The street fight over bicycles, in NYC and SF
[Ed Note: SF State Professor Jason Henderson, whose work we've covered for years, wrote this op-ed for the New York Times and customized this version for us]
A few weeks ago Wall Street Journal editorial board member Dorothy Rabinowitz inflamed the contentious street fight over urban cycling in America. Decrying bicyclists as an all-powerful enterprise and New York's Mayor Bloomberg as an autocratic ideologue, her immediate target was the new bike share program rolled out in New York City in late May.
For San Franciscans familiar with bicycle politics, Rabinowitz's charges are nothing new and invoke a long tradition of anti-bicycling rhetoric from the right, even in the Bay Area. Over the last fifteen years working as a transportation scholar, I have heard conservative politicians and pundits from Atlanta to San Francisco charge bicycle advocates of having dangerous political intentions and dismiss urban cyclists and their concerns.
But if there is one thing about Rabinowitz's rant that was compelling, it was her suggestion that bicycling can be ideological. She's right, although somewhat misdirected in explaining her point. Perhaps we can use Rabinowitz's grand intervention into this ongoing discussion as an opportunity to consider and deconstruct the ideologies behind urban cycling debates. It's worth considering, because ideology does matter in the politics of urban mobility.
For example, policies supporting bicycling come from all kinds of folks, and sometimes lead to strange ideological bedfellows that merge the interests of real estate with more progressive, green viewpoints. In the last decade real estate interests in cities from New York to San Francisco, from Atlanta to Chicago, have embraced bicycling as a key part of economic development. From an entrepreneurial angle, a successful city is one that has a youthful, fit, "creative class" that can chose to bicycle. Ideologically, this is the "neoliberal" stance, wherein access to bikeable streets is also useful for marketing the city. New York's Citi-Bike is a great example: the bikes are draped in corporate logos and yet make dense urban space more functional and attractive for investment. And if you have a Citibank credit card, you can get a discount.
This neoliberal, market-oriented bicycle politics is very different from the last forty years of progressive bicycle advocacy in San Francisco and around the United States. Progressive bicycle advocacy is steeped in an ethos stressing that social responsibility requires less driving and more attention to how one moves around cities. It is not about marketing real estate, or banks. Progressives see bicycling as part of the solution to global warming, reducing oil consumption (and averting the need for the Keystone Pipeline) and a myriad other environmental and social problems. A progressive framework conceptualizes mobility as a systemic problem that requires deep social commitment and responsibility. How we get there matters. It posits that there can be too much mobility, as exemplified by high levels of driving in our cities, and that excessive mobility results in both environmental degradation and major social inequality at a local, national, and global scale.
The conflation of a neoliberal politics of bicycling with a progressive politics of bicycling contributes to a confusing conservative backlash against cycling. The pronounced conservative discourse vehemently opposes re-allocating street space toward other modes like bicycling or public transit (progressive policies) and also invokes a populist outcry that car drivers are victims of schemes to price gouge them and make driving more expensive for all but the wealthy and chauffeured (neoliberal policies). Instead conservatives advocate that new development in cities should have abundant and inexpensive parking for automobiles and that government should preserve easy and inexpensive automobile access throughout cities – even in Manhattan and San Francisco. Conservatives balk at creating cycle tracks by removing car space on city streets, and when bikeways are implemented conservative activists protest that the "bike lobby" (a term Rabinowitz used, resulting in a rather hilarious Twitter handle, @bicyclelobby) controls city hall – when in the case of New York AND San Francisco, it's actually neoliberals.
At the national level, Rabinowitz's conservative claims of an all-powerful bicycle enterprise and totalitarianism speaks to the broader conspiratorial anti-Agenda 21 screed often heard from Glen Beck, Tea Party activists and Republican allies. Drafted in the early 1990's, Agenda 21 was an innocuous set of United Nations recommendations for environmental sustainability, but right wing activists have twisted it to suggest that efforts to provide public transit, encourage bicycling, and build communities that are walkable are part of some sort of grand plot to overthrow America. This kind of backlash rhetoric dangerously resonates with a not-insubstantial portion of the electorate. In San Francisco we've heard conspiratorial rants in dozens of public meetings about the proposed "Plan Bay Area" – so much that planners have diluted the plan such that 80% of all future trips will still be in cars and there's no real ambition for bicycling or transit-oriented development that reduces driving. The fear-mongering on the right has worked and now progressive San Franciscans are asking if Plan Bay Area is worth it.
