Los Angeles Kings (11-6-0) at Buffalo Sabres (3-15-1), 7 p.m.
(SportsNetwork.com) - The Los Angeles Kings will try to match their longest winning streak of the season when they visit the Buffalo Sabres for Tuesday's battle at First Niagara Center.
The Kings recently went 3-1-0 during a four-game homestand and won the final two tests of the residency, beating Buffalo and Vancouver in the City of Angels. L.A. is aiming for its second three-game winning streak of the season on Tuesday after previously going 3-0 from Oct. 9-13.
Buffalo visited the Kings last week, dropping a 2-0 decision Thursday night at the Staples Center. Jonathan Quick recorded the 26th shutout of his career for Los Angeles, while Mike Richards and Anze Kopitar supplied the goals.
Despite that setback, the Sabres still have six wins in the last nine games of this series. Buffalo also has claimed four straight on home ice against the Kings and is 10-1-0 with a tie over the past 12 meetings in Western New York.
Buffalo, however, has lost two straight and six of its last seven games and is last in the NHL with just seven points on the season. After dropping the 2-0 decision Thursday in L.A., the Sabres were dealt a 6-2 loss the following night in Anaheim. Ryan Getzlaf recorded his first career hat trick to lead the Ducks to the rout over the visiting Sabres.
Mikhail Grigorenko tallied both goals for Buffalo, which trailed the Ducks by a 4-1 score after one period. Ryan Miller allowed six goals on 34 shots and was replaced by Jonas Enroth at the start of the third period.
"That's the way you feel after these kinds of games. You start to give a team an advantage, a team that just beat us in our building by six goals. You give them an offensive advantage right off the start. It's not the way to go," said Miller.
After going 1-2-0 on its recent three-game swing, Buffalo will aim for its first home win of the season on Tuesday. The Sabres are 0-8-1 as the host so far and they'll play two straight and six of their next eight games on home ice.
The Kings, meanwhile, are 4-3-0 on the road and are kicking off a four-game road trip tonight. L.A. also is set to play all three New York-area teams during the swing and will continue the swing with Thursday's meeting against the Islanders.
Los Angeles closed its recent homestand in impressive fashion, slamming the Canucks by a 5-1 score on Saturday. Tyler Toffoli notched two goals and an assist to lead the Kings to the rout over Vancouver.
Mike Richards had a goal and two assists, while Justin Williams and Jordan Nolan accounted for the other two tallies. Quick turned aside 25-of-26 shots for Los Angeles in the win.
"We were solid. We had a really good start. We were playing against a team that has been playing very well, but we were able to get up a couple [of goals] and keep the lead," said Los Angeles head coach Darryl Sutter.
Kings forwards Kyle Clifford (undisclosed) and Jarret Stoll (upper body) are questionable for Tuesday's game. Stoll has sat out the last two games, while Clifford was hurt in Saturday's win against the Canucks.
Sabres defenseman Christian Ehrhoff is questionable for Tuesday after sitting out Friday's game in Anaheim with a lower-body injury.
Quick is expected to get the start in net and is 3-0-0 with a 1.78 goals against average in four career outings against the Sabres. Miller is 4-1-1 with a 2.38 GAA in seven lifetime appearances versus L.A.

Are there enough of us interested in JavaScript who don't already know it that we could organize some kind of classes?
I would love to be able to do five or six weeks of "Every Tuesday Afternoon" or something like that.
I was pretty smug up until about last year, thinking I'd dodged a bullet by not learning JavaScript, which was looking like the Latin of web languages. But it is looking more and more like it's going to be an AJAX world, and maybe it would be good to learn to do all of this stuff, correctly, now.
Anyone want to join me?

