Eight of Europe's leading micromobility companies have created a coalition to address what they say is "a gap in the representation of industry" in transport and mobility policy discussions.
Micro-Mobility for Europe (MMfE) — which comprises Bird, Bolt, Dott, FreeNow, Lime, TIER, Voi, and Wind — plans to contribute to the development of a "coherent policy framework" in Europe that will ensure micromobility solutions grow in cities and support the rapid transition to zero-emission urban mobility.
The group says it will bring the views, expertise, and experience of the shared micromobility industry to policy discussions and "transform urban mobility" across the continent.
While not specifying whether it intends to engage with individual cities or governments, TIER's Head of Public Policy Jinél Fourie told Cities Today the group wants to "have a voice" in EU policy-making.
"EU-wide regulation will enable European cities to optimize the benefits of shared micromobility, as they transition to more sustainable modes of transport," said Fourie.

Coherent Policy
As e-scooter and shared bike schemes have expanded across Europe, often appearing overnight with little consultation with city authorities, tensions have arisen regarding regulation and management.
In October, Copenhagen banned scooters from its streets after complaints from the public about poorly parked devices blocking access for elderly and disabled residents.
Many countries, however, including Ireland and the UK, have been slow to react to the new modes of mobility, relying on outdated legislation to govern their use.
The UK legalized the use of rented e-scooters in limited trials last summer, but issues with riders operating private scooters illegally are still widespread with little or no enforcement in many cities, including London.
The eight members of MMfE currently operate in over 20 EU countries across more than 100 cities and have identified data governance and the circular economy as top priorities to ensure that shared micromobility is an integral part of EU policy developments in the coming years.
At the municipal level, some European cities have already adopted templates for data-sharing for providers of dockless bikes, e-scooters, and shared-ride providers that work within the public right of way.
In 2018 Lisbon integrated the Mobility Data Specification (MDS) – a city-led data standard originally developed by Los Angeles – into its transit ecosystem in an effort to create an open system of data-sharing for firms operating in the city.

Just who is educating Rita? The learning careers of Access HE tutors
Hudson, A. 2016. Just who is educating Rita? The learning careers of Access HE tutors. British Educational Research Association (BERA) Annual Conference 2016. University of Leeds, UK 13 - 15 Sep 2016
Hudson, A.
This paper presents the initial findings of a small scale qualitative study that aims to explore the learning careers of tutors, based in Further Education (FE) who teach on the Access HE Diploma which prepares adult learners for entry to Higher Education (HE). In 2013/14 some 44,685 learners enrolled on the Access HE Diploma and 23,085 learners with a Diploma entered HE in England and Wales (QAA, 2015). Whilst there is a well-documented literature on the Access HE Diploma, which has contributed to widening participation by providing an alternative route into HE, (Diamond, 1999; and Preece et al, 1998), very little is known about those who teach and support the so-called "second chance" access HE learners (Busher et al , 2015). Research interest in the FE workforce has gradually increased over the last ten years, particularly around discourses of professionalism (Robson and Bailey, 2009), professional standards (Tummons, 2014) and continuing professional development (Husband, 2015). Recent research revealed that Access HE tutors often felt marginalised within their institution: " …feeling betwixt and between in terms of their identity, neither part of the "A" level team, nor part of vocational education, nor part of the HE part of the college where one existed." (Busher et al, 2015:135).
Adopting a social constructivist perspective we use the life-grid and qualitative interviews to co-construct tutors' learning careers. We are particularly interested in the construction of their academic identity and how this shapes their practice, as well as exploring their motivation for teaching on Access HE courses and commitment to widening access. To interpret the rich profusion of academic identity, the impact of policy shifts on their dispositions and their often marginalised position, we draw on Bourdieu's theoretical concepts of habitus and field as useful conceptual tools. At a very practical level the research aims to identify tutors' support and training needs; exploring the extent to which they engage in scholarly activity; undertake continuing professional development; and the extent to which they are supported by their employer.
Initial findings
The narratives of the twelve tutors, all of whom are based in FE colleges in London, offers an insight into how their identity has been constructed and reconstructed in response to the changing educational landscape: professionalization, re-professionalization and performativity. For some tutors, meeting management expectations and the targets of an audit culture impacted on their professionalism and the quality of teaching and learning.

Can Accusations Against Kami Sid Shed Light on the Woes of the Transgender Community
By Zoya Anwer 28 May, 2019
Violations against the marginalized transgender communities aren't novel. Rather, globally, the members of the community are often harassed and sometimes even killed if they do not give in to the pressures mounted by the transphobic cishet individuals.
Recently, allegations which surfaced on social media against a popular transgender activist have not only shook the transgender community but it has also led to a discussion about the course of justice which can be opted to uphold the victims instead of isolating them.
According to a social media post by an activist, Minahil Baloch, transgender activist and model, Kami Sid sent her intimidating messages after she spoke up against the representation of alleged rapists in Cannes Film Festival, where Kami's film Rani was also submitted.
Though Kami wasn't directly named in the post mentioning Cannes, the transgender activist and her partner Sid have been accused of raping a transgender girl, a few years ago, who was working at their house as a domestic help.

