Refundable Tax Credits for Health Insurance: The Sensitivity of Simulated Impacts to Assumed Behavior
We replicate and extend a simulation model developed by Jonathan Gruber with the goals of illuminating Gruber's modeling of health insurance coverage under a tax credit and examining the sensitivity of the results to changes in the model's key parameters. The replications suggest that a refundable tax credit of $1,000 for a single individual or $2,000 for a family for private health insurance would reduce the number of uninsured individuals by between 17.5 and 28 percent and require new government expenditures of between $16.6 and $44 billion, of which about $7.4 - $9.7 billion would be for coverage of previously uninsured individuals. These wide simulated ranges highlight the uncertainty inherent in modeling the effects of health insurance tax credits and suggest that progress on the issue of tax credits for health insurance will require improved evidence on the likely take-up rate of a credit.

New to flies and need to learn how to design a genetic mating scheme? Thanks to John Roote and Andreas Prokop, there is now a four-part training package available. Explained in their recent G3 paper, this package is designed to ensure that basic knowledge on all key areas is covered in a concise and informative manner. First, a manual introduces the trainee to key topics including fly history, rationale for mating schemes, fly handling, markers and balancers, and transgenic technologies. This self-study section is followed by a practical training session on gender and marker selection, introducing real flies under the dissecting microscope. Next, through self-study of a PowerPoint presentation, trainees are guided step-by-step through a mating scheme. Finally, to consolidate knowledge, trainees are asked to design similar mating schemes reflecting routine tasks in a fly laboratory.
More info about the resource can be found here:
An update to the Drosophila melanogaster annotations was published by NCBI in January 2013. This update is reflected in GenBank (Jan 3), RefSeq (Jan 16), and Entrez Gene (Jan 17) records. This GenBank release corresponds to release 5.48 of the D. melanogaster genome annotation except for the changes noted below. We plan to continue to submit D. melanogaster annotation updates to NCBI approximately once a year. Exceptions to this timetable will occur when the assembly of the reference D. melanogaster genome is updated and annotations are migrated onto the new assembly.
Differences between the January 2013 GenBank annotations and those in release 5.48 of FlyBase:
The following
transcript isoforms are not present in the GenBank submission
and were
subsequently deleted in annotation release 5.49 of Dmel in FlyBase
as genbank
validation and curator evaluation determined they were not valid models:
- su(f)-RH
The following
protein isoforms (and their transcripts) were deleted
from the Genbank
submission and a new isoform (listed) was created due to
introduced annotation errors that were subsequently corrected
and are also
reflected in release 5.49 of Dmel in FlyBase:
- CG14869-PD deleted - CG14869-PE created
- CG43248-PB deleted - CG43248-PC created
- CG8564-PB deleted - CG8564-PC created
- RhoGAP18B-PG deleted - RhoGAP18B-PH created
The following protein isoforms (and their transcripts) were renamed
respectively in the GenBank submission and subsequent FlyBase releases
as the listed suffix had been previously used for a different isoform
in a previous GenBank submission:
- CG8290-PC renamed to CG8290-PD

