Welcome to Deerwood!Picture a secluded wooded setting with large green lawns, away from freeway noise yet only 10 minutes from the heart of Eugene. Now taste the pure well water and hear the birds singing high up in the towering oaks and firs. Just another day at Deerwood RV Park. On 10 spacious acres, the sites are nestled among ponds, lawns and ancient trees. If you're quiet you'll spot the Wood Ducks or one of the other furry or feathered residents.
Our Story
In 1997 Mike and Sally Brown, both Eugene natives, purchased a beautiful 10 acre parcel of land that included pastures, ponds, and some of the largest and oldest trees in the region. Their hope was to design and build a modern luxury RV Park with exceptional grounds. Mike, a landscape designer, had been researching the growing RV industry and its new king-sized motorcoaches and 5th wheels. In addition to studying the existing parks, he interviewed RV owners to determine what they expected from RV parks. After years of designing Mike and Sally transformed their 10 acres into a beautiful RV refuge. To this day it remains a rare find, even in today's luxury RV parks.

Unfortunately, when we install JDK on Linux, JavaFX SDK is not included and in fact, Oracle hasn't fully supported JavaFX on Linux and Macintosh. The only platform provided on the Download page is for Windows only. So how do we run JavaFX on Linux?
The answer is by using the Developer Preview of JavaFX 2.1. It seems that Oracle is planning to roll out support for Linux and OSX on the next release of JavaFX. You need to download 2 files, JavaFX SDK and JavaFX Samples (the sample is required to test that our installation is working well).
Once you download the SDK, unpack it and go to the directory created
unzip javafx_sdk-2_1_0-beta-b16-linux-i586-06_mar_2012.zip
cd javafx-sdk2.1.0-beta
Next, extract the JavaFX samples inside the JavaFX SDK directory
unzip javafx_samples-2_1_0-beta-b16-linux-i586-06_mar_2012.zip so the structure of the directory is like this:
javafx-sdk2.1.0-beta/ COPYRIGHT.html README.html THIRDPARTYLICENSEREADME.txt bin/ docs/ javafx-samples-2.1.0-beta/ lib/ rt/ toolsOnce it's done, you can try running the examples provided by executing the .jar files under javafx-samples-2.1.0-beta/ directory. For example, to run the SwingInterop example, run this command:
java -jar SwingInterop.jar
and voila...........
I will write another post shortly after this to add integration to NetBeans so that you can start developing JavaFX-based applications using NetBeans

Hope Lutheran School made a difference in my life! It is so wonderful to be able to pray during class and learn about the love of Jesus as well as academics. I had a firm foundation at Hope and later went on to high school and college. There are caring teachers and small class sizes. Thank you Hope Lutheran School for staying a strong presence in Idaho Falls.

Global Push: Multicontinent Project Assesses Particulate Matter and Birth Weight
Tanya Tillett
Tanya Tillett, MA, of Durham, NC, is a staff writer/editor for EHP. She has been on the EHP staff since 2000 and has represented the journal at national and international conferences.
Maternal exposure to ambient air pollution has been associated with a number of adverse pregnancy outcomes including low birth weight, defined as a full-term infant weighing less than 2,500 g (about 5 lb, 8 oz) at birth. But it's been difficult to translate these findings into health-protective policies because of inconsistencies across studies—something the International Collaboration on Air Pollution and Pregnancy Outcomes (ICAPPO) is working to remedy. This worldwide, multicenter project used a common analysis protocol to derive combined effect estimates of maternal exposure to coarse and fine particulate matter (PM10 and PM2.5, respectively) and to assess differences in how the centers conducted their individual studies [EHP 121(3):367–373; Dadvand et al.].
ICAPPO researchers at 14 centers in 9 countries generated effect estimates for ambient PM10 and PM2.5 in relation to more than 3 million live, singleton, term births. For this analysis, the authors used a meta-analysis approach to synthesize contributing factors such as study setting, availability of air pollutant data, birth data, and maternal socioeconomic status. They estimated combined effects across centers and used meta-regression analysis to determine how each center's particular characteristics and exposure assessment methods influenced differences in effect estimates among centers. All these factors can contribute to variation in results across studies.
Higher maternal exposure to PM10 and PM2.5 was associated with lower birth weight across the study population. The investigators found a positive association between low birth weight and increased PM10 and PM2.5 exposure during the entire pregnancy, as well as a negative association between increased PM10 exposure and term birth weight when all averages were compared.
Differences in average PM2.5 exposure levels and PM2.5/PM10 ratios influenced effect estimate outcomes—centers with higher PM2.5 levels and higher PM2.5/PM10 ratios reported stronger associations with birth weight. These findings could indicate a geographical variation in the association between air pollution and low birth weight. Meta-regression analyses also showed that centers reported stronger associations if they conducted a temporal exposure assessment only (i.e., exposure was determined according to the time period that each woman was pregnant) compared with those that accounted for both spatial and temporal elements of exposure (i.e., exposure was determined by time of pregnancy and where the woman lived).
Although the study does not include direct measurements of personal exposure levels, it does provide a comprehensive estimate of the global effects of maternal exposure to particulate matter on birth weight. This could prove useful for shaping meaningful public health policies regarding air pollution.

