Taka moved from Japan to California over four years ago to be able to ride as much as possible with the other Temecula riders. He is training with Jeremy "Twitch" Stenberg and the Dirt Bike Kids Crew. Despite a busy schedule - living the dream and competing in FMX events across the US - Higashino still finds time to return to his native Japan a few times a year to ride with the MX-Virus crew.
Looking at his haircut and riding style, you can tell that Taka is a real punk rocker with no fear of going big, even when performing the most technical backflip combos. The Temecula resident worked more than ever to get some top results into his stats. A well-deserved gold metal at X-Games for his run and silver for a Best Trick showcased that the Temecula resident was on top of his game at the moment.
After two good rounds on the 2012 World Tour, Higashino was back in the 2013 Red Bull X-Fighters series and proved he could be one of the riders to win the tour with three podiums in three events. The victory in his hometown, Osaka, was a dream come true for him. He finished the season with a strong third place overall and got the invite for the following season. In 2014, Taka missed out on the season opener and could not tie with his performance in Osaka from the previous year. After a disappointing 8th place at home, the Yamaha rider got back to his strong shape in Madrid with a 5th place. Taka fought for victory in Munich, but Sheehan was just stronger in a dramatic finale. When the tour moved to Pretoria for its final stop, Higashino could not get the right grip on the red African soil and he finished 7th but gained enough points overall to finish the tour on the 5th position, which gave him an invite for all 2015 tour stops.
The young Japanese was not able to use his pre-qualification for world tour until the 3rd stop in Madrid last year, where he only ended up 7th. After a disappointing event in Pretoria in 2014, Higashino got finally the right feeling for the red soil in Africa and was able to conquer the podium with a solid performance, but he was not able to carry that momentum over to the next event in Abu Dhabi, where he closed the season with a 7th place and finished 9th overall. Watch out for the Dirt Bike Kids rider in Madrid – a true Samurai is always ready to strike.

African Archaeology Today. (Special Section)
Lane, Paul, Antiquity
For most archaeologists across the globe, mention of Africa in the context of archaeological research will probably bring to mind the important discoveries of early stone tools and hominid remains in eastern and southern Africa, the spectacular stone-walled enclosures and other structures at Great Zimbabwe, and images of `tribal' culture, subsistence practices, artefacts and housing that, to some Western eyes at least, can seem reminiscent of a more distant non-African past. For some, the architectural and artistic splendours of Egyptian civilization may also form part of this image of archaeology on the continent, although for complex geopolitical, historical and academic reasons the study of Egyptian archaeology, in all but a few instances, continues to be regarded as distinct from that of the rest of Africa. While accepting that the preceding sentences are something of a caricature of the non-Africanist's understanding and perception of the work of archaeologists on the continent, and that general introductory texts on archaeological methods and theory nowadays give wider coverage of African case-studies than was the case even a decade ago (e.g. Renfrew & Bahn 1991; Fagan 1995), the level of awareness of the breadth of African archaeology, current discoveries and research issues, as well as the many problems that practitioners and managers face on a daily basis, remains abysmally low.
Accounting for this restricted view of African archaeology within the wider discipline is beyond the scope of this Introduction, but any attempt would have to consider, at the very least, the history of Africa's relationship with the West (and, to a certain extent also the East); the dominant images of the continent, its peoples and their lives at large in the world today; the low levels of funding of archaeology across the continent by both African governments and the broader academic community; and the publication crisis which afflicts not just archaeologists but virtually all academics who live and work in Africa (for discussions of these different issues and how they constrain and channel the production of knowledge about Africa's pasts, see e.g. Robertshaw 1990; Schmidt & Patterson 1995; Hall 1996). Whatever the precise reasons (which are bound to be both varied and multi-layered), the relative neglect by the broader discipline of the substantive archaeology of such a vast continent, and the theoretical, methodological and practical issues that its study raises, is disheartening.
It is disheartening in the first place because of the enormous opportunities on offer for field research, given that large tracts of land remain in archaeological terms terra incognita. The results of such surveys not only enhance understanding of regional culture histories, but are also crucial to the establishment of viable sites and monuments registers and effective management and protection of the archaeological resources of individual African countries.
Secondly, there is the very real potential that careful analysis of African archaeological material and contexts has to inform most of the broader `big-issue' theoretical debates in the discipline. Regrettably, aside from the debates over the evolution of our species and the origins of hominid and modern human behaviour, virtually no other major theme in the discipline is routinely discussed using African case-studies. Where such material is considered, it is normally used to illustrate examples of either `secondary' centres of adoption or technological diffusion. That this is so can only serve to reinforce perceptions by the outside world of Africa as `primeval' and peripheral. Yet, whether one examines the emergence of complex hunter--gatherers; the nature and meanings of rock art; plant and animal domestication and the adoption of agriculture; the development of metallurgy; the rise of urbanism and emergence of complex societies; indigenous responses to colonialism; or a host of other issues, in all cases there is much to learn from Africa's experiences and the historical trajectories of its peoples. …