Ashurst's review herald a sea change in activist hedge fund work?" />
Daring pioneers or risky opportunists? Several law firm heads of corporate will be pondering which category to place Ashurst in following the news that the top 10 firm is launching a review of activist hedge funds (see cover).
The same dichotomy might be applied to activist hedge funds themselves, and firms that see them as sophisticated M&A players rather than nuisance corporate raiders are more likely to applaud than heckle Ashurst's move.
Where these firms stand, however, depends on how they actually define the term 'activist hedge fund'. Allen & Overy, for instance, does not advise activist hedge funds, but is happy to advise a fund such as Och-Ziff – which is not unfamiliar with arbitrage or corporate agitating – on its M&A activity. It also advises the fund in its private equity-like activities, as it did last week when it backed ex-Asda CEO Archie Norman's £310m acquisition of tool hire company HSS.
There is certainly an embarrassment factor in admitting to having activist clients. Ashurst's decision, instigated by head of corporate Adrian Clark, is therefore important because it is an explicit move by a corporate-heavy City firm.
One magic circle partner's comments were typical of his peer group in relation to activist hedge funds. "We wouldn't be rushing to advise them," he said. "You don't want to end up on the front page of the Financial Times in connection with advising activist shareholders. It just doesn't endear you to your corporate client base.
"If anything, activist hedge funds are a huge opportunity for small US firms."
So it would seem. The London offices of Jones Day and McDermott Will & Emery both advise activist funds (Carousel and Polygon respectively, among others). The firms are not small in the global sense, but their London corporate client bases do not rival City firms'.
But just as activists used to be content with shaking up mid-tier corporates and now have bigger fish to fry, can we be surprised that top UK firms want a piece of the action when the deals in question are ones such as ABN Amro, Countrywide and Ahold, to name three that were instigated or affected by activist hedge funds?While the convergence between private equity and hedge funds that was predicted a year ago has not come to fruition, firms now realise that some private equity skills are easily transferable to the hedge fund sphere.
The potential for conflict with corporate clients is clear, and any firm considering advising activist hedge funds would have to be picky. Rather than the individual billionaire raider, it is the Polygons of this world, whose profiles are rising, that firms are beginning to think might make attractive clients rather than bothersome opponents.
With these caveats in mind, City firms have in fact been quietly advising activist hedge funds for a while – including Ashurst itself, which has long counted Cerberus as a client. Activism is just one realm of advice for garden-variety hedge funds, now a very established client base. It was never a question of whether top-tier firms would start advising activist shareholders, but when – and more to the point, when they would be open about it.
Clifford Chance and Travers Smith advised The Children's Investment Fund (TCI) in 2005 when the vehicle derailed Deutsche Börse's bid for the London Stock Exchange. This spring Clifford Chance found TCI responsible for potentially scuppering client Barclays' £80bn merger with ABN Amro when it called for the Dutch banking giant to be broken up, a strategy favoured by a rival bidding consortium.
Travers head of corporate Spencer Summerfield says: "I don't know if there used to be any snobbery about advising funds. It used to be simply that there wasn't much money in it beyond fund formation, and what funds then asked you to do wasn't really riveting. But now funds are doing a lot more and the advice they require is a lot more lucrative."
A Clifford Chance partner says firms were wary of activist hedge funds because, traditionally, they would call lawyers up angling for either free legal advice on targets or insider information. Even now "it's quite tricky to advise them – you can't give them commoditised advice," he says. Which would imply that good advice would be all the more precious (and expensive) to activist clients.
These days activist funds need advice on market abuse, reviewing public documents and how to steal a march on the market as well as buying stakes in IPOs, says Summerfield, who has advised SAC Capital Partners and Brandes Investment Partners. The latter bought a 12 per cent stake in Marks & Spencer when Philip Green's Revival Acquisitions attempted to take over the high street chain in 2004.
Jones Day corporate partner James Campbell, one of a few who have long advised such clients, explained that lawyers can also help on research and analysis of companies. "If the fund's proposing a company restructuring, lawyers advise on the viability of that, or perhaps on tax-related issues," he explains.
Hedge funds' new hobby of punting on distressed debt might also be an area where firms could get a foothold, advising funds on their favoured 'loan-to-own' strategies.
Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer corporate partner David Higgins also points to litigation as a possible source of advice. Hedge fund litigation is popular in the US, but has failed to take off in the UK despite there being a limited right for derivative actions (where shareholders can sue a company director personally). The scope for derivative actions will become broader in the UK once the Companies Act is brought in after October.
"I'm not sure how successful derivative actions will be," says Higgins. "But as a sabre-rattling exercise they'd certainly be interesting for activist hedge funds."
And making enough noise is often sufficient to achieve a desired result for activist funds, explains Campbell.
Ashurst's review is not necessarily intended to result in the firm acting for activist hedge funds alone. The thinking is that the firm has to be close to funds in order to advise its plc clients efficiently when activist hedge funds attack. Don't forget that the companies hedge funds prefer to agitate are more likely to be the blue-chip ones that are also clients of top-tier firms; companies such as Vodafone, which have a low share price from being too big for even private equity to swallow.
Higgins agrees with this. "If you have a credible corporate practice it's absolutely vital to understand how activist hedge funds operate," he says.
Hedge funds might be performing more like private equity these days, but the parallel with private equity also stretches to strategy. Firms that were early to embrace private equity soon won prime mover advantage: Ashurst and Travers are both private equity powerhouses. Interestingly, both now have an open attitude towards activist hedge funds.
That said, how racy Ashurst is being depends on your definition. Even Slaughter and May – not the most radical of firms – has cottoned on to activist hedge funds. As corporate partner Andy Ryde points out, these vehicles call themselves different things.
So, are the US firms worried about City partners encroaching on their territory? "No, not at all," says one such partner. "I don't think the magic circle firms are particularly well set up to serve activist hedge funds. These clients want one or two top-level partners rather than a massive team; they certainly don't want a 20-page memo. So let the City firms approach the clients and give them 20-page memos – it only makes me look better."
The M&A landscape is evolving and hedge fund activism is expected to increase. Although Europe is still hostile to activism, that's actually a plus-point, because firms that facilitate activist funds in such a harsh environment will find rewards. Only certain international firms could take on such work. Firms would be smart to follow Ashurst and at least test the water rather than batten down the hatches.