I don't want you back
After you have thrown my life off track
You've hurt me really bad
And you threw away all the love we had
You tricked me and don't even care
What you did wasn't fair
Fair to me
I'm glad I got to see
The real you before I made a big mistake
My heart is something I'll never let you take
It could have been yours buy you messed up big time
I refuse to be your dime
The dime you push around
I refuse to be face down on the ground
I refuse to be the girl on the side
I'm not going along for this ride
Maybe when you've changed your ways
Or maybe not because the day you've changed is the day
The day that hell has frozen over and pigs can fly
Why did you have to be that guy
The guy that hurt me the way you did
Just trust me when I say I'll never forgive
Forgive you for the games you play
I have learned my lesson and you have no say
In how I tell your main girl
Shut up and let me give it a whirl

2016 Laguna Seca WorldSBK Review: Looking Back at Laguna, Forward to 2017
Submitted by Kent Brockman on
The WorldSBK season goes on its annual summer break with the championship suddenly poised on a much finer edge than was imaginable just a week ago.
Jonathan Rea's dominance of the current campaign has been almost unparalleled. However, his run of 17 consecutive podium finishes to open the season is now over and suddenly he faces a threat from within for his title defense.

Although Meghan Tweeted a short response last week, the long form appeared in The Daily Beast today. Meghan, who admits to being teased about her weight as a kid, said: I expected substantive criticism from conservative pundits for my views, particularly my recent criticism of Ann Coulter. That is the nature of political discourse, and my intent was to generate discussion about the current problems facing the Republican Party. Unfortunately, even though Ingraham is more than 20 years older than I and has been a political pundit for longer, almost, than I have been alive, she responded in a form that was embarrassing to herself and to any woman listening to her radio program who was not a size 0. In today's society this is, unfortunately, predictable.I mean, she has a point. If Laura Ingraham is so stymied by the criticism of a 24-year-old newbie writer that she has to resort to mocking her accent and her weight, then that is truly embarrassing for Laura Ingraham's skills as a talking head. Meghan then asks: Advertisement Advertisement Why, after all this time and all the progress feminists have made, is weight still such an issue? And in Laura's case, why in the world would a woman raise it?Well, that's easy enough: women are not united. The idea that there is some female solidarity in the world is a false one, as everyone from Laura Ingraham to Phyllis Schlafly to Rian at The Skinny are more than happy to demonstrate. It would be great if it were true but the thing about the patriarchy about which I love to caterwaul is that it doesn't just affect men — either in terms of the opportunities it offers them or in terms of the stereotypes it inculcates in women.Meghan — whose whole point, initially, was that the Republican party needs to do a better job of attracting young people — said on The View: Sponsored And what do young women think when I speak my mind about politics and I want to have a political discussion about the ideological future of the Republican Party and the answer is, "She's fat, she shouldn't have an opinion."Meghan says that the dismissal of her political views because of her supposed weight "infuriates" her, as it does me. Advertisement On her radio program earlier today, Ms. Ingraham offered her a thoughtful analysis along with an obligatory mea culpa:You wanna put yourself out there as someone who's going to redirect the future of the Republican party, and you're going to have to deal with satire. You're gonna have to deal with people teasing. You're gonna have to deal with, you know, sometimes the kitchen gets a little hot! …. You gotta just take a chill pill. … Can I say lighten up or is that offensive too?I mean, on the one hand, I guess it's good that Ingraham, like Ann Coulter, has just admitted that she's a bad comedian rather than a thoughtful political commentator. Now if only Meghan McCain could take on Rush Limbaugh! But, seriously, as a fellow non-size 0 girl myself, I'd rather just repeat Meghan's response to Ingraham and the rest of her body critics: Advertisement Advertisement Kiss my fat ass!The Politics of Size [The Daily Beast] Meghan McCain Tells Laura Ingraham: 'Kiss My Fat Ass!'

