Ashville's Revival of Historic Architecture

Ashville, North Carolina may be best known for its surrounding mountains which make up some of the East's tallest and most majestic peaks, but this city has also some striking buildings that have art deco architecture in the downtown historic district besides Miami.
The most impressive and readily recognizable is the Grove Arcade, which occupies a full city block on Page Avenue. The arcade is designed by Edwin Wiley Grove in 1929 as a public market and thrived until World War II. It now houses an array of galleries which are locally owned, shops, restaurants and businesses.

Other Art Deco buildings are the Ashville's city hall and the First Baptist Church, both designed by Douglas Ellington who popularized the art deco style after studying in Paris.

Situated on the busy Pack Square is the center of Ashville's recent renewal called Pack Place. It houses the Ashville Art Museum, Colburn Earth Science Museum, The Health Adventure Children's Museum and Diana Wortham Theatre, which gives visitors the chance to see 20th-21st century art, hands-on exploration witht he human body and mind, and can even enjoy performances by professional art groups.

You can explore the downtown district's architecture on the Ashville Urban Trail by visiting the Pack Place to get some maps, or you can drop by at Ashville Visitor Center or Ashville Art Council for a walking tour exploring 30 sculptures depicting the city's history.
Among tour highlights is the Thomas Wolfe Memorial on Market Street.

One block after the Broadway are antique galleries, bookstores and restaurants serving everything from sushi to pastries. There is also the Mast General Store where shoppers can splurge on barrel candy and shop for outdoor clothing in a 1940s general store setting.

Eyeglasses At Cheaper Prices

Today's economy has been chaotic. Many consumable items and basic commodities that are considered important in our daily living are almost doubling in prices. Health insurances, medical and hospital bills are soaring up high, and guess who suffers the most? People who earn meager incomes...those that only live one day at a time with a few bucks of earnings in a day!

And when we talk about health, specifically eye care, it is a sad fact that many people have suffered from bad eye illnesses just because they ignore eye check ups, for the reason that they can't even afford to buy a prescription eye glasses.

Truly, Zenni Optical have gone a long way helping many people get their discount eyeglasses. It is a perfect helper in today's difficult financial struggle.

I was able to watch a CNN video featuring Clark Howard, an HLN money expert who wrote a book titled "Living Large in Lean Times." This would actually be an interesting book to buy. (Where can I buy this?)
In the video, Zenni Optical was featured as one of the many examples from his book when it comes to saving by buying your eyeglasses from them.
I must agree, Mr. Howard really loves Zenni Optical. As an evidence, he is wearing his precription eyeglasses from Zenni Optical.

Table Lightings

I still remember several years ago when I was still working in the Philippines, I used to dream simple things that I wish I could have. I grew up in a simple life living in a rural area.

Every night, I would always wish I can have a small table lamp because I couldn't sleep in my room with either a bright light or no lights at all. Those modern dim lights that they use today are not yet that many on the stores during those years, lol!
It so happened, that I was working with a company that sells table lamps. Perhaps, God heard my whispers of prayer, and I was given a table lamp by my boss as an award when I was chosen as "employee of the month" ;). Call it really God's "shower of blessing" because my boss didn't have any idea what I really wanted. The best thing is that it was much more better than the simple lamp model I was aiming to have. God is really good all the time!

Today, there are lots and tons of modern table lamps that are in store. With the huge collections of various brands and models, your choice seems to be endless.
Consider Table Lamps Sale online as worth checking if you need table lamps, big or small, simple or fancy.

Tips To Protect Yourself and Your Car

Don't just leave your car title in th vehicle. If a car thief is pulled over, he could still get away from the police using the papers. If multiple drivers use the car, consider hiding the title in a secret location in the car that only the owners know.

Be cautious at night, and park in a well-lit area, as much as possible.

Have your car's vehicle identification number (VIN) etched on each of the windows. This way, thieves don't want to go to the expense of replacing the glass, and in some states, you could get a discount on your auto insurance.

Don't leave any personal items that can be enticing to a curious thief. Even an empty shopping bag can attract attention for a thief to break in.

if confronted by a car jacker, don't resist. Cars can be replaced; you can't!

Security & Networking Systems

CCTV security camera nowadays is one essential component in establishing our company's security. It is one small equipment yet powerful in its function, the main reason why it is recommended in every business establishments such as banks, restaurants, schools, even in private homes and public places.
It is one of the popular gadgets being used today to even track crimes. So, just imagine if you have a business that doesn't have any security camera, it's like putting it into a big hole full of crocs and flesh-eating piranhas!

Data cabling is another thing to consider when you have a business that needs one. It is one way of building and strengthening your own network and security infrastructure.
Network cabling of course is another type of security management that always has a vital function that goes together with your data management.

And so when it comes to choosing an installer for your cabling and wiring solutions, you have to be sure you will be working with the experts, tested and proven when it comes to experience and expertise and of course it should be a group or company that is worth trusting.
Rolled as one, you have to hire one that knows what they are doing, and knows how to find solutions for any problems that might occur, don't you think?

It's Harley Davidson's Season

Every summer, I would usually enjoy driving on the road with hubby particularly when we are on a trip to visit some places. It is also the perfect season for Harley motorcycles on the road!

I woul always see them in groups driving around the neighborhood, and sometimes there are big events being done in our local hotels here. It is so easy to identify them just by the sound of their motorcycles, their uniforms, and the motorcycles where you can really see those bulky and sometimes shiny motorcycles wherein you can really say they are uniquely made! Oh! and that unique loud sound they make, you'll know they are around ;).
I happened to see one store that are having harleys for sale, and it's so surprising that the store gets crowded! It was like...wow! both men and women seem to be going crazy about it. I am not fond of big motorcycles, but they look interesting.
It is no longer unusual to see even women driving these motorcycles as well. Now, that is even more interesting to glance at, lol!
If a women would be driving a Harley Davidson, you will see them at the store taking some curious looks at the Harley davidson accessories! It's kinda cool stepping inside one of those stores where you can see many stuff like accessories and decorations. The clothings and blazers are also interesting. They would usually match it with their tattoos, LOL!

Tips That Help Extend Your Car's Life

Modern cars require relatively little routine service as long as you follow maintenance instructions both from car experts and in your owner's manual.
The following are some other tips to help you extend the life of your car.

Avoid driving over potholes which can cause suspension and tire damage. Shifting from reverse to a forward gear while car is moving can harm the transmission, while jackrabbit starts stress the engine, transmission and differential.
The bottom line? Drive smartly!

Exercise regularly everything on your vehicle such as using the parking brake occasionally to keep it adjusted; Engage your car's 4-wheel drive occasionally if you rarely use anything but 2-wheel drive.

Synthetic oils are superior lubricants which are more costly than petroleum-based oils but they can extend engine life. It's best to start using synthetic oil while the car's engine is still young.
Glance under your car from time to time. If there are fluid leaking on the ground, note the color of any drips and report them to your car mechanic. Report any weird squeaks and clunks in a timely manner as well.

Bond with a mechanic you can trust, and follow his/her advice.

You'll feel better hanging on to your car longer if it looks good. In addition to regular washing and waxing, or even better, professional detailing - your car, fix any inevitable dings and chipped glass before your car starts looking like a heap.
Most glass damage is easily repairable and small dings can be inexpensively fixed with paintless dent removal techniques.
