New to Cycle Touring and I have some time off work so was thinking of riding over to visit some friends in Westport Ireland from London. According to Google its about 900km from London.
Currently I have 2 bikes which are both 3 speed Internal hub bikes more geared to Commuting
1- A Globe Daily 1 3spd (Shimano 3 speed hub)
2- A Non-Folding version of the Dawes KingPin 3Spd (Sturmey-Archer 3 speed hub):
I don't really want to buy a new bike at this point as I have limited storage space and funds at the moment - and I'm not sure I"m into this cycle touring thing. But I guess If I'm paying for accommodation along the way - a faster bike means less nights accomodation.
Would it be crazy to just stick a back rack + Panniers on the Globe Daily 1 and ride to Ireland? (and back - I guess I could take some trains back)
I guess it would take quite a while to get there (10 days each way?). Do people usually just camp on the way? I thought I'd stay in hostels / hotels maybe. Is it legal/safe to just camp along the road in the UK & Ireland?
I've done some 50 km day rides on the Globe Daily 1 in the Netherlands. It was ok.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — The rules, adopted July 1, could slow the transportation of products or force companies to put more truckers on the road, said researchers at the University of Tennessee's Global Supply Chain Institute.
Staff Report
Published Jan. 8, 2014
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Nearly three out of five companies responding to a survey by the University of Tennessee's Global Supply Chain Institute think new federal regulations mandating rest time for truckers could lead to greater transportation costs.
The new hours-of-service rules from the U.S. Department of Transportation's Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration, which went into place July 1, are designed to improve driver safety by reducing truck driver fatigue.
|Mary Holcomb, University of Tennessee researcher
The study surveyed 417 companies and found that 58% of expected an increase in their carrier rates. They anticipated passing on the costs to their customers in the long term.
This is not a realistic solution, said Mary Holcomb, an associate professor and the study's author.
"In this economy, companies won't want to damage the relationships with their customers by raising prices," Holcomb said. "Carriers may be unable to absorb these increased costs, so companies will have to improve their operations in order to minimize their impact."
Holcomb is the Niedert Supply Chain Fellow in the University of Tennessee's Department of Marketing and Supply Chain Management, which is based in the College of Business Administration.
Holcomb's study identifies ways companies could mitigate those costs. She noted that some of those businesses are incorporating new initiatives.
"Many of them also will be a doubling down on efforts already underway," she said.
Efforts to transport products more efficiently and control costs include the following:
The research also uncovered actions that many companies have yet to consider. Fewer than 5% of the polled companies planned to reduce costs by consolidating shipments with other companies.
"The logistics of coordinating shipping across companies is often too complex to sustain," said Dean Vavalides, logistics analyst for Pilot Flying J who collaborated on the study. "It just requires too much synchronization."
Holcomb added she was surprised to discover that so few companies plan on shifting transportation methods from truck to rail although research showed that long-haul moves have been the most impacted by the hours-of-service rule change.
Switching the long-haul moves from truck to rail could reduce the arrival time, she said.
The university's Global Supply Chain Institute will conduct a follow-up study in mid-2014 on the long-term impact of the hours-of-service rules.
Holcomb's concerns about the new regulations were shared by Duane Long, chairman of the Raleigh, N.C.-based Longistics.
Long called on Congress to support the TRUE Safety Act, a bill introduced by Reps. Richard Hanna, R-N.Y.; Tom Rice, R-S.C.; and Michael Michaud, D-Maine; to stay the new rules until an independent review can be completed.
"Drivers, motor carriers and researchers have identified and documented a clear and wide disparity from FMCSA's rhetoric and trucking's new, more costly operating reality," Long said.
"Congress should postpone the effective date of these new provisions until the Government Accountability Office can objectively evaluate the data and methodology used by FMCSA," he said.

Paul Rudd's New Our Idiot Brother Trailer Makes A Case For Legalizing Pot
By Josh Tyler 2011-06-14 17:46:11 comments
Heres a new trailer for Our Idiot Brother, and along the way to making this movie seem like a must see, it also makes a pretty good case for how ridiculous it is that were actually still locking up people for smoking marijuana.
In the film Paul Rudd plays a harmless, lovable, stoner whose insistence on kindness, honesty, and thinking the best of everyone lands him in jail for possession. He gets out and ends up going to live with his sisters, all of whom are endlessly frustrated by his kindhearted ways.
Watch the latest trailer for Our Idiot Brother below or in HD on Yahoo.
Theres a point in this trailer where Rudds siblings, played by Zooey Deschanel and Elizabeth Banks, get together and wish they could love things as much as their brother does. Answer: You can. All you need is a bong and a healthy resistance to the side effects of paranoia. Write your congressman now. Thanks Our Idiot Brother, for making me wish I could smoke out.
Our Idiot Brother arrives in theaters August 26th. For more in the movie visit our page in the Blend Film Database.

