Google without advertisments or adwords
http://www.google.com/ie

the bad part with the adfree search is that you do not have a advanced search option

however you can put manually the options in the url like this
http://www.google.com/ie?num=100

the url above for example shows 100 finds per page and to not have to write all the options every time you can make it your homepage like i do

Google in english indiferent of the country you are in
