About Edinburgh, United Kingdom
[Edinburgh] (Gaelic: Dùn Èideann) is the capital of Scotland located in the Central Belt region of the country. With a population of approximately 450,000 (1 million in the city region), "Auld Reekie" (Edinburgh) manages to combine both ancient and modern in a uniquely Scottish atmosphere. Watched over by the imposing Edinburgh castle, the symbol of the city, Edinburgh combines medieval relics, Georgian grandeur and a powerful layer of modern life with contemporary avant-garde. In Edinburgh, medieval palaces, evident throughout the New Town which is painted with Gothic churches and fascinating historical buildings, rub shoulders with the best of modern architecture, such as the Houses of Scottish Parliament, found in Hollyrood, and the recently renovated National Museum of Scotland. Scotland's throbbing night-life centre, Edinburgh, "the Athens of the North", is also a feast for the mind and the senses, playing host to great restaurants, shops, friendly pubs, wild and mild clubs, and an unrivalled programme of city festivals throughout the year. Hogmanay, the Scottish New Year, kicks off the festivities, which culminate in the high summer with the Tattoo, the International and the famous 'Fringe' festival, among many others.
The Old and New Towns of Edinburgh were listed as World Heritage Sites by UNESCO in 1995. In 2004, Edinburgh became the first member of the UNESCO Creative Cities initiative when it was designated a City of Literature.
In a 2009 poll by YouGov, Edinburgh was voted the most desirable city to live in the UK.
Edinburgh is on the east coast of Scotland's central Lowlands, situated on the southern shore of the Firth of Forth. Edinburgh's landscape is the product of ancient volcanism (both the Castle crag and Arthur's Seat are the eroded plugs of volcanoes) and more recent glaciation (carving out valleys south of the castle and the old Nor'Loch, presently the site of the Princes Street Gardens). Impress the locals by knowing that Princes Street is the correct spelling (dedicated plurally and not possessively for King George III's sons - hence the absence of an apostrophe). Don't make the mistake of pronouncing it Princess Street - though many of the locals won't know the difference! And watch out for these two commonly mis-pronounced streets as well: Cockburn (coe-burn) and Buccleuch (buh-clue) are nearly always gotten wrong, to the amusement of the locals.
Edinburgh's historic centre is bisected by Princes Street Gardens, a broad swathe of parkland in the heart of the city. Southwards of the gardens is the castle, perched on top of an extinct volcanic crag, and flanked by the medieval streets of the Old Town following the Royal Mile along the ridge to the east. To the north of Princes Street Gardens lies Princes Street itself - Edinburgh's main shopping boulevard - and the Georgian period New Town, built after 1766 on a regular grid plan.
Edinburgh has been the royal capital of Scotland since 1437.
Edinburgh is noted as a long-lived literary capital of the English-speaking world.
The great Scottish historical novelist Sir Walter Scott was born in the city and has his great monument on Princes Street. Robert Louis Stevenson and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle were also natives of Edinburgh.
More recently, Edinburgh has variously been the home and inspiration for such well-known modern writers as Muriel Spark (author of The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie), Irvine Welsh (author of the 1993 novel Trainspotting, set in the gritty district of Leith), Ian Rankin (a crime writer best known for the Inspector Rebus series, set in Edinburgh), Alexander McCall Smith ( The No. 1 Lady Detective's Agency and several novels set in the Scottish capital) and J.K. Rowling of Harry Potter fame.
Edinburgh's climate is most comfortable for the traveler from May to September. That said, the weather in Edinburgh is always changeable and visitors should expect both sunshine and rain, whatever the season. Edinburgh tends to get windy while it rains as well, so be sure to pack either a raincoat or a sturdy umbrella! Many a tourist has abandoned an inverted umbrella due to the persistent, whipping winds. Summer, the main festival season, combines long daylight hours with lengthy evenings (being so far north, it rarely gets dark before 10 or 11 at night!). Winter can feel bitterly cold, with short daylight hours, however snow is rare and of a short duration, and most of Edinburgh's winter precipitation comes in the form of a chilly rain and sleet. Edinburgh has an abundance of indoor attractions and activities that make the cold winter days fly by. In other words, bring a coat big lad, will ya?
Do not worry about being cold in winter, because like many modern countries all buildings including the old ones are warm, dry and insulated.
When to go
Travellers should note that Edinburgh becomes overwhelmingly crowded (accommodation-wise) during the main festival periods of high summer (August to early September) and Hogmanay (around New Year's Day / 1 January). Visitors at these times should plan well ahead for booking central accommodation and event tickets at these times.
Get in
By plane
[Edinburgh International Airport] (IATA:EDI), the busiest airport in Scotland, is situated some 10 miles west of the city. The airport offers a wide range of domestic and international flights to Europe and North America. Many visitors to the city arrive via a connecting flight from London. Edinburgh Airport does, however, have a direct flight to and from Newark (UNITED, Twice daily May–October, Daily November–May), a 25 minute train ride or drive from New York City. In comparison to most Scottish airports, Edinburgh's European flight network is well developed, with frequent scheduled flights to destinations such as Amsterdam, Athens, Barcelona, Brussels, Budapest, Copenhagen, Dublin, Frankfurt, Geneva, Helsinki, Istanbul, Madrid, Milan, Munich, Oslo, Paris, Prague, Rome, Stockholm and Zürich. For a full list of destinations served to/from Edinburgh Airport see [http://www.edinburghairport.com/flight-information/destinations-and-airlines].
A dedicated airport bus service, [Airlink Express], service 100, runs from outside the terminal building to Edinburgh city centre (Waverley Bridge) at least every 10 minutes until 00.32. The bus leaves from Waverley Bridge (opposite entrance to train station) for the Airport at the same intervals 24/7. Adult fares are £4.00 for a single, £7.00 for an open return and the journey takes an average 25 mins. The buses offer free wi-fi connection, sockets for charging electrical equipment, CCTV allowing top-deck passengers to monitor their luggage, and electronic "next-stop" information. The Airlink buses have a dedicated blue livery which makes them easy to distinguish from the rest of the Lothian fleet. The Airlink bus does not run between midnight and 04.30, instead the airport is served by the N22 route which runs every 30 minutes, but takes a slightly different route into town, costing £3.00 single.
A cheaper alternative is the ordinary Lothian Buses service 35 [http://lothianbuses.com/find-your-bus/timetables/819-service-35.html], which runs from the bus stance outside the arrivals building to Ocean Terminal via the Royal Mile/High Street. Although much slower (about 1h30) and with less provision for baggage than the 100, it is far cheaper at £1.50 a single and also allows the use of day tickets (£3.50) and other options that work on all Lothian Buses services, a great option for getting straight to the city if travelling lightly or on a budget.
After 31 May 2014 the new [tram] will link the airport with the city centre, passing Edinburgh Park railway station. It is likely that bus services for the airport will be changed as a result during summer 2014.
By train
Wikivoyage has a guide to Rail travel in the United Kingdom
The main railway station in Edinburgh is called [Waverley Railway Station] and is an attraction in itself. First opened in 1846, Waverley Station was rebuilt 1892-1902. It lies between the Old and New Towns, adjacent to Princes Street, Edinburgh Castle and the Princes Street Gardens, where it serves over 14 million people per annum. Despite various refurbishments, the past still survives in the station's elaborate, domed ceiling where wreathed cherubs leap amid a wealth of scrolled ironwork.
Waverley Station is a major hub for the Scottish rail network, operated by First Scotrail [http://www.firstscotrail.co.uk/]. There is an hourly service to Dundee and Aberdeen, and two hourly to Inverness. Shuttle trains to Glasgow (Queen Street) run every 15 minutes throughout the day, dropping to 30 minutes on evenings and Sundays, and the journey takes 45–50 minutes. There are also services which operate via Bathgate and Airdrie to Glasgow Queen Street Low Level at a 15 minute interval. Stopping patterns differ on this route, meaning that every half hour, the service takes approx. 1 hour whereas every other half hour services take around 1 hour 15 minutes to complete the journey. Some services run to Glasgow Central instead, but run via Lanarkshire with many more stops. Certain CrossCountry trains originating from Birmingham and the south west also continue to Glasgow Central - again your ticket will be valid on these services but the journey will take slightly longer than the shuttle.
The vast majority of train services to Edinburgh from London (and most of eastern England) are operated by East Coast (which replaced National Express on 14 November 2009) [http://www.eastcoast.co.uk/]; an hourly service leaves from London Kings Cross station throughout the day until 6PM. Journey time is between 4hrs 20min and 5 hours. The cheapest tickets (£16 to £90) are advance single (one-way) fares for a fixed train time bought 2–12 weeks in advance, and the flexible Saver Ticket (roughly £100 single or return) is not valid at some times to/from London. Virgin Trains [http://www.virgintrains.co.uk] operate a 2 hourly service from Birmingham New Street via the West Coast Mainline with an average journey time of 4hrs 4 mins.
