Video: Check out these tuna in action!
Historically, the giant bluefin tuna has been the quintessential big fish on heavy tackle. From the 1930s to the '70s, the spring migration of giant bluefin out of the Gulf of Mexico and past storied Tuna Alley, off Cat Cay in the Bahamas, represented the epitome of big-game fishing. Once the fish made it to their summer feeding grounds, few fisheries have ever demanded so much of anglers and tackle as giant bluefin tuna in the Canadian Maritime Provinces.
The legendary spots — Notre Dame and Conception Bay, in Newfoundland; North Lake, on Prince Edward Island; Wedgeport and Canso, in Nova Scotia — attracted anglers from around the world. The 1,496-pound IGFA men's all-tackle record caught by Ken Fraser on Oct. 26, 1979, out of Aulds Cove, in the Straits of Canso, stands today, as does Colette Perras' women's record, a 1,170-pounder caught out of North Lake on Oct. 2, 1978.
Wedgeport was home of the prestigious International Tuna Cup Match from 1937 to the late 1970s. Pioneer angler Michael Lerner visited that legendary port in 1935 and, over eight days, caught 21 tuna on the tackle of the day from a dory towed out to the grounds.
In the late 1960s, Capt. Buddy Merritt took his 42-foot Caliban from Florida to Newfoundland with crewmen Charlie "Splittail" Hayden and Gary Stuve, IGFA president E.K. Harry, and noted anglers George Mathews and Gil Keech, racking up impressive numbers while fishing Notre Dame Bay — and a long-held record of 16 giants in one day while trolling. This fishing lasted into the 1970s, when the overharvest of herring and the global demand for tuna took a toll on the fish.
Now, with the rebound of herring stocks, giant bluefins have returned to the Canadian Maritimes, providing a renewed chance to take part in this one-of-a kind catch-and-release fishery.
North Lake, PEI
Fishing with Capt. Scott Bruce on his Caroline Jake out of North Lake last September, I had an excellent chance to experience this great fishery. Our first afternoon, before we headed out of the harbor and through the narrow cut to the Gulf of St. Lawrence, fellow crewman Adam Sherer of New Jersey and I were joined by Paul and Leah Hebert of Louisiana and Texas angler Francy Fondren.
As we pulled up to the grounds a mile offshore, it was a dream scene. We watched huge fish busting and feeding on the herring falling overboard as the commercial boats hauled their nets. Bruce got us in position, and we began throwing the whole herring we had gotten that morning from a herring boat.
With Paul Hebert in the chair, we threw the first bait and hooked up within half a minute. The fish took line when Paul pushed the drag up, and he fought the fish for 25 minutes, then tagged and released a bluefin we called 500 pounds.
In 61/2 days of fishing, we watched this awesome show several times and cast hookless topwater plugs to draw explosive strikes to record on film and video — it was a mesmerizing scene. We ended up with 13 fish from 450 to 950 pounds. Bruce had two harvest tags, so Paul caught a fish weighing 837 pounds, and Fondren boated another that tipped the scales at 905 pounds.
Cape St. George, Nova Scotia
We also fished the past several seasons from Ballantynes Cove, at the tip of Cape St. George, on the northeast corner of mainland Nova Scotia. Ballantynes Cove is a 30-minute drive up the coast from Antigonish.
When fishing the noted Fishermans Bank, in the Northumberland Strait, between the southeastern coast of PEI and the northern Nova Scotia coast, you look for the same fish that swim the waters of North Lake. When herring move on the bank, the tuna follow. In the early morning hours, the herring netters start to haul their gear, and when they do, the feeding frenzy is on.
However, the herring boats are not always there, so sometimes you chum and put kites up to get bites. Jigging for Boston mackerel is an important part of the day, as live bait is key. A livewell full of fresh bait goes a long way in securing solid bites once you mark fish on your bottom machine.
The past several seasons out of Ballantynes Cove, longtime friend James Roberts has fished with Capt. Darrell Neary aboard the Hey Man's Honey. The pair has had numerous successful seasons, releasing several fish exceeding 1,000 pounds.
Roberts developed the terminal tackle system used by the majority of the fleet. This simple rig starts with high-visibility 130-pound Magibraid Dacron backing compression-spliced and served over one end of 100 feet of 130-pound mono top shot. The bait end of the top shot slides into a 4-foot section of Dacron for a compression splice, and the other end is spliced back into itself, forming a loop through one end of a SPRO 240-pound wind-on swivel. Another short 3-foot section of Dacron is looped through the other leg of the swivel, and the outboard end is spliced back through itself to form another loop. This is joined loop-to-loop to the loop on a length of Dacron that is compression-spliced to the mono leader. Crimp a hook on the end, and the wind-on is complete.
For bait, use a live mackerel hooked through the back or a chunk of chum with a hook buried in it to drift with the rest of the chum.

summer projects
So.. I figured I would post pics of the projects I am working on this summer so if any one else got the crazy Idea of build a root cellar or putting up a chicken coop, it might give them a hand.
First the coop in progress
My wife and my neighbor and my neighbor's wife squareing up a 12ft pole
and now the dig out for the root cellar we hope to also get don't this summer.
More pics will come as I progress.
Re: summer projects
I have lived in houses smaller than that chicken coop.

