Le Méridien Mahabaleshwar Resort & Spa
Local Area
Meaning "God of Great Power" in Sanskrit, picturesque Mahabaleshwar is a small hill station situated in the Indian state of Maharashtra. Located approximately 120 kilometres southwest of Pune and 265 kilometres from Mumbai, Mahabaleshwar is bordered by verdant valleys on all sides. Surrounded by the rare evergreen forests of the Western Ghats, Le Méridien Mahabaleshwar Resort & Spa enjoys a unique atmosphere of unhurried relaxation.
Dating back to 1215, Mahabaleshwar enjoys a rich cultural heritage as an important pilgrimage site for Hindus. During the British Raj of the early twentieth century, the city acted as the summer capital of Bombay province. Today, it serves to delight visitors with a unique a mix of old world charm and spectacular natural beauty.
The area is beloved for its many temples. We recommend hiring a rickshaw to explore historical treasures such as the Krishnabai temple, known as the source of River Krishna. The Panchganga temple commemorates the convergence of five rivers—Koyna, Krishna, Venna, Savitri and Gayatri. Not to be missed, the iconic Mahabaleshwar temple is dedicated to Lord Shiva. On the grounds you will find 500-year-old lingam, while the temple interiors feature artifacts such as Lord Shiva's 300-year-old trishul, rudraksha, and damru.
Further historical landmarks can be found at Mount Malcolm, the Mahabaleshwar Club, and Moraji Castle. Explore the pride of the Maratha Empire—the Pratapgad Fort. Built in 1656, it is located just 24 kilometres outside of town.
For breathtaking views over the hill range around Mahabaleshwar, visit one of the lookout points such as Wilson Point, Arthur's Seat, Baghdad Point, or Bombay Point. Discover beautiful scenery and fascinating wildlife with a trek or horseback ride through the mountains and witness the many unusual species of indigenous birds. Experience the impressive spectacle of Lingmala Falls, Chinaman's Falls, or Dhobi Falls. Vena Lake is a popular destination for the whole family. Visitors may take a boat ride, go fishing or horseback riding, and more.
Mahabaleshwar is also the strawberry capital of India, with many farms spread across the region. Gourmands will delight in the local gastronomy, including chikki, a traditional Indian sweet made with jaggery and nuts.

Tearfully delightful; so full of the feelings and pathos of Motherhood! He will indeed understand it sooner than you think; you so enjoy your minutes, hours, days…and now he is SIX. It can seem so very old after babyhood; and yet the beginning of that childhood journey. Such love to both of you!

I recently had a baby and my wedding band does not fit me. I wanted something inexpensive to wear till my band fits again. This is perfect. It looks great! It is a great size. It is so comfortable I do not even know it is there. I have had no trouble with it and I am rough on my rings. Love it!
This is a high quality ring. This ring is not hollowed out. Hollowed out rings tend to leave indentations on your finger.The sizing is accurate. In addition, the ring is smooth. Not shoddy workmanship here. Have received compliments and people cannot believe how little it costs.
- How did the image on site compare with the actual product? Exactly as pictured
- How accurate was the sizing? Very accurate
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Good workmanship
Was looking for a simple sterling silver band to wear on the middle finger of my right hand. This ring compliments rings I tend to wear on my right ring finger. The sizing was perfect, as well. Just right for me!
- Did the image onsite match the product? Yes
- Did the product fit true to size? Yes
- How is the quality of the product? Very Good
I have been wearing this ring regularly for 9 months now. VERY comfortable, looks great- great for the price. I was very pleased.
- How did the image on site compare with the actual product? Very good
- How accurate was the sizing? perfect
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Great
I bought this ring to wear as a temporary wedding ring during my pregnancy (as my ring is too tight now). It looks ok, but there is a noticable line through the ring where they welded the two ends together to make a circle. You usually can't see the seam in a round ring, but in this one, you can. If you just need this for a few months or a one time occasion, it works and the price was right!
- How did the image on site compare with the actual product? Similar, but poor craftmanship
- How accurate was the sizing? accurate
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. average
Simple, inexpensive ring. I didn't expect the world, but it's smooth, comfortable, low profile, and well finished. Exactly what I was looking for.
- How did the image on site compare with the actual product? The ring was less flawed / dinged than I expected based on the picture.
- How accurate was the sizing? Very
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Solid
I purchased this ring for a temporary wedding band for my wedding elopement next month. Will be using it for our ceremony/honeymoon whilst paying off my other ring. Thanks O.com, Shipping was very fast...I was excited to get it in the mail today!
- Did the image onsite match the product? yes
Received this ring quickly after ordering and have been very pleased. Very shiny and nice width - thin enough to seem feminie, but wide enough not to look cheap or flimsy - very classy. Great ring and great price!
The ring is exactly what In wanted. Good solid ring that shines. Great buy for the money.
The ring is exactly as described. I'm completely satisfied.
This is a very sturdy ring. Nice and heavy. Fit is so comfortable. I need to buy a couple more...lol
Looks great with my solitare. Fits true to size and nice and shiney. Great little ring.
just nice ring, nothing special, but quality is good. and the size was correct, so thank you Overstock for that
Thin banded ring - perfect simple touch on my petite hand! This ring was exactly what I was looking for. Yes, it bends easily....it is SILVER. Very comfortable on the finger. You don't even feel it. Great buy for the money!
I wanted a toe ring and couldn't find what I wanted in any store. I was shopping the O and seen this nice little band. It is perfect (but you do have to know what size to order!) the Sterling is bright and polished and is the perfect width. I love it!
I bought this ring as a fill in when my regular ring would not fit. It is so comfortable I forget I am wearing it. The only thing negative I would say is it does scratch easily, but you can't even tell unless you are close up.
I shopped extensively for a sterling siver ring and wasn't having any luck until I saw this ring in Overstock. I just love it! It more an meets my expectations!
I buy sterling silver rings from overstock every Christmas for my daughters. The quality and selection are great. Shipping is very fast. I have recommended you to others.
It is a fine silver ring. Very nice quality. Perfect finish.
This was a great buy. Its very lightweight and you barely know its there. I would definitely recommend it to anyone.

