Ted Cruz as NRSC-tea party link
Ted Cruz's tea party cred is about to be put to the ultimate test.
The Texas senator-elect's decision to take a formal role at the National Republican Senatorial Committee places him squarely inside an organization many on the right view with suspicion, if not outright disdain.
Story Continued Below
His title will be vice chairman, but it could just as easily be ambassador — to the ideological grass-roots wing of the party, which helped propel Cruz's long-shot bid over a sitting lieutenant governor this year.

It's a high-wire act for the political neophyte. As an NRSC deputy, he'll have to balance the political pragmatism of a quintessential inside-the-Beltway institution without tarnishing his brand as an anti-establishment constitutional conservative.
"I don't see a conflict at all," said incoming NRSC Chairman Jerry Moran. "He brings a respect from the grass-roots part of our party that I think is very helpful to us as we recruit candidates and try to educate … our nominees, how to get elected in [general elections]."
Yet unless the GOP can halt its recent history of bloody primaries, it's inevitable that the 41-year-old Cuban-American will find himself in some touchy situations.
If the campaign arm decides to bless a candidate over an insurgent challenger, it's Cruz who will most likely be tasked with smoothing over any bad feelings — and potentially be accused of bigfooting the locals.
Conversely, if the committee opts to stay on the sidelines in a race in which a tea party contender is gaining steam, Cruz could come under pressure to show fealty to the movement.
"I honestly don't see how he can balance the two," said a GOP strategist who is an admirer of Cruz but is skeptical of his new role. "If he were the chairman and had complete control, that would be one thing, but the NRSC is still run by the leadership and is still biased against the grass roots and conservatives.
"The leadership didn't tap him for this role to recruit conservative candidates. They did it to use him as a human shield to defend themselves against attacks from the right when they mess up," the strategist added.
Cruz declined an interview request for this story. But sources close to him say the idea of bringing Cruz under the NRSC umbrella was originally hatched by Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell in conjunction with Moran.
Tapping an eloquent Hispanic who's well-connected to the grass roots — and from a state integral to Republican fundraising — was a no-brainer, Capitol Hill sources with knowledge of the negotiation said. But once the offer was extended in the week following the election, Cruz wanted to be assured of real responsibilities.
"Cruz did not lobby for the position. He was not interested in having a figurehead-type role. His view was, 'I'm not going to take something just for you to slap my name on,'" said a Republican consultant privy to the conversation.
But in accepting the NRSC job, which is still somewhat undefined despite his wishes, Cruz showed a pragmatic streak that could be crucial to any national ambition he harbors. He hasn't denied interest in eventually running for president.

In societies divorced from religion, you can find several different types of characters in a single workplace. Every one of these character-types is influenced by the position he has been given, and determined by his responsibilities, salary and rank in relation to other workers. One of the characters shaped by these factors is that of a manager. Those who are of this kind of character are of a disposition regarded as otherwise quite normal for a person in their circumstances, but which is the product of a corrupt way of thinking; they can be two characters at once, changing according to the particular situation. They show one of side of this character to those who are their superiors; and show the other to those who are their inferiors.
When they are with their boss, people having this morality in ignorant societies are humble and submissive; they treat him with deference, sometimes bending over backwards to please him. They do everything he wants immediately, being careful not to make the least mistake. The boss, on the other hand, has the right to say anything he wants to his subordinates and, if necessary, to berate them. Managers do not mind being treated in this way, and regard it as the boss's right to criticize them. They do everything they can to get the boss to like them, and to get on his good side. They will even fulfill menial tasks outside of work to gain his favor. The purpose of all this self-sacrifice is definite: The boss is the one who pays their salary, and exercises the final authority in the workplace. Therefore, all the manager's wages and benefits are determined by him. Gaining support and sympathy from the boss is extremely important for the manager's career and future. For this reason, a person with such morality will not hesitate to compromise his honor and integrity.
It will be useful at this point to make an important distinction: It is good for people to respect and esteem those who are in a higher position or senior to them or to fulfill their requests. But, in doing so they must seek the pleasure of Allah, acknowledging that person's level of morality, and not seek any material benefit from him.
But, people in a society of ignorance do not acknowledge the level of morality of another. They respect a rich man even if he is morally weak. They try to oppress those who work with them, with no regard for their moral qualities, because their criteria by which they judge others is not based on earning the pleasure of Allah. According to the distorted way of thinking of a society of ignorance, these individuals regard themselves as superior to those they oppress, and they think they have the right to treat them badly. Now, this manager, who was so meek and mild when the boss was present, becomes arrogant, over-confident, a "do what you're told" dictator. He is very harsh and uncompromising towards those under him. He barks out orders, and if a problem arises, he does not hesitate to publicly berate the person responsible, because these people he deems to be of no advantage to him. Besides, he wants to inflict the arrogance on those under him as the boss inflicts on him. In this way, he hopes to deny the meek character he shows when the boss is around.
The contradiction in these two different character sides is generally regarded as normal in the workplace and in a society of ignorance. This is the way the system works: according to this false system, the owner of the company can treat a manager any way he wants; a manager can do the same to a secretary and a secretary can do it to the janitor. The reverse is also true; everyone behaves as best he can towards a superior, and is careful to do what is expected of him. But when the superior is absent, the others do not hesitate to express their hatred of him. The respect they show is false.
This moral system is evidently corrupt. These people know how to behave respectfully, but they do not feel they have to behave in such a way towards each other, because there is no material benefit to be derived from it. Not only this vice not considered controversial, but it is not even noticed in the corruption of a society of ignorance. However, according to the Qur'an, one who behaves this way has no conscience. Without being in an expectation of a mundane benefit, a human being is responsible for behaving as well as his conscience will allow under all circumstances, and Allah has commanded all to be tolerant and humble.
A human being possesses nothing of his own that would raise his stature among those around him. Rank and status come only from Allah. He bestows upon those of His servants He chooses, and raises the stature of those whom He wishes to raise. When He wishes, He can reverse the situation; He has the power to take back every blessings He has conferred. For this reason, a human being must always act humbly before Allah. In the Qur'an, Allah reminds us of this truth:
Do not strut arrogantly about the Earth. You will certainly never split the earth apart nor will you ever rival the mountains in height. (Surat al-Isra', 37)
A believer lives aware of this reality. No matter who he has to deal with in this world, he is never boastful and does not forget that he is responsible to Allah. For this reason, he does not believe that such alternating and insincere behavior is acceptable, and adopts in all times and in all places a moral character pleasing to Allah. No matter what the rank or position of another, he always acts towards that person with respect and courtesy. He does not expect a reward for his politeness; on the contrary, he expects recompense only from Allah for every good he performs. He severs Allah, and works to win His favor.2012-01-21 02:45:46