The serious allegations levied against Kami and Sid have not only raised a lot of questions about the flaws in the legal system but have once again, brought forward the question about treatment of such crimes in the marginalized communities like the transgender community.
Demand for change
There has been a lot of talk about the position taken by the cishet men and women, and whether it would be their place to speak about issues of LGBTQ groups, but the transgender community itself is also speaking about such instances and are demanding an end to apathetic attitudes.
Social media platforms are a medium to speak about harassment but Aradhiya Khan, a transgender activist, feels that it would have been better if there could have been other ways. Outing through such platforms lead to a lot of vitriol against the community because many people cannot distinguish that the allegations have been put on one member and not all of them.
"However, I do understand that asking someone to follow the course of law is easier said than done. We can see that people who do not belong to the transgender community face so many hurdles in filing a simple case so a grave incident within a community would be extremely difficult too," she said.
Speaking about the transphobia, Khan said that people must understand that crimes do not have any gender and are more related to power: "Any person who is powerful enough can carry out a crime so pinning all the blame on transgender community is just apathetic and plain transphobic."
Khan stressed that it was extremely important to raise awareness within the community to acknowledge such crimes as well.
"It is not news that members of the transgender community are often harassed in public by men, so much so that it becomes a part and parcel of their lives, and they are led to believe that it is normal so when a grave incident takes places, they often do not know if it can be reported because they do not know their rights. The reason members of the transgender community fall prey to violence is that they do not know where to go if they are caught in such a situation because there are no mechanisms in place for them," she said.
It is also ironic to see cishet people wishing to distance themselves from the transgender community because one member has been accused of sexual violence, as if the crime stories which fill the newspapers tell the tales of someone from another planet. It is pertinent to remember that in the last few weeks, there have been many cases of sexual violence against women and minors, all committed by men.
However, Khan feels that the course of action should be taken and a case should be filed in the court and investigation should be carried out and the community members must understand the gravity of the issue so it would not get repeated again.
Understanding the legalities
Shedding legal perspective about such a case, practicing lawyer Sarah Farid said that there have been two recent developments in the area of transgender community's rights in Pakistan namely the 2018 Transgender Persons (Protection of Rights Act of 2018) and the 2009 Supreme Court judgment in the case of Khaki v. Rawalpindi from 2009.
"Together this case law and Parliamentary Act create a clear precedent legally reasserting and emphasizing the importance of rights for transgender persons," she mentions.
Their rights to be as mentioned in the Act are:
Identity recognition as the perceived gender
Protection by the police, local communities, freedom of education, election, property and employment rights as are the rights of every Pakistani citizen
Transgender persons are also free from any and all harassment or discrimination based on their gender must cease on an immediate and permanent basis
The government should take responsibility for rehabilitating members in the society via establishing safe houses and jails especially designated for them
The government and public officials should be given sensitivity training on how to deal with the members of the community
Vocational training, business opportunities and small loans, as well as any other measures to facilitate inclusion of such persons in society is also expected from the government.
Farid said that the communications and behavior as occurred in aforementioned case would fall within the ambit of this law if a court of law finds the model and her accomplices guilty. But she said that unfortunately, it was unlikely that the government would take the steps it has described in this Act, given historical experience, weak enforcement and the lack of legal remedies mentioned in this Act.
It must also be understood that while a separate Transgender Rights Bill was passed last year, the Pakistan Penal Code does not protect the transgender persons against sexual violence.
"On sexual violence, Art 375-376 of the Pakistan Penal code on rape and gang rape are severely lacking, because they only refer to rape as being done by a man on a woman. Thus, it does not protect men or children or transgender persons. Our laws are superbly outdated and do not match the demands of this time. The PPC, written in 1860, has not been updated since the past years almost. It also reflects the taboos and morality of that time," Farid said.
She also pointed out that the laws must be drafted in a way that they would account for all possible conditions and manifestations of the crime under question.
"While civil society organizations, non-profits and activists may all work for this cause, change needs to be governmental, rather than the weak promises made in this Act, which will probably never amount to more than that," states Farid.
In such times, one can only hope for the victims to get justice, irrespective of the communities they belong to because the onus of saving a community's 'honor' must not rely on one member who has been wronged by others and by the state.

