I also sent the message in my blog post to David Watson, Massbike Executive Director, who reeilpd as follows: LivableStreets got an advocacy grant from the Alliance for Biking and Walking and the League last year for their bridge campaign. That's why they are featured. I wouldn't worry about it. I thank him for the clarification, but I see it a little bit differently. I see the League as favoring Livable Streets, to the disadvantage of Massbike. I mean, for one thing, giving Livable Streets a grant but also going back to the Boston Bicycle Summit in 2007.To organize that event, the City turned to the League, and the League hired Jeff Rosenblum, then with Livable Streets. Massbike was left out of the loop for planning of the event for weeks. At that time, I was the League's Regional Director for New York and New England and also on the Massbike Board of Directors. I was in communication with both David and League President Andy Clarke, trying to get Andy to answer David's phone calls and e-mails. This situation went as far as David's needing to schedule vacation time so as not to conflict with the Summit, but not getting an answer about Summit dates until rather late, and from me, not directly from Andy. I suspect that the reluctance to involve Massbike originated with the City of Boston which had had a poor relationship with Massbike over the years. I do not regard Massbike as responsible for this situation: Massbike had made very significant progress with the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, its agencies, the MBTA (Metropolitan Boston Transit Authority) etc., just not with Boston. In any case, it was Andy Clarke who did not communicate with David. In the end, Massbike did participate in the Summit, though the atmosphere for participation had been significantly soured, and there continued to be misunderstandings and discord. The League's Bridges policy statement goes so far in its coverage of Livable Streets as to wander off the subject of bridges into a discussion of Livable Streets' after-the-fact opinions on the Central Artery-Third Harbor Tunnel project, (the famous Big Dig ), which did not include any bridges of interest to bicyclists or pedestrians. Livable Streets was not founded until this project was largely completed; the one bridge in the project, the Zakim-Bunker Hill Bridge, a limited-access bridge, rises very high up at its north end; any of three other nearby crossings of the Charles River would be preferable. The Ted Williams tunnel, also part of the project, could on the other hand offer useful bicycle access via the MBTA Silver Line buses that run through it. Transport of bicycles on MBTA buses has been an ongoing issue with Massbike, and has met with real success in recent years; former Massbike Board member David Loutzenheiser deserves major credit in this work. As I write this, I don't know whether Silver Line buses transport bicycles yet. There is no discussion of either the bridge or the tunnel in the League document.There has been very significant Massbike involvement in securing bicycle and pedestrian access across the limited-access Whittier Bridge between Newburyport and Amesbury, in Massachusetts, and this bridge is not even mentioned in the document.As the author of revisions to the League's policy statements during my tenure on the League's Board, I also wonder to what degree the Board presently is involved in crafting new policy documents such as the one on bridges. I would have expected and hoped that my successor on the League's Board, John Siemiatkoski, also President of Massbike, would have asked for a fair mention of Massbike, if involved in crafting or review of the document. I wonder who did write it. It required a rather impressive amount of research and so, looks like the work of a staffer rather than a Board member, but as I write this, I don't know.

Glad you like the recipes Djanira!! I'm sorry you can't find a ddoeyrathr, I guess Spain isn't so into the raw foods Next time you're in the States you'll have to grab one!Good luck with the Crazy Sexy Diet Cleanse. I'm reading the book now and LOVING it!!

In accordance with my study, after a in oecorlfsure process home is bought at a bidding, it is common to the borrower to be able to still have the remaining unpaid debt on the bank loan. There are many loan merchants who try to have all service fees and liens paid back by the next buyer. On the other hand, depending on specific programs, rules, and state legal guidelines there may be several loans which aren't easily solved through the switch of loans. Therefore, the obligation still remains on the consumer that has acquired his or her property foreclosed on. Thank you sharing your ideas on this website.

Real Mashi.t

great win mate in you next post could you post your squad i'm new and havent seen it

The premierleague is not the best league in the world cause wwhen we play Barcelona and Real Madrid we get outclassed so the premierleague is faiding!

wow,........seriously man,.......sergio ramos thought we was againts messi or other world class players

tottenham divced like f.ucking cunts

Chelsea deserve to win the Champions League tile next year because they rule. Frank Lampard is the absolute best player ever. Drogba pwns(Ivory Coast).Kalou outstanding. Cech, go Czech Republic. Ivanovic and Luiz are the best defenders ever. Terry excellent at defense and GOALIE!!!!!

not a very good referee this match

Should have won the 2nd leg but due to poor Spurs shooting, Gomez errors on 4th and 5th goals with some poor referring Madrid are through. Can't see them beating Barca though....we will be back next season and stronger

the fans of barcelona are faggots... c'mon they make the club look bad (not every barca fan) ... there are some mature barca fans but the little 10 year olds are the pproblem :/

hala madridddddd untill they losse to barca ;0 btw im in class fern

performance from tottenham deserevd 2-0 apart from gomes mistake but the result is 0-1 football can be really unfair sometimes...

madrid had luck tottenham deserved 2 penalty and ramos sux i noticed he got humilated against every opponent who has big name or a known talent like Bale, Henry, Villa, Ronaldinho, Messi, Iniesta.......

great game by Tottenham in all standards but they we in a big hurry,Bale was unstoppable and Ramos couldnt handle him,but R.Madrid are world class,great by both teams

Im a Liverpool fan but my hero is GARETH BALE

iam afraid that real madrid will dei in the hands of barcelone after five goals

Madrid won 11-1 before because Madrid bought the game. Madrid is a money whore!!! they can't win so they buy it! 5-0 was won by Barca because they played really very well not because Barca paid for it.

Tottenham were Awesoem GOMEZ minimized that reputation, if Madrid gonna play like this i can't see thm going pass BARCA to the Finals
