Does a Lame E-Mail Address Really Matter?
But AOL gives free IMAP... (1049 comments)
I use AOL for all my e-commerence and potential OMG I might get spammed communication. Nothing really WRONG with them. It's leave my gmail basically spamless. I tossed yahoo and hotmail long ago due to crappy archaic policies that limit your access to web only unless you pay them. *Yes Microsoft has pop3 access OHHHHH WOW POP3 in a world of imap... it would be like me bragging I just got a dial-up in a neighborhood full of DOCIS 3.0*
Though I understand the reasoning. It's like "Dress like your ready to come to work and be promoted" and I do respect that. Though to delete it without even checking the resume inside? It would be like not even talking to the guy who showed up dressed nice but not suit and tying it. Let's be honest AOL has some stigmata but it's not like showing up to an interview in Flip Flops and a No Fat Chicks t-shirt
Maybe if your a person, looking to see if the place your applying for is a bunch of jerks, then go ahead and use that AOL address. They delete your email without reading it maybe you didn't want to work there. The filtering can work both ways.
Then again if your REALLY worried about this while job seeking. My advice is get an account on a domain you think would get you looked at. This doesn't cost THAT much *if anything at all* and then you can know you didn't get a call back because 7 years as Fry Chef at Burger Ranch doesn't qualify you to run a MySQL Database.
P.S. I know I could do stuff like, run a server on my own pop addy. I could use my ISP email. I know I could do a million other things but let's face it these big companies are not likely going anywhere and its an easy thing to do.

Sources: Scott Fujita career in doubt
Cleveland Browns linebacker Scott Fujita, one of the four players who has battled NFL commissioner Roger Goodell over alleged bounty violations, is now confronted with a neck injury that the team and doctors believe could possibly end his 11-year career, according to league sources.
AFC North blog
ESPN.com's Jamison Hensley writes about all things AFC North in his division blog.
Fujita was inactive Sunday, having landed on the injury report Thursday with a neck and shoulder injury after missing two practices.
Neither the Browns nor Fujita were available for immediate comment.
Fujita spent last week blasting Goodell after receiving a reduction in his original bounty-related suspension.
Fujita sent out a statement on Wednesday that called out Goodell for "an absolute abuse of power" and described Goodell's actions as "conduct detrimental" to the NFL.
Fujita spent four seasons with New Orleans before signing as a free agent with Cleveland in 2010.

The family that owns the land doesn't want anyone digging up their property for a ship no one has proved even exists.
"It has been my experience, more times than not, a legend like this, there is some basis of truth," Smith said. "Because it has been around long enough that they have named it Barkentine Creek. That alone makes me think that there was, or is, something buried out there."
A barkentine is a kind of sailing ship.
Smith has brought the landowners to federal court in a case titled Smith vs. Abandoned Ship, and has argued he has the right under maritime law to dig up a ranch he doesn't own looking for a ship no one is sure exists.

Serves 6 or more
- 2 1/2 pounds Yukon gold or all-purpose potatoes
- 3 cups half-and-half
- 2 cups shredded Gruyère cheese, about 6 ounces
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Peel potatoes. Slice potatoes very thin with a sharp knife and put them in a medium pot with half-and-half, 2 teaspoons salt, and freshly ground white pepper. Stir well and simmer the potatoes for 15 minutes, or until they are just beginning to soften.
Transfer potatoes and half-and-half mixture to a shallow medium casserole. The liquid should come just to the tops of the potatoes. Cover evenly with the shredded cheese. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until potatoes are tender and cheese is golden brown.

Reasons for Presentation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Statements made in this release include non-GAAP financial measures. Such information is provided as additional information, not as an alternative to our consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, and is intended to enhance an overall understanding of our current financial performance. Such measures are also used to determine a portion of the compensation for some of our executives and employees. We believe the non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to management, investors and prospective investors by excluding certain charges and other amounts that we believe are not indicative of our core operating results. These non-GAAP measures are included to provide management, our investors and prospective investors with an alternative method for assessing our operating results in a manner that is focused on the performance of our ongoing operations and to provide a more consistent basis for comparison between quarters. One of the non-GAAP financial measures presented is Adjusted EBITDA, which we define as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization plus stock-based compensation expense, non-recurring charges and transaction-related costs. Another non-GAAP financial measure presented is cash EPS, which we define as net income plus transaction-related costs, write-off of deferred financing expenses, equity-based compensation expense and amortization of intangibles, divided by outstanding shares. These terms might not be calculated in the same manner as, and thus might not be comparable to, similarly titled measures reported by other companies.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