Block Help
I have a block with the casting number GM 14010201. Do you know what size and year this engine is?
Via email
Frank Martinez
According to our MSA-1 books, it looks like you have a 305ci small-block that was built between 1980-84. If you haven't heard of MSA-1, they offer complete books that list detailed information based on the factory casting numbers and suffix codes. Check them out at msa-1.com.
Nova Love
I'm currently in New Jersey and finished reading through Chevy High and I'm in love with that Nova! I'm moving out to Los Angeles soon and need to hook up with [you] guys and I need to build a motor like that or better!
Via email
Since you didn't specify which Nova, we're going to assume you're checking out the latest issue with the 598ci big-block build for our '71 drag radial Nova. That engine is impressive to say the least and by far the wildest big-block we've ever produced. On that note, we're at most drag racing events on the West Coast, so be sure to stop by and say hello.
The Vitals
Thanks for the great picture and write up of my '69 Corvette in the June 2010 issue (pg. 80, "The Vitals"). Just one issue though; the engine numbers were transposed. Believe me, I'd LOVE to have a 472ci mill, but the number should read "427." Again, thanks. It's always great to open a magazine and see your own car!
Via email
Ken Johnson
Oops, sorry about that Ken. Still, we're glad to know you're happy and we're even happier that you took the time to submit your ride-a really nice one at that!
Unique Impala
Hi there! I'm checking to see if you guys might be interested in a FWD project that I've been working on and should come to fruition here soon. Project car is an '05 Chevy Impala base model currently with a 3400 LA1 running 16.8 at 82.84 mph. I'm pulling the engine and trans and swapping it for a supercharged LS powerplant.
The engine will be tuned by Intense Racing in Columbus and I'm expecting to make somewhere in the area of 280 hp at the wheels, but I'll be shooting for 300 hp. I know it's FWD, but it's a Chevy so I thought what the hey.
Via email
Will Anderson
Your Impala is a bit different than what we're used to seeing. Even so, be sure to keep us posted and send us images after it's built and let us know how your build turned out. Good luck!
Got something to say? We'll make you famous and put your letter here. Email us at email@example.com

Paint It At Home DVD
As many of you know, we tend to visit most forums that feature everything Bow Tie related. In this instance, one of our stomping grounds is nastyz28.com, which specifically caters to second-gen Camaros. It's there we met Mark Eckert, who owns and operates Hammerhead Racing and Hammerhead Kustoms out of Edgewater, Florida. This is a talented guy who does it all, including building race cars and handling paint and bodywork. If you're interested in learning how to paint for yourself, Mark offers a two-disc DVD set for just $34.99 (four hours of video footage) that shows you the basics, explaining a number of topics to get you through the process. Don't expect to see a high-dollar film production; instead we're talking a no nonsense grassroots-style approach that really gives you a better perspective on how to paint.

(Sorry for the ugly scenery, I took these pictures when it was still really brown and bleh outside!)
I started this one back in April…and I was so excited and gung ho about it for about a week..and then I felt kind of eh about it…and now I like it again. It's my cycle of quilt love. This one is from the Strawberry Fields line by Fig Tree Quilts…made with a jelly roll. Now that its done I wish I would have made it a Queen size…but that would have meant buying 2 jelly rolls and I just couldn't will myself to spend $80 bucks for it at the time.
It's a really soft & pretty color combo..these photos don't do it justice seeing as how the background was still brown and ugly when I took these photos….and there is bird poop in almost every picture. See?
Dang bird poop.
You can find Strawberry Fields here, here, and here. You can find the pattern here, or here.

While the pound-for-pound list is completely subjective, it's still a topic that comes up often and holds weight with many fans, journalists and fighters in the industry.
So with Silva now relinquishing that spot for the first time in years, who takes over the slot as the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world?
"Jon Jones," UFC president Dana White answered when asked that very question after the end of the UFC 162 post-fight press conference.

HSBC "lift" by Grey London
Agency: Grey London
Rating: 5.0
By John Reynolds, marketingmagazine.co.uk, Monday, 17 December 2012 08:46AM
The nominations for Sports Personality of the Year were dominated by athletes from the 2012 London Olympics, with 11 of the 12 nominees up for the main prize from the GB Olympic and Paralympic teams.
As well as 2012 marking a year of excellence on the sporting field, there were some memorable brand tie-ups for sporting stars off the field.
Here Marketing charts its top tie-ups, according to a number of sport sponsorship experts.
Nigel Currie, executive director of BrandRapport, said:"The media domination from the Olympics meant each of the Olympic stars were obviously going to be used extensively by brands. A lot of the Olympic sponsors created teams of 'ambassadors' and within their teams there were a few "stand-out campaigns."
He added "Brands realise the power of leading athletes to attract sports stars. The high media profile that sport stars have and their popularity with certain markets make them very attractive to leading brands."
BBC Sports Personality of the Year was watched by 10.6m viewers, though this lagged behind Strictly Come Dancing, which pulled in 10.7m viewers also on Sunday.

