Volkswagen's million dollar Bugatti


Bugatti Veyron
Mish-
Powered by a W16 engine with four turbochargers, the supercar will deliver an unbelievable 1,001bhp – some 200bhp more than current grand prix cars. And amazingly, this figure is actually said to be a conservative estimate.
The four-wheel-drive monster promises:
A top speed of 250+ mph (400+ kph)
A zero-to-60 mph time of 3 seconds
A zero-to-180 mph time of 14 seconds
1,250Nm of torque available at 2,200rpm from the direct-injection engine
A price tag somewhere in the $1 million range.

Squash at Sunset


By Khalid-
For the first time ever, a major squash championship is to be held in Al-Khobar Saudi Arabia (December 16th-20th). Not only is it a major event for squash fanatics in this region, but it also falls under the Super Series Platinum level. This is the highest rating on the PSA Tour calendar due to its total grand prize of over $120,000.

The event will take place in Sunset Beach Al-Khobar. The whole event is paid for by sponsors and the revenue will be given to local charitable organizations. The world’s top 32 players will participate in this event, including Bandar Al-Otaibi who will be representing Saudi Arabia.

Dirty dining? - posted by Mish

‘Dateline’ hidden cameras investigate cleanliness of America’s top 10 fast food chains
Fast food: It’s served fast and you eat it fast, maybe too fast to notice the restaurant is a little dirty. The fact is that no one has ever done a national survey looking at the cleanliness of fast food chains — until now. Recently, we took our Dateline cameras undercover for the first-ever investigation of whether America’s top 10 fast food chains are clean and safe. How did your favorite restaurant do?

check it out

Yummeh! - posted by Mish


In general, burgers sold in fast food restaurants aren’t really that good, but if you had to choose your favorite fast food burger, what would it be?

Eg: Burger King’s Whopper with cheese?


Note: this is strictly fast food. Chillis, Fuddruckers, Johnny Rockets, Becks Prime, OutBack, etc. -> NOT INCLUDED

Participe Por Favor


Has anyone ever 'burned' a movie for you? Did someone's input just screw up with your expectations of a movie, that it was simply spoiled? Has anyone blabbered out the ending and just killed it for you?

What was your combusted movie experience? Type in the movie title first, to prevent anyone who hasn't seen it from being completely pissed at you.

Eg. I just don't understand why people consider The Sixth Sense a 'great movie experience.' "Yeaaaaah, I know what it is, is cuz someone revealed some info, a bit too soon! innit?"