How can one file perjury case in India?
Answers to the questionDisplay order
psuresh111 1
File an application with High court under apt section. Eg: Section 340 (If wrong confinement), 193, 195, 199, 200 etc if perjury is a false affidavit/ written submission/ oral submission in court proceedings etc.
Court will then:
1. Take suo moto action.
2. Conduct an inquiry. Both parties will sign respective statements in the court. Court will then record its findings and one of its officers will sign it. This complaint i.e. from the court will be forwarded to a first class magistrate.
3. That magistrate has the power to deliver a sentence under the clause of perjury. Law will get applied and apt justice will be done.

Receive application or suo motu – application can be filed by a person not party to the proceedings in relation to which the offense is committed. The court where application is filed only decides if inquiry should be made Hold preliminary inquiry (not essential in law). Record findings . Make a complaint in writing - include offence, facts on which it is based and evidence available for proving it. The judge has to sign the complaint himself.

We realize systems in accordance with our strict process guidelines. In the first phase we prepare a specification detailing the system requirements in collaboration with our customers. This describes the system in detail. In the next step, which can be realized, is the software design and implementation according to the relevant CENELEC standards and the guidelines of our own Total Quality Management System.

Print Parent Approved Halloween Routes for TeensTerrance Gaines
Thanks to HP for sponsoring this post. Click here to see more of the discussion.
For parents with teens, you've probably dreaded making the decision to let your kids go "trick or treating" without parental supervision for quite some time. You have decided that this year is the year you finally let your kids venture out into the [early] night to solicit goodies from strangers along.
That sounds scary, but using technology and a little bit of pre-planning, you can let your teens have fun this Halloween, while still providing direction and guidance. Using Google Maps Apps on your smartphone and a mobile-ready printer, you can print out "approved homes" for your kids to visit to feel just a little more secure.
Print Parent-Approved Halloween Routes for Teens 1 of 6
Locate and print pictures of houses that are safe for your teens to visit unsupervised this Halloween using Google Maps and a mobile-ready printer

Get Familiar With the Neighborhood 2 of 6You can use the Google Maps Apps on your smartphone to pre-plan potential routes for your kids to take. Now, you will have to go out for a walk or drive to scout potential homes for your teens to visit. Now would be a good time to get to know your neighbors and your neighborhood and find out who they are and if they will be passing out candy.
Pinpoint Exact Houses 3 of 6While you're scouting houses, you can also use Google Maps on your smartphone to pin point the exact house location. You can use the "Drop Pin" feature to get an exact address along with a street-view image of approved houses so your teens hit the right spots.
Street-View Screen Capture 4 of 6The Google Maps Street View feature is handy because you can get more information about a location like the actual address and event a picture if a Google camera has mapped the location. While in Street View, capture a screen shot of the house information on your smartphone (hold Power + Home button in most cases) to save it in your images gallery.
Send to Printer 5 of 6
You can open the HP ePrinter app (if you have an HP mobile printer) to send the screen shot to your printer on location to have the prints ready by the time you get home.
Add notes to prints 6 of 6
As a Helicopter concerned parent, if you feel the need to add more information, you can add notes right to the print-outs to ensure your kids all get the necessary information to hit the right houses.
It's scary (see what I did there) to send you kids out into the world, but if you start now by educating yourself and your kids on the smart ways to use mobile technology, you can ease your fears.

