So I made reference yesterday to winning the mother of all giveaways. Take a look and tell me if you think I was exaggerating!:
Mary, who blogs over at The Momoo, hosted a giveaway and the grand prize was this beautiful quilt. These spiderweb quilts are popping up all over the web and, as much as I love them, I didn't have any plans of undertaking a project of this scope on my own ... especially still being a paper-piecing virgin and all. So I'm choosing to believe that it was fate that my number would be pulled to win this masterpiece!
This quilt was actually made by Mary's uber-talented daughter, Jenny blempgorf. Every time I look at the pictures I get even more excited; first, because I keep seeing more and more of my favorite fabrics that I've never had the pleasure of working with (I'm lookin' at you, Mr. Heather Ross gnome, and those rare Flea Market Fancy prints), and also because the choice of the soft tan rather than stark white is so my style.
And check out the backing fabric. My daughters will absolutely LOVE the horses! This quilt will live such a happy life in our home. Mary and Jenny, thank you both so much -- I promise that this quilt will be loved and cherished.
Please take a moment to check out Mary's blog and say "hello" for me!

oh, so happy for you, john!! and jealous. but happy. :)
i am sure that your kiddos will be quite happy to do some eye spy-ing of their own. i'll bet that they (like my own kiddos) love to spot fabric that you have sewn with. i've never tried this paper-piecing thing either, but dang, i want one of those quilts!

does compiz have a future?? now that kde and gnome are integrating desktop effects into their window managers
Phoronix: Compiz 0.9 Finally Approaches, Beta Coming
It has been a while since last talking about the Compiz compositing manager with their last v0.8 release coming some six months ago, but in fact things have remained busy and now they are finally approaching the 0.9 release in the coming months. As we reported last year and at the start of this year, Compiz Fusion is being dropped, Compiz++ came about as a rewrite of Compiz in C++ and also separated out the compositing and window management responsibilities, and then it was agreed upon that Compiz++ and NOMAD would merge into Compiz...
does compiz have a future?? now that kde and gnome are integrating desktop effects into their window managers
I definitely think Compiz has a future. I have used both Compiz and Kwin+compositing at some point in the recent past, and Kwin causes all my 3D apps to run at 30fps. Compiz doesn't. Overall, Compiz is more mature.
Stopped using it after a while and honestly I don't miss it. Productivity wise, I can achieve the same with Kwin effects and to a lesser extent even Metacity's manager. Much less of a hassle too. May try it again in the future, but I doubt I will ever consider it again as a staple feature on any of my desktops.
Compiz comes installed and enabled by default in most distros, with a few of the many available features enabled. Unless Metacity and Kwin catch up, it seems Compiz is the defacto Linux window manager for many desktops now. Support for compositing across many Linux programs has improved it seems, too, meaning there are less reasons for disabling it.
Distros based on KDE4 don't use Compiz by default. KDE's window manager offers much better integration and is light-weight. I think Compiz will eventually become the least used window manager and interest in it will die out.
Desktop bling ftw. Compiz' myriad of options is great for us "power-users" who like to tweak everything too
KWin is progressing fast and it's getting better at a good pace. On the contrary Compiz will always lack integration... I already can see a drop in the use of Compiz. It's still good, but it will lose ground, and will probably die someday as the "once upon a time revolutionary technology XGL".

