Roy Hill joins list of 2018 DRHOF.com Inductees......
One of the prolific characters in drag racing has to be none other then Roy Hill! Roy has been in the game for many years and is without a doubt one of the first to come up with the concept of a drag school to teach people how to drive a race car and help Pro race drivers hone their skills behind the wheel.
Roy was tied closely to racecar legends the Petty's of NASCAR fame and through them was introduced to the reigning Chrysler elite, Ronnie Sox and Buddy Martin later becoming one of their crew.
During the late 1960's, Roy ran a Super Stock Mopar, the in 1973, Roy had the Petty's build him his first Pro Stock car a Petty blue and red Plymouth Duster and as they say, "the rest is history!" Roy stayed with the Mopars until 1982 before switching to Ford.
At the age of 72, he is still very active both racing and operating the school.

The Ciccarone Brothers (Tommy and Donnie) ran for many years in the 1970's a SS/E 1969 Camaro powered by a Truppi and Kling 427 big-block Chevrolet engine. Brother Tommy shoed the car with Donnie wrenching. The brothers held the NHRA SS/E record for seven straight years!
Ed Alessi, Sr. - Ed, the proprietor of Select Racing Transmissions, with his son Eddie, Jr.,on Long Island has been a fixture to drag racing his entire life! He has campaigned a 1963 Pontiac Catalina for decades and is still out there competing at NED Div. ! events.
Ted De Tar - a name that not to many will be familiar with as Ted died in a crash at Palm Beach International Raceway back in 1968. Ted was right in the mix of the altered wheelbase A/FXers and known to have completed at least to our knowledge twelve cars. Ted also race several Fords of the day Falcon and Torino and partnered in a Mopar project.

Greg Zyla a man for all seasons..............
Greg Zyla, well known in the annals of Motorsports journalism has long been associated with several publications during his career. Many know Greg from his twenty plus years writing for Performance Racing Industry Magazine interviewing hundreds of racers, manufacturers, promoters of the various forms in the Motorsports industry. Greg has had conversation with the likes of Smokey Yunick, Jack Roush, Ed Iskenderian,Tony George, Forrest Lucas, Doug Yates to name a several. His contributions to the sport to say the least is staggering! Greg, now semi-retired, stays active still writing doing "Test Drives" on new vehicles, for The Ledger, plus campaigns a race car with his son Tim, who is the Sports Editor at the daily newspaper, the News-Item in Shamokin, PA and of course garage time with his cherished 1972 Dodge Challenger and 1994 Pontiac Trans Am.
What many might not realize, Greg designed the the Vallco Professional Drag Racing Game back in the early 1980's. The game is still available and for those that are aware of it always enjoyed the competitive action of the game. Sure, its not like the electronics games the world has come accustomed to, but it is great fun for racers who understand the ins-and-outs of drag racing. If interested take a look at Greg's site at Greg Zyla Syndicate & Motorsports. Also on the site is many of the of the articles that were published in PRI magazine.
VARGO REUNION...............A+
Novemember 5, 2016 - We had heard great things about the annual Vargo Dragway Reunion for a number of years, but this year was the first time we were able to attend. First off, the fabled and now idle dragstrip located in Perkisie, PA is a site to behold nestled in the south corner of the AGA Farms. The farm is spectacular, but the once a year "reunion" is what would definitely light the fire of any automobile aficionado. The track close to a half mile long (including the shutdown are) was lined with vintage race cars, period correct cars, modern muscle cars, trucks high and low, that seemed to just go on and on as far as the eye could see. The event is basically a static display with music via a DJ where the starting line originally was located, but everywhere you looked there were people talking about cars, racing, etc. or in our nomenclature "Bench Racing!" The quality of the cars on display were second to none. Although we did not get a photo of Steve McBlane's awesome Ford truck (pretty sure it was an 1965 F650), that he uses to haul his equally amazingly detailed 1965 Comet nostalgia race car to events is a sight to behold. The big truck is restored and finished to full show car standards and beyond! Other cars that stood out was this 1967 427 FE Fairlane R code, the breathtaking 1963 Plymouth Max wedge car and past DRHOF.com inductee, Joe Gerdelman's twin engine dragster. Needless to say, this is just a few of the astounding cars that were displayed, so mark you calendars and make plans to attend the 2017 reunion. .(11/6/2016)

Bear Creek, PA (8/13/2016) - The 8th annual Pocono Drag Lodge Reunion saw about 200 drag race vehicles and classic muscle cars on display at this year's event for the spectators to view and recall the "OLD" days of drag racing! Headlining the event was former Top Fuel Champion, Joe Amato, who started his racing career at the now closed facility. Pocono Drag Lodge operated from 1963 through 1971.
Reunion planner extrodinaire, Charlie Hulsizer, was pleased with the participation, but noted that he does not know what the future will bare for the event as the property owner is in poor health and his family is uncertain of their plans with the land. The event raises dollars to pay the property taxes each year.

