The Chalktrail is an inexpensive bike add-on that allows artsy boys and girls to draw pretty patterns while they ride. It also doubles (perhaps unintentionally) as a low-tech GPS device to keep track of your child's. every. move.
Chalktrail inventor Scott Baumann, of Bellingham, Washington, says he got the idea for Chalktrail (a runaway success of a Kickstarter project, if you must know) while watching his children ride bikes and...play with chalk.
While not yet available for purchase, a deal is in the works with a major toy company, and Baumann is hopeful we'll see Chalktrail on toy-store shelves in time for the holidays.[Gizmag]

NORTH LIBERTY — A final look at the Iowa players in the Prime Time League:
Best player in the league: BACTRIM FOR SALE, Matt Gatens had another solid summer, Melsahn Basabe looked like a player ready to have a great season if he can play consistently at both ends of the court.
But the best player in the league this summer was Devyn Marble.
Marble averaged a league-high 27 points per game, doses BACTRIM work. After BACTRIM, The sophomore-to-be looks stronger, and it is clear the experience he gained last season is going to pay off, BACTRIM use. Buy cheap BACTRIM, The best thing for Marble is to not play too much backup point guard, but given the Hawkeyes' current situation, fast shipping BACTRIM, Order BACTRIM from mexican pharmacy, that probably isn't going to happen. Still, BACTRIM gel, ointment, cream, pill, spray, continuous-release, extended-release, Cheap BACTRIM, there are ways to make Marble an impact scorer even when he's running the offense, and coach Fran McCaffery will find those, BACTRIM natural.
Most improved player: Has to be Eric May, BACTRIM FOR SALE. Get BACTRIM, May lost the shell-shocked look he had in the final weeks of last season. Heading into his junior season, BACTRIM without a prescription, Online buy BACTRIM without a prescription, it appears the forward has regained his confidence.

Men's Lacrosse stays perfect with home victory
March 6, 2012 | Lynchburg, VA
Frigid temperatures, fog, rain and Reinhardt University could not stop Liberty University men's lacrosse team Friday night as the Flames trounced the Eagles 20-11.
"Tonight was an opportunity for us to showcase what we have been working on," head coach Kyle McQuillan said. "We got to try a lot of different things and see what kind of depth we have as a team."
The Flames attacked mainly on isolation plays rather than the traditional pass and move style offense.
"We have a lot of players with very good stick skills, and I will take any of our guys in a one-on-one battle," McQuillan said.
Sophomores Derek Haywood and Andrew Walter led the way for the Flames.
Walter tallied three goals and four assists while Haywood added four goals and one assist.
Haywood had a little extra motivation to do well, as some of his family were in the bleachers to watch him play for the first time ever.
"(My family) came down all the way from Pittsburgh to see me play, and I am really happy I was able to put on a show for them tonight," Haywood said.
Haywood caused fits for Reinhardt's defense all night as he repeatedly slashed right down the heart of the Eagles' defense.
"We wanted to take our guys one-on-one and force the defense to slide over and leave guys open so we could dish it off but they did not do that, so I just took it myself and was able to score a few," Haywood said.
Walter fooled the Reinhardt defenders with pump-fakes and was able to free himself up for shots.
"We moved the ball well today," Walter said. "We had really good progression from defense to offense, which was able to get me isolated out wide."
The highlight of the night came with 4:29 left in the first quarter when sophomore Kurt Tobias passed the ball to Walter, who shot it between his legs with his back to goal, to put the Flames up 5-2.
The Flames were without one of their main faceoff guys, freshman Will Perkins, because of ROTC commitments. Despite Perkins' absence, Liberty was able to win the majority of the face-offs and keep the ball on their attacking end, limiting Reinhardt's opportunities to attack.
Liberty never trailed in the game and was able to make sure that the outcome was never in doubt.
"It was big for us to show ourselves that we can bury teams and not let up," Haywood said. "Last year we would get big leads then allow the other team to get back in the game, but not tonight."
Sophomore Daniel Forbes also chipped in for the Flames with four goals, while fellow sophomores Miguel Lozada and Kurt Tobias each had two goals, respectively.
Sophomore net minder Asa Keimig held his own with nine saves.
The Flames are set to play four games in four consecutive days over spring break before returning home March 16 to square off against the Savannah College of Art and Design.

The Minority Action Plan (MAP) program sponsored by the Yale Center for Excellence in Genome Sciences has elements in K-12 education and in undergraduate and graduate research programs. The goal is to expose students to concepts, courses and research activities that will interest and excite them to pursue a career in research science and genomics in particular. The two anchoring programs are STARS and S.C.H.O.L.A.R. with other K-12 activities being developed and interspersed throughout the year. Students are largely underrepresented minorities in the sciences from the New Haven community for K-12. STARS students come from a variety places as Yale undergraduate recruits.
The STARS (Science, Technology and Research Scholars) Program provides first year students through seniors with an integrated experience in research, course-based study and development of mentorship skills. STARS identifies and supports traditionally underrepresented students, including racial/ethnic minorities, women and physically challenged students, in any of Yale's natural sciences and engineering majors.
Since its inception in 1995, STARS has been providing academic enrichment and research opportunities for first year students and sophomores. The program has now expanded to include juniors and seniors in STARS II and to increase the number of STARS I summer fellows. More than 100 students each year participate in the academic year and summer STARS programs.
STARS I is composed of two major components: a term-time program and a summer program. The core of the STARS I academic year program is a series of study group workshops that mirror the first and second year courses in Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics, and Computer Science. Faculty advisors and a graduate student from each department supervise the workshops. Each workshop also has an undergraduate facilitator who has previously taken the same course; undergraduate facilitators receive training and a stipend to support the development of mentorship skills. During the summer, STARS I provides support for participation of first and second year students in research in the laboratory of a Yale faculty member.
The STARS II program provides an intensive research experience for juniors and seniors. During the academic year, STARS II scholars receive a stipend to support up to 10 hours a week of research in the laboratory of a faculty mentor. In the summer, the program provides stipend support for students to continue their research for eight weeks. Each spring, STARS II scholars present their research to student and faculty STARS program participants at the STARS II Symposium.
STARS students enjoy a number of structured enrichment activities during term-time. Special dinners bring together scientists in various disciplines from Yale and other schools, graduate and medical school panels provide guidance in career development, and scholars are encouraged to attend national and regional science conferences.
The STARS Program is made possible through the generous support of the Howard Hughes Medical Institute and Boehringer Ingelheim (BI) Pharmaceuticals. For further information about the STARS Program, please contact the Program Directors: Dean Rosalinda Garcia (E-mail), or at (203) 432-2913, or Dr. Kenneth Nelson (E-mail), or at (203) 432-5013.
The Yale University S.C.H.O.L.A.R. Program is a three-week summer science residential program for Hill Regional Career High School students entering grades 10 through 12. Sixty-five students stay Sunday through Thursday on the Yale University campus and study in Yale's libraries and laboratories.
In 1996 Hill Regional Career High School and Yale University's Schools of Medicine and Nursing signed an educational partnership. The partnership recognized the University's leading role in life science research and is a natural extension of Yale's own educational mission. It pledged to make the resources of the University available to the faculty and students of the High School.
Over the years faculty members from New Haven High Schools and Yale University have worked together to revise and realign the science courses, create new course offerings and internships, and design and implement S.C.H.O.L.A.R.
The participating high school sophomores are introduced to genetics and developmental cell biology concepts, while juniors, many of whom are at Yale for their second summer, study chemistry using Yale's new 250-gallon salt-water tank. Seniors perfect their laboratory skills in the morning and work on college applications each afternoon. Students work in small study groups of seven students per teacher.
Faculty from Yale University and the New Haven Public Schools jointly staff the program. All courses use Problem Based Learning (PBL) instructional methods. Program activities include:

