I've been using Ubuntu (currently 13.04) for several months now. I was wondering if it's typical to have to reset compiz and unity (with
dfconf reset -f /org/compiz
setsid unity) after every linux-headers/linux-generic upgrade.
Right after that on the first boot, I am prompted with the desktop having no bars. I tried looking for other cleaner methods such as just re-installing the ATI proprietary drivers, cleaning the compiz-1 folder, but none of them worked.
Is there any other way to prevent this behavior other than resetting both compiz and unity configurations?

|How many hours do you run your fans on your seedlings?
I have been running the fan (on oscillation)for about three hours in the a.m. and 3 hours in the p.m. with the lights on from 6a.m. to 9 p.m.
Does anyone think I should change this cycle, all the plants seem to be doing very well but I am looking for seasoned growers input, thanks for any ideas.
Follow-Up Postings:
|I'd be curious to know, too. I just put a non-oscillating fan on my tomato seedlings, a small one set on low. The easiest thing for me was to connect it to the same timer that runs the lights, so when the lights go on, so does the fan. That's about 15 hours a day.
Like Christopher, I'd love to know what the seasoned growers do.
Here is a link that might be useful: my blog

|I did the same thing as loribee2.
The FAQ says to use a fan, but it doesn't specify how long it should be on.
I've love to know what seasoned growers do, too.

|I dont think there is a right or wrong answer on this one. If your seedlings are really leggy or really wet, I would run it 15 or so hours when your lights are on, but if your seedlings look stocky and are watered correctly 3-6 hours should be good. I do move my fan, but I run it all the time, it is just easier that way. In nature the wind does not blow all the time, but a gentle 16 hour breeze is no harm. I also do a stronger breeze starting about 2 weeks before I start to harden them off, so they are ready for nature.
So all in all, no real answer :)
|Muffin fans used in electronics are available from electronic salvage companies for about $3. They are rejected because they are too noisy or some other reason, but work fine in the greenhouse. I hang them from the roof on wires and run them 24/7, as their wattage is so low to be negligible. As far as I can tell they run forever. Al

Oct. 31 (Bloomberg) -- Ukraine should be able to offer a better price for milling wheat than Russia in North African and Middle Eastern markets after it won a tender in Egypt on Oct. 29, according to UkrAgroConsult.
Egypt, the world's biggest wheat importer, bought 120,000 metric tons of Ukrainian wheat, half from Toepfer International at $247.92 a ton and half from Venus International at $249.30 a ton. Ukrainian wheat was $8 a ton less than the lowest Russian offer, the Kiev-based researcher said today by e-mail.
"We will be competing with Russia all the time on the Egypt market now," Liza Malyshko, an analyst at UkrAgroConsult, said by phone today. ''I think Ukraine will be able to sustain a lower price in this market. A lot will depend on the domestic price. Internal prices in Russia have started to increase and we see that this trend is starting here.''
Ukrainian authorities scrapped a 9 percent export tax for wheat, which came into force on July 1, from Oct. 22. The government expects Ukraine's grain harvest to increase by 35 percent to 53 million tons this year, helped by favorable weather. The Agriculture Ministry expects 27 million tons of grain to be shipped this year, Mykola Prysyazhnyuk, the minister, said on Oct. 19.
Buyers' interest in Ukrainian wheat and the number of traders at tenders suggest that exporters will buy in the domestic market and that the price for milling wheat will gradually increase, according to the researcher.
Wheat prices are not seen declining in Russia nor in Ukraine until the status of the 2012 harvest is known, according to Malyshko.

Gee, its going to be a bugger getting off the plane in Sydney on Monday... and spending the damn day working. I've got a draft report to finalise and get to the client on Tuesday. I don't think I'm looking forward to that. I am looking forward to getting back here in a month's time though.
Hanna, (Hannies really), Willemijn and I headed out to get an early meal and have a look around. It turned into a fascinating journey... we had a tidbit, then moved to another area, and ended up being dropped off at the main mosque here. Visiting was over, but one of the main guides grabbed us and took us around anyhow... showed us the Sultans graves, described the whole mosque / prayers bit.... got the girls going a bit by telling them that menstruating women aren't pure... and so on. Eddy (our guide) went to Islamic school for 3 years from the age of 8. At one stage, Willemijn bent over... and exposed her lower back / upper butt.... in the mosque grounds. Eddy had a look of horror... grabbed her shirt and pulled it down. Women praying in the mosque can only expose their face and the palms of their hands.
We ended up wandering through the grounds of the Sultan's Palace (the current Sultan is 14 years old)... and then going miles to a street restaurant. Dinner included fried pippies, boiled turtledove eggs, capcay, tempe, etc, etc. Washed down with avocado juice lashed with chocolate.
Quite a feast. $15 for 4 of us... well, 7 of us actually. Three 12 year old boys turned up looking for money for food... so I sat them down and handed them our left overs. They were still hungry, so they all polished off a Nasi Goreng each too.
Eddy was somewhat smitten with Willemijn... so we rescued her but buggered it up a bit. I slipped him some money.. and so did W. He did OK for himself. I'll get some photos up eventually.
There's an 88 yo American guy here at the guesthouse... with his girlfriend... a local Muslim lady who'd be no older than 45 at a guess. He's well looked after and she looks content, if not happy.