Happy 50th 426 HEMI engine...
The 426 cubic inch Hemi was available in February 1964 strictly sold as a race engine. The first Hemis made their way into NASCAR with Richard Petty taking his famous #43 to several wins before NASCAR disallowed the venerable engine in competition. The 1964 Plymouth's' and Dodges' instantly became the ultimate race cars of the era in NHRA drag racing circles and still today racers covet owning one of these treasures. Originally built for Super Stock the basic engine has become the standard for Top Fuel Dragsters and Funny Cars as well as the SS/AH Hemi Barracudas and Darts (1968/69). In 1966, Chrysler came out with a milder detuned version called the Street Hemi, which made it accessible to the general public. Prior to the Street Hemi powered cars only a select few of proven racers were able to obtain one of these jewels.
Our own Harry Laplatte's Dad, Harold, purchased a 1964 Hemi Plymouth and campaigned it in the mid-60's. The car, called the "Satellite" ran on the East Coast. Fortunately, the car is now in the care of Wade Laplatte (Harry's brother) in its original form. Take note of the seven inch rear slicks! (2/7/2014)
Who raced the earliest 1964 Mustang?
Here's what we do know; In late 1964, Ford contracted Holman & Moody to prepare ten 427-powered Mustangs' to contest the National Hot Rod Association's (NHRA) A/Factory Experimental class in the 1965 drag racing season. Five of these special Mustangs qualified for competition debuting at the 1965 NHRA Winternationals, where they competed in the Factory Stock Eliminator class. The car driven by Bill Lawton won the A/FX class and his connection with TASCA Ford is now legendary in drag racing history. Several other notable driver's including Len Ritcher, "Gas" Ronda, Dick Brannan, Les Ritchey, Al Joniec, Terry Harvey, Clester Andrews, Paul Norris, Phil Bonner to name a few participated. The Mustangs were a replacement for the infamous 1964 Ford Fairlane Thunderbolt, which were outfitted with the tried and true 427 FE side-oiler sporting dual Holley four barrel carburetors. The 427 cubic inch "Cammers" were originally designed for NASCAR to battle against the 426 Plymouth and Dodge Hemis of the era, but both the Cammer and Hemi were outlawed and transitioned into the drag racing, hence the A/FX Mustangs.
Mike Matune did track down the list and article provided by Charles Morris of the ten A/FX Mustangs built for competition; Car Tech Auto Books article HERE

Warming treaty to usher in one-world government?
A prominent global warming skeptic comes up with a conspiracy theory, and some on the right follow
By Alex Koppelman
Published October 19, 2009 6:50PM (EDT)
Some people see the New World Order lurking behind every corner, a cabal of people just waiting to impose a one-world government the moment opportunity knocks. Those people recently got a boost from Christopher Monckton, a one-time advisor to former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher who's turned himself into one of the most prominent of global warming skeptics.
"At [the 2009 United Nations Climate Change Conference in] Copenhagen, this December, weeks away, a treaty will be signed. Your president will sign it ... I read that treaty. And what it says is this, that a world government is going to be created," Monckton said at a recent event sponsored by the Minnesota Free Market Institute.
"The word 'government' actually appears as the first of three purposes of the new entity .... How many of you think that the word 'election' or 'democracy' or 'vote' or 'ballot' occurs anywhere in the 200 pages of that treaty? Quite right, it doesn't appear once. So, at last, the communists who piled out of the Berlin Wall and into the environmental movement, who took over Greenpeace so that my friends who funded it left within a year, because [the communists] captured it -- now the apotheosis is at hand. They are about to impose a communist world government on the world. You have a president who has very strong sympathies with that point of view. He's going to sign it. He'll sign anything."
Monckton's words have rocketed around the fringe: WorldNetDaily reported on them, as did conspiracist radio talker Alex Jones' Prison Planet Web site. At a similarly extreme site, Canada Free Press, one writer used Monckton's warning as evidence for an article titled "Without a shot being fired, a dictator has taken over the United States." And, of course, Birther lawyer Orly Taitz heard about it and put up a post on her blog asking for help getting in touch with Monckton.
If that were the full list of people who'd fallen for Monckton's line, it might not be worth much mention. But it's not. Conservative blogger Michelle Malkin, who's also a Fox News contributor, had a post on Monckton's remarks. On Twitter, Saul Anuzis, who chaired the Michigan Republican Party until just recently and was an unsuccessful candidate to head the Republican National Committee, linked to a report on what Monckton said. The report to which Anuzis linked was published by a Web site advertising one video about FEMA internment camps and another about how one of the Rothschilds picked President Obama as part of a plot "to murder America."
Problem is, Monckton's reading of the proposed framework for negotiation -- hardly a completed treaty -- was woefully inaccurate. And that's a nice way of putting it. The document clearly does nothing whatsoever to promote any sort of world government, and indeed, it refers to the efforts of national governments repeatedly.
Here's the sole evidence in the framework for Monckton's claim:
The scheme for the new institutional arrangement under the Convention will be based on three basic pillars: government; facilitative mechanism; and financial mechanism, and the basic organization of which will include the following:
(a) The government will be ruled by the COP with the support of a new subsidiary body on adaptation, and of an Executive Board responsible for the management of the new funds and the related facilitative processes and bodies. The current Convention secretariat will operate as such, as appropriate.
(The COP to which that language refers is the Conference of the Parties, which the official U.N. Web site explains as, "the 'supreme body' of the Convention, that is, its highest decision-making authority. It is an association of all the countries that are Parties to the Convention ... [and] is responsible for keeping international efforts to address climate change on track.")
Unfortunately for Monckton and those who've fallen for what he said without doing some rudimentary checking of the document's language, there's more than one meaning of the word "government." There's the conventional definition, the one he used, and then there's this one, which is very clearly the one intended in this case: "direction; control; management; rule: the government of one's conduct."
Update: As if on cue, Glenn Beck picked up on Monckton's comments, and interviewed him for his radio show Monday. Beck also told Monckton, "what I'd like to do is I'd like to, I'd like to spend an hour with you, quite honestly, Lord Monckton, and have you on the TV show and maybe bring in ambassador John Bolton about this as well."

As most of you know I rarely endorse a specific brand of photographic equipment, however, this month I am writing about a filter holder that was provided to me to review and use. Many of you also know that I have been working with filters specifically neutral density filters and graduated neutral density filters quite a bit over the last several years.
The Vu 100mm Filter Holder (catalog # VHF100) is designed to hold 100mm square and 100x150mm rectangular filters, it retails for about $140, and comes with 2 lens adapter rings to fit 77mm and 82mm filter thread size lenses. Additional rings for other sized lenses are about $10 each. This makes it one of the least expensive holders on the market.
What sets the Vu Holder apart from the others are two things: the quality of construction and superior design. The Vu Holder is very well constructed and a joy to work with. I like working with equipment that is well machined and does what it is designed to do in an easy and smooth manner. A big frustration for me is working in the field and trying to capture an image when the light is changing rapidly and then struggling with my equipment. This holder has worked flawlessly for me even in challenging weather conditions. I work in subzero weather during the winter–these conditions can pose a challenge for any equipment yet the Vu Holder worked like a charm all winter long. Even while wearing gloves I was able to easily attach and work with this device.
and the 82mm Circular Polarizer.
The corresponding filters made by Vu are equally well designed and constructed. Vu Filters are made with 100% German Schott Glass and have excellent color rendition and image quality. I can easily recommend them as well.
at john@coldsnapphotography.com and I will send you details on how to get this special offer.


