NHL apologizes to fans via full-page ad
The NHL has issued a formal apology to fans via a full-page ad in today's Boston Globe.
A simple letter on a mostly white page (there's a silhouette of a crowded arena at the bottom) promises the league will make it up to fans.
It reads as follows:
Dear fans:
As your teams prepare for the opening face-off of the 2012-13 season, we thank you for your patience and we apologize to you for the time we missed. From today forward, we will do everything we can to make this season worth the wait.
We are committed to earning back your trust and support the same way it's earned on the ice: with hard work and unwavering dedication. Your cheers drive us forward, and we're committed to making you proud to be a fan – by delivering a game with the action, the skill and the intensity you deserve.
Like you, we've missed NHL hockey. We've missed the clutch goals, the big hits, the electrifying saves. We've missed the flash of red light, the sound of the siren and the way the building shakes when the home team scores.
It's time to focus on the best athletes in the world, on the enduring greatness of the game and – above all – on the connection that binds fans, players and families everywhere. NHL hockey is the best in the world. The future is incredibly bright. So let's drop the puck and marvel at all the remarkable things the players do with it.
With respect and appreciation,
The National Hockey League.
P.S. We hope you'll get in on the action. And again, thank you.
An NHL spokesman said the ad would appear Thursday or Friday in at least one major newspaper in each of the NHL's 30 markets, as well as selected "national" newspapers in the US and Canada.

Ring set in pink gold with diamonds
The subtle interpretation of the aesthetic of the line.
The ring's body has been streamlined and is inspired by the rope chain motif, an iconic visual code for Serpent Bohème.
The slender body offers the opportunity of wearing several rings together.
Frédéric Boucheron is born in 1831 into a family of clothiers. He breaks with family tradition at a young age to open his jewelry shop. Having learnt much about delicacy in materials, he begins to make his gold work as supple as the fabrics and lace of his childhood. Success is immediate and soon the whole of Paris is rushing to the door of his Palais Royal boutique. In 1893, he is the first jeweler to open a boutique Place Vendôme, making this place a showcase of savoir-vivre, savoir-faire and French elegance that has no equal in the world. It is Frédéric Boucheron's unique ability to capture the zeitgeist that also leads him to invent new ways of wearing jewelry. His success spreads abroad and the order books start to include the names of members of Royal families and later of Hollywood's biggest stars.Discover all of the Boucheron moments

Author Notes: My husband Mike writes the cocktail column for Edible Rhody magazine, and he and I were recently guests at a reception celebrating the release of the book "Edible: A Celebration of Local Foods" held at New Rivers restaurant here in Providence. As you can imagine, we enjoyed a wonderful array of local food and drink that evening, and one dish that my friend Jen and I kept going back for more of was a beautiful spring salad of tiny radishes, fiddleheads, and tender peas, barely dressed and studded with chive blossoms and slivers of mint. It was the kind of dish I love, subtle and elegant, as beautiful to look at as it was delicious, and I was eager to try to recreate it at home. We had an impromptu potluck with some neighbors last night, and one of my contributions was a version of that salad. I used slender asparagus in place of fiddleheads, but I suspect that blanched snap peas or even tender young green beans would work as well. —lastnightsdinner
Serves: 2-4
Kosher or sea salt
tablespoons rice wine vinegar
tablespoons grapeseed or other neutral oil
cup very thin asparagus, sliced on the bias into about 1-inch pieces
cup fresh peas, blanched
bunches tiny radishes (I used a variety called Cherry Belle), greens removed, trimmed and quartered
chive blossoms
big fresh mint leaves, fine chiffonade
- Put a pinch or two of salt into a mixing bowl, add the rice wine vinegar and whisk until the salt is dissolved. Whisk in the grapeseed oil until the dressing is emulsified.
- Add the asparagus, peas, and radishes to the bowl and gently toss. Separate the chive blossoms into individual little buds by pinching the blossoms off where the feathery stems connect to the chive. Just before serving, toss about half of the chive blossoms and the mint with the dressed vegetables and spoon the salad into a serving bowl, scattering the remaining chive blossoms over the top.

Brandi Glanville is having a rough week, and for the first time in a long time, it has nothing to do with ex-husband's wife LeAnn Rimes. After complaining of chest pain and nausea, the Real Housewife was brought to the hospital back in November where it was discovered that she had a benign tumor. Well, turns out surgery to get rid of the tumor is scheduled for this coming Wednesday. The star tweeted that it's been making her ill, but not to worry because the tumor isn't the "big C."
Even though it's benign, tumors can be scary no matter what. I'm sure it's unsettling for both Brandi and her family. Thinking about this whole thing gives me chills. I can't help but wonder, do I have anything to worry about? Now I'm starting to think it's time to make sure I get to that annual checkup.
OK, my personal health concerns aside, let's talk about why tumors form in the first place. There are a few different reasons why tumors may grow ranging from local injuries, inflammation, infection, and diet to stress or genetics. Abnormal growths in your body, tumors consist of old cells that don't die when they should and new cells that form when you don't need them, creating a large mass. And whereas most of the time these tumors don't need treatment and doctors simply watch the area to make sure they don't cause a problem, sometimes like in Brandi's case, they do.
Of course, the goal is to get rid of the hazardous lump without affecting the surrounding areas. It's a generally simple procedure that Brandi doesn't need to be too too worried about. Hopefully soon, she'll be fully recovered, feeling less "ill," and up to her old ways. My thoughts are with the reality star this week.
Have you ever had a tumor? Was it scary for you and your family?