Graduate and Undergraduate students may apply for a job in S.C.H.O.L.A.R.
Student and Teacher Programs
Throughout the year CEGS sponsors many tours, lab activities, and faculty and staff visits to New Haven Schools to expose students of all ages to research concepts and information about genomics and other sciences.
Teacher Programs
CEGS has recently established teacher workshops focused on areas of genomics and proteomics research. We offer one weekend workshop each semester and a weeklong workshop in summers. Teachers get exposed to faculty research at Yale, interact with Yale personnel to improve curriculum content, and carry out labs that they can take back to their students. In light of this, CEGS has allowed us to establish a set of loaner lab equipment that will aid schools with limited resources in carrying out labs that otherwise would not be available to them.
Research and Mentoring Opportunities
CEGS is now affiliated with some programs on the Yale campus that provide a continuum of science activities after school. This brings students to the CEGS facilities on a consistent basis. With CEGS support, high school juniors and seniors will be able to take part in research that is going on in faculty labs. This module is under development now and will start summer 2007 with S.C.H.O.L.A.R students and then be part of an after school program throughout the school year. This module will also integrate with the teacher workshops. The goal is to get students prepared for college and to interest them in research careers. Contact: email@example.com
Evolutions, sponsored by the Yale Peabody Museum, is an after school program for students from the New Haven Schools who are interested in science, serious about school, and headed to college. At present, students are involved in a variety of career exploration activities. CEGS will be offering the additional opportunity for these students to get involved in an on-going research project in sponsoring faculty labs. The goal of this program is to get students competitive for college, explore careers, and now to have the chance to get involved in a hands-on research project.
Youth Together
Youth Together is a mentoring/tutoring program that pairs Yale undergrads with participating New Haven Wilbur Cross junior and senior students. This year's theme has been "thinking about the future." Other units on college admissions, essay writing, and career profiles have been offered in this program that has run through Yale for almost 50 years now. Through tours of CEGS facilities and the chance to get involved in a research project in a lab, students can get excited about exploring careers in research.
Minorities in Medicine Movement (MMM)
This is a new program spearheaded by Yale minority premed students. It is also a mentoring program for New Haven high school students with commitment. CEGS has helped to get this started and will work with teams to exposes them to medicine and research careers. Workshops, presentations, panel discussions, field trips and hands-on research experience through CEGS labs give students a focus and continual mentoring throughout the year in after school activities.

Piercing the Veil of Anonymous Bloggers
I'm delighted to be guest-blogging at Concurring Opinions, and thanks to the crew here for the invitation! I regularly blog to a much smaller audience at Info/Law (and will cross-post most of these guest appearances over there), but it will be fun to discuss a somewhat wider variety of topics here. That said, it turns out my first entry is at the heart of information regulation.
Brian Leiter notes this news story about a South Korean law which has just taken effect, requiring large web sites to obtain real names and the equivalent of Social Security numbers from everyone who posts content. He compares this approach to that taken in the US where, he says, "there exist only private remedies against Internet sociopaths and misogynistic freaks who hide behind anonymity. I suppose time will tell which is the better approach."
Personally, I don't need to wait for the passage of time to criticize the South Korean initiative (which has been under discussion there for some four years). Obviously, this law arises in a cultural context very different from our own, which I believe explains a good deal of the difference in approach. And it may not even be as different as it first appears. But there are principled reasons, distinct from cultural ones, to oppose a "show me your papers" internet.
First and foremost, it should be no surprise that China reportedly is looking at a similar model — as a technique to curb dissent, not just cyberbullying. (If you have seen the film The Lives of Others, pictured above — and you really should see it — you will remember how it portrayed East Germany registering typewriters.) The ability to remain anonymous protects unpopular speakers who might otherwise be unable to spread their ideas. In some countries, anonymous bloggers risk life and limb. Despite massive internet filtering by governments, blogging still provides dissidents a powerful tool. Even in more democratic countries, whistleblowers, political outsiders, and unhappy employees use anonymous blogging to avoid retribution. An outright ban on anonymity will curtail such often-useful speech.
Second, I am pretty confident a law like South Korea's would be unconstitutional here. There is a clear right to anonymous speech under McIntyre v. Ohio Elections Commission. An influential district court case from 1997 (the web's early days) relied on McIntyre to strike down as overbroad a Georgia law banning pseudonymous internet communications. (This is one of many cases the ACLU has brought in defense of internet anonymity.)
Finally, there are many technical methods to increase the chances of remaining anonymous online, such as using proxy servers or onion routing. (Ethan Zuckerman summarizes them in this guide aimed at dissidents and published by Reporters Without Borders). A demand for a real name and ID number makes these tactics somewhat harder to use, but certainly not impossible for a determined anonymity-seeker. The result: while most of us who follow the rules would lose the realistic capacity to stay anonymous online, the truly dedicated cyberbully, slanderer, harasser, or spammer can still remain in the shadows. Indeed, it's not clear to me that a legal requirement to offer a (phony) name and ID number adds any real teeth against those with the knowledge and incentive to remain anonymous.
Without question, many in the US abuse online anonymity. They can cause real harm. So, are we just stuck with these abuses as the price we pay for free speech? Not entirely. There are more modest remedies available, and they are pretty much in place already. For one thing, individual sites are free to allow more or less anonymity as they see fit. Many ban anonymous comments. Many others, if they allow screen names or pseudonyms, still require registration. Lots of sites also guard against the prevalence of "Internet sociopaths and misogynistic freaks" by moderating their comments.
More fundamentally, in situations where a site does not choose to do any of the above, there is the John Doe subpoena. A complaint that states a reasonable claim against John Doe defendants for unlawful online speech usually will result in a judicial order that a web site or ISP provide available information about the speaker. Generally that information will include at least an IP address, and often the full name and postal address. Such data has been plenty for the recording industry and the government to identify defendants and proceed against them. I predict a similar outcome in the AutoAdmit case. (Indeed, Concurring Opinions' own Frank Pasquale recently found his name in use as a pseudonym for a blogger running a gripe site critical of a health care company; in that case the court has allowed the plaintiff to "pierce the pseudonymous veil" and discover the blogger's identity.) We may need some better procedures for discerning when such "piercing" on the basis of a complaint is appropriate, but I believe this doctrine will develop, just as it did in "corporate veil" cases. In that sense, we are evolving toward a model that allows pseudonymity, but rarely true anonymity.
That may not be so different from South Korea's approach in most cases. As I understand the new law there, large web sites must collect the information, but need not turn it over unless the victims sue. Except for a somewhat stronger mandate for collecting information, that is pretty similar to the John Doe subpoena. And since such subpoenas appear to have proven adequate in the US to identify speakers in most cases, this may not be as important in the real world as it first appears. That said, to the extent there are differences, leaving some breathing room for anonymity is a better fit with our free speech traditions.