WASHINGTON - The House of Representatives passed a bill Friday that would grant more visas to highly skilled foreigners while eliminating a program that awards visas through a lottery system.
The bill, sponsored by Rep. Lamar Smith, R-Texas, would grant up to 55,000 visas a year to foreigners who graduate with advanced degrees from American universities in the "STEM" fields - science, technology, engineering and mathematics. The bill would do so by eliminating the visa diversity program, which grants a similar number of visas each year in a worldwide lottery.
The bill, passed in the House by a 245-139 vote, has little chance in the Senate, where Sens. Charles Schumer, D-N.Y., and Chris Coons, D-Del., have introduced a bill that would add the STEM visas without eliminating the diversity visa program. The Obama administration issued a statement Wednesday saying it did not support the bill, partly because it would eliminate the diversity visa program.
The bill serves as the first action on immigration in Congress after an election that saw Republicans struggle to garner Hispanic votes. President Obama beat out Republican challenger Mitt Romney 71% to 27% in the Hispanic vote, a gap that Republicans say must be closed for the GOP to gain ground in future elections.
There was no debate Friday on the House floor over the benefits of giving more green cards to foreigners who graduate in STEM fields. What upset many Democrats is the fact that Smith's bill would eliminate the diversity visa program.
That program awards visas through a lottery system in an attempt to bring in people from countries who are underrepresented in the U.S. population. The majority of those visas end up going to African nations, and others such as Ukraine, Fiji and Bangladesh.
"There's no question that a STEM green card program is the right thing to do for our country," said Rep. Zoe Lofgren, D-Calif., whose district includes many of the Silicon Valley businesses clamoring for more visas. "(But) I can't support a bill that pits immigrant communities against each other. There's no reason that giving a green card to one person should mean taking one away from someone else."
Supporters of the bill countered that the diversity visa program is outdated.
Rep. Steve King, R-Iowa, said the U.S. legal immigration system is not enough of a meritocracy. He said up to 11% of visas granted by the United States are based on merit - the rest are given based on family ties and other categories.
House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, R-Va., said a targeted visa program aimed at the most talented foreigners, as opposed to a random lottery, is needed to help grow the U.S. economy. He pointed to figures that show immigrants are awarded the majority of U.S. patents in the STEM fields and that a quarter of all businesses in the STEM fields were created by immigrants.
"Our commitment to foreign STEM graduates is a commitment to American job creation," Cantor said.
Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., said voters and high-tech companies in his district have been most concerned with more jobs, not more immigration.
"We want to put to the head of the line the people ... that create net jobs. They'll create jobs for people of all colors, of all races," Issa said. "I'm voting for (this bill) because I know as a former businessman ... that jobs and the economy are what people want us to work on. This is a good down payment."

Your primary focus as a musician may be on the sound, but if you want to put on a great show, you'll need some great visuals to go along with it. Color changers and wash lights help you shine when you're onstage. With a wide variety of effects options, this stage lighting can add the visual impact to put on a show the whole audience will remember. Color changers and wash lights are great for DJs and bands alike. Most of these units give you the option of setting them up on the stage or mounting them on a truss, so you can direct their effects exactly where you want them. Take your pick between traditional bulb-powered units for a more classic feel and warmer look, or modern LED stage lighting that's lightweight and runs cool so you won't be sweating it out while you perform. These accent lights come in a few different forms. Bar-shaped wall wash lights will give you a wide curtain of light that's perfect for shining on your backdrops, lining the front of the stage or under-lighting a drum set. Spot-type wash lights work well as overhead lighting, so they're a great addition to an elevated truss. To really dial up the energy of a show, add an effects light such as a flame, fan beam, moonflower, asteroid or projector—these types of lighting are a must-have for DJs. Most LED wash lights and bars are color changers, loaded with RGB LEDs that either come with dozens of color presets, or allow you to program in your own hues by changing the levels of red, green and blue. If you're looking for a wash light that can give you softer colors or pastel effects, take a look at some "RGBA" models. These units have additional amber LEDs that give you control over the warmth of the light as well as the color. When you're choosing your color changers and wash lights, consider the features to make sure you're getting lighting that can do everything you want it to. Some lights come with built-in macros and strobe effects, some can be daisy-chained together to share the same effect across the stage and some can take advantage of sound-activated effects to respond in real time to your music. Thanks to the low power draw of LEDs, you can even get lighting that's battery-powered and wirelessly controlled, making setup and teardown virtually instant. To make your gigs look as great as they sound, color changers and wash lights are an important part of your gear. Even though some venues may provide lighting for you, bringing your own along gives you the advantage of having consistent effects for every show.

I was just half-listening to a program on public radio. Because of that my attention wasn't fully engaged until I realized that something was being said which called my notice.
A former drug dealer in recovery with the AA program was talking about his life and his recovery. A man called in who "used to do a lot of pot but now used it wisely." He made a comment that he had once tried AA but couldn't get his mind around the HP concept.
Also mentioned that some people, such as himself, had a good reason for using because he had so much more pain and trouble with living problems than some other people do.
Gee, that sounded familiar. I listened to hear how the former dealer would answer. And he did such a beautiful job of explaining his perception.
I've heard it put so many ways before, but never as well as he did. He talked about whenever he was altering his mood he had already accepted that there was a power greater than himself - drugs. They could do for him something he wasn't able to do without their help.
Then he went on, a bit firmly, that why he used was a question for his child-mind. He said, "'Why" is a question for children; 'How" is a question for adults."
I felt so inspired by his solidity and willingness to let go of understanding in order to truly understand that I had to drop in and post it for others.
AA hugs, All.

