As the Washington State Legislature enters its final few weeks, some significant bicycling legislation is still alive and seems to be heading for the governor's pen. It's a combination of repeated attempts at passage for a couple of the bills, broad support for ones that are less controversial, and an all-important lack of budget requests.
The four issues that have made it to the final stages of reconciliation and floor votes are:
- Traffic school safety education
- Complete Streets grant-making mechanism
- Transportation project design amendments
- Vulnerable users bill
One bill, which sought authority for local authorities to impose a 20-mile-per-hour speed limit on non-arterial roads in cities in towns, died in committee.
Traffic school
The Traffic School Safety Education Bill, HB 1129, was proposed by the Bicycle Alliance of Washington (BAW). It was not controversial and enjoyed broad support by lawmakers, and by the end of March it was awaiting Gov. Christine Gregoire's signature.
It's an extension of a law passed in 2008 that "requires all driver's education schools, both public and private, to teach a curriculum about bicycles in traffic," says Dave Janis of the BAW. "This takes it to the traffic schools," those court-mandated refresher courses for drivers who commit serious offenses.
A typical traffic school class lasts eight hours, and the bike awareness section would take up no more than one half-hour. The BAW will provide the curriculum and materials free to the schools.
Complete Streets
"Complete Streets" is a transportation design concept that says a street should be designed, built or renovated for all users: private vehicles, public transit, bicycles and pedestrian traffic. That means including bike lanes and sidewalks, something that road designers have not always done. Some communities in the state have implemented Complete Streets into their transportation planning.
The current bill,
SHB 1071, "would create a grant program so that local jurisdictions that pass a Complete Streets ordinance can then apply for money to implement the ordinance," says Janis. The bill does not have any appropriations attached to it, but "essentially puts a placeholder in the budget" to allow for future funding when the state's finances improve, he says.
Roadway design standards
Broadening the scope of resources that could be used in designing transportation projects is the goal of HB 1700. It would "give jurisdictions some guidelines they could use in Complete Streets projects," explains Janis.
Currently, "local design manuals are out of date and inflexible," says David Hiller of the Cascade Bicycle Club. This causes communities to "have a very limited palette of options for making cycling better." The new rules would also give communities more confidence that they wouldn't be sued over making changes that are not in the state highway design manual or local agency guide, he says.
At the
National Bike Summit in Washington, D.C., recently, the
National Association of City Transportation Officials unveiled its Urban Bikeway Design Guide that lays out choices for cities wanting to improve bicycle transportation in places where there are competing demands. Hopefully HB 1700 would encourage use of such up-to-date resources.
Vulnerable Users
The biggest change to state laws would come from the "Vulnerable Users" bill, SB 5326, which is also in the final stages of debate in the legislature. This is the third version of the bill to be proposed in as many years, and it stands a great chance of being passed into law, says Hiller. Cascade Bicycle Club has been the lead organization proposing and advocating for the bill.
Hiller says the "concept has been refined enough and legislators have heard enough from their constituents" over the past two years for support to reach a tipping point.
The bill would mandate stiff fines, loss of license or other penalties for negligent motorists who cause a death or serious injury to a "vulnerable user" (bicyclist, pedestrian, disabled person or motorcyclist) if a collision happens in the course of committing another infraction.
"The real crux of this bill is that outcomes matter," says Hiller. "A DUI with a death is not a DUI with a tragic outcome; it's vehicular manslaughter. If you have an unsecured load in your vehicle, it's simply an infraction, but if you kill someone, it's a felony."
Possible fines would range from $1,000 to $5,000, and drivers charged under the bill would lose their licenses for 90 days. A driver could reduce the fine to $250 by showing up in court, completing a traffic safety course, and doing 100 hours of community service.
"It will hopefully encourage people to behave more responsibly around populations that are defined as vulnerable," Hiller says, although "we'll have to watch it closely to see if it has its desired effect."
Hiller says that fighting for this bill has been an emotional experience, working with families of crash victims who have shown "courage and strength" to speak out in support of the law. "On memorial rides, we've seen these people, shared their stories, and they've really looked to us and put their faith in us."
Passage would be "a relief," he says, and also a milestone. "There's only one similar law in the country, and we don't think it's as good as ours, and that is in Oregon."
Funding Seems Secure
Most of the bills require very little cost to the state, a good thing in times of extreme budget deficits. The Vulnerable Users bill carries an estimated cost of $48,000 for implementation over two years, which Hiller says is known as "decimal dust" in the Olympia budgeting world.
Other bike and pedestrian programs take more money, but funding for two popular programs seemingly will be spared the budget axe. There is $11 million budgeted for the Safe Routes to School and Pedestrian and Bicycle Safety programs, both administered by the Washington State Department of Transportation.
Paula Reeves, manager of the Community Design Office in WSDOT's Highways and Local Programs Division, says, "our funding hasn't been reduced, but we're not able to address the safety needs with what we have at this point."
She explains that schools present proposed projects, which are granted funds for construction through the programs. But "demand for the program far exceeds our amount of funding," she says. "We have received nine times more in grant requests than we have in available funding."
Statistics show the need to give this problem more attention: annually, there are more than 400 fatal or seriously disabling crashes involving bikes or pedestrians.
Take Action
If you want to support any of this legislation, call your legislator in Olympia and voice your opinion. BAW's Janis says you should state your personal interest in a few short sentences as well as urge a positive vote.