|Re: [DISCUSS] specs versioning
|Mon, 11 Dec 2006 21:13:21 GMT
IMHO I like option 3 which is both option 1 and 2. First, I think all SPECs should be versioned independently as not everyone is interested in all the specs. If, for instance, the Tomcat dudes decide to pick up anything we have they would only be interested in a subset and shouldn't be forced to consume the whole Java EE banana. So, in that light I think they should all be versioned separately. We should probably have a separate uber spec project that pulls in a set of versioned specs and releases them as a set so that people that want the whole enchilada can get them. The uber approach would only be compiling a set of released specs (which were released separately. For this proposal...I'd say release them individually and make the uber spec as the next step. IMHO small largely immutable specs make sense to me. On Dec 11, 2006, at 1:13 PM, Kevan Miller wrote: > The versioning policy for our geronimo specs has been floating > around for a while now.

Nembo Super 32: Inverted engine, anyone?
Why would you build a motorcycle that's fitted with a 2000cc three-cylinder engine that's fitted upside down? Yes, that's right – an inverted engine, with the cylinder heads facing the asphalt. 'I've chosen this particular engine architecture for both functional and aesthetic reasons,' says Daniele 'Titus' Sabatini, owner, project leader and chief designer of the Nembo Super 32. 'In current naked sportbikes, the engine is often hidden and in the case of liquid-cooled engines, practically soulless. It pains me to see the engine smothered under frames and plastic components. So, I thought that a good way to use an updated air-cooled engine in a contemporary naked sportbike would be to invert the engine!' he adds.
Sabatini tells us that 'inverted' engines aren't new and that they were used in various combat aircraft in WWII. However, the challenge was to use such an engine in a motorcycle, in a way that would combine form and function and that would keep things interesting.
'I wanted to build a high-performance big-bore motorcycle, which would look 'new' but which would still have a classic and timeless beauty. The bike would have to be built with high quality metal and carbonfibre components and would be very light,' says Sabatini, adding that he wanted to create a bike that looked like a proper motorcycle and not like a manga robot. Ahem.
'Inverting the engine allowed me to achieve these results. The Super 32 is built around the engine, where the engine, by means of a super-compact crankcase that's placed over the cylinders and the heads, works as the chassis, while the heads and cylinders do not participate in structural functions in any way,' he says.
Sabatini claims his naturally aspirated inverted engine – the Super 32 Rovescio – complies with Euro 3 emissions norms and can be built in displacements ranging from 1850cc to 2100cc, with power outputs between 160-250bhp. The engine works as a fully stressed member, but the Super 32 also utilizes steel tube trellis frame components at the front, while the swingarm is made of carbonfibre. The bike's dry weight ranges between 140-155kg, depending on the materials used and options chosen.
'The Nembo Super 32 is at its early stages of development. The first two 1814cc prototypes are scheduled to be track tested in February 2011, after which I'll start producing a small series of Super 32s, fitted with a 1925cc inverted engine,' says Sabatini. 'The bike is handcrafted in Italy by a highly specialized Italian crew and only a fifth of its components (wheels, brakes, forks and tyres) are bits that haven't been designed and built by Nembo,' he adds.
According to its builder, the Super 32 is the only bike in the world fitted with an inverted engine. 'The bike's architecture achieves our main goals of mass centralization, chassis elimination, extreme lightness (considering the use of a large displacement engine), great handling, and beauty,' he says. And why not. We quite agree with most of what Sabatini says, and we think his machine is quite beautiful – not just to look at, but also as in terms of sheer innovation and engineering.
Nembo Super 32: Tech Specs
Front Suspension: 50mm USD fork with dual-rate springs, adjustable preload, rebound and compression damping
Rear Suspension: Air suspension system with adjustable preload and rebound and compression damping
Brakes: Brembo, 320mm discs, four-piston radial-mount calipers (front), single 220mm disc, two-piston caliper (rear)
Engine (prototype): Four-stroke, air/oil-cooled, three-cylinder, 1814cc, SUHC, 2-valves-per-cylinder, 160bhp at 7,000rpm
Engine (production): Four-stroke, air/oil-cooled, three-cylinder, 1925cc/2097cc, SUHC, 2-valves-per-cylinder, 200bhp/250bhp at 7,500rpm/8,000rpm
Transmission: Six-speed

