that is mostly about alternatives to the status quo but what might be real alternatives to the points that the working toward the american dream the next they were just trying to survive it's time for americans and lawmakers in washington to wake up and start talking about the real causes a problem. please. put it on your arm and a lot of these policies just like you know. pleasure to have you with us here on our t.v. today i roll researcher.

on marriage in the financial world. to cease to moments cannot stop exuberance only takes no demand to credit not going to get any benefit in life there. hello and welcome to technology updates the world cup's over but if you think you've seen the end of countries going head to head in the heats think again because we can check out the national teams looking for racing glory in barcelona. but first glance the catalonian capital seems more touristy than tacky but it looks can be deceiving already home to the world's largest mobile tech conference in two thousand and thirteen barcelona became the birthplace of the smarts moto challenge

where it seems of engineering students from around europe came to the city to pitch the electric bikes against each other over four grueling days and last year participants were left eating the dust from bush's make one. name just to make a ons famous make one fighter the bike was designed and built by the moscow state university of mechanical engineering also known as mommy and the university's jungians are very to use the theory from the classroom to cut their teeth out on the track. back in two thousand and ten take up sneak levy followed another team of students speedsters from the uni competing in the formula student competition in germany held in the country's historic hockenheim bring seventy five teams from eighteen countries and bowled into town with a single seat for all races to take part in the event. although there was no champagne shower for the russian team they did reach the checkered flag despite the

conditions which is more than can be said for many of the other teams but motor sports hasn't been unaffected by the shift towards electric power off the truck. load of there's demand for electric transport in your. well parking spaces scarce fuel is expensive and the public is concerned about the environment. as participants in this race we want to support that philosophy. or a similar trend in russia if those are the people become more aware of environmental issues so that everyone realizes that we only have one planet and we have to look after it. builtin nine hundred ninety one. has played host to some of the world's most prestigious racing events and it's sixteen turns over four point five klicks provide a formidable challenge for cars and bikes to light. this month the track was

a hive of activity is big name teams tweaks and superbikes ready for the twenty of twenty four hour enjoying strace. just a stone's throw away in pits forty seven the students are working just as hard to bring their bikes up to scratch for tomorrow's inspection. this year seven teams from spain poland ecuador and russia each looking for a place on the podium. hoping to repeat last year's victory and in the face of stiffer competition the mummy students have come back with a completely new set of wheels they've dropped the electric bicycle design if they've ever fully fledged enduro style motorbike we don't need the same headlights as last year's winner this bike has more in common with his complicity in engine cousins next door. money is journey to barcelona started the best part of a year ago it's one month to put the team together which is made up of specialists

in different fields but all sharing the same thirst for victory then followed four arduous months of meticulously planning and modeling each note and well. once the team had settled on the final tech specs it was time to stop pencil pushing and gets their house. software helps the students measure twice and. having fully modeled in stress tests of their frame and forks virtually knew exactly what to build and how it's a handle on the day. with only a limited budget the guys had to be crafty about which parts to buy in and which ones to make in house. they opted for steel chips for the frames offering the optimal tradeoff between strength and weight and cost. but like anything the finished product is only as good as its components parts. we started exploring new opportunities all agree that it's time we should start

using composite materials to produce structural elements not only structural elements but also for example a lighter battery box made of composite materials and so on. should be made from high tech materials and carbon fiber offers the perfect way to shore up the structure with precious pounds. glistening black strands on an empty. seat the trick is to achieve the right balance between fibers and to make sure the saddle sits just right it seems clear the use of compensates means that their electric motorcycle weighs just the same as last year's eve by. up to nine months of blood sweat and tears all that remained for the mummy team to do was to put the finishing touches on their entry this year the rules of the smart . enough to use motorbike wheels and that he should be big enough for two people in

addition to the standard motor control given to each team as well as making it even more difficult to keep weight down the team has been working twice as hard this year and plans to turn up with a sleeve with only a couple of weeks to go before. the bikes money on time was no small task. time to find out if the entries perform as well in the truck as they do on paper. back in the region comes tensions building as the first round of scrutineer in approaches the team is told through the night in a race against time to get their bikes ready. all the teams have been briefed and then now in his hardest were preparing their bikes for thought couple of days ahead this year the guys like me have two entries more casual make through neutron and the feisty to proton both bikes have their strengths and even these guys don't know which will perform better in the competition the proton and neutron have the same brake system wheels motor battery and onboard controller but that's about where the similarities end weighing in it's forty three kilos and with

