Teva Clipless Prototype
Teva have been making serious in-roads to the mountain bike market in the past couple of years with their flat pedal shoes, especially with their high end Link which has fast become a strong favourite for many riders using flat pedals in all genres. So it was perhaps inevitable that the ambitious company would sooner or later look at the clipless shoe market and decide that they wanted a piece of the action, much as Five Ten did a few years ago. As it happened it was sooner, and they had the first prototype available for us to look at here at Eurobike. We took some time to sit down with Giles Cundell from Teva to see what influences had led to the new shoe, and to see when we could expect to see it on the shelves of your local bike store.
Coming from the world of watersports, Teva had zero experience of the mountain bike market just a few short years ago. Yet they're keen to highlight this worked to their advantage as it allowed them to start with a clean slate and design a shoe from the ground up. As a result of this successful approach they're also keen to highlight that it's exactly the same development route taken with this as yet unnamed clipless offering. To ensure that they were able to design the ultimate shoe they enlisted Crankbrothers in a collaboration which allows both companies to design in mating features to their products for symbiotic compatibility.
This resulted in some features which we can show you, and a couple which we can't. Firstly, these shoes are going to be targeted at the lucrative all-mountain market although using the same shoes across both downhill and all-mountain regularly ourselves we feel that these would hold up well as a gravity shoe should you be that way inclined. Secondly, the shoes are stiff. This is thanks to a fibreglass shank stretching virtually from toe to heel on which the rest of the shoe is built. This unit also incorporates plastic plates on which the shoe rests when clipped in to reduce the wear on this part of the shoe and thus ensure that the shoe doesn't start to feel baggy over time. Also of note in this area is a stainless steel plate which came from the Crankbrothers side as the wings can often dig into the plastic of other shoes in this area.
As with the Link and other shoes in their bike range this will have a Spider rubber sole, their tacky rubber interpretation, still useful here for when you inevitably end up riding a section unclipped. A priority was to keep the visuals associated with their existing range, and a key part of this was a totally flat sole when seen in profile, as with any skate shoe. But, determined to keep traction high when off the bike, lugs were inset to the sole to do so. We'll be keep to see how these work on the trail. One surprising aspect to come up in the conversation was the incorporation of technology from basketball which is down to alleged similarities between the way feet move around in shoes in both sports.
• Designed in conjunction with Crankbrothers for all-mountain use
• Stiff shank, unique plastic anti-wear section around pedal & stainless steel wear plates
• Lightened construction compared to Link: less padding around the tongue and less EVA in the midsole
• Spider rubber sole with inset lugs to provide off-bike traction while keeping strong visuals
• Unique cleat attachment method
• Available July/August 2013
Crankbrothers Mallet DH
Crankbrothers also had something new on display at Eurobike 2012. After a season of testing the Mallet DH, first shown at Sea Otter, the production versions are now ready to be released. Having created the Mallet Mk3 Crankbrothers found that their sponsored gravity riders were wanting a wider body than the low profile mk3 could provide, citing that wider downhill shoes felt a little unsupported on the edge of the pedal. To counter this they went back to the drawing board and using the outline of the old mk2, they filled it with the engineering elements of the mk3 while also removing every last trace of unnecessary material. What this means is a much stronger axle, 5mm longer on this Mallet DH, and a needle-roller bearing inboard augmented with a DU bush at the outboard end of the body combined with weight not much greater than that of the standard Mallet. This increased Q-factor provides greater clearance to cranks when using bulkier DH shoes. The seals employed are also improved which should reduce the frequency of servicing for downhillers and their regular jet washing.
Also carried over from the Mallet 3 (the top tier mk3 Mallet) are the stronger cast wings which form the clipless mechanism. Larger diameter springs are reverse wound over earlier pedals to prevent binding on the axle and are slightly stiffer on the DH to provide a sharper feeling entry and release.
• Wider body apes larger dimensions of the earlier Mallet pedals
• Q-factor is increased by 5mm on each pedal thanks to longer axle
• Needle roller bearing and bush are protected by improved sealing
• Stonger cast steel wings
• Available now
As we now have a set of these to test out we'll be fitting them to a bike just as soon as we get back to home shores. We will of course provide an update on they're performing once we've had some meaningful time on them.

pedals look great, tevas dont this time...eh, shouldnt need a collab i have to say...all spd pedals should fit perfectly all spd shoes and vice versa.

I think its more to do with the colour scheme

SPD stands for Shimano Pedal Dynamics. Where the Mallet's are a clipless pedal with their own cleat design. I don't see why either of these won't be compatible with any shoe or pedal design
+ 2
(Sep 2, 2012 at 10:37)
, ascurtis, langleyi, JoeKre...im being too ambiguous for you i think....5.10s and Shimano are the most common shoes in the mountainbiking world for a very good reason...and 5.10s are SPD compatible. I have both, i wouldnt mind a pair of mallets or tevas, but i want things to be compatible with what i already have.
+ 3
(Sep 2, 2012 at 10:49)
I agree with you completely. What I was pointing out is that SPD is a specific Shimano term, e.g. same as Stealth Rubber for Five Ten. But most people just call all clipless pedals/shoes SPD's. When they're not.
+ 2
(Sep 2, 2012 at 10:59)
Did anyone say they weren't SPD compatible? No. It is the same two bolt pattern. They just designed them with crk bros, because perhaps a pedal manufacturer might have something to say about shoe design.
Shoes look sick, unlike the moon boots that are 5.10's.

