Miracle pen!

Advantages: Uses light reflective technology rather than just covering, high quality, it works!
Disadvantages: Price, they test on animals :(

...an equivalent (or better!) highlighter from a cruelty-free company. When Touche Eclat first emerged it was revolutionary, but to be honest now there are so many other light reflecting pens on offer that finding a suitable and cheaper replacement shouldn?t be hard....

An everyday stick pen

Advantages: seems to write well
Disadvantages: none

...I had to write a note today and I used a Steadtler 430m. stick pen. Looking through my stationary drawer and discovered several staedtler stick pens. Steadtler 430 m stick pens are available in Blue, red, black and green ink. These pens are as you can see from the picture have a clear plastic shaft/barrel , This is 13cm long, just less than a cm in diameter. The shaft is a hexagon with 6 straight sides this is good as it mean the pen does not easily roll of the table. You can see the ink through the plastic, its not easy to distinguish the colour from a full pen though.. At one end of the pen is a coloured stopper at the other a strong metal ball point nib. There is a plastic lid which has a clip on it so you can clip it onto the edge of your paper or jacket pocket. This lid is coloured to match the ink. This lid is also...

Review of Staedtler 430 Stick Ball Pen

Write with this stick pen

Advantages: Good for writing that homework
Disadvantages: none

...Its amazing the variety of simple stick pens I have in my stationary draw next to my computer. When tidying up the other day I came across some Papermate stick 2020 pens. This ball point pen is available in red, blue, black and green, they are available in either a fine or medium nib. The fine one giving a line 0.3 mm width, the medium line 0.4 mm width. These pens have an outer casing of the same colour as the ink inside you can not see how much ink is left through the pen. The lid which has a moulded clip to hook the pen on a paper or onto your jacket pocket is the same colour. These pens measure 14.1/2 cm. The barrel of these pens is circular and they easily roll onto the floor of your desk. The colour of the ink is a good bold colour. They write well. I have used many. The pen is easy enough to hold and use, rolls...

Review of Paper Mate 2020 Stick Ball Pen

Invisible? So was the acting...

Advantages: Possesses loads of potential.
Disadvantages: Terrible acting and character developement.

...-of-control teenager who thinks he crossed her, Nick experiences an out-of-body moment that will last only as long as his body continues to live. Unable to communicate with anyone, he wanders listlessly at first, not knowing exactly what has happened to him... but when he realizes that he isn't dead, time starts ticking away and he must attempt to be found before it's too late. Unfortunately, his attempts at being seen or heard fail, and his situation appears hopeless - until he realises that the girl who attempted to kill him can hear him. She is his only hope... 'The Invisible', from the very start, possesses loads of potential - however, the writers, director and actors have totally destroyed what could have been an extremely entertaining movie. First of all, Margarita Levieva, who plays Annie Newton, is possibly the worst actress I have ever...

Review of Arthur And The Invisibles (DVD)

How invisible can one get?

Advantages: Well written, educational, inspiring, funny
Disadvantages: Can be rather depressing

...Another one of my problems with books is that the ones I tend to pick up are the stupidly depressing ones, 'A Boy Named It', 'Sickened', 'Don't Tell Mummy', the list is endless?and one of the more recent ones is this one - 'The Invisible Girl'. To give credit it is written in such a way that it doesn't seem depressing a lot of the time, but you cannot say that the basic story is in any way, shape or form a happy one. It is not however the same as the books mentioned above, because it is not written by the main person who the book is about, it cannot be said to be a quick buck for someone jumping on the gravy train and writing about their traumatic past. The book is written by Debbie Barham's father, and the reason for this alone is simple, the book starts with Debbie's death from anorexia on Easter Monday 2003. Boring Details...

Review of The Invisible Girl - Peter Barham

Berol Handwriting Pen and Childhood Memories!

