As print media moves to e-publishing, publishers are still unsure of how radically readers' needs and preferences will continue to shift.
Demand Media, which launched its IPO last month to much fanfare, seems a good indicator of how to make money off of free informational content online while catering to readers' habits. Demand's business model engages readers by writing answers to exactly what they're looking for. For example, if one hundred thousand people are shown to be searching for information on how to care for a bonsai tree, Demand will write an article on it. This is a surefire way to bring readers answers they're looking for.
Pundits have latched onto Demand's IPO (in which purchase of common stock valued the company at $1.5 billion, $0.4 billion more than the New York Times' similar valuation in November 2010) as sign of the new media's victory over the old. If the Times makes less than a five year-old 'content farm', then the game is up for legacy media, or so the argument goes. But anybody who thinks newspapers and content farms are in the same business is either a journalist looking for an easy lede, or has never actually been to a content farm's site.
The question remains: what are the real stakes in the success or failure of content farms?
It can't be the battle for journalistic supremacy. As of this writing, a search on Ask.com for the question "What is going on in Egypt?" links first to the Huffington Post, then to ads for Egyptian tourism, then to a brief, anemic comment thread by Ask.com users, and finally to a long list of established news outlets. It should be obvious that "amybug25″ or "liloldfanny" at Ask.com aren't going to parse international politics for us. For that, we still trust news organizations like the New York Times, so we shouldn't be worried about Demand style content taking over the news media landscape.
If not newspapers, what's the right legacy media analogue for content farms? Before the internet, people went to books and specialty magazines for information on how to fertilize your lawn, stitch a Halloween costume, collect beanie babies, or get a discount on a cruise. This is the territory that content farms could someday take over from print media, but by any comparison they aren't even close to doing it yet. Demand, which produces the internet's biggest content farms, hasn't outmoded comparable brands like Health or House Beautiful Magazines (which respectively saw 16 and 20.6 percent increased in their single copy magazine sales in the second half of 2010) or one of the ultimate publications in legacy media, Reader's Digest, which was taken private in 2008 for a purchase price of 2.8 billion.
The thing to pay attention to is Demand's business model, which plugs new values into the old publishing equation, and may present a new paradigm for publishing. Instead of custom market research, they have Google analytics. Instead of print advertising and subscription by mail, they need only the Google search portal to target their potential readers. For content, they still hire writers and editors. Demand's sites are a publishing imprint and can't be compared to news organizations. Whether they or somebody like them becomes as trusted as the Farmer's Almanac is not something any pundit can reliably predict.

Charlie Sheen's record-breaking Twitter numbers may seem baseless to some, as many people are likely to dismiss commentary by celebrities in the search for more useful, meaningful storytelling to include in their daily media mix.

Although the idea that Sheen's audience numbers on Twitter are independent of larger media outlets is debatable given Sheen's wide, recent exposure on CBS's Two and a Half Men, it is clear that this shift has potential to carry over into other arenas beyond the cult of celebrity.

Beauty Spotlight: The Spice Girls' Hair & Makeup Evolution
The Spice Girls really need no introduction. Bursting onto the scene in 1996 with their hit single "Wannabe", the girls became as well known for their crazy hair and beauty looks as they were for their music. It's been 16 years of colour, curls and questionable choices — from Baby Spice Emma Bunton's cute blunt bob, to Geri's cascading curls and, of course, the Pob. There were ringlets, sexy up 'dos, coloured eyeshadows and so much more — and after seeing the girls reunited on Tuesday night at the Viva Forever! musical press event, we couldn't help but notice how far they've all come. Click through the gallery to see how Geri, Mel B, Mel C, Victoria and Emma have changed over the years!

Review: aFRO-mYSTIK Morphology
The latest project from aFRO-mYSTIK draws liberally from a variety of '70s fusion sources, from the Bitches Brew-influenced cover art to the lurking presence of Herbie Hancock. Like much early fusion, Morphology has strong and weak moments, and just as in the '70s, the weaker moments seem to coincide with cheesy strings, and occasionally unsteady singing and poetry. The album seems to reach its highest points when it travels to the most rhythmic dark-funk territory: "Intersections," for example, is a percussive, moody piece most closely reflecting the spirit of Miles Davis.

