| Dodge officially announces Challenger Drag Race Package at Mopar Mile-High Nationals | | 2008-07-15 07:29:00 | | This weekend, Dodge officially unveiled two Challenger Drag Race Package cars that made their inaugural runs down the 1/4 mile track in front of thousands of race fans at the Mopar Mile-High Nationals near Denver, CO. Based on the standard Challenger SRT8, each of the Drag Race Package cars features a completely stripped body that has the body sealer, sound deadener, and undercoat all removed. Additional components are also left out including the windshield wipers, HVAC system, air bags, rear seats, power steering, exhaust system, side-impact beams, rear bumper beam, and more. Further weight is saved by using composite and poycarbonate components, and overall a total of 1000 pounds has been shaved off the car.Additional changes include repositioning the engine for a better driveline angle, a slightly shortened wheelbase, a bolt-in crossmember, and solid engine mounts. Engine options include the 6.1L and 5.7L HEMI or the 5.9L Magnum Wedge. Mopar will build at least 100 of the cars to me | | By: Autoshows | | |

| | Mile Pie-Eyed Club: Drunk Duct Taped to his Seat | | 2008-04-25 02:34:41 | | Duct tape has many uses as you’ll know from jokes that have been hammered into the ground on a certain show set in a hunting lodge and based on the premise that men are, at the end of the day, basically stupid and that this observation contains enough material to mine for an eternity. In less family-friendly venues, duct-tape is most commonly used to seal the gobs of hostages to keep them from hollering for their freedom as they’re dumped into the trunk of a Cadillac. Your more sadistic baddies will let said hostage grow a moustache first, make sure that the tape covers it, and then, once in a soundproof room, inquire “What’s that you’re trying to say? I can’t quite hear you”, before ripping it off in one cruel tug and eliciting screams from the captive. But duct-tape is not just for villains. It can be a tool for good as well, and just today was employed to restrain a troublemaker on a flight from Hong Kong to Los Angeles.

| | AAA: Driving costs increased 1.9 cents per mile in the last year | | 2008-04-04 18:57:56 | | Every year, AAA runs a study which they refer to as "Your Driving Costs" which calculates the average costs of owning and operating the five top-selling models in three popular size classes: small, medium and large sedans. This year, the study indicates that the average cost of driving a passenger vehicle in the United States has increased 1.9 cents per mile in the last year; up to 54.1 cents per mile. High gas prices and additional taxes, among other things, have overcome the downward trend set by maintenance, full-coverage insurance and depreciation. Want to save some green? AAA suggests a pretty obvious option: consider choosing a smaller vehicle or a minivan over an SUV. The annual average cost of driving a small sedan is $6,320 per year, while a large sedan costs $9,769 per year. Your average minivan will run you $8,644 per year, compared to $10,448 for a four-wheel-drive mid-size SUV.

| | Took a Fall at Mile 23 | | 2008-03-23 20:21:49 | | Well, this marathon was about over, or so I thought. I had one more important thing to do -- get Salinda and Sadie down for a visit to see John. Salinda's friend had been here since Saturday morning, and needed to go home. So, as we're walking out the door, Salinda says, "Mom, you know _____ lives in _______, right?" Of course, I didn't know. I had never picked her up before and she goes to school in town, so I had budged plenty of time to take her home HERE IN TOWN. We left hurriedly because I figured we had time to get there and back. Already feeling the stress, the girls decided that this would be a good time to discuss how they didn't like their middle names that we gave them and other such issues which further annoyed me because I didn't have time to discuss anything important in great detail. Well my mistake was assuming that she lived on the closer side of town, but she didn't, and so we ended up leaving her house with me knowing that we were going to be very late.

| | | Mile High Report Official Mock Draft Sign-Up Thread - Get Your Teams Now! | | 2008-03-18 22:03:30 | | Use this thread to sign-up for teams in the MHR Mock Draft. While I will be the commish, you guys and gals are running it. All I would recommend is try to keep it as realistic as possible. It's cool if you are going to allow trades, but keep in mind what each team's GM is likely to do, not necessarily whot you would do. I have asked 100 percent to come up with a logo, and when it is done I will add it to the MHR Mock Draft database. I encourage you to create diaries at sites for other teams in order to get feedback from their fans. Even if you are the person "responsible" for a team's pick, get feedback. It is a great way to create cross-promotion and perhaps add participation to the site. I know some of you have started calling for teams. Please do so again in the comments section below.

