The 2011 Formula One Airtel Grand Prix of India is the newest addition of the 2011 Formula One season and it was held on the all new Buddh International Circuit. We're amazed to see an emerging country like India hosted their first ever Formula One Grand Prix and this new challenge packs a lot of surprises.
Red Bull Racing's Sebastian Vettel, who is the 2011 F1 World Champion, conquered the twists and turns of Buddh International Circuit, placing him 1st place while McLaren Mercedes' Jenson Button placed second and Fernando Alonso from Ferrari landed on third place.
Other F1 racers are experiencing problems on this new track. Among them are STR-Ferrari's Sebastien Buemi, Williams-Cosworth's Pastor Maldonaldo, Virgin-Cosworth's Timo Glock, and Sauber-Ferrari's Kamui Kobayashi.
Anyway, India's first Formula One Grand Prix will serve as one of the great moments in F1 history. Two more races remaining and the semi-finals will be held at Abu Dhabi this November 13, 2011!
Ok, now for numbers 51 to 60 of my 100 favorite Chevrolet cars in celebration of Chevrolet's 100th year!
51) Chevrolet Orlando - this Cruze-based MPV is marketed worldwide and it was the first Chevrolet landed and made in South Korea. We're still waiting when will this Orlando coming to the Philippines but don't worry, there are gray market Orlando models out there.
2012 Chevrolet Orlando
52) Chevrolet Venture - the most memorable Chevrolet minivan ever made and I truly prefer this over the rubbish Uplander. When it came to the Philippines, we even classify it either a family mover or a luxury car.
2001 Chevrolet Venture
53) Chevrolet Zafira - I don't remember that there is an Opel Zafira dressed as a Chevrolet but countries like Thailand, Brazil, and the Philippines have this Chevrolet Zafira. It's rare to see a Chevrolet Zafira running around Manila right now...
Chevrolet Zafira
54) Chevrolet HHR - being retro isn't quite good enough for the Chevrolet HHR but I think it looks very decent to be the most memorable Chevrolet in my loving memory. Sadly, 2011 marks the end of the Chevrolet HHR.
2008 Chevrolet HHR
55) Chevrolet Lumina APV - The design of this minivan is too radical but I think it looks very nice for the Lumina APV, an instant classic.
1995 Chevrolet Lumina APV
56) Second-generation Chevrolet Astro - If I were an Astro enthusiast, I'd say that the second-generation Astro was the best Astro I have ever seen. It was appeared in the PS2 racing game titled Enthusia Professional Racing as a playable car.
1999 Chevrolet Astro
57) First-generation Chevrolet Astro - Isn't that funny that some ice cream men using the first-generation Chevrolet Astro as their ice cream vans? Not always but I saw one parked at the park.
1991 Chevrolet Astro
58) 2nd-generation Chevrolet Express - The Chevrolet Express is the kind of Chevrolet van that adapts through multiple businesses. Maybe this is how they give the Nissan Urvan a finger that proves that this van's a good business carrier than the Nissan Urvan.
2011 Chevrolet Express
59) First-generation Chevrolet Express - There's nothing special about the first-generation Chevrolet Express van but I think this is the kind of van I want my dad to find one on Craigslist.
2000 Chevrolet Express
60) Chevrolet Uplander - It maybe claimed that this model is the successor of the Venture but the design's a bit rubbish. That's okay, though...
This Subaru commercial aired in Canada really gets its groove on its "Confidence in Motion" brand slogan. Perhaps the cars made by Subaru does have the grooves to keep our confidences in motion. Those who are asking what song is played on this Canadian Subaru ad, the answer is Summer's Gonna Be My Girl by The Go. I repeat, Summer's Gonna Be My Girl by The Go. Get it?
This is it. You'll be able to spot it in a crowd by virtue of its front cover, 1080p resolution, exclusive downloadable contents, and best of all, this game has finally arrived in a gaming console that they didn't put it on the first place.
THE IDOLM@STER 2 is the hit sequel of the 2007 XBOX 360 original video game. This game was launched in February 24, 2011 across Japan and it garners a huge success just like the original. So what happens if THE IDOLM@STER 2 is on the Playstation3? Well, in my case, you look like a spaniel with its head out of the window. LOAD ABOVE!
