Auto News
AutoGuide News Blog
The AutoGuide News Blog is your source for breaking stories from the auto industry. Delivering news immediately, the AutoGuide Blog is constantly updated with the latest information, photos and video from manufacturers, auto shows, the aftermarket and professional racing.
The new Volkswagen Jetta Hybrid has achieved an EPA-estimated 48 mpg on the highway and 42 mpg in the city, making it the seventh vehicle in the German automaker's lineup that is capable of over 40 mpg on the highway.
The Volkswagen Beetle TDI is the only diesel offering in the compact coupe segment, and will hit dealerships with a base MSRP of $23, 295 before a $770 destination charge.
The 2013 Volkswagen Beetle TDI will be going on sale this summer and will make its official debut at the upcoming 2012 Chicago Auto Show. VW has fed us some information ahead of its debut, however, revealing that it'll be available in three trim levels and is expected to get 29-mpg city and 39-mpg highway.
The Beetle TDI will be powered by a 2.0L turbocharged diesel engine with 140-hp and 236 lb-ft of torque. The engine can be mated to either a six-speed manual transmission or Volkswagen's innovative, dual-clutch DSG six-speed automatic. For the inside, the TDI models feature an extra instrument pod with oil temperature and boost gauges along with a stopwatch.
The three models the Beetle TDI will be available in are TDI, TDI with Sunroof, and TDI with Sunroof, Sound and Navigation. The upgraded models are pretty self-explanatory, with the base model coming with 17-inch wheels standard while the Sunroof model also adds a Premium VIII audio system with a full-color touchscreen display. Lastly, the top-of-the-line model has an RNS 315 navigation system with a five-inch touchscreen display and Fender Premium audio system.
Pricing has not yet been announced.
GALLERY: 2013 Volkswagen Beetle TDI
See AutoGuide's complete 2012 Chicago Auto Show Preview Here
The 2013 Volkswagen Beetle TDI is set to make its debut at the upcoming Chicago Auto Show. Though there aren't any confirmed details yet on the diesel-powered Beetle, it's expected to feature a 2.0L turbocharged, inline-four in its engine bay.
The same 2.0L can be found in the Volkswagen Golf, Jetta and Passat, with 140-hp and 236 lb-ft of torque with six-speed manual and DSG transmissions available. In the Passat, this powerplant has been good for up to 43-mpg on the highway, so it's safe to assume the Beetle will get the same, if not even a little better.
What is even more interesting is the speculation that VW might give its Beetle Convertible a diesel variant, making it the first clean diesel convertible in the United States. That's not confirmed yet though, but stay tuned to AutoGuide.com as we head towards the 2012 Chicago Auto Show to get all the details later on in early February.

Weather Vain: Jackson, Wyoming - 28 and Snowy
It's a good day to make your way up East Ridge Lift. Here, the sort of getup that does well with après-ski cocoa/cocktails. —erica
Clockwise from top left:
+ A Chinti and Parker flannel shirt as cozy as the breakfast at The Bunnery.
+ Winifred Grace's Pegasus cuff—useful for spotting constellations in the night sky.
+ A Hache shearling coat that plays well with the warm woods at Snake River Grill.
+ The sort of Rag & Bone denim vest that feels classically Western—and cool no matter where you are.
+ A Eugenia Kim turband—'cause it's COLD.
+ Sperry guys that will feel luxurious when you yank off your snow boots.
+ Etoile Isabel Marant cords as fun (and French?) as a day on Rendezvous Mountain.
+ A Tila March bag that's as carefully crafted as some Brown Derby booziness from The Rose.

Weather Vain: Milwaukee, Wisconsin - 77 and Partly Cloudy
There's something pretty exciting about summer on the Great Lakes—breezes and boat rides and all that jazz. And today in the biggest city in the cheesiest state (sorry, Vermont)? Well, it's downright lovely—especially if the sun shows up. Here's what to wear if you're there. —erica
Clockwise from top left:
+ A greenest-green tank from Otte—it fits like your most basic tee but feels a lot more special.
+ The so-good ring Silva/Bradshaw made for Of a Kind is as sleek as the Calatrava-designed art museum.
+ With its pops of color, this Lizzie Fortunato clutch is so fresh—pair it with a few apps at Sanford, and you're set.
+ Rebecca Minkoff glasses—blue like Lake Michigan on the clearest day.
+ Neutral stripes! What's not to like about this lil' Chinti and Parker number that you'll wear at least once a week?
+ Even if you're not a metallic-lover, the simplicity of these N.D.C. sandals really sells the gold tone.

Next Level: Drawstring Pants
The hotter it gets, the less you want to have some stiff waistband rubbing up against your skin. The solution: a drawstring situation with some give. And we're not talking a slimmed-down sweat pant you wear for a coffee run—I think we're meant to call those Saturday pants now?—but rather something you can wear to the office…or at least a drinks outing. Here are four pairs to tie on (loosely!) now. —erica
LEVEL I: Think of this Chinti and Parker pair as a jean stand-ins, and wear 'em with your most graphic footwear.
LEVEL II: Snakeskin's easy when it's in neutrals. Just top these Elizabeth and James guys with a white or black top, and you's set.
LEVEL III: Leave it to Rachel Roy to do a drawstring that can handle a board meeting. The creased, cropped cut—and rusty orange color—are chic to the nth.
LEVEL IV: Yes, this Clover Canyon pattern is a little wild, but look at it this way: Since there are so many hues in the mix, you no doubt already own something that would mesh perfectly.

