52 Years and Counting
When I was 14 years old, my parents, Lester and Marguerite Schalk, purchased our cabin from Roy Feldman who at the time also owned all of the land at "Feldman's Point". It was the summer of 1957 and my dad had been looking for a place in the Northwoods that had an open wooded area with a cabin not too close to the lake. This place fit that description perfectly and my dad instantly fell in love with it. After seeing the inside of the cabin my parents talked with Roy and purchased the property.
The cabin is located just north of "Feldman's Point" in the northwest corner of the bay. Roy built the cabin himself in 1956 with the same wood he cut to clear out an open area that starts in front of the cabin and continues all the way down to the lake. The interior of the cabin is the same wood Roy used from the land to build the cabin. He stained and oiled the wood to make each room appear a different color. When the cabin was purchased there was no inside plumbing and a hand pump was at the kitchen sink to get water from the well.
While Roy built another cabin just south of the one my parents bought, my parents let him stay in our cabin until his new cabin was finished in 1958. Roy lived in that new cabin until he passed away.
In the summer of 1958, my parents and I started vacationing at the cabin. We had no TV back then, and spent most of our evening's playing cards, games, or reading while listening to the radio. We didn't even have a telephone. What peaceful vacations we had back then.
When we were at the cabin, Roy would visit us and give us fresh vegetables from his garden. Many times he would come for supper and spend the evening with us. He had very interesting stories to tell about his life on Lake Thompson, and how he trapped animals and logged the land in the winter. We always enjoyed his company.
I also remember for many years the Boy Scouts would camp on the big island. We would hear them laughing and shouting as they had fun. And at night we could see the smoke from their campfires.
In 1964, my parents had a bathroom built and plumbing installed for running water. We also had our first telephone installed. We even had a TV up there, a 12 inch black and white one. It was better than nothing, back then.
In the mid 1980's my parents gave the cabin to myself, my first husband and our two sons. We spent all of our summer vacations going up to the cabin on Lake Thompson. My sons would also bring friends along and they would have fun fishing and just being boys. In fact, all of us actually enjoyed fishing. We fished for Walleyes, Crappies, Perch, Bass, and Bluegills. Every once in awhile my sons, or husband, would get lucky and catch a nice big Northern. My sons and I also remember sitting down by the lake and seeing the seaplane take off, fly around the lake, and then return again. We have often wondered why the seaplane rides stopped. My son Brian remembers he would be fishing on the pier when Edgar, a very nice elderly gentleman from across the lake, would pull up to the pier in his boat and they would talk about which fish were biting, where they were, and what they were biting on. Soon after Edgar would leave, Brian would be out in the little 12 foot row boat looking for those fish. Sometimes he would find them and sometimes he didn't.
My parents and first husband died in the late 80's and early 90's, so my sons and their friends would come up to the cabin with me. In 1992, I met my second husband, Herb. He was a great outdoors person and loved to fish and hunt. So, coming to the cabin with me was very special for him. He had children and grandchildren and they enjoyed spending time with us at the cabin. My son Brian and step-son Herby love to fish and spend most of their time on the lake when they are up there. In fact, every year they enter the Hodag Musky Challenge and have always fished it on Lake Thompson. Herby has even won the tournament once while fishing Lake Thompson. They usually will catch at least one musky, but sometimes struggle to catch more than that in the tournament. They also enjoy coming up for the bow hunting season, and Brian comes up for duck hunting too.
In 1996, Herb died, so again, I was coming up to the cabin with my sons and grandchildren. They love to go fishing, tubing on the lake, going for walks in the woods, and sitting around the campfire at night making S'mores. One year, when Halloween was close, we took the grandkids on a hayride at the Holiday Stables. Boy, did they have fun, and they even got frightened a couple of times.
My son Brian now owns the place because I wanted it to stay in the family. He is married and he and his wife, Lisa, are expecting their first child this fall, so another generation will have years of fun at Lake Thompson.
Over the 50 years I have seen many changes. Sadly, people I used to see and visit with on the lake have passed away. Pinewood Lodge, where we had many delicious dinners, is no longer a restaurant. We now have a larger screen color TV in our cabin, and the family members bring their cell phones, computers, and PSP's amongst other electronic devices when on vacation. There are a lot more year round homes and traffic on the lake. It can be fun just sitting on the pier watching all the boaters, water skiers, and jet skiers but, my sons don't particularly like them when they are trying to fish. Unfortunately, some of the water skiers and jet skiers don't always respect the other boaters and fishermen on lake.
I have so many wonderful memories of times spent with family and friends at our cabin. The family cabin has changed names 4 times--------my parents (Schalk), my first husband (Kolacki), my second husband (Timm), and now my son with his wife and future child (Kolacki). So, there will be many years of continued memories being made at the cabin on Lake Thompson.