(Sep 2, 2012 at 12:09)
well, im glad they FINALLY WANTED TO BEEF UP THEIR AXLES.. only snapped twice within the same month...

(Sep 2, 2012 at 15:33)
Wtf.. ofcourse 5.10's are SPD compatable... SPD is the cleat/pedal interface. 5.10 is a shoe manufacturer. Screw a set of SPD cleats into your sandals and bam, SPD compatable.
+ 2
(Sep 2, 2012 at 16:43)
mallets arent always the best match for some 5.10 models (its the same effect as the cleat sitting too deep in the shoe) but it isnt the 5.10s its the mallets!...google it...now weve got a collab with teva...maybe just a coincidence...who knows..

(Sep 2, 2012 at 16:47)
maybe it depends on far youve got the pins sticking out on the mallets i dont know

(Sep 2, 2012 at 10:08)
Is there a reason they didn't show the bottom of the shoe without the pedal attached?

Because it looks the same as all other spd shoes?

(Sep 2, 2012 at 11:08)
Why can't we get a picture of the bottom of these shoes without a pedal clipped to them?
+ 5
(Sep 3, 2012 at 6:37)
because the cleats are actually baby bunnies that you squish into the pedals. Very graphic for the younger members of the audience.

(Sep 2, 2012 at 9:58)
Crank Brothers needs to kill the red anodized components. They need to issue their high end stuff in more than just red. If you have a green bike you can't add red pedals = Christmas bike! I like the shoes, just make them black!
+ 8
(Sep 2, 2012 at 10:11)
I don't think they should "kill" red, they should just offer all colors for all models. Nothing wrong with a Christmas bike.
+ 2
(Sep 2, 2012 at 10:14)
Yeah, agreed. I had a Trek Session that looked dope with red mallet 3s. They just need to release three colors a season at least.
+ 1
(Sep 2, 2012 at 10:49)
red was a choice back at the beginning as people thought 'red pedals are spotted the easiest when your trying to get your feet back on them'. but very few freeriders actually sport red pedals and they dont clip in either. so who knows why they do this now.

(Sep 2, 2012 at 12:20)
And who actually looks down to put a foot back on the pedal?

"At least three colours a season" what is this? vogue? oh wait. yes, welcome to pinkbike.

I bought a pair of Teva Links this season and I must say they are super comfortable, probably the most comfortable bike shoe I have worn. Although this really has nothing to do with clipless shoes, the Links arent the grippiest of shoes and I found I lose my footing much more then I did with my Shimano AM shoes, which pretty much never happened. These new shoes will be great if they are as comfortable as the Links and there wont be any worry of losing your footing.
+ 1
(Sep 2, 2012 at 10:59)
Well,I have had 3 pairs of crank bros pedals and the are easy to use. The pedals cast bodies should stand up better to wear,but the releases due to pedal strikes will keep me from buying any products from them. I have had one of their headsets and give that a thumbs down along with their kronolog post. Their warranty dept. is sub par also. I just think there are better places and products,too spend your cash.
+ 2
(Sep 2, 2012 at 11:50)
I dont know what you ride, but in my 5 years of riding downhill I've only ever hit the center of my pedal body once, I've only really clipped the edges. Not to mention it would have to be a very specific impact to unclip you, you'd have to hit the back tab alone. I think you're making a problem where there isnt one. I'm not saying anything about their other stuff because it has a bad rep. but from my experience mallets are one of the few things they do well.
+ 1
(Sep 2, 2012 at 12:22)
you must not have rocky enough terrain, if your a shore guy one run down neds and your mallets are gone

(Sep 2, 2012 at 20:03)
@Nobel. We dont have rocks in Santa Cruz. Just sweet beautiful loam and organic avocados. The "local" park riding has some good rocks though. Our terrain doesnt allow us to make judgements regarding failures due to rain or rocks.

@Circes. Northstar has some pretty gnar rocks though, that's what I was thinking of when I made my comments.

(Sep 2, 2012 at 2:32)
Two things I look for when buying new shoes: 1. They are not wight, red dirt here kills them. and 2. they have grip to climb up steep bits.
No thanks Teva.
Like the new mallets though.

i really like the look of the pedals! and have been thinking about these fora while. now they are improved....think ill be on the lookout for a local retailer!

(Sep 3, 2012 at 8:50)
I absolutely agree to those people that said, " Crank Brothers should have a pedal that is SPD compatible". Not using SPD in the biking world and having your own cleats design is like using english as a 2nd language.