Of a Kind
The cousins behind Chinti and Parker are all about transparency: The clothes they make aren't see-through or anything, but each peice comes with a tag that IDs its eco-friendly traits (organic, fair-trade, carbon-neutral, made in the E.U.). —erica

Oct 25, 2013
As a congressional panel probes problems with the federal health care website, Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius visited an insurance call center in Phoenix, saying experts are working around the clock to fix the site. That message was repeated Thursday by officials from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services during their first briefing on the repairs.
USA Today/The Arizona Republic: Sebelius Promises Fixes To Health Care Site
As a congressional panel probed her agency's oversight of the federal health care website, Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius said Thursday during a visit to Arizona that a team of government and private-sector technology experts are working around the clock to fix the problem-filled website. Following a tour of a Phoenix call center that handles enrollment and a community health center, Sebelius acknowledged that the website, Healthcare.gov, has not operated as seamlessly as she had hoped when it launched Oct. 1 (Alltucker, 10/25).
The Associated Press: Sebelius Visiting Phoenix Call Center Amid Ongoing Glitches In Health Care Enrollment
Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius is visiting Phoenix amid calls for her resignation after the clunky rollout of insurance exchanges under the new federal health care law. The former Kansas governor and the Obama administration's point person on the health law's implementation will tour an HHS call center on Thursday (10/24).
Politico: Kathleen Sebelius Hits Back At Critics
Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius took a swipe at those calling for her resignation over the troubled launch of the Obamacare enrollment site, saying she doesn't work for them. "The majority of people calling for me to resign, I would say, are people who I don't work for and do not want this program to work in the first place," Sebelius said Thursday during a press availability, according to the Associated Press (McCalmont, 10/25).
CNN: Sebelius Pushes Back, Determined To Make Obamacare Website 'Perfect'
Health Secretary Kathleen Sebelius is again pushing back against calls for her resignation over the rocky rollout of the Obamacare website, saying "we are determined to make it perfect." While visiting a health insurance call center in Phoenix on Thursday, Sebelius stuck to the Obama administration's line that the functionality of the online insurance marketplace Healthcare.gov is improving. "People are going through every day," she said. "It's better today than it was on October 1, but it's a long way from perfect and we are determined to have it be perfect. But what we are is three weeks into a 26-week open-enrollment period, in football terminology early in the first quarter" (Aigner-Treworgy, 10/24).
Politico: CMS Obamacare Briefing Day One: It's Getting Better
The Obama administration's tech "surge" to repair the Obamacare enrollment system may be more of a slow crawl — but a senior official said Thursday she's confident the system will be running smoothly for consumers by mid-December. The agency quarterbacking the repair process told reporters Thursday that any fixes to HealthCare.gov would be "incremental." Consumers may not even detect them (Cheney, 10/24).

Product Details :
Growing Information
How to Grow GrapesChoose an area in full sun with well-drained soil. Set grape plants 10' apart and slightly deeper than they grew in the nursery. Prune off damaged roots and spread the remainder, planting in a large hole with the roots 4-6 inches below the soil surface. Prune back to one cane and leave only 2-3 nodes on each cane. After shoot growth starts and the danger of spring frost is past, remove all but the 2 strongest shoots. Keep vines watered and weeded, and remove all flower clusters the first year. Allow enough time for the plant to get well-established. Stake the vines as needed, and set up supports such as trellises during summer or fall. Grapes bear fruit on one-year old wood: the shoot that will bear fruit emerges in spring from last year's cane.
Harvesting- Grapes
Once grapes are cut from the vine, they will not ripen any further. Berries change from green to red, purple or white depending on the variety. Most berries color up before flavor peaks. When fully ripe, the natural bloom or whitish coating on the berries should be more noticeable. The seeds turn from green to brown, and berries become slightly less firm to the touch.
Protect grapes from hungry birds by bagging individual clusters with sturdy, brown paper type bags tied securely to the cane, when clusters are about half developed. Leave enough air space in the bags for clusters to develop. Pick the grapes when they are ripe by cutting the entire bunch from the vine. Store the grapes in a container with soft lining to prevent bruising the fruits. Grapes are best eaten right away, but can be kept for a few weeks.

Once again whilst checking some shots from my Canon EOS 300D I noticed obvious sensor dust on the images so I decided it was time to clean the sensor.
My standard procedure is to take a reference shot before cleaning, I do this by manually focusing on infinity, selecting the smallest aperture in aperture priority mode then taking a shot of a blank white screen on my monitor. When I view the image in Photoshop I use Autolevels to highlight any dust contamination.
As I expected I saw lots of contamination, out of curiosity I then decided to use the Canon approved method of cleaning the sensor, using a Hurricane blower. Result ... considerably more contamination visible on the sensor! To be honest I was not too surprised at this as I've had a sneaking feeling that using the Hurricane blower just blows more dust from inside the camera onto the sensor. I then used a Digi-Pad and Eclipse cleaning fluid to clean the sensor, using the method recommended by Digi-Pad of using one Digi-Pad, sweeping across the sensor in one direction then, turning it over to sweep back in the other direction. This removed most of the dust but left a few visible specks so I repeated the process which got rid of most of the remaining specks but left a fibre like speck on the sensor. I then tried the Hurricane blower which removed the fibre but added a lot more visible contamination again!
As I was now deeply into "nerd mode" I thought I'd see if I could check stories I'd also read about that dust gets onto the sensor via the Card and battery compartments. I removed and replaced both the card and battery 10 times with no visible increase in contamination (not a rigorous or exhaustive test I know). Finally I used what is now my standard cleaning procedure using 2 Digi-Pads. One is used to sweep in one direction with a second new pad then used to sweep back in the opposite direction. This left the sensor at its cleanest. I have kept examples of the test shots from each stage but I didn't know if I could insert them into this post.
So my conclusions:
- Avoid using a blower, it potentially can add more dust than it removes!
- Dust appears to be more likely to get in through the lens mount or as a result of air movement when the mirror and shutter actuate than through the card or battery compartments.
- Use 2 Digi-pads to clean the sensor. If you use just one and then turn it over I think the static charge built up the pad and/or the air movement can attract dust back onto the sensor.
I'd be very interested to hear anyone else's thoughts.
If you clean the chamber as well, I'd expect the blower to be more effective! I always clean both (SensorBrush) - and only needed to a total of 3 times in a year (and I'm forever in some dusty spot, forever changing lenses!)
Think it would take time for dirt to work its slow way through from card/battery access

