Hausse- Rest in peace
Mats Geier known as "Husse" has passed away. Husse was a member of Linuxmint team : "Many of you knew him as "Husse". He was everywhere, especially on the forums, making sure everyone was welcome and that every question was answered. I remember he used to keep an eye on the "unanswered threads" list and would even reply to some of my team announcements with "replied" just to make sure it wasn't getting in the way of him supporting everybody that might need it. He was also taking care of the weekly newsletter and he was starting to triage bugs on Launchpad. Husse was also helping with the testing of the ISOs as much as he could and he was a very important member of our team. When the community
grew, he filled the gap between the users and the developers and he was the one bringing important things to our attention, and keeping us close to you all. He was passionate, he was extremely friendly and he'll be missed tremendously." Mint Blog
I was posting frequently links of tutorials related to linuxmint on their forum, but one time one of the tutorials was deleted, i contacted hausse as usually, so this was the last email i received from him :

Man charged with elderly Murray woman's homicide
Prosecutors have charged a man with killing an elderly Murray woman and setting fire to her home earlier this year.
Investigators allege that on Jan. 25, Christen James Spencer killed Shirley Sharp, 84, who lived alone in the home at 20 E. Winchester St. (6400 South).
Spencer, 49, was charged Tuesday in 3rd District Court with aggravated murder which is potentially punishable by death aggravated burglary, aggravated kidnapping, aggravated robbery, aggravated arson and failure to stop at the command of police.
In the early morning hours of Jan. 25, a Utah Transit Authority officer stopped a 1991 maroon Buick LaSabre for driving in a bus-only zone at 5144 S. Cottonwood Street. But the driver took off when the officer was speaking with him, according to the charges.
The UTA officer wrote down the vehicle's license plate number and traced it to a Buick LeSabre registered to Sharp. Police dispatched to her home found smoke pouring from the small, red-brick residence. They called firefighters to the scene, who doused the flames in Sharp's closet and found her bound and beaten body inside the house.
The Murray City fire marshal determined someone had intentionally set the fire, while an autopsy determined that Sharp had died from blunt force trauma to the head.
Officers eventually identified Spencer as the man who had been driving the LaSabre by studying security footage of a traffic stop and discovered that he was already in custody. He had been arrested Feb. 5 on a probation violation-related federal warrant and was in the Davis County jail, where he remained on Tuesday.
Officers who had arrested Spencer discovered he had a prescription bottle belonging to Sharp's late husband.
At the place where Spencer's was living, officers found property missing from Sharp's home, including dresser drawers and their contents, as well as a blood-stained sweatshirt, according to the charges.
DNA on the inside neck area of the sweatshirt matched Spencer's, and the DNA found on the inside right hand sleeve matched Sharp's, according to the charges.
"The work of Officer Tolbert, the UTA officer, really needs to be commended for being quick on his feet ⦠and having initiative to putting the evidence together," said Salt Lake County District Attorney Sim Gill on Tuesday. "He really needs to be commended for the great job that he did, along with the Murray police detectives."
While the specific nature of Spencer's alleged probation violation was sealed, federal court records do show that he had pleaded guilty in April 2005 to drug and firearms charges.
In Utah, 3rd District Court records show Spencer has a criminal record going back to 1997, which includes convictions for forgery, theft, credit card fraud and possession of a controlled substance. In 2011, Spencer was charged with stealing credit cards from a Salt Lake City housemate and using them to withdraw $400 from ATMs, according to charging documents.
Sharp was a well-known resident on Winchester Street, ever since she and her late husband, Richard, moved there in 1952. Richard Sharp and his brother Virgil once owned Sharp Foods, a grocery store just across the street from their home, which is now occupied by a strip mall. The store closed in the mid-1970s, around the same time that Richard Sharp passed away from cancer, said Sharp's nephew R.D. Gatherum.
"She was a great lady, absolutely salt of the Earth," he said about his aunt not long after her death. "She was one of the sweetest ladies you would ever meet. I just can't believe this happened."
Though she lived alone, Gatherum, who lives about a mile away from his aunt, said he and her sons would visit her often to make sure she was OK. Both the state of Utah and a building owner each wanted to buy Sharp's home to develop on the property, but she always refused.
"She just wanted to be in the house where her husband lived," Gatherum said in January.
No court dates had been set for Spencer as of Tuesday.

This Town is a reworked version of the track featured last year. It still sounds like a refugee from the White Album if Lennon had replaced McCartney with Ariel Pink but produced in a studio instead of Ringo's shed. Like fine wine it's got better with time and if you missed it last time round now is the time to take a sip. Twisted ballad The Letters sounds like the product of a drug induced dream from the mind of Syd Barrett.

Why would the kid that got in trouble stealing the copper even be allowed to attend prom? Guess he talked his way out of that one, making people think he didn't do anything wrong? He should be banned from all school functions!

Third Party Designee
Sometimes taxpayers want to allow a friend, family member, or other selected person to discuss their tax return with the IRS, for instance, if they will be overseas, or in the case of elderly parents who wish to have an adult child handle their affairs, or if a personal representative (executor) is filing a return for a deceased taxpayer. The designee should:
Volunteer tax preparers must never be designated as the third party designee.
Publication 17 provides details on what the taxpayer is authorizing when designating a third party designee.

