InfoSec Director for non-profits (Nation State threats, non-profit budgets!) I talk mostly about Cybersecurity and Tech but occasionally cats (got my handle from one of them), urbanism, transportation politics and woodworking. My tweets are my own.

“Helsinki hasn’t registered a single traffic-related fatality in the past year…Citing data that shows the risk of pedestrian fatality is cut in half by reducing a car’s speed from 40 to 30km/hr, city officials imposed the lower limit in most of Helsinki’s residential areas & city center in 2021.”
Helsinki just went a full year without a single traffic death

I guess they never travel outside their time zone either? We get more daylight during summer evenings and an earlier sunrise in the winter, when it’s needed, all for the equivalent of a single one hour flight East/West.

While Lowe’s corporate initially didn’t want to cooperate and told local employees were told not to talk about it, they did. The community rallied and started a multi-state effort to find and return Francine home. Even the SPCA and Best Friends got involved.
