Ethiopian fare is traditionally eaten with injera, a crêpe-like bread that, like a soup ladle carved out of bouillon cubes, acts as an edible scooping utensil.</p><h3>Groupon Says</h3><p>The Groupon Guide to: Office Icebreakers</p><p>Is lack of self-confidence contagious? </p><p><a href="http://www.groupon.com/deals/nile-ethiopian-restaurant">Read more...</a></p><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?a=yPX4SAGx9sw:62EJQAuvScI:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?a=yPX4SAGx9sw:62EJQAuvScI:qj6IDK7rITs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?d=qj6IDK7rITs" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?a=yPX4SAGx9sw:62EJQAuvScI:KwTdNBX3Jqk"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?i=yPX4SAGx9sw:62EJQAuvScI:KwTdNBX3Jqk" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?a=yPX4SAGx9sw:62EJQAuvScI:gIN9vFwOqvQ"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?i=yPX4SAGx9sw:62EJQAuvScI:gIN9vFwOqvQ" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/grouponwashington-dc/~4/yPX4SAGx9sw" height="1" width="1"/> http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/grouponwashington-dc/~3/yPX4SAGx9sw/nile-ethiopian-restaurant http://groupon.com/washington-dc/deals/nile-ethiopian-restaurant Wed, 08 Feb 2012 05:01:14 +0000 http://groupon.com/washington-dc/deals/nile-ethiopian-restaurant <img align="right" alt="60-Minute Swedish or Deep-Tissue Massage or 90-Minute Swedish Massage from natUreal health &amp; wellness (Up to 59% Off)" src="http://www.groupon.com/images/site_images/1993/1570/natUreal-health-and-wellness.jpg" width="120" /><p>Muscles, like the tails of sleeping cats or levers labeled “drain ocean,” were never meant to be pulled.

Therapists coax away the kinks in coiled sinews during the 60- or 90-minute Swedish massage. Long, gliding strokes evict tensions lodged in muscles across the body with help from soothing lotions, warm oils, and nonstick cooking sprays plucked from kitchen cabinets. The intense pressures and methodical kneading of the deep-tissue massage loosen clots of stress in specific areas of the back and upper body. This goal-oriented massage can be used in conjunction with Swedish techniques to achieve an optimum balance between relaxation and lasting pain relief. In addition to enhancing overall wellness and easing muscle trauma, massage therapy may help treat headaches and aid in weight-loss efforts.</p><h3>Groupon Says</h3><p>The Groupon Guide to: Office Icebreakers</p><p>Is lack of self-confidence contagious? </p><p><a href="http://www.groupon.com/deals/natureal-health-and-wellness">Read more...</a></p><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?a=jrXnxVvlpUo:vnt0pc-D7Yo:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?a=jrXnxVvlpUo:vnt0pc-D7Yo:qj6IDK7rITs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?d=qj6IDK7rITs" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?a=jrXnxVvlpUo:vnt0pc-D7Yo:KwTdNBX3Jqk"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?i=jrXnxVvlpUo:vnt0pc-D7Yo:KwTdNBX3Jqk" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?a=jrXnxVvlpUo:vnt0pc-D7Yo:gIN9vFwOqvQ"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?i=jrXnxVvlpUo:vnt0pc-D7Yo:gIN9vFwOqvQ" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/grouponwashington-dc/~4/jrXnxVvlpUo" height="1" width="1"/> http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/grouponwashington-dc/~3/jrXnxVvlpUo/natureal-health-and-wellness http://groupon.com/washington-dc/deals/natureal-health-and-wellness Wed, 08 Feb 2012 05:01:12 +0000 http://groupon.com/washington-dc/deals/natureal-health-and-wellness <img align="right" alt="11-Day Guided African Safari with Airfare, Accommodations, and Meals from Safari Ventures" src="http://www.groupon.com/images/site_images/1992/0125/Safari-Ventures_11_wide-jpg.jpg" width="120" /><h4>Tanzania: Serengeti Plains Rife with Wildebeests, Lions, Elephants, and Giraffes</h4> <p>Each year, a great wildebeest migration takes place in East Africa's vast plains, as millions of ungulates trek more than 600 miles in search of fresh grass. Thomson's gazelles, zebras, and other prey animals join with the wildebeests en masse, and predatory lions, hyenas, and jackals follow the herd as a promising food supply. Safari