Zero-emissions Mercedes-Benz F-CELL car a hit with green celebrities Emitting nothing but water vapor as it cruises around the city on hydrogen power rather than fossil fuels, it's no surprise that Mercedes-Benz' new B-Class F-CELL vehicle has attracted the attention of eco-conscious celebrities. One of those green celebrities is actress Diane Kruger, known for her recent performance as Marie Antoinette in the film "Farewell, My Queen." Kruger has been spotted driving her F-CELL around the Los Angeles area. "I'm excited to be driving the F-CELL. The vehicle hit the streets of Southern California in a limited release in May, and the car will be available to the rest of the country by the end of the year.

Однако в данном случае речь шла уже не о санкциях против, допустим, зимбабвийского диктатора Роберта Мугабе (Москва и Пекин дружно ветировали этот проект в 2008 году), а о самой России. Ситуация осложняется тем, что Китай имеет собственные проблемы с Тайванем. И, наконец, буквально на днях китайский лидер провел встречу с Бараком Обамой.

Some of the advice also seems to have come straight out of the 1960s-set TV show Mad Men (“When in doubt, always kiss the girl”, “Hookers aren’t cool, but remember, the free ones are a lot more expensive.” ) We’ve also omitted some of the more overtly US-centric tips such as the best “rest rooms” in New York. Nevertheless, there are still a few interesting nuggets below that are probably worth adopting into your lifestyle.