Hi everyone,
I have a GT ZuM that I have ridden with no problems for more than 9 months. However, recently the three highest gears(lowest speeds) (this bike has 8 gears) have made lots of noise, especially the highest gear (lowest speed), which doesn't work anymore. The lower 5 gears all work very well with no noise. Anyone know why? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

URBANA — Construction of what is now a $9.1 million family aquatic center at Crystal Lake Park, aided by relatively mild and dry weather, is ahead of schedule, according to the director of the Urbana Park District.
The aquatic center is projected to open next June 1 on the same site as two earlier versions of Crystal Lake Pool, a facility that dates to 1927.
The aquatic center, actually three separate water surfaces and accompanying play areas, now will include a 17-foot-high climbing wall that is expected to be an attraction for middle and high school students.
"It's called an AquaClimb Sport (http://www.aquaclimb.com/prod-sport.php [5]) and it's 17 feet tall and it curves out over the water so that as you're climbing you eventually get to a point where you're leaning backward and you can't go any farther and you just drop into the water," said Vicki Mayes, executive director of the park district. "It will be in the deep well (pool) with a one-meter diving board and a fast, high-energy slide that empties into it."
In August, the climbing wall was removed from the list of aquatic center features when construction bids came in over estimates. But private fundraising from individuals and families has allowed the $86,700 feature to be restored.
"We're about $10,500 short of our fundraising goal for it, but we still have money coming in," she said. "We'll still accept any donations.
"But we needed to go ahead and order it because we needed to have it fabricated and delivered in time to install it before we open next summer."
Now all of the features that had been proposed for the aquatic center earlier this year — including an irrigation system on the facility's grounds, parking lot resurfacing, an enclosed water slide, a "sprayground," a streambed feature and the climbing wall — will be a part of the project.
"The construction is going well. We've had wonderful weather," Mayes said. "The floor of the competition pool has been poured. The walls are framed up for the competition pool and we expect to being pouring concrete there soon.
"They have gotten almost all the masonry work done for the three buildings — the filter house and the two bathhouse buildings. The steel supports are set for the bathhouse buildings. The beams are set and they've begun to install the roof decking."
In some areas construction is on schedule; in others it's ahead of schedule.
"This is actually great construction weather they've been working in," said Mayes.
As of Thursday morning, December temperatures were 13 degrees above normal and precipitation for the month totaled less than 1.5 inches. Although September and October rainfall was above average, November temperatures were near normal and rainfall was well below average.

The original crocodile hunter, Malcolm Douglas, is a survivor in many ways. He has had countless close calls from 40 years of adventuring in the bush. He has lasted in the fickle world of film and TV since 1964 and is still as popular as ever. And last year he battled and defeated prostate cancer. But it is Malcolm's efforts to save the saltwater crocodile from extinction that really deserves our admiration.
BRENDAN HUTCHENS, REPORTER: In 1964, Malcolm Douglas, then just 23 years old, and a mate, set off on a six-month trip around Australia. Six months turned into four years. It was a journey that shaped Malcolm's future. And as they travelled and explored, they filmed their adventures.

Maximal symmetry and fully wound coverings
Abstract | References | Similar Articles | Additional Information
Abstract: A compact bordered Klein surface of genus is said to have maximal symmetry if its automorphism group is of order , the largest possible. We show that for each value of k there are only finitely many topological types of bordered Klein surfaces with maximal symmetry that have exactly k boundary components. We also prove that there are no bordered Klein surfaces with maximal symmetry that have exactly p boundary components for any prime . These results are established using the concept of a fully wound covering, that is, a full covering of the bordered surface Y with the maximum possible boundary degree.

ANA Economic Security Program included a no-strike clause based on this personal responsibility doctrine. By 1957 43 state nursing associations had adopted the ESP, and by 1986, SNAs represented 60 percent of all organized RNs (approximately 120,000).
The economic and political processes that transformed the organization of work in the United States since the 1870s gave rise to salaried, white collar occupations. These new occupations became stratified into segments, some with greater and some with lesser amounts of control over their work. Within the nursing profession, economic and political processes divided the occupation into distinct strata with different levels of control over their different goals in the workplace.