Rocket II: Supercharged 1000bhp Hemi V8-engined trike rocks our world
Tim 'Frogman' Cotterill, metal sculptor, stonemason and landscape gardener by trade, has always had a thing for trikes. He first trike, which he made himself in his hometown (Knighton, Leicestershire in the UK), was fitted with a six-cylinder engine taken off a Honda CBX1000. That was more than 30 years ago, sometime during which period Cotterill migrated from the UK to the US. And for all those years, he kept thinking about what his next trike would be.
Finally, back in 2006, Cotterill found someone who'd be able to translate his dream trike into reality. This was the Blastolene Brothers – Randy Grubb and Michael Leeds – who'd already made a name for themselves in the US for creating some pretty outlandish cars. Cotterill would bankroll it and the Brothers B went on to build the Rocket II, the most gobsmackingly amazing trike we've ever seen.
Everything about the Rocket II is quite over the top, but we'll start with the engine. It's a 7.0-litre Hemi V8, with a BDS 8-71 supercharger bolted on for good measure, which boosts power output to 1,000 horsepower. Then there's that hub-centre steering setup at the front, machined-from-billet front wheel, and a front swingarm that's fabricated from ¼-inch steel plate and which features fully adjustable rosejoints that allow easy adjustment of wheel castor and camber.
The 1,000bhp Hemi V8 drives the Rocket II's rear wheels via a three-speed automatic transmission. It's an unapologetically loud and fast trike that can hit triple-digit speeds in seconds and get up to a top speed of more than 260km/h. With a rider on board, the Rocket II weighs in excess of 1,200 kilos and fuel economy is less than stellar – a stunning 1.2km/l. Then again, you wouldn't build a 1,000-horsepower supercharged V8-engined trike for fuel economy. You'd build one as an ode to sheer excess. And as such, the Rocket II is just brilliant. We love it.

Paris Hilton launches SuperMartXé VIP 125cc motorcycle racing team
After perfumes, clothing and accessories, it's motorcycle racing for 30-year-old Paris Hilton, who launched her own motorcycle racing team in Madrid yesterday. The 'SuperMartXé VIP by Paris Hilton' team will compete in the 125cc motorcycle grand prix racing world championship in 2011 and, no, Paris is not going to be riding the bikes herself. Sergio Gadea and Maverick Viñales, of the Barcelona-based By Queroseno Racing (BQR) team will be riding the bikes, while Christian Lundberg and Rossano Brazzi will handle the technical side of things.
Ms Hilton, who is part-owner of the SuperMartXé VIP racing team, is contractually obliged to attend at least five grand prix races in 2011, which gives motorcycle racing fans something to look forward to next year. Or not.

Mike's Bikes: 330 Pro-Street
We'd take any excuse, including the bike you see here, to feature that model - Tiffany - on this website. That lady is smoking hot!!
Based in California, 45-year-old Mike has been customising motorcycles for the last three decades. When he was 15, he started riding in the 250cc and then 500cc motocross and also developed a passion for customising cars and motorcycles. Mike, whose work has been featured in various magazines, likes to call his creations "ladytamer" choppers. He says his designs remind him of a beautiful woman's body, full of great lines, curves, long legs and packed with attitude. Ahem.
The machine you see here is the 330 Pro-Street and we think it doesn't look too bad. Especially with that hot model – Tiffany – draped all over the bike. Actually, if we're honest, custom cruisers don't really work for us, but Tiffany sure does... :-)

