Product description
In Everyday Life in Ancient Rome, Lionel Casson offers a lively introduction to the society of the times. Instead of following the standard procedure of social history, he presents a series of vignettes focusing on the "ways of life" of various members of that society, from the slave to the emperor. The book opens with a description of the historical context and includes examination of topics such as the family, religion, urban and rural life, and leisure activities. This revised edition of Casson's engaging work, originally published in 1975 as Daily Life in Ancient Rome, includes two new chapters as well as full documentation of the sources.

Review quote
A series of concise sketches of key phases of life in the Roman world during its greatest period, the era of peace and prosperity in the first and second centuries A.D. Of Ages Past Magazine I was reading one of Casson's books [ Everyday Life in Ancient Rome] while waiting for [my daughter]... She was late, which would ordinarily have thrown me into a fever of apprehension, but on this occasion I was so wrapped up in the book, I didn't notice. In fact, when she did come back, quite late, I was annoyed because she had interrupted me before I had finished the book. I told Casson this, and he was infinitely pleased. -- Isaac Asimov I. Asimov: A Memoir

A just-released report by the Transport Research Wing of the Union Ministry of Road Transport and Highways on road accidents in India says that both the long-term and current decade trends are depressing.
According to the latest available figures, the number of road accidents has more than quadrupled between 1970 and 2008 from 114,100 to 484,704. Worse, fatalities shot up eight-fold to 119,860 from 14,500, while injuries shot up seven-fold to 523,193 from 70,100.
These figures are against the backdrop of a 64-fold increase in the number of registration of vehicles to 8,9618,000 from 1,401,000 over the 38-year period under consideration and a three-fold increase in road network to 3,621,507 km from 1,188,728 km.
The profile of recent trends too presents a gory picture. The 4.84 lakh accidents in 2008 were 1.1 percent higher than the 4.79 lakh accidents reported in the preceding year. But the number of 1.19 lakh fatalities in 2008 was higher by 4.7 per cent, while injuries were higher by 1.9 per cent over 2007.
The proportion of fatal accidents in the total road accidents increased since 2001 so much so that the severity of accidents in terms of persons killed per 100 accidents increased from 19.9 per cent in 2001 to 24.7 per cent in 2008 given that 1.19 lakh people were killed in 4.84 lakh accidents. The number of injuries (5.23) in 2008 exceeded the number of accidents.
However, these figures do not reflect the severity of the road accidents across the country. The report admits to under-reporting of road accidents, fatalities and injuries. Among the causes listed for under-reporting are police inability to register cases for lack of time, limited manpower and facilities and busy schedules of police stations. But the report is silent on police refusal to register accident cases in the first instance.
The other reasons for under-reporting are that hospitals and general practitioners assign other causes for road accident deaths to avoid police harassment and legal complications.
Among the States, Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu and Karnataka which together account for 30.4 per cent of the total number of registered vehicles in 2006, also took the blame for 38 per cent of the total road accidents, 28 per cent of the total number of persons killed and 35 per cent of the total injured in 2008.

UK tabloid shows Amanda Knox with ex-boyfriendJune 20, 2013 @ 10:52 am
LONDON (AP) - A British tabloid has published photos of an apparent reunion between Amanda Knox and her ex-boyfriend, who were acquitted after serving four years in prison in Italy for the murder of student Meredith Kirchner.
Knox, 25, and her Italian ex-boyfriend, Raffaele Sollecito, 29, were initially convicted of the crime and sentenced to long prison terms. An appeals court acquitted them in 2011.
Britain's Daily Mirror said Thursday that the pair had a secret reunion, publishing photos of what it said was Knox and Sollecito walking together in New York.
The photos were allegedly taken Tuesday _ the same day Italy's high court harshly faulted the appeals court that acquitted Knox and ordered a new appeals court to consider all the evidence to determine whether Knox helped kill Kirchner.

