Hiking and camping can provide some of the greatest fun you can have in the great outdoors. The quality of your equipment goes a long way to creating either a wonderful experience that you'll want to repeat or a nightmare that you'd rather forget.
How to choose the right camping and hiking equipment
A hiking and camping adventure can be a great test of your resourcefulness. Purchasing the equipment used for hiking and camping can prove to be the first challenge!
Price
Cheap camping or hiking equipment often appears attractive at first glance; however it rarely proves a sound investment. There are exceptions of course – aren't there always? You can sometimes make large savings when buying last year's model; whether it is a tent, a backpack or a pair of hiking boots, fashions change and the equipment manufacturers regularly update their lines. If you can find a genuine sale of quality brand products then you may be able to make substantial savings.
Stick with known brands that provide a guarantee with their product. Quality brands will rarely let you down – you don't want to find yourself on the trail with faulty hiking gear!
Hiking Boots
Do invest in a good pair of hiking boots. There are many top quality brands to choose from – the decision is more about the type of terrain you are likely to be hiking in and the weight of the boot. Waterproof hiking boots will cost you more but they are almost always worth the additional price. You can't guarantee the weather when you are out hiking and wet boots will lead to blisters and great discomfort.
There are several reputable online retailers of hiking boots. But, a word of warning … before purchasing hiking boots online always ensure you've tried on the boots in a retail store. Uncomfortable boots can cause misery on your hiking trip and have the potential for causing danger if you cannot maintain your footing due to discomfort.
When purchasing hiking boots look for sturdy uppers made from leather or a combination of leather and nylon, breathable liners, reinforced rubber heels, well constructed toes and solid arch support. Soles will usually be rubber or a combination of rubber and polyurethane.
Don't forget good quality hiking socks – preferably wool.
Tents
When choosing your tent, consider the seasons in which you like to hike and go camping. A hiker who enjoys camping late into the fall may require a four-season tent or even a convertible tent. The downside to the four-season tent is the additional weight – they are often 10 to 20 percent heavier than a three season style. A convertible tent will allow you to adjust the ventilation and to add and remove poles as required.
Three-season tents are designed for use from spring through to fall in temperate climates. Whilst they are unlikely to collapse under and inch or two of snow, a heavier snow fall may cause problems. Four-season tents usually incorporate extra poles to strengthen the walls against strong winds and heavy snow falls. These tents are usually dome-shaped so that there are no flat surfaces where snow can accumulate.
Convertible tents are designed for four seasons but usually allow the removal of one or more poles to convert them into three-season tents.
When purchasing a tent pay attention to the capacity rating suggested by the manufacturer – these sometimes tend to be over optimistic. Check out the tent in its assembled form and see if there is enough space. If you are looking for a two-person tent then test it out with your camping partner and make sure there is enough room for your gear – not just you and your sleeping bags.
Always use a ground sheet or tarpaulin under your tent. It will protect the underside from tearing and extend the life of your tent.
Sleeping Bags
A sleeping bag keeps you warm by trapping air inside that is warmed by your body heat. Sleeping bags have a comfort rating which represents the minimum temperature in which the user should be comfortable. For example a user of a +30 sleeping bag should remain comfortable in areas where the temperature is not below 30 degrees Fahrenheit.
Comfort ratings on sleeping bags should be used as a guide only. If you have a choice (and the budget) pick the sleeping bag that provides more warmth.
Down or synthetic?
A synthetic sleeping bag is usually the best choice for kids and beginner hikers. It is cheaper, it dries more quickly if it gets wet but it is heavier. Down is usually the choice of the experienced hiker. It has extraordinary insulating properties and offers tremendous warmth. It can be compacted into a small space and it will outperform a synthetic sleeping for years (or perhaps decades). Down is a lot more expensive than synthetic but considering its life expectancy it could be considered an investment. If there is a downside it is that if it gets wet it takes a long while to dry.
Shape
Mummies – close-fitting, narrow bags with a fitted hood. They are wider at the shoulder and taper to a narrow foot space. Their shape can be restrictive but their narrowness makes them efficient users of space, they offer great heat retention and they are often light in weight.
Rectangular – these are usually warm weather sleeping bags; they have room to move, they tend to be heavy and/or bulky. They're useful for children or family camping holidays but are not used by backpackers or serious hikers because their inadequate insulation and their bulkiness. Their shape allows too much heat to escape the bag.
Semi-Rectangular – wide at the shoulders and hips but narrow at the feet. There is more space than a mummy bag which means there is more air to keep warm but they can be a good choice for someone who doesn't like the restriction of a mummy bag. Some models have hoods.
This is only a start on the equipment used for hiking, however, it will serve as an introduction to some of the gear you will find when you visit your local camping store.

*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
The approach of spring often encourages homeowners to start considering home improvements and repairs. However, before you start getting out the hammer and nails or hiring a contractor consider if your home improvements may be eligible for a home improvement tax deduction.
The first thing the homeowner must understand is the difference between a home improvement and a home repair. Simply put, a home repair is classified as fixing a problem. For example, repairing a hole in the roof, fixing a leak or repainting a room would be considered repairs. On the other hand, remodeling a kitchen, adding a couple of rooms, building a garage or installing a swimming pool would be classed as improvements. These improvements add to the living amenity of the home's owners and usually add value to the home.
The Internal Revenue Service sets out strict guidelines on how a homeowner can claim a home improvement tax deduction. It is strongly recommended that before you hire a contractor or start any home improvement works that you obtain advice from you tax consultant or from the local office of the IRS
Tax deductions for home improvements can fall into any of several different categories. A medical condition that required providing disabled access to home would normally be classed as a home improvement.
There is a special home improvement tax deduction for victims of Hurricane Katrina. Consult with the IRS regarding the Katrina Emergency Tax Relief Act as it increases the permitted qualifying home improvement loans.
If you are planning a home improvement to an area of your home that is in need of repair you may be able to include the repair as an improvement. The Tax Act states that where a repair is carried out in the same area of the home that is being remodeled then the repair can be included as part of the improvement project. So, if you are planning on remodeling your kitchen don't forget to take care of the leaking pipes at the same time and claim the entire project as a deduction.
Tax Credits vs Tax Deduction
Tax credits can also provide significant savings to the homeowner. Whilst a tax deduction for home improvement can reduce the amount of income on which tax ist payable, a tax credit directly reduces the tax itself. Tax credits are available for many types of home improvements. For example, installing insulation, adding energy-efficient windows, and some types of highly efficient equipment for cooling and heating, and solar water heating may all qualify for tax credits.
The IRS has many helpful publications to assist homeowners who are about to embark on home improvements so a visit to their website or calling into a branch office will usually provide the homeowner with a wealth of information.
And when you begin your home improvements remember to maintain accurate records of spending and save all receipts … this will assist you enormously when the time comes to claim your home improvement tax deduction.

