Mercedes CLC

Najinteresantniji novitet na Mercedesovom štandu je bio model „CLC“, sportska i mladalačka verzija „C-klase“

JEDAN od najinteresantnijih modela koje je ove godine izložio Mercedes je svakako kupe, model „CLC”. Izmene u odnosu na prethodnika su očigledne, a najveće iznenađenje je oblik zadnjeg dela karoserije. Kod prethodnog modela „rep” vozila je bio neobično dizajniran i izdignut, što je odbijalo većinu tradicionalnih zaljubljenika u modele iz štutgartske fabrike. Na novom „CLC-u” je ovaj propust ispravljen, a celu karoseriju odlikuju izuzetno skladne linije, kakve doliče jednom Mercedesu. Brojne izmene se kriju i ispod „lima“, jer u odnosu na prethodni model izmenjeno je ukupno 1.100 komponenti. Za pogon su zaduženi usavršeni benzinski i CDI dizel motori, s tim da je prosečna potrošnja svih modela smanjena za oko 10 procenata.

German Shepherd

German Shepherd Dog Breed Standard

General Appearance
The first impression of a good German Shepherd Dog is that of a strong, agile, well muscled animal, alert and full of life. It is well balanced, with harmonious development of the forequarter and hindquarter. The dog is longer than tall, deep-bodied, and presents an outline of smooth curves rather than angles. It looks substantial and not spindly, giving the impression, both at rest and in motion, of muscular fitness and nimbleness without any look of clumsiness or soft living. The ideal dog is stamped with a look of quality and nobility–difficult to define, but unmistakable when present. Secondary sex characteristics are strongly marked, and every animal gives a definite impression of masculinity or femininity, according to its sex.

Temperament
The breed has a distinct personality marked by direct and fearless, but not hostile, expression, self-confidence and a certain aloofness that does not lend itself to immediate and indiscriminate friendships. The dog must be approachable, quietly standing its ground and showing confidence and willingness to meet overtures without itself making them. It is poised, but when the occasion demands, eager and alert; both fit and willing to serve in its capacity as companion, watchdog, blind leader, herding dog, or guardian, whichever the circumstances may demand. The dog must not be timid, shrinking behind its master or handler; it should not be nervous, looking about or upward with anxious expression or showing nervous reactions, such as tucking of tail, to strange sounds or sights. Lack of confidence under any surroundings is not typical of good character. Any of the above deficiencies in character which indicate shyness must be penalized as very serious faults and any dog exhibiting pronounced indications of these must be excused from the ring. It must be possible for the judge to observe the teeth and to determine that both testicles are descended. Any dog that attempts to bite the judge must be disqualified. The ideal dog is a working animal with an incorruptible character combined with body and gait suitable for the arduous work that constitutes its primary purpose.