stocks12 Posts: 3My 2002 RX did the same thing. Turns out that the gromit in the rear to channel the water from the roof popped out, flodded the compartment with the NAV and shorted the board out. My dealer quoted me almost $5K for a new unit. I bought one off of eBay for $750, installed it myself (very easy as I am not mechanically inclined) and it works perfectly. I did need a new disk as the software was updated. Hope this helps.
gitmo Posts: 23Hello, I'm new to the forum. I just purchased a 2000 RX 300. It has 81000 miles on it and I was wondering if I should change out the ATF and engine oil since I don't really know when they were changed last. Also, without looking under the car, how can I tell if it's 4wd or not? Probably a stupid question, but I don't know for sure, I just picked it up last night.
Thanks for any help. -
la4mead Posts: 347Yes, I would definitely have the transmission "serviced" (not "flushed") by a qualified mechanic who uses Type IV (Toyota) fluid (but definately not a corner lube stop!). This model has a history of early transmission failures, however maintainence seems to be a big preventative help. If the fluid has a dark or "burned" odor, or you do a lot of idling or low-speed driving you may consider changing at ultra-frequent intervals.
There is also a well-known oil-gelling history if the intervals are long or heat builds up as it can, so it's a good idea to have frequent engine oil change intervals to help avoid a problem.
For 4X4 you can look under the middle of the car for a drive shaft leading from the front (engine area) down the middle tunnel to the rear (differential) and then side driveshafts to drive the rear wheels. If it's front wheel (2X4) drive, that stuff won't be there, but there will be a "G" as the third character in the VIN.
If your headlights are getting cloudy (likely due to being left out in the sun/weather), don't use anything abrasive on them. I've seen products specifically to help with this, but never had to use them. Perhaps plastic polish might help if it's on the outside. If they are fogging on the inside, it's because they've gotten cracked by an impact or the seal was otherwise breached, perhaps where the bulb was replaced. :confuse: -
gitmo Posts: 23Thanks a lot for the tips, I'll take care of it right away. I checked the trans fluid and it seems to be fine, also engine oil looks very good.
As far as I can tell, there's no rear differential. Did you mean "G" would be third character in VIN of two wheel drive?
Thanks again for the help. -
gitmo Posts: 23Hello,
I was wondering if anyone has had to replace a master key. y car came with only one key (master) I'm thinking I should probably get another one in case of loss, breakage, etc..
I know the dealer charges big$$, also where are the key code #s? like I said, I only have the one key.
Thanks a lot for the help. -
pschiffe Posts: 373If you have one original master key, a locksmith who specializes in high security vehicles can add additional keys for considerably less than most dealers charge. If the one key you have is not an original master key, it is necessary to replace or reflash the ECM to add additional keys.

kmh2468 Posts: 62I ran into the same problem with changing out these bulbs...
I found this site that was very helpful:
hope this helps! -
la4mead Posts: 347Thanks kmh for passing this on. He has some very useful tips for do-it-yourselfers. I was a member on Club Lexus, and this guy is, too. You can also link to them from his site.
It seems he's been compiling his DIY notes and took the time to post them on his website for others to see and benefit from. I added the link to my CarSpace favorites. -
mikey00 Posts: 462Something to know. If you ordered oem Lexus pads, the front pads come without a wear indicator on them. This is a small metal clip that contacts the rotor and squeels when pads are almost gone. Just use the wear indicator from the old pads. The rear ones have the wear indicator.
Also regarding your CEL. Most common cause is the gas cap not on good. Second most common seems to be when someone opens the top on the air box to check the engine air filter they disconnect the hose located directly behind the air box and below the brake fluid resovoir. Other than those 2 and the MAF, you will need codes. -
gitmo Posts: 23Thanks for the brake tip mikey. I checked the fuel cap and it was tight and the tube from the air cleaner box is also connected. I'll see what the guys find in the way of code today. The car runs great though, oil is clear, atf is pink and clean. According to average MPG on the display I'm getting 11.5 around town. That's about the only difference but that thing doesn't seem to be accurate all the time.
I'll let everyone know what turns up. -
gitmo Posts: 23Hello,
When I got my car, it came with only one master key. I've read about how flimsy these keys are (and expensive) I came across a great site: sparekeys.com you can have a shell key made for $60.00. When your cheap original breaks, just slide out the "brain" from the broken key and drop it into the new shell key, now you have a new master key that they promised me is much stronger than the original. Also, I did not have my key-code available so I called them, nice people, and really helpful. All I had to do was give them my VIN#, address, credit card# and the key goes out today.
Still waiting to hear about my CEL codes. I'll spill my guts when I find out.
cheers -
gitmo Posts: 23Hello,
I picked up my car from the mechanic today. (2000 FWD rx-300 81,000 mls.) Code shows: p1130
p1150 two front Oxygen sensors: bank 1, sensor #1 bank 2, sensor #2
He re-set the CEL and said everything is fine on the car. He will install sensors if I want them...do I? Is it a real need? I had a BMW and the mechanic used to just re-set all the time and I was fine.
Also, I was wondering about the oil jelling complaints. If a lot of owners are taking their cars to the quick change places for oil changes, tranny, etc... I know the oil filter on this car is a B**** to get to. So, that said, I would bet a lot of these places are skipping the filter change and just replacing the oil...IMHO maybe I'm wrong but how many of us check to make sure? Hmmmmmmm :confuse: -
jiamin Posts: 556I just had my 00 RX300 45K service done. I thought about skipping it however I had it done. Bdfore the service, when the car was cold or for the first 10 minutes or so, I always heard a very high pitch sound like metal pieces rubbing. It was not loud but I could heear it with windows open or closed. It does not change whether in "D" or in "N". After car completely warms up, it disappears.
Forgot to mention this to the service dept, but after the service, it is completely gone. I paid $458 for this service.
My RX300 has very low mileage, 43500 mile now. So far two failures. (1) the "D" bulb went out a few weeks ago and I replaced it; (2) the door lock/key fob control failure which costed my about $600 for the module replacement.

