[Countercurrents.org] Caught Between Berlin And Hong Kong, A Filipina Worker Unleashed: This quasi-religious ceremony in secular Europe, the quiet camaraderie and unobtrusive solidarity, the calculatedly subdued ending—all these displace our anxiety about the crime, leaving us with Marisol’s thoughtful, handsome face. We surmise that she will resume her normal life with possibly more awareness of the injustice and danger that lurk behind the civilized facades of the wealthy employing nations.

[Saab Cars - Trollhattan Saab] Question of the year: Why are Saabs selling so poorly?: Why is such a mystery as to why saab sales are failing.As i said in here before saab quality was poor, dealerships far too expensive and the attitude of saab customer relations simply shocking.Before i go any further let me assure sure you i am not a saab knocker but a long time saab owner.I said in a previous post that things would only get worse for saab and that`s excactly what is happening.Lets take the 9-3, does it really surprise you that 9-3 sales are poor,you say that the latest 9-3ss is a good car,that may be true,but you cannot say that of early 9-3 ss so why would you expect anyone to renew to a new 9-3ss.Quality was shocking for a car in that price bracket,cheap interiors cheap components overpriced servicing costs and customer relations department that had no interest their customers.You can talk about better advertising, branding excerisies etc etc but if your excisting customers are unhappy they will not come back i know a few people who will never buy saab again.Lets just hope the new models are better, along with sensible servicing costs and good customer relations and just maybe saab can start building a loyal customer base again…

[drive blog] drive blog: FPV GTHO: Falcon halo car readying for battle: Dropping in the 5.4 DOHC (S/C)donk from the Ford GT or Shelby KR500 gives the car a link with the back to the 'normal' FPV GT, as they are all 5.4 litre DOHC V8's, as apposed to sticking in a pushrod V8 from a truck. Strip weight from it by dropping the luxury items and use of carbon fibre or aluminium bits to make it the fastest (or at least close to) 4 door production car in the world and make it a Bathurst legend by running it in the Bathurst 12 Hr Enduro.