Ventures, named one of the World's Best Adventure Travel Companies by <em>National Geographic</em> in 2009, sends tour groups in four-by-four vehicles on a circular trek across the Serengeti plains in search of migrating wildebeests and other big game. </p> <p>The <a href="http://gr.pn/wuuH8d">itinerary</a> includes the following and is available on select dates:</p> <p><strong>Days 1–2:</strong> Flights on Ethiopian Airlines depart from Washington-Dulles International Airport (IAD) and arrive at Tanzania's Kilimanjaro International Airport (JRO) the next day (after a stopover in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia). Upon arrival, visitors are transferred to the nearby Kia Lodge for an overnight stay. Mount Kilimanjaro, the tallest mountain in Africa at more than 19,000 feet, is visible in the distance on a clear day. </p> <p><strong>Days 3–4:</strong> After breakfast, tour groups head to <a href="http://gr.pn/xlDNKJ">Lake Manyara National Park</a> for the first of many game drives. There, zebras and buffalo rove the plains, and more than 400 bird species fly above. Blue monkeys, bushbucks, mongooses, and flamingos also comprise the area's native population. Visitors retreat for the night to Migunga Tented Camp. </p> <p><strong>Days 5–7:</strong> After breakfast, tour groups enter <a href="http://gr.pn/wwk7Is">Serengeti National Park</a>, a UNESCO World Heritage Site they'll explore for the next three days. On the way to Serengeti, the caravan stops at a Masai village to learn about the local tribe's culture and heritage. Most of the time in the park is spent on game drives, searching for the wildebeest, elephants, giraffes, lions, and jackals. Guests stay overnight in Ikoma Tented Camp.</p> <p><strong>Days 8–9:</strong> After a breakfast and one last morning game drive in Serengeti National Park, the safari heads toward the <a href="http://gr.pn/z64JbN">Ngorongoro Crater</a>. Along the way, the tour makes a pit stop in Olduvai Gorge, an archaeological site where paleontologists discovered fossils that date back nearly two million years. Within the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, safari drivers seek out the big five animals: lions, elephants, NFL linebackers, leopards, and rhinoceros. Nightly accommodations are at Crater Forest Lodge. </p> <p><strong>Days 10–11:</strong> On the final leg of the safari, the caravan makes the return trip, passing through the town of Mto wa Mbu. Here, safari-goers can stretch their legs and browse local markets. Later that evening, guests take a homeward-bound flight on Ethiopian Airlines from Kilimanjaro International Airport (JRO). </p> <p>View the <a href="http://gr.pn/y8wpCL">FAQ page</a> for more information. Pre-trip excursions to Mount Kilimanjaro and the beaches of Zanzibar are also available for an additional fee.</p><h3>Groupon Says</h3><p></p><p><a href="http://www.groupon.com/deals/ga-m-safari-ventures">Read more...</a></p><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?a=4i_gfNd7KjM:hebc8Q2TnqM:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?a=4i_gfNd7KjM:hebc8Q2TnqM:qj6IDK7rITs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?d=qj6IDK7rITs" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?a=4i_gfNd7KjM:hebc8Q2TnqM:KwTdNBX3Jqk"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?i=4i_gfNd7KjM:hebc8Q2TnqM:KwTdNBX3Jqk" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?a=4i_gfNd7KjM:hebc8Q2TnqM:gIN9vFwOqvQ"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?i=4i_gfNd7KjM:hebc8Q2TnqM:gIN9vFwOqvQ" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/grouponwashington-dc/~4/4i_gfNd7KjM" height="1" width="1"/> http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/grouponwashington-dc/~3/4i_gfNd7KjM/ga-m-safari-ventures http://groupon.com/washington-dc/deals/ga-m-safari-ventures Tue, 07 Feb 2012 05:01:17 +0000 http://groupon.com/washington-dc/deals/ga-m-safari-ventures <img align="right" alt="Italian Fare for Dinner or Lunch at Potenza Trattoria (Half Off)" src="http://www.groupon.com/images/site_images/1986/7605/Potenza.jpg" width="120" /><p>A historic building's atmosphere changes aspects of dining: chandeliers warmly illuminate meals and ghosts wander from table to table offering to grind pepper on people's salads.