Now reading: This Is What It's Really Like To Live With Endometriosis
Saturday 30th June 2018
Endometriosis occurs when the internal tissue of the uterus is found in other areas of the body – this may be the ovaries, around your tubes, or even on the bowel. Those affected – one woman in 10 of reproductive age – will experience some, or all, of the following: painful periods and sex, fatigue, irregular and heavy bleeding, and even, infertility.
These symptoms vary in severity. Padma Lakshmi sidelined her acting career because of it. Susan Sarandon says she missed out on many things because of the way in which it seized her body. Lena Dunham had a hysterectomy to end the complications the condition brought about. And Halsey has been vocal about her struggles with the affliction.
Despite this, though, endometriosis is critically unreported and there's a serious lack of awareness surrounding the condition. In part, this is because it's often misdiagnosed (there's no definitive cause or cure and pain is difficult to quantify). But, sadly, after years of being bypassed and referred to euphemistically as "women's troubles", many people still do not recognise the long-term effects this condition can have.
After experiencing "extreme pain" in 2015 and "sitting on the toilet for days passing blood clots", Ellie Kammer sought medical advice. In 2015, after a lifetime of heavy, painful and long-lasting periods, Ellie was finally diagnosed with Stage 2 endometriosis. "It's not a disease where you simply have painful or heavy periods", explains Ellie. "It's where cells and tissue grow where they should not. It can cause serious issues especially when the cells start to form lesions and strangle your organs".
Ellie, an Australian-based artist, now channels her own experiences into an ongoing art project, which she describes as "a personal documentation of my experience living with endometriosis. I want to try to put into images what the reality of this disease can look like".
Below, Ellie talks to us about her chronic pain and the effect it has had on her life.
Tell us about your experience with endometriosis
"I was diagnosed in 2015 via single incision laparoscopy through my belly button. I had excision surgery at the same time and this took a long time to recover from. Endometriosis is not an autoimmune disease, but it does have an autoimmune component and this was making me very susceptible to infections. I've spent many nights in emergency rooms with urine tract infections. In fact, it's been years since I didn't have an infection.
"In 2017, I started to experience new symptoms. My urine was brown, but I had infections all the time so this wasn't something I thought about too much. I had a crazy fever too, and I was in some pain. I put it down to an endo flare up maybe coinciding with flu so I slept for a day. I woke the next morning in a pool of sweat and couldn't move an inch. I decided to go to the hospital. As I was in the emergency room, the pain became increasingly more and more severe.
"It turned out I'd had a bladder infection, that had gone unnoticed because I was so accustomed to pain. The infection had spread to my kidney and into my blood. I was treated for sepsis and had my vitals monitored closely. A couple of weeks after this had happened and I had taken so many antibiotics, my bloody urine hadn't cleared up and I was still in pain. I saw my gynecologist who booked me in for urgent surgery. She excised my endometriosis - which had riddled my body again in just two years - dilated my urethra to give me a narrower chance of contracting bladder infections, inserted a Mirena to treat the endometriosis symptoms and diagnosed me with Adenomyosis, endo's cousin.
"This saga is a window into life with endometriosis. It's always like this for me. One health drama after another - it's exhausting".
It's so hard to quantify pain, but when did you realise it was too much?
"I realised something was seriously wrong when I was travelling in 2014. I'd had problems with heavy, painful and long-lasting periods for years prior and having been told by a number of GPs that this was 'normal', I just accepted that this was how life would be for me.
"But, in 2014, I found myself in extreme pain in a hotel room in France. The kind of pain I had never felt before – I was having to sit on the toilet for days passing blood clots. For three week after this incident, I felt extremely emotional, I looked like I was about six-months pregnant and the bleeding just would not settle. When I got back to Australia, I started to investigate with my GP, then the gynaecologist and about six months later, I had surgery for the first time and was then diagnosed with Stage 2 endometriosis".
What are some of the misconceptions attached to endometriosis?
"It's not a disease where you simply have painful or heavy periods. It's where cells and tissue grow where they shouldn't. It can cause serious issues especially when the cells start to form lesions and strangle your organs.
"I know plenty of women who've had bowel resections, hysterectomies, oophorectomies and cervical removals. It can be absolutely devastating and because of its association with menses, not enough people care to consider it's true impact. It's a life-long condition with limited treatment options, the treatment options aren't available to everyone and they're insanely expensive for both the sufferer and the government.
How would you describe the pain you experience?
"The pain is different for everyone, but for me it's as if there is an elastic band between my knees and my uterus. It's there on a daily basis. It feels as though my organs are being pulled down, and it creates a radiating heat and a dull ache through my torso. Sometimes I experience dragging sharp pains in my legs too.
"My adenomyosis causes musculoskeletal pain, which I feel mostly in my hips and thighs. It's a deep, sharp pain and it can be debilitating. The adenomyosis also puts pressure on my bladder, it can feel like you have a urine tract infection every day. I also get referred pain in different areas from time-to-time.
"One of the most frustrating pains adeno and endo causes is painful sex. I once read a comment in a forum by a woman with adeno who likened that pain to being raped with a hot fire poker. At first I thought it was an outrageous thing to say, but then I thought about it for a minute and she's quite right. The pain is hot and hurts like hell and when you're doing something that is supposed to be pleasurable, and you suddenly find that it feels like you're being torn in two, it starts to feel like violation. I find this to be one of the most difficult symptoms to deal with physically and emotionally".
Is there anything that helps to soothe it?
"The Mirena has changed my life. It's a controversial contraceptive approach and it really only works for about half the women who try it. For other women, it can wreak absolute havoc on their bodies. Personally, I don't really know how I lived before I got it. I rarely have periods at all and the pain has significantly decreased.
"I would also recommend the Mona Lisa Touch to any woman who is struggling with painful sex. Being on contraceptives for a long time can sometimes cause vaginal atrophy which makes sex even more painful. The laser therapy stimulates new cell growth and it makes a huge difference.
"Removing soy, cow products and reducing sugar intake in my diet has helped enormously too, especially with the bloating".
How has your art helped your endometriosis?
"It's interesting, because you see an array of doctors and gynaecologists and their advice is always slightly varied, but one thing I've heard them consistently say is 'try and meditate'. I'm not really one for your typical crossed-legged, hum-style of meditation, but painting works a dream for me. It takes me out of my body and into a pain and worry-free space. In my opinion, it is essential for endo sufferers to figure out how to make meditation work for them. Art and painting works for me".
Do women suffering from endometriosis outreach to you as a direct response to your project?
"I get messages, emails, comments from women with endo all the time. Every day. I'm really touched that my work resonates with them and encourages them to speak out. Of course, not everyone feels the same way about my pieces, and not all women with endometriosis struggle with living their secret endo life… but for the ones that do, I think my work serves as a sort of an invitation to speak about it.
"I feel that Australia is probably a front runner in understanding and conversing about endometriosis and a lot of women worldwide are not as lucky as I am. I talk about it all the time, but they don't really have the opportunity to and I love that they're starting to open up about it and become enlightened to the fact that it's neither fair nor acceptable to suffer in silence".
What do you hope anyone viewing your paintings will take from them?
"I'd just hope that the images evoke any sort of feeling. For women with endo or people who know of endometriosis. Maybe it's comfort or empowerment. For others maybe it's disgust. All reactions are important, they make us ask a follow-up question. I guess that's what I hope for, that follow up question".

In this project we are again collaborating with the Guardian's Interactive Team. This time we are interested in exploring how journalists' use of Twitter can be facilitated in the context of reporting the London 2012 Olympic Games.
As part of the Guardian's Second Screen we provide a real-time timeline view of Twitter traffic on the Olympics. The idea behind the Second Screen is to provide a live stream of blog posts, tweets from the Guardian's Expert Network as well as pictures and results from the events. Users can view this stream in their web browsers on a desktop, tablet or even mobile phone. The Twitter timeline gives an indication of the amount of discussion on Twitter. Spikes in traffic are usually associated with key events such as the end of the Women's road cycle race in which Lizzie Armistead won the first medal for Team GB. Users who try to catch up with the day's events can use the timeline to find these events. Jonathan Richards wrote an article about the design of the second screen and the role of the timeline in it.
A second part of the project is to provide a workbench for journalists that provides the same timeline display with added information such as the most retweeted messages, the most frequently used hashtags, most mentioned users and most shared links. This workbench allows journalists to find interesting content to include in the Second Screen. Over the course of the Games, we will be working closely with Guardian journalists to refine the functionality of the system and tailor it to their needs.
A number of extensions to the initial protoype are in the pipeline and we are looking forward to trialling them under real-world conditions. For example, Miranda and Ewan in Edinburgh have been working on an incremental approach to clustering tweets to provide real-time insight into what topics are being talked about on Twitter and how many original contributions they attract. This complements our analysis of retweets, which focuses on individual posts that gain prominence. Alex has been writing the core Twitter mining and data handling code and is keeping a watchful eye on the live data collection and operation of the different parts of the system. Lars has written the user interface for the journalist's workbench and Ash has contributed to language detection and spam identification code. Rob and Phil have been studying journalist's work to inform the gathering of requirements for the project.

