Didn't convert me!

Advantages: Cute packaging, practical, easy to apply on the go
Disadvantages: No staying power

...On my quest to find the perfect blusher this was another one that came highly recommended from lots of friends and various celebs in beauty magazines. Stila's Convertible Colour is a multi-use make-up item, designed to use either on the cheeks or on the lips, and is a cream based product rather than the traditional powder or liquid cheek stains. The Good This comes in an adorable coloured metallic compact, about 6cm in diameter, with the lid embossed with the Stila logo and lots of pretty flower, and has a mirror inside the lid. Each compact contains 4.5g of the product. I love the packaging with these - really convenient to carry round to be applied on the go - the mirror means this is easy to do and the product is applied with your fingers so no need to be carrying round a brush with you. So far so good! These come in 12...

HOW SENSIBLE CAN A CONVERTIBLE GET?

Advantages: Weather Proof. Engine. Fuel Economy. Style. Interior Space.
Disadvantages: Purchase Price.

...Please note that the photograph inserted by Ciao at the top of this page is NOT the car of the title - it is the very different last model, soft roof BMW 3-Series. I have published pictures of the latest model - that is, the car reviewed and which the title refers to. WHAT IS IT? The BMW 320d SE is a clever folding metal roof version of BMW's ever popular 3-Series. Particularly interesting in this case is that roof up, the styling is barely distinguishable from the conventional 3-Series Coupe model. The 3-Series has always been one of the more spacious, four seater convertibles, the folding metal roof does not change this, at 4.58 metres long and 1.985 wide, it is identical in size to Coupe model. WHICH SPECIFIC MODEL? The model reviewed here is the new four cylinder, 177bhp 320 diesel, in non-sporting SE trim. This...

This one will help you convert ...

Advantages: User friendly and does what it says on the tin
Disadvantages: none really

...Prism video converter is one of the programs from NCH software and as the title says, it converts video formats from almost anything to anything?. This brilliant little video converter can be found at www.nchsoftware.com/prism or even www.download.com where you can download a trial version of this, or even the prism plus, to see how you like it (both trials run for 14 days then you lose the ability to convert to certain formats)? then, if you like it you can purchase the program for around £30.00 (depending on any offers at the time)? you will be directed to the website once the trial period ends? SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS Windows 98/2000/XP/2003 and Vista Plus Mac OS X 10.4 or later WHAT DOES IT CONVERT avi, wmv,asf,mpg,3gp,mp4,mov and flv? HOW TO USE IT Once you've opened the program you simply click...

The Cash Converters

Advantages: Easy Conversion, Easy to use
Disadvantages: Not much else to the site

...When you shop online as much as I do then you need to know what you?re paying. Obviously UK sites have the price plain and simple. However there is more money to be saved by buying abroad. Exchanges rates always differ from day to day so you always need a quick and easy conversion to find out whether that DVD you?re buying from the USA is actually cheaper. With this in mind I always use the XE currency converter website. One of the reasons is that it?s updated every few minutes to cope with any sudden market changes. But the main reason is that its web address is incredibly easy to remember. Anyone who can?t remember XE.com will probably have goldfish style memory. The site itself is simple and well laid out. All you have to do is enter the amount you?re going to need converting. You then select the conversion you want from a drop...

Get Converted! Sigma EX 1.4x APO Converter

Advantages: Hugely versatile. Compact. Light. Inexpensive. High quality.
Disadvantages: None!

...Converters often get bad press. Perhaps they deserved it about 20 years ago but modern ones are really much better than those early models. The Sigma EX 1.4x APO Converter is an excellent and extremely versatile little accessory capable of extending the range and usefulness of many lenses and in my opinion, a valuable and essential addition to the kit bag. It is of EX designation which in Sigma terminology means 'Excellence' and indicates that it is considered to be within the top quality professional range of Sigma lens products. It has the familiar smooth black 'crinkle' finished associated with the EX range and both looks and feels very good quality. It is extremely compact and will take up very little room in the outfit bag. It would be churlish to leave it at home! I purchased my example over a year ago and it is now...

