  • FIA WTCC Promoter Signs 2-Year Deal with Monroe

    In a time when most motor racing series out there are losing sponsors due to the tough economic climate worldwide, the FIA World Touring Car Championship did just the opposite, managing to extend a fruitful partnership with suspension company Monroe.

    According to a press release on FIA WTCC’s official site, Monroe will become the series’ official suspension partner for the 2010 and 2011 seasons, returning to the series after one year of absence in 2009. Monroe previously teamed up… (read more)

  • Jersey Shore New Episode 6 Live Streaming

    On to Episode 6: We begin with the comical, and yet frightening, discovery that Ronnie and Mike have settled into a daily morning routine they describe as “gym, tan, laundry.” Vinny, who is neither tanned nor very muscled, is properly amused by this. “This is how we build the guidos,” he says. Mike proudly refers to the routine as “GTL.” He continues to not realize that he sounds like an ass.

    Guess what they decide to do later? They go to a bar! The slight wrinkle is that Mike’s younger sister Melissa has been invited. Vinny is intrigued. This will not end well. Non-wrinkle is thatRonnie and Sammi decide to head home together. Cut to shots of housemates tsk-tsking the young lovers for being such killjoys. But … wait! Banter in the taxi leads to disaster whenRonnie makes a crack about Sammi’s big toe. Apparently she is VERY sensitive about her feet. A chill descends over the taxi, and the couple fire f-bombs at each other. Frankly, the guys who handle the bleeping duties have had an easy night so far so good to get them some work.Oh, and she also dished on her reading habits, which are pretty much nonexistent—though she did make it all the way to the second page of Twilight recently, before getting bored because “there were no pictures.”

    And some people have the nerve to claim that there’s an education crisis in this country.

    We just want to know when the producers of Jeopardy! are going to tap her for a celebrity episode. Pretty-please?

  • Mercedes-Benz BlitzenBenz: A concept car powered by hybrid hydrogen engine

    Mercedes-Benz_BlitzenBenz_concept.jpg
    Concept cars never cease to fascinate me. And if the concept car bears the brand name Mercedes Benz it can only get better. Proving my point is the exhilarating concept Mercedes-Benz BlitzenBenz which has been designed by George Yoo, a designer at Mercedes-Benz Research and Development in Carlsbad, California. The designer created this concept car during his final year at the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena. The concept car has been designed as a futuristic racing vehicle to be used for testing and evaluating cutting edge technology. The hi-tech design of this car has been inspired by two sources: the original Blitzen-Benz from 1909 and Alex Erlandson whose work of creating “sculptures” from trees which were grown into certain shapes gave Yoo the idea of, “what if automotive parts were to be grown and tamed to hold certain shapes”.

    The exterior of this concept car has been designed to function as a base for the organic structure to sprout out from and form itself around. The individual wheel pods are held in place by this organic part. These can sense whenever the electric motors inside need to be cooled and the structure would then open up. The cool-blue color of the lighting system has been inspired by the bioluminescent capabilities of deep sea creatures.

    Powered by an advanced next-generation Hygenius hybrid hydrogen engine and four in-wheel electric motors, this concept vehicle promises to woo the speedsters of tomorrow. But that is not all, enhancing its visual beauty even further is the hydrogen storage tank located below the cockpit that shows the fuel level in a small window giving a visual sense of water being recycled throughout the vehicle.

    A beauty, this is one car we would love to see materialize soon.

  • Brittany Murphy’s Husband Suicidal

    Simon Monjack — the British producer who was married to late screen star Brittany Murphy — is so distraught over the actress’ sudden death last month, he’s considered taking his own life.

    The Clueless star, 32, died Dec. 20 after suffering a cardiac arrest at her Hollywood Hills home. She was laid to rest on Christmas Eve. Simon — who wed the actress in 2007 — is grief-stricken about Murphy’s passing and struggles to communicate without breaking down in tears, according to his mother.

