A dress photo could mean big online business for a UK retailer
Women's clothing brand Roman Originals has been inundated by calls since the photo became the center of an online debate.
The seller of military-inspired gear has the highest Facebook engagement rate in Internet Retailer's new Social Media 500. Learn the retailer's secret to inspiring customers to Like its content, share its posts and click through to its e-commerce site.
One Sunday evening this past holiday shopping season, Ranger Up, a maker and web-only retailer of military-inspired clothing and gear, posted an image on Facebook of colorful mistletoe hanging from the rafters. Next to the mistletoe hung a dry erase board scribbled with the words, "Missile TOW." The merchant coupled the image with the line, "It's that time of year."
While many consumers might not get the reference to TOW missiles—a remotely guided antitank weapon—many of Ranger Up's more than 200,000 Facebook fans sure did. It went over gangbusters with fans, largely current and former members of the military and their families. Within 21 hours, the post garnered 1,252 shares, 4,208 Likes and 79 comments ranging from "LOL hilarious, buahahaha," to "Love it. Lots of folks won't get it."
The fact that Ranger Up's fans get the in joke is testament to how well Ranger Up knows its fans and how to speak to them effectively. Ranger Up's Facebook posts and YouTube videos not only make people laugh, they also inspire them to pass the content on to friends. On average, each of the e-retailer's posts garner 982 Likes, 54 comments and 302 shares, according to data provided by digital marketing firm W2O Group for the just-launched Internet Retailer Social Media 500.
Ranger Up is similar to others at the highest ranks of this year's Social Media 500, as many are masters at inspiring Facebook fans to share their posts with friends, Like their products or leave comments. The Top 10 e-retailers in the Social Media 500 have a 30% engagement rate on Facebook—more than 10 times the 2% engagement rate of all merchants ranked in this publication. What this means is that of the nearly 5 million Facebook fans of the Top 10 merchants, 30%, or close to 1.5 million consumers, are interacting on Facebook with the those brands weekly—whether it be Liking something, clicking on a post, commenting on it or sharing it.
Moreover, all of this interacting ultimately leads to sales, says Ranger Up's founder Nick Palmisciano. The merchant's high level of engagement is what drove $750,000 in social commerce sales for the e-retailer in 2013—as 28% of its total online sales came from shoppers who clicked to the site from social networks.
The role of social networks in driving traffic is even greater: Nearly 39% of Ranger Up's 2013 traffic stemmed from Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and YouTube, the e-retailer says. That earns the merchant the No. 2 spot in this year's Social Media 500, which ranks online retailers by the percentage of traffic they receive from social networks, a measure of how effectively they are reaching their audience via social media.
"The key to this is that we have a page worth visiting," Palmisciano says. "I post things that would amuse my friends, things that I think my friends would want to know, things that will improve their lives. And yeah, we also post shirts that we think our friends would want to wear. The result is that our engagement is through the roof. Anyone can pay money and get a Like. It takes work to get people engaged."
This year's Social Media 500 is dominated mostly by small and nimble web-only retailers like Ranger Up that invest time and focus into posting content that speaks to fans and followers. There are signs, however, that some of the larger and older merchants not usually associated with a strong social presence are making a real push to advance their social strategies. For example, Office Depot, ranked No. 492, boosted direct sales from social networks more than 350% in 2013. Business-to-business e-commerce giant W.W. Grainger (No. 473) increased social-derived traffic 158%.