Born and raised in Brownsville, Brooklyn. The choices I made in the past gave me three felonies. Now 29, my thought pattern has changed drastically. I now resent the exact facade I lived by.
Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
I just don't understand how a person can believe in a higher power. How can a person feel blessed? How can a person have a relationship with an imaginary entity? How can people attribute their success to a "god"? You are blessed for your success, but a homeless person is blessed to be alive? I hear people say "god" is good… But for who? I have never felt anything, or heard anything. I never had a relationship… Oh, I'm supposed to pray? Tuh! To me, that's complete bullshit. I've read different sections of the bible and was disgusted by it. I felt that someone is robbing people of the truth. The bible doesn't seem like it's the truth. How can I even feel like that. If there were some "god", how could I feel like that. Simply because there is no "god". It really is that simple. Oh, what, you're gonna ask me how we got here? I don't know. That's the only thing you can ask me to slow me down. And the only reason I'm slowing down is because that really stumps me, but a higher power never even enters my conscious thought. I don't push it back, it never formulates. I am a very conscientious person. I do a bunch of thinking… my speech is particular, and my actions are controlled by scruples. But I never think nor feel spiritual.

can be cultivated satisfactorily. It is very important throughout most of the upper highlands, for example, where it accounts for about 60 percent of the population's total plant food. Farmers in that area rely on fast-maturing types to save their families from starving during food shortages.
This is just one example of the genetic wealth to be found among Ethiopia's barleys. Other traits include:
High yields. Some Ethiopian barleys have big and heavy kernels, some plants tiller (send up multiple shoots and seedheads) very well, and others mature quickly.
High nutrition. Some have high levels of protein and a few are high in lysine and are thus exceptionally nutritious. They are the only known source of quality-protein barley.12
Disease resistance. Several have resistance to diseases such as powdery mildew, leaf rust, net blotch, Septoria, scald, spot blotch, loose smut, barley yellow dwarf virus, and barley stripe mosaic virus.
Drought resistance. Many have the ability to grow under dry conditions—a feature apparently related to deep and efficient root types.
Tolerance to marginal soils.
Resistance to barley shoot fly and aphids.
Vigorous seedling establishment.
On the other hand, Ethiopia's barleys tend to blow down easily due to weak straw and tall, spindly growth. Some specimens suffer from the condition known as "fragile rachis," in which the seed spike breaks apart and spills the seeds on the ground.
The outside world's barley breeders have not neglected Ethiopia's materials. For example, they employ the accession called Jet (jetblack seeds) to obtain resistance to loose smut, a severe fungal disease. In the United States and several other countries they have employed the genes for resistance to the extremely damaging barley yellow dwarf virus, leading to great savings in grain yields. But many more useful types remain to be employed both at home and abroad.
Ethiopia also has a native oats, Avena abyssinica. Partially domesticated in the distant past, this species is largely nonshattering—that is, it retains most of its grain so farmers can harvest them conveniently.
See companion report, Quality-Protein Maize. Quality-protein barleys are rich in amino acids, such as lysine. that are vital to human nutrition and yet normally deficient in cereals. They have been called "Hi-proly" by the Danish food scientists who have studied them most. (For a list of BOSTID publications, see page 377.)

Seatylock Combined Bicycle Seat and Lock
People are always trying to find ways to combine a bicycle lock into something else, whether it be hidden in the seatpost, incorporated into the frame, or in the case of the Seatylock, into the rails of the saddle. Using a quick release bracket compatible with most seatpost heads, the $85 Seatylock saddle easily clicks on the off the bike (going back to the same position when replaced) and hides a 3 ft articulated lock underneath. While it eliminated having to wear or carry your lock in a bag, it's up for debate if the Seatylock is actually any less conspicuous on the bike than a more run of the mill lock bracket, though it does come with the added benefit of preventing saddle theft. The design is available in two different widths in a number of colors, though I can't be the only one that would like to see an add-your-own saddle version, particular as people can be about their saddle choices.