Re: summer projects
Half of it is going to be the run when there not free ranging and the other half a garden. The coop per say will be in the middle and each year we will flip flop the run and the garden so we can have fertilizer.
Re: summer projects
The price of eggs and chickens,this might be a great idea.I think the last dozen eggs I got were $1.69.ouch.Kevin

Re: summer projects
I am REAL interested in seeing how that Root cellar turns out. Have a plan for my own, but always ready to learn from another.
Re: summer projects
Your idea of flip floping the garden and chicken run will work good. Mother said that is what her Dad did. Plus all the chickens scratching and pecking the ground will help keep out unwanted grass. Grandpa only put his vegatable garden in there.
Re: summer projects
How do get the wife to help let along the neighbors wife? You must really be good.

Re: summer projects
Question... what the heck is a root cellar? I have never heard of one.
1951 McCormick Farmall Cub
Re: summer projects
its where you put the bodies when you run out of other spaces to bury them.
Re: summer projects
I used Wikipedia to get the answer and the idea is pretty neat, although I have a basment with a tornado shelter that stays pretty darn cool already. I could imagine that the root cellar would be even colder if dug 8-10' deep. Does anybody here have pictures of their root cellars?

Re: summer projects
HA HA HA That where you keep your roots,:D You no Taters , turnups etc.
Thats how you keep them during the winter They want freeze below ground and will keep well

Re: summer projects
There is also a watermelon that will keep well through December in a root cellar. I hope to have Christmass melon and make it a family traditon. You can also store preped meat and if you gell coat fertile chicken eggs they will keep for 6months. Yep fresh veggies in the middle of the winter. I cant wait.