When young, we all dream of Retirement, The Good Life , the never ending round of pleasure, and it certainly won't hurt thinking about How, When and Where you would retire in order to prepare for this Utopia. The reality of course is there is no such paradise., so if you are wise you'll take
Early steps to realize those dreams, while you can
The following are a number of tips to ensure you are set for life.
1. Money as always is the deciding factor for all the above questions Many wait until the age of 65 before finally deciding to retire, and by that time unless you have made provisions life can drastically change financially.
2. Nowadays, many people retire even earlier and by following some tips that will save money, a person can retire early and enjoy it.
3. The first thing you MUST do is manage the expenses. It is a Fact that big expenses such as a mortgage, even a car will take some time to finish. By cutting down on luxury items and getting something similar for a more affordable value, the money saved could be used for reducing those debts. A good example, instead of buying lunch out everyday, you could make lunch at home, take it to work, it doesn't sound much. But over a year it all adds up.
4. The next step to early retirement is to accumulate capital. At an early age, you can start saving into a reliable plan.. Some Banks and Insurance companies have good rates which in the long term will possibly even double the money you have put aside over a period of ten years..
5. Lastly, you can have more money by investing it. Studies have shown that there are many places where money can be doubled. You can do it through bonds, putting some money in the stock market, purchasing some real estate property and even putting up a business.
A little money spent wisely on sound investments is another way in helping you amass a certain amount of money and make the dream of retirement happen As YOU would like.
The task is not easy., but then whoever said it would be. Some people retire in total poverty with no chance. Don't be one of those. There will be times you will be tempted to buy something. It just takes a lot of planning, patience and self-control to make it happen., but go on. Live that Dream
Retirement is not the end as I can testify Personally. It is a NEW beginning. It is a another Phase of life where one chapter closes and we move forward with confidence to face another.
It is a time that you may be able to restructure your life and spend more time with the family or give more to the community.
New opportunities may arise from it and by showing the same amount of Vigour and Courage as you have done in your working life so many times, the options are endless. I am a 68year old Pensioner, in ENGLAND and refuse to sit in any rocking chair. And all the above tips apply to wherever you happen to live. We all face the same problems when we retire.
The choice is up to you what to do next. Follow my lead, whether you are still working OR Retired, start a Business online to really help those decreasing Pensions.. Click on the following to see what I mean.

Advertising for hotels is very important in reaching and interesting people so that they will choose to make the hotel their lodging while in the area for business or pleasure. If you are responsible for the advertising campaign, you should recognize that there are important things that potential guests look for when reviewing the suitability of a hotel. Here are some of the features that should be part of the advertising if you want to appeal to guests.
Most guests want to know what the rooms look like. If there are different types of rooms, images of each should be available for guests to look at. If there are courtyard styles and parking lot styles, that's probably important to let customers know. Some hotels have balconies with certain rooms or perhaps access to a private beach from the room. Those features are important for guests to know when they are picking their preferences.
Of course, the prices of the various rooms will be important to guests who are asking about reservations or who are browsing a website. If there are discounts, they should be clearly stated. If prices are different on weekends than on weekdays, guests don't want to be surprised by the bill.
Advertising can piggyback on nearby interest sites or activities. Not only does this make the advertising less expensive, but it also means more traffic for the hotel site. Links can be a great way to promote your facility with little additional cost. Let guests know if there are festivals, concerts, sports events and other activities that will draw visitors. You may find they will stay in a hotel that has the most information about where the event is and how to get there from the hotel.
Advertising should include information about where guests can find food and drink. Many hotels provide information within the rooms about local eating and drinking establishments. Those websites that give you information about where the nearest Italian restaurant is, or where you can find a sports bar will be of more help. This can be done through links. A well-designed website will invite browsers to look at dining choices, but will bring the guest smoothly back to the hotel site.
When guests are looking at hotel advertising to determine whether the facility is appropriate for business trip stays, they need to know what business amenities are available. Is Internet, even high-speed Internet available. How about fax machines and copiers? Some hotels provide quiet office space or cubicles for guests. If you have these extras, it's important for guests to know about them. It could make the difference in whether or not your hotel is the one selected.
Even the most complete advertising campaign is of no value if it is not reaching the right people. You must be creative in getting the advertising in front of people who are most likely to use it. The Internet makes it possible to link activities and lodging easily. Take advantage of this feature to gain more traffic.
Advertising for hotels must make use of different media forms. The Internet is widely used now, but don't lose site of brochures, pamphlets, television spots and others. The cost will vary in effectiveness, but should be kept in mind when scheduling marketing exposure.

When the economy slows, tourism has a tendency to drop. Increasing hotel marketing efforts can help to reduce the negative impact on revenues during difficult economic time. Campaigns to improve the visibility of the facility and to keep the number of visitors steady or increasing can be mounted on several levels. In addition to reaching more people, you must improve the appeal to the people that are receiving the message.
The marketing campaign can promote the location in which a hotel is situated. Perhaps the climate is appealing, or there may be scenic views and wildlife sightings that cannot be found elsewhere. If a hotel is set in a historical center, that fact can be played up when advertising. Even prime shopping nearby can be a draw for many people.
Service quality is important to visitors. Guests of the hotel want to know if the rooms are maintained in a clean condition and in good repair. If the hotel is marketed as a five-star facility, there are expectations that the sink stoppers will hold the water. Amenities such as Internet connections are no longer a luxury item; they are expected for all but the cheapest lodging. Marketing efforts should let visitors know what makes a facility receive the highest rankings, and why the particular hotel deserves the award.
A hotel may increase its appeal by adding activities available within the hotel itself. For example, if space is available, the hotel might promote small or large business conference sites. In spite of the ease of teleconferences, many companies want to move employees away from the regular work duties and activities to focus on training or promotional conferences.
The marketing campaign can focus on unique features of the hotel or the rooms. If rooms have themes, that can be appealing to some visitors. Some boutique hotels with quirky or unusual themes have been increasing in number around the world. These facilities are growing in popularity simply because they are different. Marketing such ideas is a simple process. Sometimes only small touches are needed to add to the appeal of a room.
In addition to the general location where the hotel sits, there may be specific points of interest that will draw visitors to a hotel if they know about other activities in the region. National parks, lessor known museums and cultural centers, fishing sites or tours through a unique area can also be used effectively in marketing campaigns.
Events of interest such as fairs, festivals and races also bring people, as do music concerts and shows.
Marketing campaigns can emphasize some of the extra touches that are provided by the hotel. Do they provide shuttle transportation to the airport or the convention center? Maybe they have 24 hour room service. An exercise room is another popular extra amenities.
Hotel marketing can mean the difference between operating in the red and continuing to attract customers. Using creativity and imagination is always important. Perhaps just as important is the recommendation to make certain that your marketing campaign words match reality.

The town of Whitby has been established for more than 1,400 years and is found on the north east coast of England. Because of its age, there are plenty of Whitby attractions, which provide you with details of this town and the surrounding areas history.
One of the most popular attractions in this town is Whitby Abbey that is located on a cliff top that provides it with views looking down over the town and its harbour. The abbey itself dates back to the 7th Century when the town was first established and was founded by a Northumbrian Princess called Hilda. Today within the abbey itself, you will find a shrine for St Hilda.
The first abbey that was built on this site was in fact destroyed by a party of Vikings, but it was then rebuilt by the Normans and stands now as a testament to their building skills and is well worth a visit.
Another attraction, which has proved to be extremely popular with visitors to Whitby, is the Captain Cook Memorial Museum. This is housed in a stunning 17th Century House located on the harbour side and is where the world-renowned explorer James Cook stayed whilst serving his apprenticeship back in 1746.
Inside the rooms have been furnished to replicate what the rooms would have looked like whilst James Cook was residing in them. Plus you will find plenty of interesting artefacts, maps and manuscripts that provide details of his voyages. So if you want something to do especially if the weather has turned a little inclement a visit to this museum will keep you entertained.
Along with the Abbey and the Captain Cook Memorial Museum, if you have kids with you then plan a visit to the Whitby Wizard. This is the first science centre museum to be opened in North Yorkshire and was built and is run by Dag Kjelldahl who is originally from Norway. Here both you and the kids can have some fun trying out the various hands on exhibits of which there are nearly a hundred of them that the museum has to offer. It allows you the chance to learn things about not just about yourself but also about the environment in which we live.
However, another one of the Whitby attractions that is proving popular with visitors to the town is the Whitby Ghost Walks. These take place in the evenings and commence at 8.00pm and last for around 75 minutes. During the tour with your host Harry Collett, also known as the Man in Black, you will discover more about the supernatural aspects of the town. Plus you will be told tales by Harry of murder and mystery that will keep you in suspense throughout the whole tour.
When you visit Whitby, you are sure to find plenty of different places to stay to ensure that your visit is a pleasant one. You can choose from small guest houses and bed & breakfasts or the extra features that can be found in larger hotels.

