Advantages: great place to visit Disadvantages: getting around is not so easy
...The 'plain of jars' is one of the must sees in Asia - similar to Stonehenge and the figures on the Easter Island nobody knows the origins of these small to big stone jars.
They are located close to Phonsavan in the north-east of Laos close to the vietnamese border. Phonsavan is easily accessible from all major cities. You can go by local bus or by minibus - Local bus from Luang Prabang was 50000kip and the minibus was 85000kip.
There are 3 jar-sites whereby Site was is the most easily reachable. You have 3 ways to visit the sites:
- by tour: every GH will offer you tours. Expect to pay 80000 for Site 1 and 150000 for all 3 Sites. I found that the tour was overly rushed and you didn't have enough time to see this impressive place.
- go with a TukTuk: Find a TukTuk driver to take you. It will be a lot cheaper than with the tour and you...

Review of Plain of Jars (Laos)
Advantages: Free lighting and a lovely glow. Disadvantages: Recharging difficult in cloudy weather and indoors not as successful as outdoors.
...Recently when my husband turned 50 he received a present from my daughter called a Sun Jar. My youngest daughter is a great eco warrior and always chooses gifts with a saving the planet theme in mind.
These can be purchased from Amazon at around the £15 mark, and I think they make a great present. I have also seen them on many other websites including my favourite Ethical Superstore at www.ethicalsuperstore.com.
The Sun Jar is basically a solar powered lamp which you place on a sunny windowsill during the day or outside, and at night the jar automatically lights up. The way it works is that there is a solar power cell which recharges the battery to produce an energy efficient LED light.
As the jar is opaque the light is diffused by the frosted glass, so the glow of the light gives a warm natural tone. The lamp is made in the shape...

Review of Suck UK Sun Jar
Advantages: Honest, poignant, truthful ending Disadvantages: The sense of hopelessness - not very encouraging if you're suffering from depression yourself
...I think that this is the kind of novel that takes on a new kind of dimension if you can personally relate to it. Don't get me wrong: you will still enjoy this story if you've never had the misfortune to suffer from depression, but being able to empathise with the main character probably makes you think of it in a different way. Plath's analogy of the bell jar (that you're stewing in your own fetid air) was particularly poignant to me.
Esther is an academically-gifted young woman who doesn't know exactly what she wants from life. At one point, she compares herself to someone sitting in a fig tree and each fig representing a different life option, but by choosing one fig she has to lose the others. She finds it so hard to decide which one to take that they fall off the tree before she has a chance. She finds herself stifled by her own...
Advantages: Light, a glow to the skin Disadvantages: Expensive
...off label which has directions and ingredients written on the inside. On the top part of the label is:
Hope in a Jar Therapeutic moisturizer original formula for all skin types.
MY OPINION
I have fell in love with this moisturizer, it is perfect for my skin, it's nice and light unlike other moisturizers I have tried for my very dry skin. I find most moisturizers for dry skin either leave my skin very itchy or the moisturizer is so thick and doesn't sink in and a terrible base for make up. This is the complete opposite, it sinks in whilst I massage it into my skin and the lightness of it means I hardly use any. The cream is silky soft and has a single cream consistency. It takes me about 3 months to use a pot and that morning and night and some times in the summer I put it on just to freshen up. My make up sits really well...
...This has to be one of the most annoying products on earth!
Philosophy - hard-to-resist little blurb on the jar, kind and caring website, charity schemes...
But, I actually own this stuff, and to be perfectly honest, I don\'t know whether I love it or hate it; I don't think it's actually doing anything for my skin, but what I DO know is that I WANT TO KEEP USING IT.
Damn you philosophy!
Okay, okay, enough with my ranting and raving. Seriously though, the Hope product is one moisturiser that has been hyped-up beyond belief. Like its name states, it comes in a jar and, also like its description states, is supposed to give you hope to "reduce the appearance of wrinkles, skin discoloration, rough texture and dehydration". That's all well and good: what I want to know is why my skin looks almost the same after four months of use...
Advantages: Good selection, interesting textures for babies, price. Disadvantages: Can't think of any!!!
...With my first boy, I never gave him a jar of baby food. Everything was made from scratch, except for breakfast cereals which was shop bought.
Since my second son has been born, I have been using baby jars regularly. I have found them to be more convinient then cooking up batches of veg, which I started doing at first, but because he is such a hungry baby I was always running back to the supermarket buying more!
At first I only got him a well known organic range. However I found that there wasn't much of a selection, and also found them to be quite soupy. So I decided to give Cow and Gate jars a go, and I am very impressed.
The selection is fantastic, and all the meals are perfecly balanced. The colour coded lids show you what kind of meal is in the jar, for example, meat based, vegetable etc.
My little boy is now 10 months...
Advantages: Interesting foreign film Disadvantages: Subtitles
...Whenever you watch a Scandinavian movie they are usually somewhat familiar in setting, the panoramas as bleak as the lonely and aloof central characters, the narrative somewhat gothic and foreboding, Jar City no exception. If you think of the original Insomnia, and films like Breaking the Waves and Smillas Sense of Snow, then it's that kind of vibe. The North Europeans do this stuff well and these films are always atmospheric and interesting, the title alone enough to have you scratching your chin with intrigue. Those who rented it thinking it was a Rastafarian movie set in Jamaica will be sadly disappointed. Jar City is not your mainstream movie in anyway.
Set in the enigmatic and volcanic land of Iceland, this spooky piece mixes a bit of The Whicker Man with some Straw Dogs, sprinkled with that sleepless agitation of Insomnia...