Star Wars Saga Blu-ray Preview
The new box set includes three discs of bonus material.
Star wars fans of all levels—from causal fans to total Jedi nerds—should be happy that the complete series of Star Wars films (all six of them) are finally coming to Blu-ray disc. There's probably no other collection in the history of packaged media to generate this much buzz.
The movies will be available starting Sept 16 in three options: the original first three movies; the prequel trilogy and the complete set of six—plus a few extra discs of bonus flotsam.
The best home theater system is the one you plan with help from the experts. Get premium advice for FREE in our expert guide, Planning the Best Home Theater System: Choosing the Best Home Theater Projector, Best Home Theater Speakers, Best Home Theater Receiver, Best Home Theater Screens & More.
Home Theater Forum was invited to the hallowed grounds of Lucasfilm and Industrial Light and Magic, where they were escorted by Storm Troopers to get a quick hands-on with the new collection, learn about the restoration process, view the ample bonus material and basically geek out for a few hours. Hey, how do I get on guest lists like that.
Check out two Star Wars theme home theaters here and here.
Anyway, among the galaxy-shatter things they learned are that:
• During the restoration the light saber colors were made brighter, bringing back the "white-hot core" from the original films.
• Audio is lossless DTS HD MA 6.1
• One whole disc in the complete set is full of documentaries including Star Wars spoofs that originally appeared on Saturday Night Live, Family Guy, Mel Brook's Spaceballs, and more
• The 1978 Star Wars holiday special, directed by Steve Binder, might be there. Hint—look for Easter Eggs.
Learn a lot more about the Star Wars Blu-ray collection, including screen shots comparing the DVD to the Blu-ray and an interview with Lucasfilm's Kayleen Walters here at Home Theater Forum.

Sir Elton Hercules John, CBE (born March 25, 1947) is an English pop/rock singer, composer and pianist. In a career spanning over four decades, Elton John has sold over 250 million records and has had over 50 Top 40 hits, making him one of the most successful musicians of all time.
John was one of the dominant commercial forces in the rock world during the 1970s, with a string of seven consecutive #1 records on the U.S. album charts, 23 Top 40 singles, 16 Top 10 ones, and six #1 hits. His success had a profound impact on popular music, and contributed to the continued popularity of the piano in rock and roll. Key musical elements in John's success included his melodic gifts matched with the contributions of his lyricist partner Bernie Taupin, his rich tenor and gospel-chorded piano, aggressive string arrangements, and his flamboyant fashion sense and on-stage showmanship.
In the early 1990s, John publicly revealed the personal costs of his rock-star extravagance: his ongoing struggle with drug abuse, depression and bulimia. He continues to be a major public figure, and has been heavily involved in the fight against AIDS since the late 1980s. He was inducte...

Major Section: ARRAYS
Example Form: (compress2 'delta1 a)whereGeneral Form: (compress2 name alist)
is a symbol and alist
is a 2-dimensional array named
. See arrays for details. Logically speaking, this
function removes irrelevant pairs from alist
, possibly shortening
it. The function returns a new array, alist'
, of the same name and
dimension as alist
, that, under aref2
, is everywhere equal to alist
That is, (aref2 name alist' i j)
is (aref2 name alist i j)
, for all
legal indices i
and j
. Alist'
may be shorter than alist
and the
non-irrelevant pairs may occur in a different order in alist'
in alist
Practically speaking, this function plays an important role in the
efficient implementation of aref2
. In addition to creating the new
array, alist'
, compress2
makes that array the ``semantic value'' of
and allocates a raw lisp array to name
. For all legal indices,
and j
, that raw lisp array contains (aref2 name alist' i j)
slot i
. Thus, subsequent aref2
operations can be executed in
virtually constant time provided they are given name
and the alist'
returned by the most recently executed compress2
or aset2
on name
See arrays.