text: I have lost weight many times before and gained it back, and usually, EVERYONE knew I was on a diet, and would try to get me to go off of it! My husband would get extremely sick of me talking about food and diet, and friends and relatives would tell me, Just one cookie won't hurt. Well, this time I didn't want anyone in my business!! My weight is my own concern anyway. I have been losing weight, over a fairly long period, and haven't said anything about it to anyone! It has been actually really helpful. Every once in a while someone who hasn't seen me in a while will say, " Have you lost weight?" and I say," Hmm I don't think so. Maybe." Because it takes the pressure off! It's no one's business if I weigh X amount. Obviously my husband noticed after a while that my clothes were hanging off, so I told him, must be because I've been walking more. But when no one thinks I am dieting, no one tries to get me to go off my plan! I eat normal food in smaller portions anyway, so it is much better if I don't have people looking over my shoulder or saying "Is that all you're eating?" It has really made it easier. I think it will be easier going into maintenance too, because just because I am at goal, people will say" you are thin enough, eat more!!" But if they don't know I was TRYING to lose weight, they won't and haven't been food pushing! Anyone else tried this approach? :)

For all you first-genners out there putting on aftermarket bumpers, here's an idea. This is still in the "experimental" stage -- my dad and I bench-tested it -- but I'll have an actual, working update in 2 weeks when I get my Elite front bumper installed.
I wasn't happy with the idea of hacking up my corner light housings to fit a larger, 2 filament bulb or any of the other options, so in talking with my dad and a little trial-and-error in our bench testing setup, we've devised this plan:
The Setup
Using a 3-2 wire tail light converter (most often used for trailer tail light/turn signal applications), we can combine the corner light and blinker signal for each side into the oem bulb and wiring.
This will allow the corner light to be on and then blink when the blinker for that side is activated, then return to off or on (depending on whether or not the headlights are on)
- A 3 to 2-wire Tail light converter (Link)

- Various tools (wire stripper, needle-nose pliers, solder gun, etc.)
I'm terrible at drawing schematics, but hopefully, this graphic gives an idea of what's going on here. It's pretty simple. Basically, the blinker lights are wired as marked and then you run the corner light signal to the tail light input on the controller.
Enjoy! I'll be updating this post with pictures and video when I do the actual install.

This refers to the highly readable article "But do patients listen to doctors?" by K. Ganapathy (Open Page, Jan. 29). While ignorance of patients is a cause for inappropriate health care, the overload of information is also responsible for excessive investigations and treatment. The tech-savvy patient, loaded with information from 'Dr. Google' makes all 'relevant' suggestions to the doctor, to the great pleasure of both the doctor and the patient. While the doctor can charge a hefty bill, it is reimbursed by the patient's employer. The doctor hands out a laundry list of treatment options as "whose bread you eat, his song you sing."
T. Rama Prasad,
I could not agree more with the Professor regarding patients' impatience to go through the natural course of common diseases. A common cold or flu is caused by virus and a patient should look for symptom relief rather than demand an antibiotic or indulge in self-medication. It is the doctor's duty to educate patients and help them with their illness. Where is the evidence behind giving vitamin injections to patients for general weakness and making them dependent on them?
D. Sadhana,

NYU Department of Ophthalmology Residency Program
First-year Residents (PGY-2)
The first two weeks of residency are spent exclusively on an intensive course in basic ophthalmologic diagnosis and examination. After this orientation, the residents begin a three-month Basic Science course in basic ophthalmology, two hours per day. The first-year residents are also responsible for seeing patients in clinics in order to apply the didactic material to clinical patient care. Following the completion of the Basic Science Course, the residents assume a more integral role in direct patient care. This includes outpatient clinic visits, in-patient hospital consultation, minor surgical procedures and laser surgery. First-year residents are responsible for primary call at all of the five sites.
First-year Rotations:
Note: Each block consists of six to seven weeks.
Second-year Residents (PGY-3)
The major portion of this year is spent on subspecialty clinics and supervising the first-year residents in the General Eye Clinic. The second-year residents assume a greater leadership role in directing patient care, triaging patients and managing consults, as well as performing more complex surgical and laser procedures throughout the year. In addition to the general eye clinics at these hospitals, the residents are in charge of the various specialty clinics that meet on a weekly basis.
The second-year residents direct the entire Bellevue Hospital
outpatient services and ophthalmological consultation service, which provides a unique
opportunity to examine various eye conditions not normally seen in a routine office
practice. The second-year residents split the primary call responsibilities at MEETH
with the first-year residents. When on-call at Bellevue , the VA, and Tisch, the
second-year residents serve as medical back-up for the first-year residents on primary
Second-year Rotations:
Note: Each block consists of seven to eight weeks.
Third-year Residents (PGY-4)
The seven third-year residents serve as the Chief Residents at their respective locations. The major portion of the year is spent in taking care of the surgical patient. The nature of the surgical procedures from each institution provides a varied and complete picture of all aspects of surgical ophthalmology. All surgical procedures are performed under the tutelage of an attending surgeon with the most modern equipment available. Emphasis is placed on appropriate pre- and post-operative evaluation in order to develop good surgical judgment. In addition, two residents each year are selected to serve as the Executive Chief Residents, who in addition to their administrative responsibilities, serve as liaison between the residents and faculty.
Third-year Rotations:
Note: Each block consists of seven to eight weeks.
The residents are intimately involved in medical student
teaching. This involves didactic instruction when the medical students attend the
various departmental conferences, practical instruction in the normal history and
physical examination of patients seen together in the various clinics. Medical students
are invited to observe ocular surgery in the inpatient and outpatient facilities. They
are evaluated by the resident staff.

