Advantages: Full of entertaining shows... Disadvantages: ...full of repeats
Of course, it's the wonderful 'Dave'...the artist formerly known as UKTV G2. Not exactly the most exciting of sounding television channels, so they glamourised it...by called it 'Dave'...because everyone knows a Dave.
The concept of the channel is simply a station airing predominantly repeats of entertainment and comedy shows. It doesn't air 24-hours a day, instead it tends to broadcast until approximately 3am each night, and then restarts at 7am, with a bit of mind-boggling Teleshopping thrown in there for good measure.
But what does it show? Well during the day it plays repeats of entertainment shows such as Top Gear, Ray Mear's Extreme Survival, Trawlermen, Traffic Cops and Fifth Gear; all seemingly quite 'manly' shows aimed at blokes called 'Dave' presumably...

Advantages: good rails long lasting Disadvantages: none
the ever popular Thomas as well as standard trains.
Lego is a Danish company in the1969 first duplo bricks appeared then in 1993 the first train tracks. Duplo bricks are twice the length height and width of ordinary Lego.

Advantages: very watchable Disadvantages: none i can think of
i got this for my son yesterday and was very impressed..
he didn't move for a hour solid!!
with its all new special effects its hard not to sit and watch it yourself.. unlike the older Thomas dvds all the trains actually talk now and its all animated, i think kids will enjoy this much more.
the storeys quite simple, Thomas has a race with Spencer but when his breaks fail he ends up down an old track what hasn't been used in a very long time, only to find an abandoned engine named hiro... the engines try desperately to fix hiro up without naughty spencer foiling their plans and getting him sent to the smelters yard..
its approx an hour long with a few bonus tracks including a karaoke music video and a quiz.
all in all kids will love this like my son did am sure al get to watch it many many more times lol x ...

Manufacturer's product description
The definitive, Jolt-award winning guide to learning and using Rails is now in its Second Edition. Rails is a new approach to web-based application development that enables developers to create full-featured, sophisticated web-based applications using less code and less effort. Now programmers can get the job done right and still leave work on time. The book has been updated to take advantage of all the new Rails 1.2 features. The sample application uses migrations, Ajax, features a REST interface, and illustrates new Rails features. There are new chapters on migrations, active support, active record, and action controller (including the new resources-based routing). The Web 2.0 and Deployment chapters have been completely rewritten to reflect the latest thinking. Now, you can learn which environments are best for your style application, and see how Capistrano makes managing your site simple. All the remaining chapters have been extensively updated. Finally, hundreds of comments from readers of the first edition have been incorporated, making this book simply the best available.Rails is a full-stack, open-source web framework that enables you to create full-featured, sophisticated web-based applications with a twist...you can create a full Rails application using less code than the setup XML you'd need just to configure some other frameworks. With this book, you'll learn how to use Rails Active Record to connect business objects and database tables. No more painful object-relational mapping. Just create your business objects and let Rails do the rest. You'll learn how to use the Action Pack framework to route incoming requests and render pages using easy-to-write templates and components. See how to exploit the Rails service frameworks to send emails, talk to web services, and interact dynamically with Javascript applications running in the browser (the "Ajax" architecture). You'll see how easy it is to deploy Rails. You'll be writing applications that work with your favorite database (MySQL, Oracle, Postgres, and more) in no time at all. See all Product Description
