Greasestock 2008: The Cars of the Future
2008-05-20 19:56:00 When we talk about cars of the future, we often think of the new models that leading car manufacturers would come out with. Among them would include the green contributions of using green materials and applying alternative energy sources such as electricity for most. But the cars of the future are really the cars of the past. How did they become cars of the future? Well, through the fuel that they use, such as canola and vegetable oil. So in this case, it is about the fuel needed to run them and not the make. With oil rising as each day passes, the real culprit is how to deal with the continuing rising prices that seems to be going up forever. alternative energy sources, Auto, canola, car manufacturers, Cars, cars of the future, electricity, Fuel Efficient, Green News, Green Transportation, models, vegetable oil

2008-05-06 10:29:00 The powers that be (whoever they are) are planning to ban cars in the city centre of Dublin within a year. Get the public transport right and I am all for it.Let's hope they can get the extra buses on the road with having to go to the European Courts. They still haven't been able to roll out the new buses in Lucan because of legal action.What do we want.... Better public transport! When do we want it... Now?

Maybe its not the cars causing greenhouse? Alternate theory.
2008-02-22 20:13:00 Ever thunk this? Alternate global warning theory, simplified. I am an over-simplifier. I tend to look at things and automatically break them down to their most basic states of existence. I guess some would call me a minimalist, I don’t agree. I think it’s just a character facet, in all other ways I am flamboyant. I’ll give you an example. When other people see a doctor they see a person that is almost more than human. They see a person with a great deal of power, almost magical in description. When I see a doctor, I see a body mechanic, no more, no less. I am thankful that someone has dedicated their life to learning and practicing the ways and sciences of the human body, mind and spirit. In my mind (and whoever created the college PhD, doctorate ranks)that doctor is the equivalent of master of a field of study. People tend to confuse stuff like that, that’s why in religion people confuse the term perfect with its real meaning, learned. They say someone was perfect, flawle...

The Cars of Future
2008-02-07 16:51:00 More and more people are switching to hybrid cars. The reason for this change is the demand of petrol costs, which will be from day to day. This alone is a good enough reason for us to switch to hybrid cars. However, there is a greater reason for people taking this step, and this is the growing concern over the increase in air pollution. Since hybrid cars are on low oil consumption, they offer a workable solution for both problems.Hybrid Cars-Easy On Pocket and EnvironmentHybrid cars are fuel-efficient and have lower running costs compared to gasoline and small cars. Hybrid cars have better fuel efficiency, and you can take approximately 20 to 30 miles per gallon more than a conventional gasoline car. This leads to additional savings on your monthly fuel bills.Hybrid cars offer fuel consumption, because the engine of the hybrid car is a combination of a gasoline engine and regularly run an electric motor. It uses the best features of both and gives the hybrid cars a clear advantage ...

Are the cars on this Top Ten really the ones that turn men?s heads?
2007-12-30 02:58:00 Well, Evecars certainly be accused of thinking green with their latest Top Ten list, which they think marks the "Ten sexiest cars to turn men's heads." Following a poll of "a cross-section of men," the website thinks that a woman driving a Mercedes-Benz SL Roadster (pictured) would be the sexiest. Of the entire batch of ten cars (see it after the jump), only the Fiat 500 could qualify as a green car, and Evecars doesn't specify if it's the old or new version of the 500 (I'm guessing it's the old one). So, what (apparently) do men care about when it comes to women and cars and sex? It's not the CO2 emissions level. In a statement (also available after the jump, Evecars editor Alex Jenner-Fust said that, "The men we polled love the idea of a woman at the wheel of a high performance car, but only if she knows how to handle it. That's why the idea of a Land Rover Defender driven by the Queen is far more appealing than a modern Mercedes convertible being driven, or crashed, by the...

NHTSA says ?Let All the Cars Have Side Airbags?
2007-09-07 03:49:00 With a goal of making all cars be safer for their drivers, The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration made a new regulation that all vehicles manufacturers on the US car market must make side air bags as a standard safety features on all the cars they made. And the administration is hoping that the said regulation must be perfected before the year 2013, but the new regulation starts to be implemented on September 2009 to 2010. The cars made between these years must all have chest and abdomen protection and side curtain airbags as their standard safety feature. The government has been concern about the safety of each driver and it prompted them to put it on study since 2004. In the same year, the government has noted a huge amount of 650,000 people injured and in 2005, 9,200 died on side-impact accidents. They don?t need the Triumph Catalytic Converter to be safe so the administration decided to make all these airbags a standard part of each vehicle made. If not, the same 300...

NASCAR continues to change the cars into IROC-style with yet another penalt
2007-06-27 00:06:00 Well, today I have learned a couple of things from NASCAR, first being that Hendrick can't buy the #8 nor DEI can sell it because NASCAR released a statement saying that numbers can't be bought or sold and they owner the numbers. No surprise here, I wondering what NASCAR thought and something I thought too, basically Dale Jr fans can only hope that DEI is willing to let Hendrick Motorsports and Dale Jr. have the number in good faith or even maybe doing a trade of number for number. (Example: #25 for the #8 considering the #5 has so much history with Hendrick Motorsports.) The other thing to consider is reserving another number like the #81, #23 or something along those lines.The second being that earlier today NASCAR hand-down yet another COT penalty, this time for the #24 and #48, both drivers have been docked 100 points, the crew chiefs fined $100,000 and suspended for six races. Hendrick and Gordon both docked 100 owner points too. At least they are consitant in there penalties...

The Carson City Candidate Forum
2007-02-22 22:50:04 The Democratic candidate forum in Carson City, Nevada yesterday was overshadowed by a very public spat between the Clinton and Obama campaigns ignited by comments made by David Geffen in the New York Times about both Hillary and Bill Clinton. That wasn't good news for second-tier candidates hoping to capitalize on the event to get some free publicity for their campaigns. The Clinton-Obama spat was ignited by comments made by Geffen in a Maureen Dowd column saying both Hillary and Bill Clinton lie "with such ease, it's troubling." The Clinton campaign responded with calls for Obama to sever his ties with Geffen, who raised more than $1 million for Obama in a reception last week, and after that charges and countercharges flew regularly throughout the day. The topic came up during the candidate forum itself, and not just during Hillary's time on stage, illustrating how strongly the spat dominated yesterday's campaign news. In some of the news stories the only mention of second...