Elliptical extruded aluminum case with domed endcaps and white finish
Floating gunlatch brackets grip the screen securely and are barely visible
Includes a 10' power cord, built-in IR receiver, and an IR remote
Warranted by manufacturer for one year against defects in materials and workmanship
Essential Info
The Draper 136117 Salara Plug and Play Projection Screen is a new generation in motorized projection screens. In your home or office, the Salara makes a design statement. The Salara's small, elliptical case and domed endcaps are finished in solid white. The Projection Screen mounts to the wall or ceiling with "floating" gunlatch mounting brackets which can be positioned along the back of the case. The mounting brackets make installation quick, easy, secure, and barely visible.
There is no wiring required with the Plug and Play Screen because you can just plug it into a standard 110V wall outlet and you are ready to go. The included IR Remote allows for convenient remote control from anywhere you can view the screen. An IR Receiver is hidden in the case of the screen.
Installation Guide
More Info
When selecting a front projection surface, several factors need to be considered:
- a relative measure of a screen's reflectivity.
- the ability to accurately reproduce and differentiate light and dark characters and backgrounds, or light and dark areas of an image.
Ambient light rejection properties
- the ability to perform well under normal to adverse audience lighting conditions.
- the clarity of the projected image.
- the screen's performance when viewed from various points off the projection axis (both horizontally and vertically), and when the brightness of the center of the image is compared to the corners.
Aspect ratio
- the screen's height and width configuration, formatted for the desired projection source (NTSC video, HDTV, WideScreen, CinemaScope, overhead, slide or motion pictures).
Textile Backed Screen Surfaces
- These surfaces consist of a reflective surface laminated to a woven textile base. The screen surface hangs suitably flat because of the stability of the material and the weight of the bottom dowel. Good for all types of projection. Commonly used for single lens video projection, as well as for CRT video and data-graphics projection.
Matt White
- The standard to which all other screen surfaces are compared. Matt white vinyl reflective surface laminated to tear-resistant woven textile base. A matt white surface diffuses projected light in all directions, so the image can be seen from any angle. Provides accurate color rendition as well as superior clarity. Recommended for use with all high light output projection devices. Requires control of ambient light in the audience area. Washable, flame and mildew resistant. Peak gain 1.0.
Glass Beaded
- Brighter on-axis viewing than matt white surfaces within a narrower viewing cone. Some loss of clarity. Not for use with ceiling or floor mounted projectors. Flame and mildew resistant, but cannot be cleaned. Now available seamless in all standard sizes through 10' high.
High Contrast Grey
- Grey textile backed surface offers excellent resolution while enhancing the blacks of LCD and DLP projected images, even as whites and lighter colors are maintained. Performs well in ambient light condition. High Contrast Grey's lower gain of 0.8 allows use with even the brightest projectors; viewing cone of 180°. Available on most non-tensioned motorized and manual screens, seamless in sizes up to 8' in height. Peak gain of 0.8.
AT Grey
- AT Grey offers the acoustical properties of our popular AT1200, while providing the best optical qualities of both Matt White and High Contrast Grey. It is unique in that it offers both a 180° viewing cone and the vivid color contrast associated with high contrast grey materials. Washable, flame and mildew resistant. Available in sizes through 6' x 8' or 10' diagonal. Gain of 0.8. Not recommended for screens smaller than 80" wide when used with LCD or DLP projectors. Peak gain of 0.8.
- Innovative and versatile acoustically transparent screen material. Similar in gain performance to standard matt white. Acoustical properties comparable to the finest speaker grille cloth. Peak gain of 1.0.
Tensioned Surfaces
- These screen surfaces are tensioned vinyl with no backing. Draper offers motorized, crank-operated and permanently tensioned screens with built-in tensioning systems. The advantage: the surface is stretched perfectly flat, resulting in better picture quality. Flatness is always desirable and highly recommended for video or data-graphics projection.
Rear Cineflex
- Neutral grey rear projection diffusing surface with an on-axis gain of 1.3. Cineflex has high resolution and excellent contrast, even in lighted rooms. For use with any type of projection equipment.
Flexible Matt White
-Pliable matt white material for use in our Cinefold portable folding screen. It can be stretched, folded and restretched repeatedly without damage. Flexible matt white is an excellent matt white material with a gain of 1.0 and a viewing cone of 180°.
HiDef Grey
- A grey front projection surface that provides greater contrast and black reproduction than standard surfaces, with a lower gain to handle today's super-bright projectors. The grey color enhances color contrast and black levels in the projected image and also allows for more ambient light in the audience area than traditional surfaces. Available on all tab-tensioned and permanently tensioned screens. Peak gain of 0.9.
- The perfect matt white diffusing surface. Extremely broad light dispersion and spectral uniformity. Panoramic viewing angle and true color rendition. Recommended for use with any type of projector in rooms where the light level can be reasonably controlled. Washable
- Higher gain surface provides good black retention with accurate light colors and whites. M2500 is black-backed, and tolerates a higher ambient light level in the audience area than many front projection screen surfaces. On-axis gain of 1.5.
Black-Backed M1300
- Our M1300 viewing surface with a black backing for situations where ambient light behind the screen is an issue. Peak gain of 1.0.
Low-Gain Cineflex
- New Low Gain Cineflex surface offers a wider viewing cone and added contrast level with a neutral grey tint. This is ideal in applications where ambient light is needed, yet you want to limit your hot spot. This should be considered when you have a bright projector and rigid screens are not an option. Some ideal installs may include churches, training centers, or other large venue need. To order 0.8 Low Gain Cineflex just add LG to the end of any part number for a screen with standard Cineflex viewing surface.
Uniflex White
- Uniflex Flexible Rear Projection Surface or Front Projection Surface. Draper's Uniflex surface is ideal for wide angle viewing including edge blending or multiple projection applications. This product virtually eliminates hot spots in either front or rear applications and is ideal to use with short throw lenses. Light control is suggested with this product. Rear projection .7 gain/Front projection .5 gain. To order Uniflex just add UW to the end of any part number for a screen with Cineflex viewing surface.
Aspect Ratio
- AV (audio visual) format screens accommodate a variety of projector types and range from square to wide horizontal in aspect ratio. AV format screens are described in terms of height x width, and are furnished without black borders.
- NTSC video format screens are specifically designed for use with video/data projectors. Their format is strictly defined as a 4:3 rectangle, and the size is usually described in terms of a nominal diagonal. Conventional models of NTSC format screens are furnished with black borders to frame the image on all four sides.
HDTV format (16:9)
- HDTV format is designed for high-definition television projection.
WideScreen format (1.85:1)
- WideScreen format is suitable for letter boxed video images.

