Acura CL
You can use it for a long period like a month or more, but when the rest of the car begins to look dirty then you should take it off. Basically, remove before every car wash and wax the car well before putting it back on. You'll have to wash the mask as well since it is likely to collect road debris.
jrent - I am not sure that you got a good trade-in deal. Maybe a thousand more would have been better. You might want to use Edmund's appraisal or KBB next time for future reference. As far as side molding, I've read that some people use the ones for the Accord or bought some custom ones from PepBoys.
crazycl Posts: 2I just brought my new 2001 Aura CALL into the dealership to have the windshield replaced. The Aura person described the problem as "rippling" in the windshield. I drove off in a loner CALL that had the same problem. Then I talked to a friend that has an identical CALL and he said it was the anti-reflective coating!?! Has anyone else noticed the rippling? I notice it on the passenger side when I am in the driver's seat. I also notice it when I walk up to my car (10-15 away) and look at the windshield area from an angle. Straight lines are distorted.
By the way, the dealership has replaced the windshield twice. Same problem. They are now suggesting after market glass. Any ideas?
The Accord Coupe side molding is epoxyed.
With my CL-S I got the Acura Bra. Not to crazy about one of the ways that it goes on under the hood. It hooks with these pieces of plastic in a funny way. But, it fits like a glove and looks wonderful. My car has not been driven with out it and never will. It is not a bad idea to wax the covered surfaces at least every other time you clean the car.
jwk4 Posts: 5I bought the new CL type S. I must say a wonderful car. The owner's manual recommends for the break in: avoid hard acceleration and hard breaking for the first 600 mls. Since I drive 70 mls on the highway and with 2000 rpm, I figure this should work out fine. (correct me if I'm wrong). But my gas mileage seems to be lower than Acura advertises. (30 mpg vs the 22 I'm driving) I now have 350 mls on it. Does the mileage improve???? Do I break in the car correct???
thanks for any response.
Karen_CM Posts: 5,030...but I'm dropping by to see if any CL owners would be interested in having an Acura CL Owners Club on the Owner's Club Board.
Let me know if you are interested!

during break-in interval, I think you should try to vary the speed you drive also. Constant and prolonged driving at one time is not recommended in some car's manual. My mpg during break-in got as high as 24mpg, but I did mixed driving. I've been getting over 28mpg for highway only driving. I've posted my mpg in a news and view topic and earlier in this topic.
Other things to consider, did you use A/C? Did you have windows down? Did you have the moonroof open? How high did you rev the engine?
on a rolling launch ie. those 5 - 60 mph runs that C & D likes to time? The reason I find is that the tranny shifts into 2nd too early. It's like as soon as you start to roll the tranny goes into 2nd. And then when you punch the gas the tranny gets confused and hesitate for a split second between 2nd & 1st before it pops back into 1st.
In my experience, that is common for a Honda V6 engine. I noticed with 2 previous Accord V6 engines I had. It's just a slight pause before the car takes off when you punch the gas.
I now own a Toyota Solara with a V6 and I have not noticed this tendency when i jump on the gas pedal.
I am curious if you notice the same problem when using the "sport" shift mode?
it's the tranny. you can bypass that by moving the shifter all the way back to 1 if you really want to hold 1 that badly.
it may also be traction control/vsa...when you stomp it and it downshifts to 1, it'll probably kick in 'cuz the wheels are on the verge of slipping.
so try turning off vsa/tcs.