About the same money then... except for the grey imports. Let's see how this one lasts... I drowned a Canon Ixus 105 last year when I dropped the Katoom on a slimy causeway up on the Liverpool Plains.... I'd been keeping it in the unzipped top of my tank bag... and it looked a bit sad staring up at me from the bottom of the creek. The funny thing about the elephant doing the Nikon S6100 in was that it was in my shorts pocket at the time... and I had my D7000 hanging around my neck. The D7000 survived us being tossed, luckily, Three weeks later though and I've still got a sore leg.
OK... I've wandered off to Sun Plaza here in Medan... its a major shopping centre and there's lots of affluence on display there. Lots. Medan is Indonesia's third largest city and according to Lonely Planet, around 30% of Indonesia's exports come from Northern Sumatra, so there's some wealth here to go with the poverty and beggars. I went there the other night with Hanna and the two Dutch guys. I shouted them a half beer each at the sushi bar. Yep...you're the last of the big spenders, Ian.... it cost me just shy of $30 for two German beers. I'll stick to the Bintang at $3 for a large bottle (around a pint).
Anyhow... I've stocked up on oil for when I return. Stanley, from the guesthouse told me where to go at the Plaza to get the good oil. Its damn hard to find decent oil here and I want to do an oil change, put a new chain on and fix a few things up when I get back. I know I'm missing at least 8 bolts.... some of which I won't be able to replace because I've lost the fittings that went with them. My luggage rack has been held on by precisely zero bolts for weeks now.... not a single one... but its been a ripper... it doesn't need them... although it moves around a bit when the luggage isn't on. My numberplate is ziptied on now too. Did I ever mention that the roads here are a little bit rough? I thought I was going to get decent mileage out of my Mitas E09 front tyre, but its showing significant wear now, at 4,500km - the blocks are worn down at the back, presumably from the hard braking. The rear, a Mefo Super Explorer is shot at the same mileage... which is 50% better than I got from the last pair of tyres, perhaps because I've toned down the wheelies and the roads are a bit more open, if no smoother?
I got a funny story from Stanley... he's rather finicky about security. Made sure there's nothing removable left on the bike, got it covered up and locked away too. So Stanley tells me about El Conquistador... who stayed here a few days before I crossed his path. He wanted to go into town to get something... and Stanley told him to take local transport, not his bike. Nope... and off he went. That's where he lost the GoPro camera that El Conquistador told me had snapped off. Someone pinched it while he was shopping. I'll make no further comment on that one.
So, I got the girls at the Plaza to sort out my dongle... and I should be able to get a few Danau Toba pics up... Lessee
Lake (Danau) Toba.
The view from the restaurant/bar at Carolinas, where both Connie and I were staying
She was in the cheapest rooms at about $9. I spent up big and was in a big room with supposedly hot water at $15.50. At least the chill was off the water... we were at a bit over 800 metres altitude here.
This is the village we blundered into when lost, whilst looking for a tourist site.
The Batak house that the girls (17yo and 20yo) invited us into for coffee. Not exactly my sized door.
There was a dog in there btw... the girls said it climbs the stairs, but we didn't witness that. These Batak houses have an odd number of steps. Criminals used to be made to sleep in houses with an even number of steps. Apparently there's a reason....
The girls
The rest of the mob... including dad (the 58yo guy with cataracts). I've been making some enquiries here in Medan, but haven't pinned down a solution yet.
I reckon we can get him sorted out, I'll have a chat to the Fred Hollows Foundation when I get back to Sydney and go from there.
Did I ever mention that I don't like Chupa Chups. Dunno why
Ahh, coffee.
Incidentally, that mat is what they sleep on. Not exactly inner springs... but they aren't that harsh. I've had a massage or two laying on those sort of mats and its survivable.
Connie and I both thought this daughter was around 14, but she says she's 17
Back at Carolinas, I heard a noise in the restaurant ceiling. I'm no cat fan... but apparently Hanna wants me to send her this photo
..... and on that note, I'm about to pack and flit back to Sydney for a month to keep a couple of nervous clients happy. Its a bummer of a trip home from here. I've got to be at Medan airport at 9am to fly to KL... which takes an hour or so... then at 11:45pm its off to Sydney for a 9:45am arrival... and straight to work.... on Easter Monday. Fortunately, I scored an English language book at the plaza.
I'll get the rest of the photos up here over the next week or two and I'll be back here on May 8th. The plan is to go north of here a tad... to see the Oran-gutans in the wild - one or two days trekking involved, but there's 5,000 or so at a place about 90km up the road. Might try to get to Banda Aceh too before choofing off to Penang, Malaysia.

I'm hoping all my friends on the West and Northern coasts of Sumatra are OK.
The news of the 8.6 and 8.2 earthquakes is horrible... although its sounding like there's no major tsunami.
To put a face to this... these lovely girls on the Lake Toba ferry were all from Banda Aceh.... a city which lost 60,000 dead in the 2004 tsunami.
Connie, my American friend has just emailed to say she's OK - she'd gone to Nias Island... not the place to be if there's a tsunami.... but is back on Sumatra and up in the hills at Bukittinggi.
Again, I hope the rest of the people I know over there are OK

Well, I found that whole earthquake experience horrible... knowing so many of the people there... and being here in Sydney, watching from afar.
I flew home from Medan to Sydney, via Kuala Lumpur on Sunday/Monday... and got straight into work after I got off the plane - for another 14 hours. Deadline met, I crashed into bed and its taken me till now to start to feel human again.
So, now I'm trying to think about what's needed to go back with me (chain, tyres, the fourth set of rear indicators and some more bolts... and more). I've been on the phone to the three-letter acronym agency that do bike registration here now and they were useless. It will be interesting trying to get the bike registered. I need an inspection certificate... but Indonesia don't do inspections. The Poms have a system where you don't need to keep paying the full fees if you are overseas. Our mob though want me to pay insurance in case I injure someone in Australia... while I'm out of the country. Pricks.
Anyhow... enough of that. Let's bring this ride report up to date.
Back to Lake Toba. Connie and I finally found good the 200-year-old stone sarcophagus of King Sidabutar. It was right under our noses, in the village of Tomok, a hop skip and jump from where we were staying, in Tuk Tuk. We must've put in 40km looking for something that was 3km from our hotel.... but it was good fun looking around anyhow.
Here he is. Apparently his sarcophagus is the shape of a ship.
Plenty of carved statues around there too
and even some cuties
Right next door, life goes on... drying out the corn crop
... and trying to flog dried/smoked fish to the tourists
I did buy a few trinkets here.... a thin hand-made blanket/scarf thing and a bamboo noise-maker for the kids soccer games. I was surprised to get it through customs - but I declared it and did. I felt pretty sorry for the ladies flogging stuff - there were lots of them and not many tourists. Toba is an absolutely brilliant tourist spot... but there isn't an airport within cooee... so with the advent of cheap point to point airfares, tourism here has died.
A quick stop at a bike shop to get a screw.... for the headlight that was falling out.
The guy there had a daughter who was scared of the big bule monster and his camera... but I caught her eventually.
We headed off in the other direction... looking for Ambarita, just north of Tuktuk - rated as one of the musts when visiting Samosir. Its a traditional village with King Siallagan's stone chairs. These traditional Batak houses are interesting. The lines on the front symbolise the continuous nature of the family.
We paid our 40c entry fee and got the current King as our guide. He explained that he - and all Bataks - know his grandfather's grandfather's brother's descendants. Did you follow that, or do I need to draw a diagram? We got the diagram.... a mud map. I suppose I should point out that it pissed down on us between Tomok and Ambarita... and we didn't have any wet weather gear with us. Such is Asia.
Here's the King, giving us the full rundown on the stone chairs... with me being allowed to sit in the King's chair.
These chairs are 400-500 years old. They were used in a tribal council arrangement to determine the fate of baddies. Generally a thief would get off by paying reparations, most of which went to the King. Real baddies (including those who got among the King's wives) would be sent off for execution. Being pretty fair chaps, they'd test the baddie to see if he was magical or not... they'd slice him all over with a sharp knife. If he didn't bleed he was magical. If he did... they rubbed lime juice and chillies in to the wounds... to soften him up a bit.
This is the execution site.
Some Aussie bloke volunteered for a demo to the assembled crowd. Um... that'd be Connie...
Afterwards, they carved them up and ate them.. the King getting first pick. Maybe the lime and chillies were really a marinade?
Wandering through the tourist traps... there must've been about 40 stalls all trying to attract Connie and I... the only tourists there... I spotted a "nice" bronze walking stick. The stallholder wanted 600,000... and I was short on cash, with no ATMs on the island. Bugger.
Some local details
Oh... I nearly forgot. One of the nice touches on the houses is the fertility displays. 4 breasts.
You've got to give credit to a culture that reveres breasts, eh?

