If you're reading this then chances are that you're not currently on a bike ride. But you should be, or have one planned for later. Even if it's just a quick spin.
Here are five essential tips to help convince you of this salient fact:
1. Why wouldn't you? Seriously.
Take a couple of seconds to run your plans for the rest of the day through this handy equation: time to get there, plus ride, plus time to get home again, equals ride!
If there's even the slightest potential to get a pedal in then you really ought to pursue it. It can be all too easy to get into the rhythm of not riding but within five turns of the cranks you'll have forgotten what that felt like.
What makes you a better rider? Bike time. So go and get some.
2. The weather could always get worse.
Unless you can, hand on heart, say that you've just looked out of the window and a cow has whistled passed a la the film Twister then, in theory, the weather could always get worse.
Not that that affects mountain biking of course. Fat bikes were designed to work in snow, so there are very few actual excuses.
You might have to pull a few layers on, but that'll just make you appreciate the t-shirt and shorts days when they finally arrive all the more.
Skin is waterproof and all that, get outside!
3. Your bike is currently up to date.
The last couple of years have felt like a never-ending conveyor belt of mountain bike standards. Buying or building a new bike can feel like that old TV game show when a conveyor belt of stuff whizzes passed and a sweaty contestant has to somehow memorise it all.
"Boost front hub"
"Metric shock"
"Coil not air"
"Cuddly toy"
*Audience applauds*
In this game, it seems you have a very small window wherein your bike is current and relevant enough for you to even contemplate sneaking a picture of it on to Instagram.
In fact, by the time you've finished reading this list it might well be out of date again so just go now. GO!
4. It makes financial sense. Sort of.
If you're as into bikes as we suspect that you might be then it's very possible that your two-wheeled pride and joy has cost you a coin or twelve. Why would you spend that kind of cash and not take advantage of it?
As we've already outlined above, it might only be 'current' for a few more hours too, so to make the most out of it, hadn't you better go and throw a leg over it?
In some groups of riding buddies extensive winter riding is even frowned upon as 'sneaky practice'. Ignore that, it's an investment. And anyway, you won't be able to hear them when you're wheel-spinning lumps of earth down their throats come the spring.
5. It's supposedly good for you, isn't it?
Amidst all the gnarcore, super-sick scrubbing and shredding worthy of high-fiving the very skin right off your palms over it can be easy to forget that riding a bike is actually good for you.
OK, OK, that's not what it's about. It's about 'feeding the stoke' and 'riding the dream' and 'today's office' social media posts, but, riding your bike is actually exercise.
Exercise releases endorphins. Endorphins have an almost morphine-like effect amongst your synapses which makes you feel pretty damn good.
Burns fat... Good for you... Makes you feel good? Not a bad deal.
Go ride.
Do you ride? Upload your latest clip today and take on your peers with Clashem.

No black academics have labored in senior management in any British university for the final three years, in step with employment facts.
Figures published via the better education information corporation report no black academics in the elite staff class of "managers, administrators and senior officials" in 2015-sixteen – the 0.33 yr in a row that this has took place.
a number of the 535 senior officials who declared their ethnicity, 510 have been white, 15 were Asian and 10 had been recorded as "other such as blended". Thirty senior teachers both refused or did not document an ethnicity.
The figures also display universities appoint more black workforce as cleaners, receptionists or porters than as lecturers or professors.
David Lammy, the Labour MP for Tottenham and a former higher schooling minister, said: "this is definitely shocking. i'm appalled that better training is so deeply unrepresentative of the u . s ..

Residents of some north Chennai localities may soon have an alternative route to avoid traffic jams on congested roads.
The Water Resources Department (WRD) has started preliminary work to lay a road along the north Buckingham canal for a stretch of nearly 11 km.
Once the new road is laid, residents will be able to avoid getting stuck in traffic, particularly on Manali Expressway and Ennore High Road.
Residents of areas such as Korukkupet and Tiruvottiyur can travel to other parts of the city faster.
The department is carrying out the Rs. 9-crore work under the Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission. The road will be laid on stretches of Bharathi Nagar, Korukkupet, Nehru Nagar, IOC and Kargil Nagar in Tiruvottiyur and Ennore.
Officials of the WRD said the canal, which runs for a distance of 17.3 km from Central railway station to Ennore Creek, had been widened and provided with a flood-protection wall.
This road-laying project was also part of the improvement work, they added.
"We plan to finish laying the road for a minimum of two km by this month-end. The seven-metre-wide road will be used as an inspection track," said an official.
The department often finds it difficult to transport equipment to clean the canal due to lack of space or encroachments. The blacktopped road will also help transport desilting equipment, and prevent further encroachments from coming up on the stretch.
The department plans to complete the road-laying project by May.

how depression changes your life

depression has changed my life so much. its this unspoken thing that follows me everywhere. but no one wants to talk about it. it drives me nuts if i bring it up at all in my house or around my family they just turn their heads away. i just dont get it. arent they suppose to be helping instead of turning away. anyone have some light to help me shine on this problem

You are right they should be supporting you. Maybe they are finding it difficult to deal with so they are pushing it aside. Many people with depression will feel extremely misunderstood and alone. Try sitting them down and talking to them about how you feel. Have you got in to anything such as Counselling? Do you not have any friends you could talk to? I know talking to friends can be difficult as they are not depressed therefore will not understand it very well. Although I'm sure they can be supportive and sensitive towards you.