Though English is now South Africa's most widely spoken language, the government recognizes 11 official languages, and there are scores of additional dialects linked to sub-Saharan Africa, Europe, and Asia. In the course of a short drive, one might pass through wildly disparate landscapes reminiscent of Basque wine country, the Australian outback, and the Rocky Mountains. Great white sharks stalk prey near its shores and giraffes graze on its savannas. Nowhere is South Africa's diversity more discernible than in the region surrounding Cape Town, the setting for this eight-night adventure. </p> <p><strong>Day 1–4: The Bay Hotel – Camps Bay</strong><p> Camps Bay overlooks the Atlantic, about 20 minutes from Cape Town's city center, on the other side of Table Mountain. This posh enclave suggestive of Malibu centers on a beachfront promenade lined with cafés, restaurants, and nightclubs. The <a href="http://www.thebay.co.za/">Bay Hotel</a> sits directly on the main drag. Four swimming pools and a sprawling wood deck offer up top-notch tanning grounds and an ideal spot for sighting celebrities on the streets and beaches below. From the <a href="http://bit.ly/vKYLpl">classic rooms’</a> patios, views of the ocean and Lion's Head Mountain rival any vistas on the peninsula.</p> <p><strong>Day 5–6: Aquila Private Game Reserve</strong><p> <a href="http://www.aquilasafari.com/">Aquila Private Game Reserve</a>, about two hours from Cape town, encompasses 7 square miles of Southern Karoo Highlands covered with dramatic peaks, valleys, and a menagerie of big game. Guests will get to view lions, elephants, giraffes, and many more species on game drives as well as on horseback and four-by-four safaris. The <a href="http://bit.ly/u7qAWp">standard luxury chalets</a> reflect the landscape and local culture with thatched roofs, wood interiors, and natural stone accents. Chalets stand close to the main house, which incorporates two large swimming pools, a cigar bar and lounge, and a buffet-style dining area, where included meals are served. </p> <p><strong>Day 7–8: Spier Hotel</strong><p> <a href="http://www.spier.co.za/">Spier Hotel</a> sits in the heart of Stellenbosch, South Africa's famed wine region just outside Cape Town. Spier Winery produces an array of award-winning wines, including chardonnay, shiraz, and pinotage, South Africa's signature varietal. The hotel and winery hold sustainability in high regard, as is illustrated by the recycled-wood furniture in the tasting room and a magnificent chandelier made from 334 recycled Spier wine bottles. Contemporary South African art can hangs from the walls in the <a href="http://bit.ly/rOLLSR">standard rooms</a> and the farm-to-table fine-dining restaurant, <a href="http://gr.pn/vpN5YN">moyo at Spier</a>.

Hide behind the fourth wall with today’s GrouponLive deal to see <a href="http://www.washingtonshakespeare.com/">WSC Avant Bard's</a> production of <a href="http://wscavantbard.org/season/les-justes/"><em>Les Justes (The Just Ones)</em></a> at <a href="http://gr.pn/whh6zR">Artisphere's Black Box Theatre</a> in Arlington.

Written by French existentialist Albert Camus, <em>Les Justes (The Just Ones)</em> sheds light on the machinations and crises of consciences felt by a terrorist group of Russian revolutionaries as they plot the death of a grand duke and determine how to split a check five ways at dinner. WSC Avant Bard veteran Rahaleh Nassri presents a fresh translation of the play and company member Jay Hardee directs, and the Artisphere's Black Box Theatre creates an intimate space for actors to forge an emotional bond with show-goers, deepening the betrayal when fans find them acting for other audiences. </p> <p>Domaso Trattoria Moderna kicks off mornings with a <a href="http://gr.pn/yD7gHj">menu</a> served from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. Yogurt parfait appetizers mix fruit and granola into a satisfyingly crunchy dish, and entrees pack a tasty punch that pummels tongues like speed bags, such as the crab-cake sandwich drizzled with chipotle aioli and served on a crisp bed of arugula. After eating, parents can drop off young'uns for the Acting Up workshop, designed to inculcate kids from kindergarten through fifth grade with actorly virtues. Classes have miniature thespians acting out a story of their own while they learn to use vocalization and physical movement to heighten dramatic tension and make strangers feel uncomfortable enough to give up their bus seats.</p><h3>Groupon Says</h3><p>The Groupon Guide to: Office Icebreakers</p><p>Is lack of self-confidence contagious? </p><p><a href="http://www.groupon.com/deals/gl-les-hystes-wsc">Read more...</a></p><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?a=wGWtLDE1qOM:E3ihYiv8Mzw:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?a=wGWtLDE1qOM:E3ihYiv8Mzw:qj6IDK7rITs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?d=qj6IDK7rITs" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?a=wGWtLDE1qOM:E3ihYiv8Mzw:KwTdNBX3Jqk"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?i=wGWtLDE1qOM:E3ihYiv8Mzw:KwTdNBX3Jqk" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?a=wGWtLDE1qOM:E3ihYiv8Mzw:gIN9vFwOqvQ"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?i=wGWtLDE1qOM:E3ihYiv8Mzw:gIN9vFwOqvQ" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/grouponwashington-dc/~4/wGWtLDE1qOM" height="1" width="1"/> http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/grouponwashington-dc/~3/wGWtLDE1qOM/gl-les-hystes-wsc http://groupon.com/washington-dc/deals/gl-les-hystes-wsc Wed, 08 Feb 2012 05:01:57 +0000 http://groupon.com/washington-dc/deals/gl-les-hystes-wsc <img align="right" alt="$29 for 1,000 4&quot;x6&quot; Photos Converted to DVD with Return Shipping Included from ScanMyPhotos.com ($99.45 Value)" src="http://www.groupon.com/images/site_images/1992/6273/ScanMyPhotos-6.jpg" width="120" /><p>If technological trends persist, then our children's grandchildren will one day have to explain to their grandchildren that photos were once flat, unscented, and not the property of Lord Zortro.