Dayo Corley courtesy of Social Media
The NYPD arrested a man suspected in the death of a woman from Rochdale Village, Queens.
Dayo Corley's body was found in her vehicle near Baisley Pond Park on Halloween day, two days after she was reported missing by a co-worker. Corley was found by the police unconscious and unresponsive and pronounced dead at the scene.
Friends and relatives of the victim had feared the worse when Corley had not returned home after she was last seen on 137th Ave. and Farmer's Blvd., just around the corner from her apartment in Rochdale Village. She was immediately reported missing.
"The boyfriend had something to do with it," one friend speculated, who lives in Corley's building but didn't want to be identified. "She threw him out and he was stalking her."
Corley posted on her Facebook page, a month before her death, that someone nameless had tried to hack her account.
Residents from Corley's housing complex suspected the boyfriend in her killing immediately after her body was discovered by the police.
"He went missing in action the day after she was reported missing," one resident said.
On Friday, police arrested Qwantrell Gilliam, 41, of Queens, and charged him with murder and tampering with physical evidence, as well as with criminal possession of a weapon.
Friends and relatives celebrated Corley's birthday Thursday. She would have turned 44.
"All I can say is, we're going to miss her," one friend of the family said. "She was taken away from her family, her two beautiful kids, and all of us who adored her. What can I say? We're heartbroken. We still can't believe this happened to her."