The City of Plymouth, which is located on the South West coast of England, is becoming extremely popular with tourists from around the world. Today there are plenty of Plymouth attractions that one can enjoy during a visit to this historic city.
The city is famous as being the place where the Mayflower with the Pilgrims onboard sailed from to journey to the New World. It is at the base of the West Pier you will find a white archway, which was erected back in 1934 and commemorates the spot from where the Mayflower sailed. On top of these, you will see both the flags of the United Kingdom and United States flying each day.
The archway that was built in 1934 incorporates into it the granite monument that was originally erected on the site back in 1891. More commonly, you will find that today this particular site is referred to by locals as the Mayflower Steps or the Memorial Gateway. Along with this attraction, there are plenty of others one can visit during your time in Plymouth and below we take a look at some more.
1. National Marine Aquarium – This is one of the best aquariums in all of the UK and is located near to the center of Plymouth harbour area. Along with freshwater fish, this attraction has a large number of seawater fish that one can view. Plus there is the Shark Theatre where you can go and watch the sharks that the place houses being fed. Also, it has the facility available that allows you to walk directly under the sharks as they swim around in their holding tank.
2. Prysten House – This was built during 1940 and is now a working museum. Inside you will find a model showing what Plymouth looked like during the 1620's. Plus it also houses tapestries that depict how the English colonized America. As you enter the house, you will see a gravestone for the Captain of the US Brig Argus who died on the 15 August 1813 during a battle in the English Channel.
3. Plymouth Gin Distillery – This is one of the oldest surviving buildings in the city and it has been here that for more than 200 years now the distinctive Plymouth Gin has been made. It is the house where all the Pilgrims who sailed from England to the New World would meet before boarding their ships.

When trying to find out the various different Tenby attractions that you can visit during a stay in this town the best place to start your search is by going online. There are a number of different websites that provide a good source of information on what you can do and places that you can visit not just in Tenby but in the surrounding area.
The village of Tenby has been around for many centuries and became an important location for the Normans. In fact, the ruins of the Norman castle can still be seen and attracts a large number of tourists to the area. Although most of the castle has now disappeared there, are still important parts of it still standing and one of these is the West Gate that is also known as the Five Arches.
Along with the castle, ruins there are plenty of other attractions that this town now offers to its visitors. Below we take a look at just what some of these are.
1. Tenby Museum and Art Gallery – This is actually located in the ruins of the castle and covers all aspects of the areas natural history and geology and archaeology. Plus it also houses information relating to the history of the town during the 12th Century. Whilst the art gallery contains works by local artistes Augustus and Gwen John as well as Charles Norris. It is these works that allow you to see a view of what the town of Tenby and its surrounding area looked like during the 19th Century.
2. Tudor Merchant's House – This is located on Quay Hill and has been lovingly restored to show what a medieval dwelling looked like in the 15th Century. As well as its Flemish chimney on the walls, you will see paintings that are similar in design to Flemish weaving patterns.
3. St Mary's Parish Church, Tenby – This is the largest parish church to be found in Wales today and was home to Giraldus Cambrensis (also known as Gerald the Welshman) who was a renowned religious leader during the 13th Century.
4. Caldy Island – The main attraction of the island is the Cistercian Abbey that is home to a group of Benedictine monks who established a community here in 1906. Yet although a new group of monks only established themselves here so early in the 20th Century, the abbey itself was built and has stood on the same spot since the 12th Century.
If you are going to visit this of the Tenby Attractions, we have mentioned you need to allow around 2 hours visiting time. Plus in order to get to the island you will need to take a short boat crossing from Tenby to it. The boats leave from the Quay every 20 minutes on a Saturday during July and August and the actual journey to the island takes just 20 minutes to complete.
There are lots of guest houses, hotels and bed and breakfasts (B&Bs) in and around Tenby. This means that most of the year it's easy to find somewhere to stay but if your visit is at the height of the tourist season, it's worth playing safe and booking your hotel room ahead of your visit.

Not only when you visit the Lake District will you be amazed at the beauty of the landscape and how it changes through out the seasons, but how easy it can be to access the remote areas. If you are looking for the ideal location to base yourself from during your vacation in this area then it is best that you consider the town of Keswick. This town is located right on the shores of Derwent Water and yet is located on the main thorough fares which can take you to various other locations through out the region. When it comes to choosing the right kind of Keswick lodging to stay in you have a number of different options available to you. Below we take a look at just what kinds of facilities are available to those considering taking some time out to visit this area of natural beauty in the UK.
Keswick Hotels
There are a number of different hotels that are located in and around the town and all of which can meet your particular budgetary requirements. Each one will be annually inspected by the local tourism board to ensure that the quality of accommodation and the standard of service they pay to their clients is the highest possible. You can either decide to stay in those hotels which are family run or you may decide to stay in one which is run by one of the more well known hotel groups. Often they provide you with all mod cons and some may even provide additional facilities such as swimming pools, gyms and saunas.
Keswick Bed and Breakfast
These are ideal for those people whose budgets are somewhat limited, or who are looking for a more homely atmosphere to their stay. Generally this type of accommodation is located in the owner's own home where they reside as well. However the facilities that they may offer to their guests can sometimes be less than what a cheap hotel in Keswick can offer. In some cases you may find that you do not have an en suite bathroom but instead have to share a communal one with other paying guests.
Keswick Self Catering
These are often houses or cottages that the owners rent out generally for weeks at a time and provide you with all the comforts you can expect to find in your own home. However you will need to do everything for yourself during the time that you stay in this type of accommodation and the costs can be quite exorbitant. It is important to remember that you may well find yourself not receiving your deposit back if the property is not well cared for during your stay, so read carefully through the small print before you make the decision to book this kind of accommodation. However booking this kind of Keswick lodging means that you have the freedom to do as you please and are not restricted to being out of your room by a certain time each day in order for the housekeeping to get in and tidy up after you.

The seaside resort of Eastbourne has been popular with locals and tourists alike since the Stone Age. It is close to the famous Beachy Head chalk cliffs, which rise a dramatic 530 feet above the sea level. You may recognize them if you've seen the film Quadrophenia. Or more recently they were the backdrop to a sketch in "Little Britain". The cliffs themselves are marked by a prominent lighthouse to make sure that ships on the busy English Channel keep their distance.
The main focus of Eastbourne nowadays is to keep tourists happy. There are four miles of beach, which is comprised mainly of shingle, and the sea front itself is lined with a wide range of hotels and guest houses – be sure to book a sea view room if you want to ensure that you will be able to watch the ocean from your room when you stay in a hotel in Eastbourne.
As you wander around the town and surrounding South Downs, you may well recognize areas made famous by authors such as Lewis Carroll and Charles Dickens, who have made Eastbourne their home over the years.
Fans of "Little Britain" may recognize the promenade in the town – the character Emily Howard strolled along it during various appearances.
The Eastbourne Pier stretches 1,000 feet out to sea and features a camera obscura (a much larger version of a pinhole camera), which has been on site since Victorian times and has been fully restored in recent years. Whilst there are no longer any theatres on the pier – although there are several in the town itself – the pier caters for a younger crowd with a nightclub and bar instead. The pier also regularly holds the International Birdman competition as well as a local raft race where rafters have to get round the pier whilst avoiding the water cannon that is aiming at them.
Other events in Eastbourne include a 4 day international air show – be sure to book your room early if you stay when this is on. The show normally features the famous Red Arrows display team as well as holding other flights to commemorate the Battle of Britain.
History buffs will want to visit the Redoubt Fortress, which was built to support the Martello Towers and defend England against Napoleon. More recently, in World War II, the fortress was used to house Canadian troops before the D-Day landings. Nowadays the site houses a museum where you can trace its history and see reconstructions of how it would have looked.
Whenever you decide to visit Eastbourne, there is a multitude of places to stay. These range from small, family run hotels and guest houses – often on the seafront, for some quite spectacular sea views – through to larger hotels. If you are visiting the town for a specific event, it pays to make sure that your chosen lodging is close to where the main event is being held if there is still space available there. That said, there are always regular buses running around the town.

