Ray was personable and made us feel at ease, kept us updated through the whole process. Both gentlemen made our purchasing experience a memorable one. We will definitely be coming back for our next luxury vehicle. Thank you Eurobahn for having awesome employees. "
Every time I come here the service just gets better and better!
" Every time I come here the service just gets better and better! This time I came and the service was amazing, especially compared to Mercedes with my old car. They took great care of me and the car and everything is just amazing. I have drove my Mercedes Benz for almost 10 years now and they have never let me feel the satisfaction from customer service that I got from Mercedes Benz and I've only had my Mercedes for 3 years. Today Ray and Rodgers helped me with my car today and it was really nice and good to see patient and nice customer service compared to other places. I Highly recommend this place. Cars and service just amazing. "
Thank you Eurobahn Audi Greensboro A+A+A+A Team
" All you have to do is just spend a few minutes with them and you will see how passionate they are about the automotive industry. The shop is always clean. I can't see why anyone would go anywhere else. These guys have been working on my two cars My Audi a4 and my wife's VW Beetle for over 4 years and I don't know what I would do without them. Once you go you will be convinced that they are there to take care of you. Many times Eurobahn has educated me on areas of my car I didn't know about. Nobody has ever taken the time to explain things to me like that. Its a level of respect that puts them above and beyond the rest and they are a whole lot cheaper than the dealership. Thank you Eurobahn Audi A+A+A+A Team. For More Info "
I'll never take my car anywhere else

Eurobahn Mercedes Greensboro was amazing!
" I recently bought my Mercedes to Eurobahn Greensboro. I usually do not write reviews, but the experienced with Eurobahn Mercedes Greensboro was amazing I Recently I had a concerning service issue, especially to a woman, and without a great amount of explaining, ray left his office and came to the service department to offer his assistance, something you never see a manager do as he did, especially in this day & age. Ray provided customer service above & beyond without a doubt that should be an example that others strive for. Because of this ongoing great service Eurobahn Greensboro Mercedes- has provided me, I have recommended two of my friends & business associates to them, and one of them purchased a car from them and from what I heard they had a really good experience. I highly recommend them to anyone that Owens an import vehicle to the GREAT SERVICE I received, both in the sales & service department. For More Info "
Thank you for everything!
" Around 9 months ago, I bought a pre-owned BMW vehicle for my younger son from Eurobahn. The staff there assisted me like professionals and provided me every bit of information I was looking for. I Chatted with them for some time then we went for the test drive. To my surprise, the car was in excellent condition with brand new showroom like shine. After the complete inspection and negotiation, I sealed the deal. Thank you for everything!"

Very respectful people and pricing is reasonable for German makes
I've only had alignment work done here and purchased a few parts. Very respectful people and pricing is reasonable for German makes. And they go the extra mile without making a big deal about it -- like its normal. They needed to keep my car for the day and offered a ride to my business AND picked me back up once the service as completed. If i need any major work done I wouldn't hesitate to come here.

I am very please with Eurobahn BMW MINI Mercedes-Benz Audi of Greensboro
I am very pleased with Eurobahn BMW MINI Mercedes-Benz Audi of Greensboro They have done quite a bit of work on my Mercedes (CLK 320- 2002 Conv.) I felt very comfortable and confident in them working on my car. When I speak with Dustin or Ray, they take time out to go over what's wrong with my car and what I need for my car, explaining it very well. I've heard so many horrible stories regarding mechanic shops trying to get over on women. I didn't feel this at all with Dustin or Ray. I am very comfortable in trusting their judgment regarding my vehicle; their prices are also reasonable as well. Its good to have a mechanic shop you can trust and with Dustin and Ray customer satisfactory is definitely their NO#1 priority. Also, I'm not sure of the mechanic names who work on my vehicle but what I can say is, all the work that was done on my vehicle its been done right. I haven't had any problems with the work they have done on my car great team!! Thank You. Evelyn Miller"

Buying A Business: Ten Tips For Entrepreneursby Scott Edward Walker on October 6th, 2009
As I have previously noted, I was a corporate attorney for nearly eight years at two major law firms in New York City; and the majority of my work there was spent negotiating and documenting large mergers and acquisitions for multinational corporations, financial institutions and private equity firms. When I moved out here to California in 2005 and started focusing on representing entrepreneurs (which meant predominately middle-market M&A transactions), I was surprised to see how unsophisticated a lot of the players are here; in short, it's a different environment than New York. Nevertheless, I love living in California, and I am trying to provide to entrepreneurs (via these blog posts) some legal tips and lessons I learned at the big firms in New York City. Below are ten tips for entrepreneurs who are contemplating acquiring a private company. (more…)

Bougainville Reef is a small reef in the Northern Coral Sea surrounded by some amazing dive sites. Only four kilometres in diameter, and offering no shelter in rough weather, Bougainville Reef is usually only dived on a stop-off between other reefs in this remote area.
Wall diving is the name of the game at Bougainville Reef, with walls plunging into one kilometre offering exciting diving. Decorating these walls are spectacular corals – giant soft corals, red whip corals, wide gorgonian fans and black coral trees.
Cruising these walls are large pelagic fish like barracuda, trevally, tuna and mackerel, and often following them are grey reef sharks, whitetip reef sharks and silvertip sharks. Many caves, gutters and ledges are also found at Bougainville Reef, so take a torch to explore these darker recesses.
There is also a shipwreck to investigate at Bougainville Reef, with the broken up remains of the MV Antonia Tarabocchia scattered in depths from 6 metres to 18 metres.