Everyone knows how this works, if I missed any good ones let me know by commenting below!
10. Didn't know about the spill because the teleprompters were on vacation.
9. Someone challenged him to see how many rounds of golf he can play before people get pissed.
8. Didn't want to act until his team created an oil spill graphic that incorporated his logo
7. Was too busy waterboarding Rahm Emmanuel for answers on why his cabinet calls him President Jenga.
6. Didn't know where to go because "Caution Slippery Floor" signs wont stand on water.
5. Wasn't sure it was actually that bad after seeing gulf residents with "this is what change looks like" signs.
4. Clean up the ocean? Pssh he was just waiting for the iPhone to release the app for that.
3. Wanted to test Keith Olbermann's theory that rednecks would avoid the beach if the ocean was black.
2. Hasn't cared about oil since Air Force One was retrofitted to run on the magic of the 2008 election.
1. Being asked "did you plug the hole yet daddy" at least 50 times while being president was actually an item on his "bucket list."

Released one year to the day after the 1995 Million Man March, in which a million African-American men marched peacefully in Washington, D.C. in a bid for greater unity and understanding, Spike Lee's Get On the Bus follows a group of black men who take a charter bus from Los Angeles to the rally in the nation's capital and watches as they interact and air their personal issues and concerns. George (Charles S. Dutton) is the organizer of the trip and de facto leader of the group. Evan Thomas (Thomas Jefferson Byrd) is a truck driver who travels to the march with his son (De'Aundre Bonds) chained to his belt by court order after the boy was arrested for petty theft. Kyle (Isaiah Washington) and Randall (Harry Lennix) are gay lovers who take no small amount of abuse from their fellow passengers. Gary (Roger Guenveur Smith) is the product of a mixed-race marriage who could pass for white but sees himself as black; he's also a cop, which does little to endear him to his peers. Flip (Andre Braugher) is an actor who seems more concerned with getting his next film role than the larger issues of the march. Jamal (Gabriel Casseus) is a good-natured young Muslim trying to lead a righteous life to make up for his violent past as a gang member. A film student (Hill Harper) is capturing the trip on videotape, and Jeremiah (Ossie Davis) sits in the back, reflecting on the struggles of African-Americans in the past and present. Financed by a private group of 15 black American men (among them Will Smith and Wesley Snipes), Get On the Bus speaks less of a single political goal than of the need for black men to set aside their differences to work for their common good. While the film falls short of openly criticizing Million Man March organizer Louis Farrakhan, it does present debate about Farrakhan's ideals and statements, ultimately coming to the conclusion that whoever brought this group together is less important than the fact that they came together in peace and brotherhood.~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