text: What an album.With the exception of "Anyone's Daughter", which is amusing but not really a hard rock song, this album is flawless. Every thing works on this album, from the organ melodies of Jon Lord (which are never over-bearing), to the guitar acrobatics of Ritchie Blackmore, the musicianship on this album is exceptional; raw, yes, but still exceptional. You have got to give it to Ian Gillan for his performance here. His singing is quite charismatic, and the lyrics are often irreverent and hilarious. The whole band seems to have a really cocky attitude on this album, and that attitude is exemplified with Gillan's over-the-top vocals.All I can really say is… Goddamn the Mark 2 line up put out great music.Buy this album, or steal it if you have to.On a side note, the UK version of Fireball has the track "Demon's Eye" instead of "Strange Kinda Woman", which is included on the US and Japanese releases. This track is awesome, and worth having, so if you are planning on buying either domestic version of this CD, I would suggest also purchasing their best-of, "Deepest Purple", for that track. Or you could always get the 25th anniversary edition….

This was my first electric project. It's a maple top, ebony fingerboard, Sperzel tuners, Bartollini pickups and though it looks fretted, it's not. They are marker lines (I basically fretted the instrument then ground the frets down the their tang. It turned out very nicely.
The bass sounded great and I have since wished I had not sold it on ebay. Oh the things we do when we are young.
I should make another bass. I mean why not?

Jurors have found George Zimmerman not guilty of second-degree murder in the fatal shooting of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin.
The six-member, all-woman jury deliberated for more than 15 hours over two days before reaching their decision Saturday night.
About two dozen people gathered outside the courthouse awaiting a verdict Saturday, with supporters of the Martin family outnumbering those there for Zimmerman.
Zimmerman claims he shot Martin in self-defense last year.
On Friday, as the jury began their discussions, police and civic leaders in this Orlando suburb went on national television to plead for calm in Sanford and across the country, no matter what the verdict.
Stay tuned to Eyewitness News at 11:00 pm for a wrap-up of the trial.

'Art Meets Fashion' to present cutting-edge collaborations
By Lonnie Burstein Hewitt
The big buzz in the arts world this season is the C-word: Collaboration. Propelled by a nervous economy, organizations are joining together to present events they never could manage alone, and the resulting mix of energies and talents has turned a tough situation into a gift to us all.
Art Meets Fashion is one of the splashiest of these collaborations, with events scheduled from now to September, including a VIP fashion show at the international airport, exhibitions at venues in North Park and downtown, and a catwalk launch at NTC Promenade, where the public will have a chance to strut its own stuff. The entire schedule can be perused online at www.artmeetsfashion.org.
The Idea: To set up teams of artists and designers, have them come up with a theme for a project, and see what magic they can create together. Each team includes a visual artist, a fashion designer, a photographer or videographer to document the process, and a teacher to create a lesson plan from it.
The Objective: To initiate productive collaborations, spotlight the wealth of talent in San Diego, and inspire young people to get involved in the arts.
According to Patricia Frischer, co-founder of AMF and coordinator of San Diego Visual Arts Network (SDVAN), a comprehensive guide to visual artists and art events, "We really want to share the sparks that fly when you put artists and designers and documentarians and teachers together. We also want to encourage local artists to believe they can have successful careers right here in San Diego, without having to leave for Los Angeles or New York."
How did AMF get its start? "The airport has a terrific arts program, and Constance White, the program manager, is tremendously stylish," said Frischer. "Several years ago, when we met, I commented on her clothes, and she said, 'If you ever want to do something at the airport, let me know.' "
Frischer is no stranger to ambitious arts projects. In the summer of 2009, she staged an event called "Little & Large," which invited local sculptors to make jewelry and jewelers to make sculpture, and involved displays at 43 galleries plus a meet-the-art-stars launch at downtown's Hotel Sé, with a catwalk over the swimming pool.
"The response was wonderful!" Frischer said. "And that made us think: There's really a need for this!"
At the launch, Frischer met fashionista Felena Hanson, head of FOCUS (Fashion Opportunities Connect Us), a networking group for emerging professional designers. Hanson said she'd always wanted to do a project with a catwalk, she loved bringing people together, and she already had the domain name "Art Meets Fashion."
So the first AMF team was born. From their initial public meeting in February 2010, when over 100 interested participants showed up, Frischer and Hanson knew they were on the right track. Now, after many months of planning, their numbers are impressive: 44 team members, 15 host venues, and more than 50 volunteers.
"It's a great opportunity for everyone," Hanson said. "Most artists and designers work in solitude. We're giving them a chance to cross-pollinate and brainstorm and inspire each other. We're providing exposure to new audiences, and documentation that will allow us to peek behind the scenes of the creative process. And with the educators, we're creating opportunities for the next generation."
If AMF's online catalog is any indication, this is one grand collaboration you won't want to miss. Whether you're an artist or a fashionista at heart, come check out the local talent and party with the art-and-fashion stars.