Yeah, I tried the mirror adjustment switch in both the neutral AND right positions and it still would not rotate down when in reverse...tho I found it strange I was still able to ADJUST same mirror with switch. I'll have them look at it when I take it in for my first oil change this week--thanks.
A guy at www.acura-ct.com posted a dyno slip of his new TL-S with Comptech headers and a new Cold Air Intake (CAI) ... His dyno slip showed a 30hp increase.
Keep in mind that MSRP on those parts alone are around $1400+ ... But 38hp at the wheels is pretty damn nice =)
It's on the first page. Just keep scrolling down =)
I thought the warmer weather would lessen the rattles. Well it may be true but not for the sunshade. The darn thing has been rattling something fierce lately. Everything is quiet if I pull it shut but I feel claustaphobic with it closed. I'm sure others have posted about fixes for this problem. Does anyone recall if there is a known cure or a TSB or anything?
I am really surprised to read about some of the issues/problems/complaints with the CL, especially being a Honda product. I realize that no car is flawless, but some of these complaints should not be occuring in car in this price range. I can't stand having creaks and rattles in a car.
An Accord I owned previously had a squeek in the dashboard that I could hear but never quite pinpoint the location of to get it fixed. It bugged the absolute (edited for content) out of me for the 2 years I owned the car. I can tell you the stereo sure got a workout to compensate for the distraction.
AS much as I love the 260HP engine and the many standard options available in the CL-S, I don't know that for me it is worth it.
What's up CL-S owners? If you had the option again, would you still buy the car? Perhaps the 2002 will bring about some improvements. Until I hear different, I am leaning towards the 2002 Lexus IS300.
i've had my car for a year now (bought back in end of march '00). only 1 rattle which I fixed myself in 2 minutes.
what other problems are there? the sunroof thing is nothing major, just a design flaw (the thing raises too high so it resonates with the wind, but they have a fix for it).
that's it.
and being made in america, it's not bad at all...if you do get an is300 (made in japan), you'll realize it...is300.net listed more major problems (bottom engine covers falling off, doors popping, nasty smell under hard acceleration, etc.) vs any squeak and rattle in the cl-s. and it wasn't isolated cases either...lexus knew about the engine covers (not major part, just the plastic cover on the bottom...bolts were too tight or something) and doors popping when opened all the way out. i don't know about the smell thing though, but it seemed they (is300.net people) all acknowledged it.
if you ask for problems in a car, people will give you problems no matter how small, but htat's all they give you. you'll only see that side of a car and thinks it's crap.
if you ask for praises about a car, they'll give you praises, no matter how small, but that's all they give you. you'll only see that side of the car and think it's godly.
i have one of the early cl-s's made, no problems at all except for what i mentioned earlier.
take things you read with a grain of salt, but as with all (except the passport) hondas and toyotas, you can't go wrong.
That's a good question. I might look seriously at the 2002 TL-S. But that is really just a CL-S with 2 extra doors (love the front end design though). The Maxima SE would be a definite candidate. Or I may go in a different direction and go for something like a Subaru VDC or a Highlander Limited. As much as I like the design and performance of European cars, I probably would not consider them because of the reliability issue. Bottom line is I still probably would go for the CL-S. I just wish I could have waited for the 2002 model to avoid the first year teething problems. You have to note though that most if not all CL-S problems so far are relatively minor (although annoying)ones such as misfit panels and rattles. No one has reported any mechanical failure.