In 1968, my father, Jerry Winston Christian, bought his dream car-a '65 Corvette equipped with a 396 and a close-ratio four-speed. Dad often told stories of the "awesome power" the car had and how it was the fastest thing on the road from 0 to 115 mph. Dad was a Michigan-certified master mechanic, and he performed all of his own engine and trans work.
After eight years of ownership, he was forced to sell the '65. My mother was very jealous of the car, and they often quarreled about it. Dad never really got over her not accepting the Vette, and my parents ultimately divorced.
My Dad suffered one financial setback after another through the '80s, all while raising four kids. The '90s were no better, bringing a second divorce and further hardship. Then, after 30 years working in both a steel mill and at his auto-repair business, he retired. He never made a profit on his business, often working for little or no pay, just to make sure people had safe cars to drive.
Living on his small pension, all he had left were stories of his old '65 Corvette. He was always preaching about the engineering feats embodied in that car, how there was a purpose for every piece of equipment.
Although he had given up hope of ever owning another Corvette, he raised my sister, Malissa, and my three brothers-Randy, Gerald, and Mike-to be Corvette lovers and enthusiasts.
Dad and I didn't have a great relationship when I was a teenager. He worked alot, my parents had divorced, and I was very rebellious. Maybe it's not surprising that when we reconnected, it was through our mutual love of Corvettes.
When I bought my first Corvette, a rough '73 with a 350 and a four-speed, I couldn't wait to tell him. We immediately set about fixing the car, installing a new clutch, rear spring, door parts, window regulators, interior trim, distributor, cap, wires, plugs, carburetor, and hood-release cables. We were working in a garage that was too small, on a car that had been severely neglected, but we were having a great time.
Not long after that, in July 2002, my paternal grandmother passed away. Dad was heartbroken, but when the grieving process had worked itself out, he decided to use part of his inheritance to find a nice used Corvette to drive and enjoy.
He found what he was looking for in a black-on-black '96 LT1 with 138,000 miles. He studied the car inside and out, working his way through the factory service manuals to familiarize himself with every detail. He was constantly amazed by the technical advancements incorporated into the later C4s.
By this time, my brother Randy had a raucous '75 Vette ("Lucy"), and I had a raunchy '73 ("Brandy"). One day, while the three of us were driving the back roads of lower central Michigan, Dad came zipping past just to show us the true power of the LT1. That sure was embarrassing!
In the summer of 2006, I purchased a new six-speed LS2 Vette. That September, Dad and I drove our cars to the annual Mid America Motorworks Corvette Funfest in Effingham, Illinois. He had my youngest brother, Gerald, with him and I had my wife, Robin, with me. We absorbed all we could in two days, taking lots of pictures and buying plenty of souvenirs.
Dad had plans to redo much of the '96 LT1. He had purchased a new front bumper, left front fender, weatherstripping, distributor, carpeting, taillight lenses, running-light lenses, and many other small, often-overlooked parts. He also purchased a set of C5 Z06 wheels with new rubber to replace the originals.
For much of his adult life, Dad suffered with high blood pressure, a condition that caused numerous heart-related problems. On July 27, 2007, he died in his sleep as a result of heart failure. I drove his Corvette as the lead car in the funeral procession, with Randy following in his own '73.

Romeo and Juliet was Kenneth MacMillan's first full-evening ballet, and, from its premiere in 1965, has been one of The Royal Ballet's signature works, popular all over the world. At the beginning of the ballet MacMillan's crowd scenes teem with life and color. It's a pleasure to be able to follow the characters created by members of the corps de ballet as they portray the townspeople, market traders and servants of the rival Montagues and Capulets. However, once Romeo and Juliet meet, everything else on stage can only be scenery for their story. Three great pas de deux: the meeting in the ballroom, the balcony scene and the morning after the wedding, eloquently convey the narrative: adolescent shyness and fascination; the headlong rush of love declared, and the grief of parting. The final scene in the tomb, a pas de deux with a lifeless partner, is devastating. The Royal Ballet has performed Romeo and Juliet well over 400 times, yet each performance is subtly different. Every pairing in the title roles brings fresh nuances to the young lovers' characters, while the wealth of supporting roles, from the exuberant trio of harlots in the town square to the murderous rage of Tybalt, offers scope for dancers throughout the Company. Nicholas Georgiadis's earthy Renaissance designs, with some of the original details recently restored, are the perfect backdrop

While Apple just announced the news, there are already multiple reports leaking about why he's gone.
In short, Forstall's abrasive personality combined with a series of high profile errors seem to have done him in.
Jessica Lessin at The Wall Street Journal says, Forstall's departure from Apple was "not his decision." She also says he was clashing with Apple executives recently.
Forstall has long been reported to be a decisive figure inside Apple. A year ago Bloomberg BusinessWeek wrote a profile of Forstall, and our main takeaway was: Forstall is a polarizing, political, "a-hole," who has forced out a number of Apple's executives because they hated working with him. He's also a hard-working genius, and a mini-Steve Jobs.
oh oh.. the ship seems to be sinking
Btw, this guy was one of the people who thought would have a really good chance of replacing Steve Jobs due to his similar attitudes and perfectionist approach. Doesn't seem he will be leading anything right now

When I learned Spanish in school, I was taught to never say ¿Qué? when I needed someone to repeat something they just said. Rather I was taught to say ¿Cómo? Later, my wife taught me to say ¿Mande? as an even more polite question. But some people don't seem to understand what I'm getting at. Occasionally, they will try to clarify by saying "¿Qué?", which I'd always understood as rude. (Maybe I just look like a rude American or maybe the question isn't as disrespectful as I had learned.)
Am I safe in most situations (where I don't know the country of origin of the other speaker) in using ¿Cómo? (Trust me, this is a very common problem for me.)