25 Formerly Popular Dishes Restaurants No Longer Serve Gallery
If you were to travel back in time 100 years and visit a restaurant, be it a high-end French gastronomic temple or a no-frills lunch counter, a glance at the menu would most likely send your head spinning. Menus are ever-evolving creatures, and even in the past 50 years certain dishes that were once quite popular have gone the way of the dodo.
Popular tastes change over time, and these dishes have fallen out of favor for a wide variety of reasons. Some are very heavy, and tend to rely on complicated French techniques; some have vanished because they rely on animals (or organs) that the masses have simply stopped eating for a wide variety of reasons; and some, well, just aren't very popular any more.
From humble workingman's fare to outrageously ostentatious entrees, read on for a glimpse at some food items that, for better or worse, have all but disappeared from American menus.Mypointofview | Dreamstime.com
Veal Cordon Bleu
This dish originated in Switzerland, and is a riff on traditional schnitzel. But instead of just frying the pounded veal cutlet, it's stuffed with ham and an easily meltable cheese (generally Swiss or Gruyère), rolled up into a roulade, and then deep-fried. This was another staple of fine dining restaurants from the 1950s right into the 1990s, but in recent years the heavy dish, like the similar chicken Kiev (which is stuffed with garlic butter) and its counterpart chicken cordon bleu, has fallen well out of fashion.Shutterstock
Sole Véronique
This dish was invented by one of the greatest chefs who ever lived, Auguste Escoffier, during a visit to London, and he named it in honor of the opening of a French opera there. Its name? Véronique. It's a fairly simple preparation of Dover sole poached in white wine and topped with a sauce of heavy cream, fresh herbs, and grapes. And while grapes and fish might not make for an obvious pairing, audiences around the globe went crazy for it, and it became a French restaurant mainstay. Today the dish has all but vanished.smithn.net
Consommé Madrilène
If there's a trend to this list, it's the fact that most of these vanished dishes are rather difficult to prepare. Such is the case with consommé madrilène, a traditional French clear soup with tomatoes as the star ingredient. Consommé, which is a rich broth that's crystal clear thanks to the laborious process of constantly skimming the top while it's cooking, is traditionally served cold and is another vanishing dish. But this particular preparation, another staple of haute French cuisine, is rarer still.mission-food.com
Coquille St. Jacques
There was a time when Coquilles St. Jacques - another rich French dish of scallops sautéed in butter, topped with Gruyère and breadcrumbs, and then broiled - was so popular that even Julia Child published a recipe for it. Yet another French restaurant mainstay, it's a dish that's simply not served in all but the stuffiest of old-school French restaurants these days.iStockphoto/thinkstock
Abalone Meunière
This dish was always considered a delicacy, another West Coast specialty that had a brief, booming heyday and has since vanished into obscurity. Meunière sauce, similar to the already-mentioned amandine sauce, is a simple mixture of butter, parsley, and lemon juice, and in this preparation, abalone (a type of edible sea snail) is pounded thin, sautéed in butter, sliced, and served topped with the sauce. The dish was incredibly popular in the mid-20th century; so popular, in fact, that some restaurants substituted large calamari for abalone and diners were none the wiser. The poor shellfish was nearly driven to extinction, and finally restaurants stopped serving it. The dish has experienced a slight resurgence thanks to some thriving abalone farms, but due to the fact that table-ready farmed abalone takes many years to reach the preferred size of about 7 inches, odds are it will never experience the kind of nationwide popularity of its heyday.Real Good Fish
Mutton Chops
Lamb has long been a fine-dining menu staple, but it was once joined by mutton, or fully-grown sheep. Mutton has a much stronger flavor than lamb, and as tastes have changed mutton has gone virtually extinct from restaurant menus. Even at New York's famed Keens Steakhouse, where a mutton chop has been one of the most popular dishes for over 100 years, today it's made with lamb.istockphoto
Stewed Kidneys
Lamb or beef kidneys weren't uncommon on fancy menus in the late 1800s and early 1900s; usually they'd be simply cooked with stock, garlic, and herbs and served on toast.istockphoto
Petite Marmite
Petite marmite, which translates to "little cooking pot" in French, was another semi-common dish around the turn of the 20th century. It's basically a clear beef and vegetable soup, made in an earthenware pot and usually served with shredded cabbage and marrow bones.istockphoto
Turtle was once far more popular a menu item than it currently is; whereas nowadays it only appears in soup at a handful of restaurants, 100 years ago terrapin (usually from Maryland) was actually pretty common on fancy menus, in a variety of preparations: Newburg, stewed, in several types of soup, a l'Indiana (not quite sure what that means), and even roasted fin. These dishes died out as terrapins became rarer and more expensive.istockphoto
Snipe, Plover, Woodcock, and Other Small Birds
It seems as if no fine-dining feast of the late 1800s was complete without a variety of small roasted game birds being served. English snipe, woodcock, plover, ortolan, partridge, and other small birds were common, and some were even small enough to be eaten whole. Several different varieties of ducks were also common high-end restaurant offerings, including teal, mallard, canvasback, ruddy, and red-head. Today, the only small birds still found on menus are generally quail and squab.istockphoto
Caviar Sandwiches
Believe it or not, caviar was once up there with ham, roast beef, and corned beef as a sandwich filling, and it was just as inexpensive. We're obviously not talking about beluga caviar here, as the sandwich was most commonly found on menus at lunch counters and bars, simply served on toast. Today, New York's Grand Central Oyster Bar is one of the few remaining restaurants that serve it, and it costs less than 15 bucks.Eevlva | Dreamstime.com
Minute Steak
Minute steak - a steak sliced or pounded so thinly that they cook up in a minute - can still be found at supermarkets, but it was once also a common item on less-expensive menus, especially around the middle of the 20th century, usually served with herbed butter.stockcreations | Dreamstime.com
Milk Toast
If you dropped by a breakfast-centric restaurant, like Child's in New York City, 100 years ago, you would have found a curious item alongside the griddle cakes, French toast, and corn muffins: milk toast. It's basically a slice of toast that's topped with a sweet, roux-thickened, milk-based sauce. It's pleasingly innocuous and inoffensive, explaining why people who match that description are commonly described as "milquetoast."Alexander Mychko | Dreamstime.com
Chicken a la King
Chicken a la King's origins are unclear - it was most likely created in the late 1880s or early 1890s in either London, Philadelphia, or New York - but it remained an incredibly popular dish right up to the late 20th century. It's a relatively simple dish of chicken, mushrooms and vegetables in a sherry-kicked cream sauce, served over pasta or toast. Today, the heavy, creamy dish is all but extinct from restaurant menus.Paul Cowan | Dreamstime.com
Oyster Pan Roast
A "pan roast" of oysters (or less commonly, clams) was a fairly common menu item in the first few decades of the 20th century, as just about every restaurant on the East Coast, regardless of price, served oysters of some sort. This preparation is pretty archaic, and only a handful of restaurants still serve it, including New Orleans' Palace Café and New York's Grand Central Oyster Bar. It's made of oysters simmered and served in a savory cream-based mixture.Terry B./Yelp
Sardine Sandwiches
Just like caviar sandwiches, canned sardine sandwiches were once commonly found on lunch counter menus, especially in the first few decades of the 20th century. You won't encounter too many sardine sandwiches these days, but if you've never had a sardine before, try it - they're good!iStockPhoto
Macédoine, sometimes called Macedonia, is essentially a salad made up of diced fruits or vegetables. (It got its name from the mixture of people in Alexander the Great's Macedonian Empire.) The dish once appeared as both an appetizer and a dessert on fancy menus; as an appetizer it contained vegetables, and as a dessert is contained fruit. Over the years, it's transformed into something we see a little more commonly today: fruit salad.Ppy2010ha | Dreamstime.com
Salade Francillon
Here's a dish we bet you haven't heard of, even though it was once found on many fine dining menus, especially in the late 1800s. Salade Francillon is a cold salad composed of sliced boiled potatoes and mussels tossed in a vinaigrette and topped with herbs and sliced truffles. Fancy!simona flamigni | Dreamstime.com
Denver Sandwich
It wasn't uncommon to encounter a Denver sandwich on casual lunch menus in the mid-20th century. But what is it, exactly? If you know what a Denver omelette is, you're almost there: an omelette made with chopped onion, bell pepper, and occasionally ham, between two slices of bread.Alexander Mychko | Dreamstime.com
Turkey Tetrazzini
Another mid-century classic, Turkey Tetrazzini is perhaps best known today as an easy-to-cook casserole of diced turkey, spaghetti, mushrooms, grated cheese, and cream sauce that was a postwar staple. It was actually invented around 1910, however, at either the Palace Hotel in San Francisco or the Knickerbocker Hotel in New York, and while the original recipe wasn't a casserole, it didn't differ too much from its '50s counterpart. It enjoyed a heyday on a wide variety of restaurant menus in the '20s and '30s, but today has all but vanished (at restaurants, at least; plenty of people still make it at home, especially with Thanksgiving leftovers).Mypointofview | Dreamstime.com
Mock Apple Pie
Remember mock apple pie? The recipe was printed on the back of Ritz Crackers boxes for decades starting during the Great Depression, when fresh apples were hard to come by. It's made by replacing apples with Ritz crackers, and believe it or not, the final product actually tastes a lot like apple pie. It became a popular restaurant dessert at around the same time it become popular to cook at home, and remained fairly common for decades thereafter, but you'd be hard-pressed to find it on a restaurant menu nowadays.Floortje/ iStockPhoto
Chicken Vol-au-Vent
A vol-au-vent is a hollow, filled puff pastry, popularized by legendary French chef Marie-Antoine Carême in the early 1800s. By the end of the century, many fine restaurants in the U.S. were serving the dish in varying sizes, from nearly a foot across for large groups to small individual portions. They were traditionally filled with a creamy chicken mixture. Today you may still see mini vol-au-vents at cocktail parties, but rarely (if ever) on restaurant menus.iStockPhoto
Cold Boned Capon in Jelly
A capon is larger and more flavorful than a traditional chicken (capons are male chickens that are castrated at a young age and fed a milk-based diet), and they used to be much more common on menus than they are today. One popular preparation in the early 1900s was to debone it, encase it in a savory jelly, and slice it to order, similar to a modern-day terrine.Viktorija Puke | Dreamstime.com
Pickled Lamb's Tongue
You don't see tongue on restaurant menus anymore, unless you're at a Jewish deli or a taqueria, but up until four or five decades ago it was incredibly common, especially on a sandwich. Tongue experienced a bit of a heyday in the early 1900s, when you'd find it on sandwiches as well as the main course, occasionally smoked, occasionally pickled, occasionally beef, occasionally lamb.Boris Ryzhkov | Dreamstime.com
Tête de Veau
Calf's heads, removed of all fat, skin, and fur before being rolled, tied, poached for 5 or so hours, and sliced, was once a staple of French fine dining restaurants, but now has all but vanished from American restaurants (even though it can still be found in some parts of Europe). The dish, which is incredibly laborious and time-consuming to produce, is usually served topped with a vinaigrette or sauce ravigote. And while you may have found it on fancy menus back in the day, it's one of many, many recipes that nobody in America makes any more.