The herbal blend coaxes toxins out of the body's cells and shuffles them into the wood-burning stoves of the lymphatic system. The physique-sculpting wrap also aims to help patrons to drop pounds in problem areas by forcing fat lipids to break up with cell walls. The decrease in fatty tissues results in less-noticeable cellulite and dimpled areas, and, postherbal wrap, many recipients report that their skin is smoother and tighter.</p> <p>Bela Luz uses LTW International's DermaKinetics facials to refurbish worn-down facescapes, evicting fine lines and pigmentation during 45-minute treatment sessions. The non-invasive facial imbues visages with energizing peptides, vitamin C, and hyaluronic acid. Narrow-wavelength light gently stimulates molecules and defensive linebackers blocking the skin's surface, penetrating the epidermal guards without damaging any structures. The rejuvenating compounds battle blemishes in the long term without discomfort or downtime, and patrons can return to normal activities, such as shaving mohawks onto poodles, immediately following. </p><h3>Groupon Says</h3><p>The Groupon Guide to Everyman’s Classics: Animal Farm</p><p>Is a society run by animals doomed to fail/be hilarious? </p><p><a href="http://www.groupon.com/deals/bela-luz-health-salon-2">Read more...</a></p><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?a=MXVUrEE8TVM:fzjWUzl2gnQ:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?a=MXVUrEE8TVM:fzjWUzl2gnQ:qj6IDK7rITs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?d=qj6IDK7rITs" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?a=MXVUrEE8TVM:fzjWUzl2gnQ:KwTdNBX3Jqk"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?i=MXVUrEE8TVM:fzjWUzl2gnQ:KwTdNBX3Jqk" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?a=MXVUrEE8TVM:fzjWUzl2gnQ:gIN9vFwOqvQ"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?i=MXVUrEE8TVM:fzjWUzl2gnQ:gIN9vFwOqvQ" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/grouponwashington-dc/~4/MXVUrEE8TVM" height="1" width="1"/> http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/grouponwashington-dc/~3/MXVUrEE8TVM/bela-luz-health-salon-2 http://groupon.com/washington-dc/deals/bela-luz-health-salon-2 Tue, 07 Feb 2012 05:01:28 +0000 http://groupon.com/washington-dc/deals/bela-luz-health-salon-2 <img align="right" alt="Kids' Friday Night Adventure for 1 or Birthday Party for Up to 10 at Summer at Sandy Spring (Up to 57% Off)" src="http://www.groupon.com/images/site_images/1990/6294/Group-113.jpg" width="120" /><p>Children occupied by constructive afterschool activities are less likely to skip school or hang out with dogs that convince children to skip school.