A restaurant named after Marin's curvy "Star Route" One and Sir Francis Drake, the Elizabethan explorer who circumnavigated the globe and whose name is sprinkled across seaward landmarks such as Drake's Bay, firmly anchors itself to rural Marin while casting a glance to the sea. So it is with Sir and Star, the new restaurant at the Olema Inn.
Wearing the tri-cornered hat of owners, managers and chefs, Margaret Gradé and Daniel DeLong, familiar to many Marinites for their tenure in the kitchen at Manka's Inverness Lodge, purchased the inn last year, then set about remaking the space with their signature, resolutely local touch.
"Margaret started buying everything off the back of farmer's trucks more than 20 years ago," DeLong says. "She established the culture of buying direct from farmers." That includes the wines.
Except for champagne — "one of life's essentials," according to the menu — the 40-plus bottle list features only wines fashioned from Marin grapes, such as the McNeil & Sons Redding Ranch Pinot Noir ($82) or Kendric Vineyards Viognier ($63), and wines made in Marin such as the Trek Dry Creek Valley Syrah ($52) or one of the Sean Thackrey Orion Rossi Vineyard Syrahs ($185 for a 2010 or $415 for a 1989). Beers are exclusively from Lagunitas Brewery ($5 to $10).
Marin wines find their way into the savory dishes. Crafted into delicate syrup, Sean Thackrey's Pleiades ($38) makes a cool foil for the faux gras of local duck livers ($12). The metallic tang of North Coast sea salt matches the metallic tang of the butter-enriched organ and it's hard not to agree with the menu; "so delicious it should be illegal."
Gradé and DeLong get playful with a Bolinas duck egg propped atop a bubble and squeak salad ($12). Yes, the bacon's there as well as plenty of black pepper for your egg, but the expected frisée gets replaced by a crunch of cabbage. Same with the Marin-sourced salmon ($12), smoked with Thackrey's discarded oak wine barrels and crowned with sprigs of agretti, a wild marsh succulent discovered in Bolinas by a foraging friend.
Menu descriptions, lyrical as they are, can require a few questions of your server. When the dish is called "a deep bow to Dave of Marin Sun Farm beef cooked around the clock and the bounty of Bolinas gardens," ($20) a girl needs a little guidance. Too bad that our server tired very quickly of the inquiries and asked after each question, "May I place that order for you?" This made the meal seem rushed and unfriendly. (The dish was beef cheeks braised for more than 24 hours with carrots and spring onions, and was as moist and tender as any prime cut.)
Luscious parts of local pig ($20) was belly brined for three days then braised in the brining liquid for 10 hours and turned into softly baked meatballs in a tangy-sweet sauce. A side of simply the best broccoli ($5) was just too sweet, though; DeLong says it has already been taken off the menu.
Inquire about almost any detail of the menu or the décor and the source will be Marin. The water glasses, dented with the familiar punt of a wine bottle, are crafted locally. The gnarly vines hanging from the wall lamps are not vines, but cleaned and dried Pterygophora californica, stalked or walking stick kelp common to Bolinas. The four-room restaurant boasts floor-to-ceiling windows with views of the gardens, offset by cream walls and wide brown crown molding. Candelabras in each room and a huge fireplace in the front room add warmth. Freshly woven pussy willow branches, arched around doorways are a reminder of the season. Were it not for the butcher paper that dresses every table, you could be forgiven for thinking that Sir and Star at the Olema is the Downton Abbey of West Marin.
And that, in a sense is what Sir and Star is all about; an intensely local experience in a grand dame of a building, designed down to the last detail by the owner-manager-chefs to reflect their passion for place. The figurines on the hostess stand say it best: "We certainly are enamored with the Farmer Family." Can I get an amen?

Ars has learned that Apple will be closing down iTunes Connect over Christmas. Between December 24th and 27th, iTunes Connect will be unavailable to iPhone developers. If you plan to update applications, change marketing materials, or download reports, you're advised to do so before that time. The service should resume on Sunday, December 28th.
Checking into iTunes Connect is a regular event for many developers. It provides one-stop overviews of sales and performance, with day-to-day metrics on how each application is doing. Although the scheduled downtime is relatively short, it will certainly impact the way many companies track their products.
Could Apple be performing maintenance and upgrades instead of giving the staff a break? Ars cannot tell. The most likely explanation is that Apple is simply letting its employees take a well deserved holiday.

there's something really unique about the flex of an alaia. it rides super smooth and allows you to dynamically shape the rocker by where and how you stand on it. wrapping it in glass will rob you of that.
all you need is Paulownia wood and linseed oil. no glass, no wax
granted i don't do airs with mine, but i don't think that's where alaias excel. get a skim board for the skate stuff. riding alaia is all about the flex.

