Meet The Future Attack Dogs Of America
by Mike Hsu
posted Sep 7 2012 9:18AM
The Department Of Defense has been working on what they call "The Cheetah Robot" for "Emergency responses, Humanitarian efforts, and other defense missions." They are now able to make it run faster than the World's Fastest Man, Usain Bolt, reaching a speed of a little over 28 MPH. Right.... This is what I'm envisioning for this particular form of evil, just because I'm a paranoid son of a bitch. All this thing needs is a giant metallic head with titanium jaws and serrated teeth. Add glowing red Terminator eyes and you have the perfect cold, cruel, unstoppable attack dog to be sicked on dissenters of the current regime. Able to destroy protests in a matter of minutes. We will sell millions of these to Dictators all over the world. Vladimir Putin will come up with the Russian version but it will have a grenade launcher. The Chinese will advance it by giving it a taste sensor for blood.
We will start seeing them at Occupy protests and Political conventions. Soon after that they will be unleashed on the streets of America's cities to patrol for crime and dissent. At first they will be controlled by special technician/Judges from a bunker who will be able to review laws and expedite executions, tearing "perpetrators" to pieces and leaving piles of flesh and bone to remind the public who is Boss. Eventually, they will be programmed to perform these functions on their own.
The only positive I see coming out of this is their use to quell the impending Zombie Apocalypse.

Prince Charles to host Kindertransport reception
The Association of Jewish Refugees (AJR) is delighted to announce that His Royal Highness The Prince of Wales has kindly offered to host a lunchtime reception for the Kindertransport at St James's Palace on Monday 24 June as part of a series of events this year to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the Kindertransport.
The reception will take place the day after the 75th anniversary reunion at JFS when the actress Maureen Lipman, who starred in The Pianist, and the former Foreign Secretary the Rt Hon David Miliband MP, whose father was a refugee from Nazi oppression, will be the guest speakers. As part of the proceedings, JFS pupils will be performing a re-enactment of the debate in the House of Commons that precipitated the creation of the Kindertransport and the JFS choir will be singing a selection of evocative songs.
Rabbi Jonathan Wittenberg, whose grandfather Dr Georg Salzberger was the Rabbi of the Westend Synagogue in Frankfurt am Main, the interior of which was destroyed on Kristallnacht, will lead a service of remembrance and there will be the opportunity to view the new exhibition on the Kindertransport that the Wiener Library is curating. Above all there will be a unique opportunity for Kinder to socialise and renew acquaintances.
The AJR is also encouraging the children and grandchildren of Kinder to come along to another special reception at the Wiener Library between 6:30pm-9:30pm on Monday 24 June for the Second and Third Generations. The focus of this event will be how their parents and grandparents got here, where they came from and the different ways they travelled and arrived. There will be notable guest speakers, time to socialise and network, eat, drink and to meet old and make new friends. Please rsvp and direct any queries to firstname.lastname@example.com or visit the organisers' websites www.secondgeneration.org.uk and www.kindertransport.org
A symposium on the Kindertransport, being organised by the Leo Baeck Institute London (LBI) in cooperation with the German Historical Institute London (GHIL), the Research Centre for German and Austrian Exile Studies and with Aberystwyth University (School of European Languages), will be held on Tuesday 25 June at the GHIL.
On Wednesday 20 November, the AJR is organising, with the help of Lord (Alf) Dubs, a special Tea in the House of Parliament to mark the debate held there on 21 November 1938 which paved the way for the arrival of the Kindertransport. To round off the year, World Jewish Relief, in conjunction with the AJR, will be arranging a memorial service at Liverpool Street Station on Sunday 1 December, which recalls the arrival 75 years to the day of the first transport of children.
Announcing these special events, AJR-Kindertransport Chairman, Sir Erich Reich said: "It is a great honour to be invited by His Royal Highness and a wonderful recognition of the high esteem in which he holds the Kinder. The reception at St James's Palace will be part of an historic three days of events for the Kinder and our families from around the world to socialise, renew acquaintances and share their experiences.
I look forward to meeting Kinder and their families at all these very special occasions as we commemorate one of the greatest rescue missions of the 20th century, give thanks to the British government and help create the legacy of the Kindertransport."
People interested in attending any of these events are asked to contact the AJR on 020 8385 3070 or by emailing email@example.com