Nitrous oxide has long been a mainstay of the performance world, but we haven't seen too many bottle-fed late-model Corvettes. It's so easy to drop a blower onto an engine that many enthusiasts simply go with forced induction for the quick and easy power boost.
Ed Miklavcic has been around the high-performance block more than a few times, however, and after experimenting with turbocharged imports and supercharged Mustangs, he decided natural aspiration was the way to go-with a healthy nitrous system on tap for on-demand power.
"I grew up modifying cars," says the 38-year-old owner/operator of Bissell's Hideaway, a water park and RV resort in Ontario, Canada. "I started with the imports and blew up a few turbo engines. I tried the SVT Mustang, but kept throwing blower belts."
Frustrated with forced induction, he finally turned to the Corvette.
"I liked that the Z06 had a lot of cubic inches and a low curb weight," Miklavcic says. "That's a great recipe for speed, and I've never regretted my decision. It's the best car I've ever owned."
While experimenting with nitrous was in his plan at the outset, Miklavcic managed to get the car running low 11s at 131 mph, with 2.1-second 60-foot times, in naturally aspirated form. It was quick, no doubt about it, but Miklavcic had a goal to chase: "I want to run 9s," he says bluntly.
Achieving that goal would risk damage to the stock engine, thanks to the LS7's hypereutectic pistons, so a purpose-built engine combination was required-one with a rock-solid, all-forged rotating assembly suitable for nitrous use. For that, Miklavcic turned to Katech, in the industrial 'burbs of Detroit.
The company renowned for building racing-strength Corvettes tore down the factory LS7 engine and completely rebuilt it. The bottom end includes:
Callies Dragonslayer forged-steel crankshaft
Callies H-beam forged-steel connecting rods
Katech LS7 nitrous pistons and rings, with diamond-like-carbon-coated (DLC) wristpins
Lingenfelter stud girdle, main-cap studs, and cylinder-head studs
Katech Torquer LS7 camshaft, high-speed lifters, high-lift valvesprings, and titanium retainers
The great-breathing stock LS7 heads were reinstalled atop the strengthened short-block, and a stout C5-R timing chain was added to connect the crankshaft to the new Katech cam. Straddling the heads is a FAST LSXR 102mm intake manifold that was finished to complement the exterior. The engine also wears Katech's aluminum valve covers (painted black) and coil-relocation kit. Blowing through a set of Kooks long-tube headers, the engine made 520 rear-wheel horsepower without nitrous and 701 horses at the Tarmac with the giggle gas engaged.
But nitrous is what this combo is all about, and the system on Miklavcic's Z represents hundreds of hours of custom work, including hardware design and installation, wiring, and tuning. The setup is based largely on Nitrous Express (NX) components, with highlights that include the following:
Carbon-fiber nitrous bottle mounted in the rear storage compartment
NANO system (nitrogen-assisted nitrous oxide)
Remote bottle opener
NX direct-port components and billet fuel rails
Twin purge lines
NOS progressive activation controller
NOS LCD touch-screen control interface
Nitrous Outlet stand-alone fuel system

UFC heavyweight Junior Dos Santos appeared on Mondays "The MMA Hour" with Ariel Helwani ahead of his title fight Saturday against heavyweight champion Cain Velasquez on Oct. 19 in Houston, Texas. JDS says with four months training (one more than his usual camp) he could beat either of Klitschko brothers, Wladimir or Vitali.
"Im a boxing guy," said dos Santos. "I love to box with my training partners and everything but now everybody is saying this, everybody wants to fight with boxing guys. Its become not sincere. When I say that, Im sincere."
"I think if they give me four months to get prepared, I can beat them. In the beginning of all my camps, I do just boxing. I love to train boxing and I think I have enough skills in boxing. I know how to see a good fight. Four months, thats what I need."
"I did talk to Dana but just a little bit once. It wasnt very serious. Next time, maybe Ill do that."