LANSINGBURGH, N.Y. -- The U.S. Postal Service will begin consolidating and closing dozens of mail processing plants as early as this week. A last minute effort by the American Postal Workers Union to stop the plan, failed on Friday.
There are 48 plants across the country that will be impacted by the consolidation over the next two months. The Lansingburgh Post Office in Troy was set to close, but will instead have reduced hours to maximize efficiency. The agency also said it's reducing the size of its workforce, offering buyouts and retirement packages to 21,000 postmasters, well as 45,000 mail handlers. A postal service spokesman said the agency lost more than $5 billion last year.

Nearly 5,000 breast cancer deaths a year may be attributable to just light drinking (up to one drink a day).
Images thanks to zyphichore
Recently, the IARC, the International Agency for Research on Cancer, the official World Health Organization body that decides what is and what is not cancer-causing, concluded that alcoholic beverages--all alcoholic beverages are to be considered carcinogenic to humans.
Most recent research has focused on acetaldehyde, the first and most toxic alcohol metabolite, as a cancer-causing agent. Seems that bacteria in our mouths oxidize alcohol into this carcinogen called acetaldehyde, which we then swallow.
There's convincing evidence that alcohol consumption increases the risk of breast cancer, but most of the data derive from studies that focused on the effect of moderate or high alcohol intakes, while little was known about light alcohol drinking (up to 1 drink/day), hence this new meta-analysis of studies that compared light drinkers to non-drinkers, and found a moderate but significant association with breast cancer, based on the results of more than 100 studies.
They estimate that about 5,000 breast cancer deaths a year are attributable to light drinking, meaning nearly 5,000 women that died of breast cancer maybe wouldn't have if they had stayed away from alcohol completely, leading to an editorial in the medical journal Breast that concluded "women who consume alcohol chronically have an increased risk for breast cancer that is dose dependent but without threshold," meaning there's apparently no level of alcohol consumption that doesn't raise breast cancer risk at least a little. So, no safe threshold. Any level of alcohol consumption appears to increase the risk of developing an alcohol related cancer.
For example, the Harvard Nurses' Study found that even consumption of less than a single drink per day may be associated with a modest increase in risk. Forget a single drink what about a single sip. A new study found that even holding a teaspoon of hard liquor in your mouth for 5 seconds—and then spitting it out results in Carcinogenic concentrations of acetaldehyde produced from the alcohol in the oral cavity instantly after a small sip of strong alcoholic beverage, and the exposure continues for at least 10 min after spitting it out.
Even alcohol-containing mouthwash can give you a carcinogenic spike. The researchers conclude, " All in all, there is a rather low margin of safety in the use of alcohol-containing mouthwash. Typical use will reach the concentration range above which adverse effects are to be expected. Until the establishment of a more solid scientific basis for a threshold level of acetaldehyde in saliva, prudent public health policy would recommend generally refraining from using alcohol in such products.
So why isn't the same recommendation made for alcoholic beverages? Well, as the Harvard paper concludes "individuals will need to weigh the risks of light to moderate alcohol use on breast cancer development against the benefits for heart disease prevention to make the best personal choice regarding alcohol consumption. They're talking about the famous J shaped curve. While smoking is bad and more smoking is worse, and exercising is good and more exercise is better, for alcohol there appears to be this beneficial effect of small doses. A six-pack a day raises overall mortality, but so does teetotalling.
The #1 killer of women isn't breast cancer, it's heart disease, and a drink a day reduces the risk of heart disease. Why just reduce the risk of heart disease, though, when you may nearly eliminate the risk of heart disease with a healthy diet? So a plant-based diet that excludes certain plant-based beverages may be the best for overall longevity.

Previously I've addressed the pros and cons in Alcohol Risks vs. Benefits. The other mouthwash video I referred to is Don't Use Antiseptic Mouthwash, part of a video series on improving athletic performance with nitrate-containing vegetables (if interested, start here: Doping With Beet Juice).
As you can see in my volume 13 DVD listing, I've got another video coming up in a few weeks, Breast Cancer Risk: Red Wine vs. White Wine. Make sure you're subscribed (for free!) so you don't miss it.
How else might one reduce breast cancer risk? See, for example:

Hand crafted in the old world style. Using only the finest hops roasted over layers of smoked peat. Aged in wood casks. Wait, wrong hand craft. Though like single malt, Waldmeister bikes are hand made in a methodical process, layer by layer:
The wood core of the frame is made of beech, a domestically grown,
renewable material acting as a C02 sink by removing more than 3,500
litres of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. The plywood layers of the
frame up to 100 of them are carefully put together by hand in a
process that takes much more time than automatic production but is also
more energy efficient. The glue holding together the layers of plywood
is water-based and ecologically harmless.
Word. Like an Eames plywood chair, but with wheels. And for a mere $13,000 they throw in some nice components from Xentis, Truvativ, Brooks, among others.