The waiting is the hardest part
On Tuesday I had an MRI (with and without contrast) on my brain. It's not the first time I've had an MRI on my brain. The last one was about 8 years ago and due to all of the migraines I was having. This time, however, it's because of all of the weird symptoms I've been having over the past 6 or so months – periodic double vision, tingling in my hands and feet, tightness in my throat, dizziness. All of these symptoms can be attributed to my anxiety disorder (and with my eyes, my history of strabismus and four eye muscle surgeries over theRead More →

I just signed up with the website, but I have been on it before checking out some of the post on here about non vax and trying to find info on immune system boosters. My husband and I have a 2 month old and have made the decision not to vax him based on the research we have done (and it's pretty scary) I have a 5yr old that did receive all shots up to date, which he received before all of the info I have come across. Thank God he is a healthy boy. But now we are looking for any tips or websites that might have info on how to boost a baby's immune system. We recently bought infant vitamin drops, but I would like to keep my options open.

The new home of
Church Stretton is a historic market town situated between Ludlow and Shrewsbury and a hot spot for walkers due to its proximity to the Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Known for having some of the oldest known rock formations in the world, the town is surrounded by picturesque villages, and is an excellent base for your cottage holiday in Shropshire; ideal for exploring the wonderful surrounding countryside.
The town is also referred to as 'Little Switzerland' due to the hilly landscape and the way in which the houses hug the hillside. It was developed as a spa resort in Victorian and Edwardian times, offering respite from the newly industrialised urban areas of Britain.
Church Stretton contains a number of listed and protected buildings; including the Grade I listed St Laurence's Church. There are several antique shops and independent stores in the town, a large antiques market, numerous traditional tea shops and cafes and many friendly pubs. Acton Scott Historic Working Farm and the nearby Snailbeach Lead Mine are also worth a visit.
The Long Mynd, which rises immediately to the west of Church Stretton, is renowned for paragliding and hang gliding and is home to England's second highest golf course. The Long Mynd, together with the Stretton Hills, which lie to the east of the town, is popular for walking and hiking.
The historic Rectory Woods is a peaceful place to stroll. Route 32/33 of the Regional Cycle Route runs through Church Stretton on its route between Craven Arms and Shrewsbury. Mountain biking is popular on the many country lanes and bridleways in the surrounding hilly countryside and the town has swimming pools, a BMX facility and other public sports facilities.