Ibrahim Sundiata to be celebrated at retirement
Affable and demanding, he shaped African and Afro-American Studies
Ibrahim Sundiata has done well for someone who, by his own admission, made a mistake when he chose the site for his dissertation fieldwork.
"Equatorial Guinea was an obscure and sanguinary place," the Samuel and Augusta Spector Professor of History said in a recent interview. "I ended up under house arrest. Then I went to Liberia. By the 1980s, both of them were on lockdown."
Sly humor, gentility and self-deprecation are hallmarks of Sundiata's style. It will be on offer for one of the last times in a long academic career Friday afternoon when colleagues, students and alumni gather from 2 to 4:30 p.m. in Rapaporte Treasure Hall to celebrate Sundiata on the occasion of his retirement.
Ibrahim Sundiata
"I knew in high school that I wanted to be a historian," Sundiata said, recalling the influence of an adopted uncle who was a university librarian, and who gave him advanced reading at an early age.
He wavered between Latin America and Africa as an area of concentration, finally choosing Africa because of the post-colonial politics, anti-apartheid activities and independence movements of the time.
When he ran into difficulties maneuvering in post-colonial regimes that were often bloody and seldom free, "a friend said 'You've got to get interested in Brazil. You need a Fulbright.'"
Off he went to teach African history at the Federal University of Bahia in Salvador, Brazil, where he learned Portuguese and found a sort of second home. He has been there more times than he can remember. Sundiata taught at Rutgers, Northwestern – where he'd earned his PhD, and the University of Illinois at Chicago, then received an invitation to apply for the chairmanship of Brandeis' Department of African and Afro-American Studies.
Sundiata, who was born in Ashtabula, Ohio, left Brandeis from 1998 to 2002 to chair the Department of History at Howard University in Washington, D.C., where he grew up. Following a fellowship at Harvard's W.E.B. Du Bois Institute, he returned to Brandeis.
No university is perfect, he says, but "I've been other places and Brandeis has been a great experience for me. There is a certain openness. I never felt pressure to conform to anything, or have a certain political view."
"Brandeis is different – it really does engage in social justice, and the students are very bright," he says. "One of my greatest joys is I've had some very serious students who took on interesting projects and now are working for big NGOs in Latin America and Africa."
Faith Smith, a close colleague who is an associate professor of African and Afro-American Studies and English, said Sundiata is "someone who can turn current political life and also history into a joke or an anecdote that gives cheer. Connected to that is an extraordinary memory for dates, and also for film. His filmography is kind of astonishing."
In addition to his work on Africa and Latin America, she noted, Sundiata has had an abiding interest in the relationship between African Americans and Jewish Americans. He traveled to Israel in 2010 to deliver a paper on that subject at Ben Gurion University, and last year, as retirement loomed, he reprised a course he originated in the 1990s on the History of Black/Jewish Relations in America.
The author of five books, Sundiata also has lectured recently in Africa, Australia and at leading American universities. He won Brandeis' Lerman-Neubauer Award for Teaching and Mentoring in 2005.
Chad Williams, the current chair of African and Afro-American Studies, said that Sundiata's scholarship and his role in shaping the department "made Brandeis very attractive me. When I came to interview, he was incredibly gracious, as is his nature. He took it upon himself to show me the entire campus. He is a mountain of information about the history of the institution and the department, and made it very clear that Brandeis would be a great fit for me."