In more ways than one, Koh Kood may be the last island resort on Thailand's expansionist tourism map.
Situated 80 kilometres south of Trat City and only 30 kilometres west of the Cambodian border, Kood is the kingdom's easternmost and literally last island resort in the Gulf of Thailand.
And with a land mass of 129 square kilometres, Kood is the last sizeable island – it is the fourth largest after Phuket, Chang and Samui – to be targeted by Thailand's tourism industry.
Problems with access have thus far saved Koh Kood from falling victim to the kind of construction frenzy that has seized nearby Koh Chang, but even so the island is far from virginal territory.
"When I bought property here five years ago there were only about four resorts on Koh Kood; now there are more than 30," said Boonchuay Kulsirvarathai, owner of the Siam Beach Resort at Bang Bao, a protected bay on the south-west coast that boasts one of the island's most beautiful white-sand beaches.
The island is already a lost paradise for backpackers.
"We were here a year ago and paid only 400 baht (11 dollars) for a beachfront bungalow," said Rudy, an Austrian traveller staying at Siam Beach Resort. "Now everything is 1,500 baht (42 dollars) and up."
The upmarket trend is in keeping with the government master plan for Kood, which has been designated as an "exclusive zone," meaning "exclusively" for well-off tourists.
"Right now there are a lot of investors going to Koh Kood because unlike many other islands it is not a national park, so it is relatively easy to buy land," said Chuchart Oncharoen, director of the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) office in Trat.
Some of the new investors are upmarket indeed.
Sixth Senses Resorts & Spas, a Bangkok-based hotel group, has bought a 150-hectare-plot of land in Yai Ke Bay, on Kood's western coast, that will offer 46 pool-villas (each 400 to 770 square metres) that start at 40,000 baht (1,111 dollars) and go up to 10,000 dollars a night.
Soneva Kiri, which plans a soft opening in October this year, will also be selling 32 four-bedroom residential villas on its property.
Sixth Senses is building a small airstrip on nearby Maisi Island to handle a 12-seater Sesna plane to bring its exclusive clientele from Bangkok directly to Koh Kood.
"We like to build our Sonevas in inaccessible places but make them convenient to get to," said Ray Hall, chief marketing officer for the Sixth Senses Group.
The group chose Kood for its first Soneva resort outside of the Maldives because it met its criteria of offering "inaccessibility, being close to nature and has vast personal space," said Hall.
Thailand's Central Group, which operates Central Department stores and the five-star Central hotel chain, has purchased a plot of beachfront property at Phrao Bay, on the southern tip of the island, although construction is not yet underway.
But so far most of the resorts on Koh Kood are in the medium-price range, charging between 40 to 80 dollars a night with many of them offering reasonably priced three-day packages including room, board and a day-trip.
The Ao Phrao Beach Resort, for instance, is doing a roaring trade attracting hordes of Russian tourists from Pattaya beach on three- day, two-night excursions for 5,000 baht (139 dollars) per person.
"The Russians are good customers. They keep to themselves and they don't complain about the variety of the food the way Thai customers do," said Samlueng Boondaeng, 65, a Kood native whose family turned their beachside coconut plantation into the Ao Phrao Beach Resort six years ago.
Popular day-trip excursions on Kood include treks in the island's forest, which although not classified as national park seem in much better shape than most national parks in Thailand, and mini-bus or motorcycle tours to Klong Chao Waterfall and the Fisherman Village (more appropriately named "Pirates' Village" in Thai) on the northern coast of the island.
Piracy and Peter Pan fantasies appears to be a popular theme on Kood, judging by some of the resorts names – Captain Hook Resort, Peterpan Resort and Neverland Beach Resort.
While the island is famed for its crystal clear water and shallow white-sand bays, it has no coral reefs to attract snorkelling and scuba diving enthusiasts.
But for snorkelling and diving one can take a boat to the nearby Koh Rang island chain which boasts some of the most beautiful reefs in Thailand and is a protected marine park.
For backpackers, scared away by Kood's rising prices, cheaper accommodation can be found on Koh Mak, about 10 kilometres north-west of Koh Kood, and some of the smaller islands surrounding it.
"Nowadays the backpackers are going to other islands like Koh Wai where you can stay for less than 500 baht (14 dollars) a night," said TAT's Chuchart.
Getting There: If you're not booked at the Soneva Kiri, go to Trat city, either by car, bus of Bangkok Airways. From Trat, 260 kilometres south-east of Bangkok, one can take a speed boat from the Dan Kao Pier, leaving at 10 a.m. every day, to Koh Kood for about 25 dollars round trip.
Alternatively, go to the Ngam Sok Pier, just 25 kilometres outside of Trat, and take a slightly faster speedboat to Koh Kood for 30 dollars.
Fortunately, Koh Kood might be saved from over development by way of it's out of the way location, which means getting to the island is a hassle and with no car ferry and very limited roads on the island it will be a while before hordes of Thais are driving there. But still worth visiting sooner, rather than later.

Honda has introduced a new model year version of its British-built Civic Type R Euro in Japan. The 2011MY batch will be the last of this model series to make its way to Japan as production of the current generation three-door Civic Type R has been terminated in Europe because its 2.0-litre VTEC engine does not meet the Euro V emissions regulations.

Swissauto 40Hp Kart: It doesn't get any purer than this
Supercars are nice, no doubt about it, but few people can really afford them. The price is high, upkeep is high, taxes are high and any mistake, even one that ends in a mild fender-bender is still going to cost you an arm and a leg. A bit too much then, for some weekend fun.
Fortunately, there is a cheaper alternative and, might I add, at least as fun as owning a supercar. A kart. This is driving at its purest form and if you ever saw a kart race with Ayrton Senna or Michael Schumacher in it you'll know what I'm talking about.