NEW YORK (MarketWatch) — Ten-year Treasury yields traded around 1.85% on Thursday, as the market prepared for an early closing and Cypriot banks reopened smoothly, stemming the flight to safety.
A run on banks, which many investors had feared could spread to other euro-zone financially stressed euro-zone countries after the unpopular deposit tax became part of the Cyprus bailout, didn't materialize. That could be because of temporary capital controls, which include restricting daily withdrawals to 300 euros.
The Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association (Sifma) has recommended that the U.S. fixed-income market close at 2 p.m. on Thursday and remain shut on Friday for trading of dollar-denominated securities. The stock market is also closed on Friday.
Europe week ahead: Central banks
Meetings by the European Central Bank, the Bank of Japan and the Bank of England will dominate the market next week as the troubles of Italy and Cyprus rumble on in the background.
Yields on the benchmark 10-year U.S. Treasury note US:10_YEAR rose 1 basis point to 1.86%. Those yields broke out of a tight range on Wednesday, falling 7 basis points as another attempt to form a governing alliance in Italy failed. Italy hasn't been able to form a coalition since its inconclusive parliamentary elections a month ago.
Yields move inversely to prices and one basis point is one one-hundredth of a percentage point.
"Today, I think that there's a little bit of a relief trade going on in Europe," said Robert Tipp, chief investment strategist at Prudential Fixed Income. "Flight-to-quality bit is coming out of the market here," he said, adding that it wasn't a big move.
Tipp said today's slight selloff should be taken in context of the recent rally. Treasurys have been underperforming other G3 bond markets recently, as bunds rallied as investors fled peripheral debt and Japanese government debt rallied on anticipated buying by the Bank of Japan, he said.
"Treasurys have really began to stand out as cheap as relative to other government bond markets. So I think last handful of days we've seen a catch-up rally in Treasurys," said Tipp.
Yields on the 10-year German bund TMBMKDE-10Y, +0.00% were 1.27% and yields on the 10-year Japanese bond TMBMKJP-10Y, +10.11% were 0.517%.
"In general, the safe haven flows are easing off a bit because events in Europe are calming down," said Paul Ashworth, chief U.S. economist at Capital Economics, referring to the relatively smooth reopening of banks in Cyprus in the wake of its bailout deal.
The U.S. Treasury Department sold $29 billion in 7-year debt on Thursday at a yield of 1.248%, the lowest since December's auction. Analysts at Nomura gave the auction, which was held early because of market closings, a B- grade.
Bidders offered to buy 2.56 times the amount of debt sold, less than the average of 2.66 times in the last six auctions. Indirect bidders including foreign central banks bought 35.5%, less than the 37.3% average in recent sales. Direct bidders like domestic money managers purchased another 19.5%, compared with an average of 19.3%.
Investors remain short the market, though on average less short than last week, according to Stone & McCarthy Research Associates' U.S. Portfolio Survey. "Their near-term rate outlook has not improved, but the exceptionally range-bound nature of rates over the past week before today appears to have produced more of a wait-and-see mentality, allowing Survey participants to ease up slightly on their bearish positions ahead of month-end," Stone & McCarthy analysts wrote about the survey.
Domestic data were mixed on Thursday, as initial jobless claims for the week ended March 23 were the highest since mid-February and fourth-quarter U.S. growth was revised higher to 0.4% from 0.1% as corporate profits soared.
Yields on the 30-year U.S. bond US:30_YEAR rose 1 basis point to 3.1% and yields on the five-year note US:5_YEAR rose 1 basis point to 0.764%.
U.S. stocks were up as the S&P 500 Index SPX, +0.11% finally beat its all-time closing high on an intraday basis.

In it, but not of it. TPM DC
Michele Bachmann: No Boehner Debt Ceiling Plan For Me
It's not a huge surprise that Bachmann would opposed Boehner's plan. She's made refusing to vote for an increase in the debt ceiling a key tenet of her campaign so far, and polls have shown GOP primary voters like what she's selling.
For Boehner, Bachmann's opposition to his plan is another sign of the difficulty he faces uniting his party over any plan to keep the nation from default. Bachmann is the leader of the House Tea Party Caucus and a vocal member of the purist conservative wing Boehner's having trouble wrangling.

