Lack Of Vitamin D Could Spell Heart Trouble
Lack Of Vitamin D Could Spell Heart Trouble - Vitamin D deficiency - which is traditionally associated with bone and muscle weakness - may also increase the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). A growing body of evidence links low 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels to common CVD risk factors such as hypertension, obesity and diabetes, as well [...]
Forgive Me While I Drool
. . . and it’s street legal too.
You know, why don’t you read about this beautiful Maserati MC12 Corsa at the AutoBlog. I’m simply too busy drooling to say anything more. Napkin please!
LHM: 2008 Mercedes SLK55 AMG
For those who don’t know, LHM means Lawd Have Mercy. It’s no secret I love the Benz but, to be honest, all of their cars were beginning to look like a larger or smaller version of the other. The S550 mimics the larger Maybach and other models designs went the same route. It was almost [...]

Beyond the “the Benz,” I’ve been interested in the [...]
Going, Going, Gone!
Yes, I love Ferarris and this news item caught my eye. This 1961 Ferarri, formerly owned by actor James Coburn, went on the auction block recently and made history. Coburn owned the car for more than 25 years and was a regular sight in his Spyder, driving it daily to and from [...]
Ferrari To Go!
While waiting for video to render (which is similar to watching water boil), I decided to get out of the house for the next phase of my video editing project. When Final Cut was ready for the export/share for iDVD, I headed into Old Town Pasadena to check out the Apple store and get [...]
