nach den neuen Ventilen von Schwalbe #SCV (die sie an der Messe übrigens schon wieder nicht verkauft haben), scheint es jetzt auch endlich wieder einen neuen Rad-Standard zu geben: 750d - und das Ding hat sogar einen Award gewonnen.

Draft #standard IEEE #P7012 , which #Searls has nicknamed "MyTerms" (akin to "Wi-Fi"), is a Draft Standard for Machine Readable Personal Privacy Terms.

"Lay Lady Lay", sometimes rendered "Lay, Lady, Lay", is a #song written by #BobDylan and originally released in 1969 on his #NashvilleSkyline album. Like many of the tracks on the album, Dylan sings the song in a low croon, rather than in the high nasal singing style associated with his earlier (and eventually later) recordings. The song has become a #standard and has been #covered by numerous bands and artists over the years. The song, Dylan's final top 10 hit.
