Honda reveals Acura NSX Supercar
The new Acura NSX supercar wowed the North American International Auto Show in January. Honda made the surprising announcement that the mid-engine supercar will be developed and built in Ohio. This is a huge prize from a company like Honda that prides itself on its Japanese heritage.
I, personally think it is a sleek looking automobile. The new NSX will be a stunning yet cunning beast. Rather than a huge V-8 or V-10, it will be built so light and nimble that a V-6 will provide plenty of power, plus fuel economy to match, thanks to its hybrid system, Acura says.
The vehicle, due to hit the streets in about three years, will also have its share of technological breakthroughs. Chief among them will be multiple electric motors configured to enhance the performance of the all-wheel-drive system. They will be independently controlled by the car's computer and be able to send more power to the outside wheels in tight turns to make the car even more maneuverable. Honda calls it the Sport Hybrid-All Wheel Drive system or SH-AWD.
"This sport hybrid SH-AWD system will make NSX the ultimate expression of Acura's idea to create synergy between man and machine," said Honda CEO Takanobu Ito in a statement.

The Dream Lives On...
February is Black History Month and there is reason to celebrate. Nearly half a century ago, legendary Civil Rights activist Martin Luther King, Jr. delivered his famous "I Have A Dream" speech on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C.
Today, when visitors to the Lincoln Memorial stand on the steps and look out, they're greeted by a sign that pays the perfect tribute to that historical moment: the first memorial on the Mall built to honor a black man, the Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial.
The Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial was officially dedicated on October 16, 2011, in a star-studded ceremony attended by thousands of people from across the country. |

Fire Safety in your Home
During these cold winter months fireplaces and space heaters are glowing. Now is a good time to be reminded of some simple rules about home fire safety.
Develop an emergency escape plan:
- Create a plan that includes escape routes from each room of your home. Think about the diagram on the back of hotel doors.
- Practice your plan with all household members.
- Review the plan at least twice a year with all household members.
- Update the plan when you make changes, like finishing a basement or rearranging furniture.
- Post the plan on your refrigerator or where family members will see it regularly and commit it to memory.
Install and check smoke alarms:
- Install battery and/or electric-wired smoke alarms on every level of your home, including basements, attics and outside each bedroom.
- Change smoke alarm batteries twice a year.
- Test smoke alarms once a month, if not more often.
- Replace battery operated smoke alarm units every 8-10 years.
Obtain safety ladders:
For multilevel homes, safety ladders are invaluable. You can find them at most building supply stores in compact styles that can be installed under a window. If possible, install one in every bedroom.
Choose the right fire extinguishers:
Different fire types require a specific class of fire extinguisher. Identify the areas in your home where a fire is most likely to occur, and then store the correct class of extinguisher nearby. Especially consider extinguishers for your kitchen, work areas and grilling locations. Share the locations and how to use each extinguisher with each member of your household.
- Class A: Ordinary combustible materials such as cloth, wood, rubber, paper and plastics.
- Class B: Flammable liquids such as grease, gasoline, oil and oil based paints.
- Class C: Electrically energized or plugged in items such as appliances or tools.
- Class K: Vegetable oils, animal oils, or fats in cooking appliances.
Practice fire safety and live in the confidence that if a fire occurs, you and your family are prepared.