A charming retreat tucked away in the South Shropshire Hills, a rural idyll made famous by the poems of A.E. Housman's A Shropshire Lad.
Henley Cottage is a 19th- century former farm labourer's dwelling, sympathetically restored to reinstate its original condition and located in a picturesque estate landscape which has remained unchanged for two centuries. This humble property, which sleeps up to five, has taken many a star turn on BBC TV, including hit series Victorian Farm and new for 2010, Escape in Time. Holiday visitors now have the opportunity to enjoy its simple and homely atmosphere and the unique opportunity to escape modern day living. Henley Cottage has been much written about and has been tipped by The Sunday Times' Top 100 Cool Holiday Cottages (2010).Accommodation: The cottage (one of a pair) has three floors and at its heart is the kitchen/parlour, boasting a cast-iron kitchen range. State-of-the-art in 1888, it is in perfect working order. The simple, airy interiors, lime-washed in pleasing natural colours, are floored with oak or original quarry tiles. The atmospheric lighting is provided by oil lamps and candles and there's a walk in larder for cool food storage.Narrow original stairs lead to the first floor and one double bedroom with wrought-iron bedstead heated by a small fireplace, steep open tread stairs lead to the top floor and a twin room with wood-burner and sloping ceiling. A fifth person can sleep on the third bedroom/landing. Beds are equipped with comfortable horsehair mattresses, linen sheets and blankets of pure wool.There is a fireside tin bath for bathing, while the laundry room includes original copper, mangle and dolly tub with fresh water drawn from a pump. Smoothly-cobbled paths edge the lawns and outside seating area.For the faint hearted, the single concession to the 21st century is a modern hot water shower and flush loo contained within an outhouse in the private garden.
Location: You will discover a piece of British history at Acton Scott, for it achieved national fame as the setting for BBC2's hit TV series Victorian Farm, acknowledging the Acton family's championing of sustainable practices. It has been followed by another Acton Scott-based BBCTV series Escape in Time, new for 2010 and presented by Ben Fogle.Guests can enjoy a memorable setting and a multitude of activities on this lovingly preserved estate, including the Historic Working Farm - where the land is worked with heavy horses to preserve a way of life before the age of the tractor. This visitor attraction is a firm favourite with families. There is the handy School House café (open April to October) and lovely guided walks and cycle rides.The prettiest market towns and traditional country pubs are all close at hand. Including Shrewsbury to the north, on the banks of the River Severn; and Ludlow, to the south, in its medieval castle setting. This is a food paradise with Michelin star restaurants and artisan shops galore. The spectacular Stretton Hills and Welsh Marches offer riding, cycling and walking. Among the many nearby sites are Attingham Park, the famous Ironbridge Gorge and its many museums, the castles of Powis and Stokesay and Wroxeter Roman city. But if you simply cannot tear yourself away from Acton Scott, the finest local produce and home prepared meals can be delivered to your holiday cottage.Henley Cottage is one of three holiday houses at Acton Scott. The Shooting Lodge, sleeping 8 + 3, reference RNP, and Henley Farmhouse, sleeping 20, reference RJJ3, are likewise finely restored character properties, but offer every modern day convenience. All three properties may be rented together or individually, to accommodate the needs of larger parties.Nearby and three miles to the east of Shrewsbury, Rupert Acton is also the custodian of Cronkhill Farmhouse on the National Trust's Attingham Park estate. A spacious 17th century timber framed property with spectacular views towards the River Severn, it sleeps up to 14, see ref RN5.For more information visit www.actonscott.com
The flexible accommodation at Acton Scott can be taken together by larger parties so that 36 people can stay for family gatherings and weddings etc. Thirty minutes' drive to the north, near Shrewsbury, is Cronkhill Farmhouse, sleeping 14, which is also managed by the Acton Scott estate. See property ref RN5.

Don't blame me, I'm from Massachusetts.
Last 3 days luxury touring Gloucester from Good Harbor Beach area. We noodled, stopped and explored.
Day 1. Looped Rockport, Annisguam and back to Gloucester by foolishly taking the third, not second exit off a traffic circle and went up on and promptly off Rt. 128. Discussions about if riding on sidewalks is legal pale in comparison to riding on 128.
2. Went out to Essex, Ipswich, Hamilton, Wenham, Beverley, Manchester by the Sea and back to Gloucester.
3. Wingaersheek Beach and out Concord Rd to Conomo Point.
Gloucester has some nice bike lanes; there are a couple of difficult intersections no one can figure out and the traffic is slow and generally pedestrian and bicycle friendly. One local was annoyed with us slow pokes and a confused tourists right turned on us then sincerely apologized. No harm done and we did our best to be good cyclists all learning to get along. To get off island there are bits of hilly highway on Rt 133 and Rt 127. It gets better further west and Concord Rd north of Rt 133 towards Essex was fantastic. The Essex Ship Building Museum (with much appreciated shade) and the Ipswich Alexander Knight House are both real life, story telling museums.essex.jpgipswich.jpgmadhatter.jpg Most rides ended with a pleasant repast like this restaurant on Rocky Neck in East Gloucester.

I had grand plans for a tour of Nahant after work today, but working late killed them. Still did a spur on the bike path, though. Took this portrait before turning around:
I have to work tomorrow, too. It should be criminal to work on a weekend day as nice as tomorrow is going to be. Bah.
I did do the bike commute today after skipping two days for music reasons. But I did not get by the seacoast today, just Waltham to Woburn and across 128, and back of course. The day was lovely.
I rode the Bianchi today. It has been getting the lion's share of commuting for several years now, probably 1000 miles this year alone. It finally complained about all the dirt and sand it has had to tolerate. Partway home the front derailleur decided it didn't want to shift. Usually they stiffen up such that the spring won't push it to the small ring. In this case it was the other way, the cable wouldn't pull over to the big ring. Ho hum, keep it on the small ring and shift the rear. And pedal like crazy until I can't keep up on the downhills. It's okay now after some TLC, cleaning and oil.

