Will the disc brake debacle influence what bike you buy next?
Will you be buying a disc road bike or has the recent news put you off?
Disc brakes are in the spotlight at the moment, but for all the wrong reasons. The UCI has swiftly halted its year-long trial following an accident at Paris-Roubaix, and now they've been banned from French sportives like L'Etape.
What's next for disc brakes? Is this a temporary blip in the rollout of disc brakes in the professional peloton and will the trial resume shortly, or is it a dead end for disc brakes in racing? To be honest, we've no idea, we'll have to wait and see what the UCI decides to do.
What is interesting is whether all of this will have an impact on the sales of disc brake road bikes. Will potential customers be put off buying a disc-equipped road bike? Disc road bikes have been selling very well in the UK in recent years and we're seeing more interest in them all the time, as well as simply seeing more of them on British roads.
It's clearly a divisive matter, even before this latest fiasco. To try and get an idea of how much all of this will impact the buying decisions of cyclists, we put this question out to road.cc readers on our Facebook page. The replies were very interesting and it's clear people are split, some will still be buying disc brakes regardless of whether the pros are using them, but some people do look to have changed their mind, proving that for many, it does matter what equipment the professionals use.
Karl Watson: Nope. Had my De Rosa Idol Disc for over a year now. There is no going back. Took my old bike (no discs) out for a spin last weekend. Difference is huge!
Leigh Coulson: If I have the cash my next carbon road bike will most likely have discs. Already have them on my commuter/tourer/winter bike ...Genesis Croix de Fer.
Neil Sweetcheeks Marsh: Don't see how racing can dictate? If no one turns up to races - those with discs - BC will soon wise up, as their income from Race Licences/Entries drop like a stone. Someone should set up a DISC-ONLY racing programme!
Yong Ling: It may. If I were to choose ONLY one type of road bike in terms of brake type, I'd pick one with disc brakes.
Ben Kelly: Nope. Buying a disc-brake bike next. Especially for the increased clearance/bigger tyres.
Todd McDowell: No, after seeing what's possible in modern MTB disc braking systems (have you tried Shimano's Ice-Tech?), I want the same level of performance on a new road bike. Once you try it, there's no going back.
Ben Clay: Definitely not going to let the UCI/FFC morons dictate what bike I buy. Already committed for La Marmotte this year so looks like I will have to hire a bike, but after that I will only give my entry fees to events that allow discs to be used.
John Palin: Just ordered a Cannondale CAAD12 with disc brakes. Embrace change.
Peter Naylor: Yes - was going to get a new disc brake bike before the Marmotte but there's no point now as I won't be able to use it.
Nelluc Nairb: Yes I have now been discouraged from buying a disc road bike. Ill still run them on MTBs though.
David Conroy: No, but then my next road bike is years away by then who knows what new fad will have taken over for now I'm happy riding in the wet or dry with 105 calipers decent cables and decent tyres.
David Lowis: No, I will keep with rim brakes, as I brought a set of Fulcrum Zero's for a good price, ready for my new bike.
Gary Fodden: Yep! Won't buy a disc bike that you can't even ride in sportives! Who's going to ban them next?
Which camp do you fall into? Will your next bike have disc brakes or will you stick with rim brakes?