Sunday, June 28, 2009
Recently, we were given an opportunity to try mix1 Protein and Antioxidant Drinks.
What's it for?
mix1 is for you, when:
* You overslept. When you have no time for breakfast, instead of that pitcher of coffee and super-sized danish, choose mix1. That way, you'll start your day with nourishing, sustained energy, not a harrowing ride on the Blood Sugar Roller Coaster.
* You're going through your daily decathlon. Running from one life event to another (work, soccer practice, meetings...you now the drill) it's sometimes hard to eat well. Add mix1 to your midmorning and midafternoon, and sprint with energy to the next event!
* After your workout. Post-exercise, your body and mind need to be recharged with a quality protein (to rebuild), and quickly-absorbed carbohydrates (to refuel). mix1 is a great way to restore properly with both necessary nutrients.
* You just flew over three time zones. When you want to recover from the stress of travel, a sugary candy bar or a highly caffeinated beverage will not give your body and your brain the best opportunity to thrive. What you need is the perfect mix of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, fiber, carbs and protein -- so reach for mix1 and boost your body and your brain!
* On your way to class. You were up all night cramming for the big exam, and the time is here. But oh no! - there's that feeling - your blood sugar's in your feet. Drink a quick mix1 before you put your mind to the test - it's nourishing blend of vitamins and nutrients will help replenish your brain and keep you awake and sharp so you can put in your best performance.

"There's not going to be any Peace and Love for Pit Bulls."
-Councilmember Kirby, Auburn, CA
WHEN: Saturday May 1st, 2010, 7pm -11pm
WHERE: Brickhouse Gallery, 2837 36th Street, Sacramento, CA 95817
ADMISSION: $10 Recommended Donation at Door
Our first annual PEACE, LOVE & PIT BULLS ART SHOW commemorates the official (pending) "non-profit" status of CHAKO Pit Bull Rescue! Yeah, we finally did it! (This is a humans only event, please leave the pups at home for this one, thanks!)
As Sacramento's only dedicated Pit Bull Rescue, we are asking all you Bully lovers and parents to come out and show your support for CHAKO and this long awaited achievement. In order for CHAKO to start servicing this Sacramento Valley area the way we want to, we need your help in the form of donations (purchased art, etc.), volunteer support, and your physical support - just showing up to party!
The evening will be filled with music, dogs and more:
- - Amazing PIT BULL specific artwork
- Proceeds benefit CHAKO Pit Bull Rescue
- Silent auction tables with lots of doggie and people goodies…
- Amazing merchandise from companies we all know and love like
PACO COLLARS ,http://pacocollars.com/
COLLAR MANIA ,http://www.collarmania.com/ and more…
- Special guest Pinups model Ana Poe (of Paco Collars) will be representing Pinups for Pitbulls!
For example, currently our rescue and foster homes are kindly bearing the burden of the expenses associated with getting the dogs "adoption ready." Each dog we process costs about $500 to get ready for adoption (spay/neuter, vaccines, HW test, HW prevention, food, microchip, vet care, etc.). In order to bring more foster homes into our system (thus saving more dogs) we must be able to provide more support for these generous people (foster parents).
PEACE, LOVE & PIT BULLS is being held by CHAKO Pit Bull Rescue and Sacramento Responsible Pit Bull Lovers. Event coordinators Dawn Capp and Amy McMullan encourage you come out and help us put Sacramento on the "Pit Bull Rescue" map!!

Apple's Mac Pro - Upgrading CPUs, Memory & Running XPby Anand Lal Shimpi on September 12, 2006 1:51 AM EST
- Posted in
- Mac
Weeks have passed since Apple's announcement of the Mac Pro, and while we wanted to conclude our look at the Mac Pro much earlier, like many Mac Pro users we ran into some serious performance issues under Windows XP.
With the Mac Pro performance issues resolved and some more time with the system under our belts, we're able to bring you the final part in our Mac Pro coverage. This time we're focusing on upgrading the memory and CPUs in the Mac Pro, as well as looking at its performance as a PC running Windows XP.
As a high end Xeon based machine that can run both Mac OS X and Windows XP, the Mac Pro has the potential to be the power user's dream. Today our task is to find out just how upgradable this machine is and how well it runs XP, if it can truly be your only system if you're a Mac and PC user.
FBD Revisited
Thus far the only real downside we've seen to the Mac Pro is its use of Fully Buffered DIMM (FBD). As we mentioned in our initial article discussing the Mac Pro's specifications, the FBD spec calls for a serial interface between memory controller and memory modules, while allowing the chips on the memory modules themselves to be regular mainstream DDR2 devices. A FBD memory controller talks to an AMB (Advanced Memory Buffer) on each memory module, which acts as a translation hub and buffer for all communication between the DDR2 devices on the module and the requests from the memory controller.
The major benefit of FBD is the ability to feature more memory modules per channel (up to 8 per channel), offering greater capacity for high end servers and workstations than even registered DDR2. The downside to FBD is that there is significant overhead and latency introduced by using a packetized interface and using the AMBs to translate from one interface technology to another (FBD to DDR2).
As we mentioned and proved in our previous articles, the number and configuration of FB-DIMMs in your Mac Pro can affect performance. The Intel 5000X chipset in the Mac Pro features two 144-bit FBD branches, each being the width of two FB-DIMMs (effectively giving the chipset four "channels"). Therefore you need at least two FB-DIMMs in the system (the width of a single FBD branch), but ideally you'd need at least four to have a hope of attaining peak bandwidth.
As some of our readers (and Intel) pointed out, the story doesn't just end at needing four FB-DIMMs. The rank of the FB-DIMMs can impact performance as well, and ideally each of your FB-DIMM modules would be dual rank modules. The rank of a DIMM is determined by dividing the width of all of the devices on the module by the width of the module itself. For example, a single rank FB-DIMM would have 9 DDR2 devices each being 8-bits wide. A dual rank FB-DIMM would be composed of 18 DDR2 devices, each still being 8-bits wide. All of our 512MB FB-DIMMs are single rank modules, while our 1GB and 2GB modules are dual rank.
The story doesn't end with rank though. Because of the dedicated read and write lanes between the memory controller and the AMBs on FB-DIMMs, you can be reading from one FB-DIMM while writing to another. So in theory, if you're running an application (or combination of applications) that have a lot of concurrent reads and writes going on you could stand to benefit from having more than one FB-DIMM per channel.
Based on all of the above information, it would seem like your best bet is to stick as many dual rank FB-DIMMs as you can afford in your system, and if that were the case then we'd be able to move on from here. Unfortunately it's not, because as we mentioned in previous articles, the more FB-DIMMs you have in your system, the higher access latencies will be to those additional FB-DIMMs.
What we then end up with is a tradeoff between more bandwidth and higher latency, so which route do you take? We've done a lot of testing and most of our tests seem to favor the four dual-rank FB-DIMM module configuration, but the number/configuration of modules really depends on your particular needs. We're still testing to figure out what the tangible real world performance differences are between the multitude of memory configurations, but for now just know that if you need maximum bandwidth you'll want 8 dual rank FB-DIMMs, but if you want lower latency you'll want fewer modules. Whether or not you'll see a performance difference will depend mostly on the application(s) you're running.

