Before I start, I've gotta say that it's partially my fault. I didn't know that the road was only one lane (right lane ends literally about 20 ft after turn). I didn't see the lane end because it was dark and I'm unfamiliar with this route home. I had to cut off the biker or run off the road into a construction site. I chose to cut him off
I would have been angry too if I was the biker, I know how scary being cut off can be when on a bike.
Anyways, this guy tailgates me, revs his engine and flashes his brights. My apartment complex was only about 100 feet down the road, and I turn in. He follows me. Luckily I live in a gated community and once he saw the security guard up front he made a U turn back onto the road.
My question is what would you guys do in this situation? Would you continue on your way home, call the cops while still driving (don't see a license plate because the guy is behind you) or something else?
People really need to cool down on the road, mistakes happen. And I haven't had one ticket in 7 years of driving.
If he kept following, I would have called 911 and drove to the nearest station, unless a car was closer. Even and accidental cutting off can escalate quickly.

Hummm..."apartment complex only 100 ft down the road"...and you didn't know the area or the roads???
Putting the shoe on the other foot...wonder what would of happened if you had hit the biker or caused him to lose control of his bike...just curious of course.
Sounds like the fault was yours...I would of stopped at the guard gate...gotten out and apologized...with the guard in sight.
I didn't know the road because I never travel on it, mainly due to the heavy construction and traffic. I've lived here 3 months and been on it like twice, I always use the highway to the south.
With an aggressive tailgater, I generally drive toward a place with lots of people, lots of witnesses. Have only needed to contact police on the road a couple of times, and in both cases the assaulting party decided prudence was a different course of action.
Don't kick yourself too hard. You had the choice of crashing, or squeezing into a spot. I would have done the same thing. The "biker" didn't realize there were no options, apparently. Wouldn't undertstand, rather. Nobody has call to assault others, neither by tailgating or otherwise.

As a motorcycle rider myself.. I have been cut off countless times, and I can tell you that 9 times out of 10.. I should have seen it coming and backed off. I am generally ALOT more aware when I am on my bike. Call it condition 'red'.. that a confrontation is going to happen.. I know people in cars do not pay attention. I have investigated many accidents, and I can tell you when there are two parties involved.. you can always find out that one of them could have done something different.
If the lane ended 'literally 20' after the turn' how fast were you going that you could not see this with your headlights? All the flashing lights and marker cones in a construction sign are there to get your attention.. most people view them as an annoyance..
If you look at it from the outside.. you could have been paying more attention to the road.. the biker could have noticed another vehicle entering in a construction zone and found his 'way out'. There was no accident which is a good thing.. so no party is really at fault. Had both parties been paying attention, it would have never gotten to that.
I think driving to your residence with him following you wasn't a bright idea. If he is really hell bent on causing harm to you or your property, he now knows where you live.
I would have driven to a popular area with lots of people (wally world parking lot or something like that) while on the phone with the police giving location updates.
"The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing."
Smith & Wesson M&P9c
If I were you, I would have called the cops on myself for my own stupidity and for recklessly endangering a biker and insist that I be cited for reckless driving and wanton disregard for the biker's safety.
A fender bender in a car (running over pylons, etc. ...) can mean serious injury up to and including death to someone on 2 wheels.
You choose to cut off the biker due to your poor driving skills (you did NOT have to cut off the biker) and possibly cause him injury and death only 100 feet from your apartment complex.
Crashes happen when people are reckless while in control of a vehicle. I don't care how many years you have been driving without a ticket. That means nothing to me if I am the biker you almost killed. If your wanton disregard for my safety potentially causes me to be seriously injured or die (because your lack of attention and reluctance to get some scratches on your car) then you should be called on the carpet for it.
And you are posting here hoping for some type of sympathetic response with tactics to counter the "evil" biker. You should be thankful that you did not harm the biker and have to live with the repercussions of your negligent actions.
Your steering wheel is a lot like your firearm----wheel control vs muzzle control ---- you gota have control.
An ounce of lead is worth 200lbs of cop.
Let me understand what you are sayingI had to cut off the biker or run off the road into a construction site. I chose to cut him off
You are in a car with air bags ETC. 100 Ft to your apartment complex.
Your speed was too fast to safely PULL to the side of the road ??????Not been caught??And I haven't had one ticket in 7 years of driving.
The Biker is on his bike with only his skill & alertness to keep from getting hurt/killed
With 40 years in the biker community.
IMHO your lucky you didn't have more serious trouble.
BTW: He know what your car license number is, what kind of car you drive, knows where you live and knows what you look like.
Think about it.

