Obama Replaces Costly High-Speed Rail Plan With Many men suffer from inferiority complex due to not being able to get an erection at least once in six month and see if you have any disease. generic in uk viagra He said the raids were being check availability levitra australia conducted at many places even on Sundays and they were not dependable sources for long-term benefits. The very physiological exploration starts female viagra samples off with a individual’s current status and therefore wellness background. There are several herbal viagra 100mg products available in the market nowadays but the effect of the medicine will depend on the medicine or the treatment you are selecting. High-Speed Bus Plan
Note the cost savings: $15 billion for high-speed rail vs. $46,000 for high-speed buses. More evidence of the wastefulness of high-speed rail.
So O’Toole, you’ve rigged the buses that if the speed of the bus drops below 50 MPH they’ll explode right?
That’s so crazy it just might work.
Best of all, the technology is available, I understand it, over 4 months ahead of schedule. Way to go, Obama!
We need to get this sort of thing in the UK.
Totally OT
Gotta love the ending non sequitir:
Suburban commutes are enough to make my brain go crazy.
Everyone knows this is a joke, right? I’m not convinced all commentors do….

Not everyone that lives in the suburbs have to commute far.
My wife commutes about 3 blocks and my kids are with in walking distance of school and I commute between 1 mile and 8 miles depending on the work site.
Frank, its not a non-sequitur at all. It’s called “attention restoration“. That’s one of the benefits of nearby nature. Both italicized phrases are demonstrable benefits of green infra.
HTH.

…and the study mentioned in the Gupta piece is from the Kaplans, who I’ve had the good fortune to meet in grad school, and whose work is the driver of attention restoration. Brilliant couple.

This has to be one of the funniest things I’ve seen from the Onion in a while.
I agree. I commute from the city to the suburbs (because many people moving to the city, like myself, don’t have kids, and therefore schools are downsizing or terribly bureaucratic and tend to only hire insiders) and it drives me nuts. In the context of this article, I consider both cities though. A suburban city is nonetheless a city, especially I believe in the context of this article.
The city is exceptionally noisy, and the city center exceptionally crowded. I dream of the days I lived in solitude in national parks. Now, I’m packed into a dense neighborhood, and my noisy neighbors, particularly those upstairs who wear high heels on hardwood, drive me nuts.
I agree. That’s precisely why I moved to a suburb last year before moving to a different city. I lived half a mile from work and a few blocks from a grocery store. I drive more living in the city than I did living in the burbs.
And the attention restoration is temporary for one must soon return to a built environment and all its stressors. I’m with you on the benefits of nearby nature, but cities (and suburbs) are incompatible with the type of nature needed to maintain a healthy lifestyle in the context of the study posted. There is generally too much pollution (mainly noise) and too many crowds in city parks to be of real help.
Frank put his finger on a huge issue. That dog-gone free market reacts to reality — even without government subsidies. Suburbs are no longer feeding into the city center. Instead suburbs are job centers themselves. Wow, that blows all those planner computer models, but since they don’t believe in revealed preferences, they will continue to advocate for transit to downtown for decades.
When the planners finally create new computer models that incorporate jobs in the suburbs while overtly declaring they ignore revealed preferences, then that evil free market might well have already adjusted, decades ahead of the planners.

Physiologically, the findings of ART at this time are that one tree in leaf is sufficient to restore attention.

Not even wrong. Thaaaaanks!

THWM: So what Randal O’Toole writes is less credible than The Onion.