When a baseball franchise with tight pockets is on the verge of losing a star player to a team with brighter lights and bigger checks, it has two options: Trade the player for a bundle of prospects, or load up to try to win a World Series. More often than not, the Florida Marlins have chosen the former option. But the Milwaukee Brewers faced with the potential departure of slugging first baseman Prince Fielder decided to double-down on its championship chances. They traded top prospects for pitchers Shawn Marcum and Zack Greinke in order to solidify their starting rotation, betting that Fielder, along with outfielder Ryan Braun and second baseman Rickie Weeks, could carry the load offensively. Its a gamble that might pay off, but if it doesnt, the Brewers will find themselves in a familiar situation, only with the roles flipped, ransoming off Fielder to the highest bidder in an attempt to replenish their depleted farm system. Such is the ugly cycle for baseballs small-market teams. The dice roll will continue Monday night at Sun Life Stadium.

Want to know what deleted my last manual restore point (w7 x64)
Is this possible, if yes, how?
My manual created restore points get deleted at random. Sometimes they will still be available after weeks. Sometimes they just dissapear for reasons unknown to me. The last one dissapeared within 9 days and I'm now trying to figure out when this last restore point got deleted and for what reason. Can you help?
|My System Specs
|09 May 2012
I would imagine it would depend on how much drive space you have allocated to system restore.
What should happen is that when the allocated drive space is full, the oldest restore point will get deleted.
Don't forget also that Windows security updates will very often create a restore point, which can affect the frequency with which restore points get deleted.
System Restore: frequently asked questions
|My System Specs
|09 May 2012
Windows Updates have been disabled for half a year now, restore space is set to 2% (about 10GB). I really don't want to speculate as to what might have caused this to happen. I'd like to know if Windows 7 makes note of "restore point deletion" events and if yes what to look for within the event-viewer.
If Microsoft cannot make Sys restore more robust and if any program could delete restore points this whole restore thing is quite pointless (not secure enough). Windows should at least log restore-point deletion events or oddities. I've searched for the 8198 ID. But none can be found under "application log". Even tried making a restore point then delete it after a few minutes. Still no mention of this event in the logs....
|My System Specs
|10 May 2012
Restore points are stored in a hidden folder named System Volume Information, which is mapped to the root of the C drive.
You say you've allocated 2% of your HDD space for system restore, which is not a lot. I believe the default setting is 15% for Windows 7 (Windows XP is 12%).
If you're not happy using System Restore, have you considered full image backups instead? Many of us use Macrium for this purpose.

One more reason may be there . If any third party third party disk clear program is there with auto maintenance mode, it includes the restore points (except the latest one) in its cleaning list. Here is a screenshot from TuneUp Utilities ....

The 500mm semi-recessed basin is a classic 'half in-half out' sink. With a deep bowl, it provides a generous wash area while remaining minimal in design.
It has a width of only 500mm and a semi-recessed profile from your worktop or bathroom furniture. Therefore this basin is perfect for smaller bathrooms or cloakrooms and is an ideal compromise between minimalist bathroom design and the need for furniture storage in your bathroom.
The Euro Duo 500mm semi-recessed basin is available with 1 tap hole and incorporates an overflow hole to minimise the risk of water flooding.
To complete your modern bathroom look, this sink can be coupled with any of the Euro toilet pans, or indeed any Bathstore toilet.

Mooring vs slip?

Mooring vs slip?
The marina where I'd like to have my boat may or may not have any slips available for next season, but they definitely have moorings available. I'm trying to figure out how much of a pain a mooring would be or if there might actually be some advantages of a mooring.
Some stuff is obvious. For example, with a mooring...arrive at marina,have to get dinghy off rack, haul to dinghy launch site, and row out to sailboat. (The mooring is pretty close.) Then use dinghy to get rest of passengers/provisions or motor sailboat from mooring to t-head, tie up, and load from there. Repeat when returning, especially if I want to hose the boat off, top off water tanks, etc.
Getting a contractor on the moored boat would require more effort on my part. In the past, if, for example, I wanted an electrician to check something out, I could just tell him the slip number and the combination for the lock. If I were on a mooring, I'd have to bring the boat to the dock at a pre-arranged time.
Batteries may or may not be a concern. I'm guessing they would charge enough with the motoring I'd do to get out into the bay. (I do not have solar panels or a wind generator.)
On the plus side, the mooring is cheaper. And more private.
Not sure which is better in storms.
So, I am I considering the right factors? Or am I missing something important here on my "one the one hand and on the other hand" discussion with myself?