In 2010, SAP raised the bar on enterprise-class data management and analytics when we introduced SAP HANA, the first data platform to deliver real-time analytics on live transactions.
As an in-memory database, the data in SAP HANA could be stored in RAM instead of hard disk for faster access to data in multicore CPUs. Memory reads were a million times faster than conventional databases. Transactional systems no longer had to be separated from analytics systems for operational reporting, so data was always real time and up to date.
Nine years later, SAP HANA is in use by major organizations around the world. Demand is unprecedented for SAP solutions overall. And now our commitment to market-leading innovation continues with the latest release of SAP HANA.
SAP HANA is the latest evolutionary step and adds a variety of innovative features. It simplifies and democratizes the in-memory computing environment so many more people in an organization can use it to get answers and insights. Numerous other features contribute to a lower total cost of ownership (TCO), improved scale and data reliability, an enhanced user experience, and much more.
The new tiered storage feature lets you deploy a multi-temperature storage strategy with optimized data tiering capabilities so you can increase data capacity of SAP HANA at a low TCO. This new data tiering option, SAP HANA native storage extension, provides simple, scalable data tiering for all data types and workloads. Administrators can optimize data placement to achieve an optimal cost-versus-performance ratio to support their business priorities with more cost effectiveness. A data tiering advisor maintains database access pattern statistics and provides the user with recommendations on which database objects — such as tables, columns, partitions — to tier to warm storage.
The 2.3 release of SAP HANA in early 2018 introduced the first major database platform optimized for the full potential of Intel® Optane™ DC persistent memory. On April 2, 2019, Intel announced general availability of this technology, which is a major advancement in data storage hierarchy and will have major benefits for SAP HANA customers. We have continued our industry leadership with further improvements in our latest release. To adopt this technology, you’ll need the latest hardware and at least SAP HANA 2.3, but no application changes are required so there is no disruption.
Intel® Optane™ DC persistent memory provides large affordable capacity, with data persistency in a dual inline-memory module (DIMM) form factor. Because of our optimized use of persistent memory, it delivers much higher memory capacity and persistent storage of the data with near DRAM-like performance. Data stays in memory when the system is powered off, which enables dramatically faster data loads at startup. With SAP HANA and persistent memory, we deliver a game-changing way to manage more data in real time, at a lower cost, and with improved business continuity.
With persistent memory, SAP HANA can manage larger data sizes at in-memory speed. In an internal benchmark that SAP performed with Intel, we saw a 12.5x improvement in SAP HANA startup time when using Intel persistent memory compared to a traditional DRAM and an SSD configuration.
A new table distribution capability provides administrators with the tooling to identify performance-optimized distribution of tables and partitions in an SAP HANA scale-out landscape. The administrator can define rules based on application semantics to control the data location in SAP HANA.
Combined with the enhanced data tiering functionality, these capabilities help ensure the best performance in SAP HANA scale-out clusters while balancing memory and CPU consumption reducing network traffic between nodes.
To help enforce data privacy, enhance governance, and support compliance with regulations, SAP HANA lets you analyze all data while keeping sensitive information private. New audit retention policies address compliance requirements and increase transparency for decision makers when they are choosing anonymization parameters. Delivered key performance indicators (KPIs) help you measure critical variables such as risk.
Now you can access and democratize remote data with or without data movement for a full view of the enterprise. Integration via a Spark controller with Hadoop clusters supports high-availability mode and a DLM utility to expose SAP HANA cold data to a Hive table. A generic adapter framework enables enterprises to connect to any ODBC or JDBC data source, which ensures that you can now connect to any data source in real time. DDL support for remote source enhances change management by centralizing change procedures in SAP HANA to remotely create objects in the target system.
SAP HANA supports spatial clustering using rectangular grids, clustering, and density-based spatial clustering of applications with noise (DBSCAN). And now it is the only database to support hexagon clustering. This method of clustering spatial data provides a better way to get insights from relational spatial data. It allows for curvature representation and is ideal for showing connectivity or movement paths. Hexagonal clustering is extremely useful for all spatial data processing in all industries that utilize spatial capabilities.
Hexagon clustering is a technique to process geospatial data for identifying and visualizing things such as escape routes that avoid hazards in emergency situations or the optimal paths for utility pipelines that avoid restricted areas. Developers can use it easily in new applications and combine it with other SQL predicates. Only SAP offers this capability, and it is laborious to implement in other relational databases using the basic geospatial functions. With SAP HANA, developers can use a single SQL query to process millions of geo-coordinates in seconds and cluster them effectively. To achieve this result, we use the geospatial and graph capabilities of SAP HANA. Using hexagonal clustering provides an effective way to aggregate information by reducing sampling bias and returns results faster than machine learning clustering algorithms, which are iterative.
SAP HANA now provides native Python and R machine learning APIs. In the past, data scientists could only access data via a standard SQL interface to SAP HANA. This limited how they could access the data and the powerful capabilities within SAP HANA. Now, with the native machine learning APIs for Python or R, data scientists can be much more productive with easy access to data in SAP HANA and the powerful native machine learning algorithms from within their favorite Python or R environments, like Jupyter™ Notebook.
We have also added support for leveraging R algorithms directly from within SAP HANA, streaming analytics. This enables the reuse of what you’ve already built in R and expands the available algorithms for streaming data use cases. These enhancements, along with the continued addition of new native machine learning algorithms, will enable you to continue to build more intelligence into your applications to gain more insight from all your data.
New methods of linear referencing and geometry editing of spatial data are provided for the collection, simplification, scale, and editing of large data sets. To accelerate innovation in the cloud, we added the new modeler and labeling tool in our spatial services. The modeler allows customers to build custom models with statistical models based on Earth observation data. This allows for easy access to information and gives customers an easy way to derive new information by creating, for example, a statistical model on top to analyze moisture stress index for monitoring health level of crops. In the machine learning-powered labeling tool, customers can train classifiers by labeling different areas in satellite images, such as a city or agriculture lands. One SAP customer is utilizing this tool to automate imagery classification on a larger scale for land cover or use classification.
SAP HANA includes an array of features to enhance and simplify the user experience. For administrators providing built-in recommendations for further system optimization, there is workload management and data tiering. When it comes to modelling and application development, we have simplified many activities with new dialogs and wizards and added support for the cloud spplication programming to let developers focus on the business solution they are building instead of the technical aspects of the solution. These features help to increase the efficiency of database and data life-cycle management, modelling, and application development. They continue to help IT organizations reduce time to value and improve IT operational efficiency.
Again, these features are just some of what you can expect from the latest SAP HANA release.
Dirk Basenach is senior vice president of SAP HANA Development at SAP.

Hospice is a service, in your home or another setting, that provides pain and symptom management, psychosocial and spiritual support, so that you are able to have your best day possible with a life-limiting illness. By supporting you in all of these ways and keeping you comfortable, hospice care allows you to focus on your quality of life.
Hospice is not just for the patient enrolled in services. In fact, hospice supports the entire family. Hospice agencies are able to provide respite to tired caregivers as well as provide emotional support through social workers, clergy, and volunteers. A hospice doctor and nurse will be on call 24 hours a day to give you and your family support whenever you need it.
Enrolling in hospice services does not prevent you from continuing to visit with your doctor with whom you have formed a relationship. Your doctor can speak directly to the hospice agency or you can go check in with your doctor as you are able.
One of the great benefits of hospice is that it brings the pharmacy to you. This means no more running out to get medications, potentially to multiple pharmacies. Hospice can adjust your medications as needed, in real time. This reduces another burden on you and your family. Hospice agencies will also quickly deliver durable medical equipment such as a wheelchair or hospital bed.
Once enrolled in hospice, a patient is approved for two 90-day periods. If they need to be re-certified after 6 months to continue services, that is completely fine. I have known patients who have been enrolled with a hospice provider for over a year. Alternatively, if a patient changes their mind and decides that they would like to pursue treatment or stop hospice services for any reason, it is also ok to do so.
Hospice is able to provide ongoing support to family and friends after the death of a patient. Hospices offer one on one support as well as bereavement groups, among other resources.
Hospice services are a benefit you have a right to under Medicare. Once you enroll in hospice services, the Medicare hospice benefit should cover everything you need.
If you have any questions about hospice, now is the time to ask your care team. Having these discussions with your loved ones can reduce stress at a later time if you are able to make your wishes known now. The goal of hospice is to provide compassionate and high quality care at the end of life, something which every person is entitled to. For more information about hospice, check out the National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization.