a wheel base of one meter thirty three centimeters the only slightly heavier and longer than his teammate it's rigid frame and swing arm built for speed and require a skilled rider while the neutron slightly springy frame makes it more of an easy rider the protons titanium front forks are lighter and can be tuned much more finely than the neutrons it's hard to smooth the ride seamlessly shift from one position to another whereas the neutron sacrifice is freedom of movement for comfort. it's may seem like the calm before the storm but before these things allow this truck the bikes must be scrutinized for compliance with the competition rules and that's just the first hurdle that also a modern acceleration enjoyments handling and even their business plan all of which will go towards their final score. after the ebonics with tested for water tightness it was time to progress on to the next stage which took place on the dynamic testing grounds in the center of the circuit to cancel your truck is it

seems have to prove that their rides a safe in the three under five meets the front and back brake tests in the mix to produce on breeze test but the neutral was hit by a spot of engine trouble having made it to the test area under its own steam at the crucial moments the electric motor refused to spark a. the life. you have been i thought the failures mean you could miss a whole day of the competition not as a result you could miss out on a few tests and lose points but it's never straightforward you can never be sure what will happen. today some of the teams are going to try and turn around yes these failures into a success in a last ditch attempt to get through to the next round. to last night's drama and hours of head scratching the team money to locate and fix the faulty connection that vending machine. with both bikes raring to go it's time for the acceleration test his speed is king as it seems takes in turns to open up the struts on the fifty meter straight drag each entry has four attempts at the best time both with

and without a passenger and just like last year proton let everyone else down to the one in barcelona all come from all over europe to throw off their and make the noise. broken by mom or dad and were to have its own offspring all of that will have. the overall is a cult classic its retro design and distinctive side cars have stood the test of time looking just as good today as they did when they first hit the roads over seventy years ago the motor bike success just goes to show that old school will never go out of fashion and the bike is firmly cemented this nation of markets such as the motor bikes appeal that the company ships well over ninety percent of its bikes abroad but don't just take my word for it. brad pitts was not immune to the motorbikes charm and treated himself tories three years ago you immigrate and tumblr founder david karp can also be listed among the aliases with

an oral in that carriage. back on home turf or should i say tomah the overall is the chart of choice of the night schools pack leader alexander. also known as the surgeon the gang even worked. the manufacturer of the ural back in the nine hundred ninety s. to create the old. was bitterly we have trained up a whole generation of brilliant amateur engineers who have worked on this machine they've introduced all sorts of innovations to it from minor improvements to groundbreaking changes each of them would first try out their innovations themselves and then share them with their friends. pretty much all the roles on the road today were produced in a town of in the urals by the one nine hundred seventy s. the factory which was built around an old brewery had brought us more than seven hundred thousand of the three wheelers whose affordability made them

a popular alternative to the car and strong demand for the well outside of russia mentioned the fight to hit its peak production of one hundred thirty thousand bikes per year around this time as well with the trikes been shipped out to north and central africa europe and even as far as australia but to find out more about the origins of the overall we have to go even further back in time. the history of the or i'll become right here in moscow more than seventy years ago on the same year that germany invaded feel duty and shuttering the unsee aggression pact between the two countries the soviet union was forced to bump up production of great plains the town's old motorbike scallop defends him from relaying messages before the start of the war the first prototype for all and seventy two had already been made although it was heavier than his. predecessors it was also faster more powerful and more

reliable and if you look closely we all followed suit as a family resemblance to the german b.m.w. awesome c one best part of the lend lease program during world war two the u.s. supplied the soviet union with over twenty six thousand hollies and seven thousand five hundred indians but russia need to be so great didn't. by nine hundred forty five the soviet union had produced almost ten thousand and seventy two which were used in the war effort before kicking down again into the civilian population. seventy two was an exact copy of the b.m.w. us seventy one but the history of how this happened isn't clear one version of events suggests that germany gave russia a license to produce the os seven c one as part of a resource and technology exchange treaty the alternative is a bit small cloak and dagger in this one five bemis was secretly acquired by go between sweden and smuggled back into the country where they reverse engineered by soviet specialists it's unlikely that evidence supporting either version still