SALEM, Mass. — Police are looking into complaints that a fortuneteller in the so-called Witch City is charging customers to lift evil curses placed on them.
Fatima's Psychic Studio is a 20-year fixture in Salem, which was the setting of the 17th century witch trials and is now a popular tourist destination in the weeks leading to Halloween.
Police are looking into complaints involving four customers from out of town, including one filed by a man from New York state who says he paid $16,800 to have a "shield placed over him to protect him" and to "channel angels," according to a report filed with the city's Licensing Board.
The report, filed by Detective Sgt. James Page, said another complaint involved a New Jersey man who went to Fatima's in August and was told he had a curse that the fortuneteller would remove for $500. The man declined but a few days later received a call from the reader asking again if he wanted the curse removed. The man said he refused a second time.
A city ordinance defines fortunetelling as "the telling of fortunes, forecasting of futures or reading the past," Page noted in his report, but curse removal isn't covered. The Licensing Board will meet Oct. 28 to consider renewing Fatima's license, which police said expired about a year ago.
Fatima's owner Harry Mitchell said he will respond to the questions raised in the report at that meeting. He told the board this week he has always been licensed but forgot to renew last year.
Asked by a reporter about the complaints, Mitchell denied wrongdoing and said he was "in discussions" with one of the customers in question.
Seperately Mitchell told police one complaint was due to a "misunderstanding and that he would speak with the reader to make sure it did not happen again," according to the detective's report.
Of the four complaints against Fatima's, two were recent, one was from last year, and another was a decade old. Page said there are no similar complaints against any other city fortunetellers or psychics.

New Year, New You 2010
Jan 4, 2010 7:00:35 AM
At the start of the New Year most of us are inclined to make a resolution or two. Whether for the fun of it (more coffee dates with friends) or a more practical purpose (spend less money on coffee) this tradition does have its merits.
But to get a resolution to stick it has to be three things: something we really want to do, something we feel will improve our lives and (let's face it) something that is fairly easy to obtain.
One change that should be at the top of everyone's list is decreasing our exposure to toxic chemicals. This may sound challenging, if not impossible. Right? It really is a lot simpler that you may think. By taking a few easy steps you can minimize your exposure to harmful substances and live a healthier lifestyle, helping out our earth along the way.
Thank you to our loyal Lavera Customers

Lavera recognized as Greenest Beauty Brand for 2nd Consecutive Year
Dec 9, 2009 11:52:50 AM
In November 2009, after a review of over 1800 cosmetic products, OEKO-TEST awarded Laverana the highest score out of 36 companies tested, beating out the likes of 2nd place Weleda, 3rd place Wala (Dr. Hauschka) and mainstream manufacturers such as Estée Lauder and L'Oréal. This comes on the heels of the 2008 study, in which OEKO-TEST awarded Laverana the highest score out of 33 manufacturers.

The fact that we are not particularly popular in the cosmetics industry cannot be denied. The ÖKO-TEST principle to advocate cosmetic products, which do not use controversial or other substances of concern, displeases many manufacturers.

Great tool which helped me a lot to find errors, code cleaner and optimize different things. With it's useful hints and examples on the issues it found i learned some things about c++ that i was not aware of before (and many others when i look at their code). I use it regularly because the benefits are great.
Just reflected on some reviews after compiling cppcheck with the latest mingw 4.8, as it builds from 25% to in my best case, 300% faster and more stable executables compared with "API drone msvc" There is some problems with the path interpreting procedures, mainly because the app have been under the bad influence of msvc conventions. The best remedy would be to use QT creator for all coding and abandon Visualstudio, and its portability corruption altogether Otherwise it's a promising project where some features work very good
Hi, I made a minimal interface application for External Tool between cppcheck and Visual Studio 2010. The application takes currently solution and selected project name, makes a source list with every needed source file and calls cppcheck with that list. Anyone interested on that can send me a message, I can give you the source code and/or binary file. Regards
I am using 1.64. Wonder why refresh button doesn't work. I have to reopen my project.
Works good on mac, but does not work on android (linux) at all because of file paths problems. Hope it will be fixed and i return back and set 5 stars for it

CNHI News Service
— With flu season beginning earlier than it has in more than a decade, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is warning that this season could be a bad one.
While more than a third of Americans have been vaccinated, Dec. 2 through Dec. 8 is National Influenza Vaccination week and the CDC encouraged everyone older than six months to get vaccinated.
According to the CDC, certain groups are at a higher risk for infection and vaccination is especially important to prevent complications.
Southern states have seen an increase in cases this flu season, causing doctors to encourage everyone to get vaccinated before flu season peaks in mid-winter.
Flu symptoms can include fever, fatigue, cough head and body aches, runny nose, vomiting and diarrhea.
Information for this story was provided by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Associated Press.

