Sergio Salvador salvadorphoto.com LocovoreMonte Vista Fire StationN.M. beef burns down the houseIt's amazing how a building as big and beautiful as the Monte Vista Fire Station can stay so hidden. The only Pueblo Revival-style fire station in, well, anywhere was built just before World War II and put up for sale in 1972, when it was no longer big enough for a new breed of fire trucks. Hoses used to hang from the roof of the tower all the way to the garage, which is now the dining room of the Monte Vista Fire Station bar and restaurant.

VA comes under fire for telework policy
Thursday - 2/9/2012, 5:30am EST
Emily Kopp, reporter, Federal News Radio
But the Board of Veterans' Appeals has thrown a wrench into his plans by stripping him of his telework privileges.
U.S. Rep. Frank Wolf (R-Va.) (AP photo)
The cap "violates the Telework Enhancement Act of 2010 by explicitly precluding expanded levels of telework," Preston wrote.
One of the law's sponsors, Rep. Frank Wolf (R-Va.) has asked VA Secretary Eric Shinseki to explain the policy.
"There is no excuse for discouraging telework participation, either by slow implementation or disincentives, such as additional work requirements for those who telework," Wolf said in the letter.
He intervened in a similar dispute in 2008, when the Board of Veterans Appeals had required teleworking attorneys to carry greater workloads than non-teleworking colleagues.
The correspondence comes on the heels of new Congressional Research Survey data indicating that VA lags behind other agencies on telework.
The Telework Enhancement Act of 2010, which Wolf cosponsored, was supposed to make telework standard practice at agencies wherever possible. It required agencies to develop telework policies, designate a telework coordinator and integrate telework into their emergency operations. It also directed agencies to determine whether employees were eligible to telework.
VA has classified 87 percent of its workforce as ineligible for telework, according to CRS.

"But in the central office here in Washington, we have a significant percentage whom we believe would be eligible," he said. He faulted reluctant managers for the low numbers.
"We need to do a lot more to educate our managers and supervisors and get them to shift their paradigm around telework," he said. "First and foremost, we need to make sure that the managers are convinced that this is not only a good thing for the employees, but for them; that they can provide the oversight necessary to get the job done; and that telework is an important way for the department to save money."
Agencies need to hold managers accountable through their performance evaluations, said Rep. Gerry Connolly (D-Va.), another cosponsor of the telework law. "That's how it's going to be taken seriously. Things get done that get measured," he said.

The agency has hired 50,000 new workers nationwide since 2009, he said. In Washington, the buildings are bursting at their seams.
"We can't accommodate all of our employees," he said. "So what I'm saying to my colleagues is, we're going to have to work on ways that you can have more of your people telework."
The agency could convert underused offices into "touch-down" space, which teleworking employees could use when they come in, he said.
"I do expect a significant cultural war in these departments with that notion because if there is one thing that people will defend to the end, it's their real estate," he said. "We want to leverage this real estate crisis, if you will, and try to get more teleworking done."
Survey: Telework still elusive at many agencies

By Jamie Dupree
Republicans tried to push back against the White House in the battle over the fiscal cliff on Monday, offering a plan that allowed for some increase in tax revenues, but also called for more in the way of budget cuts.
The new GOP plan would bring in $800 billion in new tax revenues from broader tax reform over ten years - not by allowing the Bush-era tax rates to expire for more wealthy taxpayers as the White House has proposed. That GOP figure of $800 billion in new revenue is half of the $1.6 trilion that the Obama Administration wants to raise in new tax revenues.
The GOP plan envisions $900 billion in savings from mandatory spending programs, and another $300 billion in cuts to the regular discretionary budget, which is already being squeezed with previously approved cuts over the next ten years.
As with the White House offer handed over to Congressional leaders last week, there are few details or specifics - rather, Republicans argued this is a framework that can lead to a broader deal.
"Again, the American people expect their leaders to find fair middle ground to address the nation's most pressing challenges," read a letter sent to the President by House GOP leaders.
But the reaction from the White House was much like the GOP reaction last week to the President's latest offer, as the White House immediately denounced the over $2 trillion plan.
"While the president is willing to compromise to get a significant, balanced deal and believes that compromise is readily available to Congress, he is not willing to compromise on the principles of fairness and balance," said spokesman Dan Pfeiffer, as Democrats said the rich would get off easy and the middle class would not.
Still, the mere fact that Republicans had presented a counter-offer - despite the quick rejection by the White House and Democrats in Congress - seemed to at least show some progress in this tax and budget dispute. We'll see if the White House makes the next move.
In their letter to the President, Speaker Boehner and other top Republicans said they could have just come back with a very partisan plan that would have gone nowhere - but they tried to find some middle ground instead.
Both sides again made clear on Monday that they don't want to budge on the Bush tax cuts, as the White House still wants them to expire for those making over $250,000 per year, while Republicans want to extend the rates and cuts for all taxpayers.
Tick, tick, tick.