Spent a quiet week in Little Compton, Rhode Island, decompressing. This stretch of the South Coast, lying on Buzzards Bay and Rhode Island Sound (depending on which side of Gooseberry Neck you're on), and comprising Little Compton and Tiverton Rhode Island, along with Westport and Dartmouth Massachusetts, has been dubbed by some clever flack "the farm coast". The term is evocative: there is indeed a visible agricultural legacy there, realized in old barns and silos and numerous roadside stands, including those selling fresh local strawberries (the season's just ending) and blueberries (the season's just beginning), among other things. The coastline is punctuated by rivers and creeks, with mill-ponds inland and a chain of salt ponds backing the dunes behind the beaches; flat and sandy terrain, with enough hills to be interesting. Much of the land is carefully manicured lawns and hedges, some of it opulent, but the fields of working farms, and a surprising amount of forest, offset that, along with a sort of characteristic vegetable riot along the roadside, comprised of wild grapes and beach roses, with a little poison ivy thrown in for sport. While this brief vacation wasn't bicycle-centric, the bikes came along, and got used to sample the great riding there in 10- and 15-mile segments; a couple of representative rides--to Sakonnet via South Shore Beach and Wilbour Woods; a neat loop through the village of Acoaxet by way of the village of Pottersville--stand for the rest. The week ended too soon, of course; I'll have to contrive to return for some longer rides.
An excursion to the Green Animals topiary gardens provided the required cognitive priming for an encounter with Vegetable Godzilla, who was definitely rioting.
A car-load of Rhode Island Reds, inhabiting some retired rolling stock in Little Compton.
A different sort of tree ring, seen on the ride to Sakonnet.
Riding down to Sakonnet Harbor.
Multum in parvo: Sakonnet's West Beach (privately owned, with some limited access) sits hidden behind a honeysuckle-covered wall; passing through the gate is liminal magic.
The Sun asserts itself at Sakonnet.
Pottersville, on the road to Acoaxet.
A 19th-century hotel, now a private cottage, in Acoaxet.
Atlantic Avenue, Acoaxet, sits between Cockeast Pond and a line of dunes, with Rhode Island Sound beyond. This village was devastated in the 1938 hurricane, and lesser storms occasionally bury Atlantic Avenue under the dunes. Shingle-style cottages seen in the distance date in some cases as far back as the 1870s, when Acoaxet was created as a summer colony for the booming industrial city of Fall River.

Haven't visited in here for a while but got homesick for some New England bike ride stories- and you guys did not disappoint. Great pix!
I am so far out of Metro Boston these days but will post a pic from my July 4th weekend bike ride. That's the sun going down in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of La Jolla, CA. Riding every day to commute to work and doing some nice road rides along the coast but not as many days off as I'd hoped.
I'll be back in New England in August and can't wait. Nice weather here but we have it beat in New England for sweet rides and destinations.
Enjoy your summer!
Rode out to Marblehead Neck today, 12.5 miles round trip from the apartment so a quick ride, fighting a stiff headwind on the way there and riding a nice tailwind on the way back. I really like the park at the end of the neck. It's a good place to get some shade and top off the water bottles.
We did 40.37 miles on the tandem today. Mostly our usual roads but we did check out something new, East Riding Drive in Carlisle (I think). It wasn't what I wanted but now I know what the road marked "Closed" from 225 must be, the northern end of Brook St. I took it from Maple as an alternate way to 225. Very pretty too. It hits East St so that a left heads into Carlisle Center.
We saw four other tandems today, plus a fifth as we were driving out of Bedford.
The view from lunch at Heart Pond, South Chelmsford, a hoppin' place today and a lovely local park and beach:
A break for frozen smoothie, carried on an ice pack in the panniers of course:

14 miles on the Minuteman at the end of the day, warm and breezy, but not quite as much of either as earlier this afternoon, when we tried out the (relatively) new Spy Pond canoe rental service that the Arlington Recreation Department has organized on the weekends. That was fun, and of course is steps from the Minuteman. Getting back on topic, this afternoon's ride was one of those where I chiefly noticed fellow trail users: sometimes their bodies, which in this weather were generally on display in all their morphological variation (mine, too, of course, it's only fair); sometimes their minds, as manifested chiefly by their behavior... a certain amount of morphological variation there, too, and not quite as much discreet veiling as perhaps some thought they were employing. Oh well... Zappa has a song for that, as for so many other things...
Good news: the suspended vine egg is still bobbing resiliently from its tree. Bad news: the big willow in Arlington Heights sustained serious damage in last week's storm(s), and is wounded and diminished.

I linked up to Route 16 and took that through Wellesley to Holliston by way of route 27 and a different but nonetheless enchanted, Woodland St. to Mill to Fiske in Sherborn. I did do a side trip on Nason Rd to pass by a colleague's house. On Nason a well organized, tight paceline of about 10 riders (but not wearing uniform team kits) passed by.
My first rest stop was on Rte 27 just before Woodland St. One of the myriad joys of a New England ride is that a shaded stone wall is an excellent rest stop.

I know how other riders who travel with " sweeties," eat well on the road; my "bachelor biker" picnic is pretty sparse.
July 13, 2014 004.jpg
Then onto Route 126 down to Medway. I was feeling sluggish and did another stop at the Fatima shrine on 126, which had opened restrooms. From Medway I did a loop in Franklin down Pond which was residential suburban; across treeless, heavy commercial suburban Route 140 for about a mile, then up Union to Lincoln.
That last segment looked really easy to find on the map, but even at the corner of Main Street which apparently became Lincoln, I had to ask directions. The man pointed about a block down the road and said just stay to the right of that red brick schoolhouse, and indeed that's what it was, built in 1833. Lincoln was pleasantly almost rural back to Medway, but with a patched up road surface.

So...who here is planning to ride the Massbike Century/Metric/32mile'r on Saturday the 26th, either as or not as a participant in the 50+ forum's Annual 50+ Ride?
My sweetie really, really, really wants to do the metric, starting at 9AM. Some of that route looks to be interesting, especially the run up to Harvard at about the 2/3rds point. Some of the rest we've ridden before, and it is very pretty. Any other takers?

I live in Bristol, R.I. and ride often in the entire area from Little Compton to, Tiverton, Westport to North and South Dartmouth. It is my favorite area to ride with little motor vehicle traffic and pretty country roads. There are some state roads but it's mostly county or town roads. One of the members of the Narragansett Bay Wheelmen calls it "our sacred area". On clear days and on the segments that are along Buzzards Bay, there are awesome views of the Bay with Cuttyhunk in the distance and many sailboats near and hull down just over the horizon.
This past week-end, the club ride began in Middleborough and went NE toward Duxbury. I was surprised that being so close to Boston there were miles and miles of fine riding through beautiful forrest.
And I can lend a bike to whoever can't bring their own. All classic/vintage, all in good shape, and covering a range of performance levels.

Ten miles on the Minuteman before dinner. All the big weather was booming through to the North and East, and the weather in Arlington and Lexington was warm and muggy. Arlington cops were on what appeared to be a fact-finding mission at the Water Street and Mill Street crossings, greeting trail users cordially and paying attention to how they crossed the road; more will come of this later, I expect, Arlington is trying to sort out a series of accidents involving trail users and motorists. A couple of members of the new APD bicycle corps were rolling on the trail. This is something of an improvement on the electric scooters they used to employ there.
After the last of the storms blew through, went for a late-afternoon ride on the Minuteman, through the puddles and steamy air.
Lake Fottler once again gets the grand prize for grandest puddle. Good day for fenders.
Yes, it's vandalism, but it's charismatic vandalism...
There was apparently some significant flooding in places, leaving alluvial deposits--sand, sticks, mulch, rocks. The most hazardous was a field of fist-sized gravel, washed out of the bed of a drainage ditch in Mal's back lot.
Wrapped up the ride with a beautiful sunset organizing itself in my rear-view mirror.