Advantages: See Review
Disadvantages: See Review

...I am now nearly 18 years old and I first picked up this model of pen was I about 7 years old. I remember the pride when I was given the handwriting pen by my primary school teacher- those who demonstrated good hand writing would be awarded a pen at the end of term and allowed to write with this for work instead of just a standard pencil. And to this day I have one in my pencil case- obviously not the original.. but they do last a fairly long time and don't tend to dry out unless you leave the cap off constantly. They are washable ink which means that you can get it off clothes (which I still manage to mess now...) and off your fingers if you have a strange writing style like mine! They are fairly cheap as I remember- usually they come in sets of 2 which are about £2 so a quid each for these durable pens really isn't bad. (I know that...

Review of Berol Handwriting Pens Dark Blue

The Invisible Bastard.

Advantages: After reading it you can read other, more exciting books! Not by H.G Wells!
Disadvantages: Its just really slow and monotonous, and dry like Jacobs crackers.

...Overview The original tale of the invisible man: A mysterious long-coated spectre strides into a rural English village, an experiment that works all too well, low mutterings about the new stranger in town. Yes its dark, portentuous territory we're in as H.G. wells spins yet another cautionary yarn about the potential dangers of progressive science, as well as his customary delve, deep into the misty depths of the human psyche. Or, a little book about a man that makes himself invisible. And then goes mad. Review We've all seen films about The invisible man or some invisible man or another. At some point or another everyone has wondered what it would be like, such is the degree to which the idea of invisibility has burned itself indellibly into our culture, and it all came from this book. But did you know that the actual invisible man...

Review of The Invisible Man - H. G. Wells

I'm the INVISIBLE WOMAN! (with Dove). . .

Advantages: Very effective, fewer white marks and will moisturise your underarms.
Disadvantages: You have to wait to let it dry!

...of body sprays. Dove . . . Invisible dry (anti white marks) I?ve been using Dove?s products for many years now; there are a very reliable product that does the job perfectly with good affordable prices. Trying to be more creative Dove have introduced a new range of antiperspirant deodorants, changed the typical shape of the bottle and even introduced new fragrances along with the original fragrance. The new range contains silk-dry; go fresh cool water lily; go fresh touch; and a lot more! I used most of them but I was most impressed with Dove invisible dry (anti white marks) for many reasons. Dove?s Invisible Dry Deodorant and their motto: fewer white marks, beautiful results! The bottle The container has changed recently to something more sophisticated, or maybe not depending on how you can see it...

Review of Dove Invisible Dry Anti-White Marks

We all make mistakes! Pilot frixion pen

Advantages: Fully erasable ink, comfortable pen to use
Disadvantages: Takes some getting used to

...My son has recently "gone into pen" at school (very proud mummy!) and he was provided with the classic Berol handwriting pen - the red one with the blue tip (sound familiar?!) but he really couldn't get on with it at all and I can't understand how these have been recommended for a first pen for such a long time; they are quite uncomfortable to hold, the nib is scratchy and the ink does not flow smoothly across the paper - but I'm guessing that they are cheap. After weeks of struggling with it, I went searching for the perfect pen for him and I came across the Pilot Frixion Erasable Rollerball Pen. To be honest, when I read what this pen was supposed to do I didn't really believe it. It claims to be fully erasable using the friction point at the end of the pen; it erases the gel ink purely by heat friction, leaving no debris...

Review of Pilot FriXion Rollerball Pen with Eraser and Rewriter Tip

Arthur and the Invisibles for the Nintendo DS - lots of variety!

Advantages: Lots of variety, good graphics and sound
Disadvantages: Needs multiple copies in multi-player mode, limited long-term interest

...This review is for the Nintendo DS game, Arthur and the Invisibles, developed by Neko Entertainment and published by Atari. This is an action game which is fast paced and primarily involves working through over ninety mini games to progress through the game. The game is a licence of the feature film of the same name, but doesn't really relate very heavily to that film. You can choose between three different gameplay modes, challenge mode, virtual pet simulator or multiplayer mode. The challenge mode involves working through all of the mini games, and the multi-player mode is just that, an opportunity to share the games with others. The virtual pet simulator is really just a side part of the game, and involves looking after a small pet which requires attention and looking after. There isn?t really much to this, it just involves...