Understanding your spouse or partner is affected by your depression is important. Depression affects us and people we love. Shame in having depression is an enemy to overcomming and managing depression and it's symptoms.
This article helped me (below); I have experience Postnatal and relationship depression with relapses under stress and a residual effect to verbal abuse as a child giving depression a strong base to fester. I have volunteered at a postnatal support group for two years as a facillitator. My gift back was to try and show some women there is hope and share what I know. I am a mother and a Uni student at present.=] Councilling helps and surfing web for good advice and forums and talking to your GP if they are good... good luck. The book men are from mars and women from venus can help you understand how male partners react to their partner and how they offer support in a different way to what women see as caring often....Spouses can sometimes even feel depressed themselves... cheers take care..

I've been on Effexor from http://goo.gl/kHgRdx only one week but am cautiously very optimistic. Prior to this I was on citalopram but still feeling very low and sleeping poorly, feeling like I needed to be in bed 12-16 hours a day. Now I am waking naturally after only 8 hours sleep and finding it much easier to concentrate at work. I can hardly believe it is working so quickly but I feel so much better. I've had no side effects.

This book contains the papers prepared for a conference held at the Wisconsin Law School in 2011 to honour the work of Stewart Macaulay, one of the most famous contracts scholars of his generation.
Macaulay has been writing about contracts and contract law for over 50 years; the 1960s were particularly productive years for him, when he introduced many novel ideas into the scholarly world. Macaulay's foundational work for what is now called relational contract theory was published during this period. Macaulay is also known for his use of empirical research and interdisciplinary theories to illuminate our knowledge of contracting practices.
The papers in this volume reflect, in diverse ways, on the subsequent influence and the contemporary relevance of Macaulay's work. All the contributors are important contracts scholars in their own right: David Campbell and John Wightman from the UK, Brian Bix, Jay Feinman, Robert Gordon, Claire Hill, Charles Knapp, Ethan Leib, Deborah Post, Edward Rubin, Carol Sanger, Robert Scott, Gordon Smith, Josh Whitford (with Li-Wen Lin) and William Woodward from the USA. The volume also reproduces Macaulay's most cited paper: Non-Contractual Relations in Business.

The other British No 1 was there, though: the one who has been around far longer than Greg Rusedski, and who was at the top of the national game when Tim Henman was but a gleam in a marketing man's eye. Sam Smith, the British No 1 woman since October 1996, was back for another tilt at the title which has eluded her throughout her career. "I want to bloody win it," she declared after her first-round match in Telford on Tuesday.
That was a fascinating contest, pitting 25-year-old Smith against Hannah Collin, who at 15 represents the brightest hope of the next generation. Smith, who is ranked 596 places above Collin on the WTA computer, should have dealt swiftly and easily with the youngster, but that would have flown in the face of tradition, for she usually manages to get into a terrible pickle in her first match at Telford.
So it proved on Tuesday when Smith, having won the first set 6-2, seemingly forgot which way round her racket went and lost the second set to love. She pulled herself together to take the final set 6-3 and justify her top seeding, but was snarlingly unhappy about her performance afterwards.
Things went a little better for Smith on Wednesday, but she still had a major hiccup against Helen Crook, a lowly ranked youngster with a booming serve. Smith once again lost her way in the second set having won the first, but this time came to her senses sooner to wrap the match up 6- 3 6-4. And this time she was in a talkative mood afterwards.
Smith is sometimes described as moody, even surly, but this is unfair. She is a complex character, intelligent and vulnerable in equal measure, and not used to the kind of adoring media attention accorded to Henman and Rusedski. This, she reckoned, was one of the benefits of playing at Telford. "It's useful to me," she said. "Useful match experience, and useful media exposure, the sort of thing that will do me good for Wimbledon next year and for when I perform well on the Tour. If I'm in the right frame of mind I can benefit from being here."
Frame of mind is important to Smith, who perhaps sometimes thinks too much for her own good - or at least, for her own game. Having reached 103 in the world in 1991, and represented Britain at the Barcelona Olympics, she abandoned full-time tennis to take a history degree at Exeter University. Since returning to the game in 1995, Smith has broken into the world's top 100, and inspired a troop of younger players to pursue her. But it has been a hard, sometimes lonely existence on the international circuit, and earlier this year, after a disappointing first-round exit at Wimbledon, Smith found herself becoming disheartened.
"I'd like to have been more consistent this year," she said. "I did really well in the US, broke into the top 100, and it was all going well. Then I found myself with a lot of ranking points to defend, coming up against players who were really strong on clay, which is not my best surface. I lost in a few first-round matches and to be honest it was starting to get to me." If she had been feeling more confident, Smith thought, she could have made more of the grass-court season, which suits her athletic game.
A change of direction was needed. For two years Smith had been the leading light of Alan Jones's coaching squad in north London. But recently she decided a new coach might be the answer, and linked up with Ian Barclay, who is in charge of Britain's leading young male players at Bisham Abbey.
Smith is certainly enjoying herself there, and all her enthusiasm for the game seems to have returned. "It is just great down there," she declared. "I think it's fun for the younger boys to have someone like me to hit with. Every time I leave there I feel tired but uplifted, which is how it should be."
Barclay, a veteran of 40 years in the game who is best known for his work with Pat Cash, is delighted with the new addition to his team. "We're a very happy family knocking around together down there," he said. "We have a great time joking around, and I think it is starting to pay dividends. Who says you can't teach an old dog new tricks? Of course, I wouldn't call Sam a dog..."
The key to Barclay's approach is self-belief. "I don't have a negative drop of blood in me," he said. "Sam has to believe that she can move up 20 places, then another 20, then another. She has to feel good about herself, bear up, keep a happy face, and believe she can be the best. I would like her to feel that she has fully realised her potential." Smith is determined to give it her best shot. "I want to make real inroads into the top 100 next year," she said. "The best is definitely yet to come from me."
A 6-4 6-1 victory over Louise Latimer, one of the youngsters she has encouraged, in yesterday's final at Telford, delighted Smith and her new coach. "I got the job done," she said afterwards. "I have taken the pressure of expectations, an unusual situation to me, and so in future I will know I can deal with it." The confidence is coming back.