"I have a lot of band tattoos," admits Kris Fulton, the café manager at Baltimore's Lamill Coffee inside the Four Seasons Hotel. There are pieces that reference the Smiths, Blink-182, Jawbreaker, and Daniel Johnston.
One piece of a giant lightning bolt shattering the Capitol Building is taken from DC hardcore band Bad Brains' 1982 debut. Fulton grew up in between the District and Baltimore and fell for music at the same time that the group was gaining popularity. "They're all African-American, which was surprising for a band like that at that time," he says. "They went into an environment that they weren't used to or familiar with, then made it their own thing and shaped it."

Politicizing the Classroom: Challenges to Climate Change Education in America's Public Schools
Mark McCaffrey - NCSE
Catherine Halverson - Lawrence Hall of Science
Wen Lee - Alliance for Climate Education
Maggie Fleming - EarthTeam
October 17, 2012
Ecology Center
2530 San Pablo Ave (near Dwight Way)
Berkeley, California
Each year, thousands of school aged children in the US are taught "both sides of the climate change controversy," with school boards in over a dozen states having passed policies categorizing climate change along with evolution and human cloning as "controversial science."
There are, however, some bright spots in the fog surrounding climate change education. The Alliance for Climate Education has reached over one million students around the country through multimedia presentations famous for exciting students so much that they crowd at the front of the room at the presentation's end. EarthTeam uses peer-to-peer education, student led action projects, and a TV show on environmental issues, The Green Screen.
Join us for a panel discussion with leaders in the field of climate change education. We'll explore the many challenges to climate change education in public schools, and how parents, teachers, students, and other concerned citizens can take action.

Sunday, April 24, 2011
Francis gave up 9 hits and 5 earned runs in just 4 innings of work Friday night while Chen gave up 8 hits and 6 earned runs in 4.1 innings today. Both would certainly qualify as ugly starts. Kyle Davies would turn in the weekend's lone quality start (his second straight for those who haven't noticed). It's hard to fault Francis and Chen too much since the Rangers ballpark is a bit of a joke and the strike zone during the series was inconsistent at best. That may sound like sour grapes, and it probably is, but whatever.
The sweep was disappointing but I'm not sure it told us anything we already didn't know. Chris Getz has seen his numbers fall dramatically and probably needs to be replaced by Mike Aviles in the lineup. Aviles hit leadoff today and Getz hit ninth so I think there's a good chance the Cleveland series begins with Getz on the bench. I wrote in the St. Joseph News Press that despite having a good offense thus far there were some issues that will need to be addressed, after 20 games four regulars had on-base percentages below .300. This basically means that Gordon, Butler, Betemit, and Francoeur have been carrying the offense, and when they struggle runs will be hard to come by. Now I'm not worried about Ka'aihue and I believe Escobar's defense makes up for his bat, but I fear we've seen the best of Cabrera.
Both catchers have been doing poorly but Treanor has just been dreadful (.119/.262/.260). Last year Pena hit better once he started playing every day, so if that would hold true this year, then the team would be best served by letting him start four out of every five games. And really, Pena's not an all that attractive offensive option but Mike Macfarlane isn't walking through that door.
It'll be interesting to see how they handle the sweep, we know in years past this would be the beginning of a week long losing streak but something tells me this won't happen. After losing the last two games and being down 8-2 in the fifth inning today, instead of rolling over and calling it a series, they battled back and eventually brought the tying run to the plate in the 9th inning. This is what makes this team so entertaining to watch, they don't quit until the final out is made.
As for the fans, if you jumped on the bandwagon at 10-4 and are jumping off now, I don't know what to tell you. Except that you shouldn't have been on the bandwagon to begin with.