The Mississippi State men's basketball team had trouble getting its shots to fall on Saturday.
It showed up once again on the scoreboard.
The Bulldogs (7-19, 2-12) fell to the Vanderbilt Commodores (11-15, 5-9) 72-31 Saturday afternoon inside Humphrey Coliseum to extend their 12-game losing streak.
"Every time we come back home, it's a struggle," MSU junior guard Jalen Steele said. "When you come back home, a team's supposed to play better at home, but for some reason for us, it just goes down."
The Bulldogs hadn't lost 12-straight games since 1955 when they lost 14 and they haven't lost 12-straight Southeastern Conference games since losing 16 from Feb. 4, 1981-Jan. 23 1982.
The 31 points by MSU is the lowest of the season. The Bulldogs only scored 36 against Missouri earlier in the season. It is also the lowest point total for MSU since the shot clock was introduced during the 1985-86 season.
"This has happened to us twice now here against Vanderbilt and at home against Missouri," State head coach Rick Ray said.
The Bulldogs missed their first 11 field goals to start the game. Trivante Bloodman's layup with 8:50 remaining in the opening half was the first field goal of the day for MSU.
"Our guys get wrapped up with their own shots and when their shots are not going down then we just don't do a very good job with the rest of the game," Ray said.
MSU made a season-low seven field goals for the whole game. They shot just under 20 precent for the contest.
"It boils down to the fact that Vanderbilt and Missouri make open shots," Ray said. "We fail to knock down open shots."
The Bulldogs were 6-of-6 from the free-throw line before hitting their first field goal.
MSU tied it up at 2-2 early in the game on two Gavin Ware free throws. The Commodores then went on a 13-0 run to take the lead for good.
Kevin Bright knocked down a 3-pointer at the 17:04 mark to spark the run for Vanderbilt. Fred Thomas of the Bulldogs knocked down a pair of free throws with 10:49 remaining in the first half to end the run.
The Commodores took a 37-17 halftime lead. MSU shot only 4-of-22 from the field for 18 percent in the first half.
"That was simply a case of us getting off to a good start and really never giving them an opportunity to recover," Vanderbilt head coach Kevin Stallings said. "I thought our guys were very sharp with our attention to the game plan."
The Bulldogs were 0-of-11 from behind the 3-point line, and didn't hit their first 3-pointer until Bloodman knocked down a shot behind the arc with 17:39 left in the second half.
Vanderbilt out-rebounded Mississippi State 51-17. The Commodores also grabbed 21 offensive boards to three for the Bulldogs.
"They just did an unbelievable job on the offensive glass," Ray said. "The 20 offensive rebounds are totally unacceptable."
The 17 rebounds are the fewest for MSU this season and the minus-34 rebounding deficit is the worst of the season.
"They just out hustled and played us," Ware said. "We weren't very competitive. As we continue to play, something's got to change. We have to develop more."
Vanderbilt increased its lead in the second half and held a 39-point lead at 67-28 with 4:45 left in the game. It was Vanderbilt's biggest lead of the game at the time.
The Bulldogs were coming off a 64-56 loss to Alabama where they had a chance to win the ballgame in the late going.
"I really thought that we would come here and play well after our performance against Alabama," Ray said. "I thought we really played well against Alabama in all facets of the games except the turnovers. To come out here and play this way against Vanderbilt is disappointing."
The Commodores were led by Bright's 15 points. Rod Odom scored 13 and Sheldon Jeter scored 11 off the bench.
Steele led MSU with nine points.
The Bulldogs are back in action on Wednesday when they travel to Lexington, Ken. Tipoff for the Kentucky game is scheduled for 7 p.m. and can be seen on the SEC Network.

Do you like rear spoilers on a Corvette because of the way they look, or the way they function? The answer may depend upon how fast you're going. Though the rear spoiler has become one of the Vette's most noticeable attributes, it serves a scientific and safety-minded purpose, too.
According to the applied laws of aerodynamics, while you drive, air is forced over the rear spoiler, creating downforce upon your car's rear end. This downforce transfers to the rear tires and allows them to have a stronger grip upon the road. The faster you're going, the more downforce is created. That's why a spoiler or wing is just good-looking at 30 mph, but critical to your car's handling at 130 mph.
This month, we're bringing you our "Official Guide to Corvette Rear Wings and Spoilers." Advanced technologies allow aftermarket companies to manufacture these products using a variety of materials and methods-carbon-fiber, resin-transfer molds, fiberglass, and more. In addition to great style and looks, many of them will offer you dramatic improvements in downforce and stability, as compared with the OE piece.
Because choosing a rear-deck spoiler for your Corvette is a personal choice, we didn't favor one of these manufacturers over the others. Instead, we listed them all and allowed them to state their case. All that's left is for you to decide which of them is right for your car.