| | The Mile High Hockey Whirlwind | | 2008-03-05 09:27:50 | | It's been a crazy week and a half for Mile High Hockey. The trade deadline came and went with the Avs picking up some old favorites (Foote, Forsberg) and a new one (Ruslan Salei), season-ending injuries to three foundation guys (Smyth, Svatos and Clark), a battle royale with a radio talk show host over criticism of Coach Q and the nature of blogging, the birth of a new meme (power play kittens) to replace an old one (Skrastins not withstanding), a profile at the Fanhouse and the most epic game thread of all time. MHH even scored a spot on the "Featured Posts" list at the SBNation home page for the first time ever. And, during all of this, daily traffic has more than doubled, to an average of more than 400 unique visitors per day, with weekdays averaging nearly 500.

| | Hydrogen powered Toyota completes 350 mile trip | | 2007-09-28 22:37:21 | | Hydrogen powered Toyota completes 350 mile trip
Toyota has announced that its hydrogen fuel-cell powered FCHV has successfully completed a 350 mile trip — from Osaka to Tokyo — without stopping for fuel. The trip — which started at the Osaka Prefectural Government Office and concluded at the Mega Web automobile-themed amusement facility in Tokyo — was also complete with the air conditioning running the entire time. According to Toyota, the FCHV is 25% more fuel-efficient than the previous model, thanks to improvements in many of the vehicle's systems. The newest FCHV can also can carry almost twice as much hydrogen as older versions. Toyota's 350 mile journey without a fill-up bests GM's record of 300 miles on a single tank, set in a hydrogen fuel-cell powered Sequel earlier this year. With GM planning to beat Toyota to the market with lithium-ion powered plug-in hybrids, it appears as though Toyota won't give up its green crown witho | | By: Auto News: Car Reviews, Car News, Car Shows | | |
| | | | Quarter Mile of Shit | | 2007-08-28 20:44:55 | | Five months after my transplant I was FUCKED UP. My organs were confused as to what they were supposed to do. My kidneys had become stupid, my lungs decided to collect microscopic organisms, my gallbladder went into hibernation, and my intestines were involved in the most extreme bowel transition ever.It all started when my hospital made an error, which resulted in a pooping incident never before seen in human history. When it was over, it took an entire day for me to re-hydrate from all the fluid I’d lost to the toilet. After that I decided I wasn’t going to shit again for the rest of my life.This resolution lasted two weeks, which turns out to be an insanely long time to go without defecating. The next week I had mild, constant abdominal pain on my left side, which I thought was a strained muscle. My doctor ordered me an X-ray and the picture wasn’t pretty. I had a massive collection of excrement.MASSIVE.“I have a quarter-mile back-up of shit,” I told people.Over the next t | | By: I'VE STILL GOT BOTH MY NUTS: A TRUE CANCER BLOG | | |

This blog will no doubt grow substantially in the coming months, and in order to help the casual user get acquainted with the site and its intricacies (as well as its themes and inside jokes), I've created a handy little reference source.

This thread will serve as the official thread for the site, so if you notice anything missing that should be included, be sure to post a comment here and let me know. At the current time I am not allowing anyone but myself to edit the site due to concerns about vandalism (I can't watch it 24/7), but I do encourage any and all advice on how to make it better.

| | Webb Set To Challenge Steve Scott's Mile Record | | 2007-07-18 23:11:22 | | Alan Webb, who already broke a couple of Steve Scott's records this season (his 28-year-old Drake Relays meet record in the Mile Run and his 25-year-old U.S. National Outdoor Championships meet record in the 1500m Run) is going for perhaps Scott's most prestigious record: the American Mile Run record of 3:47.69. He has lined up a couple of rabbits to pace him at the Atletiek Vlaanderen Meeting in Brasschaat, Belgium on July 21st, 2007.According to this article, Webb will need ideal conditions and good pacing. The forecast for Saturday in Antwerp is partly cloudy with highs in the upper 60s and lows in the mid 50s, which is ideal for middle distance running.As he tries for the record, we have to wonder: Is Webb peaking to soon? Probably not. If we look at his 2005 timeline, he showed a remarkably steady progression (see chart. I converted his Mile times from both years to their 1500m equivalents) all the way from May to August (the sole spike on the 2005 line is his 9th place finish at the 2005 Helsinki world championships).Going into the last part of the current season, the trend for his 2007 timeline appears to be vastly different than, and superior to, his corresponding 2005 timeline. Not only that, but he is much more experienced in international competition and his tactics should be much different than they were in Helsinki. Back then, he shot to the front at 800m, in effect acting as the sacrificial lamb, err... rabbit. This year, he has exhibited much more confidence in his kick by waiting it out, even in slow, tactical races, and then outkicking his opponents. He did this in June by outkicking Bernard Lagat at the national championships and he did it again in Paris, this time outkicking Mehdi Baala.Here's the video of the 2005 1500m final (plus Webb's semi-final race which he led for most of the race, ending up 2nd in his heat). I found it on You Tube, so I had nothing to do with the cheesy jazz overdub or the completely moronic descriptive text that read | | By: Finish Line Pundit: A Track & Field Blog | | |