I have found that a lot of the new breed of middle aged Harley wanna bes are downright rude and tend to be bullys.They think their biker costume gives them super powers.I had one actually stick his head in the drivers window and yell at my wife as she was stopped for a light for some driving imperfection.The biker retracted his punkin when he saw my 1911 pointed at it.He had no further comment.oh yeah, I have had a cycle license for 35 years and have ridden plenty.I just mind my own business and drive defensively.

I'm with the biker on this one. When I'm cut off on my motorbike, I certainly lay on the horn and flash my brights. My assumption is that the driver either didn't know I was there, or is simply an . Either way, he's going to know I'm there now...
It's interesting that you would qualify this situation as "road rage". Had it been me, I would have been revving the engine as well, looking for the earliest opportunity to get around you, since I clearly can't trust your ability to drive. Granted, I probably wouldn't have followed you off the road, but still...
No matter what the biker's response, the only thing you can do is analyze what you could have done differently, and learn from what happened. No one was hurt, so focus on the things you can learn from, and stop worrying about the biker's reaction. This is the only way to reduce the chances of something like this happening again.
"It is only as retaliation that force may be used and only against the man who starts its use. No, I do not share his evil or sink to his concept of morality: I merely grant him his choice, destruction, the only destruction he had a right to choose: his own." - John Galt, from Atlas Shrugged
I am also a biker, and like others have said Ive been cut off, ran off the road, and back in the mid 80s I had to swerved to avoid a head on resulting in me wrecking, and breaking my back in four places.
And just a few months ago, while going through a small town in central Florida with a speed limit of 35 mph, I had a trucker without notice move over in to my lane, like we where not even there. Fast thinking on my riding buddys part allowed me an open lane to move over into. We then stopped a the next traffic light, called 911 and reported the trucker (with his tag number) for reckless driving.
While I can see from you post that you regret your actions, that day you made a decision to take a chance on hurting the biker, instead of yourself.
That in part is attempted murder or at the very least reckless driving on your part. The biker who followed you may have merely been trying to get your tag number. If Id been him, I would have waited at the gate for the Leos, and filed a complaint.
Sorry, can't feel for you. You could have killed the biker vs. some damage to your car.

Finding a good rowing machine can be a workout in itself, so save some time by going straight for the good ones. If you have a small budget in mind, do yourself the favor and wait a little longer until you can afford more or simply make a little more of an investment if you can immediately. It will be absolutely worth it, because if you buy a cheap rowing machine just for its cost, you'll end up disappointed. If you're ready to buy a serious rowing machine and make a worthy investment, buy the WaterRower Oxbridge Rowing Machine, and you won't be disappointed in the slightest.
WaterRower rowing machines have really hit the nail on the head when it comes to manufacturing a rowing machine that actually works and that actually has a authentic feeling of real rowing motions. All of the WaterRower machines are made with WaterFlywheel Technology, and this design will allow you to have one of the smoothest, easiest rowing workouts you'll ever have. The technology was literally designed to feel mimic the dynamics of a boat as it would move through water.
This rowing machine isn't only appealing because of its smooth workout, but it's also aesthetically appealing. With a Cherrywood finish, WaterRower somehow made it possible for a piece of exercise equipment to be attractive. It's also great because it's so quiet, and there's that absence of those annoying metal clinking sounds that you hear with other rowers. This one is quiet and all you'll hear is the sound of running water, and it easily qualifies as the quietest rowing machine ever made.
The only drawback to the beautiful Cherry finish is that it's recommended you keep it in a darker room, which cuts down on where you can place it, as the color will become darker the more it's exposed to sunlight. Measuring in with dimensions of 83x21x19, you'll find the machine is also space friendly. All you have to do is lift one end of the machine and it will be in an upright position ready to store, taking up about as much space as a dining room table. The whole piece of machinery is light, and the whole design of the machine makes lifting it super easy.
The appearance isn't the only attractive thing about this Rower though. The sprag clutch used in the Waterflywheel design begins working as soon as you pull the handle to get the machine going, and the wooden frame of the machine prevents the entire machine from vibrating underneath you, so there is another benefit to the wood construction.
The wood construction actually lends itself to the entire workout. Whenever you make rowing movements they feel very fluid and feel similar to what real rowing feels like, and the only thing that can stand in the way of your workout is you, because the greater the drag (which refers to the effect of drag as a boat moves through water) and the faster you row, the Water Rower's precision sprag clutch will immediately begin working as soon as you pull that handle to start the machine. This also means that there's no jerk-like strokes in the beginning of rowing as well.
It also has an S4 performance monitor that is absolutely
outstanding in benefits. WaterRower created the monitor so that just the right amount of balance is achieved between the technical aspects needed and being user friendly. The monitor includes six buttons which are referred to as the "Quick Selection" buttons, and there are six windows for programming features. Additionally, you can explore all of the performance monitor's ins and outs just by using three navigation buttons.
All of the usual feedback is given, such as intensity, stroke rate, zone bar, duration, and distance, including the rowing distance you've gone within the amount of time you've rowed. The performance monitor is also compatible with the WaterRower Heart Rate Chest Strap and Receiver, and includes the Heart Rate Monitor.
Yes, this machine is more on the expensive side, usually selling for around $1,200. However, it's impossible to even begin to tell you how great this machine is, so you'll just have to try it out for yourself!

