Of course I do not mind would you placed the letter and my pictures on Your site. I will try to somehow do some pictures of the occasion a few other interesting solutions that can meet here on the road cycling.
Maybe I can shoot a movie that shows how the practice looks after the British cycling streets and no solution as wspamialym are these boxes for bicycles at intersections. But somehow after the festivities, when again a lot of people will be the morning to go to work. I wish now I am perseverance, and as many successes in persuading officials to implement proven and these revolutionary ideas on the road bike, because, as an example of England shows
courageous and unconventional approach to the problem is often much better than a conservative solution, which is always half measures. I would like to
Boats were once the bike path, whom we zazdroscilyby other Polish cities. Paths of both those in the separate strings - for me leisure - as well as an integral part of the roadway, designed for people for whom it counts the time travel, for people who follow to work, school, shopping, party or just in front of him. And this wish and Lodz, and you as an organization that constantly educating upierdliwie officials.

Police Games That Are Like Poptropica
- Opinion on the bike path Lodz
Hi
will probably not I was associated, but just in case a reminder to mention that we met at the first meeting that was held in ZDiT-e last year (sometime in the middle), organized by Mr. Kazmierczak. Later, for various reasons, unfortunately I did not have time to get them to appear, except that for some time I was not in Lodz. However, a month ago, I was able przyjechania here again. One of the first things I did was go to the newly built section of bicycle path along the side of Forest Street Łagiewniki Lagiewnicka.
From what I remember meeting in ZDiTie repeatedly acknowledged that it was like to build bicycle paths Lagiewnicka not only falls but not as a serious obstacle to them by people on bicycles moved. Unfortunately, the new part of the bike path was built in the same way difficult to accept.
short: the hill - a curb - hole (driveway on estates) curb - hill, etc. The surface has been subordinated to the bike path podjazdom on individual properties. Everything would be fine if not for the hills between driveways (driveways were probably made in the first place because people need to be able
drive up and leaving their property). Is the company building the path was too much sand and perhaps a question of imagination and willingness to vary the cyclists ride? Or maybe the fault of the designers? As if there were no further congratulates thrown money away, but rather on
path on which few people will ride. Conclusion can be drawn, however, he did not think much has changed in the quality of completed bicycle routes in Lodz during the last year. At one
I read the forums that together with ZDiT working on something which might be called was the idea of \u200b\u200bbuilding a road bike in Lodz. If you can throw a few pennies from each other. In my opinion, criticized the bicycle path in Lodz, you can:
a) too complicated course (often over a distance of several hundred yards the path several times passing from left to right side of the road, which means that cyclists senselessly waste time waiting for a green light at bicycle crossings, and yet cycle routes around the world are an alternative way to travel around the city in part because the bike can
more quickly move from one point to another than by car or public transport)
b) the lack of exits and entries - which means that there is a risk of getting a few hundred zloty fine for passing bicycle lanes at a pedestrian crossing only because some genius came up with no on the bicycle path is not a motorway so it should be as many entries and exits to as many people can freely and comfortably enjoy the tracks. Unfortunately, road bike in Lodz is the least important element, which officials think only when someone starts upierdliwie enough not to claim, as seen with the Regional Tram .. Porobiono new crossing for pedestrians but forgotten by the design of bicycle trips as people living on the east side Zgierska can not 'not sitting' the bike to enter the bike path running on the west side Zgierska)
c) curbs and bicycle crossings at driveways the estates are dangerous and slow cycling.
d) indication - switches to start the green light, often unnecessarily are mounted on the less important intersections. Poor synchronization of lights is visible eg the two road crossings by trucks, where you have to stop twice to turn the green light, which increases the running time, and simply irritating. It is also annoying is the green light for a bike does not turn on automatically when on the road bike path parallel to the cars the green light in May. This means that the switch does not force the green light to accelerate the inclusion of the green light for pedestrians and cyclists and the only additional steps that must be done to go on the road side of the road.
e) Paving road bike on the wrong side of the pavement making are treated by pedestrians as sidewalks ..
f) Road cycle should be an integral part of the road, especially in cities such as Lodz where often it is not possible to lead a series of separate bicycle lanes for at Lodz road bike do not have the continuity of such intersection of Western and Limanowskiego, where he is impeded by a very narrow sidewalk and the building ..
separate strings should be conducted only after the recreational path which could navigate safely especially whole family young children.
such paths should combine the greatest łódzkie parks and forests, and places like that Piotrkowska Manufactory of Pl. Freedom after the revitalization. Such a path could repeatedly move from left to right side of the road, because the people moving on the most important to them would be safe and not travel time.