Article Title: Lynton And Lynmouth: Floods, Tarka The Otter And Much More!

Lynton and its neighbouring town of Lynmouth are located on the edge of Exmoor National Park. The two towns are connected not only by steep, winding roads but also by a funicular railway. This is a water powered railway that has been running daily since it opened in 1890. You can also walk up a track alongside the some of railway. As you'd expect from the description, the cars are powered by water which is fed into them from the nearby West Lynn river. The lower car is filled with up to 700 gallons of water and it then gets gently pulled up the slope by the weight of the top car.
The novel Lorna Doone was set in the area, so you should be able to recognize a number of different places in the area when you visit.
Probably one of the most famous events that Lynton and Lynmouth have been subjected to was a massive flood, which took place on the 15th of August 1952. You can see the massive boulders that were moved during the flood when you look into the mouth of the East and West Lyn rivers. There are also marks along the gorge to show how high the water level rose to – well above the footpath you're viewing them from. The flood was caused by the six and a half inches of rain that fell in the area during the first two weeks of August.
The visitor centre in Lynmouth has a permanent exhibition dedicated to the devastating flood and you can see photographs of the village before and after over one hundred thousand tons of boulders and other debris were swept through the village.
Nowadays, the two villages thrive on the tourism trade that has been generated by the tragic flood as well as people who come to the area to experience the incredible scenery.
The tourist trade means that there is a wide choice of hotels and guest houses in the two towns, so you are bound to be able to find somewhere to stay. And don't worry, lots of work has been done in the area to ensure that the flood will never be repeated, so your visit will be safe.
Both towns cater well for tourists. There are plenty of shops that you can browse around, selling everything from ice cream cones for those warm summer days through to other assorted memorabilia.
History fans will want to make sure that their visit includes the Lynton Parish Church, St Mary. This has some great views of the sea and the surrounding town and its tower dates back as far as the thirteenth century.
If you like hiking, the two towns are on both the South West Coastal Path and the Tarka Trail. The latter is a series of paths – both footpaths and cycleways – that follow the route that Tarka the Otter took in the famous book. The paths follow a figure of eight route and depending on how energetic you are feeling, you could take in some or all of their 180 miles.

Article Title: Birmingham: What To See And Do In The Centre Of The Midlands, Birmingham

*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
Located near enough in the centre of England, one of Birmingham's many claims to fame is that is it Britain's second largest city with around a million people living and working there. The city has a diverse mixture of cultures and there is a plethora of things to keep you occupied during your visit.
Birmingham's canal network works its way across the whole city. With more miles of canal than Venice, albeit without gondolas, you can drift back to the olden days by either renting a canal boat and exploring the routes that used to be essential for trade in the city or just simply watching the colourful narrowboats that are a constantly changing feature of the city.
If you want to watch canal boats as they are moored or as they maneuver through narrow canal locks, one of the best places to start is the recently redeveloped Brindley Place. Millions of pounds have been spent on this and the investment shows. In recent years, the area has become one of the essential places to visit whether you want to have a quiet drink in one of the canal-side pubs or eat a leisurely meal in the wide choice of restaurants at Brindleyplace. Because the development is so central, it is almost certain to be within easy reach of your chosen hotel. If not, it will probably only be a short taxi ride away.
Close by is Central Square. This is a large open space that regularly holds open air events and, if you time your stay in Birmingham right, the annual Arts Fest which, as its name implies, is a festival dedicated to the various arts.
Whilst continental style lager seems to have taken over as the "traditional" beer of England, Birmingham still keeps up with its long tradition of local ales and breweries. Indeed, the modern trend of micro breweries has seen this industry start to thrive again and fans of real British ale will be astounded at the different brews available.
Anyone who has read JRR Tolkein's epic novel "The Lord Of The Rings" will want to explore the parts of Birmingham that inspired the author during the formative years that he spent in the city. These include the 96 foot tall Perrott's Folly – an ancient monument that was built by local land owner John Perrott some 250 years ago. It is generally thought that this tower was the inspiration for the towers that are regular features of Tolkien's novel.
As you would expect from such a diverse city, there is also a wide variety of hotels and guest houses for you to stay in on your next visit. These range in size from small, friendly bed and breakfasts – often to be found in the quieter suburbs of the city – right the way through to the large skyscrapers that define many of the world's modern hotels. If there is a large show at the nearby National Exhibition Centre or a big conference somewhere in the city, these bigger places will fill up fast with delegates. But providing you broaden your search to some of the other places to stay, there should be no problem in finding suitable accommodation for your visit.

Article Title: What To Do When You Visit The Home Of Golf: St Andrews In Scotland

Situated close to Fife on the East coast of Scotland, St Andrews is famous for being the "home of golf".
The Royal and Ancient Golf club was founded in the town in 1754 and controls the game of golf everywhere except in America and Mexico.
There's a good chance that your visit to St Andrews will be to do with the links course, which often holds the annual Golf Open Championship, the longest established of golf's four major men's championships. Outside the time of the championship, you should be able to book a tee time and play the course yourself.
If you can't afford the fees to play on the most popular courses, don't panic. There are a total of 7 links courses in the St Andrews area, so you're sure to be able to find one that has an open slot and an affordable price.
Or you can just practice your shots at the local St Andrews Links golf driving range.
If you prefer a sport other than golf, St Andrews has plenty to offer as well:
You can keep fit at the East Sands Leisure Centre or take a swim in the pool or if you prefer to stay on dry land, they also have a number of pool tables.
Surfers will want to check out the surf on the nearby East Sands beach – the best surf is to be had in the winter months when the waves are bigger.
Kite flying is also a popular sport here. Most flyers will head towards the West Sands beach to indulge their hobby.
History fans can browse around the ruins of St Andrews cathedral. The cathedral was originally built starting in 1158. They fell into disuse at the time of the Reformation, during the mid 1500s but you can still get an idea of the scale of the building from the remains that are still standing on the original cathedral site.
These remains include St Rule's tower which is even older than the cathedral. If you have the energy and the weather is in your favour, make sure that you climb up the 156 steps of the tower so that you can admire the views of the town of St Andrews as well as its harbour, the North Sea and the Scottish countryside.
The other ruins to visit are those of St Andrews castle, which has been on the same site since the 12th century. There is a visitor centre to give you a flavour of what the castle used to be like in its prime.
St Andrews is also the site of Scotland's oldest university. The student population in the area ensures that there is plenty of life in the town if you want to venture outside your hotel.
One thing you should remember when you are visiting St Andrews is that if your visit coincides with a popular golf event, you will need to book your hotel accommodation in plenty of time to make sure that there is room for you to stay.
About The Author: When you visit St Andrews, book your http://www.smoothhound.co.uk/standrew.html St Andrews hotel from one of the many hotels and guest houses featured on http://www.smoothhound.co.uk/standrew.html