Do you want to make Ohio.com your homepage?
XIf you didn't get a chance to see this eleven minute back and forth between CNN's Jessica Yellin, ex-Bushie Fran Townsend and Salon's Glenn Greewald discussing Julian Assange and WikiLeaks......I recommend it.
For discussion purposes, I transcribed a segment of the hapless Fran Townsend's response to the always razor-sharp Greenwald.
Fran Townsend: "Is he (Assange) profiting from the commission of a crime? The answer is yes. Nobody cared who Julian Assange was until he came out with these tens of thousands of documents, classified documents. So, what he seeks to do now, is to profit from that. The notion of equating him with public servants and elected officials who publish autobiographies after their government service, and profit from that, is purely outrageous. This is a guy who committed a crime. He did not do what your standard journalists do. Oh, by the way, when your other guest refers to the New York Times..... even the NY Times, when they have very sensitive classified information, would come to the government and redact it. David Sanger went on NPR after this and talked about instances when the NY Times redacted classified information from their reports because to not do so would be irresponsible."
Greenwald calls Townsend out on her two immediate lies....Assange has only released segments of 1200-some cables out of a quarter million he has in his possession....and Assange has not even been charged with a crime, let alone convicted of one. But then, that's what we would expect from a government propagandist like Townsend.
Again, if you can believe it.....the Townsend lies (which virtually all U.S. main media have circulated and continue to circulate).....aren't the worst of what she said in the CNN interview.
The worse part is the establishment understanding of the role of the media.
Just imagine Daniel Ellsberg consulting with the Nixon White House, allowing the Nixon criminals to supervise the redaction of the Pentagon Papers. It's goddamn ridiculous to even suggest it.....yet Fran Townsend claims that it's the job of the constitutional free press to first receive approval from the GOVERNMENT before printing their stories.
Earlier I blogged about the NY Times boss, Bill Keller, and how his understanding of the press is the same as Fran Townsend's....i.e., in a democratic free society in which the press has been given freedom to express itself....for the purpose of keeping the American people informed about what their government is doing in their name.....one of the jobs of that press, before printing a controversial story, is to first earn a seal of approval from the very government the press should be informing us about.
That isn't reporting, that isn't journalism, that is not honoring the Constitution.....that is collusion with the government, that is corruption, and.....that is what led the United States government to murder over 100,000 Iraqis and 4500 U.S. soldiers.
Glenn Greenwald is abso-freaking-lutely spot on.....the most disturbing part of the WikiLeaks story is how our mighty media protectors can not be distinguished any longer from our government lackeys.
Or put another way.....an overwhelming percentage of today's main media understands their role vis-a-vis government, as one of reporting on what the government hand-feeds them to report on and challenging any and all who would present evidence contrary to the government's point of view.

Robert Pattinson has reportedly spent a whopping 30,000 pounds to buy a limited edition Bentley fountain pen for his girlfriend Kristen Stewart for her 23rd birthday on Tuesday.
A source said that Stewart has always collected pens, and has a variety of stylish ones so the 26-year-old actor decided to go big for her birthday this year and brought her a limited edition white gold Tibaldi Bentley Crewe fountain pen, the Sun reported.
The source asserted that the 'Twilight' star had Stewart's name specially engraved on it with the year and wording: "From R."
The insider said that there are only 40 of these pens in the world, so it's a real collector's item.
The source added that the pens have a two-tone 18-carat yellow gold nib covered in rhodium and ruthenium and the barrel is identical to Bentley's dashboard used in their earliest car.

Tomgoss brauchte ein neues Bannerwerbung Design und hat einen Wettbewerb auf 99designs gestartet.
Aus 79 Designs von 28 Designern wurde eine Gewinner gewählt.
Tom Goss Music
I'm an independent musician based out of Washington, DC.
Music listeners and music press. My audience tends to skew older and more male than the top 40 chart folks but the design needs to be clean and fresh to engage publicity and listeners alike.
I'm developing a new website and I need a banner for the top of the website. The design needs to be in line with the rest of my imagery. I like clean design and warm colors. Right now the color on the site is blue but I can adjust that as needed. The new album has a yellow look to it. I've attached the full design of the new album for reference. I'd like to keep the feel of this in that same style.
The design needs to be engaging. It will be at the top of every page on the site.
Please reference: http://www.tomgossmusic.net/home
That's the website in progress. You'll see the blank photo at the top where I've just pasted stuff for now. Dimensions are width960 height305.
The problem I'm running into is that most of my pics are vertical and this is a very horizontal image. I need someone who can weave a couple images together seamlessly to create one cohesive image. It might be nice to use the bright lights behind it like the album cover but that's up to you.
I'd like to use 2 or 3 different images, playing, standing etc... to get a spectrum. Reference: http://soundtracktomyday.blogspot.com/
Now I don't want that design, it's done by someone who doesn't have design experience so the effect is limited but I like his idea.
I've also attached my logo for integration into the design.
Please let me know if there are any more questions.

Alan T. Jeffers, a spokesman for ExxonMobil, said by e-mail that the company had ended support "to several public policy research groups whose position on climate change could divert attention from the important discussion about how the world will secure the energy required for economic growth in an environmentally responsible manner."
Turns out that was a bit of a red herring: the UK Independent reports that Exxon has continued funding the deniers to the tune of hundreds of thousands of dollars apiece following its promise to stop doing it:
The attack against scientists supportive of the idea of man-made climate change has grown in ferocity since the leak of thousands of documents on the subject from the University of East Anglia (UEA) on the eve of the Copenhagen climate summit last December.
Free-market, anti-climate change think-tanks such as the Atlas Economic Research Foundation in the US and the International Policy Network in the UK have received grants totaling hundreds of thousands of pounds from the multinational energy company ExxonMobil. Both organizations have funded international seminars pulling together climate change deniers from across the globe.
Mother Jones offers a bit more on where Exxon's money is going:
Josh Harkinson reported on Atlas's role in the international climate change denier web in December, and Exxon topped our list of climate deniers in December. In fact, they've been the top source of climate-change-denier funding for some time, as Chris Mooney reported for Mother Jones in 2005. Exxon gave Atlas $100,000 in 2008, according to the oil company's reports, and Atlas has in turn supported at least 30 other foreign think-tanks that spread climate change misinformation. A number of these groups have been at the forefront of efforts to flog the so-called ClimateGate issue, and are now leading assaults on the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.So remember: the next time you gas up at an ExxonMobil, you're pumping dollars into the fight against sound climate science.