"Mexico Stop Over"
We enjoyed being the only guest in our area. They did not have the room that we requested upon arrival. Went for the all-inclusive package and found that we didm;t need it as we were not there long enough to enjoy it.검증된 Hotels.com 숙박객 이용 후기
"Tropical Mexican Hotel"
We had an all inclusive package. The food and wait staff were excellent. We were busy outside the hotel, but they have many activities including a pretty good fitness room and a hard surface tennis court. The pools were heated and as per current practices 4'6" deep. Lovely tropical landscaping and a pretty beach on Banderas Bay.검증된 Expedia 이용 후기
"Very disappointed...."
The room had a lot of issues: the tub was broke, the safe didn't work, the blanket had holes and was dirty. The hotel had an ordor, to hide the smoke smell. The room was not what I expected based on the pictures on the their website. The manager didn't speak English which caused an communication barrier. Overall this hotel is not a 4.4 but more like […] a 2.5 (that's being nice!) 더 보기검증된 Expedia 이용 후기
"May go Back"
We went for total relaxation and the hotel completely provided it. You could do nothing and sit by the pool everyday, surf all day, venture outside the hotel although most activities are 30 minutes away. Overall experience was great, we have stayed in a lot better rooms as they are very outdated, bathroom amenities below par, rooms have absolutely no […] view unless you upgrade upon arrival to 1 of the 4 suites at the beach side of the hotel. If you spend a lot of time in your room I would not recommend this hotel. It was perfect for us as we spent 90% of our time at the pool area. Food overall is great for dinner and there was a new menu each of our 7 nights. (Lobster every night as a side or main meal; order two for yourself if you want) It was disappointing that the Royal side of the hotel closed the bar at 11pm and we were forced to go to the sister hotel if we wanted more drinks of which is very loud and annoying compared to the Royal side. (The group we met there we played cards each night and wanted to stay poolside with service later than 11pm without having to go next door for drinks) Pool side music was pretty bad remixes and never seemed to change. Overall good mix of couples, a lot of great Canadians, and not many locals for the weekends. Stocking of bars was not well planned by the hotel as each day they ran out of beers offered in cans, mint for mojitos, and hard alcohol. Pool was clean, but no outdoor hot tub. 더 보기검증된 Expedia 이용 후기
"Not very satisfied"
It was ok. But I expected a little more efficiency.Everybody very kind, but not very efficient.The meals very limited except the breakfast. My room looked old without any maintenace. because the shower tube was falling. My son¨s room had problems with the shower, they had no water most of the times. the pillows smell very bad (humidity)검증된 Hotels.com 숙박객 이용 후기
A good choice if one is looking to relax and get away. The pool was soothing, the drinks cold and the staff friendly. No concerns with the Royal Suites at all. Nice connection to the Palladium Family side so that one could go to all the restaurants, pools and bars while also having a space away from the children. Food was nice but not spectacular. October […] as a quiet side with space to breathe while the weekends got crowded. Down side, Sports Bar had limited hours and wasn't showing any NFL games. What? 더 보기검증된 Expedia 이용 후기
"Pure Relaxation - couples only"
There wasn't anything I would add to the experience of staying at the Royal Suites!! This was a very hot and humid time of year and the A/C in the room was a little behind. :-) Other than that - the food was amazing, the service was unmatched! I will return.검증된 Expedia 이용 후기
"Everything you need in one place!"
Although a bit of a drive from the Puerto Vallarta Airport, the Palladium is well worth it. MANY pools, restaurants, beaches, shopping from local vendors... and a lovely expansive room.

"You won't regret it"
My wife and I have been to this resort three times in the last three years. It's a great escape from our everyday lives. Our first visit was for a 10-day honeymoon and our memories from that great experience we had at the resort; from the exceptional service, great food and drink, and excellent facilities; left a lasting impression.

Feces on bathroom wall. Trash containers beyond filthy. No lights in shower. Air conditioner noisy and ceiling fan loose and wobbly. Food mediocre at best.

"Royal Suites...Royal Paradise!"
We spent a week at the Royal Suites and were pampered with luxury and service. The staff was wonderful, always available and attentive to our needs.

