CTA rider: Need more police at CTA stops
2009-10-27 15:00:00 Patrick Xavier wrote to "Going Public" about what he describes as a "creepy CTA encounter." His letter continues after the jump."On early Sunday morning I was returning home alone from a party where I live in Rogers Park. I was exiting down the stairs of the 'L' platform at the Morse stop on the Red Line. While doing so, I passed who I assumed was a drunk man in this mid 30s to early 40s.His appearance did not suggest homelessness, but he definitely looked as if he had been on the street for a while. He was very dirty and flustered looking. He was leaning heavily against the wall, holding on to the rail with both hands, trying to maintain...
Orkut Stops Migration To Facebook – Contradicts Google’s Policies
2009-10-27 09:13:00 The mission statement of the Google data liberation front reads as follows: “Users should be able to control the data they store in any of Google’s products. Our team’s goal is to make it easier to move data in and out.” However it seems that all this was nothing in the prospect of losing consumers. Sometime back ago face book launched their export tool, which enabled users of Orkut to export their contact information including their email ids to facebook, however as soon as this happened, the feature developed a bug, which according to Goggle happened as they were upgrading the feature to offer enhanced security . When the feature came back, users were in for a surprise, the feature had everything but the email ids, i.e. You could export a plethora of information but not the email ids, hence making the tool completely useless. The official stand of Google on this is - “Mass exportation of email is not standard on most social networks — when ...

And, here at ChicagoNow, we're looking out for you. We don't want you to be that guy. Or gal.Which guy?

Blackhawks' Toews and Kane must show the butt stops here
2009-08-31 16:31:00 Jonathan Toews and Patrick Kane have had the same parts of their anatomy singled out this summer.These Blackhawks Buttheads, however, are no longer joined at the hip, just the posterior.Of course, in Toews' situation, his rearguard action is considered nothing but positive.In Kane's character assassination case, the jury is still out--and will be for the near future--on whether he will be labelled more of an asset or an ass.Team Canada coach Mike Babcock delivered a unqiue perspective on Toews' abilities. As the Detroit Red Wings coach, as well, Babcock has seen Toews from all angles and obviously is liking the look he sees from the rear."He's a man-child, with a heavy butt, good for a hockey player," he said.Who knew...

Budbrake Modulator : Proportional Brake Control For Safer Bike Stops
2009-06-08 13:17:00 Front wheel lockup upon brake lever activation is something that often sends riders (beginners and experienced alike) to pitch-over the handlebars and get injured often seriously. We are all told to feather the front brakes, and apply more braking to the rear wheel especially in a downhill scenario. But what happens in a panic situation? We are all bound to get the shivers and haphazardly slam both levers with full might in the hope that it will stop us quicker. But that's when the front wheel locks up, the bike skids and off you go toppling over the bars.Now, can a mechanical contraption be made to commit to such braking control automatically for you while you enjoy your ride?Thats where this nifty little device comes in. I contacted Bud Nilsson from Lodi, CA to explain his patented invention to me and perhaps send me his last sample (incidentally, he had it installed on his bike) so I could take a look at it and see what it was for myself. I have previously introduced the brakes ...

The Daisy ad Creator, Tony Schwartz Stops His Journey
2008-06-17 12:53:00 Hi friends... who doesn't remember that Daisy ad -- the unforgettable 1964 presidential campaign daisy ad! Yes... true that that's really, miles away from our generation, but it was so famous that moved the society. Even I didn't know about it a couple of years ago... until I got a chance to watch it out on a CD that recorded that infamous daisy ad. The daisy ad starts with a little girl counting the petals of a daisy, pulling off one-by-one and soon there was a great transition to a countdown of a nuclear blast.Well friends.. the bad news is that the creator of that infamous daisy ad, ended his journey. Tony Schwartz, a self-taught enigmatic creator of this daisy ad died Sunday in Manhattan. The death of Tony Schwartz was announced by his daughter, Kayla Schwartz-Burridge. The creator of daisy ad - Tony Schwartz started off his career as a graphic designer, madea transition to the world of media and marked his name as a man who made a political history with the day ad, harness...
Fake bus stop stops stray Alzheimer patients.
2008-06-09 18:05:00 The idea was first tried by the Benrath senior citizens home in Dsseldorf where the staff placed a fake bus stop sign at the sidewalk near the premises. The only difference between the Benrath sign and the real deal is that no buses stop at Benrath. The Benrath staff took to installing the fake sign as an attempt at solving the problem of old patients going astray trying to return to their previous homes or families, often to be collected by the police and brought back to the home at Bentrath. The patients are old, and their memories of recent events are often non-existant. Their long term memories, however, are often very clear to them. It seems they recognize the bus stop sign, remembering they used to take the bus to go home. Now, if they stray into the street, they wait patiently by the bus stop, soon forgetting why they went outside in the first place. Then they are collected by the staff, and brought inside again. The idea has apparently proved so successful it's tested in o...