The Best Dietary Supplements That Just Might Save Your Life
By Nicci Micco, Anna Roufos, "These Supplements May Save Your Life…," December 2006
The truth about vitamin and mineral diet supplements.
"I am glad that you alerted me to the danger of "overdosing" with calcium. My wife needs to know this! "
Too little? Too much? Just right?
At their best, vitamin and mineral supplements help fill nutrient gaps when the diet is lacking. Supplements may be most useful to people who can't afford a variety of healthful foods (a basic multivitamin/mineral supplement taken daily can cost as little as $15 per year). People in age groups that require higher intakes for some nutrients (e.g., calcium for teenagers and postmenopausal women) may also benefit from supplement use, as can people who follow special diets for medical (e.g., lactose intolerance) or ethical (e.g., veganism) reasons. Since federal nutrition surveys suggest that considerable numbers of Americans may be falling short on a handful of specific nutrients (vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin E, calcium and magnesium), some experts recommend that all adults take a multivitamin/mineral supplement—one that delivers no more than 100 percent of recommended daily doses—as "dietary insurance." Other experts argue that these surveys don't accurately account for nutrients Americans get through fortified foods, and say that taking a supplement may enable poorer food choices ("Oh, I had a multi this morning, so I'll have a cookie, instead of an orange and almonds, for a snack").
Though the NIH panel generally cited "lack of evidence" for supplements' benefits, it emphasized that even for consistently healthy eaters, special circumstances warrant the use of supplements. Women who could become pregnant should take supplemental folic acid, as multiple studies suggest folic acid is better absorbed than food folate and helps reduce the risk of a neural-tube birth defect. Postmenopausal women are encouraged to take calcium and vitamin D supplements: the combination appears to decrease the risk of fractures. People with age-related macular degeneration—a condition in which the center of the retina deteriorates—should consider taking antioxidants. Mounting research suggests that free-radical damage accelerates the condition, and one well-designed clinical trial showed that supplementing with antioxidants, including vitamins C and E, beta carotene and zinc, slowed progression of the disease.
The irony of dietary supplements, however, is that "the people who need supplements most take them least," says Nestle. And the reverse is true: "Most supplements are taken by people whose diets are just fine without them." Indeed, research consistently shows that people who use dietary supplements generally have better diets; they exercise more and smoke less. What's more, emerging research suggests some people taking supplements are getting too much of certain nutrients.

Scrapbooking Recipes
With the holidays coming so fast we need more hours in our day. One way I've found to help is quick and easy meals. Here is one that I love to use when I have a full day.
Lazy Log Cabin Casserole:
1lb stew meat cubed
1 can of Cream of Celery
1 can of Cram of Mushroom
1 packet of Beef Onion Soup (I don't use this. I just add salt, pepper, garlic powder and dried minced onions but I'm an eye ball cook)
Toss all this in the crock pot together give it a stir put it on low and cook it for 6 - 8 hours. Home cooked meal with just a few moments prep. Put a salad bag with it and your hubby can't be upset that there isn't a home cooked meal on the table.
Do you have a quick recipe? email me firstname.lastname@example.com

Find new & used cars
Car specifications
So what is it?
It's the Soul EV, which is, as your logic faculties may have deduced, an all-electric version of Kia's mini-MPV.
I'm literally frothing with excitement.
Thought you might be. This shall be Kia's first globally-sold, mass-produced electric motor, following the little Kia Ray (a Nissan Cube-like box-on-wheels) that's been quietly drumming up support for electric cars in South Korea for little over three years now.
It sits on the standard front-wheel-drive Soul platform - engineered so a battery pack could be installed with minimal intrusion into the cabin - itself the same platform as the new Cee'd. So a fair base to start from.
That battery is mounted in the floor of the Soul, to lower the centre of gravity. It offers 0-62mph time of under 12 seconds, a giddying top speed of 90mph, and a motor output of just under 110bhp and 201lb ft of torque.
And how quickly will it recharge?
Charge it using a 240V socket and you've got full power in five hours; switch to the 100kW fast charger and you're looking at 25 minutes.
This EV is, however, some 300kg heavier than the regular Soul. Kia is still trying to figure out the battery/motor technology, and hasn't yet decided on a supplier at the moment.
How far will it go?
Kia estimates a range of over 124 miles when it goes on sale next year. Which is good.
So what's it like to drive?
Quiet. The Soul feels composed, refined, and on our test route, seemed a soft, comforting way to stroll through the city. On dual carriageways we got an inkling of some body roll and a soft suspension setup; floor the throttle from zero and that instant torque rocked the Soul back on its springs and shocks.
But that torque. It's the best thing about electric motors. Lots of torque from thin air means decent 0-30mph pace, good overtaking ability and even a nice little 'bullet-train' whine from the motor.
How far did you get?
On the first leg of our test drive, we covered just over 16 miles, with the range dropping from 103 to 78 miles. The second leg recorded a drop in range from 77 to 67 miles, though we covered 13 miles. All achieved with a combination of thoughtful start-stop driving and, ahem, a heavier right foot.
Should I buy one?
We'd wait and see. Final tech spec still needs to be confirmed, and on the strength of this first prototype test drive, the Soul EV isn't very involving. But it may all come down to money: if Kia can figure a way to offer a city EV for a price close to its petrol Soul, it could be onto a winner…
The competition
How about an alternative?