As you would expect from the fourth largest city in England, there is plenty to see and do when you visit Leeds, whether that visit is for business or pleasure.
In fact, Leeds even received the coveted Conde Nast Traveler magazine Reader's Award as the UK's favorite city as recently as 2004 and was voted the best English city to visit outside London in 2005.
So what can you do when you visit this popular city?
During November and early December, there is a Christmas Market that takes over the Millennium Square area of the city. Then in the start of the new year, the square turns into Europe's largest open air ice skating rink, so you can practice your skating skills.
Music fans will want to make sure that they time their visit to coincide with the International Pianoforte Competition, although you may need to plan in advance as this event is only held every three years.
During the summer, you can join in the various free events that are held as part of the "Party in the Park" at Temple Newsam stately home. If you're not able to time your trip for this, you can always visit this grand manor, including landscaped grounds designed by Capability Brown.
If you are lucky enough to be in Leeds for the August bank holiday period, be sure to take in the West Indian Carnival. This colourful event has been running every year since 1967 and is the oldest such carnival in the whole of Europe.
Film fanatics should aim for Leeds during November, when the International Film Festival takes place in the city. Here you can see a wide range of hard to find movies, even including an all night horror movie selection on one of the weekends of the festival. If horror isn't your idea of fun, the festival is also often host to the premieres of various Hollywood blockbusters. So there's definitely something for everyone at this event.
Earlier in the year, usually in July, Kirkstall Abbey hosts a traditional festival in its grounds.
Pop music fans can join in with the Leeds Festival, which takes place at the same time as its musical twin, the Reading Festival. The two events regularly share the same acts, so if you are located towards the North of the UK, you may well find this an easier place to reach.
With all these different events, it pays to book your Leeds accommodation in advance to make sure that your hotel room is close to your chosen event (or far away from it if your business trip takes you into Leeds at the same time as one of these festivals).
Sports fans should time their visit so that it takes place at the same time as their chosen team is playing. Whether that's Leeds United football club who play at the large Elland Road stadium, the Yorkshire County cricket team, Leeds Rhinos Rugby League team or even the lesser known women's football team.

What can you do when you visit Swindon? Although you may not bump into famous Swindonians such as Melinda Messenger, there's still plenty of interesting things to see and do in Swindon.
1. Shopping
Probably the best places to shop in Swindon are the main retail parks such as Greenbridge, the West Swindon Shopping Centre, Stratton and the Orbital Shopping Park. Or, if you're looking for cheaper brand name items then it's well worth checking out the discounts available at the McArthur Glen Designer Outlet which boasts that it is the largest such development in Europe. There's plenty of room there, even though some 3 million people a year are estimated to visit it to save money on their designer goods.
2. Steam Railway Museum
This is next to the designer outlet, so dad can have something to do while the rest of the family shop until they drop. Situated inside a listed ex-railway works, there are many exhibits that will guide you through the history of the railways and even show you how the original railway locomotives were constructed.
3. Sports and Leisure Facilities
With almost 200,000 people living there, Swindon has plenty of leisure facilities from the relatively leisurely 10 pin bowling through gymnasiums and the gigantic Lagoon swimming pool with it's slides, wave machines and water cannon. Golfers are well catered for locally as well, with the Broome Manor Golf Complex offering both 9 and 18 hole courses together with over 30 bays in the driving range so that you can practice exactly those strokes you need to. Or if you've got more time and energy on your hands, you could experience the thrill of flying through the air at one of the local gliding clubs.
4. Arts and Theatre
The Wyvern theatre shows a wide variety of films as well as the normal dramatic productions. It is also host to many one night stands as it is a well known venue for performers to include in their tours. For those who prefer a more intimate atmosphere, check out the Arts centre, which features folk music, smaller production companies and other events, such as the Swindon Music Festival.
5. Sport
Home to the Swindon Robins Speedway team, you could take in an evening watching this exciting sport at the Abbey Stadium. There are three league football teams locally, including the Football League One Swindon Town FC If you like watching ice hockey, then make sure your visit coincides with a home game for the Wildcats or the Panthers. The faster motocross circuit is located at Foxhill, just outside the town.
6. History and Celebrity
If you're a James Bond fan, then you may want to visit Sevenhampton where Ian Fleming is buried. Music fans may want to see where the Moody Blues' singer Justin Haywood was born. Those who enjoy Mark Lamarr on television can see where he grew up in Park South. Swindon is also famous for being the location of the UK's first public lending library. Not to mention being the home of the Great Western Railway and the site for one of Isambard Kingdom Brunel's railway works.

Music piracy has become headline news over the last few years and apart from being illegal, it also means that recording artists do not get the royalties they are entitled to. So why has music piracy become so common?
The answer lies in the fact that sites such as Itunes and Amazon place DRM (Digital Rights Management) on the music they sell; this effectively means that the music can only be played on one device. Gone are the days when you could take your cds round to your friend's house to listen to, or day I say, copy.
Limewire was founded in 2000 for the purpose of allowing the searching and sharing of material. The decision came after a four year court case between Limewire and the Recording Industry Association O America, the body that represents most of the world's largest record labels. In January 2011 the trial will continue to decide the amount of damages that will be awarded to the record companies in order to compensate them for the loss of revenue as a result of downloads from Limewire.
The industry has now set a precedent and more cases are bound to follow. As yet the courts (in the main) are not prosecuting individual users for downloading pirated copyrighted material. Having said that, in 2007 a woman was sued for $220,000 for downloading 1700 songs from Kaaza!
It has become very commonplace for people to download pirated music from web sites such as Limewire and Bearshare. It has become such a problem ften of a very low bit-rate. This means that the sound quality is not as good as it should be. But the biggest issue with downloading from these type of sites is that many of the files are infected with viruses. Download what you think is the latest song by Kanye West and you might end up with more than you bargained for, once you have downloaded it, it's too late. It can be a costly mistake and is best avoided!
However, there is a site, that through a clever system of licensing, allows you to purchase music for only 15 cents a song and also lets you have it without any DRM on it so you can listen to it on more than one device.
The site currently has music from over 250,000 artists and has a catalogue of over 3 million songs a figure that is growing every day. If you can't find the music you want here you're not going to find it anywhere! The site is arranged primarily in chart order, it lists the current Top 40s for the US, UK, Europe and World. In addition to this the whole site is easily searchable by artist or song title.
Free songs are given as a bonus just for registering so you haven't got anything to lose, it is effectively free to try. Multiple bonuses are awarded for topping up your credit so you'll actually get you music for less than 15 cents a song.
They also give you a free download manager to install on your pc, this makes the downloading of songs you have purchased extremely easy.
To summarise, why take the risk of downloading pirated music when you can get legal, high quality, virus-free music for only 15 cents a song. Visit the link below so see for yourself!

