Now that smaller cars are back in style, General
Motors is working hard to make sure that its next
economy sedan can compete with Japan's finest. How
else would you explain the presence of the 2011
Chevrolet Cruze on the Nürburgring?
An all-new chassis is probably the main reason why
the Chevrolet Cruze is undergoing such heavy
development testing. Dubbed Delta 2, the new
platform is expected to filter down to several
other GM products like the Chevrolet HHR and Opel
Zafira.
It remains front-wheel drive and from what we're
told, it will feature a torsion-beam axle in back
to keep down costs. That's a shame, really, as
both Ford and Honda have figured out how to put
independent suspensions in their compact sedans
without breaking the bank. Of course, Chevrolet's
engineers claim that the Cruze will ride and
handle every bit as well as a Civic, Focus or
Mazda 3. We'll see about that.
In Europe, the Chevy Cruze will be offered with a
choice of four-cylinder gas and diesel engines.
For the U.S. market, GM intends to fit a
turbocharged, direct-injection 1.4-liter that will
deliver up to 40 mpg in highway driving. We
presume that number is for models equipped with a
manual transmission. Hopefully Chevrolet will find
a way to specify a six-speed automatic for those
who don't want to do their own shifting, but given
the cost reductions found elsewhere, don't count
on it.
A replacement for the current Cobalt compact, the
2011 Chevrolet Cruze is scheduled to be unveiled
this October at the 2008 Paris Auto Show. The
Cruze will go on sale in Europe in spring 2009,
but U.S. sales won't begin until mid-2010.

LEARN MORE ABOUT THE 2010 HONDA HYBRID:

It's been in the works ever since the Honda
Insight went out of production in 2006, but this
is the first time the 2010 Honda Hybrid Sedan has
been caught out in the open. Designed as a direct
competitor to the forthcoming 2010 Toyota Prius,
this new Honda hybrid sedan is expected to debut
early next year.
The styling is intended to mimic Honda's FCX
Clarity, a hydrogen-powered sedan that Honda began
leasing to the public this summer. The Clarity
fuel-cell vehicle is closer in size to Honda's
Accord sedan while this hybrid will fall somewhere
between the Accord and the smaller Civic.
More important, this new hybrid sedan is expected
to cost less than the Civic sedan. In a press
conference earlier this year, Honda CEO Takeo
Fukui told reporters that although the company's
Prius fighter won't have next-generation
lithium-ion batteries, the batteries it will use
are lighter and more powerful than the current
nickel-metal hydride variety.
John Mendel, executive vice president of American
Honda, added, "These new advancements in Honda's
technology and production systems will result in
cost reductions that will allow us to make hybrid
technology available to a whole new generation of
buyers."
In other words, even if the new 2010 Honda Hybrid
is seen as nothing more than a Prius knockoff, it
could still do well in the marketplace based on
its rock-bottom price alone.
Add in the fact that it could realistically get
45-50 mpg and this new entry-level hybrid sedan
could eclipse the Prius as the best-selling hybrid
in America — that is, it will be if Honda
decides to bump up production. At the moment,
Honda expects to ship only 100,000 units to the
U.S. per year beginning in the fall of 2009. If
gas prices continue on their current trajectory,
however, that number could be just the start.

| TF2 - How to play the spy. |

EDIT 2: Annotations! Nifty tool this is.
EDIT: A lot of changes have happened to the spy
since I posted this video:
- For once, the teleporter trail will NOT appear
under you as a spy if you are cloaked or
disguised.
- The knife does about 60 damage when not
backstabbing, for example you can kill a scout in
3 slashes.
- Backstab detection is really wonky now, and the
backstab animation guarantees frustration when
warping causes you to miss a lot of kills.
- Remember to cloak first, then disguise,
otherwise if you disguise first and cloak, the
smoke effect can blow your cover from a mile away.
-----
Decided to make a spy gameplay tutorial after
being in a server and seeing spies trying out all
sorts of interesting tactics such as "uncloaking
in front of your face" and "running towards you
disguised with your name".
This is just something based on my playstyle so
you might say my tactics don't work, but I can
usually come out on top of the scoreboard if the
enemy team isn't overly paranoid.
I use certain terms you may not have heard such
as:
Front - The area where most of the fighting takes
place on a map. This constantly changes during the
round and it's the place where you will most
likely get shot if you get seen running towards
the enemy base.
Blind spot - An area where the enemy team has no
vision. Use these blind spots to uncloak safely
prior to a backstab.
I haven't actually given any advice on when to use
the disguise because basically you should be
disguised at all times, except when you are inside
your base. You can use the friendly disguise on
your part of the map to confuse enemy spies. They
won't expect that medic that ran behind them to
instantly take them down.