Slobberknocker: Pillman's Got A Gun
Posted: December 29, 2011 by Keith Stone in Brian Pillman, Slobberknocker, Stone Cold Steve Austin, videos, wrestling, WWF
The WWF has done its share of distasteful storylines, but this may be the worst. In the middle of a bitter feud, the former Hollywood Blondes tag team partners, Stone Cold Steve Austin and Brian Pillman, let things get a little too personal. With Pillman laid up with an ankle injury at his home in suburban Cincinnati with his well-endowed wife, Stone Cold saw it fit to interrupt the live interview Pillman was giving that night. Pillman had a little trick up his sleeve, however: a gun.
Even for the Attitude Era, this stunt was a bit too real but Austin's got brass ones for coming back at Pillman and screaming, "Shoot me." And kudos to Kevin Kelly for standing there like an idiot while a murder's about to go down. The snow was also a total cop out. BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE! This footage shows what happened when Raw went off the air. Looks like Mrs. Big Boobs Pillman wasn't so scared after all. I hate this. It's like seeing how hot dogs are made. I wanted to believe that Pillman was a second away from blowing Austin's head off. It's still real to me, dammit.
Slobberknocker: Stone Cold Stuns Santa
Posted: December 25, 2011 by Keith Stone in Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas, Slobberknocker, Stone Cold Steve Austin, videos, wrestling, WWF
With "Santa Claus" holding court in the ring, Stone Cold Steve Austin took exception to St. Nick's interaction with a young member of the audience. The Rattlesnake had it out with the imposter, leading to a stunner and a North Pole ass whooping. I hope he got extra presents that year. And yes, that wasn't the most offensive religion-related occurrence in WWF history.
Slobberknocker: Johnny Ace
Posted: December 18, 2011 by Keith Stone in CM Punk, Executive VP of Talent Relations, videos, wrestling, WWF
As part of this year's Slammy Awards, WWF Champion CM Punk presented a honorary lifetime achievement award to his nemesis and current interim Raw GM, John Laurinaitis. As part of the tribute, Punk had a video package made of all of Funk Man's "highlights" throughout the years. The video itself is classic but the music really brings everything together nicely. Despite his reputation as a hardass behind the scenes, Laurinaitis is actually a pretty good new onscreen character. He straddles the line between being a serious decision-maker and oblivious comic relief. I'd like to keep seeing more.
Trailer Park: The Reunion
Posted: December 18, 2011 by Keith Stone in John Cena, The Reunion, Trailer Park, videos, wrestling, WWF
Now we can get us killed in two langauges.
What do John Cena and Tyler Perry have in common? Despite the fact that their movies consistently look terrible, somebody apparently goes to see them and they keep rolling out more and more. In The Reunion, John Cena (apparently filming during one of his many firings) and a cast of Oscar winners playing his brothers start a private investigation agency after their father dies and promises to leave them a huge inheritance if they can successfully run a business together. What a realistic premise! Who wouldn't want to see that? Cena can make fun of the Rock for being in the ring once in a blue moon, but at least when he does it, it's entertaining. I think it's about time for Cena to retire from the movie business.
Slobberknocker: The Torch Is Passed
Posted: December 11, 2011 by Keith Stone in Chris Jericho, Randy Orton, videos, wrestling, WWF
As part of a ceremony anointing himself as the future of the WWF, Randy Orton wanted the torch to be literally passed to him, so he went ahead and did the logical thing: he hired a runner to carry a torch from Miami to Ft. Lauderdale. The poor lad made the nearly 30-mile run only to be clotheslined in the final stretch by Chris Jericho, who was making his "second coming." Jericho went on to confront Orton and cut one of his trademark promos to kick off a excellent final three-year run in wrestling. Although he dropped his sparkly-shirt wearing rocker gimmick for a more serious, suit-wearing character, Jericho's stole the torch from Orton in more ways than one that night.
Maryse Ouellet: Dayyyyyyyyyyyyuuuuuuuuuuuuum
Posted: December 11, 2011 by Keith Stone in dayyyyyyyyyyyyuuuuuuuuuuuuum, Maryse Ouellet, wrestling
Normally I hate French Canadians but Maryse is the exception. The Hawaiian Tropic model-cum-wrestler-cum-fashion designer can talk to me in her broken English all she wants. It may sound like she has Down syndrome, but she certainly doesn't look like it. After suffering an abdominal hernia in the ring, Maryse was recently released from the WWF. I'd like to rehab with her. Dayyyyyyyyyyyyuuuuuuuuuuuuum!
Slobberknocker: Tombstone on the Escalator
Posted: December 4, 2011 by Keith Stone in Slobberknocker, Triple H, Undertaker, videos, wrestling, WWF
This has to be one of the most spectacular wrestling matches of all-time, with a finish for the ages. I didn't even know it existed until like a week ago. Two future Hall of Famers fighting in the middle of Penn Station on the short-lived Shotgun Saturday Night. Of course I didn't see it. It was on Channel 55. The Undertaker's entrance down the escalator and through the crowd was awesome but I was a little disappointed he didn't make the lights go off. Imagine rushing to take the LIRR home and bumping into the Undertaker. That's a scary commute.
Slobberknocker: Gobbledy Gooker
Posted: November 27, 2011 by Keith Stone in Gobbledy Gooker, Slobberknocker, videos, wrestling, WWF
Is it a dinosaur? Is it a rabbit? Balloons? Is it the Playmate of the Month?
Leading up to the 1990 Survivor Series, a giant egg was frequently seen on WWF TV with the promise of a big surprise reveal at the event. Mean Gene was pretty excited about it but when the Gobbledy Gooker popped out and started dancing in the ring, the fans weren't much pleased. Despite Gorilla Monsoon and Roddy Piper's best efforts to sell the hell out of the gimmick, the Gooker (played by Eddie Guerrero's brother Hector) wasn't seen again for more than 10 years.
Tebowmania
Posted: November 21, 2011 by Keith Stone in Denver Broncos, football, Hulk Hogan, NFL, TEBOW!, wrestling
Whatcha gonna do when Tebowmania runs wild on you?
With Tebowmania running rampant around the country and dare I say, the world, my buddy Matt takes a look at the phenomenon and how Tebow compares to a certain icon from the past:
The babyfaced athletic hero takes the stage with great fanfare. Women and children scream for him. Grown men wear his outfit. The air is thick with anticipation of the history that is about to unfold. But then our hero spends most of the contest looking entirely inferior to the competition, bringing virtually nothing to the table. He makes his adversaries gain a sense of superiority, makes neutral observers scoff, and makes even some of his backers start to question why they bothered investing their emotions in this guy in the first place. Yet like clockwork, just when all hope seems to be lost, it happens. Our moribund hero springs to life and lets loose in a storm of fury on his tiring opponent. In the blink of an eye, it is over. Somehow, in the closing minutes our hero made a remarkable rally and added to his growing legend. Music blares over the PA and fans go wild as he assumes his trademark pose, victorious.
If the character we know as Timothy Richard Tebow didn't exist, someone would have to create it. As it turns out, someone already did create it more than a quarter-century ago. But in its initial incarnation, the character wasn't an NFL quarterback named Tim Tebow. He was a WWF wrestler named Hulk Hogan.
As I watched Tebow lead the Broncos on their improbable game-winning drive Thursday night, culminating in a 20-yard touchdown run to upset the Jets 17-13, I began searching through my memory. Precisely who did this unorthodox (perhaps that's the wrong word given his devout faith) phenom remind me of? We hear a lot of Doug Flutie comparisons, but that doesn't quite fit. As anyone who's ever seen film of his Hail Mary pass to beat Miami while at Boston College can attest, Flutie had a fantastic arm. He had trouble getting a crack at a NFL starting job not due to a lack of arm, but a lack of height.
I realized that I had never seen a quarterback quite like Tebow, that I'd need to search outside the world of football to find an apt comparison. And finally, it hit me. Tim Tebow is the closest thing the NFL has ever seen to the Hulkster.
Before his public life degenerated into aging, balding, wrinkled, steroid-addled, reality show-starring, womanizing, wife-divorcing farce, Hogan was a cartoonish grappler who inspired kids across America to do the right thing. Clearly, the mid 1980's were a different era in both the WWF and our nation for this situation (pro wrestler as role model) to even be possible. His mantra to America's youth was to "train, say your prayers and eat your vitamins." The children watching him didn't imagine the "vitamins" to mean steroids. We assumed he meant Flintstones chewables, especially the purple Dino shapes. Those were tasty.
Tebow's persona is similarly straight out of a comic book. I'm tempted to call him a throwback, but to what? He's a throwback to a past that never existed even in the popular imagination. Perhaps baseball superstars were once imagined to be as wholesome as peanut butter on whole wheat with a glass of milk, but quarterbacks were generally rough-hewn gladiators at best. At worst, you'd expect them to show up drunk on national TV asking Suzy Kolber to kiss them.
With more than two decades since his heyday to blur the memories, it would be easy to recall Hogan's character in the ring as that of an irresistible force. We remember the bulging eyes, the driving "Real American" entrance music, the yellow shirt ripping off as if it were effortless. But here's the thing: Hogan almost always struggled through his matches. In fact, he often brought virtually nothing to the table. He was a big, muscular guy to be sure, but if Mel Kiper Jr. scouted 80's WWF wrestlers Hogan would've been given the dreaded "tweener" tag. He would have underwhelmed at the combine. He had decent size for the WWF, but was no Andre the Giant or Big John Studd. He never was particularly quick on his feet. I'm fairly certain the Ultimate Warrior could have destroyed him in a bench-press competition. And he had no aerial moves anywhere near the class of a "Macho Man" Randy Savage or a Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka.
Slobberknocker: Deadly Game
Posted: November 19, 2011 by Keith Stone in Slobberknocker, The Rock, videos, wrestling, WWF
With the Survivor Series in town this Sunday and the Rock making his return after being inactive for seven years, this is only appropriate. After Vince McMahon screwed Bret Hart at the 1997 Survivor Series, he (or rather Mr. McMahon) and his cronies took meddling to new levels. Just one year later at the '98 Series, the WWF Title sat vacant after the Undertaker and Kane pinned Stone Cold Steve Austin simultaneously at Summerslam.
To rectify this, McMahon set up a 14-man tournament for the event with the winner to be crowned Champion. Along with his long-running hatred of Austin, McMahon had a new nemesis in the Rock, who called himself the People's Champion. Well, McMahon hated the people but appeared to be growing fond of Mankind, who would do anything for "his dad." When he and the Rock met in the Finals, it seemed like Mankind would have his day but he learned like the Hitman did, never to trust Vincent Kennedy McMahon, and the Rock had won his first WWF Championship.