I'd been off and sorted out my airfare from Medan to KL... I had intended to get there by the end of this leg of the trip, but I'm not going to be rushed anywhere. If there's places to stop and enjoy... I'm going to do it. I extended a Lake Toba a couple of times, for example... as I had at Padang.
Connie played old fart... and I headed out that night by myself. My ticket agent had invited me to her Karaoke bar. I got there and found her canoodling on the couch with her boyfriend... so disappeared after one beer. It wasn't "that" sort of Karaoke bar btw.... just music and beer. Some locals came in while I was there and strewth... one of the girls could sing. She was brilliant, but I left them to it and wandered across the road to a blues bar. There were only some locals playing pool. Here's the shy barmaid...
I bought a couple of beers for the winners of the pool games, which they appreciated.
I loaded up in the morning and headed towards Berastagi, the back way. I'd managed to get a bit of cash advanced on my credit card... one of the benefits of staying at the upmarket ($15.50 a night) Carolina's. Rooms can be had around Tuk Tuk for about $3.00.... in the dives.
So... $40 later, I loaded up the walking stick
and headed up the hill. I spotted lots of these above ground burial crypts. This one was where the current King's brother (the previous King) is buried, but I saw one that had five levels. They go into the bottom slot for 10-15 years... until the family raises enough funds for a decent sendoff... then the bones are consolidated and they go upstairs a level.
Not a bad road, but littered with fallen rocks everywhere.
Took a coffee break here
Overlooking the northern end of Lake Toba
I probably should've stopped here to see what the go was. It looked like a wedding... but I decided not to intrude. I still had my wet weather poncho on... or what was left of it. I'd lost the left arm and the rest of it was shredding a bit when I opened the throttle up a bit.
The road was getting narrow and was peppered with potholes
I posted this shot already... but it put the heebies up me enough for me to post it again. This sort of thing normally gets a palm frond or branch stuck in it to attract your attention. Mine was diverted to the broken road and puddle just before it... and I damn near went in to this.
I couldn't figure this one out. Designed to stop buses and trucks using the road... but I couldn't figure out why. I had to duck to go under it... and there were plenty of minibuses after this that wouldn't have fitted under it. I dunno
I was getting ready for a break when I came up to this one horse town... a few houses, a copshop and a cafe. I pulled in for a coffee... asked for one and got tea, asked for food and got nods... so I pointed to some eggs and held up three fingers. Got three boiled eggs. Total bill $1.20. The guys here were giving the dark chap a bit of curry. He wanted money and I offered food, but he said no.
Incidentally, the guy pointing to my front wheel is another cop... packing a pistol in his waistband. I tried to get into my pack to give that guy a shirt, but couldn't get anywhere without a total unpack... so I gave him a dollar... and the guys who'd been giving him a hard time all thanked me. I dunno what the deal was.
I ended up on a more populated road and eventually stopped for another coffee. This view was totally built out on a corner by a succession of little cafes.
The monkeys were all in the rubbish 50' below us... chomping away on whatever people threw them.
Ahhh - Berastagi. The only town I've ever seen with a cabbage monument
Its also got two active volcanos. Gunung Sibayak, which I climbed, and the currently erupting Gunung Sinabung, which is off limits.
I stayed at the Highlands Hotel - a weird place with only me and one other guest in the hotel... and over 100 villas, of which only one was occupied.
A lot of these villas were crumbling, derelict
Really weird.

