Sharp Lcd Tv Keeps Turning Itself On

10 Scottish pubs not to be missed ...

Whether you're looking good beer, good atmosphere or a even a great location , Scotland has an infinite number of pubs so fabulous, it becomes rather difficult to pick just 10 ... but according to "Scotland Magazine" these are the best ...

1. The Inn Clachaig


Nestled in the heart of the beautiful and picturesque valley of Glencoe ... considered one of the most spectacular areas of Scotland , this pub is almost as famous as the hills that surround it. A paradise for travelers, hikers and locals alike for over 300 years.


Location fabulous

It features 3 bars, friendly and informal. Stone floors, open fireplaces traditional live music, great food ... There is also the Clout dumpling, (a Scottish sweet with raisins and sultanas) , and of course the excellent beer and whiskey.

Address: Clachaig Inn, Glencoe, Argyll PA39 4HX

2. The Drovers Inn



A original coaching inn, founded in 1705 , used years ago by Highland drovers when accompanying their cattle along the banks of Loch Lomond to the markets in the south of Scotland.

The coaching Inn born in Europe in the seventeenth century and were used for a period of 200 years. Structures were important for travelers. Served to provide accommodation and meals and refreshments to the men to their horses.

As you enter, you'll find the reception face to face with a grizzly bear naturally embalmed ... and this is just the beginning ...
The decor and furnishings of this pub seems to remain unaltered for at least 200 years!

... a glimpse of the interior

Cozy and definitely very historic ... with a menu where absolutely no shortage of traditional Scottish dishes ... as the ' haggis, neeps & tatties (Scottish national dish made of minced sheep innards ee spicy, served with mashed turnips and potatoes) . And a good selection of beer, wine and whiskey of course!

Address: The Drovers Inn, Inverarnan By Ardlui, North Loch Lomond, G83 7DX

3 . The Old Forge

... for a memorable experience!

appears in the Guinness Book of Records as the most remote pub in Britain (excluding islands). But despite its remote location, is a surprisingly lively and busy!

There are no roads leading to the Knoydart peninsula. You can choose to walk for about 18 miles through the mountains or take a ferry or boat from Mallaig (8 miles) ... whatever the route chosen ... When you arrive at The Old Forge, you will understand immediately that it was worth it.


... the beauty of the land and sea, peace, serenity ... unforgettable!

The fish dishes are excellent, try the delicious seafood, scallops (scallops) , freshly caught ... to be enjoyed with good wine and beer.


... or shellfish and other seafood specialties, along with organic vegetable side dishes ... but of course, meat ...

... make friends with local people, perhaps by participating in a ceilidh (Scottish folk dances, energizing, fun and socializing), often organized in weekend, but also improvised on a night any . Fun!

The hospitality here is unique!

Address: The Old Forge, Invert , Knoydart

Groping In A Japanese Subway

Beatrix Potter ... A remarkable woman!



A woman in a man's world!

Finally I got a book that I waited a long time ... I have not to ncora bed, but I could not resist writing a post about this writer, however, that I like very much.
is not Scottish but the long periods spent in the beautiful Perthshire countryside undoubtedly influenced in part its nice animal tales ...
many of you ... will know ...

Beatrix Potter (1866-1941), English writer and illustrator

I admire those who fight for their rights ... against all, if necessary. Miss Potter was one of those. Born in London in the second half of the 800 in a middle class family very conservative, was not allowed to continue their studies, because in those years, for women, it was important to know the label, how to run the house ...

But Miss Potter was not totally agree ... she wanted to write great ... and thanks to its great determination he succeeded!

Beatrix, 15, with his dog Spot

was raised by a Scottish housekeeper, who filled his head with stories of fairies, goblins and witches , and because she was not allowed to attend her friends, spent most of his time with his pets, painting and inventing stories about them.


He enjoyed so much freedom only during the long summer holidays spent in Scotland with his family until the age of 16 years. In these months of freedom and carefree learned to know and depict animals and nature, and certainly drew inspiration from these places for some of his stories, in which small players his clothes, they combine all the colors.

Peter Rabbit first edition 1902a.jpg

The Flopsy Bunnies - Copyright©Frederick Warne & Co., 1909, 2002

His most famous character is Peter Rabbit , "Peter Rabbit", one of his closest playmates. This story comes in the form of private letter, written by her in 1893 while on holiday in Scotland, and sent to the sick son of his housekeeper.


This spurred the same housekeeper for its publication as a book, which she did, several years later, also underwritten the costs of the first edition of 250 copies, as his book did not interest any publisher. Then through some accidental circumstances managed to find a publisher willing to publish it and from there began his career as a writer. It was 1902. After the first story, followed by others 22.
The fish, practically in the frog's lap, is jumping back into the water.
Most of his characters are inspired by her pets ... rabbits, hedgehogs, mice, lizards, frogs, bats etc.. Others are inspired by "people" known to her ... like that of Mrs. Tiggywinkle, inspired by a washerwoman of Dalguise House, the estate where he lived when he visited Scotland.