For Flores, the future looks bright
Nats catcher eager to help team contend in future
While the Nationals have generally struggled this season, the year has been a breakout one for 23-year-old catcher Jesus Flores. The Carupano, Venezuela-born Flores, who was a backup as a rookie to Brian Schneider last season, has taken over as the Nats regular catcher and become one of the most consistent threats in Washington's lineup. He's batting .283 with eight home runs and leads the Nats with 50 RBIs. Flores recently answered the following questions from MLBPLAYERS.com:
MLBPLAYERS.com: Can you discuss your season overall?
Flores: From the beginning, when I got the chance to play every day, I have put together a good season, I think. I've played well, and I have confidence in myself. Getting a chance to play on an everyday basis is what I've been looking for, and by working hard and preparing myself, I have gone out there with the idea to do well.
MLBPLAYERS.com: You lead the team in runs batted in. Is that a number you look at to help show people that you are having a solid season?
Flores: At the plate, I've focused a lot. I've been mentally prepared for my at-bats. When I have a situation where a runner is on base, I try and move him over, or, if we have a runner on third, I try to get a fly ball to the outfield. I have had consistent concentration during those times.
MLBPLAYERS.com: You are just 23 years old. How much more can you improve?
Flores: People might see me as being young, but I don't necessarily see it that way. I know a lot of things, and I have taken advantage of it, and I overlook my age. I feel that I'm smart, and, if I keep going and keep working hard, I can have a long career.
MLBPLAYERS.com: How is your defensive play coming along?
Flores: I believe in our coaches, and Pat Corrales has worked with me a lot in calling games and in overall game situations. I work on blocking balls and throwing well to the bases and catching popups. It's about trying to improve myself, both at the plate and in the field. That's why I'm having success.
MLBPLAYERS.com: You have battled to get to this spot. How have you worked with the other catchers during your time here?
Flores: We've had good catchers here. I have worked with Wil Nieves a lot, and we talk a lot about catching and the game in general. Paul Lo Duca and Johnny Estrada were also here before getting released. In all, it's important for us to all communicate.
MLBPLAYERS.com: You are from Venezuela. Is there a catcher, past or present, from Venezuela that you really admire?
Flores: Ramon Hernandez. He's a guy whom I've watched a lot. I've talked to him as well. He is a good catcher and a good person. I admire him a lot.
MLBPLAYERS.com: You started your career in the Mets organization. What do you remember most about being in the Mets organization?
Flores: I signed with them as a free agent. They are a good organization, and I enjoyed my time there. But now I am with this team at the big league level and I couldn't ask for anything else.
MLBPLAYERS.com: When you first came to the Washington organization, did you think it would be a good opportunity for you?
Flores: I knew I would have to do a lot to earn the starting position. I told myself that I could play every day. That was the goal in my mind, and all my preparation has been to achieve that goal. I have prepared myself every day to play every day.
MLBPLAYERS.com: Finally, while you have had personal success this year, the team has struggled. How do you balance that?
Flores: It's hard for me, because I'm behind the dish everyday. It's hard, but you can only control all that you can control. Playing is hard. I have confidence, though, that in the future we will be one of the better teams.

Oceania Exclusive Tour
For those travelers who prefer an added measure of intimacy and flexibility, we are pleased to offer our new Oceania Exclusive tours. With a minimum of 10 guests and a maximum capacity of just 16 guests, each tour benefits from a higher level of personal attention and the added flexibility and agility that come from traveling in a small group.
Oceania Exclusive tours are available for a specially selected number of tours in almost every port we visit, in every corner of the world.
The views change dramatically from coastal to rural as you drive toward St. Paul de Vence, which was founded in 9th century. By the 16th century, the beleaguered village was fortified by ramparts, which still stand today. St. Paul De Vence has also retained its medieval charm, one of its primary draws. This haven for artists boasts a number of fine museums such as La Fondation Maeght, which features contemporary works from Braque and Giacometti, among others. The local artisans are highly regarded for their weaving, woodwork and jewelry pieces, which are on display in the many galleries. You'll also enjoy exploring the village's small markets, repositories of fresh-cut, locally grown flowers and irresistible gastronomic treats.
Please note: This tour involves approximately 2 hours of strenuous walking on uneven surfaces with many steep inclines, and numerous stairs to climb along the sides of most streets and boutique entrances in the village. This tour is not considered suitable for wheelchair guests or those with mobility concerns. Comfortable walking shoes are recommended.

Rated 1 out of 5 by shoefanatic Adorable....but so painful I really wanted to love these! Beautiful shoe but the metal on the toe was really uncomfortable and they were just so uncomfortable overall. I returned them. Very disappointed. I ordered a 9.5, my usual size, and it was true to size. April 30, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by steele322 Beautiful shoes! These shoes are truly lovely. While I always like Tori shoes, I find some styles to be a bit too boring. These are the prettiest ones I have ever seen. The combination of the silver logo and the snakeskin is perfect. These shoes are a wearable piece of art. December 6, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Lesa323 Fits True to Size I bought these shoes at a Tory Burch Boutique in San Diego and I love the snake print! I bought the brown pair, because I was looking for an alternative to the leopard print. Purchase your true shoe size, because the leather does stretch!

