All in one weekend… I’ll be bleary-eyed tomorrow.

Tree City USA

Maybe we should rethink our commitment to urban forestry. I’m not exactly feeling the full benefits.

More here and here.

Edit: By request, here’s the poster image in pdf to download, print, and/or share with your favorite City Council members.

bike lane advocates = terrorists?

Sunday’s Washington Post has an article on the long arm of the law…

The Maryland State Police surveillance of advocacy groups was far more extensive than previously acknowledged, with records showing that troopers monitored — and labeled as terrorists — activists devoted to such wide-ranging causes as promoting human rights and establishing bike lanes.

The sidebar to the printed article (photo clipping at left) indicates that Critical Mass was targeted as security threat for “asserting the cyclists right [sic] to the road and not denying the rights of others.” Thanks to Jym Dyer for sharing the photo.

Who knew that advocating for cleaner transportation alternatives and more humane urban development was a threat to national security…

JPG, Zen, and fixed

One of my photos is up for a vote. The question: whether it should be included in a magazine issue of photos themed Zen.

If it moves you, feel free to vote here by February 10th. Note: You probably have to become a member of JPG magazine first.

Thanks mom and dad. I’ll have to do a little work on it (grease the wheels, etc) before I can ride it to work.

    I don’t know… I don’t have an answer, but I think a worthy pursuit in life is to ask questions the answers to which cannot be Googled. It’s often useful just to articulate the problem, and that may be all we can do. — Phillip Barron "Doping scandals spoiling the spirit of sports"