We used this forum and its vast knowledge and resources in 2007 when we built a gunite pool/spa at our old house. Now, having moved, we are getting the itch for a pool and trying to decide if we want to take the plunge (pun intended) once again. Last time we used South Shore Gunite, a large, reputable company that delivered, for the most part, a good, solid product. However, communication was lacking, and when we decided to do our pool deck outside of their company versus staying in-house, they gave us some trouble. They just didn't have the pattern of concrete we wanted at the time. I understand the quality control issue, so I don't fault anyone. It was just more stressful all around. So, we are looking again. We think we will stay with gunite, though a local company does excellent work with vinyl/permacrete. (Two labs make us think this is just a bad idea all around so I am reading up on it.) Two of the companies we are looking at are small and sub out most of the work. We will do the standard checks, but wondered how people who have worked with the smaller companies have found the relationship with the subs and the builder. I don't want a lot of finger pointing as I experienced that last time when I didn't stay in house. A lot has changed in seven years, but prices aren't that far off with the one quote we have received. Decking seems higher, but equipment isn't that much more. Any advice from the Massachusetts crew who have built in the last few years would be much appreciated, as well as any other thoughts. Thanks and looking forward to reading and joining the discussion once again. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Sorry, no pool wanted here in the Midwest. Have a beautiful beach to get sand in the toes. |
Try Drakely Pools. He is one of the best in the north east. If you want a Shotcrete pool done correctly he is the one that knows how to do one. |
So interesting. I was just reading about him. One of the companies coming out to meet with us is involved with the Genesis Design group. I was looking at their website and he is very involved and also an instructor. Sadly, they are closer to New York so a bit out of our range. Perhaps this company has some of the same education and values, so I will ask the question. Thanks for the information, though. |
If you are talking about Jamie Scott you can't go wrong on him either. I am a member of Genesis myself and believe strongly in their program. The construction schools are better than anything the APSP puts on. Generally it will cost you more to have a Genesis member build a pool for you but you are getting a pool built correctly and you will get what you pay for. |

Subtle Live-Reloading With Grunt & Compass
As a workflow nerd, I'm a huge fan of GUI tools like Codekit and Hammer, which automate basic development tasks like concatenating scripts, compiling CSS pre-processors, and auto-reloading the browser when changes are made to certain files: specifically, loading new CSS into the page after styles are edited in the code. Recently, I decided to take off the training wheels and learn the basics of Grunt.js to have more control over this process, and I hit a snag when I was setting up automatic browser reloading.
Usually, auto-reloading tools inject new styles into the page without requiring a full refresh – which is useful for making targeted, subtle tweaks without changing the state of the page or application. Unfortunately, the basic auto-reload setup most of the official Grunt examples show doesn't actually provide that feature, opting instead to automatically refresh the page after any change.
I'm not badmouthing the Grunt folks here – I cobbled this together from issue threads, comments and several different examples – and there are bound to be subtleties in the documentation that beginners like myself will miss. I'm going to lay out this Compass + LiveReload use case as straightforward as I can, all in one place. I will assume you know the basics of setting up Grunt itself, and focus on just the relevant parts of my Gruntfile. And if anything below is incorrect, embarrassing or could be done better, please find me on twitter and set me straight.
Here is the basic Gruntfile I started with, which uses LiveReload in conjunction with the grunt-contrib-watch and grunt-contrib-compass plugins:
module.exports = function(grunt) {
// configure tasks
pkg: grunt.file.readJSON('package.json'),
compass: {
dist: {
options: {
sassDir: '_sass',
cssDir: 'css',
config: 'config.rb'
watch: {
options: {
livereload: true
css: {
files: ['_sass/*.scss'],
tasks: ['compass:dist']
// load plugins
// register tasks
The particular section we're dealing with is this:
watch: {
options: {
livereload: true
css: {
files: ['_sass/*.scss'],
tasks: ['compass:dist']
What I'm doing here is setting the watch
task to check for changes in my _sass
folder, where I have all my uncompiled stylesheets. When something is changed, Grunt runs Compass to compile the changes and then activates LiveReload. The behaviour that I expected (smoothly injecting new styles) doesn't happen – instead, the whole page refreshes.
Now, I don't know exactly why this happens, but thanks to some helpful threads on Github, I found a fix. As far as I can gather, the problem comes from the way I told the watch
task to monitor various file changes. Regardless of the specific reason, the end result is the same: LiveReload has to load all the new CSS and then refresh the page, and can't determine what's changed and only inject the new styles.
The following is how I fixed it (credit to the linked Github issues above):
watch: {
sass: {
files: ['_sass/*.scss'],
tasks: ['compass:dist']
css: {
files: ['*.css']
livereload: {
files: ['css/*.css'],
options: { livereload: true }
So, what's different here? I've split off my monitoring of Sass and CSS. When files inside my _sass
directory are changed, Grunt runs Compass and compiles them, spitting out new files into the css
directory. Separately from that, Grunt watches the css
directory, and when files are updated it runs LiveReload. Something about the separation of tasks here achieves our goal: smoothly injected CSS styles without a full page reload.
Does this sound a lot like voodoo? It sure does to me. The lesson I learned is this: when you're responding to changes in a compiled file, don't watch for changes in that file's source. Watch the file itself. If anyone out there knows what's really going on here, please tweet me and let me know.

