Left-hander Marc Rzepczynski and the St. Louis Cardinals have agreed to a $1.1 million, one-year contract and avoided salary arbitration. Rzepczynski can earn an additional $50,000 under Friday's agreement: $25,000 each for 70 and 75 appearances. The 27-year-old was 1-3 with a 4.24 ERA in 70 games last year, when he made $501,000. Eligible for arbitration for the first time, he had asked for $1.3 million and been offered $900,000 when figures were exchanged last month. Third baseman David Freese remains the last St. Louis player in arbitration.

Like homing pigeons, humans have a nose for navigation because our brains are wired to convert smells into spatial information, new research shows. Similar investigations have been conducted on birds and rodents, but this is the first time smell-based navigation has been field-tested on humans. The results evoke a GPS-like superpower one could call an "olfactory positioning system."

From the Publisher"...a fascinating account of the history and foundations of mechanics... a significant and timely, and indeed personal, contribution to the literature on mechanics, and one which will sit comfortably alongside other definitive Cambridge publications." The Times Higher Education Supplement
"This new book on classical dynamics based on new discoveries in chaos is needed and justified because it is written from a new perspective....A particular merit of this book is its instructive presentation of examples of simple dynamic systems....This is a thought provoking book...[it] can serve as both a textbook for physics and engineering graduate students and a reference or self-study book for physicists, engineers and mathematicians....Serious readers who are interested in chaotic dynamics are advised to read Chaos, Dynamics and Fractal—An Algorithmic Approach to Deterministic Chaos by the same author (Cambridge University Press, 1993)." Journal of Mechanical Engineering Science
"...well written and easy to follow. It provides an excellent physical insight into the modern theory of nonlinear dynamics. This reviewer enjoyed reading this book very much because it clarifies many issues which are presented in an abstract format in other books." Applied Mechanics Reviews

Some of you fondly remember being a twelve year old anime fan. Back then the foundations of incredible storytelling--compelling plot twists, subtle characterization, and good acting--seemed of little import. What mattered most was whether the battles were awesome and the characters looked cool. For those of you deeply in touch with this younger self and a few hours to kill, run along and... read more

For me the number is nine. I do six out in the Isle of Quel Danas, and then three in Outland (the mining, fishing, and cooking daily). I have a couple of friends who do 25 every day, and I have other friends who only do one or two. I was surprised yeterday in my article about making money through the AH that there were several of you who mentioned that doing all 25 was the norm.
So vote away and lets us know how many daily quests you do every day.