RSA Animate - The Empathic Civilisation
"Political adviser and social and ethical prophet Jeremy Rifkin investigates the evolution of empathy and the profound ways that it has shaped our development and our society."
Jeremy Rifkin describes how humans evolved from empathy to blood-ties, to empathy with religious ties, to empathy with national ties, to empathy for the human race with the biosphere. We have the capacity to empathize with other races, other cultures, other creatures. We evolve into "homo impathicus".
No more racism, no anti-feminism, no religionism, no nationalism, no homophobia and no more dominionism.

This rings true to me. Thanks, Joan.
Good. He makes sense to me, too.
It's good to see that we animals are soft-wired for empathy across all our man-made boundaries. It gives me hope that future generations and societies may naturally develop to view our existence and connection to each other with a more global and unifying perspective. I do, however, unfortunately see this as a continuous uphill battle, as selfishness and exclusivity are powerful behaviors to overcome.
Yes, a continuous battle. The good news, we have what it takes to stand and speak our piece and support each other. I like your gentleness and your ways of writing things.
I've only become a more outspoken person in recent years, Joan. I now wish I had been more assertive when I was a young adult, but I guess it just wasn't a part of my natural personality. I'm not an abrasive person, but as I've grown older, wisdom, experience and the desire to affect change have made me much more vocal about issues I've always cared about: equality, kindness, empathy, fairness, etc.
Thanks for the kind words. You've been an inspiration to me on many occasions.
Technology can help elicit and extend our empathy. I discovered this article a few days ago:
Virtual Superpowers Encourage Real-World Empathy (ScienceDaily)
If you give people superpowers, will they use those abilities for good?
Researchers at Stanford recently investigated the subject by giving people the ability of Superman-like flight in the university's Virtual Human Interaction Laboratory (VHIL). While several studies have shown that playing violent videogames can encourage aggressive behavior, the new research suggests that games could be designed to train people to be more empathetic in the real world.
One at a time, 30 men and 30 women entered the simulator and strapped on a set of goggles that transported them into a digital cityscape. A woman's voice then explained their mission: A diabetic child is stranded somewhere in the city, and you must find him and deliver an insulin injection.
With a whoosh of air, the subjects left the ground -- either controlling their flight by a series of arm motions, like Superman, or as a passenger in a helicopter. [...]
After removing the virtual reality goggles, each person then sat with an experimenter to answer a few questions about the experience. This questionnaire, however, was a ruse: During the interview, the experimenter would "accidentally" knock over a cup filled with 15 pens. [...]
The pen experiment is a standard test for gauging empathy [...]
"It's very clear that if you design games that are violent, peoples' aggressive behavior increases," Bailenson said. "If we can identify the mechanism that encourages empathy, then perhaps we can design technology and video games that people will enjoy and that will successfully promote altruistic behavior in the real world."
And speaking of anti-feminism, the misogynistic, non-empathic definition of "Atheism Plus" on Urban Dictionary has thousands more thumbs up than thumbs down; vice versa for the more positive definition.
It says something when this:
...frauds... their goal is to subvert atheism with the religion of feminist indoctrination and bitch about non existent misogyny... nothing more than dogmatic feminists trying to commandeer the atheist movement...
seems overwhelmingly more popular than this:
...dedicated to promoting social justice along with skepticism and critical thinking... We are... Atheists PLUS we care about social justice, Atheists PLUS we support women's rights, Atheists PLUS we protest racism...
True, those who go to that page to vote are a self-selected sample! (And ballot box stuffing can't be ruled out.)
There's a discussion here on A/N: Urban Dictionary battle over Atheism+