Panic Stops - Emergency Braking & How to Avoid them
2008-06-06 16:00:00 Some of the most gut-wrenching moments while riding occur when something magically appears in front of you and you have to jam on the binders to avoid a collision. You can make life easier by learning how to avoid these situations altogether, or knowing exactly what to do when it comes time to stop suddenly. The quickest way to stop is by using a combination of both front and rear brakes. The front brake should be applied gradually, rather than grabbed suddenly. This will decrease the chance of it locking up. The rear brake should be used firmly, to the point of impending lock up. Both tires will howl on the verge of lock up, and that's when the quickest stops are made. Find an empty parking lot and practice different scenarios including bumps, while turning, and in the rain. Motorcycles equipped with Anti-Lock Braking Systems (ABS) can be hauled down to a rapid stop without ever locking the tires up. While riding, you should be scanning ...

Good pit stops help Busch pull away to easy victory
2008-06-01 21:06:00 DOVER, Del. — Same song, different verse. Points leader Kyle Busch made mincemeat of the competition and a mockery of Sunday’s Best Buy 400 at Dover International Speedway. In a race that stayed green for the final 153 laps, Busch gained a total of 5 seconds over runner-up Carl Edwards on his final two pit stops, built a lead that topped 8 seconds and cruised in his No. 18 Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota to a 4.225-second win, his fourth of the season and the eighth of his career (watch video). Pole-sitter Greg Biffle ran third, followed by Matt Kenseth, Jeff Gordon and Martin Truex Jr., as only six cars finished on the lead lap. Busch grabbed the lead from Edwards during a cycle of green-flag pit stops that ended on Lap 237. NASCAR called a caution on Lap 243 for debris in Turn 2 — under which the leaders remained on the track — and after a restart on Lap 248, Edwards dogged Busch until both drivers brought their cars to the pits under green on Lap 319. Bu...

CCW Permit Holder Stops Mass Shooting?Again
2008-05-29 09:10:00 From Dustin’s Gun Blog: In the small town of Winnemucca Nevada a man bent on performing a mass shooting at a bar was stopped by an armed CCW permit holder who happened to be in the right place at the right time. The alleged mass murderer had already killed two victims & had injured two others with gunshot wounds, but after reloading to resume his shooting spree he was shot & killed by an armed CCW permit holder who was also at the bar. The alleged mass murderer & his two dead victims were already dead by the time Police arrived on the scene once again proving that when seconds count, only the immediate responders are already on the scene, while first responders (Police) are only minutes away. This is further proof that gun free zones are a travesty that must be ended. You have to like happy endings. And gun free zones not only need to be ended, but carry zones need to be established. I would be happy to drink in a bar where I knew responsible people were arme...

2008-05-26 19:16:00 Let's begin with a short newsround around some non-English newspapers, shall we?We are very pleasantly surprised to find a review of the scholar book A Breath of Fresh Eyre on the German website Literatur Kritik. German-speakers might find it interesting.Il Velino - in Italian - has an article on gypsies which includes several references to Jane Eyre.Le Monde slips a reference to Charlotte Brontë in a very interesting - though not without controversy - article from its Books section.The Spanish El País rather digresses in a political article when it pauses to think that expression 'time stopped' is 'cheesy' and typical of Charlotte Brontë (?) when describing an eternal-love embrace. Oh, make of that silliness what you will.Another article from a Spanish newspaper, ABC, has Jane Austen and the Brontë sisters all uniformly tied to the 'romantic novel' category.The actual English news is not a paradigm of Brontë knowledge either.

Pero kung mangyayari iyon, magiging masayang-masaya ako. Pero depende na lang po iyan sa mga tao kung iboboto nila ako ulit,” saad ni Katrina. Sa tingin ba niya ay mas matindi ang competition ngayon?