newrigel - Monday, September 01, 2008 - linkI own both and my mac smokes my PC's and I have the latest and greatest PC's made!!!
For audio, the Mac rules because I can audition an audio file within the file hierarchy and with windows I can't so... Reply
greylica - Tuesday, September 12, 2006 - linkI Guess Fully Buffered Dimms, with a new controler that can cut latencies will do it just fine, and sooner or later we will have a situation where every part of theh computer can achieve higher performances by a number of serialized and specialized controllers, memory then can serve as a memory controler/memory module and report to the system as well as aa SCSI device. Remember in teh past years you can buy an external memory controler that serve as a SCSI card, with special functions.
May intel will be giving you to the future in this way cause chipsets, specially north bridge with all those functions into the same package, and the nightmare to be pinning dedicated MTRR to adress memory sets into the same motherboard with only three layers, and diverse other issues caused by cost limits in this type of config with much more RAM.
May Intel can be wrong too, AMD haves a controller dedicated into every processor with NUMA ( Non Uniform Memory architeture ), but again we have a pin count to make a hell with Growth of RAM in the computer world if we use memory like we are using until now.
We have two sides of the story now, and, in the two cases, we have to have a dedicated controller to count memory and acess it, may be a dedicated controller with numa, or a dedicated controller over a north bridge that is nearly the same thing, except the aproaches. A Nort Bridge that servers every processor or processors that serves each other passing data as needed on Numa.
Every memory now will be serialized to achieve the growth of the use, and we will use more and more RAM.
FB Dimms not scares me, what scares me is that the other manufacturers will delay to start using it.
And I really prefer Registered ECC or FB Dimms as they are reliable, did you use memtest in every memory that you have ? I use.
One bit error and I turn back to guarantee. I don´t have time to waste with a defect that every time appears different...
Good Vibes. Reply
vailr - Tuesday, September 12, 2006 - linkIsn't there a bios size difference between Mac vs. PC video cards? The Mac cards use 512 K bios chips, while PC cards have only 256 K. Thus, trying to flash a PC video card with a Mac version bios won't work. The extra 256K has something to do the video card's compatability with the EFI bios.
Another question: PowerPC Macs could boot from an external firewire HD (but could not boot from USB). PC's can boot from external USB HD's, but not from firewire. What's the external bootable HD situation with the Mac Pro? Is the Mac Pro's EFI bios configurable? Haven't seen any screenshots of the Mac Pro's EFI bios setup. Reply
JarredWalton - Tuesday, September 12, 2006 - linkI believe some PC cards will have the same size BIOS chips, but if not you need to get a hacked BIOS where someone has stripped out some extras to fit a 512K BIOS into 256K. I think I've heard of it being done, but honestly I haven't ever tried it - I don't have any Macs, unlike Anand, Derek, and a couple others. Reply
waamatt - Tuesday, September 12, 2006 - linkI think the high speed DDR2 + Core 2 Duo combo outperforming certain tasks on an FB-DIMM and Xeon (Dual Core) system is precisely the reason we won't see a plain ol' Mac tower anytime soon. I'd love one, but if something you want to do can be done better on it than on their pricier system, they'd just want you to buy an iMac. Hopefully advancements will be made with the whole FB-DIMM system to allow for lower latency and generally better performance, sooner than later.
The GPU thing is a bit annoying with Macs, but it IS getting better. The number of options is growing, and the ability to keep up with new/relatively new cards is definitely better than it was, say, 3-5 years ago.
That said, I wouldn't consider buying a Mac Pro until about the third revision as I'd like to see FB-DIMMs improved and better clock speeds on quad core processors. Plus, that sort of provides time to work out any other minor kinks in the system.
Over all, this trio of Mac Pro articles was excellent for the way it discusses the technologies used as opposed to just going, "Ooh, aah, pretty Apple!" (Actually, does anyone other than Apple do that?) Reply
MonkeyPaw - Tuesday, September 12, 2006 - linkI wonder how well Vista RC1 would run on the MacPro? Reply
blwest - Tuesday, September 12, 2006 - linkAnand,
I've been reading your site for years. This article was excellent in pointing out the limitations and strengths of FB-Diimms. I'm coming to a point in my life where I'm still very interested in technology, performance and the technical aspect of things.
However, do not have the time to research individual parts, etc like I used to back in my college days. I think Apple produces a quality product with an appreciation for attention to detail. This article helps us to understand the technology, how it works and how to DIY upgrade the Mac. FWIW, the Apple case is even much higher quality than my $400 Lian-Li PC setup I run my server (linux) on. Apple has finally given us weekend warriors a sytsem to tinker with and upgrade!
As always I take information from your article and use deductive reasoning to extrapolate what is and isn't applicable to my situation.
I agree with the previous poster's comment, Apple sells this system well below what you can piece it together on your own--or what Dell sells.
The final point I'd like to make is that this is a Professional system, not a gaming system. If you're into creativity, using your computer for pictures, movies, online chatting or web development--the mac's for you. If you're into running MS Office, business apps or games, then XP is for you. I no longer have time for games and prefer to use my home system for saving my family memories, communicating with friends/family and not having to pop my case open to clear my cmos in order to accomplish these things.
Thanks again for all that you do.
yacoub - Tuesday, September 12, 2006 - linkIs that Motley Crue - S.O.S. I hear playing?
It's the saaaame old, It's the saaaame old situa-a-tion...
Gaming: Windows PC, video work: Mac. Reply
greylica - Tuesday, September 12, 2006 - linkYesss, the same old situation, Mac for vídeos and a PC for games, Microsoft and others when the Mac was not X86 always tried to put them on the Vídeo maker market, 2000 and XP takes place in an big users base, but they are always telling you the same thing, use a Mac. Windows is limited.
I´m the Ceo of Grey Silica Brazil. I´m specialized to work with Blender (A Now GNU program to 3D content Creation for films and presentations ), and tested every possibility of those "dream machines" when they are on the market with their S.O.s. All I have experienced is that windows XP is a shame compared to 2000, 98 is a never think software for 3D services, although I have to use some times in 1999. Some capture cards simply doesn´t function on NT or even 2000 because of drivers.
But leaving this question I Guess when 2000 was launched Microsoft did a very Good O.S.
XP introduces spywares to the market, as Hackers wanted too to sell information to others to make money, the same thing as Microsoft does with their partners. You register your software to activate it and a Database Knows what machine you have, the memory you are using, the programs you have installed, the VGA card, etc, etc.
Windows XP takes this information to sell to others and everybody knows that, course, you have to accept to use... Linux is still on the road, money mekes this world, pressure to not gave information to linuxers is a bad, bad thing.
Well, Win 2000 now takes those information too, when you download Windows Update services, and WGA have to be installed to 2000 too in some cases. OK. When needed. But it happens now, and not when 2000 was launched. 2000 is not a bad example for hackers.
If I am a hacker, course that I will think in the same way, I will create my own .net passport with the information hacked or stolen from them, if they buy Nvídia, tell my partners " Buy Nvídia, they sell well !".
It´s a PC world created, not a MAC bad example. My admiration for the Mac world too, like Anand, Mac not created this monsters of vírus and spywares, they did not do this bad example to humanity collecting data in this way and serving as a sample to hackers.
The other major problem is limiting the users, 64 Bit can use 128GB of RAM or more, Vista is 64 GB caped, and blogs are saying 4GB is for the kernell. UAU !!!
OMG !!! 4GB for the kernell, astounting.
Why they want to limt the users, when Mac and Linux are on the other road ?
Obvious... To sell other S.O.
Windows will be a Game console System in few years this way, not an S.O. great to work like they ever swear to you.
Compare XP to 2000... They can do exactly the sa thing, but 2000 does it better and faster, complimentary software do not leave you to oblivion, Who needs I.E. 7 ehwn Firefox is better and oppen ? Who needs simple compacted folder included in explorer when 7-zip opens more files than you can imagine ?
Who need My pictures when corel snapfire is better ?
2000 is the best windows. Fill him with the right software and you will have the most powerfull windows ever.
Leave MAC for MAC OS-X or Linux, when they gave you hardware that is capable of 128 GB, the OS will achieve this and will not limit you. Will you use Vista knowing this ? Reply
bobsmith1492 - Tuesday, September 12, 2006 - linkWell, thank you for the enlightenment. I will never use Vista now that I know I cannot use more than 64GB of RAM. Reply