For a different travel experience from London, try the Caledonian Sleeper service [http://www.firstgroup.com/scotrail/content/caledoniansleeper/], which runs every night from London's Euston Station except Saturdays, and the journey takes approximately 8 hours. Bear in mind that if you are travelling alone you may have to share the sleeping compartment with a stranger of the same sex. Tickets can be booked in the usual manner at any main line railway station in Britain, and the cost of a return journey to Edinburgh from London varies from around £100 for two one-way "Advance" tickets rising to the full open return fare of £165. You can also travel for around £23 one-way in a seated carriage or £95 return (full fare). BritRail passes can be used to reserve tickets on the sleeper trains.
However, heavily discounted one-way tickets on the Caledonian Sleeper known as "Bargain Berths" are available for £19, £29, £39 or £49 depending on how early you book, but, confusingly, these cannot be bought from a railway station in the normal way but only from the First ScotRail website, and you will be emailed an e-ticket (similar to an airline), which you must print out and show to the conductor at the platform before getting on the train.
Trains to other English cities are operated by Arriva Cross Country (services via York, Birmingham and central England to the south coast and West Country) and Trans-Pennine Express (services to Manchester via Carlisle) from Waverley.
The "charged by the piece" left luggage service at Waverley railway station is much more expensive (£7 per item for 0–24 hours!) than the lockers a few blocks away at the Edinburgh bus station on St. Andrew's Square.
There is a second railway station in the centre of Edinburgh, Haymarket, around a mile to the west of Waverley. If you are arriving from the north, west or southwest, Haymarket is a better station to exit at if you are heading straight for the airport, zoo, or modern art gallery or if your accommodation is on the west side of town as you will avoid the city centre traffic, and it is on the major westbound bus routes.
Both Waverley and Haymarket stations had ticket barriers installed in 2004 so you will need to purchase a ticket in order to enter or leave the platform area. If you get on a train at an unmanned station, you can purchase a ticket from the conductor on the train or a ticket inspector near the barrier gates: note that there is usually a long queue during the peak rush hour period. The barrier gates will retain single journey tickets so be sure to get a receipt if you need one. If you have the larger kind of ticket that does not fit in the barrier, you will need to go to the gate manned by a member of staff who will check your ticket and let you through. If you do not have a ticket, you will need to go to the ticket office behind the barrier (platform 14 at Waverley) to buy one.
Edinburgh Park is a new train station that opened in 2004, which is some way from the city centre, serves business parks and "The Gyle" shopping centre. As of December 2010, direct trains to and from Glasgow Queen Street Low Level began to serve Edinburgh Park, on the Airdrie-Bathgate route (or A2B) operating on a 15 minute interval. There services will take around an hour to get to Glasgow from Edinburgh Park.
By road
By road, Edinburgh can be reached most immediately by the M8 motorway (from Glasgow and the west), M9 (from Stirling and the north-west), A90/M90 (from Perth, Dundee and northern Scotland), the A1 (from Newcastle upon Tyne and north-east England) and A702/M74 (from Carlisle and north-western England).
From London the fastest route to Edinburgh is the M1 motorway, followed by the A1(M) and the A1 - a journey of 640 km (398 mi) and approximately 8-9 hrs driving time.
Edinburgh is not a particularly car friendly city (the worst city to drive in outside of London in the UK) with the myriad of one-way streets and the Old Town's medieval layout, and the dedication of parking wardens to ticketing anything that is not moving is legendary. Finding parking can be difficult, though there are several multi-storey car parks in the city centre (Castle Terrace for the West End, try St James Centre or Greenside at the East End). If visiting for the day, it is often cheaper and quicker to use the new Park and Ride systems now in place on all approaches to the City, (National Park and Ride Directory is available online [http://www.parkandride.net/edinburgh/edinburgh_frameset.shtml]), so it's even easy to just abandon your car on the outskirts. For visitors arriving from the M8, follow directions for Edinburgh Airport to reach Ingliston Park and Ride; this facility is half a mile from the airport terminal.
By bus
The city is served by the major inter-city bus companies from around Scotland and England. Most long distance services start and end in the Bus Station in St Andrew Square. The left luggage lockers at the Bus station are much cheaper than the "charged by the piece" left luggage service at Waverley railway station.
By boat
- A ferry/bus service from Belfast to Edinburgh can be booked through Citylink [http://www.citylink.co.uk/].
- Passenger cruise liners are a common sight in summer at Leith Docks, where a new terminal has been built next to the Ocean Terminal shopping/leisure complex.
Get around
Edinburgh is a compact city - most of the sights and major tourist attractions are within the Old Town (mainly around castle and Royal Mile) and New Town and are no further than a 15 minute walk apart. Walking along elegant or atmospheric streets is one of the pleasures of the city. There are however, a number of hills to be navigated; for example from Princes Street, up The Mound towards Edinburgh Castle requires some significant legwork, but it's worth it for the views en route.
The city's public transport system is heavily reliant on buses, which have to navigate the city's sometimes bustling traffic. Despite this they run late into the night, with a vast number of routes offering frequent and cheap transport around the city. Equally, the suburban railway network is very sparse compared to that of Glasgow, although there have been some slow and steady improvements over the years. On 31 May 2014 trams will begin services between the city centre and the airport.
By bus
Edinburgh has two main bus companies, [Lothian Buses], which is majority-owned by Edinburgh City Council, and [First], a private operator. These two companies share the same bus stops, but the route numbers and tickets are not interchangeable and they operate different fare structures.
Lothian Buses is the largest operator in the city and its distinctive burgundy and cream coloured buses have become as much a symbol of Edinburgh as its buildings. Many routes have different coloured buses, which can help to identify at a glance which bus is approaching.
Tickets for travel can be purchased on the bus and the exact change is required as no change is given. A [wide range of tickets] can also be purchased at Lothian Buses travel shops (Waverley Bridge, Hanover Street or Dalkeith town centre) and [online] including, booklets of 20 ticket and scratch card day tickets. Single tickets for Lothian Buses are £1.50 (70p for under 16s) and are valid for one journey only, irrespective of distance. If you have to change bus, you must buy another ticket.
More conveniently, Lothian Buses offer an all-day ticket for £3.50 (as of March 2012) that covers all transport (except sightseeing, airport express and night services). The all-day ticket is a great way to see the city without the expense of the tour buses, as you can get on and off all Lothian buses for the whole day. Kids' day tickets are generously discounted to £2. You can buy these from any bus driver, from Lothian Buses offices or from Lothian Buses on-line store.
Lothian Buses are in the process of rolling out their [BusTracker] service. This provides "real time" bus service information. Electronic signs are being installed along major routes, showing the wait time for the next bus on each service at that stop. Online, it's possible to view the information for every bus stop in the city, not just those stops with electronic signs. Every stop has a unique eight-figure code, which are listed on the website and also displayed at the stop. You can access Bus Tracker via a mobile phone at mobile.mybustracker.co.uk. A free apps named "Edinbus" for iPhone and "My Bus Edinburgh" for Android provide similar information with route maps and a stop locator.
[First] buses mostly service farther-flung areas to the east and west of the city.
Edinburgh Coach Lines operate [service 13], a bus of use to many visitors as it is the only route serving the National Gallery of Modern Art and the Dean Gallery. Single tickets are in line with Lothian fares at £1.50 for adults and 70p for children (under 16). Lothian Buses season tickets and day tickets are not valid on service 13.
Lothian buses that operate [sightseeing buses] in several different brandings. All have a policy that a sightseeing ticket is valid for 24 hours, so you can get around central Edinburgh quite handily using the sightseeing buses. Each sightseeing bus follows a different route around the city, but they all start and finish at Waverley Bridge, adjacent to Waverley Station on Princes Street.
By train
A small number of suburban rail routes run from Waverley station, most of the stations lying in the south west and south east suburbs of the city, and are useful for reaching the outer suburbs and towns of Balerno, Currie, Wester Hailes, Wallyford, Prestonpans, Musselburgh, South Queensferry, Newcraighall and a useful link to Edinburgh Park which is adjacent to the Gyle shopping complex. Services to North Berwick, Bathgate, Fife or Glasgow Central will make stops at these various stations. Note that standard National Rail fares apply to these trains - there are no credible daily season ticket options available. Check at the station before you board!
The "charged by the piece" left luggage service at Waverly train station is far more expensive than the storage lockers a few blocks away at the Bus station on St Andrew's square.
By car