Rated 3 out of 5 by Karen3 Reva Ballet Flat I love Tory Burch flats. However, I only gave this one along with all Revas, 3 stars b/c the elastic in the heel pushes my toes into the toe section & it eventually causes me to lose my toenails from the constant banging of my toes against the end of the shoe.. The style is cute but I only wish Tory Burch would quit putting the elastic in the heel section. October 9, 2013

San Francisco and its cycletracks lead the way toward safer biking statewide
San Francisco has been blazing the trail toward safer cycling with innovative designs such as cycletracks, or bike lanes that are physically separated from cars, which have been installed on Market Street and JFK Drive. But cycletracks aren't legal under state law, something that a San Francisco lawmaker and activist are trying to solve so that other California cities can more easily build them.
"Right now, many cities are not putting in cycletracks for fear they don't conform to the Caltrans manual," says Assemblymember Phil Ting, whose Assembly Bill 1193 — which would legalize and set design standards for cycletracks — cleared the Assembly yesterday [Wed/29] and is now awaiting action by the Senate.
Ting is working on the issue with the California Bicycle Coalition, whose executive director Dave Snyder is a longtime San Francisco bike activist. Snyder says Caltrans doesn't allow bike lanes that include physical barriers against traffic, even though they are widely used in other countries and states and considered to be safest design for cyclists.
"San Francisco is technically breaking the law because they have the best traffic engineers in the state and a good City Attorney's Office and they know they can defend it in court if they have to," Snyder said. "Most places in the state won't do that."
In addition to the direct benefits of the legislation in San Francisco and other cities, Snyder said the legislation seems to be triggering a long-overdue discussion at Caltrans and other agencies about how to encourage more people to see cycling as an attractive transportation option, with all the environmental, public health, and traffic alleviation benefits that brings.
"It's opened up a conversation about bike lane design and Caltrans' role in encouraging safe cycling," Snyder told the Guardian, praising Ting for championing the legislation. "It's having an impact beyond its immediate impact."
The Guardian is waiting for a reponse from Caltrans and we'll update this post if and when we hear back. [UPDATE 1/31: A Caltrans spokesperson got back to us and said, "It's our policy not to comment on pending legislation."]
Surveys by the San Francisco Bicycle Coalition have shown safety is the top concern of those considering riding to work or school more often. Ting said he hopes this legislation will address that concern: "By building more cycletracks in California, there will be increased ridership."
causes more congestion. It's not like putting in a bike lane, or a bigger bike lane, is a free lunch. The costs are simply projected out onto the other classes of road user.
What works in a dense urban environment is probably not suitable state-wide.
Give people safe alternatives to driving cars, and traffic will be less of a problem.
Is it to give safe alternatives, or to make driving so inconvenient that people do less of it?
nothing less than banning private vehicles from the city.
There are no cycle tracks in San Francisco, just double wide bike lanes with intermittent poles segregating bikes from cars, a pilot project.
Cycle tracks are "grade separated" from car lanes with concrete. There are more considerations, such as handling the dangers at intersections, that need to be ironed out before real bike tracks go prime time.
It is good that the City is pushing the boundaries on new bike facilities, but we need to resist the temptation of group think and demand an honest and full assessment of the implications of untested things.
Drastically diminishing the effective width of a street to install some luxury bike lane just to save one life for every billion bike miles traveled might be seen by some as excessive.
No, the luxury bike lane would be the one where you pedal my bike for me. And I'd sure love a mocha when you swing around to pick me up.
Toll bike lanes are next. I guess the bicycle ski lifts on the front of each Muni bus are kinda that.
that it is OK to break the law if it works to his advantage?
It's the author's position that sometimes laws take awhile to catch up to society's needs and norms. Antiquated laws governing cycling need to be modernized if we're going to encourage it and make it safer, from street design to differentiating between automobiles and cyclists at intersections. San Francisco should be a leader in changing the transportation paradigm and laws.
More broadly speaking, if you want to create a respect for the law, which I think is a good goal, then you need just laws that conform to human behaviors. Drug laws are another good example of this. As to the inevitable response that I'll get criticizing me advocating law breaking, I don't think laws are the final word on morality or progress. In this case, state law just needs to catch up to San Francisco's progress.
human behavior then it is bad law? And that therefore that law may and should be disobeyed?
So if lots of people practice tax evasion then the tax laws clearly should not be "respected"? If the DBI laws are ignored by property owners then those laws are "antiquated"?
I think you're essentially trying to rationalize the fact that you only want to obey laws that you personally happen to agree with. We all feel that way to an extent, but most of us stop short of not obeying a law just because it is inconvenient or irritating.
You forget Steven's incident with the cop on the Wiggle. Let me refresh your memory. Steven ran a stop sign and was pulled over by a motorcycle cop. Steven then proceeded to chew the cop out because he was enforcing a law that Steven disagrees with. The hell of it is, the cop was giving him only a warning and a reminder that it's a safety issue when Steven decided to go off on his tirade.
Apparently he feels he should only obey laws that he approves of. Well I don't approve of how this city refuses to issue concealed carry permits to regular citizens. By Steven's logic I should be able to carry my .45 whenever I want.
