The 42 mpg Chevy Cruze

The American Made Car You've Always Wanted Has Arrived!!

 

The Chevrolet Cruze is no doubt one of the best designs to have come out of the assembly line of General Motors (GM) and the result is beginning to manifest across the world

 

The Cruze is giving the Japanese car makers every reason to worry especially here in America where the Cruze has powered to top of the passenger car sales charts.

 

The Cruze, cruised past perennial chart-toppers like the Toyota Camry and Honda Civic and may likely remain there for a long time. This is what the American models have not been able to do for many years and the Cruze seems to have started a revolution in the passenger car segment.

 

“Chevrolet Cruze continues to redefine the compact segment, offering class-leading standard safety features, upscale amenities – as well as hybrid-like fuel economy without the price,” said Mark Santilli, Marketing Manager at Jeff Gordon Chevrolet. “The Cruze Eco is in a league of its own and will challenge perceptions of the efficiency available in a more affordable non-hybrid.”

 

Jeff Gordon Chevrolet recently made special arrangements for customers to color & option available 2012 Chevrolet Cruze currently in production.

 

Don't miss the opportunity to color and option your very own 2012 Chevy Cruze. Your vehicle will come straight from the Lordstown, Ohio factory to the showroom of our 15 acre Award Winning Chevrolet Dealership in Wilmington North Carolina.

On the Selly Oak Bypass - Aston Webb Boulevard.

 

I was wondering how you get onto the Worcester & Birmingham Canal in Selly Oak, as there is no canalside walk in this area.

 

The only access I know of is in Bournville (by the station) or Somerset Road (in Edgbaston). Which means a potential long walk between those two points without bridges to leave at.

I used to stay in one of the Manchester Victoria Hall student accommodation in 2002-03 (the one closest to the MMU and Manchester University).

 

Think there is already two Victoria Hall's in Selly Oak. So this would be the third one.

An inspiring collection of political signs is on display at ‘Signs of Hope’, a special exhibit at Art Works Downtown in San Rafael. The show runs from April 14th through April 29th, with an opening celebration on April 14th.

 

This popular art show is curated by artist Angelique Benicio and community leader Thomas Roedoc, with support from Art Works Downtown and the Mill Valley Community Action Network (MVCAN). They picked some really creative signs used for civil activism during 2016-2017, representing a wide range of views. The show included our Bamboodu Theater, a puppet stage featuring Lady Liberty and Mr. Trump, with animated characters, news ticker and music.

The Red Kite (Milvus milvus) is a medium-large bird of prey in the family Accipitridae, which also includes many other diurnal raptors such as eagles, buzzards, and harriers. The species is currently endemic to the Western Palearctic region in Europe and northwest Africa, though formerly also occurred just outside in northern Iran. It is resident in the milder parts of its range in western Europe and northwest Africa, but birds from northeastern and central Europe winter further south and west, reaching south to Turkey. Vagrants have reached north to Finland and south to Israel, Libya and Gambia. Red kites are 60 to 70 cm long with a 175–179 cm wingspan; males weigh 800–1,200 g, and females 1,000–1,300 g. It is an elegant bird, soaring on long wings held at a dihedral, and long forked tail, twisting as it changes direction. The body, upper tail and wing coverts are rufous. The white primary flight feathers contrast with the black wing tips and dark secondaries. Apart from the weight difference, the sexes are similar, but juveniles have a buff breast and belly. Its call is a thin piping sound, similar to but less mewling than the common buzzard. There is a rare white leucistic form accounting for approximately 1% of hatchlings in the Welsh population but is at a disadvantage in the survival stakes The red kite's diet consists mainly of small mammals such as mice, voles, shrews, young hares and rabbits. It feeds on a wide variety of carrion including sheep carcasses and dead game birds. Live birds are also taken and occasionally reptiles and amphibians. Earthworms form an important part of the diet, especially in spring. As scavengers, red kites are particularly susceptible to poisoning. Illegal poison baits set for foxes or crows are indiscriminate and kill protected birds and other animals. There have also been a number of incidents of red kites and other raptors being targeted by wildlife criminals. Although adult red kites are sedentary birds, occupying their breeding home range all year in most cases, populations from Central and Northern Europe—although not the United Kingdom—may migrate south to areas such as Spain and the Iberian peninsula during colder winters. Each nesting territory can contain up to five nest sites. Both male and female birds build the nest on a main fork or a limb high in a tree, 12–20 m above the ground. The nest is made of twigs and lined with grass or other vegetation and sheep’s wool. At signs of danger, a mother will signal the young who will "play dead" when a predator is near. Red kites inhabit broadleaf woodlands, valleys and wetland edges, to 800 metres. They are endemic to the western Palearctic, with the European population of 19,000–25,000 pairs encompassing 95% of its global breeding range. It breeds from Spain and Portugal east into central Europe and Ukraine, north to southern Sweden, Latvia and the UK, and south to southern Italy. There is a population in northern Morocco. Northern birds move south in winter, mostly staying in the west of the breeding range, but also to eastern Turkey, northern Tunisia and Algeria. The three largest populations (in Germany, France and Spain, which together hold more than 75% of the global population) declined between 1990 and 2000, and overall the species declined by almost 20% over the ten years. The main threats to red kites are poisoning, through illegal direct poisoning and indirect poisoning from pesticides, particularly in the wintering ranges in France and Spain, and changes in agricultural practices causing a reduction in food resources. Other threats include electrocution, hunting and trapping, deforestation, egg-collection (on a local scale) and possibly competition with the generally more successful black kite M. migrans.

