The busiest road in the USA is the San Diego Freeway...has a peak hour volume of 25500 vehicles!


But the busiest motorway in the world is the M25 in England...with 270,000 vehicles a day driving on it!

Dulse is a red seaweed that grows attached to rocks by a "holdfast" in the North Atlantic and Northwest Pacific. It is commonly used in Ireland and Atlantic Canada both as food and medicinally and is now shipped around the globe. Dulse is found in many health food stores or fish markets.

Of all breeds, bloodhounds are the champion trackers. Although they are hunting dogs, their name has nothing to do with killing. It's from "blooded hound," which means purebred. Bloodhounds are actually very gentle dogs. They would rather lick than bite the people they find. Boxman
