Baltimore City

Advantages: Great expensive food,area are easy to access
Disadvantages: Some areas are dangerous

...location Baltimore is a small city located in the state of Maryland in the north east part of the United States.It is close to the Washington DC metropolitan area and from Silver Spring MD it is about a 45 minute drive.If you are arriving by air there is BWI(Baltimore Washington International Airport)which would get you close to the city. Getting around The city has a metro bus service that would get you into most places but you need to know the bus schedule.You can try taking a cab but cab fares are expensive in most US cities and Baltimore is not an exception.If you can get hold of a car then you would be in great shape.Parking can be a challenge so be very careful where you place your car.You can get paid parking( especially when there are public events) for about $5-6 for the whole day.

Review of Baltimore

Baltimore

Advantages:
Disadvantages:

...Baltimore is, what I believe, a super company, well placed to gain optimum growth from the internet revolution. Internet traffic is doubling evry 100 days, and with and increasing number of transcations occuring, baltimore's e-security products will no doubt be in great demand. The company, based in Ireland, has just secured a large deal with Visa and recent results have just shown that the company is in healthy shape and well on the way to profitability. However, investing in this stock is a roller coaster ride. By its nature and the sector, it is highly volatile and I would recommend a long term (1 year plus ) outlook....

"My Tooth Ith Looth"

Advantages: Some stuff to do
Disadvantages: Attitude of locals and general town layout

...Baltimore is not an exotic place. It?s not the type of place most people would cross an ocean or even a country to visit. It is, however, the place I?m living at the moment and so, for now, it is home. I chose the job rather than the location, and I?m loving the fact that at the moment they are paying me handsomely to sit at my desk and write all day, but Baltimore itself is still taking some getting used to. For those who don?t know (and until I got this job I fell into that group), Baltimore is a city in Maryland, and Maryland is a state on the east coast of the United States, surrounded by Delaware (as Elle Woods would say: ?No sales tax!?), Virginia, Pennsylvania and Washington D.C. Baltimore is perhaps the most well known place in the state, though Annapolis, some distance to the south, is the state capital. Chesapeake bay...

Balti-less

Advantages: erm... Inner Harbor with good aquarium?
Disadvantages: See above, numerous

...If I had to choose anywhere in the US to go, it wouldn't be here. I had to go to Baltimore for work to present at a conference, otherwise I wouldn't have gone. The conference was from 6-11 May and I'd planned for a couple of days in DC, so this is based on my experiences in Baltimore. I reached Baltimore's Mount Vernon district (to the north of the Inner Harbor, the touristy part) via taxi from the airport. I'd gone through some rather rought looking areas to get there. The area I was in seemed okay and after unpacking, I'd headed out to get some drinks as I was very dehyrated. I believe I then saw the real Baltimore. Nicknamed 'Charm City', I didn't see much in the way of charm but rather a lot in the way of racism. There were advertisements on the street for resturaunts and scrawled over them was "Smile! White is...

You Know What He Wants To Be, So Let Him

Advantages: Lots of bangers
Disadvantages: Not all great track choices

...In September 2009 DJ 4Five brought ?So Successful? as an unofficial mixtape featuring the works of the Canadian rapper and singer Drake. It features a range of tunes that he has participated in, as both the main performer and also as a featured guest in order to show the sort of diversity that he offers as a recording artist. 1. ?Intro? 2. ?Successful? With this, he drops into one of the artist?s big singles as he is seen to work with two names who are known to associate heavy with him as he gets ATL?s bad boy R&B singer Trey Songz joining him, as they do things on some cold synth and deep snares to pull out the energy within it as he talks of his game plan. It is a killer tune and one that seems to stand out hugely for the atmosphere that it creates as it changes everything up. **Five Stars** 3. ?Killers? This was an unexpected...

Review of So Successful - Drake

Must It Be So Blu?