Battles » Dante vs Raoh
@phantomrant said:
Dante stops time and shoots him gg.
If we're gonna put in calcs here, then Raoh's speed advantage + Musou Tensei hax will result in him winning this.
But since I'm not gonna argue for any of the speed numbers from the recent HnK calcs except for the high-end mach 12+, Dante still wins this since he's faster in executing his hax.
Not sure what shooting is going to do to Ken-Oh. Seeing how Kenshiro, his younger brother was able to take a skyscrapper, giant rocks, and steel beams struck over his head. This was before Kenshiro was strong enough to take on Raoh.
Also here is something that Dante is going to have to watch out for....here is a younger Raoh, showing how deadly his punches are. Check at 7:20

When I Consider How My Light is Spent (On His Blindness)
Principles Quotes Page 2
How we cite our quotes:
Quote #4
who best
Bear his mild yoke, they serve him best.(lines 10-11)
The supreme principle of patience is that you have to endure difficulty and not question the hand that fate deals you. If you want to go left and fate decides you should go right, well, you're going right. A "yoke" is an instrument to bring people under submission, in this case to divine justice.
Quote #5
They also serve who only stand and wait." (line 14)
Not much to say here. This line pretty much defines "patience."

Yahoo! execs! stick! it! to! the! man!
Jerry Yang celebrates his first year as CEO of Yahoo! today, but with so many execs choosing to exit stage left, it's not exactly an anniversary he'll want to shout about. Over the past week many of the beleaguered internet firm's key players have upped sticks in what some observers see as an increasingly vocal protest against …
I only have one thing to say to Yang
So, all these senior executives who will have had a significant amount of their income paid in stock and options are voting with their feet. No great surprise there. With the fall in share price as a result of rejecting Microsoft, the executives' options are probably worthless, and the stock worth 1/2 of what it was. It's no surprise the executives are all running away - its starting to look like one of those classic reverse takeovers where the board level support for the boss just ebbs away until they are forced to resign. It's clear that Yang, for all his success, doesn't have a clue how to run a large company. This is one of the key reasons you get experienced people into CEO roles.
Can someone tell me..
what execs actually do?
execs leaving
It makes sense for founders to get moved on, it's natural - like putting your oldies in a returement home when they get too frail and slow to brush their own teeth.
I work in a company that's relatively young and we are currently suffering from a lot of "old timers" who are still here simply because they have elevated themselves to a high and generally unsackable rank over the years. they are dead weight and to be frank can't always do their jobs properly.
what is needed in any company that has expanded rapidly is to clear this dead weight and streamline management and resposibility chains to maximise the efficiency of the business overall.
Who would you rather have: a guy who is CEO because he started the company or a guy who has CEO'd 10 other companies in the last 20 years and has made billions for his shareholders ?
Buzzword Alert!
"Together, Navic and Microsoft will deliver addressable television advertising solutions to help our partners better manage media spend by increasing advertiser reach and ROI, and maximising publisher yield on television advertising."
If you can read that out loud without laughing (or crying), you may have a future in marketing.
And here people accuse Register hacks of murdering the language. 'leccy and mobe are nothing when compared with managed media spend that leverages ROI multipliers on advertiser reach vs. publisher yield.
@what execs actually do?
In my experience... Download a lot of pr0n.
How much?
Any idea what MS paid for Navic? What does a company with 82 employees go for now days?
Apparently they... 'take the money and run'
it's the sparkly one with a treble clef on the lapel
Strange how...
...in the IT world, when shares fall, execs walk.
In Barclays, the share price has fallen by half in the last year, but no tales of mass walk outs from heavy shareholders there.
Does this show how seriously people in the IT world take their 'investments' in a company compared to other markets?
Steven R
@Steven Raith
Part of this is course the Silicon Valley culture, where changing employers every 2-3 years is often considered a good thing.
However, Yang has no strategy to get Yahoo! competitive on its own, and their turnover was already bad. So I expect a lot of people are looking at the doorway while Yang's to do list reads like:
1. Buy tickets on the Titanic
2. Deck chairs--don't forget them!
3. Have interior decorator look into deck chair placement
And so, ultimately Microsoft gets its way as it has so many times before
as Yahoo! continues its relentless journey out of business, but, in a new twist, without a single Micro$ having to change hands. Now all Ballmer needs is to provide any reason whatsoever to use Live in preference to Google...
In other words we failed the Web.
So MIcrosoft is getting into TV advertising.
Translation: We failed on the Web, that is Googles, and TV is looking like a device that we can get market share, with Xbox and all.
Try, try, try again
Let us not forget Micro$loths last venture into the world of television with MSNBC that slowly disintergrated into a cloud of nothingness. I expect that the poor, suffering US TV viewers will soon be subjected to adverts extoling the virtues of Micro$loth's Live search. It is about the only way they will get people to use it.
@How much
Totally depends on the company - we've got 65 and we're worth about half a billion. Powerstation's don't come cheap :)
@Steven Raith
Probably because they know the company isn't going belly up *or* that when they do then Gov.uk will do a northern rock and bail them out.

