General Motors : Hummer

General Motors is introducing the new Hummer H3. It looks very much like the big, beefy, hypermacho Hummer H2 which looks a lot like the really big, really beefy, Hummer H1.But the Hummer H3 is smaller. About the same size as a small family sedan, it's almost 17 inches shorter than the H2 and 6.5 inches narrower. It is similar in size to the Jeep Liberty.

Extremely poor gas mileage has been a major complaint among owners of the larger Hummer H2. (Because it is not considered, technically, a passenger vehicle, the H2 has not been rated for fuel efficiency by the Environmental Protection Agency.)The H3 provides an opportunity for the less affluent to afford something that still looks and feels like the big Hummers. It will be much cheaper, and it won't go through tanks of gasoline like kegs of beer at a fraternity party.

The new, smaller Hummer will be powered by a 220 horsepower 5-cylinder engine. It's no Prius, but GM does expect it to get up to 20 miles a gallon.

Sales of the larger H2, which is priced at about $50,000, have been dropping recently. Analysts have blamed high fuel prices and simple market saturation. There are only so many people who want something as extremely brawny as the Hummer H2.

GM still makes much of the new midsize Hummer's off-road capabilities. Optional versions will have extremely low-speed gear ranges available for "ultimate obstacle-climbing control." The H3 also has 33-inch tires and a 9.1-inch ground clearance.

In addition to its small size, the H3 will also be the first Hummer available with a manual transmission. The H2 and H1 are available only with automatics.

Real Love

It was a gloomy Saturday afternoon. A flock of birds was spending great time searching for food and playing on the main road. Out of the sudden, a big truck sped through... sad thing had happened again.

Birds can feel too. Although this bird had already died, another bird flew over to her immediately, just like a family member, unable to accept the truth.

Not long after that, another car stormed in causing the dead bird's body to whirl with the wind. The spouse noticed the movement. As if she was still alive, he quickly flew beside her again.

He stayed beside her and yelled ... "WHY ARE YOU NOT GETTING UP!?"

Unfortunately, she's no longer able to hear him. In the meantime, he's trying to lift her up.

He, of course, was unable to bear the burden. Another car soon passed by. He quickly flew off. Once the car had gone, he came down again.

Although other birds told him its useles, he never gave up. He was trying his best to lift her up to see her flying again. Another car passed by, her dead body whirled again as if still alive and trying to fly.

He had used all of his energy, however...The photographer said he couldn't shoot any longer. The photographer was so worried that the living bird was going to get hurt by passing cars. So he picked up the dead bird and left it at the roadside. The live one still lingered at a nearby tree as if crying with his singing and refused to leave.Do humans have the same feelings nowadays? I wonder.