Johnson City, Tenn. -- East Tennessee State's Ed Sparks went 2-4 with four RBIs and three runs scored to lead the Bucs in a 13-12 win against Belmont at ETSU's Cardinal Park. The hit parade included 38 hits, but only six extra-base hits.
Belmont (27-25) opened the game with four consecutive knocks. Luke Hansen and Grant Martin both singled before a Jerrod Smith double scored Hansen. Josh Brummett followed with a single that plated Martin. ETSU starter Shannon Carter closed the door on the Bruins with a double play and a strikeout.
The Bucs struck back with three runs in the home half of the first. After a Jeremy Terry walk and a Danny Pugh single, Sparks doubled to left field that scored the pair. A Chad Boruff walk and a Raymond McBride single loaded the bases. Nathan Copeland bounced into a fielder's choice that scored Sparks to give the Bucs a 3-2 lead.
ETSU (19-27) scored seven runs on six hits in the bottom of the second. Matt Nunley had two hits, one RBI and one run scored in the frame. Boruff also added a two-run single. Belmont closed the gap to 10-6 with four runs in the top of the third. The Bruins had six singles, including four in a row, in the frame.
In the fourth inning, Sparks recorded his fourth RBI with his second double of the game that gave the Bucs a 12-7 lead. The Bucs added one in the fifth before Belmont scored three in the top of the sixth to make the score 13-10. The Bruins could have been closer but left fielder McBride cut down Belmont's Mike Martin attempting to score on a Jesse Colbert single to end the inning.
For the first time in the game the Bucs failed to score, in the bottom of the sixth. Belmont got within two runs in the seventh with a Luke Hansen run.
ETSU reliever Jackson Simerly came on in the eighth and set down the Bruins. However, in the ninth Hansen homered to make the score 13-12. Simerly struck out the next two Bruins to earn his fifth save of the season.
Nunley, Terry and Pugh all collected three hits for the Bucs. Carter improved to 2-3 on the season, while Belmont starter Jason Anderegg fell to 6-8 with the loss.
The Bucs will return to action at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, May 10 against Georgia Tech in Atlanta, Ga.

Wafting around the sunny suburbs of Paris in the back of a Citroen DS, it was hard not to give a presidential wave to the pedestrians who stopped to stare and point.
There is something about the original automotive "goddess" that makes you feel slightly superior just by being associated with it.
Maybe it's the styling – which still looks futuristic today – the luxury of its sumptuous leather and metal-adorned interior or the fact that it is associated with one of France's most celebrated leaders.
In pictures – 100 years of Citroen celebrated with spectacular Parisian display
Whatever it is, it feels absolutely wonderful and my only disappointment was that I didn't get to take the wheel myself – the owner was not letting any old hack loose in his pride and joy.
Not every owner at a special centenary event for Citroen was so precious, which is how I found myself puttering around the outskirts of the French capital at the wheel of a 1956 Traction Avant.
The Traction Avant is the sort of car you see in period TV shows to let you know it's set a really long time ago. And there are some elements of it that feel distinctly old-fashioned. The almost complete lack of brakes, for a start, the tiny metal handle on the dash that you pull to start it, and a steering wheel so big and heavy it should be on a ship. Even the gear change – three speeds, dash-mounted and with a bizarre shift pattern illustrated in beautiful metalwork – is a world away from today's flappy-paddle DSGs. But like everything else, it was surprisingly easy to get to grips with.
Likewise, the legendary gearshift in the 2CV that requires to be twisted and pulled in a variety of directions sounds daunting but is actually pretty straightforward once it's been explained in garbled Franglish.
The 2CV's biggest problem, in fact, besides the wafer-thin bodywork and non-existent legroom, is a brake pedal so small and pressed against the steering column that it's hard to find.
This wonderful pair of machines were the oldest among a line-up of cars that stretched from 1955 to the present day.
They were there to celebrate Citroen's 100th birthday and, according to the PR team, to allow us to experience the firm's dedication to innovation and comfort over the last century.
A cynical ex-C2 owner might briefly question that dedication but a few hours at the wheel of these classics and some more modern machines proved that it's more than just a publicity ploy.
The hydro-pneumatic suspension, which premiered on the glorious DS, is perhaps its most famous contribution to comfort but even before then Citroen was innovating.
Its first model – the Type A – featured unusual quarter-elliptic springs to offer better ride comfort than other early cars. The Traction Avant introduced the world's first rubber engine mounts to reduce vibrations and featured the early use of independent front suspension. And the 2CV's suspension was famously engineered to allow it to be driven over a ploughed field without damaging its cargo.
There were no fields on our test route but the way the narrow-nosed "snail" glided over the Parisian speed bumps genuinely put most modern SUVs to shame. It was almost on its door handles going round roundabouts but that's the price you paid for a smooth ride in the 60s.
It was still the price you paid in late 70s if my brief run in a CX GTI was anything to go by. Despite a nippy 2.4-litre engine, the baggy, squishy CX is perhaps the least sporty GTI I've ever experienced but like the 2CV and Traction Avant, it dispatched lumps and bumps with a barely perceptible Gallic shrug.
The worst body roll excesses had been well tamed by the time the more modern fare such as the XM and C6 arrived and while they lacked a little of the character and quirkiness they maintained that cloud-like gliding of the early cars.
The 25-year-old XM in particular felt remarkably modern. With a few age-related quirks – a keypad-operated immobiliser and LCD displays – it trod a fine line between the wild single-spoke steering wheel and dash-mounted controls of the CX and the more conventional 21st-century button-fest of the C6.
Citroen, in general hasn't been afraid to experiment with its interiors. That's how we ended up with the ingenious three-leaf-clover seating arrangement in the C3Type, the 2CV's removable hammock seats and the DS's Dunlopillo cushions tuned to match the suspension characteristics. It's also how we got the CX's indicator switch mounted on the dashboard and amazing illuminated drum dials, both of which sound ridiculous but work surprisingly well.
It's not always been successful. Putting the gear level behind the steering wheel in a DS seems deliberately awkward and the less said about the first-generation Cactus the better. But Citroen has always innovated.
In the latest cars that involves the Advance Comfort seats, which blend various foam densities to be squishy yet supportive, and progressive hydraulic cushion suspension.
This replacement for the hydro-pneumatic suspension features specially developed three-stage dampers to recreate the "magic carpet" ride of old in new models such as the C4 Cactus and C5 Aircross. The active setup means that, like their aged predecessors, they glide over rough surfaces that would set your teeth rattling in "sporty" rivals.
Modern design philosophies and safety regulations mean that the sleek minimalist lines and chrome and glass highlights of older models are gone for good, replaced with swollen bodywork and plastic protuberances of the current crop.
Yet, under the bubbly bodywork, the new models continue to come up with creative ways of offering effortless comfort to passengers, just as those earliest models did.
Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose, as they might say in Paris.