Brief description: The C5 World Challenge 1-inch spoiler was designed in conjunction with GM Motorsports to meet the SCCA World Challenge "rules for the moment," which allowed a rear spoiler to help "trip" the air off the back of the car without causing a great amount of drag. It worked exactly the way it was supposed to and was included in the ground-effects kit offered by GM Performance Parts. (While the spoiler was eventually replaced with a wing, the SCCA failed to remove the spoiler from the rule books, so it was quickly learned that using both the wing and the spoiler increased the flow of the air under the wing and gave even better downforce.)
The C5 World Challenge wing provides even better aero balance and tuneability for the Corvette. The wing is made from carbon-fiber and is built using an autoclave, along with a vacuum-bag-molding process. It comes with mounting brackets integral to the wing body. There is a separate chassis-mounting kit available, which mounts the wing to the rear-chassis crossmember. With this wing-along with the front splitter, undertray, and vented hood-you will have a very broad range of tuning capability.
If you want a wing for looks and not performance, our C5 deck-mounted unit may be the best-looking one on the market. It can be ordered in fiberglass or clear carbon, and mounts on the deck with specially designed brackets that do not require drilling. This wing has not been tested in the wind tunnel, so we won't make any performance claims . . . but it does look good!
Our C6 rear spoiler (21/2 inches high) is designed to trip the air off the back of the car. The clear carbon version is built using an autoclave for maximum strength and minimum weight. It is also available in fiberglass. (A C6 4-inch spoiler is currently being built and will be available after March 30.)
The C6 World Challenge 72-inch carbon-fiber wing is the ultimate Corvette wing. It's built using data developed for the Corvette Racing C6.R and has been resized to work with the World Challenge aero and engine package. It outperforms the C5 wing by producing less drag and more downforce, along with a wider range of tuneability, when used with our front splitter, undertray, and louvered hood.

CHICAGO Getting stranded at an airport once meant enduring hours of boredom in a kind of travel purgatory with nothing to eat but fast food. These days, it can seem more like passing through the gates of Shangri-La to find spas, yoga studios, luxury shopping and restaurant menus crafted by celebrity chefs in terminals with calming, sleek design.
Stung by airline bankruptcies and mergers, more U.S. airports are hunting for alternative revenue streams by hiring top design firms to transform once chaotic and dreary way stations into places of Zen-like tranquillity and luxury where people actually want to get stuck — and spend money. This winter, airports are putting what one designer calls "terminal bliss" on display in hopes of drawing in higher passenger numbers and revenue.
"It's classy, it's very classy. ... It makes you feel good about the layover," said Marty Rapp, 70, who was getting rosy cheeked recently with the help of a large glass of merlot under ice-crystal chandeliers at Chicago-O'Hare's Ice Bar.
Airport redesign has been accelerating in the U.S. over the past 10 years, fueled by a combination of things like an airline industry beset by bankruptcies and consolidation that is less able to shoulder as much of the operating costs for city-owned airports through landing fees and gate rental. More revenue from better retail and dining helps make up the shortfall.
At the same time, travelers are becoming more savvy and want more than just to get from A to B. The airport has become almost a destination in its own right, a place worthy of stopping off for a while for a little shopping or pampering.
"There's the ability to go swimming at some airports, there's the ability to actually perfect your golf swing at some airports, there is the ability to — it's not just getting a quick massage on your shoulders — it's almost really going to a spa in some cases," said Bill Hooper, an architect at global design firm Gensler, which has transformed airport terminals, including San Francisco's Terminal 2, where abundant natural light, art installations and cool club feel set a new benchmark for contemporary airport design.
The United States and Canada still lag behind Europe and Asia when it comes to the number of airports that are architectural gems and the array of unique offerings. Stockholm's Arlanda Airport has a wedding package where couples can tie the knot in the control tower balcony. And Seoul's Incheon International Airport is building a six-level terminal that will include a soaring glass-paneled ceiling giving passengers the feeling they are passing through a terrarium-like wonderland, complete with babbling brook, tropical plants and butterflies.
But American airports are catching up. Space Age-looking redevelopment at Denver International Airport slated to be finished by 2015 includes a Westin hotel and conference center with a rooftop pool and views of the Rockies. With an outdoor plaza for events and a fast new rail line, the airport hopes to be seen as an extension of downtown, about 23 miles away.