In Rhino 4.0 Essential Training, author Dave Schultze shows how the 3D NURBS-based modeling tools in Rhino 4.0 are used to engineer products from toy robots to full-sized aircraft. This course concentrates on using Rhino 4.0 for industrial design and rapid prototyping, with a review of common 3D terminology using specific examples. Along with a comprehensive exploration of the Rhino interface, the course includes an introduction to building 3D objects with Rhino's three primary entities: the curve, the surface, and the solid. Exercise files are included with the course.
Next up, we'll take a look at the use of Copy and Paste. These two functions will work as you might have expected on any type of entity, which includes points, lines, surfaces and solids, including any number or combination of the above. One aspect to be aware of, the pasted geometry will be located in the exact same position or right on top of the originals. This can appear initially as if nothing happened, so we'll review the best practice to avoid any confusion. Copy and Paste is a huge timesaver, but it's actually more than that. It can be a design strategy for exploration.
I'll give an example here. We're going to select this robot arm. I'm going to copy with the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+C, paste with Ctrl+V. As I mentioned, it's right on top, looks like nothing happened but go ahead and use the nudge technique with the arrows on the keyboard. We go ahead and adjust the count, so I have three spaces over. So, there is the exact copy. I'm going to do it one more time, Copy, Paste, and then just count one, two, and three.
The only reason I'm counting is so I've equal spacing, and I can get them back to the original position. So, with these extra copies, I can do some design explorations. I can try fillets on this one, maybe some chamfers on that edge, or I can make more copies and try other experiments. I'll make some extra copies to show a common problem. So go ahead Copy, Paste. Since we're outside of the command, anytime you hit the right-mouse button, the Spacebar or the Enter key, it's just going to repeat that.
So, I could accidentally hit the Spacebar a few times. Looks like nothing is happening, but when I go back to select this object, I've got like nine or ten different versions right on top of each other. This happens all the time. So, a great way to get rid of these is this kind of hidden command. I'm going to go to the Edit menu > Select Objects. There at the very, very bottom is Duplicate Objects. Now, Duplicate Objects is defined by the exact same geometry in the exact same spot.
Go ahead and select it. It doesn't apply to the earlier copy since they're in a different position. Also, it will include all of the duplicates except for one, which it assumes you want to keep. So, it's already selected, according to the command line, eight duplicates. I'm going to go ahead and hit Delete. Again, looks like nothing happened, but I'm going to try to select it. Since there are no options, that means there is only one object in that position. We got rid of the extras. I'm going to zoom back out here. I'm going to talk about copying and pasting now between Rhino files.
So, this would be in a situation where you're running Rhino from a separate instance. So, I'm going to switch over. Here is a file where I've been doing some arm design studies. So, I've got some fillets on this first one, chamfers on the second, punched a hole in the third. So, this is the winner. I'm going to copy this guy from the current file back to the first file.
So, let's just hit Ctrl+C. Now let's switch back to the original. I can go in here and before I paste, we're probably want to get these out of the way, or I can just delete them, and then hit Ctrl+V. Before I do that, I want you to take a look at the layers. When something is pasted in from another file, it'll come in on the exact same layer as created. So, if that layer doesn't exist in the destination file, it will be created just for this object. I will hit Ctrl+V to paste.
There is the arm from the other file on the layer it was created. So, Copy and Paste is more than just making extra copies to save time. It's a great way to take design detours to explore other options and see how they look for immediate feedback in 3D. Just remember to always keep one extra, unmodified copy before making major changes, in case you want to go back and try other options. One final note: if the geometry was built with curves, which is usually the case, then always keep a copy of those original curves.

December 2nd, 2004 #5
the scale is impressive, especially when you scroll down to see the teeny tiny people going upi the steps, it gives the whole doorway and statue a very immence feeling of giganticness.
I particularly love the statue, its posture and the way its tongue sticks out. The horns and tongue give me the impression that the "aliens" idolize the Human race, so they gave it godly features...
But then i wonder, why did turn the museum into a motel?
Maybe they used to idolize the humans but now they just make a mockery out of it... ok i could be writting a whole story out of this image!
Technical side: the jawbones of those 2 big skulls look too flat, even if they are walls or whatever, they look thin like paper. At first glance the perspective looks way off until you notice a person inside, like walking down stairs... Anyways, thats the only part that really distracts me.
Enfin, je trouve ca genial, t'as vraiment une tonne d'imagination!

I absolutely agree with everything that has been said before. The sense of scale really hit me when I scrolled down. My only problem is the statues' right hand and how it wraps around the pole.

We should not minimize the economic impact of MMA matches, especially on the cities that host these events. At a 2007 MMA match in Columbus, Ohio, some 40 percent of attendees came from outside of the state. That means busy hotels, restaurants and downtowns.
A 2008 study conducted by HR&A Advisors estimated that a single MMA competition in upstate New York would inject $5.2 million into the local economy; an event downstate would lead to more than twice as much economic activity. Not only would MMA create much needed tax revenue, but it would also lead to creation and retention of dozens, if not hundreds, of service jobs.
Based on our experience regulating professional boxing in New York and on conversations with top regulators from more than a dozen other states that regulate MMA, I believe this sport, when properly regulated, will provide New Yorkers with financial and sports entertainment value while maintaining high standards regarding the safety and health of participants.