Central Edinburgh is a nightmare to drive in, particularly the Old Town with its tangle of medieval streets with their associated one way systems. The New Town fares slightly better, but the scourge "Blue Meanies" who mercilessly swoop on vehicles which may have only been illegally parked for a matter of minutes. Edinburgh operates a "controlled parking zone" - on-street parking is illegal within a large central area (see map [http://www.edinburgh.gov.uk/internet/Transport/Parking/Parking_permits/CEC_controlled_parking_zone__cpz__map]) without a residents parking permit. Parking fines are £40 and vehicles parked in an obstructive manner are liable to be towed away with a £150 release fee to be paid for its retrieval. Even the suburbs (especially Morningside, The Grange, The Meadows) have little parking available (and on-street parking is illegal within the controlled parking zone). Take a bus and/or walk. Leith seems to fare a bit better for parking, but there's no guarantee. Park and Ride facilities provide access to the city centre [http://www.parkandride.net/edinburgh/edinburgh_frameset.shtml]. Driver should beware of trams being tested on the new tracks.
By foot
Edinburgh is a beautiful city that's full of history. There is no better way to see it than to walk, though it should be noted that this is not for the faint hearted as they city consists of many steep hills.
- Edinburgh walking directions [http://www.walkit.com/edinburgh/] can be planned online with the walkit.com walking route planner.
By tram
A single [tram line] has recently been built which links St Andrew's Square in the centre of Edinburgh to Edinburgh Airport on the west, passing through the New Town along Princes Street. Between Haymarket station and the airport the tram runs on an off road track, but runs on the road between Haymarket and St Andrew's Square. This was due to be finished by 2012, but disputes with the main construction contractor and delays in construction mean that the first passenger carrying trams will run on 31 May 2014. Currently trams are making test runs. As it will link the airport, rugby stadium, both main train stations and Princes Street it may be helpful for some visitors to the city. However buses are likely to remain the main and most practical method of public transport in Edinburgh for the foreseeable future.
By taxi
Like most major British cities, Edinburgh offers a choice between Black Cabs, carrying up to 5 passengers, which can be hailed on the street, and minicabs, which must be pre-booked. Black cabs display an orange light above the windscreen to indicate that they are available to hire. It's usually quite easy to find a cab in and around the city centre, and on the main radial routes running out of the centre. There are also Taxi Ranks dotted around the city, where black cabs will line up to be hired. Taxi Rank locations include:
- Outside the main entrances of Haymarket and Waverley train stations.
- Opposite the Caledonian Hotel and Sheraton Hotel (both near the West End), The George Hotel (east end of George Street) and the Crowne Plaza Hotel (High Street, Royal Mile).
- St Patrick's Square, off South Bridge
- Leith Bridge, close to The Shore and Commercial Quay, in Leith
The main taxi firms operating within the city are:
- Central Radio Taxis (Black Cabs) - +44 131 229 2468
- City Cabs (Black Cabs) - +44 131 228 1211
- Edinburgh Taxi (minicabs) - +44 131 610 1234 (saloon cars, MPV's with 8 seats and chauffeur driven vehicles)
- Festival Cars (minicabs - mostly saloon cars but also have people carriers with up to 8 seats. Let them know the number in your party when you book) - +44 131 552 1777
For the budget-conscious and/or avid sightseer, the [Edinburgh Pass] is well worth bearing in mind, offering a maximum of £155 worth of entry to 27 of Edinburgh's top attractions, a 90-page guidebook, retail and restaurant offers and discounts. All this, as well as free public transport around the city and airport transfers. A one-day pass costs £30, two days £40, three days £50 (2013 prices). Can be purchased online or at Tourist Information Centres.
If you are staying in Scotland a little while, it might be worth getting a [Historic Scotland Membership]. Passes last for a year, and cost about £40 for adults and £30 for concessions (including full-time students). They provide unlimited access to about 70 paying sites in Scotland, including Edinburgh's Castle and Craigmillar Castle. You also get a lot of discounts for their shops, a quarterly magazine, and 50% off all English, Welsh and Manx historical sites.
- Edinburgh Doors Open Day
Is an annual event, co-ordinated by the Cockburn Association, where many important and/or historic buildings across the city open up their doors to the public at no charge. Many of the buildings are not normally accessible so this can present a unique opportunity to see some of the city's lesser-known architectural marvels. It usually takes place on the last weekend in September. Brochures with details of the participating sites, opening times, access details etc., can be picked up from city libraries in the run up to the day, or downloaded from the website.
Museum and galleries
- There are a number of independent galleries in the St Stephen Street and Dundas Street area of Stockbridge
Refer to the district articles for listings.
- Walk along the Water of Leith, a small river that meanders through Edinburgh, providing a peaceful haven from the busy city. Check out the Leith or Stockbridge and Canonmills sections of the route.
- Edinburgh has an excellent theatre and concert life. Europe's largest theatre, the 3000-seat Edinburgh Playhouse (top of Leith Walk, New Town) hosts major West End shows. The Festival Theatre ( Old Town) frequently hosts opera and ballet, and the Usher Hall (Lothian Road) has weekly orchestral concerts all year round with the Royal Scottish National Orchestra. The Queen's Hall (South Clerk Street, ( Old Town) is home to the Scottish Chamber Orchestra. For a cheaper option, the excellent Bedlam Theatre (Bristo Place, Old Town) regularly puts on good student theatre and is the home to Scotland's oldest improvised comedy troupe, The Improverts.
- Experience traditional Folk Music at one of the pubs in the Old Town or Leith which host regular sessions.
Edinburgh in the summer becomes "festival city" when a huge number of major national and international arts festivals are hosted by the city. Most of these occur virtually simultaneously in August. These cater for a wide variety of interests and include:
- The [Edinburgh International Festival]— The original that spawned all the rest. Founded in 1947 and still seen as more "high-brow" than any of its offspring. Surprisingly, tickets are often priced more reasonably than for many Fringe shows.
- The [Edinburgh Military Tattoo]— One of the iconic images of Edinburgh for millions worldwide is the yearly Tattoo, kilted pipers skirling below the battlements of Edinburgh Castle. Although tickets sell out well in advance, persevering individuals are likely to find one or two tickets still for sale due to cancellations... just be prepared to ask, ask, and ask again!
- The [Edge Festival] (formerly known as "T on the Fringe")— Music festival which takes place alongside the Fringe Festival.
- The [Edinburgh International Book Festival]— Takes place in a temporary village of marquees at Charlotte Square (West End of George Street, New Town).
- The [Edinburgh International Film Festival]— Now moved to June from its former slot in August, so that it no longer clashes with all the others! Centred around the Filmhouse Cinema on Lothian Road, though other cinemas take part too.
- The [Edinburgh International Television Festival]— Predominantly a "closed shop" for industry professionals only.
- The [Edinburgh Mela]— Multicultural festival held in Leith.
One important thing to decide when planning a trip to Edinburgh is whether you wish to go at festival time, which runs from early August through to mid-September. Hotel rooms in and around the city are noticeably much more expensive then, and you will need to book well ( at least six months!) in advance.
Edinburgh in the winter festive season is also huge with various concerts and other activities taking place starting a couple of weeks before Christmas and running up to a week into January. Princes Street Gardens play host to a Big Wheel, outdoor ice rink and various festive markets. As in most of the rest of Scotland, Hogmanay, the New Year celebrations, are the main focus of the festive season rather than Christmas. On the night itself whole sections of central Edinburgh are roped off and accessible only by ticket for the Hogmanay street party [http://www.edinburghshogmanay.org/], which takes place across several stages and is easily the largest in Scotland. Hogmany and Edinburgh fit together like hand and glove.
- Go to the cinema. Edinburgh has a number of cinemas covering mainstream, foreign language and arthouse films.
- Cameo Cinema, Home St, +44 131 228 4141. Mainstream & alternative films, in remarkable surroundings. A much-loved venue that's well worth a visit.
- Dominion, Newbattle Terrace, +44 131 447 4771. Mainstream & alternative films. One screen is full of two- and three-person leather sofas for the ultimate cinema-going experience.
- Filmhouse, Lothian Rd, +44 131 228 2688. Edinburgh's (and Scotland's) largest venue for arthouse and foreign language films. Great café and bar, and hub of the annual Film Festival.
- Odeon Cinema, Lothian Rd, +44 870 505 0007.
- Vue, Leith Walk, +44 870 240 6020. Large multiplex.
- Vue, Ocean Terminal, Leith. Large multiplex.
- See a [6 Nations Championship] rugby match at Murrayfield Stadium [http://www.scottishrugby.org/]. The 6 Nations is effectively the European Championship of rugby, taking place every spring between Scotland, Wales, Ireland, France, Italy and England. The teams play each other once per year, and alternate home and away games. In even-numbered years, England and France visit Murrayfield, while in odd-numbered years, Scotland host Wales, Ireland and Italy. On the weekend of a home match, Edinburgh is absolutely full to bursting, and the atmosphere is like nothing else, especially if Wales or Ireland are in town. If you plan to visit in February or March, be sure to check the fixtures and book accommodation well in advance if your trip coincides with a home match ( Edinburgh/West).
- Take in a football match at Heart of Midlothian FC'sTynecastle Park ( Edinburgh/West), orHibernian F.C.'s Easter Road Stadium ( Leith).
- Catch a match of the city's professional rugby club, Edinburgh Rugby, at Murrayfield ( Edinburgh/West).
- Catch an American Football match at the Edinburgh Wolves's home venue of Meadowbank Stadium ( Edinburgh/East).
- Watch diving in the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games at the Royal Commonwealth Pool.