Nicosia district court on Friday ordered a 38 year old man jailed for 15 days for driving under the influence of alcohol.
The court also suspended his driver's licence for three months.
The man was stopped by traffic police in Nicosia on June 3 last year.
He underwent an alco-test with a final reading of 107μg℅ — nearly five times the legally permitted limit of 22μg℅.
The courts have recently adopted a tougher stance for road offences. This week two men were handed down prison sentences for speeding.

Steve Hillage: Live At Rockpalast
Lunar rising: so-so 70s set from the golden-vibed guitarist.
By Tim Batcup published 15 May 15
Come 1977, having just about extricated himself from a disintegrating Gong, the erstwhile Submarine Captain's first two solo albums, Fish Rising and L, saw a dialling down of the absurdism and surrealism of his former collective, forging a far more guitar-centric take on spiritual idealism and aquarian prog fusion.
Always a truly pioneering player, his arpeggiated echo-led motifs and searing, bubbling runs perfectly complimented the evolution of synth technology and foreshadowed his own contributions to the trance genre in the early 90s.
Already released (on DVD at least) as Germany 77, this uneven set sees the first incarnation of his touring band perform on the legendary TV show in front of a curiously stilted, or possibly sedated, audience. Track listings on the CD and DVD differ for some unfathomable reason, though both contain wonderfully psychedelic interpretations of Donovan's Hurdy Gurdy Man and George Harrison's It's All Too Much, the latter's subtle drug connotations reclaimed and writ large.
The Solar and Lunar Musick Suites form the centrepiece of the show, as a pair fully illustrating Hillage's scope and fluency: riff-driven meditative musical mantras, mercifully free from the bombast and pretention that commonly afflicted his prog peers. Less impressive is a reedy and ethereal production job – too much air and water, not enough earth and fire – with an almost entire lack of bottom end.
Live Herald from 1979 set a high bar for Hillage live recordings, both in performance and audio quality, perhaps this is best viewed as a warm up./o:p

The Evansville Police Department gave an update on a Monday afternoon crash that resulted in a man being placed on life support.
EPD Chief Mike Thompson wrote in a news release that the crash happened at roughly 3:47 p.m. at the intersection of Yellowstone and Curtis Street. While officers were responding, they were advised that one of the male drivers shot himself in the head after crashing.
According to the release, an Evansville Community Service Officer came across the crash before calls to 911 started and assisted with life-saving measures before EMS and fire personnel arrived. They were able to get a pulse back on the male driver before he was transported to Wyoming Medical Center.

The female driver of the other vehicle was checked out by EMS, but she refused to be taken to the hospital. Her injuries were reportedly minor and she was "very emotionally affected by the nature of the incident."
Natrona County Victim Services was called to the scene to offer assistance to those impacted by the incident.
"The brown Ford F-150 was northbound on Curtis and was attempting to make a left-hand turn, the female driver saw the southbound red Dodge with its turn signal on to go right onto Yellowstone," the release states. "The male driver of the Dodge truck accelerated straight instead of turning as the turn signal indicated causing a head on crash with the Ford. Airbags in both vehicles were deployed. Witnesses of the crash stopped to render aid and spoke to both drivers, who indicated they were both ok, before the male retrieved a handgun and shot himself while sitting in his truck."
Alcohol is being investigated as a contributing factor to the accident.
Names are not being released out of respect for the drivers and their family members who are with a loved one at the hospital.

Are you and your sleep lab BFF? According to Ann Tisthammer, BS, RRT, vice president of clinical education at ResMed, you should be. She says to have a successful partnership, sleep providers must become the "best friend" of the sleep lab.
Big news on competitive bidding came in July when, after an industry-wide push, CMS granted HME providers a third extension in the first round. The 60-day extension pushed the due date for bids back to Sept. 25 and the registration deadline back to Aug. 27.
Is There Room in Sleep for Both of Us?
In an April 2007 Wachovia study on the HME sleep market, 47 percent of HME providers surveyed reported that their businesses had been impacted by sleep labs that sell sleep equipment.With sleep labs taking up that much of the market, are providers in danger of losing profitability and viability in the sleep market? Respiratory Management went to sleep providers and industry experts to find out what providers are doing to maintain a mutually rewarding relationship with sleep labs. If done right, the relationship could boost business for both parties while driving patient compliance.
To reimburse or not to reimburse? That is the question that has the sleep industry on the edge of its seat as CMS reconsiders its policy for in-home sleep testing. The question is also at the center of debate for sleep labs, sleep physicians and clinicians concerned about how the delivery of in-home tests might impact the health of sleep apnea patients.
For nebulizer medications, this year has been one of refinement. After many changes since the Medicare Modernization Act of 2003, reimbursement for nebulizer medications was further adjusted in the first half of the year.
Coaches, medical professionals, teachers and parents have all been reminded that attitude can lead to success or failure. The workplace is no exception.
On June 16, Regional Medical Supply (RMS) in Ypsilanti, Mich., hosted a free educational presentation on the Basics of Sleep and Obstructive Sleep Apnea. The event brought in approximately 50 new and current CPAP users from the community. The presentation addressed compliance issues and offered information on the benefits of quality sleep as well as the consequences of unrecognized and untreated sleep disorders.
Earlier this year, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) initiated a national coverage analysis (NCA) of the national coverage determination (NCD) for continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) devices.

