China Connecting West with Singapore
“South to the channel” has a broad market prospects. From Chongqing Yangtze River shipping to the sea is 2400 km, transport time more than 14 days, if the Chongqing railway to the North Bay port is about 1450 km, reduced distance of 950 km distance, transport time is only 2 days, greatly saving distance and time cost. If you go south from Lanzhou to Singapore, than the east of the sea time to save about 5 days, land and sea transport distance by about half.
The western part of the western region is mostly east-west channel, the “south channel” from the North Bay and Nanning to the north by Guiyang, Chongqing, Chengdu, connected Lanzhou and Xi’an, will form the western region of China’s first north-south vertical Big arteries, but also to the northwest of China more than a large channel to the sea. At the same time, the “south channel” in the sea and nine ASEAN countries connected to the land and the Indochina Peninsula in seven countries connected to these countries and China to build traffic corridors also help to promote economic corridor construction.


This week’s Young Farming Champions stories from around the country
IN THE FIELD
This week Wool Young Farming Champion and social media superstar Emma Turner will be taking over our Art4Agriculture social media channels and showings us life on a sheep station in outback NSW. Emma’s continuing work on her Honours Research Project into six-monthly shearing of sheep and we’re super keen to find out exactly what’s involved. Keep an eye on our Twitter and Facebook pages this week to catch up with Emma and her beloved sheep.
Cotton YFC, farmer and agronomist Emma Ayliffe has finished shearing and lamb marking her first drop of lambs on her farm in Central West NSW.
This week Emma is working with her cotton farming clients to prepare their paddocks for planting next year’s cotton crop.
Cotton farmers are currently adding phosphorous fertiliser to the soil where it is needed, creating rows for planting and furrows for irrigation and preparing their nitrogen budgets.
Farmers predict soil temperature in the Riverina will have reached the required 14 degrees C for planting cotton in about six weeks.
You can find out how a cotton crop is grown here
And because safety is always the most important thing, Emma is also renewing her St Johns first aid certificate this week!
YFC and grain farmer Dan Fox says farmers in his region of the NSW Riverina are very grateful for the 44 mm of rain they received in June, with Dan’s family planting wheat, barley, canola and lentils for the 2018 season.
Dan is looking forward to attending the Victorian No Till Farming Conference this Thursday and Friday. Dan says it’s a great opportunity to learn from and network with other farmers who share the Fox family ethos of No Till Regenerative Farming.
YFC and grain farmer Marlee Langfield is attending the annual Innovation Generation Conference in Wagga Wagga, NSW, this week.
In far-west NSW, Wool YFC and sheep and cattle farmer Bessie Thomas is still hoping for more rain. In an average year her animals would usually eat grass growing in the paddocks but while drought conditions continue, Bessie’s family is feeding their sheep and cattle a mix of grains, seeds and hay every day. This requires driving the feed around to each watering point in every paddock and it’s a time-consuming job that doesn’t allow for much other farm work and maintenance to continue.
YFC Tim Eyes hosted students from The Lakes College at his farm. They dug for potatoes, collected fresh eggs, picked oranges from the tree and milked Joyce the dairy cow. For Tim, who has entertained children both in mainstream schools and at the Sydney Royal Easter Show, hosting the TLC students was an enjoyable and eye-opening experience. Read the full story here
OUT OF THE FIELD
Next Monday YFC Anika Molesworth is flying to Argentina! She has been invited by the Argentine Minister of Agriculture and Uruguay Minister of Agriculture to visit farms, run workshops with young farmers, and give presentations on global agricultural challenges and opportunities.

BESSEMER, AL (WBRC) - A hearing resumes Wednesday for the company wanting to buy two funeral homes which have filed for bankruptcy protection.
Prime Acquisition Group is asking the court to approve the sale of Bessemer Brown Service and Brown West Chapel.
The decision could affect the pre-purchased burial plans that hundreds of people have bought.
Prime Acquisition Group says the new company will honor those contracts made after May 1st, 2002 or any in which payments were made after that date.
That is when a new state law went into effect that regulated such plans.
For any contracts made before May 2002, the new company will offer some benefits.
The hearing resumes at nine this morning in federal bankruptcy court.

Italian coachbuilder Zagato is hard at work crafting modified machines for discerning clientele.
One client appears to want a fresh take on a Lamborghini spyder, but you'd be wrong if you think we're talking about the Huracán Spyder.
It seems Zagato is preparing a new version of the Gallardo Spyder, and we're going to speculate that the car will be unveiled at next month's 2018 Concorso d'Eleganza Ville d'Este on the shores of Lake Como in Italy.
Lamborghini 5-95 Zagato, 2014 Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este
The reason for the speculation? There's a new model listed on the Zagato website. It's called the L595 Zagato, and it shows a date of 2018 next to the listing. This model would line up with the L595 Zagato coupe unveiled in 2014, also at the Lake Como car show. This year's event runs from May 25-27, so it would make sense for a new Zagato-bodied Lamborghini to make its debut then.
The L595 coupe is built on the bones of a Gallardo LP570-4, and it would appear that a spyder is now part of this party. From the rendering on the Zagato website, you can see this new drop-top version mimics the exaggerated fenders and reworked front and rear ends of the coupe. We'll have to wait until it fully arrives in the metal to figure out what's going on, of course, but all signs point to a modified Gallardo at the moment.
We're not sure why Zagato, and its client, would choose to work with the Gallardo when the Huracán exists. While the Gallardo was an amazing machine that served up serious sales figures for the Italian automaker, the Huracán represents a massive leap forward in terms of interior refinement and overall driving performance. We guess what the client wants, the client must have.