PIKEVILLE, Ky. – An eight-run top of the seventh inning was too much for the University of Pikeville baseball team to overcome in a 12-6 loss to St. Catharine College on Friday.
The game, which allowed the Patriots to complete the series sweep of the Bears, was played early with a 10:30 a.m. start to elude the pending rain.
St. Catharine posted a pair of runs in the third and one in the fourth to build a 3-0 lead, but the Bears rallied to take the lead in the bottom of the fifth.
The Bears loaded the bases with one out and got two in with a single to left by Brad Andrews to plate Joe Morris, who had singled, and Jason Rosen who was hit by a pitch. Pat O'Brien singled to right to deliver Adam Overbay with the tying run.
One out later, Luke Wright singled in Andrews to give the Bears the 4-3 lead.
But in the top of the sixth, the Patriots used six hits and three walks to send eight across the plate to lead 11-4. The Bears scored once in the bottom of the frame and each team posted one in the ninth.
Right fielder Nate Goodwin had three of UPIKE's 13 hits in the loss. O'Brien doubled and singled and drove in two, while Overbay and Wright had a pair of singles. Andrews singled, scored twice and drove in a pair, while Morris, Chris Morford and Andrew Hitchcock all singled.
The Bears are scheduled to return to action on Sunday at 2 p.m. when they host Berea College at Johnnie LeMaster Field.

I would expect this new ´endangered species mouse´ is one of the loopholes the environmentalists have cooked up with their buddies in the Federal Government. This Enviro group - WildEarth Guardians - sued and the Forest Service cut a deal with them, as opposed to holding proper notice, research, etc - so they can shortcut ranchers and other ´stakeholders´ from having a rational say when the Marxists cut their historic livelihoods out of existence by fiat.Here´s a snip of verbiage from their website:-halted logging on more than 21 million acres of national forests in the southwest-ushered in a new era of endangered species protection for more than 1,000 imperiled plants and animals that will get a fighting chance at survival thanks to our historic Endangered Species Act legal settlement-forced the closure of coal-fired power plants in pursuit of climate sanityEnvironmentalists are trying to turn NM into what they have done to Africa - keep it undeveloped so they can vacation there and have it pristine w/o people making a living there, unless they are trimming their creosote bushes or fixing fajitas w margaritas.

this campaign strongly.
"There was a bit of disappointment immediately after the Real Madrid match but then we were looking forward to Chelsea, so I haven't thought about it," he explains. "I was obviously proud [of my 1,000th match] and would've liked better circumstances to celebrate it, but I just get on with it and hope for a good end to the season.
"I think as you enter your thirties you are just trying to play for as long as possible and to get as much out of the game as you can. Luckily, I've managed to stay injury free and I've had the continuity of the manager being here. So many things have gone for me and I've looked after myself, but nobody ever envisages getting to 1,000 games."

"I absolutely loved this trip! The guides, both western and local were great. I cannot say enough good things about your local guide in Vietnam. He's such a passionate, caring individual with such attention to every detail. His relationship with the drivers, with restaurateurs, with the western guide was clearly fantastic.

