The Miniature Poodle was originally developed to be a hunting dog that is specialized on waterfowl. He is a very clever and elegant dog that always like to impress and showoff. The average height of a Miniature Poodle is 1 foot, 10 inches weighing about 45 to 70 pounds. They have a lifespan of 12 to 1 years.
Originally developed as a hunting dog specialized in waterfowl the Miniature Poodle is a very intelligent dog with a big personality. Even though he was mainly used to hunt nowadays his main job is being an entertaining family pet. The Miniature Poodle loves all the energy demanding activities like fly-ball, Frisbee, running, swimming and many others. If he is left alone more than a few hours a day he can become bored and might become very loud and destructive. The Miniature Poodle is a great watchdog because he is very reserved with strangers and will always let you know when a stranger is approaching your property. He is known to behave well when children are around but very small children should always be well supervised when they encounter any type of dog breed because they might have the tendency to tease and no dog will accept that. Obedience training and early socialization are very important in this case and can make a big difference if you want to have an obedient pet.
Miniature Poodle Training:
Miniature Poodle is a very intelligent dog breed. They can learn new commands very quickly which makes them quite easy to train. Usually they enjoy any type of activity so training will not be a problem for them. In fact it can be something that they will really enjoy.
Miniature Poodle Shedding:
Shedding should not concern you at all if you plan to buy this type of dog breed. In fact you will never find a hair in your house because the Miniature Poodle is not a type of dog breed that sheds hair.
Miniature Poodle Grooming:
The Miniature Poodle, like many other dog breeds, need daily exercise. Don't worry, those needs can be met quite easy with simple walks or playing some fun games. His coat needs to be shaped two or three months and proper brushing should be done every now and then.
Miniature Poodle History:
The Miniature Poodle was originally developed in Germany as a hunting dog specialized in waterfowl hunting. He is very intelligent and highly trainable, features that helped him a lot in the past. Even though he originated in Germany the breed was further developed in France and it is the result of crossing many European breeds.
The Poodle is one of the oldest breeds developed especially for hunting waterfowl. Most historians agree that the Poodle originated in Germany, but developed into his own distinct breed in France.

Author has written 1 story for Harry Potter.
Hello, it's me...Elenemire...no you don't know me yet, but soon the whole world will know me! mwahahaha! ehem well, there's not much to say...I guess I could go find one of those survey thingies that ask the questions so that I can answer them...within reason...makes it easier that was you know...hold on let me go find one...
Ok, found one but I can't get it to come up on this thing, so let me just tell you a couple of things.
I LOVE Blink 182, Eminem, some Marylin Manson, System of a Down, Disturbed, Misfits, Josh Groban, some of My Chemical Romance, Evanescence, and some others.
I am a christian...I really do better with questions...
Ummmm...let's see...Ah, here's something I bet you'd never guess...ok, I don't actually care for Harry Potter... I do, HOWEVER, love the whole Draco/Ginny thing...why? I have no idea! So I read the first couple of books of the Potter series, didn't care for them, then decided to see what fanfiction.net had on Draco, I read a story with him and Ginny and I was hooked. I thought the pairing was brilliant. They just seem to be the typical romance couple...kinda sad really that they would be considered typical but hey, there ya go, whatever works.
I LOVE anything to do with vampires. I love the Buffy series, got into Angel too late. Could never decide who I like more, the deep dark Angel, or the saucy sexy Spike.Either way they're both quite the catch.
Also, I love stories that have to do with Mina or Ami from Sailor Moon, now don't worry, I have matured enough to realize that it's quite the childish show, but those two character's hold the appeal that Draco and Ginny have...though unlike the Draco/Ginny thing Mina and Ami aren't dating or anything...though I would suppose that it depends on what story you read. But so far as the ones I read they're not dating.
I am also going to marry Quatre, from Gundam Wing...no not really, but he is my sweety, my baby, my darling boy.
About me? Well, since you asked I love video games, I love my X-Box and baby my PS2! Can't wait for the new 360! Yeah Baby!
I am a college student, military brat (yes, i have traveled the world over for anyone who would like to know), and one who seriously believe that I have been taken from my home planet, Jupiter, and placed on this planet, yes, earth silly, by accident. But then hey, who really knows, right. I prefer to think of myself as Interplanetary Ambassador. Has a nice ring to is, no?
That about sums it up...lovely huh? Well, have fun with...well, whatever it is you do I have to work on my story...see you all in the wires!