Stila Convertible Color

Advantages: A great quality product, useful if you're travelling
Disadvantages: Quite expensive

...Stila's Convertible Color is a 'two in one' cream product that can be worn on the cheeks and lips. At the moment, it is available in around 11 shades which include pinks, peaches and brown tones. The Convertible Color comes in the prettiest circular plastic compact (around 6cm across, and just over 1cm in depth). The colour of the compact depends on the shade of the cream product inside, but the lid of each compact says " Stila Convertible Color" and has pretty flower drawings scattered around in the same colour as the compact. Each Convertible Color compact contains 4.25g of product. Stila's Convertible Colour really is a great product for when you are on the go. Firstly, because it can be used on the cheeks and lips, it saves space in your make-up bag. Secondly, when you open the compact you will find that the inside of the lid...

Cash Converters For Easy Buying & Selling

Advantages: Sell your unwanted goods, different stock on a weekly basis
Disadvantages: Prices aren't always great

...I am personally very impressed with Cash Converters, they frankly astound me. Why? not because of their amazing customer service, their bargain products, their diverse product range or well kept shops; But by the fact that they manage to sell awful products at seemably ridiculous prices. It never ceases to amaze me how they manage to sell outdated second hand phones for near enough the same price as you can get them new online. And secondhand Playstation games at the same price as you can get the game on Platinum version brand new. But nevertheless it is an interesting shop to go into when you've got time. There's always a good range of stock. Most of the stuff is overpriced, but the shopowners know very little about the real value of a lot of goods, so there are occassional bargains to be had. Selling experience: I went into Cash...

Review of Cash Converters (Shop)

Cash Converters are terrible...

Advantages: (Very little) cash in a jiffy
Disadvantages: Useless staff, they rip you off, lose things

...Some of you may have seen a shop around in the UK called Cash Converters and I'm writing to warn you about it. Basically, it is just a glorified pawn shop. The idea is simple. You have something you don't use, but you still want but you also need some cash pronto. You take said item to shop and they give you a paltry sum and then in 30days or sooner you but it back for the price plus 30%. If you don't then they can sell it. This store however either a)rip you off or b)lose your goods. My first experience was when I received a number of 486 machines with monitors, keyboards and mice which I didn't have a use for. Most of them I found new homes for, but the last two I couldn't so I decided to sell them to Cash Converters just to free up some space really, and to save myself the hassle of private ads. Now I didn't want a lot...

900 Convertible non-turbo

Advantages: Safe, Strong, Reliable, Quirky looks, Great drivers car
Disadvantages: Sedate performance, Occasional vandals target

...Have owned my 900i convertible for four years. It's a good looking, but very quirky car, and the looks are not for everyone, but even at 19 years old still turns heads with the roof down. At nearly 2 tonnes these cars are built like tanks and are a high quality machine, though some interior parts feel cheaper than you would expect. Reliability has been excellent. I have no AA/RAC cover, and the car has never once let me down. These cars need to be serviced regularly however, probably every 6000 miles is best., I have always used indepedent garages though now do most of it myself. The cars are easy and intuitive to work on. Main dealer servicing is expensive at around £120 per hour in London, and I have found the dealers 'dis-interested'; possibly keener to work on the GM 900,9-3,9-5. It's probably best to line up a decent garage...

CONVERTED

Advantages: Beaver-Slick Gameplay to Match the Presentation
Disadvantages: Still Room for Improvement

...'s how much the power balance has shifted. I wrote about the rot setting into PES 6 two years back on Ciao, and remember getting some feedback suggesting that I'd called it wrong. Well hear me now: Fifa is the better game, and not just by a slender margin. Forget any preconceptions you have of the series - this is the real deal - a marriage of all that was good about old Fifa and most of what we wanted it to become. The Fifa vs. PES debate for now is dead; EA have won the race to fix their problems first. I tip my hat. You've (finally) converted me....