5 Highest-Priced Movie and TV Cars of All Time
Second-costliest: Batmobile from the TV show Batman
Price: $4.6 million
Some 12,000 people packed a 3-acre tent in Scottsdale, Ariz., last month to watch Barrett-Jackson auction off this car from iconic television show Batman.
Barrett-Jackson CEO Craig Jackson says the vehicle would have attracted an even higher price than the $4.6 million it sold for had the last two bidders not decided to flip a coin to decide who got the car.
"One of the men said he'd brought $10 million, but who knows at what point one of them would have said: 'This is crazy!'" Jackson says. The auctioneer believes the vehicle attracted such a lofty price because the Batmobile "was one of the stars of the show. It did things -- it was an integral part of Batman and Robin catching criminals." After all, the vehicle has all sorts of superhero gadgets, from a built-in "batphone" to two rear-mounted parachutes.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Global Manufacturing Management
Would you like to work with management and leadership in international technology companies? Then this is the perfect study programme for you. We are expanding your engineering expertise with a combination of courses in topics including strategy, industrial economics, production, logistics and technology management.
Global production and the intensifying competitive challenges in the world market calls for an understanding of how strategic improvements can be made at the supply chain, enterprise and operations level. Global Manufacturing Management aims at giving students a holistic theoretical foundation and analytical skills to effectively address these challenges. The students will gain a broad and integrated set of capabilities, combining engineering and management competences with a global perspective.
NTNU is a world leader in the education of manufacturing and logistics. Global Manufacturing Management (GMM) is a collaboration between The Department of Production and Quality Engineering and The Department of Industrial Economics and Technology Management. Through close cooperation with the industry you will gain a broad, interdisciplinary knowledge with a global perspective.
Globalization has economic, technological, cultural and political aspects. Insight and understanding of these aspects are Important in order to lead projects and technology across national boundaries. Knowledge of strategic management is the key to successful global players; simultaneously the technology and engineering knowledge is fundamental to all technology leaders. This programme provides an in-depth understanding of a company's strategic position and how to develop competitive advantage in the global market.
Production of products to a global market arise several issues:
- Should we expand existing plants or build new? How does this affect the scale advantages?
- Where should a new plant be located? Is there a supply of cheap labor, or is skilled labor more important? Will political instability or cultural differences become problematic?
- Where should we produce the goods? Should each plant produce a particular commodity or should all of the factories in a manufacturing network produce the same products? And where do we position the development departments?
- How are the assignments in the production network coordinated and managed? Should the various factories compete with each other or should they cooperate to develop better production methods?
- How do we collaborate across the value chain? How is the relationship with suppliers of raw material or other important components?
- Who is the customer and how do we communicate with them? What IT systems allow us to share important real-time information between different companies?
These are examples of some of the issues that you will meet through this programme. The programme focuses on strategic management of manufacturing in an international value chain. This means that one must combine interdisciplinary experience and theoretical insights from many different disciplines such as industrial economics, purchasing, logistics, technology management, cultural, political science, project management, manufacturing strategy, supply chain management and knowledge management.
In the second semester, students take a course on systems engineering that gives a laboratory interdisciplinary experience. Follow this link to see the results the students achieve in this course: http://video.adm.ntnu.no/openVideo/serier/53916f6232f2c.