Article Title: Formula 1 - A History To 1980

*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
The Formula One series has its roots in the European Grand Prix motor racing of the 1920s and 1930s. However, the true history of Formula One began in 1946 with the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile's (FIA's) standardisation of rules. A World Drivers' Championship followed in 1950.
Although the world championship has always been the main focus of the category, non-championship Formula One races were held for many years. Due to the rising cost of competition, the last of these occurred in 1983.
National championships existed in South Africa and the UK in the 1960s and 1970s. After World War II, a new formula was initiated — originally called Formula A but soon to be known as Formula 1 — for cars of 1.5 litres supercharged and 4.5 litres unsupercharged. The minimum race distance was reduced from 311 miles to 186 miles, allowing the Monaco Grand Prix to be re-introduced after a two-year break in 1950.
The FIA announced plans for a World Championship at a meeting held that year. On 10 April 1950, Juan Manuel Fangio, in a Maserati, won the Pau Grand Prix, the first contest to be labeled an "International Formula One" race. A month later, Silverstone hosted the British Grand Prix, the first sanctioned championship race for Formula One Grand Prix cars, and the F1 World Championship was born.
The sport's title, Formula One, indicates that it is intended to be the most advanced and most competitive of the many racing formulae.
Formative years (1950–1980)
The first Formula One World Championship was won by Italian Giuseppe Farina in his Alfa Romeo in 1950, barely defeating his Argentine teammate Juan Manuel Fangio. However, Fangio won the title in 1951, 1954, 1955, 1956 & 1957, his streak interrupted by two-time champion Alberto Ascari of Ferrari. Although Britain's Stirling Moss was able to compete regularly, he was never able to win the World Championship, and is now widely considered to be the greatest driver never to have won the title. Fangio, however, is remembered for dominating Formula One's first decade and has long been considered the "grand master" of Formula One.
The first major technological development, Cooper's re-introduction of mid-engined cars (following Ferdinand Porsche's pioneering Auto Unions of the 1930s), which evolved from the company's successful Formula 3 designs, occurred in the 1950s. Jack Brabham, champion in 1959 and 1960, soon proved the new design's superiority. By 1961, all competitors had switched to mid-engined cars.
The first British World Champion was Mike Hawthorn, who drove a Ferrari to the title in 1958. However, when Colin Chapman entered F1 as a chassis designer and later founder of Team Lotus, British racing green came to dominate the field for the next decade. Between Jim Clark, Jackie Stewart, John Surtees, Jack Brabham, Graham Hill, and Denny Hulme, British teams and Commonwealth drivers won twelve world championships between 1962 and 1973.
In 1962, Lotus introduced a car with an aluminium sheet monocoque chassis instead of the traditional spaceframe design. This proved to be the greatest technological breakthrough since the introduction of mid-engined cars. In 1968, Lotus painted Imperial Tobacco livery on their cars, thus introducing sponsorship to the sport.
Aerodynamic downforce slowly gained importance in car design from the appearance of aerofoils in the late 1960s. In the late 1970s Lotus introduced ground effect aerodynamics that provided enormous downforce and greatly increased cornering speeds (though the concept had previously been used on Jim Hall's Chaparral 2J in 1970). So great were the aerodynamic forces pressing the cars to the track, some cars did without springs in their suspension and substituted solid blocks of aluminium to minimize the change in ride height due to the drastic change in downforce from low speed to high speed, depending entirely on the tyres for any small amount of cushioning of the car and driver from any irregularities in the road surface.
The formation of the Fédération Internationale du Sport Automobile (FISA) in 1979 set off the FISA-FOCA war, during which FISA and its president Jean Marie Balestre clashed repeatedly with the Formula One Constructors Association over television profits and technical regulations.
Rise in popularity (1981–2000)
1981 saw the signing of the first Concorde Agreement, a contract which bound the teams to compete until its expiration and assured them a share of the profits from the sale of television rights, bringing an end to the FISA-FOCA War and contributing to Bernie Ecclestone's eventual complete financial control of the sport, after much negotiation.
The FIA imposed a ban on ground effect aerodynamics in 1983. By then, however, turbocharged engines, which Renault had pioneered in 1977, were producing over 700 bhp (520 kW) and were essential to be competitive. In later years, notably 1986, the Formula One turbo cars produced in excess of 1,100 bhp (820 kW) in racing trim (and as much as 1,400 bhp / 1050 kW in qualifying trim). These cars were the most powerful open-wheel circuit racing cars ever. To reduce engine power output and thus speeds, the FIA limited fuel tank capacity in 1984 and boost pressures in 1988 before banning turbocharged engines completely in 1989.
In the early 1990s, teams started introducing electronic driver aids such as active suspension, semi-automatic gearboxes and traction control. Some were borrowed from contemporary road cars.[citation needed] Some, like active suspension, were primarily developed for the track and later made their way to the showroom. The FIA, due to complaints that technology was determining the outcome of races more than driver skill, banned many such aids for 1994. However, many observers felt that the ban on driver aids was a ban in name only as the FIA did not have the technology or the methods to eliminate these features from competition.
The teams signed a second Concorde Agreement in 1992 and a third in 1997, which is due to expire on the last day of 2007.
On the track, the McLaren and Williams teams dominated the 1980s and 1990s. Powered by Porsche, Honda, and Mercedes-Benz, McLaren won 16 championships (seven constructors', nine drivers') in that period, while Williams used engines from Ford, Honda, and Renault to also win 16 titles (nine constructors', seven drivers'). The rivalry between racing legends Ayrton Senna and Alain Prost became F1's central focus in 1988, and continued until Prost retired at the end of 1993. Tragically, Senna died at the 1994 San Marino Grand Prix after crashing into a wall on the exit of the notorious curve Tamburello, having taken over Prost's lead drive at Williams that year. The FIA worked to improve the sport's safety standards since that weekend, during which Roland Ratzenberger also lost his life in an accident during Saturday qualifying. No driver has died on the track at the wheel of a Formula One car since, though two track marshals have lost their lives, one at the 2000 Italian Grand Prix, and the other at the 2001 Australian Grand Prix.
Since the deaths of Senna & Ratzenberger, the FIA has used safety as a reason to impose rule changes which otherwise, under the Concorde Agreement, would have had to be agreed upon by all the teams - most notably the changes introduced for 1998. This so called 'narrow track' era resulted in cars with smaller rear tyres, a narrower track overall and the introduction of 'grooved' tyres to reduce mechanical grip. There would be four grooves, on the front and rear, that ran through the entire circumference of the tyre. The objective was to reduce cornering speeds and to produce racing similar to rain conditions by enforcing a smaller contact patch between tyre and track. This was to promote driver skill and provide a better spectacle.
Results have been mixed as the lack of mechanical grip has resulted in the more ingenious designers clawing back the deficit with aerodynamic grip - pushing more force onto the tyres through wings, aerodynamic devices etc - which in turn has resulted in less overtaking as these devices tend to make the wake behind the car 'dirty' preventing other cars from following closely, due to their dependence on 'clean' air to make the car stick to the track. The grooved tyres also had the unfortunate side effect of initially being of a harder compound, to be able to hold the groove tread blocks, which resulted in spectacular accidents in times of aerodynamic grip failure eg rear wing failures, as the harder compound could not grip the track as well.
The more innovative teams have found ways to maximise this dramatic change. McLaren, in a car designed by Adrian Newey, used a 'fiddle' brake on their 1998 car which allowed the driver to apply the brake to one or the other of the rear two wheels to provide them with a better 'toe' into a corner. This was eventually banned as a driver aid.
Drivers from McLaren, Williams, Renault (formerly Benetton) and Ferrari, dubbed the "Big Four", have won every World Championship from 1984 to the present day. Due to the technological advances of the 1990s, the cost of competing in Formula One rose dramatically. This increased financial burden, combined with four teams' dominance (largely funded by big car manufacturers such as Mercedes-Benz (DaimlerChrysler)), caused the poorer independent teams to struggle not only to remain competitive, but to stay in business. Financial troubles forced several teams to withdraw. Since 1990, 28 teams have pulled out of Formula One. This has prompted former Jordan owner Eddie Jordan to say that the days of competitive privateers are