Going into that Rangers series, I was feeling pretty good. The hard truth is that we are NO WHERE close to as good as the Texas Rangers.ReplyDelete
That doesnt mean we are a bad team, but when your strongest part of your team is the bullpen the starters have to keep you in the game for six innings.
The most alarming thing for me this series was the fact that Friday down 5-0 the Royals stormed back to tie the game. The next half-inning Francis immediately gives the lead right back. Sunday the Royals tied the game twice, and Chen immediately gave the lead back both times.
When your offense is scoring to back up the starters, DONT GIVE THE LEAD RIGHT BACK. As for the offense, its getting gloomy. Butler continues to struggle in CLUTCH spots. Melky is hot and cold (DeJesus), Escobar cant hit, Getz had a hot start but is showing his career numbers. Kila is killing us, but we all know there is no help until at least June 1.
I will agree, its been a blast so far. We have been in the game every night. You never know!!!
One thing I'll point out, Nathan...the Rangers are conditioned to hit at that park with their current lineup. They have a bunch of guys that hit balls into the air, and with a HR friendly park in addition to the wind blowing out for at least games #1 and #3 (where the Rangers went nuts)...ReplyDelete
Sure, the Rangers are a better team, but I tend to think the Royals find a way to win one of those three if the series was played at the K.
- Anonymous4/25/11, 7:12 PM
I agree that the Ballpark at Arlington played like it will during the hot months of summer, with the ball carrying. Royals will not win many in that environment. Youngsters are playing decent, but Yost can't be afraid to tinker with lineup. Find a righty Pena can catch. Use Aviles at 2d.ReplyDelete

Wednesday, December 6, 2006 - In October, the nation's largest airlines recorded a lower rate of on-time flights than in either the previous month or October of last year, according to the Air Travel Consumer Report released today by the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT).
According to information filed with the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), a part of DOT's Research and Innovative Technology Administration (RITA), the 20 carriers reporting on-time performance recorded an overall on-time arrival rate of 72.9 percent in October, down from both October 2005's 81.3 rate and September 2006's 76.2 percent mark.
The monthly report also includes data on the causes of flight delays and cancellations, as well as reports of mishandled baggage filed with the carriers and consumer service, disability and discrimination complaints received by DOT's Aviation Consumer Protection Division. This report also includes reports required to be filed by U.S. carriers of incidents involving pets traveling by air.
The consumer report includes BTS data on the number of domestic flights canceled by the reporting carriers. In October, the carriers canceled 1.9 percent of their scheduled domestic flights, slightly higher than both October 2005's 1.8 percent and September 2006's 1.7 percent.
The carriers filing on-time performance data reported that 9.68 percent of their October flights were delayed by aviation system delays, compared to 8.37 percent in September 2006; 7.99 percent by late-arriving aircraft, compared to 6.77 percent in September; 6.34 percent by factors within the airline's control, such as maintenance or crew problems, compared to 5.74 percent in September; 0.95 percent by extreme weather, compared to 0.92 percent in September; and 0.06 percent for security reasons, the same rate as September. Weather is a factor in both the extreme-weather category and the aviation-system category. This includes delays due to the re-routing of flights by DOT's Federal Aviation Administration in consultation with the carriers involved. Weather is also a factor in delays attributed to late-arriving aircraft, although airlines do not report specific causes in that category.
Data collected by BTS also show the percentage of overall flights delayed by weather, including those reported in either the category of extreme weather or included in National Aviation System delays. In October, 46.28 percent of flights were delayed by weather, down 1.47 percent from October 2005, when 46.97 percent of flights were delayed by weather, and up 1.85 percent from September when 45.44 percent of flights were delayed by weather.
Detailed information on flight delays and their causes is available on the BTS site on the World Wide Web at http://www.bts.gov.
The U.S. carriers reporting flight delay and mishandled baggage data posted a mishandled baggage rate of 7.51 reports per 1,000 passengers in October, up from October 2005's 4.96 rate but below September 2006's 8.25 mark.
In October, carriers reported five incidents involving pets while traveling by air, up from the total of four reported in September. The October incidents involved three pet deaths, one injury and one lost pet.
In October, the Department received 628 complaints from consumers about airline service, down 4.6 percent from the 658 complaints filed in October 2005 but 0.3 percent more than the total of 626 recorded in September 2006.
The report also contains a tabulation of complaints filed with DOT in October against specific airlines regarding the treatment of passengers with disabilities. The Department received a total of 29 disability-related complaints in October, down 40 percent from the 48 complaints received in October 2005 but 3.6 percent more than the total of 28 received in September 2006.
In October, the Department received 10 complaints alleging discrimination by airlines due to factors other than disability – such as race, religion, national origin or sex – up slightly from the totals of eight recorded in both October 2005 and September 2006.
Consumers may file their complaints in writing with the Aviation Consumer Protection Division, U.S. Department of Transportation, C-75, Room 4107, 400 7th St. SW, Washington, DC 20590; by e-mail at firstname.lastname@example.com; by voice mail at (202) 366-2220 or by TTY at (202) 366-0511.
Consumers who want on-time performance data for specific flights should call their airline ticket offices or their travel agents. This information is available on the computerized reservation systems used by these agents.
The Air Travel Consumer Report can be found on DOT's World Wide Web site at http://airconsumer.ost.dot.gov. It is available in "pdf" and Microsoft Word format.