Jennings completes Macc move
Iron striker Connor Jennings has completed a six month loan move to Macclesfield.
Iron boss Brian Laws was keen to move the former Stalybridge Celtic frontman on, either permanently or on loan, to free up funds for further transfer dealings.
Jennings, who struggled with injuries last term, has fallen further down the pecking order at Glanford Park with the arrival of the experienced Deon Burton.

cms images required
Been searcing for ages and can't seem to find the type of images that would fit my design or, when I can, I can't find them all in one 'matching' set.
I need images for the following purposes and they are to be put on a white background. The main header colour of the site is #2a2e66 (the background) and the only other main colour is #ff0000 though this is a star in the logo about 75px square. (small but significant/noticeable/distinctive).
Any colours you choose to use must work with those two. images must be more cartoon-like than photographic and preference will be given to those who can make them appear almost funny or at least amusing.
subjects to which the images must relate are for my cms:
web page editor
seo editor (editing meta data)
reservations diary
bookings set up
mailing list/info broadcaster
account details editor
There is no explanatory text required in the graphic as this will be done in the xhtml and styled in the css.
images need to be of same size; around 60x40 px.
I have no idea what the rate should be and I wouldn't wish to undervalue the work involved
10 images in total.
This is for a new launch cms which will have exposure to the web design industry. Therefore, a lesser quote will be rewarded with a link to your portfolio or site conditional on it being (web), design related content. 125000 viewers in past 6 months and only 5 small sites, live.

The Hunter B is part of the Resistol Bison collection which features felt hats containing the finest natural fibers blended with American bison fur. This unique mixture creates head wear that is durable and water repellent. This fine looking 4X Buffalo fur blend western cowboy hat boasts a 4" gus crown with a profile 40 and a 5" back. The brim measures at 4" and is bound around the edge. For a fine finishing touch, there is a wide grosgrain hat band with a bow on the side.
Just received my Resistol Hunter B in Chocolate .......... Absolutely stunning purchase. I gambled on I size up.... but very,very pleased with the quality and colour. Many Thanks
This is the best darn hat I have ever owned and it cuts the mustard here in the Dakotas. Great for the price definitely a Dakota Deal! You want an all weather working hat this is the one for you.
I just love the Hunter B buffalo fur felt hat from Resistol. I live here in South Dakota and this part of the state is not the city of Sioux Falls. We are in the middle of every where but to outsiders you?d think it is the middle of nowhere. This hat fits in, this hat is the best durable fine fitting hat a man could own! This is a hat for the frontier and that is where I live out in the old frontier. Bust buy for the buck. Defiantly a Dakota Deal!
Resistol cowboy hats are the legacy of a company started in the 1920s to make stylish, high quality Western hats that would "resist all weather." The mission remains unchanged today, as Resistol has become the largest hat maker in the world, producing a choice of cowboy hat styles and materials for every use, and for men, women and children. The Garland, Texas facility is home to a full manufacturing process, delivering hats in fine materials that range from their own wool felt, to Mexican palm, bison fur, and more. Working cowboys rely on Resistol hats for maintaining comfort during the hard wear and tear of everyday use. Choose the perfect profile and brim for your needs. These hats are supremely functional, but they haven't forgotten the details and flourishes that distinguish each piece, like a leather band with three-piece buckle on the Bankston, or the Resistol hatpin and feather on the Bull Bash B, part of the Tuff Hedeman Collection. In Hatcountry, most hats are in stock and ready to ship, while selected hats are special order and made to production, requiring four to seven weeks delivery.

Lincoln 3
Lincoln developing a Mustang-based coupe
Ford wants to pump some life into Lincoln so the latter could feature a new rear-wheel drive coupe in its line-up. Based on the Ford Mustang, the vehicle depends on the success of the 2013 MKZ and/or 2014 MKD (or whatever name the compact CUV will get). If things don't end-up too well for Lincoln, Ford will probably decide to axe the old American brand.
If the two models do become a success, a Ford Mustang-based Lincoln RWD coupe will be unveiled somewhere near the end of 2015. The ride will follow other new models such as the MKS, Navigator, MKX and a Ford Explorer-based model.
Ford Inside News also mentions that the coupe could be powered by a V6 2.9-liter EcoBoost engine and will have a slightly longer wheelbase than the Mustang. The vehicle will be designed exclusively as a coupe, but Lincoln is reportedly thinking of a full-size RWD flagship model based on the next-gen Mustang to come out before the end of the decade.

