Google rolls out new music search
Posted by
obxbiker (Admin from the ''OBX Beach'') at Today, 11:32 AM. One comment
According to Insights for Search, two of the top ten search queries made in the US since 2004 are music-related. Reflecting our obvious love of music, Google has teamed up with MySpace (which recently bought iLike), Lala, Pandora, imeem and Rhapsody to help us find the quick fix we need.
As you can see in the Gallery example, a search made for a track from Green Day's new album offers a few suggestions at the top of the results page. Clicking on the play button next to the title brings up an audio player where short track previews are offered as well as details on how to buy the track and where to go to get more information.
Discovering new music is also offered courtesy of the links underneath the search results. Choosing to listen to the track on Pandora, imeem or Rhapsody means that you'll also be offered similar audio delights from other artists.
Google claims that its new search is intuitive enough to allow searches by artist, song title or lyric. However, the new search algorithms are only being added to Google's search service in the U.S. initially, and the company is remaining typically tight-lipped about when the rest of world can benefit. More information on the feature is available at a special page created by Google.
- The verdict
When rumors first started circulating about what Google was going to do with a new music service I had high expectations. Now it's arrived I have to say that I am a little disappointed. I had hoped for so much more, at the very least something a little less, well, ordinary.
Accepting it for what it is though, maybe it would be more useful to me personally if Google had partnered with the likes of Amazon, Play, We7, Deezer, Last.fm or Spotify along with the others.
I would have also liked to see links to artist websites amongst the results offered at the top of the page. And would it have been too much of a burden for someone to offer a range of audio download formats to choose from? Maybe such things will come when the service is opened up to non-US domains. I hope so.

Indian Motorcycle feature to be filmed by ABC News
Good Morning America’s Bill Weir will ride a 2010 Indian Chief as he joins Indian Motorcycle on a trip through the North Carolina mountains to Deal’s Gap, the famed “Tail of the Dragon” hailed by many as the best motorcycling road in the USA. Motorcycle historian Dale Walksler will ride a vintage 1944 Indian Chief and provide expert commentary on American motorcycling history.
Good Morning America is ABC’s morning news and talk show produced live from Time Square in New York City. On the air since 1975, the Good Morning America is among the top viewed shows in morning television, and has won several Emmy awards.
Good Morning America’s weekend anchor, Bill Weir is an Emmy-winning reporter who travels the world to uncover breaking news and global trends. He was among the first reporters on the scene during Hurricane Katrina, and was the lead reporter in ABC's coverage of the war in Iraq. Weir's domestic reporting tends to focus on innovative ways to solve many of America's biggest problems.
As America's first motorcycle company, Indian Motorcycle began producing motorcycles in 1901, and paved the way early on for many other American motorcycle manufacturers to flourish during the earliest part of the 20th century. Once our country's largest motorcycle producer, the Indian Motorcycle Company became defunct shortly after World War II. The iconic brand resumed production in 2008 and has since released seven models including the 2010 Chief Dark Horse and 2010 Limited Edition Chief Bomber.

H-D honoring U.S. military in November

H-D honoring U.S. military in NovemberSpecial contest for active and retired military personnel

Harley-Davidson has declared November to be “Military Appreciation Month” to honor the service of active and retired U.S. military personnel.
The Motor Company is partnering with Maxim magazine to run a contest for current and former U.S. military personnel. The grand prize is a Harley-Davidson motorcycle of the winner’s choice, personally delivered by supermodel Marissa Miller. The “Harley Salutes the Military Contest” asks veterans and active service men and women five multiple choice questions and a fill-in-the-blank question asking “what has been your proudest moment when serving your country?”
Additional prizes include free Rider’s Edge motorcycle training and tickets for four to attend an Ultimate Fighting Championship event, Jan. 2, 2010 in Las Vegas.
Military personnel can enter the contest by visiting:
www.harley-davidson.com/thankyou.
“At Harley-Davidson, we’re all about freedom, but we can’t forget that freedom comes at a price,” says Dino Bernacchi, Harley-Davidson's director of Advertising and Promotions. “It’s humbling to think of the countless sacrifices these brave men and women – and their families – have made to keep our country free, so the Harley-Davidson family is honored to partner with Marisa to help salute military personnel this month.”
Marissa Miller appears in a series of electronic postcards for military personnel.