What's the Most Powerful Cordless Impact Wrench?
Cordless/battery-powered impact wrenches have come a long way since their early beginnings. No longer can they be considered puny and inferior to pneumatic impacts. The companies like Milwaukee, Dewalt, and Ingersoll Rand have developed new battery technologies, as well as new lines of the brushless motor that boost the performance of existing tools while making it possible to introduce larger more powerful tools than was thought to be possible. In this article, we review 3 most powerful cordless impact wrenches on the market.
#1 Milwaukee 2763-22 M18 FUEL 1/2″ Inch Cordless Impact Wrench Review
When it comes to an impact wrench the name of the game is power and the Milwaukee 2763-22 M18 FUEL Cordless Impact Wrench is a monster. We used this impact wrench to remove over tightened and even rusted on wheel lug nuts and other nuts and bolts on vehicles. We've tried the strongest models from the other brands and they were very weak in comparison to this Milwaukee tool. This is the absolute strongest and fastest nut/bolt remover and fastener ever created. We guarantee you will love it and never want to use anymore an air compressor to power your tools.
Let's see the following video to understand why this is the most powerful cordless impact wrench you've probably never seen before.
Milwaukee 2763-22 M18 1/2″ Inch Impact Wrench | By Milwaukee Tool
Features & Performance:
Delivers up to 700 ft.-lbs. of maximum fastening torque, up to 1100 ft.-lbs. of nut-busting torque and up to 2X more runtime
Powerstate brushless motor outpowers competitors yet runs cooler with no wearable components
RedLithium XC 5.0 battery pack provides superior pack construction, electronics and performance to deliver 2X more runtime
Redlink Plus Intelligence allows the operator to choose between 2 fastening modes with Milwaukee's proprietary Drive Control feature
Mode 1 delivers up to 100 ft.-lbs. of maximum fastening torque, and Mode 2 up to 700 ft.-lbs. maximum fastening torque
1/2in. anvil with friction ring for fast, easy socket changes
LED light illuminates work area
Weighs 7.4 lbs.
5-year tool + 3-year battery warranty
This cordless impact wrench has awesome torque – delivering up to 700 ft.-lbs. of maximum fastening torque, 1100 ft.-lbs. of nut-busting torque. The first thing we did with it was pulling the lug nuts off of a car dolly that had been on for at least 15 years, very rusty, and it pulled them off like they had been greased. Its power is incredible so you have to be careful not to over tighten. It has a proprietary 2-Mode Drive Control which is very controllable but 100 ft-lbs happens very quickly when tightening. It is the perfect choice for tear downs but if using for low torque assembly work it is probably too much power.
The feature that makes Milwaukee 2763-22 M18 FUEL the most powerful cordless impact wrench on the market is its POWERSTATE Brushless Motor. Instead of wearable brushes, Milwaukee engineered more steel and copper into their motor. This results in longer motor life as a result of reduced friction, less heat buildup, and higher efficiency. The company says Powerstate is able to generate about 25 percent more torque than the average 18V cordless impact wrench.
Another great feature of this impact is the RedLink Plus Intelligence System. What is the RedLink Plus Intelligence System? This is an onboard electronic system exclusive to Milwaukee – built into each cordless power tool to optimize performance and decrease overheating of motor and batteries. One of the biggest enemies to a motor is heat. As a motor's RPM decreases under heavy load, heat builds up from lack of heat dispersion by the fan. This "quadratic equation" of heat build-up will eventually melt the windings and wiring, scorch the commutator and eventually cause the motor to fail. With RedLink Plus Intelligence, users no longer have to worry about that.
Battery & Run Time:
The best cordless impact wrench comes with the best battery. The Milwaukee 2763-22 is powered by one M18 Redlithium XC 5.0Ah battery. This is one of the best lithium-ion batteries for cordless power tools in the industry. It delivers up to 2.5 times more run time, 20% more power and 2 times more life than standard 18V lithium-ion batteries.
Milwaukee M18 REDLITHIUM XC 5.0 Ah Battery | By Milwaukee Tool
This battery works great with all M18 Milwaukee tools such as cordless drills, impact drivers, angle drills, portable vacuum. It lasts very long and can be used in any dirty environment. Believe it or not, this battery and the tool were even dropped in a tub of gear oil and it still works! 2 batteries would be included if you buy this Milwaukee cordless impact wrench from Amazon. So you can use one while charging the other.
Milwaukee is a familiar brand name, and the company has a long history of producing some of the best power tools on the market. The Milwaukee 2763-22 M18 FUEL has the most powerful, long-lasting battery of all the cordless impact wrenches on the market. If you're making money from your tools, we'd highly recommend this one.
#2 DEWALT DCF899 20v MAX XR Brushless High Torque 1/2″ Cordless Impact Wrench Review
If you're looking for a super strong impact wrench but you're a Dewalt guy, then look no further than the DEWALT DCF899 Cordless Impact Wrench. We used it on a car and this machine is a beast powerful to remove anything. We think the Milwaukee is more powerful but if you have this Dewalt tool then you would stay with it. And did you know that Dewalt is trying to produce all of their products in the USA? So far, DeWalt has 7 US manufacturing facilities that ship over 90 million Made In The USA products every year.
Heavy-duty impact mechanism with max torque 700 ft. /lbs. , breakaway torque 1,200 ft. /pounds
Brushless motor for superior performance
Compact design of 8-13/16 in. length and weighs only 7.2 lb.
Multi-speed control for a variety of applications (0-400/1,200/1,900 RPM)
1/2 in. anvil with detent pin (also available in hog ring)
LED light with 20-second delay for increased visibility
Withstands job site conditions as a durable and reliable tool
Includes (1) DCF889 impact wrench, (1) DCB205 5.0Ah batteries and a multi-voltage charger