    “Simon is exactly as you would expect someone to be who has just lost the woman he loved. Some days he wants to kill himself, and other days he seems to be coping better. He is distraught. I speak to him everyday, and he is often in tears,” Monjack’s mother Linda revealed in an interview with PEOPLE.com this week.

  • JVC busts out GZ-HM1 HD camcorder, lots of other video capturing devices

    JVC’s jumping in on the CES fun today with a whole slew of new camcorders, with the GZ-HM1 HD Everio leading the pack. This 1080p shooter offers up better-than-usual low light performance and camera-shake compensation. There’s a 10.62 megapixel CMOS sensor within, though we imagine the $1,199.95 price tag will stun those who aren’t looking for something fancy when it ships in March. The February-bound GZ-HM550 capture 1080p while offering up a 16x zoom, 32GB of internal flash memory, an SD / SDHC card slot, Bluetooth (for geotagging, naturally) and a $799.95 price tag. In case that guy is still too rich for your blood, JVC’s offering up no fewer than eight other guys that range from $229.95 to $649.95, all of which should be out by next month. Peek those sources below if you’re on the hunt for the nitty-gritty details.

    The beginning of the 2009 Formula One Championship presented the majority of the teams with a big dilemma. Apart from Brawn GP, Toyota and Williams, none have managed to find the existent loopholes in the FIA-imposed rules regarding rear diffusers and paid the price: no championship battle for 2009.

    From that point on, the championship big guns did two things. First, they started putting even more money into developing a similar device that would get them on top of the grid, and s… (read more)

  • Oklahoma City in Jan 2010

    It was a frigid, windy day..temps in the teens, wind ripping through the streets. Some snow still on the ground from the 14 inches we got two weeks ago. Couldn’t take being out in it longer than 30 minutes at a time..but I did manage to get some good pics, despite their generally not being many people out. OKC is really coming together, and there are some shots where you can see new urban districts coming together, others where you can see the potential for the future.


    This walkway is full of people enjoying their Starbucks in the summer


    Centennial Plaza in Lower Bricktown


    I hate Lower Bricktown, by the way


    I love Upper Bricktown, though

    A look down Flaming Lips Alley

    Bricktown Brewery.. an OKC institution


    People! They must be cold..


    New chocolate and espresso bar ala CoCo Flow


    This building was white..much better


    This could almost be a cool street..if it weren’t just a parking lot entrance


    A very rapidly expanding company..which being in Bricktown is important to their goal of recruiting young college grads.


    A great place to eat in Deep Deuce


    I love it when buildings with contemporary design merits build off of each other


    Not anywhere near Bricktown


    New Sage Gourmet Market & Deli..great place


    About ready for move-ins


    A mixed-use renovation


    There at the end of the street is the old Calvary Baptist Church..Martin Luther King once applied for a job as their pastor but was turned down because he was "too old"..a church in Birmingham instead hired him and the rest is history.


    Midtown OKC skyline


    Harvey Ave in downtown


    Former Federal Reserve bldg


    Methodist Church was severely damaged by bombing


    North Robinson Ave streetwall


    Lights along North Broadway in Automobile Alley

    A glimpse at some of the in-tact old buildings that exist in the no man’s land beyond Classen Blvd


    Skyline view from Classen..love it


    The old Fred Jones Auto Factory is going to become the new OCU Law School


    One of my favorite old buildings in OKC


    The Chicago style floor-to-ceiling minipaned windows are awesome..hope they keep those


    Did I mention I like this skyline view a lot?


    New home furnishings place


    Dramatic facade


    First floor–IAO Gallery, second floor-5 lofts


    Work it


    Actual storefronts along Walker Ave in the Arts District


    Hudson Ave in Arts District


    Downtown Library


    Arts District density..buildings with some serious potential


    Developer recently bought up this whole block


    City Hall + OKC Museum of Art


    City Hall


    Downtown Library + City Hall


    Devon Tower construction behind the library


    Park Ave in downtown


    Plaza Court bldg (old) + Leadership Square (new)


    The old Skirvin Hotel..now a Hilton


    Breathtaking
