Other than the original 1960′s Batmobile, no other car captured the attention of the crowds at the 2013 Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale auction like the 2014 Corvette Stingray. As it worked its way through the throng of bidders and spectators and made its way up on the auction block, Adam and Dylan from Adam's Premium Polishes were there to make sure the Stingray was ready for its TV appearance with Adam's officially licensed Corvette Detail spray and Adam's Double Soft microfiber towels.

The National Corvette Museum recently announced the 2013 inductees into their Corvette Hall of Fame. This year's honorees include a noted enthusiast/restorer, a former Corvette Plant Manager, and a decorated Corvette racing driver.
Count Jay Leno as a big fan of the new 2014 Corvette Stingray already.
On a recent installment of his Jay Leno's Garage, the words "amazing" and "exciting" and "beautiful" are heard frequently as he and designer Ed Welburn do a walk-around inside and outside the car at Brown's Classic Auto in Scottsdale, Ariz.
As Barrett-Jackson and five other of the most prestigious collector car auctioneers in the world wrapped up their elaborate events in Scottsdale, Arizona last weekend, the largest collector car auction in the world was just getting started. Though there are differing opinions on the subject, in Mecum Auctions' case, Size Does Matter!
Looking for a different kind of C1?
Then you might want to check into this 1958 Corvette racer currently being auctioned on eBay. The bid has reached $60,000, but you can buy it now for $89,500.
It's become something of a weekend tradition for many folks to watch Sunday Morning on CBS.
This past week, reporter Lee Cowan took the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray for a spin, including a trip down Memory Lane, and the result was a very flattering video about our favorite sports car.

CorvetteBlogger was the first to tell you the 2014 Corvette Stingray Coupe would be sold at Barrett-Jackson and tonight the red Stingray made its auction debut at the collector car auction in Scottsdale. Offered by General Motors is the first Retail VIN #001 2014 Corvette Stingray and the proceeds of the sale would go to charity.
The 1958 Corvette owned by General Motors Chairman and CEO Dan Akerson raised $270,000 for charity after it was sold Friday, January 18th at Barrett-Jackson's collector car auction in Scottsdale. Purchasing the Corvette was Chevrolet dealer and NASCAR team owner Rick Hendrick.
General Motors has done a great job of hyping the reveal of the next generation Corvette, which will debut this Sunday evening at 7 pm. While the event will be held at an undisclosed location in Detroit with only invited media and paid guests from the National Corvette Museum attending, we are now learning that the reveal will be live-streamed on the internet.
As the holidays draw to a cold and snowy close, being an avid Corvette lover, your thoughts wander to the Daytona Sunset Orange Metallic coupe safely tucked away under the custom car cover in your garage and wander briefly what color the new C7 will be when it is unveiled on January 13th in Detroit. Like many Corvette "car guys" you've thought about several details of what the new generation of cars would look like and how they would perform compared to your C6. More than once you cursed yourself for being too late to purchase one of the hundred and fifty $995 tickets the National Corvette Museum sold to be one of the privileged few at the formal introduction of Chevrolet's halo car to the media.

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (AP) - The United States Coast Guard is offloading some $40 million of cocaine at Port Everglades.
Crewmembers of the Coast Guard Cutter Vigorous started unloading approximately 1,212 kilograms of cocaine early Friday in Fort Lauderdale.
The cocaine was seized during two interdictions in the Caribbean Sea earlier this month as part of Operation Martillo.
Lt. Commander Gabe Somma says the 7th Coast Guard District, which covers the southeastern United States, Puerto Rico and the Caribbean, also unloaded some $12 million in cocaine in Tampa and around $32 million in Puerto Rico this week.

COLLIER COUNTY, Fla.- Deputies are searching for a grizzly bear cub that ran away from a private residence in Golden Gate Estates on Tuesday morning.
The Collier County Sheriff's Office is assisting the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission in the search.
The 125-pound cub ran away from a residence at 4670 43rd Ave. NE in Naples around 11:00 a.m. The bear is suspected to be in a wooded area on the owner's property or a neighboring property. However, it could potentially travel in search of food.
Deputies are cautioning residents in the area to be on alert for the cub and not approach it.
Wildlife officers advise anyone who may encounter the cub not to run. Rather, clap your hands and say, "Bear go home." The cub, which was raised in captivity, will likely run away.
Residents are advised to secure trash cans in their garage or enclosed area
Anyone who sees the cub is asked to contact the Collier County Sheriff's Office at 252-9300, or call the FWCC Wildlife Alert hotline at 888-404-FWCC (3922).

