I saw a photo of a titanium folding bike with 26 inch wheels.
I could not find any info on this bike. Reliable?
I saw a photo of a titanium folding bike with 26 inch wheels.
I could not find any info on this bike. Reliable?
What is the locking mechanism on that frame?
That looks like it is more designed to be disassembled than folded.
Ahhh... so you take out 2 screws.
Possibly loosen 2 screws.
Take off 2 wheels.
And then it all folds up.
Perhaps similar in concept to the S&S Couplers.
However, this looks like a good cabling design.
It still looks nice if put together with good components.
several years ago I saw pictures of a soft tail MTB modified to do that and converted to a Hard tail when assembled again.
The Shock under the top tube was replaced . Cyclists day job was in a Machine Shop .
Very interesting indeed! Sooo many questions... Why the dinky chainring? Fenders? Rack?
Looks the bee's knees.
Helix bike is claimed to fold smaller than any other
Thanks to gizmag for the excellent article, and thanks to the readers for your comments!
I wanted to respond to a few of the points that were brought up:
"So where does a 24" tire fit inside a 23" space?"
Good question. Bicycle industry wheel sizes are mostly inaccurate. This is because many different tires sizes can fit on the same rim. In our case we are using a 1.5" wide tire on a 20" dia rim (bead seat diameter), which brings the overall diameter to about 23". If we used a bigger tire, such as a 2.25", the diameter would increase. To try and keep it simple, the bike industry calls it a 24" wheel. Regardless, you may notice that the seat is still slightly higher than the wheels, this will be the same height for production making the height 23" as claimed. Source: Tire Sizing Systems
About the slot on the fork and steerer tube:
The fork and steerer are of adequate thickness and the slots are not at high stress points. We've done extensive simulation and real world testing and have confirmed it is strong and safe.
About the weight:
Our claim of 21lbs is total bicycle weight including pedals. It is common for bicycle companies to post weights without pedals, which may or may not be the case here. Without an actual hands-on review of either bike, the numbers are just manufacturers claims. Even so, the author brings up a valid point and we hope to make good on our claim for production!
About the price:
Folding bikes are generally more expensive because of the hinges and locks. Helix will be made out of titanium, which is significantly more expensive than steel, aluminum and carbon. With that said, it is still very competitively priced in comparison to other titanium bikes, folding or not.
About world's smallest claim:
Based on the numbers provided for the Brompton (585mm x 545mm x 270mm or 23" x 21.5" x 10.6"), the total volume would be 5241.7". Helix is 5175". The main differentiator being the width measurement, helix is slightly thinner, this makes it easy to get through doors and other tight paces where height is less of an issue.
About rigidity:
Rigidity will be one of our biggest selling points. Helix uses a patent pending tube-in-tube locking device that is very rigid.
About accessories:
Helix will have mounts for mud guards, racks, lights and more. There will be a unique carrying option as well, but it will be available after our first production run. Stay tuned! "
I just think when the kickstarter opens up this bike DESERVES and NEEDS it's very own thread! haven't seen something this fresh and new in a loooong time!
The Helix looks very interesting. No rear brake on the prototype. Website indicates disc brakes. Pictures show what appears to be two cables coming off the right brake lever/shift lever with housing going into the frame.
I hope he puts a larger chainring on it.
Very different from your average folder