The Piano Pedaler
By Rachel Krause, photos by Grant Hindsley.
A Salt Lake City man's piano bike blurs the line between bikes and music.
"You don't see that everyday."
"That's one way to do it."
"Is that a… piano? On a bike?"
Eric Rich is used to hearing these responses when he plays his piano at the Downtown Salt Lake City Farmers' Market. Each week he transports his piano back home with him. On his bike.
In 2010, Eric Rich saw a friend's band perform at the farmers' market, and learned they racked in $800 in one day. "Maybe I can go and make money doing what I really love." He talked to his brother who was a welder, and in three days they built a bike with a piano trailer.
The first piano bike was built out of an old Weser Brothers piano he found through the classifieds, some wheelbarrow wheels, a fork, and a headset. Rich, who picked up the keyboard and piano about eight years ago to fill in for some recordings for some hardcore punk bands, loves that he is able to transport the piano through his own power, without a middleman or boss. He doesn't describe himself as an hardcore cyclist, but is a car-free bike commuter. "My favorite part about bikes is the idea of it—that you're the fuel to it," Rich says. "I also love the design aspect of it."
The bike he currently rides is not the original piano bike. After a rough winter when the bike fell into disrepair, Rich decided it was time to make a new piano bike. "Design-wise, it was important for me to make it integrated. The old one had too many pieces, this one would be one connected piece. That was my number one goal. I lost so much power with just rolling resistance. Building this new bike was about making it more efficient and making the gear ratio lower so I can take it more places."
Rich started a Kickstarter fund in 2013 to purchase a better quality Yamaha piano and raised more than $6000. After raising the money, he spent months scouring the internet for special parts. Much of it came from Amazon and Saturday Cycles in Salt Lake City, which specializes in randounneur and touring bikes. In the end he spent about $5000. And it was worth every penny. The original bike only had one back wheel, which made it fairly unstable. The new bike has two back wheels. The original bike had cantilever brakes in the front only. The new bike has a disc brake in the front and two disc brakes in the back.
The current piano weighs in at about 380 pounds and the entire bike is about 420 pounds. Rich plays all of his own compositions (although he added a Yann Tiersen song to his repertoire recently.) For the most part, he says people are widely positive about the bike, although he will encounter the aggravated motorist who thinks Rich is taking up too much room on the street.
He recently rode the piano bike up and down a canyon road, a feat he doesn't consider easy by any imagination. "I took it up a little canyon for a wedding, and when I rode down it was very very difficult. With the center of gravity so high and the road tilted, it could easily lose traction."
Rich plays weekly at the Downtown Farmers Market, as well as other festivals and conventions, including the Sundance Film Festival in Park City. The farthest he has taken it was to Columbia, Missouri, for the True/False Film Festival in the spring of 2013. He transported it in an enclosed trailer that was donated to him by his family's neighbor. One day he hopes to be able to make trips like that by the power of his own bike.
Rich has been designing a Piano Bike 3.0 that would be capable of cross country travel.
"I love designing things," he says. "For the bike, the biggest challenge is making it narrow enough but also wide enough so it doesn't tip over. The design challenge is very interesting. The physical challenge is also very interesting to me. I just want to see if it's possible."
Rich has been researching options and designing a new model. Piano Bike 3.0 would use a carbon fiber piano, which albeit very expensive, would weigh less than half what a traditional piano weighs.
For now, Rich will keep playing at the farmers' market until later this fall, and then has plans to start an ensemble and has purchased some new percussion equipment in hopes of playing with others soon. "The piano bike is really hard on my body, my back and wrists start to get very sore. I like to be able to switch it up."
In the long term, Rich hopes to get a sponsorship (carbon fiber pianos cost about $100,000) in order to make his dream become reality. "I want to address all the physical and design challenges of riding a piano bike across the country, but in the end, I want to share design and music with people that will hopefully inspire others to be creative."

Kickstarter – Orfos Lights
Orfos is running a Kickstarter to fund the production of their bike lights with 360 degree visibility, a unique feature for current lighting systems. They attach by, what look to be, incredibly strong magnets and rival car lights in brightness. The current funding tiers are essentially pre-orders for either a front or rear light with the option to buy both, however, at $119 each (rising to $140 after Kickstarter) I wonder what demographic will pay at this price point. Still, the 360 degree feature is an innovation most light manufacturers should consider.

The Holy Week of Cyclocross
Cyclocross for many of us is a religion, a devotion to mud, dust, rain and rutted corners is the reason we get out of a bed in the morning. We travel far and wide to practice our faith with growing numbers of others that have fully converted to the 'cross. Our church is anywhere that open space and plastic course tape meet to create a gauntlet of turf, stairs and wooden planks testing both skill and endurance to find the proper balance between suffering and speed. Our Mecca in North America is New England, and for a 10 day period known as Holy Week thousands travel from all around to participate in what has easily become the biggest series of races in the country.
The Holy Week of Cyclocross consists of seven races over the course of a week and a half. Beginning in Lancaster, MA with the Midnight Ride of Cyclocross and ending some 10 days later in Providence, RI. To fill the space in between the kickoff and finale is arguably the biggest race of the year in Gloucester, MA and possibly the most fun you can have at race while getting lapped by Barry Wicks in Shrewsbury, MA at the Night Weasel Cometh. Holy Week attracts the faithful from all over the globe to compete and congregate in what is a grand celebration of all things cyclocross. It's easy to be overwhelmed on your first visit to the Motherland by the shear number of competitors, by the size of the beer garden and what the perfect ale is to compliment your sweet potato taco, by the guy with "Good Will Hunting" accent trying to smash you through the tape on lap one and by the fact that you are taking a warm up lap behind Katie Freakhin Compton! But it is also all of those things that draws us to these events, the sights and sounds of 150 people on course at once is something you can only experience at the biggest of races, and at races like Gloucester and Providence you get to experience it over and over throughout the day. Holy Week is kind of like a cyclocross stage race, with so many racing days in close proximity to one another your body starts crave more food and more rest but when the whistle blows to start the next race it easily accepts the punishment it's about to endure.
Under the lights on muddy ski slopes or on the cool rocky shores of the Atlantic it's easy to lose yourself in the moment of the race, the pain that your legs and lungs are experiencing lessens as you enter tunnels of sound encouraging you to go "haahda dyude!" It's through these experiences that makes it easy for one to fully believe in cyclocross. So if you are one of the believers and you spend your summers smelling mastik one and praying to a shrine of Erik De Vlaemink you owe it to yourself and to the gods of cyclocross to make the pilgrimage to New England for Holy Week.