LEWISBURG, Pa. -- On Friday, Leah Smith of Oakland Catholic was competing against the best swimmers in Pennsylvania.
On Saturday, she was swimming against the rest of the nation -- and nearly came out on top.
Smith had no doubts she would again set the PIAA Class AAA girls 500 freestyle record she already owned, and she did so with ease. She posted a 4:37.98 in the preliminaries to brush aside her previous mark of 4:39.96 at the 2011 PIAA meet.
Then she nearly topped the U.S. mark in the final.
With a strong, easy stroke throughout, Smith touched the wall at Bucknell University's Kinney Natatorium in 4:36.41.
According to the National Federation of State High School Associations record book, Smith's championship time is unofficially the second-best time of any U.S. female swimmer in a NFHS scholastic meet.
The NFHS national record is 4:34.78 by Dagny Knutson of Minot, N.D., in 2008. Once Smith's time is certified -- the PIAA must go through the process of measuring the course and checking the automatic time to confirm -- she will take her place at No. 2 nationally ahead of such notables as Olympian Janet Evans.
The best time by a teenage female swimmer in the 500 free came a month ago when Katie Ledecky from Stone Ridge School in Bethesda, Md., an independent school, swam a 4:31.38.
"It's my personal record, so I'm happy about that," said Smith
But Smith, who clearly wanted to break Knutson's time, acknowledged disappointment that she fell less than two seconds short.
"It's not devastating, but that was my goal," Smith said.
Smith was named the Class AAA female swimmer of the meet, an honor that brightened her mood somewhat.
"That's never happened before, so I'm happy about that," she said.
Smith's time stole a little thunder from two WPIAL male athletes, Dominic Giordano of Pine-Richland and Zach Buerger of North Allegheny.
Giordano rolled up a score of 584.45 to win the Class AAA boys diving title, but his shot at the PIAA record of 599.50 (Connor Kuremsky of North Allegheny, 2011) fell short.
Giordano, fifth a year ago, will attend Florida State.
Buerger earned his second gold medal of the meet when he won the 500 freestyle.
Buerger improved his preliminary time by nearly six seconds with his 4:28.12 in the final to add the 500 gold to the 200 individual medley title he won Friday night.
North Allegheny finished fourth in the Class AAA boys team standings and Upper St. Clair finished fifth.
Oakland Catholic was fifth in the Class AAA girls team standings, although Latrobe, without a champion, finished fourth.