So where does one get paulownia wood?

If you can master your mind in order to master your body, anything is possible. I truly believe that objective thought is the key to success, so please put these suggestions to the test and see how you end up a year from now.
I've had a really big autumn so far; my youngest turned 4, my oldest turned 9, and I made it to 40. The biggest day of them all, however, came and went recently as my beautiful bride Andrea Jean and I celebrated our one-year wedding anniversary by renewing our vows.
Besides being the Machiavelli of Muscles during the day, I have an underlying, more noble objective; to love and care for my family before any other activity. Now, I know that we all think that we do our best; I'm just saying that this is all I've chosen to do.
No golfing, no hunting trips, no "me" time necessary for Trainer X. My "me" time is spent tickling my kids' bellies and happily making my wife laugh and feel safe. It is what I do, all I do, and because of this plan, I have 365 wonderful dates a year with the three people I love the most.
Of course, I still do all the things I'm about to tell you to do; I was giving you all a peek into my life for one reason. If you can master your mind in order to master your body, anything is possible. I truly believe that objective thought is the key to success, so please put these suggestions to the test and see how you end up a year from now.
You must exercise every single day, no matter what. You don't have to be a rocket scientist to figure out that a lack of exercise is a large contributor to obesity in this country. For 30 minutes (or more, if possible) every single day for the next year, foster the relationship between your determination and your physique by running, jumping, heaving, hoeing, stretching, spinning and yoga-ing in one way, shape or form. Period.
Cheat days are a thing of the past. Nothing tastes as good as looking good feels, as the saying goes. If, along the way, you need to have your favorite meal or snack, do it once every seven days. Not once on Friday and then again Saturday, as my friend Martha unwittingly confessed to me. You want to make a real difference in your life? Quit eating take-out and make every meal you eat.
Cut a toe off every time you make an excuse. I'm only partially kidding. Seriously, excuses are the bricks that make up the wall between you and success, and you're the bricklayer! Quit being your own worst enemy and start making changes each and every day, not excuses.
I have just finished the best year of my life, and you know what? The next one's going to be even better.