To test fasting glucose association at four loci recently identified or verified by genome-wide association (GWA) studies of European populations, we performed a replication study in two Asian populations.
We genotyped five common variants previously reported in Europeans: rs1799884 (GCK), rs780094 (GCKR), rs560887 (G6PC2–ABCB11) and both rs1387153 and rs10830963 (MTNR1B) in the general Japanese (n = 4,813) and Sri Lankan (n = 2,319) populations. To identify novel variants, we further examined genetic associations near each locus by using GWA scan data on 776 non-diabetic Japanese samples.
Fasting glucose association was replicated for the five single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at p < 0.05 (one-tailed test) in South Asians (Sri Lankan) as well as in East Asians (Japanese). In fine-mapping by GWA scan data, we identified in the G6PC2–ABCB11 region a novel SNP, rs3755157, with significant association in Japanese (p = 2.6 × 10-8) and Sri Lankan (p = 0.001) populations. The strength of association was more prominent at rs3755157 than that of the original SNP rs560887, with allelic heterogeneity detected between the SNPs. On analysing the cumulative effect of associated SNPs, we found the per-allele gradients (β = 0.055 and 0.069 mmol/l in Japanese and Sri Lankans, respectively) to be almost equivalent to those reported in Europeans.
Fasting glucose association at four tested loci was proven to be replicable across ethnic groups. Despite this overall consistency, ethnic diversity in the pattern and strength of linkage disequilibrium certainly exists and can help to appreciably reduce potential causal variants after GWA studies.

"I, along with the invited guests, loved the look and quality of this invitation. It perfectly captured what we wanted to present in a colorful and creative way."
"Loved the rainbow colors and fun fonts on this invitation. Some of the font types/sizes seemed a little strange, and choosing alternate styles resulted in a slightly offset type, but probably only noticeable to me :) Definitely a hit for a first birthday invitation!!"
"Love the design perfect for my sons 1st birthday!! quality is awesome, very durable, I got the glossy finish which put the final touches on it!"
"Great choice for an invite if you want to share pictures of your little one from the past year. There are even spaces to add more pictures to the back. Good quality paper and the glossy finish really makes it pop. Make sure to choose the modified rectangular envelopes so you don't have to pay extra postage."
"This card was one of the few that I was able to personalize exactly how I wanted. My son's 1st birthday is on Easter and I wanted to say "Somebunny is turning One" and I was able to do so with this design. Cards turned out perfect!"

Teenager cited in Plainfield home invasion
PLAINFIELD — Vermont State Police say an Essex Junction teen broke into a Plainfield home early Tuesday.
State police say Philip Hoeppner, 64, was at home on Cameron Road when he heard a noise inside his house. When Hoeppner yelled to see what the noise was, he heard a loud crash and the door to his residence opening. State police say a passer-by told Hoeppner a male juvenile had been seen running from the house into a wooded area.
Police say items had been tampered with and a piece of jewelry taken.
The juvenile was later found with the assistance of police dogs and cited on a burglary charge.

Valentino Rossi fears cost-cutting engine restrictions in 2010 will further damage MotoGP as a spectacle.
By MCN -
11 December 2009 18:29
FIM President Vito Ippolito and Dorna Sports CEO Carmelo Ezpeleta confirm today that MotoGP will run to a new 1000cc engine capacity for the 2012 season.
Following talks between MotoGP's governing body the FIM, series rights holder Dorna Sports and the MSMA in Geneva, the Commission agreed to change the maximum engine capacity of the MotoGP class to 1000cc for the 2012 season – with a limit of four cylinders and a maximum cylinder bore measurement of 81 mm.
It means there will be two World Championships in 2012 – both running to 1000cc top limit for four-cylinder engines. The brief outline of the new MotoGP regulations (the full rules will be released later)contain no mention of the word 'prototype' and the chosen bore size would allow current superbike engine configurations like Honda (76mm bore), Yamaha 78mm bore) and even BMW (at 80mm bore – currently the biggest four-cylinder bore size in WSB), though it would rule out the Desmosedici (86mm bore).
The MotoGP weight limit has also been raised by two kilos to150kg compared to the current four-cylinder WSB limit for four-cylinder bikes of 162kg.
Ippolito said: "The main changes we have decided on are new rules for the MotoGP class. We will have four cylinder engines, four-stroke of course, with a 1000cc maximum, and the bore of the cylinders will be 81mm. This base will give all the manufacturers the opportunity to start work.
At the beginning of next year we will produce the new rules in a more complete format, but that is the basis; 2012 will be the year of a new era of MotoGP."
Ezpeleta added: "It was a very important meeting to decide the future of the MotoGP class. From 2012 the bikes will have an engine capacity of up to 1000cc, have up to four cylinders and the maximum bore will be 81mm. It's a very important measurement because with this we can have all the characteristics of the engine. This has been approved and between now and the start of the 2010 season we will have another two meetings to define the rest of the specifications for this new class."
Timeline of engine changes in recent years:2002 - Introduction of 990cc 4-stroke MotoGP (instead of 2-stroke 500cc).2007 - Maximum engine capacity reduction from 990cc to 800cc.2009-2010 – Maximum engine usage (6 engines per rider in 2010).2012 - Maximum engine capacity increased to 1000cc, with a limit of 4 cylinders and a maximum 81mm cylinder bore.