Complaint Review: Asurion Insurance - Sprint
- Asurion Insurance - Sprint
United States of America
- Phone: 1-800-584-3666
- Web: www.asurion.com
- Category: Electronic Manufacturers
Asurion Insurance - Sprint Asurion claimed that I didn't return a phone when I actually did. They also charged me over $300 for the non return fee. Internet
*Consumer Suggestion: attorney general
In the box that my phone came in was directions on how to send back the broken phone. It said that I should send the phone back within 10 days to avoid being charged a $500 non-return fee. I returned my old broken phone in the return package that was sent to me with the replacement phone. The phone was returned about 48 hours later by postal mail. This was at the end of April.
Now, in Mid June I am being charged over $300 for something that I feel was not my fault and is way beyond my control. Sprint interrupted my service because Asurion has charged me with these fees.
The first time my service was interrupted, I called Sprint, not knowing why I was being charged. That's when I was notified that Asurion claimed that I did not return the phone. The woman who I was on the phone with apologized for the inconvienience, removed the charges, and restored my service. 48 hours later,
My service was interrupted a second time. I called directly to Asurion. The claimed that my complaint was denied and I was still being charged for the non-return fee. I explained to them that I did return the phone and I feel that it is unfair that I have to pay for something when I took responsibility and did my part in mailing back the phone. The phone was completely shattered and non working.
There is no reason why I would want to keep it, or try to get over on anyone. The told me that the only thing that they can do is take off 25% of the fee. When i asked how much it would be in total I was old the fee would go down to $74. Me not knowing what else to do, and feeling that that was my only option, Itold them okay and that I would return the call later on. My service was restored and the free was reduced.
Later on that day, my service was interrupted for the third time. After realizing this, I also realized that the price shot right back up to where it was in the begining minus $38 that I paid off for my actual phone bill. I called Asurion back to figure out why this was, They had me on hold for almost an hour only to tell me that my service would be restored immediately.. As i am typing this, my service still has not been restored like they promised and the fees still sit in my account.

Foreign Minister Uri Rosenthal says he wants Dutch diplomacy to change its mentality and focus more on Dutch economic interests.
In an interview in , he says a number of embassies will be closed or reduced, and others possibly opened, to respond to ongoing shifts in international relations, such as China's increasing influence.
Embassies likely to be closed include those located in countries that the Netherlands will stop giving development aid. At the same time, the remaining embassies will provide better service to Dutch citizens, Minister Rosenthal said.
Diplomacy as a form of genteel leisure, the minister stressed, was a thing of the past. Diplomacy now needs, he opined, young civil servants 'bursting with ideas and plans'.
The announcement is in line with plans of the previous government, comprising Christian Democrats, Labour and the Christian Union.

Hi everyone
I am from Delhi and would like to travel alone to western Europe, need advise from all you folks here regarding the same, now I will definitely be on a very tight budget, I have narrowed down 3 countries that are a must for me, England, Scotland and Italy,
Now with Italy, just 1 city will be fine, either Milan or Rome, even Napples.
For England it will most likely be London, my gateway in to Europe, As far as Scotland goes, the more the merrier, Sterling, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Highland etc...
Will have to apply for a UK visa and a Schenegan visa.
Shopping or splurging will be the last thing on my.
October is the most that I have on my mind, Is that okay for travel as far as the weather is concerned (I kind of don't like snow,ice or very cold weather)??
Hopping for great help and early responses from all.
Also let me know if I an missing anything here,please film me in for the same.

Well London is certainly not very budget friendly. Scotland is probably less costly as is Italy - but none are in the cheap category with Spain, Portugal and parts of central europe.
For us to give advice you need to tell us how long yuor trip will be, what you want to spend per night for lodging and what your interests are.
Oct weather should be pleasant everywhere - but do understand that Scotland can be chilly and rainy (40's, pouring down and windy) even in midsummer.
Report Abuse
Many thanks for the prompt response.
The trip shall be for 12-14 days.
London is absolutely expensive but travelling from India that is the cheapest gateway in to Europe as far as the airfare goes. I myself work at a travel firm but deal only in international flights, (that's why don't know about the places,hotels etc)
Sri Lankan airlines at present is offering a fare for 45000 inr (742 USD) and the itinerary is DEL -LHR and return FCO-Del, are these fares ok for October?
Also I am looking at spending at max 2 nights in London and can also cut it down to 1 night, but I can't skip the stone henge, I believe it's a 2 hour drive from London (is it true).
I don't really have a lot of money for the trip but have been saving to the best of my ability. Also I won't have much of luggage 20kg check-in at max and a bag pack should work for me.
You also mentioned something about Portugal and Spain. If it can cut down my budget, I might as well skip the complete Italy.
Awaiting your reply. Many thanks in advance

In general Spain and Portugal are cheaper than Italy, but it's perfectly possible to visit Italy without spending a lot of money. Hostels cost about the same in every country, and there are cheap places to eat that are also more or less the same price everywhere. People who want to stay in a nice hotel and always eat in good restaurants are more likely to notice the price difference.
Naples is cheaper than Milan for most things, but Rome is also an affordable city and full of things to see, many of which are free or very cheap.
We were recently in Scotland, and we did find that restaurants were cheaper there than in England, but getting around by train anywhere in the UK is expensive.
Stonehenge is easy to get to from London by taking a train to Salisbury and a bus from there. You should spend at least three nights in London, maybe four, because there's so much to see there. Once you've found a good hostel, you wouldn't save a lot of money by leaving earlier.
Do you know what you want to see in Scotland? That is where you should really be careful, because getting around the countryside is not cheap. If you buy your tickets in advance you can get cheaper train tickets, especially if you travel at odd times of day. Someone from the UK can tell you the optimal time to buy tickets.

