“Amateur motocross families have lost an iconic member,” according to a spokesman for the AMA Amateur National Motocross Championship. “The Queen of Country Music has opened her home to thousands of motocross athletes for the past 41 years. The memories made at Loretta Lynn’s Ranch are indelible to our racing family.” Famously born dirt poor in the coal mining country of eastern Kentucky, Lynn was a natural singer and storyteller....
I landed in Munich a few days ago to celebrate perhaps the greatest gift I’ve received as a car writer: Friendships made with readers — specifically, one made with Andreas, a Romanian-German with a heart of gold and an Autobianchi of not-too-much rust. I landed on Friday and attended his 12-hour wedding the following day. It was in an incredible car museum; here’s a small section of it: There was a lot of cake:...
After testing Passion.io and creating a Course App, we’re ready to share our thoughts. You can try it too for 14 days, no strings attached! Selling your knowledge without an app is a BIG mistake. The eLearning industry has been booming and one of the main reasons for such massive growth is LMS platforms (like Passion.io). Such LMS platforms don’t require coding knowledge, and hence instructors are able to develop their LMS apps quickly like never before....
I’m not exactly sure of the resolution of the screen, but I bet it’s something like 120×80 or around that. It’s something close to an early Nintendo Game Boy, with its square 160×144 pixel screen, but lacks a crucial quality the Game Boy had: grayscale. A Game Boy could do four shades of gray (well, really shades of kinda baby poop green) but this Volvo screen can only turn pixels on or off, which makes the image even more impressive, with a lot of clever dithering effects to get some kind of shading....
The regular tap water which is supplied to office and home and to any other commercial spaces though seem to be very clear but they do have a lot of health affecting germs and bacteria in it along with some harmful chemicals like mercury, fluorine, leads and other pesticides. When one uses and consumes this regular and non purified water then it can lead to some serious health issues and some of them can really affect the human health....
I have so much regret. I should have taken the XJ on a long-ish test drive before selling it, because I know I would have noticed a thermal issue far before the engine overheated. The buyer — like most people who expect their cars to, you know, work — did not, and continued driving until the Jeep literally spewed steam out of its exhaust pipe and would no longer start....
Welcome to The Morning Dump, bite-sized stories corralled into a single article for your morning perusal. If your morning coffee’s working a little too well, pull up a throne and have a gander at the best of the rest of yesterday. Things Are Looking Bad For European Automakers And Parts Suppliers Between inflation and an energy crisis, now seems to be a particularly rough time for European automakers and suppliers....
So is it Rv or Tent camping? The first thing is that campers, unlike tents, give you a night of comfortable sleep even during camping. While you are sleeping in a tent, there is always something that might disturb you, like insects, rain, stones that poke you, or falling twigs. It can also get cold during the night, and the ground is intensifying the low temperature. Campers give you protection against rain, just like an ordinary house would....
That’s why a cash offer on your home might pique your interest. These deals allow you to skip all the administrative legwork so you can sell your home quickly and start looking for your next property as soon as possible. Before you start Googling, “Should I accept a cash offer for my home?”, read on. Today, we’re sharing a few of the main benefits that this process can provide. What Is a Cash Home Sale?...
So what does an EV from the people who brought you the Walkman and VTEC actually look like? From the looks of the Sony Honda Mobility Afeela, the firms definitely haven’t cocked it up. This prototype is from Afeela, the proper brand name given to the Sony Honda Mobility joint venture. It was unveiled tonight at CES 2023, and while I have… thoughts about the name, the design itself means this team-up is off to a good start....
You Have To Get Up Very Early In The Morning If You Want To Kill The Honda Accord Back at The Old Site, we used to call it the Sedanocalypse: the rapid erosion of the four-door sedan market as buyers flocked to crossovers, SUVs and trucks, and automakers couldn’t be more thrilled to accommodate them. After all, the car business is one of margins, and all of those larger vehicles command higher prices than sedans and small cars at generally the same cost of production....
Interviewers are not just interested in technical knowledge (although this is very important) but also how candidates approach problems, construct their thought process and demonstrate personal skills, such as communication. The employer will, of course, be assessing your technical ability and your understanding of the industry to ensure you will be able to do the job, but they will also be looking at how you got to your answers (your methodology)....
This engineering company designs and builds electrical systems, providing services to the aerospace, space, transport, defence and security, as well as digital identity and security sectors. Most of us use Thales systems regularly without even realizing. For example, millions of airline passengers use Thales in-flight entertainment every year and nearly all trains in the UK are fitted with the Train Protection and Warning System from Thales. With operations in over 56 countries, Thales generated a revenue of €17 billion in 2020....
Let’s start with the 770 part of the name. The engineers at Aston have crammed seven percent more boost into the 5.2-liter twin-turbocharged V12 engine to produce 770 metric horsepower, or 759 real horsepower. For those of you keeping track at home, that’s more power than the One-77, which should make this the most powerful front-engined Aston ever made for the road. Job well done, I reckon. Mind you, this isn’t just a case of a simple remap....
Something I love about our ragtag group is that we all have something that we love that’s perhaps just a touch out of what many would say is normal. Each of us has something different to offer. David is the undisputed champion of rust and has proven that he can turn a pile of random rusty parts into a functional vehicle that passes inspection. I love everything with an engine or motor, regardless if it flies, rides, sails, or drives....
This is a position where you will be monitoring and guarding prisoners who are in correctional or rehabilitation facilities. If you’re a fan of shows such as Orange Is the New Black, you may think you know what to expect from a job as a correctional officer, but the reality is quite different. As a correctional officer, you will: Be expected to ensure that all prisoners are adhering to the rules and regulations of the setting Be responsible for conducting inspections and searching for contraband Be working alongside inmates who have committed crimes Always have to remain alert and be skilled at conflict resolution, negotiation and critical thinking...
First, a bit of disclosure. Honda’s only released one official press picture of the e:N2 and a few computer-generated videos, so to view good photos of the real car, you’ll want to hop on over to an outlet like Vietnam’s Việt Giải Trí. With that out of the way, let’s talk a bit about styling of this machine, which rides on a platform called the e:N Architecture F (which Honda claims prioritizes vehicle stability and crisp handling, and should underpin future e:N models)....
