It is identical to the main resource, just as bright, colorful, attractive, and interesting, and simultaneously easily adapts to the screen size of a tablet or smartphone, keeping all the functionality and tools available.

- How to Maximize the Value of Your Junk Car
You may be one of those many people who have an old, unwanted car in their possession. Possibly, now could be the right time to sell that car that has probably been sitting idle for years. However, wait till you get the first offer. Below are some factors that you have to take into consideration to fully maximize the usage of your junk car. Here are the guidelines that might assist in getting the most out of your money. Assessing the Condition of Your Car Before you start reaching out to Philadelphia salvage yards, you should first understand what you are dealing with: Exterior: Look for dents, rust, and any other signs of external harm. Interior: Look at the state of the seats, the dashboard, and electrical and electronic gadgets. Engine and mechanical parts: Try to determine which pieces are still in proper operating condition. Understanding your car’s situation will assist you in price determination and bargaining for the best price. Gather Documentation Having your car’s paperwork in order can significantly boost its value. Make sure you have: Title: Proves ownership and is required by most buyers. Maintenance records: Show regular upkeep, which can make your car more appealing. Original manual and spare keys: These small details can add to the car’s value. Choosing the Best Selling Option The simplest and also quite profitable option is to address junkyards. Here’s how to get the best deal: Get multiple quotes: Do not be tied down to the first quote that is offered. Dial around and compare costs. Negotiate: With your knowledge of the car's current status and other available deals, you can bargain for better prices. Check for extra fees: Some of the junkyards even charge for towing, and this should also be discussed at the beginning. Sell Parts Individually If you have a lot of time and energy, then selling the parts one by one will be more beneficial. High-demand parts include: Catalytic converters: Possess metals of value. Tires and rims: All these can easily find a good market if in good condition. Electronics: Items that are commonly demanded include radios, GPS systems, and other related electronics. Online Marketplaces Websites like Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace, and eBay Motors can be great places to sell your junk car or its parts: Write an advertisement: Take clear photos and give a detailed account of the car and its condition. Be honest: Any information regarding the car can be useful, and revealing the problem may help you avoid wasting time and gain the buyer’s trust. Set a fair price: Research similar listings to price your car competitively. Preparing Your Car for Sale A clean car, even a junk one, looks more appealing. Spend a bit of time to: Wash the exterior: Remove dirt and grime. Clean the interior: Vacuum and wipe down surfaces. Remove personal items: Ensure nothing is left behind. Remove Valuable Components If your car has valuable components that can be easily removed, consider selling them separately. This includes: Newer tires: If your tires are in great condition, they can be sold separately. Battery: A new or working battery can be sold or used in another vehicle. Aftermarket parts: Such as sound systems or specialty rims. Check for Recalls Sometimes, cars have parts that are under recall. Check with the manufacturer to see if any parts can be replaced for free before selling your car. This can increase its value. Negotiating the Sale Before you start negotiating, decide on the lowest price you're willing to accept. This will help you stay firm during negotiations and avoid selling for less than your car is worth. Highlight the Positives When talking to potential buyers, emphasize the positive aspects of your car: Parts in good condition: Highlight any parts that are still working well. Recent repairs: Mention any recent work done on the car. Unique features: Any features that might make the car more appealing. Finalizing the Deal If the buyer doesn't provide towing, you'll need to arrange for it. Some tips: Compare towing services: Look for the best price. Check with buyer: Some buyers might have preferred towing services or might be willing to cover the cost. Tips for a smooth sale: Be patient: Making a sale is not as easy as people tend to think, and it may take time to find the right buyer. Take your time; waiting for the right offer can help you increase the amount of money you receive. Stay safe: If you meet a potential buyer, especially from one of the online platforms, protect yourself: Meet in public places: Choose crowded and safe places for meetings. Bring a friend: It is always good to have someone around as this makes you feel more secure. Finally, ensure you get paid in a secure method. Cash is often preferred, but if accepting checks, verify funds before completing the sale. By ML staff. Images courtesy of Unsplash.

