Histories of revolutions often focus on military, political, or economic upheavals but sometimes neglect to connect these larger events to the daily lives of "ordinary" people. Yet the peoples' perception that "things are worse than before" can topple revolutionary governments, as shown by the recent defeat of the Sandinista regime in Nicaragua and the governments of Eastern Europe. Providing the kind of prosaic, revealing details that more formal histories have excluded, My Car in Managua offers an objective, often humorous description of the great difficulties and occasional pleasures of life in Nicaragua during the Sandinista revolution. During a year's work (1985-1986) at the Instituto Centroamericano de Administración de Empresas (INCAE), Forrest Colburn purchased a dilapidated car--and with it an introduction to everyday life in Nicaragua. His discoveries of the length of time required to register the car (approximately six weeks), the impossibility of finding spare parts (except when U.S. dollars were applied to the search), and the fact that "anyone getting into a car in Managua can be charged a small fee [for car watching] by anyone else" all suggest the difficulties most Nicaraguans faced living in a devastated economy. Drawing on experiences from visits throughout the revolutionary period (1979-1989), Colburn also sheds light on how the Revolution affected social customs and language, gender roles and family relationships, equality and authority, the availability of goods and services, the status of ethnic minorities, and governmental and other institutions. Illustrations by Nicaragua's celebrated political cartoonist Róger Sánchez Flores enliven the lucid text. Minimize

Forget about nuclear missiles, the decisive weapon of the twentieth century is the car bomb. We now know you can defeat a Superpower, start a civil war or just blow up your own government with a trunk-load of homemade explosives and a battered old car. From the Middle East to Oklahoma, Afghanistan and most recently New York's Times Square, the car bomb has shaped human conflict. Even today it remains the number one terrorist threat across the world. In this startling film, ex-CIA agent Robert Baer, whose life was depicted by George Clooney in the Oscar(R)-winning movie "Syriana", uncovers the history of this extraordinary weapon for the first time.

BMW started out as a builder of aircraft engines, then motorcycles and finally cars. Its aircraft engines set speed records in the '30s and its sports cars were stylish, elegant and fast. The horizontally opposed engines on its motorcycles caught the eye of the US Government and this lead to Harley Davidson being ordered to copy them for use in the War. After the War BMW fought to reclaim its status as a producer of world-renowned sports cars and motorcycles. Today, it's clear that this company has carved out a place among the builders of unique and fast vehicles that many say deserve to be called, "The Ultimate Driving Machines". Minimize

When the Government mandated tougher emission regulation one of the ways diesel engine manufacturers lowered tailpipe emissions was to include a Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) on newer diesel engine. Although most of you don’t have a DPF truck you are still affected. Because some of the tried and true additive packages in conventional oils (mainly zinc and phosphorous) harm and plug up DPFs. These valuable additives started appearing in less and less ppm in oils. Subsequently we have started to see much greater wear in the valvetrain anywhere metal parts rub or shear against each other. In the case of performance engines with high lift cams and higher spring rates they are especially vulnerable for damage from newer oils. To combat this we have come out with our own Zinc additive. It will help oil maintain its surface tension and provide a better cushion between moving parts. When a new cam is first installed it is very important for you to use 2 bottles of this additive before startup to make sure your cam does not have abnormal wear during break-in. After that on high performance engines we suggest one bottle per oil change. This additive is NOT for use on trucks with a DPf as it might damage the unit. Minimize

Three years after settling down with the woman of his dreams, a former government assassin discovers there's a price tag on his head, and that his number could be up at any minute. Spencer Aimes (Ashton Kucher) was the man the government called on when they needed someone taken out on the sly. Fast, clean, and efficient, he always got the job done, and enjoyed the many perks that came with traveling the globe in search of his targets. But somewhere amidst all of the fast cars and exotic women, Spencer fell in love with Jen Kornfeldt (Katherine Heigl), a carefree computer expert on the mend from a relationship gone sour. Flash forward three years, when Spencer and Jen are happily married and living the domestic dream. On the heels of Spencer's 30th birthday, he and his happy wife discover that their life of bliss could come to a violent end at any second someone has put a multi-million-dollar contract on Spencer's life, and the hired killers who have been tracking him could be anyone from the checkout girl to the neighborhood curmudgeon. Time is running out for Spencer, and as the race to uncover his assassin intensifies, so too does his paranoia. With his in-laws making life miserable and the threat of death lurking around every corner, Spencer struggles to maintain appearances while staying out of the crosshairs, and keeping Jen safe from harm. Catherine O'Hara, Tom Selleck, and Martin Mull co-star in an action-packed comedy thriller from director Rob Luketic (LEGALLY BLONDE, THE UGLY TRUTH). Minimize

In Outraged, an auto insider provides an inspiring account of what it means to lose your rights, property, and, in essence, the American dream. It begins with roughly two thousand men and women whose companies were destroyed by two automakers, General Motors and Chrysler, during their government-led corporate restructurings in 2009. Authors Tamara Darvish, vice president of DARCARS Automotive in Maryland, and Lillie Guyer, a Detroit area automotive journalist, show the collapse of the American dream from the perspective of an entrepreneur who was affected by the automotive industry bailout. In this featurized business story, Outraged details the founding of the activist group Committee to Restore Dealer Rights and its efforts to regain the economic rights of auto dealerships throughout the United States. It tells how they took their fight to Congress and to the steps of the White House. Outraged candidly examines the battles between dealers and the entities that engineered their demise. It also details the pain and the high points in government as its temporary power brokers ignore the significant role of Congress in lawmaking and the rights of ordinary citizens. This personal, controversial account shows what can happen when people unite in a common cause and stand up for what they believe is right. Minimize