Spring is here = Spring Cleaning.....
What could have been 1-2 hours chore of organizing my closet. I have made it into a a whole day activity.But non the less I've definitely taken eating, nap, chatting, facebook, and of course work breaks.
But going back to my organizing, I definitely need tips, advice on organizing my accessories. I have been looking into jewelry trays. The idea is to layout the necklaces in the trays, and place the trays in drawers. So when am looking for a necklace I just open the necklaces drawers and BAM! I kinda need to stop relying on my memory
They are a couple of websites that sell the trays really inexpensive. Like
How do you organize your accessories?

Quartz is a beautiful mineral made out of some of the simplest elements on earth: silicon and oxygen. Yet when their atoms combine in a tetrahedral formation, beautiful quartz crystals are formed that have been used to make jewelry and carvings since ancient times. The ancient Greeks referred to quartz as krustallos, meaning icy cold, thinking it was ice. Quartz comes in many colors and varieties with some of the more popular ones being amethyst, rose quartz, onyx, agate, and jasper.

In its World Oil Outlook (WOO) report released yesterday, the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) revised its earlier prediction upward and predicted that between 2021 and 2045, the world’s oil demand will increase by 13 million barrels per day.
However, the cartel issued a warning that the longer-term supply picture was fraught with significant uncertainty due to “significant risks to the economic outlook, high inflation, energy policy goals being challenged by energy security issues, and questions regarding a perceived shortfall in upstream investment, all coupled with persisting and new geopolitical risks.”
The analysis projects that by 2045, oil demand would have increased from 96.9 million barrels per day in 2021 to 109.8 million barrels per day.
After 2024, however, the OECD’s oil demand will begin to decline, declining by 11 million barrels per day between 2021 and 2045. For the same period, it is anticipated that non-OECD demand will rise by 23.6 million barrels per day.
In particular, OPEC anticipates a sharp slowdown in the rate of oil demand growth over the longer term, with an average annual increase of just 200,000 b/d in 2030–35 and then “a rather protracted period of plateauing” after that. It projects global demand to be 108.3 million barrels per day in 2030, 109.5 million in 2035, 109.8 million in 2040, and 109.8 million in 2045.
Long term, with the global economy emerging from the COVID-19-induced crisis, the aviation and road transportation sectors are expected to develop by greater volumes, which is principally responsible for the projected increase in oil consumption. According to the survey, China is expected to experience the highest increase in demand over the next few years, followed by India.
The non-OPEC liquids production is expected to increase to 71.4 million barrels per day (b/d) in 2027 from 63.6 million in 2021, reach a peak of 72.4 million in 2030, and then begin to fall.
Over the next five years, it is anticipated that expansion in non-OPEC production will be led by the US, Brazil, Guyana, Canada, and Norway. Brazil and Guyana “are joined by Canada, Kazakhstan, and Qatar as the key sources of non-Opec liquids supply increases” once US supply reaches its peak in the late 2020s. based on the WOO.
According to OPEC, $12.1 trillion will be needed for oil investments between 2022 and 2045, with $9.5 trillion going toward upstream, $1.6 trillion going toward middle, and $1 trillion going toward downstream.
With upwardly updated demand predictions and projected cost inflation in the short- to medium-term more than balancing the forecast period being one year shorter, this is greater than the $11.8 trillion forecast for 2021–45 in last year’s WOO.

New Student Urgent Response Team supports students in distress
The Student Urgent Response Team places a mental health nurse with security officers who are specially trained in anti-oppressive practices and trauma-informed response to give students the help, resources and support they need in times of crisis.
A new McMaster initiative to address student mental health and wellness is offering students in distress the support and tools they need to navigate crises.
The Student Urgent Response Team, created with a 2022 grant from Bell Let’s Talk, places a mental health nurse trained in crisis work with specially trained campus security personnel who respond to students in crisis on campus.
The team is extensively trained in anti-oppressive practices and trauma-informed response techniques, which can help students, especially those from equity-deserving groups, feel comfortable and supported as they navigate their options and the resources available at McMaster.
“McMaster University has always put a strong emphasis on student mental health and well-being,” says Sean Van Koughnett, associate vice-president of students and learning, and dean of students.
Beyond the initial response, the Student Urgent Response Team will follow up with the student, to make sure they receive the support they need and to connect them with campus resources that can help, says Rosanne Kent, director of the Student Wellness Centre.
“Once we know who they are, we can give them the information they need and they can choose what’s right for them.”
The centre has many mental-health resources for students, but many students are unaware of them, says student nurse Ameera Shaia.
Shaia hopes the project will help bring awareness to these resources “and enable us to support students in crisis effectively.”
Health and well-being forms the foundation for student success, Van Koughnett notes.
“We always have more work to do. The funding from Bell helps us further those efforts through the Student Urgent Response Team in supporting students and their mental health.”