Driver Hits Cyclist, Sues for Damages
And in the news of the extremely arrogant and entitled, Gothamist reports a driver hit cyclist, John Roemer, this past May and is now taking him to small claims court for damages to her car. As you can see in the photo, apparently her car was completely destroyed and it only makes sense to sue, no? Mind you, this is after Roemer ended up in the ICU for days, and even though the driver's insurance admitted fault. But you know, SOMEONE has to pay for damages to her car and why would it ever be the negligent driver?
I Love Riding in the City – Marni Duffy and Dena Driscoll
NAME: Marni Duffy and Dena Driscoll
LOCATION: Philly
OCCUPATION: moms + Kidical Mass Organizers, Dena: non-profit, Marni: small business owner
Where do you live and what's it like riding in your city?
We live in Philadelphia. We bike daily with (and without) our kids for transportation. We find many things about Philadelphia's infrastructure very frustrating. There is one protected bike lane (or cycle track). It is 1/4 mile long and connects a casino to a busy intersection, with numerous driveways interrupting it where cars have the right-of-way. Our bike lanes are just dooring lanes, perfectly placed between parked cars and whizzing traffic. Our two main buffered bike lanes are just free parking spots for construction workers, property owners, church goers, and the Philadelphia Parking Authority (sometimes even the Philadelphia Police, though they prefer regular bike lanes).
Dena started 'Give Mom a Bike Lane' (@bikelaneMOM) so that we can let our snarkiness fly on why protected bike lanes are important if we want people ages 8-80 to ride their bikes for transportation and pleasure. Philadelphia is not prioritizing safe streets for pedestrians and cyclists and is continuing to prioritize parking and driving lanes.
We also organize monthly family bike rides, called Kidical Mass Philadelphia (kidicalmassphl.org). We want to help as many families get out on bikes as possible.
What was your favorite city to ride in, and why?
Dena: Philadelphia because I know it so well.
Marni: Midland, Michigan, where I lived from ages 1-6. My mom pulled my younger brother and I in a trailer all through town. It is how I got to school, the grocery store, the playground, and friends' houses. I loved the fresh air. My brother would nap and my mom would be so happy to be outdoors getting some exercise.
Why do you love riding in the city?
We love riding in the city because we think it's a great way to get around town. It's just fun! To breath the air, interact with people, talk to our children about what they see, hear, smell, and feel, and to push ourselves past what we thought we could handle. Getting our blood pumping is a great way to stay happy and healthy. We love being able to bike to the grocery store, the post office, preschool, work, the laundromat, the bike shop, museums and parks, meetings, the waterfront, and the library.

Curves 'N' Turns
CURVES 'N' TURNS – Trailer from CURVES 'N' TURNS on Vimeo.
Everything´s getting faster and faster nowadays. This project was an experiment to slow down living, or rather try to find a way of going slowly and to experience travelling to the fullest. By bike from the southern part of Austria to the mediterranean sea like Liguria and Sardegna was the first part of this adventure. Another very important goal was to catch up with local people, to immerse deeper into the local culture and to find waves in a country which isn´t that famous for surfing.
I'm a sucker for bike touring and surfing (though I don't even surf), so this movie looks rad. Coming Spring of 2015.
PDW Lars Rover Into The Night
Portland Design Works has upped their lighting ante with the Lars Rover this year. We caught a glimpse at them at Interbike, featuring an aluminum body and two models of 650 or 450 Lumens. The Lars Rover 650 runs for a full two hours on high mode, with a 15 minute bail-out mode when the battery reaches the end of the charge. Turn it down the the 175 lumen low power mode and get over 7 hours of commuting, with a five hour charge time via a USB port. It has a smart switch, a low batter gauge and a competitive price at $110 for the Lars Rover 650 model and $85 for the Lars Rover 450. For a limited time the 650 models come with an overly nice custom can cooler with leather PDW patch that you won't want to put down at a party.