"Changed my standrds of a vacation"
We stayed on the Royal Suites side and it has changed my opinion of what a vacation should be. We were treated like royalty! On arrival we went to the wrong lobby to check in and were personally escorted to the correct lobby, greeted with a drink, and explained everything we would need to know. Eddie the bellboy is very sweet and takes your bags to […] the room and you are brought to meet your butler. Both butlers are amazing and would do anything they could for you. Hilda is amazing and even made it possible for me to meet the baby monkey. The bartenders Manuel and Giovanni are just as amazing and make a pool day just that more enjoyable. The palladium side was extremely busy, but you couldn't even tell on the adult side. It was very relaxed and quiet. I especially enjoyed the poolside service. The hotel is out of PV a ways, so if you want to be close to town this isn't the hotel for you. I liked that it was secluded. I like the zoo, but I feel bad for the angry ostrich who doesn't seem to have any grass to eat. The food is good and is a la carte (on the adult side), I believe you can eat on the other side whenever you want, we went to the oriental restaurant and they had the best egg rolls I have ever had. I will go back to this hotel again. I don't think I would like the palladium side, there were alot of people there and I know that heaven is on the other side of the walkway! 더 보기검증된 Expedia 이용 후기
"Not impressed"
Noisy hotel, too many local turist. The beach was no good.검증된 Expedia 이용 후기
"Worst of 6 visits to Mexico"
09/23-09/27. First the Pros - the staff is extremely nice - never felt like we upsetting anyone with any requests. Presentation of the food was very nice. Adults only area was peaceful as it was off season and the pool provided a beautiful view of the ocean and surrounding mountains. Also, our room was spacious and kept clean. Cons - the A/C never could […] make it down to what we set it at. The fridge in the room got the drinks cool at best, never cold. The food was the worst in the 6 visits to Mexican resorts - everything either tasted terrible (the last night we both got sick) or it was coated in globs of cheese. The resort claims to be only 4 yrs old, but maybe they bought it 4 yrs ago - the floors and walls in the exterior areas & pool all look visibly much older than 4 years. The adult side does not have it's own beach as the beach is completely rock and the tide washes up to within 10 ft of the retaining wall so you can't sit in peace on the non-family side. Lastly, they should not state they have a 'zoo'. it's a area for animals that can't be returned to the wild, but for 1 of the 3 enclosures that houses peacocks, rabbits, and a hawk type bird, there is NO way the animals can get out of the rain & mud. they just have to sit there and get soaked. Worse thing, is I guess they let nature keep the rabbit population down, as we walked by as one of the birds was killing a baby bunny rabbit - we heard it screaming, horrible. Room svc took between 25 and 50 minutes. 더 보기검증된 Expedia 이용 후기
"Ideal Honeymoon!!!"
My wife and I recently stayed a week at the Royal Suites for our honeymoon and it surpassed both of our expectations. We were greeted at check-in with an amazing drink, and given a nice little tour of the property before heading to our rooms. The bartenders Manuel and Giovanni are both first class people at the pool bar, and the atmoshpere around the […] pool was both relaxing and beautiful. The butlers at the Royal Suites are fantstic and help you with anything that you can possibly need. The spa service is fantastic and very affordable. The food was good, and at some points great. I would recommend the oriental restaraunt Bambu, the Tempanyaki is amazing! The only times we went to the Palladium side was to eat and swim in the ocean. Make sure you swim in the designated areas however as there are a ton of rocks. Overall, this resort was absolutely perfect for our honeymoon. Quiet, no kids, great service, and an absolutely breathtaking surrounding. We will definetly be back!!! 더 보기검증된 Expedia 이용 후기
"Blown away"
Every thing was just amazing. The hotel staff was very friendly. We were greeted with a cocktail. The view was unforgettable. All of the meals were fantastic, except breakfast buffet was just okay. Rooms were very nice, although the jacuzzi in the room didnt work very well. Nice zoo and garden. No kids which was great. I would definitely recommend this […] hotel to anyone. 더 보기검증된 Expedia 이용 후기
"For what it is and for what rates are, yes, however they need to work on several things"
The Royal suites grounds are very well maintained, the service at the restaurant is very good, the food is also good, except they have only one restaurant and it gets a little old., The butlers at the sections of the resort, which are two buildings are amazing, they are very professional and care for your stay and want to make sure everything is to […] your satisfaction. The food at the other side of the resort, which is the Palladium is actually pretty good, but they have other issues. I guess because the rates are fairly low on the palladium side, the guests i may say were messy and the employees had to work extra hard to keep everything clean. They do however do a great job with their nightly shows and for the most part were entertaining. I guess as long as you go at a slower time of the year,(not like us we went in August), it should be better, i dont think they can handle when they have near maximum capacity. 더 보기검증된 Expedia 이용 후기
"North of PV--GREAT Relaxation destination!"
We stayed on the Adult side of the hotel. VERY quiet and relaxing--perfect. Hector and Mario will take great care of you in the private dining area and the bar tenders by the pool are also wonderful. The other restaurants and property is nice, especially the Italian restaurant. Try the "sexy coffee"....another great luxury. Overall, the Adult side […] was perfect for us. We were treated like family and within a day the entire staff knew our seating, food, and drink preferences. I would stay here again in a heartbeat! 더 보기검증된 Expedia 이용 후기

