SmartTOP Convertible Top Controller by Mods4cars Now Available for Audi R8 Spyder

Leave a comment

The aftermarket SmartTOP Convertible Top Controller module offered by Mods4cars is now available for the Audi R8 Spyder. It allows drivers to open or close the top from the factory remote key fob or from the center console switch, using one-touch convenience and while the car is moving. A custom designed wiring harness is included.

Las Vegas, NV (USA), November 12th, 2013 — Effective immediately, the SmartTOP Convertible Top Controller offered by aftermarket automotive electronics specialist Mods4cars is available for the Audi R8 Spyder. It adds convenient and intelligent functionality to the car. On one hand the convertible top can be opened using quick and automatic one-touch operation and while the car is in motion. It is no longer necessary to hold down the switch for the duration of the operation. SmartTOP owners just tap the switch briefly to activate the top.

On the other hand the module allows top operation from the original key fob remote. “Opening and closing the top from a distance by using the original key fob is a very popular feature.” says PR-Manager Sven Tornow. “Our customers can start opening the top while they are still approaching the car.” Sven Tornow continues. “This can come in handy to air out the car quickly in situations where direct sunlight has heated the inside up. Also it is possible to quickly close the top from afar at the first sign of rain.” All that is necessary is the original key fob remote. No physical or programming or changes are done to the original remote fobs.

Each module comes with a few bonus features such as an extended mode that allows top operation to continue while the engine is turned on or off. This allows drivers to start the top operation from the remote, get in and start driving, while the top finishes its cycle automatically.

Just like the well thought out functionality, installation has been designed to be as easy as possible. A custom designed plug-and-play wiring harness is part of the kit. This harness uses original OEM plugs to guarantee perfect and secure fit while simply connecting the module with the car electronics.

The SmartTOP for Audi R8 Spyder comes in the new, exclusive Mods4cars product enclosure. This custom fitted enclosure was designed with ergonomics and sleek looks in mind. It’s very slim and easily fits in any hollow space in the car. Two LEDs aid during the installation process by showing useful status information.

Configuration of the module is simplified by the standard USB port present on each module. It allows users to use a Windows or Mac support software to adjust personal settings and update the product firmware. “We continuously work on bringing new and improved functionality to existing modules. Updates are available online and free of charge, so even our existing customers always profit from updates.” says Sven Tornow. Programming can also be done in the car, without the need to remove the module.

The add-on kit for the Audi R8 Spyder is available for 249 Euros + tax. For other Audi models such as the convertible editions of A3, A4, A5 and TT roadster SmartTOP kits are available as well. All major brands are supported: Alfa, Audi, Bentley, BMW, Ferrari, Ford, Infiniti, Mazda, Mercedes-Benz, Mini, Nissan, Opel, Peugeot, Porsche, Renault, Volkswagen and Volvo.

About Mods4cars:
Mods4cars was founded in 2002 with the idea to add a highly demanded feature to the otherwise almost perfect Porsche Boxster: Comfort One-Touch roof operation while driving at slow speeds. The resulting product offered not only that, but also allowed quick and easy installation by just swapping out a relay box, thus leaving no traces and no permanent changes on the vehicle. The first SmartTOP roof controller was born.

The success of their first products in Germany and Europe prompted them in late 2004 to move operations to the USA, to be able to serve the American market as well as all other English speaking countries such as Australia, UK and South Africa from one central location. Their business has grown to a full-fledged international corporation with an office in Las Vegas and a full line of innovative products as well as distributors and installation partners all over the globe.

Being highly specialized in the development and distribution of aftermarket roof- and comfort controllers since 2002 allows them to offer an unsurpassed level of competence and product quality. Their main goal is optimization of each individual product to a maximum in compatibility, usability and intuitive operation. They put greatest effort into development and quality checks of all their products to achieve this goal and meet all expectations of their customers.

The extraordinary success of their products is also based on the great communication with their customers, which usually already starts for each new product during the development and prototyping phase.

Harlequins Enigma Urges Fans to Visit their New Beta Page

Harlequins Enigma Urges Fans to Visit their New Beta Page

harlequins enigma owner åge riisnes has been experiencing troubles with their bandvista page from time to time with slow widgets & widgets that wont work & similar. wix.com might prove a great alternative with up to date features.