Rosslare line threat
https://www.independent.ie/irish-new...-36366154.html
Surely a line that has operated for decades and managed to survive in all weathers can be protected in the 21st century. Rail to ports are a national asset in terms of strategic infrastructure and should be maintained as a priority. Instead we get such a warning without any plan to prevent the problem and preserve the line. CIE are masters at undermining the network firstly they claim a line is hard to maintain, then they reduce the service to a point where it is not adequate and then due to falling passenger numbers they propose closure. Rosslare is a critical port and more so now as a Brexit option for freight export avoiding UK. We should be opening lines to Rosslare not warning of closures. To think there was a Cork to Rosslare line in the 1960s that was a jewel running alongside the Blackwater river one can imagine what CIE is capable of deciding.
comcor 30-11-2017 17:21
Where is the threat supposed to be?
Bray to Wicklow seems the biggest risk, but there hasn't been any talk of closing that line.
If it's the line through Wexford town, there are much bigger problems than a threatened railway line.
The only other place it gets very close to the coast is a short section between Rosslare Strand and Rosslare Harbour.
ACustomer 30-11-2017 19:56
It's the section between the Strand and the harbour. There has been a lot of erosion long-term around that stretch. Suits some of the negative closure mentality of the powers that be.
Recently arrived in Rosslare on ferry and noticed no train to meet the boat despite many foot passengers and bikers with signs looking for lifts to places like Limerick, Cork,Waterford, Dublin etc. To think that not so long ago the rail service provided connections to all these places but we dismantled the rail connections. The rail station is almost anonymous at Rosslare barely a sign showing it , a clear indication that IE are running down the service so that soon they can indicate low usage data despite no trains to meet the ferry and no real service offered. Europort in name only as far as Irish Rail concerned.
Mark Gleeson 27-07-2018 09:50
Plenty of trains meet the ferry
Departures for Fishguard from Rosslare are
08:00 (no connection)
18:10 (13:36 from Connolly arrives 16:20)
Departures for Pembroke from Rosslare are
Arrivals from Fishguard at Rosslare
04:00 (05:41 to Dundalk)
16:25 (18:06 to Connolly)
Arrivals from Pembroke at Rosslare
Rail/Sail is only offered via Fishguard which 3 of the 4 daily arrivals/departures has a connection
Inniskeen 29-07-2018 08:22
Think your times at Rosslare are a bit off. Anyway the point being made is that there are now no rail connections to the southwest which was always the principal orogin/destination on the Irish side for the Fishguard route.
I suppose the stand-out point is that Irish Rail have no ambitions for rail development of any sort at Rosslare, BREXIT or no BREXIT.
Exactly, unique infrastructure has been uprooted towarDs Rosslare including from Waterford and the fact that no train meets the French ferries means that it is an incomplete service so passengers have no potion but to find another way. In Cherbourg on the other side it's the opposite case rail option working and available. Rosslare railway is going the way of many lines being gradually run down and can be justified by passenger numbers that simply reflect a poor service.

That allows for wriggle room if the ferry is late.
In the last year the Stena sailings between Rosslare and Fishguard have changed times and now 3 sailings out of 4 are rail connected at Rosslare.
Arrival Ex Fishguard at 04:00 (Rail connection at 05:35 Mon-Fri)
Arrival ex-Fishguard at 16:25 (Rail connection at 18:00 Mon-Sat; 17:40 Sun)
Departure ex-Fishguard at 18:10 (Rail connection arrives at 16:28 Mon-Sat; 16:35 Sun)
I'm not quite sure your doomsday statements about the Rosslare line have any basis in fact given that the number of rail connections have actually increased in the last year, not dropped.

https://www.irishtimes.com/news/plan...hness-1.623959
My point originated from seeing that no train met the incoming Stena ferry from France despite a host of people with signs looking for lifts to various parts of the country. If the service is not convenient why would anyone use it. Some of the departure times in the example look strage to me - Is some person going to stand around for one and a half hours waiting for a train to go?
The fact is that the running down of the connections to Rosslare did not begin today or yesterday its a continuous pattern over years. Previously Rosslare was connected to both Cork and Limerick through Waterford so the trend is clear.
Such recklessness is not the case either on the UK or the French side where rail to the ports is maintained including for freight but in IE the truck lobby is politically better connected.
Eddie 31-07-2018 18:56
Regrettably there has been no service between Rosslare and Waterford for about 4 years and before this, there was only one return service daily for some time before this, which was inadequate.
There are plenty of ways governments can and do waste plenty of tax payers money, but IMHO providing 2 or 3 return journeys to Limerick Junction daily from Rosslare to provide connections to other parts of the country would not rank high amongst those, especially when the infrastructure is still in place.
That sailing arrives and departs only on three days of the week and it has completely different times each day - not exactly easy to produce a rail timetable around that and keep everyone else on the line happy. I think you're expecting a bit much.
I think 90 mins is reasonable - that's what's offered at Fishguard and not far off it at Holyhead too. It allows wriggle time for ships/trains being late and for getting on and off the ship.
The fact remains that the connections at Rosslare to/from Dublin since May 2017 are substantially better than they have been for years, not worse as you are implying.
We need to be realistic too - foot passenger traffic has nosedived since Ryanair arrived - I think the connections offered now on the line to/from Dublin are as good as you're probably going to get.
I don't see the NTA reopening the South Wexford line at this stage unfortunately - I think that ship has sailed.
Traincustomer 08-08-2018 20:09
Why is there still no through ticketing?
The connectivity with the Fishguard sailings is indeed much better since May of last year but through ticketing ex-UK has still not been re-enabled (it was available in 2013).
A perusal of any of the UK-based sites such as National Rail Enquiries or Arriva Trains Wales gives, for instance, an absurd Carmarthen [CMN] to Wexford [WEX] journey of 19 to 21 hours routed via Holyhead! Talk about three sides of a square...
Whereas the journey from Carmarthen to Wexford via Fishguard-Rosslare is available twice a day taking just under 7.5 hrs daytime and just shy of 9 hours overnight.
Similarly one cannot purchase a SailRail ticket at any of the stations between Connolly and Rosslare.
Originally Posted by Traincustomer (Post 79564)

What's stopping for example Dun Laoghaire, Bray etc from issuing Sail Rail tickets or tickets to any other station in Ireland? Technology?
There is a list of stations which can issue Sail Rails
http://www.irishrail.ie/rail-fares-a...lrail-uk-ferry
Can be purchased online with Irish Ferries or by phone with Irish Rail or Stena line
The issue is that using the Rosslare-Fishguard route it is impossible to buy a sail/rail ticket using any Irish station other than Rosslare Europort as the origin/destination, despite the connections being restored.
That is the problem - not which stations you can walk in and buy a ticket.

