When was the last time you found a gas cap interesting?
2007-12-29 23:47:00 So, Ford has those cool gas caps which are actually environmentally friendly... so I suppose that they could be considered interesting just because of that. But, what about the gas caps of the Mercedes Benz C300? That cap has a yellow ring (see picture after the jump) and tells potential gasoline-pumpers that they must either use premium or E85. That makes sense considering that the E85 fuel actually has a higher octane rating than the premium fuel does. Getting back to the Ford gas cap -- Since when did Ford recommend BP gasoline? Is there any reason for that other than a marketing deal? I doubt it, but I did think that it was interesting.[Source: Inside Line]

The last man standing may be McCain
2007-12-29 06:45:00 First, Giuliani damaged himself with his out-from-left-field and mean attack on Romney for hiring somebody who hired illegal aliens. Then Romney himself with his hangover-inducing religion speech and silly attack ads. Now Huckabee with this head-scratcher: "I am making the observation that we have more Pakistani illegals coming across our border than all other nationalities except those immediately south of the border," he said, repeating the assertion he made to his audience earlier. "And in light of what is happening in Pakistan it ought to give us pause as to why are so many illegals coming across these borders." Forget the numbers. In an international crisis, do you want to focus on 600 illegal aliens? Think about it. McCain's mistakes-two "reforms," comprehensive immigration and campaign finance are more distant memories.

The last moments in Benazir Bhutto's life in photos
2007-12-27 18:34:00 The last few minutes or moments that separated Benazir Bhutto from death captured in photos I still feel very sad and angry . Musharraf made a stupid statement calling the people to stay in their homes , no body is listening ,her supporters and the people are now in the streets all over Pakistan mostly in Karachi ,her home town. Nawaz Sherif went to the hospital and spoke briefly , I do not know I feel that there is mix of Sadness and fear in his voice , yes now there is no one to compete with except Masharf , in fact may be he is afraid because he knows that he will be next in the assassination list in order to clear the way in front of the dictator or may be he is afraid from how things will be in Pakistan after this terrible terrorist act. Musharraf for sure will use this act to his side , already this is the best thing he needs in order to impose again the Marshal laws or the emergency laws what ever they are called there.

Evidently, the boys at ShackNews have gotten over their abandonment issues (any pointers?) and taken a calendar-heavy look at the game's progress (or lack thereof, knowhutamean?) over the last decade of development.

The Last Shall Be First
2007-12-19 11:08:00 Often I like to cheer for the underdog. It is exciting when a person or team that doesn't stand a chance and is totally unknown begins to be noticed. When my wife and I were houseparents at a children's home there was an in-care boy who was unmannerly, disobedient and unproductive. His family had discarded him and he seemed to have no promise. Then something happened in his life to change everything. He settled down, studied hard, went on to college and after graduating became the regional director for a very well known Christian ministry.That boy experienced the same thing the unknown shepherds of Christmas experienced. The voice of the Lord came to them. The shepherds were the underdogs of society. They had a life that was looked down on by those around them. But God seeks the lowly to use in his work. When the angel appeared to them they listened. Immediately they focused their priorities on seeing and worshipping Jesus. After visiting him they shared the good news they had hea...

The last party for this year - what to wear
2007-12-17 22:03:00 Since holidays are coming fast, I bet many of you are already thinking what they?re going to wear. And if Christmas does not bind us to be formally dressed, that New Year?s party is a totally different story. I?ve picked up some formal tops and dresses for you, but whether you like them or not, or if they?re appropriate, really depends on how formal the party is going to be. I?ll start with the tops and in the next review I?ll show you the dresses. You may find the tops I?ve chosen to be very similar to each other, but I?ve tried to pick them in a way they?ll fit everybody no matter the body structure. They?ll look equally good on skinny to plump girls. Although quite similar, the tops actually differ from each other ? the two black (you can never go wrong with the black color when it comes to formal events) ones are the so popular tunic style and since we?ve talked so much about the tunic?s advantages I think I?m gonna skip that part now. Both models are really nice and as I ...

Epitaph (The Last Breath) - 2007
2007-12-15 21:26:00 O realizare interesantă din sfera thriller/horror, ce indică o reorientare a acestui gen înspre o îmbinare cu genul drama/romantic. Un curent nou, absolut necesar, prin care se încearcă, spre deosebire de tiparul clasic al filmelor de groază asiatice, o apropiere a spectatorului de protagonişti. Din acest unghi de vedere, ideea din “Bloody Reunion†începe să-şi găsească o explicaţie. Acolo remarcasem această tendinţă de distanţare oarecum de la accentul pus pe elementele care urmăresc îngrozirea spectatorului, către cultivarea unor sentimente de ataşament faţă de unele personaje care, în mod evident, vor supravieţui sau vor dispărea ultimele din scenă. Era nevoie de această schimbare, absenţa originalităţii riscând să transforme filmul horror asiatic într-unul cu nimic deosebit de cel hollywoodian actual.Epitaph (The Last Breath) - trailer"The Last Breath" este o înlănţuire de 3 poveşti terifiante, aparent fără legătură între ele.

