You had a nice long Cold Start yesterday. Today you just get this one gag. Anyway, this car totally reminds me of a tinfoil car body on a plastic toy frame.

Anyway, Panhard made some appealing old trucks, and I adore this old illustration style, so I hope you can enjoy it as well. Hope your weekend is full of security, silence, visibility, loge-ability (?), comfort, and accessibility, like the triangles say. Inspector: “But Mademoiselle, why did you do it?” Mademoiselle: “He insulted my cooking for the final time. So I drove the Panhard right onto his skull.” And rolling my eyes clear out of my head as privileged, wealthy white guys insist anyone can just go get a reliable car for under $500 a month right now....

I mean, they sure do look great next to some trees, don’t they? And, by using an illustration instead of a photograph, Opel was able to really get the ideal look of the trees, so you know that Opel owner was classy as fudge. Also notable are these amazing creased headlights Opel was using, in this short-lived era before standardized sealed-beams but also enough technological development to make shaped, custom headlights, which wouldn’t re-appear until the late 1980s, at least in America, 1960s or so for Europe....

These F-150s looked substantial and capable, but were also interestingly unassuming. Where modern trucks feel the need to shout about how tough they are and all the shit they can do, I feel like it’s trucks that look like this that are getting the work done behind the scenes, and would be embarrassed if you called them out. This generation of F-150 has styling that feels, compared to modern truck, strangely modest....

Whenever something makes me conjure up memories of the Dodge Neon and its Plymouth twin, those memories take me right back to high school. It was common to see a Neon in my high school’s parking lot, and those cars would usually be used up and beaten down. Despite crumbling rust, peeling paint, and all kinds of dents, these cars still got classmates to school. Chrysler, Dodge and Plymouth put roughly 2,224,000 Neons on the road between 1993 and 2004, and many of the survivors continue to live a life of cheap transportation....

Well, that’s pretty definitive. Poor old Daeeoo can’t even beat out a car that has likely been thrown up in by a thousand frat boys. Someone suggested stripping out the back seat area of that Malibu; I think that might be for the best. For your entertainment and edification today, I have a couple of sporty European cars from days gone by. One sedan, one roadster; one six-cylinder, one four; one rear-wheel-drive, one front....

Employers now appreciate the benefit of taking their employees’ personal lives and situations into consideration; for instance, a worker might have a young family and need some flexibility when it comes to school pick-ups and unexpected illnesses. But just what are the advantages and disadvantages of flextime? Is flextime a good idea? These are the questions we will deliberate on within this article. What Is Flextime? Flextime allows employees the flexibility to pick and choose their working hours within a day....

The difficulty comes in choosing the right one for your needs. In this article, we’ll look at FXCM vs. Forex.com, comparing the costs, services and suitability of these two popular online brokers. What Is FXCM? Its parent company, the Jefferies Financial Group, is publicly listed on the New York Stock Exchange and holds tier 1 regulation in three jurisdictions. Authorization is given by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), the Australian Securities and Investment Commission (ASIC), and the Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada (IIROC), making FXCM a reasonably safe and secure broker....

No AC in a black car. Hey, who doesn’t love a good Korean BBQ? Now, today we’re going to check out two of Germany’s finest offerings from their respective eras, a pair of top-of-the-line long-wheelbase sedans. These cars were the ultimate in status symbols (well, almost; we’ll get to that) when they were new, but now they’re not likely to impress anybody without some work. Let’s take a look....

[Editor’s Note: We have a guest cold start today, from our own Huibert, who took the lovely picture, too! – JT] For those of us watching, the sound and sight of these cars going flat out at dusk was something we will not easily forget, so can we just take a moment with our morning coffee to revel in the beauty of vintage race cars, tires begging for mercy and motors screaming at redline, coming out of the sunset?...

Read Japanese oil manufacturer ENEOS’s press release about the Porsch-baru, and you might get the impression that we have a ready-to-rock racing machine on our hands, but if there’s one thing that became clear while looking at the Subi-powered Porsche, it’s that this project has only just begun. There’s no cooling system, the engine isn’t mounted properly, the shifter isn’t hooked up, and on and on — Kugay is only at square one with this build....

The NBA, MLB and NHL attract decent number, but it is the NFL who have the greatest following for their fantasy football with around 80% of those 60 million playing fantasy football. With the internet becoming more and more commonplace in the 90s, the boom in fantasy sports took them from local leagues amongst friends and co-workers, to the now global communities that exist. In 1988 there was estimated to be half a million fantasy sports players, with leaped to over 15 million by 2003 with the ease of access and monitoring of the season through the internet....

This particular form is the most common one found within businesses. When looked at as an image, it forms a pyramid-style diagram describing the authority within an organization. When a hierarchical structure is used within a business, it will feature one person at the top in charge of the overall company. This is then followed by increasingly larger numbers of lower management and supervisors. Typically, each section of a business will have a manager that they refer to....

The day started just like any other onboard the aircraft carrier. I woke up at around 10, just in time for lunch – or, as many on the boat call it, “aviator breakfast.” We typically flew from about noon to just after midnight, causing the air wing (the combination of fighter, helicopter and early warning squadrons) to be on a slightly skewed daily schedule compared to most others onboard. I rendezvoused with my squadron mates in the wardroom and chowed down on some catfish and rice pilaf....

This article looks at the various fees you can expect to pay and offers advice on how to keep your GMAT costs to a minimum.

It’s debatable if you can call this electric/pedal powered recumbent bike/go-cart a car. Inventor Sir Clive Sinclair called it “a personal electric vehicle” but the one thing you can undeniably call it is “a failure.” In retrospect, people seemed to forget that success in one industry (Sinclair made one of Great Britain’s first successful personal computers) does not automatically begat success in another endeavor. As the June 25, 1983 issue of The Economist put it,...

Not only have attitudes towards remote workers changed, but new technologies have emerged, making it easier than ever before to work from almost anywhere in the world. A digital nomad is a new name for remote workers. They may be entrepreneurs who have set up their own businesses. They may be remote workers employed by an organization or part of the freelance community. Many bystanders are envious of the so-called freedom that digital nomads have....

What Is a Virtual Assistant? A virtual assistant (VA) is someone who works freelance to help a business or individual with their day-to-day professional responsibilities. VAs will often work remotely, providing administrative services alongside technical support. The assistance provided by a VA saves business owners time and resources. Because of the remote, flexible and freelance nature of a VA’s role, it also means that there is no need to hire full-time employees....