One of the Esso Road Maps, produced for the then Anglo-American Oil Company by Stanford's. This sheet, No. 4, covering Wales and the Midlands is nicely anonymous as it does not carry either a date nor an attribution for the front cover. Given the lack of any motorway (such as the early M45 or M50) it's likely to be mid-late 1950s.

 

Anyhow, all is well with the world; on the cover there's a pipe clenched between the teeth so its British and masculine. Equally, the happy motorist in the car in this cartoon is additionally wearing tweed. Not signed this cartoon is by, I am sure, Russell Partridge Brockbank, a well knwon British cartoonist and artist who specialised in motoring and aviation work.

The mountain Esja (914 m (2,999 ft)) often called Esjan ("the Esja") is situated in the south-west of Iceland, about 10 km to the north of Iceland's capital city Reykjavík. Esja is not a single mountain, but a volcanic mountain range, made from basalt and tuff-stone.

 

Within easy reach of the capital, Esja is a very popular recreation area for hikers and climbers. The best known hiking paths lead to the summits Þverfellshorn and Kerhólakambur (851 m). Þverfellshorn is also easy accessible by public transport.

 

The path is divided into sections, marked with signs along the way. Each sign gives an indication of the difficulty of the path ahead with a grade system ranging from 1 boot (easy) to 3 boots (challenging). At sign 3 experienced climbers can choose to climb directly to the top, instead of following the path which goes of to the right. Approximately 200 meters below the top, there is a point marked with a big rock called Steinn. It is here that most inexperienced climbers choose to go down again, as the path becomes increasingly difficult from there.

On Friday, Misty and I did some shooting in a favorite location of mine, an alley on Broad Street. I've shot there a couple of times before (see Kevin and Amber). Misty did a great job posing, and I really loved the intensity in her eyes. She's always a pleasure to shoot with.

The road sign for the Internet café Favorita uses the at-sign for the second "a", while the signs at the door uses just ordinary letters. So the at-sign isn't there as part of a valid e-address, it's there to signify the "internet-ishness" of the place. Which makes it iconic.

 

An icon of the net, rather than the real thing.

Behold the Bamboodu Theater -- a portable puppet show for political rallies, civic events and art shows.

 

I created this street theater experience to engage people of all ages to help change the world through civic action.

 

Our first scene features Lady Liberty and Mr. Trump, illustrating the eternal fight between hope and fear through animated puppets, visual gags, news tickers and music, powered by Arduino.

 

The Bamboodu Theater will be on exhibit at Artworks Downtown in San Rafael from April 14 to 28. We also plan to show it at the Tax March in San Francisco on April 15, at Marinovators in the College of Marin on April 22, at the Climate March on April 29 and the Mill Valley Memorial Day Parade on May 30.

 

I’m very grateful to all the gracious collaborators who helped me create the Bamboodu Theater: Edward Janne, Phyllis Florin, Mark Petrakis, Geo Monley, Jean Bolte and our friends at Pataphysical Studios. Special thanks to Angelique Benicio for inviting us to premiere it at Signs of Hope, her political art show at Artworks Downtown in San Rafael.

I look at signs like this and wonder how long they have been there. The weathering on the sign and the ages of the lettering would suggest quite a while.