Silverback Volvo Rider, Henry Liebenberg, U23 set off to the USA for two and a half weeks to race in America’s well known mountain bike races.
After having a great build up to his 2018 racing season he was hit with a huge nasal operation followed by a viral infection which took him a while to recover and get back on his race machine.
His trip was planned months ago and for him to miss this would of left him devastated. Fortunately he was able to train for a few weeks before jetting off to the States, “even though it was not my best form - my main objective was to go to the US in the best form of my life,” says Henry.
At his first training session before the Fontana UCI American cup #1 he started to feel a bit under the weather. His first race was affected by this but he stayed focused and quickly shook it off.
The second leg of the Bonelli UCI American cup #2 went well but he was hoping for better, “I decided it was mind over matter. I was going to aim as high as I could despite having bumps and struggles these last few months, “ adds Henry.
At this stage in to his journey, he hoped that everything gets back on track. He treated himself to some tourist activities like visiting Hollywood.
Next up was the famous World Premier Cycling Festival, The Sea Otter Classic which consisted of different disciplines. He participated in a short course and XCO race, “I had two amazing days, coming 31st elite in the short track and 32nd elite in the XCO race the following day,” said Henry.
Henry made many friends that were intrigued by his Silverback,”many people are not familiar with Silverback in the US, but everyone loved the look of the bike,” says Henry.
He received lots of support from the locals on the sideline, his coach, new friends and even a better response when they found out Volvo is apart of the team.
The young man describes himself as someone that loves to stretch his comfort zone and experiencing new cultures.
Henry and two other friends that traveled with him would cook every night to maintain a good diet, “we only went to eat at restaurants about twice to experience the culture,” says Henry.
Before he knew it, it was time to pack his bags and head home.

It’s true what they say about the thrill of the hunt! I have so enjoyed decorating our lake house. I admit that I have gone a bit overboard (haha) with the nautical theme, but I can’t help myself!
Most of our lake house decor has come from eBay or antique stores and most of these things could fit comfortable in a beach house or condo as well!
Vintage boat cleats-You can buy these on eBay or new. These happened to come from the original boathouse on our property. We sold the old boathouse (to a movie studio who then used it in the movie “Careful What You Wish For”) but took off the old cleats for sentimental purposes. Plus, I think the newer cleats are made of plastic. We then used some as cleats for our wooden blinds in our family room. I love how they look! We also used a few in the outdoor shower to hold towels and swim suits.
My husband caught this fish the year we bought the lake house. Talk about perfect timing! He caught the fish in Key West and they tagged, measured and photographed the fish and threw him back. This fish is a replica. I love that because the real fish is still swimming around Florida none the wiser he could have been a trophy on someone’s wall! I’ve seen several different shapes and sizes of mounted fish for a fraction of the cost and some are even painted. I’m keeping an eye out for a small mounted bass for the Bunk House.
You can use a lone ski in decorating too! Just add some hooks and letters. This one hangs in my younger son’s room at the lake. Handy for hanging hats, clothes, towels, etc. and keeping things off of the floor. (It would be cute with a child’s name on it too.) I also have a set of vintage wooden skis that I have propped up in the den just for decoration. They probably still work, but I love how they look and don’t want to chance it.
I bought these old metal chairs and table a few years ago. They were in good shape but the cushions were rotten. I took them to my upholsterer along with a few yards of this cute coy fish fabric and he made new cushions for me. I like the bright blue and white and the fact it is Sunbrella fabric so it withstands the weather and sun. They look cute on our lake veranda and are so comfortable! This is our favorite spot to sit and watch a summer storm.
We found this large wood ship or captain’s wheel at a consignment store. It looks fun and masculine in the basement/man cave.
My son found this cute little clock and bought it for me. I love the shape of it and the metal sails. It is electric but honestly I don’t know if it works or not. I just love the look of it! We have it on the mantle in the basement.
We used a vintage wood paddle as a handle for our outdoor shower. We painted it white and my husband used a small piece of pvc pipe behind the paddle so it would stand out from the door a little in order for it to be functional as a door pull. I love it!
These are a few of my favorite nautical accents. They look right at home with my fisherman lamp collection as well as the nautical ceiling lights. I love the fun and funky lake house decor. It is so different than our other house which is probably why I love it so!