That remark was echoed by House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi, who said on "Fox News Sunday" the sequester was "a bad idea, all around."
"It is something that is out of the question," Pelosi said.
However the nation arrived at this point, the fact remains that the economy is nearing yet another crisis, Durbin said.
"Sequestration was designed as a budget threat, not as a budget strategy. And I think all of us understand if it goes forward in less than three weeks, it's going to have a dramatic, negative impact on many agencies, equally important to the economy," said Durbin.

Originally: ASIA Network
Created on June 18, 2001 at the Fondation Maison des Sciences de lHomme (FMSH), the Asia Network was born from an initiative taken by researchers and supported by the Ministry of National Education, Higher Learning and Research (MEN-ESR), the National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS), the National Political Science Foundation (FNSP), and the Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales (EHESS).
Today, it has a little more than 1,500 members of which 1,400 are Francophone researchers and teachers including doctoral candidates in the social sciences and some one hundred experts with professional ties to the geo-cultural areas of Asia and Oceania, from Iran to the Pacific islands.
The initiators of the Asia Network set four main objectives:
- to assess and bring together the available resources in the social and human sciences in order to identify any shortcomings, but mainly to be in a position to mobilize them as well as ensure greater visibility and recognition of researchers work;
- to create conditions allowing them to work together on problems that are no longer restricted to only one country, one language, or one single culture but which now affect all or an entire portion of the Asian continent;
- to spark interest in and curiosity about Asia from specialists from other regions or other disciplines;
- to build a firmly structured Francophone and multilingual knowledge pole for cooperating on equal footing with other poles of the same nature.
The website, which is updated daily, provides information about the activities of various research, teaching, and assessment structures as well as a database in the social and human sciences on Asia.
From the Asia Network to IMASIA
The CNRS, a player in the Asia Network, created on March 1, 2006 an independent service unit called the Asia Network (UPS 2999), a forerunner of the Institute of Asian Worlds (IMASIA), which is housed by the FMSH.
This service unit is led by Jean-François Sabouret, who is also responsible for the Asia network.
IMASIA is widely recognized for the diversity of its: approaches, disciplines, research areas, and affiliate organizations.
This diversity has made debates and reflection lively and multifaceted. The comparative approach in studies on or with Asia has been greatly stimulated and adopted by a significant number of researchers or teams.
In addition, in-depth research focusing on one precise question specific to one country continues to be a privileged area.
Membership and participation in the network project has been very high among almost all affiliated researchers. This confirms that cooperation efforts are seen as interesting and useful by all those involved.
Moreover, meetings with the business world, political and social actors, and reinforced exchanges with Europe all while promoting knowledge diffusion in several languages make the Asia Network IMASIA a forward looking and constructive structure at the service of studies and research on Asia.
Lastly, the role of the FMSH, which began hosting the Asia Network in 2001, continues to increase during the current growth phase thanks to the additional means it brought to the network: larger office space and increased resources, which will facilitate implementing the objectives set.

Rated 5 out of 5 by 2
Rated 5 out of 5 by GoalkeeperReviewGuy Best of the best!
This glove, by far is the BEST I have worn.
The latex is unmatched to any other on the market. *I've played with them in cold, dry and wet conditions. This glove held up! The latex stays sticky, meaning the ball will never leave your hand. The only downside to the glove is that the fingerspines were not removable.
If you like a snug fit, a great wristsrap and the piece of mind knowing you can depend on a great glove.
This is the glove for you.
* Overtime the glove does tear, but not as most gloves do. Minimal tearing.
December 25, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by AlpacaLlama Awesome Gloves
The gloves are great. I've only played a few games with them so far, but I'm definitely sold. They are very tacky right from the start (you don't even have to wet them). Mine came with glove wash, which is just a bonus. The only downside I've found is that one of the fingersaves slid down a little. It was easy to fix (just push it back up). If you're still reading you're obviously into the gloves. So just get them. They have a snug fit, great wrist strip, are made of good material, and are very tacky. 10/10 Would buy again.

