Mini to show off new GP II next month

By Cornelius Nunev

BMW's subsidiary, Mini John Cooper Works, announced Wed that it will unveil a new hard-top John Cooper Works GP II next Month in France. The Cooper GP II is a follow-up to the much-sought-after 2006 Mini Cooper GP, which was created in a limited number.

Arriving in France in a month

The 2006 Mini Cooper GP was not very comfortable, and only 415 of them showed up in the States. There were only 2,000 made total.

From May 11 to May 11, the Mini United Festival will take place in La Castellet, France. This is where the Mini GP II will debut

BMW's M section CEO Dr. Kay Segler publicized this on Wed at a meeting about the New York Auto show. The New York Auto Show will open on April 5.

Highest-performing Mini ever

The Mini Series 1 for the car maker ended with production of the Mini Cooper GP. Although there were not a lot produced and they cost $30,000 to get, all of the automobiles sold. The car weighed a lot less than other automobiles without a back seat, which meant it had great performance with 215 horses.

In the six years between 2006 and now, the Mini Cooper GP has lost a ton of value, although may collectors are still interested in it.

Looking at the details

The exact specifics about the Mini Cooper GP II remain deliberately vague, but Mini hinted that the model will feature a "particularly high-performance turbo engine, racing-oriented suspension technology and exclusive, aerodynamically optimized body components."

Even though it is a well-kept secret, it will most likely have more than 208 horsepower, experts expect. It will "have a turbocharged 1.6-liter four-cylinder motor, with approximately 220 horsepower," according to World Car Fans.

The brand new Mini Cooper GP II may have better performance than the first car if it is lighter than the first, according to Car and Driver. The GP II will come and go just like the GP did with only a short, limited run.

A ten year reunion

The Mini will have a special edition available in red, white or blue that will celebrate the 10 years in the U.S., Mini announced at the New York Auto Show.

Fitting Good Nutrition Into Your Life

By Jonas Varig

Most people would love to improve their diet. However, when it comes to improving nutrition, it can be overwhelming. Thankfully, you don't have to drastically change your diet immediately. This article lists some easy tips on how to improve your nutrition in small and effective ways.

Determine your daily caloric needs. You can quickly come up with a healthy eating plan once you know how many calories are necessary. When you know how many calories your body needs to consume, you can create a healthy weight loss plan.

Support your local farmers by eating things that they grow. Read the labels on foods you buy and search for phrases like "locally grown" in order to buy foods produced by local farmers. This ensures that there is enough demand for their products to make growing them worthwhile. Locally grown foods offer a better flavor and less chance of harmful pesticides.

Understanding the nutritional information on food labels is very important. Fat-free does not mean healthy. Likewise, foods that are low in carbohydrates or sugars are not necessarily low in fat and calories. Take the time to read the nutrition labels on all of your food packages.

You need plenty of fiber in your diet every day. There are plenty of foods that provide you with enough fiber you need in a given day such as whole-grain pastas, cereal, breads, and fruits and vegetables. If you do not consume 20 to 25 grams of fiber a day, be sure to take a supplement. There are many ways to take fiber supplements. You can find these supplements in powders, capsules and tablets.

Find a registered dietitian or talk to a medical practitioner if you do not know much about proper nutrition. Your primary care physician is a great person to ask about improving your nutrition.

You may have committed yourself to your new weight loss plan and fitness routine. But, no matter how dedicated you are, it is always possible to have a setback. Don't let small slips like these put your off your entire routine. Do not focus on past failures; just continue with your diet plan. Get back up and take the bull by the horns.

When you mix up food and fun in the kitchen, teaching good nutrition can be quite easy! Give your child cookie cutters to cut the healthy food into fun shapes. Since they helped make it, they might be more likely to eat it. A child-friendly trail mix is easily concocted by mixing their favorite low-sugar cereal with some dried fruit and nuts.

Before using supplements, make sure that you clarify how much you should take and whether you can use individual supplements in conjunction with others. Vitamins and minerals work hand in hand with one another, so taking huge doses of one type of vitamin can cause imbalances to happen. Be especially wary of high-dosage vitamin B supplements. A physician will advise you if you need to take anything more than a single multivitamin tablet each day.

Food needs to taste good to be appealing to eat. Foods should, however, also be good for you. It is never too late to start eating healthier foods, and this article can help you get on the right track.