As the leisurely setting suggests, life seems to move at slower, more relaxed pace at Harmony Hill Bed &amp; Breakfast. It's not uncommon for a white-tailed deer to graze along the backyard gardens, and guests can dine throughout the morning at hourly seatings from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. Located in Virginia's Blue Ridge Mountain foothills, the lodge further complements its natural surroundings with stark wood walls and sustainable geothermal heating. </p> <p>Accented with natural white pine, cherry wood, and stone, each guest room is inspired by a musical theme. A quilted red, white, and blue window seat and other Americana décor enliven the Melody room, where guests can ask for an optional in-room massage. In the Fermata room, a fireplace crackles below a wide-screen HDTV, and satellite programming grants access to a variety of music channels. The inn also hosts an extensive video library, stocked with popular movies and home videos of Alexander Hamilton's first birthday party.</p> <p>Each morning, innkeeper Cherie Norris makes breakfast from 8 a.m. until 10 a.m., with guests dining either in the communal dining room or sun room. Throughout the day, the inn serves baked goods, tea, coffee, and other quick snacks for those eager to venture to nearby wineries or take a scenic trek to <a href="http://www.monticello.org/">Thomas Jefferson's Monticello</a>. </p> <h4>Lovingston, Virginia: Quaint Countryside near Blue Ridge Parkway</h4> <p>Located about 100 miles west of Richmond, Harmony Hill Bed &amp; Breakfast sits in central Virginia's Nelson County, which sprawls into the blue-hued Blue Ridge Mountains. At the county's northern edge, the 469-mile <a href="http://www.blueridgeparkway.org/">Blue Ridge Parkway</a> begins near Afton and runs south past Appalachian farm buildings, mountain vistas, and robotic banjo-playing forest animals until it reaches the Great Smoky Mountains in North Carolina. </p> <p>In Lovingston, artisan shops and galleries spotlight local artists, displaying wood-fired pottery and acrylic paintings inspired by the surrounding hillside. The area's natural terrain and mild year-round temperatures also foster apple orchards and wineries that host guided tours and tastings. </p><h3>Groupon Says</h3><p></p><p><a href="http://www.groupon.com/deals/ga-m-harmony-hill">Read more...</a></p><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?a=Qr7Tys2_zuA:_8TbPzgZ3SM:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?a=Qr7Tys2_zuA:_8TbPzgZ3SM:qj6IDK7rITs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?d=qj6IDK7rITs" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?a=Qr7Tys2_zuA:_8TbPzgZ3SM:KwTdNBX3Jqk"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?i=Qr7Tys2_zuA:_8TbPzgZ3SM:KwTdNBX3Jqk" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?a=Qr7Tys2_zuA:_8TbPzgZ3SM:gIN9vFwOqvQ"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?i=Qr7Tys2_zuA:_8TbPzgZ3SM:gIN9vFwOqvQ" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/grouponwashington-dc/~4/Qr7Tys2_zuA" height="1" width="1"/> http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/grouponwashington-dc/~3/Qr7Tys2_zuA/ga-m-harmony-hill http://groupon.com/washington-dc/deals/ga-m-harmony-hill Tue, 07 Feb 2012 05:01:06 +0000 http://groupon.com/washington-dc/deals/ga-m-harmony-hill <img align="right" alt="Comprehensive Dental Exam, Take-Home Custom Whitening Kit, or Zoom!

New-patient exams begin with a <a href="http://www.lansdownedentistry.com/Procedures_DentalExamsCleanings_457797.aspx">professional cleaning</a>, which removes plaque, nixes tartar, and polishes teeth till they’re shinier than a seal in a patent-leather wetsuit. X-rays detect decay, tumors, or bone loss, and also illustrate the root positions of all teeth. The exam can help to stave off illness through early detection, inspecting the mouth for oral cancer, gum disease, decay, or vampire fangs. Alternatively, a custom-made tray lifts stains from patients' mouth bones, and a <a href="http://www.zoomwhitening.com/">Zoom! whitening</a> treatment lightens chompers with gel and three 15-minute blasts of focused light.</p><h3>Groupon Says</h3><p>The Groupon Guide to Everyman’s Classics: Animal Farm</p><p>Is a society run by animals doomed to fail/be hilarious? </p><p><a href="http://www.groupon.com/deals/lansdowne-dental-arts">Read more...</a></p><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?a=iJNtzQSJ0HQ:CzHAsWlbLqM:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?a=iJNtzQSJ0HQ:CzHAsWlbLqM:qj6IDK7rITs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?d=qj6IDK7rITs" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?a=iJNtzQSJ0HQ:CzHAsWlbLqM:KwTdNBX3Jqk"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?i=iJNtzQSJ0HQ:CzHAsWlbLqM:KwTdNBX3Jqk" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?a=iJNtzQSJ0HQ:CzHAsWlbLqM:gIN9vFwOqvQ"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/grouponwashington-dc?i=iJNtzQSJ0HQ:CzHAsWlbLqM:gIN9vFwOqvQ" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/grouponwashington-dc/~4/iJNtzQSJ0HQ" height="1" width="1"/> http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/grouponwashington-dc/~3/iJNtzQSJ0HQ/lansdowne-dental-arts http://groupon.com/washington-dc/deals/lansdowne-dental-arts Tue, 07 Feb 2012 05:01:01 +0000 http://groupon.com/washington-dc/deals/lansdowne-dental-arts