text: A callback solution should work for the use case at hand. If the = optimizers would stick the head up from the sand periodically, say once per = iteration=20 or once per k iterations, they could call a user supplied callback. The user supplied callback can then peek into the event queue and determine whether the UI element to stop the optimization has been selected. If selected, the callback sets an abort flag that the optimizer checks when = it returns from the callback. We have used this methodology in VTK and ITK for 10 years. No threading needed. No exceptions handling needed (exceptions should really be = reserved for truly exceptional events and not for state management). The difficulty is doing this is that many of the netlib routines never stick there up from the sand. So there is no opportunity to call the user supplied callback. A general event mechanism would not only have to be used through vnl but also down into netlib. Jim -----Original Message----- From: vxl-users-admin@... [mailto:vxl-users-admin@...]On Behalf Of Amitha Perera Sent: Tuesday, October 18, 2005 12:52 PM To: Ian Scott Cc: Karthik Krishnan; vxl-users@... Subject: Re: [Vxl-users] VNL Optimizers responding to events I think the issue is more complex than that. What Karthik suggests requires multiple threads in vnl. For the optimizer to stop its iterations, it needs to be told to do so *from its thread*. This could be by toggling a variable that that is monitored at the beginning of each iteration, or by calling a function that will return "continue" or "stop". Somewhere in this will be a variable that will be read from the optimizer thread but will be written to from the GUI thread. This requires mutexes to do it right. Not using mutexes in this case would probably work most of the time, but I think if we are going to add something like this, it should be done correctly. I guess a solution could be to use an indicator function---a function with signature "bool stopnow()"---which is passed in as a parameter to the optimizer. The thread-safety issues would then by the user's responsibility, because he'll have to implement this function. Of course, as Ian wrote, this would only really work when the vnl routine is more than a simple wrapper around netlib. Ian also suggested exceptions. In this case the function could throw an exception instead of returning a bool. However, I think a lot of vnl (and vxl) is unfortunately not exception-safe. Using exceptions is quite likely to leak memory, etc. Also keep in mind that many routines in netlib (and therefore in vnl) are not threadsafe. All in all, I think it's doable, but would require some effort and thinking through some of the issues raised when mixing exceptions and threads with code not written with either in mind.

Art Basel Miami Beach Concerned About Possible "Occupy" Protest
Where will the one percent be this week? Glugging down free champagne and writing checks for million dollar art works during Art Basel Miami Beach, of course. Naturally, rumors of the 99 percenters staging an Occupy Wall Street related protest at the ritzy art fair are swirling, and ABMB is so concerned they've sent out a letter about the possibility to gallerists.
Here's the letter obtained by ArtInfo:
Dear Gallerist,
I hope this email finds you well, and we look forward to welcoming you very soon at the Miami Beach Convention Center.
As you may have read or heard, there is the possibility of an Occupy protest taking place in the vicinity of Art Basel Miami Beach and/or its coinciding events.
I wanted you to know that we are monitoring the situation and working closely with local authorities to ensure the show's operations, while at the same time respecting the First Amendment.
Please direct any media inquiries regarding this issue to me.
With best regards,
Dorothee Dines
PR and Media Manager
The Occupy movement in Miami-Dade has been surprisingly low key and peaceful. Though, that's mostly because the protesters are tucked away in Government Center.
Could a more visible protest during one of the county's key cultural events raise tensions? Considering that the Miami Beach Police Department has already had its fair share of controversy this year (drunk ATV cops, Urban Beach week, etc.), and that the one percenters who consider themselves art aficionados may also be slightly more sympathetic to the cause than some of their less-cultured economic peers we hope that whatever protest that may or may not happen remains peaceful.