E28 BMW 5 Series Ad: "The Car that blurs the distinction between racing machines and luxury sedans"
Classic car ads are always nice, because they were made in times when people weren't so wound up and actually had the time to read something. So, there's plenty of information in them, some of which is quite entertaining today, almost thirty years later.
This here ad depicts the E28 BMW 5-Series, built between 1981 and 1988, claiming that it's both a sports car and luxury sedan.
Here we go again: Bulgarian Vilner luxifies the Camaro with impressive results
Vilner, who recently took it upon themselves to redo the interior of a Hennessey SRT600 Grand Cherokee, has now unleashed their interior-modifying skills on the new Camaro. Thank God, because it most definitely needs some fancy-pants stuff like this on the inside in order to take on the Mustang.
For this project, Vilner took a Silver Ice V6 Camaro and then added its own special magic to the seats, dash, ceiling, and all the rest. Instead of the common black plastic and leather found in most Camaros, Vilner's pony car wears "nubuck, aged nappa, and chrome" in its passenger compartment.
There's a redesigned steering wheel with better grips, too. Yeah, that's nice, but I'm still staring at all the leather. Why? Because it looks like a million bucks.
Speculative Rumors: Audi Readying Mid-Engine R5 Sports Car?
If we are to believe a report from Britain's Car magazine, Audi is planning to introduce a mid-engined sports car called the R5. Said to be positioned between the more mainstream TT and the flagship R8, the R5 is believed to be based on the VW Group's forthcoming MiMo (as in "MittelMotor") mid-engine sports car platform, which will also be used on future Porsche and VW models.

1970 Legrand Electric Car: Own a Piece of Seventies Kitsch
Are you (1) a white man with an afro, (2) wear flared trousers or (3) would say your favorite band is Jefferson Starship? If you answered, "Yes," to any of these questions then boy do we have the car for you.
Built by Glenn Legrand over a five year period and presumably completed in 1970, the Legrand Electric Car is a one-of-a-kind electric car for the '70s obsessive. According to the seller, Mr. Legrand got the plans from Popular Mechanics Magazine, back in the days when the magazine did that sort of thing.
Underneath that Johnny Cab body are the simple, reliable mechanicals of a Volkswagen Beetle, though the Legrand is three feet longer and two feet wider. The body is made out of a combination of polyurethane foam and fibreglass.
Mercedes F800 Style: Mega Gallery of baby CLS with 101 Photos

The compact-sized F800 was created to preview the German manufacturer's new design language, as seen later on the new CLS, which made its world debut in Paris last month.

Aussie Man Narrowly Escapes Hyundai Flying Into his Bedroom! [+Video]

The 31-year old man escaped almost certain death - or serious injuries at best, when he decided to get out of bed briefly at 2 am to check his computer in another room. A few minutes later, a Hyundai Excel [also know as the Pony] ploughed into his house and onto the bed he was lying on moments ago!

VIDEO: Red Bull X1 is the Fastest Car in Gran Turismo 5
The Red Bull X1 will be the fastest car in Sony's forthcoming Gran Turismo 5 - that is, if the game ever comes out… To prove this, Sebastian Vettel was asked to do a lap of the Nürburgring race track. As you'd expect, it was done in record time and you can witness it by watching the video after the break.
This is all fine and dandy, but the X1 doesn't exist in real life. However, the science behind it is very real, so, if it were to be built, it would be the fastest vehicle on Earth. Let's check out some [virtual] facts and numbers.
On paper, the X1 measures 0.98 m (38.58 inches) tall, 2.18 m (85.82 inches) wide and 4.75m (187 inches) long - or about the same length as an average family sedan.
RK Collection Toyota Camry Coupe V8 NASCAR Edition is a Little Less Beige
The standard Camry isn't exactly what you'd call an exciting car - well, unless the gas pedal and floor mats decide to do their thing and kick in, that is... But as you might imagine, this here SEMA-bound example is a totally different beast from your everyday Camry. First of all, it's only got two doors. And then there's that massive V8 engine lurking under the hood.
The special two-door Toyota Camry NASCAR Edition was developed by RK Collection (RKC) in cooperation with the Japanese firm's in-house Toyota Racing Development (TRD) division. The goal was to create a high-performance but completely street legal Camry with a NASCAR engine to demonstrate the connection between Toyota's production vehicles and its NASCAR program.
Mercedes releases new photos of 2012 SLK Roadster, gets panoramic glass roof
Mercedes-Benz has published a bevy of pictures of its next-generation SLK hardtop roadster during endurance testing in the heat of Death Valley to show off the upcoming model's panoramic glass-roof with Magic Sky Control [MSC].
Driving with the top down is not always an option. There might be clear blue skies, but temperatures could be also very low. Other times the car's interior gets way too hot if it has a panoramic glass roof. Either way, your drive is ruined.
And this is where the Magic Sky Control system comes into the picture. A roughly 2,000 euro (US $2,772) option for the next generation SLK, the MSC is, in essence, a panoramic roof that can be made either transparent or darkened, just by pushing a button.
Subaru to Bring "Fastest STI Ever" and Other Performance Cars to SEMA
For a company that builds the wildly popular in the tuning scene WRX and STI models, Subaru appears to be taking it easy at this year's edition of the SEMA Show.
According to the official announcement, Subaru's offerings on the Las Vegas Convention Center floor will be highlighted by the "fastest STI ever"; a pre-production test model that lapped the Ring in 7:55:00 in the hands of four-time World Rally Champion, Tommi Mäkinen this past summer (see video here).
VIDEO: Aston Martin One-77 hits the Nürburgring