Wolf vs moose: Mother fights tooth and nail to save newborn from killer's clutches in the Alaskan wilderness
These incredible pictures show the scene as a titanic life-and-death battle unfolded between a mother moose defending her calf and a ravenous pack of wolves.
The enormous moose dwarfs her attackers in this thrilling sequence of images taken in the Alaskan wilderness as they attempt to kill her newborn.
As she makes her stand in a small pond in the chilly tundra the mother fights ferociously to save her youngster from the hungry predators.
Scroll down for video
Life-and-death struggle: This mother moose charges at a wolf as she desperately tries to defend her week-old calf from becoming lunch
Surrounded: But as more members of the pack arrived, the situation became increasingly desperate for the beleaguered mother and child
Grave danger: The nervous calf hides by his mother's side as the ravenous pack of wolves enters the pond where they she is making her stand
Savage nature: The water splashes beneath her huge frame as the mother moose launches an attack on the first hungry wolf to stray too close
Fury: A wolf is caught in the tumult as the moose stamps down with her hooves, causing water to fly all around her
Attack from all sides: But even as she sees of one wolf, another slips into the waters behind her to prey on her child
Mortal combat: The wolves slink into the water as the mother and her frightened child wait for the onslaught
She uses all her strength to try and
repel the attack, charging and pounding at the carnivores with her
But despite her desperate efforts the persistence and skill of the hunting Grant Creek wolf pack was just too much and her baby was finally dragged away.
Patrick Endrews, a wildlife photographer from Alaska, watched in awe as the action unfolded before his eyes in the Denali National Park.
The 45-year old said: 'When exiting the park about 8pm, after a very slim day of photography, we stumbled upon a cow moose defending her calf from a lone wolf.
'Her success at chasing off the wolf was quickly challenged when five more of the pack showed up, and absolute organised chaos broke out as the pack strategically lunged at the one week old moose calf.
'Back-lit in a small tundra pond, the cow moose charged, stomped and splashed. Water was flying everywhere as the wolves attacked them from all angles.
'It was a real-time spectacle of nature unfolding before our eyes. The calf sought protection under the mum's belly, as she chased off the pack with her deadly hoofs.
Fury: A close-up shows just how close one of the wolves comes to being squashed beneath the moose's lethal hooves
Fearsome: Sensing that this could be her child's last moments, the desperate mother fights on all sides to try to beat off the wolves
Inevitable conclusion: Despite her bravery, however, she is unable to match the numbers and cunning of the wolf pack and they eventually start sinking their teeth into the youngster
Not giving up yet: She warns one of the predators by delivering a stout kick to its head with her rear leg
No hope left: Eventually she gives up the fight, as the pack manage to kill the week-old calf and subsequently drag him away for their dinner
'But the wolves were cunning and relentless and over time they dragged the calf away from the mother.
'It was amazing how many times, after thinking the calf was surely dead, it got back up again once the mother fended off the attack.
'Besides frantically photographing and cheering on the cow moose in her vigilant defence, the odds of survival were obviously slim, and in the end, the wolves were successful in the kill.
'It was a scene of mixed emotion, adrenalin and lots of shutter clicks. I've heard of similar predator-prey encounters from colleagues over the years, but I've never had the chance to see one myself.
'After nearly 30 years of visiting the park, I guess my turn finally emerged. The attack lasted about 10 minutes from the time the wolf pack surrounded the moose until they killed the calf and dragged it to the tundra.'