Legacy Recording Industry Claims Pandora Is Playing A 'Sick Joke' In Seeking The Same Rates Others Pay
from the really-now? deptThe ability of the record labels and RIAA front groups to flat out lie about the internet is really quite incredible. There's been some buzz recently about the crazy fact that Pandora just bought a small terrestrial radio station in South Dakota. Now, you might wonder, why would an innovative company that basically seems to be focused on making terrestrial radio stations obsolete need to own such a station... and Pandora is rather upfront in its answer: because the music collections societies, like ASCAP and BMI discriminate against internet companies, in direct violation of an antitrust agreement that ASCAP signed. Furthermore, ASCAP not only won't offer Pandora the same rights, but it engaged in highly questionable negotiation practices, such as refusing to tell Pandora what songs it was pulling the rights to, such that Pandora risked huge statutory awards for copyright infringement:
During negotiations, ASCAP and the publisher increased the pressure by refusing to provide Pandora the list of tracks that were being withdrawn, exposing Pandora to copyright infringement liability of up to $150,000 per work. At Pandora's scale, such liability would be enormous. Faced with such potential liability, Pandora negotiated an agreement that resulted in increased rates. Shortly thereafter, additional major publishers took steps to withdraw their catalogs from ASCAP, again with respect to Pandora.All of this is in direct violation of the antitrust agreement ASCAP has with the DOJ, in which it's supposed to make sure that ASCAP can't use its monopoly power over compositions to discriminate against certain players. Yet, ASCAP is clearly trying to discriminate against internet streaming services, by charging them significantly higher rates.
ASCAP created additional ways to circumvent its antitrust consent decree. Our motion also describes how ASCAP refused to provide Pandora a license under the same terms as the iHeartRadio service, for only one reason: iHeartRadio is owned by a terrestrial broadcaster.
So, Pandora has bought the station in order to get the same rates as other streaming radio stations that are owned by terrestrial stations. As Public Knowledge points out:
This is a perfect example of the twisted incentives and strange results we get from a music licensing system that is based on who wants a license instead of just what they want to do with the music they're using. This makes no sense. The law should treat like uses alike. Regardless of how high or low you think performance royalty rates for webcasting should ultimately be, there is no logical reason to give preferential rates to certain companies just because they arrived at the negotiation table first.And this is only about composition rates, not even getting into the rates that Pandora has to pay for sound recordings, which is infinitely higher than terrestrial radio. Buying the radio station won't help on that front, because the internet streams are charged differently than terrestrial radio no matter who owns it, but just the fact that it's paying different rates than everyone else seems ridiculous.
And, of course, the incumbents try to twist all of this. First up, we see that BMI has sued Pandora for buying the radio station. I'm not joking. I can't see on what possible grounds a lawsuit would make sense. Are they saying it's illegal for a company to seek to get the same rates that BMI offers radio stations?
But, even worse than that is the reaction of the RIAA front group, MusicFirst, a lobbying group set up by the RIAA and SoundExchange solely for the purpose of lobbying against internet companies and seeking ever higher rates for those companies, to make sure no internet music company can stay in business. That this is short-sighted and stupid never seems to occur to MusicFirst, who is always quick with a blog post arguing that internet companies are up to no good. In this case, it accuses Pandora of playing a "sick joke" in making this purchase:
This has to be some kind of sick joke. Pandora bought an FM radio station to game the system in order to pay songwriters less?Oh really now? It's a "sick joke" to try to get the same license rate that ASCAP and BMI offer terrestrial radio stations? How so? It's a "sick joke" that the company doesn't think it's fair for ASCAP and BMI to discriminate against internet streaming radio services? The only "sick joke" is MusicFirst pretending to represent artists as it seeks to kill off new and innovative internet services that are helping artists build bigger fan bases. No wonder the RIAA-funded MusicFirst has to resort to silly claims like this. The RIAA has never wanted to adapt to an internet world, and is, once again, looking to spread completely bogus propaganda in an attempt to stifle internet progress, which tends to help independent artists, such that they don't need the RIAA labels any more. What's incredible is that the RIAA, which set up MusicFirst, has it pretend to represent the interests of "artists" when it's never been anything more than a big-label front group. If there's any "sick joke" it would be MusicFirst's pretend concern for artist's rights, that just so happen to align entirely with the interests of the big labels.
Pandora continues to find new ways to give artists and songwriters a raw deal from the bottom of the deck. In their race to the bottom to see how little they can pay music creators, they have stooped to misleading legislation, bait and switch petitions, and now fronting as an FM radio station.
Meanwhile, David Israelite, the lobbyist for the music publishers has piled on as well, claiming that this is about Pandora "going to war with songwriters."
David Israelite, CEO of the National Music Publishers Association (NMPA), tonight interrupted his state-of-the-industry speech at the group's annual meeting in Manhattan to lash out at Pandora's decision to acquire a radio station in South Dakota. "Pandora is going to pursue lawsuits and gimmicks," Israelite told the hundreds of songwriters and composers in attendance. "Pandora is hoping to fraudulently sneak in the back door. Any shred of credibility that Pandora had is gone. They are at war with songwriters "Once again... huh? Asking for the same rates that radio pays to stream music online is "going to war"? How does that compute? It's as if the music publishers, collection societies and the RIAA can't help but lie because they have such distaste for Pandora actually figuring out a service that people like online, when they've spent so many years trying to ensure that online services fail. If there's any "war" going on here, it's the legacy recording industry against online services that fans seem to love.

Open science and hacking
This weekend sees developers and scientists converge in London for the first Wellcome Trust Hackathon. Kevin Fong tells us what a hack is and why we're running one around 'open'.
'Open' has become the new buzzword; openness the new ambition. It makes processes more transparent, engendering trust, offering a new line of defence against fraudulent practice. But it is more than a way of simply telling people that you're on the up and up.
We live in an age when we've begun to realise that the terabytes of information that literally fly through the air all around us should be put to better use. Somewhere, in all of that, lie answers waiting to be discovered, the raw material – perhaps – of revolutions in science and medicine.
It's an exciting time. The mass of hitherto sequestered data, now made available to all, has come to represent a virtual continent that might be explored, with no one really sure what prizes might lie in its interior.
But this is only the beginning. There is a job to be done in better organising and expressing content. There is suspicion to overcome, privacy to be respected and trust to won – especially when it comes to biomedical data. Patients have yet to be convinced that what they have to gain by sharing is greater than what they have to lose. Pioneers in this field have a duty to win their trust. That's part of the reason why we've organised this Wellcome Trust Hackathon around the theme of 'Open Science'.
'Hacking' has historically been regarded as the electronic equivalent of breaking and entering. The sort of thing one might get arrested for. But recently the term has come to mean something else.
The new 'Hacking' is about making objects, electronic platforms and software do things that their manufacturers perhaps never intended. It's about finding the hidden utility in things and realising the potential in everyday objects. At its best, hacking is an ingenious alternative use or a shortcut to make our lives easier. Hacking, in this sense, is an innovative and constructive pursuit.
Our hackathon invites developers and designers to explore ways that biomedical research data can be made accessible, interesting and useful to a wider public beyond the scientific community. Participants will spend the weekend developing mobile and web applications using publicly available research data, health data (such as those we collect and share through running apps and the like) and medical equipment.
Making research data widely available to the research community in a timely and responsible manner ensures that this data can be verified, built upon and used to advance knowledge and its application to generate improvements in health.
Part of the goal of this hack is to demonstrate something of what might be gained by individuals and organisations from a more open approach to the data they own and generate. What we might gain in better understanding the world around us and ourselves, simply by adding our information to the pot and allowing it to be used for the greater good.
Learning how to uncap the reservoirs of knowledge that we all possess and how to work across that information is the key to creating new and genuinely disruptive technologies. In medicine, I think, that is especially true. As with all exploration there is hazard to navigate. But if this can be accomplished there are great prizes to be won. The message is clear. Openness is the fastest way to the future.