Harley-Davidson has also created a series of 14 electronic postcards featuring motorcycles and Miller for people to send to members of the military. The postcards, also available at http://www.harley-davidson.com/thankyou, feature Miller dressed in uniforms of all five branches of the U.S. military in the style of World War II-era posters.
“I’m honored to help the Motor Company salute the brave men and women who keep our country free,” says Miller. “My grandfather is a veteran, and I’ve had the unique opportunity to meet several service men and women during recent USO tours, so the military holds a special place in my heart. I hope other Americans will join me and Harley-Davidson in saluting these real life heroes during the month of November.”
The Harley-Davidson Museum will also offer free admission to all military personnel and their families Nov. 7-11 for “Salute to Military” weekend. The St. John’s Northwestern Military Academy and the Disabled American Veterans Mobile Services Office unit are scheduled for a special performance.
Harley-Davidson has a history of military support going back to 1916 when American troops rode Harleys in the Mexican Expedition. In 1917, nearly one-third of all Harley-Davidson motorcycles produced were commissioned by the U.S. military for the First World War. Up to 20,000 Harley-Davidson motorcycles were used by the U.S. Army in WWI including one used by Corporal Roy Holtz as the first American to enter Germany after the signing of Armistice.
In WWII, Harley-Davidson provided nearly 90,000 WLA motorcycles to the military.

In present times, Harley-Davidson supports active and retired military personnel through the Harley’s Heroes Tour. Funded by a million dollars of funding from the Harley-Davidson Foundation, the Heroes Tour provides counseling to injured veterans in the DAV’s Mobile Service Office program.
“The Motor Company maintains a strong relationship with the military through the Harley-Davidson family of customers, dealers and employees,” says Bernacchi. “In fact, 14 percent of Harley-Davidson employees and 30 percent of our customers are either active or retired U.S. military personnel.”

When Motorcycle USA arrived at Asheville, North Carolina to sample the 2010 Scooter lineup from Kymco, we had no idea how robust the Tawian manufacturer’s scooter line actually was. Ranging from 500cc maxiscooters to 50cc 4-strokes, with plenty of mid-displacement offerings on hand, Kymco has added four new models this year: the Downtown 300i, Like 200i, Like 50 and Super 8 50 2T.

Australia TAC Safety Videos (2x)
The Australian TAC (Transport Accident Commission) in the state of Victoria , are very busy in terms of ensuring that all motorcycle riders understand the need for safety. There's a self-serving interest in it, obviously, since TAC are the folks who pay the treatment of people injured in a road accident. But nevertheless, promoting road safety is a good thing.
TAC have produce several great, and some good, safety TV ads shown in Australia. Here are the two most recent ones. The first one is excellent, since when you watch it, you'll gulp, knowing that this has happened once or twice to you... or almost.
TAC Motorcycle Safety Ad 2009 (1 minute 2 seconds)
TAC Motorcycle Safety Ad 2007 (1 minute)
This one is more "wishful thinking" than reality. At what stage can a cage driver think like a motorcycle rider?

Top 10 Motorcycles in the Movies

Motorcycles feature in plenty of films, but only a few are remembered as classics by bike lovers and enthusiasts. We take a look at what we think are the coolest and most memorable motorcycles in the movies.

