Although Shropshire could be considered a quiet corner of England, this rural county near the Welsh border has plenty of visitor attractions, a rich cultural and historical heritage, beautiful gardens and fascinating museums.
Shropshire has many picturesque historical towns and villages, for example Ludlow, which John Betjeman once described as "the loveliest town in England". This bustling market town has a huge number of listed buildings, mostly from the Georgian period, fine restaurants, traditional inns and speciality shops.
Shrewsbury, the counties principal town is of Saxon heritage which was further developed by the Tudors. Located close to the River Severn the town is renowned for its castle, rising spires, abbey and green open parkland. It's also the perfect place to see some wonderful medieval buildings.
The county is the epitome of the most perfect rural countryside you can find, a place that has been formed over millions of years into a tranquil landscape of rolling hills and river gorges. Speaking of which the Iron Bridge Gorge Museums are a series of museums located in the Iron Bridge Gorge near the town of Telford. It's here that the beginning of the industrial revolution first took hold. Spanning the River Severn the outdoor and indoor museums offer a fascinating glimpse into the past.
The regions strategic location tells the tale of a turbulent past, evidenced by the hill forts, earthworks and castles which can be found throughout the Welsh borders. These include Ludlow Castle which was built in the 11th century and the Iron Age Hill Fort at Oswestry which covers some forty acres. Moreton Corbet Castle built in the 13th century was later extended in the 16th century. As well as these fascinating structures to Shropshire's past, the county has some lovely English Heritage properties like Stokesay Castle.
Other great days out ideas include a visit to the RAF Museum at Cosford, where you can see over 70 historical aircraft housed in 3 wartime hangers including world's oldest Spitfire and Lincoln Bomber. For more nostalgia visit the Severn Valley Railway, which run steam trains along the line from Bridgnorth to Kidderminster.
So if you hanker after a relaxing self-catering break in a most beautiful, untouched part of England, take a look at our selection of holiday cottages in Shropshire today.

Are the Shriners a front for an Islamic illuminati group?

why are you so hung up about them invoking Allah??
Allah and Jehovah are exactly the same god.
the god is the same and it's only the muslim religion/worship which is different.
just exactly the same as catholics, jews, Jehovah witness et cetera worship the same god by means of different religion.
just in case you don't realize that allah and yhw are the same just consider Abraham as the linchpin.
is Abraham the father of the jewish/Christian people :yes.
is Abraham the father of the arab/muslim people : yes.
who is the god of Abraham???
the jewish/Christians call him Jehovah
the arab/muslims call him allah...
it's all the same.
the same as lucifer and jesus are exactly the same person.
what does the bible call lucifer?? : the bright morning star.
what does the bible call jesus? : the star of the morning.
exactly the same star. in exactly the same book.
get over it. freemasons are good people.
their good deeds are self evident for all to see.
all members are good and decent men, often the pillars of society. impeccable character and reputation.
they freely give their time and money...yes money...to help the underprivileged in our society.
I challenge you to come up with one single shred of evidence of any wrongdoing whatsoever by any member.
are paedophile pastors and priests more eveil and sinister than a member of freemasons??? yes.
thank god for the freemasons, I say.
Think about the acts of terrorism done by Muslims, then think about an elite group of individuals who create an oath sworn on the Qur'an, and who command the unswerving loyalty of thousands of men...
Freemasons try to control the world to achieve their ends of a humanistic society, but which is under their 'enlightened' control, they are not averse to rebellious acts against governments, and use religions to further their goals.
They can pretend adherence to many beliefs, to national loyalties, to anything, and it is sanctioned under their rules of membership, because the end justifies the means to them.
My problem is not with the religion of Islam, but with how it could be being used to initiate acts of terrorism, by the group of high degree masons, who do exist (there is no doubt about this).
Nor is my problem with the footsoldiers, who may not be aware of the plans, and who probably do perform many good works.

CHARLOTTESVILLE The No. 1 Virginia men's tennis team remained undefeated on the season with a 4-3 victory over No. 25 Duke Friday at the Boyd Tinsley Courts at the Boar's Head Sports Club. The Cavaliers improve to 23-0 overall and 8-0 in the ACC with the victory, while the Blue Devils fall to 12-6 (5-3 ACC).
Duke took a 1-0 lead by winning the doubles point. It was only the second time all season that the Cavaliers lost the doubles point. Virginia got an 8-3 win at No. 3 from Drew Courtney (Clifton, Va.) and Lee Singer (Laguna Niguel, Calif.), but the Blue Devils scored wins at No. 1 and No. 2 to take the opening point.
The Cavaliers rallied in singles, winning five of the six first sets. Virginia evened the match as Sanam Singh (Chandigarh, India) topped Kiril Dimitrov 6-2, 6-2 at No. 2 singles. Dominic Inglot (London, England) gave the Cavaliers a 2-1 lead with his 7-6, 6-0 win at No. 1 over Reid Carleton. That advantage was extended to 3-1 as Courtney completed a 6-3, 7-5 win over Luke Marchese at No. 6 singles. After Duke had cut the lead to 3-2 with a win at No. 3 singles, Houston Barrick (Brentwood, Tenn.) clinched the Cavalier win as he downed Jared Pinsky 6-3, 6-2 at No. 4 singles.
The win was also Virginia's 39th consecutive win over an ACC opponent (regular season and tournament) and 46th consecutive home victory, extending both school records.
The Cavaliers will conclude the home portion of their regular season schedule on Sunday as they host North Carolina. Match time at the Snyder Tennis Center is 1 p.m.