Need to know: CV cliches Why you can`t find a jobHF interviews
Australian Infrastructure Fund may see a sale of its European airport interests as a panacea for the flagging price of its securities, but it could also have to put core assets Down Under on the block.
That's the view of Goldman Sachs analyst Jonathan Collett who says the potential break up of Australian Infrastructure Fund – or AIX – could value the company at up to 2.36 billion Australian dollars (US$2.32 billion).
AIX has already sold stakes in Port of Geelong, Port of Portland, and Sydney's Metro Light Rail this year as it seeks to narrow the gap between the price of its securities and its net tangible assets.
Australian Infrastructure Fund sold its 50% stake in Port of Portland to Palisade Ports for 66.5 million Australian dollars (US$65 million) Thursday, which has encouraged the market to look ahead to its next move.
J.P.Morgan analyst Carolyn Holmes — who said Thursday's transaction was slightly higher than her estimated valuation of A$64.8 million — has turned her attention to AIX's 40% stake in Hochtief Airport Capital, or HTAC.
"We are still hoping that AIX will ride on the coat-tail of Hochtief, if and when Hochtief sells it airport concessionaires," Ms. Holmes said in a note.

TUESDAY, Jan. 25 (HealthDay News) -- It's hard to help overweight children lose weight, and keeping it off over the long-term is even tougher. But obese children whose parents took classes on the importance of healthy eating and exercise lost weight and kept it off for the next two years, according to a new Australian study.
Researchers said the study shows that targeting parents -- rather than the children -- can help stave off weight gain in children aged 5 to 9.
"We believe it makes developmental sense to involve only parents," said lead study author Anthea Magarey, a senior research associate of nutrition and dietetics, at Flinders University School of Medicine in Adelaide, Australia, where the study took place. "It takes the stigma away from the child and supports a whole family approach."
The study findings were released online in advance of publication in the February issue of Pediatrics.
For young children, parents play a huge role in their eating and exercise habits, Magarey explained. The kids are still spending most of their time at home and eating most meals at home. Parents buy and prepare food, and decide what and how much kids can eat. They are responsible for providing opportunities for children to be active and can set rules for TV and video game use.
The researchers enrolled mostly mothers of 169 moderately obese or overweight children aged 5 to 9 years in a six-month "healthy lifestyle" course, in which parents were taught about portion size and reading nutrition labels, being a good role model for their children and setting limits. (Half of the parents also took a parenting course, although the study authors found little difference between the two groups).
At the end of six months, children's body mass index (a measurement that takes into account weight and height) dropped an average of 10 percent, as did their waist circumfe

A distant relative of the Morgan automobile, the T-Rex exploits Japanese motorbike technology to create a 1200cc superbike engine that can go from 0-97 km/h in a lightning 4.1 seconds, with a top speed of 225 km/h.