Riding the Ronde
Anyone with even a passing knowledge of road racing heritage knows of the Ronde Van Vlaanderen (Tour of Flanders) and the epic Belgian farm roads and cobbles that make up the route. A couple of years back I had the unforgettable opportunity to ride throughout FLanders and on parts of the course — this video by Joe Baur helps bring it back.
245 kilometers? Cobbled climbs? No problem!
For reasons beyond my comprehension, BMC Switzerland graciously selected me to join five other cyclists from across the globe to join their granfondo experience, more tortuously known as the Ronde van Vlaanderen. Here I document my experience with a bit of Ronde history mixed in for flavor.
Indeed, cycling here does not suck. And someday, I hope to be back on the cobbles of Flanders.
PDX Trophy Cup Cyclocross Photo Gallery
From the genius of Clint Culpepper and Will Laubernds comes the PDX Trophy Cup, a weekly cyclocross race series that takes place at the world famous Portland International Raceway (PIR). Situated just minutes north of downtown Portland OR, PIR is an ideal venue for an early week training race and hangout.
PIR has hosted many cross races before, what sets the PDX Trophy Cup apart is that it takes place during that sweet spot between summer and fall, when the weather is unpredictable and you could get a beautiful sunset as the backdrop to your race or a torrential down pour and muddy, sloppy conditions to add to the already challenging course. Either way you're going to have fun. Adding to the uncertainty of the weather is that the races begin around dusk with racing continuing well after dark, testing not only your fitness but your sense of adventure. And the courses, these are masterfully crafted and thoughtfully put together by Clint, Will and a handful of dedicated volunteers who give up their Sunday afternoons so everything is ready for Tuesday night. Every week the courses are a little different, taking advantage of the physical features found at PIR. Off cambers are carved, tree lines are taped, barriers laid, sand hills shaped, and sometimes a bit of the adjacent motocross course is incorporated into the fun.
Besides the racing, one of the best things about this series is how people have embraced it. "It gives me something to look forward to on Tuesdays." said one sweaty participant. The people coming out to race are some of the most enthusiastic I've seen and heard in a long time. Most everyone that comes out to race stays until the end of the night to watch, have a beer, and do a little heckling. Did I mention beer? Not a bad way to spend a Tuesday evening. Summer is completely gone and this six race series has come to an end for this season. But a lot of Portland is already thinking about that next Tuesday night race in late Summer 2015.

Latvian Cycle Protest
From Design Boom: During this year's european week of sustainable mobility, a branch of latvian cyclists part of the "let's bike it" community staged a creative protest, which effectively — and cleverly — showed that cars with single occupants take up way too much space.
This is by no means a new tactic of transportation protest, but it's nice to see the spirit carried on, and hey, the frames might act as something of a crash proof carriage in case of collision. European Mobility Week is over, but you can get a recap of the proceedings here.

I Love Riding in the City – Joe Pierce
NAME: Joe Pierce
LOCATION: St Louis
OCCUPATION: Public Servant
Where do you live and what's it like riding in your city?
I live in St Louis near the Chain of Rocks Bridge, old Route 66. The bridge has been closed to cars and trucks since the 60′s. Bikes and foot traffic only.
I moved here from Chicago and was intimated at first but got over it. The city is working very had at their Bicycle Friendly status and I've ridden on the streets and commuted here since 98 and feel it's come a long way. The region has issues with cyclists that will be resolved someday.
What was your favorite city to ride in, and why?
I've ridden in Chicago, Cleveland, San Diego, Sturgeon Bay, St Louis, and Pittsburgh and I have to say Chicago is probably my favorite.
Why do you love riding in the city?
There is a lot less stress riding a bike. I love how you are part of your surroundings not separated by glass and metal to everything. I've seen much more of nature while ridding and I've found money on the road. That would not happen while driving a car.

India Learns Self-Sufficiency From Akash Missile Program
Development of the Akash tactical surface-to-air missile system, the first indigenous SAM to be inducted into the Indian military (for both the air force and army), has been a valuable learning process for Indian engineers, according to deputy project director G. Chandramouli. He told delegates at this week's "Challenges in Design and Development" seminar in Bangalore that it has involved solving many interlinked issues relating to various subsystems as well as ground systems, such as radars, launchers and control centers.
Akash is equipped with an integrated ramjet rocket propulsion system and has a 25-30-km strike range. It is supported by the Rajendra radar system, which can simultaneously track 64 targets.
"Fine tuning the designs and configurations of various elements requires appropriate technical and managerial decision-making skills," said Chandramouli. "Development of tracked vehicle-based radars, control centers and missile launchers takes considerable time compared to wheeled-vehicle-based designs."
The advantage, he explained, is that minimal modifications should need to be carried out on working configurations. "For mission mode projects, content of technology development may be kept at a minimum to avoid time over-runs and cost over-runs," Chandramouli added.

Diary of a Mad Cowboys Fan
I come from a huge family of Dallas natives who are all Cowboys fanatics, but I'd put money on it that if you asked any one of them who the biggest fan in the Horn family is, the majority of them would without hesitation say, "That would be Kelly Nell!" Ask anyone at my place of business and they wouldn't think for a moment before saying, "Miss Kelly, of course!"
I've got Cowboys posters and memorabilia in my bedroom, a closet full of jerseys plus enough Dallas tees to wear a different one every day for weeks, and even a "Cowboys" silver car… not to mention my favorite addiction, this Cowboys website.
In my household, football season means Sundays are booked – no parties, no outings, no shopping, no work. Dinner is planned around the game. From kickoff until the clock reads 0:00, no one better get in front of the tv and I'm not answering questions, taking random phone calls, no cleaning, cooking, laundry… well I'm sure you get the point.
My teenage son, as amazing as he is, says "Go Cowboys" but I'm not sure he means it the way I do. I've bought him jerseys, jackets, etc. – but he's just not that into football. I've been known to scream at the television and get a little bit vocal during Cowboys games. I'm pretty sure that's why he hides in his bedroom at kickoff. But hey, I love him just the same.
Over the last couple of years I've gotten to know some amazing people who also love the Cowboys. I know people who hold season tickets year after year and people who travel clear across the country just to witness a Cowboys game. Although some of the biggest and craziest Cowboys fans I know have never even been to a game, but love 'em just the same.
I have friends whose homes are completely decorated in Blue and Silver, from the shower curtain to the sofa. I have friends who blog about the 'Boys, and many who "vlog", some designs graphics, and others spend hours on forums. Some of my Rowdy friends drive vehicles with players painted on them, decorated with star logos, and personalized Cowboys-themed license plates.
I have Cowboy-tattooed friends, and even some who name their children after players and coaches (I think Landry would be a cool boy's name).
I think each of us has our own way to express our true blue enthusiasm. I'd rather not classify who is more of a fan, or less of a fan. I'm just happy to say I have been lucky enough to get to know some kickass people who I can relate to because of the Dallas Cowboys.
I feel honored to be able to share my love for this team with all of you through Lone Star Struck. I am so proud of the name we have built in the Cowboys online community and our amazing fan base that continues to grow daily.
From the average football fan to the obsessed die hard fanatic, you are important to the Cowboys organization, and the NFL for that matter.
Regardless of what kind of a fan you are, without all of us, and I mean every single one of us, there would be no team. Its the oldest principle in the book – supply and demand. We the fans demand some Cowboys football.
It may be offseason but being a Cowboys fan isn't seasonal, its a year round event. We are counting down the days until the draft, and looking forward to training camp. Some of us are already planning tailgate parties and road trips to visit Arlington or the closest football stadium that will be lucky enough to host the Dallas Cowboys.
Some rivals and opposing fans question why the Cowboys are America's Team? Well the answer is crystal clear, WE are the reason.
My fellow fans span from California to New York and Illinois to Florida, not to mention the great state of Texas and its neighboring states (a big hello to my fellow Oklahomans). From sea to shining sea, we are loud and we are proud, we are Cowboys fans and I have to say it's been a pleasure meeting all of you.
Note: We will be adding a fan gallery to the site this offseason and would love all of you to contribute your photos. Keep us in mind, and stay tuned for information on how to submit your Cowboys pictures.