Comments about Too Faced Shadow Insurance Anti-Crease Eye Shadow Primer, Glitter Glue, .35 fl oz:
This is the only way to use loose glitter.
Eye shadow first, then glitter glue with finger or brush, then glitter with finger or brush.
I use a silicone applicator to apply the glitter.
The glue can go on lips, eyes, whatever.
Goes on matte, won't mess up your eye shadow or lipstick. You can even put it on over existing glitter and add more glitter.
It's literally the only thing that keeps that freaking glitter in place.
Looks AWESOME. Totally profesh.

Appleby saw a drop in numbers last year, with a net loss of 15 lawyers including 11 partners. Partners quit for firms including Mourant Ozannes and Withers, and natural attrition was also blamed.
Nevertheless, the firm is still one of the largest offshore players and, with a presence in jurisdictions such as the Seychelles and Switzerland, has one of the widest global offerings. Bermuda remains the firm's largest office, with 136 staff in total including 17 partners, but the Cayman, Jersey and Isle of Man offices are all sizeable, fielding about 30 lawyers each.
Significant hires last year included Conyers Dill & Pearman's knowledge management head Barbara Padega to the new role of global knowledge management director. This coincided with the redevelopment of Appleby's internal knowledge management platform. Using 'wiki' technology, the platform is designed to allow a more collaborative approach to knowledge sharing. Better interaction with clients is another focus, through the use of client portals.
Appleby has also undertaken a review of its work processes, resulting in the formation of sector-facing teams to mirror the way onshore firms work. Client teams led by relationship partners have been formed, so referring firms have a single point of contact. The firm has also continued interviewing clients to get feedback to improve service delivery.
Other areas of investment last year included Appleby's client relationship management system and the creation of a common fiduciary management platform.
Appleby also intends to grow its fiduciary offering, in contrast with other offshore firms, which are reducing their reliance on this area, as well as expanding in Asia, particularly China. The firm is not ruling out further new offices.

2dr Conv 640i
Starting at | Starting at 21 MPG City - 31 MPG Highway
For buyers in the market for a true grand touring car, the BMW 6-Series is among the best choices on the market today. And for 2012, the controversial styling that may have kept buyers away in the past is gone, replaced by a much more sophisticated and clean overall look. It's a great choice for those in the market for both performance and comfort on an equal plane, with a strong foothold in a segment also populated by the Mercedes-Benz E-Class and the Jaguar XK.
The BMW 6-Series is completely redesigned for 2012, with new styling and increased power from an all-new 4.4L V8. The new model is three inches longer and slightly wider than the car it replaces, with tighter and cleaner front end styling, new headlights and a lower trunk line. Again offered as a coupe or convertible, it is available in one trim only for 2012: the 650i.
The 6-Series is BMW's flagship 2-door grand tourer, offered in both coupe and convertible body styles. For 2012, it's been redesigned on the outside, giving it a much leaner look than the previous model with a lower trunkline, revised grille and headlamps, and new tail lamps. And although it looks smaller due to the redesign, it's actually three inches longer and an inch and a half wider than the car it replaces, helping to increase interior room.