'The choice of language and the use to which language is put is central to a people'sdefinition of themselves in relation to their natural and social environment, indeed inrelation to the entire universe.'1This quote by the Kenyan writer Ngugi expresses the exceedingly important relationshipbetween language and the individual in general. This relationship is gaining even moreimportance for a continent such as Africa, in which large parts of the native population wereoppressed by European colonial powers for centuries. One important instrument of oppressionwas definitely language and the feeling of European superiority resulting out of culturaltraditions, such as literature. In South Africa, where two major colonial powers were fightingfor supremacy and many different native ethnic groups were combined in one state, thequestion of language would almost naturally provoke conflicts and crisis. In this essay, Ishould like to have a closer look at this delicate relationship between language and power inSouth African literature with the example of a Black and a White African writer, Sol T.Plaatje and Nadine Gordimer. In his historical overview, Leonard Thompson already describes the South Africa of the 18thcentury as a 'linguistic Babel'2. Afrikaans, a simplified form of Dutch and at first only used inoral communication, would gradually develop into the lingua franca of South Africa. Today,its greatest competitor among European languages is English and both languages, togetherwith nine African languages, belong to the eleven official languages of the postapartheidSouth African State. The right of every South African to use the language of his or her choiceis now embedded in the constitution. However, the situation of having eleven officiallanguages is truly unique world-wide. One of the most pressing question is whether there is anecessity to agree on a single language as the official one, with the other ten languagesreceiving an equally high status, in order to support the current process of nation-building? Ifso, should it be English, Afrikaans or one of the African languages? [...]1 Ngugi wa Thiong'o. Decolonising the Mind, page 4

Make sure your garage has latest safety systems
Updated On: Apr 15 2013 11:01:30 AM CDT
(NewsUSA) - With the development of the American garage came the automatic garage door opener. Once a luxury, the garage door opener has become a true necessity -- operating in more than 35 million households across the country and relied upon to open and close the largest and heaviest moving object in the home -- the garage door.
As garage door openers made their way into American homes, laws were enacted to ensure the safety of those using them. For example, legislation was passed requiring all new garage door openers manufactured after 1992 to possess added safety features. The law mandated that all garage door openers be manufactured and sold with an external protection system otherwise known as infrared sensors or photo eyes.
Garage door openers made prior to 1993 came equipped with force-sensing safety systems that would only reverse the door after having made contact with the object in the door's path. These older models are safe and reliable if installed, tested and maintained properly. However, the vast majority of these older units are not equipped with photo eyes, which trigger the garage door to stop before making contact and then reverse from closing when an obstruction is sensed in the opening, as opposed to the old system that only reversed after making contact with the obstruction, person, child or pet standing in the way.

MPG Media Contacts ends £4m dispute with Channel 5
MPG Media Contacts has ended its trading dispute with Channel 5, paving the way for its clients such as National Express and Camelot to start advertising on the network again next year.
Alan Brydon: head of investment at MPG Media Contacts
It is understood that although Channel 5 and MPG Media Contacts have not been trading throughout 2012, the two parties have carried on talking to each other through the year in a bid to come to a resolution.
An agreement has now been reached and MPG Media Contacts clients are expected to resume advertising on the Channel 5 network from January. In 2011, MPG Media Contacts spent £4.3m with Channel 5, according to Ebiquity.
Alan Brydon, head of investment at MPG Media Contacts, said: "At the end of last year, they made a business decision and we made a business decision. Pretty much all the way through we have carried on talking.
"Over the second half of the year, we've had a bit more of a conversation. Our view was 'can our clients' best interests be served by working for them?'. We like to think while we have not been trading, it has been amicable and grown-up on both sides."
Brydon said MPG Media Contacts and Channel 5 have now come to an agreement which works for both parties.
Planners and buyers at MPG Media Contacts will start discussing advertising opportunities on the Channel 5 network with their clients in the coming weeks.
It emerged in January that MPG Media Contacts and Channel 5 had failed to come to a deal. Their row was the only major TV trading dispute this year.
Since the buying points have become more consolidated, it has become increasingly difficult for media agency groups to fall out with any of the TV broadcasters.
Nick Bampton, sales director of Channel 5, said: "We are pleased to be working with MPG Media Contacts again and look forward to working closely with them and their clients."Follow @MaisieMcCabe

Fair Trade is a tangible contribution to the fight against poverty, climate change and the economic crisis that hit hardest on the world's most vulnerable populations. A third of the world's population lives on less than two dollars a day. The global crisis confirms the need for a fair and sustainable economy locally and globally. Trade must benefit the most vulnerable and deliver sustainable livelihoods by developing opportunities for small and disadvantaged producers.
The international, independent FSC label ensures that raw materials for wood and paper products come from responsibly managed forests, with all the attention for the people of the forest dependent. All major environmental and development organizations recommend FSC. This makes FSC unique. Therefore Parthen has chosen to work with FSC paper and contributes to the protection of forests worldwide!

November 24, 2014
BRISTOL, Conn. (AP) - Pitching sensation Mo'ne Davis' latest start has drawn record television ratings for the Little League World Series.
ESPN said Thursday her team's game earned the highest ever preliminary rating for the event on the network. The 8-1 loss by Davis' Philadelphia squad to Las Vegas on Wednesday night received a 3.4 overnight rating, up 143 percent from the corresponding game last year.
The 13-year-old Davis rose to a national celebrity after becoming the first girl to pitch a shutout in her team's LLWS opener. She was removed after just 2 1-3 innings Wednesday, allowing three runs and striking out six.
The game drew a 16.3 rating in Las Vegas and a 14.9 in Philadelphia.
Ratings represent the percentage of homes with televisions tuned to a program. Overnights measure the country's largest markets.