Refer to individual district articles for detailed listings.
- Princes Street ( New Town), north of the castle, is the main shopping street in Edinburgh. It runs through the middle of the city from the train station to Lothian Road. It contains large chain stores such as HMV for music, Topshop and H&M for clothes, tourist oriented shops, and department stores.
- There are many more upmarket shops, restaurants and bars on George Street ( New Town), which runs parallel to Princes Street.
- Cockburn Street (pronounced "co-burn") in the ( Old Town) has many small alternative shops selling music, novelty toys, underground clothing, body piercings and spiritual items.
- The Royal Mile ( Old Town), especially the higher end near the castle, has many tourist-oriented shops selling Scottish souvenirs from postcards to whisky and kilts.
- Victoria Street ( Old Town) is a nice street which is well worth a visit. You can find colourful buildings and interesting boutiques which are worth having a look at.
- Victoria Street also leads onto the Grassmarket ( Old Town), a street which gives stunning views of the castle, which dominates right over it, and is also full of interesting and nice shops, as well as several pubs and restaurants. The Grassmarket is definitely well worth visiting.
- Multrees Walk (also known as The Walk), for high-end labels such as Vidal Sasoon, Armani, Vuitton, Harvey Nichols or Calvin Klein ( New Town).
- Other malls include Princes Mall or St James Mall which are both just off Princes Street, and Ocean Terminal in Leith.
- Take home a bottle of Scotland's finest export, a single malt whisky.
Edinburgh is a great city for the food lover. There is a vast selection of eateries scattered throughout every part of the city, catering for all tastes, prices and styles - from fast-food to Michelin-starred grandeur. Just be careful around the castle and in the Grassmarket area, where many restaurants are tourist traps.
Refer to the District articles for individual listings.
As well as the centre of Edinburgh, it is also worth checking out Leith and the West End when looking for a place to eat.
Rose St, running parallel to Princes St is a pedestrian precinct that has a huge number of pubs offering a variety of pub fare food.
The Scots are well known for having a penchant for fried food which has resulted in such gastronomic delights as deep fried pizza, deep fried hamburgers, deep fried Black Pudding (a type of blood sausage), deep fried haggis and deep fried Mars bars. If you're up to it, be sure to drop by a chippy (fish and chip shop) and experience these Scottish delights. Edinburgh chippys are unique in the UK for offering salt'n'sauce as standard in place of the salt'n'vinegar usually provided elsewhere in the country. The sauce is a kind of runny, vinegary version of HP or Daddys style brown sauce. Most chippys will provide vinegar on request if you prefer, but you really should try salt'n'sauce at least once!
There are establishments to suit all tastes scattered throughout every pocket of the city. Be careful, some of the more local pubs can be a little rough around the edges, especially in Leith.
For a non-alcoholic beverage give Scotland's second national drink a try - Irn-Bru . It's a great cure for hangover.
As for Scotland's first drink, you will find [The Scotch Whisky Heritage Centre] at the top of The Royal Mile, which offers an interactive "tour" of the history and practise of Whisky distilling, complete with a rather sedate barrel ride. This is a good place to go if you want to sample whisky, as they have a very large selection (200+?) at a fairly reasonable price. Older whiskys tend to cost more and the rarest on offer can cost up to £50.00 per measure! The atmosphere is less pub-like than some might like as it tends to be fairly quiet - if you don't fancy the interactive tour and just want to try some whiskys then check the listings for some good whisky pubs but in any event, the majority of Edinburgh pubs tend to have a reasonable array of Scotch whiskys on offer. The food at the Centre is reasonably priced and fairly good.
- Lots of traditional pubs are all around the city.
- Many famous traditional pubs on the Grassmarket, Old Town. These pubs are tourist traps and tend to be very popular with visiting stag and hen parties, so locals tend to keep clear.
- Lots of modern clubs are around Cowgate and Lothian road including ' Base, Gig and Diva.* George Street in the New Town hosts many of Edinburgh's trendier barsBoots (city centre branches in the New Town at St James Shopping Centre, 11 Princes St, 101-103 Princes St and 48 Shandwick Pl; in the Old Town at 40-44 North Bridge),Alliance andNumark .Tesco supermarket at 7 Broughton Road in Canonmills is quite close to the city centre and opens M-Sa 8AM-8PM and Su 10AM-5PM.Royal and Ancient'' - the ruling body of Golf.East Lothian , immediately to the east of the city, offers rolling green countryside, golden sandy beaches, dozens of golf courses, and more annual sunshine hours than any other part of the UK. The area has a number of picturesque villages and small towns, including North Berwick , with webcams at theScottish Seabird Centre giving live pictures of thousands of birds on the Bass Rock; Gullane , a mecca for golfers; Musselburgh for ice cream and horse racing; and Dunbar , a pleasant harbour town famous as the birthplace of conservationistJohn Muir . [The Museum of Flight] in East Fortune is about 30 minutes drive along the A1 towards Dunbar. It is also close toDrem station on the Edinburgh to North Berwick line. It is home to a number of historic aircraft from across the history of flight, including British Airways Concorde G-BOAA. Remember to book in advance to see inside Concorde as these tickets are generally sold out on the day. Another rather good attraction (and well worth the look) is the De-Havilland Comet 4C, a modified version of the Worlds first jetliner.West Lothian''' is the area to the west of the city. Generally less pretty than its eastern counterpart, but does have a couple of destinations worth the effort.
- Linlithgow with its Palace, and links to Mary, Queen of Scots, is a great little town for a day trip from Edinburgh. It is a short drive by car on the M9. There is also a frequent service by train from Waverley station (also stopping at Haymarket).
- Livingston— One of Scotland's New Towns, it is one of Scotland's most popular shopping spots, only a short drive from Edinburgh on the M8 or A70. Plus there are also bus and rail services to the new town.
- The Falkirk Wheel [http://www.thefalkirkwheel.co.uk/] Built in 2001 to reconnect the Forth and Clyde Canal with the Union Canal, it is the world's only rotating boat lift. Free entry to the visitor centre / cafe / gift shop. Boat trips up on the Wheel take about an hour, and cost £8 adults, £4.25 children, £6.50 concessions. Half hourly buses from Falkirk town centre, or a good walk from the Falkirk "Camelon" railway station. You can also cycle along the Union Canal from Edinburgh - the route is part of the National Cycle Network.
- The Glentress Mountain Biking Centre [http://cycling.visitscotland.com/mountain_biking/mb_centre/glentress] is the largest mountain biking centre in Scotland, and one of the best in the UK. You can hire a bike and helmet for around £20 a day. Routes are provided for cyclists of different skill levels, and are signposted so you won't get lost. You can get there on the 62 bus from Edinburgh in just over 1 hour (see Traveline Scotland [http://www.travelinescotland.com/welcome.do] for travel info).
- The Pentlands Hills Regional Park [http://www.edinburgh.gov.uk/phrp/] is a low-lying hill range to the South of Edinburgh, popular with walkers and cyclists. Getting there takes around 30 minutes on the bus, or 45 minutes by bicycle from central Edinburgh. Cyclists are allowed to take bikes on buses run by MacEwans's Coach Services [http://www.west-linton.org.uk/pdf/07_07_wl_edinburgh_bus.pdf] which stop at the Flotterstone Inn.