Miss Tiggywinkle

He fell in love, reciprocated, its publisher ... but her parents opposed fortemente a questa sua relazione con un uomo che "lavorasse"... loro erano ereditieri... e allora Beatrix accolse un loro ultimatum, nel quale accettò di allontanarsi da lui per un periodo di prova, e una volta rientrata a Londra, se fosse stata ancora innamorata, poteva a quel punto sposarsi con tutta la loro benedizione. La sfortuna volle che lui si ammalò durante questa sua assenza e purtroppo morì...

Dopo aver superato questo periodo difficile, e grazie ai soldi guadagnati con la vendita dei suoi libri, lasciò gli agi della sfarzosa dimora di famiglia a Londra e si stabilì in un delizioso cottage, "Hill Top" nel Lake District. Qui, per i next 30 years, in addition to writing, he fought for the preservation of nature, buy countless land (less than 14 farms and 4000 acres of land) that have risked falling into the hands of unscrupulous manufacturers ... then that land bequeathed to the National Trust, an organization that is dedicated to the supervision of cultural and environmental heritage of Britain.

addition to managing its properties, it became a 'clever Herdwick sheep, award-winning exhibitions and the first woman to be appointed president of the Herdwick Sheep Breeders . He also performed as competition judge at various events farm, and became an expert in mycology (Study of fungi), his passion since his youth, and discover important innovations with regard to lichens.

So in an era when women's role was to carry out tasks inside the house, especially women, Beatrix Potter has broken all the rules, failing to break into a masculine world, and earning more widely respect and admiration of men!


His stories are aimed at young readers, but also very much like the great ... simple story that inspired you to think.

Peter Rabbit has been translated into 35 languages, with more than 150 million copies sold!


... and if you do not know already, I highly recommend see the movie inspired her ... simply charming! ... c on Renée Zellweger (actress in the role of Beatrix Potter), Ewan McGregor ( Scotland, in the publisher) , Patricia Kerrigan (Scottish governess) and Emily Watson (English, her friend). Set in England and Scotland. The story is partly fictional, but it's definitely worth it ...

Lethal Dose Of Temazepam

L'idiozia del berlusconiano.

Sometimes I happen to watch a video program or a program that deals with politics or events where you and forming a political clash. When, in these programs, I feel the representative of the pdl some shit rave nonsense in defense of an indefensible this concept does not make me nervous because I expected. What makes me feel rather nervous and the audience applaud. So I inaugurate with this post, comments on the video where similar things happen. Whenever possible I'll give you my comment. I wish that one day, someone who represents me to be present in those transmissions to say these things to the people cheering. Sin that for the moment no one represents me.

The video now is this: http://tv.repubblica.it/spettacoli-e-cultura/papi-girls-furia-sgarbi-contro-emma-e-giletti/62530?video Listen to the first 3 minutes then go back and read.

Now, what escapes Sgarbi and people shouting "Freedom! Freedom!" in the audience are three simple concepts that I am going to explain below.
1. Beauty is not a problem. If a woman or anyone else wants to do successful exploitation of its natural endowments, that is fine for her / him. No one can criticize a woman who uses her beauty to modeling, just as no one can criticize a man who uses his height to make the basketball player basketball.
But if a woman does not use only the beauty but also its ability to obtain sexual favors and money then it is a professional prostitute and child prostitution and exploitation of prostitution, in Italy, are crimes. Therefore, we clarify the difference: on the one hand there is a beautiful woman who uses her charm to work, the other a woman who does the work for blowjobs. Do not equate things that have nothing to do shit with each other.
2. The samples were brought De Filippi, Loren and Fenech. What are two actresses and a TV presenter. Then three people working in the entertainment world, a world where beauty counts and can be a determining factor. No one can criticize a TV producer who decides to take a girl to do a minor part in a TV series using as a yardstick the beauty of the girl herself.
But if a politician is making a political career for women because "fine" then pisses me off. Because when she is elected, is no longer paid by the policy that has launched, but is paid by me and by you through our taxes. So perhaps Sgarbi appreciates that a politician is incompetent but good-looking, but I did not. I prefer someone who can do the job for which she was elected.
3. The problem great as usual vocabulary: you should not use the word "freedom" if you do not know the meaning. A woman "free" may choose to pursue a career in television with his ability and his talent or whether it thanks to the skill in making blowjobs ass.
But here there is no choice. Just as beautiful, Berlusconi, Sgarbi and people as they expect that these women do only through road to their beauty and their sexual skills. A woman to her career thanks to a "good idea" has to work hard and get slaughtered twice and still much less likely to succeed than a woman who instead decided to sell her body. So there is no choice, there is "freedom." There is only sex in exchange for work.

Now, my dear voters bleating "freedom!" Sgarbi think that these things do not know? Of course I know them. And while he says what he says, knows that you are taking the piss. It is you who do not want to understand these things because you refuse to believe that these people do not want one and only your vote to maintain power. For a good time, before you open your mouth and do megaphones, think about a second.

the next.
