Mercedes-Benz Hexawheel Concept - Off-roading gets a new meaning

By -






The Hexawheel concept is a design study of an extreme off-road vehicle which combines a six-wheels layout and a flexible frame with a Mercedes-Benz-inspired design language. It was designed by Iranian engineer Siyamak Rouhi Dehkordi.

Created by Iranian mechanical engineer Siyamak Rouhi Dehkordi, the Hexawheel Concept is an extreme three-seater off-roader targeted to adventurous customers and people who need to move in extremely diffficult conditions and terrains.

Inspired by the jointed structure of insects, the Hexawheel is capable of overcoming large obstacles thanks to its flexible frame, which is combined with a six-wheels layout and an all-wheel-drive system.

The frame has two degrees of freedom and is operated with a hydraulic system; the diesel engine is coupled with a flexible hydraulic power transmission system.

Th main dimensions are a total length of 4.8 meters, two equal wheelbases of 0.95 meters and a ground clearance of 46 cm, while the weight is equally distributed among the three axles.

The exterior design uses angular shapes and an industrial look, interpreted for the Mercedes-Benz brand.

Bates Motel Season 1 Episode 1 review

Just Special!!!! Did we ever in our wildest dreams believe that we would get to see Norman Bates in his formative years and the crucial role his mother would play to nurture him into the guy, who would'nt even hurt a fly. Bates Motel Pilot Episode is the best first episode for a TV series I have ever seen for a long time. It was a scorcher par excellence. It started slow and steady, but by no means boring. I felt it would be one of those pilots, where you would get to know the characters and then just a simple eerie ominous end.

Blood Stone Language Fix

There is a problem if you buy a cracked copy of Bloodstone, the latest James Bond Game -its fairly old, but what the heck!. Guess what? It runs, but the language is in Russian and even the subtitles and also the game options, so it becomes mighty hard to even get to the game- screen and play.
What's the fix.
Its damn simple.
1. Go to the lanugages.txt and change it from \'ru,en\' to \'en,ru\ 2. Rename (audio_ru.pak) Change To (audio_en.pak)( Location - cache folder) The audio will remain in Russian, but the game menu will change to English, so the best you can do is change the subtitles to English and play the game. Otherwise, if you are dying to hear Daniel Craig's voice, support the developers and buy the game.

Construction sector - Exit GMR and add Unitech, Lanco, JP Assco

GMR has been doing very badly in the past 6 months and at this point in time I feel it makes most sense to exit this counter and head for greener pastures. If I would like to reinvest in the same industry I feel Unitech, Lanco & JP Assoc seems like the best options respectively. As per the below diagram the we can see that Unitech is currently trading at about a Rupee less than GMR but at the same time has made 55 times more profit that the later.