Atlantic City wants the word out... The Atlantic City Boardwalk is still here and intact.
The Atlantic City Alliance has taken out a full page ad in the New York Times which will run Wednesday, assuring visitors that the famous boardwalk was not destroyed by Hurricane Sandy.
"What we want people to know is that the boardwalk that they know, that they love, here in Atlantic City is alive, its well, its intact and ready and open for business," said Jeff Guaracino, chief strategy officer of the Atlantic City Alliance.
The ACA says the resort town continues to see a lag in visitation and revenue due to the historic weather event.

Kure Beach Approves Sponsorship Fundraiser For Oceanfront Park
- Details
- Published on Friday, 29 June 2012 10:33
- Written by Super User
By WILLARD KILLOUGH III
Managing Editor
KURE BEACH - The Kure Beach Town Council discussed ways to raise revenue at their June 19, meeting to help cover funding for their new Oceanfront Park downtown on Atlantic Avenue. The Town still has to fund approximately $1 million dollars of the original $3.6 million purchase for the land. The rest has been funded through grants. Town Clerk Nancy Avery said the idea of sponsorship opportunities has been discussed before but due to delays with construction of the park and completion of renovations to the existing boardwalk area, those discussions were put on the back burner.
Avery explained since the boardwalk area is nearing completion, the Council could consider starting in that area by offering citizens and businesses the opportunity to pay for a permanent sign showing they donated funds for the project.
Avery explained, "The idea I'm bringing to you tonight is a fish" made out of a long lasting material called Corian, "That is actually embedded into the plank. It's routed out in the shape of a fish" containing three rows of text such as "In honor of or in memory of" or other phrases indicating the donors. The text is sand blasted into the material.
Avery said a similar campaign in the Otter Banks was very successful for the state-owned Jeanette's Pier. She said, "They sold 2,115 of these fish at $200 each."
Avery said she's spoken with the person who made the fish for that project.
She said orders would be fulfilled in lots of 25 or 50 at a time and there are 1,200 planks on the Kure Beach boardwalk.
The fish are embedded in epoxy resin to withstand the elements and the only issue discovered with the other project was some fading. She said that issue will be resolved using darker colors. She said there are no definite figures on how long they will last.
Avery said Jeanette's Pier also sold spots on benches. The new park calls for four benches along the wooden boardwalk. She said, "Maybe $1,800 for the benches and $2,000 for the swings."
One bench cost approximately $400 to the Town.
Council member Emilie Swearingen asked, "Why are we selling them for $1,800 when it's costing us $400?"
Avery said, "To raise money."
Swearingen said, "I can't imagine anybody paying almost $2,000.
Avery said, "Actually I've got people interested in the bench and about six people interested in the fish... but it's up to Council to set the price."
Swearingen recommended double-sided fish plaques on the benches splitting the price between two people.
Avery said right now benches are only located on the boardwalk in front of the park site.
She said similar options could be offered once the park itself is completed.
Councilman Steve Pagley made a motion to accept the recommendation. The Council voted unanimously.
Avery explained Tuesday, "We will be working with Ruth Arnold Graphics and Signs... Each fish will be $220."
She said, "We will also offer sponsorship of the four swings on the boardwalk at $2,000 each and ten benches on the boardwalk at $1,800 each.
The swings and benches will have the same engraved fish design in a different color. We estimate netting $179,000 from this if all 1,200 planks have a fish."
Avery said the Town currently owes approximately one million dollars for the acquisition of the land for the park and around $347,000 for development of the park. She explained, "I hope this will be the first
phase of fundraising. If successful we'll do something similar in the park site with the swings and benches and maybe engraved pavers or a plaque - not sure yet."
To inquire about the sponsorship opportunity, call Town Hall at 910-458-8216.

Condemning Cain, Schultz Suffers Bad Case Of Bimbo-Eruptions Amnesia
Sad to see Ed Schultz suffer such sudden memory loss on live national TV. On his MSNBC show this evening, discussing Herman Cain's handling of the various allegations against him, Schultz: found it odd that Cain's wife had come to his defense; said he'd never "seen anything like this in American politics;" and claimed that by criticizing his accusers, Cain had hit "a new low in American politics."
Do any of the following sound an echo with Ed?:
- Hillary going on 60 Minutes to stand by Bill as he lied through his teeth about Gennifer Flowers?
- The Clinton campaign organizing an entire "bimbo eruptions" operation to suppress and attack women?
- James Carville slurring Paula Jones, saying you'll never know what you'll find "when you drag a hundred-dollar bill through a trailer park." Video after the jump.
Watch Schultz's selective memory at work.
ED SCHULTZ: Keep in mind the candidate [Cain] has already admitted his wife did not know about his so-called friendship with Ginger White. So you have to wonder why his campaign launched a new website today called "Women For Herman Cain." His wife Gloria, oddly enough, is the chairwoman of the website
. . .
Have we seen anything like this in American politics? Mr. Cain, I'll tell you: you're great for cable, and people are paying attention to it, but you're terrible for the political process in this country. You've embarrassed a lot of people.
Goldie [Taylor, of the Grio, MSNBC's African-American oriented web site], what do you make of this web site that has been put up by the Cain campaign, that is encouraging women supporters to come out and go after and basically trash the accusers? I have never seen anything like this in American politics. This is a new low in my opinion. What are your thoughts on it?
GOLDIE TAYLOR: Well, it is a new low.