Thinkers from St. Augustine to Martin Luther King Jr. understood and discussed the concept of just and unjust laws, and they each said that we have no duty to obey the latter. Just laws see to the greater good and protect the weak from the strong or wicked. So tax laws, building codes, and gun control laws are just laws, while laws that discriminate against a certain class of people out of ignorance or malice are unjust laws. Laws that inhibit cycling may not be on par with basic human rights conflicts like laws that discriminate based on race, gender, or sexual orientation, but doctrinaire thinking about the law belongs more in a police state that free society.
later seen to be bad does not mean that the laws you oppose will be changed or will ever seen to be bad.
You seem to assume that you are the arbiter of good and bad. But then my view of good and bad laws is different from yours, so clearly there is a huge amount of subjectivity in any assessment of the law.
Ultimately you have to obey all laws and not just the ones you like. That's the whole point of laws, otherwise rich folks would just not obey the tax laws because they don't agree with them.
You can work to change the law, and you might even sometimes succeed. But until then, you obey them like everyone else, or face the consequences.
I think it's unjust that I, as a law-abiding San Franciscan, will not be issued a CCW. If I, or someone I care about or any innocent citizen for that matter, gets attacked by three 200 LB. guys, why would you deny me the only option of evening out the odds and saving my life? Why should you be able to not obey laws you don't feel are right, but I can't? Are you that much better and smarter than everyone else that you get to decide what is a just or unjust law?
they have a more ethically attuned sensibility than you or I have, enabling them to assert which laws are appropriate to obey, and which can be ignored. solely by reference to their elevated moral code.
I hear that Steven is preparing a little red book of his sayings, to be raised aloft by his disciples at every opportunity. It's called "charity is bourgois (sic)"
Steven, segregated bike lanes are Jim Crow, separate but "equal."
Good law - a law that Steven agrees with.
Bad law - a law that Steven disagrees with.
Happy to lend a hand.
following the law so they are bad. Cyclists who break the law are good. Drivers who break the law are bad.
Remember comrades - all animals are equal but some animals are more equal than other animals.
There is a process for changing CalTrans state transportation standards and any governing statute that is well established. The City is well within those standards as well as within CEQA by doing pilot projects. The data gathered from those pilot projects is going where it is supposed to, to Sacramento, to inform possible revisions to the standards and statute.
There is nothing illegal or improper going on here, "the system is working."
The city will not. Ask anyone who has been Ellis evicted contrary to the city's will.
You need to tweak yer bot.
State uber alles
When is SF's "system" going to even acknowledge the UC study that shows that cycling accidents---and presumably other kinds of accidents---are being significantly under-counted in San Francisco?
Putting up things that might not conform to caltrans is a "who really cares" type thing.
It is interesting how these things always work out to your advantage, as if you have this entitlement to decide what is good and bad for everyone. In this case you ride a bike so whatever you get that works out for you personally is good for all it seems.
This isn't even a moral or progress issue, it's just an issue where you want something and you get to ignore the law because it works out for you. Why the state is so much up in everyones business around these things is a mystery, but then our progressives want to micro manage everything, so you would understand that bureaucratic mentality better than most.
The state has a law that doesn't work out to your advantage so ignore the law, the city doesn't coerce people enough around what they eat, we need more laws on McDonalds.
They want zero tolerance towards the tax rules for AirBnB, for instance, even though the courts have not yet even validated SF's tax law on that matter.
But if it is a matter of a protester charged with damage or trespass, or a cyclist blowing through a red or stop, then that is perfectly OK.
When I moved to SF I was taught that residents believed in People over Profits.
Thus, in the case of a protester contesting an injustice, the protester has full protection as long as they don't hurt anyone or cause significant property damage.
In the case of a company scamming the tax system to cheat the community, we demand full compliance with all laws, if not more than the law requires to show the company's social value to community welfare.
Companies can always move to Aspen if they don't like following the local laws and customs here.
Most people came to SF to make a buck and don't give a crap about other people. This is the most tribal place I've lived.
Who "taught" you that residents of SF were in unanimous agreement on any subject? I'm very, very curious where and when you received your indoctrination on the subject. Do share.
The ability to speak for the people when they vote against you.
"people over profit"
"speaking truth to power"
"community welfare"
"open minded and tolerant"
San Francisco is leading the way in adopting sustainable transportation policies.
Congrats to SF activists, traffic engineers and CA's Office for leading the way on this. I had no idea the bike traffic separators were skirting the law.
Caltrans is the one of most significant transportation agencies in the country, if not world. If they can start adopting smart design improvements that encourage significantly safe biking routes throughout the state, that could start a huge trend everywhere. Congrats again to everyone working on the issue.
If you object to changing the state law let your representatives know:
And let your city officials know by signing this petition and leaving comments.
Stop SFMTA: http://discoveryink.wordpress.com/letters-and-comments/san-francisco-off...
In fact, state law is generally more sensible than SF law.
Under the provisions for pilot projects, these bike lanes are perfectly legal, not against the law. The Guardian makes a cottage industry out of reporting in ways that are easily used against the constituencies they claim. They do this because they choose to do this. The question is, why does a "progressive" "news" outlet that claims activist cred publish material that paints its activist base as law breakers?
Mandatory Bike Helmet Laws! How many people need to die before the Supervisors act?
I suggested this to Sup. Wiener, who replied he didn't think it was politically expedient.
For him.
accident then the cyclists waives all rights to compensation if he was not wearing a helmet.