As most of you know, I recently took a trip to Machu Picchu, starting through Cuzco.
Let me just say that Cuzco is an AMAZING city and deserves to be known as more than just a jumping off point for Machu Picchue.
When I arrived, eeaaaaaarly in the morning on a Tuesday…it was raining. The city was grey and freezing.
I'm not going to lie — my first experience with Roomarama wasn't great. The host that was supposed to pick me up at the airport didn't show up.
So I figured, whatever, I'll just take a taxi to the apartment I'm supposed to be staying at.
No go.
First, the taxi driver was like…."Are you sure this is where you're supposed to be? This isn't a very tourist-y location."
But it was the address that the host from Roomarama had sent me so I thought I was sure.
Second, I knocked and nobody answered the door, I started to doubt myself. I double checked the information I had written down. I double checked the information the host had sent me.
I knocked on the door again. Then I pounded, and hoped somebody would answer me…no go, again.
Finally, I walked to an internet cafe. It was still early, I got to the internet cafe around 8am I think. I was soaking wet. Shivering in my clothes from the plane, I was walking around in Cusco in flip flops while it down-poured. No fun.
The owner of the internet cafe was kind enough to let me use her cell phone (Peruvians are AWESOME at being nice to tourists — more on that to come). The owner of the apartment that I was supposed to be staying at through Roomarama still wasn't answering.
So I emailed Roomarama. They were AMAZING. They responded to me right away — though there wasn't much they could do. They were trying to call him as well with no answer. But I received quick contact from the people there and they were doing their best to help me.
I know they don't have control over what the people who sign up to use their website do, but they were awesome about trying to help me out and I was really impressed by how on the ball they were and how quickly they wrote me back.
In the end, I finally got through to the host and he told me that I was set to sleep somewhere else and had the wrong address. Once I had the correct address and was on my way, everything was all good. I was so relieved to know that I had a place to stay…and on top of that…it ended up being WAY nicer than I had thought!
See for yourself. Prime location in Cuzco — within minutes of walking distance from the main plaza. Nice warm showers, clean beds, breakfast….what more can a girl ask for?! I had a rocky start with Roomarama but in the end I loved them — and I'm using them again for my trip to NYC!
The first day, and every day, they had tea sitting out, made with coke leaves for people who got altitude sickness. The staff that worked there were super friendly and helpful. I couldn't have asked for me!
Disclaimer: According to the FTC rules I have to tell you that Roomarama sponsored my stay. However, please note — I am not being forced to blog about this and I wouldn't say any of it if it weren't true.

WASHINGTON – Virginia's race for governor could be the most expensive in the state's history and so far much of the money is coming from out-of-state donors.
The Virginia Public Access Project, which monitors campaign spending, says about 28 percent of the overall money donated so far has come from Virginia residents.
"No candidate for governor has ever gotten less than half of his money from Virginia," says VPAP Director David Poole. As of Monday, about three-quarters of the donations came from outside the state.
"There's a lot of people out trying to turn the Virginia race into a proxy for whatever issues they think is important on the federal level," Poole says.
About $30 million has been donated so far. The largest amount ever spent during a campaign for Virginia governor was the more than $46 million spent in 2005 when Tim Kaine beat Jerry Kilgore.
The biggest single donor for Terry McAuliffe is the Democratic Governor's Association, which has given him $4.9 million so far, according to VPAP's online records.
Republican candidate Ken Cuccinelli has received $6.7 million from the Republican Governor's Association, his largest campaign contributor, according to VPAP.
Also, Cuccinelli is getting hundreds of thousands of dollars from out-of-state coal and gas companies.
Among McAuliffe's other big donors are several large national labor unions and environmental groups, which donated more than $1 million. The law firm of Peter Angelos, which also owns the Baltimore Orioles, donated $250,000.
Both candidates received $15,000 from St. Louis-based brewer Anheuser-Busch.