There is sadness in little Georgiana, AL tonight. Because this morning in Birmingham in the final four of the state high school basketball tournament, the team from this little hamlet lost 60-58 to a private school in north Alabama in the smallest division schools compete in.
I was in Georgiana last Thursday night at the Butler County school board meeting. A large crowd of locals, at least 75 people, were in the audience. At one point Georgiana High principal Curtis Moorer reminded the audience that the school was in the final four and that buses would be taking folks to Birmingham.
He promised that the school would win the state championship. The crowd agreed.
But now we know it will not be.
As I said in an earlier post, I was in my element that Thursday night. I don’t know who they were, but I am sure some in the crowd and I share some of the same ancestors. Lees have roamed that little speck of south Butler and north Covington counties for nearly 200 years.
They, like everyone else, waged a daily struggle to simply get by. They followed mules down sandy cotton rows, stacked peanuts in the fall, made sugar cane syrup to drag biscuits through at breakfast, killed hogs when the weather got cold in the fall, ran sewing machines making pants and blouses and under garments and worked one end of a crosscut saw until sweat sloshed in their brogans.
They were yeomen farmers and sharecroppers. Simple people who went to primitive Baptist churches and were baptized in a creek or pond. They fried chicken to take to dinner on the grounds. They helped their neighbors when help was called for. They buried their own in pine boxes and decorated graves with shells they found in a creek, and maybe even some colored glass.
The last census said Georgiana is now less than 1,800 souls. Like most of rural Alabama, the citizens are older and poorer than those in the cities where their young have fled to.
Because of such circumstances, the school is more than JUST a school. IT IS the community. It is where races mingle in a grandstand and cheer for their team. For their boys and girls. It is where hope springs from in a community that doesn’t have many chances to celebrate success or cling to hope.
They lost to a small private school in a town 250 miles away where the average student comes from a totally different environment.
I cast no rocks at the school that won. Any time you play a game, one side wins and one side loses. That’s the way it has always been and will always continue to be.
Because the DNA of its citizens is my DNA also.
Basketball Teams And Accountability Act Scholarships. Any Connections?
High school basketball season for schools playing in a public league end this week with the state tournament in Birmingham. There are seven size classifications ranging from schools with less than 100 students to Hoover high with 2,177.
The smallest division goes to 159 students, 2A up to 223 and 3A up to 297. The final four teams in each of the seven divisions are now set.
It is an open secret that some private schools use AAA scholarships to improve their athletic programs. A closer look at the five private in the high school playoffs give credence to this assumption. Since scholarship athletes are not immediately eligible, we looked at numbers from the fall of 2017.
In all, these five schools had 110 scholarships. Here is how they break down: Decatur Heritage–2; St. Luke’s Episcopal–40; Westminister Christian–none; Sacred Heart of Anniston–60; and Prattville Christian–8.
Here’s the irony. As you know, all scholarships are paid for by money diverted from the Education Trust Fund used for public schools. Could it be that some private schools are using publicly-funded scholarships to compete with public schools in basketball?
When I posted Thursday night about local school boards who have passed a resolution to repeal the accountability act, I was unaware that Opp city schools joined the parade at their Feb. 21 meeting. That makes 17 systems in all who have taken a public stance that they are fighting for their students, teachers and schools.
They have the courage and conviction to speak out against the diversion of $145 million from the Education Trust Fund.
They understand this effort is not just about repealing this terrible legislation, it is also about educators coming together across this state and speaking with one VOICE. Something we’ve been reluctant to do in recent years.
Everyone likes a pat on the back. You can support this effort by emailing these good folks.
Add Geneva and Butler counties and Andalusia city to the growing list of school systems calling for the legislature to repeal the Alabama Accountability Act.
Interestingly enough, before passing the resolution, the Butler County board had a discussion about the need to make some substantial changes to their budget to adhere to state guidelines. Their pro-rated share of the $145 million AAA has diverted from the Education Trust Fund is $577,000. A board member pointed out that they could balance their budget with this amount of money.
According to information from the state department of education, there are 722,212 students in our public schools. These 16 systems represent 181,239 of them, which is 25 percent. Of all students in these systems, 42.4 percent are black and 52.4 percent are on free-reduced lunches.
So why are the very school systems that AAA was supposed to help the ones calling for it’s repeal?
It’s just one more case where RHETORIC does not match REALITY.
Editor’s note: I attended the board meetings in Andalusia and in Butler County. I was in my element as my parents are from Covington County (Andalusia is county seat) and I spent four years running the Covington County Economic Development Commission years ago. Have know superintendent Ted Watson and several board members for many years.
The Butler County meeting was at the high school in Georgiana. Superintendent John Strycker asked me to comment on the accountability act. Before I did I told the crowd of 75-100 people that my Uncle Earl Bennett ran a grocery store just down the road in McKenzie, Also mentioned that one of my great, great, great grandfathers, William Greenberry Lee, is burne4d at South Butler cemetery in McKenzie.
Afterwards a young lady approached to tell me that she was also kin to Uncle Earl (he was her grandpa’s brother) and someone else told me he on the trustee board for the South Butler cemetery. And ran into Richie Hartley, son of Marion and Richard Hartley of Greenville, friends of many years.
Yep, I was in my element. Among people who are salt of the earth–and too often forgotten my politicians and bureaucrats in Montgomery.
Why Is The State School Board Missing In Action?
Let’s go back to the survey we did in early January that got more than 600 responses and take a closer look.
One thing that jumps out is how the public regards the state board of education and their lack of activity when it comes to the accountability act.
We asked: The Code of Alabama says the state board of education “shall seek in every way to direct and develop public sentiment in support of public education.” With this being the case, do you believe this board should take a public stance regarding the diversion of $100 million from the Education Trust Fund?
We were referring to Alabama Code Section 16-3-11 which is just below.
Some 87 percent said the board should take a position. Only eight percent said “no.” That is definitely a call for action.
We asked: The Code of Alabama also says the state board of education shall recommend to the Governor and Legislature desired changes to existing laws. Given this authority, should the state board of education be actively involved in making necessary changes to AAA?
This comes from Code Section 16-3-22.
Already 13 schools systems, including the four largest in Alabama, and with 24 percent of all students in public schools, have taken a public stand in calling for repeal of the accountability act.
Why hasn’t the state board said anything? Why do they ignore the law that governs them? Is this really what our 722,000 public school students deserve?
As we bring down the curtain on this week, I am happy to report that a grand total of SIX school boards passed a resolution this week calling for repeal of the Alabama Accountability Act.
They were: Houston, Bibb, Henry and Marion counties and the city systems of Leeds and Winfield.
That is a total of 13 superintendents and school boards who have now publicly said they are willing to fight for their students and against the continuing diversion of money that should be going to the Education Trust Fund, but is going to private school scholarships instead.
This means that systems with 24 percent of ALL the students in public schools have rejected AAA. Equally as impressive is that there are 47 House members and 25 Senators who represent some or all of one of these school districts. Since all politics is local, that is significant.
As we’ve said before, questions about AAA are plentiful. For instance, reports on the Revenue Department web site from scholarship granting organizations show in the last six years, they have collected $145,003,649 in donation–but have only awarded $90,757,820 in scholarships. Where is the difference of $54,245,820?
And why do we have a double standard for how we treat charitable contributions.?
The Revenue Department, as well as CPAs I trust, have confirmed that contributions to scholarship granting organizations are the ONLY category of non-profit where a donor gets a dollar for dollar tax CREDIT on their state income tax, while all others only get a tax DONATION.
That is huge. Why don’t we treat SGO donations just like we do those given to churches, Boy Scouts, United Way, etc.? In essence, the state of Alabama is paying for all SGO donations because the donor’s income tax is reduced by the amount of the donation. How many preachers wish their congregation’s tithes were treated the same way?
Thankfully more and more school boards are understanding the AAA is a dead end for public schools.
And stay tuned. More repeal resolutions are on the way.