I am utterly utterly obsessed with depotting eyeshadows and getting them altogether in one place (an example – however I have changed my view on Unii palettes, read on!) so when I saw the new style MAC empty palettes with the clear lids I knew i had to have them.
I didn't actually realise how many MAC eyeshadows I had collected over the years – I thought I had about 10 because I don't buy MAC that often! In fact I had enough to fill up nearly 2 palettes (I bought a few more to finish the sets because I am also that kind of person who doesn't like gaps in my palettes)…anyway…
These palettes were out of stock for a good 2 months!
These cost £14 each and I eventually found them online (I couldn't get them on counter either). They are thicker than the old style palettes, have a clear lid and are smaller but chunkier than the originals. I prefer them though, I like the feel of these sturdy palettes….so what did I put in them?
Before that here are the palettes – they come with a protective cover you can peel off (good) but finger marks to leave a greasy stain whereas the old ones in smooth plastic were good for avoiding that.
These palettes can be purchased with inserts that hold 15 colours – this makes them more secure and neater too, however I wanted these without the insert so I could fit more in. The base is magnetic so you don't NEED to have the insert to hold the eyeshadow pans in.
This is where the eyeshadows were living – in my new UNII palettes – these new style ones are disappointing compared to the original I got. The base is a very very weak magnet, so even the slightest tap made the eyeshadows dislodge. Extremely annoying which is why I started looking for an alternative.
Here is the first palette; my neutrals! Without an insert these palettes can hold 24 eyeshadows exactly.
And again with the names:
Here are the swatches, top 2 rows:
MAC eyeshadows have been written about time and time again and I am not sure there is much I can add, although as a non MAC expert here is my take on the colours!
Shroom – A light beige with a bit of shimmer, mine is a bit gritty
Brule – Nice base matte beige colour
Retrospeck – Very shimmery pale shade, doesn't show up that well on my skintone
Ricepaper – New purchase, a warm neutral beige peach
Bamboo – A warm neutral nutty soft brown, like this for the crease
Soba – Another neutral crease shade for me but on the browner side than bamboo and not as warm
Woodwinked – Really lovely soft metallic medium mushroom browny shade
Honeylust – Got this after my wedding trial, quite a lot of fall out but it's ok a glittery gold
Amberlights – Really rich golden bronze, love
Bronze – Bronze! Decent texture not amazing though, I think there are better bronzes
Mythology – Pinked bronze, quite glittery but the texture is ok
Romp – Similar to bronze I think a bit more gold to it?
I have an issue with bronzes and golds I think! I do love them!
Row 3 and 4 (I know orange isn't very neutral!):
Orange – Really rich pigmented bold matte orange, LOVE
Copperplate – New purchase, love this shade, a neutral grey slate colour right up my street
Satin Taupe – Everyone knows this, it's a really lovely shimmery taupe
Embark – Warm brown, very very rich and pigmented, almost a bit of burgundy in there
Brown Down – Matte brown, warm so perhaps not for everyone but very pigmented again
Twinks – Almost a purply-brown with shimmer
Club – Another famous one, brown blue, love. It's a bit ugly on me but I don't care, I love the duality of it
Brun – New purchase, a matte neutral cool deep brown, good brow shade, and liner shade
Smut – A sooty colour with some shimmer
Nehru – Soft grey black, bit of blue in there?
Black Tied – Black with silver glitter
Carbon – Black, matte, deceptively unpigmented!
Here is my 'brights' palette:
Again with the names:
My brights palette is a mixture of blue, green and purple – I love all of these types of colours.
Gesso – Matte white – I must've bought this with a look in mind but it's not one I use much now!
Vex – Lovely greyish highlight shade with bits of pink, green etc etc – a really interesting colour
Eletra – Shimmery silver
Tilt – A medium denim blue, don't even remember buying this
Steamy – A lighter denim blue
Aquadisiac – A rich bright sea blue, like!
Blue Calm – I think this is LE, a really rich peacock blue – love
Deep Truth – A deep rich navy metallic blue
Plumage – Dark dark blue
Sunny – Disappointing lime, matte, not very pigmented
Sour Lemon – Also a lime, better than sunny but not amazing
Bio Green – A greeny lime which is quite funky but not mad pigmented
Lucky Green – A shimmery pretty leafy green
Swimming – Another bright gold green
Humid -A rich metallic darkened emerald green, nice texture
Greensmoke – Probably my favourite of all of them, a really lovely olive grey green
Sumptuous Olive – A new purchase, a brown old gold green, love this
Pink Venus – I have a thing for pink eyeshadows, this is medium pigmented with glitter
Creme De Violet – Medium violet purple, not that soft
Stars 'n' Rockets – Purple with a bluish duo chrome finish, not as keen on this one
Trax – A medium purple with gold glitter, a favourite of mine
Indian Ink – A pro shade, a matte true eggplant colour, very pigmented
Beauty Marked – A rich dark black with purple shimmer, this photo doesn't do it justice.
Shadowy Lady – A deep matte aubergine purple good for lining or smoky looks.
Of all the colour groups, the greens are the nicest (from Lucky green to Sumptuous Olive), and the weakest…perhaps the neutrals although, they do have a job to do!
So now that I have filled my palettes…I have to make sure I don't get any more!
Do you have any MAC favourites to tell me about?

ICWA and Military Families
I want to thank Solangel for having me here at the blog for the month of May. I've enjoyed writing posts about our work at the Indigenous Law and Policy Center.
Yesterday I was part of a roundtable discussion at Law and Society with a number of Indian law scholars who all talked for about 10 minutes on their current projects. The eight projects covered everything from the oil spill clean up process to ongoing treaty rights cases to the effect of extractive industry development on human trafficking. All of them were grounded in specific needs for tribes and tribal attorneys. It was an impressive panel.
I spoke about my latest writing project, the intersection of the Indian Child Welfare Act and military families. In Adoptive Couple v. Baby Girl, the Supreme Court based much of its discussion on the biological father's "abandonment" of his child. Nowhere in the opinion did the Court mention the father's military service and his year-long deployment to Iraq.
The law that prevented the adoption from moving forward during the father's deployment, the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act, was amended in 2008 to include any child custody proceeding in the cases that could be stayed when a servicemember cannot be present at the court hearings. However, during the time the father was deployed, the baby stayed with the potential adoptive couple. In a family law situation, the length of a child's placement receives increasing weight the longer the placement. While the South Carolina courts found that the child should be placed back with her father under the Indian Child Welfare Act, there was reluctance to do it based on the length of time the potential adoptive couple had had the baby. Cases involving service members need to be stayed, but the stay does not contemplate the ramifications on a family law case like Adoptive Couple.
Native people serve at a proportionally higher rate than other groups. In the case of active duty service members, they have the possibility of having to ask a state court to enforce not one relatively unknown federal statute, but two. Investigating how these play out in the case law, and also how the active efforts to preserve the Indian family (as required by ICWA) can be defined include specific services for Native veteran parents are two of the areas I'm working on this summer.

