| Lights Off For Earth Hour |
| 2008-03-04 20:21:28 |
All this time I’ve been writing about anything that gives light. For a change, I wanna talk about turning the lights off for a significant end. Yes, turn off the lights for Earth Hour. The tallest edifice in North America, the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, the 110 storey Sears Tower in Chicago, will switch off its lights for an hour, as will public buildings in Atlanta and Phoenix, said the World Wildlife Fund. What’s more, buildings in Dublin, Manila, Toronto and Tel Aviv will also i...

| The Magic Of LEDs |
| 2008-02-18 23:37:11 |
Best All-new Production Vehicle. Best Chicago Auto Show World Introduction. These were two labels attached to the Dodge Challenger during the Chicago Auto Show's Consumer’s Pick Awarding. We all know that the Dodge Challenger is a five-seater, two-door coupe that is capable of going zero to 100 miles per hour in just a couple of seconds. But there’s one more thing. Yeah, there must be another great factor that makes it one of the best vehicles ever introduced this year. According to de...

| Late Date At The Planetarium |
| 2008-02-14 02:04:12 |
Today is the Day of Love and you might be thinking just what kind of gimmick you would have to do to make your significant other’s day be extra special. If you have not booked early, all restos may already be filled and if you do try to be a walk-in at shows or any restos, you just may get disappointed. I’m sure playing a tune with your Jeep parts would not something memorable for your partner. Now you may want to consider a late Valentine’s date instead. See, if you are in Florida, you ma...

| Bright As The Sun |
| 2008-02-13 03:53:18 |
If you’re still locked in the idea that only the sun shines the brightest, well it’s time to explore and see a new world of light! Available now in the market is the HID lamp. HID stands for High Intensity Discharge (HID), a technology in which the filament of a light bulb is being replaced with a capsule of gas. Whew, I know this might sound quite complicated for non-scientists but let’s still give it a try. In HID, light generates after passing a current through wate...

| Auto Lights Regulated But Not Often Enforced |
| 2008-02-07 20:13:01 |
Just like the strict standards imposed on the manufacture of KYB AGX adjustable shock absorber, auto lights are well-regulated. But sad to say the standards made are often not enforced.As I surf the Net, I found a nice query to ponder on…Question: I want to know if drivers are required by law to turn off fog and auxiliary lights when they are required to dim their headlights. If they are, why is the law not being enforced? Are the very bright and blue tinted lights legal? If not, why isn’t t...

| Fantastic FANTASTIK |
| 2008-02-06 18:24:33 |
One thing I love about my car is that just like light, its use doesn’t end in taking me to my destination. It also assures that I arrive there filled with fun and enjoyment - as if I played with my favorite toy. Just like light that upon falling into a prism bursts into multivariate colors thus going beyond its purpose of brightening the road. Cars and lights combined equals FANTASY plus air equals FANTASTIK. “Imagine a portable fan that cools you down while ent...

| In the Land of the Midnight Sun |
| 2008-01-31 19:57:42 |
Norway. That usually comes to my mind whenever somebody asks me about mushy stuff like "Given the privilege to choose, where do you wanna go for a vacation?"I'll drive my Acura to Nordkapp, for sure my palette and paintbrush won't hurt my Acura Legend cargo liner and then I'd capture the famous midnight sun on canvass. Yeah, that's what I want to do. Call it romanticism. I call it worship. The midnight sun is the phenomenon in which, given fair weather, the sun is visible for 24 hours, meanin...

| Laser Pointer |
| 2008-01-25 18:42:40 |
We often see this cute little thing in high-powered guns in movies and in real life. I think they use laser pointers to make their shots accurate. Laser pointers are also used in office meetings and presentations. It produces a beam of red light that can reach up to a thousand meters. Aside from the red-beamed laser pointers, there are different kinds of lasers as well. This tiny and handy stuff is an exceptional masterpiece and as vibrant as a car’s taillight. Have you ever wondered how laser...

| Be Equipped With Flashlights…All The Time! |
| 2008-01-17 19:50:50 |
Flashlights… one of the most important things you should have while traveling on the road. It won’t hurt if we try to practice this habit every time we drive at night especially when we take long road trips. Three years ago, I think it was during the summertime if I’m not mistaken, I took a day trip going to my hometown, and it was like 600 miles away from where I lived in my apartment in the city. I was accompanied by a friend who lives near our town, so I was obliged to give him a ride b...

| The Firefly’s Amazing Light |
| 2008-01-14 19:25:19 |
When the sun seems to crawl slowly down to the horizon to rest after another lovely day, the fireflies resurface during the cold dark night. The picture of a wonderful fairytale lies in the glowing bodies of these magnificent creatures. Where on earth does the firefly get its glow? Are they as dazzling as my fender flares? I didn’t have any clue about this nature’s wonder until I researched about fireflies last night. Talk about me being a science enthusiast! Anyway, here are some details ab...

| Malfunctioning Headlights Should Illuminate The Gov’t |
| 2008-01-08 03:07:11 |
If you’re one of the common motorists on the roads, this scenario might be too familiar… Aaron David Ward writes: A state trooper recently ticketed me for a nonworking driver’s side headlight. He ignored the sport-utility-vehicle exceeding the speed limit, made a u-turn and pulled me over. Then the trooper was kind enough to provide the paperwork that I would need to get the ticket dismissed. This kind of routine traffic stop happens every day and is a prime example of how we are...

| Glow Sticks |
| 2007-12-28 12:57:10 |
Where does a glow stick get its light? Who on earth invented this vibrant thing? Glow sticks are absolutely cool, and I don’t give a damn whoever is responsible for this. But I tell you, he or she is a pure genius. Anyway, every time I hang out at techno bars or some rave parties, I can always find glow sticks around the venue. I mean, wherever you go, if its rave party, glow sticks are constant! I find it so sexy for some girls who try to dance with some glow sticks in their hands. And the wa...

| Left Or Right? |
| 2007-12-18 20:00:59 |
If you want to turn into your driveway, you would surely tell motorists behind you that you are going to turn right or left. And you can send that information to them with the help of turn signal lights. Although using the turn signal is pretty easy as you only need to move a lever. Most of us do not know how it really works.So I did a little bit of research and I came up with this helpful article from How Stuff Works.According to the article, there is some cool stuff going on when w...

| Color Kinetics’ for Automotive Lighting |
| 2007-04-14 03:42:49 |
I love flashing bright colors and I love it when my car’s imbued with them. I heard over the grapevine that Ford has collaborated with Color Kinetics in a global licensing deal that allows “dynamic personalization” of automotive interiors and exteriors through (you guessed it) intelligent LED lighting. I absolutely have to pick these nifties on the way on my next car shopping and accessorize my way into full-colored bliss. Clouded in colors while you’re on the tracks seems fantastic. And...

| Neon Lights love |
| 2007-01-06 01:54:29 |
The firework that went off at the first minutes of this year were just plain spectacular. I have no idea how they can pack hundreds and thousands of sparks and color into tiny, folded pieces of scratch. It's like an instant shower of stars. Never mind the fact that I almost had asthma attack from all the smoke, LOL. I loved those neon lights. A friend took me once to a racing event and I remember liking those neon lights that make the cars' bottom glow. I dug up a few information about them, and...
