A new rear spoiler was added to sharpen up handling at higher speeds, while the rear mirrors and headlights were replaced for a more modern look.
American football Etymology and names History Early history American football evolved from the sports of association football (soccer) and rugby football. A Most Peculiar Test Drive You may have heard recently about an article written by John Broder from The New York Times that makes numerous claims about the performance of the Model S. We are upset by this article because it does not factually represent Tesla technology, which is designed and tested to operate well in both hot and cold climates. Indeed, our highest per capita sales are in Norway, where customers drive our cars during Arctic winters in permanent midnight, and in Switzerland, high among the snowy Alps. About half of all Tesla Roadster and Model S customers drive in temperatures well below freezing in winter.
History of Football Football (as well as rugby and soccer) are believed to have descended from the ancient Greek game of harpaston. Harpaston is mentioned frequently in classical literature, where it is often referred to as a “very rough and brutal game“.

Walt Clyde Frazier's Signature Style For about 30 years, Walt Frazier lived on New York’s Upper East Side. This wouldn’t be news were he just any old well-to-do man of a certain age. That’s the Upper East Side: where money — old and newish — goes to admire itself.

Spinning black hole: Scientists measure supermassive black hole rotating at nearly the speed of light. Image credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech Black holes are the Universe’s ultimate garbage disposals: Stuff falls in, and never gets back out. It can’t. To get out, you’d have to travel faster than the speed of light, which (as far as we know) is impossible. Black holes grow by consuming matter, and in the centers of galaxies they can grow to huge size. In the gorgeous barred spiral galaxy NGC 1365 (shown below), there’s one lurking in the core that has about two million times as much mass as our Sun.