I have recently read a book by Mustafa Akyol titled "Islam without extremes", which is trying to answer the great mystery in Islam. The author quotes David Forte who makes the following statement:
There is a great mystery in Islam. Islam should have been the first civilisation to have abandoned slavery; it was the last.Islam should have been the first to establish complete religious liberty; today, non-muslims siffer egregerious persecution in Muslim lands. Islam should have been the first to establish social equality for women. Instead, women who stray outside the family's code of behavious are murdered with impunity. Islam should have been the foremost civilisation to observe humanitarian laws of war, but its empires have been no different from others; some claim they have been worse.
The author then goes about discussing this paradox, first starting with what went right - the early Islamic period followed by what went wrong.
The first thing to get out of the way is that this is not a text book - it is a person's opinion and analysis of the past and rpesent and it should be taken as that.
The book is divided into three parts, the first is early Muslim history starting in the times of the prophet and moving forward. The author seems to be a major fan of the mutazilite school of thought and sees their presence in the early Muslim history where they presented rational and liberal arguments as being important to the early Muslim society.
The book then moves forward at how the early muslim dynasties supported one or another group of Muslims - the Ummayad caliphate had a major problem with legitimacy in the eyes of the people so they favoured another school which did not consider free will as highly important and said "if God had not wanted the Ummayaads to rule, they wouldn't be, but the very fact that they are in power proves their legitimacy as they are there by God's will."
In a similar way, other dynasties also supported or opposed various schools of thought and law, but over time the libertarian and rational schools started to "lose" as they generally would be opposing the ruling elite.
Of the 4 schools of fiqh, the author mentions that he considers Imam Abu Hanifa the most rational and almost goes to the extent of suggesting that he would ignore hadith and not consider them too important, which seems strange to me.
He continues that it was Imam Shaf'i who gave ahadith greater prominence in rule making and that methodology to a greater or lesser extent was eventually taken up by all the schools or influenced their behaviours.
A question that had been posed on tribune by another person who read the opening chapter was "does the author reject hadith outright?" as the opening chapter seemed to indicate the liberty expressed in the qur'an and then contrasted with the strictness in a specific hadith.
The answer to this question is "no" but with the caveat that while he considers the hadith important for matters of morality, he does think that the amount of fabricated ahadith and their lack of contextualisation require them to be analysed. He also mentions how in Islamic history due to the number of fabrications it was possible to find a hadith to support any view that anyone had.
From the 4 Imam's the author is pretty disparaging of Imam Ahmad Ibn Hanbal, who's views he considered least rationalist and very rejecting of opposing views where his followers would generally avoid transacting with other muslims to avoid "corruption" and "pollution" of themselves, something he find similar to modern day extremist phenomenons.
He goes on to mention how he considers the famout hadith relating to bid'ah to have been fabricated in this later time period, but does not provide his justification for it.
Mustafa Akyol charts the pretty early Muslim world which he considered to be more libertarian minded (and also less sexist), but charts how the ideas of liberty and tolerance (and trade) over time gave way to other ideas that were less liberal, and less tolerant of trade (the elite found it easier to tax land compared to trade and so after about the third century, the tax system gradually morphed to favour agricultural society instead of a business oriented one, something that was only confronted in the 19th century, but the return to classical reforms was a little too late).
From here, Mustafa Akyol jumps to the later part of the ottoman empire and the early part of the Turkish state.
He contrasts how muslim intellectuals of the late 19th century ad the early 20th century were almost unanimously liberal, while the secular forces of the turkish state found at the fall of the ottoman empire often were not - and that this trend continued in turkey even after the fall of the Ottoman empire, which was unique compared to other places because the author believed that because (eastern) Turkey had not been occupied by western powers, the people there did not need to resist the western world and all it stood for - even if the ideas were initially from Islamdom.
It was interesting to read how the attempt of reforms in the late ottoman period giving equal rights was resisted by the christian clergy who wanted none of it. (and how previously they had been greateful for the Ottoman empire which was tolerant of them unlike many european states).
The author contended that many reforms were not completed or failed mainly because the ottoman empire in the late 19th century was weak and suffered great existential threats.
The author mentioned the attempts at codifying existing shariah laws into one book in order to simlify things - something called the "mecelle" (does not return any google search results), something that remained law in many places, including Israel until the 1980's.
The final section chapters is based on modern problems that Muslims face and discusses his solutions to them, covering topics such as the Khilafah - according to him not needed, the state of Madinah was secular. Furhter he considers the trend to try and force a "religious theocracy" as a knee jerk reaction to the western domination of the past century where the proponents are often arguing for things that were never there in the past - he mentions how a certain group in the UK is calling for the imposition of shariah in the UK and eg the banning of alcohol for all people - something that has never happened in the Muslim world.
A further concern of the author is how proponents of such regimes favour systems that are not religious, but material and that the ultra enforcement of the rules forces people into the underground. He mentions in his support on the one hand that a prayer prayed without force is more likely to be from the heart than one to keep up appearances (somehting which is criticised in the quran to the level that hypocrisy is seen as worse than disbelief). Secondly he mentions how the ultra enforcement of segregation has resulted in a phenomena of lesbianism.
The author mentions how many Muslims are able to be more practising Muslim in western countries that Islamic ones.
The author also defends the right of people to sin as without this, the world is no longer a place where people are tested, which is something from life and mentions how the quranic verses referring to the hajj mention that the people must not hunt - and that they will be tested on their journeys even where the catch would be a hands length or so away.
All in all, I think it is an interesting read.
"Islam without extremes" should now be available from all good bookshops.

UPDATE: Please check out my "BEAUTY" page for an updated list of gluten-free cosmetics, skin care and more! If you have any suggestions please leave a comment below or send me an email at firstname.lastname@example.com – Jenny
I have been on the hunt for the past month for some new gluten free cosmetics and I never thought it would be so difficult to get an answer. It started with going to the store to hopefully find something…anything but sadly it didn't work out that way. Most of the brand name cosmetics that you find in the stores have a laundry list of ingredients in them. Who has the time to sit there and read all of these ingredients, plus have the ability to know all the technical names of ingredients that contain or are derived from gluten/wheat? I surely do not so instead I decided I would start e-mailing and calling companies instead.
I started by looking at their websites only to find that just one company had the information listed on their website…just one (I sent them and e-mail just to double check)! All the others I had to fill out the "contact us" forms online. Some responded with the ingredients they use that contain gluten and wheat, however they would not list which products were free of them. And again I ask, who has the time to read all the ingredients, especially in small print….not me. Finally only two places got back to me. Neutrogena and Bare Escentuals.
It took several days and a phone call later to hear back from Neutrogena, but bottom line, they responded and yes they have GF products!!! Bare Escentuals responded in less than a half hour. Below are the responses from both companies. I think I will start out with trying the Neutorgena products because: 1) they are a bit less money and 2) they are pretty much everywhere. Bare Escentuals look great but a bit out of my price range for now.
As for skin care I currently use Burt's Bees and LOVE it. I think for now I will stick with them, however on the Neutrogena list they have a good number of options for you in this area also.