- National Cycle Network routes around Edinburgh [http://www.opencyclemap.org/?zoom=10&lat=55.94628&lon=-3.35925&layers=B000] Edinburgh is well connected to the NCN with a variety of places accessible within a days cycling - Glasgow, Stirling, Falkirk, Musselburgh, and Dunbar - all of which have train stations for the return journey. The number 1 route which goes south from Edinburgh to Melrose in the borders and then east to Berwick-upon-Tweed (and then back on the train) can be done in one weekend with a variety of accommodation available for an overnight stay in the historic border town of Melrose.

Forums > Hair, Makeup & Styling > Makeup Studio Lighting? (Hollywood strip lights)
Posts: 811
Washington, District of Columbia, US
I'm setting up my lil corner of our small photo studio and decided on doing the traditional strip lights around a big rectangle mirror. When I got the lightbulb part of Home Depot I realized I had NOO ideal which bulbs would be best for doing makeup. I didnt want the traditional yellow based bulbs and I have been told the Reveal lights were not the way to go. Someone gave me a suggestion for the Veralux lights but the place that had them only carried one in a clearance section and it was the small regular bulb size. It was also 8 dollars for one. I need 14!!!
Anyone know of any good resources or have any advice? I need some light asap Thanks!

OK, I know this is gonna sound far to involved, but it really works.
You need to create the closest thing to "daylight" as possible. The Veralux and Chromalux bulbs are fantastic "full spectrum" bulbs...but they really aren't full spectrum. They add a blue interior glaze to the bulb which in turn cuts some of the natural "yellow" light thrown off by a traditional incandescent bulb. They end up going to far to the blue side and really don't simultate "natural" daylight.
Here's a great formula for "strip" lighting. Alternately mix Phillips "Soft Peach" incandescent bulbs (they simulate a beautiful amber gel) with the full spectrum bulbs.
You get a perfect balance of blue & amber (not yellow) which surprisingly looks just like natural daylight.
They do the same thing in makeup trailers for Film/TV, but they use alternating fluorescent light bulbs in amber and cool blue tint.
Hope this helps.

I mixed standard bulbs with the reveal bulbs and took test shots until I had the right mix to simulate the same colors that I have with my studio lighting. Crude way to do it, but it worked.
BTW - I used three 3 light bathroom fixtures to make my light setup. I put them all together with zip cord and a switch so that I could take them down and move them if I wanted to change things around. Seems to work well!
Jun 27 06 08:07 am Link
One more followup question, if I am getting 14 bulbs (7 of each) do I need 100 watt bulbs, or will 40 or 60 do?

I used to work in a lighting shop for film, and Sylvania actually makes "daylight" bulbs that are properly tempted around 5500K. I'm pretty sure they only make them in 60 and 100w, but yeah, $8 bucks perbulb sounds about right. I'm not a big fan of the flourecents, even tho you can get daylight tubes, they dont emit as much light. Just my 2 1/2 cents.

Are make-up tables/carts with the mirror and lights around it available anywhere or do you just have to build them? I've searched high and low for any info on those things and can't find anything. Also, what is the proper term for them?

They can be made easily. I prefer candlabra or intermediate base sockets filled with frosted 12 or 17 watt "golf balls". It will look very old broadway but is a cool look if thats what you want. Another great option is a phillips linestra tube. These look like flourescents but are actually a long tungsten filiament that gives a wonderfly complimentary light. In bith cases you want to set your white balance for 3200 K or even 2800 if you want a cooler look. This also means that any strobes you use will need a full CTO filter on the (an orange 85 or equivelant). This will cause about 1 to 1 and 3/4 stops light loss, but thats better than the 2.5 stops of light lost by gelling your tungsten sources with full CTB especially considering how low the output of a tungsten lamp is in comparison with that of a xenon or metal arc source.

Despite my departure, issues have arisen that have forced me to make this post.
Recently, SlappyWiggins was blocked for telling another user to mind their own business in a post. Slappy's argument was that Mak23686 didn't understand policies. Slappy himself, on the other hand, very rudely replied to things. The other user, whose name escapes me at the moment, also had no right to barge in.
And this got me thinking: Are any of us really qualified or mature enough to run a wiki?