Ynet reviewed today the work of Dr. Adam Ferziger, an expert in the study of modern Jewish denominations. The Israeli academic contends that due to assimilation "the absolute majority of American Jewry won't be Jews anymore".
According to Dr. Ferziger, Americans are just not anti-Semitic enough to maintain traditional Jewish identity. Jews have integrated so well "that most Americans don't see being a Jew as a negative thing, but actually consider it an advantage".
Seemingly, without being hated Jews are "getting lost".
Ferziger continues, "Anti-Semitic phenomena are rare, especially in the upper class of the American population, and at the end of the day its open arms were what determined the assimilation trend and helped speed it up". The take-home message is pretty clear. Jews cannot sustain their identity unless confronted by indignation in their surrounding environment. In short, it is anti-Semitism that sustains Jewish existence.
The Christmas tree is, apparently, also a significant threat, according to Ferziger. "Surveys conducted in recent years revealed a growth in the number of Jewish families that put up a Christmas tree in their home and mark Christmas as a sort of American holiday…. Yet they do not feel a contradiction between being Jewish and using holiday symbols which they see as more universal than religious". I guess that universalism in general poses a critical threat to the tribally oriented mind.
But the Jewish genius once again found a solution. Instead of fighting assimilation, the American Jewish establishment actually adopted a "flexible accommodation": "In most Reform and Conservative communities there is an acceptance of the reality of mixed marriages, and there is a desire to find solutions… In as early as 1983, the Reform recognized children as Jewish, and they are wanted in the synagogue. But the innovation is that after a great internal conflict in many places, it was decided that the non-Jewish parent would also be invited to be a full-fledged member of the community" .
The conclusion is obvious. The Jewish community in America is actually expanding and rapidly. "The prevalent perception in America is that synagogue membership is a sort of "Jewish citizenship". You pay taxes, visit the synagogue several times a year, and use its services when there's a bar mitzvah or a wedding".
The contemporary American Jewish leadership has managed to extend the notion of Jewish ethnocentrism – "the synagogue affiliation is a Jewish-American statement that you belong to the Jewish collective". And indeed, "recent studies have proved explicitly that an affiliation with a synagogue holds significant power".
Rather than disappearing, what we see in practice, actually, is a surge of Jewish collectivism and power.
It may be true that traditional Jewish blood-related tradition is in decline in the USA, but Jewish spiritual collectivism is far from being defeated. It is actually expanding rapidly. Once they find a Jewish partner, every goy can join the Chosen as long as their synagogue tax duties are paid.
This commodification and privatization of Judaism is hardly surprising. However, the thought that all these new Jews will have to be hated in order to maintain their newly acquired exceptionalist "religious" identity may entail some gross violence ahead. Beware!
Gilad Atzmon
Atzmon's album Exile was BBC jazz album of the year in 2003. Playing over 100 dates a year,[4] he has been called "surely the hardest-gigging man in British jazz." His albums, of which he has recorded nine to date, often explore the music of the Middle East and political themes. He has described himself as a "devoted political artist." He supports the Palestinian right of return and the one-state solution in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
His criticisms of Zionism, Jewish identity, and Judaism, as well as his controversial views on The Holocaust and Jewish history have led to allegations of antisemitism from both Zionists and anti-Zionists. A profile in The Guardian in 2009 which described Atzmon as "one of London's finest saxophonists" stated: "It is Atzmon's blunt anti-Zionism rather than his music that has given him an international profile, particularly in the Arab world, where his essays are widely read."
His new book The Wandering Who? is now availble at Amazon.com

A mail order bird hatchery in Idaho, has been reported to be the origin for the latest outbreak of Salmonella. The hatchery, only known as Hatchery B, supplied live chicks to feed stores and other points of purchase.
So far, 37 people in 11 states have been infected with the same strain of Salmonella Hadar. Of those sickened, 8 have been hospitalized. According to health officials, 37% of those sickened are under the age of 10.
The CDC has released a statement saying:
"Mail order hatcheries, feed stores and others that sell or display chicks, ducklings, and other live poultry should provide health related information to owners and potential purchasers of the birds prior to the the point of purchase. "

Recent arrivals to play big role on 'New Jackets'

COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Brandon Dubinsky was traded from one of the best teams in the NHL to the worst.
Yet when he looks around at his new Columbus Blue Jackets teammates, he doesn't have a whole lot of regrets about leaving the bright lights of New York along with the Stanley Cup aspirations of his old team, the Rangers, to join a team just hoping to be respectable.
Well, maybe he does have one regret.

Not as accurate as GPS but at least this system works indoors.
The privacy concerns are mounting and the possibilities for GOOG to finally take their place as Big Brother are staggering.

If you do choose the "build it" route, go with a mainstream tool. Enterprises around the world, for example, deploy the open-source Snort IDS. The intrusion detection system's rule updates are available for free, but with a 30-day delay. If you're willing to spend a few hundred bucks a year, however, you can purchase a real-time rules subscription.