Ironically, conservatives preach unfettered markets and entrepreneurialism, which is what CitiBank and New York's mayor are doing in their neoliberal bicycling strategy. Yet Rabinowitz and her local and national conservative anti-bicycling cohort are lashing out at bicycling and conflating neoliberal politics with the progressive hue. Perhaps we can start to disentangle this and move forward when we look more closely at the ideologies in the urban mobility debate.

That means they know how to lobby and advocate, and achieve success way beyond their relevance.
But in SF a significant proportion of the people are totally sick of their arrogant, entitled attitude, and their seeming unwillingness to obey traffic laws. In addition, two pedestrians have been killed by rogue cyclists in the last two years, further souring public opinion.
And the cyclists solution to every problem they meet is "take away the parking" or "take away a traffic lane". They take but never give. And of course the very young, the very old, and the disabled cannot bike anyway, so it's an elitist form of travel.
So I do not expect SF to turn into Copenhagen any time soon.
How many pedestrians have been killed by motorists? What should cyclists (the majority of which are also motorists and car owners) give? The very young are prohibited form driving as are some of the very old via doctor's orders and/or family interventions. If anything in this world is NOT elitist, it's cycling.
The way to get people out of their cars is to build rapid reliable transit.
Muni is slow, unreliable, uncomfortable, filthy and sometimes unsafe.
Actually, that sounds just like my car! (come to think of it, also my bike!)
how precious
1) Need to move several people
2) Need to move heavy items
3) Need to go where Muni doesn't go
4) Need to travel at night or Sundays when service is sketchy
5) Need to feel safe and comfortable
6) Dirt and health issues
7) Speed and reliability
and so on
have more affluent white individuals than the cycling community. I'll now argue against every point you made:
1. This week alone I've witnessed two car accidents on Van Ness, from DRIVERS not obeying traffic laws. The implications of a driver not obeying a traffic law are much more dangerous than a cyclist ignoring a traffic law.
2. ***964 people were hit and either injured or killed by DRIVERS in San Francisco in 2012 alone*** That is exactly 1,928% (yes percent) higher than your rate of cyclists injuring pedestrians each year.
See article here:
3. Bike lanes to not take as much space as a driving lane, so when a driving lane is "taken", the space is created for people who ride bikes AND people who walk, sit, and eat on the extra space provided. It is not only people who ride bikes who are "taking" away from cars, it's also, in your opinion, the thousands of pedestrians and customers of businesses who use the extra space (for their safety and enjoyment).
4. The very young, the very old, and the disabled ALSO CANNOT DRIVE A CAR.
Thanks for considering these points.
illegally, dangerously and inconsiderately, cyclists always whine that "well car drivers are worse".
That's like a child who, caught out doing something naughty, tries to retort that "well other kids do it too".
No, fix your own house first and then we'll listen to you.
Disabled people can drive in many cases, which is why we issue thousands of disabled stickers. Cycling is elitist because you have to be young, fit and fearless. If you're a 70 year old woman, you're just SOL.
What do you expect them to give when the automobile already has it all?
Guess what? The very young, the very old, and the disabled generally cannot drive either. You want to talk about elitist? Driving gets even more elitist because under-16s can't drive but they can certainly ride a bike. Of course it gets more elitist yet because a car will set you back $20,000 just to buy it, let alone filling the tank.
Why don't you stop being pwned by the Saudi Arabians and ride a bike for America?
20 miles of freeway with four bags of shopping and two kids with me?
How do I pick up my ageing mother and take her shopping on a bike?
How do I move furniture around or go to the city dump on a bike?
Will all my deliveries arrive on a bike rather than a FedEx truck?
Bikes are the opposite of public transit. They almost always only carry one person. Even a car can be used as a taxi or be pooled for commuting or errands.