Eels are deadly striper baits, both at night and during the day. They can be fished a dozen different ways and are effective almost anywhere these great game fish are found. The challenge is using a delivery system that matches the conditions. With 30 years of chasing stripers behind me, I've seen more ways to fish an eel than you can shake a graphite trigger stick at. I've culled them down to five methods that can get an eel in front of bass almost anywhere they are found, taking into consideration structure, depth, tides and currents. If you want to catch more bass, add eels to your repertoire.
Joe Mahler / www.markerjockey.com
1. Casting
Casting live eels and swimming them on a slow retrieve is deadly. The tactic can be used from shore or from a boat, in back bays and inlets, and along open beaches, any place bass are working shallows, but it is particularly deadly at night. A friend of mine caught a monster 57-pound bass by walking the sod banks at night in Barnegat Bay, New Jersey, casting a live eel with spinning tackle. I've used the technique from my center console for years, casting to beach and inlet jetties and near shore rocks, pretty much anywhere I might throw a plug, but because the eel's a live bait with an enticing wiggle and scent, it's usually more effective than slinging plastic or wood.
The rig I use consists of a 7/0 circle hook tied to a 30-inch length of 50-pound fluorocarbon leader with a mini barrel swivel attached to the running line. I rarely add weight, because the eel is being retrieved slowly to keep the line tight. A light- to medium-action spinning outfit will cast the average eel far enough to be quite effective.

Considerations for Travelling
As a Boomer reaching retirement, you may look back at the time backpacking in Europe following college with fondness. Now you have some time on both hands, you may want to savor carefree travel again. With time and money available, you can travel the United States or travel the planet at any age; however health, terrorists, and the economy could possibly make your post-retirement trip a little different than the 1 you took at twenty two. Traveling can be enjoyable, but when you journey at 65 in this point in time, there are some considerations you must bear in mind, especially for foreign journey.
Age is no barrier to visit, but your health as well as condition may determine where you decide to go. Backpacking may possess lost its appeal. If you cannot walk long distances or are confined to some wheelchair, you need to check on how accessible your chosen destination is going to be. This information can be from your travel agent or even from web resources such as Reids Guides. If you've dietary restriction or the sensitive stomach, make sure to look at the meal choices of the travel destination, eat wisely to avoid eating unsafe foods, and stay with bottled water.
Regardless of the general health, you have to be prepared for unplanned emergencies whenever you travel. Take along your medicines and copies of prescriptions including generic alternatives in the event you lose your medication or go out, and carry a medical alert card for those who have allergies, diabetes, or other health problems a physician needs to understand before treating you. Make sure to check your insurance protection, especially for foreign journey. Some policies provide international coverage, while other policies might have limitations. You can prepare by investing in a travel policy, which may include Med-vac services to obtain you home quickly in the event of emergency.
The events associated with 9/11 changed travel permanently. Those events and following acts of terrorism possess spawned invasive security checks and limitations on which you can pack and keep on flights, and have usually made airline traveling much more inconvenient and stressful. In conjunction with this, many airlines possess added baggage fees, removed meals, and increased fares so that they can keep up with increasing prices. All of this means you need to prepare more carefully for air travel than previously, whether you are flying several hundred miles to Vegas or a few 1000 miles to China. Going by plane may be the quickest way to get at where you're going, so make sure to get the airline earlier, prepare yourself for a few longer security lines, as well as pack light.
Once you get to your destination, you wish to feel safe. Make sure to investigation the political climate of where you stand going in advance and do lots of research about how to become safe in that nation. Though you may wish to travel inexpensively, pick the safe, secure hotel as opposed to the least expensive one. Leave your high-value jeweler in your own home. If you want to determine how the "real people" live beyond common tourist areas, ensure that you travel in a team and ideally, with an area guide. Always have your passport along with you, watch your purse or even bag, and stay notify.
Travel can be fun within the next stage in life, but planning ahead of time is critical. Especially if you're going abroad, be sure to analyze all aspects of your own trip. You may not feel as carefree while you did at 22, but for proper considerations while vacationing, you can still possess a safe and enjoyable journey.