Posts Tagged ‘italy’
Damn, for a minute there it had slipped my mind but this edit just reminded me of how much of an awesome time I had at this year’s L’Eroica… Look at my face at the top of the first climb, Never after slogging my guts out have I looked so happy! Must be the wine.
Thank you Le Coq Sportif! And while on the subject I must give shouts out to Mike, Marc and Billy for without them it would not have happened.x
First, let me explain:
I bought a camera, a Canonet 28 rangefinder 12 months ago from a market in Oswestry and instantly I fell in love with it’s small size and ease of use. That week I ran a film through it and the results were O.K but something was very wrong, I had horrible vertical lines and what looked like half frames over 90% of my negatives and consequently my prints too:
I only paid £3 for it but I was still quite unhappy as I knew what this little beast of a camera was capable of, unfortunately for me those capabilities did not translate through to my pictures.
I thought maybe it was the film, so I tried another. The same results. I thought perhaps it was the lab I was using, so I tried another and yet again, the same results.
At this point I’m gutted and beginning to type ‘canonet’ into Ebay every week to try and find a replacement. There were a few of them listed, but none of them £3. I’m about ready to quit.
I grab my DSLR again and begin using that, but in my opinion nothing can compare to the look and feel of film and also being able to fix a moment in time onto something physical is something that pleases me so once again I grab the Canonet and I proceed to open the back of it. I figure either the shutter is sticking or the rollers have filth in them so I use a small brush and some compressed air and I probe and hope that I can somehow accidentally fix the problem.
It’s 11 months now since I got my mitts on this camera and it’s still acting up but I had just messed with it so I cross my fingers and hope that this time my prints will be crystal clear and free from all unwanted lines and blemishes. I run a test film and low and behold, the results are exactly the same! I still have lines and I still have strange shadows and what look like half frames. A ghost in the camera maybe? I doubt it.
I’m now ready to take this heap of junk and toss it into a fire but I was desperate to take it with me to L’Eroica. The problem is it doesn’t work properly and time is running out for me to find a replacement.
I decide to finally take it to two camera stores with a selection of the dodgy prints to see if they can shed any light on my problem. I got nothing but the web address for a man who could “look at it” for me.
Three days now until L’Eroica and it’s not looking good so I have one last blast at fixing this piece of crap and then, after what seemed like hours of me staring into that back of the camera with a torch and a magnifying glass, like an apple falling onto the head it came to me *rolls drum* all along I’v been shooting rolls of film through this thing and it has no light seals, not anywhere, none!
A quick trip to my local haberdashery and I return with black felt and double sided tape for the DIY repair job. An hour later and I think I’ve solved my problem and just in the nick of time as in two days I fly to Italy for Le Coq Sportif’s L’Eroica. I have just enough time to shoot a roll and have it developed to see the results. These next prints will dictate whether this beauty of a rangefinder ends up either in the fire and burned to death or strapped proudly around my neck in Chianti.
It worked! I win! It’s now fixed and I can’t even begin to tell you how happy I am, it’s such an amazing little thing, it really is and all for £3 too. If you are ever after a compact, robust rangefinder and you can’t afford a Leica, go for one of these, seriously, they are that good.
Aaaaargh! The Muscles on the back on my right leg begin to seize and I pull over to massage (punch) the pain out but it’s not working. I say to myself “dude, you have only ridden 40km, sort yourself out” as men twice my age crawl past me up this long and windy gravel road. It’s midday on Race day at L’eroica and I’m suffering, my training for this event has consisted of a daily 5km commute and that’s it. Like a fool I believed that since I had taken part in the event previously, this year would be a ‘breeze’. Ha! A Breeze.
It wasn’t a breeze at all, this race is a toughie. I’ve ridden up some hard climbs in my time but they were on modern bikes, with modern components and adequate gearing, on butter smooth tarmac. There’s none of that round here, let me tell you. You’re on a pre 84 bike, mate. That’s usually with 10 gears, with a frame made of Steel, toe clips and straps for your feet and tubular tyres. Now, I love all of that stuff as you probably know but out there all I wanted to do was cry into my handlebars after my hands and wrists had been shattered to pieces by the famed white gravel roads.
Earlier that morning I had felt good and strong, I had my English Le Coq Sportif jersey on and like all of my fellow team mates I felt proud but right now I’m just about cooked.
Unlike last year it’s hot as hell, my body feels like it’s been in a microwave and I need water. My bike (an early 70s Cornale) feels like it’s made of lead pipe and I’m going nowhere fast. I’ve eaten well all day at the L’Eroica food stops, Tuscan bean soup, bananas, apricots, bread and jam, the lot but I’ve nothing left, I’m on empty.
I get back on the bike and press on before anyone else passes me and demoralizes me further. There’s 30km to go and I think to myself “there can’t be much more climbing after this hill, surely”. Mike Routledge of the UK team said later on that day that “ he felt like he’d been climbing so much, he should soon be at the moon” He was right.
I’m faced with a wall of white gravel and in my head I can hear the mother out of the Belleville rendezvous film whistling my pedal strokes like a metronome. One-two-three-four… one-two-three-four. I reach into the back of my soaked LCS merino jersey and pull out some sweets that I had stashed from an earlier food stop and jam them into my mouth, right now I need the sugar. I could need these later on but to be honest, I very much doubt that there’ll be a climb as steep and as loose under tyres as this one.
I wonder where the French team are? My English team partner, Patrick and I had been riding with them earlier but we managed to drop them somewhere after food stop number one but I’m sure, given my performance today they will be along soon. I expect them any moment, all of them in the Blue, Blanc, Rouge of the Le Coq Sportif France country jersey, swallowing me up like a massive wave over a fallen surfer.
I want some Coca Cola, the elixir of life, but it’s Sunday and I’m in the wilderness. It’s not going to happen and I accept it.
Suddenly I see Patrick on the side of the road, he’s stopped for me, and we continue up and over the crest and into the descent. I always feel like I’m in a computer game during descents and this is no exception. Some hate dropping down off of hills, I for one love it. I’m an ex downhiller, I should.
With this decent and all of it’s fun comes a fresh perspective. My legs feel a little better and I no longer concentrate on the pain, instead I focus on my surroundings, Tuscany, its utterly beautiful here. Picture postcard country. So the sun is cooking my body, so what, would I rather it raining and blowing a gale? I think not. So the terrain is demanding, so what, would I rather be cycling in Worcestershire? Nope.
At the end of the day I finished the race with no scrapes or techinicals, I also finished ahead the ever-strong French team. I have no idea on how long the 75km took me, I didn’t care. I had finished and I had a cold beer in my hand. I had that elation coursing through me and I was beaming from ear to ear. Sure, I couldn’t quite get my legs to work but I had nowhere to go anyway so it didn’t matter.

Now, that was just a taster of what’s to come, I’v plenty more to post from my weekend’s activities in Chianti, so expect more words and lots of pictures!
Special thanks go out to:
Mike Routledge and Marc Chamberlain of Le Coq Sportif UK.
Patrick and Christophe of le Coq Sportif France.
Patrick, my podna from Oi Polloi.
Ed and Brian of Hanon shop.
Beth from Tea and Cake.
Max from Tokyo Fixed Gear.
I must also give a massive shout out to the whole LCS family, UK, Italy, France, Spain all of you, thank you! You all made the experience truly unforgettable.
Just under three weeks wait until this years L’eroica and once again I’ll be travelling out there to Italy with Le Coq Sportif to document the weekend’s activities.
If you don’t yet know about this fantastic annual event then it’s about time you did. Last year’s L’Eroica -my first- was an absolute eye opener for me and you can read all about it here.

