Casio Pro Trek

Advantages: A lot of functions and very durable.
Disadvantages: Not very good looking for a every day watch.

...In my opinion the Casio Pro Trek is a must if you go into the mountain. The function are really useful especially the altimeter and the compass. The range of the altimeter is incredible. It can go from minus seven hundred meters up to ten thousand meters. And this is not everything. You could also measure the temperature is invaluable if are camping in the mountain and need to decide what the actual weather is. Another useful function for climbers is the barometer because one can easily follow the changes in the pressure while climbing the top of the mountain. The watch itself is really durable and one could hardly break the watch. If you are a fan of trekking then this watch is for you....

Trek...... This is fast

Advantages: fast, light, high spec for cheap price
Disadvantages: None

...be increased quite significantly to get anything that would last. I spent hours researching, joining forums (I highly recommend Bike Radar) etc in order to find the ideal bike in my budget. Whilst taking my trusty steed of a mountain bike to Pauls Cycles in Dereham I thought that I'd better have a quick look at the small selection of racers in the shop. It was there I saw it?? The Trek 1200 in black and red. I knew the Trek name and knew that they were generally a good, quality brand. That was it though. The price was £799 which was way over my budget, but because it was a 2006 model I could have something knocked off it. The bike was described as 'shop soiled' since it had fallen over and had a tiny scratch on the frame. If the bloke hadn't told me this I would never have noticed it despite looking over the bike thoroughly...

Review of Trek 1200

Trek Returns!

Advantages: All the original cast return.
Disadvantages: Can be slow in parts.

...After the surprise cancellation of Star Trek in 1969 whilst it was in it's third season, the opportunity to resurrect Star Trek, following the more recent success of a certain science fiction film called Star Wars, was hard to resist. Paramount had a dilemma, how could they bring back the series in such a way that the audiences would take to this. The answer was simple, a follow on series called Star Trek: Phase II. Production designs were drawn up, scripts written, new sets were built and the original cast were reunited, well nearly all of them as Leonard Nimoy had originally refused to appear as Spock. At the eleventh hour, Paramount decided that the focus should not be a TV series but a big budget film that could rival Star Wars. This allowed all the cast including Nimoy as Spock to once again take their places on board the newly...

Review of Star Trek - The Motion Picture (DVD)

Star Trek: Massively Overrated

Advantages: Swift plot development; suitable for nearly all ages.
Disadvantages: Terrible plot; unconvincing characters; indifferent acting.

...Among the first of this year?s summer blockbusters has been J J Abram?s new Star Trek movie, which has been widely regarded as having successfully brought this iconic franchise into a new century and to a new generation. The reviews have been overwhelmingly positive ? Ann Hornaday in the Washington Post wrote a prayer of thanks to the ?Lord of Star Trek? for a movie that ?has miraculously resurrected a wheezing but beloved and still relevant franchise?; the Daily Mail salutes ?the most outstanding prequel of all time?; and the Times celebrates ?a dazzling and beautiful rebirth? of Star Trek. The reviewers on Ciao so far give the film a full 5 stars, and the Internet Movie Database (IMDb) gives it 8.4/10 from over 75,000 ratings. Against this tidal wave of enthusiasm stands me. I don?t even have a sidekick to help me. I must alone...

Casio Calculator

Advantages: Good Price, Does that it says it will, Solar powered
Disadvantages: None that i can think of

...I bought this calculator at my local woolworths as i was after a scientific calculator and one that was cheap(i paid under £10 for this one which seemed a good price). The calculator is made by Casio which are a well known brand for making anything from calculators to TV's . The dimensions are 84x155x12mm and it is a light too which is a bonus. The keys are large enough for most people and all the writing is clear on and above the keys. This scientific calculator with has 249 functions (164 scientific functions) - including statistic functions. It is primarily aimed at secondary school student but i reckon it will be fine for almost any function unless you need the functions of a graphic calculator It is solar powered so it doesn't require any batteries in order to function however as with all solar powered products,you just...

Review of Casio FX 85 ES

A New Beginning, A New Future?The New Star Trek

Advantages: 127 mins of sheer warp speed adventure. The best Star Trek ever an outstanding movie
Disadvantages: Not enough of it you want more

...Someone told me the other day that ?People who like Star Trek are nerds!? The ensuing conversation brought up words like geek, weird, odd and resulting in my colleagues announcing that I am on another planet; with a black hole for a brain. It really gets on my goat when a handful of tactless people make those daft sorts of comments. A Facebook contact cheered me up saying ?It?s true...but being a nerd, geek or weird is something to be proud of! Who would want to be a dim, colourless, corporate drone?? I agree therefore I will stand up proudly and say, ?I AM A NERD AND? I LIKE STAR TREK? I, like millions of other people. Don?t get me wrong, I am not one of those fans who swat up on the techno-babble or know specific dimensions and details, I don?t dress up as my favourite character. I have never been to a convention although I did...

Review of Star Trek

Star Trek - Living long and still prospering

Advantages: None
Disadvantages: None

...Very few things in life can remind us of that feeling of excitement that is an integral part of childhood, but this week one of them can back into my life at Warp Factor 11. I had no time to raise shields or go to Red Alert, instead I was left with my face set to stunned? oh yes, I became a little boy again as I sat in my cinema seat and waited for J.J. Abrams' rebooted Star Trek to begin trying to recall the last time my body had tingled with so much anticipation. Over the past few years I have written about my passion for the Star Trek franchise in all of its many guises, so my childish excitement at the first Trek film in seven years and the first following Captain Kirk's crew in 18 years can be of no surprise to regular readers. However, the question now is whether the new film left my expectations exhilarated like a week on Risa...

Trev Tries Trek

Advantages: Good re-introduction to road bikes
Disadvantages: expense and pedals

...daughter finished her Istanbul to London lone cycle, she began planning an idiotic cycle around the coastline of India. Once that plan came to fruition at the start of this year, it was clear that any hint she gave of future cycling plans, should be taken seriously. So the planning has begun for her solo circumnavigation of the world by pedal power on land and sea, in world record time! Preparation for that requires some quick spins - so Lands End - John O'Groats and Belfast - Dublin are being suggested. Clearly, Dad needed a bike to keep her company. 2 The Frightening Choice Once a bike was a bike was a bike. Now there is a frightening choice of road bikes plus hybrids, plus tourers, plus mtbs and urban ones too. Since dear daughter has such vast experience of bikes, her advice led me in the general direction of the Trek brand...