Thanks Maverick. I'm almost done with this part of the trip... but I'll be back at it again in two and a half weeks. I just booked my flight back into Medan (at a fraction of the cost of local airfares.... a normal fare from KL to Medan is around $53, but mine cost another $20 with luggage and premium seating.
Just to show why that town I was in, Berastagi, has a statue of a cabbage in the main street, here's the view opposite my hotel.
I was staying at the top end of town in more ways than one. $30 a night and up on the slopes of a volcano for starters. That doesn't mean its all top end stuff... although I did have hot water and a flush toilet... that actually worked and didn't even have a sign asking me to not put paper in it. A nice touch was the tape over the powerpoint near the holder for the shower head. You could lift the shower head up well beyond this point too btw. It always pays to check the electrics out in bathrooms in Asia...
The main reason for stopping at Berastagi, only 75 km or so short of my departure point from Sumatra was to climb Gunung Sibayak a relatively small volcano. As usual, I made a couple of wrong turns finding it.... paid my 40 cents entry fee and rode up to the top carpark. Most people were walking the access road, as it was a bit steep and narrow for the minibuses. I stopped to speak to a small group just before the top carpark and was lucky enough, after I couldn't find the access track, to see them disappear into the jungle. It was a German girl, her husband and sister and two local guides. They literally stepped into the jungle. I could just hear them and chased as hard as I could, on foot of course. Eventually, I caught them and we broke out onto the proper trail. It'd just been the guides taking a shortcut.
We got up a bit, out of the jungle and could see the volcano summit
There were plenty of vents as we got towards the top and it was quite noisy.
These were real screamers
One of our guides giving some scale to the vents
Sibayak is 2,212 metres tall, 7,257'. Wiki said it last erupted in 1887, although the guides said it went off about 50 years ago. Its bigger twin in the area, Gunung Sinabung is a bit taller, just over 8,000' and is erupting at present. It was mostly cloud covered, although I did see the brown eruption cloud a few times. I've got a rather crappy photo of it somewhere, but didn't upload it.
Plenty of sulphur around
Another couple of views from the summit
This one is looking down to the geothermal power station and where the commercial hot springs are. The Germans continued on down this side, I went back to the bike and rode around to the springs
Plenty of clowns have jumped into the crater lake and used boulders to write their name, but its a bit hard to see that from this view, fortunately
I headed back down myself, although there were half a dozen local kids, including the guy in the shot above, who had done the climb who followed me and kept asking for money. I only really encountered this up in northern Sumatra but its never worried me much. I normally say no, but I'll buy you some food if you are hungry. These guys were smoking and I reckon that's what they were after.
The trail was a tad wet
At the hot springs - I ended up in the wrong one, the German girls were in one a bit down the road, dammit....
Anyhow, the view from here was fabulous. There were plenty of individual pools, so you could avoid the kids. Looking back up at Gunung Sibayak
I was the only westerner at these springs
There was an old bloke wandering around selling packets of ground up minerals from the volcano. The locals were keen on it... men and women both rubbing it in on any exposed skin.
Heading into town again, I saw plenty of this sort of thing... cane baskets, lined with banana leaves, waiting to be loaded up.
I stopped at this little place, loading tomatoes
I tried to ask the bloke there how much.... and he was saying, I think, 50,000. If that's 50,000 rupiah per basket... that's $5.
It was late enough in the day after all this that I'd missed checkout time, so I stayed over and headed to Medan in the morning.
I checked in to the place in Medan that Simon and Lisa Thomas (2ridetheworld.com) had recommended to me. Medan is Indonesia's third largest city and the guesthouse is quite noisy at the front.... and I couldn't talk Stanley into giving me one of the ground floor rooms at the back because he keeps them for the old and infirm folks. Um, Stanley, mate... my knees... Nope. Stanley insisted I bring the bike into the living room though, so it spent 3 days parked in there next to the organ.
Stanley pretty much insisted I not ride around Medan... he was worried about the bike and me. He'd told El Conquistador the same thing... but he'd ridden into town and someone had snitched a video camera off El Conquistador's bike while he was shopping. Um... I guess its nice to be sponsored and not have to worry about things like that... El C had 4 GoPros, so who cares if he loses one - not him apparently? He'd told me when I saw the busted mount a few days earlier, up the road, that it'd broken off... yeah mate - broken off when someone reefed it off.
Young Hannah and I decided to head out for dinner, then a couple more Dutch kids turned up, so we took them along too. Walked into town to Sun Plaza, which was a rather high-end shopping plaza with everything you'd expect in a similar thing in the west. I offered to buy them a beer and we ended up in a Sushi Bar. The beer was German... and $15 a bottle. We shared two between the 4 of us and moved on to somewhere that didn't need a wheelbarrow full of money to eat. I picked up a new camera there, so it was good shopping.
Unfortunately, we ended up in the Islamic quarter... from a beer drinking perspective.... so it was off the menu, but it was a fun place to be - until the heavens opened up on us....
The four girls here are local nurses on their way home after work. I think there must be a maximum height limit for nurses eh?
Hmm... I seem to have run out of photos again... I better check the cameras, because there are more... including the mosque that made it onto everyone's screens with the earthquake coverage a couple of days after I left Medan.