2011 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid
Lincoln premiered today their first ever hybrid model, the 2011 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid at the New York Auto Show. The MKZ will use Ford's new hybrid powertrain that features a 2.5L four cylinder engine and en electric motor that develop a combined power output of 191 HP.
Ford claims that the Lincoln MKZ Hybrid has a better fuel consumption and it's also faster than it's direct rival, the Lexus HS 250h. The Lexus HS 250h returns a fuel usage of 35 mpg in the city and reaches a top speed of 25mph in electric mode while the MKZ delivers a fuel consumption of 41 mpg in the city and could reach speeds of 47 mph in electric mode.
Lincoln will launch the new MKZ Hybrid on the market in the fall of this year.

2011 Lincoln MKX Facelift Revealed
Lincoln has premiered the 2011 facelifted version of their Lincoln MKX at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit. The 2011 Lincoln MKX comes with a lot of exterior styling upgrades and features a new front grille, revised bumpers, new headlamps, fenders, a new hood, a redesigned rear bumper with integrated oval exhaust tips, new LED taillights and a new set of 18″ wheels.
The car's interior is also upgraded and it's more luxurious than its predecessor featuring a MyLincoln Touch driver connect system that replaces buttons, knobs, gauges with LCD screens and five way buttons like those from cell phones.
These LCD screens can be personalized to display information relevant to each driver with just a simple button click, voice command or touch screen tap. The 2011 Lincoln MKX also comes with a Voice Activated Navigation system, iTunes Tagging, HD radio, Adaptive Cruise Control and Collision Warning with Brake Support.
The new version of the MKX is powered by a 3.7L Duratec V6 engine with Twin Independent Variable Camshaft Timing which delivers 305 HP and a maximum torque of 280 lb-ft. With this engine, the car has a combined fuel consumption of 25 mpg. Lincoln also installed other upgraded parts such as a sportier suspension and a high performance braking system.

