Illinois is working to replace 250 street lights in Lincoln. The
lights are being switched from the sodium vapor, mercury vapor and
metal halide street lights to LED (light-emitting diode) lights.
Ameren says these lights will be brighter and provide more natural
light while saving the city money on electric usage. The ongoing
work is expected to be completed by June 15th.

Bradley
Wiggins in action during his UCI world hour record attempt, in which
he succeeded by covering 54.526 km in the London Olympic velodrome
to smash the mark set by fellow Briton Alex Dowsett. Wiggins -- who
undertook six weeks of intensive training -- pedalled his way into
the history books by destroying the 52.937 km mark set by Dowsett in
Manchester. He covered 219 laps in 60 agonising minutes, maintaining
his record-setting pace despite concerns about the slight slowing
effect of high air pressure.
