Last sunday I visited the "Autostadt Wolfsburg". It is a visitor attraction adjacent to the Volkswagen factory in Wolfsburg, Germany, with a prime focus on automobiles. It features a museum, feature pavilions for the principal automobile brands in the Volkswagen Group, a customer centre where German customers can pick up new cars, and take a tour through the enormous factory, and a lot more.
As you can see in the picture, even cars can evolve :-). I don't know why but I like both rears.
This one made me laugh so much, I had to post it!
Little H is hunched over, emerging from the water; Big H is using simple tools; finally, C is running upright!

Skirmish - Clifford D. Simak [589 2014-02-11]
"Skirmish"(1977) is a collection of ten stories by the noted science-fiction author Clifford Simak (1904-88). The stories were all previously published during years 1944-75.
In addition to the stories there is a very informative 5-page author's forward. Simak details the themes he uses, the type of characters that appeal to him and his use of southwest Wisconsin as a local for many of his stories.
The following are comments on the stories in the order they appear in the book:
"Huddling Place"(1944) and "Desertion"(1944) may be familiar to some readers since they are chapters from the author's future history novel "City". The stories can be enjoyed individually but interested readers should read them again in the context of the book "City".
"Skirmish"(1950) originally published under the title "Bathe Your Bearings in Blood" features a newspaper editor as the protagonist - interestingly that was author Simak's day job for most of his working life. Alien beings animate machines - typewriter, sewing machine etc. prior to an outright invasion and the subjugating of mankind. This 60 plus year old story has not aged well.
"Good Night, Mr. James"(1951) a vicious alien being is let loose in a Midwestern city and must be apprehended before they reproduce. A nasty twist of fate for the protagonist awaits readers in the stories last sentence.
"The Sitters"(1958) the location for this thoughtful story of human aging and benevolent alien beings is the town Millville - a local used frequently in Simak's fiction and the name of the town where he was raised.
"The Big Front Yard"(1958) this story won the Hugo award for best novelette published during 1958. I found this story just too cute and overflowing with SF stereotypes and full of logical impossibilities but many Simak fans think this is one of his better stories.
"All the Traps of Earth"(1960) one of the best stories in the collection in my estimation. The two themes that permeated much of Simak's fiction, robots and mankind's intellectual evolution, are thoughtfully parsed out in this absorbing tale.
"The Thing in the Stone"(1970) a man retreats to a dilapidated farm in southwest Wisconsin to heal from an accident that killed his family. In this geological pristine location he become aware that a head injury gives him a view into the ancient past where he discovers an enigmatic mystery.
"The Autumn Land"(1971) an old town in a hidden Midwest valley serves as a metaphor for an indeterminate rest stop after death. In his introduction to this collection Simak states he was very pleased with this story - and so was this reader.
"The Ghost of a Model T"(1975) another metaphoric story of life after death. A model T automobile drives two presumably dead individuals around reliving some prior life experiences.
If you are curious or new to the writings of Simak this collection is well worth reading.

“Industrial Evolution: The Chilean Industrial Electro & EBM Compilation -Vol. 1” surge como una plataforma para dar a conocer al mundo el trabajo de las bandas y proyectos más destacados en materia de Música Industrial y Electrónica Extrema en nuestro país. Un nicho que aún se muestra en crecimiento, pero que ha logrado alzar su voz en el siempre laborioso ambiente independiente. Este primer volumen recorre cada uno de los agrestes pasajes que conforman este torrente de sonoridades y que brindan un gran refresco al rock chileno. La agresividad y contundencia de Industrial Company Inc. y Nausea, la energía lacerante de Vigilante y Null, el beat visceral de Proyecto Crisis y Die Braut, la desafiante intensidad femenina de Barouh y el estimulante y meticuloso Electro al más puro estilo “Old School” de Humanoides; reflejan la gran calidad de cada una de las propuestas en juego. Todos brindando un deleite auditivo de gran nivel y demostrando que el rock no solo se destila con una guitarra bajo el brazo.

Evolution - Let there be Light. Licht, veel licht was er zeker! Wat een mooie licht- en lasershow. Dat maakt het werk voor partyfotografen leuk en uitdagend :) Behalve mooi licht, werd er ook nog eens top gedraaid. Held van de avond voor mij was toch zeker wel Markus Schulz. Het was voor mij wel even wennen de weg die Tiesto in slaat. Je kunt het mooi vinden of niet, hij blijft zichzelf vernieuwen. Dat was aan de set bij Evolution ook goed te horen. En dat is zeker knap als je al zolang meegaat als Tijs. Al met al een topweekend, met eerst Reloaded..... Dance into the Future en daarna Evolution - Let there be Light. Thx. Radio 538 voor de uitstekende organisatie. Hopelijk krijgt dit initiatief een vervolg volgend jaar.

On June 30, 2013, Mitsubishi raced to the clouds and accomplished an amazing feat at the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb. Equipped with Mitsubishi's most advanced engineering, including the advanced Super All Wheel Control, the MiEV Evolution II race cars, piloted by drivers Hiroshi Masuoka and Greg Tracy, made it to the top of Pikes Peak safely in the harshest of weather conditions—even besting last year's time. Congratulations to our drivers for placing 2nd and 3rd in the EV Division!