Spotted This Morning: Dan Maes' Big Adventure continues
Well it's just amaesing. He kept on grinding the gears on this thing yesterday.
At a campaign stop up in Steamboat Springs, Dan Maes told participants he has a mountain bike and rides a "super trail" near his Evergreen home, as Steamboat Pilot & Today reporter Tom Ross is reporting.
"I ride early in the morning and I see wildlife," Maes told the crowd.
No word on whether Maes could see the U.N. from the trail, but the apparent (erstwhile? ersatz?) frontrunner in the Grand Old Party's gubernatorial primary continued his explanation that Denver's nonprofit-supported B-Cycle bike-sharing program is a danger to Freedom and Liberty, the American Family, and his crazy first wife's apple pie.
(In a Maes profile by The Denver Post's Christopher N. Osher, who first reported the U.N. conspiracy theory, Maes explains that his parents "were not the smartest folks around," and that "a smarter man" would have just "had fun" with his first wife "and then moved on." My reference to apple pie, however, is gratuitous.)
In Steamboat, Maes used his superior intellect to assert that the B-Cycle program may violate Colorado's Constitution, though your Spotted This Morning correspondent can't imagine how it does so. Maes said the program did so because it received taxpayer money, which it doesn't. Meanwhile, what does he think Colorado's cities and towns use to build their much-loved bike trails, moon rocks?
Maes also admitted he hadn't fully researched the alleged global conspiracy in depth – but insisted he was on the single-track to the truth.