Review: 2011 Ford F-450 Lariat
Industry Giant Still Working Hard to Stay Ahead Ask any economics professor – competition is a good thing. Exhibit A? The large pickup truck market. Ford F-Series trucks have been the number-one selling vehicle line in the United States for more than three decades, but the automaker has never grown complacent. Each new iteration has been bigger, badder and more capable than its predecessor, and that goes twofold for Dearborn's heavy-duty models. Despite the fact that Toyota and Nissan never followed up their light-duty trucks with three-quarter or one-ton models, just the... Read More

Mazda shows off a concept SUV in Moscow
Over the last auto show season, Mazda demonstrated its new Nagare design direction with a whole series of concept cars, named Nagare, Ryuga, Hakaze, Taiki, and Furai. Now the company is seeing how one of these low-slung cars would look at SUV height. The new concept SUV will be shown off at the Moscow Auto Salon from August 29 to September 7.

Smartphones, tablets to fatten holiday e-commerce sales
Although the e-commerce space is set to see strong sales in the US this year, a large portion of that success will be due to smartphones and tablets.
Total e-commerce spending this holiday shopping season is expected to rise by 15 percent to $61.8 billion, new data from research firm eMarketer shows. Shoppers on smartphones and tablets will account for 16 percent of all purchases made through e-commerce sites. In 2011 and 2012, mobile's contribution to sales stood at 7 percent and 11 percent, respectively.
Perhaps more importantly to e-commerce sites, eMarketer expects mobile shoppers to accelerate their … Read more

Governor Tours Tornado Damage in Pike County
Governor Bentley visited the hardest-hit areas at Brantley Mobile Home Park in Troy and County Road 2214 in Goshen. He says the state will help provide resources storm victims need to recover. Fifty-two homes were damaged or destroyed in Pike County on Christmas Day. Damage like this is something Governor Bentley's seen before. "We may be the tornado governor of the country, with all the experience we had with April twenty-seventh and we just want, I think it's very important to come out and visit people, and see the damage," he said. "I think there'll be a big excitement down here, knowing he's concerned about us down here," said Tony Watling, who lives at Brantley Mobile Home Park. On Friday, Bentley said the state has applied for low-interest loans through the Small Business Administration to help storm victims. "Anyone who needs a small business loan can apply for that. We can do that very quickly without having to address the damages when we apply to FEMA," he said. Bentley said it's not clear if FEMA will provide aid to Alabama. However, cleaning up the damage will take time and a lot of money. "I you have insurance, hopefully your insurance will cover it. If you don't have insurance, then it's very difficult, and then we have to look for other ways to help people, whether it is through a small business loan or whether it's through the governor emergency relief fund," he said. Governor Bentley says the governor's emergency relief fund is also accepting monetary donations to help the storm victims. For more, on how you can help, click here. Most Viewed |

No halfway measures will do
Feb 07, 2014
"Acting is interesting, very much like practice in that in both cases you have to project yourself imaginatively into your life, be fully committed to the truth of who you are, what you are about, at any moment — be willing to open up your life completely, no halfway measures will do. Ritual is like acting— in fact theater comes from ritual — in which you heighten your presence in order to perform a non-ordinary imaginative act."

Feb 02, 2014
You don't need a dramatic story of ascent and descent - even a quiet modest life ends in total loss. Awakening is letting go of self and world - that's liberation. Letting go you find something else. Not a new identity, a new self, a new belief system. Something completely different. Letting go itself. I am arguing that Lear does finally let go - but he has to be beaten into it.

Yale University comprises three major academic components: Yale College (the undergraduate program), the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, and the professional schools. In addition, Yale encompasses a wide array of centers and programs, libraries, museums, and administrative support offices. Approximately 11,250 students attend Yale.
Yale's roots can be traced back to the 1640s, when colonial clergymen led an effort to establish a college in New Haven to preserve the tradition of European liberal education in the New World. This vision was fulfilled in 1701, when the charter was granted for a school "wherein Youth may be instructed in the Arts and Sciences [and] through the blessing of Almighty God may be fitted for Publick employment both in Church and Civil State."