Question: early morning flank pain with strong odor urine
|onlinehelp - Sat Oct 29, 2005 10:51 am
Please help; when awakening in the mornings I have flank pain that goes laterally down both sides.
When I urinate my urine smells like cornflakes (seriously!!)
Sometimes this pain continues for an hour or two after getting out of bed; it is a sharp pain that increases when moving, stooping, beding or walking then it seems to get bette after being up awhild.
This pain is NOT across my lower back only laterally down both sides.
I wake up at least once every night to urinate.
What could this possibly be??
Thanks for your assistance.
|R. Zein, Pharm D - Sat Oct 29, 2005 1:44 pm
the way you describe pain, especially flank pain, with a strong smell in your urine, might be indicative of urinary tract infection.
have you visited a doctor, did you have during these symptoms, or when they started some blood in your urine, and or fever.
i suggest that you see your doctor, since your symptoms are bothersome.
thank you , and i hope you feel better
|onlinehelp - Sun Oct 30, 2005 1:12 pm
Thanks for your reply:
I do have a documented kidney stone in right K; has been there about 3 or 4 years now was told not to worry unless it started to pass which I wouldn't be able to due to the size. Was told location of it was high in the meat of the K and not to be alarmed unless it begins to pass IF it ever does.
Last time it was checked it had increased in size to approx 10-12 CM at that time and this was approx a year and a half ago.
I had liptotripsy at that time but it didn't break it or dissolve it.
I'm now curious if this might be causing the problem.
I've just recently started experiencing nausea at times with last episode last night which 15mg of Reglan didn't relieve.
I also have this knawing pain in epigastric region when I'm nausated.
Could this possibly be caused by the kidney stone or stone(s)??
Thanks for your advice!!
|R. Zein, Pharm D - Sun Oct 30, 2005 1:20 pm
THANKS for your reply
having provided extra information, yes, your kidney stone problem might be causing this flank pain, and nausea.
due to the size of your stone, it might be better to remove them. talk to your doctor, and see what he/she might recommend.
thank you, and get well soon

By Daniela Pylypczak
Although natural gas is arguably one of the most frustrating commodities on the market, trading the fossil fuel has surged in popularity in recent years. Natural gas' inherent volatility, combined with its healthy trading volume has made it quite an enticing investment tool for those investors looking for potentially lucrative returns. Natural gas is also known for being "greener" than its other fossil fuel cousins, like coal and oil, since it is relatively cleaner and produces less greenhouse gas emissions. And thanks to the rapid development of the exchange-traded fund industry, investors now have several ways to gain access to one of the most popular commodities.
Below, we outline the three most popular natural gas ETFs and which one will fit your investment objectives.
United States Natural Gas Fund (NYSEARCA:UNG)
Quick Stats (9/27/2012)
- Total Assets: $1.1 billion
- Average Daily Volume: 10.4 million
- Expense Ratio: 0.60%
- In Depth: UNG Analyst Report and ETFdb Realtime Rating
There is perhaps no natural gas ETF more popular than U.S. Commodity Funds' UNG. With just under $1.1 billion in total assets under management, this ETF is by far the largest to invest in natural gas: UNG's portfolio is more than 15x larger than the next biggest competitor. In addition to its sheer size, the fund's appeal comes from being one of the most liquid ETFs available on the market, trading over 10 million shares a day on average. Since UNG is comprised of natural gas futures contracts, however, it frequently exhibits high levels of volatility, as the commodity is known to make major swings in as little time as an hour.
UNG is right for you if: You are an active trader seeking to either speculate on natural gas' movements or quickly execute positions in the commodity.
E-TRACS Natural Gas Futures Contango ETN (NYSEARCA:GASZ)
Quick Stats (9/27/2012)
- Total Assets: $11.4 million
- Average Daily Volume: 37,000
- Expense Ratio: 0.85%
- In Depth: GASZ Analyst Report and ETFdb Realtime Rating
GASZ, which made its debut in 2011, was one of the first "Contango" exchange-traded products to hit the markets, providing investors with yet another way to make a play on natural gas futures. The fund's methodology to prevent the adverse affects of contango is quite simple: GASZ includes a short position in an index comprised of short-term futures contracts, while at the same time maintaining a long position in longer-dated futures. This combination means that the fund will generally exhibit significantly lower volatility than other funds, and that it might also allow investors to actually benefit from contango. It is important to note, however, that GASZ is an exchange-traded note, which will expose its holders to the potential credit risk of the issuing institution.
GASZ is right for you if: You are an investor seeking to gain exposure to natural gas futures, but want a methodology that can help avoid the adverse effects of contango.
DJ-UBS Natural Gas Subindex Total Return ETN (NYSEARCA:GAZ)
Quick Stats (9/27/2012)
- Total Assets: $46 million
- Average Daily Volume: 76,000
- Expense Ratio: 0.75%
- In Depth: GAZ Analyst Report and ETFdb Realtime Rating
GAZ is another popular natural gas ETF, offering exposure to natural gas prices through the futures market. Similar to UNG, GAZ invests in near-dated futures contracts traded on the NYMEX, making the correlation between the two products nearly perfect. Unlike UNG however, GAZ is structured as an ETN, meaning that there will be lower tracking error, though investors will be exposed to the credit risk of the issuing institution. Despite the slight drawback, the fund has accumulated over $45 million in total assets since its inception in 2007. GAZ also maintains a relatively healthy trading volume, with over 76,000 shares exchanging hands on an average trading day.
GAZ is right for you if: You are an investor looking to achieve natural gas exposure, but prefer the exchange-traded note structure.
Disclosure: No positions at time of writing.