Six Nations: Billy Twelvetrees inspired by his England heroes
Billy Twelvetrees will be looking to England's heroes of the recent past for inspiration when he makes his international debut against Scotland this weekend.
The 24-year-old centre, picked in place of the injured Manu Tuilagi, plays alongside former national skipper Mike Tindall at Gloucester and grew up watching the World Cup winning team of 2003.
He said: "Jonny Wilkinson, Mike Catt, Will Greenwood - those were the sort of players I looked up to.
Billy Twelvetrees profile
Date of birth: 15 November 1988
Place of birth: Chichester
Position: Centre/fly-half
Clubs: 2008-2009 Bedford Blues, 2009-2012 Leicester Tigers, 2012- Gloucester
"Mike has given me the confidence to believe in what I do well. He's very good at bringing a calming influence, but he's a similar sort of player as me in terms of his physicality. He's always taking me to one side to nurture me."
While the absence of Tuilagi to an ankle injury is a blow to England - the 18-stone 21-year-old scored one try and made two others in last December's famous defeat of the All Blacks - the partnership of Owen Farrell at fly-half and Twelvetrees at inside-centre gives the side a different dimension.
With a strong kicking game, bruising defence and experience of playing 10, Twelvetrees has a depth to his game which should keep him in the reckoning even when Tuilagi returns, as he is expected to, against Ireland in Dublin on Sunday week.
"Owen and I are both very ambitious players," he said. "We want to control the game. We can kick and pass, but we both like getting our heads in the dark places too.
"We've been building on that relationship this week, having sit-downs and chats together. We want it to work perfectly for us. You have to understand your fly-half as well as the people outside you, and that will grow with me and Owen.
The former Leicester man insists the unique atmosphere of a Calcutta Cup match at Twickenham will not stifle the form that has made him one of the Premiership's stand-out 12s this season, with Catt - now the side's attack coach - there to guide him.
He said: "In a weird way, I've always enjoyed being nervous. I like looking forward to what might be, whether it was my Leicester debut or this.
"I see it as just playing rugby, just catching and passing and playing with your mates. Having a red rose on your chest is no different. You still play with the same passion and excitement. I've always enjoyed the bigger audience.
"You've got to relish it, or there is no point in doing this job. I play because I love it, and this is the biggest stage. I've always dreamed of it, and I can't wait to run out."
In the corresponding fixture a year ago, England coach Stuart Lancaster blooded seven new players. That Twelvetrees is the only debutant this time around does not mean the team is much more experienced.
Four players - loose-head Joe Marler, hooker Tom Youngs, lock Joe Launchbury and full-back Alex Goode - will be making their Six Nations bows, but Twelvetrees believes all are ready to impress in the fierce atmosphere of one of the game's great rivalries.
"Any player coming into any team has to think about themselves and what they can add. Otherwise there is no point in being there," he said.
"I want to take every chance I'm given. Whichever team I played in growing up, players often got their opportunity through injury. You have to make it your own.
"I have to impose myself and get my hands on the ball, otherwise there is no point in being there. I have to show everyone what I can do."
Twelvetrees's first Six Nations memory is England's defeat at Murrayfield in 2000, when a ferocious display by the underdogs denied Clive Woodward's men a Grand Slam.
England's Six Nations fixtures
- 2 February: England v Scotland
- 10 February: Ireland v England
- 23 February: England v France
- 10 March: England v Italy
- 16 March: Wales v England
"I was pretty devastated about it," he admits. "I recorded it, because I was playing that day, and watched it when I got home.
"I was absolutely gutted. And then a year later they lost against Wales at Wembley. I remember as a spectator being really frustrated. It made me want to play for England and win a Grand Slam."
The youngest of four brothers, Twelvetrees credits his move from Tigers to Gloucester for his development from the national second-string Saxons side into fully fledged international.
"Playing week in, week out in a very competitive Premiership would help anyone. For me, having partnerships with Freddie Burns, Mike Tindall and Henry Trinder really improves my game and gives me confidence in what I can do."
He first trained with Lancaster's squad as injury cover during the autumn internationals. But it was his inclusion in the elite player squad announced in January that gave him the confidence to believe he truly fitted in.
"It confirms that you're worthy, that you're one of the best in England. I was honoured, and it gave me the incentive - right, I've been named in the squad, now I've got to get into the team.
"Each training week is pretty short. You're not out there very long, so you have to take the opportunity to prove to the guys around you what you're good at."
Twelvetrees - famously nicknamed '36' by former Leicester team-mate Geordan Murphy, as in 12 times three - grew up in Sussex, where his father Kevin is a tree surgeon.
But it is the maternal side that is responsible for that rather neat nominative determinism. His father changed his original surname of Fentiman to his wife Beverley's when realising how his business could benefit from the Twelvetrees handle.

As a Scot, I can honestly say I would much rather we were playing against Manu, think 12trees has real potential and far more guile about him than the one dimensional Tualangi, suppose we will find out on Saturday
Comment number 17. Posted by D G Hooperon 1 Feb 2013 16:08
His hero is Mike Tindall. That means he will be a regular in the Red Tops - expect to see 36 there then.
Just hope his rugby is up to it. In truth in poor weather, 2 fly halves has worked well for us before - think Wilko n Catt.
Comment number 16. Posted by 1stDec2012on 1 Feb 2013 14:30
i hope im wrong but i feel the backline is imbalanced with goode at full back and brown on the wing. I thought Goode was in to add some ball playing in the absence of a greenwood type centre. Now we have one (12Ts) wouldn't it be better to have a more traditional full back?
Comment number 15. Posted by GM Massingbirdon 1 Feb 2013 10:25
I think with 36 at Inside Centre (I won't say 12) we're going to have a good 3 options of kick, pass or charge, all three he's good at. I just hope that under pressure he does the correct one at the right time.
Comment number 14. Posted by yorkshireheroon 1 Feb 2013 10:14
Hopefully he'll show what many believe - that he's the most complete 12 in england and in time form a good combination at 10, 12, 13 with farrell and manu.
Comment number 13. Posted by Anglophoneon 1 Feb 2013 09:36
The nickname explained! I always got the joke but the fact that it was coined by Geordan Murphy with a suitably Irish accent makes it work all the better.
His dad is a tree-surgeon! You couldn't make it up.
It's encouraging that SL is still giving debutantes a chance... talent coming through. Let's hope that he makes his mark and finally creates the right sort of selection headache at Centre.
Comment number 12. Posted by Standingon 1 Feb 2013 09:07
@10 - Waz. Being over 6 foot, 15 stone and great D, I don't think they'll be targeting him too much, and I'll feel sorry for them if they do..
Key thing for me is Brad Barrit playing 13, will be interesting how he does there (Attacking wise). Defence wise having Farrel, Billy, Barret, I don't think much will be getting through.