DevOps Summit Early Bird Savings here!
If you want to bring the new kind of elastic cloud infrastructure revolutionized by leading public clouds or web-scale companies like FB, Google and Twitter, you have to change your thinking about a few key things: hardware, failure and scalability.
In his session at 2nd DevOps Summit, Randy Bias, Founder & CEO of Cloudscaling, will outline the key design principles and challenges involved with building these new kinds of clouds
Explore DevOps Summit Sponsorship & Exhibit Opportunities !
Speaker Bio:
Randy Bias is Co-Founder and CTO of Cloudscaling. His provocative views on the cloud computing disruption have made him one of the industry's most influential voices. He has inspired organizations to embrace cloud to transform business processes and position for success in a new world where computing resources are ubiquitous, inexpensive, instantly scalable, and highly available.
A vocal open systems advocate for more than two decades, Randy was the technical visionary at GoGrid and at CloudScale Networks. He led the open-licensing of GoGrid's APIs, which inspired Sun Microsystems, Rackspace Cloud, VMware and others to follow. In 2006, he co-founded Cloudscaling and since then has led teams that built and deployed cloud infrastructure for more than two dozen clients globally.
Randy was an early and vocal supporter of the OpenStack project, and led the teams that deployed the first public OpenStack storage cloud (Swift) outside of Rackspace, and the first public OpenStack compute cloud (Nova). He is a founding Board Member of the OpenStack Foundation. He also popularized the cloud server "pets vs. cattle" meme.
Randy blogs at Cloudscaling and Simplicity Scales, as well as GigaOm, CloudAve, O'Reilly Radar, TechCrunch and others. He is consistently recognized as one of the most influential social media voices in cloud computing. He is frequently interviewed in the media, and he speaks at dozens of industry events annually.

In addition to all the benefits, IoT is also bringing new kind of customer experience challenges - cars that unlock themselves, thermostats turning houses into saunas and baby video monitors broadcasting over the internet. This list can only increase because while IoT services should be intuitive and simple to use, the delivery ecosystem is a myriad of potential problems as IoT explodes complexity. So finding a performance issue is like finding the proverbial needle in the haystack.

Early adopters of IoT viewed it mainly as a different term for machine-to-machine connectivity or M2M. This is understandable since a prerequisite for any IoT solution is the ability to collect and aggregate device data, which is most often presented in a dashboard. The problem is that viewing data in a dashboard requires a human to interpret the results and take manual action, which doesn't scale to the needs of IoT.

Much of IT terminology is often misused and misapplied. Modernization and transformation are two such terms. They are often used interchangeably even though they mean different things and have very different connotations. Indeed, it is somewhat safe to assume that in IT any transformative effort is likely to also have a modernizing effect, and thus, we can see these as levels of improvement efforts. However, many businesses are being led to believe if they don't transform now they risk becoming ...

