Color vision deficiency, often referred to as color blindness, is often a misunderstood condition. This is partially because there are several different causes of color blindness, as well as a variety of ways the condition develops. Is it true that only males are at risk? Are people born with color blindness? Read on to find out what is fact and what is fiction: [FULL STORY]   Tell A Friend Wonders Await in Winnipeg The Canadian city offers exciting attractions year-round. Located in the province of Manitoba, Winnipeg has more than 650,000 residents and is the eighth largest city in Canada. The area was used for fur trading posts in the 1700s and served as home to Scottish crofters who arrived in 1812. Winnipeg was incorporated as a city in 1873, and today is known throughout the world as a desirable place to both live and vacation. Sitting at the confluence of the Red and Assiniboine rivers about 60 miles north of the U.S., the city will sweep you off your feet from the moment you arrive. [FULL STORY]   Vehicle Profile: The 2012 Mercedes-Benz M-Class What a luxury SUV should be. The success of the Mercedes-Benz M-Class SUV comes as no surprise. Signature luxury, all weather, all-terrain prowess and constantly evolving technology have made the M-Class a winner ever since its introduction, each iteration better than the last, which describes the all-new 2012 Mercedes-Benz M-Class. It’s the best M-Class so far, which means it’s one of the best luxury SUVs, period. [FULL STORY]   Vehicle Profile: The 2012 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class Luxury with a custom touch in a four-door coupe. The 2012 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class not only reinvented the idea of what a coupe can be, it also brought back to the luxury automobile showroom a sense of custom tailoring not really seen for more than six decades. Others have tried copying the four-door coupe formula, but the 2012 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class still stands in a class by itself. [FULL STORY]   Two is One Too Many Sequels that thankfully never happened. Some of the worst films ever made are, in fact, sequels to some of the best films ever made. While some have gotten it right (Godfather II, anyone?), many more have left people longing for the originals. Luckily, some studio executives had the wherewithal to put the kibosh on these prospective sequels. [FULL STORY]   Car Care: Using Genuine Replacement Parts The right part makes all the difference. It takes hundreds of thousands of man-hours and several years of design, engineering and testing work to bring a new car, truck, SUV or crossover to the market. With so much work going into developing and integrating every component of a new vehicle, and as one of the most expensive pieces of equipment most people own, it really doesn’t make sense to install replacement parts of dubious origin.
