The O.G. Atlanta Brave

Advantages: Some decent tracks
Disadvantages: Notihng special

...?The Diary Of An ATL Brave? came as a mixtape from the Atlanta-based rapper Donnis in summer 2009. You get the artist backed by Mick Boogie and DJ Benzi, who host, as he comes through with some material that is designed to move away from the general sounds of the Dirty South and the Hip Hop that is based in Gangsta Rap as he does things in the Hipster Rap format (and so can be likened to the fellow Georgian Bobby Ray (formerly known as B.o.B.). 1. ?Beginnings? (Intro) 2. ?Underdog? As he gets down to things here with the first proper cut on the mixtape, here you find that he comes in with a heavy joint that gets him ridging some funky beats (the kind of things that seem to have been neglected from the Southern Rap scene for some time) as he shows how he can bring Hip hop back with this kind of thing and does well to show this through...

Review of The Diary Of An Atlanta Brave - Donnis

Atlanta: Metroplitan city of the South

Advantages: Great weather, lots of trees, culture diversity, nice houses and affordable
Disadvantages: Over speeding on highways, can get pretty dry atimes

...For some of you looking to settle down in a city that is metropolitan and yet affordable, then this is one option you shouldn't overlook. Normally, we think of cities like New York, Los Angeles, Chicago and the rest as real metro cities and true they are. But Atlanta, not having perhaps half of the skyscrapers these other cities have is a big contender for the person that wants to have a bit of both urban and sub-urban worlds in one city. My first surprise was when we were approaching touch down. there being so much haze in the air I could not see the city skyline from a distance, but what was the real surprise was the amount of forest scattered across the city. Yes forest, not just trees. Atlanta is a heavily wooded city. It's a bit hard to describe cos I've not encountered a city with so much greenery. The airport is said to be...

Atlanta - Processing passengers after 9/11

Advantages: Great hub if travelling by Delta.
Disadvantages: A little chaotic.

...keep America safe! 6. Despite the fact that you were given this paperwork on the plane some 6 hours before, a significant number of your fellow travellers will only remember to do this when they get to the immigration desk!!! Stay calm at all times - your primal instinct will be to go berserk and bash people around you to death with your bag of duty free goods. 7. Also, there are no cheerful immigration officers. Do not try and crack a joke or even a smile at these guys. They look at you like you ticked a yes for all the questions on the green form... 8. Finally, you are through to the next round of this bizarre game. Time to collect your baggage. It is probably appropriate to explain that Atlanta airport is built in a very modular way. The entrance to the airport from outside is via terminal T and you arrive in terminal E...

Review of Atlanta, USA (ATL)

Atlanta-The untouched city

Advantages: unspoilt
Disadvantages: Heat

...When you think of America, the obvious places to go are Boston, Florida and New York, however there is now a city that can challenge these and that is Atlanta, Unspoilt by tourism as yet they provide all the essentials, shopping Malls, Outlet centres and excellent restaurants. The best value for money is places like the Jimmy Carter Presidential Centre it is a must for all people old and young and at $5 excellent value for money, here you can trace Carter's rise from peanut farmer to President through pictures articles and video, there is also a replica of the Oval Office. You will also see gifts from other coutries leaders and after you have finished, you can take a stroll around the Japenese Gardens or have a drink in the restaurant. Other musts are a tour of CNN studios at $6 and the World of Coca Cola at $12 here you get to sample...

Review of Atlanta

Sink your teeth into this peach!

Advantages: great fun, historical and vibrant city
Disadvantages: if you can't handle humid weather it might not be the best place for you

...on a plot of land directly opposite the Aquarium and I have been told it is now open and even better then the original building but I can't tell you too much about that one I'm afraid. Hopefully the economic climate will change and I can take another holiday home and if that happens I will update my review. www.worldofcoca-cola.com/ General admission costs: Adult (13-64 yrs) - $15.00 Toddler (0-2 yrs) - Free with adult ticket purchase Youth (3-12 yrs) - $10.00 Senior (65 yrs+) - $13.00 I had told my family for years of how I used to get off the bus and walk through Underground Atlanta with my friends. Underground Atlanta is a trendy shopping strip with old style sweet shops, clothing outlets, clubs and restaurants built into "city beneath the streets". To try and explain this one best ... during the 1920's, construction...