As cities across the nation encourage people to ditch their cars in favor of a greener, healthier alternative, researchers are asking important safety questions about how best to incorporate bicycles into our motorized streets.
Along with pedestrians, bicyclists are known in highway safety parlance as "vulnerable road users" because, unlike vehicle occupants, they have no protective structure around them and are completely outmatched by motor vehicles in terms of mass. Cities are using a variety of approaches, including bike lanes, cycle tracks, shared lane markings, bike boulevards and bike boxes, to give bikes their own space on the road. Research points to some successes, but more study is needed to find out which of these things can entice more people onto bikes while keeping crashes down.
"Biking has obvious advantages over driving for people's health and the environment, but there's no getting around the fact that bicyclists are vulnerable," says David Zuby, the Institute's chief research officer and one of several employees who often bike to work. "If you're going to encourage biking, you have a responsibility to make it as safe as possible. At the same time, the safer it feels, the more people will be willing to give it a try."
Bicycles account for a small percentage of trips in the United States — just 1 percent in 2008, according to the National Household Travel Survey. However, biking is on the rise in some parts of the country, particularly in cities that have added bike lanes and other infrastructure in recent years. For example, in the District of Columbia, where the number of miles of bike lanes went from 2.7 in 2000 to 55.8 in 2012, more than 3 percent of residents regularly bike to work. In New York City, bicycle commuting more than doubled from 2007 to 2011, officials there say.
Compared with the total number of people who die on the nation's roads, the number of bicyclists killed in crashes with motor vehicles is tiny. A total of 675 bicyclists, or 2 percent of all traffic fatalities, were killed in 2011. That was up from 616 in 2010. It is too early to tell whether that was a one-year bump or the beginning of a longer-term trend, but if efforts to encourage biking are successful, the number of bicyclist fatalities also could be expected to rise. These statistics reflect a change in biking demographics, as adults increasingly use bicycles as a regular form of transportation. Deaths among bicyclists younger than 20 declined 87 percent from 1975 to 2011, while deaths among bicyclists 20 and older rose 167 percent. The vast majority of fatalities continue to be males.
About a quarter of fatally injured bicyclists age 16 and older have blood alcohol concentrations of 0.08 percent or higher. Impaired cycling is prohibited in some states, but little is known about whether these laws help. Whether or not the problem can be addressed directly, increased separation of bikes from traffic is arguably even more important in the case of bicyclists who have foggy judgment and slow reaction times as a result of drinking.
Fatality statistics tell only part of the story. Crashes not involving motor vehicles and those that take place in parking lots or other locations away from public roads usually aren't reported to police and aren't included in federal databases. A 1999 Federal Highway Administration study of bicyclists and pedestrians treated in emergency rooms found that 70 percent of the bicyclists had been injured in a crash not involving a motor vehicle, and 31 percent were injured in nonroadway locations. Bike-only crashes tend to be less serious than those involving vehicles, but a small number of them are fatal.
Bicyclist deaths by age and gender, 1975-2011
The most common way cities accommodate bicycles is by marking off bike lanes. These lanes vary in their width, and in some cases, parked cars are located to the right of the bike lane, leaving riders vulnerable to "doorings," when doors of parked cars swing open in their path. Other common problems include bike lanes that end abruptly or contain obstacles such as sewer gratings or potholes.
"It's not enough to simply mark off a bike lane," says Allan Williams, who recently reviewed bicycle and pedestrian literature for the Institute and previously served as chief scientist. "If it's not well designed and maintained, people won't use it, and it won't ensure safer travel."
Some researchers have reported crash reductions from bike lanes, but one recent study in New York City was more mixed. The authors looked at what happened after 43 miles of bike lanes were added from 1996 to 2006, comparing crashes on the bike-lane streets with crashes on similar streets that didn't get bike lanes. They found crashes involving bicycles increased with the bike lanes but not significantly, while crashes involving only motor vehicles decreased. The authors attribute the increase in crashes with bikes to a presumed increase in bicyclist exposure, although data on that weren't available. However, in general, biking became more common during that period, according to the city's data: The number of bicyclists entering the central business district increased 51 percent from 1996 to 2006 and 48 percent from 2006 to 2008.