Do Millennial couples actually appreciate wedding gifts? Many would say no. The New York Times argued earlier this year that Millennials are more likely to want cash and honeymoon contributions than traditional kitchen, dining and home items.
This assumption stems from the fact that the majority of couples now choose to live together before marriage and have therefore already purchased everything they need. For my husband and me, this definitely wasn’t the case: Everything from our cooking utensils to our bedding was a mix of cheap stuff from Walmart left over from college, and weathered hand-me-downs from family members. We actually did want home items more than a lavish vacation.
Yet we were, initially, uncomfortable with the idea of making a wedding registry. We didn’t want anyone to feel pressured to buy us something just because they were invited, especially given that most of our guests were traveling from out of town. But when I heard through the grapevine that some guests (especially those of our parents’ generation) were planning on getting us gifts anyway, I realized that we were in danger of getting duplicates or receiving items we may never use.
In the end, we put together our list using Thankful Registry, a service which enabled us to register for gifts at a number of different places rather than being limited to just a couple of stores. The whole process made me think about what our married life was going to be like, and what types of gifts would make each day easier, happier and more special.
Whether you are getting married and making a registry for yourself, or trying to find the perfect wedding gift for a friend, I hope these ideas will inspire you.
A wedding is a huge expense and for many couples, it’s just not possible to follow it up with an exotic vacation. Creating or contributing to a honeymoon fund ensures that the couple will have money for some much-needed downtime, whether the location is abroad or close by. Sites such as Honeyfund and Honeymoon Wishes make the whole process easier; the latter even lets you register for activities.
If you like to cook, a wedding registry is a good opportunity to ask for kitchenware. You don’t have to register for items you’ll really never use, of course—but think about whether there’s anything you’d like to have that you’ll probably never get around to buying on your own. The easiest way is to consult a list, such as this one on BuzzFeed, and take note of anything you want.
Despite the fact that I spend many hours in the kitchen every week, I used the same pan for literally everything, so I registered for items like a griddle pan, a soup pot and a wok, which will make my life much easier when I try to make certain recipes.
Because I live in the ever-traditional South, as soon as I got engaged I heard a whole lot about “wedding china.” Millennials don’t tend to throw as many formal get-togethers as our parents, so fine china is not such a necessity these days. However, if you do like to entertain for birthdays or book club, you may enjoy owning cute serving platters or drink decanters, such as this oversize Mason jar. And you can never go wrong with a fancy teapot, my friends.
One of the reasons my husband and I weren’t immediately interested in making a registry was because the items on other people’s lists tended to be expensive. Instead of registering for a $500 juicer or whatever, we picked out home accessories that were $30 or less, such as vases, ornaments and posters by Obvious State. Etsy was my best friend in this endeavor.
If you’re not married, allow me to let you in on a little secret: A lot of marriage is actually just sitting at home together. If you want to save a couple from another night of arguing about what to watch on Netflix, provide them with a shared activity. This could be a chess set, jigsaw puzzle, Scrabble board or even a sushi kit. One of our most exciting gifts was from my husband’s coworkers, who gave us a gift card for an outdoors store to help us achieve our dream of getting our own kayaks.
This may sound dull, but Disney movies are pricey, y’all! Find a movie which you know was a childhood favorite, or one which means something to the couple, such as a movie that they saw when they first began dating. Bonus points for including popcorn and soda.
My husband and I share a love of books and writing, so we registered for a joint journal. I also loved receiving a cookbook and a book of ghost stories in honor of the fact that we got married on Halloween.
A lot of people gave us food-and-drink-related gifts, and I am definitely not complaining. My English friends brought me my favorites from home, my husband’s friend made us Kombucha, relatives gave us whisky and beer, and our neighbor friend gave us a gift card to the local restaurant that we’re obsessed with.
If you’re a talented chef, you could also offer to cook the newlyweds a meal yourself, especially while they’re still decompressing after the wedding.
The EZ Bed is perfect for young couples who don’t have a fully-furnished guest room but still like to have out of town friends to stay. The EZ Bed inflates and deflates automatically and is significantly more comfortable than your run-of-the-mill air mattress. If it feels too expensive for a wedding gift, note that some registries allow you to set up a split-cost option. Besides, this is really a gift to benefit your friends, right?
If the wedding is close to a holiday, find something to help them celebrate, such as baking supplies for Easter, patriotic decor for Fourth of July or a personalized Christmas ornament which commemorates their first year as a married couple.
Some guests used our registry, some surprised us with something they thought we would like, and others did give us cash towards a future honeymoon. Their generosity was overwhelming and, more than anything, I’m so happy I get to think about all my friends and family every time I’m at home, whether it’s cooking a meal, working at my desk or dreaming about our honeymoon.

