17 amazing Superhero bodypaint costumes (NSFW)
Superhero costumes in comic books are often drawn as so impossibly tight and form fitting that they basically look painted on. These 17 daring people have brought that concept into the real world by "wearing" superhero costumes made out of nothing but bodypaint.
Google Scribe
Google launched a very interesting tool that offers suggestions as you type: Google Scribe. It's not exactly the service I anticipated 3 years ago, but Google Scribe works surprisingly well. For example, I started to type "This works sur" and Google suggested "This works surprisingly well", which is exactly what I wanted to type. Instead of typing 14 characters, I could only type "1" or press Enter to select the first suggestion. "Google Scribe provides text completion service. Using information from what you have already typed in a document, Google Scribe provides related word or phrase completion suggestions. In addition to saving keystrokes, Google Scribe's suggestions indicate correct or popular phrases to use," explains Google.The nice thing about this service is that you don't need to use Google's editor. You can add a bookmarklet to your browser and use Google Scribe in Gmail, Blogger, Google Docs or on any web page that includes text fields.Google Scribe only works for English right now, but I'm sure that Google will add many other languages in the future. If you don't like to see suggestions for all the words you type, enable the on-demand mode (Ctrl+Shift+J) and you'll only see suggestions when you press Tab.

This car-based SUV, which has seen its initial popularity recede over the last few years, will be redesigned toward the end of 2005, at the earliest. It's believed that the Vitara's architecture will no longer be shared with the now defunct Chevy Tracker. Most likely, the new Vitara will be spun off from General Motors' Theta platform, which it will have in common with the Saturn Vue and the projected Pontiac Torrent. |

| SUV , Lexus, 2006, 5 Seats, 4.7L - 8 Cylinders
The Lexus GX 470 is an authentic, mid-size SUV, with serious off-road capability based on traditional truck engineering: body-on-frame construction, a rugged four-wheel-drive system, and a live rear axle. But it's also a Lexus: roomy and quiet inside, with a luxurious cabin swathed in leather and bird's-eye maple. Its 4.7-liter overhead-cam V8 and smoothly responsive five-speed automatic transmission provide ample power and performance, whether towing, trail-bashing, or carving corners on a coastal highway. The switchgear is a study in ergonomic excellence, and all controls are right where you expect them to be. |