Years ago in the card ticket era one could buy a ticket from any station to any station including the UK yet despite all the investment in machines today
we have a situation where ticket vending machines are restricted to selling to stations on that line only…
Originally Posted by Mark Gleeson (Post 79567)
Thanks Mark however that list has remained unchanged for donkey's years with not a single station retailing SailRail in either County Wicklow or Wexford... Actually O'Hanrahan station did sell them some years ago.
Stena Line only issue from Rosslare/Dublin Port onwards to the UK.
With all due respect Irish Ferries are irrelevant in this context as they don't offer SailRail via Rosslare-Pembroke (that route best caters for those using the Eurolines or Megabus coaches as the rail station is a mile distant from Pembroke Dock ferry terminal).

I have personally purchased tickets (at Connolly) for travel from a station on the Dublin-Connolly line to a UK station via Rosslare-Fishguard without any issue.
Indeed the Irish Rail website currently mentions a Wexford – Cardiff ticket…
Dublin to London €47 each way
Cork to Manchester €61 each way
Galway to Liverpool €61 each way
Limerick to Birmingham €62 each way
Wexford to Cardiff €51 each way
(link above to Irish Rail SailRail page)
Try doing it online via the arriva trains wales website.
Irish Rail will issue a ticket for any routing you want, via Rosslare or Dublin
On the UK side its dependent on the train timetable being loaded by the UK operators, this is not something Irish Rail is enforcing, the responsibility is with ATW.
I know all of that - my point all along was - if you want to do online you can't due to ATW not enabling it.

Sexual Harassment: Men Are Crying Foul, Too!
Note this recent article summary from AMEDNEWS.com. You'll find it here. The male sexual harassment trend is increasingly reported.
"Workplace sexual harassment complaints are decreasing overall. But men increasingly are the ones saying they have been victimized.
The medical setting is not immune. The image of the male physician or administrator running a practice staffed primarily by women still may be true in some cases, but evolving workplace roles have shaken things up significantly.
For example, the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston recently settled a case in which a male practice manager alleged that he had been sexually harassed by his female boss, and had been demoted when he complained. Due to a confidentiality agreement, none of the involved parties could comment.
Those who run medical practices are advised to take a second look at their policies on sexual harassment. Experts say that preventing potentially expensive lawsuits requires many of the same actions that should be taken when women are targeted.
"You should not worry about what variation it is," said Gregory Grant, co-chair of the employment and business litigation practice group of the law firm Shulman Rogers in Potomac, Md. "But you should keep an open mind that harassment can come in a variety of ways, including those we didn't think about before."
The number of sexual harassment complaints filed with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, declined from 15,889 in 1997 to 12,696 in 2009. The proportion filed by men, however, grew from 11.6% in 1997 to 16% in 2009. The agency does not collect data on the gender or sexual orientation of the alleged harassers, although those who have worked on these cases say the accused include men and women, gay and straight. These complaints are filed under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which covers companies of 15 employees or more. State laws may apply to even smaller businesses.
Experts suspect that the number of complaints from men are increasing because of a 1998 Supreme Court decision stating that Title VII also applied to same-sex harassment. Also, the recent economic downturn means that people are more likely to fight for the jobs they have, rather than just find new ones.
Sexual harassment is generally defined as unwelcome sexual conduct that either becomes a condition of employment or creates a hostile work environment. This can include demands for sex, unwanted touching, demeaning bawdy comments or the exhibition of pornographic images. Subtle forms of sexually charged behavior can become harassment if they are repeated, especially after those carrying it out have been asked to stop.
"Sexual harassment is not about attraction to that particular person," said Patricia Nemeth, a managing partner and president of Nemeth Burwell in Detroit. "It's about an abuse of power."
Experts advise practices to have a written policy that specifically addresses sexual harassment and prohibits retaliation if someone speaks up. The cases that have resulted in the largest settlements usually included charges of retaliation for complaining, such as a demotion or firing.
"Where people have run into problems is when they did not take the concerns seriously," Nemeth said.
Sample policies are usually available from medical societies or state government agencies. A report from the American Medical Association Board of Trustees, issued in December 2004, includes model policies.
A lot of small- to mid-size medical practices don't have such policies, but if your practice does have a policy and employees are made aware of it, "you can handle issues before they become big problems," said Beth A. Pletcher, MD, chair of the American Academy of Pediatrics Committee on Pediatric Workforce, who has written papers on this issue.
Policies should include a way for employees who feel they have been subject to unacceptable sexual behavior to voice their concerns confidentially. Larger companies usually will have employees go to human resource departments, but many medical practices are too small to have those.
Rather, experts suggest that the policy list several contacts, such as physicians who run the practice, office managers or an outside legal counsel. This reduces the risk that the only individual an employee with concerns can turn to is the person doing the harassing. Having no recourse also can lead to a large judgment against a practice.
"It needs to be someone trustworthy who believes that this is important," Dr. Pletcher said.
The policy should be backed up with training, which may be required in some states. Various webinars are available, and some are even free. Many lawyers working with medical practices also might be able to provide such training.
"Have a policy in place, and let people know you take it seriously," said Alan Lesnewich, a partner with Fisher & Phillips in Atlanta.
Any complaint should be investigated. If a problem is identified, it may be possible to address the issue with the perpetrator. "The person who is doing it may be oblivious to the fact that they are upsetting someone," Dr. Pletcher said.
Taking these steps may reduce the risk that a situation will end up in the courts. And even if the case does progress to this point, a practice that has taken appropriate action is less likely to be subject to fines and judgments, experts said. This is particularly important because physicians who own practices can be liable for their employees' behavior.
"Employers should encourage people to report it early, and then they are much less likely to be liable," said Ernest Haffner, a senior adviser with the EEOC."