One of the things I love about unschooling is that I'm often exposed to things/experiences that I might not explore on my own if it weren't for my kids. One of those experiences that's come up recently is sewing.
I've had my mom's old sewing machine in my basement for years. I had a brief desire to learn to sew (beyond what I did in home-ec class in high school) when Ava was a baby. I tried sewing some diaper inserts for her FuzziBunz. My mom helped me with them and it was fine, but I never got excited about it. Once a few inserts were sewn, back into the basement the sewing machine went.
Fast forward nine years (has it really been that long?!) and my formerly cloth-diapered baby has expressed an interest in learning to sew. Some friends of her's recently made doll clothes for her American Girl doll for Ava's birthday and another friend sewed a dress for her own doll. There's nothing like friends learning to do something cool to give you a little push in the same direction. Ava decided she wanted to learn to sew too.
I hauled the old White Jeans Machine from the basement and was pleasantly surprised to find it already threaded, since I really had no idea how to do it myself! Ava and I grabbed an old shirt and I set her up to practice. She loved it!
Then the needle came unthreaded and it was up to me to figure out how to thread it again. Thankfully the sewing machine has a little diagram on it which made threading it easier than I thought. It took a little trial and error, but I got it going again. Woot! I got to learn something too! The practicing resumed.
A couple of days later we made a stop at my mom's house to check out her fabric stash. Ava picked out a few fabrics to try making doll-sized pillows. And I chose several scraps to make into prayer flags for our sunroom — something I'd actually been wanting to do for several weeks after reading a guest post Create an Outdoor Space You Love on my friend Sara's blog. I already added a few throw rugs and twinkle lights, but it still needed more color.
After I helped Ava a bit with sewing her doll pillow, I was excited to get to work on my prayer flags. I ended up needing my mom's help with loading a bobbin, but once I got that down, I was set. It felt good to made something and I'm happy with how they turned out. I plan to make a second set for Ava's bedroom.
I think it's pretty awesome that my mom's old (can I call it mine now?) sewing machine sat for years without getting any love, but when the time was right, it was here for me, for Ava, for us. I'm happy to have it and am thankful that my mom passed it on to me way back when. I'm excited to see what kinds of things we create using this old machine and curious to see if my son will want to play with it too. He's done a tiny bit of sewing on it so far that first night I got it out. Time will tell. I do know that this time around the sewing machine won't be retiring to the basement any time soon!
I've since started sewing a little dress for Ava's doll. I'm mostly just playing around, but I'm having fun and isn't that how all of the best learning takes place anyway?
If anyone has any tips for teaching kids to sew or fun, easy sewing projects for adults and kids, I'm all ears. A friend of mine just told me about these paper sewing sheets for kids and I plan to print some out for myself as well as Ava. And I just came across 10 Simple Sewing Projects for Kids. I'm guessing there's a whole lot out there if I just start looking. Yay sewing!

Now this is breakfast.
If you are one of the many people traveling this weekend or visiting with family, there is a good chance you are with a group of people. I bet those people are hungry...and they like chocolate which means this is the perfect cake for you . This is a super rich and delicious Double Chocolate Loaf Cake, which I personally feel should be served for breakfast. This past Christmas Zack bought be a copy of "Baked Explorations: Classic Desserts Reinvented". What can I say, the man knows how to shop for me. This loaf cake was actually the very first thing I made out of the cookbook. The cookbook is fantastic and I have honestly loved every recipe I have made from it. You may be thinking "Wow, it took you a long time to actually get around to making something from that cookbook!" Well, you are wrong. I made this cake last December when we had friends staying with us for New Years and I honestly forgot to share it with you. For a while I was just waiting for the right occasion, but after a while I simply forgot. Better late than never! Anyway, this cake is really delicious. best served warm with the peanut butter spread and a tall glass of milk.
Double Chocolate Loaf Cake with Peanut Butter Cream Cheese Spread
recipe slightly adapted from Baked Explorations: Classic Desserts Reinvented
Ingredients for the Cake:
3/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1 cup dark unsweetened cocoa powder
1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
1 large egg yolk
3/4 cup buttermilk
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
8 ounces good-quality dark chocolate coarsely chopped
Ingredients for the Peanut Butter Cream Cheese Spread:
5 ounces cream cheese, softened
3 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
⅓ cup powdered sugar
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and position the rack in the center. Grease and flour a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan.
In a large bowl mix together the brown sugar, cocoa, flour, granulated sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs and egg yolk until blended, then add the buttermilk, oil, and vanilla. Whisk until combined. Slowly beat the wet ingredient into the dry ones, mixing until just until combined. Stir in the dark chocolate chunks by hand.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 1 hour to 1 hour and 10 minutes, or until a tooth pick inserted in the center of the loaf comes out clean. Let the cake cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then turn it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
To make the peanut butter spread, beat the cream cheese and peanut butter until smooth. Add the powdered sugar and beat until incorporated. If you are not using the spread immediately, place it in a small container, tightly cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for up to 3 days.

Heya sweeties !! As you can see I changed a little my blog`s aspect ( again ) and also I have made the best blogroll ever. Lately I made quite a lot of posts with furniture I just hope you guys like it.
This decor set is from Prism and it`s available at Arround the world, here I have put only a few parts because the hole set has 33 pieces and it`s a little hard to choke up all in such a small house. Inspiration theme is southern, well I like it very much because it`s like old and vintage, and beautiful colors.
From Arround the world I bring more knews: If you are a hair addict as me … well Alice Project has released 9 hairstyles, yup that`s right, and I am wearing this gorgeous Yuri style.
I fell in love with Nawja Eyes from Bilo, a certain color that I personally like so much is Mist Blue. If you visit Unhinged to win at gatchas some of this eyes remember that there is a music venue with cool DJ`s ready to enchant your ears with good music.There you will also find a new skin, Jane, from Ys&Ys wich I must say that I find the lips very similar with llips from the notorious mesh head Chloe.
Remember those awesome ripped mesh jeans 2 posts ago? Well Meli Imako has some pretty cool skinny jeans ripped on the knee that is similar with those capri.