Product Description
Premium quality aquarium gravel in a wide array of colors. Sold exclusively at PetSmart.
A good quality gravel bed is needed in the aquarium to assist in mechanical and biological filtration. Top Fin aquarium gravel fits the bill, and with such a wide variety of terrific colors, you can choose one or more to accent the overall look of your aquarium.
- Use 1 to 1.5 lbs. of gravel per gallon of tank.
- Rinse thoroughly in cold clear water before using. Never use soap or detergent.
- When filling your tank, place a saucer on the gravel and pour water onto the saucer. This will prevent the water from disturbing your layer of gravel.
- The aquarium gravel bed will become a home for beneficial bacteria to keep your aquarium healthy. Once your aquarium is established, do not wash the gravel -- just use a gravel vacuum once a month to clean out loose particles.
Note: Gravel may contain minerals that affect water pH. Monitor your water pH after adding gravel and adjust as necessary to avoid sudden pH changes.
Made in the USA.
Available in 25 lb. bags.Colors:
- Midnight Black
- Pebble Beach
- Caribbean Sea
- Bright White
- Mardi Gras
- Deep Blue Sea
- Classic Beach

Giordana Merino 7 Wool Socks $14.95
Way classier than wearing sheep pelts on your feet.
Falling temperatures require more calculated steps towards layering before setting out on your next ride. The Giordana Merino Wool Tall Socks feature a tall, 7-inch cuff (nearly 18 centimeters) that layers comfortably underneath the cuffs of your winter tights, and should extend past the tops of most shoecovers as well. Giordana uses a premium New Zealand Merino wool that is warm and lightweight, highly breathable, and exceptionally soft -- these are all excellent qualities for cycling, and equally suitable for those off-days at the office too.
As we've written before, wool doesn't have to be scratchy. Merino wool is soft and comfortable. But in terms of overall use, durability and ease of care, 100% Merino isn't desirable. Giordana spun both nylon and Lycra into the fabric blend to ensure these socks will not wear out, or stretch out after extended use. Just remember to wash them on warm, and tumble dry (or simply hang them, as they should already be somewhat dry right out of the washer), they'll do fine.
The Giordana Merino Wool Tall Socks are constructed from a blend of Merino Wool, nylon for added durability and wear-resistance, and Lycra for stretch. You'll have two sizes to choose from: Small/Medium, which fits shoes sized 4.5 - 8.5, or Large/XL, which fits sizes 8.5 - 13.

Been wearing these under some Castelli shoe covers in 40-50F temps and loving it. These socks are tall, in fact they come up to the bottom of my knickers and completely cover the skin between my shoe covers and knickers. Perfect! Size 44.5 shoe, L/XL socks.