Concur with your idea of dropping Italy this trip. Next time you can see a good bit of it rather than just one city.
Report Abuse
Really appreciate the help you all are doing by replying.
Scotland has been always on my mind but I am not very sure about the places one has to visit, Edinburgh and sterling, I have heard are the best,my main focus is absolutely on the Scottish Highlands, (with no idea of how to get there).
Maybe a ryan air flight might help or any other no frill budget carrier but please let me know which will be the closest of the Scottish cities if I had to fly out of Gatwick /stansted etc.
Now regarding a 3-4 day stay in London should that be 3-4 nights in England or London alone?
If in England then please let me know which are the English cities which are a must to visit apart from London and which are budget friendly also ?
Also is it easy travelling to isle of man and Cardiff and most importantly is it worth it for a person who would be on a hand to mouth budget?
I have read a hundreds of blogs here for Europe and all of them recommend the Euro Rail passes, now if I go to Portugal or Spain, will those passes also work in UK and vic-a-versa.
What should be an average per day expense that I should be looking at for Europe and for UK? here in India we use the INR so roughly a pound is like 103 INR and about 84 INR equals an Euro

Rabbies Tours out of Edinburgh go all over Scotland. We took a day trip that went to Stirling Castle and Loch Lomond (which is in the southern Highlands). It wasn't very expensive and the driver was full of interesting information about the destinations and Scotland in general. You can get a tour of any length. Or you can take a train to Stirling, Glasgow, etc.
Look into getting an apartment in Edinburgh--we got one for a few days right on the High Street and it was less than most hotel rooms we found on Tripadvisor. It had a kitchen and washer/dryer so you can save money by making your own food.
As to what cities in England and Wales, I'd get a good guidebook to the UK and read about what's where. You're the one who knows your interests. However, my spouse and I really liked York, Chester, Canterbury, Oxford, Bath, Durham, and Caernarfon Castle in Wales.
Four nites is about the minimum to start seeing London as that gives you only three full days.
If you'll respond with your interests, we can help you better.

The UK has its own rail pass the Britrail pass. You have to do quite a lot of long-distance train travel to make it pay off. I think you'd do better to buy your tickets in advance, so that you can get a good discount. However, you'll need to know the best time to get these discounts. I think we left it a little too late.

Many thanks for the advice,
Your advice has actually changed my complete outlook on the same, I can take a bus once I enter Scotland, seeing the entire country side by road would be nice. I can't rent a car because though I do drive in India and we have the same left side driving and the steering wheel on the right (just like England) but I would have to apply for a UK driving licence, hence leading to unadded expenses and documentation,
Have fancied traveling the UK country side since I was a child. So please let me know which would be more budget friendly - a bus once I get to Scotland or a train from London to York, a 2 day halt in York and then train to Glasgow / Edinburgh???
And as I mentioned I'd be most possibly be travelling all alone, I need a advice from you that is it all safe in the UK? I have heard that Europe is nearly crime free for tourists but still wanted a feedback from someone who has been to UK.
I think I'd have to stay at an affordable hotel / hostel with wifu. What should be the per night expense that I shall be expecting?? I hope I am not being too ambitious with the wifi.

PS Excuse the typos.

A Britrail pass is almost certainly an expensive mistake for any traveller on a tight budget - and it's almost never the case that trains alone provide the best value way of getting round Britain.
Britons short of money get about mostly by booking inflexible advance tickets on trains (about 12 weeks prior) for journeys over 100 miles or so, by buying offpeak walk-up tickets for shorter intercity journeys, by buying a Railcard for 33% discount on these fares if they're eligible (see http://www.nationalrail.co.uk/times_fares/46540.aspx) and by buying local transport packages for travel entirely within the larger conurbations.
On some longer routes (like London-Glasgow) airlines might be cheaper: on some routes, (like London-Oxford) buses might be faster, cheaper and comfier, and some routes (like getting to Stonehenge) require a bus part of the way anyway.
Though Britrail loyalists (and clandestine earners of commission from touting Britrail passes) are forever banging on about Britrail's advantages, the benefits come down to flexibilty: no-one has ever demonstrated on this or any other forum a real-world rail itinerary that's cheaper through a Britrail pass than by careful prebooking of point to point journeys.
For some relatively affluent tourists, this doesn't matter: a Britrail pass more or less lets them get on any train between towns during its validity, and it doesn't matter to them that they'd have saved £50-£100 by booking journeys separately. This doesn't sound like a luxury you can afford.
By all means first determine the cost of Britrail. Its website isn't accessible to people in Britain, and virtually all its foreign fans either don't understand how to get cheap train fares, or don't want to tell you, so you need to do this comparison yourself. Then cost up your proposed itinerary by constructing dummy journeys for around October 15 on www.nationalrail.co.uk - but do play round with timings, since train fares vary widely through the day.
The National Rail site also has maps of the network. With only one exception, your most sensible working assumption is that the prices quoted on the National Rail site are the cheapest available (the site then connects you to the relevant train operating company site to make the actual bookings). Virtually all third-party sites claiming to quote lower prices (ESPECIALLY thetrainline) simply lie, by charging you extra booking fees.
The one exception, on some routes, is http://uk.megabus.com/
This is a booking engine, for some train and bus routes, that offers exceptionally low fares, sometimes for inconvenient routings or timings (so for some promising prices, such as London-Bath, compare its timetables with those on National Rail). Its trains are no different from other people's, though many of its buses are slightly more crowded than their competitors - which on some longer journeys can really matter.
You'd be wise to submit your proposed itinerary to a forum like this. By and large, this forum is good at helping you plan itineraries, but the UK Trip Advisor forum is far, far better at then fine-tuning railway plans to squeeze your costs as far as they'll be squeezed. Trip Advisor contributors can be balls-aching in the minutiae they'll cover to get train prices down - but there aren't any Britail touts among them, and errors get spotted by other contributors very quickly.

