Here is some simple guidance to using Immobilise.
This helps us to find out about your goods if they are stolen
It's pretty simple
So here goes
Firstly a few key snippets about Immobilise
· Immobilise.com is the UK's National property register with over 26 million members.
· The free Immobilise.com service is supported by police throughout the UK and helps fight property crime
· Immobilise provides a free, secure, off-site portfolio of your valuable possessions
· Immobilise helps police identify the owner of lost & stolen property thousands of times each day.
· Loss & theft updates you make are immediately available to the Police nationally.
· Simplify insurance claims and Police reports with certificates of ownership
· If your phone, bike, computer or any other registered item is lost or stolen, use Immobilise to instantly tell police, insurers, and the second-hand trade. These actions help greatly in the recovery of your property and capture of thieves.
A very good description of Immobilise, its benefits and how it integrates with its partners like the police can be found at www.immobilise.com/about
That page also includes examples of investigation scenarios that may be of use in expanded information. However to briefly summarise for you:
The FREE Immobilise service is the UK's National Property Register. Together with its sister sites the Police's NMPR (www.thenmpr.com ) and CheckMEND (www.checkmend.com ), it forms a very effective tool in reducing crime and repatriating recovered personal property to its rightful owners.
The secure Immobilise system is used by both the public and businesses to register their valued possessions or company assets, making property ownership details viewable on the Police national property database the NMPR. The Police only online checking service is used by all UK Police forces to trace owners of lost and stolen property. In addition Immobilise is checked daily by a huge range of recovery agencies and lost property offices.
As a direct result of Immobilise there are over 250 cases a week where property is returned or information collected that assists the Police in investigating criminal activity involving stolen goods.
Immobilise is also the only ownership registration service supported by all UK Police forces, the Greater London Authority, Transport for London and the Mobile Phone Industry.

"The Taliban were asking for taxes, sometimes for young men to fight with them," he said recently, standing in his field with his brother and two sons. "They were beating people and asking for weapons, and those who didn't have anything were killed or tortured."
Mohammad says he fled the area for months at a time, abandoning his young children in order to find relative safety in Kunduz City. He said he hasn't received any help from German troops, who have been stationed here for years, or from the newly arrived U.S. troops.
But what angers him the most -- and what he blames most for his insecurity -- is the weak local government and police force. He says calling the police is never an option: "By the time the police would get here the Taliban would have killed us." And he says the government's inability to guarantee justice allows instability to spread. He hates today's Taliban, but remembers their pre-9/11 administration fondly, because of today's government inefficiency.
"Taliban were quick to resolve any issue in 10 to 20 minutes by making a decision one way or the other," he says. "To tell you the truth, their government was very strong."
The NATO-led military effort in Afghanistan argues that in the last six months, the pressure on militant leaders in Kunduz and its neighboring provinces has increased. Since the beginning of September, special operations forces have killed or captured 14 insurgent commanders in Kunduz and Takhar province, according to NATO military statistics, most of them members of the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan. In addition, dozens more fighters have been captured or killed, increasing the risk they take to run an insurgency.
But at the same time, NATO admits the violence is up, and that there are not enough U.S. resources to guarantee Afghans' security, especially in the rural districts outside of Kunduz City and Mazar-e-Sharif, the largest cities in the north.
"There's less awareness than we need to have," a senior NATO military official said, "because we're not there."
The U.S. simply cannot dedicate to the north the resources it deploys to Helmand and Kandahar. And so, in the words of a U.S. official, "this is an Afghan government problem" -- in part because the vacuums of governance have allowed the problem to deteriorate, and in part because the United States has no other choice but to hope the Afghans can solve the problems themselves.
Residents say outside the cities, the security situation is deteriorating. In Baghlan province, just south of Kunduz, residents say they cannot drive on the main highway which connects to Kabul without being stopped by the Taliban, who check their phones and pockets for any evidence of work with the government or Westerners.
In the northern tip of Kunduz province, residents say the Taliban killed a man they accused of spying for the United States and dumped his body in the main market. Nobody dared to remove it for 10 days, one man from the area said, even though Islam requires quick burials.