Job Creation
A major part of my job creation agenda is the Small Business Bill of Rights. The Bill of Rights consists of 10 policies that would immediately give companies and small businesses the certainty and economic environment they need to start hiring again. I am pleased to announce that one of these policies, which would create a patent fast lane for small businesses, has been adopted as an amendment to the America Invents Act. I will continue working to pass the remaining items included in the bill of rights to help put Illinois and America back to work.
In addition to the Small Business Bill of Rights, I have developed a 23 item economic policy checklist that would once again make the United States the best place on earth to start or expand a business.
Economic Policy Checklist
- Unburden The Economy From Washington Regulations. Small business employers face new cumbersome rules and regulations that discourage them from adding new employees. The President and Congress should support an economic moratorium on new regulations, which currently cost more than $1 billion.
- Codify the President's Proposal to Require Cost Benefit Analysis in the Formulation of Regulations. Ensure that regulations put forth by the Administration consider the economic burden on American businesses, ensure stakeholder input and promote innovation. These metrics should be applied to costly new mandates and burdens associated with Dodd-Frank and the Health Care law.
- New American Energy.Support expansion ofnew oil, coal, natural gas, biomass, hydro, solar, wind, and nuclear American power solutions with advanced technologies and strong research capabilities for more jobs. This is a time to support American energy developers expanding our independence from foreign oil, not singling them out with tax hikes.
- Lift the Outer Continental Shelf Prohibitions. Increase access to U.S. oil and natural gas reserves on the Outer Continental Shelf (OCS). This will create jobs, drive investment, and reduce our nation's dependence on foreign sources of oil. A February 2006 report released by the Department of the Interior estimated OCS reserves estimated 8.5 billion barrels of oil and 29 trillion cubic feet of natural gas are available. Increase Federal Loan Guarantee Authority for Nuclear Power.
- Stop Card-Check. "Card-Check" would threaten basic rights and the viability of employers and the small business community. The approach embraced by this proposal would deny employees the ability to privately cast their vote for or against union representation and eliminate the personal and flexible negotiations between small business owners and employees on contracts and working arrangements. The result is a higher cost of doing business, and creating a one-size-fits-all approach to wages and benefits.
- Increase Exports To Create More Jobs. In order to bring back jobs as our economy recovers, America's workers, farmers and service providers need access to consumers and markets around the world. American exporters do not enjoy the same opportunity for entry into new markets as their global competitors. Export agreements would reduce barriers to entry, level the playing field for our entrepreneurs and increase job growth at home.
- Ratify Three Pending Export-Opening Agreements. We should ratify the pending agreements with Korea, Colombia and Panama before July recess. This proposal is estimated to create 250,000 jobs.
- Provide Trade Promotion Authority for the President. This proposal will get the U.S. back in the business of engaging in market opening agreements.
- Require a Balanced Budget Amendment to the Constitution. Limit the ability to raise taxes to pay for runaway spending.
- Require a Statutory Spending Limit. A statutory process that provides a budget strait-jacket so that Congress is forced to make difficult decisions each year to live within its means, as every American family must, and turns toward a path of fiscal balance.
- Cut Spending to Immediately and Substantially Reduce Deficits. Cut spending relative to current levels to make a down payment on future spending restraint. This effort should also involve reforms to control entitlement spending and strengthen these programs for future generations.
- Reform Tax Code To Spur Economic Growth. End tax expenditures (preserving the mortgage interest and charity deductions) in return for dropping the top rates from 39% to 29% as recommended by the President's bipartisan deficit commission.
- Simplify and Reduce Business and Individual Tax Rates. Reduce the corporate tax rate to 25%, creating 5.3 million private-sector jobs over 10 years.
- Make Research and Development Tax Credit Permanent. Support innovation in the United States by providing the assurance and certainty that the temporary nature of the credit currently does not provide.
- Extend and Make Permanent the Small Business Investment Tax Incentive. Small businesses should be able to immediately write off equipment purchases as tax deductions.
- Reduce Taxes on Capital Gains and Dividends. Eliminate the uncertainty hanging over investors by making lower taxes on capital gains and dividends permanent. Low rates should be pursued because capital taxation harms economic growth and productivity, and ultimately lowers wages for workers.
- Support passage of S.299 REINS Act. The Act would require congressional approval by joint resolution of any federal rule that may result in an effect on the economy of at least $100 million.
- Require Greater Access to Federal Lands for Exploration of Resources. The U.S. has a natural abundance of energy resources including coal, natural gas, solar, wind, oil, biomass, and water resources. Expansion of access to federal lands for the development of these resources would take advantage of these resources while diminishing our reliance on foreign fuel sources of fuel.
- Adopt Common Sense Health Care Solutions. Meaningful health reform must begin with repealing and replacing the health care law, which will forestall the loss of 800,000 workers from the labor force. Pursue reforms that increase competition and reduce the skyrocketing cost of care.
- Enact Meaningful Medical Malpractice Reform. Such common-sense reform would lessen the wasteful practice of defensive medicine, save the federal government billions of dollars and reduce health care costs passed on to employers.
- Allow for Purchases of Insurance Across State Lines. This proposal would induce competition among health insurance companies, driving down costs and improving access.
- Provide Additional Risk Pools for Small Business. This proposal would allow small businesses to benefit from the economies of scale enjoyed by larger corporations and insurance plans in the health insurance group-market.
- Strengthen Health Savings Accounts and Patient-Centric Health Care. HSAs are savings accounts for medical expenses that offer flexibility for employees and reduce costs for employers. Improving HSAs will bring down costs for job creators and encourage personal responsibility. Reforms should also build on successful state-level initiatives to strengthen the transparency and value of health care services.

I need to heal and fast,
I can feel the time running out, all too soon.
But can't push myself out of the agony,
The threads of pain pull me back like a puppet.
I seem wrong to be grieving now, odd one!
Everybody else is no longer black,
Me, haven't seen the sunlight for long;
The mansion, its corridors, the rooms now my world.
The wound in my heart is still too fresh,
It forbids me from a sunset on the beach,
It forbids me from running or skipping,
It forbids me from laughter and joy...
In denial: they say but it's not all true, I accept
I know he is dead, He is no more
But do I dump him in my past and move on?
The thought makes me hate myself!
He would want you to smile again, live further..
Strangers tell me his likes and wants, the know-it-alls.
I look straight ahead and avoid their prying eyes
It's a losing battle, I know but let me lose in grace...
Visitors keep pouring in, with flowers and tears.
He was a man loved by many, the crowd proves it,
Everybody seems shocked and pale but not as lost as me
I glide along the windows, reliving the shadow of memories...
The moments were many, uncountable even,
It crushes my soul to think, they are all I have,
I see his fingerprints on the window panes,
I search for mine too, just beside him they lay...
The garden is being watered, but by a strange hand
The plants understand the master is now below them,
He will never enjoy their colors or drive away moths
His ashes and scent scattered around the mango tree..
I smile at the garden then burst out laughing,
Before I know, warm tears run down my nose
But there still lingers a smile, wet with glistening tears
I am happy he lived, he lived full and more...