Usually the cheapest lodging is hostels - but that will mean a dorm room shared with strangers. This is not how we travel but I would look at the student web sites to find those that are safest (some are party places with lots of drinking and drugs), most pleasant and conveniently located. I believe a bed/locker in a shared dorm room is about US $50 per night. And I assume you would want a unisex room.

thanks for the detailed advice
I did go to the http://uk.megabus.com/ and found buses for as low as 10.60GBP.from London victoria to Glasgow.Only drag is that the arrival in Glasgow will be 12.30am. Going by your advice I am pretty sure that I will not be opting for the Rail Pass by Brit rail

Hi Satvik,
We spent almost a week in London a few years ago. There are affordable hotels, we stayed at a Holiday Inn in Hammersmith. It was £55/night and included b'fast! It was a great deal, some kind of special rate they had for a short time. The hotel was a 8-10 minute walk to the nearest Tube station for the lines one needs to get to all the sight seeing, but it was an easy walk on a busy street, felt safe even late at night.
Food: We found plenty of Indian restaurants in Hammersmith and ate very reasonably. Are you vegetarian? Found fab South Indian food! Coming from the US, it was Indian food heaven. Not much British fare for vegetarians, usually.
There are always sandwich options too, and ready to eat meals at grocery stores. If you can eat like the locals and you can save lots of money. We didn't go to fancy restaurants, as we had kids, and didn't have that kind of money anyway.
Hope this helps and you have a great trip!

Hi All.
I am back after a few days,now I did apply for a UK visa but its been delayed by a couple of months due to some documentation,I would most probably be getting my UK visa in Early December and that is not the best time to travel to the British aisles.
I see myself now planning for a trip in the summer of 2015.I wanted to know that which month will be the best to travel as far as cost and climate are concerned. I don't like winters a lot and money is a big issue like I said earlier.This might be my only chance to ever visit Europe or for that matter anywhere outside India.
I initially was a little confused whether to put Republic Ireland also on my radar but I think I'll pass on that.
P.S I know its a beautiful country but such is life.
So if now we talk about just the GB,Excluding the Northern Ireland also,I have 3 countries Wales,England,Scotland.
Here at fodors I haven't heard much about wales.I'll be having a total of 14 days for GB and I think covering 3 beautiful countries is not possible within that short span.
Comments and Advice's are most on welcome on that.
Some of area of Interests are Sightseeing the Green Lushy outfields of Scotland, The beautiful countryside of England under a cloudy weather(all so serene),distilleries in Scotland .
Yes I love history and would love to see a castle or 2 in Edinburgh etc and also Stonehenge is a must for me.
Now some of the cities that I have narrowed it down are as follows
For England
And For Scotland
Sterling(I am a big Braveheart Fan)
Please let me know that whether I should add a day or 2 in Cardiff??
Also I wont mind seeing a couple of museum also in these countries.Going by the Internet it seems that London is the most expensive in all these cities as it being the Financial and Political capital,It will be important for me to put it on my Travel plan as I'll be flying into LHR and Flying out also out of LHR. Because of the low airfares and numerous flight options from Delhi.(over 50 airlines have connections on the DEL-LHR and 5 are non stop).
So should it be first London and the rest of England and then head to Scotland,see Scotland and rush back to London.Am I rushing it or Am I being too Ambitious? Comments are most welcome.
Or Should it be a London halt for a couple of days and then all Scotland and then coming back a stay in a English city and then London???
Awaiting all the responses

Your wish-list is much too ambitious in the amount of time you have. Plan your trip by nites, not days. You should have five nites in London. That leaves you nine or ten at most for the rest of the UK. Travel in the UK is quite slow, particularly in rural areas.
When to go: May or September would be good, but the weather in the UK is unpredictable. We went in May last year and it rained a little almost every day and some days it rained hard. If I had it to do again, I'd go in September.
Whether to stay in London first or last is up to you but I would not recommend staying there two different times, unless you are just going to stay for the nite prior to an early flight; if so,then stay at the airport for that nite. You'll generally, but not always, get a better hotel rate for a longer stay.
Is there some particular reason you want to see Birmingham, Manchester, Portsmouth and Plymouth? Portsmouth and Plymouth are quite a distance apart, and I question whether you have time to see all of these a two-week trip and also see anywhere else. And there is little that is rural about them.
Unless you have some particular reason I'd substitute Bath and a tour of some of the Cotswold villages for these major cities--one of the most beautiful areas of rural England. Maybe try to stay in one of the smaller places in southern central England and travel around by bus. That alone plus York and maybe a run up by train to Edinburgh with a day trip to Stirling Castle and the Highlands would exhaust the time you have and would be a very fast trip.
Again, any particular reason to go to Glasgow, Dundee and Aberdeen? They are not in the Highlands, which is something I thought you wanted to do. Again, seeing all these plus Edinburgh plus Stirling plus Highlands will take more time than you have.
So it's either London plus Scotland plus York, or London plus Oxford/Costwolds plus York. In my opinion, that's all you have time for.
York deserves a couple of days (at least an early arrival and an overnite) as it offers a lot to do.
London has some world-class museums and they're mostly free. Be sure to visit the Docklands branch of the Museum of London as it deals with the "Empire." Very interesting. London has great South Asian food, as do most of the cities in the UK.
BTW--the UK is quite safe. Don't do anything you wouldn't do in Delhi, don't wear jewelry on the street, carry your valuables in a money belt, and beware of "friendly strangers". You should be O.K.