Bergen, Norway, November 11, 2013 — harlequins enigma have a beta page up now at url: http://harlequinsenigma.wix.com/home – harlequins enigma urges fans to visit & hopefully adapt to an easier site. the site will be built further upon announces åge riisnes.

the harlequins enigma name is based upon the words expectation as in dolls, their origin, & the origin vs real people. åge once had a lighter with a girl on, showing a little of her face with a yellow rose & two identical females as guardians at each side of her. in the picture also a walking creature that looks like a walking mouse, pregnant. this is part of what harlequins enigma is about: expectation. they value hope for something better, as an eternal flame. There is also a different side of harlequins enigma which åge found as an alternative in the oxford dictionary, where harlqeuins enigma could be a demon rider. thinking of that he wonders if that might be an ancient being that might
be the boss of our universe.

fl studio has dominated åge`s musical world. he sort of treated it like protracker & it has for him a nice feel. i.e. pc keyboard instead of synth via midi, which makes him able to push the buttons without looking at the keys almost. at the same time his ear is sharp & piano roll in fl studio is like a nice game of tetris. his scales & experience got even sharper in 2009 as he went back to the amiga & composed tracks there. when he came back to fl studio again, he felt as he had become a better musician, though he`d prefer to be called a composer. he forgets easily & have become clumsy at times when he try to recall a line, so he don`t perform much. it is easier for him to do an impulse line of tetris instead composing.

åge riisnes sort of speak the language of tangerine dream & jarre & vangelis in the form of arpegiator based tracking & electronical music via the amiga. it is funny that he have made coops with all of them. he cannot explain in details, but after a psychiatry treatment in 1998, he got the impression that psychiatric hospitals are experts on the brain & that they talk much in telepathy on some sort of frequency. this became common as the years passed & when he did his comeback in 2008, he got visitors mentally/spiritually from many of the corners of our globe that led to coops with tangerine dream, jean michel jarre, klaus schulze, vangelis, kitaro, kate bush, dave weckl, chick corea, jan garbarek, atjazz & many others. thanx to them he is much better now then he would have been on his own. åge loves that the music is emotional, that sets you in a mood that can be happy, mellow, sad.. he also like the other parts of the emotions like adrenalin, though he haven`t felt adrenalin in years, he says he is like an empty bottle of fine wine that needs to be refilled. he also like the complex sides of various music genres like uptempo jazz that can
entertain you on pure professionalism.

åge`s main inspiration comes from a lot of bands & artists. when he was 15 he listened to king diamond & metallica. at age 10 ultravox, abba, kiss & joan jett were his favourites. at 27 to the 30`s he enjoyed jean michel jarre, depeche mode, garbage, saint etienne, jan garbarek, anja garbarek, briskeby, yello, enya, bertine zetlitz, royksopp, vangelis, kitaro. he found tangerine dream & klaus schulze a little later.

a video news release can be found on vimeo, youtube, tubewatcher.tv & daily motion. this video is called harlequins enigma & the taboo ghost, & discusses harlequins enigma`s current situation with sales & their partnership with tangerine dream, sade & others, all under a veil of taboo & the hated law of jante.

harlequins enigma`s 20 releases in 2013 will be continued on in 2014 with albums: td sound 2, featuring tangerine dream, klaus schulze, peter baumann & christopher franke – other non tangerine dream involved artists to appear on the album will also be: anja garbarek, katie leung & vangelis. a second album called wanderer will also see the light of day in 2014. this mixed style album will see some unreleased material & features an unreleased vangelis track from 2008 & also a track featuring lenny kravitz. there is also an ep planned with releases from discord. åge says the best track on the album “summer path” has a glitch in the bass department & will need a remaster. this to make åge
sleep at night.

There are no plans as of yet to shut down harlenia.com

Christina Moss Naturals All Natural Shampoo – Reveals Two Amazingly Simple Tricks To Healthier Living That You Can Do Right Now! What Price Are You Really Paying For Your Shampoo?

Leave a comment

Christina Moss Naturals has taken the gloves off and is blowing the whistle on the harmful chemicals in shampoo and other skin and hair care products and how they affect your health.

Los Angeles, California, November 13, 2013 – Christina Moss Naturals has taken the gloves off and is blowing the whistle on the harmful chemicals in shampoo and other skin and hair care products and how they affect your health. What price are you really paying for your shampoo? The answer is pretty shocking, and disturbing, as you can read in her latest blog, reprinted in its entirety here.

“WHAT PRICE ARE YOU REALLY PAYING FOR YOUR SHAMPOO?
“Are you paying with your health? How about with your life? According to some research, the answer to that question might very well be, yes! But is it really possible that the abundance of petrochemicals in our personal care products combine into some perfect storm of toxic carcinogens and DNA poison? Does SLS compromise the hair follicle to a point that amplifies absorption of cancer causing ingredients into the bloodstream?

“Certainly, the copious amount of petrochemicals in our hair and skin products is a very controversial subject, and it has been for a few years now. What we do know for sure is that more consumers are demanding better products. That means that buyers are aware of the problems connected with low level exposure to products containing dioxane, formaldehyde, MEA, DEA, TEA and more. Shampoo isn’t the only problem. There are baby wipes, baby oils, conditioners, soaps, moisturizers, sun screens, tanning products, deodorants, toothpastes, bubble baths, to name a few.