November 27, 2014
SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (AP) -- The Illinois House has narrowly approved legislative hearings looking into how the Illinois High School Association operates.
The House on Monday approved legislation 55-51 from state Rep. Linda Chapa LaVia. The non-profit association organizes high school sports championships statewide.
Chapa LaVia says she wants to question the IHSA about sponsorship contracts and other financial issues because it receives taxpayer money. The Aurora Democrat says she doesn't want the state to take over the association. She says she wants accountability and transparency.
IHSA Executive Director Marty Hickman said in a statement that the association will cooperate. He says the IHSA has been a "model of transparency" and the measure has unfairly cast the association in a "negative light."

text: I have a (left) menu sidebar that I'd like to allow users to toggle on off. Have code to make it drop down and collapse up, leaving blankspace when collapsed However, it may look better for site to expand content in adjacent pane over to fill in where menu was. Right now menu is in single cell of table and content is in single cell to right, both in same row. I'd like to avoid changing number of cells in row as that would conflict with rows above and below. So one approach would be to toggle between having two cells incl menu and one cell with content but colspan of two. My understanding is that javascript dropdowns work by preloading both versions and then hiding one. Would it be possible to make the javascript change the table structure? Imagine it would look something like below but this does not, of itself, work.

Articles on speaking
Look at specific speaking skills, or broader issues such as motivation in our articles below.
Meetings 2: Getting involved in meetings
Many learners of English worry about their mistakes and allow their insecurities to prevent them from participating in meetings fully. This lesson provides reassurance that such insecurities are very common and normal. It also presents some strategies for increasing their confidence and ability to participate actively in meetings in English. The lesson also warns students that they themselves are responsible for overcoming this barrier to communication. There is also some guidance for learners with the opposite problem: overconfidence and dominance. It is suitable for a wide range of professional contexts, not just businesspeople.
Getting teenagers talking
Getting teenagers to use English in class can provide a considerable challenge to most teachers. This article examines some of the reasons why it can be so difficult and makes some suggestions for overcoming these problems.
Rhythm, rhyme, repetition, reasoning and response in oral storytelling
Live storytelling is a spontaneous creative process which fires the imagination. The listener experiences and participates in the story creatively. If the storyteller allows, the listener can have a direct influence on the story as it unfolds.
Online video for ELT
In this article I am going to explore the use of short video clips in the classroom.
Goodbye game
This activity is great for last lessons of a course, but could be used in other contexts too. It is influenced by an idea from Headway Pre-Intermediate.
Global English and the teaching of pronunciation
The emergence of so many different kinds (or 'varieties') of international English has caused a number of linguists to question the use of native speaker pronunciation models in the teaching of English.
Teaching without a coursebook
Whether you're starting with a new class or just changing direction a little the decision of how to structure a course without a coursebook can sometimes be difficult for a new or even experienced teacher.
Picture books for all
Can I hear you tutting? "Picturebooks for all? But aren't picturebooks for babies and small children?"
Evaluating speaking - the IELTS speaking test
This is the third in a series of articles looking at evaluating speaking, focusing on the IELTS speaking test.
Low-tech learners
Many teachers who have tried to take an English class onto the internet have often come back with a similar problem - students who are reluctant to work on computers.
Using Social Media in the Classroom
I'm a big fan of social media. Facebook, Twitter, blogging platforms and other 'web 2.0' sites offer users the ability to publish their thoughts and exchange ideas with a global audience.
Group secretary
To motivate everyone to take part in a group discussion and listen to each other, I sometimes ask them all to be secretaries and take notes on what they discuss and any opinions people in the groups have or decisions they make.
Lateral thinking
I like to use this activity to promote recognition and then practise the past continuous. It utilises a well known lateral thinking puzzle.
When did you last...?
This is a simple activity to set up and gives Elementary level students plenty of opportunity to speak and practise using the past simple.
Managers and management training
Management vacancies that arise in LTOs (language training organisations) can be filled by candidates recruited from outside an organisation but are frequently taken up by teachers selected/promoted from within the organisation's current staff.
Vanishing Dialogue
This activity practises language of ordering food in a restaurant although this can be adapted for any scenario. It's a great way to consolidate the language and recycle the vocabulary.
Art in the classroom
As the saying goes, 'Art is all around us'. In its many forms it presents fantastic opportunities for discussion, focused language work and skills-based activities.
Arts and crafts with young learners
Using arts and crafts in the classroom can be an excellent way to facilitate language learning with young learners.
Audio exchange project
I was teaching a monolingual group of 12 teenagers (15-17) at upper-intermediate level who were following a course book. The students were motivated but they needed a 'real' communication task, the opportunity to communicate with students who didn't speak Russian or Ukrainian. I decided to record them and send the tape to students in a non-Russian speaking country.
Blogging for ELT
This article takes a look at blogging, which is becoming increasingly popular as a language learning tool.
Comparative plips and plops
I like to use this activity to promote the use of the comparative form. It is a fun guessing game that encourages creativity.
Concordancers in ELT
Over the past decade there has been a huge increase in the power and abilities of computers to digitise, store and analyse text.
Connected speech
Teaching pronunciation used to involve little more than identifying and practising the sounds of which a language is composed, that is to say, its phonemes.
Connected speech 2
An advanced student of mine speaks both clearly and usually correctly, but can often sound over formal and at times stilted.

N.O.R.E - Gangsta's Don't Die
Artist: N.O.R.E
Featuring: Jadakiss
Producer: Hazardous Soundz
Album: Student Of The Game
Avg Rating: 3.4 ( 9 votes )
If you grew up in the 90's, you have most likely seen the classic baseball flick Sandlot. One of the more memorable lines in the film, besides "You're killing me Smalls," is "Heroes get remembered, but legends never die." Besides legends there aren't too many things I can think of that are immortal, but according to N.O.R.E's latest release I have something new to add to my list. On the first single off his forthcoming solo album, the Queens emcee recruits fellow New Yorker Jadakiss to tell us Gangsta's Don't Die. If gangstas don't in fact die, though, you may be wondering what they do with all this time? Have no fear, N.O.R.E has all the answers. As the Hazardous Soundz production cracks, the emcee born Victor Santiago Jr. lends his raw vocals to the hook to inform lisenters "Gangsta's don't die they get chubby and move where the f*ck they want." Care to find out what else gangsta's do with all that time? Be sure to hit the books because N.O.R.E's new album, Student Of The Game, will be release soon.