Thanks for replying

Actually no, don't have any specific reason to visit these cities, just have read in few newspapers that these are famous tourist spots, so thought of mentioning it here.
York will be a must for me.
Also let me know if it is worth stoping in Nottingham for a night, (I am a Robin Hood fan) May be local sightseeing, and also about Cardiff, shall I ignore it because of the less time I have?
Again, any particular reason to go to Glasgow, Dundee and Aberdeen? They are not in the Highlands, which is something I thought you wanted to do.
Yes I really want to see the highlands, I have heard that Glasgow is a must visit, is it true??
Will I get time to add Loch and Lake District if I ignore Aberdeen, Dundee and Glasgow??
and beware of "friendly strangers". You should be O.K.
Now that's one good advice that you have given. Will surely keep it in my mind.

There's nothing "wrong" with any of these places, and there are things for visitors to see/do. It's just strange to hear them described as "famous tourist spots" - they would certainly NOT be on most first-time visitors lists of things to visit in the UK. The same could be said for Dundee and Aberdeen in Scotland.
We see many posts here from first time visitors who appear to build itineraries around an apparently random selection of large towns/cities that they happen to have heard of, and as a result miss out on areas that are big on scenery and countryside (The West Country, Cotswolds, Lake District, New Forest, The Trossachs, Western Isles, etc etc - there are many more...)
I can't help thinking you should get hold of a good guidebook (Lonely Planet, DK, Fodors...) and build a potential itinerary from the places that interest you.
Report Abuse
Your problem is that you don't have enough time to do all what you wanted to do--now you're adding places.
Gordon is right--get a good guidebook or two and read about what there is to do and where it is. That way, you'll discover what YOU want to do. E.g. I always wanted to go to South America so I got a guidebook and read it through. I had thought I wanted to go to Argentina, but Peru seemed more interesting to me given my interests. I've now spent about seven weeks in Peru over two trips and am thinking about going back again (although I'll probably make it to Argentina first). The point is that only you know what you enjoy doing.
Fodor's is good because it gives suggested itineraries; that will be a good guide to how long it will take you to see what you want to see. It is NOT good for places to stay--they go for quaint and expensive, IMO.
It looks to me like you really want to go to Scotland. My spouse and I loved the few days we spent in Scotland--particularly the Borders (south of Glasgow and Edinburgh and just north of England) and are planning to return just to Scotland (with a few days in London and perhaps a day in Portsmouth and Manchester). So you won't go wrong in doing only Scotland, York and London.
Haven't been to Glasgow, Dundee or Aberdeen but I do want to see all of them at some point, particularly Glasgow for its role in the Industrial Revolution--had we had one more day in Scotland, we would have taken a day trip there from Edinburgh. However lots of people on this board discourage going to Glasgow because it's too industrial or not quaint enough.
Again, you should do what you want to do, and if you really want to visit the Sherwood Forest area, then do it, again keeping in mind that by spending time there, you'll have to cut someplace else (or extend your trip.)
Report Abuse
You have very limited time and it seems London and Scotland are your major "must see" areas.
So plan on JUST that. At least 5 nights in London and the rest of your time in Scotland.
One note: up thread you mentioned you couldn't rent a car because you'd have to get a UK drivers license. That is not required - at all. A visitor can drive w/ just their own, home license - and perhaps an International Drivers Permit that translates it if the home license is not in English.
Not that you'd necessarily need to rent a car in Scotland - there are terrific small coach tours. But driving in rural Scotland is easy and a wonderful way to see things.

Thank You all for your advice and time.Turns out I was being too Ambitious.
I'll go as advised to me by Gordon,dwdvagamundo and janisj.
London(plus Stonehenge),York,Nottingham and Edinburgh and Highlands (yes again seems too ambitious) 15 days, 14 nights.
Please suggest me the places,cities,town etc for Highlands.
Rabbies tours of Scotland have a 1 day tour from Edinburgh to cover up Loch Ness, Glencoe & Highlands . Is this enough????
Are they good, The Internet is All praise for them.
They also have a 1 day Loch Lomond National Park and Stirling Castle Day Tour ,is this better??? Since it covers Sterling (Brave-heart).
Now About England.
London,Nottingham, York.
Wikipedia puts it in the counties of Oxford.By this means I understand that it should be close to London.I am getting it right??(I am not very great at Geography)
I have been reading Google maps quite thoroughly I do realize that Plymouth and Portsmouth are quite far from each other.
If I literally go through a map Cotswold is about 1.45 min of a drive from Nottingham. So I might be able to cover up London(plus Stonehenge),York,Nottingham and Cotswold in about 9 days and the rest of it in Edinburgh and rest of Scotland. Does this sound feasible and Logical???
As janisj mentioned about renting a car and driving in Scotland,I might not be able to do so,the reason being I dont enjoy driving too much and being alone in a foreign land and then driving,I might miss the scenic beauty that I would enjoy while sitting in a bus/Train.(Most possibly a Bus).
Advice's are most welcome..