The increase in bicycle crashes in New York City was largest at intersections. This isn't surprising, since intersections can be tricky places for bicyclists and vehicles to avoid each other, and 36 percent of bicyclist deaths across the U.S. during 2011 occurred in one. The bike lanes in the New York study had no intersection markings. They simply stopped before an intersection and picked up again afterward.
One feature that can be added to bike lanes to improve intersection safety is the bike box. This is a special section for bikes to stop at a red light. It is usually located in front of and to the right of the vehicle stop line. Bike boxes make bicyclists more visible and allow them to go first through an intersection. A study of bike boxes in Portland, Ore., found that vehicle encroachments beyond the stop line declined and yielding behavior improved.
Some cities have installed separate traffic signals for bicyclists that give them an advance green signal, but their effect on safety isn't known
Cycle tracks are bike lanes that are separated from vehicle traffic by physical barriers. A study of bicyclist injuries in Toronto, Ontario, and Vancouver, British Columbia, estimated injury risk on 14 route types and found that cycle tracks had the lowest risk — about one-ninth that of major streets with parked cars and no bike infrastructure. Injury risk on major streets with bike lanes — both with and without parked cars — was lower than on the non-bike-lane streets, but higher than on cycle tracks.
BIKE BOXES, such as the one pictured above, give bicyclists their own space to stop at red lights, allowing them to clear the intersection first and minimizing conflicts.
A CYCLE TRACK, above left is a bike lane separated by a physical barrier.
SHARROWS, above right, remind road users that bicyclists can use the full lane.
Some measures are aimed at getting bicyclists and motorists to share the same space more amicably. Shared lane markings, or "sharrows," tell drivers to expect bicyclists and remind all road users that bicyclists may ride in the center of the lane. A 2011 study using video footage found that sharrows in three cities increased operating space for bicyclists and reduced sidewalk riding.
Bicycle boulevards, meanwhile, are networks of side streets that parallel major roads. These roads are used by motor vehicles but not as frequently as the main roads and are designated as preferred routes for bikes. They have pavement markings indicating their bike boulevard status and often include traffic-calming features such as speed humps and partial road closures that make it impossible for vehicles to drive the full length of the street. In Berkeley, Calif., rates of bicycle-vehicle collisions were lower on seven bicycle boulevards than on parallel urban arterials.
Such innovations clearly need to be publicized in the community if they are to work, Williams says. "When Portland introduced bike boxes, it educated bicyclists and drivers through billboards, fliers, posters and an enforcement campaign. As a result, the bike boxes were well received and understood," he says.
Not all options for improving bicyclist safety involve paint on pavement. Helmets, for instance, have been estimated to reduce the risk of head injuries to bicyclists by 85 percent, but no state requires them for adults. Such a requirement would improve safety, but some worry it would discourage biking. Only 15 percent of fatally injured bicyclists in 2011 were wearing helmets.
Twenty-one states and the District of Columbia require young bicyclists to use helmets. Helmet laws for children don't lead to increased helmet use among adults, studies show. However, one question that hasn't been answered is whether children required by law to wear helmets are more likely to wear them when they become adults.
Bicyclists can make themselves easier to spot with lights and reflective clothing. A recent study in Denmark found that daytime running lights on bikes reduced crashes by 17 percent compared with a control group. New types of lighting on vehicles and night-vision systems also could help drivers spot bicyclists and pedestrians more easily at night. A recent Highway Loss Data Institute study found that vehicles equipped with steering-responsive adaptive headlights had fewer crashes involving other vehicles, as well as a reduction in the frequency of at-fault injury claims. It is unknown how much this benefitted cyclists (see "They're working: Insurance claims data show which new technologies are preventing crashes," July 3, 2012).
Broader efforts to reduce vehicle speeds in urban areas are likely to help bicyclists, as well as pedestrians. Slowing down vehicles lessens the severity of collisions. In addition, it likely prevents some crashes by giving drivers and bicyclists more time to react and by decreasing vehicle stopping distances. Lowering speed limits, narrowing roads and installing speed cameras are all known to reduce vehicle speeds, but more research is needed into their effects on bicycle crashes.
People riding bikes are vulnerable when they share the roads with cars. As cities encourage bicycling, they also need to work to make it as safe as possible.