Alright, Cycle Ladies, after a brief stint of testing, here's the Mir.I.Am ASAP review on Lululemon's Fall Commuter "Pedal Power" threads! As previously mentioned, the collection is only available for purchase online for a limited time – so I tried my best to make this review a quickie! I posted as-soon-as-I-could-cajole-others-to-take-photos-of-me-in-the-clothes, essentially translates to a week or so. Here's a quickie overview of each of the pieces I was tasked to scrutinize:
Pedal Power Wind Shirt
why we made thisThis shirt is as easy to throw (on) as Jennifer Grey, only it's better suited for commuting as opposed to dance routines. The lightweight shell is made of Cire fabric to repel wind and rain and the back gathers so we can make adjustments for a perfect fit. Reflective details mean that even in low light we feel comfortable pedaling with gusto.
key features
- wind and water-resistant finish helps us battle the elements
- not one but two continuous drawcords make fine-tuning the fit a cinch
- be bright – reflective details help with low light visibility
- stow your phone in the secure zipper pocket
- mesh panels let your arms breathe
- long in back to keep your rear covered
Pedal Power Pant
why we made thisWe created these lightweight cycling pants to give us room when we're busting a move during and after our commute. Transformable reflective details help keep us bright when we need it and inconspicuous when we don't.
key features
- button the pocket flaps open and switch over the ankle tab for added reflectivity
- durable Commuter Stretch Woven fabric is treated with DWR to help keep you dry on the fly
- stretchy denim luon side panels allow you the freedom to move
- the articulated rise keeps you covered
- store your stuff in the secure back pockets
Pedal Power Longsleeve
why we made thisLeisurely rides call for comfy gear. When we're pedalling at our own pace, we want a layer that keeps us warm and lets us breathe. This long sleeve is the perfect fit – it's cut long to keep us covered and has mesh paneling for us to let off steam. Let's ride!
key features
- the loose cut of this shirt gives you the freedom to move
- thoughtfully placed Circle Mesh panels in high sweat areas help to keep you dry
- reflective details help with visibility in low light
- the drop hem with drawcord keeps you covered so you can tuck and ride
- just say, "no," to chafing with flat seams
- thumbholes help keep your hands warm and makelayering easy
First Glance vs. In The Pants Impressions
Back to my first glance/first impressions/internal brain vomologue (vomit+monologue):
Whoa, these materials are slinky and sexual. How the crap do they make this stuff… spin the golden saliva of Aphrodite!? Maybe I should have ordered a size down, they seem flowy and scarfy. Wait, is this a SCARF? Must make extra efforts not to choke myself with scarf while cycling… Need scarf guard for rear wheel.
And in the pants/shirt/longsleeve impressions:
Finally! It's actually cold enough to wear frickin PANTS! Oh yeah, these Pedal Power Pants could use a little more snugness in the butt for my taste, but they are comf-tastic on the ride. Correction: threads are spun from the Lorax's truffula trees – silky smooth and still breathable and stretchy. Oooh, I like adjustability of the wind shirt at the bust and waist… Successfully executed getting dressed for rides on bike without playing scarf wheel hangman. And I like thumbholes. And Red. And Reflective Fabrics!
More Details and Opinions… If you must.
Enough quickie overviews and product data from the Lululemon Pedal Power website. So let's get serious, velodactyls! (Or not.) The Lululemon Pedal Power line is definitely a quality product suitable for real autumn weather – I'm talking crisp mornings and falling leaves, windy winds, and maybe a touch of rain. This stuff may be pricy, but I would for sure put it on my back-to-school (grown-ups get those too, right?) wish list, since I'm "funemployed" at the moment. Overall, everything looks chic, can take a bit of rain/muddy water, and is definitely passable attire in a business-casual work environment. Me thinks some photo-narration is in order… good thing I have bikey friends with cameras and smahtphones! Ready… set… GO:
For the Pedal Power Wind Shirt, it definitely cuts out the wind and did the trick on an overcast day, but – per usual Hawaii weather protocol – it did make me sweaty from the inside despite the lightweight material. The shirt is a bit shiny, and does pass for a great looking "elegant" women's commuter blouse – but not passable if your workplace is a skirt-suit and heels type of gig. Reflective detailing on the cuffs can be unrolled during the commute for extra flare and reflective visibility! The shirt zips up and has two pull cords – making a very flattering fit, but they can dig into the middle of your back at times. It also comes in black or white.
Lululemon's Pedal Power Pants and Longsleeve were perfect for comfy "fall/winter" cruising about town. Here I am before taking off for a 15 minute ride to my part-time day job at the local Unicorn Petting Zoo. The Pedal Power Longsleeve was definitely comfy, very long (no instances of people shouting "crack kills!" on this commuter) and very red. It comes in black, white, red, and purple – and the sizing was a bit large for my taste. I followed the Lululemon Sizing guide, but it seems comfort is the keyword with this piece. The floppy collar buttons all the way up to protect your neck for those speedy morning downhills and I loved the thumbholes! Again, despite the breathable panels installed from elbow to armpit to ribcage, I still found myself needing to wash this shirt after one day of warmish fall commuting in Honolulu. When I wore this shirt, guys in the office said, "You look very cozy today!"
Awww, Pants! The pants were definitely my favorite and most useful. Even though they were loose in the butt (compare model from Lululemon site with bunchy-butt Mir) they fit in the hips and waist. The inseam was not too short since the leg opening is tapered at the bottom, no dragging hems for Shorty McMidge Legs over here! And I even got compliments on these threads at the office from the women and men – passable as business casual! Some funny things about the Pedal Power Pants included a seam that runs along the middle of your knee cap allowing for a gusseted stretchy knee panel and a seam going right through the crotch like a normal pair of jeans. Works well on a hybrid/upright type of commuter bike, but I don't think I would last long on the seam on a road bike! My favorite disco-bling was the reflective panels at the ankle strap and pockets – both can be buttoned into either stealth office mode or flashy night-time ride mode! Personally, I left it bling-side out all. the. friggin'. time!
So there you have it – for the fashion-conscious commuting ladies out there, if you've got cash to spend on some high-quality threads, hit up the Lululemon Pedal Power line for some fall fancies. Hope you enjoyed the review… cross your fingers for more butt shots from RL and Hermes at Interbike 2012!

Forget about getting a building named after yourself. The cash-strapped Scripps Institution of Oceanography is offering what might be an even better deal to someone looking to make a mark in history: A rare hydrothermal vent worm will forever be emblazoned with your name if you fork over $50,000.
For those on a smaller budget, a mere $15,000 will land you in the annals of marine biology as the namesake of an orange, speckled nudibranch, also known as a sea slug.
Across the world, "name a species" fundraisers are spreading into a variety of scientific fields. In recent years, donors have vied for the rights to grant names to frog and shark species, among others.
To supporters, naming programs are appropriate ways to raise money and draw attention to science during times of major financial stress. But critics see plenty of potential for abuse.
"There are concerns that profiteering is inappropriate," says Joe Mendelson, curator of herpetology, the study of reptiles and amphibians, at Zoo Atlanta. "There are people out in the taxonomy community who say as soon as there's money involved, this is flat-out wrong."
So far, profits from name-a-species promotions have run the gamut from huge to modest. The biggest bounties came in 2005, when an online casino donated $650,000 to name a monkey species, and last year, an ocean-species naming auction in Monaco raised $2 million for research. The African nation of Rwanda, meanwhile, raises funds through a high-profile program that names individual gorillas each year.
At least one other fundraiser is struggling, however. Amphibian Ark, a preservation organization, has been disappointed by its efforts to auction the rights to name frog species. One online auction last month raised just $5,500, says program director Kevin Zippel, while this month's has only reached $2,000 so far. "We desperately need money to try to save amphibian species," says Mr. Zippel, who points to estimates suggesting 2,000 to 3,000 of the species are in danger of extinction. "We're looking at all the options that are open to us."
While federal support for science has remained steady since 2004, reaching $57.4 billion this year, it's actually gone down when inflation is taken into account, says Kei Koizumi, director of the American Association for the Advancement of Science's R&D budget and policy program. "Every year there's a little scr less money to go around," he says.
"Institutions that rely on federal funds to keep their research going are finding it much tougher to get that money and are having to get creative in either finding other sources or rethinking what kinds of research they do."
At Scripps Institution, part of the University of California, San Diego, state cutbacks to research funding forced officials to eliminate the $300,000 in annual funding for its libraries of preserved collections, says Lawrance Bailey, senior director of development. The other alternative was to cut staff.
The libraries hold millions of sea creatures, rocks, and fossils. To keep the libraries functioning and accepting new specimens, the institution turned to fundraising. But thousands of preserved species "aren't as sexy as funding an expedition or a project to address climate change," Mr. Bailey says.
Enter the name-a-species program, despite the objections of some older Scripps scientists who "felt that this was selling out, that to name a species in return for a gift was tasteless at a minimum," he says.
Scientists often name species after a trait like color or habitat, but they have a long history of naming species after each other – although self-naming is frowned upon – or for friends and family. Greg Rouse, professor of marine biology at Scripps Institution, says he recently named a sea worm Mesonerilla neridae after his girlfriend, Nerida. It may not sound like a traditional romantic gesture, but "she really liked it," he says. "She was there when we discovered it."
Famous people get their share of names too. For example, a pair of US entomologists named three slime-mold beetle species after George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, and Donald Rumsfeld, former secretary of defense. It wasn't a joke: Mr. Bush called to thank one of the entomologists, who said he wished to honor the three men.
Several spiders are named for Orson Welles movies, while another spider has the cinematic name of Apopyllus now.
At Scripps Institution, naming rights to three worms have sold so far, one for $10,000 and two for $5,000. The buyers include a high school teacher, a local branch of a telephone manufacturer, and a woman who bought the name as an anniversary gift for her husband.
A total of $20,000 in donations may not seem like much. But Bailey isn't discouraged. "Considering that we're naming lowly invertebrates," he says, "I think we've done OK."