Cayman-based reggae recording artiste Noza Liberal, more popularly known as Skilloh Noza, is breaking new ground with his latest single, Guide My Steps, produced by Bees Hive Zone Record Music Group (BHZRMG).
The song which was recorded last year represents Skilloh's current promotional single, as the Bahamian born singjay looks to further expand his fan base.
"In the next 5-10 years I really see myself on an international mainstream level, making good uplifting music for the people. I believe that everyone has a dream, some pursue it while others don't, but I'm going after mine," he said.
With recent accolades such as opening for Damian Marley in March 2013, and performing at various venues in Grand Cayman to his credit, Skilloh credits some of reggae's most prolific icons as his inspiration. "Growing up I use to listen to Bob Marley, Sanchez, Garnett Silk, Morgan Heritage, Beres Hammond, Jimmy Cliff and Buju Banton, so the love I have for music spans over a decade and it's undying," he said.
Skilloh who has been in studios working on new music, is said to be putting the final touches on his debut solo album tentatively titled Changing Timez. The album will be available for purchase via iTunes and online music stores soon.

|The Game Story:
|May 1: St. Lawrence University seniors Collin Moon and Peter Carroll each scored three goals while classmate John Allen chipped in two more as the No. 18 Saints defeated a tenacious Union College team on Friday afternoon at North Country Field to advance to the 2009 Liberty League championship game. The Scarlet and Brown will host arch rival Clarkson University on Sunday, May 3 at noon for a bid to the 2009 NCAA Tournament.
The victory moves St. Lawrence to 11-3 on the season, while Union�s 2009 campaign comes to an end with a mark of 7-7.
�Union came out and played tough as we expected and earned an early lead,� said St. Lawrence head coach Mike Mahoney, who was named the Liberty League�s Coach of the Year on Thursday. �I am really proud of the way our veteran leaders continue to respond this year with their backs against the wall. They came up big again today and lifted us to the championship game.�
The Dutchmen, the No. 4 seed in the conference tournament, came out playing with confidence and built a 4-1 lead in the second quarter. Ian Hunter and Scott Garibaldi scored to put the visitors on top 2-0, and after a goal by Carroll to make it 2-1, Ted McKenna scored the opening two tallies of the second quarter for a 4-1 Dutchmen advantage.
Union goalie Christopher Keinath helped keep the Saints� offense quiet early, as he came up with nine saves in the first half including five in the first quarter.
Trailing by three, the Saints began to chip away midway through the second quarter. Moon scored an unassisted goal at 6:05, while fellow senior Kyle Benton scored a man-up goal at 9:39 to bring the home team back to within one at 4-3. After Carroll tied the game with a hard shot under the crossbar, Moon put
St. Lawrence ahead for the first time at 5-4, forcing the Dutchmen to call a timeout and regroup.
The timeout served Union well, as they evened the game at 5-5 with 1:38 to play in the second frame on a goal by Brendan Kinnane. Allen would respond thanks to a bit of luck only 44 seconds later to give the Scarlet and Brown a one-goal cushion at halftime, 6-5. The Amherst, NY native�s long shot was deflected by a Union defenseman, and the ricochet caught Keinath out of position for Allen�s first goal of the game.
Senior captain Alex Slauson, who was named the conference�s Player of the Year, scored a man-up goal only 27 seconds into the third quarter to give St. Lawrence a 7-5 advantage. The goal would be the first of four in the opening three minutes of the second half, as Christopher Jacobson would answer only 36 seconds later for the Dutchmen. However, Moon and Allen scored goals only 1:13 apart to give the Saints their largest lead at 9-6 with 12:37 to go in the third quarter.
The Dutchmen continued to grind away, as they found success against St. Lawrence senior goalie Thomas Hollingsworth. Kinnane scored at 5:28 of the third, while Nick Alfonzetti cut the Union deficit to one goal at 9-8 with 4:38 to play in the third quarter. St. Lawrence first-year student Caldwell Rohrbach would halt the visitor�s momentum, though, with an unassisted goal with 1:19 to go in the third to put St. Lawrence on top 10-8.
The fourth quarter belonged to the Saints� defensive unit, as junior Trevor Scoon, senior Chris Farr and junior Teddy Barber protected Hollingsworth and allowed only five shots in the frame. Their efforts, along with a goal by junior CP Rahe at 2:30 of the fourth, allowed the Scarlet and Brown to slam the door on Union�s upset bid and advance to the 2009 Liberty League title game.
The Saints took advantage of each of their man-up tries, as they were 2-for-2 on the day and managed to not take a penalty throughout the game. St. Lawrence finished with a 43-23 advantage in shots and won 14-of-22 face-offs. Hollingsworth finished with six saves in the game while Keinath made 17 stops in a losing effort.
�Clarkson is obviously one of the most talented teams we faced all season, and they avenged a tough loss to Skidmore to advance to Sunday�s game,� added Coach Mahoney, whose team has won 31 consecutive Liberty League games. �They have great finishers up front and a sound defensive game. It should be quite a battle.�
St. Lawrence defeated Clarkson earlier this season in Potsdam, NY by the score of 10-7. The rematch will begin at 12:00pm on Sunday, May 3 with a slot in the NCAA Tournament field on the line.

Posted by Derek
Cambridge takes some getting used to, that's for sure. In some parts of town, it's a safe bet that most of the buildings you see are filled with people holding up flasks and staring at them with irritated expressions. The small one-story sites generally house firms that no one much has heard of, sometimes several of them to a building. Then there are the mighty research palaces of Novartis, Amgen, and the like, which manage to state in glass and brick (as clearly as any words could) what black ink will do for you as opposed to red.
New Jersey, where I started out in the industry, has plenty of people in the industry. But the atmosphere was different. Perhaps it was the way that the companies were more spread out into different towns: against a densely populated background they didn't stand out as much. Perhaps it was just some essential Jerseyness that diluted things - after living there for eight years, I wouldn't rule that explanation out.
I do remember my wife and I having dinner at a Japanese restaurant near our house and hearing the table next to us discussing problems with a radioactive assay protocol, but that sort of thing didn't happen as often as you'd think. But here the techno-geek vibrations travel pretty much unimpeded, which is fine with me. . .

Actually, you need to be somewhat careful what you discuss over lunch- if you go to Asgard or Desi Dhaba, I guarantee one of the tables around you is in the field. I've overheard things I probably shouldn't have.

Ditto on the T, especially the Red Line.
And it's just common courtesy not to take photos out your office window into the meeting room of the company next door.

Tell me about it! I work in the Kendall Square area - we had to abandon our practice of business lunches at local eateries when we moved here - too many ears about! Now, it's delivery to the office, only...