If you're a fan of the Chevy Volt plug-in hybrid, but have wanted a bit more style, General Motors might have something for you. Next month GM is going to unveil the 2014 Cadillac ELR extended-range electric vehicle, which shares its electric drivetrain with the Volt, but is wrapped in a much sexier exterior. We're just under a month away from its official debut at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show, but GM has released a teaser photo of the new electric luxury coupe.
The 2014 Cadillac ELR will borrow its design heavily from the Cadillac Converj concept. From this single teaser photo we can tell that the production version will retain the concept's side profile, but we will have to wait until next month to see what has changed. GM hasn't released any other details about the 2014 ELR, other than stating that it will enter production by the end of 2013 and be built at GM's Detroit-Hamtramck plant.
"The ELR will be in a class by itself, further proof of our commitment to electric vehicles and advanced technology," General Motors North America President Mark Reuss said in a keynote address at the SAE Convergence Conference in Detroit. "People will instantly recognize it as a Cadillac by its distinctive, signature look and true-to-concept exterior design."
The 2014 Cadillac ELR will have its world debut on January 15th.

Are drugs leaving your veterinary practice the wrong way?
A client of mine—let's call her Dr. Jones—recently learned of her need for tight drug controls in a painful way. One of her employees failed to show up over a holiday weekend to clean cages and walk and feed boarded animals. On my recommendation, Dr. Jones fired the employee for cause and was preparing to escort her from the building, when the employee dropped a bombshell.
"You shouldn't fire me," she exclaimed. "You should fire Julie! She's the one who's stealing drugs from you."
Whoa. That just added a new element to the story. Now not only was Dr. Jones firing one employee, but she had to figure out what to do about Julie, a technician who had been with the practice for three years and had nothing but rave reviews.Losing control
Here's the backstory. Six months prior, my firm had conducted an on-site consultation at Dr. Jones' hospital. As part of the operational audit, we discovered the practice didn't keep track of controlled drugs. Practice logs failed to match up with inventory and medical records. Dr. Jones didn't keep controlled drugs in a proper locked cabinet or safe.
We discussed these problems with Dr. Jones, and she was receptive to our recommendations. But when we presented those recommendations to her technician Julie, who was in charge of the controlled drugs, she balked.
Julie said the drug handling protocols we recommended were "stupid" and unnecessary for such a small practice. We assured Julie that these procedures were, in fact, necessary and gave her the information and tools the practice needed to comply with the law and effectively manage controlled drugs. We even recommended they treat Tramadol as a controlled drug, even though it technically isn't one.
One of the biggest objections Julie had was to the controlled drug cabinet we suggested they buy and install in the treatment area. She said a cabinet was a waste of money. The practice was in the habit of keeping all their controlled drugs out on the counter all day, then placing them in an unlocked drawer at the end of the day.
Prevent and protect
In retrospect, it all made sense. I advised Dr. Jones to review the controlled drug logs and match them to the actual inventory on hand. Each bottle had been numbered and the controlled drug log sheets matched up to each bottle. Dr. Jones found that the quantities listed on the controlled drug logs matched the quantity on hand. She then compared the controlled drug logs to what the computer showed as used and dispensed. No big surprise; they didn't match.
Where the controlled drug log showed 40 Tramadol dispensed to a client, the computer showed that only 20 were invoiced to the client, and the same held true for Valium. In total, it appeared that about 140 pills were taken from the current bottle of Tramadol, and we had only started the investigation. All the incorrect entries were in Julie's writing, with her initials on the form.
Long story short, Dr. Jones contacted the local police and filed the appropriate paperwork with the Drug Enforcement Agency. She also confronted Julie about what she found, with the practice manager in attendance to witness the discussion.
When Dr. Jones told Julie that the police had been contacted and were on their way, Julie broke down in tears and confessed to a drug problem that prompted her theft over the past two years.
In this sad but true cautionary tale, it's easy to see why establishing drug controls are so very important. The moral of this story is that this can indeed happen to you if you don't take the steps necessary to prevent it. A bit of time up front can save you tons of time, money and heartache later—and protect your staff, clients and patients from costly or even deadly mistakes.