Motorcycles feature in plenty of films, but only a few are remembered as classics by bike lovers and enthusiasts. We take a look at what we think are the coolest and most memorable motorcycles in the movies.
- #10. Wild Hogs – Harley Davidson
Wild Hogs is a feel good family movie. Four middle aged friends, who only ride their Harley Davidsons at the weekend, take a cross country trip to discover what it feels like to be a “real” biker. The cast includes John Travolta, Tim Allen, Martin Lawrence and William H Macey on Harley Davidson bikes. Harley Davidsons featured in this movie include a XL1200C Sportster Custom, FXSTS Springer Softail, Black Fatboy and a Screaming Eagle Fatboy. - #9. Purple Rain - HONDA 400A
Prince played “The Kid” in the 1984 classic Purple Rain. He has trouble at home, trouble in the band - the movie is 80’s from beginning to end. Prince was already an experienced rider at the time of filming and rode the Honda Motorbike
alongside the filming truck himself, unlike a lot of movies where the actor is filmed sitting on a motorbike on the back of a trailer. - #8. Ghost Rider – Custom Built Chopper
Marvel comic character Johnny Blaze is played by Nicolas Cage in the 2007 film Ghost Rider. Blaze is a motorcycle stuntman who transforms into a demon-like Ghost Rider. Grace, Blaze’s bike in this film, is a custom made chopper designed as a modern take on Peter Fonda’s in Easy Rider. Interestingly, Peter Fonda plays the baddie Mephistopheles in Ghost Rider. - #7. The World’s Fastest Indian – Indian Scout
Starring Anthony Hopkins, The World’s Fastest Indian is the true story of a speed bike racer from New Zealand, Burt Munro. Munro set an under 1000cc world record in 1967 on an Indian brand motorcycle that he mechanically modified and covered with an aerodynamic shell. Amazingly, at the time of the world record the Indian motorbike was 47 years old and Monroe himself was 68! More amazingly, the record still stands today! Film worthy material indeed. - #6. The Motorcycle Diaries – 500cc Norton
The Motorcycle Diaries is based on the real journey of young Argentinean Ernesto ‘Che’ Guevara. Before becoming a guerrilla leader he travelled across South America for more than 500 miles with his friend Alberto Granado. Both ride together on a 500cc single cylinder Norton Motorcycle which they name La Poderosa - “The Mighty One”. This film is based on the diaries kept by the two friends on their epic journey. - #5. Top Gun - Kawasaki GPZ750R
Tom Cruise plays Maverick, a competitive naval school recruit who pilots an F14 fighter jet. In the movie Cruise rode a Kawasaki GPZ750R. Cruise had not ridden a motorbike before he filmed the movie and learnt to ride in the parking lot of a Californian bike shop. Despite the informal motorcycle training, the experience turned into a passion for Cruise and he has never looked back! - #4.Terminator 2 – Harley Davidson Fatboy
Terminator 1 had Sarah Connor being chased on a Honda scooter with the Terminator chasing her on a Honda 750. This chase scene left audiences wanting more, so in 1991’s Terminator 2 Arnie rode a Harley Davidson Fatboy. It all started with the line “I need your clothes, boots and your motorcycle”. Arnold, now Governor of California, remains to this day an avid motorcycle enthusiast and owns a range of bikes. - #3. Easy Rider – Harley Davidson
Lots of great stars, lots of great bikes, 1969’s Easy Rider is a cult classic and spawned the hit “Born to Be Wild”. A motorcycle buddy film featuring names such as Nicholson, Fonda, Hopper, the bikes featured in the film were Harley Davidson Hydraglide models from 1949, 1950 and 1952. This film makes you want to get on a Chopper and head out to the unknown with your friends. - #2. Mission Impossible 2 – Triumph
Mission Impossible 2 features two Triumph Motorcycles. The first, ridden by Ethan Hunt played by Tom Cruise, is a Triumph Speed Triple. The second is a Triumph Daytona, ridden by Dougray Scott as Sean Ambrose . The big motorcycle battle is action packed in a way that only director John Woo could pull off. This movie has some of the best motorcycle stunt scenes ever. - #1. The Great Escape - TT Special 650 Triumph
The Great Escape has arguably the greatest motorcycle scenes of all time. Steve McQueen himself had a lot of input into the motorcycle scenes in the 1963 movie and performed all of his own stunts, apart from the jump across the barbed wire fence. McQueen in the famous final scene was riding a TT Special 650 Triumph which had a makeover to look like a wartime BMW. The Great Escape – inspiring people to get on a motorbike for the last 40 years.

The UKP20,000 TTX01 - 86 BHP, Electric 2WD Motorcycle

It’s the first electric superbike and though its range is considerably less than the first modern four-stroke superbike, the 1969 Honda CB750, its top speed of 125 mph (200 km/h) is almost identical.
Built to demonstrate the potential of electric sports motorcycles for the first emissions-free Grand Prix, the initial prototype is based on a Suzuki GSX750 frame and running gear and runs two 43 bhp Agni Lynch Electric motors arranged in line with the frame. Together, the motors produce 125 Newton Metres of torque and both have been modified to withstand high RPM using Kevlar-reinforced armatures. The vision is to create a lightweight, carbon fiber framed 2WD TTX02 with "hot swappable", 20 kilowatt hour battery packs, regenerative braking and a production run of 50 machines in 2010 with a target price of UKP20,000.
Though capable of 200 km/h with longer gearing, in the form .......
