Cedric Naudon is a wealthy French entrepreneur with a penchant for fine food. Nothing notable there— French foodies are a dime a dozen. But unlike most those other foodies, Naudon owns half of a neighborhood in Paris, and his plans for the area would make anyone’s mouth water.
Naudon’s plan for the neighborhood, as featured in The New York Times, is to turn the area into an epicurean village called La Jeune Rue (Young Street).
Developed with the help of an international team of designers, the plans include a butchery, a cheesemonger, an organic bakery, an oyster bar, a fishmonger, ethnic restaurants, and a clique of neighborhood mainstays. The butchery will include a library to allow patrons to read all about the cuts on offer. Continue reading “Entrepreneur Develops Food-Based Neighborhood”

19 visual social media secrets from the pros
1. “Your story can be significantly more powerful if you’re not the only one telling it. Curate your fans imagery about your brand with your own to tell stories that combine multiple perspectives with authenticity.” – Apu Gupta, CEO Curalate @apugupta
Well, in the connected world we are a part of the audience and customers can verify everything very easy so authenticity is an important factor.
2. “Be authentic and provide value. Create content that educates your users – they will become loyal followers and genuinely engage with your content.” Melanie Perkins, CEO Canva @melaniecanva
In social media, from 10 messages posted only one, maximum two (here is the exception) can be sales related. All the others has to be valuable content for the audience to educate, engage and entertain whenever possible.
3. “Visually tasty quotes and messages are a great alternative to photos. They’re a wonderful way to engage and inspire your audience.” Ben Wong Founder Wordswag & Videohance @wordswagapp
The website epicbeachlife.com just published a list with the top 11 beaches in America. They say that there you can meet the most attractive people. Let’s put them in my travel list. With 88,633 miles of coastline, the United States is home to plenty of spots to enjoy the waves and admire the scenery. For the sexiest beaches with the most attractive people, look no further than these:
1. South Beach, Florida
Florida is full of sexy beach-goers, but this is where most of them flock. Topless tanning is “illegal”, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen…
2. Ka’anapali, Hawaii
This Maui beach is notable for its bronzed beachgoers strolling in and out of gentle waves. Hula dancers also dance sensually in the evening amid fiery torches.
Brrr, the newest viral trend has celebrities including Justin Timberlake, Mark Zuckerberg and Martha Stewart dumping buckets of freezing-cold water over themselves. All in the name of charity.
Tipping buckets of chilled water over their heads, anyone who takes part in the challenge then gets the opportunity to nominate a further three people to drench themselves within the next 24 hours.
Failing to perform the stunt in the allotted time means giving a donation to charity.