Past Event
Mildred Sainer Pavilion
From the seeds of conflict comes an inspiring collaboration, as Bishara Haroni and Yaron Kohlberg, the preeminent pianists of their generation in their respective homelands – Palestine and Israel – bring "amal," the Arabic word for hope – with a varied repertoire ranging from the baroque to the modern period, and including works by Israeli and Palestinian composers. This performance is presented in partnership with New College of Florida.

candids snapped at
The Thrilla on the Hilla
The familiar sounds of music and laughter echoed across Violet Hill on April 14th and 15th, 2012, when once again the doors of the Shady Dell swung open to the public.
Scores of Dell rats scurried up the hill to revisit their old stomping ground and relive golden memories of their youth.
It was an opportunity for everyone to explore the Dell and see the results of two years of renovation work.
Nearly a century old but looking like new, the Shady Dell is
currently for sale by owner, the Deroches, Toni and Tom.
The candid camera was clicking all weekend as Dell alumni returned to their venerated alma mater.
The Walk of Fame (sidewalk) leading to The Magic Kingdom (the Dell) looked like the Red Carpet on Academy Awards night as cars pulled up, celebrities disembarked and made their way to the gala.
Who's that making his way down the paparazzi line wearing an original Shady Dell approved natural color Baracuta? Is it George Clooney?
No! It's my cousin, Bill Lewis, bass player for the popular York doo-wop group The Sting-Rays, posing above with wife Sally and another dignitary, the Dell's First Lady Toni Deroche.
My old buddy and fellow Dell rat Tom Landis (in the blue shirt) is a vocalist for the Sting-Rays. Tom assembled his men in the barn and entertained the crowd singing doo-wop songs a cappella. During the mid 60s Tom and I worked together at Weis Market on Edgar Street and gave each other rides to the Dell.
Here's one of John Ettline's nieces, Lynne Beck. Lynne is the daughter of John's sister, the late Louise E. Eppley, and the sister of my good friend Nancy Rae Sieling. Lynne posed next to the recently created collage of Dell memories that hangs on the wall of the great room which was once the snack bar.
There were Dell rats from the 1980s...
Dell rats from the 1970s...
Dell rats from the 1960s...
Dell rats from the 1950s....
There were even a couple of rats that hung out with Helen and John in the 40s. However, the Guest of Honor made those 80-somethings seem like baby Dell rats.
100 year old Margaret Elizabeth Brown Schneider, the oldest living Dell rat, arrived Sunday afternoon with her entourage. In no time, Margaret attracted a crowd.
Margaret was the center of attention, surrounded by curious visitors, fans and the news media.
Margaret, who lived at the Dell as a little girl, explored the first floor of her old home and noted how different it looks nearly a century later. She remarked that it is "beautiful." Memories flowed. In the front room, Margaret told daughter Kathleen, "That's where we had our couch, and over here is where the piano was."
Margaret made her way down the path to the barn and took a peek inside the old garage where she once played.
She also took a look around the barn/dance hall.
For the first time in decades rats packed the barn and music filled the air.
My good friend Greg "a Dell Rat All Ways" Gulden (above left) did an excellent job of summing up the historic Shady Dell Open House of 2012.
This was a weekend I will not
forget. Not only was Toni's
open house a success but a
new chapter has been added
to the history of the Dell.
When I got to the Dell Sunday afternoon it took me back
to the golden days. The lot was full and I had to make my
own spot to park. There were cars with out of state tags
on them, It was just like the old days.
The best part of the weekend was meeting Margaret Brown.
She is 100 years old and her father built the Dell house the
year she was born. She is one of the most beautiful ladies
you will meet.
I spoke with her son about the stories she would tell about
growing up in the Dell house and playing on the grounds.
When she saw the inside of the house she said its just
not the same. It reminded me of a saying, [You can
never go home again, only in the memories of your mind.]
When I walked in the barn the Sting Rays were singing.
It sure was good to hear that sound again in the barn.
I talked with Toni on Saturday and she said she hoped
the right person would buy the house, someone who
would take good care of it.
As my wife and I set out on the old outside dance floor
she looked at me and said there's something about it here
that makes you want to stay and not leave.

Bugs, biceps and beginnings -- A Progressive Top 10
Ballpark celebrates 20 years, and these moments stand out as its most memorable
CLEVELAND -- Jacobs or Progressive, The Jake or The Prog. Whatever you call it, the ballpark "on the corner of Carnegie and Ontario" has seen its share of unbelievable action over the last 20 years. And the man who so often calls the action at that intersection has seen and described just about every inning along the way.
So, we asked Tom Hamilton, the voice of the Indians, to narrow down the many magical moments at Progressive, nee Jacobs Field, to a single Top 10 list.
10. Jason Giambi's walk-off homer vs. the White Sox, Sept. 24, 2013: "Because of how that game went down -- you were going to lose it, based on [Chris] Perez blowing the lead in the ninth. I felt like if we lost that game, there's no way we make the playoffs. I just felt that that home run saved the season."
9. Albert Belle's grand slam off Lee Smith, July 18, 1995: "That was a Sunday night game, and those were the two best teams in the American League at that time. The Angels were loaded, and it looked like the Angels and Indians were headed for a collision in October. That was just one of those electric nights. Smith had that great line afterward: 'Albert hit it in the pork and beans,' referring to the picnic plaza. That night was when you knew that club was really special."
8. The AL Central clincher, Sept. 8, 1995: "I was just so amazed at the emotion in the ballpark and the city. Even though you knew it was coming, it was almost like a city didn't believe it was going to happen until it actually happened."
7. The All-Star Game, July 8, 1997: "I didn't get to broadcast it, but [my son] Nick and I were at the game. He was 7. We were sitting next to Marcus, who was Nick's age [and] Sandy [Alomar's] boy, and Sandy's wife at the time, Christie. We were sitting next to them, and Marcus' dad hits the game-winning home run. That just typified Sandy's year. It was such an incredible year for Sandy."
6. The rally against the Mariners, Aug. 5, 2001: "Seattle was the best team in the American League that year. It didn't look like we could compete, and then you're down 14-2? That was one of those games that only happens once in a lifetime. I'll never see a rally like that, I'm sure, as long as I live."
Most walk off wins 1994-2013
|Walk-off wins
5. "The Bug Game," Oct. 5, 2007: "Fausto Carmona [now Roberto Hernandez] pitches the game of his life, Travis Hafner gets a walk-off base hit. That put us up, 2-0. You really had a sense that was a special team, and that kind of verified it. And I think it's because it was against the Yankees. Any time you're beating the Yankees, it's a big deal. We had not beaten the Yankees in the regular season that year."
4. Game 4 of the AL Division Series against the Yankees, Oct. 5, 1997: "We were four outs away from elimination, and in '97, we were kind of 'Eh.' And Sandy ties it in the eighth inning off Mariano Rivera, and then we win it on a walk-off base hit [by Omar Vizquel] to stay alive. That home run by Sandy basically saved the whole season. If he doesn't hit that home run, we're done."
3. Game 1 of the AL Division Series against the Red Sox, Oct. 3, 1995: "You hadn't had postseason baseball in 41 years, people were so amped up for it, Boston had a good club. I felt if we lost that game, in a five-game series with the first game at home, I don't know if you ever recover. And the way they won it: Boston takes the lead in extra innings, Albert ties it with a home run -- and that was the biceps incident [Belle pointed at his biceps after being accused of corking his bat by Red Sox manager Kevin Kennedy] -- and then Tony Pena swings, 3-0, and gets the game-winning home run when he had the take sign? That game, to me, was a microcosm of the season. Always coming from behind, always winning it in your last at-bat."
2. Game 3 of the World Series against the Braves, Oct. 24, 1995: "The first World Series game in Cleveland in 41 years. Again, it was a must-win [game]. You're down 2-0, and nobody had ever come back from being down, 3-0. So the whole night was just really neat [the Indians won in 11 innings]."
1. Opening Day for Jacobs Field, April 4, 1994: "I hadn't been here as long as other people, obviously, but when I saw where they were going to build the ballpark, I was like, 'What? This parking lot on the edge of downtown?' It was inconceivable to me. But then when you got there, the park was even better than you envisioned. The ballpark legitimatized everything. You had Eddie Murray now, Orel Hershiser, Dennis Martinez -- those guys don't come without that new ballpark. And you thought you were going to have a really special team. The president's here, Randy Johnson has a no-hitter [going], and Bob Feller is pacing in the halls because he has the only Opening Day no-hitter. It was almost like all the magical moments began with that game. Wayne Kirby gets the game-winner in extra innings? It just felt like Cleveland had arrived in the big leagues with that park and that team, and to win it in that fashion."

