 you use may be significantly different than somebody who may be taking an occasional trip or one time. They're not sure they're going to do it again.
There are a lot of resources available online and the some of them are really great. One of the articles I found was how to fly with your bike. Bicycling magazine has some great information in it, some great articles, and of course finally I think one of the other options is simply arrive at your destination and rent a bike. I talked to Patty Huff about that just this week. it's never quite the same getting on a rental bikes. Rental bikes vary with the vendor. Some are really great, well taken care of. Others not so much, so there's nothing quite like getting on your own bike. The other thing you might consider is shipping your shoes, your pedals and your seat in order to get probably as close as you can to your own setup and comfort on a rental bike when you arrive at your destination.
So those are some thoughts for traveling with your bike. I hope you find them helpful. There's a world of options out there from touring on your own to bike and barge tours. It's just a lot of things that are available for us right now. This is a great season and opportunity to do it. And I hope that you'll, I'd like to hear back from people who've listened to this broadcast and let us know what your feedback about what you find useful. I'd like to put out maybe a resource that we could use the people might find helpful when they're preparing to go overseas. It's nothing like having the personal comments of individual writers and viewers of our live stream to add sort of their own weight to the things we're talking about.
We've got an offer for you today. Hey Henry, how are you doing? I appreciate your appreciate your encouragement. I appreciate you giving us a shout out this morning. So we're gonna give away our phone wallet. Anybody who wants it, this goes on the back of your phone. it's great and it's shamelessly logoed so that you have my number with you in case you ever need it. There's a Bitly link to Kati's kinda put across the screen, a screener already it's done. So right now I think so if you go to that bet label link, we'll get this out to you right away.
I hope you found our program helpful. If you have an idea for a program, let me know. If you have suggestions on how to improve our broadcast, let me know that as well. So be safe out there and I'll see you on the road. Take care. It's Jim Dodson, The Florida Bike Guy.The.
Find the answers to the questions below:
It’s very difficult, especially when political power changes hands a lot.
Yes, absolutely. The goal is for the position to eventually not be necessary, if the resilience strategies serve their purpose.
Strategies often deal with crisis management, and it’s unlikely that something would hit a city that they’re not prepared for. By having resilience officers engage with government, just the dialogue helps a city react and respond.
We don’t have metrics yet, but we’re starting to catalog and monitor implementation of projects that are aimed at reforming and changing building codes and regulations, especially with respect to recent disasters.
Cities have to apply to get into the network and have to show a strong commitment to the work, but we have recently been thinking about tools that could be provided to cities that are not in the network. Neighboring cities of network cities have more and more been asking those cities for help, which is a great sign of “training the trainer”.
Unfortunately, I don’t know enough about that work. But a lot of city leaders in the developing world actually still don’t have a seat at the table, and the challenge is to get central governments to give them that platform.
To help cities be more resilient, we have to work at the metro then the region level. Now that the organization has clusters of cities near each other, the next step is to build community progress at the regional level. The push now is for African cities to join together for one African voice, and same goes for other specific regions, to represent their goals and identities.
The thesis has always been that poor and marginalized are most affected by disasters. Questions of informality are becoming more frequent. Unless cities start recognizing their informal and marginalized communities and working with them in a productive manner, they won’t be able to fix their larger problems. There has always been a push to formalize, but recently there has been talk that there may be another way.
Our grant covers two years. The CROs are employed by the city governments, so the grant really focuses on making sure the positions keep going, by working within the community to make sure the position is significant enough for the city to maintain. Early data says that cities see the value of these positions and are working to either fund or integrate the positions into the government.
The biggest one is money. There aren’t enough resources to incentivize the implementation. Having a good idea is not as great as having a good project. Almost at the pre-feasibility stage is where the roadblock exists. Political change and transitions also really throw some strategies to the wind. Cities have to realize that the CROs can’t do the work themselves, and so actions must come from existing city departments too. Increasingly, cities are learning that resilience is about communities coming together in times of crisis. There are inspiring stories across the network. And even the smallest cities have a huge contribution to make to urban sustainability.Columbia Mill

The Columbia Mill is a former grist mill on Cedar Creek in Cedarburg Wisconsin, in the United States. The mill was built in 1843 by Dr. Frederick A. Luening.
History.
Early operation.
The Columbia Mill was the first mill to be built on Cedar Creek, and several others would be built in the following years, forming the local area's early industrial economy. While the mill was initially successful, overall it had a troubled history. The mill was sold nine times before 1900; notably it was owned by Joseph Trottman from 1853 to 1864, who would later have an interest in the Hilgen and Wittenberg Woolen Mill, which was located upstream. It was also partially owned by Ernst Hilgen, the nephew of Cedarburg Founder Frederick Hilgen, from 1864 to 1874.
The mill also suffered from flooding issues. Soon after completion, settlers upstream complained about flooding on Cedar Creek, and the dam was torn down and rebuilt further downstream. In addition, in 1881 the mill's dam washed out during heavy spring flooding and was rebuilt some time later; it was also rebuilt again in 1914.
20th century.
In 1910 the mill had a capacity of 100 barrels per day. In 1926 the mill was bought by the Wire and Nail Company, whose mill is located just downstream, for use of the mill's hydropower. In 1939 the Highland Avenue Bridge above the mill's dam and millrace was rebuilt as a PWA project for the City of Cedarburg.
From the 1960s through the 1970s, a sewer carried waste oil including PCBs from Mercury Marine's Cedarburg factory to the Ruck Pond above the Columbia Mill Pond. The contamination was also carried downstream to the Columbia Mill Pond where it settled into the sediment of the millpond.
Decline.
Through the 1970s, the mill fell into disuse and disrepair and was demolished in the 1970s and a bank was built in its place, with the dam and millrace remaining. In 2017, PCB-contaminated sediment was dredged from the millpond in a large scale effort to clean up Cedar Creek. In 2019 the City of Cedarburg completed significant repairs to the remaining dam and millrace to increase the dam's capacity.When sand or gravel is unsupported by a block beneath it, it falls to the ground. This is achieved using a block update. When sand or gravel receives a block update, it checks to see if it has a block underneath it. If it does not, it disappears and creates a sand or gravel entity. This then moves to the ground and disappears, producing a solid sand or gravel block on supporting ground. This process usually takes about one tick (0.1 seconds) to calculate.
However, this process is heavily delayed. In some cases it can take up to 3 seconds for an unsupported sand or gravel block to respond to this. Further, it can take the same amount of time to revert to a sand or gravel block again.
This can be caused by numerous problems, however the most obvious and also the most common is lag, which can be located on the client, server or both.
On the client side it can be caused by congestion, where numerous programs are running at once and causing a performance spike. It can also be caused by router congestion where internet download and upload speeds are reduced because of the high use if internet-related tasks.
On the server side this lag can be caused by congestion also, where high amounts of players are connected. Server side lag can also be caused often by excessive redstone use, which can be seen most easily in servers that control functions using clocks and complex circuits.
In conclusion, entity delay is mostly a lag-related effect but many other causes are present.
We went swimming in a secret bourgeois pool with two waterslides and a diving board and an island. We drank José Cuervo and did loud cannonballs. I did a turtle. We didn’t get caught. Then we went dancing.
It is the summer solstice and my body, predictably, felt the need to tell
