphetamine
HIV/AIDS no longer death sentence, says LSACA CEO
World AIDS Day: Sign anti-stigmatisation bill, group urges Akwa Ibom gov
"The mantra is by 2030 but I even see Nigeria, with the trajectory we are now, ending it by 2025 if all partners continue to work the way we are working."
The Technical Learning Advisor for the Strengthening of HIV Self-testing in the Private Sector Project, Boluwatife Adesina, said, "One of the key findings was that awareness for HIV self-testing "is low and that has affected the demand for it, and that was a key finding coming from both the end-users and both the supply side.
"The project started in November 2020 and like you know for every key research it goes through a process. So, I will say the research has been from November 2020 down to October."