Jersey certainly has a good amount of established Pharma, but not so much in the start-up or bioventure space. This is mainly becasue no one in their right mind would start a new buisness in New Jersey. Based on purely anecdotal evidence, I would even say that the big pharma is slowly moving out of NJ to places like RTP, San Diego, and Cambridge.
But to your point, Cambride is indeed a special place, especially for people with a passion for science and innovation.

Have you tried MIT truck-food yet? Your initiation into Cambridge is not complete until you do.
6. SP on July 12, 2007 2:21 PM writes...
Oh dear god, truck food. There are a couple decent ones, usually those associated with a real restaurant (Jose's, one of the Chinese ones.) The Globe ran a review of them all last year, I think the reporter got sick or had undercooked chicken at the Chinese one on Main St.
7. Biogeek on July 12, 2007 2:44 PM writes...
Apropos of the Main Street trucks, the Goosebeary (Vietnamese) one, which had been there for YEARS, apparently lost its Cambridge license a few months back, and has been replaced by a Chinese truck. So now there are two Chinese trucks on Main St, neither one particularly distinguished. Copious hot sauce, helps (also has antimicrobial properties, I think - there's your on-topic Pharm Chem reference).
The parking lot trucks are a bit better (another vote for Jose's), but if you really want good food for cheap, you can't beat Izzy's (he's on vacation this month though).

Miracle of Science on Massachusetts Avenue is full of those geek vibrations. The menu is a periodic table and the tables are those lab granite countertops. Seems to be popular with the MIT student crowd in the afternoons. The burgers looked good, but I went for the hummus platter.
9. MolecularGeek on July 12, 2007 5:21 PM writes...
Gee, now I'm feeling hungry, thirsty, and homesick all at once. Thanks peoples ;-). The Asgard brings back memories; the Tex-mex place that was there before was better in some ways though. Miracle of Science was good, though I ended up doing most of my drinking in the Phoenix Landing. I also recommend the chicken teriyaki sub at cinderella's. La Groceria, if it's still there, was somewhat overrated. Don't miss the Peking Ravs and Yu-shang chicken at Mary Chung's (of MIT Model Railroading Club fame).

I had lunch at the Asgard the other day, as a matter of fact. I can see where it would get a lot of industry customers, given the location. I had the authentic Celtic turkey sandwich. There's sure nothing to eat further down Sidney Street, unless you can catch a squirrel or something in that park near Millennium.
11. MolecularGeek on July 12, 2007 8:47 PM writes...
Actually, there is a restaurant in the hotel that MIT put in behind the building that the Asgard is in. I think it's called Sidney's. Better if you are getting a vendor to buy you lunch than if you have to pay for yourself. And the Star Market above it actually has decent take-away, either in the a la carte deli, or if you have access to a section of a fridge and a microwave. If you head down towards the river, there are some small "delis", which actually are pizza and fried seafood joints that also make sandwiches. Dimitrio's isn't bad and they made good onion rings, IIRC. There's also a cafeteria in the 640 Memorial Drive building that's open to the public. It's nothing to walk down there for, but if you have a meeting at that end of Biotech Gulch, it can been a lifesaver.
12. SP on July 13, 2007 6:25 AM writes...
Actually, there's a fairly new place (not as new as you, Derek) at the corner of Sidney and Pacific called Pacific St. Cafe. They have good bakery things and coffee, grilled paninis, burritos, and enormous lunch specials- $7 gets you potatoes and a huge slab of the meat of the day, roasted turkey or meatloaf or the like. That's getting down to my area, the "red ink" buildings (except for VRTX, who have red ink but a nice building.)

Oh, is that what happened to them? They had absolutely terrific stuff (basil chili noodles, coconut curry chicken, peanut noodles) that was a serious rival to real Southeast Asian street food.
As for the rest -- the various Chinese trucks, Jose's, the dueling Israeli and Palestinian falafel guys -- I never really got into them.

Actually, I forgot to mention - I believe the Goosebeary truck in the MIT Biology parking lot, is still there. Less convenient if you are on the far side of Kendall, however.

New Jersey is a great place for start-up Pharmas.
Just what did you mean "Perhaps it was just some essential Jerseyness that diluted things" It was not clear at all or did you intend to be vague.
16. Processator on July 15, 2007 8:22 PM writes...
Close to the Asgard you have the Thai Cafe that it is not bad. One of the spiciest Tom Yom soups I that I ever had. Closer to Central Square there is a Chinese restaurant called Mary Chung. The owner is a former MIT grad student. Bertuccis in Main is a good choice from time to time.
Nothing comparable though to a nice Burrito in Ana's taqueria at MIT's Student Center.
For those closer to Kendall, nice Burgers in the Tommy Doyles and one of my favorites : A tasca (more expensive though!!).
I miss Boston!!!
17. Cambridge expat on July 18, 2007 9:18 PM writes...
Don't forget to get an ice cream from Toscanini's -- best I've ever had!

Toscaninis is indeed the best...
Is the nortn african joint still open on Lansdowne square accross from Millennium???

Here are a few testimonials from the owners of some of our puppies
in their new homes!
"I thought I would send you some photos of Rocky and Max his big (literally) brother. Rocky is doing great and we are thrilled with the newest addition to our family. He is training so well. He hasn't had any accidents at all in the house. He is also sleeping very well. He is a bit whiney, but he is still a baby. The vet said he is a very healthy dog. She also said he was beautiful. Enjoy the pictures and we will keep you informed as he grows. Thanks" - Melinda, Tony, and Jack, Chapel Hill, NC
"Hi Recia, I hope you are well. We still check your website. Your dogs are just too cute. Our Max is now 9 months old & we think he is the most beautiful dog. We work with him a lot. He went to the puppy obedience class several months ago. A couple of weeks ago, Don & I took him to a private lesson (which was great). We just bought him a larger crate, and he is happy with that. His crate is still in the kitchen, which works out well. He turns heads! Later." - Barbara, Winston-Salem, NC
"Wanted to drop you a line and let you know that Maxx is doing fine. He looked like a Maxx to us, so with this being your Max's first litter let him know he has a namesake. We went to the vet yesterday and he is in perfect health. He's taking to the crate well and seems to be adjusting well. I will send you some pictures of him in his new home in a couple weeks. Take care and thank you for Maxx. He's full of energy and just as sweet as he can be! Such a joy to be around." - Pat, Virginia Beach, VA
"He is just the cutest little pup in the world. He has whimpered a little, but we are giving him lots and lots of love. He "went potty" outside twice already...He is the hit of the neighborhood!" - Barbara talking about her Little Max, Winston-Salem, NC
"I just wanted to let you know that "mac" is doing great. He was at the vet yesterday, he weighs 16.5lbs. He is kennel trained and just about house trained. He is getting along well with our other dog. She puts him in his place once in awhile. He is a great puppy, we just love him and he seems to learn and respond very well. Here's a picture of him all ready for the 4th of july. Thanx" - Cindy, Virginia Beach, VA
"Hello Recia. I thought I would send one of the first pictures we took. Tucker is doing quite well. He is getting used to the crate and is doing a great job with his pottying outside. The whole family loves him already. Take care." - Suzanne, Mechanicsville, VA