Probably on a beer joint floor up in Fargo after someone knocked your lights out after you made some crude remark to a lady.

You forgot Hillary going on the Today Show ...
Submitted by HelloDare on Sat, 12/03/2011 - 3:28am.
You forgot Hillary going on the Today Show -- in the middle of the Lewinsky scandal -- and blaming the Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy for Bill's "problems". She knew what the truth was at the time.
If the press had called her on her bogus use of the Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy, you can bet the left would never have used the term again. But the press let her get away with it again and again. Here's how it all started:
Hillary Clinton on NBC's The Today Show, January 27, 1998.
Matt Lauer: "You have said, I understand, to some close friends, that this is the last great battle, and that one side or the other is going down here."
Hillary Clinton: "Well, I don't know if I've been that dramatic. That would sound like a good line from a movie. But I do believe that this is a battle. I mean, look at the very people who are involved in this ŌĆö they have popped up in other settings. This is ŌĆö the great story here for anybody willing to find it and write about it and explain it is this vast right-wing conspiracy that has been conspiring against my husband since the day he announced for president."

Ed the Red...
Submitted by adamsmith on Sat, 12/03/2011 - 6:28am.
Eddie is a very sick boy. His enthusiasm when "reporting" anything that rips the other side is the sign of a sick mind. He's an Obamalinsky cheerleader, period. I sure hope he doesn't put a gun to his head when Holder gets exiled and Commander Zero doesn't get a second term. That would be a real loss in the world of journOlism. He needs a diagnosis and medication before he hurts himself. Would hate to see him hurt himself or have a stroke on-air, it would really bother me to see that. He's such a journOlistic talent, along with the likes of Token Al Sharpton, Lawrence "Proud to be a Socialist" O'Donnell and Martin Bashir. There's a TV ad for the New York Times where they state, "Everyone knows the Times has the best journOlists in the business, there's no doubt about that". That is false advertising. Everyone knows all the MSLSDers I just mentioned above are really the best in the business. No one knows Non-Partisan reporting like MSNBC...

I suppose if anyone would understand being an embarrassment, it would no doubt be that wife-beating, dog killing fat alcoholic lovingly known as "Special Ed" Schultz.
I still catch his red-faced rants from time to time, in the hopes of seeing his head explode like those guys in the movie "Scanners". But it's hard to take more than two minutes, especially once the spittle begins to fly from his festering blow-hole.

This may be a very common event after all: another optical flash has been observed on Jupiter, again from an observer far east of the Greenwich meridian, though it was not Anthony Wesley (for once). This time it was Japanese amateur astronomer Masayuki Tachikawa who was pointing a video camera-equipped telescope at Jupiter and who was fortunate to capture an optical flash as it happened, blogs Emily Lakdawalla for The Planetary Society. More from SpaceWeather. The sighting by Tachikawa has now been confirmed.

Lawsuits against the NYPD could cost the city more than $1 billion annually if a bill against the department's stop-and-frisk policy continues to sail through the City Council, according to one lawmaker.
"This is the most dangerous and irresponsible bill ever to be considered by the City Council," said Councilman Peter Vallone Jr., chair of the Public Safety Committee. "It would bankrupt the city."

Strasburg News: Yeah, I know, we're out of it, but he hasn't left our hearts. The Ross Report has this video.
Mr. No Hit Tease takes the bump for the Friar against Bartholemew Jones or something like that, who drags a 15-something ERA to the mound.
Twice in 2006, Young flirted with a no-hitter against Pittsburgh.
Three starts ago, Young worked the longest perfect game in Padres history, going 7 2/3 innings in Milwaukee before Gabe Kapler homered.
Also, notable Bucs vs. CY, lifetime:
Ryan Doumit: .000 (0-for-8, 2 SO)
Adam LaRoche: .083 (1-for-12, HR, BB, 4 SO)
Freddy Sanchez: .000 (0-for-11, 2 SO)
They put up a graphic on the telecast last night that said the Pirates went from a .492/1 win pct. when they had Nady or Bay, to something like .291 since August 1. Ouch, to say the least.
Last night game of the season, first pitch is 7:05PM PT. No hitter or no winner!