| | Quick: Name the Third Man to Run a Sub Four Minute Mile! | | 2007-06-26 16:05:00 | | Let's see, Roger Bannister of Great Britain did it first on May 6th, 1954 with a time of 3:59.4, then John Landy of Australia quickly followed on June 21st, 1954 with a time of 3:57.9, then...Wes Santee? No, he came close, but – unfortunately – the "Ashland Antelope" never did better than a 4:00.5, thanks to the myopia exhibited by the oligarchical power mongers of the AAU prior to the Steve Prefontaine-inspired Amateur Sports Act of 1978, an act that stripped the AAU of its vice-like grip on Track & Field in the United States. For all of the moaning and groaning we hear about the USATF and the way it governs the sport, it's certainly much better than the AAU ever was.Ron Delaney? No, he was 7th.Jim Bailey? No. Although he was the first man to break the four-minute barrier on American soil, Bailey, an Australian, was only the 6th man to break the barrier.I know! Don Bowden! Nope.

The featured event will be the famous Dream Mile. Craig Mottram will take on Kenyans Daniel Kipchirchir Komen and Alex Kipchirchir in a bid to try and restore the event to its old luster.Both Mottram and Komen are fresh off of victories in the Prefontaine Classic - Mottram with an American all-comer's record of 8:03.50 in the 2 Mile and Komen with an American all-comer's record of 3:48.28 in the Mile. Kipchirchir finished 3rd in that race in a time of 3:52.10. He also ran the fastest Mile of 2006 in a time of 3:50.32.Osafa Powell, the world's fastest human, will also run in Oslo.

| | Alan Webb's Bold Switch to the 2 Mile at the Pre Classic | | 2007-06-07 18:17:00 | | If nothing else, you have to admire Alan Webb's pluck. He was originally scheduled to take on Bernard Lagat, Alex Kipchirchir, Daniel K. Komen, et al, in the Bowerman Mile. He has since decided to switch over to the 2 Mile race so he can take on the Fabulous Bekele Brothers and take a shot at his American record of 8:11.48. Is his decision courageous or foolish? We'll find out on Sunday. His winning kick at Reebok certainly helps make the case that he's ready for the challenge.The 33rd Prefontaine Classic will be televised live on NBC for two hours beginning at 1 p.m. PT on June 10th.TENTATIVE TIME SCHEDULE (as of 6/5/07)12:30 National Anthem12:35 Javelin Throw (W)12:40 Introduction of Bob Schul12:44 Introduction of Don Bowden12:48 Introduction of Bill Dellinger1:03 400 Meter Hurdles (W) [Live TV]1:06 Long Jump (M) [West]1:08 Pole Vault (M)1:11 100 Meters (M)1:16 Steeplechase (M)1:30 800 Meters (M)1:35 Shot Put (M)1:40 100 Hurdles (W)1:44 Triple Jump (W) [East]1:48 110 Hurdles (M)1: | | By: Finish Line Pundit: A Track & Field Blog | | |

El Guerrouj made good use of his rabbits but Ngeny tucked in right behind El Guerrouj the entire way, finally making his move with 100m to go. He closed all the way to the tape but El Guerrouj hung on to win in 3:43.13 to Ngeny's 3:43.40.

| | General Motors 100000 Mile Certified Used Warranty | | 2007-03-04 19:55:00 | | General Motors is trying to take the GM or Certified Used Vehicle Sales to the next level. They will be offering a 100000 mile warranty on USED VEHICLES! WOW!First, it has to be a Certified Vehicle from a Certified Used Dealer. A Certified Used GM Vehicle is a car, truck, or SUV from the year model 2002-2006 with less than 60000 miles. Notice that I did not include 2007 models. This is because they already have the 100000 mile warranty included. Brands included are Chevrolet, GMC, Pontiac, Buick.The warranty is a warranty that will cover engine, transmission, drive train. It is not a bumper to bumper warranty, but will cover the major components that cost the most to fix. This will take the GM sales to record levels this year as it will offer peace of mind. Imagine, you are looking at a 2003 GM Car with 45000 miles. Under the old Certified Program, you would receive a 3 month, 3000 mile bumper to bumper warranty only. You still receive this, but also get the 100000 power train warranty | | By: Car Buying Tips To Save You Money | | |