As a recently graduated student, I had a lot of free time. After doing some research about Projects Abroad I decided to volunteer on the Medicine project in Nepal. As a pre-medical student, I was interested in gaining experience working in a hospital.
After convincing my parents, I could prepare for my trip to Nepal. The Projects Abroad team was incredibly friendly. Whenever I had any questions, I sent an email to the team and they answered in a reasonable amount of time. The process is also quite helpful; it guides you to prepare for the trip so that you have everything you need.
The first thing you notice as you get off the plane is that it is hot, very hot. I was at Nepal from the end of July to mid-August and I had got there at the very end of the extreme heat that Nepal experiences. I had read online about the extreme heat and I had braced myself for it, but it is exceptionally unexpected. It is much better when it rains, and it frequently does.
Arriving in Nepal
After I landed in Kathmandu, I spent a day at Hotel Excelsior. It was quite a nerve-racking night. I was all alone in a foreign country. I had never really felt that alone before. The director, however, was extremely friendly. The next day, I left extremely early to get on a tourist bus for the 6 hour drive to Chitwan. It was a gruelling trip.
It was extremely warm in the bus and the ride was bumpy. We stopped around half way to take a break. Something that made up for the arduous trip, however, was the view out the window. Kathmandu is at a quite high elevation. To get to Chitwan, you have to climb over the mountain and then go down. The views of the mountains were amazing and breath-taking.
I stayed with Binod and his family and had two roommates. The room I stayed in was at the top of the house and it led out to a balcony that had a beautiful view. The bathroom had a toilet and shower, which only had cold water but this was a relief from the hot weather of Nepal. The room I stayed in had a bed with a pillow and a thin bed mat. The room also had two fans. It was generally a good experience.
My Medicine placement
My day started at 7am. I ate the meal prepared for me - usually a pancake with an egg, sometimes noodles - and was off to my placement. You can walk, which takes a long time, or take the "tuk-tuk". Tuk-tuks are a form of public transportation. At my placement I observed the nurses and doctors, and there were times I even got to help. I usually ate lunch at 12:30 either at the hospital canteen (which had cheaper food) or restaurants outside. At the end of the work day 4pm, I went to the hotel everyone hung out at or went home.
During my three weeks at Nepal, I was in the ER, sample collection, maternity ward and the operating theatre. In the ER, I generally observed and shadowed doctors and nurses. I brought my own gloves and had it handy at all times so that if the nurses needed my help, I was always ready. In sample collection, I met a very nice medical student who helped teach me how to collect blood samples. It was rather nerve-wracking but I learnt a lot.
In the maternity ward, I helped set up the beds and observed rotations. Rotations are always done in English so it is easy to follow along. I got to observe an emergency C-section (which is very common in Nepal). I also got to observe a natural birth.
A lot of the food in Nepal is very spicy, so if you like spicy food you will enjoy it a lot. I value all the experiences I had in Nepal - from meeting new people to experiencing new things - everything was exciting and I am so glad I went.
I hope to return some day and volunteer with Projects Abroad.

MILPITAS, Calif., September 10, 2007-SanDisk® Corporation (NASDAQ:SNDK), the second largest seller of MP3 players in the United States, today announced the new Sansa® View - a video MP3 player with a vast array of features and generous capacity, at an unbeatable price. The sleek-looking Sansa View marries the finest MP3 player attributes with full-motion video support (typically found in larger portable media players (PMPs)), a larger screen, long battery life and generous capacity-all in a thin, easy-to-carry package. Expected to be available in October, the Sansa View will carry a manufacturer's suggested retail price of $199.99 MSRP* for a 16GB** flash-based player and $149.99 for the 8GB, far surpassing the competition with respect to value and price.
A significant step-up from the company's award-winning Sansa e200 music player series, the slim Sansa View features music, photos, FM radio and audio books, plus easy video transferring capabilities and hefty memory capabilities of up to 24GB (by using an optional 8GB microSD/microSDHC card).***
"The Sansa View is a new video MP3 player that combines all of the great characteristics of a MP3 player with the video capabilities of a PMP, and packs it into a pocketable device," said Eric Bone, vice president of marketing for SanDisk's Sansa audio/video product line. "What's more, we're once again showing that category-leading technology can still be very affordable."
SanDisk's Sansa View video player innovates beyond the typical video loading procedure, making it easy for consumers to transfer videos natively using widely available software. Most popular formats are supported via embedded player functionality (H.264, WMV and MPEG4), or via a one-time software download of the Sansa Media Converter which quickly transcodes numerous video files, including DivX.
Consumers can purchase and insert one of SanDisk's microSD/microSDHC cards to play up to 24GB of music, video and photos on their Sansa View. (Today, SanDisk has announced microSD/microSDHC card capacities of up to 8GB.) In addition, the microSD card allows users to easily move their content to a cell phone or other mobile device.
A MP3 player at its core, the Sansa View device comes equipped with all the soup-to-nuts features typically found in the Sansa audio line. The smooth, backlit scroll wheel and vibrant 2.4" widescreen display make it easy to navigate to: a music library; video collection; digital photos; digital FM radio with 20 pre-sets; an integrated microphone and voice recording, and Audible audiobooks.
The device supports many music download and subscription services, including Rhapsody To Go®, Napster, eMusic and others.
The Sansa View player will come in two capacities-8GB and 16GB-and is expected to be available from retailers in the U.S. in early fall with other regions to follow shortly thereafter.