Moses Malone devoured rebounds so easily it sometimes seemed he missed shots on purpose to pad his total before scoring.
All those points and rebounds made Malone an NBA great.
A few words, and one championship, made him a Philadelphia sports icon.
Malone, a three-time NBA MVP and one of basketball's most ferocious rebounders, died Sunday in Norfolk, Virginia, where was scheduled to appear at a charity golf event. He was 60.
Malone had just attended this weekend's enshrinement ceremonies at the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in Springfield, Massachusetts. Nicknamed the "Chairman of the Boards," Malone was inducted himself in...

Wolf was one of the pseudonyms I wrote under and as such it has a great significance in my life. I love to swim, I love the water and snorkelling and all things aquatic. By extension I love all animals too, not just those that go in the water. I am currently a law student hoping to become a solicitor. It goes without saying I love to write, I don't know why I ever stopped. I also love to draw, mainly animals as I find humans highly frustrating! (Though there are some comic book humans on my deviant art page they were still very tedious.) Also by extension I love comics, specifically Flash, Birds of Prey, Chew, Wicked and Divine... but many other things also, the list would be too long. I have a boyfriend of 2 years of whom I love immensely. I love roller derby! I used to skate in a team but for now am on hiatus while uni takes the front burner. I still love to NSO though (go team grey!) My favourite book is The Hobbit. I love Black Stone Cherry, Stevie Nicks, Annie Lennox, Blondie and many others. I love all sorts of music. I think that's it but feel free to drop me a message anytime!