Fake branding and insignia for infamous movie characters and films has taken over the indie T-shirt market as of late, and we may have found the best of the best when it comes to bringing nerd flicks to life in the most simplistic and cool way possible.
Based out of the UK, Last Exit to Nowhere is owned and operated by a collective of film geeks and T-shirt freaks with an eye for design, which shows in their merch. Some of their best creations include a Ghostbusters-inspired tee, a shirt for the record store from The Blues Brothers, and an Abe Froman-inspired design from Ferris Bueller's Day Off, among others. Chances are, if you're looking for unique schwag inspired by a classic movie favorite of yours, you'll find it.
Last Exit was kind enough to offer you guys some freebies inspired by Back to the Future: the Dr. E. Brown Enterprises design and the Hill Valley High school pride tee. And Playmate Kimberly Phillips and Playboy Radio host Jessica Danielle Hall–stars of Playboy's Back to the Future tribute (slightly NSFW)–were even kind-er enough to model them for you in the hot gallery below.
We have at least 20 shirts in all to give away, 10 of each design (shown above). You want free stuff? You have to work for it a little bit:
In the comments below, tell us what other products, places, people or things in the Back to the Future trilogy need their own unique tee designs and why.
The best 20 responses get a T-shirt. Sorry, we can't honor requests for which design you want. We'll pick at random who gets what.
Giveaway closes Wed., November 3.
Sorry, U.S. contestants only.
We can't promise you'll look as good in the tees as they do, but at least you'll get a free T-shirt, right?

DENTON -- How do you say goodbye to someone whose life has only just begun?
"There is not a life here ShyAnn did not touch," said Stan Durham, who spoke at the funeral Friday for 16-year-old ShyAnn Hooper.
There was hardly a seat left in the First Baptist Church in Denton Friday. Flowers adorned Hooper's casket.
She was killed Monday night in a car accident on an icy FM 156. Her family said she was driving home from track practice at Northwest High School in Justin.
ShyAnn was also a star on the basketball team. Her coach and her teammamtes stood before mourners and retired her No. 24 jersey.
"The Lady Texan basketball program lost an incredible lady," said coach Rusty Johnson, but added he knows she'll be at every game watching over them.
You could hear people crying softly in the pews as we heard about a young woman who loved her pet pig, had a mischievous streak to her, and would give anything to help others out.
Her uncle, Grant Bowles, said her father was looking forward to walking her down the aisle one day.
"I know ShyAnn is in a better place, but it still hurts," he said.
More than 200 gathered for a vigil for ShyAnn Wednesday night.
ShyAnn's friend, Brianna Christensen, was also injured in the accident but survived. The driver of the other vehicle has not been charged yet in the incident.

I took several courses with him at GSPP (the best Rorschach professor you can find). He was my mentor there. Then I transferred to another school and succeeded to convince that faculty to allow him to still be the chair for my dissertation. Dr. Dsurney has certainly been the most influential figure in my professional development.
Actually, I was a student at GSPP and I thought that Dsurney was a great teacher. He was funny and down to earth. Sure, at times he was a bit disorganized, but hey, when you can barely see, it can cause a problem. All I can say is this - when he had office hours (or other times), there were always students at his door - he was accessible.
I had this guy for several classes at GSPP. None were worth my money/time/effort. He 'lost' several take home tests, accused the entire class of unethical behavior, and frequently used threats of academic dismissal if you dared challenge him in class or in clinical discussions. Not a good professor or a good clinician

Bolton Abbey Easter egg hunt better than ever
10:00pm Thursday 17th April 2014 in News
Bolton Abbey's annual Easter Egg Hunt is set to be bigger and better than ever.
The Easter Bunny is busy preparing the trail, which starts outside the Cavendish Pavilion and follows the riverside footpath through Strid Wood.
New for this year are some extra-large eggs, standing at one metre high, which have been hidden among the trees for children and families to find and count.
The challenge is to crack the Easter Bunny's code and find the golden egg.
On completing the trail, children can meet the Easter Bunny, who will be in her rabbit hutch outside the pavilion and will be giving away free chocolate eggs.
The trail will be open from Good Friday to Easter Monday, between 10am and 4pm, and families can collect a trail form from the car park kiosk.
Normal admission charges apply.

Clarksville police are searching for two women wanted for shoplifting baby formula from at least one area retailer.
According to investigators, Shanta Griffin, 35, and Vanessa Beaty, 40, were caught on surveillance video shoplifting $372 worth of baby formula from a Madison Street grocery store.
Jim Knoll, Public Information Officer for Clarksville police, told Nashville's News 2 the theft is part of a national trend that is making it's way to Middle Tennessee.
"You've got people that are stealing cans of baby formula that probably run from between $25 and $35 and then getting it fenced out somewhere," Knoll explained, "Someone's buying it, who is selling it to someone else, who in turn has a market for it and sells it."
Jessica, a mother of two girls under two years of age, didn't want Nashville's News 2 to use her last name.
She said she wouldn't buy formula from anywhere other than a reputable retailer.
"You don't know if it's expired or not. I'd rather buy mine at the store so I know where it came from," she said.
Griffin and Beatty are also "persons of interest" in thefts from other stores.
Griffin is wanted on forgery, felony and misdemeanor theft and identity theft charges.
Beaty is wanted for misdemeanor theft. Anyone with information on their whereabouts is urged to call the Clarksville Police Department's tips line at 931-645-8477.