OK, I'm finally ready to post the full "I'm really stupid sometimes" photos. Here's the story in pictures. Back down there at Way Kambas National Park, I'd checked in to the lodge just near the gates to the National Park, unloaded and went for a ride to see if I could spot any wild elephants. I came to a tourist area and there were some local tourists taking a ride on a tame bull elephant, but that wasn't what I was looking for.
A bit further along, I came on this young one
Cute eh?
Then this one with its 6 week old baby. I found out later that the baby had pushed a lady over that day. Strong little buggers
This elephant camp was just down the road from there.
Mostly bulls, possibly all bulls even, as female Asian elephants don't have tusks that are visible unless the mouth is open and some males also don't have them... all chained - separated from each other. Female Asian elephants don't have much in the way of tusks. The Asian elephant is recognised as endangered, with around 40-50,000 in 2003. According to wiki the heaviest Asian bull elephant recorded was shot by the Maharajah of Susang in India in 1924, and was 8 tonnes, 3.35 m (11.0 ft) tall and 8.06 m (26.4 ft) long.
I pulled up just before there and there was a local bloke sitting near the entrance to that paddock. I indicated to him that I wanted to ride through and "asked" him if it was OK... in other words, I pointed at the bike, the elephant camp and did the old thumb up / thumb down signal, with a shrug. He nodded, so I thanked him and rode in.
Big mistake. I'd seen a movie while I was home over Christmas... some bloke from the US who was thinking of moving his family to Thailand. He'd come across a chained elephant in the movie and had let it smell his hand... so, I rode up to one of the small elephants, stopped and held out my hand. No worries.
Small bull. Very small. Quite nice, friendly, had a good sniff of me and the bike and that was it.
Same again at the next young bull
OK, I'm not totally stupid. I stayed away from the big buggers
Here's where things went astray. I stopped to say G'day to this bloke. I found out later, from the American elephant expert staying at the lodge, that he's a 4 year old "boisterous adolescant... almost 2 tons". This was the start of the "OH SHIT" moment....
That's the shot I posted a while back. I'll post a sequence of what happened next, which shows how far he threw the bike and me. After he gave me the wild-eyed look there, he put his head down, his right tusk went onto my left thigh.... at which stage I dragged my leg forward, to get it out from under his tusk - a move which bloody well hurt, but saved my life according to the elephant expert. The bruising from that lasted for weeks. Brutus there then flicked us... threw the bike. He doesn't look very big in this shot.... because after I hit the ground, I bolted. Take a look at how far he threw us... damn near 10' at a guess.
He wandered over for a look then.
I was getting worried when he started sniffing around the bike. My worry was that if he burnt his trunk on the exhaust, he'd stomp the bike
Luckily he didn't. He did claim it though. He wasn't going anywhere. This is the other shot I posted before.... where he was prodding the bike with his foot. He moved it around a little bit, but not much fortunately.
Eventually a couple of Mahouts came out... One distracted him and got him to go his way and the other guy and myself grabbed the bike and got it out of Brutus' reach. I'd lost a bit of fuel out the breather, but that was it, bar a groove in the nicely named Safari tank. I posted that shot before, but for the sake of completeness in this "I'm an idiot" post... here it is again.
So.... am I going to go pat the pretty little elephants again? Fat frigging chance - but while on the subject of bitey / hurty things.... when I did the river tour and we did some night bird spotting on the way back, I'd seen a pair of bright yellow eyes in the jungle as we drove down the road. "Deer or cat" said the driver, who hadn't seen them - he was looking out his side and they were on my side.
I watched a damn Tiger documentary last night... set in India, not Sumatra, but nevertheless, it had plenty of deer and tigers in it. Tigers have yellow eyes, deer don't. Do deer eyes glow yellow when a light gets shone on them? Anyone know? I'm not sure I want to know, because I reckon I already know after that doco. We were out of the car, 150 metres down the road and into the jungle, chasing night birds, just a kilometre down the road.... and I wasn't feeling too comfortable about it. To the extent I fired off the flash a few times on the way back to the car.

I'm still shaking my head at that one.
Now, on a better topic... someone asked me to post photos of the local ladies. Here's the girl at the KFC just near the guesthouse (hey... we were only there for the wifi)
No... my gut isn't that big... honest... its just a big shirt.
I don't know if I posted a decent shot of how things ended up with the rack. I know I mentioned I'd lost all the bolts that hold it on.... so, I've thrown a stick under it, which keeps it from moving around and having one side drop down over the hot exhaust gases. I had to do that because one of the heat shields is cracked.... probably because it was way overloaded with one of the pillions I've had putting all her weight on the rack rather than getting too close to me. I can understand that, I guess.
It wasn't quite as simple as just throwing new bolts in, because I'd never got the rack finished before I left... it would have taken a couple more days of moulding work to get the under-seat fit right, so I used some metal clamps instead.... and they disappeared with the bolts. I'm really pleased with how it works though - even with no bolts, it takes all the weight on the front section of the subframe.
I fitted some nice LED indicators to the top section of the numberplate, but I over-tightened and cracked one... and its now fallen off, so I'm about to buy the 4th set of rear indicators for this trip. Call it R&D eh? I really wish I had a second bike or a spare subframe while I've been home... I could have done version 2 and got a few of these things sorted.
Oops... gotta go - son's playing soccer. I've got some more shots to post later... Medan, just before the 'quake.

I wouldn't beat yourself up too badly about the elephant. I imagine that given lax supervision a lot of tourists to our shores would be gutted by those 'cute' kangaroos and ripped to shreds by the 'cuddly' koala "bears".... Also, why are the poor creatures chained? No wonder they're angry.
I'd be a bit pissed at the local for 'letting' you go in without warning you. At least you got out of it with a few well earned battle scars on the KTM and not so pleasant ones on yourself. Could have been a lot worse.
Cheers for the last post. There have been a couple of shots of the local ladies (the two with minerals pasted on their faces spring to mind, often) that have shown just how lovely the other scenery can be .
I look forward to the next instalment!