The Seinfeld Syndrome is more common than Carpal Tunnel and, as with the latter, it arises from the repetitive movements of modern life. Its treatment is spiritual, but organized religion generally misreads it, viewing it as a cluster of moral faults rather than a muffled but anguished cry from the depths of the soul.
Afflicted with what sociologists dub the "New Insecurity," young people feel hungry even though they live in a world of plenty. They cannot quite find their place or their true voice. In short, a sitcom in which nothing seems to happen, there is no story line, and one-liners substitute for conversations that never concern duty, honor, or any sense that dying to the self out of love or sacrifice might bring them life.
Religious leaders and other professionally righteous find them a target of opportunity for jeremiads against their attitudes and seeming self-absorption.
They accuse them of not being Tom Brokaw's "Greatest Generation" whose members grew up in the Depression, fought World War II and built American prosperity, all in a modest, dutiful and quiet style.
These adjectives are not applied to today's young people who might belong to chromosome generations, labeled X and Y by marketeers eager to sell them an identity along with their footwear, clothing, and music.
Their parents wonder whether their children, some wading into and some climbing out of the Rio Grande of Thirtysomething, will ever be tested by Providence, Fate, or Bad Luck, and how they will react to such an ordeal.
These young people are, nonetheless, having a religious experience that is unnamed even though it is obviously a spiritual crisis.
Holy Week is Everyweek for Everyperson and its rhythms are Everybody's inheritance, including the young people who, lacking an external trial of war or want, bear within themselves a variant of the same human suffering that every generation has experienced. Its mystery has gone largely unrecognized by the faiths that could identify it as a challenge to their spirituality rather than evidence of their surrender to secularity.
Their test may be likened to the uncharted preparation we find in the lives of heroes and prophets and in what are termed Jesus' "hidden years," that period when he was also about to turn 30.
When nothing seems to be going on, a destiny is forming for each of today's young people. Its pain may be found in their lack of ease with all that is easeful. Their unheard question is not "How can I be born again?" but "How can I be born at all and become fully alive?"
Dante speaks of Aeneas, the first half of whose life passed before "he hardened himself to enter alone with the Sybil into hell and search for the soul of his father." What better describes this puzzled generation's quest than to find the spirit of their fathers, to learn, as Jesus did, that he had to be about the work of his father?
So Dante, at 35, felt that he had reached a high point in the arch of his life only to find himself "in the middle of the road of life ... in a dark wood alone." There, he tells us, he experienced the crucifixion, death, descent into hell and passage through Purgatory to Paradise before he found his way to serve the world. In Joyce's "Ulysses," Stephen Daedalus associated this high noon of his life with crucifixion as well. "Come," he writes, "I thirst."
This journey of descent into hell and ascension into heaven is applied in the creed to Jesus who, on the eve of his passion, found himself in the dark wood of Gethsemane, alone, His closest friends asleep with no grasp of how he would shortly complete his work and life.
Young people live in shadows as deep as those of Gethsemane. They are headed, each to a Calvary, as have all men and women before them, and the tests in which they will die a death in order to find the life they now long for.
As uncomprehending as the high priests of another time, many religious leaders call them out of this wood. They should instead meet them there and name for them its redemptive elements. Why do religious leaders so often sleep outside the Garden when their calling, as well as that of the younger generation, can only be found within it?

" Absolutely unbelievable. It was like staying in a resort! The hostel is a (very cheap) 30 minute train journey outside of the city, which would be a con if not for all the benefits of its location in Zagarolo! Staff are all so relaxed, friendly and knowledgeable about Rome, and the bar/social areas made it so easy to meet some other travellers and organise trips into the city. Can't thank Wiki enough for the quality of our stay and completely intend to visit again as soon as possible! "- Blemon

On the Legal Importance of Viewing Genes as Code
On June 13, 2013 the Supreme Court issued its opinion in the much–awaited Myriad case, which challenged the validity of patents on isolated human genes. The Court held that the isolated genetic sequences claimed in Myriad's patents did not satisfy the inventive threshold for patentability, although the complementary DNA (cDNA) claimed in the patents did. Prof. Annemarie Bridy examines critical elements of the case with a focus on the extent to which the outcome turned on a single conceptual choice: When assessing patentability, should the legal analysis focus on the isolated DNA's chemical structure or its information-coding function? — Published June 16, 2013

Negotiating Justice: The New Constitutional Spectrum of Plea Bargaining
Ken Strutin focuses on the impact of the Supreme Court's decisions in Missouri v. Frye and Lafler v. Cooper, and the upcoming appeal in Burt v. Titlow in regard to placing plea bargaining front and center on the national stage. As a result, they have divided practitioners and scholars into two camps: (1) those who consider the rulings to be a new statement in the law of plea bargaining and right to effective assistance of counsel; and (2) those who believe they are only a restatement of established principles. These cases have generated interest in the centrality and regulation of plea bargaining, the ethics and effectiveness of defense counsel as negotiator, the oversight of prosecutors regarding charging decisions, sentence recommendations and pre-trial discovery, and the scope of federal habeas corpus review and remedies. Ken's article is a comprehensive annotated guide to high court opinions, scholarship and commentary regarding the themes addressed by the Supreme Court in Lafler and Frye as well as their implications for the administration of criminal justice. — Published May 19, 2013