- Christie's Auction: Summer's Hottest Artists at Refreshing Prices
Christie's is showcasing a curated selection of artworks for sale this summer. Here are a few of our favorites. Esther Mahlangu, NDEBELE MURAL ABSTRACT (UMGWALO) $4,000-6,000 Esther Mahlangu (b. 1935), NDEBELE MURAL ABSTRACT (UMGWALO), 2015. Acrylic on canvas. 16½ x 23¼ in (42 x 59 cm). Estimate: $4,000-6,000. Offered in First Open from 2-17 July 2024 at Christie’s New York. Esther Mahlangu’s large-scale paintings are at once a representation of her heritage and the beginning of a conversation with her audience. Born in South Africa in 1935, she belongs to the South Ndebele people. Ndebele house painting, a cultural tradition in which homes are adorned with colorful murals, is typically performed by women. Mahlangu was taught the form by her mother and grandmother. Her works reflect this deep-rooted practice, incorporating the geometric patterns and vibrant hues found on Ndebele houses in various media. In NDEBELE MURAL ABSTRACT (UMGWALO), she uses acrylic on canvas, but she has set her brush to a BMW 525i as part of the brand’s Art Cars series. Her work was recently included in Giants: Art from the Dean Collection of Swizz Beatz and Alicia Keys at the Brooklyn Museum and is currently on view at the central pavilion of the Venice Biennale. 2. Murjoni Merriweather, N U R A; J A S M I N E $4,000-6,000 (each) Murjoni Merriweather (b. 1996), N U R A, 2021. Ceramic, glitter, found earrings and synthetic hair. 17½ x 6 x 8 in (43.8 x 15.2 x 20.3 cm). Estimate: $4,000-6,000. Offered in The Rosa de la Cruz Collection Online Sale from 2-18 July at Christie’s New York Murjoni Merriweather (b. 1996), J A S M I N E, 2021. Ceramic, dyed hand braided synthetic hair and metal. 22 x 12 x 12 in (55.9 x 30.5 x 30.5 cm). Estimate: $4,000-6,000. Offered in The Rosa de la Cruz Collection Online Sale from 2-18 July at Christie’s New York The Baltimore-based ceramicist Murjoni Merriweather creates life-size sculptures of Black people and their experiences. Her striking works oppose European beauty standards and often employ contrasting textures, such as in the present J A S M I N E, where braided synthetic hair and metal earrings cover a clay base. She made her auction debut at Christie’s this past May. Her recent appearance in the exhibition Shattered Glass at Los Angeles’ Jeffrey Deitch Gallery featured busts made of black clay adorned with gold earrings, necklaces and grills. As she sparks conversations on how acts of self-love — like wearing jewellery — have been weaponised as negative stereotypes, she ultimately wants her work ‘to be relatable,’ as she said in an interview with the exhibition’s curator Antoine J. Girard. ‘If we see it as relatable, then we see ourselves as art...’ The intersection of art and activism is a key part of how her work is to be seen, and by using physical materials that speak to aspects of Black life, she makes sure that relationship is on the surface of her sculptures. 3. Loriel Beltrán, FSLV $10,000-15,000 Loriel Beltrán (b. 1985), FSLV, 2018-2020. Latex paint on panel. 69¾ x 44⅛ in (177.2 x 112 cm). Estimate: $10,000-15,000. Offered in The Rosa de la Cruz Collection Online Sale from 2-18 July at Christie’s New York Born in Caracas, Venezuela and based in Miami, Loriel Beltrán makes paintings which blend art traditions across the Americas with an eye to abstraction, and physicality. With visual inspirations ranging from Lynda Benglis’s pours and Mark Rothko’s explorations of colour to Cinetismo and Concrete art, his work is a harmony of art traditions from across the Americas. Built by letting acrylic paint dry in intricate moulds, the surface of Beltrán’s paintings reflect the demanding nature of his process. He was recently picked up by Lehmann Maupin, and had solo shows at their New York and Seoul locations in 2023, as well as one in their London gallery which just concluded this June. 4. Tauba Auerbach, I Doubt It/But I Do It $15,000-20,000 Tauba Auerbach (b. 1981), I Doubt It/But I Do It, 2008. Gouache and graphite on black paper. 