Two stunning photographs of the Passo Pordoi.
The portrait shot is surreal, the mountains actually look like they have been painted in. Amazing.
My love for the TT bike continues with this 1987 Masi Prestige Crono Super.
Professional time trial bike from Masi with Excel (France) tubed framework #PA57-8711 with special chased main tubes. Equipped with Campagnolo C-Record/Chorus group, Regina Extra 7-speed freewheel, 3ttt Moscow/bio arms bar/stem, Flite Titanium saddle, Nitto 66 seat post, Ambrosio/Gipiemme 700/650 carbon disc rims, tubular tires
We headed up to the ‘tradesman’ entrance where the flurry of smug faces with badges on chests that read ‘stall holder’ entered empty handed and exited with frames slung over shoulders. Each time I turn up to a cycle jumble – normally an hour or so before official opening and for reasons I still do not know – I can’t help but look on in absolute envy at these men who trade goods before the curtain goes up.
One morning, this morning, the early rise had paid off. As my partner and I stood, watching the line of items enter and exit the building like leaves carried by an army of ants, there was an opportune gap. The man who had been standing there, guarding the door had gone for his flask of tea. My girl, now standing beyond the golden threshold gestures at me to enter also, me, being a softy, I shake my head from side to side, she grabbed my hand and pulled me along behind her. I was in and it was 8.30am, not the 10am advertised on the flyer, and all thanks to the wife.
Did I manage to grab the vintage cycling bargain of the century? Nope, not really. I actually spent 50p. Right before we were escorted from the beige leisure centre and consequently shamed by the stern organiser, I managed to pick up one of my most treasured possessions today; A book, the 1979 published TI Raleigh story, 52 pages of printed wonder and all featuring the magnificently dominant TI Raleigh team of the 70s. My favourite. Now, having been read, and the pictures ogled it now sits proudly on my bookshelf.
I recently visited Tuscany for Le Coq Sportif’s L’Eroica and, while I was there to ride the race, I was mostly looking forward to the jumble. I wanted to see how the Italians do things and, well, it was mostly the same as here in the U.K but in another language, and outdoors, and hot, with more good stuff. I wandered around, a few paper Euros in my pocket, eyeing up Delta brakes, boxed gruppos and complete bikes dripping in Campagnolo but I found myself, after a few rounds, settling at one stall.
He had, as well as the obligatory sea of componentry, a large and fruitful selection of golden era magazines, badges, bunting, stickers, catalogues, mascots and postcards. Dandy. He wore an oil stained blue jumper, sleeves rolled up, with grey hair and chunky fingers and he chatted with his apple-eating friend. I leafed through a section of Pink Cyclisme cards. On the cover, Maertens, Thévenet, Poulidor, Hinault, to name but a few and all with penned signatures. I pick them up and enquired as to the price of said items. Then, after a lesson, shouted in Italian and pointed out with sausage fingers about the greatest cyclists of all time we agreed on €1 each. I bought ten.
I love a cycle jumble, me, I think they are great. All of that goodness under one roof, the hardware going for an asking price and not to the highest bidder, where you can handle the items and not just be reliant on jpegs on screens, the folks you meet have knowledge and enthusiasm dribbling off of their tongues and relish any opportunity to inform you of the origin of any item sat on their wooden wallpaper pasting table, you can slice their delight with a knife. It is also a social gathering where friends meet, you’ll most likely come across many unmanned stalls as Barry will be over there chatting with Pete. Unfortunately for me there won’t be one around these parts for a good few months as they only seem to spring up in the warmer months, but I suppose that leaves me with plenty of time to garner one of those ‘stall holder’ passes.
Who needs seatstays when you have chain stays like these? Seriously, I have never seen a hencher set of legs.
The Pegoretti ‘Big Leg Emma’. Tonk!
Our friend and artist Riccardo Guasco just sent us some samples of his latest work titled, “The Dream Team” of cyclists. Beautifully captured characters, and you have to love that mustache. See more of the illustrations here in Riccardo’ s gallery.
Via Elcyclista who also wrote the above words and yes, quite a magnificent moustache… just wait until I reveal mine. EEK!
I wrote some words about my recent trip to L’Eroica for road.cc and the piece has just gone live! So if you fancy a read about the perils of riding along wet chalk, go take a peep.
L’Eroica, meaning ‘The Heroic’ is a race held every year in Tuscany, giving up to 3000 like minded, fanatical individuals the chance to ride and race on the ‘Strada Bianche’, the famous white gravel roads of Chianti and to spend two days wallowing in pure cycling nostalgia. In true heroic style only pre-87 bikes are allowed. So there are no auto-indexing gears – this is golden era cycling where shifters are mounted on the down tube, where tubular tyres are also favoured, alongside chrome, cloth bar tape, solid colour paintwork and water bottle holders that attach at the front and where the woolen jersey reigns. Any man interested in the traditions of the Italian cycle race can certainly get his fill here.
I mentioned the craftmanship on this 1945 Stucchi briefly last week but I couldn’t help giving it a post all of it’s own, so here it is, in all of it’s glory. Such detail in all aspects of this frameset are seldom seen nowadays and the headtube alone on this lime green monster is enough excuse for me to go see my bank manager.
Stucchi Tipo S.S.V. Italy, 1945
Road bike frameset from Stucchi, Milano with steel framework #93516 finished in lime green with cream. Includes Magistroni cottered bottom bracket, unmarked steel headset and original brake and shift cables.
Colnago Crono Oro. Italy, 1992
Professional time trial bike from Colnago with carbon monocoque frame finished in clear coat and yellow. Equipped with Campagnolo C-Record Colnago C35 group, ITM Krono bar/stem, Selle Bassano Colnago saddle, Colnago disc wheels 700/650 rims, Vittoria tubular tires.
So, I have returned from Italy and L’Eroica with somewhat of a fancy for all things Italian… and cycling.
So, due to me and my new penchant for italian cycling goodness, you can expect a good handful of solid Italian related posts coming your way and starting right now, with this awesome bit of memorabilia and also featuring the face of the great Jean Bobet, one of my favourites of the moment, after reading his book; Tomorrow we ride.
I simply love the font used on this.