The final scrimmage is in the books for the Roanoke Valley Women's Soccer league and it was yet again, WAY fun!
Rosters have to be finalized and turned in by the 1st of September so if you have any interest - sign up! You soooo don't have to be a skilled player. There are plenty of newbies on the field and plenty of people who have played before - it's a great mix.
This is a pic of just some of the fine women who burned serious calories this past Sunday on the field.
I've played soccer on plenty of teams growing up ... travel teams, high school and our travelling club team for a couple of years in college. Since then, I've played on rec teams in every city I've moved to for this job. And I can't say it enough (as you've heard once or twice already:) I am so happy to finally add Roanoke to the list!

About Tronical
Stay tuned with TronicalTune from Tronical
Spend less time with Tronical tuning and more time playing. Play with TronicalTune's possibilities and tune in to your creativity.
Turn on – Strum strings – Rock 'n' Roll!
The Idea
The idea for Gibson's revolutionary Robot Guitar auto-tuning system came to Chris Adams in a fit of frustration. Aggravated that he couldn't keep his guitar in tune and that he was spending so much time trying to, the twenty-something turned to the Internet to see if there were any automatic tuning systems on the market. Dissatisfied with what he found, he imagined a system that would automatically tune a guitar in no-time-flat. That got him thinking about other possibilities; a system that could switch effortlessly between multiple tunings, keep a guitar perfectly intonated, and even change strings for you.
The fact that Adams had little engineering experience didn't deter him. Over a period of 10 years, the professional guitar tech perfected a lightweight and foolproof system that tunes a guitar precisely and automatically in only a few seconds. "I wanted to create something that would respect the tonal concept of the instrument without changing it, but there was so much new technology that had to be developed to make it what it is today," Adams explains. In 2005, Adams opened his Hamburg, Germany-based company Tronical, and began getting the word out about his invention.
It didn't take long. Uli Jon Roth, Steve Vai, Billy Corgan, and other notables already use the system and all sing its praises on stages worldwide. "I haven't met anybody who doesn't love it," Adams says. "This is a dream for guitar players. They don't have to think about tuning anymore. Many artists have told me that having this makes them so relaxed because they know that, no matter what, they will be in tune. If you are more relaxed, you have a better performance. You can be more creative."
Interview with Chris Adams
It took Chris Adams 10 years to perfect the lightweight and foolproof auto-tuning system on the revolutionary Gibson Robot Guitar. Aggravated by the never-ending tuning process, he devised a system that would automatically tune a guitar in no time flat. While he was at it, Adams developed the robotic technology that allows the Robot Guitar to switch effortlessly between multiple tunings, keep a guitar perfectly intonated, and even change strings.
What were your feelings about partnering with Gibson?
It's a dream come true. I'm proud of it because Gibson is the Mercedes of guitars. It's not just any brand; it's the most high-profile guitar manufacturer in the world, so it says something about the tuning system. It's a high-quality innovative product. That's why it fits so well with Gibson because Gibson's always cutting edge and a leader in technology.
What kind of guitarist do you think the Robot Guitar will appeal to?
It appeals to every type of guitar player. The total beginner can use it. It's so much more fun to have a guitar that is in tune from the start. The pro players are also very intrigued about the system because they can do so many things that they couldn't do before. A guitar tech can tune their guitar at the side of the stage, but the show happens on stage and a good guitar is very sensitive to changing conditions, concerning the climate and temperature. So no matter how good it was in tune on the side of the stage, it's not going to be in perfect tune on stage. This system gives the control back to pro guitar players. You have to think about so many things already when you're a guitar player that being in tune is one less huge hassle to think about.
Which famous musicians are already using your system?
Billy Corgan from the Smashing Pumpkins, he loves it. Matt Bellamy from Muse put it in his guitars. Uli Jon Roth, former guitar player of the Scorpions, says he actually can't live without it anymore. Steve Vai couldn't believe it unless he saw it, and once he saw it it was still very hard for him to believe. He's telling everybody about how great it is. Steve Lukather really loves it. I showed it to Pete Townshend, and he wants to get to know more about it. That's just the start of it.
How long does it take the average guitarist to feel comfortable with the Robot Guitar?
It takes less than two minutes to understand how to be in tune. Start with the basic stuff first. The only thing you have to do to start is pull the knob, strum the strings, and when everything on the display is blue, you are done. We checked the guitar out with some nine-year-old kids, and they picked it up immediately. It doesn't come easier than this—pull the knob, strum, push in, done.
How often do you have to turn the system on when you're playing?
Once you get this system, your tolerance for a guitar that's out of tune is lower. You get used to it very fast. After two weeks you hear so much more because you always have a guitar that is in tune. So you tend to turn the system on much more often because you have become much more aware of when you're out of tune. Who wants to be out of tune? Nobody. Now that it's no work, you tend to use this much more often. Once you get used to the system, it becomes second nature.
The company
Tronical is the market leader as well as technological pioneer in the range of self-tuning systems for musical instruments. Our business culture is affected by consistant exceeding of limitations to achieve excellent solutions for our products. All necessary core competencies and devices are provided at one spot.