Don't Believe Everything You See on TV
This is rather eye-opening. The next time I see the camera go from David Letterman to Paul Shaffer on 'The Late Show' I'm going to yell at my TV, "green screen!" [via Boing Boing]
Rescue Me gets the "how'd they do that?" treatment
This is pretty cool, especially since you don't usually get to see or read about stuff like this until you're watching a featurette on a DVD set.
For those that didn't catch last night's episode of Rescue Me ("Disease," S05E12), the opening scene featured a very cool fire sequence in which Tommy, Franco, Black Shawn, and Mike had to escape a burning apartment hallway. The entire sequence was eerily cut to the high-pitched vocals of Duffy and her song "Syrup & Honey," but what came across as most impressive was how real it all looked.
Primeval canceled
Looks like even a successful show can be canceled after a few years. ITV's Primeval (shown on BBC America on Saturday nights and on The Sci-Fi Channel) has been canceled after three seasons. The show was actually successful and well-liked and there's going to be a big-screen version too (and probably a U.S. version), but it was too expensive to produce.
Are you going to miss this show, or was three seasons enough?
Stan Winston dead at 62
One of the pioneers on the technical side of the movie and TV industry has died. Stan Winston did makeup and special effects for several TV shows and TV movies over the years, including Amazing Stories, Roots, Manimal, Get Christie Love, and Gargoyles, as well as dozens of classic movies, including Iron Man, all three Terminator films, Edward Scissorhands, The Thing, Pearl Harbor, Batman Returns, The Wiz, Predator, Jurassic Park III, The Relic, Congo, Aliens, Invaders From Mars, Leviathan, Galaxy Quest, and many others. He also directed several movies, including Pumpkinhead and Ghosts, which he also wrote. He also created the costumes for the infamous Star Wars Holiday Special in 1978. Winston won several Oscars and other awards for his work.
Winston died of cancer in Los Angeles last night at age 62. He had battled multiple myeloma for several years and died at his home. At the time of his death he was working on the next Terminator sequel, Terminator Salvation: The Future Begins.
The first annual TV Squad Awards winners
Finally, the moment you've all been waiting for is here -- we're now ready to announce the winners of the first annual TV Squad Awards!
During our call for nominations we received hundreds of comments for potential nominees, all of which were discussed among the TV Squad team before reaching our final list for each award. Once the nominees were announced, the votes poured in for the Readers' Choice award in each category -- thousands of votes when all totaled.
We hope you enjoyed these awards as much as we have. Being as this is only the first year for these awards, there may be tweaks to be made with the categories, so don't be surprised to see some additions or subtractions next year. Let us know what you liked or didn't like. And now, without further ado, follow below for each award's winner announcement page.
Things I Hate About TV: It's just like a movie!
Take Smith. The network (and more than a few TV critics and fans) kept saying it looked like watching a movie only on our TV sets. Um, yeah, only I think what people meant by this is that the cinematography in the pilot was good and it had some good explosions. Not a terrible show, but really, that's what it came down to.
Stephen Colbert's green screen challenge has a winner! -- VIDEO
Yes. Yes. George freakin' Lucas made an appearance on the show to present his green screen entry. The man whipped out the big guns from LucasFilm and created a hilarious clip... complete with Jar Jar Binks interaction! I can safely say that's the first time I've ever laughed at Jar Jar.

Leather Oud by Christian Dior
Leather and Oud together! Two of the most potentially challenging notes in perfumery paired together with the addition of an HUGE amount of animalistic notes (mainly civet), beeswax, other woods and birch. Leather Oud is definitely impressive with its bold and intense aroma. As a friend explained me, the oud here is mainly oudwood which is extremely different from the oil because it lacks the usual burnt-sugar and medicinal vibe. It smells strongly woody, dark, incredibly deep and smoky. Absurd amounts of animalic leather and civet with the addiction of birch, provide extra power and a skanky feel that is surely not intended for anyone who's looking for an easy-wear. Honey/beeswax play as a substantial refinement expecially when smelling the fragrance form a distance.

by Walter Chaw It's pretty common nowadays to look at the horror films of the 1950s as Cold War/McCarthy-era relics: allegories for a world torn between the antiseptic image of television's Golden Age and the seething undertow of a society slipping into the madness of the JFK/Medgar Evers assassinations, the 16th Street Baptist Church, the Freedom Summer Killings, the transition from the Korean War to Vietnam, and on and on and on until any pretense of innocence, in art and society, became tainted by irony. It was thought that 9/11 was an event horrific enough to end our gilded age of snark, but ironically is almost the only way that we view tragedy and institutional corruption. Though paranoia might have been planted in the duck-and-cover drills of the Fifties, in the suspicion and fear of returning WWII vets confronting a different world and haunted by demons, it didn't find full flower until the Rorschach coolness of the 1960s and the mean cinema of the 1970s.