Lawyers for accused Boston bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev said prison restrictions on the suspect were so tight they violate his civil rights and the judge conceded they may interfere with Tsarnaev's ability to defend himself in court.
But prosecutors argued that the tough restrictions on Tsarnaev were necessary because Tsarnaev's communication with people other than his lawyers "could result in death or serious bodily harm."
"Tsarnaev's desire to inspire others to commit acts of terrorism is evident in the message he wrote in pen on the inside of the boat,'' the government wrote in its opposition to lift prison restrictions. "This was a clarion call to radical militants."
Tsarnaev was captured after being wounded while hiding in a boat. According to a government brief, he wrote on the inside of the boat "The U.S. government is killing our innocent civilians. As a Muslim I can't stand to see such evil go unpunished, we Muslims are one body, you hurt one, you hurt us all..."
Tsarnaev will face the death penalty if convicted in the sweeping terrorism and murder charges he is facing, federal prosecutors said in court today.
The death penalty recommendation will be made by U.S. Attorney Carmen Ortiz, but Attorney General Eric Holder will ultimately determine whether Tsarnaev could face capital punishment. U.S. District Court Justice George O'Toole ruled from the bench that the government must present its decision by Jan. 31.
That ruling came during a hearing to address complaints from Tsarnaev's defense team that restrictions imposed on him at the Fort Devens federal prison facility where he is being held impedes his civil right to a fair trial.
The prison restrict visits to immediate family and attorneys and ban him from praying with other prisoners, prayer and television.
The American Civil Liberties Union filed a memorandum with the court calling Tsarnaev's jailhouse conditions "torture," but O'Toole ordered that the ACLU memo expunged from the federal court record.
Nevertheless, O'Toole was sympathetic to Tsarnaev's attorneys' assertions that the prison restrictions could violate the accused terrorist's civil rights. Tsarnaev, who is originally from Dagestan, became a U.S. citizen on Sept. 11, 2012.
"I agree enough with the defendant. It may concern adequate preparation for the case,'' O'Toole said from the bench, adding that he was not concerned whether the restrictions "are annoying, but whether they are inhibiting."
The defense also argued that the government has refused to cooperate with discovery requests for evidence critical to their client.
Tsarnaev, 19, is a former UMass-Dartmouth student. His older brother, Tamerlan Tsarnaev, 26, was killed during a firefight with police in Watertown, Mass., just days after the brothers allegedly dropped two pressure-cooker bombs along the finish line of the Boston Marathon, killing three – including an 8-year-old boy – and wounding at least 260 others.
The government, Tsarnaev attorney Miriam Conrad argued, has told the defense team: "We'll decided what to disclose and when to disclose it."
"The time is now,'' Conrad told the court.
Specifically, the defense team wants information about a triple homicide in Waltham, Mass., committed on the 10 year anniversary of the Sept. 11 terror attacks that both Tsarnaev brothers have been implicated in, Conrad said.
No one has been charged in that triple murder.

|Does anyone remember "Vigilante"?
We had that one burglary in conjunction with the earthquake when all the predators and bottom feeder came out to play, but after that basically everyone signed up for private security companies (which I grudgingly agreed to as I didn't want to end up as the only unprotected house, ripe for the taking). Also, a lot of the women in the neighbourhood are housewives with small kids, so the area is quite lively on weekdays as well. The only time that I could image burglars striking would be the New Year's vacation when many houses stand empty as people leave Tokyo to be with their relatives, but that's only once a year and no burglaries were reported this time.
Despite this, our neighbourhood "council" decided to make the area even safer and initiate our own little neighbourhood vigilante squad to take turns patrolling the area. As exited I'm about joining a vigilante squad (Note to self; I need to make sure I arm myself with some menacing toy before patrolling) it feels like a completely meaningless and annoying endeavour to begin with, and the other day the chairman came around to check that the Salaryman family were up to do their part for the team. As I try to keep friendly with the neighbourhood I kept the Salaryman family's thoughts about this to myself and nodded and agreed that we'll do our part with pride.
But as he told me the details of our duty I had trouble to not burst out laughing at the stupidity and futility of it all... Apparently, to not make thing inconvenient and make sure that everyone can participate, the "patrol" hours were set to once a day at noon, consisting of walking the maybe 50 meters of roads connecting our community to the main road and see if there's anything " suspicious" going on. Then followed by one "late" night shift once a week, but put at 5 pm to not make it too inconvenient and dark to see properly. Also, it will be cancelled on holidays as many people are away and can't be expected to perform their patrolling duties.
I wonder if any prospective burglars will show the same consideration when planning the next big heist of maybe a wide screen TV, blue ray players and some minor jewelry that a break in in our area can yield them? Will they consider that we're too convenient to not patrol during the actual hours when the burglars are roaming about?
But hey, I'll keep the peace, take toddler Sunshine with me out to patrol and spend 5 minutes walking around, tick off "nothing suspicious" one Sunday a year, but somehow do not feel one bit more secure than before the vigilante squad... If I'm going to do something completely meaningless, at least it's nicer to do it at convenient times.

TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) – Gov. Sam Brownback says Kansas residents want their legislators to get tax policy right and are willing to accept the annual session going longer than anticipated.
The Republican governor said in a statement Friday that it's challenging for lawmakers to enact policies for improving the economy while balancing the state budget.
Republicans in the GOP-controlled Legislature are deadlocked on proposals to cut personal income taxes while raising new sales tax revenues to keep the budget in balance.
Both chambers have adjourned until Tuesday, guaranteeing that the legislative session will go into its 95th day.

Brownback said of Kansans, "They're interested in solutions, even if it takes some overtime."
His statement came two days after he admonished lawmakers that it was time for them to wrap up their session.

Carlos Beltran said he felt better than expected after last night's Single-A rehab game in Port St. Lucie. Beltran also said he would like to play in the Marlins series next week in Puerto Rico.
Manager Jerry Manuel waffled on the subject, first intimating it was possible then saying it was unlikely. What he didn't do was what he should have done, and slammed the door on the issue.
"No, he's not playing,'' Manuel should have said. "I can appreciate him wanting to, but we have a plan for him and that would be rushing it.''
There, now it is a closed case.
Manuel waffles all the time on a variety of issues, many of them injury related. It makes him come across as unsure and uninformed.
The last thing the Mets need is a setback with Beltran, and that's exactly what could happen if they rush him. Why is that so hard to understand? Why can't he just say it.

All I did was fill a mason jar with candy, and add some vinyl. These said, "for my Egg-cellent teacher." I originally got the idea from here. I wrapped some ribbon around the top and added a bit of scrapbook paper cut into a circle on the top.
Our teachers do so much. I feel so grateful for them! I cannot imagine teaching over-filled classrooms every day and coming home to family. I would go crazy! So I try to give them a little something when I can.
Thanks teachers for all you do. You are Egg-cellent!