A pick up truck traveling on the northbound 2 Freeway veered off the highway this afternoon and tumbled across an Echo Park street, injuring five passengers, including three children. The white, Nissan Tundra landed upright on Allesandro Street near Whitmore Avenue after crashing through some brush and plunging more than 100 feet from the onramp, said CHP Officer R. Myrie. The truck did not strike any persons or vehicles on the street that parallels the freeway.
It's not clear what caused the truck to drive off the freeway, and no information was available about the nature of the victims' injuries.
Zimry Sanchez, who pulled three children from the back seat of the truck, said the children and the two women in the front of the truck were bloodied but conscious when he and other Allesandro Street residents emerged from their homes after hearing the truck tumble across the street.
A woman named Maria came out of her home and "saw something that was rolling over and over with a lot of smoke. Then I saw it was the truck."
Allesandro was closed to traffic as the CHP conducted an investigation.

In my last post, "Christmas Came Early To My Genealogy Land," I wrote about a new family connection provided by my wife's 4th cousin, Fraser Laschinger. Fraser and I had connected after he had left a comment on a blog post about Canadian Senator Samuel Merner, an ancestor he shares with my wife. Following a series of emails and 'snail mail' exchanges, here is how the Laschinger family branch was uncovered.
The information that Fraser had, compiled several years ago by Laschinger family members, indicated that Mary Merner (or Muerner) married Joseph Laschinger, probably around 1845. Mary Merner was the younger sister of my wife's great great grandmother, Anna Merner. Although I have yet to find a record of the marriage (it pre-dates civil registration in the Province of Ontario (or Canada West as it was known at the time), there are many records showing Joseph and Mary together as husband and wife along with their twelve known children. In fact, the 1851 Census of Canada West (the census was actually delayed and not actually taken until January 1852) records that Joseph and Mary Laschinger were living in Wilmot Township, Waterloo County, Canada West with their eldest three children. Their immediate neighbours were Jacob and Susanna Merner, Mary Laschinger's parents.
Although Joseph's occupation is listed as carpenter in the 1851 census records, the family eventually moved to New Hamburg in Waterloo County where subsequent census records and directories record that Joseph farmed his property as a living. Joseph passed away in 1881 at the age of 61 years and was buried in New Hamburg's Riverside Cemetery. His wife, Mary (Merner) Laschinger died of pneumonia in 1899 in Elmira, Waterloo County.
Of their twelve known children, I have found evidence so far that at least seven married and I have found evidence of 84 descendants. I am certain there are many more to be found across all parts of Canada and the United States. The search continues ...

Please keep the 2011 calendar in mind so that we don't have to scramble come November, 2010.
(the following is mostly the same post from last year because I'm too lazy to re-type the whole thing)
I would like to thank Christine (amazincc) and Bob (pit$bull) for offering to help gather pictures for next year's calendar. Many (if not most!) of you will be hearing from them to get full size versions of the pictures that you have posted. I simply don't have the time to hound people for pictures, and they are more than willing to help me out in that department! So you might as well email the pictures when asked, I don't always remember to follow up... but they will!
I'd love to have an even larger selection of pictures for the individual calendar next year. I am very selective on the size and composition of the photos for the individual, so we will be keeping our eyes out for potential images over the course of the year. We have had more than a few non-forum members buy the calendar so I'd like to appeal to a larger audience and high quality is mandatory.
The first, and most important, criteria, is the size of the photo. It is impossible to enlarge a small, low resolution picture to a large, high resolution picture. Literally impossible. After the size, it is the focus (I really hate using blurry pictures in any of the calendars). After the focus it is the composition; especially for the individual one.
As people see good shots in the gallery (or elsewhere) please post in that thread to remind the original poster to email me the picture. Not everyone checks this thread, so telling them in the actual thread makes more sense. Let them know that you think the shot would be good for the calendar - whether it is the "multi" or individual. Too many fantastic pictures of the dogs get "lost" as the months pass. You don't have to post only your dog, if you notice a great picture of someone else's just say "that's a great picture!!! send it in for the calendar!!!" then refer them to this thread.
The calendars and the shirts are the main financial support of the forum, with the staff making up the difference!
As you take pictures that you like of your dog(s) please email them to me as LARGE as you can - email@example.com PLEASE, name your picture the name of your dog!!!!!! It was hard for me to keep track of which dogs I had already used, and as I got more frusterated with the pictures this year I started to give up on the ones that were not named correctly. The emails sometimes bounce if they are too large, so keep them to around 5 mb or so. If in doubt, only attach one picture per email.
I repeat....
This year, the images that I get that don't have the dog's name in the file name are going to be deleted. I'm not going to even down load them to my computer, I'm going to delete the email without even looking at the picture. These calendars take a LOT of time and a LOT of effort. It takes you exactly 3 seconds to change a file name, it takes me HOURS to make calendars, if you can't bother to spend 3 seconds of your time to make my life just a little easier while I make the calendars, well, then you won't be seeing your dog in them.
Send the largest version of the images that you have. I have plenty of room in my email account, so don't scale them or change them. If the file is under 2 mb it's probably not big enough for the "one up" calendar, but I can probably use them for the "collage" calendar.
The easiest way for you to get me the full size is to send me the picture file from your camera. Photobucket and other online sites scale them. Your original files are on your computer where ever your picture software puts them when you download them. You can find that info in the preferences for the picture program, or just do a search. Most of those programs create a small version of the picture for fast viewing (and that is NOT big enough for me to use) but then access the large one for printing. Trust me on this one!!
I'd like to detail why we didn't end up with a collage calendar for 2009 or 2010.
When it was time to put it together this year, I put all of the pictures together in a folder. I then sort them into month folders, then open them and start arranging.
Here's the problem... well over half of the 200 or so pictures were NOT named with the dog's names. So I ended up with the same dogs over and over and over. After a while all of the dogs begin to blur together. Frustration sets in, I close the files and stop working. I start again a day or so later. My patience runs out faster each time. I finally just gave up.
I LIKE THE PROJECT. I am NOT complaining about the project itself. However, it is a nightmare when I don't get just that little tiny bit of help from all of you.
My goal every year has been to do themes for every month. A month with kids, one with snow, spring, fall, sports, sleeping, clowning around, etc but that's hard because I don't always have enough of one topic. I don't mind having dogs in the calendar multiple times if we do themes, but if people don't mind going even one step further, that would be awesome! When you go to change the name of your picture to (for example) inara.jpg, instead change it to inara_sleeping.jpg! Then I know what dog it is AND what she's doing! One extra word might just make all the difference!
Of course, themes might not work again, it all depends on the number of pictures that we get, but I'll give it a go!
PLEASE, look through your picture folders! Send in LOTS! but send in the BIG ones! The ones FROM YOUR CAMERA! There is plenty of room in that email inbox, I promise. If you get a bounce, let me know, but you shouldn't.
If you are using iPhoto - You need to go to the folder where iPhoto puts your originals, those are the ones I need. When you email directly from iPhoto, it sends a scaled down version. So you'll have to attach the full size picture directly from your email program and not use the mail feature in iPhoto itself. You can search for the file name to find it, let me know if you can't locate it, I'll dig around on my Mac and see where mine are, but I'm not sure that they will be in the same place on yours.
Thank you!
Michelle, Christine and Bob