Attached are some photos from London.
pictures below
There are bike paths everywhere .. wherever the roadway, and therefore
length of roads for cyclists is probably over a thousand rather than 40 km and it is questioned as it is in Lodz. After that bikes as you can see in the pictures have priority in setting up at intersections. Cars must wait until all moving cyclists.
simple and effective solution. Of course, accidents happen (he had a week ago) as well as isolated from road cycling routes (not once flew through the handlebars driving on ice when the driver joining the movement had forgotten to look to the right ..). Sometimes, even in London a deer entering car the bicycle path, but
to fight and educate these people are vulgar gestures and words, well unless the driver itself, feels guilty and quickly corrects his mistake. If officials do not dare Łódź on ambitious, radically changing the way bike travel around the city address, we will always be stuck with palliatives or ordinary dullness, and the bikes will never be in the boat
alternative means of communication, alternative and mass transit.
also urge you to watch a road in London on http://maps.google.co.uk/
Just
to maximize the map and will show you a picture and arrows that can be passed along in a smooth manner to the next. Not all the roads on this page are
shown in the pictures, certainly including around Clapham Park Rd.

How Big Should A Sun Hat Be
media smęter
shameful confession: I play in a home-built media center has a few nice years, roughly since the days of Windows MCE 2004.
started innocently, from home-made installation discs MSDN version of XP Media Center 2004, which is the version - despite its no cooperation with TV tuner, or PAL television broadcasting standard in force at a radius of 500 km - had one indisputable advantage. Load in 15 seconds, no matter how zasyfiony was the system. Trick dwuwątkowym charge involving an absolute minimum of the system used in the MCE was indeed later nestling by Vista.
Suffice to say that I put everything on the Shuttle barebonie ST-61 equipped with a P4 2.4 HT, ATI 9800 SE graphics All In Wonder (TV tuner card that conferred me many gray hairs) and 1 GB of memory. It worked, although the 2004 version of the TV are unable to play despite the use of multiple hacks and tricks (such as the modified drivers for your graphics card, pretending that the MPEG-2 encoder on the card is the hardware). But I used it because it was fast and reasonably fit.
breakthrough came with the version of MCE 2005.
Once that gave the use in this part of the world (MS bought up content in EPG as part of Polish TV channels) and have distinguished between PAL D / K the PAL B / G Two, it was impossible to force it to work with ATI drivers (first hakiersko, after a half year ATI for the same maturity that MCE is way better than their quasi-mediacenterowego szitu and became the appropriate drivers supportować the software MPEG-2 encoder .) Three, that he has made to set the card hardware'owym MPEG-2 (also on the ATI Theater 550) and I had two tuners. Four, that somehow zjarałem 9800 SE AIW card and swapped it on the X950 AIW (AGP still on, still in the same barebonie). Five, finally, that I invested in a quiet and efficient power supply fan (although This may seem unlikely, the entire shuttle was cooled by a fan 8 cm). Six at the end, I gave my 29 "Sony parents, because I needed more space in the room, and in addition Bubu (0.5 years) began to exhibit an excessive interest in the tenth muse.
MCE 2005 had no choice but to act. TVN24 and recording of TV work, work, work ... until it burned up the motherboard in barebonie. I've been. Nieserwisowalna in this part of the world. With desperation I bought an LCD TV, hoping that somehow go MediaCenter.
not passed.
In the current Setup, (referred to in the previous entry) I found reasons to have such a pile of scrap metal: games and movies full hd. Videos from TV, I stopped recording (with the exception of the Clone Wars, which we see passionate young).

Circular White Spot Inside Of Lip
Smoke on the water, an increase of temperature and cooling water
graphics card already in place, basically the end of installation, the tube is almost sorted. In the background of power - the perpetrator of the confusion about all the extra guts.
About the adventures of the media center in the new entry - just about the current Setup,. For two years I was the holder of the housing Silverstone LC-10, silver in color and frame sizes legitimate home theater with a real event. 9 kg of metal. For this album bought for allegro Asus, the new power supply, and the rest of the guts of old (because in case the shuttle has already rocking brand new Via Epia). Set acted while in such a setup, replaced the fan on the Zalman on the card (much quieter) but was still far from ideal. In addition to power supply (which is slowly air we've had 12-centrymetrowym fan and busily throwing them out) was still on the pair graduates with heatpipe heatsink to the processor, and a fan inlet ...
After displaying a bit faster, and definitely warmer Prock HT 3.2 (no damage because it guts and slabs, and power always need more) and replacing the X1950 XT graphics (including together without a tuner, it's hard, but Rainbow Six Vegas without it did not want to move:)), it became clear that housing is getting a tad ciepławo. While the council gave 2.4 at 50 degrees under stress, for the 3.2 70 degrees was not too great. The wall on the back of the computer was one of the most heated walls in the area.