The Next Tsunami
Living on A Restless Coast

PoliticsSyrian military bombards rebel strongholds The battle for Aleppo, Syria's largest city, rages into sixth day, as military launches aerial campaign. 26 Jul 2012 13:58 GMT | Politics, Middle East, US & Canada, Bosnia, China Activists say Syrian forces are shelling several neighbourhoods in Aleppo as the battle for control of Syria's largest city rages into its sixth day.Most fighters believe the bombardments will be followed by a ground campaign to pacify the city, although by Thursday morning reports of massive regime reinforcements had yet to materialise. There were also reports that government forces were shelling Damascus, Idlib and Homs on Thursday. A rebel spokesperson told the AFP news agency via Skype, however, that a "large number" of troops have been moved from the northwestern province of Idlib to Aleppo. Last week, Syrian troops used a similar combination of aerial bombardments and overwhelming ground force to quash a rebel assault on Damascus. Live Box 20117693233259422 Local activist Mohammed Saeed told the AP news agency that the shelling seems to be random and clashes had spread to key neighbourhoods in the centre of the city.The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said the fighting and shelling in Aleppo killed 26 people on Wednesday, including many children. Herve Ladsous, the UN peacekeeping chief, said he had told Syrian officials that without a significant reduction in violence, the remaining 150 UN observers would leave on the expiry of the "final" 30-day extension of the mission's mandate, agreed by the Security Council on July 20. Kurdish gains Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan said on Thursday Turkey could act against a "terrorist" organisation in northern Syria if it sees it as a threat, referring to outlawed Kurdish militants.Erdogan's comments Thursday follow reports that Kurdish rebels and the Democratic Union Party of Syria took control of five cities along the Syrian-Turkish border."We will not allow a terrorist group to establish camps in northern Syria and threaten Turkey," Erdogan told a newsconference."If there is a step which needs to be taken against the terrorist group, we will definitely take this step," he said. High-level defectionsAs the violence increases, high-level defections from Assad's regime are growing. The US on Wednesday confirmed the defections of two senior Syrian diplomats: Abdel Latif Dabbagh, the ambassador to the UAE, and and his wife Lamia al-Hariri, the Syrian charge d'affaires in Cyprus. White House spokesperson Jay Carney told reporters aboard Air Force One that the moves showed that "senior officials around the Assad inner circle are fleeing the government because of the heinous actions taken by Assad against his own people, and the recognition that Assad's days are numbered". Live Box 2011421105226899357 Earlier, a senior state department official said: "These defections serve as a reminder that the bottom is starting to fall out of the regime. It is crumbling and losing its grip on power." The Syrian foreign ministry downplayed the latest defection reports on Syrian state television on Thursday.Lamia al-Hariri is not an ambassador, they said, and had an administrative rather than a diplomatic post in Cyprus. Ban Ki-moon, the UN chief, in Bosnia to visit the site of the Srebrenica genocide in 1995, told the parliament there that "the international community is being tested in Syria". Syrians continue to flee The stream of refugees fleeing Syria has continued as more than 150 Syrian families crossed into Iraq on Wednesday. The Iraqi government has set up two camps for the refugees, and on Tuesday, it opened its border crossings to allow Syrians escaping the violence to enter the country. Turkey indefinitely closed three border crossings to Turkish nationals trying to get into Syria, citing security concerns. The UN refugee agency in Geneva said about 300 people fled from Syria into Turkey on Tuesday night. Live Box 201262844547892886 Thousands of Syrians have taken shelter into neighbouring Lebanon and Turkey. The Britain-based Syrian Observatory also reported clashes in the Hajar al-Aswad district of Damascus, one of the last remaining rebel bastions after 10 days of fighting in the capital. In Hama province in central Syria, a couple and their two children were killed as they tried to flee shelling. A video distributed by the Observatory showed grisly footage of the bodies. Nationwide, the monitoring group put the death toll at 108 by Wednesday evening - 57 civilians, 36 soldiers and 15 rebels, while it said 158 people were killed across Syria on Tuesday. The rights group Amnesty International warned about disturbing reports of "summary executions" by both Syrian troops and rebels, calling them "serious violations of international law".Source: Agencies

Well, the tanks are Abrams as well. (hubby started as a tanker D Co., 3/77th Armor, early 1990s)
And I echo the thought about the writing, but I definitely look forward to seeing them as the cgi was getting more and more annoying.
Printable View
A few years ago there was a network TV crime or FBI show (I never watched). Can't remember the name of it. It had a thin pale, blonde lead actress whose hair was always a mess, which is about all I can describe the program with. But I think it was shot in digital and it always had a blueish, cold, contrasty look--just awful. No saturation. I think it's gone off the air now maybe, but THAT is as good an examble of bad of "ambiance" as I can point out. Just a terrible program, largely because of the digital shooting (and the blonde who needed a brush).
I don't know, I assume good post production can make digital look fine. I guess my point is if digital is done to look like film, I doubt anyone in the theater can tell the difference. In other words, this is just the evil Disney marketing machine trying to appeal to people who liked the original three movies. They'll still be using CGI to do all the effects, ships etc. anyway, right? It's not like anyone is going to build physical models like they did for the original series, are they?
Never seen Star Wars. Just never was a fan.
As I've mentioned before Abrams is a big fan of model and yes there will be some CGI but to a lesser extent than other Sci-Fi Movies. Miniature models are still superior to cgi and the cost are almost the same. Due to the overuse of digital manipulation at the DI Stage film looks almost like digital and not vice versa (Transformers 2 is a good example). Unmanipulated film looks very different to say the RED look (Video) or Arri Alexa look (better than Video) and even a half blind monkey can spot the difference. The question is wether the moviegoers care or not.
I wish I knew what "ambiance" meant in this context. And, "The Empire Strikes Back" used many models instead of CGI.
I'm not sure if I'm interested in the new Star Wars. The first three certainly were good. When the fourth (Episode 1) came out I was very disappointed. Not only were the computer graphics less realistic than models and puppets, but the cinematography seemed lacking, and the story line was very poorly executed. I didn't even watch the next ones all the way through when they hit TV - just the odd 15-minutes when channel surfing.
Although I can overlook cgi and digital to a point (a story like Star Wars does require the typical suspension of disbelief as it is), the writing and plot are what turned me off.
That ought to be good for a few million feet of film. Good for Kodak!