The DEWALT DCF899 is engineered with a DEWALT XR brushless motor that delivers up to 57% more run time than a conventional brushed motor. While mechanical carbon brush motors generate friction and heat buildup resulting in lost energy & less runtime, Dewalt's brushless motors run cooler and more efficiently enabling longer runtime between charges. They're widely used in most of Dewalt's cordless power tools such as cordless air compressors, cordless drills or cordless nailers.
This impact delivers up to 700 ft. lbs. of maximum torque and 1200 ft. lbs. of max breakaway torque. It is very powerful, the motor and control seem really smooth. The rusted bolt is always tough to take off, but this impact wrench can remove it with ease. It's a lot of power for just removing wheel nuts but if you work on a lot of rusted cars and trucks, this is what you would want.
We love its multi-speed control (0-400/1,200/1,900 RPM). This feature allows users to use this monster for light and medium duty applications. And even though this tool is ergonomic and lightweight, it can handle a 6-8ft drop and the anvil is resistant to shearing and breaking!
This cordless impact wrench is powered by one Dewalt DCB205 5.0Ah lithium-ion battery that provides up to 60% more capacity than standard 20V MAX battery pack (DCB200). It is compatible with the complete line of DEWALT 20-Volt MAX tools and can be charged by all 20V Dewalt chargers.
This battery is really great for the "big jobs". It's one of the factors that makes the DEWALT DCF899 one of the most powerful cordless impact wrenches in its class. We charged it up during lunchtime and then it worked the rest of the day. We really like the way it maintains full power right up to the end of the charge. It doesn't slowly lose power the way the NiCad batteries do.
Why should I go with Dewalt cordless impact wrench? If you buy Dewalt's, you'll get a tool that performs well, has a decent warranty, will last many years, and of course, at a reasonable price. We also love Dewalt because if you have a Dewalt impact wrench, you can use the same batteries and chargers on your circular saw and drill, etc.
#3 Ingersoll Rand W7150 1/2 In. 20 V High-Torque Cordless Impact Wrench Review
Just 5 years ago, when we got the Ingersoll Rand W7150 with 780 ft-lbs, Milwaukee had a ½" impact wrench that was only 400 ft-lbs. At that time, W7150 was the most powerful cordless impact wrench on the market. It was one of the most sought-after models in the mechanic shops. Now, most people prefer the brushless motor of the Milwaukee and DEWALT but we do believe the W7150 might still have the edge vs them.
Delivers 780 ft.-lbs. of maximum reverse torque and 1100 ft.-lbs. of nut-busting torque — from a cordless impact wrench that weighs only 6.8 lbs.
High-power rare earth magnet (neodymium) motor offers long life and high power
Variable-speed switch with electronic brake provides maximum control of the tool
Steel-lined aluminum hammer case is strong and lightweight for maximum protection of internal components
All-metal drive train and hammer mechanism are robust, durable and optimized for maximum power and efficiency
Patent-pending metal reinforced housing is ready to work even after repeated drops
Patent-pending soft touch over-molded grip minimizes vibration, reduces fatigue and enhances user comfort during extended use
For use with BL2010 3.0Ah battery
The Ingersoll Rand W7150-K2 is a workhorse power tool designed for use by professionals on the job site as well as everyday use around the home or on projects. With up to 1,100 foot-pounds of nut-busting torque and 780 foot-pounds of maximum torque, it punishes tough bolts and powers through heavy-duty applications such as suspension work and heavy equipment repair. We used it to remove some rusted bolts on a 1992 Lincoln Town Car and it loosened these bolts with ease. However, the Milwaukee 2763-22 did that easier and quicker.
This cordless impact wrench uses a brushed motor. While many people prefer a brushless motor to a brushed motor, we should know that they have their pros and cons.
On the pro side, brushed motors are generally inexpensive and reliable. They also offer simple two-wire control and require fairly simple control or no control at all in fixed-speed designs. If the brushes are replaceable, these motors also boast a somewhat extended operational life. And because they need a few external components or no external components at all, brushed motors tend to handle rough environments reliably. For the downside, brush motors require periodic maintenance as brushes must be cleaned and replaced for continued operation, ruling them out for critical medical designs. Also, if high torque is required, brush motors fall a bit flat. As speed increases, brush friction increases and viable torque decreases.
And a tool with a brushed motor generates more heat and draws more energy than a tool with a brushless motor.
The Ingersoll Rand W7150-K2 is designed to withstand harsh usage. It's one of the most durable impact wrenches we've ever seen. It features a patented steel-reinforced frame and is encased in impact- and chemical-resistant housing to ensure long-lasting performance. It was dropped from 12 feet and it still works. Incredible!
Powering this cordless impact wrench is a 20v 3.0Ah lithium-ion battery. This battery delivers a high-charge capacity with low internal impedance for maximum power delivery and run-time. We're not sure how many lug nuts the tool can remove on one charge but we got about 5 hours of industrial use. And the battery took roughly 1 hour to charge.
The charger is large which takes up bench space but also adds stability. It has one of the coolest features we have seen on a charger, a USB charge port. You can charge all your 5V USB devices like tablets and smartphones right from the charger. There is a simple LED system to notify you the status of the charge and also beeps when finished.
Ingersoll Rand is one of the most recognized industrial and commercial brands in the world. For over 145 years, Ingersoll Rand has provided a wide range of technologically advanced, highly reliable and low maintenance air compressors and power tools. It knows air and power tools better than anyone.
The Ingersoll Rand W7150-K2 is one of the most impressive cordless tools we've ever used. If you've used it, then you'd never let it go.