20 x 16 in (50.8 x 40.6 cm). Estimate: $15,000-20,000. Offered in First Open from 2-17 July 2024 at Christie’s New York. Tauba Auerbach’s oeuvre is united by a continued curiosity about where logic breaks down and a willingness to test boundaries across media in a scientific, even mathematical, way. Auerbach’s Fold paintings brought widespread acclaim in 2009, when they were exhibited at MoMA PS1 followed by the 2010 Whitney Biennial, and other series based in language, glass, musical instruments, and more have kept Auerbach at the forefront of radical art practice. With a sprawling cross-media exhibition at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art in 2022, they show no sign of letting up, continuing to reinvent the frontier of contemporary art. 5. Josh Kline, 99% Recyclable $15,000–20,000 Josh Kline (b. 1979), 99% Recyclable, 2016. Polyethylene terephthalate, granny cart, polyethylene bags, rubber, Plexiglas, LEDs and power source. 39 x 23 x 32½ in (99 x 58.4 x 82.6 cm). Estimate $15,000-20,000. Offered in First Open from 2-17 July 2024 at Christie’s New York. Josh Kline belongs to a broad group of artists whose central focus is the impact of technology on society. It’s a wide net to cast, but he approaches it with knowledge and care, as in the installations that made his name, like Skittles, which was displayed along the High Line in New York in 2014, and Freedom at the New Museum Triennial in 2015. Kline had his first United States museum survey, with Project for a New American Century at the Whitney Museum of American Art in 2023. It underscored his deft engagement with a variety of technologies and practices — including data collection, image manipulation, propaganda, advertising and substances designed to boost productivity — which he consciously turns against themselves. He is a rare breed of artist capable of pointed critiques of society and culture, while maintaining a sense of humour, often a dark one. 6. Cosima von Bonin, Decoy (Der Krake #3) $20,000–30,000 Cosima von Bonin (b. 1962), Decoy (Der Krake #3), 2007. Stuffed fabric and glass on a wood base. Octopus: 24 x 112 x 114 in (61 x 284.5 x 289.6 cm); overall: 26 x 115 x 117 in (66 x 291.2 x 297.2 cm). Estimate: $20,000-30,000. Offered in The Rosa de la Cruz Collection Online Sale from 2-18 July at Christie’s New York As an artist whose primary inspiration comes from personal experiences of the everyday, Cosima von Bonin employs a colourful, happy visual language cut through with unsettling and dark undertones. She assembles readymades, appropriates imagery and sews quilts, aligning herself with vanguard art practices of the past as she portrays and subverts current societal conventions. She just concluded her exhibition Feelings at the Shirn Kunsthalle Frankfurt in June, and has consistently exhibited internationally for more than two decades. 7. Vojtěch Kovařík, Ceramist $50,000–70,000 Vojtěch Kovařík (b. 1993), Ceramist, 2020. Acrylic on canvas. 39½ x 27¾ in (100 x 70 cm). Estimate: $50,000-70,000. Offered in First Open from 2-17 July 2024 at Christie’s New York. In Vojtěch Kovařík's paintings, the distinction between history and myth is left deliberately unclear. Taking style cues from muralists like Diego Rivera and the socialist realists of communist Czechoslovakia, he flattens, stretches and tightly fits his subjects within the bounds of his canvasses. The figures are monumental, godlike, but they wear their emotions in a way heroes rarely do. Many of his works present deified characters like Odysseus, Aphrodite and Hercules gazing enigmatically outside of the painting. The artist takes these figures — like the ceramicist holding an amphora in the present Ceramist — and removes them from their history, their myth. Through simply rendered images and exaggerated colour and proportion, Kovařík is able to rehumanise gods, bringing their struggles and experiences into the present tense. 8. Vaughn Spann, A House on Fire (Marked Man) $50,000–70,000 Vaughn Spann (b. 1992), A House on Fire (Marked Man), 2023. polymer paint and mixed media on wood panel. 