Enjoying the season, close to the end now. I have watched the series (Project Runway) since it's inception and enjoy a reality show that has actual TALENT.
Love watching the beautiful runway shows.
Wondering what Irena has done to her face that it does not move, ever. Please Irena, stop the injections. You are fine without them and it was distracting.
Where is last weeks episode
I bought the season pass for SD and it's tuesday already and I am still waiting for last week's episode...
Episodes simply don't appear for weeks on end, absolute rubbish customer service.

Brisco - You Know What I'm Talkin' Bout ft. Flo Rida & Busta Rhymes
Artist: Brisco
Featuring: Flo Rida, Busta Rhymes
Producer: Mizzle
Album: Street Medicine
Avg Rating: 2.5 ( 28 votes )
The latest of many artists to leave Cash Money Records, Brisco's hoping this new potential single will help attract brand new distribution for his forthcoming album, Street Medicine As he did on the ultra-catchy Just Know Dat (eight months later, it's still in my head), the Opa Locka native calls on two of his heavyweight connects to create a 305 anthem. Though Brisco knows that "You Know What I'm Talkin' Bout," he drives the point home with a flash of his cash. Labelmate Flo Rida contributes a confident hook, and Busta expands on the "recession-proof" theme in his guest verse. Mizzle backs the trio's stunting with a thumping beat best experienced with 18s in your car trunk. Brisco's clearly confident that he can maintain his high-rolling lifestyle in any economy; the question is, will the labels be convinced?

Go to MIT–for free
| February 12, 2009 |
If you've ever wondered what it would be like to study engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, you might be interested to know you can get the lectures, notes and reading lists for every course in every degree field they offer for free online. It's called MIT Open Course Ware.
Granted it's not the same as going to classes and interacting with professors and other students (and if you want to buy the books you're on your own), but all in all it's still pretty impressive. If you know any kids who are interested in engineering, let them know about it. You can bet your bottom dollar there are plenty of young people in China and India using this resource.