The natural way of dealing with hypertension is to eliminate the poisons from the system which cause it. The patient should always follow a routine of we1l-balanced diet, exercise and rest. Diet is of primary importance. The patient should start the process of healing by living on an exclusive fruit diet for at least five days and take fresh juicy fruits at five-hour intervals thrice in the day. Oranges, apples, Pears, mangoes, pineapple, papaya and watermelon are the best diet in such cases. Milk may be added to the fruit diet after five days. The patient can be given cereals in his food after 10 days or so.
Vegetables are also good for a hypertension patient and vegetarians have strikingly lower blood pressure. Vegetables should preferably be taken raw. If they are cooked, it should be ensured that their natural juices are not burnt in the process of cooking. Vegetables like cucumber, carrot, tomato, onion, radish, cabbage and spinach are best taken in their raw form. They may be cut into small pieces with a little salt and the juice of a lemon added to them so as to make them more palatable. The intake of salt should be restricted; in any case it should not be taken more than four grams or half a teaspoon a day. Baking powder, containing sodium carbonate, should also be avoided.
Garlic is regarded as one of the most effective remedies to lower blood pressure. The pressure and tension are reduced because it has the power to ease the spasm of the small arteries. Garlic also slows the pulse and modifies the heart rhythm, besides relieving the symptoms of dizziness, numbness, shortness of breath and the formation of gas within the digestive tract. The average dosage should be two to three capsules a day to make a dent in the blood pressure. According to a researcher at George Washington University in America, both: garlic and onion contain a great deal of adenosine which is a smooth muscle relaxant.
Celery is believed to have been used as folk remedy to lower blood pressure in Asia since 200 BC Dr. William Elholt, a pharmacologist at the University of Chicago's Pritzker School of Medicine, has recently isolated a blood pressure reducing drug in this vegetable. The pressure lowering chemical is called 3-n-butyl計hthalide which gives celery its aroma. Dr. Elliot says celery may be unique because "the active blood pressure lowering compound is found in rather high concentrations in celery, and not in many other vegetables". He believes tha t the celery lowers pressure by reducing blood concentrations of stress hormones that cause blood. vessels to constrict. He suggests celery may be most effective in blood pressure linked to mental stress. The patient can take two stalks of celery daily with beneficial results.
Watermelon is another valuable safeguard against high blood pressure. It was proved in recent experiments that a substance extracted from watermelon seeds has a definite action in dilating the blood pressure. The seeds dried and roasted should be taken in liberal quantities.
Potatoes, especially if boiled, are a valuable food for lowering blood pressure. When boiled with their skin, they absorb very little salt. Thus they can form a useful addition to salt-free diet recommended for patients with high blood pressure. Potatoes are rich in potassium but not in sodium salts. The magnesium present in the vegetable exercises beneficial effects in lowering blood pressure.
The use of olive oil in diet may help lower blood pressure. A study by researchers at Stanford Medical School of 76 middleaged men with high blood pressure a few years ago concluded that the amount of monounsaturated fat in three tablespoons of olive oil a day could lower systolic pressure about nine points and diastolic pressure about six points. More remarkable, a University of Kentucky study found that a mere two-thirds of a tablespoon of olive oil daily reduced blood pressure by about five systolic points and four diastolic points in men.
The patient of hypertension should follow a plan of well balanced diet in which the constituents of food should be approximately in the following proportion: carbohydrate 20 per cent, protein 10 to 15 per cent, fat five per cent and fruits and vegetables 60 to 65 per cent. In this plan, one main meal should be based on raw foods, while the second main meal may consist of cooked foods. Meal should be taken slowly and in a relaxed atmosphere. Food should be well masticated as the process of digestion begins in the mouth. The dinner should not normally be taken late.
Exercise plays an important role in the treatment of hypertension. Walking is an excellent form of exercise. It helps to relieve tension, builds up the muscles and aids in the circulation of blood. As the blood pressure shows signs of abating, more exercise like bicycling, swimming and jogging should be taken.

Cataract is one of the most stubborn conditions to deal with. If it has become deep-seated, nothing short of a surgical operation will help. However, in the early stages, there are good chances of getting over the ailment by natural means. Even advanced cases can be prevented from becoming worse.
A thorough course of cleansing the system of the toxic matter is essential. To start with, it will be beneficial to undergo a fast for three to four days on orange juice and water. A warm water enema should be taken daily during this period. After this initial fast, a very restricted diet should be followed for two weeks. In this regimen, breakfast may consist of oranges or grapes or any other juicy fruit in season. Salads of raw vegetables in season, with olive oil and lemon juice dressing, and soaked raisins, figs or dates may be taken during lunch. Evening meals may consist of steamed vegetables such as spinach, fenugreek, drum sticks, cabbage, cauliflower, carrot, turnips (steamed in their own juices) and a few nuts or some fruits, such as apples, pears and grapes. Avoid potatoes and no bread or any other article of food should be added to this list.
After two weeks on this diet, the cataract patient may embark upon a fuller well-balanced diet - seeds, nuts and whole grain cereals, vegetables and fruits.
The short fast followed by a restricted diet should be repeated after three months of the commencement of the treatment and again three months later, if necessary. The bowels should be cleansed daily with the warm water enema during the fast, and afterwards as necessary.
The patient should avoid white bread, sugar, cream, refined cereals, rice, boiled potatoes, puddings and pies, strong tea, coffee, alcoholic beverages, condiments, pickles, sauces, and other so-called aids to digestion.
There is increasing evidence to show that in several cases, cataracts have actually been reversed by proper nutritional treatment. However, the time needed for such treatment may extend from six months to three years.
The aniseed is considered an excellent remedy of cataract. The patient should take about six grams of aniseed daily in morning and evening. Equal quantities of aniseed and corriander powder, mixed with brown sugar is also beneficial. The mixture should be taken in doses of 12 grams in morning and evening. Another valuable remedy for cataract is to grind seven kernels of almonds and half a gram of pepper together in water and drink it after sifting and sweetening the mixture with sugar candy. It helps the eyes to regain their vigour.
The use of carrots has been found valuable in cataract. The patient should eat plenty of raw carrots daily. Alternatively, he should take two glasses of carrot juice daily, one glass each morning and evening. Unprocessed honey has been found useful in treating cataract. A few drops of this honey should be put in the eyes. This is an ancient Egyptian remedy which has benefited many patients. The use of castor oil has also been found beneficial. Two drops of this oil should be instilled in the eyes before retiring to bed.
The use of spinach is an effective home remedy to check cataract, according to a study in the British Medical Journal. A probable reason is spinach's rich stores of antioxidants, including beta carotene. Indeed, the investigators found that those who ate the most beta carotene in fruits and vegetables were only 40 per cent as likely to develop cataracts.

The modem medical treatment for glaucoma is through surgery which relieves the internal pressure in the eye due to excess fluid. This, however, does not remove the cause of the presence of the excess fluid. Consequently, even after the operation, there is no guarantee whatsoever that the trouble will not recur, or that it will not affect the other eye. The natural treatment for glaucoma is the same as that for any other condition associated with high toxicity and is directed towards preserving whatever sight remains. If treated in the early stages, the results are encouraging. Though cases of advanced glaucoma may be uncurable, certain nutritional and other biological approaches can prove effective in controlling the condition and preserving the remaining sight.
Certain foodstuffs should be scrupulously avoided by patients suffering from glaucoma. Coffee in particular should be completely avoided because of its high caffeine content. Caffeine causes stimulation -of vasoconstrictors, elevating blood pressure and increasing blood to the eye. Beer and tobacco, which can cause constriction of blood vessels, should also be avoided. Tea should be taken only in moderation. The patient should not take excessive fluids, whether it is juice, milk or water at any time. He may drink small amounts several times with at least one-hour intervals.
The diet of the patient suffering from glaucoma should consist of seeds, nuts and grains, vegetables and fruit, with emphasis on raw Vitamin C-rich foods, fresh fruits and vegetables.
Certain nutrients have been found helpful in the treatment of glaucoma. It has been found that the glaucoma patients are usually deficient in Vitamin A, B, C, protein, calcium and other minerals. Nutrients such as calcium and B complex help relieve the intraocular condition. Many practioners believe that intraocular pressure in glaucoma can be lowered by the Vitamin C therapy. Dr. Michele Virno and his colleagues reported recently at a meeting of the Roman Ophthalmological Society in Rome, Italy, that the average person weighing 150 pounds who is given 7000 mg. of ascorbic acid five times daily, acquired acceptable intraocular pressure within 45 days. Symptoms such as mild stomach discomfort and diarrhoea from large doses of Vitamin C were temporary and soon disappeared. It has also been suggested that some calcium should always be taken with each dose of ascorbic acid to minimise side effects of the large dose.
The patient should avoid emotional stress and cultivate a tranquil, restful lifestyle. He should also avoid prolonged straining of the eye such as occurs during excessive TV or movie watching and excessive reading. The use of sunglasses should be avoided.