The Countryside Alliance has warned that the latest removal of business to the Post Office network could result in them closing "by stealth." The Department of Work and Pensions has today given the contract of welfare cheques to PayPoint, removing a service traditionally provided by Post Offices. Following on from the previous Government's closure programme, which saw 2,500 of the 14,000 strong network close, the Coalition previously stated that it "wants to see the Post Office become a genuine front office for Government at both the national and local level" and that "there will be no further programme of closures".
"The Government has stated its commitment to small businesses and to rural life, so it should be helping to bolster our Post Office network by giving it contracts, not removing them. The Government shows a lack of vision and support for this vital network. Our Post Offices form the hearts of their communities – let's safeguard them."
Countryside Alliance Chief Executive Alice Barnard commented: "This is a worrying development which may see further Post Offices close by stealth. Removing business from the Post Office can only make the network less viable and more vulnerable to closure. In addition, this latest move will either force people to open a Post Office Card Account or a bank account elsewhere to pay in their benefit or pension cheque. This will have a particular impact on those people who are unable to open bank accounts, get credit in the traditional way or travel to access a PayPoint outlet, such as the elderly, the immobile and those with low credit ratings."

I'm proud to announce that my wife has gone out on a bike ride with me tonight. We've dedicated a helmet to her. She rode my regular commuter, an old Trek 800 with slicks.
She wants a similar bike of her own. I'm building up a Trek 850 with the same set up. Just like my commuter, she wants it set up with lights, pannier rack, frame pack, handlebar bag, water bottle cages -- and a bell. I'm all over it. I expect I'll have that bike up and running for her within the next couple of days. She wants to go riding again tomorrow.
Funny, we had only recently taken a trip to Mackinac Island, where we rode beach cruisers. She seemed to really enjoy that, and now she's taken to riding with me for a bit of exercise.
Anybody else got a spouse or loved one who's taken up riding recently? I can't be the only one.

Jennifer Lopez Considering Adoption?
May 07, 2012 10:00 AM by Shayla Perry
Things are really heating up between FOX's American Idol judge Jennifer Lopez and her beau, Casper Smart, with friends revealing that the pop star is already talking about marriage. But is J. Lo ready to have more kids, too? And is she considering adoption?
"I don't know," Lopez tells Access Hollywood's Shaun Robinson. "Before this movie, it wasn't something that had occurred to me. But after this movie, yes, I could see myself definitely doing it and being open to it for sure," the What To Expect When You're Expecting star continues. "You know what I mean? Whereas, before I never thought about it really."
In the movie, which hits theaters May 18th, Lopez's character and her significant other go through many ups and downs throughout the adoption process, but it was working with the twins who played her adopted child in the film that really opened Jennifer's eyes — and her heart.
"It was funny, the adoption thing," says Jennifer. "When I held the baby for the first time — our baby in the movie, and they were twins, they were two little twin Ethiopian boys, who, their parents went through a similar thing, and actually have adopted before, and got to talk to them a lot about it too. But when you hold that baby, you can really see how easy it is to just love another child that is not yours. Really, such a simple thing."

Ginger Davis Says:

I think that is wonderful that Jennifer is concerning adoption. But do the Adoptive parents (AP) think real hard on the heartache a Birthmother goes through. It's been 23 years since I have held my daughter which I don't ever seeing this ever happening. If you have and open adoption where you can physically hold her or him and get to know her or him keep in on going. I can talk to my daughter on Facebook but I don't really know my limitation of what I can say. For she never responds first to me I feel like its a have to respond to me just to be polite. I want a relationship with her and be part of her life. I have asked her where is my boundaries and she never responds back to me. She is pushing me away for I am going to be a like a lot of birthmother who just close door. For the pain is so hard to bare. I hope anyone in the adoption triangle reads this and to understand all three parties are in pain but the one that is in the most pain is the birthmother. For she is the one who carried that baby and felt it move in side of her and the pain in baring that child life. She may or may not have held the baby also, I did for three days. I had other options Abortion or keeping the baby was the other way to go but sacrificing my life for her baby to have a two parent home. AP'S don't be afraid to share your baby that you are holding every day. Your baby's missing their birthmother also. Especially in the beginning of life in this world. Always remember that little gift of sharing a part of your baby life with their birthmother is a life time treasure!!!! I know the AP's think no problem in this but then after they get the baby the cut the birthmother off. I was bless for my AP responded to me fast to my letters. I wish I had an open adoption instead of a semi. Semi is ok but the line of communication with the child is harder in the future. Always remember that life time treasure means alot to the birthmother also. Don't forget about her.

Unitech MS100-4G Barcode Scanner
The Unitech MS 100 barcode wand is a cost-effective solution for low-volume barcoding applications. The advanced optics and electronic design convert barcode labels into a high-quality digital signal. Its shape gives the MS 100 the comfort and firm handling of a conventional ink pen. Just drag the tip of the wand across the barcode in either direction and listen for the "good read" beep to let you know the data has been successfully captured.