Yep... I'm pretty much over the tosser elephant... except I'm hearing on the news tonight about a Kiwi zookeeper just killed by an elephant. I'm not going near any frigging elephants. That American lady kept telling me I'm the luckiest man on the planet. No... I wasn't that lucky.... I'm a married man!
It isn't just the local ladies who are lovely btw. Hannah and Willemijn are the two lovely future Dutch lawyers (sheesh, nearly mispelt that as "layers" and my wife would not have been amused!) that I spent some time exploring Medan with
That's us at the Sultan's palace... not that you can see it. We'd decided to go somewhere else for dinner and had gone to something that Lonely Planet described thus:
"Inspired by Singapore's alfresco dining, this collection of outdoor cafés occupies Lapangan Merdeka and is anchored by one of the shiniest McDonald's you'll see outside the Soviet bloc"
It was a bit ughh as it turned out... very plastic. We had a snack and decided to find somewhere else. Our transport decided we wanted to go to the Mosque... which was fine by us, but not what we had in mind. The Sultan's palace is just near there.
Anyone who watched coverage of the recent earthquakes in Sumatra would have seen this mosque. People flocked to it because its been there since 1906 - and obviously survived the big one in 2004.
We got there just before evening prayers... too late to do a tour. Eddy (not sure he would spell it that way, but that's what he said his name was) grabbed us and showed us around.... with the tape blasting the call to prayer in our ears
Eddy certainly took a shine to Willemijn...
We ended up having dinner with Eddy and, as I mentioned in an earlier post, that dinner included fried pippies, boiled turtledove eggs, capcay, tempe, etc, etc. Washed down with avocado juice lashed with chocolate.
Here's the kids that showed up as we'd pretty much stuffed ourselves.... they asked for some money.... something that happened pretty much only in the northern parts of Indonesia... and as I normally do when someone asks for money, I said I'd feed them instead....
They got our leftovers and a Nasi Goreng each as well. I don't think they really needed it... they were just a trio of little shits trying it on, but such is life
Stanley, at the guest house, at one stage was suggesting I leave my bike in the living room...
.... but after about three days there, I convinced him it'd be better in his garage for the next month. He's a very bike-friendly guy and he is willing to help bike riders sort out any problems. I wasn't over-impressed with the location of his guesthouse, but having someone with his attitude steamrollers over the top of a better location any day. Here's Stanley with Willemijn the day she headed north, into Islamic territory again to see the orangutans.
Stanley's mum owns the guesthouse. She's in this shot
The old guy is a former ADVer.
He told us (a few times) about when he rode his BSA from Jakarta to Bandung in 1948 and didn't see a single car. He's 88 and was born in the Netherlands. He did slave labour during WW2 and then was excused from military service in the Dutch East Indies (Indonesia) as a result of that experience.... and he met Sukarno, the first President of Indonesia through his football (soccer). He says his life was spared during the independence struggle because he knew Sukarno, and he was able to save his neighbours lives as well. He ended up moving to the USA, but says he has built three houses in Indonesia. I take that as a euphemism. He's built a house for a (different) woman three times over the years is my guess. He had a local woman there with him but we didn't see much of her. She seemed happy with the arrangement. She's got it easy compared to many.
Last, but not least... this was the sign that greeted me at the airport. Its a sign in several languages warning of the dangers of trying to get to Australia by boat. Way down the other end of Indonesia, we'd been checked out as potential snakeheads (people smugglers).
Its a big issue and a serious one. Hundreds have died trying to get to Australia this way. Very, very sad.
So.... I'm now in prep mode again.... starting to think about what I need to take back with me.
I'm going to throw a new chain on the bike - the one on it is rattling a bit after a very, very hard 10,000 miles or so... mostly un-lubed. I didn't get a chance to check it before I came home, but for a couple of hundred bucks..... its time. I think I'll try and find somewhere I can get the front tyre done in Thailand, but I'll throw a new rear tyre on... although there's probably 1,000km before I hit the tread wear indicator. Its all about not leaving it until its all totally stuffed.... I'd rather do it now than sweat it later trying to find one.
New socks! I've gotta get new socks.... I had toes and heels hanging out of threads by the time I finished the last bit. Oh yeah... here's a big tip, so to speak.... new undies. I got caught out, literally, in Vietnam a couple of years ago. I bought some Calvin Klein (well, it said CK on the label) undies and had to spend a day with it all hanging out before I threw them away. So... socks and undies.
New SD cards too.... gotta clean up the hard disk as well... and an oil filter, some brake pads (I've got 2 sets of fronts there, but my rears are gone and I want a spare set with me)... and a few things like that. I suppose I should check where the next malaria zone is too eh?
Anything else?

Fantastic fit, all-day comfort...This is not your Father's Lange
After years of crushing my foot into the XLR and ZR back in the 80's as a ski racer, I swore I would never ski Langes again. They were high on performance, but cold, leaky and brutal on your feet. I retired my Salomon Guns this year after missing last season due to injury. This boot fits me so well, I have a slightly wider foot than normal, and the 27.5 fits perfectly especially after I dropped my footbeds in. It is stiff enough to drive my Wagner's and my Side Stash's but does not beat me up after a long day. My feet are also covered in spurs and bumps from years of race boots and so far no issues. Highly suggest this as a boot if these are things you are looking for. In addition, Backcountry is so easy to deal with...pull the trigger!
Rich F
Good boot, fit a little large
These boots are an awesome fit. Lange totally redesigned their boots, and the new 100 last is awesome. I'm normally a 25.5 in boots. My older Full Tilts with a 293 BSL fit great... these in 25.5 have a 296 BSL, and fit a little long. The width was perfect though, and the flex nice as well. They're also one of the lighter two piece boots i've worn.

I Bought the RX110 , and having skied on the langeL10 for a few years, I find the RX110 too soft. Probably should have Bought the 130 flex...

Completed jobs:
On time, worked diligently, were polite and professional.
Samuel was good and courteous and moving fairly quicky the other mover that was with him was useless and did nothing but complain and hold Samuel back from working.
All in all I was very pleased with their services. They moved everything quickly and efficiently.
They completed the move on schedule and without any damage to my furniture.
Brian and Brandon of Janesville Moving were courteous, neat, and went above and beyond what they were asked to do. They were very professional and friendly. I would highly recommend their services.
So pleasant and thorough. They have been a great find.
Great job..they completed the move under the scheduled time.
Great crew. Would use again.
These guys were great. They worked so hard and were always running back to the truck to grab more things. Great with following directions on where to put items! Thanks for your help!!
I've left three unanswered emails with this mover. I needed to work through details and they were completely unresponsive. I am very disappointed.
Brian and his co-worker did an awesome job moving for us. They showed up right on time and were very professional and easy to work with. I would definitely use their service again and recommend them!
I was very pleased to have a good driver handling a 20 foot truck.
Our moving helpers were very professional and efficient. We enjoyed having them help on such a tiring day. I would definitely recommend them to other families needing help.
Pleasure to work with, would use again! 5 stars!!!
Very efficient, professional, good to work with.
On time and good workers.
The movers were very nice, but were 2.5 hours late. They initially called to say they would be 30 minutes late and would call if it would be later. We did not hear and needed to call them.
Could not have had a more positive experience. Thanks Brian and Brandon!
Did an awesome job. Truck was packed very tightly, and nothing shifted even as the truck had to be lifted at the front end and towed the last 200 miles. Very professional. Would recommend.
Communication needed to be repeated. They had phone and car issues. Arrived 80 minutes late. Once they arrived they worked hard and were pleasant. WATCH out for fuel charges...
Great job
They were very helpful and energetic, and handled our things very carefully. All in all they did a great job.
The guys were nice, worked hard and had great attitudes. However we had several things damaged ~ dinning room table, tv stand, bookcase. The guys need better training to prevent this type of damage.
Sam and his co-worker were great, It was the best thing we did in arranging the move.
Showed up on time and worked hard to accomplish everything. I would use them again in a heartbeat.
Samm and Nate were great. I recommend them to help with your next move.
Very helpful & friendly.
Sam and Nate were fantastic! They were so professional and communicative. They moved our furniture swiftly and carefully. I highly recommend this company and service.
Overall the labor was good. A junior crew was sent for a very large job so took longer than it should have. The truck was not loaded very efficiently so it took multiple trips to get the large items.
Will definitely use again if I need anything. The two guys were friendly, worked fast, and took great care of my things as well as to not nick my walls and doors. Couldn't be happier. Thanks
Very strong, fast and very careful movers!!!! I would recommend 100%! Super nice crew!
On time and got it done!
They traveled from the load stop to the unload stop and got lost on the way. Once they arrived they worked very hard and fast to make up the time. They were very good and we were finished before time
If you are using U-Haul for your stuff, these guys were fine. They were friendly, hard working and cared about my stuff. You need to have all the supplies ready for them but they did a great job
moved a lot in 2 hrs time
The men didn't really pay attention to where to put things. I had my sister and niece helping and they worked harder and moved more than the men. However, they were pleasant.
Worked very efficiently. Arrived about 30 mins late but, finished the job on time.
They were very good overall but, came two hours late. Because of this our plans got delayed. They did call us and kept us informed of the delay but, a delay is still very inconvenient.
The cleaning crew never showed up citing car trouble. They would also not answer my phone calls. Very unhappy with this provider.
Brian and Brandon were fantastic! On time and very fast! We highly recommend their services.
Worked very hard. Was very flexible concerning timing of my arrival from the load site.
Polite, considerate and hard workers
Such hard workers, super flexible, and pleasant to work with!
They did a great job. Tommy was especially great and very professional. He did not tire at all and kept everyone moving. Thanks!
Great experience, would use them again
Super, fast, efficient & very thorough!
Good workers. Packed well until they said we needed another trailer. Waited patiently for second trailer but then they didn't take as much care loading as in the big truck. Helped us with ANY requests
Dave and Larry were great.
They were a great help.
Great Help
Vwery nice guys
Very nice guys.
I called several times and VM was full.
Great driver, thank you!
Fast, efficient, thoughtful, nice people. Thanks!
Great work! Very nice and fast!
The guys were great! I would use them again and gladly recommend them to others.
Were a half hour late, but very careful with belongings and overall am pleased with how smoothly things went.
Super nice, hard working, and easy going. A joy to work with!
Great job. The two gentlemen were punctual, careful, efficient and friendly. We could not have asked for a better crew. We would recommend them to others and call them again for us without hesitation.
These guys were great
More than accommodating. They even moved things to the dumpster for me! Absolutely wonderful would definitely recommend to anyone!
Great job. They were on time and very efficient.

