Portuguese Water Dog In 413 CE, the Visigoths invaded Iberia before being settled in Aquitania north of the Pyrenees in 418, ultimately extending their rule to most of Iberia after 470 CE. A Portuguese Water Dog is first described in 1297 in a monk’s account of a drowning sailor who was pulled from the sea by a dog with a "black coat, the hair long and rough, cut to the first rib and with a tail tuft". These theories explain how the Poodle and the Portuguese Water Dog may have developed from the same ancient genetic pool. At one time the Poodle was
Orange Poodle Orange Poodle Orange Poodle was an experimental over-the-horizon radar developed beginning in 1949 and tested experimentally in 1952 and 53. It used ground waves to follow the curvature of the Earth and allow aircraft to be detected over the sea at very low levels. It was designed to detect a target flying at an altitude of at a range of , well below the radar horizon. Testing was highly successful, but it was abruptly cancelled in 1953 when it was pointed out it could be easily jammed by a low-cost shortwave transmitter even from long range. In 1948, Claude Shannon