Waterproof, breathable REISSA® liner allows perspiration out, but no moisture in
Is the liner permanently attached to the jacket or is it a removable rain liner?

I have had my TRANS.URBAN for a couple months. I have waited to comment as I wanted to get some riding in various weather accomplished. I have ridden the jacket for commuting and light/medium off-roading in temps ranging between 20F-50F.
Once received, first thing I noticed was the comfort of the jacket. Very comfortable, no binding or stiffness. Pockets are well placed and I like the side openings on the front pockets for hands. The jacket is comfortable sitting or standing on the bike.
I find the jacket quite warm and I have ridden without the liner the entire time. If I was going to be riding for more than 30-60 minutes, I would install the liner below 40 degrees.
This jacket replaced a jacket that I really really liked. I worried replacing a jacket like that would be difficult. It turned out not to be the case - This new jacket is really good without considering the relative low price.
I cannot comment on venting for waterproofness and it has been cold and dry here.
Subtle branding (Klim should take a hint)
Main zipper grip is a little small - I added some para-cord
Liner zipper size - I don't know if the major heated liner manufacturers have a common zipper size or not. My Gerbings liner zipped into my last jacket, quite convenient and I wish it would on the TRANS.URBAN (very fine liner zipper)
Jackets seem to run slightly big. I am 5'7" @ 155lb and the small size jacket fits me well although the upper arms could even be smaller.

The jacket is completely waterproof, the REISSA liner is not broken at any point throughout the jacket (except obviously the main zipper, where a 3 layer wind/rain flap and YKK zipper keeps out moister). REISSA is a great material as it manages to breath while still keeping out water, unlike the cheaper liners that are simply a vinyl plastic, it doesn't turn you into a rolling green house when you start to sweat.
We've been making gear since 1995 and have had very few quality issues during that time. We're offering a 2 year warranty on our street goods, which if you look around the industry, is a fairly unprecedented move. We feel confident doing this because we're devoted to quality control and design everything with longevity in mind. For instance we bartack all areas that are likely to experience a lot of pulling force (pocket ends, loops and the like) and all of our velcro points are box-stitched (rather than just running around the edges). We also pay really close attention to sew quality, we love good sew lines and spend an lot of time in the design phase eliminating awkward lines that result in unfinished edges or odd fabric overlaps.
We won't name names, but when we see folks giving 4-star reviews to certain jackets who's pockets have blown out within the first month of riding, we're flabbergasted. That's inexcusable to us, and the fact that people are OK with it really speaks to the quality expectations for gear in this price range.
Anyway, hope that answers some questions!
Here's a quick example image of our 3 layer wind/rain flap:
And here's an example of a bit of bartacking:

Well, after 3 days of impatiently waiting for UPS to get it here, I finally have it. (Can't complain about the free shipping from pilot tho!)
Initial thoughts:
Holy quality batman... I paid almost $500 for my tour-master transition 2 jacket/pant set, and while it was thicker, the quality wasn't even remotely close to this... At the price point I was a bit skeptical. I've seen other companies make high claims at a low price point, but in reality you got what you paid for... The reviews usually showed that as well.
I posted in a Facebook group of local riders here in OR inquiring about gear recommendations, because I DESPERATELY needed some new gear (Summer and winter) and someone posted up about the pilot gear. I started looking into it but couldn't find much information anywhere. I had seen the prices and was instantly skeptical... Then I found this thread, and one on another forum (I don't remember which one anymore) and people saying truths about what Pilot claimed. So I took the risk of having my wife either at my throat for a costly mistake, or super happy that I got $1200 worth of gear for about $350...
I honestly think based on my try-on and very detailed look at the jacket and pants, that this was a D@MN good purchase! I ordered a large, probably could have gotten away with a medium, but there is enough adjust-ability in the jacket and pants that they will work. (I'm 6'3" 150 lbs, 32" waist, 34-36" inseam depending on brand... Skinny!)
The pants at the tightest setting are big enough that with my jeans on, with my holster IWB, and leatherman pouch OWB, they should stay up no problem. (This is a good thing for me because my last winter pants were VERY tight for concealed carry).
The large jacket has more than enough adjustment to make things work for me. again, I probably should have ordered a medium, but because of my dire need for it now, and the insanely versatile amount of adjust-ability, I'm not worried about getting it exchanged.
The knee and elbow (Knee-bow?) pads are the most comfortable I've ever experienced. Very form fitting, and they sit in a very comfortable position when in a riding position. When standing/ walking, I don't even notice them.
The YKK zippers are amazing. The velcro is INCREDIBLY sticky... Remind me again why you put zippers on there again? Cause holy cow does that stuff grip... I'm sure it will break in with time and be much easier to pull apart... Just another area where they paid attention to detail!!!
If any of you have been in the Army recently, you have the same distain for Velcro that I do... Because when you first get your uniforms, it's nice and crisp, pockets stay shut nicely, and they're reasonably easy to open to get to stuff too. But after about 3 weeks of solid wear, the velcro starts to wear out on the pockets you use most... All of the sudden your missing a glove cause your cargo pocket came undone and your notebook is somewhere at your last firing point / OP because your sleeve pocket opened without your permission... (Just a note: I have never personally lost stuff because of pockets opening... But I know everyone has issues with the velcro staying shut on the ACU's... Not to mention the tactical disadvantages...)
Anyways, I digress... Pilot has taken into account the break-in of Velcro, so I expect that after a break-in period, the velcro will be at its ideal stickyness. (Is that even a word? Screw it... it is now...)
The only (sort of) negative thing I have to say is about the Pants... The hip armor is in two well designed pockets, but they flop around while the pants are off, instead of being attached at the inside. I understand the design idea behind it, being that they have a zipper that goes all the way up to the waistline. I just find it... Interesting. (It doesn't move around at all while wearing the pants tho)
Anyways, sorry about the novel. I will post up a detailed wet weather review when I get a chance to ride in the rain. (It's bound to happen... This is Oregon after all...) I do have an agreement to wear my old jacket for the rest of this winter season, or until the zipper breaks on it too (it's on its way), UNLESS its raining... (She knows it's not waterproof like it's supposed to be...)
I can't wait for warmer weather to get here because I WILL be purchasing their mesh jacket as well...
Cheers all
Just went for a ride, and this jacket is easily as warm, if not warmer than my tour master one... I actually may send it back for a medium tho, as the jacket isn't as pressing as the pants are for me...
Still money well spent so far!!!

Winter gear is for winter. Summer gear is summer gear. You can't possibly expect a jacket that keeps you toasty warm in 30* weather, to keep you cool in 70*+ weather. Aside from once out of curiosity to see if they worked, I've never actually opened the vents on my winter jackets to make them wearable in the summer. (And that test I was miserable). Why doesn't it work? Because in order to maintain waterproof capability, the waterproof layer must not be broken. So the vents actually vent the air to the outside of the waterproof layer. That does no good for the sweat building up on your body. While yes, a gore-red or Riessa liner is breathable, if you've ever sat in traffic on the freeway in 80* weather, nothing will help prevent you from sweating. Not even mesh, until you start moving. That's where the major difference will be made. If you want a jacket that will be better in warm weather, go for their mesh jacket listed on their website. (I can assure you that will be a future purchase of mine.) use a tool for what it's intended for, and you'll have better results. 👍👍
Now that said, I will test this jacket like I have others in the past, but I expect the results to be similar because a winter jacket is just that. A winter jacket. I'd rather buy 2 jackets that fit properly and work well, than 1 jacket that does OK with everything.
Also, with the pilot jackets, you are getting essentially 2 3-season jackets. The mesh one comes with the waterproof liner (see website) that it should be good from spring - fall, and the trans urban has a removable liner that should be good from fall-spring, so there really is a lot of flexibility there, moreso than a lot of other brands, and I can guarantee you won't find better quality at this price point.