"Interesting, but disappointing"
It was an interesting aspect of history
A bit disappointing -- I would have liked more discussion of the negotiation process and results.
Not sure
I found this disappointing for a few reasons:
1) I've enjoyed the authors' "Active History" books (Civil War and WW II) and thought this was one. It's not so it initially looked like a history book with fictional interactions (like "Killer Angels"). However, the authors spent so much time on the stories of Peter and Alan that it ultimately seemed more like a historical fiction book. I enjoy that, but not what I was expecting.
2) The authors spent way too much time on the fictitious characters and too little time on other things -- the actual battle at Yorktown.
3) Most of the characters seemed stereotyped and they all have the same thought processes
"Great book, good reading"
This is a great, classic book and an outstanding (though very different) sequel to Ender's Game.
The overall presentation was pretty good, but I found the frequent shifting between narrator's somewhat off-putting. I've seen other books work well with multiple narrators, but here the shifts seemed too frequent and the narration jarringly different.
"Great second book"
Sanderson has created another great series and this is a great instance of this series. The story is good, the characters solid, and the plot has some good twists.
A great book and a very good presentation of it.
Anxiously awaiting the next one.
"Great 2nd book in the series"
I found this book to be thoroughly enjoyable and will anxiously await the next. The magic system is interesting, the characters fairly well developed, and he's clearly set up for an epic.
However, I do have a few comments:
1) As in his other books, some of the characters occasionally get "noble" to the point of stupidity.
2) I worry that he's picked up potentially bad habits from his time working with Robert Jordan. It's as if he figures, "If they like this, they'll love another few hundred pages and several more books." I worry that, if he really does 10 books as he's planned, they might lose their way and bog down like Jordan.
So, I do hope he continues, but I hope he has a good editor keeping his books focused and (relatively) brief. The first two books are already longer than the entire Lord of the Rings trilogy, but haven't told a more entrancing story.
"Great explanation of early WWI"
Though I had read other books on WWI, I hadn't read this classic. It gave me a much better understanding of the moves in early WWI and the mindsets behind them. I feel I know the war much better than I had. The book was interesting, with a good feel for characters.
"Good series, but a slow book"
I LOVED "To Your Scattered Bodies Go" and enjoyed the next. However, though this book contained a few of those positive elements, this book was simply too slow and seemed to take a lot of time for not too much action. It kind of reminded me of one of the latter ones in Robert Jordan's "Wheel of Time" series -- lots of philosophical discussion, lots of character introspection, not a lot of action. It was also disturbing that, as the characters had introspective discussions, many seemed similar.
Also, as they waxed philosophical at GREAT length (about Kas, souls, etc) I found I had a hard time believing that mankind (in general) would respond the way the series suggests upon the surprising resurrection.
"Pretty good, but not as good as I remember it"
I love the magic system
I really enjoyed this series when I first read it. However, upon reading it again, I was struck by how "juvenile" and/or stupid most of the characters are. I'm going to have to wait to see if I develop the interest to re-read the rest of the series.
"A good conclusion to a good series"
It wrapped up the series nicely
The early books in Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time series (before they got REAL slow). It has a similar feel, with similarly interesting facets (esp. the magic), and also some similar annoyances.
The wrap-up of the two "gods"/powers
I really liked the 3 magic systems and the discussion of the 3 races created by the Lord Ruler.
There were annoying parts to this book, as there were with the others (esp. book 2). In particular:
1) Sazed's melancholy and obsession with religious review seemed FAR overdone and quite out of character for one so stoic and logical. His "analysis" of the religions also seemed deeply flawed.
2) As in the previous books, Elend and the crew's refusal/hesitancy to kill evil leaders cost hundreds of lives and wasted valuable time (though it theoretically "proves" right in the end).
"Good book, but some flaws"
It's a good setting and a I love the magic systems.
Elend Venture's actions as king are just insipid and his "morality" is anything but -- hundreds of people die because he won't have the assaulting kings assassinated.
Yes. It IS entertaining, despite some flaws.
The book is well and enticingly read. He does a pretty good job with varied voices.
Perhaps a movie. Vinn should be played by Jennifer Lawrence.
"Pretty good conclusion"
I might. In fact, I just listened to it for the second time, in part because I initially forgot I had listened to it before.
He did a pretty good job, even considering the range of voices to do
No, it was good, but neither great nor poor.
I didn't feel the book was as bad as some reviewers suggest. Yes, he could use an editor that forced him to "tighten things up" a bit, but he's FAR, FAR better (in that sense) than, say, Robert Jordan. He occasionally dwelled on things of little relevance, but it wasn't for entire books at a time.
The only thing I thought was a bit crazy was the whole maudlin "farewell tour" in the epilogue. I like a good epilogue (I had to write my own because the one at the end of Harry Potter 7 was unsatisfactory), but this was just silly.
Also, the whole "where do the dragons" go decision seemed a bit odd -- certainly there are other solutions.
"A great conclusion to an epic series"
Enjoyable story and a sense of relief that it's finally done
At first I thought I'd find the shift of readers annoying, but it worked well and helped break up the narrative.
The series was LOOOOONG and about half of the books dragged horribly, but overall the series was very good and this concluded it excellently.