The program provides students the opportunity to create and exhibit web-based presentations of their work, and promotes civic participation among students, their parents, and members of the community.
The ABC Project and Student Skills
The ABC Project helps students learn how to:
- Work collaboratively to address a problem in their community
- Participate in complex analysis and social problem-solving
- Present their projects to local experts and policymakers
The ABC Project and the Common Core State Standards

MOUNT PLEASANT – Upper Iowa University scored twice in the first ten minutes and stayed in control the rest of the way as it defeated Iowa Wesleyan College 5-0 in a men's soccer match Wednesday afternoon at East Lake Park.
The visiting Peacocks owned play almost from the start and dominated the non-conference match, sending the Tigers to their eighth straight defeat. IWC fell to 2-12-1 overall, while Upper Iowa, a member of NCAA Division II, improved to 8-6-2.
Upper Iowa scored three times in the first half, starting with a goal by Alan Martinez just 3:48 into the match. Derek Oelmann then scored his first of two goals on the day, coming less than six minutes after the Peacocks' opening goal.
Frank Atchison scored in the 37th minute to make it 3-0 before halftime. The Peacocks then scored again quickly after halftime after Tony Varnava converted on a rebound to make it 4-0. Oelmann added his second goal in the 57th minute for the final score of the match.
UIU outshot the Tigers 23-8 in the match and posted a 12-4 advantage in shots on goal. Jordan Bell made four saves for the shutout for Upper Iowa, while Troy Osborne (Jr.-Sydney, Australia) had seven saves for the Tigers.
Pierre Bruggeman (So.-Kortenberg, Belgium) led Wesleyan offensively with three shots taken, two on goal. Bruggeman and Walton Ponce (So.-Muscatine, Iowa) had the best chances to score for the Tigers, as both missed shots just in front of the Upper Iowa goal in the final 30 minutes.
The Iowa Wesleyan soccer teams will wrap up their seasons Saturday in Midwest Collegiate Conference matches at home against Viterbo (Wis.) University. The women's match will begin at 1 p.m., with the men's match to follow at approximately 3 p.m. Senior Day activities for both the men's and women's teams will take place in between games prior to the start of the men's match.

Thursday's Letters to the Editor
Published: Wednesday, December 12, 2012 at 7:00 p.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, December 12, 2012 at 6:20 p.m.
Trains vs. bikes
EDITOR: It seems a sham — sorry, shame — that another train car has priority over roadside bicycle safety improvements ("County shifts $6.6 million to SMART," Tuesday). Are we not reading every week of a bicyclist being injured or worse? Are we not promoting Sonoma County as a world-class bicycle destination?
Determining priorities is both an art and science. Expert testimony, consultant recommendations, circumstances and personal bias do not, and in this case did not, add up to common sense. The negative publicity this decision will surely provoke should have been cause to abandon the suggestion.
I truly appreciate those in public service, a difficult job it is acting on behalf of constituents. But I, for one, cannot understand or explain the romance this train seems to have placed on our elected officials and the to-hell-with-everything-else priority it has become.
Modern marriage
EDITOR: The U.S. Supreme Court has agreed to consider the issue of gay marriage. I believe it's time to consider this controversy in a modern context. Everyone should be free to legally marry anyone they want. Marriage is simply a contract between two people to share their lives. Of course, there are significant religious and financial considerations.
Religious organizations opposed to gay marriage should not be forced to marry same-sex couples. It's their right to conduct their religion however they choose, within the law. Same-sex couples can have a civil marriage or find a religion that will marry them.
Regarding finances, heterosexual couples get a tax break and other advantages. I believe there are significant cultural and biological reasons for this. Humans are compelled to reproduce or the species will disappear. Couples should be awarded tax breaks and other advantages to have children, not simply for being married. This benefit should apply to all couples, gay or not.
While I'm on the subject of religion and taxes, I'd also like to propose that religious organizations be treated the same as other institutions regarding taxes. A significant percentage of Americans have no religious affiliation. They shouldn't have to support religions financially.
Bowled over
EDITOR: I really like football. My wife wonders what I will do when the season is over. But how many bowl games do we need? Two years ago, I wrote about the college bowl games reported in The Press Democrat. On Dec. 3, we had a similar report, this time with an article from the Kansas City Star sharing my sentiments ("Sorry list of match ups in BCS bowls").
Two years ago, there were 11 teams with 6-6 records. This year, there are 12 teams, and one has a 6-7 record. Perhaps the excitement comes from the names of the games. We will be cheering at the Beef 'O'Brady's Bowl, the Meineke Car Care Bowl, the Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl, the GoDaddy.com Bowl and other inspiring supporters of sportsmanship.
My disappointment is that my prediction did not come true — the Kohlers Plumbing Bowl and the Cialis Erectile Dysfunction Bowl did not make this year's cut. On the serious side, it is clear that this is not about quality and sportsmanship but only about commercialism. This commercial tradition does not serve the ideals of college football.
However, I wish all of the players well. l think they deserve better.
Why we need change
EDITOR: Former Santa Rosa City Councilwoman Jane Bender thinks a "home run" was hit based on the votes for mayor and vice mayor of Santa Rosa last week ("Crossing the aisle," Letters, Saturday).
Here is an opinion from somebody not involved with Santa Rosa politics, but I do observe what is going on.
Bender, like several current members of the council, seems attracted to back-door deals, junior high school popularity contests and I'll-scratch-your-back-you-scratch-mine while following a partisan agenda. This is why I voted for districting when it comes to how we vote for the City Council.
So we have a greenhorn, inexperienced, untried brand new councilwoman who claims to be the wise woman in how the City Council should run. Then she puts herself forward as vice mayor and gets elected. Talk about back-door deals. A home run for the exact type of council we need to get rid of.
Santa Rosa
Safe driving
EDITOR: In response to Wes Brubacher's letter ("Two-footed driving," Saturday), I couldn't agree more. I was introduced to the philosophy some 52 years ago when living in the San Jose area. It took two or three days to get comfortable with the process, but I'm certain that, over the years, it has kept me safe from rear-enders on more than one occasion. It became a reflex-action that everyone should attempt to use.