RENO, Calif. – With a pair of home runs, UC Santa Barbara completed the sweep at the Nevada Classic with a 4-2 win over Seattle.
The Gauchos' record stands at 15-5 after downing the Red Hawks for the second time this weekend, while Seattle falls to 10-14.
Jenessa Jeppesen, who made the start at third base, then singled to center field to give her team the 1-0 lead. Emily Brucelas followed that at bat with by grounding out to the pitcher, which gave Lauren Boser the chance to score.
The Red Hawks were able to find the scoreboard at the bottom of the second after a wild pitch Andriana Collins sent a runner home. Collins bounced back quickly and ended the inning with a strike out and a lineout to right field.
Carrying a one-run lead, the Gauchos tacked on another run thanks to a lead off homer from Boser in the top of the fourth. The first baseman is the team's leading slugger (.500) and has recorded the most extra base hits with eight.
Two innings later, UCSB's lead was cut to 3-2 after Seattle hit a solo shot of its own. Jenessa Jeppesen decided to get in on the home run action and sent a ball flying over the left field wall to put the Gauchos up by two.
After tossing five innings, Collins finished with the win and held the Red Hawks' offense to just a pair of runs. Shelby Wisdom came in for relief and picked up her first save of the season. The junior initially loaded the bases with one out when she entered the circle. However, Wisdom used her infield and forced Seattle into a double play to get the Gauchos out of the pinch.
In the bottom of the seventh, Wisdom hit the first batter but then recorded three consecutive outs to end the game.
Santa Barbara will take its four-game winning streak back to Campus Diamond next week when it hosts the Gaucho Classic II. Tournament play will begin on Thursday when UCSB plays Utah State at 3 p.m. Tickets for all of next weekend's games are available at the Ticketing Office in the Intercollegiate Athletics Building, over the phone at 805.893.UCSB (8272), and online here.

As the deadline approaches for new anti-money laundering and terrorist financing laws to take effect, an Auckland lawyer has started a business to help small entities get up to speed.
From June 30 next year, financial institutions and casinos will face new obligations under the Anti-Money Laundering and Countering Financing of Terrorism Act AML/CFT.
Financial service businesses of all sizes will have to meet a range of requirements, such as providing risk assessments and compliance plans.
Mark Todd, a partner with commercial law firm Bell Gully, said he realised late last year that smaller entities were going to struggle to meet their obligations.
"We knew that large businesses like the banks were completely across this, with large teams of consultants and spending literally tens of millions of dollars to become compliant," Todd said.
"But a completely different approach had to be found to meet the needs of smaller businesses."
He and business partner Richard Manthel recently launched Anti-Money Laundering Solutions Limited (AML), offering businesses a range of web-based customised products, as well as auditing and consulting services.
"We think for a lot of the smaller businesses, it's a really complex area and it will be tricky for them to get up to speed on their own.
"For a very small entity, it's also very expensive."
The whole system is based online, which gives clients a "do it yourself alternative" to traditional consulting, Todd said.
"We know that businesses need to minimise compliance costs and our entire approach is based on using technology and innovative business systems to generate efficiencies for our clients."
Todd said he had been with Bell Gully for 15 years and was finishing up in a few months to focus on AML Solutions, at least in the short-term.
The Financial Markets Authority (FMA) describes money laundering as a method used by criminals to disguise money obtained illegally, such as through drugs.
Financers of terrorism use similar methods as money launderers to avoid detection, the FMA said on its website.
The FMA said the new obligations on businesses are fair and that the authority has been working with market participants to help them through the transition process.
Businesses should get their risk assessment and AML/CFT programme in place well ahead of June 30, it said.
According to the Transparency International Corruption Perceptions Index, New Zealand is one of the least corrupt nations on earth.
In one of a series of videos AML is running on its website, the host said no-one knew how much money was laundered in New Zealand.
"However, it could be somewhere between $1 billion and $4 billion each year," she said.
Three supervisors - the FMA, Department of Internal Affairs, and Reserve Bank - are overseeing implementation of the new laws and have been running a series of seminars.