In HOME TO HAWK RIDGE, Steve Rider is a teamster. He's a logger and uses a team of horses to harvest trees. This is big business in some parts of the country. It's a low impact alternative to clear cutting. We used a team when we just wanted a few big trees removed from our property, but didn't want someone to come in and chew up the forest with a big machine.
In my story, Steve's favorite mare is a Percheron. Beautiful Beth is a shining black beauty. Percherons are a draft breed, like the more familiar Clydesdales and Belgians. They are also called plow horses, but that term conjures up an unfair clumsy image. Does the horse in the photo look clumsy to you? But they certainly are work horses. I'm amazed by their strength and willingness to cooperate with insignificant fleas like us.
Steve handles his team with the ease of an eight-year-old girl handling her bicycle. He's done it all his life. He knows horses and he knows trees. In my story, he's about to get to know a bit of magic.
Here's an excerpt:
Steve fried up a loggers breakfast, with eggs and sausage and pancakes from a mix. Just add water and fry them up. Hed spend the day at the farm with Beth. Beautiful Beth. The first Percheron his dad ever bought and she remained the only one. She was moody and cross, with a slick black coat that glistened when she sweated. But Beautiful Beth could snake a log out of thick woods like no horse Steve or Ben Rider had ever seen. She was worth the trouble.
She wouldnt stand for a shoeing worth a darn. A leaner. Shed lift her massive hoof just fine and balance her eighteen hundred pounds on three legs. But within a few minutes, as Steve scraped and carved the hoof, shed start to lean into him. Stooped over, with a fifty-pound hoof in his hands, her mass pushing against him just about did him in.
Still, she was an awesome horse and he was damn fond of her. He just knew it would be nightfall before hed be done with her feet. He looked out the kitchen window at the dreary morning and sighed. A familiar sadness dribbled in rivers down the glass and over his heart. He missed his dad.
On his drive out of town, he thought about Kat. Her long blonde hair caught every ray of light as she stood up on the wall. When he lifted her down, her feather-light frame seemed to drift to the earth. When he kissed her he felt a spark. Not metaphorically, but a real damn electric zing. She invited him back to her place. Why the hell didnt he go? His social calendar wasnt exactly jam-packed with mystical god-desses rappelling from the clouds. It wasnt jam-packed with anything but horses. Have you ever danced naked with the moon-light warming your skin? Her words echoed
Wait a minute. Dancing.
Sure. Kat had invited him to dance in the moonlight. That detail had eluded him, and there it was. He tittered to himself and reached to the dash for his can of Copenhagen. Last night he must have had one foot in a dream, one foot in a memoryand the image of those seductive blonde curls swirling around her naked body.
Whew. He was still a healthy American twenty six-year-old with horny fantasies about beautiful girls. Not some ballroom dancing candy ass. Mmm. Dancing naked with Kat Just the thought brought his unit to attention. Thats better.
So, why did he leave her? He couldnt explain it, and hoped hed be invited again. Maybe he could ask her out on a date. He suddenly realized he had no way of contacting her. Hadnt even bothered to get her last name. He knew a nice pair of tits when he saw them but was pretty sure those werent listed in the phone book.
When he arrived at the farm, he huffed open the large panel door of the barn and caught the pungent smell of horse pee. His herd presently numbered four. Two muscular Bel-gians, a good-natured Clydesdale, and Beth. A smart-ass tom-cat supervised the crew.
Good morning, Sweetness. Steve reached into the cob-web-covered cubicle where laying hens were supposed to roost. The burly orange cat stretched and accepted the plea-suring behind his ears. Did you lay me an egg?
True to his name, Sweetness bit his thumb. Steve moved on to bigger things. The horses poked their noses from the stalls to welcome him. He gave each one a caress along the blaze. Except Beautiful Beth. She had no blaze, but accepted the affection with dignified haughtiness along her sleek, black snout.
You in a good mood today, Beth? Huh? Steve pulled a treat from his pocket and slipped it into her mouth. Keep her happy.
He opened the back door of the barn and let the other thundering hooves out to kick off steam in the pasture. To Beth, he offered another treat. He grabbed her halter and slipped it over her head, noticing the fleecy covering on the rub spots. His dad had taken special care with Beths equip-ment in an effort to placate her grumpy moods. Steve laughed. It might take more than fleece. He slung the nylon lead rope under her chin and through the ring to fasten it. Then, with the obvious clippity-clop of three horse shoes and one bare hoof on cement, he escorted her down the alleyway and out into the yard. The slate gray October morning snuffed any chance the sun had to warm the air. He cross-tied Beth and began to curry her coat. More shameless buttering up.
As a light mist moistened his face, he pulled his farrier stool into position and examined the horseshoe hed selected for Beth. Damn that was a big hoof, even for a draft horse. With a heavy sigh, Steve went to work. Beths good will could wear off at any moment.

Social Networking for Fashion Doll Lovers
A place to tell the community about your very latest doll. Pics would be welcome too so we can get a 'proper' look at your little treasures :)
Tags: "fashion, doll", dolls, fashion, doll, fashion, dolls, , latest, latest doll, purchases
My latest purchase was the Dollcis doll Grey. She is truly beautiful, one of the most realistic and breathtaking dolls I have ever seen. Although I can't say so much for the pricetag.
I bought her on the secondary market since she was an FDQ Exclusive like her sister, Devon. The lady whom I bought it from somehow let the little bun top fall down and she put it back together for me. It turned out fine, although I had to pay $50 more than the retail when it wasn't even in the same condition as the retail! Anyway, I had my first BJD problems -- one of her arms was strung too tight. I've gotten used to it, but her arm never stays to her side....The lady was very helpful though in making sure I understood about how BJDs have some stringing issues. Paul Pham fixed the stringing problem right away with Devon!
You betch-ya! She's the beauty modeling my dress dress on the ice. She's also the one in the white organza ensemble and the grey silk gown.
Fun topic!!! :D
well obviously the last dolls I acquired were the two Pams I got from Spain thanks to Lilly :D
I'm also still waiting for two Pam dolls from Germany, they should arrive this week... I hope. eBay apparently sent my old address to the seller a month ago (!), and she just got them back. Sigh.
Can't wait to get those because they're Pams I've never seen before in any catalogue, with a different box design and everything..! So excited! I'll post pictures when I'll get them :)