Review: Hutchinson Atom Galactik
Two years ago, I had the opportunity to review the Hutchinson Atom tubeless tire. In that review, I noted that as a dedicated racing tire, the Atom " just isn't providing the level comfort I am looking for."
Now the next generation of the Atom is here, the Atom Galactik. I was fortunate to receive a pair for review at Interbike, and I have since put hundreds of miles on them in Colorado and even in the hills of north Georgia. So far, I am impressed.
The Atom Galactik Road Tubeless tire sheds 25 grams a piece from the previous version that it supplants. And while I am a committed weight weenie, I am also a rational member of the reality based community. Therefore, I would be lying if I told you I could instantly feel the difference in weight between the old Atoms and the Galactiks; I can't. This is especially true since I had previously mounted the stunningly light IRC Formula Pro Tubeless Light which claims to come in at 240 grams vs. the Galactik's 245. Unlike machined parts, tires are soft goods subject to greater manufacturing tolerances, so the difference here is negligible.
But in terms of riding characteristics, the Galactiks are very different from the IRC offering and even the previous Atom. The original Atoms felt so firm that they were almost rigid. It was as if they beefed up the casing while reducing the diameter of the Fusion 3s. In contrast, the Atom Galactiks feel somewhat more supple than the original Atoms. They accelerate well, grip nicely in corners, and tolerate road imperfections to a much greater degree than the old Atoms.
But at the same time, they still seem to retain the narrow profile, which appears much more like a 21c tire than the labeled 23c. The IRC counterpart appears to be slightly wider and thinner, while offering an even more compliant ride, but the IRC it is a very thin tire and it appears to wear faster than the Galactiks.
The old Atoms were like a sports car that has bald tires and was lowered. It was great for racing, but not practical for luxury touring. The Atom Galactik is more like having a Porsche. It meets the needs of racers while being an acceptable tire for long distance riding.
With greater comfort and less weight, I have to say that I like the direction that Hutchinson is taking with their road tubeless line. Since the invention of road tubeless, Hutchinson has been the clear leader in the field. And as the peleton of road tubeless tires grows larger, the Galactik appears to be Hutchinson's statement that they intend to lead the pack and try to break away.
12 comments:
OK, I'm ready to start running new 28c road tubeless tires from Hutchinson. Where are they,when can I buy some?
T. Guyvery nice blog abt tyres love this tubeless tyres how can i buy it?
Tires Financing | luxury Car RimsThanks for the great info! I appreciate your comments regarding tires abbotsford.
ReplyDelete- Replies
"Wider and thinner", Jason? Could you go into the differences between the Hutchinson Atom Galactic and the IRC Formula Pro Tubeless Light from your June 23, 2012 test? Is the IRC tire marked "Made in Japan" in raised letters, and is the Hutch. marked "Made in France" in similar raised letters? Can you see any difference between the rubber bead seat areas of the tires, maybe the Hutch. has a sharper, more defined hook shape molded in? Does the IRC have a carbon fiber bead same as Hutch. or does IRC use something else?
I was really wondering if the IRC is actually made in Japan or is it a rebranded Hutch. made in France.
It seems that the Roubaix Road Tubeless from Specialized is "Made in Japan" and it seems to have a different bead seat than the Hutch. I wonder if the Spec. is a rebranded IRC? It is labeled 700x23/25c, and is a bit wider than a Hutch. Intensive, which we know runs somewhat narrower than a true 25c. I'm finding the Spec. Roubaix wears a lot quicker than the harder thermoplastic rubber in the Intensive, and I need to run a little higher pressure in the Roubaix than the Intensive. When I wear out one of them I'll do some destructive testing to see what the bead is made of.You mentioned American Classic Tubeless road wheelsets. Just took delivery of Easton EA90 Tubeless disc brake wheelset, 1620g pr without discs, straight pull spokes, sealed hub no rim tape.
I am doing gravel road race anti-epic, what tires are good tubeless for that do you think?