The grass is no greener. But, finally, it's legal – at least somewhere in America.
Washington state and Colorado voted to legalize and regulate its recreational use last month. But before that, marijuana, renowned since ancient times for its strong fibers, medical use and mind-altering properties, was a staple crop of the colonies, an "assassin of youth," a counterculture emblem and a widely accepted – if often abused – medicine.
Here is a look back at the cultural and legal status of the "evil weed" in American history.
George Washington and Thomas Jefferson both grew hemp and puzzled over the best ways to process it for clothing and rope.
Indeed, cannabis has been grown in America since soon after the British arrived. In 1619 the Crown ordered the colonists at Jamestown to grow hemp to satisfy England's incessant demand for maritime ropes, Wayne State University Professor Ernest Abel wrote in "Marihuana: The First Twelve Thousand Years."
Hemp became more important to the colonies as New England's own shipping industry developed, and homespun hemp helped clothe American soldiers during the Revolutionary War. Some colonies offered farmers "bounties" for growing it.
In the 1890s, the first English-language newspaper opened in Mexico and, through the wire service, tales of marijuana-induced violence that were common in Mexican papers began to appear north of the border – helping to shape public perceptions that would later form the basis of pot prohibition. By 1910, articles in the New York Sun, Boston Daily Globe and other papers decried the "evils of ganjah smoking" and suggested that some use it "to key themselves up to the point of killing."
Pot-smoking spread through the 1920s and became especially popular with jazz musicians. Louis Armstrong, a lifelong fan and defender of the drug he called "gage," was arrested in California in 1930 and given a six-month suspended sentence for pot possession.
After the repeal of alcohol prohibition in 1933, Harry Anslinger, who headed the federal Bureau of Narcotics, turned his attention to pot. He told of sensational crimes reportedly committed by marijuana addicts.
"No one knows, when he places a marijuana cigarette to his lips, whether he will become a philosopher, a joyous reveler in a musical heaven, a mad insensate, a calm philosopher, or a murderer," he wrote in a 1937 magazine article called "Marijuana: Assassin of Youth."
The hysteria was captured in the propaganda films of the time – most famously, "Reefer Madness," which depicted young adults descending into violence and insanity after smoking marijuana.
Congress banned marijuana with the Marihuana Tax Act of 1937. Anslinger continued his campaign into the '40s and '50s, sometimes trying – without luck – to get jazz musicians to inform on each other.
The Department of Agriculture promoted a different message. After Japanese troops cut off access to Asian fiber supplies during World War II, it released "Hemp For Victory," a propaganda film urging farmers to grow hemp and extolling its use in parachutes and rope for the war effort.
As the conformity of the postwar era took hold, getting high on marijuana and other drugs emerged as a symbol of the counterculture, with Jack Kerouac and the rest of the Beat Generation singing pot's praises. It also continued to be popular with actors and musicians.
Then came Vietnam. The widespread, open use of marijuana by hippies and war protesters from San Francisco to Woodstock finally exposed the falsity of the claims so many had made about marijuana leading to violence, says University of Virginia Professor Richard Bonnie, a scholar of pot's cultural status.
In 1972, Bonnie was the associate director of a commission appointed by President Richard Nixon to study marijuana. The commission said marijuana should be decriminalized and regulated. Nixon rejected that, but a dozen states in the '70s went on to eliminate jail terms for pot arrests.
The push to liberalize drug laws hit a wall by the late 1970s. Parents groups became concerned about data showing that more children were using drugs, and at a younger age. The religious right emerged as a political force.
When Nancy Reagan became first lady, she quickly promoted the anti-drug cause. During a visit with schoolchildren in Oakland, as Reagan later recalled, "A little girl raised her hand and said, 'Mrs. Reagan, what do you do if somebody offers you drugs?' And I said, 'Well, you just say no.' And there it was born."
By 1988, more than 12,000 "Just Say No" clubs and school programs had been formed, according to the Reagan Library. Between 1978 and 1987, the percentage of high school seniors reporting daily use of marijuana fell from 10 percent to 3 percent.
Marijuana has been used as medicine since ancient times, as described in Chinese, Indian and Roman texts, but U.S. drug laws in the latter part of the 20th century made no room for it.
In the 1970s, many states passed symbolic laws calling for studies of marijuana's efficacy as medicine, although virtually no studies ever took place because of the federal prohibition.
Nevertheless, doctors noted its ability to ease nausea and stimulate appetites of cancer and AIDS patients. And in 1996, California became the first state to allow the medical use of marijuana.
Since then, 17 other states and the District of Columbia have followed.
In recent years, medical marijuana dispensaries – readily identifiable by the green crosses on their storefronts – have proliferated in many states, including Washington, Colorado and California. That's prompted a backlash from some who suggest they are fronts for illicit drug dealing and that most of the people they serve aren't really sick.
The Justice Department has shut down some it deems the worst offenders.

UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva is currently 37 years old. Silva, however, feels like a young fighter just entering his prime, as he told the Brazilian newspaper Estadao recently.
"I guess you can see more like six years of fighting (left)," Silva said. "I love what I do. The team that works with me does a fantastic job."
Silva is a perfect 15-0 inside the Octagon, and is currently among the top pound-for-pound fighters in the world. He does not have a scheduled opponent to date, but rumors of a super-fight with Georges St-Pierre have picked up steam.
"I've never had a serious injury that took myself away from competition," Silva said. "So, I think I have this a little while longer."

Despite a cancer diagnosis, Brooke said at the time she expects a happy ending.
Now that "DWTS" is done, the co-host of the show has scheduled her surgery, which she says will leave a scar across the front of her neck.
Brooke wrote to her fans on Facebook saying she is "planning on a speedy recovery." Though she admits on her Modern Mom blog that she expects challenges ahead, Brooke remains resolute. "What a crazy time," she writes. "But I am surrounded with love and support and that really makes a world of difference."
As for post-surgery plans, Brooke says she has plenty of movies she wants to watch, and a lot of sleep to catch up on.

Twitter Recipe #1: Wine suggestions for Anthony's white bean sunchoke purée crostini (and another recipe)
The other day, I was getting ready to cook some white beans, and wanted to take the dish in a different direction than what I usually do. So knowing that I have many friends on Twitter who are well-versed in the culinary arts of the Mediterranean, I tweeted for suggestions while the beans simmered and [...]