Any form of news or commentary coming from any media organization owned by Rupert Murdock. The sensationalistic and invasive mindset of the Murdock media empire invites slanted, propagandist material released as solid news. What goes into the media empire as valid fact comes out the other end as Rupe Poop.
On Fox News last night, more Rupe Poop from O'Reily-he said President Obama was gay. He said Obama's visit to an Aids clinic proved that.

Choose from the naturally aspirated Evora, the supercharged Evora S or the new Evora 'Sports Racer' (Europe only).
Potent performance, graceful design and 2+2 practicality are perfectly combined in the Evora. The 3.5 litre DOHC V6 VVT-i engine is complemented by the state-of-the-art aluminium bonded chassis to provide a sublime blend of power and balanced handling.
The visual difference between the Evora and the Evora S includes a more aggressive-looking rear diffuser, black wing mirror caps and rear light surrounds. But the difference is more than skin deep. A supercharger increases power from the V6 engine...
The Evora Sports Racer is a visually enhanced and optimised version of the mid-engined 3.5 litre V6, available in either the naturally aspirated or supercharged variant. It comes with a unique exterior colour scheme. (Europe only)
Like all Lotus' before it, the Evora is a sports car that benefits from a unique approach to driving dynamics. It's a car for serious drivers who enjoy the combination of performance and the open road. The design and engineering technology ensure that the driver is fully immersed in a sensory experience, where exactly the right feedback is transmitted from the road to make even the most ordinary drive feel special.

Hurricane Sandy Response
Hurricane Sandy Response Efforts
Response timeline | February 21, 2013:
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, at the request of New York City, operated two air curtain incinerators at Floyd Bennett Field in Brooklyn, NY to burn vegetative debris, largely from downed trees, gathered in the cleanup from Hurricane Sandy. These operations began on December 28, 2012 and ceased on February 14, 2013. An air curtain incinerator is a self-contained system that reduces wood debris to ash. It is equipped with air blowers that circulate the air to improve combustion and minimize emissions of fine particles.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency deployed eight fine particle monitors operating around the perimeter of Floyd Bennett Field to monitor for potential impacts of the air curtain devices. An EPA On-Scene Coordinator was on-site while the burning took place to monitor what was being burned and air quality at the field.
Levels of fine particles were measured by the monitors and averaged over a 24-hour period. Results from the monitors were compared to an established 24-hour health-based standard. That standard is 35 micrograms per cubic meter of air (�g/m3). If the 24-hour standard was exceeded, the EPA notified the Army Corps and New York City.
Air Sampling Results
On November 19, 2012, EPA collected air samples from eight locations around Floyd Bennett Field to measure baseline concentrations of 119 different chemicals including, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), metals, and dioxin. Exposure to these pollutants can have serious health effects, and in some cases, increase the risk of cancer. During the November 28 pilot burn, and EPA collected air samples from the eight sampling locations for analysis of the same parameters and chemicals. These samples were analyzed in a laboratory.
The baseline and pilot burn results were compared to screening values designed to protect people's health. There were 23 VOCs and one metal (sodium) detected in the baseline results. All the detected concentrations were below levels of concern. During the actual November 28 pilot burn there were 26 VOCs detected. All of the detected concentrations were below levels of concern and similar to the baseline results. There were no PAHs detected in the baseline results or pilot burn results, and no metals were detected in the pilot burn results. Dioxin was not detected in any of the baseline or pilot burn results.
Get the baseline and pilot burn sampling results summary table at http://www.epa.gov/sandy/data/burnsamplingsummary-11-28-2012.pdf
On January 8, 2013, an additional set of air sampling data was collected for VOCs, PAHs, metals, and dioxin. This latest sampling evaluated ongoing air curtain operations. The results from the latest round of air sampling data had 24 VOCs detected and one metal (barium) detected. All concentrations were below levels of concern and similar to the baseline results of November 19 and the pilot burn of November 28. There were no PAHs detected in latest burn results. Dioxin was not detected in the latest burn results.
Get the latest burn sampling results summary table at: http://epa.gov/region02/sandy/data/Pre_and_January_7-8_2013_Summary.pdf
Air Monitoring for Air Curtain Incinerator
From December 28 until the end of burning operations on February 14, results from operating monitors showed that the 24 hour standard has not been violated, except for January 9, 28, 29 and February 5. On those four days, one or more of the EPA's air monitors measured levels that exceeded the 24 hour standard. On all of the four days, overall weather conditions in NYC and most of the northeast and New York City resulted in an inversion in the air, which reduced the atmosphere's ability to mix and dilute pollution. For a more detailed discussion of each day, please see:
Update for January 10 | Update for January 29 | Update for January 30 | Update for February 6
In order to reduce the impacts of the air curtain devices at Floyd Bennett Field on air quality, steps were taken to limit the operation of the devices to reduce particle emissions.
The EPA has an established Air Quality Index reports daily air quality across the country. The index indicates how clean or polluted the air in a particular area is and what associated health effec ts might be a concern. For more information about the Air Quality Index, visit http://airnow.gov/.