So why are many of the newest "Red" sailplanes using a fixed stab with elevator?
Pretty simple!...but not.
Firstly everything has evolved, we have almost zero aero-elasticity in our airframes, surfaces, servo centering and holding and linkages. Next the airfoils used for stabs and the understanding of the use of stabs for our applications have become more specific. but mostly.......ready???? We have found out that balancing for stability, feel, performance, etc was goofy, and that all of our models balance in the same spot from DLGs to F3J...so setting the incidence of the fixed portion is uniformly defined regardless of the model. Oh, oh! Yes boys, if you get the new Pike Precision, or Perfection or a lot of the new F5J or any of the new F3J Vtail ships, you have no choice about CG!!!! You will have to actually learn to fly the model you paid for! :-). I just got one of Wil Lipscombs Supra X 4m ships with fixed articulated stab! 6 months ago I would have told you that I would never ever own a TD ship with a fixed stab!!!! (well okay I don't mean the sacred Genital Lady I fly! :-). A full flying stab allows the pilot to set the balance anywhere he wants...and I thought I wanted that option...(I also thought using a slider for camber was important at one point :-). Gordy |

My main goal is to have a glider that will fly upright and inverted lines (level, 45° and vertical) with similar pitch feel and with limited pitch correction on my part... at a variety speeds. I like to start with a glider which has zero incidence between wing and fixed stab. I usually start with a CG at the 25%-30% of MAC line. I then I do a series of flights: flying/landing/adjusting/flying/etc. I like to do upright and inverted level passes to see how the glider trims out. If I have to hold a lot of elevator (either inverted or upright), I land and remove some nose weight. The goal is to have minimal pull/push on the elevator. I also do some dive tests, upright and inverted, to see if the glider will hold the 45° line. From level flight I push/pull into a 45° downline and then let go of the sticks. If I balloon up I remove some nose weight. If I tuck (dive further) I add a bit of nose weight. If I pretty much hold the line, I call it good. I find that my gliders feel best when they hold 45° and vertical lines "hands off" (with maybe just a minor pullout after several seconds) and hold horizontal lines with just a nudge of elevator pull/push. This balance has a "light" neutral feel on the sticks and gives me the best opportunity to carve accurate figures AND do precise stall maneuvers/recoveries (i.e. snap rolls and spins). Dawson |
Dec 12, 2012, 11:35 AM | ||
I assume this test should be done without flaps, but what flight mode should I use? Cruise? Camber? Reflex? Should I try different modes? |
Dec 12, 2012, 01:32 PM | ||
But let Gordy define that. |

As usual, Twitter Inc (NYSE:TWTR) call volume handily outstripped put volume yesterday. What's more, the microblogging stock's 30-day at-the-money implied volatility popped 4.3% to close at 65.6%, signaling elevated demand for short-term options.
Along those lines, TWTR's weekly 7/11 41-strike call saw significant demand -- in fact, more than 7,200 contracts traded here, the second most of any strike. A sizable amount crossed at the ask price, and open interest rose here more than any other strike overnight, collectively suggesting buy-to-open activity.
In a nutshell, the traders expect the shares to rally past breakeven at $41.63 -- or the strike price plus the volume-weighted average price of $0.63 -- by this Friday's close, when the weekly options expire. Gains are theoretically unlimited north of breakeven, while the most the buyers have on the line is the initial premium paid, should TWTR end the week south of the strike.
Yesterday's speculators can't be happy with what they're seeing today, however, with Twitter Inc (NYSE:TWTR) off 7.1% to $37.37. As such, delta for the out-of-the-money calls has dropped to 0.067 from 0.36 at Monday's close.

The Dunlop tires that cops used on RTP?
I am using the road pilot...great grip, but they make a lot of noise except when going straight--just like the Metz used to do my ex-Goldwing.
I was thinking the Dunlops would probably last longer, do they?

I used 'em on my Airhead, still do, for the last 34 years. Nothing but good to say here. BMW actually had them on their NO USE list of tire recommended for their bikes years ago! BMW Dealers would not sell'em. This is dating back a lot of years and not probably so anymore. Riders usually find whats best out there and Dunlop is a legend tire builder, imo. The old K491s were one "hall of fame" tire that went away after a LONG run, sad to say. It was bombproof. Randy
I ashed the same question about better wear to the BMW Dealer in San Diego. He claimed the police use them because of the stiifer side wall and not for wear. They get about the same as all the other popular brands.