Mission R electric racebike announced
The Mission R features an impressive powerpack and is fitted with high-spec chassis, suspension and braking components. But there is no mention of range or battery charging time...
Mission Motors have unveiled their new electric racebike, the Mission R, which they claim is the 'most advanced electric racing motorcycle in the world.' The bike has been designed by Tim Prentice of Motonium Design and features race-spec components from manufacturers like Öhlins, Brembo and Marchesini.
The Mission R's powerplant consists of a liquid-cooled three-phase AC induction motor that pumps out 141 horsepower and 156Nm of torque from zero to 6,400rpm! Now that's definitely something no conventional motorcycle can match.
Mission Motors' press material goes on to describe some things that we don't really understand – things like MissionEVT battery modules with an integrated battery management system, carbonfibre casing with dielectric liner, swappable architecture, 14.4 kW•h of total energy storage and MissionEVT 100kW controller with integrated vehicle management system, but we suppose it's all very impressive... in a slightly mysterious sort of way.
The Mission R also features adjustable throttle mapping, regenerative braking, WiFi and 3G data connectivity (whoever would have thought you'd want that on a motorcycle!) and single-speed transmission. The RADD-designed chassis is made of billet aluminium and chrome-molybdenum and uses the powerpack as a fully stressed member.
Up front is an Öhlins FGR-000 TTX25 gas-charged fork that's adjustable for preload, ride height, and high- and low-speed compression and rebound damping. Rear suspension is via fully adjustable Öhlins TTX36 monoshock and linkage system, and the single-sided billet aluminium swingarm allows linear wheelbase and chain adjustment. Brakes are races-spec Brembo units and the bike rides on 17-inch forged magnesium wheels from Marchesini.
Mission Motors do not quote any acceleration figures for the Mission R, but we do think those could well be very impressive. Claimed top speed is in excess of 260km/h. Since there is no mention of range or battery charging time, we guess the technology isn't ready to go mainstream yet. In addition to power, speed and acceleration, things like range, charging time and price would also be important factors for regular sportsbike buyers, and Mission Motors might still be 2 – 3 years away from being ready with a street-legal machine that can be a viable alternative to a ZX-10R, GSX-R1000 or S1000RR. But that the street-legal electric superbike's time will come, now looks increasingly inevitable.

Valentino Rossi slips to 7th place on SI's list of highest-paid athletes
With an annual pay packet of US$35 million, Valentino Rossi is at 7th place on the list of the world's highest paid non-US athletes. So maybe he should pay for the next round of beers then, eh?
Last year, The Doctor stood at fifth place on Sports Illustrated magazine's list of the world's highest-paid (non-US)athletes. In 2009, Valentino Rossi earned about US$35 million and took joint fifth place on the list, along with F1 driver Fernando Alonso.
In 2010, The Doctor still took home $35 million but that is now only good for 7th place on the SI list of the world's highest-paid non-US athletes (Rossi is in 13th spot if US athletes are also included). On top is Golfer Tiger Woods, with an annual pay packet of $90.5 million, followed by Tennis player Roger Federer ($62 million) and prize fighter Floyd Mayweather ($60 million) in second and third places respectively.
However, Rossi still earned more money this year than NASCAR's Dale Earnhardt Jr. ($26 million), Tennis hottie Maria Sharapova ($20 million) and F1 driver Lewis Hamilton ($16.5 million). He also made more money than the publishers of Faster and Faster, who probably made all of $0.006 million in 2010. Here's looking at 2011 now...

Team Cycle World Attack Performance Yoshimura Suzuki GSX-R1000: What lies beneath
Team Cycle World's GSX-R1000 wears a Drudi Performance-designed red-white-and-black livery, which we think looks pretty good! Maybe Suzuki should do an official replica...?
The AMA claim that their Pro Racing American Superbike rules are aimed at reducing costs and establishing a level playing field for all racers. Cycle World magazine decided to go racing in the series this year, with Eric Bostrom riding a GSX-R1000, to see if privateers really stand a chance of taking podium finishes and even, perhaps, winning a race or two.
American Suzuki supplied a 2009 GSX-R1000, and Team Cycle World Attack Performance Yoshimura Suzuki decided they would participate in four rounds of the AMA Superbikes series in the US. As things turned out, Eric did not win any races during the year aboard the Cycle World GSX-R – a seventh-place finish was the best he could manage. Still, we thought it would be interesting to take a quick look at what exactly goes into a privateer's AMA Superbikes racebike, and what some of these components cost. So here we go:
EMPro engine-management system (tech support for this comes from Yoshimura Racing, via its engine lease program, which costs $1,400 per race weekend), series-spec Sunoco fuel, Dunlop tyres and Brembo brakes, with billet monobloc radial-mount four-piston callipers at the front, which cost $2,605 each. HPK 320mm stainless steel brake discs at the front, which cost $660 each, and billet two-piston rear brake calliper that costs $1,876.
Two types of wheels are used on this racing GSX-R; five-spoke forged aluminium wheels from Piega, which cost $2,146 per set, and six-spoke forged magnesium wheels (that weigh a kilo less compared with the aluminium wheels) from Cattiva, which cost $4,125 per set. In 2010, most AMA Superbikes used gas cartridge fork kits (that fit inside the stock fork), which cost about $3,800 and race-spec rear shocks that cost about $5,500. Team Cycle World's GSX-R1000 was fitted with Ohlins NIX cartridge kits that cost $1,320 each and Ohlins TTX36 rear shock, which costs $1,403 per unit.
So now you know what kind of stuff goes into an AMA Superbikes racer and approximately how expensive it is to go racing in a series like American Superbikes. Don't know about you, but it makes us wonder what it would cost to campaign a machine in World Superbikes. And let's not even think about MotoGP...!
The ready-to-race Team Cycle World Attack Performance Yoshimura Suzuki AMA Pro American superbike will soon be auctioned off, with all proceeds going to the Cycle World Joseph C. Parkhurst Education Fund to benefit the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation's scholarship program for brain-tumor survivors.