A Foolish Plan
By Skip Heitzig
I was reading the words of one prominent pastor who said, "I don't think anything has been done in the name of Christ, or under the banner of Christianity, that has proved more detrimental to the human condition than the crude and uncouth idea that mankind is lost and in need of a savior." I was amazed. That came from a clergyman?
What does the Bible teach about what that clergyman said? The Bible says very plainly that if we say we have no sin, we are a liar and the truth is not in us (1 John 1:8). It says, "The wages of sin is death" (Romans 6:23). In Genesis 2, God told Adam and Eve that "in the day that you eat of it (the forbidden fruit) you shall surely die." And Romans 5:12 says that "through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned."
You see, mankind has a virus more deadly than the HIV virus; it's the SIN virus. We all have it. It's a part of our nature, but it's also our choice. We don't realize how badly infected we are, and that we need the cross.
In 1 Corinthians 1:23 Paul wrote, "But we preach Christ crucified," and he said the message of the cross is a "stumbling block" and "foolishness" to most people. And we could add that it's "uncouth" and "crude" to some.
When I was a young believer I used to witness to a woman that I worked with. She said, "I don't get it! The whole idea of Jesus dying on the cross for me, when I wasn't even born yet, is ridiculous!"
The world doesn't understand God's plan. They think it's foolishness. But I like how the New Living Translation renders 1 Corinthians 1:25: "This foolish plan of God is wiser than the wisest of human plans." Romans 6:23 concludes, "But the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord." That is what God offers us, through the sacrifice of His Son on the cross.
So, far from being "crude and uncouth," the message of the cross is sublime. It is the essence of God's gracious love to humankind. And the idea that we need a Savior isn't "detrimental to the human condition," it's the truth. The Savior is the only hope for the human condition!
"Thanks be to God for His indescribable gift!" (2 Corinthians 9:15).

I think the thing about adblock is that the video clips won't play until the commercials are done, and adblock prevents the commercials from loading. I think.
By the way, Dan, I've noticed that sometimes, even with adblock off, sometimes the commercials load but get skipped over. I know the Bidz.com and Real Age ones play, but other ones won't. Like, the Domino's one will pop up, but then close and start the regular video without playing itself. I mean, this isn't exactly a complaint, as I still get to see what I wanted, but I imagine it'd be better for ANN if those ads worked the way they were intended to.
I'm running Windows XP and Firefox 3.0.5.

|Seems recently after closing the ads and the video starts playing, the video hud is no longer accessible preventing pausing and full screen mode. I am on Vista Business 64-bit Edition with Firefox, and adblock plus disabled. This didn't used to happen so I assume it's on ANN's end. Nothing has changed on my system since it started.

I just tried to watch the Scandal videos, but for some reason, the ad (Mercury) wouldn't go away when the ad part was done. It just sat there on the screen blocking the music video except for the very edges. Sound was unaffected.
The ad is active, too, 'cause when I click on the edges, the video pauses, but when I click on the actual ad part, it takes me to the ad's website.
Firefox 3.0.10 and Windows Vista, ads by Longtail.

Sometime video playback will pause (spinner shows), skip a few seconds, or totally hang. If it hangs, I have to restart the section (e.g. the 1-4 parts of an episode) to continue. I can then replay the part where it hung before. There are no error messages.
I have experienced this with: Moonphase Ep 1 and Kannagi Ep 3, HQ and LQ, FF and IE.

|I'm stumped. Your CPU is crazy-fast, bandwidth is more than enough, and even the traceroute shows very low latency. Problems that only happen "sometimes" are particularly difficult to troubleshoot. How often is "sometimes"?

Nothing appears broken to me. It it everything, or just the ones originating from ANN?
If not even the hulu embeds are working, I think the problem might be with Flash.
BTW, installing Flash Player 10.1 beta did wonders for my performance issues.

|Sorry, if this is the wrong place to post my question. I did spend 15 minutes looking for the answer on ANN. If this information was on the FAQs then I must have missed. I would like to subscribe to Anime TV, but I can't find the link to the information about it. If I subscribe will it be ads free or not for a subscription fee. If someone can e-mail with the link to the subscription fee. Thanks.

|Assuming this "Anime TV" you're talking about is the video section, there is no subscription that would allow you to turn off the ads. The $20/year site subscription allows to turn off banners but that doesn't include video ads.