If you want to go and like like the Amish, then fine go ahead. But bikes will not work for the 99% of Americans who actually have a life.
becoming dated. It has been official US policy for some decades to gradually reduce our dependence on all those whack jobs in the MidEast. And we have been quite successful through a combination of nuclear power, better fuel efficiency and of course fracking which is already turning the US into an energy exporter again.
Peak oil turned out to be another myth like Y2K and global warming.
that you're talking about and how do you propose that it be done?
people who claim to speak for everyone because their learned speech pattern has them claiming to speak for "the people," although this "we" loses a lot of elections and alienates a lot of people through their antics.
And those who speak in the third person plural on behalf of "The People" often hold "The People" in the utmost contempt and wonder why "The Left" never gets traction.
The shared goal of both the progressive and neoliberal wings of the bicycle movement, after all, is to CREATE mobility for bicyclists. Mobility gives people options -- of jobs, housing, recreation.
The evil is environmental destruction -- from tailpipe emissions, production of fossil fuels, sprawling land use -- which driving either directly causes or strongly promotes. The reason why the bicycling movement reduces evil is it encourages people to shift their from highly destructive modes (cars) to far less destructive ones.
concepts like good and evil into their politics?
Peace between bike riders and others (drivers and pedestrians) will begin when Critical Mass ends.
Peace will only happen when both bicyclists and motorists have all of the same rights and are held to all of the same responsibilities.
Bicycles do not have all of the rights to the road because there is no enforcement that disciplines motorists not so inclined to uphold their end of the bargain. About half of motorists are awesome and show and get respect. Many now even wave us through 4 way stop signs because they realize that conservation of momentum is paramount.
If the law is to be enforced against cyclists disproportionate to the contribution of our law breaking to the injury and death counts, then that gives autos a pass. The law needs to be enforced as a public health intervention where scarce resources are dedicated to enforcing the laws most likely to damage the public health against specific conduct that actually presents a real, not theoretical danger. Running a stop sign at midnight in a quiet neighborhood is not the same public health threat as running the stop light at Van Ness and Market during rush hour.
If bikes what equal rights, access and usage of the roads, then I want to see training, tests, registration, licensing and insurance of bikes and their riders.
and still don't get it.
"The left" are for bikes, and "the right" are against. There are a bunch of other narrow positions built upon by the author but left versus right is the key there.
Not giving "the left" everything they ask for is because of "the right."
Not agreeing with "the left" is conspiracy addled from "the right."
This is why we(some of us) pay taxes to support colleges, this is why tuition at all the U's keeps going up. We tax payers finance these simple minded ravings of the professional experts who complain that they don't get their way because of the other extreme minority.
The author is in dire need of doing what our self described intelligentsia insist is a good thing. Get out and see the world, notice that there is this cross section of the world that doesn't hold to goofy left/right ravings.
And maybe seeing everything through a "if I don't get my way it must because of the far right" will broaden our self appointed transit expert.
Bikes are part of the picture - not all of it. I think Mr. Henderson is just trying to get this type of conversation in the fore front - how we arrange our work & living spaces and how we get around.
The big challenge is trying to shift the way our modern society is organized. We can start moving to a better arrangement or throw up our hands. America has always been able to find solutions and not be defeated by foreign threats. The real test will be to see if we fail in these challenges due to our own internal lack of will/leadership.

While the Saeco suite of products focuses on superautomatics such as the Odea series, Talea series, or the Xelsis, they also manufacture a few excellent entry-level semi-automatic espresso machines like the Saeco Aroma and Saeco Via Venezia.

