Google Books has scanned over 10% of all books ever published. As part of the effort they created a database in which the occurance of word or phrases can be compared. The pictures shows one of the more interesting ones, but try it out yourself. Also see here for some more ideas: http://apps.ycombinator.com/item?id=2013346

Glögg

Sun, 21 Nov 2010 21:17:20 -0800

I know it is only the end of November, but I couldn't resist when I found this in the cupboard: Swedish glögg

I knew it would pay off to buy a couple of extra last year since the store I bought it from no longer sells it.

Steve Godbey will represent the team at the Louisville's USGP Cyclocross Race. Perhaps a test race for 2013?

Fame and glory: Team CFW is on Facebook

Mon, 18 Oct 2010 17:33:00 -0700

I have been wanting to do an xtranormal video for a long time but hasn't had a chance until now. Thought it was a perfect opportunity to introduce Team CFW's new Facebook page. Enjoy!

I have a new favorite statement that can be applied to most arguments. It is commonly used silently by politicians and business men but rarely expressed out load as clearly as this:

"Like most things, this matter is probably a much more complicated one than it appears on the surface, but I intend to ignore all the “facts” or “reasons” why this might be the case and instead focus on the points that are easy to think of and support my viewpoint."

UCI & press ethics

Sun, 03 Oct 2010 08:06:00 -0700

The inner ring blog points out that UCI secretly changed a press release about the Contador case after it was released to correct errors. See here for the story: http://theinnerring.blogspot.com/2010/10/spot-difference-uci-re-writing-histo...

I do think it is a good thing to correct errors, but not to go back and change original documents without changing the date or clearly point out the issue

Update: I do change my blog postings occasionally as well, but never the facts

World Championship - Final kilometers

Sat, 02 Oct 2010 09:02:00 -0700

Great video final sprint of the Women's road race: Link. Swedish cyclist Emma Johansson finishes 3rd!! I'm a bit partial on this but I disagree with the race officials decision that Vos did not deviate from her line. It surely looked like she squeezed Johansson in to the barriers.

Update: The video didn't work so see this link above instead

US Pro Road Championship

Mon, 20 Sep 2010 19:13:24 -0700

Think's it's a shame that cycling championship races are not broadcasted better. A live video feed on the internet that didn't work + random twitter feeds? Seriously!? I get it - cycling in the US is not that popular compared to other sports, but I think the organizers, teams, sponsors, etc. should at least do something to make it easier to follow. With that said, congratulations to 21 year old Ben King for winning the US Pro RR jersey with an impressive solo win against pros like Hincapie. Also, great race by local pro Jake Rytlewski who finished 12th