exists so you'll have to make up your own mind as to which one you prefer. today and having avoided any copyrights lawsuits the fighting in it beats is still standing it's currently produces around twelve hundred units per year for diehard fans of the legendary bike around the world this year's lineup boasts six models including the m seventy chippie to the original that kickstarted the brand but no matter which one you choose they all have one thing in common. a motor bike is unique since it is currently the only bike in the world to come complete with a side car. and not just any old side car this is the polar side car is no power driven which enables the motor bike to run on the open road as well as cross-country even overrode the. interest inside cost effectively turns the soviet steed into a full two wheel drive vehicle and behind its retro facade the steel side car can

be fitted with modern comforts including a little track spare tire and plug sockets or even an ammo kind of stuff for the more adventurous types. the company also ships in components from specially supplies in countries such as germany japan austria and. it's silly it's fact she produces six bikes a day and has plans to boost production to meet demand from the new markets in new zealand china and the philippines the company's director and chief engineer both have or else and insist on testing out the latest innovations on their own bikes research different areas when developing or powered side cars are used a differential drive like the kind they use in cars but inexperienced drivers face difficulties when steering the motorbike due to differential drive specific design features that's why we need the differential drive switchable so you can turn it on if you approach an obstacle and then turn it off once you've passed it will continue to explore this area in order to attract new customers by motorbike with

the new inside car wheel is a rare thing. the rolls versatility in carrots i mean it's seen action everywhere from the front line to the streets of hollywood the bikes which has just been over seventy gays in the making and with the fact she beats constantly updating and improving its range the history of the oral is far from over. that's the end of the first we'll see from all three realtek after the break. it looks like. we're going to go digital the price is the only industry specifically mentioned in the constitution and. that's because a free and open process is critical to our democracy which albus. in

fact the single biggest threat facing our nation today is the corporate takeover of our government and across several we've been a hydrogen ally handful of transnational corporations that will profit by destroying what our founding fathers once built up my job market and on this show we reveal the big picture of what's actually going on in the world we go beyond identifying the problem trying to fix rational debate and a real discussion critical issues facing america to find a job ready to join the movement then walk in the big picture. please.

cross talk rules in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want. welcome bot as you can see the simple buy insurance race is now well underway so let's find out how the students are getting on with the bikes in the security council. race to around twenty six thousand

spectators who sets up count for the long haul ahead. on the truck money machine would being pushed to the limits in the opening hours of the race. anything's possible in such a longer bend on the withdrawal of the leading to insurance team in the early hours of the morning left a wave wide open for the french team halmos was to take the trophy covering an impressive seven hundred twenty nine blocks. behind the pits life music to a slower pace with teams in their crews enjoying some well deserved downtime. we are now i think always in the superbike insurance race but i'm afraid that i can't enjoy listening to the track it's any longer locally there's a greener on silent alternative taking place right now. in the smallest moto insurance race the teams must complete twenty laps of the course

covering ten point five kilometers. they should do ten laps solo and ten with a passenger and swap drivers halfway through the goal here is consistency not speed so the time difference between the two drivers has to be as small as possible probably to stop teams from getting one of the professionals next door to three fold them. as you can see bikes and scooters are in demand did moscow doesn't any petrol powered machine the environment is always a concern over there creates a nation of markets between you. harville voice was bush and his bike champion in two thousand and thirteen and has played an active part in promoting the sporting russia nothing beats the top of his game he's now looking for new ways to get his kicks pavel's found a new toy to play with but don't be fooled by. this mighty electric mini can hold its own it gets much larger petrol bikes as possible found out when he took it to the races. it's much easier to steer this motorbike because it's

very light much lighter than bikes that run on petrol it's a big advantage we tried it out in the second stage of the russian pit by championship i pulled away from my posts right from the start and then completed the first lap faster than anyone else i deliberately left the track after that because it was just a demonstration that i wanted to show people how powerful a small motor bike can be accelerate six dreamy fast and i don't think a petrol engine will ever be able to do anything like that it also only has one gear well with petrol motorbikes you need to change gear in every split second it takes you to change gear is important in a race so this gives you maximum possible acceleration it's amazing really one of a kind of that. is made in moscow by dell or the secrets behind its killer characteristics is all in the motor which despite just four point eight kilograms generates nine kilowatts of power which is then fed directly to the wheel

the company also builds the frame the battery packs controller and software to go with it. yes but other engines that are currently on the market surprised me because they were also heavy webbing but not that powerful. prototypes. from the start we've made up our mind to use air cooling down which requires much fewer parts inside the engine but there's a fairly powerful air currents will be the transfer of heat from the components to the. naturally by the wind. it's upwards moreover the efficiency of our engine is about ninety percent. generates much less heat anyway. however the electric bike house generated a lot of buzz so much so that della has already designed three other models including two full sized motocross bikes and an urban version that's at the prototype stage. the first batch of one hundred days to this winter and has already

