in 1983, [Steve Roberts] packed up a Tandy 100 laptop and a 5-watt solar panel, fleeing suburbia on his recumbent bicycle on what would become a 17,000 mile journey that forever cemented his place in the geek pantheon…not just as a technology hacker, but as one of the preeminent “life hackers,” pursuing his own dreams on his own terms and inspiring others to do the same.
In this 1989 video, recently unearthed by Hack a Day, [Roberts] reflects on the first 16,000 miles of his voyage, detailing some of the technology that went into his then-current ride, the Winnebiko II.…

E-bike across Canada for $10
[Justin Lemire-Elmore] spent one month riding his electric bike across Canada last summer. He made the journey from Vancouver to Halifax in 30 days using a mere $10 worth of electricity to recharge his bike. He put together a rather bizarre looking semi-recumbent bicycle to hold all of his gear. The motor controller, charge controller, battery packs, and lighting system were all his own design. He has a captivating 2 hour presentation embedded below in which he describes all the problems he had with his equipment during the trip as well as all the great experiences the journey offered.

Livestation | Watch Live Television Online.
I just heard about this today and found it interesting. I downloaded it and it works well. I can get Fox 11 from Los Angeles on it. I watched Good Day LA today, which reminds me of home. Being in Seattle now I don't get to watch the LA news personalities anymore. It was cool to see them. Anyhow, I'd like to see more channels come in like NBC and CBS.

Everyday Routine For You to Boost Your Exercise Program
1. When you arrive at work, park your car further away from your entrance – same applies when you go shopping too.
Also, when at work, try to use the stair case rather than the elevator. Just start with one flight of stairs and
then build your stamina up.
2. If you go to work on foot, try thinking of ways to make your journey a little longer. One Proactol customer gets off
