To all the tea partiers upset but by the supreme court ruling on the Affordable Care Act that want a new home where being gay is punished not by conversion therapy but beheading, the state religion is strictly enforced and any abortion is absolutely illegal. Thankfully you won't find those conditions north of the 49th parallel. You can however get everything you want in Saudi Arabia, Iran or Afghanistan. Have fun.

I know from personal experience how hard it is to put 600+ hp to the ground on street tires.  Thanks to launch control systems like the one in the 2013 Shelby GT500, it suddenly becomes a whole lot easier.

BMW and +TOYOTA held a joint press conference in Munich this morning. While speculation that the 2 companies would share hybrid, fuel cell and diesel powertrains has been rampant for several weeks the surprise was that they would collaborate on a new sports car architecture. Back in 2010 when I visited Toyota in Japan Akio Toyota admitted that he wanted to revive the Supra. This could be a great opportunity to do just that combining the lightweight carbon fiber technology that BMW has developed for i3 and i8 electric vehicles

It's great to see that Google has opted to build the Nexus Q here in the US! I don't have a need for such a device right now with plenty of media streamers (no apple tvs tho) and docks already in the house but if I was shopping, the combination of features and local manufacture would steer me toward google.