In an astonishing demonstration of the business principle “losses are a good thing for an internet company,” Uber managed to lose $1.2 billion in the first half of 2016. No word on how it plans to follow up this feat in the second half.
An Uberwhelming Six Months
Practicing the age old business plan of losing money on every sale but making it up on volume, Uber burned through cash at a rate that would bankrupt most companies in a matter of hours. According to Bloomberg News (among others), the private company held a conference call last week in which it discussed its losses. It lost over $500 million in the first quarter, with losses accelerating in the second, due at least in part, to competition in China. It has since sold its China operations to local competitor Didi Chuxing. Time Magazine noted that the cost of subsidizing Chinese drivers was tremendous so, looking forward, there is nowhere to go but, well, less down.
Fares aren’t going to pick up anytime soon, either. If Uber Plus and self-driving cars take off, your Uber trip could soon be less than the cost of public transportation. No doubt it will be able to stop at Starbucks along the way for you.
Nonetheless, Uber is in no danger of going under, as it has a healthy balance sheet and continues to receive cash from investors. It could be worse. They could be Lyft, who reportedly couldn’t sell itself last week. Lyft reportedly denied the report that it was for sale, a sure sign that it really was.
How Much Does It Matter?
Despite the greater fool theory of investing, a company can’t lose money forever. And frankly, healthy and profitable competition is good for us. I don’t see any partnerships with taxi companies coming anytime soon that will earn you points or miles. Uber has more of a business plan than just a sock puppet, but I hope they exist for a reason other than to put all of its competitors out of business.

Fort Walton Beach Florida
Fort Walton Beach Florida is picture perfect with rolling white
sands and some of the largest sand dunes you will ever see.
Sand dunes: Nature and man working together.
blow the sand away from the shore. Man constructs fences to stop the blowing sand and in the process, a sand dune is created.
The sand dune keeps the sand on the beach and creates a respite from the hot sun for birds, small animals and vegetation.
I would be remiss if I didn't tell you that most of the sand dunes you will see in Florida are made by nature and they get to be huge. For example, see
Topsail Hill State Park.
As the sand piles up against the fence, seeds get mixed in with the sand and take root and grow. Now the sand dune becomes a food source for the birds and animals.
When the seeds have taken root, the root structure grows down and across and holds the sand in place. After a while, the sand dunes are usually strong enough for the fences to be removed.
Sea Oats are commonly seen growing out of sand dunes. They are willowy stalks resembling young corn stalks. It is illegal to pull them up so enjoy them in their natural habitat.
Beach-combing is fun on Fort Walton Beach Florida. It is easy to find rare and beautiful seashells to take home and place around your house to remember your trip to this beautiful area.
For the more adventurous, come to Ft Walton Beach Florida to experience some of Florida’s best back country hiking and mountain biking here. Exert yourself and then lounge on the beach for awhile.
Temperatures remain relatively high all year round- in the 60s and 70s from November through March, picking up to the 80s and 90s from April through October.
No matter what time of year though, Fort Walton Beach Florida will welcome you with sparking blue water and pure white sand. Your feet will stay cool, due to the nature of the quartz sand and your pix will look like you are standing in snow.
Destin Beach Florida.
Destin Florida is an extremely popular neighbor and there is a lot to do here; activities abound for all ages and fun for everyone in the family.
Great activities to try and nearby attractions:
- One of the most frequented attractions of Fort Walton Beach is the Elgin Air Force Base, home to the US Air Force and Armament Museum.
- This provides the family with an adventurous opportunity to explore a little bit of history while enjoying looking at many different military airplane displays, missiles and bombs.
- Don’t miss the beauty of nearby Okaloosa Island where you can enjoy pristine beaches and spend a day of family fun on the boardwalk for shopping, an arcade for the kids and other fun activities.
- Okaloosa Fishing Pier offers some GREAT fishing opportunities and incredible views.
Kids of most ages:
provides a fun family activity where you can see all kinds of typical Florida water wildlife such as dolphins, alligators, sea lions and otters as well as penguins.
This is one of the oldest marine wildlife parks in the United States today but the shows and displays are anything but old and are sure to impress those of all ages.
Eating: The moderately priced Café Tango is a homey restaurant and atmosphere that is known for its seafood, steaks and pastas.
The restaurant is very small and cozy, but the taste sensations here are very big! For a tasty breakfast, lunch… or brunch, of course, check out Big City American Bistro.
Sleeping: Enjoy a cozy stay in the Marina Motel which is great for fishermen since it overlooks the marina and is located directly across the street from the beach.
Enjoy a beautiful and comfortable stay at the Ramada Plaza Beach Resort where the kids can play in one of the amazing and scenic outdoor pool areas.
Fort Walton Beach Florida has a bit of everything. Come on down!