TLDR – What do Students Think of North Americans?
Ok, so hopefully we won't get any comments about us overgeneralizing, or painting Koreans in a bad light, or painting Westerners in a bad light, or us doing something that gets some hypersensitive person butthurt. This was a difficult question for us to answer, and we tried to do so with trepidation.
If you're new to this segment of ours, every Thursday we answer the top rated question from our Google Moderator page. Last week we were asked about our funniest stories in South Korea. This week Pinkpancakes18 asked the top-rated question which was "What are some of the weirdest things your students think about america/canada?"
Now, this wasn't an easy question to answer. We wish there was something like "oh they think all Canadians/Americans like chicken and watermelon" or something clearly inaccurately stereotyping. But it wasn't that straightforward. There were just some cultural differences that lead to some misperceptions. Again, allow us to say that not all of our students think this way. The three points that we go over are just the common reactions we got from our students. And so, on with our list!
1) North Americans have lots of guns:
This is an easy one for us to dispel. Martina's never even seen a gun before in her life. Simon, for all his gangstaisms, has only seen one before, but never actually held one. In fact, it was his father's hunting rifle. Anyhow, we don't know anyone else who has guns, either. We see guns all the time on TV, though, and in video games, but never in real life, and we think this is the case for a lot of people. Moving on…
2) North Americans are rich:
This is an easy for one as well. We sure ain't rich! We're not poor, either, but we're not wealthy. We would get this reaction from our students whenever we showed them pictures of our homes back in Canada, which are by no means large. Martina's parents live in a nice bungalow, but it's…just a nice bungalow. You'd probably drive by it and be like "oh, that's a nice bungalow." The reactions we'd get from students, though, would be far more extreme. Like "WOW TEACHER YOU ARE SO RICH!" and lots of oohs and aahhs. We're assuming their reactions are so strong not because Korean people love bungalows, but just because houses aren't really common in the Seoul and surrounding area. People mostly live in apartments and officetels. We haven't seen anyone with a house in Bucheon or in Seoul. Korea doesn't really have a lot of land mass, and since the population density is so high here, there isn't a lot of room to build houses everywhere, while in Canada there's oodles and oodles of land, and a smaller population than South Korea.
3) North Americans are…floozier?
This one's a bit more difficult to explain. Students have asked us if we kiss or hold hands on a first date, and, well, yeah, we sometimes do. And that's amazing to our students. Then they watch stuff like Gossip Girl and think that we're skanks. Oh boy.
Anyhow, what's interesting about this is the difference in propriety. Hugging between sexes isn't common in Korean culture, while we – as Canadians – don't really have much wrong with hugging someone goodbye. But that's a big deal here! On the other hand, Korean people of the same gender can hold hands when they walk together and it not mean anything, while to us, it would mean that they're dating. Hmmm.
So that's it for this week. Woohoo! We almost answered the Love Story question that keeps on making it almost to the top of the question list. We're glad that we didn't answer it yet. Three Thursdays from now, though, will be our 4 Year Wedding Anniversary, so maybe then it'll be appropriate? :D On a side note, this was the first video we ever shot in our new apartment! Yay! What you saw is a bit of our kitchen, which is what we did for our last TL;DR, so we thought we'd keep it kinda consistent :D
Filed Under:
My question is that, do south Koreans find brown, white and black people attractive like normal people not celebrities?
I was talking to a Japanese guy on Skype and he was under the impression that all American girls sleep with a guy before they date them. ….. When I told him this wasn't true he was really shocked and I think he thought I was lying lol.
What is your favorite Korean song and why? Also i love your eat your Kimchi youtube channel and i hope you come up with lots of F.A.P.F.A.P S, WANKS, K-POP MUSIC MONDAYs, and lastly TL;DRs
Wow. I'm like browsing through all your TLDR vids and this vids is so funny and so informative. You guys really know how to make it clean cut and not stereotypes ;) *thumbs up*
I do not know about other United States's states, but in North Carolina (near Washintong D.C.), we do not even see guns, not even kidding, very boring or the old people call it peaceful place here, so if you lucky to see a real gun then wow, big shocker. We do however see a lot of pepper spray lol So, watch out guys ;) Dont mess with the woman/ladies/girls now :P
I'm a Thai-Viet-Chinese-Cambodia girl and can says stereotypes is so funny to me since I'm always laughing when they ask me if I can says something in Mandarin (Chinese) or start to speak Thai with me and I would put this face on like wth are you saying. *I only speak English and Vietnamese and a bit of Mandarin btw*
Side Notes: For all Foreigners, please understand that when we speak and it may sound like fighting or fast but most of the time it's really not it. So don't think we are always fighting. Lots of people ask me that and I would goes um… no..? And not all Asian are smart >_<
lol a lot of people in Washington and Oregon own guns because there's forests to hunt in! :DÂ
XDD lol you used the music from You're beautiful XDDD But I get what they mean.. XD Just like on your other vid. how people think the Korean boys are girl.. It is kinda similar.. sorta XD
My grandmother is Korean and she's huge on the skinship thing. I think she believes you'll be forever labeled as a slut if you come in contact with the opposite sex…I find it quite hilarious at times. Especially when she gives people the stink-eye for holding hands in walmart.
About #3, a lot of people from Asia believe North Americans and Americans do act the same way as the characters do in the media. Went I went on vacation in Asia, the couples from some countries displayed a lot of public affection for each other.. a bit too much (to the point where you just want to scream, "get a room!"). When I asked some of my relatives about it (the ones living there), they said that the younger couples do whatever they do in public because they want to be "Americanized", or they will say, "This is how people do it in America, so what is wrong with us doing it, too?" If only they knew that there is a limit to public affection and how annoying (and perhaps disturbing) it can be when you go a bit too far!
I do think that's true; when you see complaints about an idol being too sexy or something, a lot of times, America gets pulled into it, about the idols becoming "too American".
The truth is that…people in France (or just Paris, from my experience), are like this a lot more…in the subways, on the streets, in restaurants, stores, whatever–couples just make-out. Like PASSIONATE I AM EATING YOUR FACE make-out. But people are just like eh, whatever, when they seem these couples, while it makes foreigners somewhat uncomfortable. Like honestly, I have never see so much public make-out sessions EVER.
Its not just Asia either. One of Spanish teachers was talking about how she lived in Mexico (I think) for a year, and when she first got down there she had people asking her if life in the US was really like it is in 'American Pie' haha.
I live 45 minutes from El Paso ,TX and I have seen a lot of people with guns…My best friend and I always joked about her father taking his gun to kill the guys she used to date. We even convinced our best friend Jesus that if her father saw him with us he was going to be a dead man jajajajajaja now he knows we were joking but he almost pee himself when one time we went to pick Noe up from her parents house and her dad was there looking at him with a "who is this punk" face jajajajajjajaja.
LOL, Nice! I'm a Texan but I've never seen a gun in real-life before xD I'm from the city tho :O
But yeah, the skinship thing is hilarious. I showed my sister Boys Over Flowers and there was one scene where Jun Pyo hugs Jan Di in slow motion from behind and there was sad/violin music playing in the background as if it were a big romantic scene or whatever. I turn to look at my sister and she was like, "Uh…I don't get it." xD-
Ha! Â I know that scene, and had the exact same reaction! Â Actually, no: I burst out laughing as well :D
goooooooooooooooooooooooooooood information!!! actually when I met one girl at first, we were just normal friend but when we leave after having a meal. she hugged me I was embarrased however I was happy and I'm gonna followe the rule of western!! haha
Easy on the Texan stereotypes :P But I suppose they do permeate the world:Â http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kXJ-oAq2XZg
My dad used to actually take out his gun when my sister brought home a new boyfriend and he'd be all, "See this nice bullet," and he would let the boyfriend hold it and that boyfriend would always look like he was going to pee his pants. haha
Haha… My dad says he's going to bring out his gun if I try to bring anyone home w/me… except… he doesn't have bullets in. That's a good thing, right?
I spent a year and a half in Tokyo, back in 2003, and it's interesting to me that all of the stereotypes you guys mentioned are things I was told by my Japanese friends/students about Americans. (We keep our guns in our bedside drawers, apparently.) I also had a very, very awkward hugging experience with one of my Japanese friends, who decided she wanted to give me a hug after I talked about how much I missed the casual hugs I was used to doing with my American friend. So awkward!!Â
That's interesting to hear about Koreans and hand-holding, because the only person in Japan that I ever held hands with was a Korean girl who lived in my dorm. Now I know why! -
There's barely any one who owns guns where I live but maybe I never cared to know? o_o
hmmm. . your house seems to be cool!!!
I'm a Texan and I agree that we almost all own guns haha. It's ridiculous. I've never touched one myself, but my family has one in the living room in case of an emergency. It may be dependent on where you live in Texas, though, because some places aren't as scary as others.
Hahaha! Ya no, not all of us in Texas own guns. Sure, we love our 2nd amendment but not all of us own them. However i'm sure that everyone knows at least one person who owns a gun :) just like how we dont all wear cow boy hats and ride horses to school.
lmfao. Someone from New York, I think, asked me if kids in Texas ride horses to school xP I stopped talking to her after that…
Reallly? Though I'm not surprised, I've heard that before.