Guest Access
You neighbour Mrs Komang is a very good cook. If you do not feel like going out, you can order lunch and dinner from her as well!
Any questions you have, please, do not hesitate to ask her or myself.....
The Neighborhood
Candidasa is in the east of Bali, which is a perfect starting point for tours all over Bali. Wayan Jarot can take you on these tours. He can also pick you up from the airport or you previous accommodation. Just let us know when and where.
Other Things to Note
Check-in and check-out time are stated, but if you arrive early or want to leave a bit later, please ask us for the possibilities.
Please do not smoke, and do not light candles inside. Do not invite neighbourhood pets inside.
We had a great time in Candidasa! Our hosts were so lovely and really catered to everything that we could have asked for. I was in fact pleasantly surprised to see that the photos didn't do our little studio any justice. It was 100x better than the photos and it truly is waterfront! You could walk over to see sunset in 20 seconds, and with a staircase leading right into the clean, clear ocean it makes for a very nice swim in the morning or evenings. Our next door neighbors and host prepared a wonderful breakfast for us each morning at a very low cost, 30,000 each or $2.75 each for breakfast, quite a deal. They were also helpful in arranging a snorkeling tour with a friend of theirs and we had the place to ourselves for only (phone number hidden) hours or $50 for both of us. The studio is in a great location, the heart of Candidasa and Bu Ana means the heart so it was very fitting. Would definitely recommend to travelers. One suggestion, keep your mugs in the freezer for beers because most of the stores in the area don't keep much of anything very cold. Another small note, the bed is a bit small so if you're very tall or need a big space, be weary of the size (full bed).
Candidasa is an amazing part of the island to stay in... White Sand Beach next to this place has been our favorite beach on the island so far. This area has so much more character than the commercial area of Seminyak. The place is a basic but cozy place to stay right on the water. The bed is a bit tight for two people, perfect for one person. Annerie was a very nice host who let us rent her scooter and has good contacts for chartered drivers.
I had a great short trip to candidasa. When I arrived komang eas very helpful with information about places to visit especially white sand beach and let me hire one of her scooters. Ibu ana was away but had organized a trip with her friend Kadek to his village of tenganan dauh where I learned to play gamelan instruments in my own private workshop with Kadek. This was a great experience for me and I'm very appreciative of Kadek and ibu ana for suggesting it and I would recommend it to anyone interested in World Music and a challenge for both sides of the brain.
We LOVED staying at Bu Ana Alit! Komang and her family are the best neighbours/caretakers you could ask for in Bali. They are extremely warm and welcoming and will help you with anything you may need and will go out of their way to be helpful. When we had the pleasure of meeting Annerie on the last day of our stay she was so welcoming and gave us great tips for the rest of our trip.
The studio was the perfect size for my partner and I and has everything you need. It is situated a stones throw from a beautiful beach that is the perfect place to drink your morning coffee or watch the sunset.
We didn't want to leave! But we will definitely be coming back, and for longer next time.
Try Komang's banana pancakes! Best on the island.
Such a wonderful and nice studio only 20 meters from the ocean where you'll have a great view on the sunset. Pity that I could only stay for two nights.
The studio itself is nice, cozy, small and has a great bathroom and some kitchen supplies to prepare your own cup of coffee or small meal.
The hosts, Annerie and Komang, are lovely people that help out wherever they can, regardless of what you're looking for: breakfast, nice places to go to, renting scooters, helping to find the right person to do the laundry, etc.
I'd highly recommend this nice and inspirational place.
Wunderschöne Unterkunft inmitten von Candidasa, liebevoll betreut von Annerie und Komang. Ich habe mich sofort zuhause gefühlt. Ein fantastischer Ort, um neue Kraft zu tanken, zu relaxen und das ursprüngliche Bali kennenzulernen. Vielen Dank und bis zum Wiedersehen, alles Gute!
Wow! What a hidden little gem. This little studio bungalow has anything you may need and more sitting so close to the sea that you can fall asleep listening to the waves break at night. Candidasa itself has a beautiful beach and some really great restaurants. Ana is lovely and nothing beats watching the spectacular sunset after a great day here! Would definitely recommend!
This host has 10 reviews for other properties.View Other Reviews
Just enjoy and relax the Balinese way of life!

Bank Robbery
By KWGS News
Tulsa, OK – Shortly before 11 this morning, a lone bandit walked into the Bank of Oklahoma Branch location at I-244 and 33rd West Avenue. The bandit waited in line for the teller and then pulled his gun.
Witnesses tell KWGS News, the robber was polite but somewhat impatient. Once he got his cash he fled the bank. No one was injured.