01 Apr NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Ti Launches for $1,999, Around 10% Faster Performance
NVIDIA has finally launched the GeForce RTX 3090 Ti, its new flagship, Ampere-class gaming graphics card with 10,752 CUDA cores and 24 GB of 21 Gbps GDDR6X memory. The “Big Ferocious GPU,” as the company likes to call it, is 60% faster than the GeForce RTX 2080 Ti and 55% faster than the TITAN RTX, according to NVIDIA.
NVIDIA hasn’t provided any details on what that delay was all about, but the company did confirm the MSRP of the new BFGPU. The GeForce RTX 3090 Ti officially costs $1,999, a price tag that makes it $500 more than the standard GeForce RTX 3090 model.
You’ll probably need a new power supply
After Igor Wallossek at Igor’s Lab tested the card, he determined you should set aside 550W to 600W of power consumption just for the graphics card (accounting for the occasional spike in power draw). Demands like that are going to require a power supply offering around 1,000W, which is likely going to be a step up for most people.
so if you’re thinking of taking the plunge and buying an RTX 3090 Ti, make sure you check that your existing power supply can handle it. And if you’re building a new PC from scratch, don’t make the mistake of getting a power supply that isn’t up to the task.
The absolute best performance
it is an absolute beast when it comes to performance. According to Anthony Garreffa at TweakTown, Nvidia’s latest “tops the benchmark charts without a problem, besting the previous RTX 3080 Ti and RTX 3090 graphics cards we’ve looked to for the best performance from a GeForce GPU.”
In almost every game TweakTown tested, the RTX 3090 Ti offered the best performance around. Indeed, in some cases, it makes 4K ultra gaming at 120 frames per second (fps) easily within reach. Even 8K gaming at 60 fps, as silly as it might sound, is doable with this monster of a card.
So, if you’re after the absolute best gaming graphics card on the planet, then the RTX 3090 Ti is undoubtedly the top option.

EU Adopts Control Plan to Detect Fraud in Marketing of FoodsJones Hayden
The European Union recommended a plan to investigate fraudulent food-marketing practices in a bid to restore consumer confidence following the mislabelling of beef products containing horse meat.
The plan’s controls are to run for one month, after which they may be extended for a further two months, the European Commission, the EU’s Brussels-based executive, said today in an e-mailed statement. The EU will fund 75 percent of the cost of the program, according to the statement.
Retailers across the region have withdrawn frozen meat products after they were shown to contain horse DNA. The scandal has led policy makers to urge the industry to make the food chain less opaque.
Under the EU’s plan, controls will be set up, mainly at retail level, for foods marketed to consumers as containing beef to detect the presence of unlabelled horse meat. Tests also will be carried out for possible residue of in horse meat of phenylbutazone, a potentially harmful veterinary drug known as bute.
The plan foresees testing of total of 2,250 beef samples across the EU, ranging from 10 to 150 per member state. To test for bute, the program prescribes the testing of one sample for every 50 tons of horse meat, with each nation carrying out at least five tests, according to the EU.

Daniell Mathews –
Great setI got this as a gift for my husband, who builds guitars, and who was very happy when he opened it. He has said they are perfect and well made. He has used them several times with no issues. I’m very happy with this set.
Steven E Stewart –
Nice setIt’s very convenient to have all my truss rod tols in one compact package. I could probably assemble my own kit for less money. the extra cost will probably be offset if you have a few set ups to do.
A great set of useful tools!Instead of fumbling around with make-shift tools, this set makes life easier! For some silly, no good reason, I thought I could use what I had around the shop to fix my BB300. Big mistake. I stopped before I messed anything up. Got the blessings from the wife to buy the set. Waited a whole day and received my package. 10 minutes later, I am playing away, happy as a clam. Don’t know how happy clams can be, but I hear they are content at least. I am very content and happy with my purchase.
Music nomad luthier tool setGreat tool set doesn’t fit all trussrods but it’s small and compact
Nice tools with a nice case.A nice tool set with a case that feels durable and useful. The tool holder inside the case is hard and feels solid so it won’t end up breaking later and your tools are loose in the case. This would be good for someone who works on multiple guitars frequently. The tool I used had a nice solid grip on the very small screws and the socket was deep, secure and the handle gave good leverage when turning.However, I returned mine because I own only two acoustics and the tool set only worked on one of them. Apparently my Martin requires a hex key with a long reach. I ended up buying truss rod wrench and hex key separately for each acoustic.
Amazon Customer –
DiscouragedThe media could not be loaded.
I bought this kit because I own a few guitars and been doing minor neck adjustments. I also work on my kids guitars. So far on the first guitar, I had to use a Allen wrench out of my own collection and the 1/4 socket was to tall to fit the guitar. I could grind it down to make it fit but I thought I’d ask and see if you have a shorter socket?
Tools Don’t Fit All Truss RodsAlthough a fair value for the money when the tools fit the guitar truss rods they will fit, the socket tools do NOT fit many guitar makes because the socket themselves are too long, especially on Gibson guitars. The sockets need to be of a shorter length. As far as the Allen wrench tools, they are too short to comfortably fit many guitars, such as Martin guitars. You would be better off to purchase the maker-specific tools from the instrument manufacturer…..
Has what you need.Truss rods for ever what reason come in all sizes. The tools are quality. I also like the fact the case is black. Their other set of screwdriver/wrench combo, is in a blue case. A quick look, and you can grab the right set of tools. Music Nomad has what you need to set up, or repair your guitar.
Kate Cernak –
Very Convenient!Nice to have all the tools in a compact case!