The Sansa View was first announced last January at CES. In June, SanDisk decided to re-scope the product to develop a player with new features and functionality that best suit current consumer interests.
SanDisk is the original inventor of flash storage cards and is the world's largest supplier of flash data storage card products, using its patented, high-density flash memory and controller technology. SanDisk is headquartered in Milpitas, CA and has operations worldwide, with more than half its sales outside the U.S.
In addition to holding thousands of songs, the Sansa View includes a plethora of features to enhance the listening and viewing experience.

The Americano celebrates the rich flavor of espresso. It's a simple drink, yet must still be made with care. Our baristas immediately pour two espresso shots, the second they are pulled, into your cup and then quickly pour hot water over the top to produce a light layer of crema. The result is a wonderfully rich cup, with the depth and nuances that only freshly ground espresso can boast.

Thank you for purchasing our solution for IVT / Bosch / Buderus / Junkers heat pumps using the H1 interface. This interface is easy to install and supports upgradable firmware to enable for coming features. The H1 interface has to be synchronized (teamed) with your specific version of Rego1000. This will happen automatically at first power up of heat pump. Shortly after H1 har been synchronized there is a risk that communication problem alarms will be raised. To avoid that, restart the heatpump after 2 minutes of the first start with the interface. After synchronisation is performed it will be no alarms on power up of heat pump.
Steps to install interface
1. Power down the heat pump and open the front cover and the cover for the electrical parts.
2. Pull down the interface cable from a cable-hole on the heatpump top.
3. Locate the I/O card as pictured below.
4. Connect the 4 wire cable as instructed.
5. Power up the heat pump. (The interface LED will first lit continously for about 10 seconds and then blink irregular when syncronized successfully)
6. After about 2 minutes, power down the heatpump once more and then power it up again (This is to avoid alarms after H1-Rego1000 has syncronized/teamed with your Rego1000)
- Code: Select all
Colour function Plint no
Black Ground 35
Green can L 36
Yellow can H 37
Red +12v 38
The cable is connected to the closest black plint. (plint no 35-38)
Be very careful and double check that wires are conneted correct and are not loose.
The Interface connected to standard size Greenline heat pumps with PXB i/o board
The Interface connected to larger Greenline heat pumps with PEL i/o board
For easier access, the black connector can be pulled off.
Correct behaviour
At FIRST power up of heat pump the LED flashes 12 times and then irregular for 6 seconds, Then LED lit continuously for about 8-15 seconds.
After that it should flash irregular and fast continuously.
At power AFTER the first start up of heat pump the LED flashes 12 times and after that irregular continuously.
Failing behaviour
LED flashes 12 times and then stops for 1 second, an repeat again (The firmware is missing, interface is in boot loader status, try to upgrade interface using StatLink)
LED flashes 12 times and then stops for 6 second, an repeat again (The interface cannot communicate with CAN bus correctly, check connections to heatpump)
LED is not lighting up. (No power to interface or broken interface)

My mate shook me awake. "Someone's in the house! Someone's in the house!" Half whispering, half screaming. Her body curled around the five-month old attached to her breast.
Groggily, I rose and walked out of our bedroom. I was dumbfounded by the sight of a woman I didn't know walking across my kitchen, past me, out the back door. I stumbled behind her, my brain trying to make sense of it. She must have gotten confused and wandered into the wrong house, I thought. Maybe she's a process server, looking for the attorney that lives upstairs. It's not the only time my mind has created and then clung to an absurd explanation for what would otherwise be an unbelievable event to which I bore witness.
Once, on my way to a trailhead in Humboldt County, I came around a corner and found myself face to face with a pair of mountain lions. They must have escaped from the circus, I concluded ridiculously. The same sort of addled thoughts plagued me as I watched this stranger amble off my back deck and down the driveway along side my house. How unusual, I thought, she has a brightly colored messenger bag just like my brightly colored custom-made messenger bag.
My mate's bark snapped me out of it: "She's got our stuff!"
I finally got it: We were being robbed.
"Call the cops!" I yelled as I ran for the front door.
I made it out the door and took up a position between the gate and the would-be burglar, just as she came around the side of the house.
She paused. Then she started talking.
"I dropped all the stuff," she said, "it's all back there." She advanced a step.
The Mission was just coming out of the murk that passes for night in the city. Still. Quiet. Chorizo and diesel faintly in the air. I took stock.
She was not a healthy looking person. Even in the dim light of morning I could make out a patchwork of open sores and scabs across her face. I was barefoot, commando, braless, my mammaries swaying to and fro, clad only in my pink, flannel pajamas emblazoned with pictures of Martinis and Manhattans and the words "cocktail hour" in neat, art-deco style script. I needed back up.
"YOU CAME INTO OUR HOUSE!" I yelled, hoping to wake some neighbors. "WE HAVE A CHILD AND YOU CAME INTO OUR HOUSE!" Come on… someone. Wake up. Get out here.
She took another step toward me. I brought my hands to her chest and shoved her back. I yelled again, "WE HAVE A CHILD AND YOU BROKE INTO OUR HOUSE!"
"But I'm going now, lady," she reasoned, "I left the stuff and I'm going."
"THE POLICE ARE COMING," I screamed, "YOU'RE GOING TO JAIL!"
It was the wrong thing to say. Her eyes widened in fear and understanding. I realized what I'd done. I'd forced her to make a move. She pushed off quickly, trying to dash around me and out the gate. I stepped towards her, swung my arm in in a massive clothesline and connected. Her body was suspended for a moment, perfectly horizontal. Head west, feet east. She was almost bird like, with her addiction hollowed bones and momentary flight. Then the moment passed. Her body returned to earth in a thud, her heals and head landing simultaneously.
I let my weight come down on top of her. Her hand came up. I saw something in it. I ripped it open. A lighter. I tore it out of her hand. Threw it across the yard. I turned back to her, wrapped my arm around her neck and cranked.
"Lady!" She gasped, "I can't breathe!"
"YOU SHUT THE FUCK UP!" I yelled, inches from her ear, "YOU CAME INTO MY HOUSE! YOU SHUT THE FUCK UP!"
"Lady! Lady, please! I can't breathe!"
"IF YOU CAN TALK, YOU CAN BREATHE!" I screamed, "NOW SHUT THE FUCK UP!"
I smashed her face into the dirt with my free hand. Saw movement out of the corner of my eye. Looked up. A man walking by on the sidewalk. Dry paint spatters on his overalls and thick, denim jacket. Coffee in a Styrofoam cup. "Morning!" He said cheerfully, as he smiled and walked passed us. Just another day in the Mission. A distant part of me wondered what his mind had come up with to explain the sight of a woman in pink, flannel cocktail hour pajamas wrestling with another on the front lawn at dawn.
"Please," She said again, her voice small, gasping beneath me. "Please let me up."
I lifted her up and half threw, half shoved, her into a sitting position, her back against our fence. "If you move," I growled, "I will fucking beat you to death." She nodded, taking big, gulping breaths.
We regarded each other for a moment. I could see the engine of addiction driving the gears of manipulation. I strained for the sound of sirens.
"You're lucky," I told her, "lesser people would just kill you right now."
"I know," she agreed enthusiastically, "I know."
"You need help," I told her.
She saw her chance. "I know," She said. "I know. But jail…jail is not the answer! Every time I got to jail, it sets me back. Every time. It sets me back."
I could sense her body making little micro-movements. Adjusting the distribution of weight, tensing here, relaxing there. Preparing to slip through whatever crack she could manipulate into existence.
I gazed down at her, coldly. "You are not making me more liberal right now."
She deflated. She saw it was useless. In the distance, sirens.
After what seemed like days, the sirens were down the street, then in front of my house. Two officers got out of the car. They knew her on site. They called her by name. They labeled her a crack whore.
One of the officers was female. I opined to that robbing houses in this neighborhood seemed awfully risky. We were smack in the middle of a turf war between two rival gangs: the Norteños and the Sureños. Pick the wrong house, get shot. "They would be doing her a favor," said the officer, as she collected her notebook, slipped her pen into a pocket and her nightstick into its holder.
"You should go shower," she said as she turned to go, "I hate touching her."