Hi All
Another quick question I have,Although I have mentioned it earlier also about Nottingham but wanted to ask again.
I was going through the street view on my computer for the Sherwood Forest in Nottingham, TBH it seems today like an ordinary national park/ Forest. (No offence to Nottingham in any sorts)
It is actually worth seeing it or there are any other Good locations to see in Nottingham? Or Is it altogether that Google Street View can't show what a real Human eye can see and feel?

Nottingham, bluntly, is a dump.
It's highly rated by students at its universities, mainly because few other people choose to live there, so rents are low and pubs are cheap. It has very, very little else going for it.
"Forest" in English doesn't mean dense woodland. It's a legal term referring to the kind of law operating in certain kinds of land controlled directly by the monarch. In late Norman England (the time of King John), such places tended to be used for deer hunting - which meant modest amounts of trees, with lots of more open pasture where the deer could graze.
In some colonial dialects of English (especially in North America), the term's come to refer to dense woodland. But most places in England called a Forest are still pretty much as they were 800 years ago, though now as a rule privately owned, and managed for other kinds of agricultural use.
None are particularly picturesque - and they're generally worth visiting only if you live close by and want a walk in woods. The belief visitors create for themselves that Sherwood (or Epping) Forest are examples of destroyed woodland is pure fantasy.
There is terrific scenery close to Nottingham in Derbyshire, and many of Nottingham's rural suburbs are fine places to live. Not worth travelling from India for (though Derbyshire's Peak District may well be for many)

Satavik--I think four to five days in Scotland for a first trip is fine. My spouse and I took the Rabbies day trip from Edinburgh to Stirling Castle and Loch Lomond, enjoyed it, and learned a lot about Scotland ftom the driver/tour guide. Can't speak to the other tours or other places to go in the Highlands. As I stated previously, we really loved the Borders--ruined abbies, beautiful scenery, Scott's home, etc. Stayed in Jedburgh and liked it a lot.
I just finished rereading Ivanhoe, which concerns Robin Hood, etc., and much of it is set in castles and abbies. So you might do an on-line search to see if you can find any that are open to the public in the area around Nottingham, then tour one or two. York and Sheffield were also mentioned a lot. You'd see some of the countryside as well.
I'll let someone else speak to the rest of your trip. But it looks like you're zeroing in on what you really want to do.

>>Wikipedia puts it in the counties of Oxford<<
What does this refer to? Do you mean Nottingham? If so, no, it is not in Oxfordshire. I don't think you'd want to waste time going to Nottingham in any case.
In your time you could have a nice visit in London with a day trip for Stonehenge, York, and Scotland. If you wanted to see the Cotswolds I'd suggest you take a couple of days and stay in Bath (a really lovely city) and then take a day trip from there with Mad Max. They do great tours to Stonehenge, the Cotswolds, etc from Bath.
Rabbies is a terrific tour company - either of this two tours would be fine. But since Stirling is an easy day trip on your own from Edinburgh by train, I'd probably do the Highlands tour.
Definitely - Forget about Nottingham.

dwdvagamundo: >> if she really wants to see it, she should.<<
But I think it is pretty obvious there is some misunderstanding of the 'pleasures' of Nottingham. Satvik123's last post does indicate they are now questioning whether it is 'worth' visiting.
IMO we'd be doing the OP a huge disservice to encourage this visit.

janis--While I agree and am not encouraging her, I do think that if she wants to, she should try to see it, and was simply pointing out how she might approach it. I have to admit I've been tempted to stop in the area and see what is there (even knowing there is nothing there).

Hello All
Thanks for your valuable time and input.
Firstly I am a male.I have decided to skip on Nottingham since it is not matching the travel plan.
Rabbies tour company seems to be my best bet for the highlands once I reach Edinburgh,May the 2 day tour, and then as said by janisj of taking a an easy day trip by train to sterling from Edinburgh . As I have found and heard a lot about Rabbies for tours to highlands, is there any good tour company for England??
As we have discussed earlier.
For England it will be
London(plus stone henge-a must)
Cotswold and maybe 1 more place if time permits(suggestions are most welcome)
Many thanks

Also Apologies as I am deviating from the topic,But yesterday I did a tour to Taj Mahal in Agra.
I did a tour of total 3 places
Krishna Janm Bhumi(Lord Krishna Birth Place) in Mathura
The Agra Fort in Agra( Built by Mughal Rulers Humayun and Akbar)
And Last but not the least The Taj Mahal (Built by Emperor Shah Jahan)
I along with my friend booked the tickets of a Bus provided by Panicker's Travels India Pvt Ltd.
Had an amazing trip.If anyone wishes to visit the Taj Mahal Ever,I strongly recommend booking through them.

By the way, you keep referring to "Sterling" when you mean Stirling (nothing at all to do with the currency).

For touring where you want to go in southern England . . . I might suggest you stay maybe 2 or 3 nights in Bath. It is a lovely city worth visiting - plus there is a great tour company that does day trips to places like Stonehenge and the Cotswolds . . . and they are much cheaper than tours leaving from London.
So several nights in London, 2 or 3 nights in Bath (3 nights if you want to take 2 Mad Max tours) and the rest of your time up north/Scotland.

Meant to add -- The Taj Mahal is one of the main sites on my future wish list.