ABB e-motion land speed record attempt abandoned
Article Summary
May 15, 2005 ABB e=motion has abandoned its attempt to break the world electric land speed record following an aborted attempt in Nevada last week. The e=motion team has not yet announced whether it will attempt to break the record in the future. After a successful trial run on an isolated highway outside of Wendover, Nevada on May 4, the car - which is powered by an ABB variable speed drive and two 50 hp ABB motors - experienced a series of false starts. Technical problems arose in the car's control circuits, preventing it from starting. A detailed investigation to find the exact nature of the fault will be done when ABB e=motion returns to the U.K.

New-look Cubs take on playoff-hungry Cardinals
Hendricks leads rookie-laden squad; St. Louis has eyes on division title
At this point, the Cardinals may not even recognize the Cubs.
St. Louis, pounding through another punishing stretch run in the National League Central, will play against Chicago on Friday for the first time in a month. But it's been an eventful month.
The Cubs have promoted two of their top prospects in August, and they had five rookies in the starting lineup on Sunday. Javier Baez has shown some mixed results in his first few weeks of big league action, but Chicago added high-impact outfielder Jorge Soler to the mix on Wednesday.
Baez, MLB.com's No. 5 overall prospect, is batting .189 with seven home runs in his first 23 games. Soler, meanwhile, has batted .340 with 15 home runs across three Minor League stops. Soler homered in his first Major League at-bat on Wednesday against the Reds, and he'll see St. Louis before he plays at Wrigley Field.
And it will be another rookie -- right-hander Kyle Hendricks -- on the mound in Friday's series opener against the Cardinals. Hendricks has gone 5-1 with a 1.78 ERA in his first eight big league outings, and he'll be matched against right-hander Shelby Miller, who has won just once since June 7.
The Cardinals have won four straight series at home, and they remained 1 1/2 games back of division-leading Milwaukee after a loss to Pittsburgh on Wednesday. St. Louis and San Francisco currently control the NL's two Wild Card slots, but the Pirates and Braves are hot on their trail.
Hendricks came out after just two innings last week due to a rain delay, but prior to that outing, he had completed at least six innings in each of his first seven starts. Hendricks, acquired from Texas in a 2012 trade for Ryan Dempster, has allowed more than two earned runs just once this season.
Miller, meanwhile, logged a 3.15 ERA in April and has been over 4.00 in every other month. The 23-year-old has allowed 18 home runs this season, and he's 1-1 with a 4.17 ERA in his last seven starts. Miller won 15 games for St. Louis last season, and he has a career 3.52 ERA in 63 games.
Cubs: Rizzo hopes to be back in lineup Friday
First baseman Anthony Rizzo missed the final two games of the Cubs' series with the Reds due to lower back tightness, but hopes to be back in the lineup for Friday's series opener against the Cardinals.
"There wasn't one thing I did that hurt it," Rizzo said on Thursday. "It just grabbed me. I'm not too worried about it. It's just frustrating. … Obviously, going through a swinging motion grabs at it, too. Hopefully, today it gets a lot better. I don't think it's going to get any worse. I'll just gut through it, worst case."
Rizzo earned All-Star accolades this season, and he's quietly become one of the most productive power hitters in the league. He has 30 home runs this season and 53 since the start of the 2013 campaign, which is fourth-most among all NL players over that span.
Miami's Giancarlo Stanton (57), Arizona's Paul Goldschmidt (55) and Pittsburgh's Pedro Alvarez (54) are the only NL players with more homers over that time. Rizzo, 25, is just the seventh left-handed hitter in Cubs history to have 30 homers, and he's the first since Fred McGriff in 2002.
Cardinals: Veteran leadership is back
St. Louis got catcher Yadier Molina back on the roster Friday, ending a seven-week absence due to a torn ligament in his right thumb. Molina is batting .287 with seven home runs and 30 RBIs in 83 games, but he hasn't played for the Cardinals since July 9.
Molina, an All-Star in each of the last six seasons, began a rehab assignment with Double-A Springfield Wednesday. The Cardinals activated him in time for Friday's opener against the Cubs and optioned catcher Tony Cruz to Double-A Springfield.
"I think he can have a huge impact, and I think anybody in baseball would want to have him on their club in any capacity," manager Mike Matheny said. "We want to have him right, too, so we have to see how he looks when he gets back. The leadership he brings, everything, the package, is important."
In 133 games against the Cubs, Molina has a .307 average, 13 HRs and 76 RBIs (his most against any opponent).
Worth noting
• Eight players have made their Major League debuts for the Cubs this season.
• Chicago closer Hector Rondon has thrown nine straight scoreless innings, and he's notched eight saves in that span.
• The Cardinals gave up a homer on Wednesday, but they are one of just five teams that have given up fewer than 100 homers this season. St. Louis has allowed 96 home runs, third-least in baseball.