Mexican Limes
- carln Aug 29, 2006 06:10 AM
Is it me or are the limes you get in Mexico COMPLETELY different in flavor to anything you can find in the US? Not only are they much more flavorful but they also have a different taste altogether. I live in CA and cant find a lime that tastes like a lime you find from the bottom of the baja pensisula, south? You would think that if its the weather that makes the difference they would at least import these things but i cant find them anywhere. If anyone knows where to find them or knows why they cant be found, please let me know.
The large lima (Mexican lime) is from a different plant than the diminutive limon (what we known as a lime in the States, probably the Persian lime). I imagine Mexican limes are available in LA at Mexican markets, but maybe you would get more specific responses on the LA board??
The small limes (1 1/4") that I get at my Mexican grocer are seedy, have a mottled skin and lots of juice that has a wonderful flavor.
The larger seedless limes (2") with a darker green skin, are "Bearrs' Seedless", I believe, grown stateside. They have a more bland, acidic taste, and don't yield as much juice.
Try searching your area of Calif for a hispanic grocery store. Check at different times of the year,too. These past few weeks none of our Mexican groceries have had the smaller, more juicy limes, just the big, dark green ones. It may just depend on the produce distributor they use.
The limes you get in Mexico (and in Hispanic markets in southern California) are called "limas" -- they are small, spherical and tart.
The limes that you get in, for example, Safeway, that look like green lemons are, in fact, called "limón" in Spanish, and yellow lemons can be "limón" or "citrón". In fact, you'll often hear people for whom English is the second language after Spanish refer to the large green thing as "a green lemon".
IMNSHO, limas are far superior in flavour to limones verdes.
AFAIK, Mexican limes are key limes. In fact, most of the "key" limes used in American come from Mexico -- if you've ever gone to Key West and wondered where the lime groves are, there aren't any. (Keep in mind, Mexican/key limes are SMALL and very tart -- if you're talking about bigger ones, at least as big as a lemon, these aren't it.)

text: Ephelyon, I agree that in both of these scenarios, good network security is critical - and I don't think any standard would say otherwise. But there may be areas - I suspect the Royal Society was thinking more of web filtering - where accepting some risks by taking a more permissive attitude might be justified, even if there was a risk of e.g. online bullying from a social networking site that was designed to support class discussion. So the point of a risk assessment, in my opinion, is to discriminate between those risks that should be minimized at all costs and those risks that are worth taking.

KG video: 'It's unpleasant'
|02.07.10 at 7:10 pm ET
Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett reacted to Sunday's 96-89 loss to the Orlando Magic.
"It's unpleasant," Garnett said. "We don't like that at all. Our goal is to establish home court and try to add that as an advantage and we really haven't done that consistently, at least against good teams."

In the last nine years, I have spent more than my share of time in doctors offices. Especially with my journey with endometriosis, my obgyns's office has become a second home. I know all of the staff and they all know me and my family. I always joke that I have earned "frequent flyer" miles and that my doctor would have to start wheeling my chart in with a wheelbarrow as its gotten quite thick.
At one of my last visits, the nurse took myself and my husband back to one of the rooms and after taking my temperature and blood pressure, she left the room and put my chart on the holder in the door. Within a few minutes, we heard a loud crash and an "oh, shoot" (verdict is out on whether not the word was "shoot" or some other version…lol). My chart seemed to have won the battle against the holder. Last time I noticed shiny new reinforced brackets were installed!
In my time spent in this particular office, I could offer a few pieces of redesign advice. To start with a positive, I love the calm, serene blue they chose for the paint in the waiting area and having a water cooler with cups available is great. Two thumbs up. However, the chairs are extremely uncomfortable. In all of my years, I have only visited one doctors office that actually had comfortable chairs in the waiting room (my rheumatologist's office has recliners!). The exam rooms could be a little more welcoming as well. Would a fluffy robe and memory foam exam table versus the thin gowns and paper covers be too much to ask? A basket of fuzzy socks would be great too
Check out this waiting room at Hevia Cosmetic Dermatology in Miama, Fl!
This hospital room by the Medical Office Interior Design is gorgeous!
My biggest wish for my doctors office – I think any obgyn office in general as I have had similar discussions with ladies over time in my infertility group – is to make the space more infertile-friendly. Dealing with pregnant women is obviously a big portion of the clientele so the abundance of pregnancy magazines and posters is understandable but there are also those trying to get pregnant and having difficulty conceiving that find it hard to look at. I am not saying that there needs to be a separate "fertile" and "infertile" waiting areas as that is a stretch but I know many occasions where there was not a single non-pregnancy/parenting magazine in the entire waiting area. It was hard to sit there when I was dying inside from yet another failed fertility cycle when I had a row of smiling pregnant women starting back at me. Side note: my doctor's office is awesome for grouping ob appointments and gyn appointments together so very rarely did I have an infertility appointment in the midst of pregnant women and I am so thankful for that.
If you had to redesign a doctor's office, what would you change?

Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux: Engaged!!!by Hilton Hater at . Comments
Forget the countless tabloid cover stories and rampant rumor mill, this time it's legitimate:
Jennifer Aniston is engaged!!!
A rep for fiance Justin Theroux confirmed the incredible news to People this afternoon, telling the magazine:
"Justin Theroux had an amazing birthday on Friday, receiving an extraordinary gift when his girlfriend, Jennifer Aniston, accepted his proposal of marriage."
Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux have been dating for more than a year, going public with their relationship in May of 2011.
The couple has been the subject of endless speculation, with one rag saying the former Friends star recently rejected the writer/director's proposal.
Amazing, we know. A tabloid got a Jennifer Aniston story wrong.
Ironically, there had been chatter that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie would get married this weekend. But, for once, Aniston stole her ex's spotlight.
We wish this happy couple nothing but the best!
Congratulations to the couple.
Forget Angelina...she is fugly....and a ho....
I bet Angelina Jolie is relieved.
Everybody's agree, Now I agree too, happy happy, to hear from jen " I DO" to Justin.........
...Happy and good time Jennifer and Justin...:)
Remember you can't be absolutely sure happily ever after can be until death do you part. I have a cousin who went through many relationships, before meeting his wife. They married and stayed happy for almost 40 years. Then she died. The happily ever after was for her, not him. I'm happily married, but ever after will end eventually for one of us.
I hope they make it to the altar.
It's about time Jen is happy!! She's a nice person, with a great personality. Let's hope Justin really loves her, treats her right, and doesn't let his hormones get the best of him with a leading lady.
Now it's time for her to move on and stop talking about your past. It was not meant to be for you and Brad is very very happy with Angie, 7 years with 6 children ! So hopefully this is your long awaited happiness. Everyone deserve to be happy. Good luck !
When are people going to move on already??? For a beautiful rich woman, I can honestly say that I don't envy her at all. Couldn't imagine people constantly talking about my past relationship for YEARS and making up rumors about how bitter and unhappy I am all that time as well. I swear Brad or Angie are mentioned every time her name comes up in the media. MOVE ON ALREADY.
Happy for them.

Would queue believe it?
Hard-working university students in eastern China turned up a week early before the start of term so they could queue for the best seats in the lecture rooms.
Hundreds of students in their final year at Nanning Audit University, Jiangsu province, slept in the corridors overnight so they could claim their spaces as soon as the classrooms opened the next day.
"Once you claim a seat it is yours for the term so you need to be sharp to get a good seat so you can see what's going on because some of the classes are very large.
"It's an important year with important exams so you need all the help you can get," explained student Li Chiang.
"Lectures don't start for another week.
"But if you're too slow you won't be able to see or hear anything.
"So we were all here in the corridor as soon as the university opened its doors," Chiang added.

Few names attain the status of legend or institution. Joey Negro certainly is both. Intrinsically linked with the birth of Soulful house in the UK and it's rise globally, Joey Negro is the most well-known pseudonym of master British DJ/producer/remixer Dave Lee. The name, an homage to Pal Joey and J. Walter Negro, has nonetheless become his calling card and synonymous with a house sound deeply rooted in disco. Under a plethora of other monikers including Jakatta, Akabu, The Sunburst Band, Sessomatto, Doug Willis, Raven Maize, and Z Factor, Dave was one of the first artists to incorporate disco samples in house music when he began his production career in 1988. Indeed, he was in the studio making credible, quality house music when many luminaries around him were still busy getting to grips with their decks. Little has changed since then and Dave is still widely regarded as one of the most commercially successful and in-demand artists on the global scene. A producer first and foremost, his work ethic is legendry, having been involved in well over 200 productions, countless albums and a healthy stack of hit singles such as 'Must Be The Music', 'Make A Move On Me', 'Can't Get High Without You' and Jakatta's 'American Dream' and 'My Vision', his discography is as impressive as they come and he continues to release a single per month. Collaborating with top musicians, vocalists and highly respected remixers such as Dennis Ferrer, Henrik Schwarz, Ame and Jimpster, has given him a reputation as one of the most sought after and well respected artists in the scene. His deep understanding as a selector of all things soulful and house on the dancefloor have ensured his status on the global DJ circuit worldwide to this day. Joey Negro's sets reflect his extensive love of music ranging from rare disco through to vocal and classic house often into more deep, electronic and techy areas, his sets littered with exclusive tracks, old and new. His performances are nothing short of legendary, leaving his audience uplifted, sweaty, sore and clamoring for more.