"Darkness. Every word, every thought, every feeling, was darkness. Silent, empty, darkness. Then the first whispers of melody broke through like a pinpoint of light. A song, a note? Another whisper, then another. With every whispering a little light. Out of the darkness a note turned into a melody, a melody into a song, a song into a symphony. With every note a little more light. Soon light crept over the darkness until every place was filled with it's glory. And then there were voices. One voice could be heard, all the other voices were merely echoes of his own. As The Creator sang, a ball formed within his hand, it was dark and had little swirls of light inside of it, as if it was lit by a little fire within. The echoes ceased as the singers cast their gaze upon The Creator's hands holding the little ball as if it were precious and fragile. The Creator began a new song, softly he was singing, nearly whispering over the ball as if imparting life into it or attempting to hear the soft heartbeat of a living creature while he sang to it. Then he began to sing so that they could hear the words he said. Every word had never been spoken before and took forth meaning and wonder in the eyes of the echoes as they watched and listened to each new word. The melody began softly and grew with growing intensity as he sang his song of creation. The lights danced within the orb and clouds of colour swirled around them. Then they dimmed into blackness leaving no light to be seen within the ball. Then as if in their minds they saw a planet being formed, blue in colour and pleasant to look at. A smaller silver orb was placed near it. No source of light could be seen yet it seemed to them that it was illuminated. And all was silent. The Creator began another song, a darker song, a sad song, and as he sang, though the echoes knew not what the words were, Lucifer, The Morning Star, the most beautiful and lordly of the echoes stepped forth before The Creator. He gazed upon the dark orb still in The Creator's hands and sang a song of his own making. In harmony with The Creator's song yet something more then an echo did it contain. The Creator's song transcended his song regardless of how much he tried to make his song a sweeter song. Fury awoke within him as he stared at the black orb, desire to master the orb grew within him and he spoke forth with a new song, a song completely of his own making, no longer harmonizing with that of The Creator's song. A great shape like that of a dragon, made of flame rose up as Lucifer sang his song. And still the Creator's song continued on, untouched by his pride, unmoved by his flame. As Lucifer left from in front of The Creator's throne, a third of the Echoes followed after him, becoming known as the Noise. Down onto the blue planet they descended. Down from their glory, down from their splendor, Lucifer looked with hatred upon the world that The Creator had made, rising up against it he cast his rod upon it's surface and covered the surface with flame. It turned from blue to orange and the water became as clouds of poisonous steam. He cast his rod down upon the surface once again and the brown lands crackled and broke apart like a broken eggshell. The planet was made desolate and formless. And over the horror a small melody, the melody of The Creator could still be heard, grating in the ears of Lucifer and the Noise the planet that had been made formless became whole again. The rod of Lucifer broke asunder as it descended deep into the abyss. And suddenly light like that which had never broken forth before shone forth, it's brightness and glory surrounding Lucifer with it's torturing brilliance. No corner of the worlds was left in darkness, for darkness had been pushed aside by the tremendous force of the light. And behold the light grew dim as darkness once again settled over the land. Lucifer's hatred burned within him as he saw the waters be likewise divided, he saw a layer of water surround the planet above and below the atmosphere of the planet. The Creator's song then formed land, a great land, most of the surface remained covered with water, and one continent stood upon the surface of the Earth. The sea and the land. Then the song of The Creator reached a beauty unheard as green things crept across the dry, brown, surface of the land. Tendrils of living color stretched across the land and under the sea. A great forest stretched from the top of the land to the bottom of it and from east to west, yet there were significant places of valleys and mountains, rivers and streams, lakes, and wild and untamed plains. The forest consisted of every kind of tree the fields contained every kind of flower and herb. A great light spread across the surface of the Earth as a great star was placed nearby. A silvery orb floated just outside the Earth's atmosphere. But then the most wonderful things of all began to take place. The first creature to walk the earth was the unicorn. It's gleaming horn shining in the light of the newly created sun. Another unicorn joined it, with a smaller horn and slightly smaller build. They watched the Sun with unblinking eyes before taking flight across the land with marvelous speed. Then it was that birds took flight into the sky, chief among these was the phoenix, a marvelous bird with vivid bright colors, different for every phoenix and beautiful to behold. Powerful, able to transport itself anywhere instantly, deceptively stronger then it looked, able to withstand fire, even The Dragon's fire. A ball of flame, a pillar of light, a pile of dust, and a boulder of extremely hard stone stood in field. The creator looked at the flame and the light, the dust and stone and behold there came forth out of the light and dust beings, clothed in robes of white, the dust and light disappeared as there stood before The Creator two marvelous beings. The being that he made out of light he called Galandor. Firstborn of the Elves, enemy of Lucifer from the moment of his creation. He had piercing grey eyes and long golden hair. Next to Galandor, also clothed in a white robe stood the firstborn of Men. Glorious, more like the Elf next to him then men of later days, he had eyes of blue that glistened in the sunlight, his hair was dark brown and lordly, like a great king or mighty hunter. Little difference there was between the Elf and the man next to him. Theoeadam. Then out of the flame there came the firstborn Dragon. Mighty and glorious to behold, strong and beyond words to describe. His vast wings able to carry him into the skies at tremendous speed. He was the dragon of dragons, the sire of Nila and Uaithne in later days. Last of all, out of the stone came, clothed not in robes of white but glistening, silver robes that were almost more like a suit of warrior then the lordly looking robes of the Elf and the Man, there came last Hourgah. The firstborn of the Dwarves. He was about four foot five in hight, had a great mane of brown hair and a beard that fell to his belt. A crafter of stone he was to be, a seeker of jewels and things of the earth. Man was to take to gardening and the caring of the earth. To the Elf was given everything to rule, save his fellow beings. The keeper of knowledge, the keeper of secrets. Teacher of all was Lord Galandor's role. It was not long after that four more beings were created, like and unlike they were to be. Of their names, only one do I know. Katheryn it was, and still is to this day."

You're off to an interesting start. You seem to have your antagonist in Lucifer. (Is that going to stay his name?) As for a protagonist in the other characters, we will have to see, eh?
Something I noticed, which I have a hard time with, is writing the passing of time and order of events. I find that I use "then" quite often, and you have used it a few times here. Do have any tips for writing it out differently? I could use them.

No, I'm afraid I don't have any tips. I was looking over http://www.wherethemapends.com/main.htm this evening which has a ton of writing tips, maybe you'd find something there. My only suggestion would be to try to find some other way of phrasing it, but then sometimes "then" is exactly the word you're looking for. Don't know, I'm not really the best one to ask for writing tips as I mostly "write by feel" if you will, rather then by rule.
I'm still thinking about if I wish for Lucifer's name to remain such. The dead give-away that this is a bad dude was intentional. He's been Lucifer for the entire time I've been writing the story, this is just a bit of the history to the actual story rather then part of the book. I should clarify that in the actual post. I've got a protagonist, but unfortunately they have not been born yet and so Lord Galandor fills that role for this history book.

text: Amylin Pharma, Lilly Say BYETTA Approved For Use With Basal Insulin In Europe 3/23/2012 8:23 AM ET Amylin Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (AMLN) and Eli Lilly and Co. (LLY) said the European Commission has granted marketing authorization to BYETTA as an adjunctive therapy to basal insulin, with or without metformin and/or Actos, for the treatment of type 2 diabetes in adults who have not achieved adequate glycemic control with these agents. The company noted that patients in the pivotal study achieved better glycemic control overall and after meals. "The marketing authorization for the use of BYETTA with basal insulin provides a new option for the many patients with type 2 diabetes who are not achieving treatment goals," said Christian Weyer, senior vice president, research and development, Amylin Pharmaceuticals. "In a clinical trial, patients using fixed-dose BYETTA with titrated basal insulin achieved better postprandial and overall glycemic control, without weight gain or an increased risk of hypoglycemia, compared to patients using titrated basal insulin without BYETTA."The main study included in the EU marketing authorization submission package was a double-blind, 30-week clinical trial published in Annals of Internal Medicine. Further, as part of the transition plan outside the U.S., Amylin will assume responsibility for exenatide product commercialization efforts on a market-by-market basis by the end of 2013. by RTT Staff WriterFor comments and feedback: firstname.lastname@example.com News Flights of Fancy: Flops Among The 10 Most Expensive Fims Of All Time Race For A New Alzheimer Drug The World's Top 10 Beer Makers

Amazing Oils
"To give real service you must add something which cannot be bought or measured with money, and that is sincerity and integrity." Douglas Adams, Co-Founder Amazing Oils
The founding family of Amazing Oils have made it their mission to make Magnesium Oil available to as many people as possible. A wide range of challenges from a general lack of energy through to aches, pains and tight or cramping muscles can respond very quickly to a raising of the body's Magnesium levels.
Amazing Oils
This family of Yoga teachers founded Australia's most popular Yoga school in 1994 and held 60 classes a week nationally. It was 2012 when one of the family members was diagnosed with a life-threatening illness that their focus changed. Devoting themselves to endless hours of research and product testing they eventually discovered a natural solution from the pristine Australian deserts called 'Magnesium Oil.' Surprisingly it contains no actual oil whatsoever but is an organically registered source of the highest purity available.
Amazing Oils Magnesium Oil works quickly, leaves no residue on the skin and doesn't irritate like other sources. After giving the finished product to over 4000+ yoga students, the response and demand were overwhelming. Within 12 months the family moved from their kitchen bench, to the garage, then to a small shared warehouse and then finally to their own large warehouse premises. This now supports the 3000 retailers over 35 countries who offer Australian Amazing Oils.
Not worth the money
Although I noticed an improvemnt in the surface of a. blemish, there is too little product in the tube for anything to happen. A really expensive, tiny tiny tube.
Best product yet
Works extremely well to help stop cramps, and to relieve pain from cramps in muscles. Not found anything that comes close to this. Love it!
Really effective.
Well i just love these! A better way to get much needed magnesium into the body without taking pills or capsules which contain harmful fixatives and excipients. Highly recommended! Thank you so much for stocking this Health Post.