SACRAMENTO, Calif. -- California-grown strawberries, broccoli and celery could be in short supply this year, as a result of heavy, unexpected rainfall in prime growing areas in the southern part of the state.

Slices of Cerney & a Smidgen of Misarden
Both localities rely on trust. You place your money in an 'honesty box' and enjoy the gardens and grounds. At Cerney House and Gardens, the same level of trust goes with helping yourself to a cuppa and a slice of cake. Put your money in the tin! Cerney House & Gardens is located in Gloucestershire at GL7 7BX.
Misarden Park Gardens is scarcely 20 minutes drive at GL6 7JA And a visit to both will help fill a very relaxing day.

Baddesley Clinton_FZ1000
Baddesley Clinton. A 13th century manor house and grounds, so ancient that even the ghosts had died of old age. But walking in the footsteps of the gentry of long ago, far away from the diesel fumes of the M42, was one of the delights that compounded the joys of owning the FZ1000.
The crocuses had croaked it. The daffodils were dying, and the misty blue of the bluebell woods, were only just making a fragmented appearance here and there.
When I visit such places I usually meander around the grounds sampling the spectacular scenic delights they have to offer, but just occasionally, I will feel my way by touch around the gloomy interiors of these stately homes when photography is allowed, if only to see if I can still hold a camera steady for about ½ second, and capture the grandeur of dark stained oak panels that may hide an undiscovered priest-hole - (well, you never know!)
So here for your edification, the pleasures of today's shoot

Ralph Court Gardens-SX50HS
The Phileas Fogg Restaurant at Ralph Court Gardens, serves banana cake to die for. I decided to die a second time in the space of a week by sampling their date and coffee cake too.
Yes indeed; I made a return visit on account of the weather set for fabulous, and a determination to do my photo-shoot all over again. The first visit was on the hottest day of the year here in the UK, but would you believe it - somehow when I pack a camera, clouds love to embrace me and hover over the car, all the way to my destination. I was doomed but vowed to return.
This place is an Alice in Wonderland, with many rabbit holes to explore. And the reason you might never have heard of it, is down to the fact that it has only opened to the public this year 2015.
So, for those here in the UK that has a reasonable proximity to Bromyard in Herefordshire, I call on you to explore the delights of this remarkable place.

Used the white balance set on 'Cloudy.'

The exposure compensation was set to '0' and 'Centre Weighted Average' was used for this sequence of images.

SEOUL, April 5 (Yonhap) -- South Korea lodged a formal protest on Friday shortly after Japan approved an annual foreign policy report that renewed a territorial claim to Seoul's easternmost islets of Dokdo.
Escalating diplomatic tensions with South Korea, Japan formally issued the Diplomatic Blue Book 2013 that reiterated its claims that Dokdo is Japanese territory historically and under international law.
"The Korean government strongly protests against the Japanese government's endorsement of the Diplomatic Blue Book that contains an unjust sovereignty claim to Dokdo," foreign ministry spokesman Cho Tai-young said in a statement.
"(South Korea) once again emphasizes that, in order for the two countries to restore the trust between them, the Japanese government should heal the wounds of the past as soon as possible by looking squarely at its past and acting in a responsible manner," Cho said, demanding Japan "immediately withdraw" the claim to Dokdo.
Dokdo, a group of rocky outcroppings lying in the East Sea between the two countries, has been a source of diplomatic tension between the two countries for years.
Japan has long laid claims to Dokdo in the country's school textbooks, government reports and through other avenues, stoking enmity in South Korea against its former colonial ruler. South Korea views the claims as a sign that Japan has not fully repented for its imperialist past.
South Korea also says the territorial claims amount to Japan denying Korea's independence from its 1910-45 colonial rule, because Korea had reclaimed sovereignty over its territory -- including Dokdo and many other islands around the Korean Peninsula -- when it regained independence.
South Korea has kept a small police detachment on Dokdo since 1954.
The Friday approval of the annual diplomatic paper is likely to dash hopes of improving ties between the new governments in South Korea and Japan. Relations sank to one of the lowest-ever ebbs after Park's predecessor, former President Lee Myung-bak, made an unprecedented visit to Dokdo last year.