Subpages contain training material for Studio validation rule creation. The tasks below can be done by people who have access to XMLdation Studio. Each task lists its purpose, description and a walkthrough on how it can be completed.
A - Basics - This section focuses on main features within Studio, including validation rule generation. Learning these gives user enough information to use Studio, create simple validation rules, test implementation and make changes to existing validation projects (if already available to user).
B - Advanced - focuses on creating validation rules requiring more advanced logic than automatically generated rules allow. Basics of a query language(OCL) is introduced here. Mastering this section means user is able to create advanced validation rules requiring data from multiple XML elements.
C - Expert - handling cases involving a collection (usually elements with 0..n / 1..n occurrences in schema). Mastering this means user has a proficiency in creating any type of validation rule required in ISO 20022 messages (with the help of XMLdation wiki reference).


I just finished my first Arduino project. Its individual components are very basic, but I love the combination of them.
The Arduino code is fairly simple, it takes the light sensor's value (a value between 0 and 1024 (well, in fact it's a smaller range, because the screen's black is somewhere around 900, and white is about 200)) and maps it to various tones (again a value between 0 and 1024) that I send to the Piezo speaker.
Looking forward to get some feedback, or even pull requests.
As you can guess, it didn't take me very long to implement this code, but I'd rather see it as a seed for inspiration for better, bigger projects. Let me know if you have used my code as a basis to create something more sophisticated.

Google's Sundar Pichai gets $240 million in stock grants, pushing take toward $1 billion
Portion of awards tied to parent company's performance
This undated handout image obtained October 23, 2019 courtesy of Google shows Sundar Pichai with one of Google's quantum computers in the Santa Barbara lab. – Scientists claimed on October 23, 2019 to have achieved a near-mythical state of computing in which a new generation of machine vastly outperforms the world's fastest super-computer, known as "quantum supremacy". A team of experts working on Google's Sycamore machine said their quantum system had executed a calculation in 200 seconds that would have taken a classic computer 10,000 years to complete.In a study published in Nature, the international team designed the Sycamore quantum processer, made up of 54 qubits interconnected in a lattice pattern. They used the machine to perform a task related to random-number generation, identifying patterns amid seemingly random spools of figures.The Sycamore, just a few millimetres across, solved the task within 200 seconds, a process that on a regular machine would take 10,000 years — several hundreds of millions of times faster, in other words. Google's CEO Sundar Pichai hailed the result as a sea change in computing.