The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) Season 12, featuring welterweight coaches (and division rivals) Josh Koscheck and Georges St. Pierre, is back for Episode 3 with Team GSP out to an early 1-0 lead.
Fresh off his elimination win last week, Alex Caceres celebrates with a giant stogie and a round of shots. He also takes center stage after obtaining a pretty good buzz and starts bragging about his win until his house mates can't stand the sound of his voice.
Team GSP hits the training center and as expected it's very loosey-goosey. "Rush" brings in Gia Sissaouri, a world class wrestling champion to help school the new recruits in the art of mat work.
Later in the day, Team Koscheck gets their turn in the gym and they look like the gang that couldn't shoot straight. Guys are taking rest breaks, bathroom breaks, basically any break they can think of to get out of training.
"Kos" lays into his students to let them know that dogging it won't win you the show. They suck it up and give 110% to close out the session.
Time for the fight picks and Team GSP has control. They choose Michael Johnson to face Aaron Wilkinson. St. Pierre may be looking for the path of least resistance as the general consensus is that Johnson is the heavy favorite.
Just not to Wilkinson.
Johnson gives us some background on his path to The Ultimate Fighter. Season 12 is the culmination of several auditions over the past few years and he looks hungry. Can he maintain his composure and not dump his load on fight night?
GSP has faith in his top pick and thinks it will be a lopsided affair.
Out in the parking lot, Koscheck has his boys park their cars on both sides of GSP's rental, blocking the doors so he can't get in. Unfortunately Rush is not rattled and shimmies his way in through the passenger side.
Wilkinson is one of the Wolfslair boys, which means -- yep, he sounds like Britbing.
Kos refers to him as "English" and drills him on striking. Wilks wants to break the stereotype that Brits can't wrestle and shows off some of his moves against the cage. Kos nods in approval -- then promises to motorboat St. Pierre's ass.
Johnson and Wilkinson both weigh in without incident. Dana drops by to give a very ambiguous prediction and both camps make an argument for their fighter.
Coach GSP asks Dana to make a call to Mike Tyson and bring him in to give his team a pep talk. "Iron" Mike obliges and makes a surprise walk-on that naturally leaves the cast starstruck.
Rush makes a "Punch-Out" reference. War Nintendo!
Elimination fight #2: Michael Johnson (8-4) vs. Aaron Wilkinson (6-3)
Round 1: I check the clock and it's 10:35. This thing goes to the cards? Early feeling out process on the feet. A kick here, a punch there. They go to the cage and Johnson with a takedown. Wilkinson is up and they break away. Johnson has a kick caught but Wilkinson can't take him down. Center of the cage and a combo stumbles "English." He shakes it off and lands a low kick. Johnson answers with one of his own and secures a huge takedown. Wilkinson scrambles and eats a few in the clinch before changing levels and holding the legs. Wilkinson is patient and gets the takedown. Wilky is landing elbows and Team GSP is starting to panic. Johnson looks like a deer in the headlights. Wilkinson continues to drop elbows while not the most damaging, are scoring huge points. Round ends with English on top. 10-9 for the Brit on the unofficial Nostradumbass scorecard.
Round 2: That creepy guy from Team GSP's coaching staff looks like Crispin Glover as George McFly. Quick exchange of hands and Johnson stuns Wilkinson before pushing him to the fence. They break away and bear hug before Johnson lands a big takedown. Wilkinson gets back to his feet and tries for a takedown of his own. He gets it and goes right back to the elbow barrage. This time Johnson shows some urgency and is able to reverse and drop some bombs of his own. Wilkinson stands and they throw leather. St. Pierre with his Canadian Fonzie: "Ehhhh!" The pace slows as both guys tire. Dana yells something semi-inspirational. Wilkinson tries for a takedown but can't get it. He shoots again to no avail. Time expires and hands are flying. 10-9 Johnson.
Round 3: Johnson comes out firing and Wilkinson crumbles against the fence. Johnson goes batshit with his hands forcing English to give up his back. From there it's elementary.
Michael Johnson defeats Aaron Wilkinson via submission (rear naked choke)
After the fight, Dana thinks the presence of Mike Tyson helped Johnson dig deep for round three. Wilkinson apologizes to his team for letting the fight get away. Coach Koscheck is proud of his performance and doesn't dwell on the loss which keeps the team out of a funk.
Stay tuned next week as "Iron" Mike helps train Team GSP, Koscheck tries to rattle "Rush" by wearing speedos, Bruce Leroy runs his mouth into overdrive and of course, the next elimination fight.
See you next week!