If there's a crucial part of the internal-combustion technology that provides your vehicle the energy it requires to do what it must do, it's the Porsche 911 fuel pump-a part that shouldn't be taken lightly. While your Porsche 911 is really a sturdy machine on its own, with a damaged fuel pump, it may possibly not be able to work as it needs to.
For the short term, a busted Porsche 911 fuel pump can and will render your engine somewhat unstable; its capability to burn fuel efficiently will be affected-which you'll really feel via misfires and stalling. In the course of startup, your Porsche 911 will struggle, if it even starts in any way. If you're looking at the long-term, the result of a damaged fuel pump is simple, but toxic on the wallet: a filthy, unproductive engine that'll lead to reduced gas mileage.
Issues with your Porsche 911 fuel pump don't need to take weeks or months to fix; at Parts Train, it is possible to take hold of a high quality one from big manufacturers like Delphi, Motorcraft, and Denso-you'll even discover that we sell at the most reasonable prices to help you experience both quality and economy when looking for your much needed parts.

Why does the bike fall when its speed is very low or close to zero and is balanced when going with a high speed?
The surprising answer is that the stability of the modern bicycle has little or nothing to do with centrifugal force or gyroscopes or any of that. Look up "bicycle stability" on Google. Experiments show that the sloped angle of the front fork is very important, e.g. If the fork pointed backwards it is very difficult to stay upright at any speed. At higher speeds a very slight turn of the handles moves the bicycle under the center of gravity of the rider quicker, so that the dynamical stability is improved. As usual experiment corrects theory here. See the answer of Tristan at Does leaning (banking) help cause turning on a bike? as well for an even better answer See the comment of nibot below for a reference to an actual definitive article. |
A report appeared in Science today which addresses this exact question: Kooijman et al., Science 332 (6027): 339-342, "A Bicycle Can Be Self-Stable Without Gyroscopic or Caster Effects." The abstract reads: There is also a blurb in ScienceNOW that you can read without subscription. Here is a free-to-read preprint. |
When you walk on stilts or skate, you don't balance by being very careful. You don't even balance. You're continually out of balance, and you keep moving your point of support so that you arrest your fall in one direction and start falling in another. If you're on a bicycle moving very slowly, you do the same thing. You keep moving your point of support left or right to arrest your fall in that direction. If you're moving slowly, it takes more steering motion to accomplish this, so you "wiggle about". At higher speed, it takes less steering motion to do that. That works even in the absence of gyroscopic precession, caster, or rake angle. Just watch a scooter with tiny wheels, or a ski-bike, or a unicycle. Now, throw in rake angle. Turning the handlebars to the right moves the point of support to the left, even if you're moving very slowly, so that helps. Now, switch to a high-speed motorcycle with a nice, heavy, gyroscopic front wheel. When it's traveling at a good speed, that thing precesses, no matter what people say, and its precession goes in exactly the right way to powerfully maintain stability. So it's not an all-or-nothing single-explanation deal. |
The basic concept (at least, as I've heard it) is angular momentum. As a bike wheel turns, it has an amount of angular momentum proportional to its rotational speed, associated with the plane of rotation of the wheel. This makes it act basically like a gyroscope: it "resists" any change in the amount or direction of that angular momentum, in the same sense that mass "resists" any change in the amount or direction of its velocity. This basically slows down the tipping of the bike to the point where you are able to prevent it by pushing down on the opposite side pedal. |
Here's an interesting talk on the subject, from the point of view of control theory:
oneat's answer is correct (I would have commented but I think I'm going to need more space) Imagine a vector (line) starting at your center of gravity. The line represents all the forces acting on you. When you are standing still, the direction of the line is straight down (gravity is the single force present). To not fall over whens standing still on a bike, you have to keep the point where the line intersects the ground (let's call it point A), between the two wheels of the bike. If you don't, you'll start tipping over. When standing still, the only way to affect that point is to move your center of gravity which you do by shifting your weight. Now let's say you're moving. If you're moving in a straight line, at a constant speed, everything is the same, the only force acting on you is gravity. But if you change direction, you get centrifugal force (as oneat correctly pointed out), the same as what you get when you make a sharp turn in a car moving at speed. The value of that force is proportional with your speed, your weight and the speed of the turn. This centrifugal force is added to the gravity, and changes the direction of the resulting force acting on you. Remember point A? If you're riding your bike and it starts to lean to the right, point A starts to move to the right and the bikes leans even more, and so on. But, you instinctively know to turn your bike to the right. This causes a centrifugal force, pointing left, to appear). If point A is still between your wheels then you're fine. If you're moving slowly, the centrifugal force is small, so you have to take the turn more sharply to compensate. If you're moving fast, you might only need to nudge your bike a little to compensate. It's explained in more detail here. (I actually thought of looking it up in wikipedia only after writing this answer, I don't have time to read the article now, hopefully I'm not too wrong) |
We have a series of papers on exactly the topic of this discussion, but a bit more narrowly defined. That is, how and why can a bicycle balance itself? In short, how does a moving bicycle balance itself? For a variety of complicated reasons it steers in the same direction as it falls. And, if you will excuse the sloppy informal physics language, because of the resulting curved path, thecentrifugal forces, push it back upright. What complicated reasons? Partially from the trail (or castor effects), partially from the angular momentum of the spinning wheels, and partially from other effects related to geometry and mass distribution. But there is no simple single necessary mechanism that we know of. For example, our paper in Science Magazine shows that a bicycle can be self-stable without no castor (no trail) and with no spin angular momentum of the front wheels. We have written several papers and supporting documents. And we have in these a pretty exhaustive coverage of the literature. So if you want to know what we think, what others have thought, and what we think about what they thought, it's all there. I don't think you will know of some important reference that we have not reviewed and described. You can start with my www page http://ruina.tam.cornell.edu (or google ruina bicycle or google schwabb bicycle. The www site includes photos and videos including simple explanations of some of these things. |
The answer is "Centrifugal force" The biger your speed is the biger this force is too. You can notice that when you steer left you make your bike's slope on left side. And Contrifugal force don't let you fall (when your steer angle is constant at the end bike will make a circle). Then when you make your bike steer more left your bike returns to the balance because you increase that force (it comes from equation). When your speed is smaller contrifugal force is smaller and bike is harder to steer so you can fall easier. |