Another change
Its lucky for Dorna that a recession came along so they could blame it on damaging MotoGP instead of them effing around with engine sizes. Dorna should have stuck with 990's they could've cut revs, limited top speed & fiddled with them in other ways (sorry i'm not an engineer). Apologies if i'm repeating what anyone else has said.
28 December 2009 02:24
Why not a claiming rule?
Good idea,I would love to see that,but the people incharge would never allow something so radical.
I personally can't wait for the 1000s,or the start of the new 2010 season.

It's the priemer, open class, prototype supremo series for goodness sakes. Let them do anything. Five cyclinders? Let's see eight, like MV Augusta did years ago. Carbon fiber reinforces con rods? Sure. Nitromethane injection for the tracks with really long straightaways? Of course. Just one rule: If you win the race anyone on the grid can "claim" your bike for, lets say one hundred thousand pounds sterling. Why does this have to be so difficult?

Is Tetleys Best Bitter Cosher?
Gentlemen. Good points raised by both. Cosher I really enjoy reading your analysis and erudite posting - keep them coming.
So next year and thereafter there will be a limit of 6 engines per rider - including replacement rider if the permanent rider in injured. There is nowhere in the regulations to date that stipulate that these engines must be submitted and sealed by the GP technical Director at the start of the season only that the engines must be submitted and sealed by the TD prior to their use. What time period is required to introduce a new engine is not stated. So there may be techincal developments in the factory through the season that do get brought in as later incarnations of a riders allotted engines. I think Cosher is right in that a good engine is just that, manufacturers will not have peaky and torquey engines. The electronics / mapping will be the determining factor for differing types of tracks.
'Costs' is such a ethereal term to me in a motorcycle racing context. One can only speculate that the largest cost part of a new engine is the design and tooling rather than manufacture. How much does this contribute to the total expense of running a GP season? I maintain that logistics / number of team personnel must be the largest part of this equation. Not easy to reign this in. A more sensible calendar would help. Two separate trips to the States in a month. Laguna - Brno - Indy? Hmmmm... Good for Rollie Free and Rawdawg no doubt but pretty damn expensive. Qatar - what's the point of that? Is the oil money that good, and in our carbon aware times running all those night lights is a bit naughty. Undoubtedly it cannot be easy organising a calendar that suits all. MotoGP, WSBK and those silly four wheeled things of Bernies, not to mention climatic suitability and politicking. All the proposed regulation tweaking to date just seem like little stuff to me beyond the F1 style engine option for privateer teams. The optimist in me hopes some backyard genius engineer will work a bit of magic on a proddie engine and give a few factories a scare. sigh.... what chance with aliens running the world though.......

A vector quantization scheme based on the classified vector quantization (CVQ) concept, called predictive classified vector quantization (PCVQ), is presented. Unlike CVQ where the classification information has to be transmitted, PCVQ predicts it, thus saving valuable bit rate. Two classifiers, one operating in the Hadamard domain and the other in the spatial domain, were designed and tested. The classification information was predicted in the spatial domain. The PCVQ schemes achieved bit rate reductions over the CVQ ranging from 20 to 32% for two commonly used color test images while maintaining the same acceptable image quality. Bit rates of 0.70-0.93 bits per pixel (bpp) were obtained depending on the image and PCVQ scheme used

In most families, moms are the caregivers, and most moms have a medicine "box" or tray with all kinds of cures for middle-of-the-night pains and fevers. If it's not in the "box," a quick trip to a local 24-hour pharmacy usually secures the needed treatment. When that doesn't work, a doctor's visit secures a prescription to be filled at the local pharmacy. But for most situations a caring mom, Mother Nature and over-the-counter medications get children well and avoid unnecessary physician visits and expenses.