We got to see just about everyone! We spent our first day there watching Federer practice with Tommy Haas, and then Rafa practice with Stan Wawrinka. As you can see, we were right up close! I don't even own a zoom lens. It was so fun!
The tennis grounds where the matches are held is really beautiful and nicely maintained, and (if you're a tennis fan) it's a great place to spend the day. In fact, we spent 3 whole days there and had a great time. That said, there aren't many vegan options available for munching. One concessions stand was selling Lara Bars for $4. Uh, no thanks! There is a restaurant called Pizzavino in Stadium Two that offers all their pizzas with Daiya cheese... but that involves going to the restaurant and missing out on courtside time.
Here's my sandwich, helping sustain me through a super fun Bopanni-Quereshi v Federer-Wawrinka doubles match. Mmmm, delicious!
The dessert is super hot, so, you'll always want to have lots of water with you. In fact, at various points around the grounds, they had Brita water filter "re-fill stations" so that you could refill your water bottle for free. I drank a TON of water.
Also, we stayed at such a great and funky spot in Palm Desert. There was a sunny courtyard with a pool and surrounded by citrus trees. Every morning the proprietors put out a huge bowl of chopped fruits and baked goods (not vegan), bread for toast (Dave's Killer Bread!), and grapefruits from their trees. Swoon. It was a pretty magical way to start the day. Just look at all those grapefruits on their tree!!
We were having so much fun at the tennis that dinner was sometimes an afterthought- and yet, we had some pretty great dinners:
Our first night out we went to LaQuinta Resort, which is where many of the players stay. We wanted to see if we'd spot any tennis celebs! (we did see a couple top 100 players). We had dinner at their "American Bistro," called Twenty6. Even though we got there *right* before closing, the service was super excellent and the server was really great about confirming that their veggie burger and avocado sauce was 100% vegan. He even read us the whole list of ingredients. I was so impressed - and that was a really yummy burger!
Our second night, we drove up to the city of Palm Springs to check out Native Foods. I've heard so much about Native Foods over the years and I really wanted to check it out. We got a serving of the polenta bites to share (super yums!), and I got the Greek Gyro Bowl. Mmmm. Now I see what all the fuss is about. All four of us got something different and we all really loved our food. That says a lot - because between the group of us we cover quite an array of dietary preferences. Now I've got my fingers crossed that Native Foods might come to Santa Cruz one day!
After watching Rafa squeeze out a late night victory over Radek Stepanek, we (and 16,000 other people) made our way out of the stadium in search of dinner. We got to Pizzavino in Palm Desert right before closing - but just in the knick of time.
I started with a baby kale salad, which was all-vegan as long as I asked for no cheese. It was super good, super fresh, and I was jazzed to have a big mountain of greens. Sometimes greens are hard to find when you're travelling.
I also got a pizza! I ordered with half-daiya and half-no cheese. I never get pizza with Daiya, and though I really like the idea, I think I actually liked the no-cheese pizza more. I thought there was a bit too much Daiya, so I removed about half of it, and enjoyed it that way. I ate the whole darn thing, so that's quite an endorsement! They also offer gluten-free crusts, and apparently Novak Djokovic had been in for dinner two nights earlier (he is famously gf).
Palm Greens in Palm Springs - we had a pretty good dinner here. Nothing bad about it for sure, but if I had that chance to do that night over, I'd probably just go back to Native Foods again. That said, they had a pretty great looking breakfast menu.
Clark's Nutrition - I'm not just plugging this spot because my awesome friend Mo works there. It's a super huge and fun locally-owned natural food store with epic selection.

Morning SpoilersIf there's news about upcoming movies and television you're not supposed to know, you'll find it in here.
Cate Blanchett has totally evil hair as a Russian agent in the new Indiana Jones movie. Can Indy hold his own against Queen Elizabeth? Will her vicious wig block her peripheral vision and give him an advantage? Find out for yourself, below the fold. We also have the first details about season five of Stargate: Atlantis. Plus: a bizarre discovery on Doctor Who, a nonsensical transformation on Torchwood, and zany drama on Smallville. Spoilers ahead!
- In season five of Stargate: Atlantis, the officious bureaucrat Woolsey (Robert Picardo from Voyager) takes over command of the expedition from Amanda Tapping's Samantha Carter. Tapping will still be a recurring character, but won't be in every episode because she's off starring in Sanctuary. Also appearing in some episodes: Tapping's SG-1 co-star Michael Shanks, and the back-from-the-dead Paul McGillion. (Thanks, RRich!) [TVGuide]
- OMG crazy Doctor Who rumor: the Doctor finds out he has a daughter, played by Georgia Moffett, the real-life daughter of fifth Doctor Peter Davison. But it turns out aliens stole his DNA and knocked some woman up with the Doctor's baby without his knowing. [GallifreyanGazette]
- And on Torchwood, supposedly Owen becomes a weevil-human hybrid, the Weevil King. Gwen gets pregnant with an alien baby. People step out of a 1920s black-and-white movie and wreak havoc. A mysterious medical facility named the Phram is saving people, but may have a sinister agenda, so Martha Jones (now part of the old United Nations Intelligence Taskforce) investigates. Oh, and there's a creepy church and a dying recluse who has something Torchwood wants. [Bad Wolf One]
- In the Valentine's Day Smallville, Clark decides he's done saving Lex's behind, after Lex gets into trouble with the amnesiac Kara's gun-toting busboy-stalker boyfriend. [Kryptonsite]
- But in that same episode, Lex gets super close to uncovering Krypton's secrets. [TVGuide]
- A visitor from the future (Brian Austin Green) tries to remember the world of 2027, while Sarah tries to explain to Charlie why she left him, on the Feb. 19 Sarah Connor Chronicles. [SpoilerGeeks]
- And here are a couple of new Indiana Jones pics, including one with Cate Blanchett. Indy looks really tired... [StarWars.com]

Jason Aldean, Lady Antebellum Have Top-Selling Albums of 2011
Nielsen and Billboard have released their 2011 Music Industry Report, and the findings are quite encouraging, especially for country music fans. With album sales up across the board for the first time in seven years and digital album sales on a surprisingly steady incline as well, Jason Aldean and Lady Antebellum released two of the top-selling records of the year.
With his high-energy 'My Kinda Party,' Aldean landed the fifth top-selling album of the year, with Lady Antebellum's 'Own the Night' sitting at No. 10.
Also earning a high placement in 2011 was Taylor Swift, who was the ninth top-selling artist of 2011. Lady Antebellum was the sixth top-selling artist, and Aldean came in at eighth, just above Swift.
Overall, country album sales dropped 1.8 percent since 2010, but digital sales of country albums went up by an impressive 27.1 percent. Topping many of the lists was Adele with her sultry soul sound and her chart-topping release '21.' The British songstress scored the top-selling record of 2011 and more than doubled Michael Buble's second place spot in the same category.
In addition to their other 2011 statistics, sales and Grammys, Lady Antebellum also finished as the biggest selling group of the year for the second year in a row, with 2.1 million album sales. And Aldean has equal reason to rejoice, as he released the No. 1 country album of the year. Though we can't predict what 2012 will bring, 2011 was an incredible year for country music.