"The theme of World Health Day this year is Universal Health Coverage. Universal health coverage cannot become a reality unless we address issues of equity, quality and access to essential healthcare. Inequity entails a failure to avoid or overcome inequalities that infringe on fairness and human rights norms. Equity in healthcare delivery requires us to develop systems and mechanisms to identify the people who are being left out of the health care system and bring quality care to their doorsteps. Of note, women’s health should receive the priority it deserves, and the current paternalistic approach limited to providing care for reproductive issues should extend to a life-course approach where we take care of the entire person for a range of health conditions."
"Primary health care should become affordable and accessible to all. A population-based approach which not only screens people for high-risk conditions but also ensures that people get treatment at healthcare facilities near to their home should be put in place."
"2018 WHO Tallinn charter calls for countries to include, invest, and innovate to improve primary care delivery. Technology is a great enabler and can ensure that the front-line health care workers and doctors in primary health centres share tasks efficiently resulting in a more inclusive, equitable and affordable health system. At the same time, behaviour change strategies that target individuals so that they first seek treatment and then adhere to the treatment plan along with policy and systems change to ensure availability of best quality care in primary health settings is crucial. Addressing the social determinants of health and ensuring that public health is not compromised because of lack of clean drinking water, sanitation and hygiene can go a long way in creating a strong foundation of Universal Health Coverage where prevention becomes the key."

Prof. Toma has been researching on "Face-to-Face Communication System" at KPRI. As its representative applications, telemedicine and medical education are the major themes to co-work with medical doctors in School of Medicine, Keio University, and some of our systems are moving forward to practical uses; such as a large-sized 3D rear projection system for medical education. He also researches on designing a system of high speed optical home network using GI-POF developed by KPRI. He is working closely together with industrial experts, including optical connector and peripheral device manufacturers.
My research interests include understanding light-matter interactions (light scattering) in graded-index plastic optical fibers (GI POFs) and creating novel optical interconnects with scattering-controlled GI POFs for proliferation of optical fibers in consumer households.

This Saturday, November 23, 2013, will mark the one-year anniversary of the death of father and teacher Tom Samson. On July 22, 2013, the Toronto Star published a story outlining how the Samson family hired prominent criminal lawyer Edward Sapiano to set the record straight as to how Tom was killed by a careless motorist. They knew that Tom was a safe cyclist and they were shocked when the police told them they would not be charging the driver with any traffic infractions. Sapiano was successful insofar that the police have changed their report: But Sapiano went further to say he believed that the initial conclusions – which are still a matter of public record -- were the result of a shoddy investigation, something he suggested is indicative of a systemic failure by police to conduct thorough investigations when cyclists or pedestrians are killed after being struck by cars on city streets. From the Star article: “A drug-dealing criminal who is shot and killed during a deal gone bad gets a higher degree of investigative services from the TPS,” Sapiano wrote in a letter to the Toronto Police Service. On behalf of the Samson family, Sapiano is calling on police and the Crown to reopen the case, now that they’re acknowledging Samson was stationary, waiting to turn left, as he was lawfully obliged to be, when he was hit from behind.
Sapiano also obtained a copy of Miguel Oliveira’s [the driver who killed Tom] driving record. Between July 2010 and last December, Oliveira had eight driving infractions, including failing to come to a stop, disobeying a police signal, violating novice driving conditions and speeding. Safe cycling advocate, Eleanor McMahon, whose husband Greg was killed while riding his bicycle, worked for years to bring something now known as “Greg’s law” into legislation, which gives the police the power to immediately impound the vehicle of someone found driving while under suspension. Yet, when the driver that killed Tom finally turned himself in, his blood was not tested and he was not charged with anything other than failing to remain at the scene.
The death of cyclist Darcy Allan Sheppard in Yorkville in Toronto was also fraught with investigative discrepancies – due, in large part, to the high-profile of the driver of the car: he was a former attorney general. Darcy Allan’s father, Al senior, is relieved (especially for the sake of his grandchildren) that the record has finally been set straight with a book about the horrific incident and Darcy Allan Sheppard’s life, called Lost Boy. Read our review of the book here.
In 2012, Toronto, Canada’s largest city, with a population of around 3 million people, had triple the amount of traffic-related injuries compared to Montreal, despite a population difference of only 700,000 people. This year alone has seen 51 traffic-related deaths in Toronto. This number is up from the 32 fatalities in 2012 and accounts for the 16 motorists and passengers, 3 cyclists and 32 pedestrians killed in traffic collisions in the GTA. These numbers are the highest they have been in the last five years. It’s clear that the traffic infrastructure and legislation we currently have in Toronto is not enough to keep people safe.
Besides better infrastructure for cyclists, which we call for regularly here at dandyhorsemagazine.com, we also need to look at the way the police investigate traffic collisions where cyclists have been injured or killed. Many articles in popular international publications like the New York Times, The Times (UK), The Economist and the L.A. Times have recently called for stronger and clearer laws around traffic collisions for vulnerable road users. Car crashes are the leading cause of death of people aged 5-34 in the USA.
Between 2006 and 2010, there were 129 cycling fatalities in Ontario. These deaths, along with the deaths of 95 pedestrians in Ontario in 2010 prompted Ontario’s Chief Coroner to investigate traffic safety. In the summer of 2012, the coroner summarized the findings of his office regarding cycling fatalities as being preventable through infrastructure, education, legislation and enforcement. The locations of the deaths of cyclists in Toronto’s streets have been documented and made available to the public on a memorial map, developed by photographer and cyclist, Martin Reis (seen below) -- many of the collisions involve large trucks.
Large motorized vehicles are particularly dangerous for pedestrians and cyclists: and the coroner also found that too many pedestrian and cycling fatalities were the result of collisions with heavy trucks. The City of Toronto’s Toronto Bicycle/Motor-Vehicle Collision Study (2003) found that large trucks were overrepresented in both cycling and pedestrian fatalities. Toronto recently mourned the death of Carla Warrilow who was struck by a truck trailer on Spadina near Dundas. Jenna Morrison was killed by a right-turning truck on Sterling at Dundas in Toronto where the city – two years later – has just now finally installed a set of traffic lights. In both coroners’ reports to date investigating cyclist and pedestrian fatalities, it is recommended that side guards for trucks be made mandatory. These side guards, already mandatory in other jurisdictions, including China and the UK, would prevent more vulnerable road users from being pulled underneath if they were to be hit by a truck. There have been public petitions in Ontario and Quebec to make side guards mandatory. MP Olivia Chow originally brought forth a private members bill to mandate truck side guards and has been instrumental in pushing for side guard legislation. A group called SafeTrucks is now supporting the most recent bill called the cyclists-pedestrian protection act: Sign the petition and find out more about how you can help here.
Clearly, biking and walking are not dangerous activities in themselves – cars and trucks are what bring danger to our streets. Distracted driving needs stiffer penalties. As a society we must focus on solutions that will reduce the number of cycling and pedestrian fatalities. In the EU, many jurisdictions already legislate that drivers should have presumed liability in cycling accidents, and some jurisdictions in the USA are now moving towards laws to help protect more vulnerable road users.
We reiterate the need for better legislation and more effective infrastructure for cyclists. In Canada, the evidence demonstrating how dedicated bike-friendly infrastructure increases the safety of the cyclist has already been established. In Montreal, some of these recommendations are already in place, and the results are reflected in that they have fewer documented injuries and deaths.
A couple years ago the Globe and Mail printed an infographic showing how Toronto leads Canada in cycling deaths.
And the ensuing coroner’s report on cyclist deaths in Ontario then said that 100% of these deaths were preventable.
What has been done since these reports to improve safety?
Not much it would seem.
Today is World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims, endorsed by the United Nations.
The group, Advocacy for the Respect of Cyclists (ARC) in Toronto has organized memorial rides for nearly every cyclist killed in traffic since 1996. Here is the memorial map of the locations of cyclist’s deaths in Toronto that photographer and cyclist Martin Reis maintains. We remember fallen cyclists in Toronto.