How To Use A Motorcycle Clutch
New riders have to learn how to use a motorcycle clutch. The clutch is usually a hand operated lever, on the left handlebar of the motorcycle. To disengage the gears, the lever is squeezed and held. While the clutch is in this pulled in condition the gears can change through use of the gear shift. It takes some practice to learn to use a motorcycle clutch smoothly. Motorcycle clutches can also be adjusted through various mechanisms depending on the style of clutch, either cable or hydraulic.
To use a motorcycle clutch, you need:
- Motorcycle
- Squeeze the clutch lever smoothly. This disengages the gears. Riders may want to coast in this condition, or use it to shift down or up in gear, or to place the motorcycle in neutral.
- On accelerating, be smooth. Let the clutch out smoothly as you apply throttle. Too much clutch too soon and the engine may stall and the motorcycle might fall over if starting from a standstill.
- For low speed maneuvering, feather the clutch. Moving in and around parking lots riders may need to feather the clutch in and out for power needs, without fully letting the clutch out. This also takes some practice to get a feel for.
Make sure to practice how to use a motorcycle clutch in a large vacant parking lot or other training facility such as a motorcycle safety course. Be aware that first time users may have a tendency to let the clutch out too fast and dump the motorcycle, so it's best to also have another person around for safety.

Home | World | Germany Agrees to Bailout Greece Once a Year For the Next Eighty Years Germany Agrees to Bailout Greece Once a YSubmitted by dexterszyd on Thu, 07/18/2013 - 23:07
FRANKFURT - Germany - There were cheers in Athens as the news filtered through today that German finance minister Wolfgang Schauble had agreed to a 20 billion euro payout per annum for Greece for the next eighty years.
"We realise they refuse to pay back the money they owe every time we ask so today I have committed the German taxpayers to bail out the Greeks on a yearly basis for the next eighty years. This way the Greeks can keep their way of life and carry on with not paying any taxation or servicing the debt they owe us. This is a required action unfortunately otherwise the EU and euro would be in trouble," Mr Schauble told German news crews at an impromptu news conference today.
As soon as the news came through about the jackpot deal, people took to the streets all over Greece cheering their German benefactors.
"This is a glorious day. It means I can keep my porsche boxter which I bought purely from the proceeds of EU subsidies. I have never paid an ounce of tax and I enjoy my 75,000 euro salary for cleaning park benches twice a week. I think I'll be off to the coast for another four month holiday to celebrate," Nikos Makalarios, 43, told local Greek news stations.
Another Greek said: "It's not enough. We want more."

Awesome satire
Thanks for the smile ^_^ But clearly this journalist didn't complete his research, not getting the German taxpayer's side of the story. Though, clearly, this is a case of propaganda, so of course they wouldn't include the German people's reaction ^_^
"Moderation in temper is always a virtue; but moderation in principle is always a vice." -- Thomas Paine
Who is paying whom? Who is kidding whom? Merry-Go-Round?
European Web of Debt: Greece (smallest debt), Portugal, Ireland, Spain, Italy € 1.4 trillion(largest debt on chart). Who could possibly be larger debtors in Europe than these hopelessly indebted nations?
- #2 France € 1.8 trillion
- #1 Germany € 2.2 trillion
How much would a debtor debit, if a debtor could debit debt?

For Freedom!
The World is my country, all mankind is my brethren, to do good is my religion.
Good Limerick. (Here's a suggestion)
How much debt would debtor debit, if a debtor could debit debt?
Yet again a small hopelessly indebted European nation...
... is gifted promissory notes by a large hopelessly indebted European nation.
Why does Germany pretend to be assisting Greece pay Greek debt? Does not Germany already have the largest national debt of all European nations? Why does France not pretend even more?
English to German translation:
Warum täuscht Deutschland vor, Griechenland-Lohn Griecheschuld zu unterstützen? Nicht hat Deutschland bereits die größte Staatsverschuldung aller europäischen Nationen?
English to Greek translation:
Γιατί η Γερμανία διατείνεται πως να βοηθούν στην Ελλάδα πληρώνουν οι Έλληνες χρέους; Δεν τη Γερμανία έχουν ήδη το μεγαλύτερο εθνικό χρέος όλων των ευρωπαϊκών εθνών;

No it does not
. If you do not place the key into the slot the key is an idiot... it won't have any data to give. If you don't believe me, take your car to the dealership with the key in the slot and get a reading... then take the key and put it in your pocket and drive for a BIT AND GO BACK... The data that your key will have stored will be the data that you first arrived with.
I never argued that the "on board computer" doesn't store files so you can move on with your argument.
And, the thread isn't pointless it's asking a question that many would like to know the answer to. By the way, you had the option of keeping on past it before you clicked to enter... enough said no? At the end of the day there are those that have adhered to the breakin period and those of us that haven't... I fall into the haven't/ didn't category and my cars are relatively trouble free. And I'd like to add that I've never had any issue getting warranty work done even when it was obvious that I had mods...