Captain Obvious, we all KNOW that it did happen, we are discussing the justification as imagined by John, and that's missing from the article you linked.
Revolting Idiot, what was the justification that John imagined that was not in the FOX article? Except for a bit of literary license, it's pretty damn close - John didn't exaggerate much.

Nats left-hander Scott Olsen gets the start tonight against the Braves' veteran Tim Hudson as the Nats look for their fifth series win of the season.
Olsen, coming off a lights out performance in the win over Florida last Friday night, is 7-1. He tossed six innings and allowed five hits and no earned runs, while striking out four and walking three. He has a current 13-inning scorelesss streak.
Catcher Wil Nieves likes what he has seen so far from Olsen:
"He has been attacking the strike zone. His fastball is at 89 and 90 miles per hour. That's what he needed to happen. He is getting his arm strength back. He is pitching in and out. His slider is really good and his changeup is very good. He is throwing his best stuff to the hitters. That is how he is supposed to pitch."
I asked Wil about Olsen's new pitch this season, a sinker:
"He has got a good sinker now. That's a great pitch. Especially against righties and you go inside and you throw sinkers away. That's a pitch he is using more this year. The time I caught him we used it a lot. I know Pudge called it a lot on Friday. It's a real good pitch for him to have in his arsenal."
Be sure to check out Nats Xtra before the game for our special on set guest, two-time Pro Bowl Washington Redskins cornerback DeAngelo Hall. I also heard Hall is going to throw out the first pitch!

2005 Lexus ES 330 Sedan - Consumer Review
Build Quality
Reliability Value
Build Quality
Reliability Value
Tricked ES 330
By WHTFLR on
Vehicle2005 Lexus ES 330 4dr Sedan (3.3L 6cyl 5A)
ReviewRecently purchased a 2005 ES 330, added
18" Chrome Wheels, Toyo Tires, Dark
Tinted Windows, and a Factory Rear
Spoiler. Although the Toyo Proxes put
more rubber on the road, the handling
of the vehicle stayed relatively the
same. With the added features, the
silver car with chromes stands out
significantly from other vehilces. The
sound system is sufficient for the
inside cabin, the controls for the air
and radio are well positioned, with
controls on the steering wheel making
driving the ES 330 an intriguing
delight. Have read a lot of reviews
stating the ES is a glorified Toyota -
nothing could be farther from the
truth - there is no comparison, this
Best FeaturesI enjoy the wood grain interior accents,the rear sun shade,the controls integrated on the steering wheel. I tried several new vehicles before deciding on the Lexus. When someone asks what I liked about this car, I sum it up in one word SOFT. Soft handling, quiet ride,
Worst FeaturesA few of the options should be included in the car at no additional cost, since there is such a discrepency between the 430 and the 330, this car may well become the flagship of their business.

This beautiful blend is created by us from start to finish. We grow or harvest the herbs, and using a special process the properties (and fragrance) of each plant is extracted. It has been expertly crafted by our Master Herbalist in conjunction with our Shaman using traditional techniques and Reiki energy. An all natural blend of plant extracts (grown by Mother Earth with out the use of any pesticides or chemicals…. about as organic as it gets!) With a sweet, slightly floral fragrance this smudge spray is a great alternative to traditional smudge mixes, which are burned.
What is smudge? And Why use spray smudge?
Smudging is a way to cleanse a person , place or an object of negative energies, spirits or influences.
The smudging traditionally involves the burning of sacred plants then, either passing an object through the resulting smoke, or fanning the smoke around a person or place. You can use spray smudge in a similar way, by spritzing the object, place or person.
To smudge a person with spray smudge, mist the spray smudge over the top of their head, or above their body if lying down. You only need one or two sprays to cleanse a person. To cleanse a room or house, spray clockwise around the area. Again only a couple of sprays are needed to cleanse a room as the mist will disperse into the whole space.
When we smudge, you are asking the spirit of sacred plants for assistance and you must pay proper respect to their healing power. Using Sage to "Smudge" is a simple and powerful way to clear your energy field and remove negative energy from the area. Sage is the main ingredient in our smudge spray.
Smudging is traditionally the process of burning the dried plant and fanning the smoke over your body with sacred intention. Smudging is best known as a Native American ritual, but it is found in other cultures as well. We still really like using traditional smudge, and smoke. However, it is not always possible due to allergies, public places, smoke detectors and convenience.
Also, If you are going to use sweet grass, I suggest that you cleanse the area with white sage and then use sweet grass. (we also make a sweetgrass blessing spray!)
Smudge is one of the most powerful tools that we have available to use. Any time we open our self to energy transfer, we must be sure that negative energy is cleared from the area.
Smudge Spray is the easiest way of clearing energy.
Sage: Is seen as a women's medicine, and offers strength, wisdom, and clarity of purpose. It is used to symbolize the life-giving power of women. Sage is often braided into three strands, similar to Sweetgrass, and hung within one's home. It may be tied with a ribbon in one of the colors of the medicine wheel: Red, yellow, black, white or green.
Cedar: Is used for purification and to attract positive energy, feelings, emotions and for balance. Cedar tea has been used as a healing medicine. It's high vitamin C content was essential to the prevention of scurvy, in a time when fruits and vegetables were unavailable during the long winter months. It was one of the first gifts of natural healing shared with the European peoples upon their arrival to Turtle Island (North America).
Lavender: is used to bring in beauty into a space, person or object.


text: I love the sense weather animations (I know some of you hate them). Just wondering which ones you guys have seen that are cool. I have gone through the demo to see all of them but have seen very few of them in action. For example the "wind" one is a leaf that blows but It has been plenty windy here and I have not seen it. Like sustained winds of 25 mph+ all day. Maybe the sense 2.0 will make them better?