Diana, William, Camilla: excerpts from Prince Harry's memoir
Rob Wilson | January 10, 2023 | World | No Comments
; DAY
The painful memory of his mother, his tensions with his family, his experience in Afghanistan: here are key excerpts from Prince Harry's autobiography published Tuesday in 16 languages.
These quotes are from from the French translation published by Fayard.
His mother Diana, who died in 1997
(His father tells him of Diana's death): "He was standing beside the bed, his eyes downcast. He looked like, with his white nightgown, a ghost in a play. (…) He put a hand on my knee. My dear child, Mom was in a car accident."
"What I remember, with stunning clarity, is that I did not cry. Not the slightest tear. Dad didn't hug me. (…) But he put his hand on my knee again, and he said: I'll be fine."
(During a visit to Paris in 2007, Harry asked his driver to cross the Alma bridge underground where Diana died):
Listen to Richard Martineau's editorial broadcast live every day at 8:20 a.m. via QUB radio:
"At 110 km/h, to be precise. 110. Yes. The exact speed Mom's car was traveling at, according to police, at the time of the accident. (…) I had always imagined it as a treacherous place, dangerous by nature, but it was just a simple short tunnel. No reason for anyone to die here. (…) Later, after having slept, I called Willy to tell him about my night. I didn't teach him anything. This tunnel, he had gone through it, too."
(He shares doubts with his brother about the investigation which implicates just the driver):
"We were going to issue a statement, asking together for the reopening of the investigation. Perhaps, organize a press conference. The high authorities dissuaded us from it".
His brother William
"Two years my senior, Willy was the Heir; me, the Substitute. It was not only the press that spoke of us in these terms, even if they did not hesitate to do so. Dad, Mom and Grandpa often used them too. And even Grandma. The Heir and the Substitute, no judgment in these nicknames, but no ambiguity either. I was the shadow, the understudy, plan B."
(In 2019, during an altercation with William):
"Meg (Meghan Markle, Prince Harry's wife, Ed) is difficult, he said. (…) He put down his glass, threw another insult at me, then threw himself on me. It all happened so fast. So fast. He grabbed me by the collar, breaking the collar I was wearing in the process, and threw me to the ground. I fell on the dog bowl, which broke under my weight and the pieces cut into my back."
(During a discussion with William and Charles in 2021):
"The conversation escalated to the point that Dad finally put the kibosh on it by putting up his hands. That's enough! He stepped between us, staring back and forth into our faces crimson with anger. Please, boys, don't make my last years a nightmare.
"I looked at Willy (…) Everything appeared to me as a whole: the annoyed expression he had always affected in front of me; his disturbing baldness, more advanced than mine; his famous resemblance to Mom, which dissipated over time. (…) My beloved brother, my arch-enemy, how could we have come to this?"
His stepmother Camilla, now queen consort
(About their first meeting):
"I said to myself: it's nothing. Like a sting. (…) I keep from this meeting the vague memory of a Camilla as calm (or stunned with boredom) as me. (…) I remember wondering, just before we met, if she would be mean to me. If she was like all the horrible stepmothers in fairy tales. It turned out not."
(About her and William's opposition to Charles's remarriage):
"We accept Camilla, we told her. But please don't marry her. Just be together, Dad. He did not answer. But she does. At once. Shortly after our summary introductions, she embarked on a long-term operation, entering the campaign to accede to the status of wife and, ultimately, to the Crown.
Her mission in Afghanistan as a helicopter pilot (2012-2013)
"My figure, therefore: twenty-five (killed, editor's note). I got no satisfaction from it. But I wasn't ashamed of it either. (…) In the heat and fog of combat, these twenty-five downed targets did not appear to me as people. Without it, you can't kill. We cannot hurt. They weren't people, but chess pieces being removed from the board, bad guys being wiped out before they killed good guys."
His costume scandal Nazi in 2005
"I called Willy and Kate to ask their opinion. The Nazi uniform, they answered together. I rented it, along with a fake mustache to add a layer of ridiculousness, and went home. I tried on my costume. Kate and Willy squealed with laughter.
Drugs and Loss of Virginity
(At 17):
"I was definitely taking cocaine at that time. At someone's country house, during a hunting weekend, I had been offered a rail, and I had consumed it on other occasions since. It wasn't all that fun, and it didn't particularly put me in the same state of euphoria as everyone else around me apparently, but it did make me feel something different."
(His deflowering at the same age):
"A very recent episode, and not very glorious, with an older woman. She loved horses, passionately, and she treated me a bit like a young stallion. A quick break-in, a little slap on the butt and presto, she had sent me back to the paddock. A detail, among all those, many, which had made this experience a disaster: it had happened outside, in a field of grass, behind a crowded pub".

Quick, clean up before the Cleaner arrives! Moodscope blog.
I've never employed a cleaner, but my old landlady did. One of her most endearing characteristics was her regular panic to clean up before her cleaner arrived!
She had very messy children, and her thought was that it was not fair for the cleaner to have to clear up after her kids. General cleaning was right and only fair, but she drew a line when it came to child-created chaos. She felt the children's mess was a reflection on her, and she needed to keep up appearances.
This reminds me of my own attitude to Moodscope. I suspect the vast majority of us use Moodscope because life is less than we hoped it would be. Life is challenging - sometimes too challenging. So it's time for me to confess!
When I'm having a really bad time, I'll read the blog, but I won't do my score for that day! The blog is regularly a comfort, but I don't want to mess up my stats - how crazy is that? It's like keeping up appearances. I think it's as crazy as rushing around cleaning the house before the cleaner gets here, don't you agree?
So let me encourage you as I encourage myself. Moodscope is here for us to track the ups and the downs - that's its whole purpose. It doesn't judge us - it just helps us observe. As such, its usefulness and accuracy are dependent upon honest reporting on a regular basis – it is not about appearances.
Don't delay, plot your score today!