40 CFR 86.315-79 - General analyzer specifications.
(a) Analyzer response time. The analyzer must respond to an instantaneous step change at the entrance to the analyzer with a response equal to 95 percent of that step change in 6.0 seconds or less on all ranges used. The step change shall be at least 60 percent of full-scale chart deflection. For NOX analyzers using a water trap, the response time increase due to the water trap and associated plumbing need not be included in the analyzer response time.
(b) Precision. The precision of the analyzer must be no greater than ±1 percent of full-scale concentration for each range used above 155 ppm (or ppm C), or ±2 percent for each range used below 155 ppm (or ppm C). The precision is defined as 2.5 times the standard deviation(s) of 10 repetitive responses to a given calibration or span gas.
(c) Noise. The analyzer peak-to-peak response to zero and calibration or span gases over any 10-second period shall not exceed 2 percent of full/scale chart deflection on all ranges used.
(d) Zero drift. The analyzer zero-response drift during a 1-hour period shall be less than 2 percent of full-scale chart deflection on the lowest range used. The zero-response is defined as the mean response including noise to a zero-gas during a 30-second time interval.
(e) Span drift. The analyzer span drift during a 1-hour period shall be less than 2 percent of full-scale chart deflection on the lowest range used. The analyzer span is defined as the difference between the span-response and the zero-response. The span-response is defined as the mean response including noise to a span gas during a 30-second time interval.

Finally back in stock!
I was told by several people about Collagen & Almond Body Lotion by Aubrey Organics and it is so popular I had to be on a wait list. I am so glad I finally was able to order and receive it.
The lotion is lightweight but still quenches dry skin. The odor is very subtle and feels clean. I am over 60 and this is one of the best lotions to put on hands, arms, legs, feet or anywhere else after a full day to re-hydrate especially in those "creepy" areas.
I cannot think of anything I do not like. I thought the bottle was kind of small but a little bit goes a long ways.
√ I would recommend this item to a friend.

Great lotion.
Another great product from Aubrey. Collagen & Almond Moisturizing Lotion by Aubrey Organics leaves your skin feeling soft and smooth with only a hint of scent. It is absorbed in a matter of seconds leaving your skin matt, not greasy or shiny. My search for an all natural hand and body lotion is over.
√ I would recommend this item to a friend.

Hospital patients evacuated, but suspected gas leak turns out to be just smelly fruit
- From: Herald Sun
- April 15, 2014
THE stench of an exotic fruit caused patients to be evacuated from a private hospital overnight.
Firefighters were called to the Mitcham Private Hospital about 10pm after reports there had been a gas leak.
But the MFB discovered the unusual smell was actually from a fruit, believed to have been given as a gift to a patient.
"There was an unusual smell and they mistook it for gas," MFB spokesman Keith Robinson said.
"We often have people mistakenly smell something and believe it to be gas."Originally published as Gas leak? No, just smelly fruit