Internet Marketing Promotion and Advertising is the key to success for any type of Internet Marketing Campaign. You will hear internet marketers tell many stories about their successful businesses online. But the problem is that there are thousands of stories contrary to theirs.
Millions of people have tried to launch online marketing plan since the inception of the internet. The majority of them were unsuccessful. Only a small fraction of them have succeeded in their endeavors.
Is Their Success Related to traffic?
You must know how to utilize the best available advertising methods to generate lots of traffic. This is what will eventually decide whether your business site gets enough traffic to make you a profit.
Why Do You Need Traffic?
Without traffic, all the enthusiasm and effort you put into your web site marketing and branding would just be a total waste. Traffic means lots of customers and buyers for your products.
Whether it's the internet or the main street, traffic generates paying customers to sell your products to. You will need traffic in large volumes to make a decent profit in your business.
How Do You Get Traffic?
How do you get enough traffic to visit your site and view your products? Only five to ten percent of traffic actually becomes your customers. Nonetheless, that small percentage should be enough to provide you with a profitable business if you have enough traffic in the first instance.
How Do You Get Free Traffic?
You can get free traffic from places such as Article Directories by submitting internet marketing articles, by issuing free Press Releases, by taking out ads on free ad-sites, by interacting with Social Networking/Web2 Sites and by posting comment on Forums relating to your niche.
You can also generate traffic by posting audio/videos on YouTube. Then there is the organic traffic you can receive by having your site optimized for the major search engines.
Where Do You Get Paid Traffic?
Paid advertising can be the key to getting lots of targeted traffic to visit your site. The more people that know about your site the better chance you have of them visiting it and buying some of your products.
The most popular paid advertising technique on the internet is PPC which stands for Pay-Per-Click. This operates on web sites, advertising networks and especially on search engine networks.

This week's post is a guest blog from Laura Dallas McSorley, a member of one of ACA's educational allies, Teach For America.
Camp Glisson was the most wonderful place I had been as a kid — almost magical. I had been to other day camps and even overnight camps, but nothing was like the first time I stepped onto the grounds of Glisson — beautifully nestled in the North Georgia mountains around a large waterfall, with an old wooden chapel. I went every summer, as did my siblings, and even my parents as a nurse or the minister for a week. (Glisson is a United Methodist camp.) When I was old enough, I was finally a counselor, getting to fulfill a long-held dream. Most of my co-counselors were passionate about Glisson's central mission: ministry to children. Many went on to go to divinity school or teach school.
I, however, couldn't imagine myself in the classroom or in a church. Instead, I spent the next several summers dedicated to various social justice causes that pulled me away from camp — homelessness prevention and housing reform, advocacy on my college campus. And as I began to dig deeper, exploring not just the effects but the root causes of the social injustices I saw around me, I found Teach For America (TFA). After graduation, I headed to Washington, DC, to teach in a Head Start classroom with TFA's first cohort of early childhood educators. I spent the next five years teaching pre-K in the city.
At camp, the culture we built in our "living groups" was so powerful that campers and counselors were often crying at the end of the week when it was time to say goodbye. We often said at those times that, while we felt like we were returning to the "real" world, in many ways camp was more real. Camp and the communities we built offered a glimpse at what a "beloved community" could be, in the way God intended us to dwell in the world.
I thought about this often when thinking about how to build a safe, supportive, and nurturing environment for all my students, regardless of what might be happening outside our classroom or school. Of course, I worked intentionally to have strong relationships with families, including home visits, and to incorporate students' home lives and cultures — through pictures of their families, favorite books, memories of neighborhood walks, and community reading materials. Just like at camp, I tried to make my classroom a microcosm of the real place we want the entire world to be — one where we are free to explore the "outside" world with fresh eyes and discover new information about ourselves we can translate at home. For my three- and four-year-old students, this might mean being more independent in their routines or exploring and describing an array of animals that live in the ocean.
One of my dear friends and co-counselors, Rob, and I were known for singing — all the time — with our youngest campers. Not just at the designated chapels or special "singing on the porch" activities, but literally walking from lunch to the pool . . . and everywhere. Years later, this became my persona as a teacher as well — but with a different purpose. I wanted to use all my teaching time with students in developmentally appropriate ways as strategically as possible — making every moment count toward the ambitious goals we were working toward together. While we rhymed our way through "Willaby Wallaby," counted down with understanding from 'Five Little Monkeys," or explored complicated new vocabulary like "Dreidel," this brought joy and perhaps again a bit of notoriety to our neighborhood walks — just as I had enjoyed at camp — but also rigorous mastery for our students on key skills to succeed in kindergarten and beyond.
I want all kids to have the chance to feel a part of a loving community as I did each summer at camp, just as I want all children to have an excellent start from their very first formal experience in early childhood through the rest of the school experience. I loved being a camp counselor, as you likely do, too. Now imagine you are getting to expand your impact to not just a few weeks, but to a year or more with a student and their family. As a teacher, you'll get build daily the "real" world we want all students to have. What could be better?