Top 10 Out of Production Cars of the Last 30 Years
2007-12-13 14:12:00 I was browsing the germancarzone.com forum the other day and I came across an interesting topic. One of the members, "Merc1", decided to make a top 10 of his favorite cars in the past 30 years. His rules were fairly simple: Nothing current production or produced before 1977. Nothing about some great car from the past that no one here has ever driven or remembers when it was in its hey-day. I find it interesting to see a top 10 done by a car fanatic rather than a car magazine. Honestly, I always find these reviews and tops more interesting and unique, so therefore, today I'm giving you this cool list of cars. 1. Mercedes-Benz E500 (W124) - Quite possibly my favorite Mercedes-Benz of all time. True tank-like build quality, unique looks and some Porsche know-how. 2. Mercedes-Benz SL (R129) - The only other older Mercedes that compares to the W124 E-Class for me. Still beautiful today, this car was technical marvel back in 1989 when it was introduced with many wo...

ABC News Good to the Last Drop in its Dissing of Ron Paul
2007-12-13 01:27:00 Several people emailed me about this - but Jason Gordon was the first, early yesterday, and he gets the credit. (Two other early correspondents were Matt Caverhill, and Lee on MySpace.) The world at large - all of you, via your Internet connections - are the eyes and ears and witnesses of the mass media doing right and wrong. Our democracy depends upon you.This is not the worst thing that ABC has done to Ron Paul, his supporters, and thereby our democratic process - no closing down online boards in the middle of discussions, no leaving Ron Paul out of post-debate analyses, as ABC did earlier this year - but it's bad enough to warrant taking permanent note.As Matt Simon writes about in detail in the Huffington Post, ABC shunted John Stossel's interview with Ron Paul, intended for television broadcast, to its Internet site.Now, there's nothing wrong with the Internet, and ABC is of course entitled to decide where and how to publish its interviews ... but, who is ABC kidding here? ...

Arsenal & Sevilla in the last 16
2007-12-13 00:24:00 Arsenal 2-1 SteauaArsenal FC maintained their 100 per cent home record in this season's UEFA Champions League with a 2-1 victory against FC Steaua Bucure?ti but had to settle for second in Group H following Sevilla FC's victory at SK Slavia Praha. Goals from Abou Diaby and Niklas Bendtner sent the Gunners on their way in a one-sided first half before Dorel Zaharia replied for the rallying visitors, who finish their campaign with a solitary point. Fast startWith Arsenal having lost their first Premier League game of the season at Middlesbrough FC five days ago, and manager Arsène Wenger resting key players while he himself was confined to the stands due to a touchline ban, Steaua may have felt it was a good time to visit north London. Yet any feeling the hosts might be vulnerable without the likes of Kolo Touré and Emmanuel Adebayor quickly evaporated as the Gunners opened at breakneck pace. Diaby strikeTheo Walcott had already set up a half chance for the fit-again Diaby when anot...

Internazionale & Fenerbahçe in the last 16
2007-12-13 00:16:00 PSV 0-1 InternazionalePSV Eindhoven will have to content themselves with a berth in the UEFA Cup after they lost their final Group G match 1-0 at home to section winners FC Internazionale Milano.No way backThe Dutch champions had to beat the Nerazzurri and hope that Fenerbahçe SK dropped points at home to PFC CSKA Moskva to live on in the UEFA Champions League but neither result went their way. The dismissal of Ecuador midfielder Edison Méndez just before the half-hour mark hinted that it was not to be PSV's night, and a goal from Julio Cruz in the 64th minute confirmed it as Inter deservedly finished on a high. Brisk startWith PSV's need the greater, they attacked almost immediately and with two minutes gone Australian midfielder Jason Culina volleyed a Mike Zonneveld cross narrowly wide. The first real opening went Inter's way, though, as Santiago Solari was sent clean through by the impressive David Suazo but the legs of Heurelho Gomes kept out the Argentinian?s low shot.Ménde...
MAN UTD & ROMA in the last 16
2007-12-13 00:08:00 Roma 1-1 Man. UnitedManchester United FC and AS Roma ended the UEFA Champions League group stage with an honourable draw as Mancini struck on 71 minutes to cancel out Gerard Piqué's first-half header. Parity reignsIt was Piqué's second goal in as many games in Europe's élite club competition and he was hoping it would help his team to their sixth consecutive Group F success. However, Mancini's strike was true and a fair reflection of an entertaining, open match. United changesWith the top two places in the section already secured by these two clubs on Matchday 5, Sir Alex Ferguson made nine changes to the side that defeated Derby County FC on Saturday and his fledglings made a promising start. Their first shot on goal came within 60 seconds albeit from a United 'veteran' ? the 22-year-old Wayne Rooney firing over from the left edge of the penalty area after Taddei had conceded possession in midfield. Impressive startThe visitors began well. Piqué looked particularly assured at...
Lyon & Barcelona in the last 16
2007-12-12 23:59:00 Rangers 0-3 LyonGoals from Sidney Govou and a late second-half double from Karim Benzema gave Olympique Lyonnais a 3-0 victory against Rangers FC to ensure their passage to the UEFA Champions League last 16 at the Scottish side's expense. Benzema doubleLyon had lost their opening two Group E matches, including a 3-0 defeat at home to Rangers on Matchday 2, but were soon on their way to completing their remarkable turnaround when Govou struck on 16 minutes. Substitute Jean-Claude Darcheville had Rangers' best chance but after he hit the crossbar from point-blank range Benzema made sure of Lyon's victory with goals on 85 and 88 minutes as Rangers were forced to settle for the UEFA Cup place. Lyon pressThe visitors knew only a win would suffice and set their stall out accordingly, creating the first opening when Juninho Pernambucano picked out Govou's run behind Alan Hutton. With the goal at his mercy the French international shot into the side-netting. Juninho had been identified ...