Try the Bridgestone 023GT. Very impressive wear life and grip. They got this one right. The GT variant is load rated for the RT.
They were about the spookiest tire I've ever ridden on in the wet. Wet tar snakes put me all over the road..
Good part about them was - you could lose all the air and the sidewalls were so stiff they'd still stay semi-inflated. Tires have come a LONG way since the K491.. (thank Dog!)

I thought for a while that I was the only one that hated the K491. I tried one of them about 20-25 years ago on the rear of an airhead. I found it to be rough riding, noisy, and after a few thousand miles it wore flat in the center and looked like a car tire. There seemed to be an edge that I had to "roll over" in the curves, that is not a good thing on the roads I ride here in southeastern Tennessee, northern Georgia, and North Carolina.
I never felt comfortable with that tire, I just couldn't take it any more and changed it about half way through its life. After putting on one of the Metzlers, the bike felt transformed and was back to normal. I know a lot of people who raved about them and I was beginning to feel like the oddball. The excellent mileage was the only real benefit, but the trade off was way too much in my opinion. YMMV Stepping down off of soapbox now!
Any tire is going to slip on those on a hot day. My miles and 491s were what I said to be for my liking. I rode every type of weather for years and years on'em. Never slipped in rain,etc., or had an issue of any kind with 491s, riding a LOT more miles than average. Same with todays tires, everybody hates some tires, loves others. I stand behind the old tire, shame its gone. 404s today on my Airhead and they last half the miles, but good. Randy
Disclaimer - start with I don't like Dunlop tires.
I did run two sets of 491s on my K75. One was a trial set prior to the Iron Butt Rally. I wanted to see how long they would last. I concluded the frontwould go from home to start to finish to home, but the rear wouldn't so I planned a change at the mid-point checkpoint. They were OK except in the rain where the rear slid some in the remains of Hurricane Dennis in the hills of West Virginia.
I tried a set on my K1100LT. The rear slipped starting to pass a car on a straight concrete stretch of I-29. I tried to be very gently with the throttle but the rear still didn't want to stick on wet pavement - asphalt or concrete. I put 600 miles on the tires, took them off, and gave them away to a rider with an Airhead. He reported they did OK, but the rear wheel horsepower on a K1100LT and an R80RT are a bit different.

"The greatest challenge to any thinker is stating the problem in a way that will allow a solution." - Bertrand Russell
The last generation of Dunlop RoadSmarts outlasted Michelin PR2 on my 08 RT by a little and were less noisy. Their profile gave them a faster, less linear turn in, also.
The PR2s were noisy as heck especially when worn and cornering. I could hear the front tread blocks from new.
Currently working my way through some sets of PR3s to see if they're as much an impovment as claimed and havn't tried the latest RoadSmart but have no reason to think it wouldn't be at least as good as the last version which was a brit publications tire of the year in 2008- and they do see a litttle of the wet stuff there. I certainly had no traction complaints wet or dry for the RoadSmarts- they were a whole lot better than the oem BT-020 that came on my RT. The stockers tramlined badly and had lousy cold and wet traction.
Let us know how the Pilot 3 work for you
not necessarily true. have run some nasty tar-snaked roads (US 14 in CO, US 89 in UT come to mind), and never had any slippage on Pirelli Diablo Stradas, which have been superceded by their Angel STs. sure, they felt a bit squirmy at times, but it was actually the tar snake moving under the tire, not the tire slipping on the surface. (tested at uber-illegal speeds too, just to be sure!) Said roads ridden in near freezing temps, as well as above 100 degs.
Ride Safe, Ride Lots
Have put approx 7K miles on Dunlops and the tread still looks good - Appears they still have 3-4K left. Didn't feel squeamish in the rain, grip wasn't much different than on dry slab although I did reduce my normal speed by about 15%.
Will replace with another set of Dunlops when needed.

