GM Introduces New Hybrid Pickups

General Motors will introduce a new hybrid full-size pickup and a concept hybrid truck this week at the Chicago Auto Show. The company says that the 2009 GMC Sierra hybrid gives 25 percent more in fuel economy and you don’t have to lose anything in performance. The Sierra is also the next large GM vehicle to get the new two-mode hybrid system. The GMC Denali XT concept gives 50 percent more in fuel economy than most other small pickups. The SUV hybrids are suppose to be on the market early this year and the Sierra is suppose to be on the market at the end of 2008.

Two-mode hybrid cars run without the gas engine at low speeds and at higher speeds the electric motor gives more power. A two-mode system is good for towing.

Hybrid vehicles initially cost more but drivers can driver longer distances before the car needs to be refueled so you can save money in the long run. Small businesses can take advantage of the government tax breaks for hybrids.

Wisconsin Teacher Arrested For Blog Comment

The post disturbed some people, but some people found it as just a comment on educational spending. The comment was posted on http://www.bootsandsabers.com, which is a blog about Wisconsin politics.

The teacher, named James, Buss, wrote how he felt that teachers were lazy and paid too much money for working 5 hours a day. The statement he made about the Columbine shooters was that “They knew how to deal with the overpaid teacher union. One shot at a time!” He also wrote that the shooters should be remembered as heroes.

The comment disturbed another teacher, who called the police. The police arrested Buss at his home last week after they received his Internet Provider address. He spent an hour in jail and then was released on $350 bail. The Washington County District Attorney is unsure whether to charge Buss with disorderly conduct and unlawful use of computerized communication systems or not. The school district may have the right to discipline Buss. Buss has been placed on paid administrative leave until the school district decides what to do