Fuck you, Dick. Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you. Don't even bother going to his website - you'll inevitable vomit all over your computer screen.
Recently, I saw his book in a Barnes & Noble and was highly repulsed. Unfortunately, I didn't have my "THIS INSULTS WOMEN" stickers at the time, or else I would've slapped a couple of them on his stupid fucking cover. Next time I'm in a bookstore, it's on.

The latest execution in the 'Saving The Nation' campaign kicks off with the former Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at Cambridge University giving a lecture on how he has "finally calculated and formulised the exact conditions needed to generate a super massive black hole".
After an audience member asks what Hawking will do with his discovery, the ad cuts to Gio Compario being sucked into a black hole.
Dare created the ad and media planning and buying has been handled by Carat.
Hawking said: "I confess I am a fan of the Gocompare.com adverts, but I am also an opera fan, so I was delighted to be given the opportunity to help save the nation and silence Gio. I hope the public find it as funny as I did."
The execution is drawing attention to the comparison website's claim that it can save people up to £299 on their car insurance.

Obama now looks at Kerry for secretary of State
After the withdrawal of Susan Rice, attention now shifts to the prospect of Secretary of State John Kerry.
Kerry, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, has been considered a leading contender for the post along with Rice.
With current Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton set to retire soon, President Obama is looking at a revamp of his national security headed into his second term.
The CIA slot is open -- thanks to the David Petraeus sex scandal -- and there are reports that Defense Secretary Leon Panetta may retire sooner rather than later. Former senator Chuck Hagel is said to be in line for the next Pentagon opening.
As for secretary of State, Rice announced Thursday that she is dropping out of the race. Senate Republicans had criticized her for comments after the Sept. 11 attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya, setting up the prospect of a tough Senate confirmation fight that Rice cited in her withdrawal letter to Obama.
That would seem to open the door for Kerry. Obama's team hasn't said much about second term personnel openings, so there could be a mystery candidate who has received less attention (national security adviser Tom Donilon, perhaps?).
Whatever happens, Kerry -- the 2004 Democratic presidential nominee -- has already played a large role in Obama's political life.
It was Kerry who picked Obama, then an Illinois legislator seeking a U.S. Senate seat, to give the keynote address at the 2004 Democratic Convention. That speech launched Obama's national political career.
When Obama sought the presidency in 2008, Kerry endorsed him at a key moment -- after Obama lost the New Hampshire primary to Hillary Rodham Clinton.
Now the question is whether Obama will pick Kerry.

Having posted the invite early last month, Parking kft., a wholly owned subsidiary of the city administration, has already collected more than 2,300 suggestions, available on a downloadable Excel sheet. At present, the default name is "KKKR," the Hungarian acronym for Bicycle Public Transport System. Definitely not as cute or as catchy as some of the existing bike-sharing names around the world: Vélib (Paris), DecoBike (Miami Beach) Nice Ride (Minneapolis) or Ecobici (Mexico City).
Not surprisingly, the great majority of submitted proposals involve a wordplay in the Hungarian language. That's fair enough. However, because Hungarian is such an oddball language, many of these names will go over the heads of non-Hungarian speakers, who will presumably constitute a small but important share of the system's target market. Even worse, some of the names would give non-Hungarians a misleading idea of what they refer to.
In the first category would be suggestions such as "Kerékváros," an amalgam of one of the many words for bicycle (kerékpár) and the word for city (város). It's good wordplay and descriptive of the system, but if you don't have specific knowledge of the magyar tongue, you won't get it.
Under the latter category of potentially misleading names are a few amusing examples. For instance, more than a couple sound -- at least to my American ears -- like names for a strip club or gay bikers' bar:
- BuBi
- Hop on me
- BooDbike
- rollbud
- joint bike
- Overdose Bike (probably not one of the top contenders ...)
- BikeKV -- I assume this is an allusion to Budapest Public Transport Co, popularly known by its Hungarian acronym "BKV." The problem with this is that the BKV, particularly at this point in time, is so widely loathed by the public that the connection would do much more harm than good. During the last two years, BKV became widely known as a hotbed of financial corruption, so much so that a public prosecutor litigating a case against one of the key perpetrators called it an "organised criminal enterprise."
- PubBike -- When I first saw this, I automatically assumed it was a simple combination of "pub" and "bike," meaning an ideal mode of transport for the pub crawler who doesn't want to risk a citation for drunk driving. On further consideration, I can see that it's more likely a shortening of "public bike." My initial interpretation probably says more about me than the person who submitted the idea.
- Nyeregbe magyar! -- In the current political climate, there had to be a few jingoisitic submissions. Literally it means (something like), "Into the saddle, Hungarian!" It's a play on the first words of the revolutionary National Poem by Sándor Petöfi. "Talpra Magyar ..." ("On your feet, Hungarian ...").
- BiciPest
- VeloPest
- BiCity
- BikeBud (this one could be understood as "Bike Budapest" or "Bike Friend")
- FreeCikli