"Bigsby is doing great! He is growing like a weed! He is so smart it's scary! We have been going once a week to obedience training and the trainer says he has a "zero learning curve." He pretty much picks up on everything the first time taught. He will sit, heel, and stay (pretty good). He is already housebroken (knock on wood - I'm almost afraid to say it) - he hasn't had a accident in 2 weeks or so and the last ones were right by the door. He adapted beautifully to his crate and is fine til 8am or so in the morning when we get him up. He had no problem getting used to a collar or a leash and loves, loves, loves to go on walks! He loves water - is fascinated watching it - he gets in his water dish outside with all fours and splashes til all the water is out. His color is gorgeous and gets many comments. He's the cutest dog I've ever seen." - Caroline, Durham, NC
"We just wanted to send you a recent picture of Dash. He is a wonderful boy. At the last vet visit (Feb) he already weighed 24 lbs. gaining 10 in 1 month. He is a big boy. He goes again this weekend so I'm sure he's 30 by now easily. We have really enjoyed him and he has turned out so pretty. Thank you for adding him to our lives." - Beth, Durham, NC
"We bought Samantha "Sam" from you from a litter born on April 30th of 2006 and she has been a dream! We are so happy she is a part of our family. We are curious about the miniature labradoodles from (upcoming) litters...Please send us some information...Thank you!" -The Petersons, Durham, NC
"Hi Recia, Here is Guinness at 3 months. (on the way to the lake) He is from Bella and Tazz's litter. Everyone is smitten with him. He is great and house broke easily; rings a bell! We brought him home March 16th...hence the St. Patty day name. Now at four months he weighs 15lbs. Glad we found you! " -The Longs, NC
"Recia, I have added a few more pictures of Holly ;) She is the PERFECT baby girl, she is house broken, knows sit, stay, shake, down, and if you ask her to say thank you she will bark 1 time ;) Holly has lost 8 of her puppy teeth and EVERYONE at the vet thinks she is BEAUTIFUL, pictures do not do her justice! We have a weekend that is all about dogs in Birmingham and we took her and I was stopped 4 times to see what kind of dog she was and where I bought her, she has been the best addition to our family! " -Kristen, Birmingham, AL
"I drove from Alabama to get one of these puppies and her pictures did not do her justice!!! She is a WONDERFUL addition to our family and the vet said she was a perfect little puppy. All the people who worked in the vets came out to see her since I got a F1B mini they were excited and all commented on how beautiful she was, the vet said I had found a good breeder!" -Kristen, Birmingham, AL Online Review
"Hi, Recia Just wanted to give you a quick update on Casey. Shes doing great and we love her so much! Shes sleeping in her crate at night and is doing great with house training. She already knows how to play fetch! She went to the vet today and everyone fell in love with her. The vet said shes very healthy. Thank you so much for trusting us with her. Ill send some pictures soon." -Colleen
"I took these photos today because our little love bug is not only growing like a weed but is quickly changing color underneath. Shes not actually losing any hair but the new growth is a light chocolate milk color so again, I wanted you to see our angel before the next color change. I have some cute photos of our bed hog (takes after her Daddy). She sleeps with us every night and many times when I wake up during the night, shes cuddled right up next to me with her head on the other half of my pillow. We absolutely LOVE Callie, she is truly a special animal. She still stops cars when we walk to pick up Riley at school and everyone coos over her no matter where we are. She also loves everyone she meets and is so friendly though she thinks shes a feisty watch dog as well!" -Deb
"Here are a few pictures of Shadow. He is now king of the house and boat. In the last week he has learned to sit in about 15 minutes (3, 5- minute classes) and can now jump on the couch, chairs, and bed. His name really fits as he follows me everywhere I go. As soon as I put him in the truck he lays down on the seat beside me and usually goes to sleep. He loves to run outside and seems to enjoy running in circles around me most of all. His housebreaking is going very good and he loves everyone he meets." -Gary
"Rusty is so smart and learns new things very quickly. He is starting agility classes in 2 weeks and I think I will take a dance class with him also. He loves to learn. He is working on his canine good citizen certificate right now and is great! We LOVE him so much and he has brought a lot of joy to our family and all who meet him. I will say he is a spoiled little boy. (Not too bad) We just had an invisible fence put in so he can run and chase the birds. He loves that. I thought I was getting him mostly for the boys but I have to say His dad and I love him so much. When Chris gets home from work he picks Rusty up and they give each other big bear hugs and kisses.I didn't think Chris would ever let a dog on the bed with him, but now loves to take naps with him and the boys fight over who he will sleep with. Even my father calls and asks how the little boy is. You breed BEAUTIFUL sweet dogs and Rusty is a head turner. " -Julie
"All is going so well with Willie Nelson! We love him to death!!! The best family dog ever! He went to work with Todd last Friday and slept on top of his desk for an hour and a half. Thanks for such a blessing!" -Catesby, Annie and Todd
"Take a look at the love of our lives. We lost our 5 year old rotty 3 weeks after we got Isabelle. Queenie (our rotty ) was truly the love of our life. We are still not over our loss, but what a joy to have Isabelle (Izzie) in our life. She is no doubt the sweetest " rock star" there ever was. We have learned not to take her with us if we are in a hurry, because so many people come up to us and just instantly fall in love with her. Izzie is Rhett's daughter and is absolutely beautiful. Thank you so much for giving her such a wonderful beginning to life. We don't have chidren but she melts when she is around children, no doubt because of her introduction to your grandchildren. Did I mention how smart she is? At 7 months old we are having to spell things now." -Phyllis & Stan
"Here are a couple pictures of Cooper - he is doing wonderfully! He has continued to behave well in the house and gets along so well with our families' dogs and everyone he meets. We are working on some basic commands with him, and he already knows sit, stand, and "want to go to school?" We took him to the lake this past weekend and he loved being out on the boat! He doesn't mind the car at all either. He falls asleep on our laps all the time and is always doing something to make us laugh. He is amazing!" -Matt & Megan
"Thought I would send you photos of Jackson who is now almost 13 weeks old. His crate training is going wonderfully. He is very loving and the kids love him to death. They all want me to wake them up while putting Jackson in their beds! It's still amazing thinking back how warm he was to us when we first met him and how he didn't seem homesick at all those first few days! He definitely is a very well added member to our family. " -David
"Wanted to write you a quick note and let you know how Cela was doing. Today was her second visit to the vet and everything has checked out beautifully. She is a very happy, healthy puppy. She has already travelled to Wilmington and Charlotte and is WONDERFUL with our nieces and nephews, whom range from ages 2 to 8. She loves children and is also great with the other dogs in our neighborhood. We absolutely love her and have already received numerous compliments on how cute/pretty she is. We may be sending you some more clients as much as some of our family loves her!" -Jessica & Scott
"I just wanted to send you a note to let you know that we love our labradoodle. Toby is a very people person dog and is also great around other dogs. I didn't realize until we were in Beaufort NC two weeks ago that we were raising a rock star. From the time go off the boat we were stopped approx 20 times asking what kind of dog Toby was and that he was the most beautiful dog they had ever seen. I forgot to mention that 4 of the 20 took photos of him, not us. The only refuge we could find was back on the boat. Toby has truly been a great addition to our family. I am in the process of teaching him to duck hunt and will keep you updated on how it is going. Did I mention that he is spoiled rotten?" -John
"We picked up one of your sable labradoodles about 4 months ago. I just thought you might like to know how well she was doing. We named her Margeaux. She is beautiful, smart, and very very lovable. She loves to be rubbed, especially on her belly. We have been very pleased with her and she has totally changed our world. I don't think we could ever have picked a more unique little dog with so much personality as we did. Thanks for everything" -Kristin