Meek Mill's highly anticipated "Championships" album, his first album since his release from prison. Prior to Championships release, Meek Mill has been dropping a bit more information on the album.
Meek Mill has revealed a bit more information on his new album ahead of its release this Friday. The rapper's new project, Championships will consist of 18 songs that he and his team were working on up until Thanksgiving. The album includes features from Fabolous and Anuel AA, who featured on "Uptown Vibes." Meek Mill's collab with Cardi B will also be included on the project which seemingly finds the "Money" rapper addressing payola allegations made from Meek's ex, Nicki Minaj. "I been hardworking and humble," she raps.
Hopefully, Meek drops off the entire tracklist soon, but it's definitely looking like a promising project.
Meek Mill has been splitting his time between Baltimore, Miami, and New York, where he's recording his forthcoming fourth album, Championships. Since he was released from prison in April, Mill has become something of a criminal-justice-reform activist, but the rapper has long been a fixture in hip-hop, first as a member of the Philadelphia group the Bloodhoundz and later as a solo artist.

State Awards $25.4M for Affordable Housing and Transportation Projects in Santa Ana
The Legacy Square development is scheduled to break ground in late 2020.
July 01, 2020, 12:55PMSteven Sharp Comments
The California Strategic Growth Council has awarded $25.4 million for affordable housing development, public realm improvements, and transportation projects in Santa Ana.
Including in the grant is $15 million in funding for Legacy Square, a mixed-use affordable housing complex which National CORE is planning next to a future Orange County Streetcar stop at Santa Ana Boulevard and French Street. Plans call for replacing two buildings owned by the Santa Ana United Methodist Church with a 93-unit apartment complex reserved for formerly homeless persons and low-income households earning between 30 and 60 percent of the area median income. The new housing would be supplemented by 1,750 square feet of ground-floor flex space, 3,800-square-foot community room, and supportive services provided by Mercy House.
SVA Architects is designing Legacy Square, which would use contemporary and Mission Revival style buildings to complement surrounding architecture. The buildings would be clad in smooth stucco, brick veneer, and metal, with publicly-accessible open spaces such as courtyard and a street-facing plaza.
The grant awarded by the Strategic Growth Council also includes $2 million for transportation and urban greening projects in the surrounding neighborhood, including new street trees and a pocket park at the intersection of Mortimer Street and Santa Ana Boulevard.
Other infrastructure projects slated for funding include new bike lanes along Santiago Street, sidewalk repair, the installation of high-visibility crosswalks, and a safe route to school for neighborhood families.
$8 million of grant money will go toward signal improvements to Metrolink's Orange County line, which serves the Santa Ana Regional Transportation Center six blocks east. The proposed upgrades are part of Metrolink's SCORE program, which is designed to allow for increased capacity and service across its more than 500-mile network.
National CORE, the developer behind Legacy Square, also announced its intent to work with several community-based organizations on the project, including The Bicycle Tree and Taller San Jose Hope Builders.
The housing complex is scheduled to break ground in December 2020 and open for move-ins in December 2023.

2016 is here and CAD is becoming more and more useful both as a job and a hobby. It can be very expensive though, especially for someone that is starting out. I have compiled a list of the best free CAD alternatives in 2016.
SketchUp yes freeware no fast and easy to learn, fun to use, perfect for hobbyists.
Keep in mind that for every enthusiast, hobbyist, professional engineer, architect and programmer there is a software that fits them. These 3 choices have been made from my point of view (a mechanical engineer), they're applicable for other areas too!
It's simple and has a fun vibe, you can make anything you envision and you can make it fast. It does have some lack in usability but if you're starting out then I would highly recommend this piece of software.
SketchUp is based around the idea that you can get good at it in a matter of days. This is because they've managed to emulate the feeling of working with a pen and paper. There are a few issues with SketchUp which are based on the fact that a lot of tools are missing. These tools might be available in other free CAD alternatives but if you decide to pay for their professional version you will have a ton of plugins available which will fix this issue. Not only that but Google (Yeah… SketchUp is Google product) keeps an insane library with literally thousands upon thousands of designs that you can download and modify.
If you're into schematics and don't need or want 3D then Draftsight is one of the best free alternatives to AutoCAD. If you are used to 3D modelling it can be a bit difficult getting into, don't let this stop you from trying out this amazing piece of software!
Ah, the beauty of open source!
This software is much more than just drafting and 3D models, it can do almost anything. It is a whole suite filled with things such as simulation, meshing and rendering. Being open source has its perks, it is 100% free and always will be.
FreeCAD is an amazing free alternative to SolidWorks and Autodesk Inventor, it might not be as polished but for the price you are paying ($0) it has a high standard. A powerful and useful software that any CAD artist worth his name will at least know about.

Budha Venkanna serious warning to GVL..
Telugu Desam Party (TDP) Member of Legislative Council (MLC) Budha Venkanna spit fire at Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Member of Parliament (MP), G.V.L. Narsimha Rao, for his comments against minister Nara Lokesh. Warning GVL of serious consequences, he said that the BJP man was a stooge of Prime Minister (PM) Narendra Modi. He has not right to comment on Nara Lokesh, who is struggling to bring normalcy in cyclone-hit Srikakulam district, Budha said. GVL should in fact learn from Chandrababu as to how to work hard,he said.