Copyrights, Fundamental Rights, and the Constitution
The recent Supreme Court decision, Kirtsaeng v. John Wiley & Sons, addresses fair use and the "first sale" doctrine, upon whose protection libraries, used-book dealers, technology companies, consumer-goods retailers, and museums have long relied. Professor Annmarie Bridy's commentary focuses on the position that intellectual property rights in general and copyrights in particular are important, and when their scope is circumscribed to ensure the existence of a robust public domain, they benefit society. However important IP rights are, though – and reasonable people disagree pretty vigorously about that – they are not fundamental in the Constitutional sense. — Published April 28, 2013

The European Council consists of the Heads of State, or Government, of the Member States, together with the President of the Council and the President of the Commission. The European Council provides the Union with the necessary impetus for its development and defines its general political directions and priorities. It does not exercise legislative functions. The administrative support to both institutions is ensured by the General Secretariat of the Council or GSC. The Central Library holds over 100,000 monographs and EU publications.

Canine Assisted Investigation in the Borderlands of Privacy
Ken Strutin brings attention and focus to the fact that dog detection at airports for contraband, in traffic stops for narcotics, at fire scenes for accelerants and at suspect lineups are playing an increasingly important role in criminal investigations. At the same time, Ken documents that the thresholds of olfactory detection continue to test the limits of privacy, probable cause and due process. Recently, the U.S. Supreme Court decided two cases involving animal assisted investigation. The fallout from these decisions will add to the evolving body of case law in federal and state courts as they continue to sort out the constitutional limits of this type of investigation. — Published April 6, 2013

When judges, jurors and the Internet collide
In the past, attorney Nicole L. Black has described misguided attempts by judges to excessively penalize jurors for using social media or the Internet during the pendency of trials.

Lawyers are increasingly shifting their day to day operations to applications and operations that leverage the convenience and affordability offered by the concept of a paperless office.

Deep Web Research and Discovery Resources 2013
Marcus P.

Some of the more comprehensive search engines have written algorithms to search the deeper portions of the world wide web by attempting to find files such as .pdf, .docx, .xls, ppt, .ps. and others. These files are predominately used by businesses to communicate within their organization or to disseminate topical information and work product to customers and potential clients.