Microsoft Match!
Microsoft will DOUBLE your GIFT on Tuesday, Dec. 2, 2014 at 7am & 1pm
Microsoft has selected "I Have a Dream" as part of it's Global Youth Spark Initiative and on #GivingTuesday December 2nd at 7:00am-7:30am and 1:00pm-1:30pm they will match donations up to $500 per donor, dollar-for-dollar.
This isn't just any matching donation, it's actually a race with other selected nonprofits to raise the most funds in just one day until Microsoft's matching limit is met. To qualify for the match, donations must be made at 7am or 1pm on our GlobalGiving project page! These are opportunities to increase your donation at no additional cost to you.
Help a Dreamer Family with Adopt-A-Family
Each holiday season, "I Have a Dream" seeks community members to "adopt" Dreamer families to help provide them with gifts and brighten their holiday celebrations. Companies, private donors, and "I Have a Dream" board members and mentors, among other volunteers and community members work to fulfill the needs of all the Dreamer families, which can range in size from two members, to up to ten in some cases. Each Dreamer and his or her family submit a "wish list" of gift ideas that are approximately $30. Donors are matched with wish lists and then gifts are gathered and distributed to the families. We also offer the option to "Adopt-A-Center" which allows supporters to donate items to one of our six learning centers throughout Boulder County. Donations made toward the Adopt-A-Center initiative will benefit over 50 Dreamers and guests who utilize those facilities year-round, after school and during the summer. Last year we also started the Adopt-A-College Dreamer program to involve our Dreamer alumni who are away from home and in college, by sending them care packages. It was wonderful to witness the different ways community members put together creative packages to support our college Dreamers during their finals.
If you have any questions or want to sign up as a donor, committee member, or a volunteer, then please contact the Adopt-A-Family Coordinator at 303-444-3636 x 20 or by email at email@example.com.

Budd, on the other hand, can be viewed as a shorter form of saying "buddy". Bud - D. Of course, it is just pronounced as "bud". It is important to remember the appropriate usage of this word when texting or networking.

Officials from the FDA are today discussing the possibility of creating a real designer baby. The baby would be made from the DNA of three parents, two women and a man, and would be designed by scientists to be resistant to genetic disease.

Keywords: designer babies, FDA, ethics
LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - The Food and Drug Administration is evaluating whether to grant researchers from Oregon Health and Science University in Portland permission to carry out a procedure that would create a "designer baby" using genes from three parents. The baby would be resistant to certain genetic diseases, the researchers claim.
The FDA is meeting with scientists and other experts to determine if the procedure is safe enough to use in people. Scientists have already succeeded in carrying out the procedure in monkeys.
Unfortunately, the discussion is purely about the safety of the procedure from a secular, scientific perspective, and it does not weigh the ethics of the practice.
The FDA is asking the panel to evaluate the risks to the mother and child as well as how future studies could be performed using the procedure. What uses will the procedure have in the future?
The procedure can be conducted both before and after the moment of conception.
The procedure is intended to reduce the incidence of genetic diseases which can be passed from mother to child via their mitochondrial DNA. It also eliminates disease passed on in nuclear DNA, half of which comes from the father. About 1 in 4,000 people suffer from such diseases according to the National Institutes of Health.
In 2009, the procedure was performed on monkeys, which were born healthy and have done just fine. The procedure was then tested on fertilized human eggs -that is to say embryonic children. However, FDA rules prevented the implantation of the eggs into women, so the development of those lives was ended.
Worldwide other children have been born with transplanted DNA since 1997. About 30 such children live today. Some scientists say the wellness and well-being of those children should be evaluated prior to greenlighting this procedure in the United States.
Unfortunately, the procedure raises a lot of ethical questions which remain unanswered. Just because a procedure is safe, from a secular, medical standpoint, does not meant that it is ethical. It must be considered that humans were not designed to have more than two genetic parents, and there are concerns about fertility procedures, the creation of life in a laboratory, and its subsequent destruction.
A go ahead decision from the FDA could eventually become an okay to manufacture true designer babies with custom traits, such as high IQ, specifically colored eyes and hair, and sex.
It should be remembered that the practice of splicing genes, altering genomes, and treating the unborn as genetic donors and living experiments, is hardly ethical from the perspective of Faith and the Natural Law. Catholics are hardly Luddites, and there is great power in medicine, but our practices must be ethical.
Above all, we must respect all life from the moment of conception to the hour of natural death. The embryonic person must be recognized as a whole person, a life which has the right to be and is manufactured by God, the Creator who endows it with a soul.
In fact, this line of argumentation barely scratches the surface of the ethical debate. Unfortunately, the FDA may be preparing to rule already and the public will have little knowledge, or warning, before a final decision is made with terrible moral consequences.