All camp invitees will be divided into three teams, competing with and against each other during ice sessions and scrimmages across four days. Camp will culminate with the annual Red/White Game on Sunday at 1 p.m."We look forward to watching everyone and seeing how they've grown," Chiefs Director of Player Personnel Chris Moulton said.Over 20 players return from last season's squad, headlined by the three 20-year-olds Mitch Holmberg, Mike Aviani and Eric Williams.Holmberg, a forward from Sherwood Park, AB, is the team's leading returning scorer after an 80 point (39 goals, 41 assists) campaign in 2012-13. Aviani, a forward from North Vancouver, BC, led the 2012-13 Chiefs in plus/minus while scoring 68 points himself, 30 of those coming as goals. Williams, a goaltender from Langley, BC, returns after an impressive 2013 WHL Playoffs, during which he posted a .900 Save Percentage."It should be a competitive camp amongst veterans. Many young players will push veterans as they form a new leadership group."Headlining the new faces around camp are the Chiefs' two 2013 CHL Import Draft selections, Adam Hascic and Dominic Zwerger. Hascic, from Trencin, Slovakia, was selected 46th overall while Zwerger, from Dornbirn, Austria, was selected 106th overall. Both players are expected to contribute as forwards on the 2013-14 roster."We're excited about both imports. They will add skill to our team," Moulton continued. "This will be one of our more competitive camps in years. There will be lots of new faces with a chance to play this season."All ice sessions will be free and open to the public.

FGCU Drops Two to Eastern Michigan
FORT MYERS, Fla. – Despite overcoming a three-run deficit, FGCU dropped its first game to Eastern Michigan, 4-3, before falling, 4-0, in the night cap at the FGCU Softball Complex on Wednesday night.
With the losses, the Eagles fall to 5-11 on the season, while Eastern Michigan improves to 7-2.
In game one, EMU struck first in the top of the third and added runs in the fourth and fifth to lead FGCU 3-1 heading into the bottom of the fifth inning. The Blue and Green scored senior Courtney Platt (Naples, Fla./Gulf Coast) on Brittney Garabedian's (Miami, Fla./Gulliver Prep) single up the middle in the fourth.
Freshman Jessica Barnes (Winter Park, Fla./Haines City) hit a two-run shot over the left field wall in the bottom of the fifth to tie the game at 3-3.
The Green and White took their final lead of the game off a single through the left side. Lindsay Smith reached on a single before advancing on a sacrifice bunt and ground out. With two outs, Stacie Skodinski singled up the middle to bring Smith home.
Redshirt senior Catherine McDaniel (Melbourne, Fla./State College of Florida) (2-5) took the loss, giving up two earned runs on five hits and two walks in seven innings. She struck out three. Eastern Michigan put in three pitchers with Jenna Ignowski (4-1) picking up the win in 2.2 innings of work, striking out five.
In the second game, the teams were scoreless through the first three innings before Eastern Michigan tallied four runs on five hits in the fourth.
EMU's pitcher Lauren Wells (1-0) limited FGCU to just one hit over the final three innings to earn the shutout in the circle. She allowed just four hits, while striking out seven.
Sophomore Stephanie Sullivan (Venice, Fla./Venice) (2-3) received the loss, allowing nine hits and four runs, while allowing no walks and fanning four.
Platt had two hits, both in the second game, while earning three walks and scoring one run.

CASSELTON, N.D. (AP) — A fiery oil train derailment's near-miss of a small North Dakota town had its mayor angrily calling for federal officials to do more to guarantee the safety of the nation's growing shipment of oil by rail.
Government regulators defended their record on moving hazardous materials by rail, noting that 2012 was the safest year in the industry's history. But oil trains have bucked that trend, thanks in part to the massive amount of oil being moved out of western North Dakota, where the industry's rapid growth is far outpacing pipeline development.
No one was hurt when the mile-long BNSF Railway train derailed Monday afternoon near the eastern North Dakota town of Casselton, but the overturned tankers — exploding and engulfed in plumes of flames and black smoke for more than 24 hours — burned so hot that emergency crews didn't even attempt to put out the blaze. Most of Casselton's roughly 2,400 residents agreed to temporarily evacuate due to concerns about unsafe air.
"This is too close for comfort," Casselton Mayor Ed McConnell said yesterday.
While the overall rate of oil train accidents remains low — less than 0.1 percent of crude-carrying tank cars have suffered accidental releases this year — there's been a sharp increase in the number of releases over the past several years. That's driven by a surge in drilling for unconventional shale oil in North Dakota and other western states.