Washington — Samantha Power, President Barack Obama's nominee to be the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, promised to push for action on Syria and fight what she termed "unacceptable bias" against Israel at the world body during her Senate confirmation hearing on Wednesday.
"We see the failure of the U.N. Security Council to respond to the slaughter in Syria - a disgrace that history will judge harshly," Power, best known as a human rights advocate, said in testimony to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.
The 42-year-old's confirmation is expected to win strong support in both the committee and full Senate. The foreign relations panel will likely vote on Power's nomination next Tuesday, said Senator Robert Menendez, its chairman.
The committee's approval would pave the way for a vote in the 100-member Senate shortly afterward.
During mostly friendly questioning, Power, who won a Pulitzer Prize for her study of U.S. failures to prevent genocide, called Syria one of the "most devastating cases of mass atrocity that I have ever seen."
Syrian President Bashar al-Assad's government has "written a new playbook for brutality," she said. She said Washington needs to push Russia in particular on Syria, although she acknowledged that she does not expect action soon.
One U.N. Security Council diplomat expressed skepticism about Powers' ability to bring Russia and China around to an anti-Assad stance on Syria, saying on condition of anonymity, "Good luck."
Power said the United Nations should do more to push Iran to negotiate an end to its nuclear program. Noting that she had been part of the Obama administration push for tough sanctions, Power said she backed tightening them by closing loopholes.
Nominated to replace new National Security Adviser Susan Rice, Power also took a tough line on attitudes in the United Nations on Israel.
She promised to end what she termed "unacceptable bias and attacks" against the close U.S. ally, and criticized Iran, calling for tightened sanctions.
She also said she would lobby for Israel to get a seat on the U.N. Security Council, a U.S. policy that has been blocked by the large number of countries that are cold or hostile toward the Jewish state.
Power had been criticized by some conservatives for seeming to suggest, in a 2002 interview with an academic, that the U.S. Army might be needed to police the Middle East conflict if either Israel or the Palestinians move toward genocide.
Power has disassociated herself many times from that comment. On Wednesday, she called it part of "a long, rambling and remarkably incoherent response to a hypothetical question that I should never have answered."
There was some pointed questioning about past statements - some made more than a decade ago - but Power was praised by many Republicans, as well as by Obama's fellow Democrats. Several senators said they looked forward to her U.N. tenure.
"I am confident that the same passion that she has for human rights, she has for this country," said Senator Saxby Chambliss, one of two Republican senators from Georgia who introduced Power, who grew up in the state.
Senator Bob Corker, the top Republican on the committee, said he expected Power would be "a significant and positive force at the United Nations," but was one of several senators who urged her to pursue reforms at the world body.
"All too often the U.N. acts as a place where bad actors deflect criticism," he said.
Some senators also pushed for more control of the U.N. budget, particularly the amount that Washington spends on peacekeeping, which Power promised to support.
Republican Senator Marco Rubio, a committee member, introduced legislation shortly before the hearing that would reduce U.S. funding to the United Nations unless there are major changes at the world body.

Graduates can benefit from international education too
August 16, 2011
Often, studying abroad is associated with high school and undergraduate programs, but graduate students are more than capable of working toward their Master's degrees in foreign countries as well. Pepperdine University offers international education programs for its undergrad and graduate students.
Evelyn Robertson was already working globally for Xerox when she enrolled in the university's Graduate School of Education and Psychology. According to the Los Angeles Times, the program allowed her to study and research in Beijing, Shanghai, Hong Kong and Guangzhou, and when she returned and completed her doctorate in education, Roberston was instantly promoted at her job.
Pepperdine also offers 12 eight-day graduate programs for international students, where they participate in online and classroom seminars in Mexico, Costa Rica, Chila, China, the Czech Republic, Canada and at Pepperdine in California.
"Studying abroad has made me a global-minded citizen by enabling me to analyze social issues from a comparative perspective," Richard Woo, a Pepperdine graduate student who studied in the Netherlands and Ghana, told the Los Angeles Times. "Writing my thesis helped me couple theory with practice."
Studying abroad also gives international business students the chance to network with other like-minded individuals. Once a program is complete, students can keep in touch with their foreign friends with international calling cards.