- Exquisitely shot but problematic"The International" is about an evil bank and begs the question; do these fricken things come in any other way? It's a fairly interesting story that got a major boost from current events last September once we learned that banks actually do have shadier dealings than expected. Only the ironic part now is will people be willing or even able to pay to see this movie. My recommendation would be wait for the DVD. Director Tim Tykwer ("Run Lola Run") does a decent directing job and for a while "The International" crackles with suspense but soon the interesting idea posed by the script, by Eric Singer, just fizzles out.
Clive Owen plays Louis Salinger, an Interpol agent whose been trailing the business practices of one of the biggest banks in the world, the IBBC, for what seems like years. Just when he manages to find witnesses, they either end up dead or manipulated into silence. He teams up with Manhattan District Attorney Eleanor Whitman (Naomi Watts) to bring the bank to justice but she's getting added pressure to shut this whole investigation down because the two are coming up with next to no evidence. The bank's trail of money, used for everything from arms deals to murder, sends Salinger and Whitman globe-trotting from Berlin to Milan to New York to Istanbul but one dead end could shut the case down for good.
I'm usually not very cognizant of camera shots so the fact that i'm saying Tykwer really makes you think about perfect camera movement and angles really says a lot for what he does here. Not only does he start the suspense up early with strong verbal encounters/hard stares between characters but the way he frames and pans along the beautiful design of places like the Guggenheim Museum and the IBBC headquarters or the ancient buildings, narrow, bustling streets, and rooftops of Instanbul is fantastic. Nearly every scene has a lively visual quality. His one mistake actually comes with the movie's one big action sequence. It's a bloody shootout inside the Guggenheim but it just seems messy and hard to make out, a Paul Greengrass imitation without the exciting energy of a "Bourne" movie.
The screenplay by Singer is more than partly to blame. His story starts out well, catching our attention with the bank's deceptive and shady practices and building up a healthy dose of paranoia as well. The problem is the screenplay then lets itself off far too easily. Instead of focusing on how the bank creates slaves-to-debt and how the whole process works, the movie just vaguely and complicatedly brushes over those issues in favor of lazy, generic plotting. Salinger and Whitman soon find that their best option is pinning a murder on IBBC, just you would think a major bank could do better than hiring such an easily track-able killer. And where the movie really goes wrong is the conclusion, which doesn't go into how the bank is actually taken down as much as it just satisfies the audience's need for bloodlust. You can tell that no one knew how to end this thing.
Casting Clive Owen is a good idea. He brings a determined, serious demeanor to Salinger though with the type of roles he has played recently, you wonder why this guy turned down James Bond. He seems like a natural for it. The rest of the cast struggles with poor character development. Naomi Watts gets a role so useless that it could have easily been played by my grandma. Armin Mueller Stahl shows up as a former communist whose lost his way and now works with the bank as a consultant or something. He gets one well written scene, going man-o-e-man-o with Owen but otherwise not that many impressions are made by the cast. Unfortunately for the movie, try as Tykwer and Owen might, it also fails to make much of an impression as well.show full movie reviewsource6/10
- Great mystery/investigative thriller, beautifully shot by Tom TykwerI'm a fan of German director Tom Tykwer (Run Lola Run, The Princess And The Warrior, Heaven, Perfume: The Story Of A Murderer). The story seemed like a different direction for him, so this was a must see for me.
First, the only problem I had with the film is the screenplay, some contrived lines, especially in the third act, stick out. The dialogue really tries to force the theme down the viewers throat. Other than that, everything else was top notch. The way the story is set up and fleshed out was engrossing to me. I like a film that lets the viewer figure it out for themselves. It's got a classic mystery set up, where the viewer is in the shoes of the protagonist, we get to figure it out along with him as he unravels it.
Clive Owen and Naomi Watts were decent, but not really stretching there acting legs here. The cinematography and locations were beautiful, filmed in a neo-noirish blue/grey color palette with lots of wide angle shots of the characters dwarfed by the urban architecture. The shootout was very well done and more realistic and grittier than the usual action set piece.
It actually reminded me of a Michael Mann film.show full movie reviewsource8/10
- Excellent thrillerNo complaints at all about this gripping movie. The plot is original compared to the usual cops versus bad guys trash that often gets pumped out. The story centers around an international bank that makes its profits by supplying weapons to combatants in the various conflicts that cover the planet. Clive Owen is an Interpol guy trying to bring the bank down. The script is excellent, the acting is very good and the photography is above par for this kind of film. Excellent direction. This movie doesn't try too hard, is free of the cliches that often serve instead of fresh ideas and has a great shoot-out where the surprises and action keep you on the edge of your seat without trying to overwhelm with gore and jerky camera work.
Go see it, you'll enjoy it.show full movie reviewsource8/10
- Worth a theater ticketNo spoilers.
I pretty much had zero expectations for this film. I'd seen an ad or two and it looked conventional at best, clumsy at worst. The previews certainly don't do it justice. It starts smart and mean and doesn't let up. Not everyone will enjoy the unrelenting mood, but I found the picture intense and the rest of the audience in the theater seemed to agree. It helps that Clive Owen is believable as the protagonist and is highly watchable. A lesser actor in the role would have made the film much less effective. Armin Mueller-Stahl also adds credibility and depth. Other supporting actors were, for the most part, strong and gritty. There was probably pressure for a female lead, so in Noami Watts's defense, this is probably part of the reason why the character feels so irrelevant.
I'm happy anytime that a slick international thriller has some brains and isn't completely predictable, so I found the picture highly entertaining, if imperfect. It it flawed? Most certainly. But if you walk into the theater without pretensions, you'll probably be as entertained as I was. And I do think a theater visit is warranted, for the photography mentioned by previous reviewers, if not for the Guggenheim scene alone. I think it's dangerous to trump up a scene too much, because it inevitably leads to disappointment. But having no idea about what was coming... suffice to say, I didn't find the directing anything other than thrilling.show full movie reviewsource8/10
- Better film than critics give it creditI was persuaded by my brother to see this film. I wanted to see another one but since he was visiting I agreed with his choice, and was surprised to find myself liking the film very much. OK, the script could be a little better, but the direction and acting were very good, even down to the supporting players such as the actors who portrayed the two NYC cops who assist the main character, Interpol agent Sallinger (Clive Owens), once the story moved to NYC. What I particularly liked was the way the story was told cinematically rather than through a lot of verbose dialogue. It seemed to me like a Bourne thriller for adults. No kinetic hand-held camera action, but smooth visually appealing cinematic exposition the way Hitchcock did it in his prime. Even the closing credits were used effectively to give a rather downbeat denouement to the film.
In short, an entertaining movie that alleviated the February blues.show full movie reviewsource7/10