Test: PASSED!
First off, I am not sponsored by Pilot in any way. I do hope that my reviews generate sales for them tho because a good honest company with a product this good, deserves to make some money!!!
Allllllright... So living in the good old PNW, we get rain, and LOTS of it... Some have called me crazy for having a M/C as my DD. But to be honest, with proper rain gear, it's not really that bad. My requirement for rain gear is it has to withstand a torrential downpour on the freeway at 70MPH for an hour, and me not getting wet. (Keep in mind on the freeway, there's other traffic kicking the water up off the street, into the air, and all over me, so we're talking a TON of water... Like, firehose amount of water...)
I am pleased to share that the Pilot Trans-Urban jacket IS PROPER RAIN GEAR! I tested this a few times over the last couple weeks, and am quite pleased!
For my tests, I will be using the following scale as far as water hitting me goes:
1 = Dense fog.
10 = Southern style torrential downpour (dime-sized water droplets, falling fast and hard!)
Typical rain around the Portland area I'd give a 4-5
All testing is on a 2013 Kawasaki Concours 14 with a Stock windshield 3/4 the way up. (I did part of the first test with it all the way down, wind hitting me about mid chest)
First test: 50 degrees outside, Raining pretty freaking hard (I'd give it a 9) had to ride 30 minutes in one direction to a photoshoot, worked for an hour, and rode back. First 10 minutes of the ride home was dry, last 20 minutes was back at a 8 on the rain scale.
What stayed dry: my legs, torso, and arms. I was extremely warm, and had a tiny bit of sweat buildup in the seat, and top of my legs, but upon stopping the inside of the pants was 100% dry. My jacket I was wearing underneath was also 100% dry. (I still over dressed as I am used to my old jacket that didn't do NEARLY as good a job at keeping me warm...)
What got wet: just a touch around the collar (to be expected, but the neck gaiter I wear when it's raining keeps me the rest of the way dry, but this is a jacket/ pant review, not a neck gaiter review...) and from the end of the sleeves, about 3" up, and slightly inside my gloves when I arrived at my destination....
And here is the only fault I could find with this jacket...
If you look at the top photo, you'll notice the velcro goes up on the sleeve. This creates a gutter of sorts for water to sit in (photo 2) and soak into the fabric. (which the fabric wraps around the AMAZING Reissa liner to protect it, obviously) and that water wicks up the sleeve a couple inches. When you stop (or take your hands off the handlebars at a stoplight that water that was trapped in the "gutter" leaves the gutter and drains straight into your gloves (Photo 3). Obviously this is a very easy fix by switching the way the velcro goes, and having it go down instead of up. I believe that would also remedy the water wicking into the fabric and up the sleeve just a touch. This is a fix I would hope to see this change on the next generation of this jacket, and quite frankly, is the only thing I found wrong...
But let's remember something... This jacket is EXTREMELY warm, and is sub $300, and I stayed dry through a torrential monsoon! I couldn't say the same for my other jacket... (Which i had to wear a gore-tex jacket over the top of to stay dry...)
Do not let that little bit deter you from buying this jacket... It will be money well spent, and if you plan ahead, you can put the velcro strap on looser, than take your finger and flip that gutter upside down so the water falls away from the channel instead of into it. I found this to help a lot in my next test....
Second Test: 35 minutes freeway one-way to the armory, rain falling about 7-8 on the above scale.
I 'flipped the gutter' like I mentioned just above, and everything stayed dry. The gloves were completely dry, no water wicking up the cuff, and when I got off no water channeled down into the gloves. I was 100% dry! (And warm!)
In closing, I am 100% satisfied with this jacket/pant combo... Quite affordable, and protection from the elements of gear upwards of $600+ for just the jacket! You WILL NOT go wrong or regret buying this... I can't wait to see what other things Pilot has in store for us street riders!

Finally warming up around here. Rode just over 100 miles (mainly off-road) with outside temps ranging from high 50s to mid 70s. Wanted to comment on the venting; during the last leg of the road home (on tarmac) I was getting warm. Opened the vents near the shoulders and thought - ok that is something new, as most of my jackets have had vents near the chest pockets. Well, now I think the location of the shoulder vents is brilliant. My shoulders are outside of the wind block caused by my windscreen allowing the vents to work in the air stream! The vents performed wonderfully.