Fiction Tatty
PreviousFind the Lady NextChildren of the Dead End
By Christine Dwyer-Hickey
Published to huge acclaim, Christine Dwyer Hickey's Tatty was hailed by the critics as a masterpiece, and went on to become a bestseller. With the brutal clarity and touching honesty of a child, Tatty tells the story of her alcoholic family.
B-format, paperback | 224pp | ISBN 978-1-90430-151-6 | Release Date: February 2004
Published to huge acclaim, Christine Dwyer Hickey's Tatty was hailed by the critics as a masterpiece, and went on to become a bestseller. With the brutal clarity and touching honesty of a child, Tatty tells the story of her alcoholic family. The result is a stunning portrait of a disintegrating family, and the child lost within it.
Praise for Tatty:
" Christine Dwyer Hickey's fourth novel, Tatty, beautiful and heartbreaking, confirms that her skills are perfected, and her exceptional talent is far from exhausted. Such is Hickey's power that, as a reader, you'll soon feel that you have become the very necessary person for Tatty - someone who knows everything about her, and longs to protect her. And when the book ends so suddenly that you feel you are abandoning her, the effect is shattering. Tatty devastates in a way that only the most unsentimental novels can."
"A bare, lyrical story of a Dublin childhood that will rank among the very best of Irish books this year. It's not easy to make writing seem this simple. Like all good stories, it never judges itself, and so it remains open, charming, dignified, even when the subject matter drifts towards the harrowing. A really fine book, evocative of a not-so-distant past."
— Colum McCann
"The intricacies of class are brilliantly observed through the eyes of a distressed child. [The] achievement is the creation of Tatty's voice, a voice that guides the reader through this world from the child's limited perspective...Dwyer Hickey successfully juxtaposes the ordinary and the extraordinary."
"Dwyer Hickey's mastery of the child's voice is spectacular and her acute understanding of the mentality of children leads to some hilarious moments."
— Sunday Tribune
"Dwyer Hickey sets the scene beautifully. A poignant humour permeates the pages of this excellent novel. In the wrong hands Tatty could have been a gratuitously violent read. That it retains a quiet dignity is testament to the skill of this author. A thought-provoking, insightful read, Tatty is beautifully produced by New Island."
— Books Ireland
"Dwyer Hickey gives Tatty a fragile resilience: deeply damaged, she still feels that she must be strong. It makes for authentic fiction."
"Tatty is a book that will haunt you long after you've turned the last page. The author vividly evokes the simplicity of childhood, so much so that the reader can identify freely with Tatty despite her disturbing situation. The book is not without its lighter moments, and the humour is much needed. This is not only an entertaining tale but a heartbreaking account of a disturbed childhood that makes for compulsive reading."
— RTE.ie
" The strength of this book lies in the heartbreaking honesty of its child narrator's voice. Deceptively simple and impossible to put down, Tatty is a powerful, tragic tale of a disintegrating family that's sparse but very well-written. Messages floated up between the lines as much as the words spoke for themselves, so much so that tears were shed more than once. A power-house of a book. "

Women on trial visit scene of attack on North Korean scion
By Associated Press, 25/10/2017
SEPANG, Malaysia (AP) — The two women accused of killing the half brother of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un were taken back to the scene of the crime on Tuesday as their murder trial moved from the courtroom to the Malaysian airport for a three-hour inspection tour under heavy police guard.
The judge, prosecutors, defense lawyers and representatives of the women's home countries were escorted inside the Kuala Lumpur airport by heavily armed police on a tour meant to give the court a better perspective of events as they unfolded.
Indonesian Siti Aisyah and Doan Thi Huong of Vietnam appeared subdued at the start of the tour, which took a break about an hour later when Aisyah became emotional. She was seen sobbing quietly. She and Huong were given water to drink and when the tour resumed, both were being pushed around in wheelchairs.
Aisyah's lawyer Gooi Soon Seng said the women, who were wearing heavy bulletproof vests and handcuffed, were given wheelchairs because they complained of exhaustion.
High Court Judge Azmi Ariffin visited the check-in kiosk in the budget terminal where the two women allegedly smeared VX nerve agent onto Kim Jong Nam's face on Feb. 13. The judge followed the path Kim walked to the airport clinic seeking help and retraced the movement of the two women, who were seen on security footage rushing to restrooms afterward to wash their hands.
Security videos of the murder were shown at the trial earlier this month and "the exercise today is to see for ourselves the actual locations and which cameras recorded the scenes," Gooi said.
"I believe the visit to the crime scene will help strengthen the prosecution's case because it will allow the judge to follow the women's trail and understand why they took that path," prosecutor Wan Shaharuddin Wan Ladin told The Associated Press before the tour began.
Police clad in black uniforms, many carrying rifles and wearing masks, formed a security ring around the group as they toured the busy airport for more than three hours. Officials said the trial will return to the courtroom on Wednesday, with the cross examination of the police investigating officer.
Huong and Aisyah, who have pleaded not guilty, are the only suspects detained in the brazen assassination of Kim, an outcast from North Korea's ruling family who lived abroad in virtual exile for years. Their defense lawyers have said the women were duped by suspected North Korean agents into believing they were playing a harmless prank for a TV show.
Prosecutors contend the women's conduct showed that they knew they were handling poison.
South Korea's spy agency has claimed the attack was part of a carefully set plot by Kim Jong Un to kill a brother he reportedly never met. Kim Jong Nam was not known to be actively seeking influence over his younger brother but had spoken out publicly against his family's dynastic rule and because he was the eldest son of the late leader Kim Jong Il he could have been seen as a potential rival to Kim Jong Un.
Since the trial opened Oct. 2, witnesses have testified that Kim died from acute VX poisoning and that the banned chemical agent was found on his face and clothing and on the women's clothing and on Huong's fingernail clippings. A chemical weapon expert has also told the court that VX can be safely removed by careful washing within 15 minutes of exposure.

'I Put That On Me': Raiders GM Expresses Regret Trading For Antonio Brown
Filed Under:Antonio Brown, Mike Mayock, Oakland Raiders, Pittsburgh Sports, Pittsburgh Steelers
PITTSBURGH (KDKA) — It's a saga that never seems to end.
In March, the Steelers sent Antonio Brown to the Oakland Raiders in exchange for a third and fifth-round pick.
On Friday, Raiders' General Manager Mike Mayock expressed regret for making the trade, which ended with Brown never playing a down for the Raiders.
"I put that on me," he said in an interview with The Athletic. "My anticipation was that he was coming off a situation in Pittsburgh where he wants to prove everybody wrong and he wants to ride into the Hall of Fame…I really thought we were going to get the best out of Antonio Brown and we didn't. We weren't able to get anything out of him. So at the end of the day, in hindsight, we lost a third-round and a fifth-round pick and I can't tell you how much pain this causes me."
The Raiders released Brown in September after the wide receiver had threatened to punch General Manager Mike Mayock and also demanded the Raiders release him in an Instagram post.
From there, Brown signed with the Patriots on a one-year, $15 million deal.
In one game, he scored a touchdown and had 56 yards in a 43-0 Patriots victory.
Just five days later, the Patriots cut Brown.
Brown has not been in the NFL since being cut by the Patriots.
He did have a workout with the New Orleans Saints but it did not result in a contract.