Key West 2014 Day 9, Atlanta, GA > Camilla, GA
... the HOV there was no drama, and I was out of Atlanta in 45 minutes. Key West is about 1500 km south of Atlanta so the original plan was to do it in 2 days, however leaving a little early allowed me to put in about 330 kms and reduce my daily mileage requirements. Tomorrow I will put in a full day and try to get south of Tampa, leaving an easy day for arrival into Key West on Saturday.
Name That City!
... t want my dad to wait to see everyone else's guesses first.
Some of these are gimmies and others are tough. Not every city we drove through is posted, and sometimes we couldn't get an entire skyline because it was so big or we had to use a landmark. Good luck!

One fine summer evening in 2011, our apartment's air conditioning system broke. As the temperature rose into the mid-90's and our brains began to addle, an idea came to me.

About Don Ohlgren
Languages: English, Español, Français
About: Semi retired businessman with property interests in Panama and Victoria BC, loves to have his and other homes he manages utilized by other people who can enjoy the amenities of these properties.
Wife is best selling author who also travels with Don extensively to Panama to enjoy the laid back lifestyle here at Las Lajas Panama.
Why Don Ohlgren chose Playa Las Lajas
While Panama is known for beaches with deadly undertows, this Las Lajas Beach is famous for its safest water conditions.
You can literally walk straight out 1/2 kilometer during low tide.
High tide gives you great waves for boogie boarding or just enjoying the warm, warm water and fresh air of Panama.
What makes this house unique
Go out in the morning to the beach for a walk. Look to the right and you will see no-one for miles.
Look to the left and maybe someone swimming at the beach resort about 3 km down the beach.
Private and secluded, this will give you total serenity but yet have neighbors in the same development.
The beach stretches to the horizon in both directions.

UC President Janet Napolitano said state support for UC students remains near the lowest it has been in more than 30 years. The university receives about $460 million less today than it did before the recession."Despite the level of public disinvestment, its research and academic reputation have been largely sustained," Napolitano said. "Entire swaths of the California economy — from biotechnology to the wine industry — have sprung from UC research." Read an overview of the budget.

On Ninja Tune
Stateless were formed in 2003 by singer-songwriter Chris James, who enlisted band members Kidkanevil (programming, samplers, turntables), Rod Buchanan-Dunlop (keys, FX), James Sturdy (drums) and John Taylor (bass) to bring his compositions to life. In true rock-fairytale style, their first demo, 'Prism #1', was picked up and playlisted by Radio 1, leading to a record deal with Sony. When Sony merged with BMG, though, the band found themselves in limbo and chose to move to respected Berlin label !K7, who released the album internationally in July 2007. Stateless toured the album all over Europe with new band members Justin Percival (bass/vocals), and Dave Levin (drums), coming to the attention of legendary producer DJ Shadow, who enlisted Chris to sing on two songs on his album, 'The Outsider'. This was followed by a huge world tour with over 80 shows in 20 countries.
For their follow-up 'Matilda', the band, along with the help of producer Damian Taylor (Bjork, the Prodigy), decided to push their combination of classic songwriting and story-telling into deeper electronic territory. Soon after meeting Taylor backstage at a Bjork show on her Volta tour, James sent him some of the new Stateless demos, which Taylor loved, and they began working on the album. The process was complex. The band recorded their parts either at home or in a recording studio in Hackney, London, and then would send all the parts to Taylor in Vancouver, who would start applying his production techniques. "I think I got overly obsessive," confides James. "I got really bad insomnia. I literally couldn't stop thinking about it. It wasn't a very healthy place at all, it was quite a dark time." Towards the end of 2009 James flew out to Vancouver to record in Taylor's studio in the forest on the Sunshine Coast, and it was here that the pair did the final production work on the album.
But it wasn't just in terms of technology that things changed with this record. As James explains, "The production is much more electronic on this album but the songwriting is quite different from the first album, too. It's more based on surreal stories and characters, it's much more cinematic. It really blurs the lines between fantasy and reality." It's a record he's rightly very proud of, both for the passion and commitment that went into making it, but also for the result. "It's like a strange and beautiful dreamscape, " he says. "It's dark, surreal, mysterious, full of weird and wonderful characters. It's a big piece of work. I hope that people get that, when they hear it. I think it's gonna take quite a few listens before it really sinks in. It's a proper album, it works as a whole. I want people to do the Pink Floyd thing, and listen to it from start to finish really loud on good headphones."