Haus des Meeres Vienna Reviews
62 reviews
Aqua Zoo with Observation Deck Nov 03, 2014
Haus Des Meeres Aqua Zoo is a 15 minute train ride from the center of Vienna.
I went here on my first day in Vienna as it was an easy place to get to and didn't really involve me doing much except looking at sea life and taking pictures.
The place was fun but slightly overdone. The best parts were Observation Deck which gave great views of Vienna and the monkey room you can walk through and touch the little monkeys. Trying to get a clear photo of them is hard though :(
I'd recommend this place but don't go out of your way. It won't set your world on fire but won't dampen it either.

Pretty cool Aquarium May 29, 2011
Haus de Meeres is a really cool aquarium in Vienna. It is 8 floors of all sorts of sea creatures, monkeys, birds, crocodiles and many other types of animals.
I went there on a trip with the kindergarten I work with and I found it as interesting and amusing as the kids did. There is a rainforest section with exotic birds and tortoises and bats and stuff and theres a crocodile park which has not only crocodiles but also monkeys running freely around!
As you are walking around Haus des Meeres you may notice see though tubes running along the walls and ground and places, there are red ants walking through these tubes carrying food and leaves and twigs back to their nest, it is so interesteding to watch them all working as a team.
They have a wide variety of snakes and lizards, I loved this part of the aquarium because I am a big reptile fan!
On the top floor of the aquarium you can go outside and look over all of Vienna, it is such a beautiful sight, you can see praters famous ferris wheel and the danube tower!
All in all Haus des Meers is worth the visit for adults or kids :)

While a 20-pound weight saving may not seem like much, every pilot knows even a small reduction in aircraft weight can make a difference in performance. Aeronautical Accessories (Booth No. 3975) received a supplemental type certificate in December for reduced-weight skid tubes for the Bell 206L, which are 20 pounds lighter than the existing skid tubes designed for the high cross-tube configuration. The Bell Helicopter affiliate, located in Bristol, Tenn., also announced here at Heli-Expo that it received dual AS9100/ISO 9001:2000 quality system certification in October last year.

Ethan Hawke & Kristin Scott Thomas in 'Woman in the Fifth' Trailer
by Ethan Anderton
May 25, 2012
Source: Apple
With Before Sunrise and Before Sunset in his past, Ethan Hawke is no stranger to romance on the big screen. But this time he's dealing with a seemingly fatal attraction in the new trailer for The Woman in the Fifth, an adaptation of Douglas Kennedy's book of the same name which follows a college lecturer (Hawke) who flees to Paris after a scandal costs him his job. In the City of Lights, he meets a widow (Kristin Scott Thomas) who might be involved in a series of murders, and their romance spins out of control when it seems his family is threatened by her obsession with him. Looks provocative and steamy.
Here's the first trailer for Pawel Pawlikowski's The Woman in the Fifth originally from Apple:
American writer Tom Ricks (Ethan Hawke) arrives in Paris to be closer to his young daughter who is living with his estranged ex-wife. The tranquility of a new job, he hopes, will help him focus on his new novel, but his days become more exciting when he starts a romance with Margit (Kristin Scott Thomas), a mysterious and elegant widow who will only see him at her apartment in the fifth arrondissement, at 5 pm sharp, twice a week and he should ask no questions about her work or her past life. Pawel Pawlikowski directs and and wrote The Woman in the Fifth based on the book of the same name which hits theaters on June 15th.

HOMICIDE detectives are investigating the death of an 11-month-old boy who died just minutes after his parents had reported a burglary at their rural Victorian home.
Police were last night questioning the Bendigo couple as forensic experts could be seen dusting for fingerprints on several cars in the backyard.
Officers were on the way to their home about 7am yesterday, just as paramedics arrived and found the child was in cardiac arrest.
He was rushed to hospital in a critical condition but was pronounced dead soon after.
Police and forensic teams scoured the home in the town about 150km north of Melbourne yesterday for clues and links between the child's death and a neighbourhood crime spree.
The spree stretched from late Thursday night to early yesterday.
"All we know at this stage is that the parents reported the burglary and then some time later we got the report that the child was taken to hospital with injuries," Insp Mark Edwards said.
"They were the last people to see the boy in good health or alive, so they are naturally assisting us with our inquiries."
He said an autopsy today would determine how the boy had died.
Forensic teams spent hours examining the Eaglehawk Rd home.
The child, his parents and an older sibling had lived in the brick rental property for about two months, neighbours said. One said a newspaper delivery woman had seen a man holding a child in a blanket about 7am.
The three-bedroom home, now sealed behind crime scene tape, is listed for sale.

She blew me off for some other guy in the class, and then she came back to me because that guy turned out to be a douchebag,
i ignored her, so now since im the most valuable guy in the class and since she fucked up by blowing me off earlier for a douchebag, so now is stuck in a pickle.
As a result, now she stopped coming to the class, its been 4 months and same is the time since she dint talk to me.
But she uploads songs and poems for me, basically indirectly telling me that she loves me and misses me.
Is it over?
- No its not over, she is feeling guilty and ashamed and fears rejection so she is chosing to indirectly reach out to you. Hoping you will see poems and songs and reach out to her.23%(3)33%(6)Vote60%(3)

Sounds like she has too much pride to admit she's fucked up leaving you.10|10|0
Yeah she is passive aggressive kind of a person,
we were casually dating and she reached out to me in the class by making eye contact with me and stuff, but i fuckin ignored the shit out of her, so maybe she took it as a sign of rejection.
and now she ain't even texting me for 4 months but still uploads songs and love poems

@9mfeo she played with my feelings,
My ego won't let me die me in peace if i dint pay her the favour back.
I have full control and power at this point and i will abuse my power.
It. Will be so fun when she will be in love with me after hooking up with me and then i will treat her like shit hahahahahah
Yeah, that is a totally sane response. Someone didn't want to go out with you so you plot revenge. You going to kill her when you're done as well, Eliot Rodger?

As part of their continuing coverage of Dragon Age 2, Game Informer has posted a video briefly discussing and showing the audio, art and animation of the game and for the first time they show some combat in action. As they mention, "this is footage of a game super early on, and that it in no way reflects the quality of the finished product. That means you should reserve any final judgments until your holding the final version of the game in your hands."

Single Player Integration Overview
As a free single-player game developer, there are no required APIs to be able to upload your game to Kongregate. However, we have a number of APIs available if you wish to enhance your game and boost your revenue share in the process.
Connect to our Client API Object
In order to get access to our APIs, you'll need to connect to our local API through ActionScript (or external calls to Javascript if you're in Unity). You can find out details about the specific language connections in our API Overview page. Throughout the rest of the documentation you will see references to methods for this Kongregate API object.
Add Some Quick APIs As Needed
Statistics: This is a very simple API that allows you to submit progress and high scores of players in the game. In addition to on-site leaderboards, this will enable us to put achievements on your game and feature it heavily if it gets a high rating on the site. It also comes with a 10% boost to your ad revenue share, increasing from 25% to 35%.
Kreds Payments: If you want to be able to accept payments within your game, we have an API that will allow you to use our kreds system for purchases. Check out the virtual goods section of this site to find out more about how that works.
Shared Content: Have a level editor or some other content players might want to share with one another? Shared content can greatly increase the stickiness of your game and long-term plays and revenue. The Shared Content API enables both in-game and URL-based sharing of content, as well as a ratings system and sorting methods for the content.
Other APIs: We have other APIs that you can explore too! Want to give the player a sitewide avatar as a bonus in the game? There's an API for that. Want to get a list of their friends to show in-game? There's an API for that too!next