As it turned out, saved the situation ... power supply fan, wypompowujący heat from inside. Unluckily, that the power supply first victim of the struggle for peace - somehow at the end of last year I mentioned it on the 450W version of the Silverstone Night Jar. Zero moving parts, protected static heat radiators, the silence from the power supply.
When the fan ran out of power - the air in the cabinet stood in one place. Housing is not a work of art when it comes to cooling (warm air has a tendency to resort to the mountains, not to the rear of the enclosure, even urged by two wentylatorkami), but in these conditions definitely did not give advice. Suffice it to say that the max hours H.264 Thermal shutdown resulted. 100 degrees was not really a feat.
After a two-three months of tweaking and building wind tunnels for air decided to take serious steps, specifically in the direction of a friend already shop with accessories for cooling. Prepared as never before (Figure enclosure with dimensions and heights of elements) I started thinking of two options: a really quiet air cooling involving the modification of the cabinet (a hole etc.) Or the previously uncharted water-cooling, involving mainly the visions of puddles under the cupboard .. .
After 15 minutes of conversation with the guys from the store (cooling.pl, greet) I decided on a hydraulic option:) In addition to the CPU cooling system I decided to turn the graphics, and cooler - to throw out.
In short, the system consists of two blocks of water-Polish manufacturer of MNP on the CPU and graphics, a small and very quiet pump with a small reservoir expansion, 3 meters of tubing and cooler with two fans niesłyszalnymi (12 cm, 900 rpm).
Below - photostory of the installation:)
Submission Agreement took me almost three hours, due to the measuring tube in the air and attempt to install high-speed connectors (if they are fast, I shudder to think about content.) Hint 1: The tubes are significantly more likely to cooperate after being heated in hot water. Hint 2: Murphy's Law applies to a length of pipe cut to size.
underneath the CPU and graphics unit, the tube has already flooded and taken outside to the cooler.
system during the filling of the reservoir pump set to the left, above the rest of the components. Getting rid of the remnants of air - especially with the cooler - 20 minutes shaking and tilting. Guts have not yet installed.
CPU block already in place. Screws as the Polish construction little subtle, but effective. Laying Pipe - nightmare.
graphics card already in place, basically the end of installation, the tube is almost sorted. In the background of power - the perpetrator of the confusion about all the extra guts.
view of the whole mess from the air - basically everything already in place. The hard disk hidden under the DVD drive, a basket on drives removed because disturbed graphics card. Cables and tubes, arranged with the greatest possible care as the third morning.
And finally, proper cooling - cooler, plus two lazy fans hooked on the extended cable from the CD.
And finally, proper cooling - cooler, plus two lazy fans hooked on the extended cable from the CD. Conclusions:
- is quiet! interferes only hard drive (SSD zabudżetował already:))
- water in the system is a little heat, a processor with 90 before the water went down to 40 under stress
- motherboard, unfortunately, a little worse, radiator warms northbridge'u it to 55 -60 degrees - there is room for adding another block (though frankly I do not want to do)
- cooler hidden behind a cupboard with a computer - out of sight, out of mind
- impossible to play back and encode movies. `
And last: I decide not to continue unless exchange (board, processor, graphics). Cushion the equipment until natural death, and then ... probably buy myself a Mac Mini and PS3.

Swollen Red Painful Cuticles
Diet, which is a really great post.
Post to your blog may not be so great, but ... over the past four weeks quite intensively struggling with weight.
Post to your blog may not be so great, but ... over the past four weeks quite intensively struggling with weight.
After two weeks of diet Copenhagen (of which the first two days were really hard, together with a headache the whole first night) the result was so encouraging (- 7), that I decided to go forward and pass on the outsourcing of food by an external supplier ( praise on the blog, as it does not include wtopki over the next four weeks). Every morning bag of food for the day. To my surprise, frank, 1000 kcal can mean quite a lot of diverse food, which sometimes I can not overeat (diet Copenhagen has left a a sharp reduction in use).
order to further plunge, I started to get up at 6:00 and leave for half an hour on the bike:), once a week to squash (the second exit and immediately the injury, half my ass urwało), and of tortures in six of Weider.
Durable months in total, losing almost 9 kg (with metering naprofilu details for odwazsie.pl, which has not yet dared go public).
contracted in front of me the next four weeks of diet, with a break the weekly challenge of a departure for the holidays.
And to think that in high school I weighed 84 kg, at the same height ...