After collecting his third career win of his PGA Tour and his first victory since 2000, Steve Lowery left little doubt which title was the most meaningful for him.
Trailing by three strokes with four holes to play, Lowery wound up being the most unlikely of champions Sunday in the final round of the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am. He closed with a 2-under-par 70 to reach 10-under for the tournament and then birdied the first playoff hole to defeat Vijay Singh.
Not only did Lowery have an uphill climb just to get into the playoff, but once he did, the odds appeared to be stacked against him, especially competing against a man with more than 30 career victories. Never mind the fact that the 47-year-old Lowery was ranked No. 305 in the world and was playing on a minor medical extension after an early season wrist injury greatly limited his
"What I've been through with the injury and (I) had some play that was not as good — some times that I didn't play very well," Lowery told reporters after securing the win that gave him $1.08 million in prize money, a two-year exemption on Tour and a trip to the Masters. "This is absolutely the most meaningful."
Interestingly, all three of Lowery's PGA Tour wins have come in playoffs. The first was in the 1994 International against Rick Fehr and the second came against Skip Kendall in the 2000 Southern Farm Bureau Classic.
On Sunday at Pebble Beach Golf Links, Lowery made his move on the front nine, collecting birdies at No. 1, No. 4 and Nos.7-9. He later suffered bogeys on holes 11 and 14, but was able to recover with a birdie at No. 17.
After Singh bounced back from a horrendous string of three consecutive birdies on Nos. 14-16, he rose up to birdie No. 18 and force a playoff — a position that had served him well in his first two playoffs on Tour, both resulting in victories.
Even playing against a big name by Singh, Lowery took an aggressive approach in the playoff.
"I couldn't have given it any more in 18 holes," Lowery said. "I'd been focusing all week. I just kind of told my caddie, I've got nothing to lose and just go out and play aggressive.
"I guess if anything, it kind of freed me up a little bit. I just felt like I didn't have anything to lose."
Singh, who struggled to make five on the par-5 18th hole, twice found sand bunkers in the playoff.
"I'm very disappointed," Singh told reporters after dropping to 7-3 in career playoffs. "I let this one slip away. I didn't think I was going to lose this. I need to go re-think and see what really went wrong
"I played well, I played well down the stretch, but on the middle of the back nine I let some go away."
Lowery and Singh both finished the tournament at 10-under 278. Dudley Hart, John Mallinger and Corey Pavin all finished tied for third at 9-under 279, while Jason Day was alone in sixth place at 8-under 280.
Fredrik Jacobson teamed with Bill Walters to win the pro-am by a record 10 strokes. The two combined to shoot 38-under-par 250.
Lowery said he figured Singh would be his saltiest playoff opponent yet.
"You know what you've got, so are you going to be able to match it and are you going to be able to stand up and play this hole because you know he's going to," Lowery said. "I think that's the mindset that I had, that it's not a matter of him giving it to you, it's a matter of are you going to go out there and win it."
It was Lowery who found himself in excellent position on No. 18 in the playoff, however. He finished off his victory with a seven-foot birdie putt.
"You have to play the hole, like I said, courageously," Lowery said. "Try to play for birdie; it's a par 5. You've got to play it the way you would play it if you went out there 10 times.
"I played solid all day, so I'm very proud of the way I won it."
February 11, 2008
Davis Love III, who played the final 57 holes of the Children's Miracle Network Classic without a bogey, finished at 25-under 263 in the season-ending event played at the Walt Disney World Golf Resort in Florida. It has been a long road back for Love, who severely sprained his ankle late last year. After tearing ligaments, he needed surgery, and he's spent much of this year rehabilitating the injury.

In the Battle Over Aereo, CBS Explores the Nuclear Option
CNet is reporting that CBS Chief Executive Les Moonves has suggested that it would stop broadcasting if the broadcast streaming service Aereo won a forthcoming supreme court case about the service's legality.
Aereo uses a technology that pairs subscribers with one of thousands of tiny antennas that live in data centers in selected cities around the country. Broadcasters say that the service violates copyright statutes against public performance, but so far lower courts have ruled in Aereo's favor. Aereo's monthly subscription service does an end run around having to subscribe to cable packages, and as a result, networks don't get the subscription fees that come from relationships with cable companies.
If broadcasters moved off of the public airwaves, I'd be interested to see how many people would pay a monthly subscriptions to CBS. It is hard for broadcasters to deny that there is a slow but steady bleed of people cancelling cable altogether which seems like a harbinger of a future that allows users to go completely À la carte with their TV consumption. So while Moonves' statement feels like kind of an empty threat, maybe he's just the loudest and most forward thinking broadcast network boss.