Well, it seems that engineers and test drivers are indeed refining this 750-horsepower beast these days, as a prototype model has been caught on video while frantically lapping the Nürburgring race track.

Highlighting Scion's presence at next week's SEMA Show will be five customized examples of the Japanese firm's all-new 2011 tC Coupe. When it leaves the factory, the tC is motivated by a naturally aspirated 2.5-liter engine pushing out 185-horsepower.
As you'd expect, most tuners chose the turbocharging route to increase the tC's performance under the hood, with GReddy being the only company to announce output figures (340hp and 325 lb-ft of peak torque). Scroll down for photos and full details (in the spec sheets) for all five tCs.
Scion has Humor: All-Stretched out Cartel xB Limo
With the annual SEMA Show near the world's most famous Strip almost upon us (November 2 to 5), automakers and tuners alike are rushing in to give us an early preview of their custom proposals. The most recent case-in-point: the "All Stretched Out Cartel xB".
The name says it all, but just to clarify, Cartel [King] is the nickname of one of the tuners involved in the creation of the VIP themed, super-long Scion xB, Jeremy Lookofsky. Though, we could see this customized xB being a hit with certain other cartels... Gallery after the jump.Read more »
VW Scirocco R: Now with Optional Racing Bucket Seats

Murcielago LP640 "Yeniceri Edition": Unicate's World Record Setting Lamborghini
When you see "world record" and "Lamborghini Murcielago" in the same sentence, in a tuner's press release, usually something extreme follows, with out-of-this-world power and speed being pretty safe bets.
But that's not how Unicate does things. The German tuner pushed the envelope in a different way with this Yeniceri Edition Murcielago. This here example of Sant' Agata's supercar has the biggest tires ever fitted to a Murcielago.
David Cardoso wants Renault to do the Twist with New Design Concept
David Cardoso, whose work includes the water-bound Audi Hydron concept and Cobalt coupe, has created a new car concept to take on Mitsubishi's i-Miev. Envisioned as a Renault, the Twist would be a small electric city vehicle to slot between the baby Twingo and larger Modus MPV.
From the looks of it, the Twist's design is awkward enough to be Renault (and I say that in a good way). Its nose is nothing to blow people away style-wise, but it certainly looks the part of an i-Miev competitor. Luckily, that means it can win people over with cuteness.
Besides the apparently tall and spine-straightening seating area designed by chiropractors, the Twist looks ready to go. Even the wheels are a realistic size, unlike a lot of renderings put out there.
Nissan Recalls 2.1 Million Vehicles Worldwide Over Ignition Problem

Ferrari World Abu Dhabi Previewed to the Press, but Public Opening Delayed [Photos and Videos]
The first ever theme park dedicated to Ferrari and the largest of its kind, opened its doors to the international press on Wednesday. Ferrari World Abu Dhabi's much-anticipated public opening was also scheduled for the same day, however it was postponed due to the death of 92-year-old Sheik Saqr bin Mohammed Al-Qasimi, the ruler of emirate Ras Al Khaimah.
Ferrari World's officials are said to have been expecting up to 10,000 people on the first day of its opening. Today, it was announced that the 40-acre theme park on Yas Island in Abu Dhabi, will open to the public on November 4.
A Painted History of Skoda
Just today, we learned that Skoda delivered a record number of vehicles in the first nine months of 2010, increasing its operating profit by a whopping 64%. This is what most people know about the Czech automaker; that it has been a wild success since Volkswagen took over the reins of the company. But there are others -myself included- who think the real glory of Skoda lies in its past.