CLB3 encodes a B-type cyclin that activates Cdc28p to promote the transition from G2 to M phase of the cell cycle. Progression through the cell cycle is a carefully regulated process that is conserved throughout eukaryotes. Periodic activation of cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) are required for this process; the critical CDK involved in cell cycle progression in yeast is Cdc28p (7). Cyclins are the regulatory subunits that activate CDKs at the appropriate time in the cell cycle; they were first identified in sea urchins and named for their cyclical accumulation during particular phases of the cell cycle (8). CLN1, CLN2, and CLN3 encode the yeast G1 cyclins while there are 6 B-type cyclins (CLB) genes involved in activation of S, G2, and M phases of the cell cycle (7). With the exception of CLN3, there are pairs of homologous cyclin genes that share common functions (7, 9). Genetic interactions have shown that CLB3 and CLB4 may both be involved in DNA replication and spindle assembly as well as the G2/M-phase transition(3). CLB3 and CLB4 transcripts accumulate during S phase and G2 (3). Like the other Clb proteins, Clb3p and Clb4p contain a destruction box motif in their amino termini, which may target them for ubiquitin-mediated degradation by the proteasome (7). It was inititally proposed that the Clb proteins play a role in the degradation of the G1 cyclins (10), but it was later shown that G1 cyclins are unstable in G1 phase, and Clb activity is not required for their degradation (11). There are excellent reviews by Lew et al.(7) and Mendenhall and Hodge (4) that describe cell cycle control in S. cerevisiae in detail.