Data For Improving Healthcare vs Data For Exasperating Healthcare Workers
The phrase "healthcare data" either strikes fear and loathing, or provides understanding and resolve in the minds of administration, clinicians, and nurses everywhere. Which emotion it brings out depends on how the data will be used. Data employed as a weapon for purposes of accountability generates fear. Data used as a teaching instrument for learning inspires trust and confidence.
Not all data for accountability is bad. Data used for prescriptive analytics within a security framework, for example, is necessary to reduce or eliminate fraud and abuse. And data for improvement isn't without its own faults, such as the tendency to perfect it to the point of inefficiency. But the general culture of collecting data to hold people accountable is counterproductive, while collecting data for learning leads to continuous improvement.
This isn't a matter of eliminating what some may consider to be bad metrics. It's a matter of shifting the focus away from using metrics for accountability and toward using them for learning so your hospital can start to collect data for improving healthcare.

Fathers who want their sons circumcised. In a landmark legal decision, Dame Elizabeth Butler-Sloss ruled that the Christian mother of a five-year-boy was entitled to stop her son undergoing a ritual circumcision. The boy's Muslim father claimed it was his son's birthright to be circumcised in accordance with his religion.
Habitual burglars. Home Secretary Jack Straw is setting up a unit to monitor judges' sentences for persistent housebreakers. Under the "three strikes and you're out" rule, to be introduced next month, judges will be obliged to jail burglars convicted of three offences for a minimum three years. However, the Crime (Sentences) Act provides a get out clause for "specific circumstances" and Straw is worried liberal judges will use it freely to avoid jailing offenders. The Prison Service expects the number of inmates to rise by 4,000 over the next decade if the act is carried out with full force.
Harold Bell & Co, solicitors in Ewell, Surrey. The firm was paid £3,000 to administer the estate of Nancy Waller who died intestate, aged 90. The solicitors distributed £39,662 to the deceased's first and second cousins but within weeks of receiving their money, the 18 beneficiaries had their cheques stopped or were asked to return money already spent. A letter sent by Harold Bell & Co stated: "We very much regret that the calculation of the beneficiaries of this estate was carried out incorrectly… this arose due to an error on our part."

Before anyone starts thinking Russell and Katy split up because he couldn't hide his passion for Kerry Katona any longer – that's the not the case (unless he's harbouring a secret desire for her anyway, in which case he should probably seek some form of therapy, again).
No, this particular attraction was BKP (Before Katy Perry) and Kerry's just decided to reveal it to the world, via her OK! column – of course.
"He once said he'd 'give me one'," Kerry wrote, um we mean, Kerry told someone else, who then wrote. "He's proper hot-blooded stuff but it's sad when any marriage ends."
And there ends KK's lesson in love and loss and she can now officially and publicly describe herself as 'a girl that Russell Brand would' - along with the rest of the world's female population.
Is this why Russell has been looking so depressed wandering around London?
Or why Katy has pulled out of the People's Choice Awards tomorrow night? They're both embarrassed by Kerry's column? No, probably not.
Kerry's also been blabbing about Celebrity Big Brother and is less than impressed by Nicola McLean for having a Twitter row with Natalie Cassidy and Natasha Giggs and then being nice as pie to them in the house.
"She's so two-faced! I'm going to stand up for Natasha because it wasn't just her that Ryan Giggs was sleeping with, it takes two people to have an affair."
Something tells us Kerry had better watch her back when Nicola gets out and starts brandishing her Twitter sword again… Russell can just keep his in his pocket for a bit though thanks.

JUSTIN Bieber's new music will "shock" people.
The 20-year-old musician is currently working on his first album since 2012's 'Believe', following a turbulent period during which he has had multiple scrapes with the law, and despite the delay, the singer's long-time manager and friend Scooter Braun has promised the new music will please and surprise his fans.
He said, "He's in such an incredible place right now, and he's excited to share where he is with the world next year.
It will shock some people and make others really happy."
Adding to the promising claims, the 33-year-old talent manager – who welcomed his first son with Yael Cohen on Friday – told Complex magazine the 'Boyfriend' hitmaker is ready to "be the man people want him to be" with his upcoming album, which will be filled with an "openness about what he's learned in the last year".
New material from the popular musician follows a public apology issued by Justin last month on the 'Ellen DeGeneres Show', which was followed by an online video in which he said he was "nervous" about the public interview. BANG!