To get the most from the practice exercises in this series, you should have a basic knowledge of Linux and a working Linux system on which you can practice the exercises covered in this article.
Exercise 1. List dynamically linked shared objects
Imagine you are a systems administrator for a Linux file server. You are
working to create a new directory, and suddenly, the popular
mkdir command returns an error. This error
could be the result of a missing dynamically linked library. You've
probably used the
mkdir tool numerous times. It
is just one example of a program that depends on external shared objects
to function properly.
- Use the appropriate command to properly identify the
shared libraries
mkdircalls externally.
Exercise 2. Find statically linked executables
You have now found shared libraries dynamically linked to the
mkdir command.
- Locate an executable in the /bin directory that doesn't use external shared libraries.
Exercise 3. Find information about library caching
Linux caches library location information for dynamically linked programs to improve performance.
- Locate the caching directory on your Linux
computer, and use the appropriate command to find a library that
Exercise 4. Set an alternative shared library path
Commonly used Linux executables such as
typically use a common path that your Linux distribution sets. Suppose the
organization you are working for requires the use of a third-party program
that is dynamically linked to shared libraries not included in a
typical Linux computer's library search path. In such cases, you might
consider creating a separate directory for the libraries. However, the
program needs to locate the libraries when executed. For this task, assume
that the third-party application foo has been provided, but an
older version uses a shared library not installed on your Linux computer.
- Create a directory with the path /opt/foo/lib.
- Create a file in the /opt/foo/lib directory, and name it foo.so.
- Use the
exportcommand to set the library path variable that will enable the application to find foo.so at run time.
Exercise 5. Create a symbolic link to a shared library
Consider the possibility that foo software has been updated and documented to use the latest /lib/libcat.so library in place of foo.so. Even though the new software has backward compatibility to use foo.so, you can experiment using the new library by creating a symbolic link:
- Rename the original foo.so to foo.so.old.
- Create a symbolic link from /lib/libcat.so to /opt/foo/lib/foo.so.
Exercise solutions
Follow these solution steps to check your work.
- The developerWorks article "Learn Linux,101: Manage shared libraries" (developerWorks, March 2010) describes the commands required to complete these exercises.
- At the LPIC Program site, find detailed objectives, task lists, and sample questions for the three levels of the LPI's Linux systems administration certification. In particular, look at the LPI-101 detailed objectives and the sample questions.
- Review the entire LPI exam prep series on developerWorks to learn Linux fundamentals and prepare for systems administrator certification based on LPI exam objectives prior to April 2009.

Coronel Romero and Porvenir met in the Liga Regional del Sud championship game in Paraguay last week. Coronel won, 2-0, and as you can see, the losing team might have put some of the blame on the referee. During the second half, a Porvenir player received a red card for a particularly physical tackle.
Then two of his teammates were given reds for bumping the referee. Assuming the ref didn't understand the protest up until that point, Marcos Leguizamón came running in and kicked the referee in the face. Leguizamón quickly backpedaled away from the crowd which was mostly his teammates. You know, like any good tough guy would. It appears the game was called at that point as the referee leaves the pitch with a police escort.

Gallup poll: Americans think women should start having kids by age 25
CINCINNATI - Ideally, the majority of Americans think that women should start having children by age 25.
Slate reports that fifty-eight percent of the more than 5,000 people surveyed by a new Gallup poll think women should have kids in their late teens or early twenties.
Only 43 percent of those surveyed think men should have children by age 25, though.
According to the poll, both men and women agree that women should start having babies young, while most women say the ideal age for men to have children is 26 or older.