Trips by Destination
Burma (Myanmar), Biking
"This is Burma, and it will be quite unlike any land you know about", wrote Rudyard Kipling in 1898. More than a century later, Burma's lure endures as a place where time stands still; the bicycle remains a favorite way for locals to travel- we'll follow their lead exploring the treasures of this exotic land.
Only Great Explorations:
• Small groups, extraordinary guides, and authentic experiences-in Myanmar, a local guide and driver/support vehicle are with us the entire trip
• A ride you will never forget:- Kalaw to Mandalay
• A river cruise on the luxurious RV Paukan
• Wine included at first and final night receptions
• We design and operate our own trips so there are only good surprises
Please note: we offer daily 'non-cycling' options for those who choose not to ride.
Yangon - We will meet you on arrival into Yangon airport and whisk you to the hotel. Late afternoon/early evening, we will visit the Shwedagon Pagoda, the most revered Buddist temple in Myanmar. Built 2500 years ago, the 8-sided stupa is 99 metres tall and gilded in gold leaf. Welcome dinner at a local restaurant in Yangon.
Inle Lake - After breakfast, transfer to Yangon airport for a flight to Heho, Upon arriving at Heho, you'll start on bikes heading first to the Shwe Nyaung Junction. Then proceed to one of Asia's most beautiful inland waters to Nyaungshwe, located north of the lake. After lunch, continue to the village of Khaung Daing on a combination of dirt and paved roads through the Burmese countryside. Dinner OYO. Distance- up to 70 km
Inle Lake -After breakfast, cycle past stilt villages inhabited by local Intha people. Observe leg-rowing fishermen and see their floating gardens anchored to the bottom with bamboo poles. Continue to Phaung Daw Oo Pagoda, the lake's main sanctuary, with contains the five sacred Buddha images covered in gold leaf. Afterwards, visit the Thar Lay village to meet with local Inthar people. We will also visit the weaving village of Inpawkhone and a cheroot factory, where typical Burmese cigars on made by hand. From the middle of the lake, we will cotinue down a small canal to the Pa-oh village of In Dein, exploring the area on foot, visiting a local school and the beautiful Alaung Sitthou area. Alaung Sitthou is filled with picturesque ancient stupas and has magnificent views of the lake below. Dinner OYO.
Kalaw - We'll ride west along the Shan plateau through pine forests and bamboo groves. Kalaw was a popular hill station in the British days and makes for an atmospheric place to overnight. We'll meet with a remarkable resident, whose grandfather resided here, and whose home we might visit prior to dinner at a local restaurant. Distance - up to 60 km Dinner at a local restaurant
Popa -Today is a scenic ride to Meikhtila. On today's ride, you will be able to see first-hand the diversity and regionality of Myanmar. You will begin by driving along bamboo and pine tree forests of the Shan Hills until you reach the toddy palm tree lined plains of the Ayerwaddy valley. Then, we proceed to Mount Popa by vehicle. Along the way, you will pass by villages and you will have plenty of opportunity to observe traditional lifestyles of the rural Burmese. Their life is lacking in many modern amenities yet the concept of mutual help and cooperation are central to village life. The road is good and traffic light, varied scenery and lots of stops make it an enjoyable ride. The terrain starts out quite hilly but there are options to ride in the support van is you wish.

Next day, options will include a ride sacred Mt Popa, where atop a rocky crag clings a picturesque complex of monasteries and shrines.

[…] In Were my Microsoft Certification Exams Worth it I detailed my experience with these types of certifications. My conclusion has been upheld so far, that the certifications themselves do not provide much value once a certain level of experience is obtained. Therefore, I've fully abandoned the idea of updating or getting new ones. "Any sort of certification by a tool vendor is worthless. Any certification created by a methodology proponent is also worthless." – David Starr on Herding Code episode 150 […]