Award winning Cheese
Gile Cheese has a long history of providing award-winning cheese. In the early 1920s, a group of area farmers needed a place to process their milk into cheese. So they leased farm land owned by the Carr family and created a co-op. This co-op was the beginning of the Carr Cheese Factory. In 1946, the cheese factory was purchased by Cletus and Sally Gile. While raising 10 children, all of whom helped at one time or another to make cheese, Cletus and Sally grew the business into a successful and award-winning cheese factory. Cletus' son, Tim, bought the business in 1984. A third-generation cheesemaker, Tim, with the help of his wife, Diane, has expanded the product line to include new varieties of cheese, while still offering the tried and true favorites for which Gile Cheese is known.
Gile Cheese has won numerous awards at local and state competitions. Gile cheese has been named Grand Champion at many of the local county fairs. Gile's Baby Swiss and Mild Colby cheeses were both recipients of multiple first place blue ribbons at the Wisconsin State Fair, in which they were also awarded the Governor's Sweepstakes Trophy for receiving the highest score in their respective classes.

Mortadella and Robiola panini One of my favorite uses of my panini press Ingredients: 1/2 cup plain yogurt, preferably goat's-milk 1 small scallion, thinly sliced 1 1/2 tablespoons freshly grated white horseradish (or drained jarred horseradish) 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard Salt Eight 3/4-inch-thick slices of peasant bread Extra-virgin olive oil, for brushing 1/2 pound thinly sliced mortadella 1/2 pound Robiola Bosina cheese, cut into 4 equal slices with the rind, or fresh ricotta Directions: 1.In a small bowl, combine the yogurt with the scallion, horseradish and mustard. Season with salt. 2.Heat a panini press or griddle. Brush both sides of each bread slice with oil. Arrange 4 bread slices on a work surface and spread with the horseradish yogurt. Layer the mortadella and Robiola on top and close the sandwiches with the remaining 4 bread slices. Set them on the preheated press or griddle. If using a griddle, top the panini with a large baking sheet and weigh down with heavy cans. Cook the panini over moderate heat until browned and crisp outside: 3 minutes in a press, 3 minutes per side on a griddle. Cut the panini in half and serve hot. About 100 million callories....

Are 140mm rotors any good

Are 140mm rotors any goodI'm looking at this http://www.konaworld.com/bike.cfm?content=rove Kona Rove as a potential new bike but am just wondering on anyones opinions on the 140mm rotors, they seem and look a little small. A 160mm rotor on the front would probably be better, but no one is getting back to me about whether the forks can take a 160mm rotor.
Last time I checked, 2015 Distance: 1284km Time: 59hr Rides: 47
Re: Are 140mm rotors any goodOn a road bike - For the rear, maybe.
Based on my experience with 180 or 160mm front rotors over 10,000km
Re: Are 140mm rotors any goodI have two bikes with disc brakes, a road bike and a MTB. On the roadie (cable), it is 160 front and 140 rear and on the MTB (hydro) it is 180 front, and 160 rear. I have had no issues or probs with either bike, . The only issue I would be wary of (and will be able to report soon - TRP Parabox currently clearing customs) would be the effect of long descents on 140mm rear rotors with hydraulics and the risk of overheating. I am not anticipating a problem but will be keeping an eye out for any issues given many people's paranoia over the issue (non-issue in my book - anyone who boils their hydraulics on descents isn't doing it right in my opinion - esp in the rear...).