Through early November, the most recent data available, crude releases have been reported from 137 rail cars in 2013, according to an Associated Press analysis of federal accident records. By comparison, only one release was reported in 2009, before the boom got well underway.
The rail tracks in eastern North Dakota run through the middle of Casselton, about 25 miles west of Fargo. McConnell estimated that dozens of people could have been killed if the derailments had happened within the town.

The season-ending injuries suffered by Jon Beason and Thomas Davis in Weeks One and Two decimated the Panthers' linebacker corps. Carolina had to turn to backups early on, but fourth-year veteran Jordan Senn waited until even more injuries piled up at the position before he was finally given a chance to make his first career start. Senn has started each of the past five games — the last four on the weak side after filling in for Dan Connor in the middle in Week 11 — and has greatly impressed head coach Ron Rivera, who has been emphasizing the fact that many of the team's players have a chance to win or lose jobs for next season based on their performance over the last portion of the season. The Panthers have been desperate for help at linebacker, and Senn, who is due to become an unrestricted free agent after the season, can provide it. He's a player Rivera is going to want to keep.

Prescription Drug Insurance
How to Save On Drugs - Government Programs
You can save on the cost of your medications by exploring federal and state government programs. Whether or not you have health insurance with drug coverage, these programs may help you save money.
Understanding Your Doctor's Prescription
Your doctor uses abbreviations (based on Latin words) that tell your pharmacist which medication to give you and directions on how to use that medication. Learning to read a prescription immediately after your doctor writes it will help make sure that you know what medication you are getting. It will also give you a chance to ask questions about your doctors instructions.
Understanding Your Health Plan Drug Formulary
A drug formulary is a list of generic and brand name drugs that are preferred by your health plan. Since your health may limit the medications it will pay for, it is important for you understand your health plan's drug benefit and formulary.
Foreign Pharmacies - Buying Drugs from Canada and Mexico
Buying drugs in Canada and other foreign countries can save money. Due to the high price of prescription drugs, many Americans buy their medications by crossing the border into Canada and Mexico or when they travel to a foreign country.
Online Drugstores - Are they Safe?
Online pharmacies can provide you with an easy way to buy medications at a more affordable price. Online drugstores are convenient if you live in a rural area, do not drive, or if you are disabled, frail, or homebound. Online drugstores let you compare drug prices and shop for bargains.
Pill Splitting - Splitting Pills Saves Money on Medications
Splitting pills has become a popular way for people to save money on some prescription medications. Learn how to split pills safely and what types of pills cannot be split.
Save Money on Drugs – Online Information to Help You Save
Save money on drugs by going online. The Internet is a valuable source of information if you are having difficulty paying for prescription medications.
Low Cost Drugs - More Ways to Save Money on Your Medications
As medications continue to rise in price, the cost of treating a chronic illness may become a serious burden. Whether or not you have health insurance, these eight tips may help you save money on your medications.
Generic Drugs - Are They as Safe and Effective as Brand-Name Drugs?
Whether you have prescription drug coverage or not, if you use generic medications when appropriate for your health condition you can save money – often more than 50% less than the brand name drug. But, are generic drugs safe? According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), generic medications are as safe and effective as the brand name equivalent.
Low Cost Drugs - Ten Ways to Save Money on Your Medications
Save on the cost of drugs by following these 10 recommendations. You can find cheap drugs or less-expensive alternatives by taking charge of your healthcare.
Generic Drugs - Save Money with Generics
Generic drugs can save you up to 80% on the cost of a prescription when compared with the brand name drug. Generic drugs are readily available to treat many common health conditions. More than 50% of all prescriptions in the U.S. are filled with generic drugs.
Mail Order Drugs - Buy Your Drugs Through the Mail
Mail order drugs may be available through your health plan or Medicare Part D. Mail order drug programs are convenient and can save you money.

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) - The nation's highest court has refused to review state court rulings that require Louisiana's property insurer of last resort to pay an estimated $110 million to individuals whose claims were not timely addressed after Hurricanes Katrina and Rita.