The first game saw the Lady Hawks score in four of the five innings, including seven runs through the first three innings.
Kristen Little pitched another complete game shutout, throwing five innings of two-hit ball while striking out seven.
Shorter (7-1) plated a pair in the first on a two run single from Bre Johnson, scoring Kayla Cooper and Jackie Castaneda.
Cooper added a three run double in the third inning, scoring Kendall Johnson, Janell Echols, and Sarah Corn.
Three more runs scored in the fifth inning, with Kendall Johnson connecting on a two-run home run to end the scoring.
Little struck out the first two batters of the fifth, before getting the final out on a pop fly to first base.
The game was called after five innings by the run rule, the second time Shorter has accomplished the feat in two days.
The second game saw the Lady Hawks defeat Indianapolis, 4-2, the seventh-ranked team according to the National Fastpitch Coaches Association Division II Top 25 poll.
Indianapolis had defeated No. 1 Valdosta State — the defending national champions — on Feb. 16 as part of the Charger Chillout, 3-2.
Indianapolis scored in the first on a bases loaded walk to take the early 1-0 lead.
The Lady Hawks responded with a pair of runs in the second, with Corn driving in Amanda Dailey and former Rockmart star Kellee Stone with a single.
Corn picked up her third RBI in the third inning, singling in Castaneda.
Cooper hit a sacrifice fly in the fourth to score Kendall Johnson to make the game 4-1.
Indianapolis got one more run on a bases loaded single in the sixth, with one out.
Christina Ezell was able to get a strike out and a pop fly to end the inning with no more runs scoring.
Ezell went all seven innings on the mound, surrendering eight hits but striking out 13 batters.
Shorter got four runs on seven hits – with Corn and Kendall Johnson getting two hits apiece.
Indianapolis got four hits from Erika Goodwin and three from Taylor Russell, but was only able to drive in two runs while leaving 12 runners on base.
Shorter will finish play from UNA tomorrow with another pair of games. The Lady Hawks will play Drury at 11 am, while finishing off the day playing Missouri-St. Louis at 3 pm.
In other action Saturday:
MEN: Berry 13, Augusta 6
In a battle of Vikings, Berry men's lacrosse prevailed, 13-6, against Augustana (Ill.) on Saturday afternoon at Ford Field. BC scored nine of the game's final 11 goals.
BC stretched its record to 2-0 for the first time in the program's three-year history. Berry led at halftime, 5-4.
Max Smerka's three-goal, one-assist performance included a behind-the-back shot with 11:23 left the fourth quarter, putting Berry up by a 10-4 margin.
WOMEN: Berry 14,
Birmingham-Southern 13
Kristan Dziurzynski scored seven goals and had one one assist as Berry College defeated Birrmingham-Southern, 14-13, on Saturday. The match was the first Southern Athletic Association game for both teams.
Berry improved to 2-0 and 1-0 in the SAA. BSC is now 1-1 and 0-1.
Rachel Aiken (3) and Blair Shupenko (2) also had multi-goal performances. Elizabeth Flatt and Claire Rosenberg each claimed a goal and an assist apiece.
Berry trailed, 10-6, at halftime. The Vikes gained momentum with four unanswered goals to tie the game.
Berry led by three points with less than two minutes left before allowing two Panther goals. Yet the Vikings won the game's last draw and ran out the clock in the last minute.
Berry hosts Ferrum College next Thursday at 2 p.m.

