From the battlefields of World War II to the sand dunes of California, perhaps no other vehicle brand is as entwined with American history as Jeep. It's fitting, then, that Chrysler decided to celebrate the iconic brand's heritage at this week's North American International Auto Show in Detroit, unveiling special 70th Anniversary editions of new Jeep vehicles.
HIGHLY ANTICIPATED VINTAGE SURF AUCTION RETURNS TO HONOLULU Biennial Event Lures Collectors from Around the World
HONOLULU (February 17, 2009) - Mark your calendars! With 5 months to go, the fifth biennial Hawaiian Islands Vintage Surf Auction, presented by Quiksilver Premium, is set to raise the bar on international surf auctions once again when it returns to the Blaisdell Center, Honolulu, on July 17 & 18. Over the past four auctions more than $1,500,000 of the finest vintage surfboards and surf memorbilia have changed hands and over $75,000 has been donated to various charitable causes and foundations.
This year's auction is already shaping up to be the biggest and best yet. As has become the tradition, veteran surfboard designers, shapers and manufactures will be in attendance, including Matt Kivlin, Joe Quigg, Greg Noll, Dick Brewer, Ben Aipa, Bing Copeland, and Ole Olson, amongst a host of others.
Surf stars of the '60s the likes of Jock Sutherland, Fred Hemmings, Ricky Grigg, Joey Cabell, Buffalo Keaulana and many others will also be on hand. They will be joined by short board pioneers of the '70s & '80s: Pipeline Masters Gerry Lopez, Rory Russell and Jeff Crawford; as well as world champions Mark Richards, Peter Townend, Shaun Tomson, and Tom Carroll, all of whom will have personalized surfboards from the various eras. They will be joined by revered Hawaii surfers Larry Bertlemann, Barry Kanaiaupuni and Bobby Owens.
Never-before-seen surfboards have been unearthed, including an ancient 1850 breadfruit board, turn-of-the-century redwood planks, hollow paddle boards, design-changing early wood/fiberglass prototypes, big wave "guns" of the '60s, and pro boards of the '70s and '80s.
Along with the treasure trove of surfboards will be an eclectic selection of Hawaiian-theme artwork, surf contest items, unique island-influenced surf memorabilia, some of the first images of surfing ever depicted in print from Missonary times, off-beat surf a
Everyone loves a clean car, but washing a car is actually dirty business for the environment! Did you know that it's actually greener to take your car to a commercial carwash than to wash it at home? According to International Carwash Association washing your car at home actually wastes 80-140 gallons of water and the toxins from washing your car end up in your storm drain, polluting rivers and streams. Washing your car at a carwash only consumes 45 gallons or less and commercial carwashes are required by law to treat the water so it doesn't pollute the earth.
If you do chose to wash your car at home, make sure you find eco-friendly products. You can purchase biodegradable soap at Simple Greenor make your own! Also, try not to use your driveway, but wash your car on your lawn. This way the toxic water can be absorbed and neutralized by the soil.
There are even ways to wash your car without using water at all! There are some carwashes that use the waterless technique, which includes a solution that is sprayed on the car and then wiped away with a cloth. You can search for a waterless carwash in your area; just make sure they use eco-friendly products. You can even buy your own waterless car wash products on the Freedom Waterless Carwash website.
Let's have a sparkling clean car and a sparkling clean planet!
Think Green When Washing Your Car
If you must wash your car at home, choose a biodegradable soap specifically formulated for automotive parts, such as Simple Green's Car Wash or Gliptone's Wash 'n Glow. Or you can make your own biodegradable car wash by mixing one cup of liquid dishwashing detergent and 3/4 cup of powdered laundry detergent (each should be chlorine- and phosphate-free and non-petroleum-based) with three gallons of water. This concentrate can then be used sparingly with water over exterior car surfaces.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Oct 27, 2009 - Los Angeles, CA
Long Beach City's Police Department and Freedom Waterless Car Wash announce a partnership in a pilot program to clean their Black and White police vehicles spotless and shiny using NO WATER.
On October 29th, 10am, Thursday, on the steps of Long Long Beach City Hall will be the formal unveiling and announcement of the Freedom Waterless Car Wash Pilot Program in partnership with Long Beach City Police Department.
With the cooperation of Mayor Bob Foster's Office of Sustainability, City of Long Beach and the guidance of Meredith Reynolds, Long Beach City's Sustainability Coordinator, and David Elliott, Founder of Freedom Waterless Carwash, the city's finest have agreed to roll out a pilot program whereby their current method of hand washing police cars will be substituted with Freedom Waterless Carwash.
Freedom Waterless Car Wash is a 99% biodegradable cleaning product that effectively cleans vehicles in an ultra eco-friendly way. Each car will be cleaned using two plush, microfiber towels and 2-5 ounces of cleaning product made from a special blend of water, soaps, lubricants, waxes and polymers. The towels can be washed in the washing machine and be used over and over again.
Car washing by hand can use up to 80-140 gallons per wash.* [From the International Carwash Association]. Commercial car washes use approximately 45 gallons of water per car wash. The runoff from hand car washing contains contaminated water laden with harmful chemicals, soaps and oils from road grime that gets stuck to the vehicle while driving. This contaminated water can leach directly into the soil and eventually into local waterways, thus creating environmental damage and polluting our precious watershed systems. Most commercial car washes flush the used "grey water" into the sanitary system, creating more water and chemicals to process.
Freedom Waterless Carwash creates NO toxic runoff and only uses a few ounces wate
If you enjoy driving a clean car but can't spare the time to visit the car wash as often as you would like, Mobile Green Wash (MGW) is for you. And if you want a new car for the New Year but can't afford one, then give your old car a facelift the MGW way.
With the revolutionary MGW, long queues at the car wash, waiting in discomfort, the risk of car-jacking and accidents by careless car-washers, are all things of the past.
MGW's Clean+Green+Mobile services offer customers the flexibility of having the cars washed at wherever they are - at home, the office or golf club - without creating a wet mess and with no sign of the bucket, hose, shampoo and suds.
It uses instead professional car-care products with no surface-unfriendly chemicals so your paintwork is safe.
Mobile Green Wash, Malaysia's first mobile waterless carwash, started when Nicholas Lee, 29, was a student in Australia, a country which practices water conservation.
In a 2008 visit to the United States, Lee was exposed to the concept of conscious car care and he returned home with ideas to develop a car-cleaning method that saves water and protects the environment.
"We advocate conscious car care while saving water and caring for the environment," said Lee, an electronics engineer, who spent 12 months researching and testing various products on his family cars before introducing them to MGW.
MGW is the sole representative of the US-made products that are modified to suit our tropical climate.
The products incorporate intelligent use of wetting agents, lubricants and polymers designed to seal in protection and add shine to a car's surface.
The MGW car wash uses 10 pieces of fine quality microfibre cloths on each car in a three-step method - spray-on, wipe-off and buff-up.
Using the cloths, the service team scrubs away embedded dirt and wipes surfaces. They never re-use the same cloths before they are thoroughly machine washed.
A team supervisor checks the vehicle's internal a