Showtime's Brit-horror series Penny Dreadful returns on May 1st to the joy of faithful viewers not-nearly-everywhere. For such a smart and well-acted show, the horror soap opera featuring fictional heavy-hitters Victor Frankenstein, his monster, Dorian Gray, and the Wolfman doesn't get quite the expected amount of buzz it deserves. It probably doesn't help that the show airs the same night as HBO's powerhouse Game of Thrones. Watch Thrones live if you hate getting spoiled on Twitter, but save some room on your DVR for a show that's bloodier, spookier, and steeped in much more literal—and literary—sexual politics.
Here's a taste of what you're missing. (With a few unavoidable spoilers ahead.)
Yes, but would Khal Moro's bloodrider still sleep with her?
That very unexpected ending was subversive for more than one reason. And it confirmed something about Melisandre that was only hinted at and and gives us a new perspective on a character who's been working her magic since well before the second season.

Is it just me or did this hiatus feel really, really long? Sure, Game of Thrones' sixth season premiere is airing a few weeks later into April than usual, but a lot has happened on my TV screen since last June. I've binged on all seasons of Orphan Black, Better Call Saul, Peaky Blinders, and Daredevil. And I've watched new shows like Jessica Jones, Hap and Leonard, and gave The Expanse a try. Add to this my regular shows like The Walking Dead and the final (sniffle) season of Hannibal and, wow, I watch too much TV.
Which is to say, I needed a reminder on what happened to the considerable cast of Game of Thrones. Hint: a lot of them are dead.
This year is rich with anticipated single-author collections from some of the most talented voices working in horror, dark fantasy, and the hazy spaces between genre and literary fiction. If some of these releases seem late in review here, it is not for their lack of readability, but more because there was always just one more title to squeeze in before the liminal borders of the seasons themselves shifted.
As most of these excellent reads come, as they so often do, from smaller presses, you also might have missed them.
[A collapse of horses, a vegetarian, Oscar Wilde robots, and cosmic conifer…]
With his last release, the short story collection Three Moments of an Explosion, barely six months behind him, China Miéville starts off the year with a brand-new novella.
Don't be deceived by the shorter length, though; This Census-Taker packs a lot of challenging ideas into a slim story. In all honesty, writing a review of this novella after only reading it once feels exceedingly difficult. There is a hypnotic, nightmarish feel to the loose events contained herein, which is as appropriate as it is harrowing as we watch the narrator's traumatic story unfold. The boy—sometimes "I" or even "you"—lives on a steep hill, across from another hill, connected by a bridge that contains a town. The novella opens with the boy fleeing his home after witnessing his mother kill his father. Only then he believes his father killed his mother, but there is no physical proof. Yet there is damning behavior suggesting the father, a kind of magical tradesman, has been working in the service of an older evil. There's a hole in the hill, you see, where the father delivers murdered creatures and customers, and very likely, the narrator's mother.
Yes, we still like the Weird stuff.
Much like Michael Kelly in his foreword to the Year's Best Weird Volume 2, I don't want to rehash last year's review with a definition of weird fiction. Weird fiction seems to become more popular as a genre with each year, so perhaps that's not necessary anymore. Year's Best Weird is a topper to what has already been a strong year for uncanny fiction: new, acclaimed story collections from luminaries Kelly Link and China Miéville made it to many year's best lists, new novels from Gemma Files, Molly Tanzer and Paul Tremblay brought the weird to novel-length works, and re-releases of under-appreciated classics from Thomas Ligotti, Charles Beaumont and Ray Russell saw the light of day. Undertow Press itself is a great home for the Weird and its most recent original anthology, Aickman's Heirs, will surely find some of its stories in all kinds of best-of anthologies in 2016.