84 x 84 in (213.4 x 213.4 cm). Estimate $50,000-70,000. Offered in The Rosa de la Cruz Collection Online Sale from 2-18 July at Christie’s New York Florida-born and Connecticut-based Vaughn Spann walks the line between figuration and abstraction. His work has been steadily on the rise for the past few years, especially pieces from his ‘X’ series. A Miami-born artist, his work is emblematic of Rosa de la Cruz’s collection, which continues this Summer after its success this past Spring. A House on Fire (Marked Man) belongs to Spann’s ‘Marked Man’ series, all of which bear the archetypal ‘X’ symbol. They relate to Spann’s personal experience of being stopped by the police. To him it’s an interpretive symbol with many meanings, including being the image of stop-and-frisk with one’s hands and legs spread, and another the simple ‘X marks the spot’. 9. Ali Banisadr, Alchemy $60,000–80,000 Ali Banisadr (b. 1976), Alchemy, 2015. Oil and linen. 32 x 26 in (81.3 x 66 cm). Estimate $60,000-80,000. Offered in First Open from 2-17 July 2024 at Christie’s New York. Ali Banisadr was only four years old when the Iran-Iraq War began in 1980. His childhood was coloured by the horror and sensory overload of living in wartime Tehran. His work focusses on themes of war but often blur reality and dream, and his monumental visions have been compared to Heironymous Bosch, albeit with bolder, more vivid colours and an underlying darkness. The comparison stems both from the sheer chaos of his compositions and from the way they reward close looking. Hidden beneath visual overwhelm, we find moments of hope. Even in his more abstract works, such as Alchemy, there is a quiet interplay between dark and light. ML Staff. Content/image courtesy of Christies. Click here for the latest Christies auctions
- The Patek Philippe Salons in Geneva Exhibit the Largest “Rare Handcrafts” Collection Ever
If you're heading to Geneva, don't miss this special watch exhibition!

The event includes live demonstrations by artisan engravers, enamellers, guillocheurs (engine-turners), and wood-marquetry makers. Patek Philippe, a guardian of the Genevan watchmaking tradition since 1839, has always preserved and promoted the rare handcrafts that decorate timepieces.

It highlights a vast range of artistic skills, from centuries-old techniques like Grand Feu cloisonné enamel and hand engraving to modern innovations like micro wood marquetry. The collection's themes are equally diverse, drawing inspiration from traditional art forms to modern leisure activities and the cultures and landscapes of every continent. The exhibition is divided into three areas, each showcasing the unique decorations and craftsmanship of the pieces. In the central area, visitors are greeted by twelve Calatrava wristwatches representing the zodiac constellations. These watches feature dials adorned with various enamel techniques, creating a modern and striking look. The salon facing the lake groups pieces that pay tribute to nature, with detailed decorations of flora, fauna, and landscapes. Highlights include the “Portrait of a White Egret” pocket watch and the “Japanese Garden” Golden Ellipse wristwatch. The salon on rue du Rhône celebrates human endeavor with themes ranging from surfing and American cars to billiards and the works of famous artists like Alfons Mucha and Gustav Klimt. The exhibition also includes demonstrations by artisans, showcasing techniques such as hand engraving, enameling, and marquetry. Visitors can see these experts at work and learn about the tools and processes involved. The “Rare Handcrafts 2024” exhibition is open to the public with free admission. It runs from April 13 to 27, 2024, at the Patek Philippe Salons in Geneva, at 41 rue du Rhône, every day except Sunday, from 11:00 to 18:00 (last entry at 17:00).

- Miami Dolphins Sign Jaylen Waddle To Contract Extension
The Miami Dolphins announced they have signed wide receiver Jaylen Waddle to a contract extension through the 2028 season. Waddle was a first-round pick (sixth overall) by Miami in the 2021 NFL Draft. He's started 47 games with Miami, recording 251 receptions for 3,385 yards (13.5 avg.) and 18 touchdowns. He recorded his third consecutive 1,000-yard receiving season in 2023, becoming the first player in franchise history to do so.