Wow i can relate to Korea, where i live, it's the same thing!!
If all I knew about the US was American TV/Movies*, I'd think everyone was pretty much "SKANKee"! (to use your terminology) FYI- Owner of 2 old shotguns, neither in working order…not exactly "Deliverance-worthy" stuff.
Tennessee, US*Does this mean I shouldn't judge all of S.Korea by the K-Dramas I watch?

I think you haven't seen guns because you lived in Canada. I'm in the United States and it's guns galore here. Even in California, which is misconceived to be more on the democratic side of gun control debate, many people have them for fun. As a lawyer, I can also vouch that there is a ridiculously excessive amount gun-related accidents, injuries, and deaths here as well.
If I laughed when you mentioned about Joey, Pacey & Dawson's Creek, does that make me old? LOL!
I friggin' watched that and I ALMOST forgot I did! Damn…watched this cause I was curious & I always watch your VLOGS but this just made me nostalgic about those days I watched Dawson's Creek, Party of Five, Edgemont, Popular, Wasteland, 7th Heaven and all those other ancient TV series haha!
Anyway, LOL! BTW…Is that your cupboard beside Martina? Really cute! Love your new place :)Â
BTW…belated happy anniversary guys :)
Love that you mentioned Dawson's Creek… yes I watched it!
 Well not everybody owns a gun but you got to be careful because maybe the crazy neighbor does ,as well as my mom …LOL.. And about the houses in Korea can of a shock at first and more if you are claustrophobic I always used to nag about our house having 2.5 bath but when I came back I was so grateful …
happy 3rd anniversary and 4th anniversary of ur wedding. plz tell us ur love story cuz u guys were just made 4 each other.
I do live in Texas and sadly do not own a gun….but I have had the opportunity to use them…to shoot targets of course. Interesting note..if I'm correct In Texas you can apply for a license to carry a gun around like say while your out running errands or to the mall. What can I say, it is Texas.Â
ive been there before, it is sortof scary, cuz a crazy guy can have one then suddenly pull it at you! at first it seemed safe. but idk, at the malls i see some gangstaz walking around and idk what to think if they have a gun or not
That depends on what side of Texas you're in. If you're in the city like Houston or Dallas, its not very common (unless you're part of a city gang), but in the rural areas, yeah, you might need to watch out.
True story! Thats a CHL. :)
I live in Texas…my Dad owns like 6 guns haha. But we are all very friendly!
Not all Americans are rich..do Koreans know about trailer parks and The Projects? Take them on a tour of some of those hollars in the West Virginia hills. Then they might think a little different.
umm.. PinkPancakes18 is my bestest friend ever(: just so you know.Â
I watch both American TV shows and Kdrama. and to be honest I feel nothing when i watch the love scenes on American TV shows but somehow  with  kdrama a hug can flip me up i get million DOKIS  !!Â
i would like you guys to show us your new apartment :D i am curious about it :) thank you
So…my Watermelon Chicken Smoothies kiosk is NOT gonna become the next national franchise chain? Dammit. Ok, where's my Glock? I've gotta find me some new, ah, revenue streams. Â
did you guys move and get a new apartment if so could you make a video on it?
It's hard to imagine the whole generalizations about guns and stuff. I live in the Bay Area of California and the only guns I've ever seen are locked up in a case my uncle has for hunting and stuff (like a man). I was casually reading up on some misconceptions that British people have about Americans and the same thing came up, startlingly often actually. It seems like a lot of the misconceptions or stereotypes derived about Americans, in particular, are taken from stereotypes of the Southern lifestyle. The second most common one was that everyone is obese which is glaringly untrue (though many of us should probably change our habits).
I know that gun ownership is pretty common in the south eastern United States where I live. People still use them in this part of the country because they can't afford to eat otherwise. Gun ownership in America started way back in the 17 hundreds when the British kept confiscating peoples firearms. Guess Americans have long memories.
i thought all north americans are rich to when i was in korea. now i am living in canada and realized NOT ALL of them are rich but they are living in house :p
PS loving the Texas answer~ as a Texan I approve |D

Orsanmichele, Florence
Tel: 39 055 284944
Concierge.com's insider take:
Orsanmichele demonstrates just how closely religion and trade were intertwined in medieval Florence. First a chapel on a Benedictine monastery, it was turned into a granary, which at the beginning of the 14th century became a kind of secular temple to the city's powerful trade guilds. This explains the building's odd foursquare appearance, and also the statues of the guilds' patron saints on the exterior—each one commissioned from a leading sculptor. Today, those on the outside are copies: The restored originals, including Donatello's St. Mark and Ghiberti's remarkable bronze John the Baptist, are housed inside. Note that the museum is only open on a Sunday due to ongoing restoration, but the once impenetrable church, with its splendid Gothic Madonna and Saints by Bernardo Daddi, now has regular opening times.
Church open Tuesday through Friday 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Saturday and Sunday 10 a.m. to 7:30 p.m.