Consumer Reports Best Baby Products gives information about the best baby cribs based on their tests and product reviews. A baby crib is one of the most important items that new parents purchase for their child. The baby spends most of its time in the crib, particularly as a newborn.
Consumer reports on baby cribs advises that the safest cribs are those which use the least loose fitting bedding such as blankets and pillows. These items cause the most risk to babies due to the possibility of suffocation and SIDS hazard.
According to consumer reports, the best cribs are those that are most simple. The first decision is whether to get a crib with a drop side. The drop side allows for easy access to the baby but if installed incorrectly can pose a threat to the infant. Some cribs have two drop sides. To check the structure of the crib Consumer Reports suggests that you check the in-store model of the crib before making any decisions. The crib sides should lock into place and should not move down without excessive pressure applied. You should not be able to move the sides without at least ten pounds or more of pressure.
The best cribs, according to consumer reports on baby cribs, are those that have the simplest lines. When purchasing a new crib be sure that it made well and that all the slats are held tightly in place. Avoid cribs that have cutouts on the head or foot ends as these can catch tiny fingers and hands. Slats should be no further than 2 3/8 inches apart. All cribs manufactured after 1974 must adhere to these standards.
The crib mattress is important also. The mattress must fit tightly into the crib. You should not be able to put two fingers width between the mattress and the side of the crib. If you can, the mattress is too small and can pose a hazard. The mattress should not be covered in protective plastic as this can cause a possible suffocation problem. Bedding should be kept tight on the bed. Do not use a loose pillow with an infant. Pillows should be decorative only and must be removed when the child is in the crib.
Through the years new criteria continue to be added to the crib safety standards. If you are planning on using a crib that was made before 1986 be sure to check it for all possible problems. Review the site to find out if the crib was recalled for safety. Measure the slats and check all hardware for possible choking hazards. Be sure that the mattress you get will fit into the crib snugly. When in doubt it is best to purchase a new crib.
A new single-drop side crib is typically priced below $300, making it an affordable purchase. Check safety and convenience features. Cribs are now available that convert into toddler beds, daybeds and even full size beds to grow with the child. Check these as you would any crib to ensure that it is safe.
As children grow you need to ensure that they cannot climb or fall out of the crib. Most cribs have adjustable mattress positions which allow you to lower the bed as a child grows. When the child stands the top of the crib side should not be lower than his chest, with the side in the highest position. Once the child reaches this size you need to move the child from the crib to a toddler bed.

Article Title: Baby Crib Review - What To Look For When Choosing A Baby Crib

*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
You're going to be a new parent and are starting to make purchases for your little one. The first major purchase you will make is a baby crib. An infant spends more than 1600 hours sleeping during the fist year alone. Most of that time will be spent in the new crib. When choosing a crib look at baby crib reviews to determine the best crib for your situation.
Quality
Baby cribs are available in almost any price point from about $100 and up. The lower priced cribs typically are not made as well as those with higher price tags. They may not be as sturdy either. However, it isn't necessary to purchase the highest price crib either. Think about your budget when considering the purchase.
Start by looking at cribs that fall within a certain range of prices. Higher quality cribs are made of solid woods or high-grade materials that are meant to last a long time. The upper end cribs are typically heirloom quality. If you plan to have several children who will use the crib you may want to opt for at least a middle-grade crib to ensure that it will stay sturdy for some years.
Features
Features are an important factor when looking at baby crib reviews. To start with consider whether you need to have one or both sides of the crib drop down for easy access. If the crib is to be placed next to a wall there is the need for only one drop side, whereas if the crib is placed in the middle of the room the crib may be able to be accessed from either side.
Mattress height can be adjusted on almost any baby crib. Make sure that the crib has several positions and that they are made to lock in place securely. The drop sides should have similar adjustments available as well. Be sure that you can make the proper adjustments and that the sides do not easily push down. The mattress must fit snugly into the crib.
Some cribs come with rolling castors attached. These provide the ability to easily move the crib as needed. Check to make sure that they can lock in place so that the crib cannot be moved easily. A teething rail is sometimes provided and is attached to the top of the rails.
Convertible baby cribs
are a popular choice. These are cribs that can easily convert to a toddler bed, daybed or full size bed as the child grows. This makes the transition easy as the child gets bigger as well as saves you money. Most convertible cribs require the purchase of an additional optional hardware kit to make the transition possible. Toddler beds and daybeds often use the same crib mattress. When converting to a full-size bed the sides or ends are transitioned to the headboard and footboard and a new bed frame and mattress are required.
Safety
Many safety guidelines are in place for baby cribs. The safety standards have been in effect since 1973 with occasional updates. New cribs all conform to these standards and should contain a sticker which tells you that it does indeed conform to safety standards.
Many baby products have been recalled through the years due to safety concerns. Always check with the store or manufacturer to ensure that the crib you choose has not been part of a recall. If a crib is recalled there is often a retrofit kit available to make the crib safe again.

Article Title: The Legend of Bigfoot – the Sasquatch

*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
Wandering through the wilderness of the Northern Pacific in the United States or western Canada many claim to have seen a large hair covered wild man in the woods. Descriptions of this beast range from 7 to 8 feet tall and in some cases there are reports up to 10 or 12 feet. Long shaggy hair covers their body and those who have encountered these animals they smell them long before they see them. Imagine the smell of old Uncle Rufus after a bender times ten.
In the United States this creature is more commonly referred to as Bigfoot, while the neighbors to the north prefer to call them Sasquatch. Why Bigfoot? Well imagine the size those sleds would need to be to support someone 8 feet tall. Personally I think choosing the feet, when coming up with a name, was much wiser than any of the other body parts.
Those highly regarded in the scientific field in most cases laugh off Bigfoot as either a mythological creature or an interesting legend without a second thought on the subject. They will refer to videos, footprints and stories that are hundreds of years old as hoaxes carried out by bored mountain men and women. After all how else can they entertain themselves with no television up in 'dem hills? Hair samples are examined and either quickly identified or labeled as from an unknown species, either having little meaning. Oh, those bellowing sounds in the night? Surely someone out in the woods who happened to drop one of the fire logs on their foot. Hey you would bellow too.
Reputable people have brae ridicule to report sightings every year going back to when the Europeans first arrived here exploring the New World. The Native Americans feared giant, hairy, man-like creature running about in the woods nude. How can we blame them? You and I would be frightened by a big, hairy, naked creature running through our back yard.
The serious part of the debate centers on the body. Why hasn't anyone ever found the body or a fossil record? Shouldn't there have been some Bigfoot road kill by now? It's not like you wouldn't notice hitting an 8 foot tall beast in the middle of the road. Advocates cite rarely finding the remains of other large animals out in the woods they get broken down pretty quickly out in the forest. Who knows, maybe Bigfoot buries their brothers and sisters just like humans do today.
Bigfoot advocates also suggest that we already have fossil records of the big guy. Most will point to the records of Gigantopithecus and say this creature found its way over to North America from the Asian continent just like other animals throughout history did. Science just does not want to go frontier living out in the boonies in order to conduct the studies needed to actually find one of these creatures in the shrinking, hard to access habitat they live in.
In you are one of the Bigfoot advocates all you need to do is book your next trip to the great outdoors and find the proof needed to convince the skeptics.