Hi there, thank you for this and for continuing to educate and inform us about the social and political realities behind cycling accidents and fatalities. I’m a year-round cyclist and sometimes the risks really scare me. More than anything, I think I worry for my family and friends who also ride. Why aren’t we being more protected through simple measures like the truck side rail guard?
I’d also like to request that you remove this offensive phrase: ““A drug-dealing criminal who is shot and killed during a deal gone bad gets a higher degree of investigative services from the TPS.” This phrase speaks to a really repugnant callousness toward human life. Yes, drug dealers get murdered. And when they do, it is just as heart-breaking and just as much a loss as when any other human life is lost–and deserves the same level of concern, justice, healing and accountability. This phrase alludes to classist and racially-loaded stereotypes about who is a drug dealer and suggests that their lives are of lesser value and that their deaths deserve less attention. Please remove it and address the white middle class biases in your organization that would have led to your publishing this. thank you.
I’d love to know the source of car crashes being the leading cause of death for people 5-34 in the US so I can use it in my advocacy. Thanks!

One of one of the most frequent electrical wiring questions is regarding how to wire a change. Even though applying switches at your home is sort of easy, wiring one may not be that uncomplicated for everybody. An ON-OFF switch is really quite simple to wire. You'll find various kinds of switches, but for this example, let's say you happen to be setting up a single-pole toggle switch, a really typical switch (and also the simplest).
You can find 3 shades of wires inside a standard single-pole toggle switch: black, white, and inexperienced. Splice the black wire in two and hook up them about the terminal screws - one particular on best plus the other on the base screw with the change. The white wire serves to be a supply of uninterrupted electric power and is normally linked to your light coloured terminal screw (e.g., silver). Hook up the inexperienced wire to the ground screw of one's swap.
These methods would usually be ample to help make a normal change perform without having a difficulty. On the other hand, for those who usually are not confident that you can complete the task correctly and safely you better enable the professionals do it as an alternative. Right after all, there is a explanation why this undertaking is without doubt one of the commonest electrical wiring questions requested by the majority of people.
For a few purpose, tips on how to wire a ceiling fan is also considered one of the most widespread electrical wiring inquiries. To simplify this endeavor, you can utilize one swap for the single ceiling fan. To wire the enthusiast, it truly is just a make any difference of connecting the black wire of your ceiling fan into the black wire of your change. If there is a light, the blue wire really should be connected into the black wire on the switch in addition.
You'll find motives why these are typically one of the most commonly questioned electrical wiring concerns. A person, many think it can be easy to try and do, and two, these are generally the prevalent electrical responsibilities in your house. But then you certainly mustn't place your protection at risk inside your goal to save money. The stakes could even be substantially bigger if you seek to cut costs and do an electrical wiring job without the need of enough knowledge or encounter.

I can help, but I can’t make you a ‘crappiemaster’. That is something that you either have a innate talent for, or you do not. There are people who have no business being around hooks, fishing rods or even boats. Others, like myself, are a total disaster around mechanical, or social things. We’re all wired different.
If you are one of the lucky ones that have a natural talent for fishing, then all you have to do to become a ‘crappiemaster’ is to gain knowledge and experience. One of the best resources for learning is our Crappie Secrets e-book. it is very reasonable and has several lifetimes worth of valuable information and tips in it. It can cut years off the learning curve.
Remember 75% of all the fish caught are caught by 25% of the anglers. The difference between that 75% and 25% is knowledge and experience. Learn all you can, and fish all you can. Only in this way, you can be come a true master of Crappie-Fu, Finhopper.