been snapped up with a full sized urban model having a predicted range of two hundred kilometers on a single charge which costs between thirty five and seventy cents it's easy to see why. it's no good having all these top specs if the bike doesn't look the parts so della got in touch with moscow based industrial design company for helping found the design is true of countless concepts for a motor bike before they eventually agreed on the final version. it doesn't weigh a gram more than it has to be simply removed all the known load being parts and. there's also our original design which allows us to have high engine capacity and with small size and most importantly lightweight long. even in this day

and age computer models sometimes onsen not fully to evaluate the design. so also pieces industrial plus to seem to bring the drawings to life and gets the impression of the final product. after hours of sticking and pressing. spike is beginning to take shape. has been riding bikes since he was a child and used his extensive experience to make sure that bike is practical as well as pretty the first rendering was a bit too wide a bulky butt. a few points is the right balance had been reached. the bikes on the block including the ciro f.x. from california and also just k.t. and free ride. the top spec f.x. has a one hundred thirty three kilometer range weighs one hundred twenty kilos and costs twelve thousand dollars to take a c.m. only of the hundreds a much smaller budget capacity given it's a runtime of between twenty to ninety minutes and costs thirteen thousand five

hundred dollars when the dell is finished it's expected to be faster and less than half the price. the inevitable rise in oil prices is only going to spot bounces in energy storage technology making it both more efficient under fordable and most the . broken ebooks are going to go faster and further than ever before. it's the final day of the smarts moto competition right here in the hearts of boss alone and there's not much between the teams they still everything to go for in this final handling test. in this closing event of the smarts moto challenge it seems have to show off the maneuverability of the machines by weaving in and out of the cones just like in the insurance test consistency is key and it seems a penalize for every kohen a hit or miss. meanwhile the church took the opportunity to have a closer look at the innovative solutions used in the team's bikes during the design appraisal.

the money team seemed to be doing pretty well in the dynamic tests and some was fastest when pits and directly against all that he bikes. always go for working. night by night and day by day maybe they forget. something along the day they had to bury a body of. challenge to see. thousand and fourteen is now and. the final totals all the students can do is sit and wait. this year's winners with poland in ecuador with the people's friendship university of russia picking up a special prize for bravery. didn't receive anything so we caught up with emilio unpublished to find out what's hot and. you're doing

it in more school i was on. its design but well. he made me and see how do you like. it is not a model white or examine the. rules just say you have to create a small motor and i think they don't specify whether it should be a scooter or a full size motorbike only say it has to be a smart one and i would thought of. the new. technology because i'm sure the big rosie. if what. we're here at the moment but there are also technical tests of which we won every one and yet we still fail to qualify that's what is a complete mystery to us. well it wasn't meant to be this year puts life goes on the money students may not pass a loan or but they hop on

a deal with their sponsored universal motors they could see their bikes ride into mass production series. mushroom boats we like large cars and large motor bikes that's why we've used the motorcycle riding position and design is the basis for our a bike concept. these bikes will go into mass production thing and poor through for the growth of the bike parts will be produced according to our designs but we did receive them i mean affection facility is go into symbol the bikes. the specific asians or end customers. so who knows perhaps the streets of moscow will be buzzing with the sound of the protons and neutrons electric motors some time soon. on like this one show the story of the bike is far from over and it looks like it's a bright electrocute so we'll see you next month until then enjoy the right.

i know c.n.n. the m s n b c news have taken some slightly but the fact is i admire their commitment to cover all sides of the story just in case one of them happens to be accurate. that was funny but it's close and for the truth and might think. it's because one whole attention and the mainstream media work side by side the joke is actually on we're. going to have. at our teen years we have a different thread. because the news of the world just is not this funny i'm not laughing dammit i'm not i. have.

you guys sent to the jokes well handled in the sense that i'm.

the for. the job the prize is the only industry specifically mention in the constitution and so far that's because a free and open prize is critical to our democracy schreck all books. that are going on i'm sorry and on this show we reveal the picture of what's actually going to be a model to go beyond identifying a problem or trying to fix rational debate in a real discussion critical issues facing america a biography i'm ready to join the movement then welcome aboard.