Atsushi Ueshima: 'The BMW S1000RR is our main target!'
Atsushi Ueshima (top, right) says that Kawasaki started developing the new ZX-10R Ninja before the arrival of the S1000RR, but admits that the BMW is now the bike to beat...
Moto Revue recently caught up with Atsushi Ueshima, project leader for the 2011 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R, and asked him a few questions about Kawi's newest heavy hitter in the litre-class superbikes segment. Here are a few excerpts from what Atsushi San had to say:
On what was the primary brief for the new ZX-10R project
To be the fastest! That is always the no.1 target in the development of our sportsbikes. But we must also, of course, adapt the bikes' performance for everyday use on the road. We wanted to make the new ZX-10R easy to control, especially in terms of its power, and to make the chassis very communicative. The traction control makes this possible, but even when disconnected, the engine's linear power delivery remains very effective and allows the rider to keep the bike under control even at very high speeds.
On what were some of the most challenging aspects of the bike's development process
The engine, and more precisely the power management system, which makes the engine's power very accessible. Also, the development of the chassis – we focused on mass centralization and on putting more weight on the front, which provides a better 'feel' to the rider. We also worked hard on weight reduction, without compromising on the rigidity of the chassis.
On competition from European sportsbikes
We needed three full years to develop this new ZX-10R. Back in late-2007, there was no BMW S1000RR, so it isn't as if Kawasaki have developed this new bike to take on the BMW. But yes, today the BMW is our main target!
On whether the ZX-10R's 200bhp was one of the primary goals
No, we simply sought to improve performance as best as we could. That the bike ended up with 200 horsepower is just that much better!
On whether Kawasaki might return to MotoGP in the 1,000cc era
Yes, of course. This is a very important goal for the coming years.
On whether there will be an all-new ZX-6R, on the lines of the new ZX-10R
The new ZX-10R in action!

EU Commission recommends mandatory ABS for motorcycles
Regardless of the kind of bike that you may be riding, the EU proposal wants you riding with ABS. Which is just as well, we suppose, since ABS really does boost safety in a very big way...
The EU Commission has presented a proposal for new framework regulation for motorcycles in Europe, whereby anti-lock brakes (ABS) will be mandatory for 125cc and above motorcycles, from 2017. The proposal is currently passing through the EU legislative procedure and will likely be adopted next year. This year, only 16% of all new bikes sold in the EU were equipped with ABS.
By making ABS mandatory for motorcycles, the EU commission hopes to boost safety for motorcyclists. While a lot of bigger bikes have been fitted with ABS for some time now, the new EU proposal is looking to extend this safety feature to smaller bikes as well. German automotive components manufacturer, Bosch is likely to be a key player in this segment, since the company has developed an ABS system specifically for smaller bikes.
'The ABS 9 systems for motorcycles are the world's smallest. This is our way of encouraging manufacturers to install this life-saving safety system in all motorcycles equipped with hydraulic brakes,' says Dr Werner Struth, President of the Bosch Chassis Systems Control division. Bosch began producing the new motorcycle ABS in late 2009.
In 2008, 5,520 motorcyclists were involved in fatal accidents in the European Union, representing 14% of all road deaths in the EU. Unfortunately enough, this figure hasn't changed much for approximately the last 15 years, while the number of fatal accidents for car drivers has declined by a significant 49%. In fact, according to the European Transport Safety Council (ETSC), the risk of suffering a fatal accident is 18 times greater for motorcyclists than for car drivers in Europe, assuming that the distance travelled is the same for both.
With a view to reducing cost, weight and complexity on motorcycle ABS systems, Bosch's engineering centre in Japan has designed the 'ABS 9,' which is supposed to be the lightest, most compact ABS system for motorcycles anywhere in the world. Bosch, who've been making motorcycle ABS systems since the mid-1990s, claim that this is also the most cost-effective motorcycle ABS system available anywhere.
According to a study carried out by the EU, making ABS mandatory for motorcycles could cut down the incidence of fatal crashes for motorcyclists by almost 50%. Since ABS allows motorcyclists to brake very hard – without the fear of the bike's wheels locking up and the bike sliding uncontrollably and crashing – even on wet and slippery tarmac, the safety factor definitely gets a major boost. Here's hoping that manufacturers won't wait for mandatory fitment laws and take it upon themselves to fit ABS on all new motorcycles as soon as possible!

