Golden autumn
http://youtu.be/1dKz0OnALH0 Seasons of the Year, traditionally assigned to four: spring, summer, autumn and winter.
Seasons change caused by Earth's revolution around the Sun and the Earth's axis of rotation of a constant inclination to the Earth's orbit plane. Earth's northern hemisphere facing the sun in spring and summer, less - in the autumn and winter, because sunlight is falling on the northern hemisphere, erect, and the sun shines and heats it in a stronger spring and summer than in autumn and winter. Earth's Southern Hemisphere sun shines and heats strongly at a time when the northern hemisphere autumn and winter is the result that, for example. The northern hemisphere is winter in the Southern Hemisphere - summer.
Astronomical seasons.Chart Earth's seasons, when viewed from the Southern Hemisphere
Astronomical beginning of spring in the Southern Hemisphere is the moment when the Sun moving in the ecliptic passes through the center of the celestial equator at the vernal equinox (March 20-21).. At this point, in both hemispheres (except the polar areas) day and night time is almost equal.
Astronomical beginning of summer in Northern Hemisphere land and astronomical beginning of winter in the Southern Hemisphere is the moment when the Sun passes through the center point of the ecliptic, the farthest north of the celestial equator (June 21-22).. At the moment the Earth is in the Northern Hemisphere the longest day and the southern hemisphere - the shortest.
Earth's astronomical beginning of autumn in the northern hemisphere and the astronomical beginning of spring in the Southern Hemisphere is the moment when the Sun passes through the center again in the celestial equator, but after the autumn equinox point (September 22-23).. At this point, in both hemispheres between day and night time is almost equal.
Astronomical beginning of winter in Northern Hemisphere land and astronomical beginning of summer in the Southern Hemisphere is the moment when the Sun passes through the center point of the ecliptic, the farthest south of the celestial equator (December 21-22).. At this point, Land in the Northern Hemisphere is the shortest day, the Southern Hemisphere - the longest.
Due to the fact that the Earth orbits around the Sun in elliptic orbit is irregular, seasonal duration of variable. Earth is closest to the Sun in early January, when passing through the perihelion and probably orbits. As a result, the Northern Hemisphere winter is the shortest astronomical season, and the astronomical summer - the longest (in the northern hemisphere astronomical spring lasts ~ 92.8 days, astronomical summer ~ 93.6 d, 89.8 astronomical autumn ~ d ~ 89.0 astronomical winter D). For the same reason, the Northern Hemisphere summer semester (spring and summer]]) is ~ 8 days longer than the winter half-year.

BMW 650i Frozen Brilliant White Edition Convertible
BMW 650i Frozen Brilliant White Edition Convertible:
The 2014 BMW 6-Series will be heading to dealers soon and BMW has just announced an all-new special edition for folks who happen to think the 2014 650i just won’t be enough car for them. This new model is dubbed the Frozen Brilliant White Edition and you can order it in two trim levels: 650i Convertible or 650i xDrive Convertible.
On the outside, there is plenty to distinguish this new model from the normal 6-Series. The most distinguishing element is its exclusive Frozen Brilliant White Metallic matte paintjob, but the Frozen Black mirror caps, black BMW kidney grilles and 20-inch BMW M Performance light-alloy wheels in a bi-color paint scheme also help set it apart. Contrasting the exterior color perfectly is the black cloth top.
Inside the cabin, this new special edition includes black Nappa leather upholstery trimmed out with Gray Poplar wood. The Frozen Brilliant White Edition also includes the Dynamic Digital Instrument Cluster, which is making its debut in the U.S. Basically, this system changes its look and what it displays to match the Driving Dynamics Control Mode you select.
In addition to these exclusive additions, BMW is also tossing in the M Sport Package, which includes an increase in the top-speed limiter, Shadowline exterior trimming, body-colored front and rear bumpers, and an M Steering wheel. Also added in is the Executive Package, which adds ceramic controls, a heads-up display, ventilated front seats, smartphone integration, soft-close automatic doors and BMW Apps. Lastly, BMW adds the Cold Weather Package standard, which adds in a ski bag and a heated steering wheel. In 2013, these kits combined would cost you a whopping $8,100 and you get them “free.”
Under the hood, there are no changes from the base 650i, so we would expect it to carry the same 4.4-liter V-8 that punches out 445 horsepower and 480 pound-feet of torque. The only difference between this and the base 650i Convertible is that the M Performance package jumps its top speed from 130 mph to 155 mph.
As for pricing, the 650i Frozen Brilliant White Edition will come in at $106,995 and the xDrive model will hit $110,095. Production is set to start in April or May of 2013 and only 100 models will be produced.

Mercedes-Benz CLS63 AMG "Stealth" by German Special Customs
Mercedes-Benz CLS63 AMG "Stealth" by German Special Customs:
When you think of the term “Stealth,” the last thing that comes to mind is a bright-orange CLS63 AMG with nearly 800 horsepower screaming down city streets. Well, apparently the folks over at German Special Customs couldn’t care less what you think about the term, as they rocked the CLS to supercar status and called it just that: Stealth.
On the outside, you get the already sexy coupè look wrapped up in a super-bright shade of orange that is ripped straight from the Aventador’s color palette. Up front, GSC adds in an aggressive front bumper with integrated LED daytime running lights, a mean-looking hood with monstrous heat-extracting vents and all-new fenders that cap off the vicious front end.
Around the backside, you get an all-new rear bumper cover that boasts a carbon-fiber diffusor to help pull the back end down at high speeds. A high-grade-steel four-pipe exhaust system is one with the diffusor, giving the CLS 63 a clean finish and a rather mean exhaust note.
Also added into the mix is a set of wheels size 20-by-9 inches up front and 20-by-10.5 inches on the back wrapped up in super-sticky Michelin tires sized 255/30R20 and 305/25R20, respectively. This sticky rubber is combined with a KW coil-over suspension system and adjustable dampers to make this massive performance coupè even more competent in the twist.
Inside, you also get a tasty treat, as GSC fits the CLS63 AMG with orange Lambo leather and a slew of carbon-fiber components.
What makes the Stealth so bad-ass is what’s under the hood. The 5.5-liter twin-turbocharged V-8 engine was already powerful from the factory – 518 horsepower and 516 pound-feet of torque – but GSC did it one better. The tuner pumped this V-8’s output up to 750 horsepower and 1,150 Nm (848 pound-feet) of torque. This drops its 0-to-100 km/h (62 mph) time down to just 3.7 seconds and bumps its top speed up to 350 km/h (217 mph). That’s a good 0.7 seconds faster to 100 km/h than the stock CLS63 AMG.
Unfortunately, GSC didn’t offer up a price on this beastly kit, but you can contact them at info@germanspecialcustoms.com for pricing details. We’re sure it is somewhere near the €50,000 ($65,000) mark.

Video: Chris Harris at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show:
Chris Harris was at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show and he was among the first to review all the latest supercars announced at the show: the McLaren P1 and the new LaFerrari - two of the greatest models seen in Geneva, and it’s not only us saying it! Along with these supercars, Harris also takes a look at cars like the new Alfa Romeo 4C and the new-generation Golf GTI.
He also took a trip outside where he did a short review on the new Mercedes E63 AMG - a car that apparently did quite an impression on him.
Can you guess which one of the new supercars was his favorite? We will tell you which ones he did not like: the Lamborghini Veneno and the new KTM X-Bow GT. The real test is whether his opinions are shared among other experts or is he just strange?