GM Confirms Entry-Level Cadillac to target BMW 3-Series, will be built at Lansing
We've known for a while that Cadillac plans to expand its line-up with new models including a smaller than the CTS entry-level sedan, and by doing so, target the likes of the BMW 3-Series and Mercedes C-Class.
Today, General Motors announced the new small Cadillac will be built at the Lansing Grand River assembly plant. The company said it plans to invest $190 million for this purpose, which will result in the creation of 600 jobs and the addition of a second shift.
SEMA: HPP Comes up with its own Trans-Am Camaro kit
The last time we heard from Heide Performance Products (HPP), the Michigan-based tuner showcased a Daytona conversion for Dodge's Challenger. Keeping with the vintage theme, HPP is now ready to show its next pony car conversion - a Camaro-based Trans-Am kit - at this year's SEMA show in Vegas.
As with all the other Firebird body kits out there (Lingenfelter's, ASC's, etc), HPP's version does its best to bring back the good-ol' days of the screaming chicken. The results, as with any "we're selling you memories" conversion, vary.
Regarding the proposition of selling this conversion (for anything other than the collectability factor), I don't see a point. Pontiac is D-E-A-D, it's not coming back, and that means anyone's "new" Trans-Am will forever be a Chevy wearing a costume. It's similar to having a Plymouth nameplate on a modern Chrysler or Dodge; the vintage naming works for the Daytona, but not for the Superbird.
Lamborghini Opens its First Dealerships in Mexico
Being that the Mexican economy is on the rise for a select few [...], Lamborghini has opened not one, but two dealerships in the country. The first to open on October 26 was the "Lamborghini Mexico City" dealership, located on one of the city's most important avenues on Insurgentes Sur. It was followed by "Lamborghini Monterrey" on 27 October, situated in the so-called "Beverly Hills of Latin America" in the municipality of San Pedro, Nuevo León.

2011 Dodge Avenger Officially Revealed, gets New Interior and 283HP V6
Another day, another new or in this case, refreshed Chrysler Group product. Enter the 2011 Dodge Avenger that has been overhauled with a completely new interior, better powertrain options, a revised suspension and a barely noticeable exterior facelift.
Unlike its Chrysler 200 brethren, the 2011 Avenger receives only a few minor exterior tweaks and in particular, the new signature Dodge Brand "split crosshair" grille and a redesigned bumper up front, plus new LED tail lamps at the back.
The big styling changes are found inside where the Avenger gets a brand new interior with a far more contemporary design and higher-grade materials that Dodge claims are "more pleasing to the touch but also to the eye".
Fiat Debuts Uno Cabrio and Mio Concepts along with New Uno Sporting at Sao Paulo [Live Photos]
In addition to being one of Fiat's most important markets, the Italian automaker is also getting ready to celebrate its 35 years in Brazil next year, so it comes to no surprise that the company is exhibiting a total of 30 vehicles at this week's Sao Paulo Auto Show. The Uno Cabrio and Mio [or FCC 111] concept models and the new Uno Sporting and Bravo production models, are among the highlights of Fiat's display.
Beginning with the Uno Cabrio, this concept study is a two-seater drop top variant of the South American market Uno supermini. In addition to losing the Uno's top and rear seats, the quirky looking roadster model also sports an aggressive bodykit with newly designed front and rear bumpers and a set of 17-inch alloy wheels.
The engine of choice is the same one as of Punto T-Jet, a 152HP 1.4-liter turbo which is capable of carrying the Cabrio to a top speed close to 200 km/h [124mph].