A friend bought me a Samsung Galaxy 10inch Tablet at a garage sale but no carry case. I bought this "FileMate Imagine" (pink/magenta) at Walmart online for $6.88. Shipped to home with several other items in about 4 days. 12 1/4" wide x 9 1/4" high x 3/4" thick. Handle (2 canvas straps) is 3 1/2" high. Small zippered pockect is 10 1/4" wide x 7" high AND has 2 interior pockets 2 1/4" wide x 5" high x 1/2" deep other is 3" wide x 5" high x 1/2" deep for cellphones. Big zippered pocket is 11 1/2" wide x 9" high. There are 2 zipper-pulls which if you zip them to each other I suppose you could put a miniature pad lock on the bigger pocket. Smooth neoprene exterior with soft furry interior. I get around using a wheelchair and a rollator (multiple sclerosis) and needed a carry-case with a pliable handle, and padding, to hang it on the armrests. Perfect! The zippered front pocket is big enough to carry my paperwork, the pen, and the adapter/plug/recharging cable. The bigger zippered compartment has lots of room around my 10inch Tablet. I've attached a photo for you to see. Great buy!
Needed a case for my Samsung Note 10.1. Was concerned if this would be a tight fit. There is plenty of room for my tablet in its leather cover. Side pouch is good to have for carrying charger when necessary or other things. Sturdy strap, easy to carry and strong zippers. Only for hand carry, no shoulder attachment.
This works great for my IPad2. I love the zipper part. It is big enough to hold your cell phone, wallet, tissues, cord for my IPad2, car keys and a few other things. You then don't need to take a purse or if your a man no wallet in your pocket or keys in he's pocket. Like I said its great !
This is much firmer than I thought it would be which is good. Its soft squishy material on the inside and should keep your tablet safe from scratches and such. I also love the outside pouch where you can store the charger away from the tablet. I did however not think it was going to be so much bigger than the tablet. There is about 2 inches of extra room on the side of the tablet and the inside of the bag and from the top of the tablet to the top of the inside of the carry case there is about 3 inches or more so the tablet can and will move all around inside of the case. The only thing I don't like about it is that it is not fitted well to a 10.1 inch tablet. It the case was better fitted for a ten inch tablet it would hold the tablet more securely. Other than that you cant beat the price and it seems to be well made.
I am very happy with this purchase. The case fits a 10 inch tablet with extra room and the outside zipper storage is great for the accessories.
I love this as it is lightweight yet padded well. Very well made.
I bought this for my 8" tablet. I wanted something big enough to comfortably hold my tablet, which I have a protective, folding case on. It also has two smaller pockets inside the front zipper pocket to hold my collection of stylus pens and enough room for my charger.
I was loking for a carrying case for my Tablet came across this on walmart.com and got it, It fits perectly for my table nice looking and easy to hold with the handles.
This FileMate Imagine Case for the Tablet is great. It has lots of room for everything. The only thing I was disappointed in was the color. It's very dull in color and not as it appears online. It looks like a bright purple but you receive a faded purple color instead.
I love this little case. It has a very soft fuzzy micro fiber lining and the outside is that stretchy rubbery feel cloth. I love the color also - very well put together and keeps your netbook safe!
satisfactory product
I bought this case when I ordered the Acer Iconia 10'1 tablet. It fits great and the zipper compartment has two pockets inside it. I carry the cords, a tablet stand my phone and a pair of reader glasses. It's great!
I purchased this case, in black for my ipad-mini. It is just perfect, the material is very soft, the case is lightweight. The larger side is great for my ipad and the smaller zippered side is perfect for booklets, etc. I would purchase this product again and highly recommended it.!!
Great buy for the money, better than I thought it would be
Fits the new tablet. Wonderful case with handle. Love it
This is a cleverly designed case. It is big enough for my tablet and Bluetooth keyboard in the main compartment. The side zipper pocket is perfect for my charger, adapter cords and USB hub. Hot pink was a great color choice. The outer shell is made of durable protective material and the inner shell is made of soft fuzzy material. My tablet and accessories are safely cocooned in this marvelous case. Oh, and there are two handles which I would much rather have than just a sleeve.
I love the tablet, it was pretty easy to setup for a senior, specially when you add a "Android Tablets for Seniors" book with it. Wish there were more precise instructions for using both the camera's front and back and on how to delete or remove Apps you don't use, but that maybe because I am not a young Techie anymore.
I ordered four of these to hold our boys' 8" tablets. The main opening is perfectly padded and soft for their tablets and still provides ample room for the tablet's accessories, including their cell phones.
Good product for the money. Accommodates 10" tablet and Logitech keyboard & case. Has side pocket for stylus & other small items.
Good price, just right for small notebook

Note that although the page described it as a straightforward procedure, I had a lot of trouble with it until finally giving up, because the tablet was used by my wife mostly for AutoCAD which cannot be run under wine. A couple of months ago, the tablet died, so I haven't had a chande to play with it again. On a related note, does anyone else have a recomendation on tablets? My wife will start searching for a new tablet soon and I would like to get her to buy one with good linux support. Cheers,

Really yummy!!! My picky husband even ate it.
Just finished this dinner. It's about time I tried one of your new recipes, Brian H. THIS is good eating. Followed the recipe exact, except used chicken breast rather than pork as it's what I had. This is simple and delicious and missing the pineapple that most restaurants go overboard with, thus, we loved it. For those of you reading this who have not tried a Brian H recipe- please do so. There's a difference between 'making dinner' and cooking. If you really want to cook- try one of his recipes. Always a winner and such fun to make.