Swigz Racing: Battery-powered upstart to challenge petrol-engined superbikes in 2011
Chip Yates, aboard that battery-powered machine (the yellow bike), hopes to be able to take on the best superbikes in the world. He'll be racing in the WERA series in the US in 2011...
The 9th of January 2011 could be the day of reckoning, the moment of truth, for electric sportsbike evangelists. Swigz Racing, who claim to have developed the 'world's most powerful and technically advanced electric superbike,' are saying that their machine will be the most powerful road racing motorcycle of any kind being actively campaigned anywhere in the world. And yes, that includes MotoGP bikes.
The Swigz electric racer, which will be unveiled on the 15th of this month at the Infineon Raceway in California, will race for the first time on the 9th of January 2011 at the Auto Club Speedway, also in California. Swigz claim that their machine will go head to head against conventional petrol-engined racebikes in a professionally organized roadrace.
'We have to thank WERA Motorcycle Roadracing for inviting us into their series. Our electric motorcycle will compete head on with real racing superbikes such as the Ducati 1198 and KTM RC8 as well as other established manufacturers, and we expect to show the world that electric technology can achieve lap time parity with petrol superbikes,' says Chip Yates, the bike's rider and owner of Swigz Racing. 'We're not going on track to make up the numbers; we're going out to compete in order to raise our game and catch up to these petrol guys,' he adds.
The Swigz bike was excluded from the FIM and TTXGP championships on account of its weight. The bike weighs 266 kilos, whereas the weight limit for those championships is 250kg. 'Clearly, these championships are more concerned with promoting scooter development. Our bike is so much faster than the electric competition that we feel far more inclined to push our bike's unique technology platform forward in the ultimate competitive environment of petrol-engined bike racing,' claims Yates.
With about 194bhp, the Swigz racebike's power-to-weight ratio is already better than that of most 600cc supersports machines. And by January next year, Yates believes development work on the bike will boost power output to around 210-215bhp. 'Our scheduled power increase will make our electric superbike more powerful than a MotoGP bike and will bring us extremely close to power to weight parity with the best 1,000cc Japanese superbikes. Those two facts are a simply outstanding reflection of the potential in electric power,' says Yates.
In 2011, Swigz Racing's battery-powered wonder will race at various rounds of the WERA championship series, at circuits like the Miller Motorsports Park, Las Vegas Motor Speedway and many others. Whether it can really take on the best superbikes in the world on equal terms, or whether it'll merely turn out to be damp squib remains to be seen.

Jaguar-Blandon jet-engine looks interesting for motorcycles!
Sir William Lyons (top, right), the man who set up Jaguar in the 1930s, was also a motorcycle enthusiast. Could the new, lightweight micro jet engines (top, left) used on the new Jaguar C-X75 concept car (below) find their way on to motorcycles, sometime in the near future...?
Sir William Lyons, the man who set up Jaguar in the 1930s, was also a motorcycle enthusiast. In fact, much before he set up Jaguar and started making cars, he set up the Swallow Sidecar Company in the early-1920s, with the help of fellow motorcycle enthusiast William Walmsley. More than three-quarters of a century later, Jaguar have unveiled a jet-electric supercar concept, the C-X75, whose powerplant looks very interesting not just in the context of cars but also, possibly, motorcycles.
According to Jaguar, the C-X75, which was recently unveiled to celebrate '75 years of beautiful, fast Jaguars,' can accelerate from zero to 100km/h in 3.4 seconds and is capable of hitting a top speed of 330km/h. With all of four electric motors – one at each wheel – powering the 4WD car, the C-X75 packs a massive 780 horsepower and 1,600Nm of torque. And that's not all – the Jag is also fitted with two micro gas-turbines (yes, that's two very small jet engines!), that are there to charge the lithium-ion batteries that feed the electric motors. Spinning at a heady 80,000rpm, the two tiny jet engines generate enough electricity to extend the car's range to 900km.
What we find really interesting about the C-X75, in the context of motorcycles, are its tiny gas-turbines, each of which is no bigger than your average thermos flask. Jaguar developed these in partnership with Bladon Jets, and each mini jet engine weighs 35kg and produces 94 horsepower at a constant 80,000rpm. Now, we think that's pretty exciting stuff. Can you imagine a GSX-R, CBR-RR or ZX-RR fitted with two (or three, or four...!) of these near-100bhp jet engines? The performance should be quite mind-boggling.
The UK-based Bladon Jets, who've developed these mini jet engines for Jaguar, say that this is the first time anyone has ever produced multi-stage axial flow compressors (the technology used on all large gas-turbines) on a miniaturized scale and to very high tolerances. 'This has increased the compression and efficiency of micro gas-turbines to the point at which they can be viewed as a realistic power source,' say Blandon.
Jet engines can run on a range of fuels including petrol, diesel, compressed natural gas (CNG), liquid petroleum gas (LPG) and various biofuels. They also offer some advantages over the reciprocating piston engine in terms of having fewer moving parts and not needing oil lubrication or water-cooling systems, which also leads to weight-saving benefits. Also, turbines reach their optimum operating speed and temperature in seconds and can operate at a constant RPM, at which they deliver their optimum output.
We're not saying we'll all be riding jet-engined GSX-Rs and R1s next year. But the micro jet engines developed by Blandon are definitely intriguing in the sportsbikes context. We certainly hope some manufacturer, or at least some small volumes specials builder, will look into this and see if it's possible to build a mass-market jet-engined superbike sometime soon!

