Toyota Camry


Motor Trend has named the redesigned Toyota Camry as its car of the year.

The Toyota Camry bested a field of 27 competitors, comprising six models
from the U.S., 10 from Japan, five from Korea, four from Germany, one from the
U.K., and one from Sweden.
To be eligible for Car of the Year, a vehicle must
be totally new or redesigned, and released in the 12 months prior to January 1,
2007 (cars with modifications such as new engines or that are variants of
existing models are not eligible).
This year's field of contenders for Car of
the Year included:Chevrolet Aveo, Chrysler Sebring, Dodge Caliber, Honda Fit,
Hyundai Elantra, Hyundai Entourage, Infiniti G35, Jaguar XK, Jeep Compass, Kia
Optima, Kia Rondo, Kia Sedona, Lexus ES 350, Lexus LS 460, Mercedes Benz
S-Class, Nissan Altima, Nissan Sentra, Nissan Versa, Porsche Cayman, Saturn
Aura, Saturn Sky Redline, Suzuki SX4, Toyota Camry, Toyota Yaris, Volvo C70 T5,
Volkswagen EOS, and Volkswagen Rabbit

The question is if they are right in telling us that Camry is indeed the best car to buy this year. The looks on the car are good. It has an lucrative interior and imposing posterior yet it is efficient in consuming fuel. So much so that it has EPA rating of 40mpg in the city for the hybrid version. The price tag is reasonable too at 18,000 for the CE and 26,000 for the Hybrid class.
I like the looks and the standard features that are provided in the car which include remote entry and start, side torso airbags, knee airbags and side-curtain airbags. The car has been rated satisfactory on the safety standard tests. This means i will have to go and buy this car now. so off i go...

Learning Arduino 1

This holiday season I decided to gift myself some basic electrical components in the form of a Arduino UNO set from Elegoo. I have always had a desire to tinker with electronics and in gifting myself this basic set I am now starting on a journey to quench my inner electrical workman's thirst. I hope to develop this hobby as I move forward and will, from time to time, post about it here on the blog. As the journey moves forward I am sure to run into trouble and issues. But as they say you can not master anything without first being a fool at it, so I have decided to remain a fool at it until I am a little good at it. To start with, I do possess some elementary knowledge in electronics and electronic circuits. I intend to further my knowledge using the world wide web and following some very useful video channels on youtube. I will first start with some very basic projects to familiarize myself with Arduino and basic electronic circuits and techniques such as soldering. Then graduall...

iPad 2

The new iPad is worth it's money. Sleek slender design is a plus and so is the light weight. I am not really impressed by the camera as the pictures with both front and back cameras are pixelated and very amateurish looking. It's handy in the sense that I can carry it around while making rounds and access patient information on the go. This makes life easier and for someone like myself this means much less paper waste. I think one added advantage is that I will waste less time on writing down all the information on a piece of paper every morning and will be able to pull it up anytime I want to do so or need to do so. This gives me more time to think and reflect on the patient and spend more time with the patient rather than time in front of a bulky computer. There are new apps I am discovering every day. However there is still dearth of good medical apps that have been modeled for iPad. This makes the productivity of the iPad a little less but still the benefits of having a w...

Elections '08

Parliamentary Elections are just 12 hours away in Pakistan. Unlike all previous elections i have reached the voting age for these elections. Now i can use my right to vote to select a candidate that i think represents future and progress. I can be part of the democratic process. I can be a miniature vector of change or towards change. But i will not use my right to vote. that means i will not participate in the process of electing representatives who will rule my country and my fate for the next five years, even more if they get their way like this present dictator, Musharraf. In doing so i will loose my right to object to any actions of the 'elected', more so selected representatives of this country. but this can be debated and in most probability i will not pass from any opportunity to pointing out wrong doings and mischief in the character of those who lead my unfortunate country in the future. I will not vote because i know the outcomes of the elections have been pr...