Maybe, as was suggested at the Weird fiction panel at World Fantasy Con in October, the Weird really is poised to be the Next Big Thing.
Halloween is over, but there's still plenty of time to reach for a creepy read! Whether your taste runs to the psychological, the spectral, the gothic, or the weird, here's a list of five new and forthcoming titles that you may not want to curl up with so much as cower from. Pumpkin spice latte optional…
If my local theater is anything to go by, Back to the Future II had a higher per screen box office take this weekend than Vin Diesel's latest stab at a new fantasy franchise. The Last Witch Hunter reads like a nerd marketing dream: Vin Diesel LARPing with a real flaming sword, Frodo Baggins and Ygritte from Game of Thrones as his sidekicks, Michael Caine as Vin Diesel's very own Michael Caine, pretty CGI and witches. It's Halloween. Who doesn't like a good, creepy witch movie at Halloween? It's a no-brainer, right?
And that, of course, is the problem with The Last Witch Hunter.
What is it about the American West that continues to inspire? There's the romanticized notion of expansion, the simplistic morality of white hats and black hats, of cowboys vs. Indians. And there's the post-modern Western that does not gloss over the era's exploitation and violence; all the birth pains of a new nation. Then there is the Weird West, a genre-hopping category that uses a lot of the Western window-dressing—gunslingers, railroads, Pinkertons—and mashes them up with cosmic horror, alternate histories of American icons, and a vast landscape of cruel promise and harsh awe. To celebrate the release of a new batch of novels set in the Weird West world of the RPG Deadlands, beginning with Jonathan Maberry's Deadlands: Ghostwalkers, it's time to saddle up for a ride into a booming frontier of creepy thrill.
Not all of it is written, not all of it is American, but it's all definitely rich in the weird.
["Zombies, tentacles, gunslingers and an awful lot of Australians…"]
Short story collections can be divisive for an author's fans. For some people, I imagine the feeling is comparable to waiting for your favorite band to put out a new full-length album and instead getting a live EP; the big hits are represented, but you're missing the depth, the had-to-be-there energy, and the newness to pour over and speculate about.
But most authors aren't as skilled at writing short stories as they are at writing novels. Three Moments of an Explosion, the latest short story collection from China Miéville showcases not only what is so impressive about Miéville's talent but what can be so enjoyable about the short form itself.

I loved this episode. Both Lafiamma and Lundy are not happy to be working with Estaban again, but they understand him more now, and learning to work with each other is interesting.
LaFiamma and Lundy are trying to help solve a stolen baby case that Estaban brings them. they can't quite make all the pieces fit, and all three of them butt heads.
Estaban is so concerned with returning the baby to it's rightful parents, and L&L want to work within the confines of the laws they have to uphold, and still get the right results.
The ending scene where Lundy has manipulated both sets of parents to be in the same place at the same time, so the adoptive parents see the tragedy of the birthparents is really emotional.
And later when they are helping to host the orphanage Christmas party, and get the adoptive parents there to see children who need help is really sentimental--and then they help Estaban get a job with Houston PD and he becomes a regular cast member. This one is a good one.moreless

I was wondering if I should equip the male with a Power Bracer. I know Power Bracer passes down its holders Attack IV's, but I am not sure how it works exactly. Does Power Bracer ONLY grantee that its best stat will be its attack? Or does it pass down the parents attack stat exactly how it is, "fantastic" which means a pokemon will not hatch with a "it can't better" attack unless the parent too has a "can't be better" attack stat. In other words, all of thee eggs will have a "fantastic" attack stat only.
The Power Bracer simply guarantees that the holder's Attack IV will be passed down.