"As we work to build a more helpful Google, we know our responsibility to help starts at home. For us, that means being a good neighbor in the place where it all began over 20 years ago: the San Francisco Bay Area," Google CEO Sundar Pichai wrote in a blog post announcing the company's $1 billion housing commitment earlier this year.

Sundar Pichai, the Google CEO recently handed the reins of the firm's parent company Alphabet, has been granted $240 million in stock grants, with $90 million of them tied to Alphabet's performance, according to a regulatory filing. Pichai will also start receiving a substantial raise Jan. 1, to $2 million a year, Alphabet said in a Securities Exchange Commission filing.
The massive compensation package was given in recognition of Pichai's "expanded role as CEO of Alphabet and Google," according to the filing. On Thursday, Pichai received $90 million in stock awards that will vest, becoming his property, by the end of 2022, depending on Alphabet's shareholder returns compared to the S&P 100, the filing said. A special provision means this batch of Pichai's stock awards could be doubled to a value of $180 million, or cut to zero, based on Alphabet's performance, the filing said.
Pichai also received two other stock grants, of $120 million and $30 million, neither tied to performance but subject to his continued employment.
As CEO of Mountain View digital advertising giant Google, Pichai was earning a $650,000 salary. Earlier this month, Google co-founders Larry Page — who was Alphabet's CEO — and Sergey Brin — Alphabet's president — stepped down from the company, and Pichai was named CEO of Google and Alphabet.
While Pichai had not received stock grants since 2016, he raked in hundreds of millions of dollars in such awards in the previous years. His $200 million grant in 2016 followed a $100 million grant in 2015 and a $250 million grant in 2014, pushing his total take, counting the latest awards, toward $1 billion.

In this video I am at my favorite place"Swasey Rec Area", riding the "Enticer" trail. Little did I know what was around the next turn. Hear the sirens? When you decide to try it "one more time" wasn't a good idea. I fractured my left scapula. Wierd.


The day will be the 3rd Thursday of every month. We will be meet at the church across from Munger's Market. Munger's Market has asked that we NOT park in their parking lot. From Munger's we will have a timer that will send people off in one minute intervals. We will go counter clockwise around the South Butte loop with the end just short of Munger's on South Butte Rd.
This is a ride your own pace ride and we will let you know your times so you can track your improvements througout the year. If there is enough doing the event we could have some end of year prizes for most improved, fastest time, and maybe some others.
This is a no pressure ride (other than what you put on yourself), and would be a great way to track your improvements throughout the year. We will also have someone to drive the course after to look for people who might have had a mechanical problem.
Have a Great Day and Happy Cycling.

How to Give Strategically
1. Philanthropy California recommends all its members and the funding community to donate cash rather than goods as they can create a "second disaster" in the affected region. Cash is flexible and can be used immediately in response to a disaster. It also allows disaster relief organizations the means to procure supplies locally, reducing transport delays and support the recovery of local economies.
2. Check out this blog from the Center on Disaster Philanthropy on how to give strategically.
3. Download the Center for Disaster Philanthropy's Playbook, which is a compilation of philanthropic strategies, promising practices, and lessons learned that aim at helping philanthropic organizations and individual donors be more strategic with their investments and recognize the importance of supporting long-term recovery for vulnerable populations.
4. This blog on Hurricane Dorian offers suggestions for funders both in and outside the path of the storm
The following trusted philanthropic organizations have set up funds to support communities that will be/have impacted by Hurricane Dorian. Check this section often as additional vetted funds may be posted.

Canada. Canadian Army. Canadian Infantry Brigade Group, 3rd
Following an October 1953 government announcement that all army formations would be transferred to the Active Force order of battle, the Regular Army became the largest it had ever been in peacetime. Among its components was the 3rd Canadian Infantry Brigade Group (3 CIBG) which, along with 2 CIBG, was training to be able to replace the German or Korean Brigade on the next rotation. 3 CIBG was under Eastern Command and had its Headquarters at Gagetown. In 1959, its regiments included the 1st and 2nd Battalions, Royal 22e Regiment and the 1st and 2nd Battalions, The Black Watch (Royal Highland Regiment) of Canada. In 1961, NATO build up increased. In addition to Canada's NATO Brigade, 4 CIBG, and its reinforcements, the Army planned for the deployment of another brigade group if things got serious enough prior to an outbreak of hostilities. 3 CIBG was selected to be the contingency brigade group, made up of the Lord Strathcona's Horse; 1st Battalion, the Royal Canadian Regiment; 1st Battalion; 1st Battalion, Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry; and 3rd Battalion, Royal 22nd Regiment. Upon the creation of Mobile Command in 1965, 3 CIBG in Gagetown remained tasked to back up 4 CIBG and was equipped and trained to conduct mechanized warfare.
Fonds consists of four reports on Summer Concentration of 3 CIBG for the years 1961, 1963, 1964, and 1965.
The immediate source of acquisition is unknown.
The following entries in the Document Collection are found under Canadian Infantry Brigade Group, 3:
73/1282: 3 Canadian Infantry Brigade Group. 29 Jul 1962. Report on logistic support group trial, 1962. Restricted.
80/357: 3 Canadian Infantry Brigade Group. 20 Dec 1967. User trial No 7/67, Field Rainwear.
As well, there are approximately 10 entries on 3 Canadian Infantry Brigade Group in the Kardex collection.
At the National Archives of Canada, the Directorate of History and Heritage Series of the Department on National Defence contains a sub-series of Kardex system files (R112-104-3-E). Among these, of particular interest, is the 3 CIBG Summer Concentration report, 1960 [260C3 .003 (D4)] and 3 CIBG Regulations and Orders [260C3 .003 (D1)].
Of interest as well is the Headquarters, 3 Canadian Infantry Brigade Group and Signal Squadron, Gagetown Series of the Department of National Defence fonds (R112-428-7-E).
Further accruals are not expected.