Advantages: Highly varied
Disadvantages: Inconsistent

...The Rhode Island-raised R&B singer Blu Cantrell released ?So Blu? as her debut album back in 2001. It saw her break through in a way which would allow her to really blow up in popularity for her second album when her most well-known song ?Breathe? in collaboration with Sean Paul came out in 2003. 1. ?Waste My Time? Getting the album underway, this song has her breaking into some fly material which sees her working on beats form Tricky Stewart. The way in which it is composed is very representative of the sound of the time (and what had come through from 1998 up to this year) and so it showed that although she wasn?t doing anything new, she was prepared t do what the R&B fans wanted to hear at that particular time. **Four Stars** 2. ?Hit ?em Up Style? This was really the song which launched her into fame and it really deserved...

Miss Baltimore Crabs

Advantages: Great song and dance numbers performed by an enthusiastic cast.
Disadvantages: A lack of character development and emotional depth.

...and the original John Waters' film of the same name. His affection for the source material even goes so far as casting Waters as the local flasher in the "Good Morning Baltimore" number. His visuals are bright and crisp, but the world he's portraying isn't too Hollywood - there are grimy streets, dark corners and poverty to be seen. The film doesn't focus as much on the egalitarian message of the original, instead foregrounding the joyful song and dance numbers. But this is where the director's talents lie. Every sequence is slickly choreographed but isn't beholden to the musical's stage origins. It makes the most of locations so it never feels like the movie is stuck on a soundstage. He clearly adores his cast, allowing them all the chance to shine and his affection is infectious. All of them are clearly having a ball, throwing themselves into...

Oh So Fishy

Advantages: My cats love it
Disadvantages: It stinks!

...I have 3 cats - 1 is 14, 1 is 6, and 1 is just over a year old. All of them are fussy little things and I have to change their food on a regular basis to keep them happy because they quickly get bored of the same ones, and also the 14 year old has a tendancy to throw up with some brands of food but not others, so I have to be careful what I give him. The only food I've found so far that they all like all of the time is Whiskas Oh So Fishy pouches. They come in a pack of 12 85g pouches for around £4. Each pouch contains one meal for one cat, so I can't afford to give them these all the time, but I like to always have some in and give them as an occasional treat or when they decide they don't like their current food. This Fishy selection has 3 tuna, 3 sardine, 3 salmon and 3 cod flavour pouches. They are all made with whole pieces...

Review of Whiskas Oh so... Pouches

So Good so weird

Advantages: Multi-Vitamins, extra Calcium
Disadvantages: Artificial taste, higher price than cow's milk

...I am not usually very keen on modern foodstuff and drinks processed in food laboratory. However, I just could not resist the ?Try me free? offer from So Good that I came across in a supermarket. Okay, why not, all I risk is 19p stamp to send out my claim for money back. Unlike normal soya milk which is made of hulled soya beans, So Good is made from soya protein with added calcium and vitamins. Its maker, So Good International Ltd at Peterborough, tried to make it look and taste like natural dairy milk (You'll probably find them among fresh milk on the shelves). I was not convinced, so, I conducted the following tasting tests:- A cup of fresh coffee with So Good added: Incredibly the taste of soya had taken over the whole cup of coffee. So Good is so good at changing the taste of your beloved coffee! Forget it! A cup of tea...

SO... My Favourite Body Spray!

Advantages: Bargain, smells lovely, nice bottle design
Disadvantages: Runs out too quickly

...SO...? Kiss me Today I thought I would write a review on something I use everyday but haven't yet reviewed. That is, my favourite body spray. SO...? Kiss me. Fragrance with attitude ;) SO... what is it? This bodyspray comes in a tall bottle, I'd say about just under 20cm tall, and an inch round. The background on the bottle is white, and there is a picture of pink lipstick marks on there as well as the name of the body spray; SO...? Kiss me. The lid is pink and the whole bottle design is very girly and pretty. I quite like it. The bottle contains 75mlE. How long this bottle lasts depends on how much of it you use. I always spray loads on, so for me it doesn't last that long. I use it everyday before I go out anywhere, to keep me smelling fresh, gorgeous and [cringe] Kissable! SO... How does it smell...
