Dinosaur tracks found on the Arabian Peninsula
2008-05-24 08:50:00 For the first time dinosaur tracks have been found in our region. The tracks, which were left by a group of 11 plant eaters which traveled on all fours (sauropods) as well as a single dinosaur which travelled on two legs (an ornithipod) were found on mud flats around 50 km north of Sanaa in the Republic of Yemen.The Saurpods would have been 10-13 feet tall, making them about the same height as a bus - and probably longer than one too.The findings were revealed by researchers in a paper published on scientific site Plos One. The researchers believed that it was likely that further dinosaur tracks would be discovered in the area. However, there have yet to be any findings in Qatar!Qatar Visitor FriendsQatar JobsFind the best deal, compare prices and read what other travellers have to say about QatarTagsdinosaurs

"Koh Lanta" "Survivor-France" Shooting in Caramoan Peninsula, Camarines Sur
2008-04-24 14:13:00 In his perpetual search of unspoiled beaches, "off the beaten track" destinations and pristine spots in the Philippines, Tutubi has been secretly planning to a much raved about place by backpackers and landscape photographers with their images of picture-perpect Caramoan Peninsula in the Bicol province of Camarines Sur. His plan was halted and probably re-scheduled for next year due to a news item by the Philippine Daily Inquirer about the ongoing location shoot of Survivor-France held in a highly secretive deal that involved declaring the famous Gota Beach as closed due to massive development and construction. Even Camarines Sur's official website had the same declaration that the place is currently closed.Of cordoning off of tourist spots, there has been buzz lately generated by fellow travelers about the closure of Kayangan Lake in Coron, Calamian Islands, Palawan to give way to the shoot of GMA Kapuso's Dyesebel (the nth incarnation of the classic komiks mermaid character by ...

The Peninsula On-line: Qatar's leading English Daily
2008-02-13 04:50:00 The Peninsula On-line: Qatar's leading English Daily: "Because about 80% of all lighting in the home today is still using incandescent light bulbs, the collective energy waste is very significant. With a change to energy-saving alternatives, realistic running cost savings for European consumers of EUR 5-8bn per year and an indirect CO2 reduction of 20m tons could be achieved.The case against Compact Fluorescent Lamps (CFLs) is built largely on half-truths and innuendo. Yes, the energy-saving bulbs contain mercury, a neurotoxin responsible for a tremendous amount of human suffering over the years. And safely recycling CFLs remains far more difficult than it should be. But these facts don't justify sticking with inefficient incandescent technology that has barely changed since the invention of the tungsten filament nearly a century ago."Link
Peninsula Swap
2008-02-07 17:53:00 published in Domino, February 2008This Kitchen designed by Linda Woodrum, for a home in the Florida Keys caught my eye. This is what I call a creative swap. I love this! The sink and dishwasher were placed in the peninsula. In the short part of the "U" where the sink typically resides, an under cabinet convection/microwave oven makes good use of the space. Inventive and practical for a narrow kitchen.What law says the sink has to be in front of the window? Designer Linda Woodrum has resolved a peninsula conundrum by giving the dishwasher a proper home next to the sink. The problem for older kitchens with the sink typically in front of the window, the narrow "U" prevents the dishwasher from being placed next to the sink. The dishwasher would end up perpendicular to the sink and logistically behind the sink. The narrower the space, the more awkward it becomes. Nothing is more awkward than having to back up from the sink and turn about. Or if you are not inclined to move your feet, i...

Whale Watching from Point Vicente in Palos Verdes Peninsula, California
2008-01-16 18:52:00 SeeTheGlobe.com Travel Article :: Every year, between the months of December and May, volunteers from the Los Angeles branch of The American Cetacean Society gather daily at the Point Vicente Interpretive Center on the Palos Verdes Peninsula to participate in a census of whales passing through the Catalina Channel. Since this is one of our favorite walking trails in all of LA we often stop by, say hello to the participants, ask them questions and analyze the data that is presented. Not that we know how many whales appeared or should have appeared be but it is always interesting to note that just a few miles off the coast of one of world's largest metropolis areas, whales swim by, almost unnoticed, on their yearly migration.

Christmas at The Manila Peninsula
2007-12-04 01:58:00 No wonder I was so riled when the Trillanes gang barged into The Manila Peninsula and messed up the place last Thursday. Dug up some Christmas photos of the Boo and I whiling away the Christmas holiday at The Pen a couple of years ago after discovering all hotel rooms in Boracay were fully booked as early as September.I'm pleased to read news of the place having been restored like nothing happened. I guess a lot of people hold this hotel dear to their hearts that's why many got pissed with Senator Trillanes and his barbarian hordes for thrashing the place. (Read another ad guy, Lilit Reyes, waxing nostalgic over The Pen) Never again was the cry during People Power I, referring to Martial Law not ever having to darken the motherland again. Now, it's the same cry albeit for shallower reasons. Never again shall a bunch of thugs mess up our dear hotel.

Fine dining in the Old Mission Peninsula
2007-11-08 01:27:00 We just went in to grab a quick bite, but came out very impressed and satisfied.The Peninsula Grill can be found on M-37 northbound from downtown TC towards the Chateau Chantal or the Old Mission Lighthouse. There are several other eateries and a little market place adjacent to the restaurant, making it easily visible from the main road.The environment is casual and full of well-heeled locals. Their satiated faces was an indication of what we could expect. Our server was extremely gracious and recommended we try a Michigan brew called Bell's Winter White ale. Amber colored and slightly sweet, the delicious ale got us going. My entree was fresh mussels seeping in garlic and wine, fresh herbs and other such spicy juices. It was splendid! Freshly baked bread came with a butter which had a hint of maple, but I wasn't sure and didn't care as it was so tasty! My husband opted for a hearty fried whitefish sandwich which was devoured in seconds.The bill came to $35. Definitely wor...