One of the highlights of our tour, historic Granada was the last stronghold of the Moors in al-Andalus. We walked into the Bib Rambla, part of the old Silk Market and now the Flower Market of Granada. We sampled some of the best Chocolate and Churros in Andalucia. Walked through the square and passed the Bishops Palace and walked into the Alcaiceria, the well preserved old ...
A hot one in Granada
... They took Granada from the Moors in that year as Isabella wanted the Alhambra as her residence. The chapel holds the remains of F& I as well as their daughter, Joana, the mad and her husband Felipe, the handsome . I kid you not
The 4 effigies are magnificent and the crypt below holds their lead coffins. The museum holds I's crown, F's sword, various treasures and a wealth of religious art, owned by F& I.

The food was excellent, we started with 4 dips and pita (hummus, house salad, a tomato and onion salad, and aubergine salad - all 4 great) we missed Quinny as she likes her chippy and dip. For dinner we had 2 tagines, one lamb and prunes, a local favorite and one chicken and lemon, these were accompanied by couscous and vegetables. We finished the evening off with some great Moroccan pastries. It ...

I don't know if thanks what it's called, but it's pizza toppings on some type of bread. It looks and smells good and is much better than the convenience store meal we almost had. Back at the hotel we eat our pizza, very tasty and we again settle down at our normal bedtime. Sleeping in tomorrow ...
Big city, big palace, big problems.
... for the occasional church photo or shoe shop visit. We spent a long while waiting for Conor to buy track pants, before we returned to the room and prepared for dinner. We had dinner at a very nice upmarket meal at the Carmen De Las Tomases Restaurante, which overlooks the Alhambra. I had the most deliciously tender lamb, before we returned to our room late at night, and went to bed satisfied thus far after our most tasty meal so far. See you again in Granada, goodbye for ...

There is an island in the southern ocean, halfway between South Africa and the Antarctic mainland, which is battered by severe storms year round. There is no plant life. There are no human settlements. There is no anchorage. Natural harbours are non-existent around a black ring of basalt cliffs, a rampart against the onslaught of screaming winds and a battering ram of waves pounding in from the west. Apart from providing brief resting for seals and albatross in transit, life on an ongoing basis is unsustainable. There is simply nothing there of attraction. It serves no apparent purpose. It was as if at creation, nature had swung the island out as an off-cut, in favour of a better design. Westward-travelling low-pressure weather systems en route via Bouvetoya Island often strike glancing but spectacular blows on the shores of South Africa. The devastation from seven-metre waves and hundred kilometres per hour winds is well recorded. Bouvetoya, otherwise known as Bouvet Island, is the heart of the southern ocean weather engine, and is thus easily judged and sensibly avoided.

Although he is often characterized as an "architect" exclusively, as James Beck has observed, "to single out one of Leon Battista's 'fields' over others as somehow functionally independent and self-sufficient is of no help at all to any effort to characterize Alberti's extensive explorations in the fine arts."

Earn Your Own Trust, Roll Your Own Ethics, Transparency and Beyond
By Bill Mitchell and Bob Steele
SUMMARY: This paper explores the ethical implications of blogging. Our central premise: the act of publishing almost always holds consequences for stakeholders beyond the writer. Our major question: what are the writer's obligations to those stakeholders? Our main conclusions: Transparency is a first step in building trust with an audience but is insufficient to achieve credibility. We do not prescribe ethics standards for bloggers. Instead, we recommend that bloggers involve their audience in a co-authored process that addresses the personal information the bloggers are willing to share, the principles they stand for, and the processes they follow.
The paper was prepared for a January 21-22, 2005 conference on Journalism, Blogging and Credibility at the Joan Shorenstein Center on the Press, Politics and Public Policy at Harvard University.