K Shivaswamy, T Vetrichevvel, D Thappa, C Laxmisha. Malignant Acanthosis Nigricans With Tripe Palms. The Internet Journal of Dermatology. 2004 Volume 3 Number 1.
Acanthosis nigricans (AN) is characterized by hyperpigmentation and papillary hypertrophy, predominantly of major body folds. In extensive AN, it can be found on the areolae, around the umbilicus, and on the mucosa. Rarely, the involvement may be universal.
A 62-year-old male agricultural worker came to us with asymptomatic gradually progressive generalized pigmentation of the body of 6 months duration. In addition, he had weight loss (>10 kg), anorexia, and profound weakness. For this complaint, he was examined in a hospital about 4 months back and was found to have a mass in upper abdomen. Ultrasound abdomen showed irregular wall thickening at antropyloric junction of stomach. Endoscopic examination showed an ulcerated growth at the same site. On exploratory laparotomy, an inoperable large growth was found at antropyloric junction of the stomach infiltrating pancreas. The abdomen was closed after a partial gastrectomy with anterior antecolic gastrojejunostomy Pathological examination of the infiltrating tumor mass revealed features of mucous secreting adenocarcinoma. Following surgery, his skin pigmentation continued to increase substantially.
On general physical examination, there was moderate pallor. Cutaneous examination showed generalized, near universal, hyperpigmentation and velvety rugosities, more marked in periorificial sites, major body folds, around the areolae, dorsa of hands and feet. Numerous skin tags were also noted in the body folds. Bilateral palms and soles had velvety thickening. Finger tips demonstrated pachydermatoglyphy (exaggerated finger prints) (Fig. 1). Finger nails were thin and brittle (Fig. 2). Mucosal examination revealed scrotal tongue.
Complete hemogram showed a hemoglobin of 6 g/dl, raised erythrocyte sedimentation rate (60 mm in 1st hour) and a normocytic normochromic peripheral blood smear. Liver and renal function tests were within normal limits. Chest skiagram did not reveal any abnormalities. Histopathological examination of the representative skin lesion (cubital fossa) showed features of hyperkeratosis, papillomatosis and hyperpigmentation of the basal layer consistent with the diagnosis of acanthosis nigricans. Based on these clinical features and laboratory findings, a diagnosis of malignant acanthosis nigricans with tripe palms was made.
There are several categories of AN, namely, benign hereditary, benign, obesity associated, syndromic, malignant, drug induced, acral, naevoid, and mixed. 2 The malignant form of the disease is sudden in onset, rapidly progressive, and there is partial or complete resolution with treatment of the original malignancy. The involvement is more generalized compared with the predominantly flexural involvement in other forms. Malignant AN associated with tripe palms is usually seen with gastric adenocarcinoma whereas tripe palm alone occur as an isolated cutaneous marker of various tumors involving bladder, bronchus, rectum, bile duct etc. 3 Tripe palms is a descriptive term for a cutaneous paraneoplastic keratoderma characterized by velvety thickening of palms, with accentuation of the normal dermatoglyphic ridges and sulci. 3, 4 Although, tripe palms have been reported in patients without any underlying malignancy, the majority (90%) of the cases are associated with internal neoplasm. 3, 4 The reason for the development of acanthosis nigricans or palmaris is still debatable, but many studies have shown that release of epidermal growth factors (EGF) by the tumor cells are responsible for this. 5
Malignant AN is one of the rare cutaneous paraneoplastic syndromes. 2 It may develop concurrent with, before, or after the diagnosis of the associated internal malignancy. Once the diagnosis of malignant AN is considered, all efforts should be undertaken to locate the hidden malignancy. In most cases, the occult neoplasm is highly aggressive or in an inoperable stage as in our case. Average life expectancy of the patients after the malignancy is discovered or resected is one year. 2 Near universal involvement by malignant AN with nail dystrophy seen in our case is rarely recorded phenomenon.

It's been awhile since we last saw actress and former FHM cover girl Michelle Madrigal. But just last March 3, she was spotted attending her sister Ehra Madrigal's wedding that was held in Boracay. (via PEP.ph)
You probably remember Michelle as a finalist in Star Circle Quest, a reality-based talent competition; the same competition that launched the careers of other known celebrities such as Sandara Park, Melissa Ricks, Joseph Bitangcol, Erich Gonzales, Joross Gamboa, and Hero Angeles. She was also seen in TV shows like Maging Sino Ka Man, Adarna, Luna Mystik and variety show ASAP.
We last saw her in 2015 as part of the show Pasion De Amor in a supporting role, then, in a move that surprised fans, she flew to the United States in January the following year to pursue culinary arts.
She also clarified that she was not pregnant. "Peace out Manila! See y'all in 12 months... And no I ain't Preggo coz some people be making up shit. In about 21 hours, I'll be in an unfamiliar place with no family or friends. #CulinaryJourney #CookingWithMitch #ShitJustGotReal"
Now, she's training with JW Marriott Austin in Texas.
Aside from her amazing foodie posts on Instagram such as these...
Michelle seems to be having fun in the States with friends and has found a new love named Troy Woolfolk, a former football player and track star.
She looks happy and we're hoping that she continues to pursue her dreams!

"LOSCHWITZ: Körnerplatz" Top 5 Page for this destination Dresden Off The Beaten Path Tip by Kathrin_E
Dresden Off The Beaten Path: 122 reviews and 284 photos
Körnerplatz, the square at the end of the Blaues Wunder bridge, is a traffic hub for the suburbs on the right bank of the Elbe, both for car traffic and buses. From here, too, the funicular up to Weißer Hirsch (photo 3) and the suspension railway up to Loschwitzer Höhe depart.
This area which is situated much higher than the Elbe and thus quite safe of floods was the location of the first settlement which then extended further downhill towards the river. When the bridge was built the old village houses were demolished and substituted by larger buildings in the historistic style of the late 19th century.
The building on the southern side of the square (photo 2) contains an excellent coffeehouse and bakery, Café Wippler, which is famous for its Eierschecke, a Dresden cake speciality.