My introduction to the best-kept secret in fitness begins with a video that both inspires and intimidates me. I'm watching Pyrros Dimas, a three-time Olympic gold medalist from Greece, prepare for an Olympic weight-lifting competition. Pound for ripped pound, he's one of the strongest men on the planet.
Dimas is hoisting a bar so loaded with plates it looks like a truck axle with the tires attached. Again and again, he tosses the weight from the floor over his head in one quick, graceful motion, almost casually. And that's just his warmup. In competition, Dimas once lifted 474 pounds over his head--considerably more than twice his body weight of 187.
"That move's called a snatch," says my trainer, Shane Miller, as he rewinds the video. Miller is the head trainer at Carl and Sandra's Physical Conditioning Center, a gym in Santa Fe, New Mexico, where I've come for a 2-hour beginner lesson in Olympic-style weight lifting. It's not that I have any Olympian aspirations; I'm here because the Olympic lifts, as they're called, have no equal for developing speed, flexibility, and coordinated, total-body strength and muscle.
Interestingly, there are only two official Olympic lifts: the aforementioned snatch and the clean and jerk. For a visual, think of the snatch as a deadlift, barbell shrug, jump squat, and overhead squat performed consecutively in one fluid motion. The clean and jerk? A combination deadlift, upright row, front squat, and push press.
To underscore the effectiveness of these movements, consider that in the most basic measure of raw athletic ability--the vertical jump--Olympic weight lifters excel above all others. "When I worked at the Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, we measured vertical jumps of athletes in nearly every sport," says Michael Stone, Ph.D., a professor of exercise science at Eastern Tennessee State University. "And Olympic weight lifters had higher average jumps than all other groups--basketball players, gymnasts, sprinters, everybody."
Even the bulkiest Olympic heavyweights make astonishing leaps. Shane Hamman, the top American lifter in the history of the sport, weighs in at 350 pounds but boasts a vertical jump of 36 inches. Most NBA players top out at 34 inches. Not only can Ham-man dunk (he's 5'9"), he can also drive a golf ball 350 yards.
Then there's the pure vanity aspect. The Olympic lifters who aren't heavyweights are among the leanest--they're certainly the strongest--athletes in the world. One study of elite athletes found that Olympic weight lifters burn almost as many calories per day as marathoners do, and another reported that, on average, the lifters have as little as 5 percent body fat. Granted, these men are moving more than 175,000 pounds in a typical training week, but they also eat 6,000 to 8,000 calories a day.
So what is it about the Olympic lifts that works such magic on the human body? Most simply, they engage nearly all of your muscles to move weights farther and faster than conventional exercises. In fact, each repetition takes only a second or two from start to finish, which allows you to target your fast-twitch muscle fibers. These are the muscles with the greatest potential for size and strength, and the ones that are typically ignored in most men's weight workouts.
At this point, you might be wondering why, if these Olympic lifts are so great, you seldom see them practiced in gyms. The main reason is that they're technically difficult to perform, says Miller. Unlike a biceps curl, which requires little or no instruction to perform safely, these maneuvers call for a qualified instructor to teach you the nuances of each movement. Otherwise, you'll put yourself at risk of injury or, at the very least, perform them incorrectly. Which is, of course, why I've come to Miller's gym in the first place.
But while anyone can find an instructor at the USA Weight lifting Web site (www.usa weightlifting.org), it turns out there's also a shortcut to experiencing the Olympic advantage. You see, the unique aspects of the Olympic lifts consist of two distinct parts: the "pull" phase and the "catch" phase. During the pull, you explode upward, yanking the barbell off the floor and in front of your thighs, as if you were trying to jump out of the gym. In the catch, you quickly move your body under the bar and catch the weight on your shoulders or above your head.
"In my experience, 95 percent of the benefits of Olympic lifts come from the pull phase, which is the simplest part of the movement," says Alwyn Cosgrove, C.S.C.S., a certified USA Weightlifting coach in Santa Clarita, California. "And almost all of the technical difficulties occur during the catch phase." That's why Cosgrove has eliminated the catch portion of the movement from nearly all of his programs, and why you can forget about it, too. "Most men need to worry about the catch only if they're interested in competing in the sport," he says.
To enable lifters at any level to benefit from these exercises, Cosgrove has broken down the Olympic lifts into their four most effective movements. (See "The Olympic workout," on the next page.) Incorporate them into your routine and you'll build muscle and strength, burn fat, and boost sports performance faster than ever before. In fact, consider whatever you've been doing up till now preparation for your real workout.

Cuba may have been restricted politically and economically for the past 50 years, but its borders have remained open to wildlife for which Cuba's undeveloped islands are an irresistible draw. While many islands in the Caribbean have poisoned or paved over their ecological riches on land and in the sea in pursuit of a growing tourist industry, Cuba's wild landscapes have remained virtually untouched, creating a safe haven for rare and intriguing indigenous animals, as well as for hundreds of species of migrating birds and marine creatures. Coral reefs have benefited, too. Independent research has shown that Cuba's corals are doing much better than others both in the Caribbean and around the world. Buy the DVD.
