Roade is a village in Northamptonshire, England. It is represented by South Northamptonshire District Council, falling within the two-member Blisworth and Roade ward.
Roade straddles the busy Northampton to Milton Keynes A508, ca. 2 miles (3 km) south of junction 15 of the M1 motorway, 5 miles (8 km) south of Northampton and 12 miles (19 km) north of Milton Keynes. The road bisects the village into east, the older part, and west, which is mostly 20th-century housing.
The 2001 Census shows 2,254 people living in the parish, 1,117 male and 1,137 female, in 962 dwellings. In 2009, the population was estimated to be 2,304.
Four tracks of the West Coast Main Line railway from London Euston to Manchester and Scotland go through the village in this deep cutting. The cutting bisects the village into the older part on the east side and the more recent west side. However, there are two main road bridges and four others for pedestrians, some for minor traffic and farm vehicles. The line dates from 1838 and was electrified in the 1960s. It now carries 125 mph trains.
Buneşti (German: Bodendorf; Hungarian: Szászbuda) is a commune in Braşov County, Romania. It is composed of five villages: Buneşti, Criţ, Meşendorf, Roadeş and Viscri. Each of these has a fortified church.
Viscri's population is of Roma majority, with a few Romanians, and about 20 Germans. It lies northwest of Rupea and can be reached through Dacia on a 7 km unpaved road. The village is best known for the highly fortified Viscri fortified church, originally built around 1100. It is part of the villages with fortified churches in Transylvania, designated in 1993 as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. The first documentation of Viscri is a record of church taxes dated around 1400, in which the village is referred to as being part of the Rupea parish. Its inhabitants consisted of 51 farmers, 1 school master, 3 shepherds and 2 paupers.
The origins of the fortified church date from 1100 when the Székelys built a small church with a single hall and semicircular apse. Around 1185 the church was taken over by Saxon colonists, and the Székelys were forced to settle further north. In the 14th century the eastern part of the church was rebuilt and in 1525, the first fortifications with towers were added. In the 18th century the church was surrounded by a second defense wall. After 1743 a covered corridor for the storage of corn was built. A century later, two chambers in the defense corridor of the bastion were turned into school rooms. The classic 19th-century altar has as centerpiece "the Blessing of the Children" by the painter J. Paukratz from Rupea. The font was made from a capital of the 13th-century church. To this day, the church is surrounded by a cemetery with gravestones dating back to the "Bijelo Brdo culture".
You know you're livin' a lie when you just can't win
Pulling in first prize ain't gonna give you a break
You know I'm kickin' back, I had a broken wing