Monday's U.S. Supreme Court ruling is one of the last hurdles in the lawsuit although Louisiana Citizens Property Insurance Corp. has related lawsuits on appeal in the state court system. The company provides insurance coverage to homeowners and businesses unable to obtain it from private companies. The judgment was levied against the company for its slow movement in paying hurricane damage claims in 2005.
The Times-Picayune reports (http://bit.ly/Ld7gjo ) Insurance Commissioner Jim Donelon says he hasn't discussed the ruling with Citizens' officials or attorneys and is unclear of the company's next step.

Your new baby is a wonderful gift, but it can also give the gift of life to another child.
In this edition of 'Smarter Living,' we meet Maalik. He's staying at the Ronald McDonald House of Durham with his mom. He's alive today because of a cord blood donation.
Thanks to a cord blood donor, 2-year-old Maalik is beating the odds.
"Cord blood is the baby's blood left over in the placenta or the afterbirth after the babies born," said Joanne Kurtzberg, director of the pediatric blood and marrow transplant program and the director of the Carolinas Cord Blood Bank at Duke University.
Maalik has a metabolic disease called Hurler's Syndrome. The expected life span is only five years.
There are a few things that make cord blood unique.
"It's been a long journey," Brinson said. "We spent about three months in inpatient."
Last year Maalik underwent intense preparation for the transplant, first undergoing nine days of high-dose chemotherapy.
After that came the infusion of cord blood cells.

Asthma Answers
Eventually, starved for oxygen, the body takes drastic measures to slow breathing so CO2 can build back up to safe levels. These measures produce the classic symptoms of an asthma attack: Smooth muscles tighten around the airways, the body further constricts them by producing mucus and histamine (which causes swelling)�and we're left gasping for breath.
Catch Your Breath
Once I understood that breaking the cycle of overbreathing is essential to overcoming asthma naturally, I could draw on all my years of experience with pranayama. I experimented with breathing techniques to see what would restore my natural breath rhythm. Over time I settled on a handful of exercises that were both simple and effective at slowing my breath rate and reducing the incidence and severity of my asthma.
There are certain precautions to consider as you embark on this program. Please do not stop taking your medications. The program may ultimately reduce your dependence on medication or enable you to do away with it altogether, but this should not be done hastily or without the approval of a doctor. If you have diabetes, kidney disease, or chronic low blood pressure, have had recent abdominal surgery, or are pregnant, you should consult with your physician before doing these exercises. I also strongly suggest that asthmatics avoid additional breathing exercises which call for rapid breathing (kapalabhati/bhastrika), retention of the inhalation (antara kumbhaka), or tightening the throat (strong ujjayi). Asthmatics must realize that many breathing exercises which are quite beneficial for a normal breather may have a paradoxical impact on an asthmatic.
Let me stress that patience and perseverance are required in this program. The disrupted breathing patterns common among asthmatics are deeply ingrained and can take a while to change. The truth is, it can seem easier to take a pill or use an inhaler than to spend 15 minutes a day on exercises that confront these stubborn patterns and bring up the fears and emotions that often surround the disease. I know the frustrations firsthand.
But I also know, from my experience, that if you make these behavioral changes a daily regimen, you'll gain valuable tools for managing your asthma.
Breath Retraining Tips
Here are a number of practical guidelines that will help your efforts be more successful.
At first, practice the exercises in order. You may eventually find you prefer a different sequence, and that's fine. (You may also have other exercises that have helped you in the past. Feel free to include them.) But whatever you do, I recommend you start each session with the Deep Relaxation exercise.
Don't be too ambitious. Resist the urge to do more even if you feel you are ready. Wait a few months before increasing your efforts.
The exercises work best on an empty stomach, but you should sip water to help keep your airways moist.
For optimal results wear warm, loose-fitting clothing and practice in a comfortable place where you have room to lie down on the floor. In this position, less effort is required for your diaphragm to move well. However, if you are experiencing asthma symptoms, lying down may be uncomfortable. In that case, try sitting on the edge of a chair and leaning forward onto a table. Rest your head on folded arms and turn your head to one side. But you don't need such ideal conditions to practice; I encourage you to do exercises whenever and wherever they come to mind. I often practice while I am driving.