Aug 21, 2013With the exception of a couple of events Sydney 2000 involves little more than mashing buttons as fast as you can in order to make your athlete run, jump, throw etc, a mechanic that hasn't changed since Track and Field was released back in the mid 80's.
All together there are twelve Olympic activities to take part in and, if you can find a group of mates to play with, it can provide some competitive fun for a short time. The novelty wears of pretty quickly however and it'll soon disappear into the cupboard not to be seen again for another four years.… Expand
If you are a hard core gamer, but a lousy button masher (no-not an oxymoron) you will have a sucky time. That's as fair as I can be as non-masher.
The only way I can recommend this game is if you have a bunch of friends to play against head-to-head.

We are, of course, spa fanatics at HotelChatter, but if we had to pick just one skincare brand that we would chase to the ends of the earth, it'd almost certainly be Ila, a supremely decadent UK brand that calls itself "beyond organic" because it really is something more than a box-ticking exercise - it uses "wild-harvested" biodynamic ingredients from artisan sources around the globe, and Ila products are genuinely unlike any you've used before.
Ila has been hovering around hotel spa land for a couple of years now, but it has just opened its first standalone spa - or Ila Only, as it calls it - at Raas in Jodhpur, India. Treatments are pretty juliab 2014-11-07T09:00:01-05:00 And the Second Planet Hollywood Property Will Be In... http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2014/10/22/145332/47 <![CDATA[

 Rumors have been swirling for quite some time about where the second Planet Hollywood hotel would land (Las Vegas being the first, of course.) First, it was said that China, Panama, and Qatar were the front runners. Then, over two years later, we wondered if Orlando could make sense. This week, the announcement was officially made, and it looks like we have a Cinderella on our hands: Goa, India, has pulled off the upset.
 Utorda Beach will be the exact location of the new beachfront Planet Hollywood, which is scheduled to open by the end of this year. To be managed by Wyndham, it will feature 115 rooms, 15 luxury tents, spa, wakeandwander 2014-10-23T10:37:27-05:00 A Sneak Peek at The First Airport Andaz Hotel in Delhi http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2014/10/14/134358/10 <![CDATA[

The Andazms won't stop coming!
We gave you a little update last week on the new Andaz Hotels expected to open in the next few years. Thanks to a connected tipster, we've got some scoop on one of those upcoming hotels--The Andaz Delhi in India.
The hotel will be close to the Delhi International Airport in a mixed-use project called, Aerocity. This will be the first airport hotel for the Andaz brand. According to the architect firm, the hotel will have seven stories, 446 guest rooms, ballroom space, meeting rooms, two rooms, gardens, fitness center, a spa and an outdoor pool. Sounds pretty swish for an airport hotel, we have to say.

What women want from hotels is a subject that's been on our minds recently. We're pretty sure the answer isn't cooking lessons and a candle. And we gave a few of our own suggestions here.
Now a hotel in New Delhi has come up with another idea: a pretty extreme, security first, female-only package, to combat the appalling crimes against women that have been engulfing India in recent months (one rape every 30 minutes, if you've missed it).
The Kamal Single Lady Traveller program ("kamal" is Hindi for lotus flower) at the Leela Palace includes:
· Airport transfers with a trusted driver;
· Female staff for all interaction (check-in, concierge, butler, housekeeping);

The bad news, guys, is summer is ending.
The good news is, winter means opportunities to do things you couldn't face in summer – like sleeping outdoors in India. Especially when it's tiger season.
This month sees the (re)opening of three tented camps from Sujan in Rajasthan: Sher Bagh, in Ranthambhore, the Serai in Jaisalmer, and Jawai Leopard Camp.
Sher Bagh (top pic) isn't new, but it's been completely renovated for the 2014 season, with all tents getting their ensuite bathrooms refurbished and enlarged (yes, ensuite bathrooms being enlarged - as you can imagine, these aren't your ordinary tents). Two new suites have also been created – one with a walled garden, one with a private juliab 2014-09-12T09:01:10-05:00 Search HotelChatter Search HotelChatter string http://www.hotelchatter.com/search/