Sanyo HV-DX300A
- Good manual, easy to use
- Image quality not great
Bottom Line
The Sanyo could have been quite a decent combination device, but it gets too many little things wrong.
Price$ 279.00 (AUD)
Best Deals (Selling at 1 store)
We had some trouble coming to a conclusion on the Sanyo HV-DX300A. It gets some things annoyingly wrong, but then has some very good features to make up for it. It has no S-Video output, for instance, but does have excellent progressive scan support. You can record from DVD to video, but then it supports Macrovision, which will often make such an operation pointless. It has a nice, usable remote, but doesn't put an eject button on it. The manual is very easy to follow, but doesn't cover everything the Sanyo can do. You get the gist.
Bizarrely, the integral DVD player and VHS player seem to exist in different worlds. The interface for the VHS player is a throwback to the early '80s. It's extremely raw, with just a blue screen and text during setup. Switch over to the DVD player, however, and press setup and you get something totally different: a graphical GUI that's easy to use and allows you to get things changed very quickly. On the upside, the two work almost completely independently, allowing you to watch a DVD video while recording a TV show, for instance.
We weren't impressed by either the tuning, playback or recording capacity of the VHS component. It did not come near matching the Toshiba SD-34VLSY in terms of image quality, in spite of both players having six heads. Switching over to DVD, the playback was competent, although we detected a slight flicker in the DVD playback using composite video. It disappeared when we switch to component video and progressive scan (but you need to have a progressive scan screen to do this).
To connect the Sanyo to your TV, you can use the RF loop-through, composite RCA cables, or component video. You can also hook it up to a Dolby Digital amp via the coaxial or optical digital output cables.
MP3 fans would appreciate the Sanyo. Like most other devices in this category, it can play CDs full of MP3s file and present slide shows of images stored on disc. In spite of the specifications saying that it only supports MP3 CD-R and CD-RWs, we tested a DVD-R with images and audio and it worked perfectly.
The MP3 playback dialogue has two advantages over most of the competitors: it shows the full filename (others often truncate the name), and you can set up playlists of songs (although you cannot save the playlists). The quality of the audio was very good, but navigating through the directories was painfully slow.
The flicker present in interlaced display of DVD video was also in evidence in the JPG viewer, which was otherwise very good, offering an image preview and a slideshow. Again, however, it proved painfully slow to navigate through the images--another case of the Sanyo HV-DX300A delivering, but not quite getting it right.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Federal regulators and lawmakers are renewing the focus on financial regulation in the wake of a multibillion-dollar trading loss at JPMorgan Chase & Co.
News of the surprise loss at JPMorgan, the biggest U.S. bank by assets, has revived calls by Obama administration officials and Democratic lawmakers for tougher oversight of Wall Street banks. But Republicans insist that the 2010 financial overhaul law won't prevent another crisis and will drive business overseas. Regulators are still drafting rules for much of the law, and they have been lobbied by big banks to water down key areas.
Most Republican lawmakers voted against the overhaul law, which came in response to the 2008 financial crisis.[dmc-related-post-wp numitems="3″ title="Also read"]
The Senate Banking Committee is holding a hearing Tuesday at which two key regulators will be asked about the trading loss at JPMorgan, the only major U.S. bank to stay profitable during the crisis.
Mary Schapiro, chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission, has said that her agency, like all regulators, is "focused" on the JPMorgan situation. The SEC is examining the bank's disclosures to shareholders about the trading loss.
The loss was disclosed May 10 by JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon in a hastily convened conference call with investors and journalists. Dimon in April had dismissed concerns about the bank's trading as a "tempest in a teapot" — a characterization he recently acknowledged he had been "dead wrong" to make.
Gary Gensler, who heads the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, said Monday that agency has begun an investigation into JPMorgan's ill-timed bet on complex financial instruments that led to the trading loss. Gensler said the inquiry is "related to credit derivatives products as traded by the chief investment office of JPMorgan Chase." He declined to give any details.
Ina Drew, who was the bank's chief investment officer and oversaw the trading group responsible for the loss, left JPMorgan last week.
Under the financial overhaul, the CFTC gained powers to monitor trading in indexes of derivatives. JPMorgan invested heavily in an index of insurance-like products that protect against default by bond issuers. Hedge funds were betting that the index would lose value, forcing JPMorgan to sell investments at a loss.
JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon has said the loss came from trading in credit derivatives that was designed to hedge against financial risk, not to make a profit for the bank.
The Banking Committee chairman, Sen. Tim Johnson, D-S.D., has said he is inviting Dimon to testify about the loss at a related hearing in the near future.
Dimon last week apologized to the bank's shareholders. He said Monday that JPMorgan is suspending plans to buy back its own stock. The bank will continue to pay a dividend despite the trading loss, which Dimon called "an embarrassment" and "a black mark."
The trading loss didn't cause anything close to the panic that followed the September 2008 failure of the Lehman Brothers investment bank. But it shook the confidence of the financial industry. JPMorgan's stock price has dropped 20 percent since the disclosure, lopping off $30 billion of market value.
It isn't known whether the JPMorgan episode ultimately will result in stricter regulation.
It has recharged a debate about how to ensure that banks are strong and competitive without allowing them to become so big and complex that they threaten the financial system when they falter. Does the massive trading misfire at JPMorgan — widely seen as one of the safest banks — show that Wall Street banks have become "too big to fail" as well as "too big to manage?"
The loss also put a fresh spotlight on a part of the overhaul law known as the Volcker rule, which is designed to prevent banks from placing bets for their own profit. This is known as proprietary trading. The idea is to protect depositors' money, which is insured by the government. If a bank's losses were to wipe out those deposits, taxpayer money would have to be tapped.
Regulators are finalizing the Volcker rule. Dimon has been among its most vocal critics. The big Wall Street banks won an exemption in the rule: It would let them make such trades to hedge not only the risks of individual investments but also the risks of a broader investment portfolio.