DriClime® Moisture Management Technology is a family of uniquely plaited bi-component knit fabrics engineered to mechanically draw moisture away from your skin to keep you dry, warm and comfortable.
The key to DriClime is 3-Dimensional Wicking. As moisture moves from the inner fabric touching your skin to the outer fabric, it spreads out across the outer fabric to speed the drying process. DriClime never stops working; it continually passes moisture through to the outer surface for fast evaporation. It is not a finish that washes or wears out; it works forever.
DriClime technology is available in a wide range of products: shelled microclimate layers, base layer, gloves, sleeping bags and backpacks.

text: New Orleans' City Council meets today and will discuss Entergy's response to Hurricane Isaac and call for an investigation into the power company's work to reconnect its customers. There's also a corporate shakeup underway at Entergy, including the reassignment of the president of one of the corporation's Louisiana power utilities. A lot of the criticism of Entergy focused on how the company handled the logistics of thousands of out-of-state power crews sent here to help. As an example, Jefferson Councilman Chris Roberts says there was a group from Massachusetts that ended up parked at a Westbank shopping center for 12 hours while awaiting orders. "When they finally got their assignment, their assignment was on Bluebonnet in Baton Rouge," Roberts said. Stories like that had Jefferson Parish President John Young suggesting that heads should roll. "I'd be asking a lot of tough questions to my subordinates as to why action hasn't been taken," Young said during a news conference after the storm. "If I was the board of Entergy, I'd be asking the CEO for his resignation." The board didn't do that, but Entergy Corporation announced that Entergy Louisiana/Gulf States president Bill Mohl is being reassigned. He will take over the company's wholesale commodities division, based in White Plains, New York, when that division's current president retires in January. The statement, including the announcement of Entergy Corporation's chairman and CEO J. Wayne Leonard's retirement after 13 years on the job, makes no mention of the hurricane recovery.

It was definitely tough. I think we were both really nervous in the beginning and then after two games I settled down a little bit and relaxed. Toward the end, Julia brought her game to another level and I was struggling. I'm really happy with my service game at 5-5. I made two aces, which I rarely do, and after that I settled down and it was fine. It was a great atmosphere with the home crowd, although they didn't really know who to cheer for. And the nice thing is with all the injuries that I really appreciate it much more now and I'm really happy about any kind of win. It doesn't matter where or when or which round, so I'm really happy.
Today I think I could read him good. Then I think I put pressure on him and he forced a lot. I was ready for his main spot to be covered. Then, I think he forced a lot and that helped me a lot. It's a great tournament. It's a great spirit. The stadium is beautiful and there's always a good crowd. I like the German crowd. They're into it. So, it's good, it's noisy. It's the kind of stadium I like to play on. I just feel good here.
Halle is one of my favorite places on the tour, and being successful there makes it even more likable. Paris has little to do with Halle or Wimbledon, but looking back I am really disappointed with my match against Tsonga. There are days like that, but fortunately there haven't been so many in my career, and I hope there won't be that many to come. I didn't really expect to necessarily win a lot of titles, and I thought I played well in Rome and Paris, until the match with Tsonga. I now feel that the best time for me is still to come in the second half of the year. It's a very important phase of the year, leading to Wimbledon and the North American swing with the U.S. Open.
It's not the first [and] it's not the last loss in my career against this particular player. I wanted this title so much, so I am disappointed. That's it. That's the way I feel. I don't think it's going take the toll on me in the future because I have been in these particular situations before. So hopefully I can use this next period that is coming up to recover, mentally get motivated and get inspired again to play my best tennis in Wimbledon. I wasn't expecting an easy match for me or for him. I knew that both of us would give everything we got, physically and mentally, in order to win the match.
I think everybody knows in this room that the schedule of yesterday was wrong. That's the real thing. 'The director of the tournament, supervisors, they take a bad position two days ago, because when you make the schedule at 7pm, you know what weather predictions you have for the next days. I cannot play third after a men's and a girl's match when my possible opponent plays second after girls. That's not fair. And today I was playing almost three hours on court, and my opponent was watching the TV in the locker room. The excuse they told me was because Rosol have to play doubles. I am sorry, but that's a joke. You have one more week to play doubles if you want to play doubles. 'Why do you want to protect the player who has to play doubles? So I'm going to write myself in the doubles draw then and I have the priority to play? That's not the right excuse to make a schedule like this.