The body of a New York City mother of two who was killed in Turkey while on a solo vacation is expected to return to the U.S. Thursday.
Sarai Sierra's remains are expected to arrive Thursday, the New York Daily News reported. Turkish Airlines is providing the transportation for free.
A funeral home on Staten Island has offered free services, but the owner said it's unclear whether the family is accepting the offer.
Sierra's husband, Steven, went to Istanbul after she went missing, and he returned to New York on Wednesday to finalize arrangements.
After landing at Kennedy Airport, Steven Sierra went directly home to his sons on Staten Island, a relative told NBCNewYork.com
On Monday, Sierra's mother said the two sons, ages 9 and 11, were unaware of their mother's fate, and the family was waiting for Steven Sierra to return to inform the children about her death.
Turkish authorities concluded that 33-year-old Sarai Sierra was killed with a blow to the head. She had been in regular contact with her family on Staten Island during her three-week trip, which included a pre-planned excursion to Amsterdam and a stop in Munich before she returned to Istanbul.
She disappeared Jan. 21, and her body was found 12 days later near the remnants of the city's ancient walls. She was still wearing her jewelry, but her iPhone and iPad were missing.
Turkish police and the FBI are investigating her death. Prosecutors on Monday got a court order to take blood and DNA samples from 21 people questioned in the death, according to Turkish state media.
Her family says she was on her first trip abroad pursuing a newfound hobby of photography. She posted some of her work on the photo-sharing website Instagram, and her page there has attracted thousands of new visitors since news broke of her disappearance.
Her family subsequently set up a separate site where her photos were put up for sale. A post from someone who identified himself as her brother, David Jimenez, said any received funds will go to her children.
Steven Sierra told the Daily News earlier this week he was heartbroken after his wife's death.
"You have so many plans, so many dreams with the person you deeply love. You look forward to many years together and there are so many things you haven't fulfilled with that person, and now those won't be fulfilled," Steven Sierra said.

Eating meals at home is important for many reasons. If you're a regular reader of this blog, you'll know I'm an advocate of family dinners because of the connections they create between parents and kids and the quality of the meals that are served.
A study done at University of Illinois at Chicago backs up the belief that home cooked meals are healthier. According to CBS News, researchers discovered that "kids and teens consumed up to 300 calories more per trip to a fast-food or full-service restaurant compared to days they ate at home."
That's something to keep in mind when you're trying to decide if you want to take the time to make a meal at home or not. Does it mean you should never eat out? Of course not. I'm not a proponent of conventional fast-food, but I do enjoy going to our local, independent restaurants and taking my boys along, too. Many restaurants, even the very good ones, are known for their large servings, though, so here are some tips for making sure your kids aren't eating an abundance of calories simply because they're in a restaurant.
- Limit beverages with calories to one serving and then have them switch to water. The study found that "kids and adolescents were also shown to drink 'significantly higher' amounts of soda on days they ate from restaurants, especially adolescents." Many restaurants offer unlimited refills on soda, but that doesn't mean you have to accept them. After the first serving of soda, or milk or juice, have your child drink water.
- Skip the kids' menu. Kids menus are often exclusively burgers, chicken nuggets, mac and cheese and fries. When is the last time you saw healthy options on a kids' menu other than substituting the fries for applesauce? Help kids choose healthier choices from the adult menu and take home any uneaten portion for another meal.
- Decline the bread, tortilla chips or other complementary items that are delivered to the table before your order arrives. Tell your server when you're first approached that you don't want those items. It's too hard to resist filling up on those things before the food comes, and they can add 100 calories or more to a meal.
- Don't even look at the dessert menu. A full-size dessert can add a lot of calories to a meal. Instead of buying dessert at the restaurant, go home and have a small serving of ice cream if everyone is craving a little something sweet.
In addition to saving calories, these tips will help eliminate food waste, too.
Do you have any additional tips for taking kids to restaurants while not increasing their calorie intake for the day too drastically?

rcerf necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 114 diseños de 21 diseñadores freelance.
We quit our corporate jobs a few months ago and are working hard trying to change the way people think about going out to eat!
Both restaurants and restaurant-goers could benefit from an overhaul, a new way of thinking, that would allow for restaurants to fill vacant tables and to encourage eaters to experiment with new restaurants. There are financial barriers to eating out every night, but we believe we can assuage that burden while improving restaurants' upside.
We're working hard towards our goal of changing the way people decide where to eat; a nifty logo would be big for us and will be featured prominently on everything we produce!
1) Primarily young adults - tech savvy urbanites, groups of friends who enjoy eating out together, families - who frequent restaurants on a semi-regular basis (1-2 times a week). These are the people who enjoy trying new places but for whom price sometimes means the difference between going out and cooking at home.
2) Local middle-to high-end restaurant owners (think of the family-owned neighborhood Italian restaurant rather than a chain or super high-end, read: stuffy, establishment) open to social media and to new marketing approaches.
We are looking for a polished logo and favicon that speaks to the aspiring foodie. In our minds, we're envisioning something within the "less is more" school of thought (the typeface should be clear, simple and bold) . If you can think of a way to convey that the product involves restaurants/food and (instant) savings in a clever and non-gimmicky way, give it a shot, but we're looking for something that's crisp and not busy.
1. Use SecondServing as one word but distinguish them in some way - feel free to experiment (perhaps in color, font, or in the capitalization of the words)
2. Scales nicely and looks great on a web page and in print
3. We're not married to any particular color but again, we don't want it to be excessively busy (i.e., too many colors).
4. No cartoons, clip art, or stock photos please
Good luck and thank you for your help!
The files we will require are:
Print file format - .ai (CMYK)
Web file format - .jpg and layered .psd (RGB)

In Drawings of Scientists, seventh graders draw and describe their image of scientists before and after a visit to Fermilab.
|The scientist has big square-shaped glasses and a big geeky nose with brown hair and blue eyes. I see a scientist working in a lab with a white lab coat . . . holding a beaker filled with solutions only he knows. Scientists are very interesting people who can figure out things we don't even know exist.
|My picture of a scientist is completely different than what it used to be! The scientist I saw doesn¹t wear a lab coat. . . . The scientists used good vocabulary and spoke like they knew what they were talking about.

I have had it on for 2 weeks and get about 3 to 4 more mpg on the Highway. Also notice an increase in pickup when moving into passing gear. The Throttle Body Spacer makes a small whisteling sound , but not to loud. You cant hear it at all with the radio on. Some people like the sound it makes, but it really is not that noticable.
