Is Bmw Going to Buy Volvo? 0

Posted on November 30, 2010 by Jennib And Friends

Earlier this year, the auto industry saw the luxury brand Aston Martin being sold by its owner, the Ford Motor Company. The sale took place as Ford is seeking funding for its turn around plan. The past years have been tough for the Dearborn, Michigan-based car manufacturer as they incurred their biggest loss in their storied history.

After the sale of Aston Martin to a consortium of buyers led by David Richards of Team Prodrive, there were talks about whether Ford will sell another brand that it owns under the Premiere Automotive Group. While there were talks then that the Jaguar may be the next brand to be put on the auction block, Ford declined to comment. Recently though, a part of Ford’s Premier Automotive Group (PAG) is being reported to be taken over by German car company BMW.

Word has it in the auto industry that BMW is interested in buying the biggest brand under the PAG – Volvo. The Swedish brand may be suffering from reduced sales in the United States but it is still one of the most valuable brands that Ford owns. Talks about the possible takeover of BMW at Volvo came after BMW is reported to have requested for a complete breakdown of Volvo’s financial status from a European bank. The said inquiry has raised the issue that BMW may be interested in purchasing Volvo from the struggling company. Experts in the industry agreed that BMW may be looking to expand their offering to consumers.

The Hues to Choose

Glimpse out your window and what do you see?

If you’re in the part of the world that experiences seasonal changes, you no doubt spot falling leaves, barren trees and crisp, gray-blue skies. Allow those colors to inspire you as you begin to develop themes for your Thanksgiving scrapbook page ideas.

For instance, when purchasing your paper and cardstock, look for shades reminiscent of autumn. Gold. Rust. Brown. Stay away from bright yellow and spanking-new green for now – you’ll have plenty of opportunities to use those tints in the springtime.

Even your scrapbooking supplies can and should coordinate with the hues you choose. Markers of orange and deep red add an almost imperceptible autumnal cast upon the pages of your scrapbook albums. So do ribbons, stickers, and stamps of similar earthy tones.

Take a Walk on the Wild Side

Creative scrapbooking is often considered a sedentary activity, but not when you’re exploring interesting Thanksgiving scrapbook page ideas!

Don your favorite parka or sweatshirt and head out into the cool breeze of mid-afternoon for some pre-winter scavenging. Keep your eyes on the ground and in the trees for treasures to add to your November album.

Pretty leaves, delicate flowers, vibrant feathers, and even very small seeds and pebbles can add flavor and texture to the Thanksgiving pages in your scrapbook. Of course, don’t forget that anything alive may need to be specially preserved before inclusion in your
