Sundae Election for President Begins











Farrell’s Sundaes May Decide Presidential Race


Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) September 22, 2008

Customers at Farrell’s Ice Cream Parlor in Santa Clarita, a suburb of Sugar Daddy Los Angeles Santa Clarita, are casting their votes for President and Vice-President by selecting an ice cream sundae made of a combination of the favorite flavors of each political duo.

The Obama-Biden sundae is a combination of Senator Barack Obama’s mint ice cream combined with Senator Joe Biden’s favorites of chocolate and vanilla. There are mounds of hot fudge, whipped cream and it’s topped with two American Flags and a Farrell’s pig bank complete with red lips.

The McCain-Palin sundae includes Senator John McCain’s favorites of chocolate and vanilla along with Governor Palin’s choice of moosetracks which is vanilla ice cream with crushed peanut butter cups with a dash of caramel and hot fudge. It will be topped with whipped cream, two American flags and two candy lipsticks.

Michael Fleming, CEO of Parlour Enterprises, owners of Farrell’s said that each time a candidate’s sundae is purchased, it will count as a vote for that team. The votes are being tracked on a scoreboard installed in the ice cream parlor.

Fleming said he wanted the presidential ice cream sundae election to be fun, which is why each sundae is topped with either the Farrell’s pig bank with red lips, or tubes of candy lipstick. He also wanted to point out the importance that Americans cast their “real” votes in November.

“We knew the public would find some humor in the toppings and it’s been very well received,” said Paul Kramer, President, Parlour Enterprises. “Senator Obama’s comment about putting lipstick on a pig and Governor Palin’s joke about lipstick being the difference between an pit bull and hockey mom couldn’t be left alone,” he added.

To help kick off the ice cream election, campaign workers for Senators Obama and McCain will gather together at Farrell’s on Friday, September 26 at 4:00pm to sample and cast their votes with their sundae selections. The gathering of campaign offices will be held two hours prior to the first Presidential Debate between the candidates.

Farrell’s is donating from each sundae to the Red Cross Relief Fund in the name of each candidate. The sundae election will end November 3rd and the results posted on the FarrellsUSA.com website.

The Realty Executives real estate franchise office in Phoenix, Arizona recently celebrated a milestone with the company’s 10K Home Program.

Valencia, CA Plastic Surgeon Dr. Marc Lussier Focuses on Facial Rejuvenation as Sun-baked Summer Comes to a Close

Posted on August 2, 2011 by tlajtos

Valencia, CA Plastic Surgeon Dr. Marc Lussier Focuses on Facial Rejuvenation as Sun-baked Summer Comes to a Close











Town Center Plastic Surgery Valencia, CA

Valencia, CA (Vocus) September 28, 2010

According to the study conducted by the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) outlining cosmetic procedures performed in the United States, of the nearly 10 million surgical procedures performed in 2009, non-surgical procedures accounted for 85% of the total. Dr. Marc Lussier, a board-certified plastic surgeon in Valencia, CA, says he is preparing for the approaching winter season in light of these recent findings, as well as the typical seasonal increase in facial treatments, such as facial rejuvenation in Santa Clarita, as summer comes to a close.

At Town Center Plastic Surgery, Dr. Lussier offers a number of non-surgical facial rejuvenation procedures, including BOTOX® Cosmetic and the Liquid Facelift with dermal fillers. One non-surgical procedure in particular that Dr. Lussier says he expects to see an increase in as fall approaches is facial fat grafting in Valencia, which can be used as an alternative to other injectable fillers. By utilizing less-invasive fat grafting procedures that cost less and require minimal recovery time, Dr. Lussier says he can sculpt and re-contour his patients’ lips, cheeks, and face to enhance their youthful appearance.

While nonsurgical facial rejuvenation procedures are on the rise, procedures such as eyelid surgery, or blepharoplasty in Santa Clarita, still account for 15% of the nearly 10 million cosmetic procedures performed in 2009. With other surgical options available at Town Center Plastic Surgery, such as facelifts, brow lifts, and even neck lifts, Dr. Lussier says he offers a comprehensive variety of facial rejuvenation procedures to satisfy any patient’s needs. Regardless of the type of procedure his patients desire, Dr. Lussier says he customizes each procedure, whether surgical or not, with consideration for the ultimate safety of each patient, in pursuit of their facial rejuvenation expectations with the end of summer fast-approaching.

About Dr. Lussier

Dr. Marc Lussier earned his medical degree from the University of Minnesota School of Medicine. He completed his General Surgery Residency at the New York University Medical Center, and his Plastic Surgery Residency at Baylor College of Medicine. Dr. Lussier also completed a Hand Microsurgery Fellowship and a Post-Doctoral Fellowship at the University of Southern California. He is a Diplomate of the American Board of Plastic Surgery, and is a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, and the American Society for Surgery of the Hand, among many others.

Dr. Lussier and his Town Center Plastic Surgery practice can be found at 24510 Town Center Dr. Suite 180, in Valencia, CA 91355, and can be reached at (661) 260-3021 or http://www.lussiermd.com/