The devil is in the details and with the Lace and Mesh Bandeau, Apron and G-String by René Rofé, it's hard to say which detail will make him feel the most devilish tonight. Perhaps it's the criss-cross ribbon bow at the bust of the bandeau, begging to be pulled.
And if you liked that one, you'll love what's in store next...we cross our hearts. Two sweet bows, one for the top and one for the lace apron, tie (and untie) so you can undress to kill without a lot of fuss. A matching g-string completes the look that is sure to put that look in his eye.

text: I kind of liked this video, but I'm not sure the Dutch experience has anything useful to offer to the western hemisphere. For one thing, the Dutch had a much more intact remaining bicycle culture when they tried to revive it. This also happened in the 1970's, which was a time before the "conservative" elements in western culture developed their now-infamous ability to ferociously shout down anyone who disagrees with them. The most telling moment for me was when they get to the part about the large numbers of children dying in traffic being the element that tips the scales in favor of bicycle infrastructure. In the US, this sadly would never happen. If children get injured or killed by cars, motorists are not to be blamed, and certainly not our infrastructure; instead, politicos and the media go after the horrid parents who foolishly think it might be okay to let their children ride a bike or walk somewhere.

Boozing On The Sly: The Secret Hairbrush Flask
This is a 6-oz flask that looks like a hairbrush so you can sneak booze into clubs and sporting events and not have to pay $16 for a drink. I can see it now: *hands bag to security at baseball game* "Excuse me sir, but why do you have a hairbrush in here?" For brushing my hair, bro, why else? "But you're bald." What if I told you I just like the way it feels on my head? "It sounds like there's liquid in here." *snatches brush flask back, chugs it* YOU'LL NEVER TAKE ME ALIVE! *trips trying to jump turnstile, knocks myself out, wakes up in parking lot between two cars* Did I catch a ball?!
Hit the jump for one more shot(!!!1).
Thanks to Scott, who sneaks booze into events the old fashioned way: already in his belly. Classic!

Why was the unmarried Marv Albert fired from is job last year? Because, if you recall, the nationally renowned sportscaster engaged in some bizarre sex and then lied about it, muddying the image of his employers and the sports events he covered.
Consider that the very married Bill Clinton has also engaged in some eccentric sex, and with a woman not his wife -- and that it has also been said "the president of the United States is the distillation of the American character and spirit into one man."
Doesn't this raise a scary question? Are we Americans now holding our sportscasters to a higher standard of conduct than our president?

Getting Blake Griffin: A trade? It could happen
If hoping, wishing, praying and keeping your fingers crossed isn't enough to bring Oklahoma City the No. 1 overall pick Tuesday night during the NBA Draft Lottery, there is one last possibility that could put Blake Griffin in a Thunder uniform. A trade. It's the unlikeliest of possibilities. Only twice in NBA history has a team with the first pick traded the selection. But, hey, it could happen, especially since there seems to be a few teams in lottery land in position to part with Griffin should they land the top spot. But any hope of the Thunder brokering a trade is contingent on Oklahoma City jumping to the second overall pick and selecting Spanish point guard Ricky Rubio, the consensus No. 2 prospect if he stays in the draft. Here are the best destinations for the No. 1 pick if it doesn't fall to the Thunder.
Sacramento Kings→Where they're slotted to pick: First, with a 25 percent chance at No. 1. →Why they could trade Blake: They spent the past two lottery picks on big men Spencer Hawes and Jason Thompson. They have an overpaid, underachieving point guard in Beno Udrih and have owners who are in the entertainment business. In Sacramento, Rubio's flashy playmaking — think former King Jason Williams — could be a bigger draw than Griffin's electrifying dunks. And a playmaker like Rubio could get the most out of the current talent the Kings already have. →Odds: 4.5 percent.
Los Angeles Clippers→Where they're slotted to pick: Third, with a 17.7 percent chance at No. 1. →Why they could trade Blake: The Clippers' openness to shipping injury-prone point guard Baron Davis back to Golden State has grown from a whisper to a roar. If the Clippers can undo the $65 million mistake they made last summer, they're likely to do so in a heartbeat. And Rubio could serve as more than a sufficient young replacement. L.A. also has a talented frontcourt with Chris Kaman (although injury prone), Zach Randolph (although a headache) and Marcus Camby (although aging). →Odds: 2.1 percent.
Minnesota Timberwolves→Where they're slotted to pick: Fifth, with a 7.6 percent chance at No. 1. →Why they could trade Blake: They retooled their frontcourt by trading Kevin Garnett to Boston for Al Jefferson and O.J. Mayo to Memphis for Kevin Love. They're set up front. Meanwhile, their point guards, Randy Foye and Sebastian Telfair, are inconsistent and don't appear to be the long term solution. →Odds: 3.4 percent.
New York Knicks→Where they're slotted to pick: Eighth, with a 2.8 percent chance at No. 1. →Why they could trade Blake: The Knicks already have a double-double machine on their roster in David Lee, who just turned 26 last month. Chris Duhon, despite averaging a career-high 7.2 assists last year, is better suited off the bench. And you have to believe coach Mike D'Antoni covets a crafty playmaker like Rubio after seeing what Steve Nash did to make his system hum. →Odds: 0.2 percent.