Website was very easy to navigate the bike i chose was cheaper than anywhere else ordered on Monday night came Thursday morning with free delivery communication was good and was sent UPS tracking number straight Away.Can't ask for much better service.
The bike came 90% built just had to fit front wheel, handle bars, pedals and seat. Overall this took about half an hour. However it took about another 45 minutes to test ride it making sure everything worked. I had to adjust the seat a few times (it's rock hard and you may want to change it. As are the handle bar grips) and get the handle bars right as the forks were slightly loose in the frame. These were very minor jobs and I'm a bit of a perfectionist with new toys.

My name is Elena, I have 32 year and I writing you from a small province in Russia. I works in municipal bibliotheca and I permitted to use computer after work when possible. We have a big problem and I decided to write you this message in despair.
I having daughter Angelina - 8 years old, her father abandoned us and we live with my mother.
As result of deep financial crisis recently my mother lost job (market at she was worked is now ruined) and our situation became frightful.
Gas and electricity is very expensive in our town and we cannot use it to heating our home anymore.
The wintertime arriving and weather is very cold here already. We very disturbed and we can not imagine what to do.
Only possible way for us to heating our home is to use transportable wood burn oven which give heat from burning wood. We have a lot of wood in our town and this oven will be heating our home complete all winter for minimal cost.
Regrettably, we cannot purchase this oven in our local shop since it monetary value 8162 rouble (equivalent about 191 Euros) and we can not to collect too much money.
If you possess any old transportable wood-firing oven and if you stopped to use it, we will be very glad if you can give it to us and prepare shipping this oven to our house (200 km from Moscow). This ovens may be difference and weight 100-150kg.
I expect for your help.
Elena and my family.

Ramana: The Man Who Levitated outside the White House
Ramana's repertoire includes "flying" up to 10 metres above ground, mind reading and other forms of Indian street trickery. A household name in his native Netherlands, Ramana has performed for Queen Beatrix and has been honoured in India with the Golden Cloth award, the highest cultural honour ever given to a westerner. On 2007, the dutch magician levitated in Times Square and in front of the White House as well.
Senmaru is a japanese street artist who performs the art of Japanese traditional juggling: the Daikagura. From a teacup balanced on top of a long pole, to other objects being spinned around on the top of his umbrella. The original purpose of Daikagura was to serve as a talisman for the people, chasing away evil on behalf of the gods of the shrines. Thus, Daikagura was originally a very sacred and serious performance.
Johan Lorbeer: Defies Gravity
German performing artist Johan Lorbeer became famous in the past few years because of his "Still-Life" Performances, which took place in the public area. His installations includes "Proletarian Mural" and "Tarzan", which are famous in Germany. Several of these performances feature Lorbeer in an apparently impossible position.
With his still-life performances, this German artist seems to unhinge the laws of gravity. For hours on time, he remains, as a living work of art, in physically impossible positions. Elevated or reduced to the state of a sculpture, he interacts with the bewildered and irritated audience, whose appetite for communication rises as time goes by, often culminating in the wish to touch the artist in his superhuman, angelic appearance in order to participate in his abilities. The Secret? His arm is the supporting bar, and his real arm is hide inside his cloth.
Ho Eng Hui: Breaks Coconuts with his finger
Ho Eng Hui is 56-year-old Kung Fu king and street performer in Malaysia who uses his index finger to smash through the tough shells of coconuts. Ho broke his finger in 1993, but perservered to win an entry in the Malaysian Book of Records for breaking through 3 coconuts in just over a minute. On this video by Reuters (after the ads) he shows his skills.

Once you take a look at this collection of bizarre and sometimes useful kitchen gadgets you will realize that the human imagination has no limit. The S'mores cooker is by far my favorite, and the automatic potato peeler is downright lazy, but the Wave Box, or portable microwave is pretty special.

text: I saw a guy in game yesterday riding a four-wheeler and I wondered what you have to do to get one? Is there a quest or is it just a matter of having enough money? Do you need to get some achievement in order to qualify? Is it level restricted? In the new skill wheel I also noticed a lot of new listings. Is crafting a thing yet? If so, how does one go about it? I haven't noticed any new information on the forums but maybe I just missed it. Thanks for any responses.

MedSoc, the umbrella organisation for HYMS student societies, has won the coveted Society of the Year award at Hull University Union's HUU Awards 2014.
MedSoc's citation read: "For organising so many events for its members over the year, being so welcoming to all year groups and taking a lead role in raising money during RAG Week"
HYMS student and MedSoc president Christian Wake also won the Fundraiser of the Year award "for his exceptional work during (and in the run-up to) RAG Week, organising events such as the 48 hour CPR marathon, with over 200 students and staff members participating".
Christian said: "After several years of hard work by HYMS students, HUU have finally recognised how proactive we are and I envisage that the link between HYMS and HUU will only grow stronger."