Review of Jar City (DVD)
...I had seen this product on QVC a few times, and really wanted to try it, but could never quite justify the price. I then saw that QVC were selling a kit which contained five different Philosophy products including a half size of this Hope in a Jar cream for about £25 so decided to treat myself to it.
There seemed to be a lot of hype around this cream. When Oprah was accused of having a facelift, she apparently went on TV and said that it wasn't surgery, it was Hope in a Jar. Every time I saw this on QVC, I would fall for they marvellous praise that they gave this cream - 'it's make-up optional - you'll look so good you can go without make-up', 'all the celebrities use it' etc... Not only that, but I think I convinced myself that if it cost that much then it must be fabulous, otherwise people wouldn't buy it.
Anyway, onto...
Advantages: Wonderfully written with such fluidity and authencity with her own experiences Disadvantages: It ended too soon!
...The Bell Jar.
This was the only novel that Plath published, which she did under a pseudonym back in the 60's. She was an excellent poet but is largely known for her largely-autobiographical novel.
Her real-life persona in the book is Esther Greenwood; a woman in the 60s who has won a contest and is spending the summer at a New York magazine; she has many inner conflicts within herself, she increasingly finds herself suffocating in a bell jar of depression and cynicism, with a distorted view on the world and being unable to communicate effectively out of the jar. This gets too much for her and she ends up being hospitalised.
The book is intensely emotional as I knew Plath was talking about her own mental issues that she had in this book. She describes the depression as if it was a never-ending pit of cynicism and true despair that...
Advantages: Original, vocal-driven, catchy, deep, warrants repeated plays Disadvantages: A weak track or two
... Overview
Having sold over 6 million records, won three GRAMMYs and headlined thousands of shows and festivals, it is incredible that Jars of Clay have yet to make it big here in the UK. Billed as "folk rock", Jars of Clay comprises Charlie Lowell (keyboards), Dan Heseltine (vocals), Matt Odmark (rhythm guitars) and Stephen Mason (lead guitars) who met and formed the group whilst studying together at Greenville College in Illinois. Oddly, Jars of Clay lack a permanent drummer or bassist, instead relying on a selection of "ringers" for recordings and performances.
The name Jars of Clay is taken from 2 Corinthians 4:7 which says But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us.
Good Monsters is the eighth album by Jars of Clay and their first ever "rock" record...