Bill Caswell to Convert E30 BMW into Baja Racer During SEMA Show
E30s seem to be popping up everywhere lately. After the impressive electric 3-Series from VST Conversions, we now have word that one Bill Caswell and his late 1980's E30 will be at SEMA thanks to Miller Electric Mfg. Co.
The "rally racer and ultimate DIY enthusiast" made news in March when he took on $100,000+ competition in an old 318i during Rally Mexico. While at SEMA, Bill will be converting a 1989 BMW 3-Series coupe [E30] into an off-road Baja blaster in order to compete in the SCORE Baja 1000's Sportsman class (starting November 17th). Now that's hardcore.
Here's a breakdown of Bill's SEMA welding schedule prior to tackling the rally: roll cage on day 1, front cage/suspension on day 2, rear cage/suspension on day 3, and "accessories" on day 4. Day 4's work will include finishing the main cage and crafting other Baja racing necessities such as a front brush guard, fuel cell, light bar, and more.

VIDEO: BMW X3 vs. Audi Q5 in an all-wheel drive man-made hill climb
Who would have thought that BMW's all-wheel drive systems were enough to shame Audi's famous quattro system? Not the average consumer, that's for sure (though BMW certainly has had enough time to get it right). BMW, which has actually been making AWD cars for the past 25 years, has decided to begin more aggressively targeting consumers who live in harsher climates.
According to this video, BMW's xDrive is vastly superior to Audi's quattro - at least when driving up metal inclines built by BMW... In the clip, we get a glimpse at what appears to be some sort of BMW press event and a hill climb-off between two small-ish diesel-powered premium soft-roaders: Audi's Q5 and BMW's X3.
Ford Bringing Nine Specially Customized 2011 Mustangs to SEMA Show
A SEMA Show without a boat load of tricked out Mustangs is like a Texas barbeque without beef. And sure enough, aside from the numerous private builds, Ford will showcase a total of nine customized versions of the 2011 Mustang at the Las Vegas Convention Center.
"If you're a Mustang enthusiast looking to set your Mustang apart from others, SEMA is like going into a toy store full of inspirational imagery," said Melvin Betancourt, Ford design manager.
One of the customized Mustangs will be a 2011 GT model prepared by Ford Vehicle Personalization with parts from the firm's accessory catalog. These include a rear pedestal spoiler, rear quarter window louvers, side scoops and a billet grille – all finished in a liquid silver color, plus 18-inch machined liquid silver wheels. Hit the jump for details and pictures on the rest of the SEMA-bound Mustangs.
Subaru unveils sportier Forester tS with STI parts in Japan
It might not be for "U.S.", or any other market outside of Japan, for that matter, but the new JDM Subaru Forester tS deserves our attention. Based on the Forester S-Edition, the tS has been upgraded with a raft of STi parts including a modified suspension that sits 15 mm lower than usual, 17-inch alloys, a front spoiler and the customary tS logos.

It's easy to spend all day searching for inspiration. You can find incredible videos, articles, and news stories, and email them out to all of your friends. But the best (and longest lasting) type of inspiration comes from applying those outside bits of motivation to your own goals.
Make no mistake: it's important to be a learner. Successful people in all fields soak up new information. They find inspiration and motivation in the work and success of others.
But here's the problem: consuming the success and ideas of others is passive inspiration. Every time you watch a video, read an article, or listen to an interview, you're practicing passive inspiration. You might learn something, but you don't actually have to do anything. Hearing about other people's success isn't the same thing as creating your own.
Instead, it is through the process of active inspiration — the act of creating things, applying new ideas to our goals, and making mistakes — that we discover who we are and what is important to us. Furthermore, active inspiration is what results in long—term passion and enthusiasm. Watching someone else's success might leave you feeling excited for a few minutes, but taking action and applying a new idea to your life will inspire you more than anything someone else could say.
Learning and listening can help you think about things in a different way, but creating, producing, and experimenting is what propels you forward. Passive inspiration can give you ideas, but active inspiration will give you momentum.
Direct interaction with professionals helps in boosting confidence and clarifying the doubts in a different way.
It all starts with habits. Start reading and get self-improvement tips. Change your habits to change your life.