Bosch Sponsored Team Takes Top Honors at Solar Decathlon
Oct 25, 2007, 01:00 ET from Robert Bosch LLC
WASHINGTON, Oct. 25 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The Technische Universitat Darmstadt, Germany, sponsored by Bosch, won the United States Department of Energy's third Solar Decathlon held in Washington D.C. from October 12-19, 2007. The annual competition brought together 20 college and university teams from across the United States, Canada, Germany, Spain and Puerto Rico in a competition to design, build and operate the most attractive, effective and energy-efficient solar-powered house. The Technische Universitat Darmstadt team presented the German way of building, showcasing German technologies and materials, including German oak, in their solar house. The team collaborated with German companies and manufacturers, including Bosch, which provided three-month internships for two of the Darmstadt students. The internships provided an opportunity for students to test how well the systems could provide hot water and climate control for the house. "The internship was very interesting because we had experts from Bosch right next to us, and whenever we had specific questions, we received the answers we needed very quickly," said Toby Kern, an architecture student who was part of the winning team. Lou Vorsteveld, president, Bosch Thermotechnology in the U.S. said, "Congratulations to Technische Universitat Darmstadt for winning this prestigious honor from the U.S. Department of Energy. We at Bosch are committed to developing innovative, renewable energy technologies that save energy, reduce CO2 emissions and contribute to energy independence, and are very encouraged to see students demonstrate so innovatively and effectively how our solar technology solutions can easily be applied in the real world." The house will return to Germany to be used as a solar power plant, as part of the university's project to develop a Solar Campus ("Solare Lichtwiese"), through which all buildings on campus will be equipped with building-integrated photovoltaics, feeding electricity into the German power grid. Bosch Thermotechnology is a lead sponsor of the team from the Darmstadt Technical University in Germany. The Darmstadt team utilizes Buderus solar thermal flat plate collectors to supply the house with domestic hot water from the sun. The win follows Bosch's announcement that its Bosch Thermotechnology division will create Bosch and Buderus branded solar thermal water heating systems and components for both residential and commercial customers in the U.S. The final product certification for these solar thermal water heating systems is nearing completion and products will be offered by Bosch Thermotechnology Corporation at the beginning of 2008. Bosch and Buderus solar thermal heating systems use state of the art technology to effectively capture the sun's energy to heat and store hot water for residential and commercial applications. The Bosch solar flat plate collectors utilize innovative absorber plate designs and collector construction to maximize energy efficiency even on cloudy days. Bosch solar collectors can be seamlessly integrated with Bosch high efficiency solar water storage tanks, pump stations and controllers providing contractors with an intelligent, easy-to-install solar hot water heating solution. The Bosch Group is a leading global supplier of technology and services. In the areas of automotive and industrial technology, consumer goods, and building technology, some 260,000 associates generated sales of 43.7 billion euros, or $54.7 billion in fiscal year 2006. The Bosch Group comprises Robert Bosch GmbH and its roughly 300 subsidiary and regional companies in over 50 countries. This worldwide development, manufacturing, and sales network is the foundation for further growth. Bosch spends more than three billion euros each year for research and development, and in 2006 applied for over 3,000 patents worldwide.
