Cyclists spin wheels at Bay Bridge bike path wait Ever since the Bay Bridge’s bike path opened two years ago, a few days after the first cars crossed the new east span, bicyclists have been waiting, mostly patiently, to pedal to Yerba Buena and Treasure islands. [...] they’ve had to halt at a white metal railing placed across the path just past the bridge’s tower, turn their bikes around and ride back to Oakland — even though Yerba Buena Island sits a tantalizing 568 yards away.

In their natural form, cranberries are quite healthy, full of vitamin C and fiber and packing just 4 grams of sugar per cup. [...] they only become nutritionally worrying when they get doused with sugar around the holidays. [...] instead of heading down the canned food aisle, pop over to the produce section (you're going there to buy potatoes and green beans, anyway, right?) and pick up a bag of fresh cranberries. For extra flavor and natural sweetness, I sometimes add orange zest or segments to my cranberry sauce, as well as a vanilla bean.

[...] sitting in the fifth spot of the six AFC playoff teams, are the Oakland Raiders. Perhaps the biggest surprise in the NFL right now. “Nothing wrong with paying attention,” head coach Jack Del Rio said. Paying attention: to details, to coaching, to work, to game preparation, to weakness and — yes — to newfound success.

Carr called it “dad strength.” Crabtree brings experience... Читать дальше...
