program repeatedly remarked about the success of this implemented idea for transporting people in a safe way from one area of the city to another. In 2013, one read in “The Wall Street Journal’s” May 28 edition about a new bicycle “ride and share” program established by New York City officials touted to be the first transportation innovation in this city in 75 years. This program offers designated bicycles to rent that are provided for public use by private investors in the program. Narrow and possibly dangerous bicycle lanes have been established on motorized vehicle roadways throughout New York City for this “innovative” transportation initiative. The cost to use a “city” bicycle, if an annual member, is $95 a year. This fee allows the bicyclist the use of a city bicycle for forty five minute intervals at a time. Others using the bicycles pay a $9.95 daily fee or a $25 weekly fee. One does not know if a fine is levied against annual members if the bicycle is not returned to a station within forty five minutes. As one can clearly note in comparing the two bicycle programs, the New York City program is profit oriented, elicits safety concerns, and is designed to confuse to a degree those who wish to participate in this “ride and share” bicycle program. On the other hand, Bogota, Colombia’s bicycle program was designed to help and assist the city’s residents as their program was financed through business and public taxes costing bicycle riders no additional money. Also, the Bogota program encouraged the private and individual ownership of a bicycle likely leading to less “wear and tear” on the apparatus resulting in less product waste.
In March, spouse, daughter, son, and I vacationed at a renowned seaside resort. As this time of year was considered to be “off season”, spouse and I received a good discounted hotel rate. Upon arrival at the hotel and at check in, we were given our room assignments. Daughter and son were assigned to an ocean front room while spouse and I were assigned to a parking lot view room. Needless to say, I was aggravated at the hotel’s “trouble making” attempts to cause consternation within our family. At that point spouse and I decided that most all of our meals would be purchased outside of the premises of the hotel. We also vowed never to return to this resort.
After vacation, I began to search for other historical information on the internet that could be possibly related to government approved abortion. The following is an excerpt of some very basic information and odd coincidences that I had uncovered regarding abortion approval and historical events. I immediately added this information to the website to hopefully pique the interest of historians into examining more closely the issue of abortion and its interrelatedness with history, thus relieving me of some of the responsibility of this massive project. Shown below are excerpts of a rudimentary “Analysis” added to the website on April 27. The author has made a few current changes shown with parentheses.