She seems to feel that I dont care about her special day.
I've got to admit, I'm not a big believer in "milestone birthdays". My life didn't change dramatically between my last day at 49 and my first at 50. So, I'd really, *really* advise against telling your sister, "I'll make it to your next wedding, what's the big deal about this one? MY day is a once in a lifetime thing, though."On the other hand, you don't have to go if you don't want to do so. It sounds like you're not all that close to your sister, and if those are the dynamics, you're under no etiquette obligation to attend. However, it is saying to your sister that she's not a top priority in your life. If that's the truth, then I wouldn't worry about it.
Quote from: Sharnita on October 13, 2011, 04:53:50 AMHonestly, even for a milestone birthday I would just shift my celebaration to the weekend before or after. However, I have adifferent relationship with my siblngs. I'm the same. My sisters are my best friends. No way I would miss out on a sister's wedding just because it's my birthday - nor would I feel it 'off' if they planned their wedding for my birthday weekend. This is said as somebody who usually guards her birthday very jealously, so it's not that I find my birthday unimportant, it's just no skin off my nose to celebrate it some other day.However, that's a relationship issue and not an etiquette issue. Etiquette-wise, you're completely in the clear.

Yes, you only turn 50 once in your life but your sister will only marry this man once.
She seems to feel that I dont care about her special day. I told her that although I DO care, I have to be honest in saying that unfortunately, turning 50 will only happen once in my lifetime. As we both know, unfortunately weddings are no longer such isolated events. Im glad shes found love again, but we have a bit of a conflict regarding how to handle our respective special days this time.
But it sounds like you have no interest in this sister (or your family in general) and wouldn't attend even if it wasn't your birthday? There's nothing wrong with that, if you're not close to her. Every family is different. In that case, let her know you won't be making it out and be firm about it. Don't bring up the birthday -- that just sounds childish and gives her a reason to fight you on it.
You sound completely ridiculous whining about the whole birthday thing at your mature age and about the expectations that you occasionally visit for family events where the rest of the family lives. I'm sure you were invited to the wedding because you're her sister so you're automatically on the guest list. Stay home. I can assure you she won't miss you!

Mercedes boss Ross Brawn confirmed on Friday that he made the decision for his team to be part of a Pirelli tyre test in Spain that is being investigated as a possible breach of the sport's rules.
But Brawn reaffirmed his belief that the team had done nothing wrong and is confident Mercedes will be cleared of any wrongdoing when it goes before the FIA tribunal.
"I think there's been some rumours before and nothing's happened," Brawn told a news conference after the first day of practice for Sunday's Canadian Grand Prix.
"I think we should say let's wait and see what the tribunal find and then we can take it from there. It was my decision to do the test so that's a fact."
Brawn also shot back at suggestions the tests were conducted secretly.
"It was a private test," he said.
"It wasn't a secret test. Anyone who believes you can go to Barcelona and do three days of testing, or 1,000km of testing, and not have anyone become aware, is very naive. Sporting integrity is very, very important to us, very important to Mercedes. And, I think when the facts become apparent, people can make a better judgment of the situation."
While Brawn defended himself, Pirelli boss Paul Hembery, who was also scheduled to appear at the conference, pulled out on legal advice.
"If ever you're going to a tribunal any lawyer will tell you at that point you have a formal process to follow, which we're happy to follow," said Hembery.

In the 11/11 quickies someone said that the genesis version of Shadowrun is the same as the snes version. This is wrong, they are vastly different and the genesis version was most excellent (good enough for me to download genecyst to play it. So if that one person from a couple days ago is looking for a good shadowrun game he should play the genesis version and remember abacab :). | It's really, really not nice to trick the Q&A host. Said host needs to be a bit less trusting, I suppose. |
Hi kitty just wanted to say... Daft Punk rules!!!!! You can check out all their videos for discovery at http://daftpunknet.multimania.com/ enjoy! -James | Yes, they do. Harder, better, faster, stronger rulez. |
Hey, this isn't really a question for the column, but just one that I was wanting to know and thought you were the best source for. Do you the name of the song that's played at the end of Juipter Jazz pt 2 (episode 13, pretty sure) on Cowboy Bebop? If you could help me out, that'd be great. Thanks. ~BoboFatt | It's called "Space Lion." and I believe it's on the first soundtrack. An all saxophone version (ie: what Gren played at the Blue Crow) is called "Goodnight, Julia." and it's available on the bonus disc included with the movie soundtrack. |
Rhythm and Police? I never even heard of that song. How could it have
outranked Butterfly Upswing and Dam Dariram?
| It won out because that was the song that was on at the time. Admittedly, those two songs ARE much better. |
The Last Laugh: Short column because it's late and I'm tired. Quick point of interest,Justice League premiers tomorrow at 7/6 central on Cartoon Network. Looks sw33t. Also, my bio is up. I still need a good pic for the upper left-hand corner. You artist types, get crackin'. |
chesh "Reboot wasn't as funny this week." @rpgamer.com
Then again, neither was I. Rulez? When the hell did I turn into a 12 year old AOLer?