Metro Boston culinary bicycle touring includes what we carry, buy, nibble, chew, wolf down and inhale.
We travelled by car to the Woods Hole ferry and cycled past car traffic for three humid days in Martha's Vineyard. We carried clothes, wine, books and on some hills felt like I included a rock collection in 38 year old, no name panniers. We took our host out to dinner at the Beach Plum, a local farm to table restaurant. Our bike ride from Vineyard Haven to Menemsha recommended by Google cycling included bike lanes, dirt roads and longer sections on State, Old County, Middle and on the way back in search of fewer hill via North Rd. We toured, shopped and found almost all traffic were bike friendly. We were very impressed with beautiful farm fields, conserved land and good work by the MV Ag Society. Stone walls and rolling fields reminded us of English Farms. mv map.jpgdirt rd.jpgbookshop.jpg

I've made a couple trips by cycle from Boston to Woods Hole for weekends with friends in Oak Bluffs, then got a ride home. Rte 28 on early Saturday mornings was pretty tolerable, with a wide enough shoulder. After Wareham, the roads got a bit hairier, and alternative routes other than Rte 6 were pretty complicated to plot out.
The ride on high over the Bourne Bridge was not pleasant for me, and my eyes were entirely focused on the roadway directly in front of my tire. Once on the Cape there were pleasant side roads (photo 1). On my last trip, I accidentally discovered the Shining Sea Bikeway to Wood's Hole for the last 10 miles (2 and 3). Total distance from Boston was about 80 miles. Unfortunately our most gracious hostess passed away this year.

However we have ridden on MV a few times, decades ago. As I recall there was a bike bikeway loop around the center of the island through what must have been park or conservation land. The trouble was, it wasn't very good to ride, one of those old-style bike paths where no engineer thought about turn radius or grade. Instead they just put down pavement along what might even have been a somewhat demanding walking path. Still, it made for a fun day, with an eye on the ferry schedule of course.

NEWPORT � Several thousand people turned out Friday and Saturday for the 25th annual Newport Pig Cooking Contest, a fundraiser held at Newport Town Park.
This year, 78 cooks came out to compete � and most were from Newport.
Competitor Chris Garner said there are plenty of secrets to cooking a pig, but he would only reveal one.
�If you�re lookin�, you ain�t cookin�,� Garner said, advising against the temptation to constantly raise a cooker�s lid.
Garner placed second last year.
Doris Oglesby of Newport started the event 35 years ago when she went to the town�s mayor and asked for a donation for a local developmental center.
�I asked for $5,000 and they got some people together and gave me $15,000 and it�s been going ever since, a little bit bigger and better every year,� she said. �It�s just great when you look at how many lives have been touched by this money that they�ve raised. No telling how many hours of volunteer work has been put into this every year.�
Ken Davis of Newport said the event fell on the perfect day.
�Wonderful people, wonderful cause, wonderful event, wonderful day,� Davis said.

Make sure your heating system is working optimally so heat is not lost in the output, which will increase heating bills. However, using the existing heating system is not the only way to heat your home.
Installined Heating System
Home heating systems are typically either gas or electric, both of which have pros and cons. Heating an entire house can be rather expensive, especially if you are generally only using one or two rooms. And with the rising price of gas you can never be exactly sure how much your bill will be.
The fireplace has been around for hundreds of years and is probably the least expensive way to heat a room. This is especially true if the fireplace burns wood rather than gas or electric. While it won't heat the entire house, a fireplace is your cheapest option for a single room. But if the temperature is under the freezing point, turn up your thermostat so that water pipes don't freeze.
Portable Heaters
Another way to save money on heating your home is with the use of portable heating units. These small units can be purchased from just about any large retail store such as Target or Walmart. They are electric and can be plugged into a wall outlet. The unit will constantly generate heat, and most units can have the temperature adjusted. They can also be placed in any part of the house, so if you are only spending time in your living room you may just want to leave the heating system off and turn on one or two portable heaters. You'll stay warm and save money.