Thread of the Day: Which Midsize Sedan Should be Offered as a Coupe? W/Poll
front end looks terrible
I actually like the new front end but it will make my 2012 S60 look dated. It used to take a real expert to determine what year model a Volvo was because they changed the look so infrequently.
They didn't address the three real problems of the current S60 however. These are lack of rear seat legroom, not enough trunk space, and a spare tire, even a spacesaver. The sealant and compresser are not the answer.
I like it and I'm shopping for either a 2013 0r 2914 Volvo. I particularly like the new interior choices as I have been wanting more. So I will be waiting for 2014. The digital dash looks great and the new seating and colors will please me. So some of these options will allow me to not wish for options on the S80.
I think it looks very good, classy and elegant, but it also doesn´t look any better than my 2013 V60. It´s like the 2013 Mustang re-design, it doesn´t look better or worse, or more modern, just different.
Instead of refreshing the S60/V60 which really doesn´t need it yet, Volvo should concentrate on a completely new S40 (based off of the V40), a C30, a S80 and V70 and a XC90. The current S60 and V40 are awesome, also de XC60, now start working on the rest of the range
@Ricardo Pliego I completely agree with you. They must make a new line of the s80, a new s40 would be great as you say, and of course a new XC90 and a new C30. I also think that their best designs now are the s60, the V40 and the xc60, but the tiny changes made to the xc90 and the s80 are shameful, they can't expect to grow up in sales as a company making those insignificant changes, people are starting making critics that some volvo models seems old and boring and that's not a good start for the 2014 new changes. And maybe, they should start making models that run, that run fast.
I agree with you on the headlamps.
I prefer to see into them a bit these days, they are slowly becoming very important in design language
The interior update is a much needed refresh and I'm glad they kept buttons instead of some gaudy touchscreen interface that barely works in the best vehicles. The added definition to the hood lines are great and the rear looks superb. However the old headlights are way better than the update. They had this understated menace that set Volvo apart, literally giving the company a recognizable, desirable face. The new versions headlights are just to understated and mundane, a step backwards in my not so humble opinion.
I honestly thought the title of the article said S80 based on the picture. I think the S60 is fine the way it is styling-wise. The S80 is a bit bigger and more boat-like and needs a bit of a refresh anyway. That face fits it better than an S60, it looks larger.
It's not an ugly car, it's just not incredibly attractive like the other one
The front looks better now, not that the previous model was any ugly. This new front grill was first seen on volvo's concept-you car in 2011.
The disappointment comes on 3 key arees, that I feel Volvo should address to step it with the big Teutons, and its stopping me from buying a Volvo:
1. where is the power lumbar support for the front seats? It is atleast needed on the driver side.
2. Its time to let go of the telephone dialpad, and bring a refreshed fascia, the current one has become so boring.
3. the rear trunk and tail light needs some treatment, with the car now showing a more lower front profile, the rear end just bulges up like a swollen keister. just having a bigger tail light on the trunk lid part would make it more aesthetically pleasing.
Definitely a nice refresh. I appreciate the return to traditional Volvo angularity. While certainly stylish and attractive, the previous front-end was far too reminiscent of a fish.
There was a delicate balance the old version had between conservative and edgy styling that's lost with the new bland front end. It looks less playful now. The instrument cluster's nicer though; I suppose that counts for something.
Revolting. Its like what VW did to the CC, made it more bland.
I like the new smooth wedgy elegant face
The only two cars in the segment to ACE the crash test were the Volvo S60 and the Acura TL, the Acura, while a very nice car, has that big toothy grin. the S60 on the other hand was rather handsome to the least, however the TL must have known Volvo was going to kill the S60's looks and that must be why it smiles so much.
Is it just me or does this look like a VW passat?
A mild refresh that doesn't inspire,but also doesn't insult anyone. They may now be owned by Geely, but their appearance is obviously unoffensive as the Swedish ancestry it comes from. The power-trains are still great with the base S50 having AWD available. I like the car, I just don't see myself purchasing it over a TSX, C250, or ATS.
i think that it looks very nice but it also is starting to look much more like the s80 which is a problem that volvo used to have
I'm starting to worry about volvo. The S60 was a great looking car that made people say what's that? I see a number of them in my area. This ruins the look. Horrible. I loved the xc90 when it came out. But they have not done anything to it in 10 years! The S80 also needs a total redue. We need a whole new 40 series line back as well. More than the new 40 hatch that Volvo will not bring to the states. I do not have much hope for thier future.
ok at best
Refreshing in a generic European sedan with Asian styling cues sort of way. Revolting in that it's a mild refresh of stale product. While Volvo once made some great cars, the current line up is outclassed (although the interior actually looks pretty nice) by virtually everything it competes with price wise. There are far better choices for the same money an S60 commands.....
That rounded hood makes the front end look rather stubby and disproportionate. Looks like it drove head on into a wall.
I recently test drove a S60 and an A4, back to back at the same dealership. The S60 was a good car but the A4 felt much more cohesive. Although the A4 was down on HP, it felt quicker, lighter, more agile yet at the same time more planted and solid. I felt that the steering and suspension of the A4 were in a different league than the S60. If the S60 is to compete it needs to do more than change the grill design or tailpipes. As for the changes, I am not sure than they are improvements on the old model.
Looks too close to the S60. Revolting.
It's not ugly, but not great looking. The old headlights look better though.
Meh. I liked the separate headlights. It gave it a distinct look. Now it's bland, with nothing showy about it.
So not refreshing, but not revolting. Just blah.
At least they fixed it.
The new design has less character than the current one, which looks pretty good (but is color-sensitive imo). So it's nice/inoffensive rather than refreshing or, especially, revolting.
Viewed in a vacuum, the 2014 is a pretty attractive car. But it is also kind of bland and anonymous. The current S60 looks really good. This is neither refreshing nor revolting. Just disappointing.
the digital speedo is a mistake imo. It would be ok in addition to an analog gauge.. like on a trip computer screen. beside that I say refreshing.
Exterior revolting, interior refreshing. I actually liked the look of the little LED lights besides the headlights from the older model. Now that they have done away with that, this is just boring.
This car went from stylish to old man boring.
Besides the updated tech on this car, I am very disappointed with the treatment Volvo gave the S60 up front. This car had perhaps the best application of the old headlight design out of the entire Volvo lineup, but that unique and stylish face in now replaced by what I think is a more generic design. This won't help get a potential buyer's attention.
Its plane and boring,, looks like it already needs a new reshreshing...;(....Not good for Volvo, new XC 60 is actually even worse
This looks like a bar of soap compared to the old one. Who approved this? how do you go backwards like this? Mercedes E class did a similar soap design change but it still has some sexy lines, this , this, this is just bland, like a fresh salad with no dressing and rudimentary lettuce.
I liked the old one better. This new one looks kinda boring.
Refreshing, though I'm waiting to see the R-Design already. The older one had a very unique face, but from some angles just looked like it had a bit too much front overhang, this refresh eliminates that. Plus, the interior upgrades and new tech make it a more rounded car.
Nah... it's revolting, less cool than the previous, I mean it looks like the old one was the refreshed!
revolting. It looks less distinctive now, and the grill looks too wide, kind of awkward. I like the new gauges, but besides that, mehh.
Moving from Swiss to Swinese (or Chiniss?) could've resulted in who knows what. Way to play it safe and preserve the "Swissness." Not sure it's gonna up the popularity of the vehicle. To really move the sales needle, a substantial redesign is required. Why not bring back a modern day 240DL? Refreshing or Revolting? Ehhh.... doesn't move the needle enough for an opinion.....