Excellent doctor, excellent staff. I've gone there for years. I wouldn't go anywhere else.
I have been seeing Dr. Ross for almost 20 years, and she is easily the best doctor in every respect I have ever had in my life. Besides being very knowledgeable in her field, she has fantastic inter-personal skills, does not talk down to her patients, is a very warm and caring person. In many years of dealing with severe chronic bronchitis due to smoking that sometimes mimicked asthma (thankfully gone since I quit 4 years ago!), I truly believe she may have saved my life. In my experience, most general care or internist doctors know VERY little about breathing issues, especially the proper medications needed to treat them. I know that she would be an great doctor with children too.
Dr. Ross is an excellent Dr.
Dr. Brandon Ross is Knowledgeable, personable, kind, & patient oriented. My family's asthma/allergy Dr. for life.
Dr. Brandon Ross is caring, brilliant, professional, and knowledgeable. She has assisted me in many situations at work involving allergic responses. She is a true gift from God to her profession!
Dr. Ross is a competent, caring, dynamic physician. As a chemically-sensitive teacher, I don't know what I would have done without her. Don't hesitate to call this gifted allergist, as you could be feeling better right now! She is a brilliant woman who also has children: she is great with pediatric allergy. God bless this wonderful woman!

DUBAI: Bahrain said yesterday it would drop charges against 343 people whose offences were linked to free speech, but the opposition said that was just a portion of those detained on such accusations during pro-democracy protests this year.
The country, under pressure to improve its rights record to secure a US arms deal, has said it would follow the recommendations of a state-appointed commission which found evidence of widespread abuse in the crackdown against the protests by majority Shia Muslims.
The measure, part of a review of action by military courts set up after Bahrain announced martial law in March, applies to 43 cases and 343 defendants, public prosecutor Ali Al Buainain told the state news agency BNA.
"However, other cases will remain pending because they involve crimes of violence and sabotage against people and property," Buainain said. An official at the opposition group, Wefaq, said about 85 percent of the cases it studied were linked to freedom of speech and assembly. "Of the 1,200 cases we have reported about, 1,000 include charges such as illegal assembly, spreading false news and spreading hatered of the regime," said Matar Matar, a former parliament member for Wefaq.

Joseph Müller (priest)
Joseph Müller (19 August 1894 – 11 September 1944) was a German Catholic priest and critic of the Nazi regime.
He was born in Salmünster in Hessen. He was the youngest of seven children of a teacher Damien and his wife Augusta. Two of his brothers also became Roman Catholic priests. After repeating a political joke, he was arrested and sentenced to death by the Volksgerichtshof in Berlin. He was executed by guillotine in Brandenburg-Görden Prison.
According to the 2007 documentary Laughing with Hitler, the joke was about a soldier on his deathbed, who asked to see the people for whom he was laying down his life. A portrait of the Führer was laid on his one side, a portrait of Göring on the other. Then, he gasped: "Now I can die like Jesus Christ, between two criminals."
Each year on the anniversary of death, a bell is tolled at his former parish church in the village of Groß Düngen.
On May 2016, the Roman Catholic Diocese of Hildesheim opened his cause of martyrdom, earning him the title Servant of God.[1][2]

Housing minister visits PRS housing development
Published by Anonymous for 24dash.com in Housing and also in Central Government, Development
Kris Hopkins
The housing minister has visited some of the first homes in the country being built especially for the private rent sector.
With the government deciding to back the PRS as a major contributor of new homes to meet the UK's housing shortage, Kris Hopkins MP saw developer Willmott Dixon's work on 233 PRS homes as part of the 1,176-home renewal of the Aberfeldy estate in Tower Hamlets.
Hopkins said: "I'm pleased to have been able to visit Aberfeldy Village and see for myself how this area of East London is being transformed by this new investment. I look forward to returning to this site and meeting people who've moved into these new homes to rent, and seeing how this community develops further."
The multi-phase, 10-year regeneration of Aberfeldy is being carried out by Willmott Dixon in joint venture with housing association Poplar HARCA, and will deliver homes for private sale and affordable rent alongside the PRS element. Phase one, being created now, is for 338 homes, which include 105 for open market sale, with phases two and three to start on site over the next 18 months.
Canal regeneration unlocks land for 500 homes

Trindon Holliday returned a kickoff 98 yards for a touchdown and LSU forced two turnovers during goal-line stands Saturday as the top-ranked Tigers slipped past Mississippi 41-24.
The Tigers are now 10-1 overall, and 6-1 in the Southeastern Conference. Ole Miss is 3-8 and 0-7.
LSU didn't play especially well on offense.
But Craig Steltz and the nations' top-ranked defense helped them earn their first outright Southeastern Conference Western Division title and set a school record with three consecutive seasons of 10 wins or more.
It was LSU's fourth straight win and the sixth straight against Ole Miss, which is in danger of a winless conference season for the first time since 1982. The Rebels are now 0-6 against top-ranked teams.
Steltz had rally-ending interceptions late in each half, and Jacob Hester and Charles Scott each rushed for touchdowns after failed Ole Miss onside kicks in the fourth quarter to ensure the win. Colt David added second-half field goals of 48 and 43 yards as well.