“It appears that the big manufacturers aren’t acknowledging the problems yet. Neither is the FDA. What to do then? Should we wait for them to act, or should we do something about it ourselves?

“The fact is, if we confront this head on, a very important question arises. If petrochemicals are considered toxic waste (which they are — there are strict laws and heavy fines around dumping them into the environment) then why on Earth are we smearing them onto our skin and hair?

“And how are we supposed to handle this?

“Fortunately, the answer is simple. We start with ourselves, and then we branch out to our families. Then it’s probably a good idea to talk about it to friends and to other people, too.

“And the message is simple:

“Step 1: Read labels

“Step 2: Only buy and use products with simple ingredients

“Avoid ingredients with long names that only a chemist would recognize. This is the simple answer. If you don’t recognize an ingredient, there’s a good chance it’s a petrochemical. Look for ingredients you recognize or can easily define.
“Be healthy. Simplify your products and avoid petrochemicals.

“Christina Moss”

Luxury Travel Just Launched A Half Day Trip To Cu Chi Tunnels by Waterway From Saigon

Leave a comment

Saigon’s based daytrippers can admire the perspective of the HCMC skyline as they cruise upstream on the new yacht.

Hanoi, Vietnam, November 13, 2013 – The new way to visit the tunnels is very convenient, taking just 1 hour and 15 minutes to get from Ho Chi Minh City, with NO traffic jams! Saigon’s based daytrippers can admire the perspective of the HCMC skyline as they cruise upstream on the new yacht.

“Many travelers go by road to Cu Chi, but you will take a half day excursion by waterway to the famous tunnels, which stretched for over 200 km and became legendary during the 1960s when they played a vital part in the American War.” Says Pham Ha, Founder and CEO of Luxury Travel Ltd.

“Your adventure starts from Bach Dang Pier, and you will go on a scenic tour to discover the natural beauty and Vietnamese lifestyle along the river bank. Binh Duong Province is on the right hand side and Ho Chi Minh City on the left as you begin cruising through the frontier and you willed be amazed that just a few minutes from Bustling Saigon, there lies a peaceful countryside and amazing life in the world of water.”

The boat will continue to Cu Chi (Ben Dinh) which now is a popular spot for both Vietnamese and foreign tourists. Take a short walk to the “iron triangle” of Cu Chi. Travelers will have plenty of time to explore the tunnel system and watch a video about them, which includes commentary from former soldiers to help travelers better understand the history of the area.

In their heyday, the tunnels were a functioning underground city, including numerous trap doors, specially constructed living areas, storage facilities, weapons factories, field hospitals, command centers & kitchens. After an hour and a half visiting the tunnels, travelers will go on boat back to Saigon where the tour ends.

Tour price start at 98 USD for the private party of 6 people, including private pick up and drop off services, entrances fees, water, fruits, boat trip and English speaking tour guide. Tour departs daily from 8 am or 1 pm for afternoon option. Discover more at www.luxurytravelvietnam.com

Scholarships Became the Major Contributors of Funding for College through the Recession

Leave a comment

Since 2010, parents have reduced their spending on college students significantly; instead grants, scholarships, and student borrowing have increased.

Chicago, IL, November 12, 2013 – Since 2010, parents have reduced their spending on college students significantly; instead grants, scholarships, and student borrowing have increased. The use of grants and scholarships has been the largest contributor since 2010.

According to Sallie Mae’s research of “How America Pays for College2013,” “Nearly two-thirds of families (65%) used grants and scholarships to pay for college this year, up from 61 percent in 2012 and up from only half of families five years ago.”

Moreover, scholarships are the only contributors of this year’s increase, since grants for college funding are actually decreasing this year. Numerous scholarship programs and the care of education from society and businesses are the reasons that scholarship awards can still make a huge difference to college funding during the recession.

OCA Chicago Scholarship, one of the scholarship programs in Chicago, has awarded 6 outstanding students this year.  The scholarship helped them achieve their higher education. At this year’s Gala at the Holiday Inn Chicago Mart Plaza, Anson Wu, VP and board member for OCA Chicago Chapter, introduced the scholarship program to the audience. He remarked, “OCA Chicago Scholarship started with a simple idea that is to help deserving Asian American students to get the education they deserve…” Anson oversaw the scholarship program for OCA for 2012 and 2013.

During the day Anson is the managing Creative Director at a digital creative agency in downtown Chicago, Fresh Design Studio, where he continues to pour creativity into digital assets for client’s brands. He cares about students’ education because he believes in giving back to the community and realizes that the students have such bright futures.

Scholarships are now the major contributors to students’ education. With the help of many different people like Anson, scholarships are the hope of education. Many students can still go to college and make their dream come true, even while the economy is down.