Additional Information
Important InformationAbout Asociación Arariwa
Asociación Arariwa is a large non-governmental organization that started offering microcredit in 1994 to improve the quality of life, skills and equity of the population in the rural Cusco region of Peru. Arariwa serves the southern Andean provinces of Peru, and is distinguished by its efforts to reach the very poor, who often live in isolated rural areas. Arariwa fosters village banking, supports savings accounts, promotes access to education, and empowers women entrepreneurs (who make up 78% of its borrowers).
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

EXCLUSIVE: Man Utd to be offered £10m Chelsea target Fabio Coentrao
MAN UNITED will be offered Real Madrid misfit Fabio Coentrao this summer.
United's top left-back target is Southampton's £30m-rated Luke Shaw but Coentrao, 26, is far cheaper at £10m.
Real have decided to sell the Portugal defender, who came close to joining United on loan last summer.
That move fell through but Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti will now let Coentrao go.
Chelsea were also chasing Coentrao but their interest has cooled following the good form of Cesar Azpilicueta.
United are also watching Coentrao's Portugal team-mate Carlos Mane. Sporting winger Mane, 20, has a £5m release clause.

PHOENIX - Arizona voters have approved a measure that will legalize medical marijuana use in the state for people with chronic or debilitating diseases.
Final vote tallies showed Saturday that Proposition 203 won by a tiny margin of just 4,341 votes out of more than 1.67 million votes counted. The measure had started out losing on Election Day by about 7,200 votes, but the gap gradually narrowed in the following 10 days.
"Now begins the very hard work of implementing this program in the way it was envisioned, with very high standards," said Andrew Myers, campaign manager for the Arizona Medical Marijuana Policy Project. "We really believe that we have an opportunity to set an example to the rest of the country on what a good medical marijuana program looks like."
Arizona is the 15th state to approve a medical marijuana law. California was the first in 1996, and 13 other states and Washington, D.C., have since followed suit.
The Arizona measure will allow patients with diseases including cancer, HIV/AIDS, Hepatitis C and any other "chronic or debilitating" disease that meets guidelines to buy 21/2 ounces of marijuana every two weeks or grow plants.
The patients must get a recommendation from their doctor and register with the Arizona Department of Health Services. The law allows for no more than 124 marijuana dispensaries in the state. After ballots are canvassed Nov. 29, the state has 120 days before the law goes into effect.
Backers of Proposition 203 have argued that thousands of patients faced "a terrible choice" of suffering with a serious or even terminal illness or going to the criminal market for pot. They collected more than 252,000 signatures to put the measure on the ballot - nearly 100,000 more than required.
All Arizona's sheriff's and county prosecutors, the governor, attorney general and many other politicians came out against the measure.
Carolyn Short, chairwoman of Keep AZ Drug Free, the group that organized opposition to the initiative, said her group believes the law will increase crime around dispensary locations, lead to more people driving while impaired and eventually lead to legalized pot for everyone.