Excellent help. Always smiling and very nice to work with. Highly recommended
I had a bunch of heavy furniture to move, and the two guys that were sent out worked quickly and efficiently. Was a very easy process.
The guys unloaded my U-Haul quickly and were careful with my belongings. They were friendly and professional. I would definitely hire them again!
They were on time and very professional. They were able to load the truck in about 1.5 hrs which was great. They treated my belonging with respect and care thus I would use this moving service again.
They were great!
While later than planned, our movers kept in touch re. schedule. Once they arrived, they were fast, efficient, and friendly. We would definitely use them again for a move!
Metal bed frames we but next to wooden furniture. Wood rubbing on wood. Freezer on top of wood furniture. Serious scratches and damage to furniture...
They were very kind, fast, and helpful! They made sure that my valuables were safe and that I felt confident my things would arrive in tact!
Janesville Moving Specialists did a fantastic job, the only thing that caused an issue was the time constraint of two hours.
Brian and Matt arrived about 10 minutes early and went right to work. Took care and made sure everything was packed in the trailer so nothing would get damaged. Would definitely use them again.
These guys were awesome. The movers were polite, courteous, efficient and able to get everything loaded and fit into the truck. I will definitely recommend these guys.
Very courteous, very friendly, extremely wfficient and organized. Very professional. They were quick to load & unload. Very impressed with their services. Will hire them again in a heartbeat. Thanks