The IDOLM@STER 2 is now on the Playstation3 for the first time and PS3 owners are pleased to play the hit sequel that takes over Japan by storm of moe-ness. THE IDOLM@STER 2 follows the same chemistry of its predecessors, combining the elements of a dating sim game and some Dance Dance Revolution-style button-mashing action at the same time. As the producer, you are taking responsibility to the idols of your own choice; from Haruka, Hibiki, Miki, Makoto, Chihaya, Takane, Yukiho, Mami, and Yayoi.
Every rehearsals, every concerts, every dates, everything you need to know as a producer is the key to achieve higher rankings and every idol's happiness. Once more, personalization can be a notable feature. Every idol's style can affect the outcome of the game and how you personalize your idols is up to you.
Also, feel free to snap shot your favorite idol's precious moments during concerts. It's best to keep your favorite idol moments after the concert.
As a producer, it's your responsibility to check schedules on when will the auditions, live performances, and others occur and best to be active on those venues in order to bring out the idols' star factor. If there's nothing left, feel free to spend time talking with your idols but just like any other dating sims we know, trust is necessary to make stronger ties between the producer (that's you) and the idols.
However, since we're on this "Japan Original" thing, I have a confession to make on the IM@S 2's behalf. The standard XBOX 360 version of THE IDOM@STER 2 costs 8,800 Japanese Yen. This PS3 version costs 7,980 Japanese Yen for the Standard Version. The Limited Edition costs 19,800 Japanese Yen and it includes not just the game itself but also includes THE IDOLM@STER anime Blu-Ray Volume 1, THE IDOLM@STER 2 Game Soundtrack CD, a special magazine featuring Haruka Amami and Iori Minase called "Monthly I-Gra (月刊アイグラ)", and for a treat, THE IDOLM@STER G4U (Gravure For You) Volume 1.
What is G4U?
G4U or Gravure For You, is an IDOLM@STER stand-alone game that allows you to take a picture of your favorite 765PRO idols. You can use commands to have your idol do some cute and cool poses. The fun fact is that the photos you've taken can be saved on the PS3 hard drive and you can do whatever you want on the photo you have taken. In Volume One, the theme is "Summer Time" and the girls are wearing swim suits. Here's how it's done:
This is a new way to enjoy THE IDOLM@STER like you've never done before! Expect more G4U expansions with Volume 2 arriving this November 23. However, to only way to get these G4U expansions is by limited editions of THE IDOLM@STER anime Blu-Ray.
FOR SOMETHING SPECIAL: The first DLC on THE IDOLM@STER 2 PS3 version will feature Hatsune Miku!
The RE Amemiya FD3S RX-7 (RE雨宮 雨宮μ過給圧上昇7) is a souped up Mazda RX-7 made by RE Amemiya, a legendary tuner of Mazda rotary sports cars that were highly active in the Super GT and D1GP. Most of the body kits equipped on this RX-7 were all made by RE Amemiya and the tuned rotary engine produces 365HP of power and 274.8 ft-lb of torque. It even comes with the Quantum-based Amemiya spec adjustable suspension that makes it the best cornering RX-7 ever made. When this car appeared on Japan's tuner car DVD magazine, Hot Version, it became unstoppable on the mountain paths and earned the reputable nickname "The Demon King of the Touge".
It's good to be the king?
The Stig chills out in Kyoto with the RE Amemiya RX-7
So, is it good to be the king? It's hard to be king if you're not paying attention to the settings of this car. Surely, this is a great car with great cornering than the original RX-7 but the driver needs a good knowledge at the Aerodynamics, LSD, and Suspension to make sure that this RE Amemiya FD3S RX-7 really is a drift car rather than being a race car. It does made a great burnout but in the corners, it requires good amount of G-Force to tear them down into halves. With enough practice and the right setup, you have a proper handling RX-7 that can slice down your opponents in the game of Drifting.
The glory road to Tsukuba
A worthy competitor at Suzuka
If you're brave enough to master the fundamentals of this souped-up RX-7 as seen on Hot Version, you are sure that this car's easy to drive. It looks scary but it's not. This car never attacks the driver because only a skilled driver collaborates with the RE Amemiya FD3S RX-7. With that, this would be a good drift car to score massive points ahead from your rivals.
Before we begin, we just want to say thanks for making Banana Split best TV comedy program in the KBP Golden Dove awards! Finally, the dove has landed on the bananas! You guys are the best! Okay, where was I? Oh yeah!