Re: Are 140mm rotors any goodThe primary reason I put a 185 on the front of my CX bike is hand strength operating the levers from the hoods is less than ideal.
Re: Are 140mm rotors any good
Did you have a 160mm on before? Most disc CX bikes tend to come with 160mm rotors, bit hard to test a bikes brakes out properly without a decent ride. Last time I checked, 2015 Distance: 1284km Time: 59hr Rides: 47
Re: Are 140mm rotors any goodNo, I went straight to 185 when I built the bike. I already had issues previously on getting enough power with rim brakes from the hoods, so I didn't want to take the chance. The maths says you'll need 32% more lever force to get the same retardation with a 140 than with a 185. I don't struggle to lift the rear wheel at the moment with 185 from the hoods, but still would not like to squeeze 32% harder to do it. However that would be even better for modulation.
If you buy it, I suggest you try the brakes before you change them, making sure you bed them in properly before forming an opinion. You may like them.
Re: Are 140mm rotors any goodWeightweenieness? I run 160/160 on the commuter (Kona Dewdrop, BB7r) and think they work fine. IMO, smaller rotors will heat up faster under heavy use and fade quicker.
...whatever the road rules, self-preservation is the absolute priority for a cyclist when mixing it with motorised traffic.

Re: Are 140mm rotors any good
I don't know why they specced such small rotors, its never going to be a light bike being all steel. I didn't think brake fade was an issue with cable discs. Last time I checked, 2015 Distance: 1284km Time: 59hr Rides: 47
Re: Are 140mm rotors any good
I've had serious brake fade on our tandem with cabled Avid BB5's - cable operated you havn't got fluid to boil leaving you with nothing but they will still fade when over heated. Some cable operated brakes have plastic parts on them as well which can melt causing failure. Our Website is: http://www.pro-liteoz.com Find us on Facebook by searching for "Pro-Lite Australia"
Re: Are 140mm rotors any goodKona Tech support got back to me, a 160mm rotor is okay, though I'm now thinking this http://www.cube.eu/en/road/off-road/cross-race-disc/ is a better buy, only $300 more, light and comes with good wheels and Shimano's CX70 disc braked 160mm rotors. Only problem is it doesn't come out in Australia till mid December/early January, waiting is the hardest part, may have to buy a tubeless conversion kit for the MTB to ease the urge to buy something bike related.
Last time I checked, 2015 Distance: 1284km Time: 59hr Rides: 47
Re: Are 140mm rotors any goodThere are three types of 'fade':
1. Green fade - caused by pads/disks not being properly bedded in. 2. Fluid fade - brake fluid (or more correctly, water absorbed by the hygroscopic fluid) boils and the pedal/lever goes mushy. 3. Pad fade - the pad exceeds its design temperature and ceases to be effective. Green fade and pad fade can happen to any disc set up. Fluid fade can happen to a disk setup that uses a hygroscopic (water absorbing) hydraulic fluid. It shouldn't be an issue for bicycle brake systems that use mineral oil as brake fluid. My bike blog. Long on rumination, rambling and opinion. Why let facts ruin everything?
Re: Are 140mm rotors any good
The day we had fade on our tandem it would have been 3. Pad fade. You could smell the brakes burning, brakes were still functional but power was reducing and an increasingly rapid rate - I wasn't left with nothing though. I think if we had hydraulic brakes in that situation the overheated pads would have quickly turned into boiled fluid at which time you'd have nothing.

Re: Are 140mm rotors any good
Could this also be influenced by braking technique? Down long descents, I can imagine that riding the brakes is not going to do any good to the pads, but if you use the brakes sparingly then they shouldn't overheat. That is, apply to reduce speed and then release. '11 Lynskey Cooper CX, '00 Hillbrick Steel Racing (Total Rebuild '10), '09 Electra Townie Original 21D