Graphene is made commercially from graphite as multi layers of nanoplates. The highest quality graphene is monolayer however this is expensive to make. A new process has been developed that can make monolayer graphene with very high yield, all it takes is a drop of honey.
The National Physical Laboratory (NPL) in the UK has introduced some welcome clarity in the graphene market by creating standard definitions for graphene nanoplate products.
Generally the fewer the layers the better the quality. However quality of graphene means different things to different people. It depends on the application.
For example, if you are trying to make a road surface stronger and last longer then cheaper ground graphite may be good enough. If you are in the business of making sensors then monolayer graphene will be essential.
To make monolayer graphene from graphite requires a lot of time and careful preparation. As a consequence monolayer graphene is the most expensive product. So when I heard that about a new method for making monolayer graphene, I thought you might be interested too.
A team at Lanzhou University in China reported in a new study a green, simple, low-cost method for preparing high-quality graphene with a high yield of ~91% on a three-roll mill by using natural honey as exfoliating media.
This means that the effective exfoliation can only occur if the surface energy of solvent close to that of graphite and the net energetic consumption is very small.
The team started with graphite powder and added honey in a 1:8 ratio. Then they stirred this at 200 rpm to 10 minutes. The mixture was fed in to the centre roll of a three-roll mill. They kept the temperature and humidity constant. After the 5 hours of processing they washed the mixture with distilled water and centrifuged the suspension to collect the monolayer graphene.
The team found that as well as making high quality graphene the process also produced a very high yield, over 90% that contains over 97% monolayer graphene.
The Chinese team have found a process that makes high quality and high yield monolayer graphene. Because the exfoliating liquid is honey this is a ‘green’ process too. This is a relatively straightforward method and this points to a good potential to be scaled. If this process can be taken from the laboratory to the pilot scale then commercial success should follow.
key question here is scale up – looks promising.
Given honey – maybe the sweet smell of success!
Interesting though what other carriers may have a similar effect and how important is the viscosity?
I agree with you Steve. The scale up capability is going to be key, but it does look promising.
The team thought that honey worked because of two characteristics i) they thought that the honey had a similar surface energy to the graphene ii) that the viscosity of the honey matched the shear force required to slide the nanoplates past one another.
If this is correct then another liquid with similar viscosity but different surface energy might not be able to ‘grip’ the nanoplates. So they just might have got lucky with the honey. I’m sure there will be follow up research exploring this.

Blends of polyamide with chemically coupled polypropylene form the basis for the Akromid series from Akro-Plastic GmbH, Niederzissen, Germany. The specific focus here is on low density, chemical resistance and good adhesion between the blend partners. The use of both glass and carbon fibers continues to drive advances in lightweight design. Long glass fibers are also used as they are superior to chopped glass fiber-reinforced components from polyamide with higher filler content. Even at 120 °C, the grade B28 LGF 40 1 L with its long glass fibers confers greater strength than a chopped glass fiber-reinforced polyamide with 50% glass fiber, says the manufacturer.
Akromid B3 ICF 20 1 L possesses a combination of high weight reduction potential (compared to that of unreinforced PA) and good mechanical properties. The manufacturer says that the weight can be further reduced through the use of blowing agents. Akroloy Para ICF 40 is a very high strength polyamide blend that possesses a good surface finish.
The products in this series with reduced moisture absorption have been joined by an equally highly reinforced product: Akromid B3 GF 60 RM 4-M, which finds application in, e. g. fan blades. Furthermore, the production concept underpinning the ICX technology, which has so far been implemented only in Germany, can also be deployed in the plants in China and Brazil and is thus globally available (see p. 118 in this issue). The technology lies behind the production of flame-retardant products of high quality across the board, and the electrically neutral compound series Akromid EN.
Akrotek PK-VM CF 10 TM, a polyketone-based product, has also been added to the product portfolio and provides high elasticity despite being reinforced with carbon fiber.

Franklin, TN – April 10, 2017 - The Carlstar Group announced today the release of the new Carlisle branded Black Rock M/S (Mud and Snow) tire. As the first Carlisle branded mud-specific UTV tire, the Black Rock M/S is equipped with a unique tread, designed for increased traction control in loose and muddy terrain.
The Black Rock M/S incorporates “mud spikes” tattooed in the void area of the tire design. The mud spikes break the suction often associated with deep, soupy mud. The mud spikes work in conjunction with the V shaped dimples of the uniquely designed lugs to evacuate mud from the tire. These features allow the massive 1.2 inch tread depth to provide the bite needed to maintain forward motion in extremely muddy conditions. A proprietary tread formulation balances maximum wear properties with excellent chip and tear resistance, providing enthusiasts with compelling value for their investment.
Available in dealers in April 2017, MSRP ranges from $102 to $140 with sizes available in 25x8-12 to 28x11-14. The all new Black Rock M/S tire will dominate over the biggest mud holes and lead riders on their next outdoor exploration.
Not all Powersports tires are the same.

One adult and three juvenile suspects were arrested yesterday afternoon after they allegedly burglarized an Elk Grove residence.
Elk Grove Police officers were dispatched to the 9300 block of Moynello Court after receiving reports of a residential burglary. Officers were given descriptions of possible suspects and located a 13-year old female suspect from Elk Grove and 18-year old Jeremy Southern of Sacramento walking together a short distance away from the burglary.
Officers contacted Southern, who was in possession of a backpack and found to be on probation. The female suspect walked in a different direction and was approached by another officer.
A search of Southern's backpack led to the discovery of property stolen during the residential burglary. During the investigation, officers developed information regarding two additional suspects.
The other suspects, a 13 and 14-year old females from Elk Grove were located and contacted. Southern was arrested and booked into the county jail where he remains in custody on $10,000 bail.
The three female suspects were arrested and booked into juvenile hall.