The Fause Knight Upon the Road
|Wikisource has original text related to this article:
The Fause Knight Upon the Road is a British ballad, collected and published as Child ballad 3, Roud 20. It features a riddling exchange between a schoolboy and a "false knight," the devil in disguise.[1]
The knight asks the boy where he is going, and what he is carrying (books). He asks after the sheep, which belong to the boy and his mother, and how many belong to the knight—as many as have blue tails. The knight may wish him in a tree, the boy to have a ladder, the knight to have it break, and so on.
Throughout any exchange, the boy is described as standing fast. This appears to be the condition that will save him.
The boy's ability to evade the devil may spring from the devil's inability to dumbfound him; gaining power over people by this means is a motif found in other folktales.[2]
A Swedish variant features the little boy, but an old woman, presumably a witch, in the place of the knight.[2]

A location that's always in demand
Built on the Salsette Island, Andheri East, one of Mumbai's largest suburbs, has always been in prominence. Over 100 corporates from diverse domains are in Andheri East and with innumerable opportunities, it is undoubtedly Mumbai's most thriving suburb. The growing demand for residential space in Andheri East due to the burgeoning commercial and corporate space and the booming infrastructure development in the absence of additional land parcels ensure that real estate in Andheri East will only become dearer with time.
Owing to the infrastructural developments over the past 5 years such as the V-A-G metro link, Andheri East enjoys the highest appreciation among the suburbs in the vicinity. It also has the highest rental yields in the MMR region. Following this trend, the graph depicts the healthy growth of Lodha Eternis based on the Knight Frank report.How to reach

Online Coupon Offer Nearly Doubles D.C. Bikeshare Membership Overnight
(Washington D.C. - David Schultz, WAMU) My colleague at WAMU, the esteemed J. Patrick Madden, reports that membership in Capital Bikeshare, D.C.'s nascent bikesharing program, "practically doubled overnight to 10,000" after the city partnered with the online coupon company Living Social.
Thousands of Living Social members took advantage of discounted membership rates and can now ride on one of the seemingly ubiquitous red and yellow Capital Bikeshare bikes.
The District is looking to build 25 new bike rental stations, Madden reports, in addition to the 100 that already exist. Currently, the stations are only in D.C. and neighboring Arlington County, Va. But other local jurisdictions, such as Alexandria, Va. and Montgomery County, Md., have expressed interest in joining Capital Bikeshare.
Capital Bikeshare was one of the cornerstone accomplishments of former D.C. Mayor Adrian Fenty and his Transportation Director Gabe Klein, who was just hired by Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel to head that city's Department of Transportation.
Both the program's membership numbers and the sheer amount of chatter surrounding it--I've had the topic of Capital Bikeshare come up in conversation no less than five discrete times over the past two days--would indicate that Capital Bikeshare is an unmitigated success.
Well, if I may, please allow me to mitigate.
Washingtonians, have you ever seen anyone riding a Capital Bikeshare bike while wearing a helmet? I know I haven't.
The reasons for this are fairly obvious: renting a Capital Bikeshare bike (or, as the kids are calling it, a CaBi) is a spontaneous act for many. Bus taking too long to arrive? Get a CaBi. Car broke down? Don't worry, just pick up a CaBi.
Of course, most people don't prepare for these eventualities by carrying a bike helmet with them at all times. And while you can rent a bike through Capital Bikeshare, you can't rent a helmet. (That would be gross.) So, in that sense, the District is essentially subsidizing - if not outright encouraging - helmetless riding through its new publicly funded bikesharing program.
Is this a fatal flaw for Capital Bikeshare? No, definitely not. But it will be interesting to see how the District deals with this issue when and if media reports of disproportionately high head injury rates start appearing.