Nothing like hanging with friends and making something. @firehouseartcenter
Colorado winter. It taketh and giveth.
Something new and creepy for you…
On April 3rd, we will be releasing Loud and Clear, a collection of three murder ballads. Some stories scream for a visual element, so we hired artist Pat Jensen to create a comic that tells the story of the title track. 4/3 will be a show at 753 Sante Fe (address and name of the venue) – an art gallery in the heart of First Friday. See ya soon.
Ayda giving her thoughts on the new murder ballad.
We learned: coffee beans smell good but taste bad, handfuls of beans are fun, the button makes a sound, ground beans smell great, but still taste bad, and coffee is hot.
"When God made ham he f***ing nailed it." @nathanielrateliff
Tried our beer last night. Absolutely delicious. Try it this Saturday night.
We hope you are enjoying time with family as much as we are. Here's to 2014. Much thanks to you for the ongoing support with our series of EP's we have been releasing. If you are unaware of what we are doing…
In an effort to put out content on a regular basis, we bring you the B-side EP's. So far we have released two of them, Your Own Devices and Balance With Me. The B-side EP's contain three tracks: one polished, radio-ready track, and two live b-sides. Doing the b-sides live allows us to capture the creation of the recording on video. The first videos can be seen on our Media page. We have been doing limited CD runs of each EP, which we package by hand. Check them out here.
This project is keeping us really busy, creative, and sharp, so we're gonna keep going.
That's all for now. Stay in touch.

By the way, we had a blast with you the other night. Thanks for being you.
Having a blast making your gifts for this weekend. 12/20 at Leon Gallery ya'll.

tricorder - mini map - mobs
I can appreciate some wanting to see red dots on the mini map.
But it takes away some of the mystery of "what is around the next corner?"
Sometimes it's exciting to race down a hallway and turn the corner and run into 5 mobs that start shooting. You stop, retreat a bit and are startled... Kind of fun.
Perhaps the tricorder could be integrated in such a way that you get general distance and number of life signs, but not a permanent mini map with red dots.
Any other thoughts on this subject?

Visit the Shetland Crofthouse Museum
This is a wonderful small museum that shows how people lived in traditional croft houses. You can visit the living quarters, the sleeping quarters, the byre and the drying kiln. Also interesting is a large stack of peat blocks, thatched roof with rock anchors, an old boat (no longer sea-worthy) that has been turned upside down to form the roof of a shed, grinding stones, and fish being dried in front of a peat fire. You can see traditional box beds and a spinning wheel as well. There is an on-site volunteer interpreter who was very charming and knowlegeable
Open May-Sept, daily, 10am-1pm and 2pm-5pm. Admission freeRelated to:

Watch the Ponies!
The Shetland Pony is everywhere on the Islands. They are darling, come in a variety of colors and are all very short and pudgy. They were "conscripted" into work inside the mines because their short legs and hardy nature made it easy for them to get around and haul heavy loads. Apparently the introduction of the ponies into mining began at the same time that laws were passed prohibiting the use of child laborers in the mines. Here are photos of some ponies I met.Related to:

Hermaness National Nature Reserve
This is a national nature reserve where you can do a good bit of hiking. The sea cliffs have huge nesting colonies of sea birds: Gannets, Guillemots, Puffins and Kittiwakes. You pass through Bonxie nesting areas on the way to the cliffs. It can get very windy along this area and it is very marshy in places so waterproof boots are advised. You cannot take dogs into the area. Sheep pretty much have the run of the area and can do some amazing things with getting to some seemingly inaccessible parts of the cliffs. You have a wonderful view of Muckle Flugga and its lighthouse (most northern in Great Britain) from Hermaness.Related to:

Mousa Broch
Mousa is an uninhabited island with one of the best preserved iron age brochs in all of Britain. You get to the island by ferry and then hike to the broch. I was there on the summer solstice at midnight. We went specifically at this time because we could see the Storm Petrals coming in from sea and going to their nests which were built in the walls of the broch. It was a very clear night so we were lucky they came in - they prefer the cover of bad weather because they are pretty far down the food chain and get picked off pretty easy. The broch is double walled with a staircase between the walls. You can climb all the way to the top and get a wonderful view. This is an absolute must see. The picture at left was taken at midnight on the solstice. The shiny points are tags marking items being studied on the broch. Take a flashlight and warm clothing. We were lucky with clear weather and were able to hike by moon-light.Related to:

Visit the Stevenson Lighthouses
The ancestors of Robert Louis Stevenson are famous for the lighthouses they designed and built around Scotland. This one is of the Muckle Flugga lighthouse which is Britain's most northerly lighthouse. The building of some of these lighthouses is a true engineering feat.
There is a wonderful book on the lighthouses named "The Lighthouse Stevensons" by Bella Bathurst, published by Flamingo (Harper -Collins)

Hike to Fethaland
This is a beautiful walk that goes to an abandoned fishing village and a lighthouse. You need to cross private property to get to it and should make sure that all gates are closed behind you and that your follow the code of being responsible, taking care of the environement and respecting the interests of the landowner whose land you are crossing. Near the end of the walk is an abandoned fishing village. The fishermen used to spend a significant part of the year living in these isolated settlements when their families remained back at the croft. To access this land we had to drive through a pasture that was clearly marked "Bull" because the animal was apparently not real friendly and walking across the pasture was not deemed real safe. One of my pics shows what the vegetation is like on the cliff face where the sheep can't get to it. They really do eat everything. It is no wander that cattle ranchers in the West refer to them as "hooved locusts".Related to:

- Birdwatching
There is a wide variety of wild flowers growing in Shetland. Some are very common while others, such as Frog Orchid and Oyster Plant, are rare. A good place to see rare plants is the Keen of Hamar which is a wind-swept glacial area that has special designation. There are places where there is such an abundance of wild flowers, that I called it the "Shetland Bouquet". As to be expected, the vegetation is quite lush where the sheep can't access it - this happen only in the more remote sections of cliff faces. The sheep are pretty good climbers.Related to:
- Eco-Tourism
Go Bird Watching
The birding is out-of-this-world in Shetland. There are large breeding colonies of sea birds that can be seen from land and are especially visible from sea. Great Skuas, Arctic Terns, Shags, Gannets, Kittiwakes, Puffins, Eider Ducks, Guillemots, Razorbills, Fulmars, Swans and many more abound around the islands. One of the photos here shows a land nest with nest detritus - notice the dead Oyster Catcher - most likely the nest had belonged to a Bonxie (a.k.a. Great Skua) which will catch other birds as food for its young. A great boat trip to take is with Dr. Jonathan Wills aboard the Dunter III with Sea Birds and Seals http://www.seabirds-and-seals.com/ . Jonathan has an underwater camera aboard so you can see below the surface as well. You get great views of the cliff areas where numerous species of seabirds nest and you get to see Puffin Flotillas out in the ocean.Related to:
- Eco-Tourism
- Birdwatching
Visit abandoned churches and graveyards
There are abandoned settlements throughout Shetland. Many of these are due to the Clearances that also had a major impact on Orkney and the Highlands. They are dotted across the landscape. Many people have moved into newer homes and have left the old croft houses to fall into disrepair.Related to:
- Historical Travel
Visit Eshaness
This is a beautiful, windy area where there is a lighthouse and a wonderful view of the cliffs. There is a lava flow here and a blowhole where water flies up through a break in the rock. It is a great location for walks.Related to:

Peat Cutting in Shetland
Some people in Shetland still heat their homes with peat. There are vast peat cutting areas where families have individual plots and cut peat using traditional methods. The photos here show peat stacked outside the Shetlands Crofthouse Museum plus several that show the peat cutting areas as well as the initial drying of peat bricks and their stacking for final drying before transport.Related to:

Beware of Nikademius the mischievous Trow
A walk down the daal to the 'Sneck o da Smallie' on Foula is a must for all people who like adventure ,who dont mind a 100ft rock scramble through a dank dark rock fault which cuts down to the sea giving access to teeming seabird colonies. Legend has it that a Trow (troll) called 'nikademius' lives in this recess! but we haven't found him yet.
be prepared to get wet and dirty. sounds like an ordeal but it is well worth it!
other places to see on foula are The Kame..one of the highest ,sheerest sea cliffs in britain...1200ft drop into the Atlantic...not for the faint hearted or vertigo sufferer !
The sea stack 'Gaada ' at the north end of the isle is spectacular .It is made up of 3 pillars towering 130ft ...nesting seabirds wheel in and out of it as the clear blue lashes about its feet.
A traverse of Foula's hills is a must and it is possible to walk them easily within a day. the highest being 'The Sneug' at 1400 ft. On a clear fine day it is must.Related to:

Take a boat-trip
If you haven't arrived in your own boat a boat-trip will show you a side of Shetland which is otherwise inaccessible.
There are several trips operating out of Lerwick, including the 'Seabirds-and-seals' trip which I took (see the Lerwick page for the review). Well worth the money.
Or you could take the Mousa ferry from Aithsvoe (see my Mousa page), probably seeing porpoises on the way and certainly giving you 3 hours or so on the island to explore its wonderful birdlife and its magnificent Iron Age broch, the best-preserved example in existence.
Or you could take the regular ferry from Lerwick to Bressay and/or perhaps drive across that island to take the ferry (an inflatable boat) to the Noss National Nature Reserve.
Or you could drive up to Toft and take the ferry to Yell, and perhaps onwards to Unst.
Ferry options and timetables can be found on the link below.
Lots and lots of options, whether you have a car or not. But, definitely, take some sort of boat trip whilst you are visiting!Related to:

Walk and walk and walk....
Drive to get to places, of course...or take the bus.
But Shetland is made for walking. Unlike Orkney, it has very few cows....it's sheep country....so you need not worry about crossing fields full of nursing cows or bullocks here!
And Scotland does not have the public footpaths you find in England, so you can walk anywhere...but sensibly, of course.
Don't walk through growing crops (remember grass is a crop, for hay); walk round the edge of the field.
Leave gates as you find them and, if you must climb a gate or fence (because it is otherwise un-moveable) then make sure you climb nearest the hinged gatepost, where it's stongest.
Don't leave litter of any type. Not only is it ugly, it can (and does) also kill wildlife.
Avoid frightening sheep (it can make them abort when pregnant, it can lead to them breaking limbs at other times) or seals (they loll because they need to do so, not because they are lazy).
Avoid frightening birds too: many birds will abandon their nests if frightened, but the skuas and fulmars (especially the bonxies) will make very sure they frighten *you*!. Even though they rarely hit you, being dive-bombed by screaming, angry skuas or fulmars is remarkably scary and unpleasant...put your hand above your head and beat a hasty retreat.
When you are walking you'll see birds and flowers, wonderful geology and landscape, superb views around every corner. Along the coast you'll see seals, maybe porpoises.....maybe whales if you are seriously lucky!
There are more than 6000 archaeological sites in Shetland. Many are not signed in any way, but you'll see them marked on the Ordnance Survey maps (well worth buying these before you come). Walking is the only way to visit most of these......Iron Age brochs, Neolithic barrow tombs, Bronze age 'burnt mounds', ancient standing stones...
So.....wear the right clothes, wear the right footwear, pack something to eat and drink (shops are few and far between), remember your binoculars and your camera... and set out to explore. If you are exploring wild country, such as Northmavine, take Ordnance Survey map, compass and emergency supplies with you.
Enjoy! :-)Related to:

Visit Lerwick
Lerwick is the capital of Shetland, with stone-flagged streets and many narrow 'closses' (alleyways), shops, cafes and a couple of supermarkets...and a population of less than 8000, although almost half of the whole Shetland population (totalling 22000) live nearby..
So, as you can imagine, it's not really a huge capital city. It's just a small town, where people know each other, where the community is strong but visitors are welcomed.
I'll write in more detail about the town on my Lerwick page. It has a really excellent (and new) museum, a lovely (and busy) set of harbours where you can watch boats and birds, several interesting bits of architecture and lovely walks along the Knab.
It is from Lerwick that most buses and boat tours around the island operate...seabirds and seals and stunning cliff scenery. The ferry to Bressay leaves regularly (every 30 minutes or so, a 10-minute trip) so it's easy to visit there too. A car helps hugely but you can still see a lot of the islands by bus.
If you visit Shetland you'll almost certainly visit Lerwick, and definitely so if you come on a cruise: it's Shetland's cruise port. You'll enjoy it! :-)Related to:

Again did I made the right decision to come here. The steaks as well as the service was outstanding again. As always, I recommend this restaurant and will continue to return.
Wasn't impressed. Pigeon wings were...excuse me chicken wings were barely buffalo. Bland and cold food generally compared to what you are used to. Good service from waitstaff slow kitchen.
Friday's is definitely a safe bet when you're looking for an American restaurant with tasty food. I recommend: mushroom chicken mushroom burger, sesame jack chicken strips, all burgers (the Jack Daniels sauce is great, although sometimes the beef is too bland), Friday's free for all starter, extreme buffalo chicken tacos, chocolate turtle, baby back ribs...
I've been there many times...
We only go there if we are in mood for the special JD souce . The meet prepare with it is just great :)
Once more did we had dinner at TGI. As always, the service was outstanding. But the steaks as well as the starters are excellent. They have the best steaks in town. I love my Jack Daniels steaks. I will always return and recommend this place..
The best burgers in Warsaw in my opinion although the prices here are really high. I've tried several other dishes but I keep going back to the burgers because the other dishes are small and expensive. Very nice staff. Drinks and cocktails are also very good but very expensive.
I love TGI fridays!
We went here twice on our trip to Warsaw. It was as expected: delicious! The Jack Daniels Steak was amazing, and so was the burger and ofcourse the dessert!
The staff was friendly and helpful, and spoke english.
The one bad thing was that you could not get the regular deal where you get free re-fill...
Went midweek on a cold February evening. Place wasn't busy (about 8pm) and I was invited to sit anywhere I liked. Once inside, this place could be anywhere. Very corporate TGI but nonetheless, pleasant. I had the combo fajita tower with tacos. It was nice other than the tacos were a little on the thick side. Good choice of beer,...
I have been at this restaurant many times for business and private. The staff speaks very good English and is very friendly. The steaks and spare rips are outstanding.
Thank you to the staff for always a good time!!!!!!

great value, gorgeous food, lovely cocktails. happy hour is between 4 and 6 so all drinks and food half price.

This woman has written nine screenplays.Hollywood kills dreams. A more brutal and efficient destroyer of ideas could not be constructed by the most skilled engineers of death operating on an unlimited budget. Give them a thousand years and maybe they could come up with a Newark or a Dallas, but not Hollywood. Nothing like the hot hate for freethinking that has been synthesized and perfected by the American film and television industries. Walk to 5555 Melrose and on a quiet night you can hear the dead ideas creaking in the dark, like the salt-worn masts of forgotten ships.
The fools who go to Hollywood following their misbegotten dreams will break on those terrible dark rocks of the studios. They come by the millions with scripts, treatments, trailers shot on shoestring budgets and even the occasional independently finished product. They find the dragon's teeth of Paramount, Miramax, Warner Brothers and others waiting to chew them into pulp and spit them out into a waiter's smock at a juice bar on Sunset or face down in the tar pits with a blown-out carotid full of bad junk. If only they'd stayed home in their primitive villages to set their nets upon more easily caught butterflies.
Mr. Orenstein.But what if - and I almost dare not give voice to my idea lest Hollywood hear of it and quash it - those moths drawn to the candle's flame could find their life's aspirations crushed without traveling all the way to Hollywood? What if - and I shudder to suggest such a cruelty should be visited upon my most fiendish foe - the scions of Old Hollywood could be conjured forth to bring ruin upon a dreamer's dream in the comfort of that dreamer's own home? My friends, lives could be saved.
Hold that thought in your mind as I introduce to you George Orenstein, America's Producer. He is a real man, but that is not his name. He is the second highest paid producer of one of the largest studios in Hollywood. Mr. Orenstein, tenuously related to myself, has agreed to act as a proxy for all of Hollywood. He will implore you to reveal your greatest idea, to make your pitch, and with a single-minded fervor he will lay waste to what you hold dear. Perhaps, through some obscure mathematical improbability and a celestial confluence seen only once per eon, Mr. Orenstein will not hate your idea. But don't dare to hope.

The rooms at Eldorado Cafe is very different from what I am used to as a Scandinavian, but very clean and the woman working at day time was very helpful. The men working here had big problems with communication, but still managed to (trough googletranslate) to help us when we had any questiaons. At first we got a room with a fan instead of proper A/C, we thought it would be fine, but couldnt sleep at all, so we asked to change room, and got a bigger room with A/C and payed alot to get this. We where here during the World Cup, so I guess the rates are higher couse of this. Over all, the hotel is just fine, breakfast was very good, the hotel is located about 10min walk from the beach and to get there we had to walk in some creepy areas. I would recomend taxi at night time.