Joey and Cameron worked hard and completed the job. Arrived a bit early and went to work right away. I would recommend them in the future.
Janesville was superb! Brian (as owner) very proactive on the phone. The two helpers, Joe and Camerson, were energetic, careful, pleasant and fun to work with. Started and finished exactly on time!
The number provided, 608-931-0631, was the incorrect number to reach this moving company, and I was not able to find another number online.
Joey and Cameron were awesome! Would recommend them again. Went above and beyond to help me.
the best movers ever!!!
Awesome job! Looking forward to seeing them again in October!
Did a great job. Would use in the future.
Our movers did a nice job, but based on upper management I could never recommend this company. We received one hour of work that was two hours after our scheduled start time. We were charged for 3.
Great guys, super nice and efficient. Would totally recommend them.
The guys were great - fastest and smoothest move I've ever had. Thanks!
Very good professionals. Even called to let us know they would be 10 minutes late.
I am requesting a refund of the transportation fee, as the movers they did not have transportation so It was necessary for me to drive them from Beloit back to their homes in Janesville.
Brian & Jimmy were the best they were very polite and very efficient,they really know the job and we will definitely use them again. and tell everyone we know what a great job they did.
my movers Luke and Marcus were wonderful they turned a very crappy move into a better day due to their profess even though I would never rent from U Haul again I will be inclined to utilize them
would hire again
Helpful and friendly, very efficient and capable team!
I've used Moving Help before and never been this satisfied. John and Brandon were on time, professional, and did an amazing job moving my 2 bedroom in a short period of time. I'll be using them again.
the service left much to be desired. One mover was much more experienced, but one was not. Both tried very hard, but I had damage to the floor, door frames and items. My advice: keep trying.
Both guys were pleasant & diligent. While it was clear they were interested in speed, everything arrived safely. We'd definitely use JMS again!
Brandon and Marcus were extremely efficient and were able to fit way more into the truck than we had planned and well within the allotted 2 hrs. They exceeded our expectations. Highly recommend them
They were fantastic!
Guys showed up and on time.. told them I would hire them again for all my moving needs. Brian and John were very professional and treated my stuff like their own. Top notch service
The gentlemen that helped complete my move were thoughtful and fast. I completely recommend them, especially when you are on a time crunch.
Thank you for your help it was greatly appreciated.
Excellent crew. Very fast and utilized the space perfectly.
Brian and Brandon could not have been better. They were polite, efficient, careful with my belongings, and incredibly fast. They worked energetically the whole time they were here. I recommend them.
Excellent help!!!! Best money you can spend. I highly recommend these guys. Very professional.
started off strong but faded near the end, did not properly place mattress in bag and seemed that they were distracted at the end.
Flexible with time, professional and fast! Worked in bitter cold weather and had to unload truck parked in difficult position. Had to take the long route for unloading into home and downstairs. A+!
Brian and Joey called to tell us their first job was running over and asked if they could be late to ours which was not an issue. They completed the load in a professional manner within the 2 hours.
They did a nice job, worked hard to get the job done.
they were fast
There was an issue with weather and the first tow movers had a problem and did not show up but they dispatched another crew immediately that showed up a few hours later and did a very good job.
Professional, packed with care, would recommend to others, 5 starts all the way around!
Matt and Brian were very professional and kept busy during the entire time while moving items. They called the night before to confirm the address and arrival time. Highly recommended.
Overall it was pretty good
Great guys. Very professional, on time in bad weather no less.
Brian and Matt were amazing. They worked diligently the entire time, were very polite and helpful.
The guys charged us additional money for tolls, which I understood wad part of the service for getting TTYL or location. Those money should be given back. totookmesince is part of the fifty dollars i
Guys were professional, friendly and quick.
We will definitely use these guys again. Fast, professional and took care with moving our things
I've never hired movers before so didn't know what to expect. They were awesome! So professional, so helpful and so easy-going. Would highly recommend them to anyone who needs the muscle to move!!!
Nice guys, hard workers.
Quick service. Careful handling of packages.
Punctual. Friendly.
These guys were absolutely wonderful. Very friendly and professional- not to mention we got done early! I can't recommend them highly enough.
It took a lot longer and more man power than expected. Would have liked the first crew to have given me a better estimate of time first thing in the morning so we didn't have to work with flashlights
Communication before move was lacking, a quick call the night before was all. Arrived 15 min. late but made up for it with the speed they worked. Would definitely use again. 4 out of 5 star overall.
Prompt and friendly, this is the third time I have used Janesville Moving Specialists, twice for myself and once to move my daughter each time they were very professional and helpful.
I was very pleased with my experience with Janesville Moving Specialists. They arrived on time, packed my belongings carefully and efficiently, and completed the work in under 2 hours.
This service worked out very welll for us. I would def recommend
Joey couldn't have worked harder. He moved very quickly and worked to resolve a problem with one of our items moved. He had a great attitide doing this hard work and was very personable and polite.
They started out doing a great job, but I had to leave and it seems like they just started throwing items in the truck. Had damage to two pieces of furniture.
Jason and Brian did a phenomenal job moving our family of 5! They were careful, courteous, prompt, & professional.They hustled the entire time--despite very hot and humid weather. Would hire again!

Great drivers, no issues. Would definitely hire them again for help with moving.
They were excellent! Very prompt and kind, respectful of my stuff. They helped my move be very efficient. Would definitely use them again.
Moved too slowly, as if they were trying to increase their billing hours.
THey were nice individuals, but they moved slowly as if they were trying to add more time to the bill.
Hard workers!
They were awesome and friendly. Loved it.
They did an excellent job, showed up right on time and worked diligently up until the last minute. They were friendly, helpful & quick to solve problems. Very impressed with how much got done in 2 hrs
Worst moving experience of our life! Very unprofessional. Damaged many pieces of furniture and wated a TON space. The trucked looked like something out of a Dr. Suess book. DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME OR $!
Came on time. Communicated well. Worked efficiently.
Prompt and efficient, however, I had to remind them to use the blankets to wrap some furniture, and some items were not especially well stored. Ok for a local move, but not for our 500mile move.
Wonderful to work with!! When we arrived earlier than planned they were able to adjust their schedule. Very professional and handled our items with care. Would highly recommend them!!
Jason and Dave were super efficient and friendly. Very much appreciated their assistance!
Scheduling problem: they double-booked themselves. Though they tried to resolve this problem, we were kept waiting a few hours because of traffic. Leaving some time between appointments would be best!
Completed a strenuous loading and unloading job much faster than expected. Excellent workers, that I would use again. Recomnmended
Worst moving help ever! We booked this move one month in advance and requested 9:30 am start, they didn't show up until 2 pm. Furniture and walls were damaged. Do NOT use this company.
Great job, worked fast, courteous.
Jason and Brian provide such an exceptional quality of work and professionalism that we were more than happy with their services and will definitely use them again and recommend them to others.

Helpers are very good at their job. I'm satisfied with this service.

Very polite and hard working
Very polite, on time, careful and on task. I will use them again soon.

They arrived on time & were constantly professional/service oriented. They worked extremely hard all day in hot and dirty conditions. I want these exact two movers next time.UHaul is smart to use em!
Arrived on time, were super helpful, and followed my instructions. They didn't call me so I did have to call them twice to confirm the day/time but I did book the week of. Would definitely use again.
Matt and Brian were awesome, I could not ask for more honest, couteous and knowledgeable workers. They went out of their way to pick up a UHaul truck when Uhaul failed to deliver the truck I ordered.
the head mover, Dan, felt he was due more money for the move. He decided to tell me this halfway thru the unload. I gave him $50 cash and check for $60 to finish the last half of unload. Bad attitud
First off your check bounced and wasnt enough 2 cover your bill. Second you had only prepaid for 3hr. The job took over 6 and Dan had told you that after the 3hrs were up what the rate would be.
Outstanding job! Very professional, courteous and efficient. No load too heavy or awkward. Very patient with us. Would use these guys anytime and recommend them to anyone.
Movers arrived on time, handled my belongings with care and worked very fast. Excellent job.

Thank u for the business we appreciate it. Hope you enjoy the new place.
First off they were courteous and fast paced. But the bottom leg of my $3000 dreaser got broken off. And we werent told about it at all. The weather was bad and it took a LONG time for them to finish.
We made the impossible happen.I went out of my way and shoveled their driveway and steps so we could do the job. When we picked up the dresser the leg fell of and we told her husband about it.
I will reuse them again for sure
Thank you.We appreciate the business.
