This is how to do it

Advantages: Tried and tested gameplay, excellent mechanics and multiplayer
Disadvantages: graphic update needed, hard for first time multiplayers

...Ok, here we go again. Another call of duty, another release, another year. But how does this one fair? Graphics 8/10. As any of my long time review followers will know, I start with graphics. This game looks fantastic, do not get me wrong. There is so much attention to detail that you can spend a fair chunk of time looking around class rooms, at the scenery, searching shanty towns. The graphics are superb in pretty much all aspects. The reason I only scored it 8/10 is purely because this was also true in the original modern warfare. There are definitely some graphical improvements, but there are a few things knocking about that are beginning to irk me in the call of duty series now. Like door handles. I mean, unless it's a door that you can go through - the door handles are flat, texturless 2d pastes on to the door. The time for this...

Review of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (Xbox 360)

How is this easy?

Advantages: It has some good and easy recipes
Disadvantages: Many of them are not really easy and they need special ingredients

...Gordon Ramsay's Make it Easy In the introduction to his book, Gordon Ramsay claims that his book is aimed at those of us who have busy lives and limited time for cooking, yet he somehow warns us that "the quality of ingredients is paramount to the success of a dish and [he] always source[s] food from top quality producers." Of course, I'm using the word "warns" for a reason that you will discover soon, but let's find out what this book is about. This 256 page book is divided into nine sections: 1. breakfast and brunch 2. great fast food 3. family and friends 4. dinner for two 5. cooking for a crowd 6. summer barbies 7. just for kids 8. bellinis and blinis 9. posh Very conveniently, this cooking book begins with the most important meal of the day, no matter how we try to avoid it; i.e. breakfast which can be brunch as well. What...

How To Survive Losing Your Spouse

Advantages: Deals with the practicalities and emotional issues bereavement brings in bite size chapters
Disadvantages: Whilst this is an excellent self help book, it is probably best for those who are under 50 or so

...Introduction I will preface the review for this book by saying I truly hope none of you ever actually need to buy it. However if you do - I would highly recommend it. "Death...And How to Survive It" is a book written specifically to help people who have lost their spouse or partner. Sadly for me, I had reason to buy this book in March last year when my husband died suddenly. Kate Boydell became a widow in 1998. She was left with two young daughters and her book is a testament to the fact you can suffer loss and still come out the other side. The Book The book is split into two sections, each containing small chapters. This makes it easier to work through at a time when you are struggling just to function. The first part of the book is entitled "Through the Darkness". This deals with the start of your journey - when you...

Review of Death... And How To Survive It - Kate Boydell

A nice result but is it really that easy?

Advantages: excellent colour
Disadvantages: Quite hard to make sure youve applied it to all areas.

...comment on that. I will say that my hair was very light before dying it and it?s covered everything. I am so impressed with the results that I am going to go back to tesco and buy the other two bottles that were reduced (hopefully they are still there!). Not only is my hair a lovely colour but it?s feeling supersoft and the colour has lasted although it has faded a bit. I think you get this with most hair dyes though especially semi permanents. I would highly recommend this dye because it?s so easy to use and I got great results....

Losing a guy is not as easy as it might seem!

Advantages: funny, light and easy viewing
Disadvantages: a bit cringeworthy at times

...to demonstrate how easy it is to lose a guy in ten days by committing all the cardinal sins that women often make at the start of a relationship that ultimately scare the guys away! In order to write thae article though she first has to find a guy and get him to dump her in the allotted timescale. The man she chooses is Benjamin Barry (Matthew McConaughey) but unbeknown to her he is also on a mission. He has been challenged to persuade a woman to fall in love with him in ten days and if he does so he will be able to work on a lucrative advertising account at his work. It does sound very contrived but actually it is very funny. I loved watching Andie do lots of embarrassing things to put Ben off her and her ensuing frustration when nothing seems to put him off. Her exploits include calling him and some of his body parts, embarrasing pet...

Review of How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days (DVD)

Is music as easy as Silence?

Advantages: A couple of complete gems
Disadvantages: Mostly below the standard that the band can do

...To those few who have never heard of Starsailor you're missing out one one of the best Indie rock bands from the indie boom Britain had during the 00's with bands like Arctic Monkeys, Coldplay, Razorlight, Kaiser Chiefs, Fratellis, Franz Ferdinand all being probably more widely known. To those who have heard of Starsailor it'll be no surprise to learn this is album is fantastic from start to end. Starsailor we're formed in the late 1990's originally going by the name of Waterface and were based in the North West of England. In 200 the original 3 members (James Walsh-Vocals, James Stelfox-Bassist and Ben Bryne-Drummer) asked Barry Whitehead to join the band on the keyboard. Whilst unable to find a guitarist Walsh took it on himself to learn the instrument to complete the band. Due to family ties the band the band had managed to sign...

Review of Silence Is Easy - Starsailor

It really is Nice'n easy.

Advantages: Good even multi-tonal hair colour.
Disadvantages: Just the clearing up after.

...I have used Clairol Nice'n easy permanent hair colour for at least 20 years and have been highly satisfied each and every time with the outcome. Having a daughter hairdresser, I can always get a good cut and the only job left for me to do is to hide the ever increasing grey. A spare 30 minutes can usually be found every 5-6 weeks to apply the colour. The range of colours is vast starting at somewhere around No.96 which is the lightest blonde and going through the range to Blue/black. I use 101 which is Natural Baby Blonde and now that Clairol have incorporated blends into the colour to give a multi-tonal look, I feel that my own natural hair colour is in there somewhere.! The complete kit retails for around £4.75, but look out for offers and sometimes they can be ,Buy one Get one free, if you are lucky enough to spot them. The box is...

Review of Clairol Nice 'n Easy

Nice-N Easy It Sure Is!!

Advantages: Perfect coverge & ease of use
Disadvantages: stains your head

...* After Use Conditioner Once out of the box it couldn't be simplier, you mix the colourant and the cream and give them a good old shake to ensure proper mixage (i know mixage isn't a word but I like it). Before you open the top and start to apply make sure to read the instructions and check how long you need to leave it in, also don't forget to wear the gloves. Another thing, they do recommend you test your skin before putting this all over your head, just in case. I have to say the gloves with this dye are great, they are the proper rubber kind that don;t rip easily and not only that, they are lined with a powder making them easy to put on and take off, yet don't dry up your hands. Using this dye is easy, so easy in fact I put it in all by myself (and I have long hair). You start at the roots and work outwards, using less...

What It Is To Succeed

Advantages: Wide range of vocals, good use of intruments, some extremely catchy songs, clever lyrics
Disadvantages: A little 'samey', two unnecessary tracks

..."What It Is To Burn" is Finch's first major release, and it does not disappoint. Described as a "post-hardcore" band, Finch brought a unique style of rock music to the masses, a style which has been used over and over again since by numberous bands. Right from the opening track, "New Beginnings", you can tell that this band have something different about them. The lengthy, gripping intro is perfect for an opening track; it acts as a real introduction to the album. Instantly after, everything else comes into play; powerful drumming and swirling guitar riffs are all here, and a truimphant opening song is upon you. So far, so good. The second track, "Letters To You" was the first single released from the album, probably due to it's catchy pop-rock chorus, amongst other things. An impressive, technical song, where the guitar lines seem...