"Follow me through these doors ma'am..."

Advantages: connect to a lot of places
Disadvantages: IMMIGRATION, rude staff

...I frequently travel to Arizona and although I prefer to opt for American Airlines as my airmiles are stacking up, generally go for the cheapest option or whatever will get me to my destination at a reasonable hour. So in December I flew with Delta via Atlanta. This review may seem biased and I really don't know too much about the facilities at the airport as I wasn't there long, but I thought I'd share my bad experiences with staff, etc. I know other people reviewing here have had pretty good experiences, albiet several years ago so maybe things have changed, but as you'll read, my journey was pretty traumatic! My stopover time was around three hours but arriving late I was only left with about two and a half. I have been flying to the United States at least three times a year for the past five or so years, and so have obviously been...

Review of Atlanta, USA (ATL)

Snooz'n USA

Advantages: Spotting landmarks, controls do the job
Disadvantages: Poor collisions physics, cornering troubles, infinite continues

...The N64 limitations meant Midway were never going to come close to producing a perfect port of the arcade checkpoint racer, Cruis'n USA, but to rub asphalt into the wounds, the title would be censored by Nintendo (at the least animals were removed), whilst bloody fighting games Mortal Kombat Trilogy and Killer Instinct Gold avoided being butchered... Speaking of which, the frame rate gets rather choppy when driving through detailed surroundings, such as downtown San Francisco - this is also the section where the external views can be blocked, albeit partially and briefly, by cars behind. There are direction signs in Cruis'n USA but nothing to tell how tight an upcoming turn is - there is a radar for CPU presence, but no map present so you never know until too late, and traffic is sure to come blind as well. The analog stick works well...

TomTom USA/Canada Maps Add-On

Advantages: Helps guide you around other countries. Easy to install
Disadvantages: None as yet

...TomTom Map of the USA and Canada Maps TomTom Maps are a 2gb SD card with route maps stored on them that are made to work with the TomTom satellite navigation system. They originally come with UK/Europe maps so these are a brilliant upgrade if you are considering taking your car abroad or hiring a car and driving over there. These are a lot easier than using a standard map when you are visiting another country and make getting around easy. We have just bought one of these as we are planning a trip to the USA and decided one of these would be useful. I have never been abroad so certainly wont know my way around. It was very easy to install onto the TomTom. We also decided the points of interest feature would be really useful as we use the UK based one on our current maps a lot. It has lots of features that include...

Review of TomTom Map of the USA and Canada Maps

A Northerner In The Deep South

Advantages: Great climate, well laid out city, stuff to see and do all year round
Disadvantages: Not the busiest city in terms of museums to see and places to visit

...Cheap flights and the promise of all-you-can-drink Coca Cola lured me to Atlanta, and while not necessarily the best 2 reasons to visit a place, my trip turned out to be good. Georgia is one of the southern states, and Atlanta a southern city in such a state. This means 2 things: hot summer weather, and laid back, friendly natives. While you can't often sum up an entire city's climate or population in such a way, it definitely seemed true here. I flew into Atlanta, crossed the airport and hopped aboard one of their overland / underground MARTA trains. Within minutes I was entering the center, and less than a quarter of an hour later I had crossed the city and was making my way to the High Museum of Art. This reminded me of a cross between the Guggenheim and the British Museum - funny shaped "artistic" architecture, lots of Ancient...

Review of Atlanta

http://www.usa-by-rail.com

Advantages: Lots of great information and tips
Disadvantages: None

...I visited the USA this summer and travelled around most of the country by train, which was really enjoyable and inexpensive and made it possible to see many places that are otherwise more of a problem to visit (such as the Rocky Mountains, the Grand Canyon and desert country). US train travel is quite different to anything I've encountered anywhere else so it was essential to have John Pitt's guidebook USA by Rail guidebook to help me find my way around. A new edition has recently been published so it's bang up to date with all the latest trains (including Amtrak's superb high-speed Acela, capable of 150 mph) and has route guides for all long-distance trains in the States and Canada. The associated USA by Rail website (http://www.usa-by-rail.com) has lots of useful free information, including rail pass prices, route details, travel...