Worried about your teenager driving a car? They can learn for free on UB's driving simulator
Release Date: July 19, 2013
BUFFALO, N.Y. – Attention parents with teenagers learning to drive.
Starting in early August and continuing indefinitely, the University at Buffalo will offer teens 10 hours of free practice in its state-of-the-art driving simulation lab.
To qualify, teens must:
- Not have driver's license (A learner's permit is OK.)
- Have reliable transportation to and from UB's North Campus
- Obtain permission from a parent or guardian.
"Unfortunately, the leading cause of death for 16- to 19-year-olds is traffic accidents," said project manager Kevin Hulme, PhD, senior research associate at the New York State Center for Engineering Design and Industrial Innovation at UB.
He added: "Programs like this can help reverse that trend, provide much-needed behind-the-wheel practice for young drivers and generate invaluable data about teenage driving habits that can help reduce moving violations, accidents and fatalities over time."
Teens will receive five, two-hour sessions that mimic driving on local roads. UB researchers, meanwhile, will collect data for future scientific reports.
Using equipment donated by Moog Inc. of East Aurora, the lab provides a safe environment for participants to learn the basics of safely handling an automobile.
It features the front end of a car mounted on a platform that moves up and down, and from side-to-side, to simulate how a car reacts to turns, changes in elevation and other road conditions. Large projection screens display street signs, pedestrians, automobiles and other elements that drivers encounter. A stereo sound system emulates noises heard inside and outside of the vehicle.
To see a video of the lab, click here: http://bit.ly/1dHy5sG.
The lab will be open on days, evenings and weekends to accommodate the schedules of those participating. It is located at 107 Furnas Hall (building No. 39 on this map: http://www.buffalo.edu/buildings/maps/NorthCampus.pdf) on UB's North Campus.
For more information or to enroll, send an email to email@example.com or call (716) 462-4836.
Note: Training offered in the driving simulation lab complements – it does not replace – traditional programs and methods that teenagers use to learn to drive.

The adult children of a former Jackson Township pastor charged with murdering his first and second wives have released a statement saying they believe he's innocent.
The adult children of a former Jackson Township pastor charged with murdering his first and second wives have released a statement saying they believe he's innocent.
Already awaiting trial on charges in the 2008 death of his second wife, Betty Jean Schirmer, in Monroe County, Arthur Schirmer, 64, was charged Friday with murdering his first wife, Jewel Schirmer, in Lebanon County in 1999.
"We dearly loved our mother, Jewel, and our step-mother, Betty," reads a statement sent Saturday to the Pocono Record by Amy Wolfgang, Julie Campbell and Micah Schirmer, the children of Arthur and Jewel Schirmer. "Words cannot express how our hearts have ached and continue to over the tragic loss of them both.
"We are deeply saddened and disappointed by the false accusations and allegations that have been waged against our father," the statement continues. "He is a compassionate and gentle man who would never harm anyone. We love and support him completely and know that he is innocent of all charges."
Arthur and Jewel Schirmer were married for 31 years, until her 1999 death at age 50 in the couple's North Lebanon Township home. Arthur Schirmer at the time was pastor at Bethany United Methodist Church in Lebanon.
He told authorities he had come home to find Jewel lying at the bottom of the basement steps and bleeding from the head, apparently having fallen. Jewel Schirmer died the next day in the hospital. The manner of her death was ruled "undetermined."
Arthur Schirmer later married Betty Jean and became pastor of Reeders United Methodist Church in Jackson Township.
Betty Jean died at age 56 from a head injury in July 2008. Schirmer told authorities he had been driving her to the hospital, after she had complained of jaw pain, when they crashed on Route 715 in Pocono Township and she hit her head on the windshield.
Police later charged Schirmer in Betty Jean's death, after which Lebanon County authorities took another look at Jewel's death, ruled it a homicide and eventually charged Schirmer on Friday.

Q I have never seen anything specific about who controls the Bay Bridge metering lights. Sometime last year the time they have come on has changed to 5:45 a.m. It wasn't a gradual change from the previous 6:20 or so and traffic that early had not changed much.
I drive daily across the span and see little rhyme or reason for the timing. Some days the lights are very slow, some days much quicker. I know the idea is to keep traffic on the west side moving freely, but the timing seems to have no reality to what happens on the other side.
If I take the San Mateo Bridge into San Francisco, it's 12 miles extra but 20 to 30 minutes faster.
So ,who decides the timing of the cycle?
Bob Weisman
Castro Valley
A Caltrans operates the metering lights and bridge officials looked at traffic patterns in mid-May and compared them to the same period last year. Overall average daily traffic westbound during the week of May 11-17 this year was up 3 percent to 131,561 from 127,739 during the week of May 12-18 last year.
But the biggest increase has been in the 5 a.m. to 6 a.m. hour. Average daily westbound traffic during this period is up almost 10 percent. This is why the metering lights are being activated earlier.
Interestingly, traffic has dropped slightly from 6 a.m. to 9 a.m.
Q Any idea what's causing the backups westbound on Highway 92 for the morning commute? It's been brutal lately. It seems that everyone has forgotten how to merge (especially 18 wheelers and commercial trucks) so there is a bottleneck right after you exit the toll gates.
Mike Richardson
A The new metering light timing plan on The Bay Bridge could be one factor, as drivers tire of backups there and scoot south to 92. The improving economy brings more traffic onto 101 at 92, and the change in schedules with school closed for the summer can change driving patterns. Some drivers say there has been a rash of accidents on Highway 92 approaching the toll plaza caused by motorists trying to change from carpool lane to the regular lanes because they were either not carpooling or did not have FasTrak.
Q Any word on ACE train service from the Tri-Valley on 49er Sunday games? What about when the game is on a Thursday (like Nov. 23) or a Monday evening?
Also my grandson will attend De La Salle High School this year. Any word if ACE will provide service for their opener at Levi Stadium on Aug. 29?
Dale Halterman
San Ramon
A ACE will run one train to all 49er home games, including the Thanksgiving game. But they do not have permission from Union Pacific to operate trains for other events at Levi's Stadium. The train will stop at The Great America station, which is a Colin Kaepernick slant pass from the stadium. For 1:05 p.m. games, the train will arrive at 11:41 and depart at 5:31 p.m. For 1:30 p.m. games, the train will arrive at 11:41 and leave at 5:50 p.m.