Japan is a great country for sightseeing and travel — if you can afford it. Transportation costs are at least double that of the USA. It costs around US $85 just to travel 300 KM (about 190 miles) by the "bullet train" (Shinkansen in Japanese). Want to save some doe and meet people? Try hitchhiking! I do and I love it!
I first came to Japan in 1972 while in the US military stationed near Tokyo. A couple years later I decided to become a missionary to the Japanese people and tell them about Jesus Christ. Missionaries need to "live by faith". This also means to live within one's income. I needed to travel the country to "preach the Gospel" but could not always afford public transportation. My partner and I often opted to hitchhike. We usually got to our destination that day, and if we didn't, often the person that picked us up took us to their home where we spent the night and sometimes several days.
I wish I had kept a record of all my adventures hitchhiking in Japan. If I had, I would have a book by now which might have even been a best seller. LOL! At the very least, it would have made interesting reading for me in my old age. I'm 54 at the time of this post.
I define hitchhiking as getting rides from total strangers. Therefore it does not include rides from associates, friends or family.
What kind of people pick me up?
Kind people, unselfish people, people who care about others. Some are fond of Westerners, some study English and want to practice using it, some lived in the USA and want to repay the kindness they received from Americans, some have hitchhiked in their university days and understand people who do, some have broken hearts (often marital problems or broken love relationships) and wish to pour out their hearts to somebody, some are lonely, and some know they are prone to be sleepy driving on the expressway and wish to have someone to talk with in order to help them stay awake! Some drivers have correctly identified me as a Christian missionary even before I tell them so! They are usually the most open to hearing the Message of the Gospel of Jesus Christ from the Bible than most Japanese. To meet such people and have an opportunity to share the Truth with them makes it worth all the discomfort of the hot sun, rain, wind and snow I sometimes face while hitchhiking.
How do I hitchhike? Read a whole page I compiled of tips!
Since August of 2003 I have been keeping statistics of my travels.
Some of my adventures
October 13, 2014: Today is the first day of a major change in my life. I returned home from my trip to Aomori prefecture to an empty house. My beloved spouse has gone to America to help her daughter's large family of 7 children. Our dog, Lady, was also not in the house but I … Continue reading
I left Hirosaki in Aomori Prefecture just after 7:00 a.m. and got home in Niigata city by 2:04 p.m.! This is about as good as it gets to travel 600 km or 400 miles in only 7 hours in 5 cars with very little waiting. What's more, the folks that picked me up made the … Continue reading
In order to save a bit more money, rather than take a train from Niigata city to Murakami, I decided to take that train only as far as Shibata. This placed me directly on Route 7 rather than Route 345 on the Sea of Japan. The last two times hitchhiking on Route 345, I had … Continue reading
February 28, Day 1 It's the first day of a one week adventure traveling mainly by hitchhiking! I'm on my way to Kansai of which the principle cities are Kyoto, Osaka and Kobe. Today's destination was Osaka. I hitchhiked again from Niigata City to Osaka. This time I made it in record time arriving directly … Continue reading
Today was partially overcast with dark snow clouds. It snowed from time to time. Nevertheless I made it as far as Odate City in 8 vehicles. Car #2 was Mr. Kawahara who works with Honda motor company selling car parts. I may see him again at the local Home Center in March. He took me … Continue reading
February 15, 2014 According to yesterday's weather forecast, I expected it to snow all day and was prepared to take a train from Niigata City to Hirosaki in Aomori Prefecture. But at 7:30 a.m. because the weather was fair, I decided to get off the train at Majima station and hitchhike. The traffic was sparse. … Continue reading
On a snowy morning of January 17, after a 5 minute bike ride to the local train station where I park my bicycle and from where I walk to the highway, just a few meters away from the station my right foot slipped on the snow, hit a rock in the road, and my ankle … Continue reading
This year I hitchhiked 24.048 kilometers (15,030 miles) which is 4518 kilometers more than my previous record of 19,530 kilometers in 2009! The chart below shows the years from 2005 to 2013 the distances in kilometers traveled by hitchhiking. At 15.4088 yen per kilometer on a local train, it means I saved 370,551 yen this … Continue reading
October 25, 2013: My destination was Aomori City, 470 kilometers from home. I hitchhiked from Murakami City as far as Sakata City in Yamagata Prefecture, a distance about 90 kilometers. After that I had to abort due to rain. It was worth the effort! Mrs. Fujiwara picked me up for the 6th time and she … Continue reading
From October 4th to 6th over three days I traveled in 15 cars 1358 kilometers or 849 miles passing through Tokyo to Hamamatsu City in Shizuoka Prefecture, and then to Osaka, and then back home to Niigata. Total transportation costs was 590 yen, about $6.00. The trip was one of the most fun ever! You … Continue reading

A new statewide map of Nebraska's bicycle trails and highways suitable for bicycles is available.
The Nebraska Department of Roads patterned the bicycle map after the new highway map that was released last year. But the bicycle map is printed on special waterproof plastic paper.
The map identifies towns with paths for bicycle riders and pedestrians, and shows trails longer than five miles. Plus, the state's highways are color coded to show information about traffic volume and shoulder width.
Bicyclists can use all Nebraska highways, except interstates and freeways.
The maps can be obtained from the state by emailing dor.bikeped(at)nebraska.gov or writing to State Bicycle Coordinator, Nebraska Dept. of Roads, PO Box 94759, Lincoln, Nebraska 68509-4759.
