Matt is aerodynamics specialist. He has designed
the bike to have at least 80% laminar flow.
The whole cabin is generally airtight.
In critical turbulent areas he has placed the
air vents for breathing and getting cooling air in and out (AFAIR he uses a turbine fan that is powered by the rear wheel).
This method doesnt disturb the airflow, instead
is sucks in the turbulent flow and makes it
laminar.
The breathing app. is AFAIK used to get clean dry air in for breathing, the rest is very
humid. Human body with a power of ~300 Watts
produces 1kW of heat/sweat vapour.
Not really: There are theoretical calculations
that show, with the given power of a human,
(~500-600 Watts for professional cyclists) and
the given minimum cross section, there should be a upper limit of about 90 miles/h / 144 km/h.
For further increase you have to stretch the rider or to use drugs.
The varna diablo is even now a very narrow shell.
There were top-view pictures were Sams shoulders
were wider than the streamline of the fixed bottom part of the fairing.
Matt had also problem to be at the event.
Sam started at Monday with his first record attempt. Matt had only Friday and Saturday.
Jason Queally showed that it's not only the
force and the money. He had by far the most expensive bike, but he is not adopted to drive
a 'bent (he trained for 4 months AFAIR)
And you believe, if there are freeley available,
strong, backdoor-free encryptions available
all over the internet, that terrorists will
use compromised thingies made in america?
I know that with encryption and steganography
even the NSA has problems to crack Mails.
On the other hand it was already reported that
echelon was used for industrial spionage against
european firms.
There is no gain, only the CIA and FBI win,
and the ones that can pay them.

Simply another example of you as a missionaire,
You KNOW(?) absolutely what is right and what is wrong, what is the truth and who should not live.
Islamic leaders were the first that respected other religions in their own country. But they experienced politics of force installment of the US (for Oil, jews in Israel whatsoever). The fundamentalists have support, since this happened. You don't respect their culture, now they don't respect yours. The difference is only, that you are the only superforce. They can't beat you in conventional warfare, but what about tuesday.
But I repeat it: You CAN'T win this. You will never kill every relative of the "terrorist" and they will come and kill you. This revenge thought is even in their religion.
They don't deserve honour in their society, if they don't revenge... I hope you see, where this leads you.
And at last: I'm never politically correct (a US Invention), but I see more than american news...

Sorry to post unpopular stuff:
I never commit violence in any form, so this terror shocked me too and made me sad.
But it is the bill for decades of american foreign politics! No doubt about that.
I know the story at least since the Shah in Iran . There was again and again an installment of
some leaders and the feeding of wars in that region by the US. There were open war attacks "in the name of Freedom". And a lot of moslems are just pissed now. And some of them meet now and fight in this sense.
Your opinion here was once again the missionairing of "freedom in the western sense".
But these people there have a culture and religion where this kind of freedom is worthless!
And no one will be able to change that. And the opinion that this culture is worthless because they are just all oppressed is just bullshit. They don't think so. They are different.
And for the case of revenge 2 points:
Remember the beginning of WW 1 and 2 and think about the yesterday NATO Meeting. A lot
of europeans were completely against Gulf War, but were not asked. Now they should march with you? For me: No way.
Nobody learned about Vietnam, Afghanistan etc. You can not kill a country. And for one bomb into a moslem village you have a hundred of personally motivated "freedom fighters" or "terrorists", spreading to the west, making fire. You don't need much money and stuff to make a suicide attack in a train or so. Look to Israel.
Don't try to make war, try to make good politics!
It is impossible to win this game with commiting once again just brute force. Even if this would be typical american.
A friend of mine is teaching CS Students at the
University. We discussed this question often before. This are our conclusions.
It is not a clean OO language to start with, Imagine ADD Arithmethocs with a stack:
Is this *readable*, writing in code what i want to do? In LISP this looks:
(push (+ (pop s) (pop s)) s)
In Smalltalk it's similar easy
Java has certain design flaws from the beginning:
primitive Types that doesn't fit anywhere
No higher order concepts to imply Casts
(Templates, Macros, etc.)
for the experiencend Programmer it doesn't offer
the possibility to get the programming language
that *meets* his problem domain. It doesn't scale with the programmers experience.
(overloaded operators, templates)
It combines awful things from different worlds:
it requires compiler runs before testing
it is as slow as an interpreter language
(even Perl can run faster)
it is picky about Types as a machine compiled language
It maybe offers some security and platform independence. but the latter is unimportant for learning to hack in CS.
I would start the beginning with something clean:
Smalltalk: clean, freely available OO, no Types, Casts, adopting the program to the compilers will
